The Need to RememberSome people say they have no memory at all："I just can' t remember a thing!" But of course we all have a memory．0ur memory tells us who we are．Our memory helps us to make use in the present of what we have learnt in the past.In fact we have different types of memory．For example, our visual memory helps us recall facts and places. Some people have such a strong visual memory, they can remember exactly what they have seen，for example, pages of a book，as a complete picture．Our verbal（言语的）memory helps us remember words and figures we may have heard but not seen or written: items of a shopping list, a chemical formula，dates，or a recipe．With our emotional（情感的）memory，we recall situations or places where we had strong feelings, perhaps of happiness or unhappiness．We also have special memories for smell，taste，touch and sound，and for performing physical movements．We have two ways of storing any of these memories：Our short-term memory stores items for up to thirty seconds-enough to remember a telephone number while we dial．Our long-term memory, on the other hand, may store items for a lifetime．Older people in fact have a much better-long-term memory than short-term．They may forget what they have done only a few hours ago, but have the clearest remembrance（记忆）of when they were very young．Psychologists tell us that we only remember few facts about our past, and that we invent the rest．It is as though we remember only the outline of a story. We then make up the details. We often do this in the way we want to remember them, usually so that we appear as the heroes of our own past-or maybe victims needing sympathy（同情）．16 Visual memory helps us recall a place we have been to．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned17 Visual memory may be used when we read a story．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned18 Verbal memory helps us read words we have never heard．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned19 Emotional memory is used when we perform physical movements．27 The ancient Greeks believed that their could be cured by telling their dreams．28 Most scientists believe that dreams have something to do with in our daily life．29 If you dream of driving a large car，it could mean that you want ．30 When people are not allowed to dream during sleep，they become ．A powerB quiet and happyC eventsD experimentsE diseasesF worried and nervous第4部分：阅读理解（第31-45题，每题3分，共45分）下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。

第一篇When Our Eyes Serve Our StomachOur senses aren’t just delivering a strict view of what’s going on in the world；they’re aff ected by what’s going on in our heads. A new study finds that hungry people see food-related words more clearly than people who’ve just eaten.Psychologists have known for decades that what’s going on, inside our head affects our senses. For example, poorer children think coins are larger than they are, and hungry people think pictures of food are brighter. Remi Radel of University of Nice Sophia-Antipolis，France，wanted to investigate how this happens. Does it happen right away as the brain receives signals from the eyes or a little later as the brain’s high-level thinking processes get involved.A Human's senses aren’t just delivering a strict view of what’s going on in the world.B What's perceived by our senses affects our way of thinking.C Human brains can really be at the disposal of our motives and needs.D Thinking processes guarantee the normal functions of our senses.34. What did the results of the experiment indicate?A 80 words flashed on the screen too fast for the participant to intentionally perceive.B Hungry people were better at identifying neutral words.C People who had just eaten were better at identifying food-related words.D The participants could barely perceive what they needed or what they strived for.35. What can we infer from the passage?A 42 participants are too small a number for a serious investigation.B An experiment with hungry and non-hungry participants is not reliable.C Our thinking processes are independent of our senses.D Humans can perceive what they need without involving high-level thinking processes.第二篇：Stop Eating Too Much"Clean your plate!" and" Be a member of the clean-plate club! " just about every kid inD Forty-five percent of Americans want smaller portions．40 Which of the following is NOT true of working class Americans?A They work long hours．B They live from paycheck to paycheck．C They don't want to be healthy eaters．D They want to save money for presents．第三篇SunspotsIt's not surprising that sunspots（太阳黑子）were observed by ancient astronomers（天文学家）．The largest sunspots on the sun can be seen without a telescope．1t was not until the invention of the telescope（望远镜）in the early l7th century，however，that systematic studies of sunspots could be undertaken．The great astronomer Galileo was among the first to make telescopic observations of sunspots．Sunspots are regions of extremely strong magnetic fields（磁场）found on the sun's surface．A sunspot has a dark central core known as the umbra．The umbra is surrounded by a dark ring called the penumbra．where the magnetic field spreads outward．Sunspots appear dark because they are giving off less radiation．They are cooler than the rest of the sun's surface．Sunspots are frequently observed in pairs or in paired groups．The members of a spot pair are identified as the leading spot and the following spot．They are identified by their position In the pair In terms of the direction in which the sun rotates（旋转）．The number of sunspots at any one time varies．A large spot group may consist of as many as 10 groups and 300 spots across the sun．The number of spots changes in a fairly regular pattern called the sunspot cycle．The largest number occurs about every 11 years．At sunspot minimum, there are at most just a few small spots．The average lifetime of an individual spot group is roughly one solar rotation．which is about 25 days．The most persistent large spots, however, can survive for two to three months．