AA new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops(笔记本电脑).Students arc increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legibility(清晰度).But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes "mindlessly" by taking down word for word what the professors said In the first experiment, students were given either a laptop or pen and paper .They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note-taking skills、Thirty minutes after the talk , they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand、However, the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts、Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.The researchers' report said, "While more notes are beneficial, if the notes are taken mindlessly, as is more likely the case on a laptop, the benefit disappears."In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory, students took notes as before but were tested aweek after the lecture、This time, the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding, but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.21、More and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they can 、.A、write more notesB、digest concepts betterC、get higher scoresD、understand lectures better22、While taking notes, laptop users tend to be 、 .A、skillfulB、mindlessC、thoughtfulD、tireless23、The author of the passage aims to 、.A、examine the importance of long-term memoryB、stress the benefit of taking notes by handC、explain the process of taking notesD、promote the use of laptops24、The passage is likely to appear in 、.A、a newspaper advertisementB、a computer textbookC、a science magazineD、a finance reportB(Q = Question; A = Answer)Situation IQ: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theater, is it rude to move?A: Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it、Chances are that close sitter doesn't realize he disturbs you, so he maymiss your annoyance、You undoubtedly aren't the first person he's met who needs enough room、Forgive hisbad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.Situation IIQ: If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something?A: Consider frequency and urgency、Is this a one-time or an emergency? If so, you don't have to buy anything, butit would be kind if you did、However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are acustomer,and you should act like one.Situation IIIQ: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?A: No、Try other means.1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down、2) Lift your finger in a silencemotion(动作)and smile、3) Put on earphones and ignore him.Situation IVQ: If I remember my friend's birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothinghappened?A: This is the reason why the word belated was invented、"Happy belated birthday!" is short for: "Well, I know Iforgot, but then I remembered、Forgive me and happy birthday."Situation VQ: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond(回复) to it?A: Don't lie、Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it、Why waste a perfectly good lie when thetruth will serve?

No explanation is needed as to why you don'trespond.25、You will get annoyed in a theater when 、.A、a person is too activeB、a person is too rude to youC、a person talks too loudlyD、a person sits too close to you26、How will you quiet someone down in a public place?A、By making fun of him continuously、B、By looking purposefully at him.C、By talking to him directly、D、By pointing angrily at him.27、The underlined word "belated" in Situation IV probably means 、.A、predictedB、returnedC、cancelledD、delayed28、What is the passage mainly about?A、Modern ways to mind your manners、B、Different ways to change others' manners.C、Proper manners to offer help to others、D、Good manners to talk to people.CWould it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined、Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was、In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition "depending on who needs it".Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy、This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about "mother trees", usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend、She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow、When humans cut down "mother trees" with no awareness of these highly complex "tree societies" or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest."We didn't take any notice of it" Simard says sadly、"Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance." If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.29、The underlined sentence "the opposite is true" in Paragraph 2 probably means thattrees 、A、compete for survivalB、protect their own wealthC、depend on each otherD、provide support for dying trees30、"Mother trees" are extremely important because they .A、look the largest in size in the forestB、pass on nutrition to young treesC、seem more likely to be cut down by humansD、know more about the complex "tree societies"31、The underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refers to .A、how "tree societies" workB、how trees grow oldC、how forestry industry developsD、how young trees survive32、What would be the best title for the passage?A、Old Trees Communicate Like HumansB、Young Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionC、Trees Are More Awesome Than You ThinkD、Trees Contribute To Our SocietyDTravis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees (雇员)and profits (利润) of over $2 million per year、He's never late to work、He does not get upset on the job、When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her, Travis took her away、"Your working uniform is your shelter," he told her、"Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you、You will always be as strong as you want to be."Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses, an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee's occupation、The training has, Travis says, changed his life、G&G has taught him how to live, how to focus, how to get to work on time, and how to master his emotions (情绪)、Most importantly, it taught him willpower.At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit; willpower、Dozens of cases show that willpower is the single most important habit for a person's success.And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit、"Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren't working hard—but that's because they've made it automatic," Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvaniaresearchers said、"Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it."The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to trainemployees on self-control、Managers wrote workbooks that serve as guides to how to make willpower ahabit in workers' lives、Those courses arc, in part, why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $10 billion a year.33、We loam from Paragraph 2 that employees in G&G must .A、learn to give lecturesB、attend education programsC、design a working uniformD、develop a common hobby34、Willpower will become a habit when employees can .A、focus on the profitsB、benefit from the jobC、protect themselves wellD、control their feeling well35、What can we infer from the passage?A、G&G has grown into a large company、B、G&G will spend half its profits training employees.C、G&G may become more successful in the future、D、G&G has to produce more workbooks for managers.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Our parents have jobs that keep them busy almost all day long. They only have a free day in a week. This doesn’t allow them to keep an eye on their children.On the other hand, the modern society gives more freedom to the children than they could “handle〞. As a child, you don’t know how to grow up by yourself until you reach a certain age. That is why you need school and parents to be by your side all the time. If you don’t have either of them you may make a lot of mistakes. The social system of the modern society is very lenient especially with the children.Most of the children today are rebels (判逆者). They are rude. They are given too much freedom by their families. This is their parent’s mistake. They ought to know that the freedom they give to their children is misunderstood.For example it is a bad thing for a 17 – year – old child to go out in the evening on weekends. Parents are also guilty of the way their children show up in the street or at school. The same guilt belongs to the teaching system as well. Pupils shouldn’t be allowed to dress like they were on a fashion presentation at school.Another important fact we can think of regarding the freedom of children is their free will of spending money. Parents shouldn’t allow their children to spend money on whatever they want.I think children are given too much freedom not only by their parents, but also by the society. The latter is more to be blamed!64．The writer implies that parents’ busy lifestyle .A．makes their children become independentB．may lead to a tense parent – child relationshipC．is harmful to their children’s healthD．is likely to create a troubled generation65．What does the underlined word “lenient〞 (in Para 2) mean?A．Not responsible B．Not strict. C．Unkind. D．Unfair.66．It seems that the writer agrees that students .A．should stay at home on weekendsB．can wear trendy clothes at schoolC．had better wear school uniform at schoolD．can be allowed to go out in the evenings67．According to the writer, which of the following takes the primary responsibility for children’s problems?A．The social environment. B．The educational system.C．Each family. D．The school.孩子不公平。

Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”.Nitrogen and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi networks, making sure that all tress in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about “mother trees”, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young tress so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees” with no awareness of these highly complex “tree societies” of the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“ We didn’t take any notice of it.” Simard says sadly. “ Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance.” If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.29.

He’s never late to work. He does not get upset on thejob. When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her, Travistook her away. “Your working uniform is your shelter,” he told her, “ Nothing anyonesays will ever hurt you. You will always be as strong as you want to be.”Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses, an education program that began on his first day and continue throughout an employee’s occupation.The training has Travis says, changed his life. G&G has taught him how to live. how tofocus, how to get to work on time, and how to master his emotions. Most importantly, ittaught him willpower.At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit willpower. Dozens of cases show that willpower is the single most important habit for aperson’s success.And the best w ay to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit. “sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren’t working hard—but that’s because they’vemade it automatic. ” Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvaniaresearchers said, “ Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it.”The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train employees on self-control.

However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.Situation IIIQ: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?A: No. try other means: 1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down. 2) Lift your finger in a silence motion(动作) and smile. 3) Put on earphones and ignore him.Situation IVQ: If I remember my friend’s birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?A: this is the reason why the word belated was invented. ―Happy belated birthday!‖ is short for: ―Well, I know I forgot, but then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday.‖Situation VQ: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond (回复)to it?A: Don’t lie .Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it.

You will get annoyed in a theater when _______.A. a person is too activeB. a person is too rude to youC. a person talks too loudlyD. a person sits too close to you26. How will you quiet someone down in a public place?A. By making fun of him continuously.B. By looking purposefully at him.C. By talking to him directly.D. By pointing angrily at him.27.

