I would ban television.I grew up a couch potato. looking back, it seems I hardly read anything else at all—I watched TV almost seven hours a day.There are so many good reasons for you to be a couch potato. Television is good before-breakfast entertainment. Television is good after-school entertainment. Television is good before-bed entertainment. Everybody watches it, so you have to watch it too in order to talk about it with friends. Otherwise you cannot say a word,which makes you look like an idiot.But when I stopped watching television completely several months ago, I found that I had become a more reflective person, simply because I had more time to think. Television had stopped stuffing its ideas into my head. I was thinking of my childhood,and to my disappointment, I found that it could be summed up in one sentence: “I watched a lot of TV .” And I wasted too much of my youth that I cannot have back. I will never be more imaginative than I was in my childhood.Now I can totally resist the temptation of TV no matter how marvelous the programs are, and I’m entering into a new stage of life. In the meantime, I’d hope that all couch potatoes would turn off their TV . But I am afraid that with more and more attractive TV programs, I’m not going to be the last person in this country to idle away the best years of life sitting passively in front of a television6. A couch potato is someone who________.A. spends much time sitting and watching TVB. plants potatoC. plants potato in the couchD. sits in a couch eating potato7. People watch TV so much because________.A. television is good before breakfast entertainmentB. television is good after-school entertainmentC. television is good before-bed entertainmentD. All of the above8. According to the passage, people will________ if they stop watching TV .A. fill themselves with ideas on TVB. be more lazy and relaxed 默默学C. have more time to thinkD. not look back at their childhood9. Which of the following is NOT true of the author?A. The author had watched television a lotB. The author had wasted too much of his youthC. The author will never be more imaginative than he was in his childhoodD. The author is determined to go on watching television10. The phrase “idle away”(Para 5) probably means”_________”.A. spend time in a different wayB. spend time in a relaxed way doing nothingC. enter a new stageD. watch televisionPassage ThreeIf we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago ，we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example ，we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4，000 years ago ，because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa ， because they had not learned to write.Sometimes ， of course ， even if the people cannot write ，they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and after songs and dances and stories havebeen made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But if there are no written records ， such spoken stories are often very helpful.11. Which of the following is NOT suggested in the passage?A. Written history is more reliableB. Written records play an important role in learning about historyC. A. written account of our daily activities helps to answer many questionsD. Where there are no written records, there is no history12. Little is known about the central Africa 200 years ago because_______.A. there was nothing worth writing down at that timeB. people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. people there did not know how to writeD. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire13 “Remembered history” refers to ______.A. history based on a person’s imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most important events 默默学D. both B and C14. “Remembered history” is regarded as valuable onlywhen________.A. it is written downB. no written account is availableC. it proves to be timelyD. people are interested in it15. It is suggested that we could have learned more about our past if ancient people had ______.A. kept a written record of every past eventB. burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsD. made more songs and dancesPassage FourNot all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers are developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.“Some memories can ruin people’s lives. They come back to you when you don’t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions.” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard MedicalSchool. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that it is very dangerous to change memories because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. “All of us can think of bad events in our lived that were horrible at the time but they can make us who we are. I’m not sure we want to wipe those memories out,” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.16. The drug tested on people can ________.A help cure brain damageB stop people remembering bad experiencesC stop the body producing certain chemicalsD wipe out the emotional effects of memories17. According to the supporters of the pills,_______.A. the pills might relieve people of troubling memoriesB. the pills could help people avoid mistakesC. taking the pill will d o harm to people’s health 默默学D. the pills should be produced in America soon18. The word “They” (Para. 6) refer to _______.A. the researchersB. the people on testC. memoriesD. mistakes19. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A Some memories can ruin people’s lives.B People want to get rid of bad memories.C Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D The pill will reduce people’s sufferings from bad memories.20. The passage is mainly about _______.A. an argument about the research on the pillB. a new research on the pillC a way of deleting painful memoriesD.a new medical inventionPart II Vocabulary and Structure （共40小题，每小题1分，共40分）Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