41 Careful observations and systematic studies of sunspotsA were made by ancient astronomers．B started in the early 17th century．As you wander through the store you will find many interesting items that you can use for your home or even office．With these products you will have a beautiful house that you can live comfortably in．（50）The Canada Ikea is a great place for you to shop．A This furniture is designed to provide the home owner with stylish（时髦的）furniture that is also affordable and perfect for everyday use．B With so many items to be found you are sure to want to buy everything that catches your fancy．C These bags and carts are perfect for the many different lamp shades，cushions（垫子），bed linens（亚麻布），toys and other medium to small sized objects that you want．D This makes it very easy for visitors from other countries to buy the items they need without wandering around the store trying to find their goods．E One such store that you can find in many different countries including that of Canada is．that of the Ikea（宜家）chain of stores．F The larger sized objects are displayed in the showrooms of the Canada Ikea stores．第6部分：完形填空（第51～65题，每题1分，共15分）下面的短文有15处空白，请根据短文内容为每处空白确定1个最佳选项。

请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上.回答23-31题Intelligent Machines1. Medical scientists are already putting computer chips (芯片) directly into the brain to helppeople who have Parkinson's disease, but in what other ways might computer technology beable to help us? Ray Kurzweil is author of the successful book The Age of IntelligentMachines and is one of the world's best computer research scientists. He is researching thepossibilities.2. Kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices. An example of this is Ramona, the virtual(虚拟的) hostess of Kurzweil's homepage, who is programmed to understand what yousay. Visitors to the site can have their conversations with her, and Ramona also dances andsings.3. Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical disabilities. One of his ideas is a"seeing machine". This will be "like a friend that could describe what is going on in thevisible world," he explains. Blind people will use a visual sensor (探测器) which willprobably be built into a pair of sunglasses. This sensor will describe to the person everythingit sees.4. Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the "listening machine". Thisinvention will recognize millions of words and understand any speaker. The listeningmachine will be able to translate into other languages, so even people without hearingproblems are likely to be interested in using it.5. But it is not just about helping people with disabilities. Looking further into the future,Kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to download our entire consciousness onto acomputer. This technology probably won't be ready for at least 50 years, but when itarrives,it means our mind will be able to live forever.23、Paragraph 2_______.A.A new pair of earsputers that can communicateC.Everlasting consciousness on a computerD.Time to break off a friendshipE.An author and researcherF.A new pair of eyes24、Paragraph 3_______.A.A new pair of earsputers that can communicateC.Everlasting consciousness on a computerD.Time to break off a friendshipE.An author and researcherF.A new pair of eyes25、Paragraph 4_______.A.A new pair of earsputers that can communicateC.Everlasting consciousness on a computerD.Time to break off a friendshipE.An author and researcherF.A new pair of eyes26、Paragraph 5_______.A.A new pair of earsputers that can communicateC.Everlasting consciousness on a computerD.Time to break off a friendshipE.An author and researcherF.A new pair of eyes27、Ray Kurzweil works with computers to help people_______.A.what you sayB.a pair of sunglassesC.the listening machineD.a visual sensorE.who have disabilitiesF.living forever in a computer28、Ramona is able to understand_______.A.what you sayB.a pair of sunglassesC.the listening machineD.a visual sensorE.who have disabilitiesF.living forever in a computer29、Blind people will be able to see the world with_______.A.what you sayB.a pair of sunglassesC.the listening machineD.a visual sensorE.who have disabilitiesF.living forever in a computer30、People without hearing problems may also be interested in using _______.A.what you sayB.a pair of sunglassesC.the listening machineD.a visual sensorE.who have disabilitiesF.living forever in a computer。

Its date have been helping astronomers predict how common planets are in our galaxy.The telescope focused on hunting planets that might have conditions similar to those on Earth.The authors of a study published in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences conclude that between 14 and 30 out of every 100 stars with a mass and temperature similar to the Sun may host a planet that could support life as we know it.Such a planet would have a diameter at least as large as Earth's but nomore than twice that big.The planet also would have to orbit in a stor's habitable zone. That's where the surface temperature would allow any water to exist as liquid.The new estimate of how many plantes might fit these conditions comes from studying more that 42,000 stars and identifying suitable worlds orbiting them.The scientists used those numbers to extrapolate(推算) to the rest of the stars that the telescope could not see.The estimate is rough，the authors admit. If applied to the solar system，it would define as habitable a zone starting as close ot the Sun as Venus and running to as far away as Mars. Neither planet is Earthlike(although either might have been in the distant pase). Using tighter limits the researchers estimate the between 4 and 8 out of every 100 sunlike stars could host an Earth-sized world.These are ones that would take 200 to 400 days to complete a yearly orbit.Four out of every 100 sunlike stars doesn't sound like a big number. It would mean however that the Milky Way could host more than a billion Earth-sized planets with a chance for life.16.

