Dan 52 his head. “We could put it on the coffee table. It just might 53 ! Let’s try it!”

第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2份,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
People should be warned against using mobile phones outdoors in stormy weather because they may “be struck by lightning”,according to doctors.
Three experts have described how a teenage girl was struck by lightning while using her phone in a large London park.The girl,aged 15,recovered,but a year later was still wheelchair-bound and found to be suffering complex physical and emotional problems.
The girl also had a perforate eardrum on the side where she had been holding the mobile phone.She was having general recovery in Northwick Park Hospital,Middlesex.
Swinda Esprit,a doctor of the hospital, said that while the brain and muscle damage was similar to that of many lightning victims—who can experience heart attacks on being struck—the ear problems were not.
She said that the damages were particularly relevant for people who might be involved in less serious lightning incidents,who might otherwise recover, but would never get their full hearing back if struck while on the phone.
“We were shocked by the damage,which is why we wanted to draw attention to it,”Dr Esprit said.“A year on and she still was suffering these difficult hearing.”
They added that three other cases had been reported in newspapers in China,South Korea,and Malaysia.In the Malaysian case,a sales executive was killed by lightning while talking on his phone during a thunderstorm near Kuala Lumpur.
“All these events resulted in death,”the doctors wrote.“This rare phenomenon is a public health issue,and education is necessary to stress the risk.”
The Australian Lightning Protection Standard recommends that metallic objects,including cordless or mobile phones,should not be carried outdoors during thunderstorms.However, “the United States National Weather Service says on its website that both are safe to use “because there is no direct path between you and the lightening”.
Paul Taylor, of “the Met Office'’,said the ear injuries were a consequence of mobile phones being metal,and not related to radio waves.
Mr. Taylor said that mobile phones should be treated as another piece of metal,similar to carrying coins or wearing rings,and people need to be warned against the possible danger.
56.From the passage we can know that the girl ________.
A. completely recovered from being struck. B.She was struck by lightning at schoo1.
C.She still suffered from mental problems. D.She had to press her ear all day.
57.The underlined part “a perforate eardrum” in Paragraph 3 is closed in meaning to ________.
A. an emotional problem B. an operation on the ear
C. a problem with the ear D. an injury on the face
58.Why did doctors stress the risk about using phones outside in lightening?
A.Because more people are faced with it. B.Because some deaths have been caused.
C.Because lightning is harmful for the brain. D.Because a teenage girl got killed.
59.We can know from the last three paragraphs that .
A.both cordless and mobile phones are safe to use outside in lightning
B.there is no direct connection between lightning and ear injuries at all
C.ear injuries are the result of carrying coins or wearing rings in lightning
D.opinions differ as to whether it is safe to use mobiles phones in lightning
60.The purpose in writing this passage is .
A.to draw attention to the risk of using mobile phones in lightening
B.to focus on various damages done to lightning victims
C.to tell us the news that a teenage girl was struck by lightning
D.to stress the danger of making phone calls in lightning
B
Less than half of the children in America who are chosen for a free breakfast take advantage of the USDA-provided meal.A program called " Breakfast in the Classroom" is trying to get more lower-income students to eat breakfast.The program, managed by a group of organizations known as the Partners for Breakfast in the Classroom, brings food to the students in class after the morning bell.That way, students don't come to school early just to eat, and they aren't rushing to get to class, skipping breakfast on the way.The program was carried out in five school districts around the country and expanding to include ten more this school year.
Research suggests that there are educational benefits to eating breakfast at school, even over students who eat the meal at home.These include better attendance, behavior and higher standardized test scores.
Knox County School in Tennessee, which opened its doors to students on August 14, is a newcomer to the in-classroom meal program.
Jon Dick, the director of school nutrition for Knox County, told CNN that there are several advantages to eating breakfast in class."The students are in their seats ready to learn as soon as the bell rings," Dick said."It reduces discipline issues and provides an opportunity for teachers to develop relationships," he continued.
In Knox County, as in many other districts using the program, all the students are served breakfast at no cost to the student, regardless of their family's income.Dick said doing that increases the percentage of students who eat breakfast overall, and leads to social benefits. " Relationships are developed when people have food together," Dick said.
The district's teachers say they also benefit from eating with their students, by building relationships and incorporating lessons into the morning meal.
