21．（6分）Before I studied psychology, I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred. While I was right about that, I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke. When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laugh—and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be.
I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out. The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. The joke wasn’t only funny, it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians. That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.
The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors, the more the person will like it. For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren’t jealous of him.
In short, we don’t laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke. I strongly discourage making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh. All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a person’s emotions, he will certainly like it a lot.
1、What did the author find out after studying psychology?
A．Only good jokes make people laugh
B．Many factors lead to people laughing.
C．Funny things can make people laugh
D．Laughter can make people healthy.
2、Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians?
A．They played a trick on the pedestrians.
B．The pedestrians behaved in a funny way.
C．They could feel the pedestrians’ happiness.
D．Their emotion was approved of by the show.
3、What does the underlined wor d “belittling” probably mean?
A．Annoy B．Blame
C．Look down on D．Make up to
22．（8分）As a little girl growing up in the early 1960s in a suburb of Pittsburgh, it was not always easy to find role models, But I was lucky. In my childhood, I knew smart, strong women who had accomplished much, one of whom invented the world’s first computer compiler (编译器).
Recently, though, I learned about a role model who was right under my nose—my own mother.
Growing up, I knew she had worked as a secretary before I was born. I knew that she had joined the W A VES—the Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service branch of the U.S. Naval Reserve (海军预备队)—during World War Ⅱ. And I knew she’d worked in an office that was involved with codes (编码). But when she talked about it—rare, because she had been sworn to secrecy—she described her duties as ordinary, routine. I never questioned it. After all, the woman I knew was a reserved suburban mom.
Not long ago, a chance conversation with a colleague led me to the book, Code Girls. It tells the story of the W A VES, who decrypted (解码) and encrypted secret messages during the war. They worked around the clock, knowing that the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers—their brothers, husbands, fathers—were on the line.
Inspired, I began a journey to explore the mystery of my mother’s service that continues to this day. I got some of her working records about her unit, OP19. In two
years, she was promoted three times. She was no secretary, and her duties were hardly ordinary.
My mother always encouraged my interest in science and insisted to my father that I go to college. “Y ou’re going to grow up to be another Madame Curie,” she told me. She was always pointing at other women. She did not see herself as someone to model on. Neither did I. Now I see her differently.
1、Why didn’t the author’s mother tell the truth about her job?
A．She was afraid of being fired by her company.
B．She thought her job was just unremarkable.
C．She thought secretary was better than her real job.
D．She knew well what to be expected of her career.
2、Which of the following words can best describe the authors mother?
A．Devoted and faithful. B．Ambitious and reserved. C．Cooperative and sincere. D．Hardworking and skeptical.
3、What can we learn from the text?
A．The author do ubted her mother’s job when she was a child.
B．The author’s mother saw herself as an example to follow.
C．Code Girls’ job is more important than that of the soldiers.
D．Code Girls inspired the author to learn more of her mother.
4、Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Code Girls, My Favourite Book.
B．Mom, My Real Role Model.
C．The OP19, A Buried Secret.
D．W AVES, A Mysterious Organization.
23．（8分）A report says older adults who test their minds with increasingly difficult projects have better mental ability than those who do less demanding activities.
To keep our brains sharp as we age, we are often told to keep our minds active. As the old saying goes, “Use it or lose it.” But, there is very little scientific evidence to support than.
D enise Park is head of the university’s Center for ? Vital Longevity. She designed a study in which she and her tern placed 221 healthy aging and older adults into one of three groups.
“We asked people to learn new things, like quilting or photography. We a sked other people to just do fun things like being in a social group function but were not likely to have a very large effect.”
The subjects took part in their assigned activities for 15 hours a week over three months. At the end of that time, the researchers found that the adults who learned new skills, such as digital photography, showed the greatest improvements on memory tests.
No improvements were seen in the results of those in the social group that did activities together like going on field trips. There were also no improvements among the third group that listened to classical music or did crossword puzzles.
Denise Park believes one reason for improved memory in the active learning group is that its members were being pushed to learn new skills. The other groups took part in what she call receptive activities. Learning new skills may not cure age-related mental decline. But, Ms. Park thinks being mentally active slows down the process.
Denise Park says the latest information shows that the improvements lasted for at least a year. She and her team plan to do longer follow-up studies with all three groups. She also is interested in learning whether taking part in demanding mental activities delays the development of conditions like Alzheimer’s disease.
1、What may the social group be asked to do?
A．Learn to take photos.
B．Listen to music at home.
C．Go hiking together.
D．Do the dishes.
2、What did Denise Park and her team find?
A．Doing more exercise can help slow down our age-related mental decline. B．Having a relaxing life is beneficial to keeping our minds sharp.
C．Keeping our minds active is associated with our health.
D．Learning new skills may help to keep our minds active.
3、If you want to keep your brain sharp you could_______.
A．go swimming with your friends.
B．play chess with your family.
C．learn how to repair the computer.
D．do crossword puzzles online
4、The text is likely to be selected from a book of______.
A．medicine B．education
C．aging D．science
24．（8分）Every year from March to October, Christian Moullec, also known as “Birdman,” takes to the skies aboard his adapted light aircraft. However, the
58-year-old Frenchman’s daily 30-minute flight is not just to enjoy the impressive views, but to guide flocks (鸟群) of lesser white-fronted geese (小白额雁) through safe migration paths which the birds can teach future generations.