Anyone hoping to pedal to work there has to contend with steep streets like Canton Avenue，which famously climabs at a nearly 40-degree angle.As a result，some residents avoid biking altogether.2 But University of Pittsburgh graduate Micah Toll，23，and a few friends recently launched an invention that they hope will increase the city's pedal power. An electric bike called to Pulse PEVO. A super-strong battery powers the bicycle. Able to hit nearly 20 miles per hours without pedaling，it zips battery powers the bicycle. Able to hit nearly 20 miles per hour without pedating ，it zips up the city's most daunting(令人却步的)hills.Toll hopes it will persuade people in Pittsburgh and elsewhere to get out of their cars and onto bikes.3 If it sounds like Toll has a knack(窍门) for fixing problems，that's because he does. In high school，he designed a new type of construction beam. It weights no more than a feather pillow but can be used to build sturdy(坚固的)homes for refugees fleeing war or natural disaster.For his work，Toll was invited to attend the Inter International Science and Engineering Fair(Isef)—twice，in 2006 and 2007. The annual competition for young researchers is program of Society for Science&the Public(that's the parent organization of Science News for Kids).Toll says that when it comes to science，he keeps it simple：“You see a problem and say，“How could I solve that?”4 He's not the only to take that approach. Many young researchers get their start by trying to solve a problem or fulfill a need in their own communities.When students dedicate themselves to finding a solution that many benefit their community，“a passion is ignited(点燃)，”says Wendy Hawkins，executive director of the Inter Foundation，which sponsors Intel ISEF."Finding that passion and fostering it can be the key to many students future success."she says.23.

Each of us is different.Psychologists disagree about what is intelligence and what are talents or personal abilities .Psychologists have two different views on intelligence .Somebelieve there is one general intelligence .Others believe there are many different intelligences .Some psychologists say there is one type of intelligence that can be measured with IQ tests .These psychologists support their view with research that concludes that people who do well on one kind of test for mental ability do well on other tests .They do well on tests using words, numbers or pictures. They do well on individual or group tests, and written or oral tests .Those who do poorly on one test, do the same on all tests.Studies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for general intelligence .The brain of intelligence people use less energy during problem solving .The brain waves of people with higher intelligence show a quicker reaction .Some researchers conclude that differences in intelligence result from differences in the speed and effectiveness of information processing by the brain .Howard Gardner, a psychologist at the Harvard School of Education, has four children .He believes that all children are different and shouldn’t be tested by one intelligence test .Although Gardner believes general intelligence exists, he doesn’t think it tells much about the talents of a person outside of formal schooling .He think that the human mind has different intelligences .These intelligences allow us to solve the kinds of problems we are presented with in life .Each of us has different abilities within these intelligences .Gardner believes that the purpose of school should be to encourage development of all of our intelligences .Gardner says that his theory is based on biology .For example ,when one part of the Brain is injured ,other parts of the brain still work .People who cannot talk because of Brain damage can still sing .So ,there is not just one intelligence to lose .Gardner has Identified 8 different kinds of intelligence; linguistic, mathematical, spatial, musical, Interpersonal, intrapersonal, body-kinesthetic(身体动觉的),and naturalistic .31. What is the main idea of this passage?A. How to understand intelligence.B. The importance of intelligence.C. The development of intelligence tests.D. How to become intelligent.32. Which of the following statements is true concerning general intelligence?A. Most intelligent people do well on some intelligence tests.B. People doing well on one type of intelligence test do well on other tests.C. Intelligent people do not do well on group tests.D. Intelligent people do better on written tests than on oral tests.33. Gardner believes that ________.A. children have different intelligences.B. all children are alike.C. children should take one intelligence test.D. there is no general intelligence.34.

