A1. Each student has_______ classes at school on Monday.A. fourB. fiveC. sixD. seven2. Students can learn how to ___________ on Monday.A. write reports on dramasB. play basketballC. make a videoD. surf the Internet3.. Which statement is TRUE according to the schedule?A.

Students are allowed to have about an hour's lunch break.D Students should write a report for physics after school.BIt's common for a child to lose his or her baby tooth during the growth. What do children do when they lose baby teeth? People around the world do it differently.A custom in the US, England, Canada, Australia and some other English-speaking countries is that children put their baby tooth under their pillow before going to bed. They believe the tooth fairy comes during the night and leave a coin in exchange for their tooth. Of course, we know that the money is not from the tooth fairy. Their parents do it, instead.In some European countries, it is a common practice to bury the baby tooth in the earth. The tooth might be buried in the garden or in the surrounding field. However, since most of the people now find themselves living in towns or cities, they begin placing the teeth in small flowerpots. It's done so that the permanent (永久的) tooth will grow in its place.Putting a tooth under a pillow sounds sweet, and putting a tooth under the ground or in a flowerpot sounds safe, but what about throwing those teeth around? In some Asian countries, that‘s just what people do. Children throw a lower tooth up onto the roof and an upper one is thrown down on the ground, or hidden under the bed. It is done so that the new upper tooth grows downwards, while the new lower tooth upwards.Some countries even have more interesting traditions. In Nigeria, if you’re a boy, you hold your tooth and eight stones in your fist. Girls hold six stones and their tooth in their fist. The children then close their eyes and state their names. They then say, "Oh, I want my tooth back!" Next, they throw everything in their fist up in the air and run away as fast as they can. In Mongolia, the baby is given to a young dog. There, the dog is respected and considered to be able to protect people. If the dog likes the baby tooth and eats it, it's said that a strong tooth will grow again.1. How many different traditions about the baby tooth are mentioned in the passage?A. FourB. FiveC. SixD. Seven2. Why do people in Asia throw their baby teeth around in different ways?A. Because it means nothing but it is only a tradition.B. Because they think that the teeth are useless to them.C. Because they have no other places to store these teeth.D. Because they expect their new teeth to grow in a correct way.3. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. A kid in the UK hides his baby tooth under a pillow to get some money.B. People in Europe usually bury their baby teeth in different places.C. In Nigeria, boys and girls like to play games with their baby teeth.D. In Mongolia, people think dogs can help them to have strong teeth.4. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?A. There are different traditions to do with the baby tooth in the world.B. The baby tooth means something different to people in different countries.C. When children lose baby teeth, they like to do some different things with them.D. Most children in the world hope to have stronger teeth when they lose baby teeth.CPeople. com reported that Gregg Murset and his wife, Kami, decided to take their six children, ranging from 7 to 16 years old, from their home in Phoenix, Arizona, across the country to spend 20 days on the road to help 25 families in need. "I told the kids and my wife over breakfast that wanted to do this." Gregg Murset, 40, told People. com. "They all looked at me like was crazy." he said "but when we started to read the stories of people we were going to help, their attitudes completely changed."Through Gregg's company, he was able to be matched with groups such as Autism Speaks, the Leukemia& Lymphoma Society, and others that connected the Mursets to families with children who have cancer and other serious illnesses.The family traveled to many cities in their journey, including Albuquerque, Denver, Kansas City, Chicago, and Buffalo. The trip covered 6, 500 miles. "It's been amazing to watch my own children open their eyes and see that the world is bigger than they think," he said. "Even the little kids are learning from this experience."And the families they've helped feel blessed to have met them. "They showed up at 8 a.m. and we had a list of things we needed help with, said Jim Spencer, a 61-year-old father in Warren, Michigan, whose 12-year-old daughter, Lexi, was diagnosed with cancer a couple of years ago.For Gregg, the main purpose of the trip was to teach his children to care about the happiness of other people rather than for themselves. "There is nothing wrong with your kid getting off the sofa, doing some work and sweating, said Gregg. "It's good for the kid and it's good for the soul."1. How did the kids. feel when Gregg Murset first told the family about his plan?A. Amazed.B. Excited.C. Disappointed.D. Worried.2. What did the family mainly do during their trip?A. They toured places of interestB. They visited patients in hospital.C. They worked with social groupsD. They helped families in need.3. Jim needed help because_________?A. He was diagnosed with cancer,B. Her daughter was badly ill.C. The Greg's family showed up.D. It's good for the kid and the soul.4. During the