His deed began in 1995 when he noticed their declining population in the wilds of Lapland, Sweden. To prevent their numbers from dropping further, Moullec tried to get the threatened species to follow him along migration routes that would protect them from bird hunters.
However, getting grown geese to follow his lead proved challenging. As young geese imitate and follow whomever they view as their parent, Moullec decided to raise the geese from birth.
To help raise funds and awareness of his job to protect not just the geese but birds worldwide, Moullec often allows paying tourists to join him on the 30-minute-long flights aboard his aircraft. In addition to the trained birds flying alongside them, visitors, who come from as far as a 15-hour plane flight away, are treated to a variety of crane and geese species as well as breathtaking views of castles and cities.
He often brings his camera along for the flights, capturing photos not just for their beauty, but for what they describe. Moullec believes the use of agricultural chemicals has done harm to wild European birds, with more than a third disappearing in the last 30 years. “It's a disaster,” he said. “My beautiful images with flying birds should be used to tell this story. ”
1、Why does “Birdman” always fly to the sky on his aircraft?
A．To observe geese along their migration routes.
B．To follow geese through safe migration paths.
C．To take visitors to operate his adapted aircraft.
D．To guide geese fly safely during the migration.
2、What do we know about “Birdman”？
A．He is a nature lover. B．He is a bird watcher.
C．He is a volunteer pilot. D．He is a bird hunter.
3、What does Moullec often take photos in his flights for?
A．Recording the use of agricultural chemicals.
B．Showing serious damage caused by chemicals.
C．Describing his experiences with flying birds.
D．Capturing the beautiful views of birds and cities.
4、What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Birdman Guides Flocks to Learn to Fly.
B．Birdman Finds Birds Disappearing.
C．Birdman Helps Flocks Safely Migrate.
D．Birdman Protects Birds From Hunters.
25．（10分）With golden sunshine and a gentle breeze, autumn is the most beautiful season in the year. This is a great time to go outside and have fun. Go to a valley to see red maple trees, go and pick fruit in an orchard or find an open field to fly your kite in.
However, for many high school students, these great activities may be just a dream. With plenty of work to do, they spend all their hours indoors, struggling for a high mark in their exams. Of course, study is one of the most important things for teenagers. But life is definitely much more than that.
Sometimes we spend so much time studying that we forget how to make life wonderful. In doing so, we lose the real purpose of life — to be a valuable and happy person. To enjoy just how great it is to be alive, we have to put down our books and pens and look around us. Students, take some exercise to improve your health, talk with your parents and friends for understanding and walk around outside to refresh your body and mind.
Going out and enjoying the beautiful countryside often helps our creativity in our work. Chinese craftsman, Lu Ban, created a saw to help woodworkers. But if he hadn’t walked outside, he would not have been inspired by a kind of toothed grass. We could also suppose if Newton hadn’t rested under that apple tree, then he wouldn’t have been hit by an apple, and his classic theories would not have come out.
Going out is not only a break from hard work, but a chance to add to life experience. So come on, give your brain a good rest. Step out of the books and get your bag ready for an autumn outing. We are sure you will get much more than knowledge
from the exciting journey.
1、In which paragraph does the writer make a summary about his opinion? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2.
C．Paragraph 5. D．Paragraph 4.
2、Why is going out a dream for many high school students?
A．They are unhappy to do so.
B．Their parents don’t allo w them to do so.
C．They think study is the most important thing for them.
D．They have too much work to do for getting high marks in the exams.
3、The passage is developed mainly by .
A．making predictions
B．reasoning and giving examples
C．describing the beautiful scenery in Autumn
D．pointing out the present situation of high school students
4、What message can you get from the passage?
A．Nature is power.
B．All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
C．The author isn’t happy with our education at all.
D．Going out can make high school students get more.

23、Trapped under six stories of ruins after the Haiti earthquake leveled his hotel, Dan Woolley believed he was going to die. But rather than give in to despair, the
film-maker spent 65 hours beneath the earth looking up ways t treat his injuries on his iPhone. He also wrote a moving diary for his family, thinking they would only read his last message of love and comfort after his death. Instead, he was pulled from the disaster after a week-and will soon be reunited with his family.
Mr. Woolley had travelled from America to Haiti with his colleague David Hames. Both had been working for charity. He was in the entrance-hall when the earthquake struck and just had time to dive into a comer before the building fell. Buried under tons of ruins, the film-maker downloaded a first aid application to his iPhone. He used the light from the iPhone to show him his injuries and diagnosed it properly as a broken leg. Then, he used the instructions from the app to treat the serious bleeding. The app advised him not to go to sleep if he felt he was going into shock. The resourceful Mr. Woolley set his phone alarm to go off every 20 minutes to keep him awake. New technology has played a huge part.
Mr. Woolley used a small black notebook to write messages to his family. He had thought his relatives would read them after he was dead. “I was in a big accident. Don’t be upset at God,” he wrote, “I’m still praying that God will get me out, but He may not. But He will always take care of you.”
Mr. Woolley was eventually located by a French rescue team and removed to the
U.S. where he was reunited with his wife. Speaking after being flown to Miami for surgery, he said, “Boy, I cried. I wanted to use that time to do everything I could for my family. If it could be just to leave some notes that would help them in life, I would do that.”
He is now looking forward to seeing his family.
5、In the diary, Mr. Woolley noted his family.
A．he was looking for ways to survive
B．his iPhone was more than useful
C．he wanted to do something for his family
D．this might be his last messages of love
6、Which of the following statements is not wrong?