Gardner thinks that his theory has a ________ .A. musical foundation.B. biological foundation.C. intrapersonal foundation.D. linguistic foundation.答案：ABADBMusic is one of the most beautiful forms of artistic expression是ever invented. In movies and plays，music has an added function：it not only moves people but also can shock people.Our eardrums can withstand sound within 20 to 80 decibels(分贝).Once sound exceeds this limit，even beautiful music will become ear-splitting noise and harm health.A strong blast(响声) of high sound can twist and break a solid iron sheet.High sound of 150 decibels can kill a healthy rat.In movies，sometimes the hero can produce a sound that ordinary people can't hear and only those who have the same ability can feel.In nature，there is actually sound that is beyond our hearing. In physics，the sound that exceeds 20000Hz is called ultrasonic(超音波的).Dolphins，whales and bats can make suchhigh-frequency sound.It does no harm to health.Sound less than 20Hz is called infrasonic(次声)waves. When we move，the air will vibrate. The vibration of air can produce infrasonic wave.As the frequency of infrasonic waves is close to that of people's internal organs，infrasonic wave may cause resonance(共振) in human bodies. As a result，people's vision may weaken and internal organs may rupture(断裂). However，whether an infrasonic wave can be used as a weapon depends on its intensity. If its intensity is very low，it won't damage internal organs or a person's health. If the intensity of inf让sonic wave exceeds 160 decibels，it is extremely harmful. When wind blows at a force of 3 or 4 over the sea，it will produce infrasonic waves of several decibels. Only typhoons canproduce infrasonic waves of over 100 decibels. At present，scientists can only produce infrasonic weapons in the lab with the help of advanced scientific tools and powerful electric power.36 What could be the best title of the passage?A The power of musicB The harms of noisesC The magic of soundD The discovery of infrasonic waves37 What does the author say about music?A It may be harmful to people's halthB It always cheers people upC It is very often difficult to understandD It sounds better when it is lound enough38 It is true that the soundA of nature is the most beautifulB over 80 decibels is harmful to peopleC of high intensity benefits animalsD in movies is pleasing to the ear39 An ultrasonic soundA is very loudB does harm to people's healthC cannot be heard by peopleD is produced by the hero in movies40 It can be found from the last paragraph that infrasonic wavesA are harmless to people's healthB exist in people's internal organsC can be used as deadly weaponsD can improve eyesight答案：CABCCCompact DisksIf someone says to you your music CDs don't really hold any music on them, and they only have numbers recorded on them, you may not believe it. In fact, he isright in that sound is actually recorded onto the CDs as special numbers —a digital code.1 The code is pressed onto the CD as bumps on a long spiral track almost five kilometers long. These bumps are an average of 0.5 microns wide.A small laser beam shines onto the bumps as the CD turns. The light is reflected back to a receiver that records how the laser light bounces back. This lets the CD player2 turn the reflected light back into the original code. This means you can hear the original code as music.Digital codes are used with many technologies. E-mail needs these kinds of code numbers. Space probes communicate with their ground station on earth using digital codes. Bar codes are read as digital codes in computer systems. Digital communications with cell phones need digital codes. Weather radios also tune into specific signals using these codes.There are many types of compact disks. One format is called CD-RWs. They can be recorded on and re-recorded on(rewritten on)as you would do with a floppy disk3. Another format is the CD-ROM. The technology for recording on these disks is different from other CDs. These CDs have a dye layer that the CD writer can darken or leave clear. The clear and dark spots are the digital code. CD-ROM stands for Compact Disc —Read Only Memory4. This disk is like a "super" floppy disk that can hold lots of information. One CD-ROM can hold the same amount of data as 500 floppy disks. Information is permanently recorded onto it. Computer games and other programs are considered to be CD-ROMs.CDs were first sold to the public in 1982 These CDs still play well and sound fine. Current CDs are expected to last between 70 to 200 years. Of course, you can make sure your CDs last a long time by taking care of them.Science keeps on developing. It may not be many more years before a completely new technology is invented5 and introduced to the public for music recording. In the meantime, there is no doubt you will continue to enjoy listening to your favorite music on CDs6 and playing your favorite computer games onCD-ROMs.41 Music is recorded onto CDs asA laser beamsB digital codesC musical notesD special sounds42 E-mail is mentioned in the third paragraph to showA the variety of digital communicationsB the development of new technologiesC the usefulness of digital codesD the relationship between