What are you encouraged to do when travelling in New Zealand?A. Take your own camping facilities.B. Bury glass far away from rivers.C. Follow the track for the sake of plants.D. Observe signs to approach nesting birds.BIn the United States alone, over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year. Cell-phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste like computers and personal digital assistants. The electronic waste stream isincreasing three times faster than traditional garbage as a whole.Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver. A Swiss study reported that while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste, the concentration (含量) of gold and other precious metals was higher in So-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals. Even when the machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed, the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries, in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material, up to 100 times more, than the material contained in the finished products. Consider again the cell-phone, and imagine the mines that produced those metals, the factories needed to make the box and packaging(包装) it came in. Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as well.The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that “the production, distribution, and use of products —as well as management of the resulting waste —all result in greenhouse gas release.”Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less waste at the start —for instance, buying reusable products and recycling.In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered or has been put in place as an incentive (动机) for reducing waste. If producers are required to take back packaging they use to sell their products, would they reduce the packaging in the first place?Governments’ incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money. Why, they ask, should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap (气泡垫) that encased your television?From the governments’point of view, a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers.58. By mentioning the Swiss study, the author intends to tell us that _________ .A. the weight of e-goods is rather smallB. E-waste deserves to be made good use ofC. natural minerals contain more precious metalsD. the percentage of precious metals is heavy in e-waste59. The responsibility of e-waste treatment should be extended _________ .A. from producers to governmentsB. from governments to producersC. from individuals to distributorsD. from distributors to governments60. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The increase in e-waste.B. The creation of e-waste.C. The seriousness of e-waste.D. The management of e-waste.CSuppose you become a leader in an organization. It’s very likely that you’ll want to have volunteers to help with the organization’s activities. To do so, it should help to understand why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.Let’s begin with the question of why people volunteer. Researchers have identified several factors that motivate people to get involved. For example, people volunteer to express personal values related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences, and to strengthen social relationships. If volunteer positions do not meet these needs, people may not wish to participate. To select volunteers, you may need to understand the motivations of the people you wish to attract.People also volunteer because they are required to do so. To increase levels of community service, some schools have launched compulsory volunteer programs. Unfortunately, these programs can shift people’s wish of participation from an internal factor (e.g., “I volunteer because it’s important to me”) to an external factor (e.g., “I volunteer because I’m required to do so”). When that happens, people become less likely to volunteer in the future. People must be sensitive to this possibility when they make volunteer activities a must.Once people begin to volunteer, what leads them to remain in their positions over time? To answer this question, researchers have conducted follow-up studies in which they track volunteers over time. For instance, one study followed 238 volunteers in Florida over a year. One of the most important factors that influenced their satisfaction as volunteers was the amount of suffering they experienced in their volunteer positions. Although this result may not surprise you, it leads to important practical advice. The researchers note that attention should be given to “training methods that would prepare volunteers for troublesome situations or provide them with strategies for coping with the problem they do experience”.Another study of 302 volunteers at hospitals in Chicago focused on individual differences in the degree to which people view “volunteer” as an important social role. It was assumed that those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be most likely to continue volunteer work. Participants indicated the degree to which the social role mattered by responding to statements such as “Volunteering in Hospital is an importantpart of who I am.”Consistent with the researchers’ expectations, they found a positive correlation (正相关) between the strength of role identity and the length of time people continued to volunteer. These results, once again, lead to concrete advice: “Once an individual begins volunteering, continued efforts might focus on developing a volunteer role identity.... Items like T-shirts that allow volunteers to be recognized publicly for their contributions can help strengthen role identity”.61. People volunteer mainly out of ______ .A. academic requirementsB. social expectationsC. financial rewardsD. internal needs62. What can we learn from the Florida study?A. Follow-up studies should last for one year.B. V olunteers should get mentally prepared.C. Strategy training is a must in research.D. V olunteers are provided with concrete advice.63. What is most likely to motivate volunteers to continue their work?A. Individual differences in role identity.B. Publicly identifiable volunteer T-shirts.C. Role identity as a volunteer.D. Practical advice from researchers.64. What is the best title of the passage?A. How to Get People to V olunteerB. How to Study Volunteer BehaviorsC. How to Keep Volunteers’ InterestD. How to Organize V olunteer ActivitiesDFreedom and ResponsibilityFreedom’s challenge in the Digital Age is a serious topic. We are facing today a strange new world and we are all wondering what we are going to do with it.Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom. Before that there was no freedom. There were great civilizations, splendid empires, but no freedom anywhere. Egypt and Babylon were both tyrannies, one very powerful man ruling over helpless masses.In Greece, in Athens (雅典), a little city in a little country, there were no helpless masses. And Athenians willingly obeyed the written laws which they themselves passed, and the unwritten, which must be obeyed if free men live together. They must show each other kindness and pity and the many qualities without which life would be very painful unless one chose to live alone in the desert.The Athenians never thought that a man was free if he could do what he wanted. A man was free if he was self-controlled. To make yourself obey what you approved was freedom. They were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair. Each one felt responsible for the welfare of Athens, not because it was forced on him from the outside, but because the city was his pride and his safety. The essential belief of the first free government in the world was liberty for all men who could control themselves and would take responsibility for the state.But discovering freedom is not like discovering computers. It cannot be discovered once for all. If people do not prize it, and work for it, it will go. Constant watch is its price. Athens changed. It was a change that took place without being noticed though it was of the extreme importance, a spiritual change which affected the whole state. It had been the Athenian爷s pride and joy to give to their city. That they could get material benefits from her never entered their minds. There had to be a complete change of attitude before they could look at the city as an employer who paid hercitizens for doing her work. Now instead of men giving to the state, the state was to give to them.What the people wanted was a government which would provide a comfortable life for them; and with this as the primary object, ideas of freedom and self-reliance and responsibility were neglected to the point of disappearing. Athens was more and more looked on as a cooperative business possessed of great wealth in which all citizens had a right to share.Athens reached the point when the freedom she really wanted was freedom from responsibility.There could be only one result. If men insisted on being free from the burden of self-dependence and responsibility for the common good, they would cease to be free. Responsibility is the price every man must pay for freedom. It is to be had on no other terms. Athens, the Athens of Ancient Greece, refused responsibility; she reached the end of freedom and was never to have it again.But, “the excellent becomes the permanent”, Aristotle said. Athens lost freedom forever, but freedom was not lost forever for the world. A great American, James Madison, referred to: “The capacity (能力) of mankind for self-government.” No doubt he had not an idea that he was speaking Greek. Athens was not in the farthest background of his mind, but once man has a great and good idea, it is never completely lost. The Digital Age cannot destroy it. Somehow in this or that man’s thought such an idea lives though unconsidered by the world of action. One can never be sure that it is not on the point of breaking out into action only sure that it will do so sometime.65. What does the underlined word “tyrannies” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Countries where their people need help.B. Powerful states with higher civilization.C. Splendid empires where people enjoy freedom.D. Governments ruled with absolute power.66. People believing in freedom are those who________ .A. regard their life as their own businessB. seek gains as their primary objectC. behave within the laws and value systemsD. treat others with kindness and pity67. What change in attitude took place in Athens?A. The Athenians refused to take their responsibility.B. The Athenians no longer took pride in the city.C. The Athenians benefited spiritually from the government.D. The Athenians looked on the government as a business.68. What does the sentence “There could be only one result.” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Athens would continue to be free.B. Athens would cease to have freedom.C. Freedom would come from responsibility.D. Freedom would stop Athens from self-dependence.69. Why does the author refer to Aristotle and Madison?A. The author is hopeful about freedom.B. The author is cautious about self-government.C. The author is skeptical of Greek civilization.D. The author is proud of man’s capacity.70. What is the author’s understanding of freedom?A. Freedom can be more popular in the digital age.B. Freedom may come to an end in the digital age.C. Freedom should have priority over responsibility.D. Freedom needs to be guaranteed by responsibility.