Dick says that most parents are in favor of the program, too.The only negative comments he's heard are from parents who are concerned that providing free breakfasts uses local tax money that should be used for education.Dick says that these parents are mistaken.Most school nutritional services departments in U.S., he says, are self sufficient.They rely on federal USDA money, state funds, and money that students spend on lunch."We take no money locally and have to be financially sustainable," Dick says.
61 .What type of writing the article likely to be ?
A. A science report B. A news report
C. A research experiment D. A story of school life
62. We can find from the first paragraph that in USA ____.
A.students from lower-income families need help
B.lower-income students never have breakfast
C.students must go to school before breakfast
D.poor students usually live in the countryside
63.Jon Dick thinks that the program ____.
A.helps students to keep fit B.makes teachers get up early
C.makes students get up early D.helps teachers to cooperate well
64.The district's teachers also benefit from the program because ____.
A.they save a lot of money B.the breakfast is delicious
C.they can learn more about students D.they can learn something with students
65.Parents who are not in favor of the program worry that ____.
A.the school nutritional services lack of standards
B.providing free breakfasts uses education funds
C.federal USDA money will not sustainable
D.more students will want to have free lunch
C
Why laughter matters
Although most people believe that laughter is one of the nature’s great treatments for a whole range of mental and physical diseases, it is still a serious scientific subject that researchers are trying to figure out.
“Laughter above all else is a social thing,” says Baltimore neuroscientist, Robert Provine, who has studied laughter for decades. “All laughter groups laugh ‘ha-ha-ha’ basically the same way. Whether you speak Mandarin, French or English, everyone will understand laughter. There is a pattern generator(发生器) in our brain that produces this sound.”
Laughing is our first way of communicating. Babies laugh long before they speak. No one teaches them how to laugh. They just do. People may laugh at a trick on April Fools’ day. But surprisingly, only 10 to 15 percent of laughter is the result of someone making a joke. Laughter is mostly about social responses rather than to a joke. Deaf people laugh without hearing and people on cell phones laugh without seeing, showing that laughter isn’t dependent on single sense but on social interactions.
And laughter is not just a people thing. Chimps tickle each other and even laugh when another chimp pretends to tickle them.
Jaak Panksepp, a Bowling Green University Psychology professor, studies rats that laugh when he tickles them. It turns out rats love to be tickled—they return again and again to the hands of researchers tickling them.
By studying rats, scientists can figure out what’s going on in the brain during laughter. Northwestern University biomedical engineering professor, Jeffrey Burgdorf has found that laughter in rats produces a chemical that acts as an antidepressant(抗抑郁药). He thinks the same thing probably happens in humans, too. This would give doctors a new chemical target to develop drugs that can fight depression.
Even so, laughter itself has not been proved to be the best medicine, experts said. Margaret Stuber, a professor at University of California, studied whether laugher helped patients. She found that distraction(分心) and mood improvement helped, but she could not find a benefit of laughter alone.
“No study has shown that laughter produces a direct health benefit,” Provine said, largely because it’s hard to separate laughter from just feeling good. But he thinks it doesn’t really matter: “Isn’t the fact that laughter feels good when you do it enough?”
66. What is the most important finding of Robert Provine’s research?.
A. laughter is a social response shared by all creatures
B. laughter depends on different senses
C. laughter is a quality people are born with
D. laughter makes a person feel good
67. According to the passage, why did scientists study rats?
A. They wanted to find if they can laugh
B. They wanted to find if they like laughing
C. They wanted to fond what laughter in rats produces
D. They wanted to find how rats react while being tickled
68. We know from the passage_________.
A. patients will recover if they laugh enough.
B. laughter is a means of communication as well as language.
C. a new medicine has been developed based on the laughter research.
D. scientists can know what is happening in a human brain when he laughs.
69. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
A.
B.
C.
D.
CP: Central point P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) C: Conclusion
D
My six-year-old came home from school this week with two envelopes. One was for a donation to help people in the Philippines. The other was to help hungry families have a Thanksgiving meal.
“I’ll put a check in each of these. Then you can add your own money from your piggy bank, okay?” I said, thinking he’d be so excited to put his own stamp on things.
“That’s okay, mom. You put money in. I don’t want to waste mine,” he sweetly sang as he colored. “I want to fill my bank all the way up.”
Ack! I guess I know what our dinnertime discussion will be about tonight, I thought.
