Mom wanted only one thing for her birthday．"Can you find me another copy of this song？"she asked，and handed me a worn-out cassette tape．I knew exactly what was recorded on it：My Redeemer．I heard the song played at least a thousand times while growing up．After so many years，the cassette tape was too worn out to be used．I promised her I would find a replacement．My Redeemer became Mom's favorite song after my younger brother Tim was killed by a drunk driver in 1973．The only thing that helped her calm down was the soulful sound of My Redeemer from the local radio station．We recorded it on a cassette tape so she could listen to it any time she wanted but none of us knew who the soloist（独唱者）was．These days，I thought the song would be easy to find out．I went home and searched the Internet．Several songs with that title popped up，but none of them was the one Mom loved．I got frustrated．Mom's birthday drew near and then one day，I was driving home，listening to our local radio station．A familiar tune came on．It was My Redeemer!As soon as I could，I phoned the station．I got a line on the soloist，who was called Alan Parks．I typed his name into Google and found his home number in South Carolina．Minutes later，I was telling him how much his recording meant to Mom．He offered to ship two CDs out to me personally．I gave him my address．"Red Lion，Pennsylvania？"he said．"Do you know the Logans？""They are our neighbors!""I've been friends with them for 25years，"Alan said．"They'll be at my concert at York Gospel Chapel on April 17th．Would you and your mom come too？"We sure would．Mom was excited to hear Alan sing My Redeemer to her，live in concert-on the evening of her 87th birthday．

本文为记叙文。

文章主要讲了《救世主》这首歌曲对作者的母亲很重要，因为这首歌对作者的母亲来说是个安慰，作者的母亲希望作者能找到这首歌曲的录音带作为生日礼物送给自己，通过作者的努力，最后作者带母亲去现场听了《救世主》主唱的音乐会。

【4题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段中的My Redeemer became Mom's favorite song after my younger brother Tim was killed by a drunk driver in 1973．The only thing that helped her calm down was the soulful sound of My Redeemer from the local radio station．（1973年，我的弟弟蒂姆被一名酒后驾车的司机撞死后，我的《救世主》成了妈妈最喜欢的歌曲。

唯一能帮助她平静下来的是当地电台传来的我的《救世主》深情的声音）
可知，《救世主》这首歌曲对作者的母亲很重要，是因为这首歌对于作者的母亲来说是一个安慰，能让她平静下来。

故B选项正确。

【5题详解】
词义猜测题。

根据上文As soon as I could，I phoned the station．（我第一时间给电台打电话）及划线词所在句I got a line on the soloist，who was called Alan Parks．（这个独唱者是Alan Parks）可知，划线词组意为“得到一些关于……的信息”。

故D选项正确。

【6题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第三段中的He offered to ship two CDs out to me personally．（他主动提出要亲自寄两张CD给我）以及他邀请作者和母亲参加音乐会可知，Alan Parks是一位善良热心的音乐家。

故B选项正确。

【7题详解】
细节理解题。

根据最后一段中的Mom was excited to hear Alan sing My Redeemer to her，live in concert-on the evening of her 87th birthday．（妈妈很高兴的听说，Alan 会在她87岁生日那天晚上为她演唱了《救世主》）可知，音乐会那天正好是作者的母亲的生日，那天去她能去听了音乐会确实是一件最令人吃惊的事情。

故D选项正确。

【点睛】做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择。

在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。

如第3小题，根据第三段中的He offered to ship two CDs out to me personally．（他主动提出要亲自寄两张CD给我）以及他邀请作者和母亲参加演唱会可推知，Alan Parks是一位善良热心的音乐家。

故B选项正确。

C
Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. The philosophy (理念) behind it is: Say “Hello”and stop war.
It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simply saying “Hello”won’t bring about world peace. Still, on a smaller range, the simple act of saying hello to someone can make a lot of difference.
This might not be obvious. After all, it’s such a casual thing and requires so little effort. You raise your head to someone as you pass by them in the school corridor (走廊), say “Hello’then it’s over.
Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Many people are lonely because they’re shy. They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want lo. It leads to them feeling cut off.
On this basis, maybe it’s a good idea, not just on Nov. 21, but every day, to remember to say “Hello”to as many people as we can. The stranger who hears your greeting may secretly smile in their heart. You might even make their day.
Greeting other people is the easiest way to be polite. Politeness is the way we individual humans link up with the rest of the human world outside of our circles of family and friends. Politeness is one of the aspects of culture that make us a society rather than just many individuals living in the same space.
No one said it better than the French author Joseph Joubert: “Politeness is the flower of humanity’’. A “Hello”to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.
8. What is World Hello Day intended for?
A. Philosophy.
B. Peace.
C. Politeness.
D. War.
9. What has an effect on people most?
A. Raising heads to others.
B. Doing something casually.
C. Meeting in the school corridor,
D. The simple act of saying hello.
10Why does someone feel lonely?
A. They are unwilling to communicate with others.
B. They are too shy to communicate with others.
C. They are very fond of living alone.
D. They don’t like doing things as others do.
11. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. We should neglect a small thing.
B. Saying hello lo others is powerful.
C. The flowers make the world better.
D. No one is better than Joseph Joubert.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. B
【解析】