第四部分: 任务型阅读(共10 小题; 每小题1 分, 满分10 分)People select news in expectation of a reward. This reward may be either of two kinds. One is related to what Freud calls the Pleasure Principle, the other to what he calls the Reality Principle. For want of better names, we shall call these two classes immediate reward and delayed reward. In general, the kind of news which may be expected to give immediate reward are news of crime and corruption, accidents and disasters, sports, social events, and human interest. Delayed reward may be expected from news of public affairs, economic matters, social problems, science, education, and health. News of the first kind pays its rewards at once. A reader can enjoy an indirect experience without any of the dangers or stresses involved. He can tremble wildly at an axe-murder, shake his head sympathetically and safely at a hurricane, identify himself with the winning team, laugh understandingly at a warm little story of children or dogs. News of the second kind, however, pays its rewards later. It sometimes requires the reader to tolerate unpleasantness or annoyance —as, for example, when he reads of the threatening foreign situation, the mounting national debt, rising taxes, falling market, scarce housing, and cancer. It has a kind of “threat value.” It is read so that the reader may be informed and prepared. When a reader selects delayed reward news, he pulls himself into the world of surrounding reality to which he can adapt himself only by hard work. When he selects news of the other kind, he usually withdraws from the world of threatening reality toward the dream world.For any individual, of course, the boundaries of these two classes are not stable. For example, a sociologist may read news of crime as a social problem, rather than for its immediate reward. A coach may read a sports story for its threat value: he may have to play that team next week. A politician may read an account of his latest successful public meeting, not for its delayed reward, but very much as his wife reads an account of a party. In any given story of corruption or disaster, a thoughtful reader may receive not only the immediate reward of indirect experience, but also the delayed reward of information and preparedness. Therefore, while the division of categories holds in general, an individual’s tendency may transfer any story from one kind of reading to another, or divide the experience between the two kinds of reward.第五部分: 书面表达(满分25 分)81.请阅读下面文字及图表,并按照要求用英语写一篇150 词左右的文章.[写作内容]1. 用约30 个单词概述上述信息的主要内容;2. 结合上述信息,简要分析导致交通问题的主要原因;3. 根据你的分析,从社会规范(rules and regulations)和个人行为两方面谈谈你得到的启示(不少于两点)。

The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast food restaurant. At fast food restaurants, people order their food, wait a few minutes to get it over the counter, and carry it to their tables themselves. People also take the food out of the restaurant and eat it in their cars or at their homes. At some fast food restaurants, people can order the food, pay for it and pick it up without leaving the cars.There are many kinds of fast food restaurants in the United States. Most of the restaurants sell hamburgers or other popular foods among Americans. In addition, there are many fast food restaurants that serve Chinese food, Indian food, Italian food, seafood and ice cream. The idea of a fast food restaurant is so popular that nearly every kind of food can be found in one.Fast food restaurants are popular because they show the American way of life. First, they are not formal restaurants. People wear any type of dress when they go to a fast food place. Second, they are fast. People who are busy do not want to spend time preparing the food or waiting while someone else prepares it. In fast food restaurants the food is usually ready before the customer even orders it. Finally, most of food fast food restaurant is not expensive. Therefore, people can often eat at a fast food restaurant without spending too much money, while they may not be able to go to more expensive restaurants very often.6.

"Expensive" in the last paragraph means_________.A. costlyB. cheapC. abundantD. scarcePassage ThreeOne hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn’t or couldn’t sleep. I tried everything I could think of: a warm bottle, songs, gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him. Guessing that I had a long night ahead of me, I brought a portable TV into his room, figuring that watching the latest movie was as good a way as any to kill off the hours until dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down, his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. Not to waste any opportunity for sleep. I then walked softly out of the room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate John Bellushi's 45th birthday.My wife and I heard no more of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room. I found him still watching TV himself.I found in my baby's behavior a symbol of the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools, we find that our students don't read, that they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After the experience with the baby, I have reached a conclusion: Let them watch it!" If television is the much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight it? Let them watch it all they want!11. Why did the author bring a TV set into his son's room?A. To make his son keep quiet.B. To spend the night by watching TV programs.C. In order not to let his son feel lonely.D. To make his son go to sleep as soon as possible.12. The baby's reaction to the TV program was_______.A. unexpectedB. encouragingC. excitingD. calm13. From the passage we know that the author is________.A. a doctorB. a reporterC. an editorD. a teacher14. According to the passage, which is TRUE of the school children?A. They preferred reading to watching TV.B. They like watching TV after school.C. They would rather watch TV than read books.D. They like their teachers who teach them reading.15. What do you think is the author's attitude towards TV expressed in the last two sentences?A. Favorable.B. Serious.C. Not favorable.D. Not serious.II .Vocabulary and Structure (本题共15小题，每题1分，共15分) Directions: For each of the followed sentences there are choices marked A, B, C and D.

