Play with colorful blocks.BIt’s that time of year when people need to lock their cars. It’s not because there’re lot s of criminals stealing cars. Rather, it’s because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest. Especially with this year’s large crop s, leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to stuff it with zucchini（西葫芦）.My sister, Sharon, recently had a good year of tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they begun to feel their skin turn slightly red. She decided to share her blessings. She called everyone she knew. When that failed, she began asking everyone in the neighborhood, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. “Feel free to take whatever you want,” Sharon told her. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn’t go to waste.A few days later, the neighbor appeared in her house, holding a hot loaf of bread. She smiled,” I wanted to thank you for the tomatoes, and I have to admit I took a few other things too.”Sharon couldn’t think of anything else that had been worth harvesting and said so,” Oh, but you did,” the neighbor said. “You had some of the prettiest zucchiniI’ve ever seen.”Sharon was confused. They hadn’t even planted any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted there were bright-green zucchini in her garden. Sharon decided to go to see where the zucchini had grown. The two of them walked into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables, Sharon smiled,” Well, actually, those are cucumbers that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating.”The neighbor looked at Sharon, shock written all over her face. Then, smiling, she held out the bread she had shared all over the neighborhood. “I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you will like it.”24. What does the underlined word “stuff” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Decorate.B. Swap.C. Fill.D. Exchange.25. What does the author mean by saying “they had begun to feel their skin turn slightly red” in Paragraph 2?A. They thought they ate too many tomatoes.B. They got sunburnt when picking tomatoes.C. They were ashamed that they wasted too many tomatoes.D. They felt embarrassed by not sharing tomatoes with their neighbors.26. How might the neighbor feel after knowing the truth?A. Annoyed.B. Astonished.C. Grateful.D. Embarrassed.27. From the text, we can infer that the neighbor____.A. liked eating bread made of cucumbersB. only picked tomatoes in Sharon’s gardenC. mistook big cucumbers for zucchiniD. went to another neighbor’s garden mistakenlyCWhen someone is happy, can you smell it?You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug. But can you also smell their happiness?Surprising new research suggests that happiness does indeed have a scent, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted through smell, reports .For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them. All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or smokers, and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period.Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers monitored their reactions. Only women were selected to smell the samples, apparently because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signaling—though it's unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents.Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scents—particularly their facial expressions—indicated a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who sniffed them.“Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun Semin, a professor at Koc University in Turkey.This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent, but that the scent is capable of transmitting the emotion to others. The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a scent too. This ensures previous research suggesting that some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings.Researchers have yet to isolate exactly what the chemical compound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine what the potential applications for such a finding could be. Happiness perfumes, for instance, could be invented. Scent therapies（香味疗法）could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety.Perhaps the most surprising result of the study, however, is our broadened understanding of how emotions get communicated, and also how our own emotions arepotentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us.28. What is the main finding of the new research?A. Pleasant feelings can be smelt out.B. Negative emotions have a smell.C. Men produce more sweats.D. Women have a better sense of smell.29. The underlined part “abstain from” in Paragraph 3 probably means _________.A. continueB. practiceC. avoidD. try30. What is the application value of the new research?A. Perfumes could help people understand each other.B. Some smells could be created to improve our appearance.C. Perfumes could be produced to cure physical diseases.D. Some smells could be developed to better our mood.31.What should be the main idea for the passage? .A. Happiness comes from a scent of sweatB. Our emotions influence our smells.C. people need more emotional communicationD. Happiness does have a scent.DWhile most of us are happy to take the credit when things go well, few of us are willing to take the blame when things go wrong. Rather than trying to hide our shame or embarrassment, experts found that we are simply less aware when our actions result in a negative outcome.The research may explain why we often feel it hard to take the blame for our actions.“Our result suggests that people may really experience less responsibility for negative than for positive outcomes,” said Patrick Haggard, leading researcher and professor of the institute of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London.In a series of tests, participants were asked to press a key. A sound then followed, either disapproving, neutral or approving, and they were then asked to estimate the time between the action and when they had heard the sound.Researchers found that individuals experienced different levels of responsibility depending on the outcomes. They also discovered they were significantly slower to recognize if their actions had resulted in a bad consequence, compared to when they had done well.“Effectively, we have found that we experience a negative outcome differently, not just retell it differently. We make a weaker connection when there is a bad result. And respond much more strongly when something good happens,”said Professor Haggard. When something goes right, everyone wants to take the credit, and when things go wrong, nobody is interested in putting their hands up.The researchers said ou r brain is“very much concerned”with reward, as good results are key to survival. Although our own perception(认知) of whether we are guilty of something or not is changed by the outcomes, this does not provide a defense if we have done something wrong.“Our e xperience of our own responsibilities can be misleading and can be strongly colored by the outcomes of our actions.”said Professor Haggard.“We have to take responsibility for what actually do, not just for how we experience things.”32. People who don’t ta ke the blame for their actions .A.always try to hide their shame or embarrassment.B.are only willing to take the credit when things go wellC.feel less responsible for negative than for positive outcomesD.are less aware of what to do when a negative outcome happens33. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Our level of responsibility can be strongly affected by the outcomes of our actions.B.When something bad happens, nobody is interested in dealing with the problem.C.People were quicker to recognize if their actions had resulted in a bad consequence.D.Participants were asked to count the time between pressing a key and hearing the sound.34. How is the passage developed?A.By giving examples.B.By quoting research findings.C.By analyzing cause and effect.D.By providing data.35. According to the passage, a person who is concerned with reward is .A.awkwardB.naturalC.absurdD.stubborn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。