细节理解题。

由第一段Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful.可知，世界问候日的目的在于和平，选B。

【9题详解】
推理判断题。

由第五段On this basis, maybe it’s a good idea, not just on Nov. 21, but every day, to remember to say “Hello”to as many people as we can. The stranger who hears your greeting may secretly smile in their heart. You might even make their day.可推知，一个简单的说“你好”的行为，对人们的影响最大，选D。

【10题详解】
细节理解题。

由第四段Many people are lonely because they’re shy. They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want to.可知，有些人感到孤独是因为他们太胆怯了，以至于不能和别人交流，故选B。

【11题详解】
段落大意题。

根据最后一段A “Hello”to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.可知，虽然对别人说“你好”看似是一件小事，但是这一句小小的问候可能会让世界变得更美好，故选B。

D
Do you ever pull your phone out of your pocket，thinking it is vibrating（振动），
only to find that it isnˈt？This phenomenon，which scientists call"phantom（幻觉的）phone vibration"，is very common．Around 80% of people surveyed say they have imagined their phones vibrating when they were actually still．So，what leads to this universal behavior？According to the BBC，the explanation lies in your brainˈs ability to discover signals from the outside world．When your phone is in your pocket，there are two possible states：it is either vibrating or not．Meanwhile，you also have two possible states of mind：the judgment that the phone is vibrating，or that it isnˈt．Ideally，you match the four states correctly．
However，sometimes your brain decides that the results of missing a call are more serious than a"false alarm"．Therefore，you become more sensitive（敏感的）to vibrations so that you donˈt miss anything．This is just like the fire alarm in your home---it can be annoying when it goes off in response to just a tiny bit of smoke．But thatˈs a small price to pay compared to a fire really breaking out because the alarm fails to alert you．Now，you might still ask：why canˈt our brains just make every judgment correctly without being too sensitive to false signals？The answer is that your brain bears a heavy burden every day．"You get a large amount of sensory(感觉的) information thatˈs coming from your eyes，ears and skin，and you canˈt deal with all that information all the time，"Michael Rothberg，a researcher at Baystate Medical Center in Springfield，US，told Live Science．
For example，the rustling（沙沙声）of clothing or the growling（咕咕声）of your stomach may both lead your brain to believe that they come from the vibration of your phone-it is like trying to hear your name being called in a noisy room．So，perhaps you should just check your phone whenever you think itˈs vibrating．Itˈs not too much trouble to do that，is it？
12. According to this passage，phantom phone vibration ______ ．
A. is common among people with mental problems
B. can measure peopleˈs ability to collect information
C. happens when our brains react sensitively to false signals
D. helps our brains to make very quick and accurate decisions
13. Why is the fire alarm used as an example in this passage？
A. To show us the fire alarm is as sensitive as the phone vibration．
B. To help us understand the cause of phantom phone vibration better．
C. To tell us the phone vibration usually happens when a fire breaks out．
D. To convince us itˈs important to check our phones like checking a fire alarm．
14. According to Michael Rothberg，which is mainly responsible for phantom phone vibration？
A. A noisy background．
B. A lack of much attention．
C. A heavy burden every day．
D. An overflow of sensory information．
15. What does the author suggest we do about phantom phone vibration？
A. We should always fully believe our own sense of listening．
B. We should just check our phones whenever we think theyˈre vibrating．
C. We should ignore the vibration bothering when our phones are actually still．
D. We should think of the vibration carefully before we make correct judgments．【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B
【解析】

文章介绍了人们产生手机振动的幻觉的原因，并给出了解决办法。

【12题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第三段中的However，sometimes your brain decides that the results of missing a call are more serious than a “false alarm"．Therefore，you become more sensitive（敏感的）to vibrations so that you don’t miss anything．（然而，有时你的大脑会认为错过一个电话的后果比“误报”更严重。

所以，你对振动变得更加敏感，因此你不会错过任何事情）可知，当我们的大脑对错误的信号做出敏感的反应时，电话振动幻觉就会发生。

故C选项正确。

【13题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第三段中的This is just like the fire alarm in your home（这就像你
家的火灾报警器一样），this指的电话振动幻觉，由此可推知，这个例子是为帮助我们更好地了解手机振动幻觉的原因。

故B选项正确。

【14题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第三段中的The answer is that your brain bears a heavy burden every day．"You get a large amount of sensory(感觉的) information that’s coming from your eyes，ears and skin，and you can’t deal with all that information all the time，"（答案是你的大脑每天都承受着沉重的负担。

“你的眼睛、耳朵和皮肤会产生大量的感觉信息，你不可能一直处理所有这些信息。

”）可知，每天脑袋接受信息和处理信息的负荷很重，这是产生手机振动幻觉的主要原因。

此题易误选C，C表达的是生活压力大。

故D 选项正确。

【15题详解】
细节理解题。

根据最后一段中的So，perhaps you should just check your phone whenever you think it's vibrating．（所以，当你认为手机在振动的时候也许你应该检查你的手机），可知，当我们感觉手机在振动时，我们应该检查我们的手机。

故B选项正确。