I would ban television.I grew up a couch potato. Looking back, it seems I hardly read anything else at all—I watched TV almost seven hours a day.There are so many good reasons for you to be a couch potato. Television is good before-breakfast entertainment. Television is good after-school entertainment. Television is good before-bed enterta inment. Everybody watches it, so you have to watch it too in order to talk about it with friends. Ot herwise you cannot say a word, which makes you look like an idiot.But when I stopped watching television completely several months ago, I found that I had become a more reflective person, simply because I had more time to think. Television had stopped stuffing its ideas into my head. I was thinking of my childhood, and to my disappointment, I found that it could be summed up adequately in one sentence: “I watched a lot of TV.” And I wasted too much of my youth that I cannot have back. I will never be more imaginative than I was in my childhood. Now I can totally resist the temptation of TV no matter how marvelous the programs are, andI’m entering into a new stage of life. In the meantime, I’d hope that all couch potatoes would turn off their TV. But I am afraid that with more and more attractive TV programs, I’m not going to be the last person in this country to idle away the best years of life sitting passively in front of a televi sion.6. A couch potato is someone who ______.A. spends much time sitting and watching TVB. plants potatoC. plants potato in the couchD. sits in a couch eating potato7. People watch TV so much because ______.A. television is good before breakfast entertainmentB. television is good after-school entertainmentC. television is good before-bed entertainmentD. All of the above8. According to the passage, people will ______ if they stop watching TV.A. fill themselves with idea on TVB. be more lazy and relaxedC. have more time to thinkD. not look back at their childhood9. Which of the following is NOT true of the author?A. The author had watched television a lot.B. The author had wasted too much of his youth.C.

The phrase “idle away” (Para.5) probably means “______”.A. spend time in a different wayB. spend time in a relaxed wayC. enter a new stageD. watch television6-10 ADCDBPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago，we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had w ritten in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question .It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written acc ount of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country ，but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written recordat all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and lea ve written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they had not learned to write. Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people and often songs and dances and stories have been made abo ut the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call ‟remember ed history”. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as writte n history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech th an when copied in writing. But if there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very h elpful.11. Which of the following is NOT suggested in the passage?A. Written history is more reliable.B. Written records play an important role in learning about history.C. A written account of our daily activities helps to answer many questions. .D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.12. Little is known about the central Africa 200 years ago because ______.A. there was nothing worth writing down at that timeB. people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. people there did not know how to writeD. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire13. “Remembered hi story” refers to ______.A. history based on a person’s imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most important events.D. both B and C14. “Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when ______.A. it is written downB. No written account is availableC. it proves to be timelyD. People are interested in it15. It is suggested that we could have learned more about our past if ancient people had ______.A. kept a written record of every past eventB. burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsD. made more songs and dances11-15 DCDBAPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.NOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. V iolence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often the y relive experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers are developing a pill which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it mightreduce, or possibly erase the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body relea sing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emoti onal effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.“Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have the m in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitma n, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because me mories give us our identity. They also help us avoid the mistakes of the past. “All of us can think o f bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but they can make us who we are. I'm not su re we want to wipe those memories out,” said Rebecca Dresser ,a medical ethicist.16. The drug tested on people can ______.A. help cure brain damageB. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. stop the body producing certain chemicalsD. wipe out the emotional effects of memories17. According to the supporters of the pills, ______.A. the pills might relieve people of troubling memoriesB. the pills could help people avoid mistakesC. taking the pill will do harm to people’s healthD. the pills should be produced in American soon18. The word “they” (Para.6) refers to ______.A. the researchersB. the people on testC. memoriesD. mistakes19. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people’s lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D. The pill will reduce people’s sufferings from bad memories.20. The passage is mainly about ______.A. an argument about the research on the pillB. a new research on the pillC. a way of deleting painful memoriesD. a new medical invention16-20 DACCAPart II Vocabulary and Structure （共40小题，每小题1分，共40分）Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.