Different ways to change others’ manners.C. Proper manners to offer help to others.D. Good manners to talk to people.CWould it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition ―depending on who needs it‖.Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about ―mother trees‖, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down ―mother trees‖ with no awareness of these highly complex ―tree societies‖ or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.―We didn’t take any notice of it,‖ Simard says sadly. ―Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance.‖ If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.29. The underlined sentence ―the opposite is true‖ in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees___________.A. compete for survivalB. protect their own wealthC. depend on each otherD. provide support for dying trees30. ―Mother trees‖ are extre mely important because they _________.A. look the largest in size in the forestB. pass on nutrition to young treesC. seem more likely to be cut down by humansD. know more about the complex ―tree societies‖31. The underlined word ―it‖ in the last paragraph refers to ________.A. how ―tree societies‖ workB. how trees grow oldC. how forestry industry developsD. how young trees survive32. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Old Trees Communicate Like HumansB. Young Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionC. Trees Are More Awesome Than You ThinkD. Trees Contribute To Our SocietyDTravis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees(雇员) and profits(利润) of over $2 million per year. He’s never late to work. He does not get upset on the job. When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her. Travis took her away. ―Your working uniform is your shelter.‖ he told her. ―Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you. You will always be as you want to be.‖Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training course, an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee’s occupation. The training has, Travis says, changed his life. G&G has taught him how to live, how to focus, how to get to work on time, and how to master his emotions（情绪）. Most importantly, it taught him willpower.At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit: willpower. Dozens of cases show tha t willpower is the single most important habit for a person’s success.And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit. ― Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren’t working hard—but that’s because they’ve made it aut omatic.‖ Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvania researchers said‖ Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it.‖The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train employees on self-control. Managers wrote workbooks that serve as guides to how to make willpower a habit in workers` lives. Those courses are, in part, why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $ 10 billion a year.33. We learn from Paragraph 2 that employees in G&G must_______A. learn to give lecturesB. attend education programsC. design a working uniformD. develop a common hobby34. Willpower will become a habit when employees can_______A. focus on the profitsB. benefit from the jobC. protect themselves wellD. control their feelings well35. What can we infer from the passage?A. G&G has grown into a large company.B. G&G will spend half its profits training employees.C. G&G may become more successful in the future.D. G&G has to produce more workbooks for managers.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AGoing on holiday not only makes you feel good while you’re there, you also gain the health benefits for months, new research shows．Jetting off to destinations such as the Maldives cuts your blood pressure, helps you sleep better and bounce back from stress, it found．The benefits last at least a fortnight longer than the vacation and can be felt for months in some cases where it is claimed．Experts say workers should always take their full holiday entitlement（权利）each year, but as many as one in three don’t．The study compared key health markers in holidaymakers visiting Thailand, Peru or the Maldives, with people who stayed at home and continued working．The average blood pressure of those on holiday dropped by six percent while the workers saw their blood pressure rise by two percent over the same period．The sleep quality of holidaymakers improved by 17 percent while that of the non-holidaymakers deteriorated by 14 percent．The study also found the ability of vacationers to recover from stress, known as the stress-resilience test improved by 29 percent．There was a 71 percent fall in stress resilience scores among workers．Tests showed a fall in blood glucose levels, reducing the risk of diabetes （糖尿病）, trimmer waistlines and improved mood and energy levels, with the effects sustained for at least two weeks after returning home．The Holiday Health Experiment was conducted by tour operator Kuoni and Nuffield Health,the UK’s largest healthcare charity．21．According to the passage, how many people go on holiday?A．Two thirds．B．One third．C．17 percent．D．A quarter．22．Which of the following can we infer from the passage?A．The further you go, the better you get the benefits．B．Most people like to stay at home during the holiday．C．The result of the study is mostly based on the description from the people involved．D．Holiday makers are more adaptable than non-holidaymakers．23．The author intends to tell us that ________．A．we have to go on holiday as much as possibleB．you’ll certainly get depressed if you don’t go on holidayC．we had better go on holiday for the benefits of healthD．it is best to go to foreign countries like Maldives24．The best title of the passage is ________．A．A Holiday Health ExperimentB．Health Benefits from HolidayC．Health Problems of Having HolidayD．Key Health Markers in HolidaymakersBBDU — www．chinadaily．corn．cn / bdu CHINA DAILY LANGUAGEBDU — BUSINESS DAILY UPDATEWant to know the dynamic pulse of China’s econo my?Get a glance of the most important business activities taking place here every daythrough Business Daily Update, a service offered by China Daily information via the World Wide Web．