trip, Gregg most wanted his kids to_________?A. increase physical exerciseB. gain more geography knowledgeC. learn to care about othersD. improve their communication skillsDIt was already 8: 30 in the morning. Lin Tao, a 14-year-old schoolboy, still didn’t show up at school. He was often late for-school! The teacher called his father and got to know he played computer games online late the night before and couldn’t get up that morning. In fact, he had played online games since the age of 11. He almost dropped out of school last year. Lin Tao is not alone. Information from China Internet Center shows that the number of teenage Internet users in China had been about 170 million by the end of December, 2016. Many of them, like Lin Tao,spend too much time playing computer games online.To deal with this problem, the Chinese government worked out a draft regulation in January this year. According to the regulation, players need to use their own ID cards to play online games. Game companies will control teenagers’ online game time. They w ill not be able to play online games between 12: 00 at night and 8: 00 in the morning. If they are still playing during that time,the game companies will lock them out.Many people think that the regulation can surely better protect Chinese young game players online, while others doubt whether it can successfully stop them from playing games too much. “More and more people come to know that playing online games too much not only brings teenagers health and study problems, but also makesthem depressed and lonely,” Tong Xiaojun,a director from a university, told CCTV. “We need support from the whole society to solve the problems.”1. Which of the following is TRUE about Lin Tao?A. He had a fight with his father.B. He dropped out of school.C. He often arrives late for school.D. He started playing games at 142. Under the regulation, players need to __________if they want to play online games.A. talk with their parentsB. pay for themC. call the game companies.D. use their own ID cards3. According to the regulation, teenagers will not be able to play online games at __________.A. 8:00pmB.11:00pmC. 6:00amD. 9:00am4. We can learn from the passage that __________.A. not many young people have the same problem as Lin Tao in ChinaB. it is impossib le to control teenagers’ online game timeC. the game companies will offer teenager prizes if they play wellD. everyone should play a part in controlling teenager’ online game time第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)下面文章中有五处(第1-5题)需要添加小标题请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F中选出符合各段意思的小标题。

As a boy,John Gurdon was told he was hopeful.B. John Gurdon ranked first at his high school in biology.C. It's impossible for the doctors to repair a patient's heart after a heart attack.D. In spite of his teacher's criticism,John Gurdon kept working hard.19.What's the main idea of the passage?______A. Ninety percent of the time things don't work.B. Luck prefers the prepared mind.C. Life is full of surprises.D. How to know cells actually.BThere used to be many beautiful flowers in our garden.Among them was a beautiful blue flower.My husband once told me that it only bloomed (开花)in spring and the sun in summer was too hot for it.When summer came,he would move it out of the garden and put it inside our house.Once,my husband was away for some time on business,so I had to take care of the flowers.Before leaving,he told me to pay special attention to the blue flower.I planned to look after it as my husband had ever done,but I was too busy to remember it.One weekend when I wanted to move the blue flower into the house,I found that it had already died.I was very sad and regretted not taking good care of it earlier.A week ago,my husband's elder sister,Linda,died of serious stomach cancer.Linda was much older than my husband.Maybe because of the age distance,we were not very close.After she died,we were very sad and regretted not visiting her often.Linda's death reminds me of the blue flower.We should have done something better,but we haven't tried our best.I believe that God has given us enough time to plant some wonderful things that will bloom inside us,but we have missed it.20.Which of the following is the right description of the blue flower?______①It only bloomed in spring.②It didn't look beautiful.③The hot sun in summer was bad for it.④It had to be kept indoors in summer.A. ①③④B. ②③④C. ①②④D. ①②③④21.When might the writer's husband be away on business?______A. In spring.B. In summer.C. In autumn.D. In winter.22.Why didn't the writer take good care of the blue flower?______A. Because she didn't like the flower.B. Because she was too busy to remember the flower.C. Because her husband didn't ask her to do that.D. Because she didn't know how to take care of the flower.23.The writer wants to tell us ______ .A. She shouldn't forget our flowersB. Stomach cancer is a terrible illnessC. We should learn to love what we have nowD. It's not easy to take care of flowers.CMost people hope to have a memory which helps them succeed in study,work and life.Can memory be improved?Luckily,hundreds of studies in the past 50years have already given us a definite answer.A healthy lifestyle keeps our brain young and memory sharp.First of all,it is necessary to have a healthy diet.Eating more food rich inB vitamins and vitamin E,such as vegetables and lean meat,helps you have a better memory.Doing exercise can keep your brain alive,too.Proper exercise provides much oxygen for the