communication and technology43 One of the differences between CD-RWs and CD-ROMs isA CD-ROMs can be used for longer timeB CD-ROMs cannot be rewritten onC CD-RWs hold more informationD CD-RWs are merely used for music recording44 CDs can last a long time ifA they are seldom usedB they play well and sound fineC their users take good care of themD they are developed with new technology45 It can be inferred from the passage thatA CD-ROMs are more expensive than other CDsB new technology for music recording is being developedC the author likes listening to musicD flppy disks are no longer in use答案：BCBCC第5部分，补全短文Do You Have a Sense of Humor?Humor and laughter are good for us. There is increasing evidence that they can heal us physically，mentally，emotionally，and spiritually. In fact，every system of the body responds to laughter in some positive，healing way. So how can we get more laughter into our lives?(46)Psychologist and author，Steve Wlison，has some answers.Many peoplebelieve that we are born with a sense of humor.They think，“either you've got it，or you don't”Dr.Wilson points out that this false.(47) The parts of brain and central nervous system that control laughing and smiling are mature at birth(48)(After all ，when a baby laughs，we don't rush over and say，“That kid has a great sense of humor!”)A sense of humor is something that you can develop over a lifetime.Sometimes people think that they don't have a good sense of humor because they are not good joke tellers.Dr.Wilson reminds us that telling jokes is only one of many ways to express humor.(49)Then we will make others laugh，too.A person who has a true sense of humor is willing and able to see the funny side of everyday life.One of the best definition of a sense of humor is“the ability to see the nonserious element in a situation.”Consider this sign from a sore window.“Any faulty merchandise will be cheerfully replanced with merchandise of equal quality.”The store manager probably placed the sign in the window to impress customers with the store's excellent service.(50)As Dr.Wilson says，“a good sense of humor means that you don't have to be funny;you just have to see what's funny.”A He advises us to lose our inhibitions(抑制)and try to laugh at ourselves.B Is it possible to develop a sense of humor?C However，that does not mean that infants have a sense of humor.D What is true，however，it that we are born with the capacity to laugh and smileE Everyone experiences this emotionF He had a serious purpose，but if you have a sense of humor，you will probably find the sign funny!答案：BDCAF第6部分：完形填空(第51~65题，每题1分，共15分)Citizen ScientistsUnderstanding how nature responds to climate change will require monitoring key life cycle1 events —flowering, the appearance of leaves, the first frog calls of the spring —all around the world. But ecologists can't be everywhere so they're turning to non-scientists, sometimes called citizen scientists, for help.Climate scientists are not present everywhere. Because there are so many places in the world and not enough scientists to observe all of them, they're asking for your help in observing signs of climate change across the world. The citizen scientist movement encourages ordinary people to observe a very specific research interest —birds, trees, flowers budding, etc. —and send their observations to a giant database to be observed by professional scientists. This helps a small number of scientists track a large amount of data that they would never be able to gather on their own. Much like citizen journalists helping large publications cover a hyper-local beat2, citizen scientists are ready for the conditions where they live. All that's needed to become one is a few minutes each day or each week to gather data and send it in.A group of scientists and educators launched an organization last year called the National Phenology4Network. “Phenology”is what scientists call the study of the timing of events in nature.One of the group's first efforts relies on scientists and non-scientists alike to collect data about plant flowering and leafing every year. The program, called Project Bud Burst, collects life cycle data on a variety of common plants from acrossthe United States. People participating in the project —which is open to everyone —record their observations on the Project Bud Burst website.“People don't have to be plant experts —they just have to look around and see what's in their neighborhood,”says Jennifer Schwartz, an education consultant with the project. “As we collect this data, we'll be able to make an estimate of how plants and communities of plants and animals will respond as the climate changes.”51 A everywhere B anywhere C somewhere D nowher52 A If B Although C When D Because53 A giving B showing C developing D observing54 A special B professional C skillful D ordinary55 A on B at C to D with56 A small B limited C smple D large57 A Very B Much C As D Many58 A All B Any C Some D Most59 A send B print C answer D keep60 A known B featured C belonged D called61 A alike B like C unlike D likely62 A points B wonders C data D interests63 A common B suitable C open D strange64 A want B forget C mind D have65 A who B how C before D since ADDDC BDAAD ACCDB。
