A study has showed that the brain makes decisions about 10 se conds before a person realizes it.Experts involved in the study said that looking at brain activity w hile making a decision,they could predict the choices the subjects would make, before they realized that they had made a decision. Lead researcher J ohn-Dylan Haynes, a neuroscientist (神经学家)at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain S ciences in Leipzig, said that the new findings called into questio ns for “consciousness”of decisions that people make, and might even challenge ideas as to how“free”people are to make a deci sion at a particular moment.“We think our decisions are conscious, but these data show tha t consciousness is just the tip of the iceberg,”Nature magazine quoted (引用) him as saying. Thinking the results“quite dramatic”, Frank T ong of Vanderbilt University in , , said that 10 seconds is“a lifetime”in terms of brain activity.During the study, the brains of 14 volunteers were imaged as th ey performed a decision-making task. The subjects had two buttons before them, each t o be operated by a different hand, which they could press when they felt the urge to. They were sim ultaneously (同时地)shown a stream of letters, which appeared on a screen at ha lf-second intervals (间隔). The volunteers had to remember which letter was showing when they decided to press their button.Upon analysis of the data, the researchers realized that the earl iest signal they could catch started seven seconds before the v olunteers reported having made their decision. Given the delay of a few seconds in the imaging, they reckoned (估计) that the brain activity could have begun about ten seconds b efore the conscious decision. The researchers showed that the signals were picked up from a region (区域)called the frontopolar cortex (脑额极皮层),which is located at the front of the brain, immediately behind the forehead.While writing about the observations made during the research i n his study report, Haynes said that the frontopolar cormight be the brain region where decisions are started. He also showed that the next step in the research would be to speed up the data analysis so as to enable his team to predict people’s c hoices as their brains would make them.1. The passage tells us that ______.A. we are aware of our whole process of decision-makingB. people don’t make decisions until they realize itC. experts have no way to tell what decision one will makeD. the decision-making process starts before it is made2. The underlined word “subjects”in Para. 2 probably refers to _ _____.A. the topic of the experts’ research paperB. the scientific subjects that the experts were studyingC. the things that experts don’t know clearlyD. the volunteers that the experts worked on for their research3. The underlined sentence“consciousness is just the tip of the i ceberg”in Para. 4 means that ______.A. our decision-making is consciousB. the data contains a lot of information besides consciousnessC. consciousness is the major part of the dataD. 10 seconds is“a lifetime”in terms of brain activity4. The final purpose of the research ______.A. is not stated clearly in the passageB. is not acknowledged by expertsC. is to show where decision-making startsD. is to analyze the data picked up5. The passage implies that ______.A. the research has been completedB. the research was conducted by two expertsC. the decision-making process lasts only about 10 secondsD. we may predict what decisions people will make in the future 【参考答案】25.DDBA【四川省成都市2014届高三英语摸底测试模拟试题(一)】Humans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds o utside of our own. Wetake delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societ ies beyond our everyday lives.This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scient ists have made to find out whether life of some kind exists on Mars, and the popularity of fantasy literature or movies like The L ord of the Rings. This sense of wonder draws us to each other, to the world around us, and to the world of make-believe. But have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy t hat we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that already exi st all around us?Human beings, as biologists have suggested, possess an inbor n desire to connect with and understand other life forms, Howev er, people, especially in big cities, often lead rather isolated live s. In a study of British schoolchildren, it was found that children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from tele vision shows and video games than with common wildlife. With out modern technology, a small pond could be an amazing worl d filled with strange and beautiful plants, insects, birds, and ani mals. When we lack meaningful interaction with the world aroun d us, and sometimes even with our families and friends, we see k to understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen.The world of make—believe is not necessarily bad. But when the world of fantasy be comes the only outlet for our sense of wonder, then we are reall y missing something. We are missing a connection with the livin g world. Other wonderful worlds exist all around us. But even more interesting is that if we look closely enough, we can see that these worlds, in a broad sense, are really part of our own.47.The popularity of The Lord of the Rings proves _____.A. the close connection between man and the fantasy