I had figured that through watching his parents donate items, helping us take toys from time to time to needy kids and putting money in the basket at church, he would just understand why it was important to help people in need — and even want to do it himself.
But of course he doesn’t really understand yet. “There’s a big disconnect between the people ‘over there’ and my piggy bank,” said parenting educator Vicki Hoefle.
“There’s nothing wrong with the child. There’s just no connection.”
As for having that conversation immediately, or forcing my son to put money into the envelopes: “Try not to do it now,” Hoefle said. Teaching a child about donating their own money or toys or time to people in need “should be a gentle introduction into what we hope will be a way of life for our kids.”
She suggested these things to help children understand the importance of giving:
* Just talk about it. Then explore the issue from a perspective he can understand.
* Use the course of a year to introduce kids to opportunities. That way, they won’t be shocked when you ask them to stuff their own money into an envelope (like this writer just did).
* Pick a family charity for the year and have a conversation about how you all can help throughout the year.
* Think of this not as something you must teach, but as something to expose them to.
At her house, Hoefle said, “When you got something new, you gave something up.” Each birthday, her children would pick what toys they had outgrown and give them away. “There was a comfort in it. It just became a natural part of the kids’ lives.”
So I will fill those envelopes alone this time. But I’ll make sure he understands why they should be filled—gradually.
70. When the writer asked her son to give money to help the poor, he __________.
A. sang a sweet song B. declined to donate
C. put all his money in a bank D. seemed very surprised
71.What does the author try to express in the underlined sentence ?
A. Parents should be responsible for the children’s not donating money.
B. Children have nothing to do with charity.
C. We should taught children about charity in practice gradually.
D. It is right for children not to donate the money in their piggy banks.
72. Hoefle’s attitude towards children’s unwillingness to donate money can be best described as “___________”.
A. tolerant B. critical C. positive D. worried
73. Which of the following is Hoefle’s approach to educating kids about charity?
A. Giving courses about charity.
B. Setting a rule for children to give.
C. Giving children enough real life chances.
D. Inviting a lot of poor people home.
74. What can we learn about the writer from the passage?
A. She invited a parenting educator home for advice.
B. She taught her son a lesson over dinner that evening.
C. She is at a loss as for what she should do next.
D. She often makes donations for people in need.
75. What is the best title of the passage?
A. How can we help kids learn generosity?
B. Why are kids unwilling to donate?
C. Kids, please help those in need.
D. Kindness is lost in the young generation.

第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
[1]Many women write to me confused about why they can’t form close friendships. They try new approaches, put themselves in all the right places, see therapists, and read relevant self-help books. They consider themselves interesting, loyal, kind and friend-worthy people. But for reasons unknown to them, they have a tough time forming close relationships. Many admit to not having even one close friend.
[2]A recent study published in the Journal of personality and Social Psychology offers some clues as to how both nature (personality) and nurture (experience) impact our friendships. Researchers at the University of Virginia and University of Toronto, Mississauga studied more than 7,000 American adults between the ages of 20 and 75 over a period of ten years, looking at the number of times these adults moved during childhood. Their study, like prior ones, showed a link between moves and adult well-being: The more times participants moved as children, the poorer the quality of their adult social relationships.
[3]But digging deeper, the researchers found that personality--------specifically being introverted(内向的) or extroverted(外向的)--------could either strengthen or weaken the effect of moving to a new town or neighborhood during childhood. The negative impact of more moves during childhood was far greater for introverts compared to extroverts.
[4]“Moving a lot makes it difficult for people to maintain long-term close relationships,” stated Dr. Shigehiro Oishi, the first author of the study, in a press release from the American Psychological Association, “This might not be a serious problem for outgoing people who can make friends quickly and easily. Less outgoing people have a harder time making new friends.”
[5]Families often have to move to different places -------- across town, across the country, or across the globe. Yet, in many cases, their kids and young adolescents haven’t yet built up a bank of friendships. So the traditional wisdom is to try to reduce moves as low as possible for the sake of your child, whenever possible , and to move at the end of the academic year.
76. What’s the passage mainly about?(no more than 6 words)
77. What did the researchers find in their study?(no more than 9 words)
78. Why do moves during childhood have greater effect on introverts than extroverts?(no more than 16 words)
79. What nature strengthen the effect of moving?(no more than 2 words)