Placed under 10 categories, over 25 news items appear each day with the top three events highlighted all in English．Business Daily Update is just a few mouse clicks away．Subscribe to BDU for an annual fee of US $240．Email and fax services are also Available upon request．For more information, please contact Business Daily Update:Tel: （010）64941107, （010）64924488 ext．2000; Fax: +86-10-64941125Email: bdu@chinadaily．com．cn;URL:http://www．chinadaily．com．cn/bdu25．If you get into BDU, you can ________．A．get the information of the latest business activities taking place in ChinaB．get the most important business information in the worldC．know more than what you expect in ChinaD．get all the information in China Daily26．This advertisement will be very helpful to ________．A．Chinese people B．foreign travelersC．foreign business people D．China Daily reporters27．To get the information from BDU every day, you must ________．A．understand ChineseB．know something about the mouseC．know how to operate a computerD．how to use a fax machineCDear David,I’m glad you would like to share your feelings with me．It’s hardly surprising that your feelings of not being “grown up” have come on strongly at this point in your life, just before you’re about to become a father．You are asking: Will I make a good father? How will I cope? I think nearly every man must have the occasional feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy before the birth．It’s difficult, honestly, to feel grown-up unless you have something less grown-up to relate to．The boss with a hen-pecking wife may feel like a seven-year-old when he’s at home．But as he walks through the office door, and knows he’s going to be surrounded by staff for advice, he grows into a fully mature man．And I think it’s a mistake to imagine that we all feel, as we age, a kind of progress of states, from the baby to the adult．Most people feel, on Tuesday, about three years old, and on a Wednesday, around 80．There’s a common remark that“all men are little boys”, but it’s not true．It’s more true that men often behave like little boys．But nearly all people, at some moments in their lives, are able to be greatly mature．．Once your baby arrives, you’ll soon feel less childlike．When your child tries to put its fingers into the electric plug, the adult in you will rise up to prevent it．Comfort yourself, David, with two truths．One is that your friends laugh when they talk aboutthis subject because they, like you, feel frightened．And remember that people who haven’t grown up don’t go around talking about the fact．Good luck to you and your little one．Sincerely Yours,Miss Advice 28．According to the passage, Miss Advice thinks David’s self-doubt ________．A．valuable B．unusual C．natural D．bearable 29．From Paragraph 2, we can learn that people’s sense of maturity ________．A．will increase with ageB．is obviously seen at homeC．changes with different situationsD．becomes stronger with familiar people30．Miss Advice holds that ________．A．all men behave like little boysB．people tend to laugh at the subjectC．men with a baby feel more grown-upD．people enjoy talking about their immaturity31．Miss Advice wrote the letter to ________．A．offer suggestions to a future father B．teach people how to grow upC．encourage people to be responsible D．solve problems of the less grown-up DDWas the London Olympics a success? Many people hold different opinions．However, one thing is certain, London could win a gold medal for hosting the“greenest”Games ever, BBC News reported．Previous Olympic hosts have been criticized for the environmental damage they have caused through construction, waste and transport．But things had to be different in London．What is most impressive is that London considered the construction of the Olympic Park as an opportunity to clean up polluted areas．2 million tons of polluted soils were removed and 200 old factory buildings were torn down, according to sustainablebusiness．com．But that’s not all．99 percent of the debris（废瓦砾）were reused to build the Olympic Park．As well as using recycled materials, all gymnasiums were built with green building techniques．The Olympic Stadium is the lightest one ever built, which minimized the amount ofsteel and concrete needed．Also, the handball field has lighting pipes on the roof that reduce electricity use by 40 percent．The effort that London made to deal with waste also deserves praise．Water used for drinking and watering plants was from collected rainwater or recycled wastewater．In this way, about 30-40 percent less water was used in total．Waste food package were either recycled or processed and turned into renewable energy．As one of the best connected places in Europe, London tried to solve traffic jams by encouraging the use of public transport．For example, it had trains deliver half of the building materials, instead of cars, which greatly reduced carbon emissions（排放）．The clean anti-doping result also added to the greenness of the Games．Only one athlete tested positive for a banned drug on the day of competing, which is why the IOC President, Jacques Rogge, has praised anti-doping efforts at the London Games．32．To make the Olympic Park green, London ________．A．recycled 2 million tons of polluted soilB．applied green building techniques to the constructionC．built the Olympic Stadium mostly with recycled materialsD．removed 99 percent of the debris from the city33．The underlined word“minimized”in the fourth paragraph probably means ________．A．increased as much as possible B．made use ofC．reduced as much as possible D．took little notice of34．What can we conclude from the article?A．The London Olympics cost less than the other Olympics ever held．B．London has possessed the most advanced techniques to deal with waste．C．Public transport is made good use of in London during the Olympic Games．D．The anti-doping result in the London Olympics turned out to be dissatisfactory．35．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A．The effort that London made to deal with waste isn't worthy of praise．B．In terms of holding the greenest Games, the London Olympics was a success．C．London tried to solve traffic jams by encouraging the use of private cars for free．D．The IOC President, Jacques Rogge was unsatisfied with the anti-doping efforts at the London Games．第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