worldB. the wonderful achievements of fantasy literatureC. the fine taste of moviegoers around the worldD. the general existence of the sense of curiosity48.What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?A. People are far less familiar with the world of fantasy.B. The world around us could serve as a sound of wonder.C. The world of fantasy can be mirrored by a small and lively pond.D. Modern technology prevents us from developing our sense of wonder.49.If our sense of wonder relies totally on the world of make—believe, we will _____.A. fail to appreciate the joy in our livesB. be confused by the world of make—believeC. miss the chance to recognize the fantasy worldD. be trapped by other worlds existing all around us50.What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To show us the hidden beauty in our world.B. To warn us not to get lost in the fantasy world.C. To argue against the misuse of the sense of wonder.D. To discuss the influence of the world of make—believe.47. D 48.B49.A50.B[【上海市闵行区2014高考英语质量调研考试】Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For e ach of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choo se the one that fits best according to the information given in th e passage you have just read.(A)Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. Th ey are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women r iding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting re gularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fo x hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of pe ople opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is cruel, has r isen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without s ome kind of conflict between hunters and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly sab oteurs interfere (干涉) with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of t he fox’s smell, which the dogs follow.Noisy conflicts between hunters and saboteurs have become s o common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as th e pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to ap prove a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals wit h dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in .66. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes ________.A. for recreationB. to limit the fox populationC. in the interests of the farmersD. to show off their wealth67. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.B. It is a costly event that rarely occurs.C. The hunters have set rules to follow.D. The hunters have to go through strict training.68. Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game ____ ____.A. by leaning upon violenceB. by taking legal actionC. by confusing the fox huntersD. by demonstrating on the scene69. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to ________.A. prohibit farmers from hunting foxesB. forbid hunting foxes with dogsC. stop hunting wild animals in the countrysideD. prevent large-scale fox hunting6 6.A67.C68.C69.BIntellectual property (IP) is a product of the mind that has comm ercial value.The concept dates back to 1623,when the first pat ent law to protect IP rights was passed.IP rights protect an arti st from having his/her creative ideas copied by another.For ex ample, if somebody generates an idea for a novel, that idea is p rotected by IP rights.If someone else wishes to represent the i dea or develop it further, he/she must consult the original artists , who will normally be rewarded financially for its use.Back in t he 17th century, IP rights were primarily carried out to protect n ewly developed manufacturing processes against stealing, but t oday, intellectual property rights, are also enjoyed by those who create music, art and literature.In recent years, IP rights have been the focus of a great deal of discussion because of a technology which looks set to weaken t hem altogether: the Internet.Many years ago, if you wanted a recording of a song, you would have to purchase it from a musi c store; if a novel, from a book store.In those days, IP rights w ere easily protected since it was very difficult to obtain intellectu al property without paying for it.However, a lot of IP, including songs, films, books and artwork, can be downloaded today free of charge using the Internet.This practice has now taken the w orld by storm, dramatically affecting the way in which we view I P rights.68.According to the writer, in the beginning, IP rights were mai nly of use to ____ __.A.those creating music, art and literatureB.novelistsC.engineers and inventorsD.those not receiving financial reward for their work 69.What do we know about the Internet according to the pass age?A.It makes IP rights harder to protect.B.It sells songs and films.C.It does not affect the way we understand IP rights.D.It prevents the production of artwork.70.According to Paragraph 2, what has “taken the world by st orm”?A.Intellectual property rights. B.The Internet.C.Free downloading. D.The large number of songs, fi lms and books.71.A possible title for this passage could be _____ _.A.A History of IP Rights B.Ways to Protect Your IP RightsC.The Present and the Future of IP D.IP Rights and O ur Attitudes参考答案 68.C 69.A 70.C 71.D阅读理解A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from hi s brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童)was walking around the shining car. "Is this your car, Paul?"he asked.Paul answered, "Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was surprised. "You mean your brother gave it to you a nd it didn't cost you anything. Boy, I wish..."He hesitated (犹豫). Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was goi ng to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surp rised Paul greatly."I wish," the boy went on, "that I could be a brother like that." Pa ul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again; "Would you like to take a ride in my car?" "Oh, yes, I'd love that." After a sho rt ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, "Paul, wo uld you mind driving in front of my house?"Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. H e wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?" the boy asked.He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him co ming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his littl e crippled ( 残疾 ) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car ."There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gav e it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And someday I'm going to give you one just like it. Then youcan see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I've been trying to tell you about."Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The s hining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and three of them beg an an unforgettable holiday ride.67. The street urchin was very surprised when______________ .A. Paul received an expensive carB. Paul told him about the carC. he saw the shining carD. he was walking arou nd the car68. From the story we can see the urchin_____________ .A. wished to give his brother a carB. wanted Paul's brother to give him a carC. wished he could have a brother like Paul'sD. wished Paul could be a brother like that69. The urchin asked Paul to stop his car in front of his house______________ .A. to show his neighbours the big carB. to show he had a rich friendC. to let his brother ride in the carD. to tell his brotherabout his wish70.

I felt like that last year when I had term papers to write, but this term seems easy now. I spent a lot of time in class, but most of it was in the labs. I hated writing all those term papers. But can’t I talk you into going to the show anyway?W: Oh, now I’m sure I won’t go.(Text 7)M: Here we are. This is it. I know it’s smaller than you wanted, but it’s one of the nicest flats in the building.W: Does it have three bedrooms?M: No. There are two. The master room is quite large though. Maybe you could let the children share the large room, and you and your husband could use the smaller one.W: I suppose I could do that. A three-bedroom flat will be difficult to find. I’ve been looking for one for over a week. The few three-bedroom flats that I have found are all extremely expensive. You said that the rent would be 350 dollars a month.M: Yes. It includes gas. So, as you can imagine, electricity and water are quite inexpensive.W: This sounds better and better. But before I sign an agreement I would like my husband to see it. M: Why not stop by with him this afternoon? Our office is open until seven o’clock.W: OK. See you then.(Text 8)W: Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me the way to the Red Bird Hotel?M: You can take the No. 8 bus. It’ll take you right there.W: Where is the stop?M: It is over there across the street in front of the post office.W: Do I have to have exact change?M: No, the driver can give you change.W: Where should I get off?M: Ask the driver to let you know. He knows the town very well.W: OK! Thanks. By the way, does the hotel have a sign by the street?M: Yes, a very big one, painted in red.W: Thank you. Bye!(Text 9)W: I enjoy going through secondhand bookstores, don’t you? It’s interesting to see what people used toenjoy reading. Did you see this old book of children’s stories?M: Some of these books aren’t so old, though. See? This history book was pu blished only six years ago. It costs seventy-five cents.W: Hey! Look at this!M: What? Are you getting interested in the 19th century poems all of a sudden?W: No. Look! Someone gave this book as a present and wrote a note on the inside of the front cover. It’s dated 1893. Maybe it’s worth fifty cents.M: Everything on that shelf is worth fifty cents.W: But if this is the note of someone who is well known, it might bring a lot more. I hear William Shakespeare’s note is worth about a million dollars.M: Good luck. Your book may make you rich. But I am sure my seventy-five cent history book is a better buy.(Text 10)M: When I was studying at Yale, something puzzled me greatly. I found that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and having discussions. I was also impressed by the role of the professor in the class. The professor didn’t act as an authority figure, giving final conclusions, but as a researcher looking for answers to questions together with the students. When answering questions, he usually said, “This is my personal opinion and it could be wrong.” or “You could be right, but you might find this point of view also interesting.”Besides, in America, the examinations usually do not test a student’s ability to memorize the material. Actually, they test one’s ability to analyze and solve problems. People regard the education system in America as a process of improving critical thinking.。