I used to complain about the big hill on the route as I approached it, but my attitude to the hill has now changed. I tell myself the following: this hill will exercise my heart and lungs; it will help me to lose weight and get fit; it will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationary(不移动的) exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free.I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life.Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote, “Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambitioninspired an d success achieved.”One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity (逆境). From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents, and difficulties. While we cannot choose the adversity, we can choose our attitude towards it.Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident. He was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading pilots in the Battle of Britain with 22 air attack victories over the Germans. He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said, “Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you can't do this or that. Make up your mind. Have a go at everything. You'll never use a walking stick. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”The biographies of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcomethe difficulties they faced. The common thread is that they did not become depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won. Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.24. What can be learned from the passage?A. People are silly to pay to go to the gym.B. Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise.C. Those who want to achieve success can't expect to live an easy life.D. People's attitude towards adversity is the only factor that determines whether they will succeed.25. By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us “________”.A. Failure is the mother of success.B. Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.C. If you venture nothing, you will have nothing.D. A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit.26. Following this passage, the author will further talk about ________.A. why it is important to keep optimistic in face of adversityB. how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the adversity he facedC. what great people have in commonD. what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adversity you face27. Which of the following can best function as the title of the passage?A. Face Adversity with a SmileB. Different Attitudes towards AdversityC. Nothing is ImpossibleD. Life Is Full of AdversityCA new ingredient developed by scientists in Scotland could mean that ice-cream lovers can enjoy their treats longer before they melt. The scientists estimate that theslow-melting product could become available in three to five years. The development could also allow products to be made with lower levels of fat and fewer calories.Research teams at the Universities of Edinburgh and Dundee have discovered that the protein, known as BsIA, works by combining together the air, fat and water in ice cream. It is also said to prevent gritty ice crystals from forming - ensuring a fine, smooth taste.Prof Cait MacPhee, of the University of Edinburgh's school of physics and astronomy, who led the project, said: “It's n ot completely non-melting because you do want your ice cream to be cold. It will melt eventually but hopefully by keeping it stable for longer BsIA will stop it from dripping.”The team developed a method of producing the protein ——which occurs naturally in some foods as friendly bacteria. Prof MacPhee said it works by keeping oil and water mixed together, stops air from escaping and coats the ice crystals in ice cream which stops them from melting so quickly.She told BBC Radio 5 Live: “This is a natural p rotein already in the food chain. It's already used to ferment(使发酵) some foods so its a natural product rather than being a 'Frankenstein' food. By using this protein we're replacing some of the fat molecules(分子) that are currently used to stabilise these oil and water mixtures so it can reduce the fat content, but it shouldn't taste any different.”She said it also had the prospect of reducing the sugar content and could be used in other foods such as chocolate mousse and mayonnaise to help reduce the calories. The researchers believe using the ingredient could benefit manufacturers too as it can be processed without impacting on performance and can be produced from sustainable raw materials.28. What's the author's attitude towards the new ingredient?A. FavorableB. DoubtfulC. NeutralD.Critical29. What is BsIA according to the passage?A. It makes the new product get more calories.B. It is invented by scientists from Britain.C. It completely stops the melting process.D. It serves as harmless bacteria in foods.30. What does the underlined word “gritty” probably mean?A. good-lookingB. sweetC. roughD. tough31. What is the passage mainly about?A. The making of a new ice cream.B. Benifits of protein BsIA.C. The finding of a recent study.D. Ways to produce healthier food.DA new genre(流派) of fiction has come out of rising sea levels. Climate fiction, or “cli-fi”, is a sub-genre of science fiction. It imagines a future where man struggles against the extremes of a changing environment.Although it is still an unexplored field in the Chinese literary circle, climate change literature is now a regular course in universities in the US, the UK and India, etc. A brief search of “climate fiction” returns more than 1,800 results, reflecting a growing demand for books that focus on environmental issues.According to The Atlantic, cli-fi stories seldom talk about “unreal technologies or faraway planets”, unlike traditional sci-fi. Cli-fi is a lot more down to earth. It examines the effects of pollution, rising sea levels, and global warming on human civilization.Cli-fi has been made more attractive to younger generations thanks to its appearance in movies and TV shows, Interstellar, Snowpiercer, Madd Addam,just to name a few. The term “cli-fi” created by US writer and climate activist Dan Bloom, seems to be helping “raise the awareness of global warming”. UK cli-fi writer Sarah Holding wrote that the genre “connects young readers with their environment”.But not everyone is convinced of cli-fi’s potential. Geoge Marshall, founder of Clim ate Out-reach Information Network, expressed concern that cli-fi would strengthen what people already believe rather than change anyone’s mind. “The unconvinced will see these stories as proof that this issue is a fiction.” he said. “The already convinced will be still concerned, but the story lines may reduce the seriousness of the issue.”32. Cli-fi can be defined as ______.A. a literature styleB. a solution to the environmental issuesC. a presentation of extremes nowadaysD. a course taught in universities33. According to Paragraph 2, it is inferred that ______.A. the course on climate change literature is the most welcome in universitiesB. cli-fi has gained great popularity so farC. Chinese writers are not concerned with the issue of climate changeD. focuses a lot on environmental issues34. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 implies ______.A. cli-fi is more realisticB. cli-fi is more attractiveC. cli-fi arouses people’s concern about the changing environmentD. cli-fi describes mostly about the earth where we live35. The author develops the passage by the following means EXCEPT ______.A. taking examplesB. analyzing cause and effectC. giving comparisonD. presenting data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。