brain.Running,riding a bike,swimming and even walking two or three times a week are helpful.Moreover,getting enough sleep is important.Only when your brain gets a good rest,can it work well.The healthier your lifestyle is,the better your memory will become.But do not expect a sudden change-it takes a long time to make a difference.Memory stills help you remember things better.The following three are the most widely used.Chunking is a way of remembering a piece of information by cutting it into small ones.For example,to memorize a ten-digit telephone number 2127983630,you candivide the digits into three groups:first 212,then 798,and lastly 3630.This method isfar more effective than remembering a string of 10digits.Organization means organizing information into groups of the same kind.For example,trees,grass and flowers are plants;tigers,pandas,horses and cows are animals.Imagery is remembering newly learnt information by using your imagination and connecting it with something that you are familiar with.However,memory skills will hardly work if you don't understand the information.What's more,only a regular review can make the memory last long.That is why students are always advised to go over what they have learnt and then use it as regularly as possible.Human brains are like muscles that needs nutrients and exercise to become stronger.If you make a few lifestyle changes and try some memory skills,you can certainly improve your memory.24.How many ways of keeping a healthy lifestyle are mentioned in the passage?______A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.25.Which of the following examples is the use of the skill"organization"?______A. Remembering the word"sad"by putting it into the group of"feeling".B. Remembering the meaning of the word"red"by connecting it with"fire".C. Remembering a long and difficult passage by understanding its meaning.D. Remembering the number 0708591by dividing it into 070and 8591.26.According to the passage,why should we review what we've learnt?______A. To use it better every day.B. To understand it in a better way.C. To improve memory stills.D. To remember it for a longer time.27.The passage is written to tell us ______ .A. not everyone has a good memoryB. memory skills are not difficult to learnC. memory can be improved in some waysD. it is important to have a healthy lifestyle.DMy summer hols wr CWOT.B4,we usd 2go 2NY 2C my bro,his GF & thr 3:@kids FTF.ILNY,it's gr8.Can you understand this sentence?If you can't,don't feel too bad.Neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework.This is Netspeak:the language of computerized communication found on Internet or mobile phones.To newcomers,it may look like a completely foreign language.So,what is the‘translation'of the sentence above?It means:My summer holidays were a complete waste of time.Before,we used to go to New York to see my brother,his girlfriend,and their three screaming kidsface to face.I love New York,it's great.Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming the English language.Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students'writing.They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).Everyone should just relax,say linguists(语言学家).They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing.David Crystal,from the University of Wales,argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again.Geoffrey Nunberg,from Stanford University,agrees."People get better at writing by writing,"he says,"Kids who are now doing text messaging,e-mail,and instant messages will write at least as well as,and possibly better than,their parents." Linguist James Milroy says,for centuries,it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language.And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today's teenagers become tomorrow's parents,they too will think this way.Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become"corrupted";they simply change to meet the new needs.However,Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English.Cynthia McVey says,"I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it's important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun,but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future."Perhaps we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway.Erin,age 12,says,"I wouldn't use text language in my homework.Texting is just for fun"28.What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?______A. To give an example of a foreign language.B. To show an example of creative methods.C. To express worries about using Netspeak.D. To lead in the topic of Netspeak.29.Which of the following is true according to the passage?______A. Cynthia McVey points out teenagers can deal with Netspeak properly.B. Geoffrey Nunberg believes Netspeakers can write Standard English.C. David Crystal thinks Netspeak helps develop the habit of writing.D. James Milroy says that language is changing and improving.30.The expression"bet your bottom dollar"in Paragraph 5means ______ .A. be fairly sureB. be greatly surprisedC. think it a pityD. find it interesting.三、阅读填空(本大题共1小题,共10.0分)31.Several months after I was badly hurt in a car accident,my father sent me to a blindschool.That morning was the new beginning.I went to this school and I heard

The program will see over 5,000 British students towards fluency (流利) in Mandarin Chinese by 2020.The program is led by local schools and supported by University College London. So far, 14 schools have taken part in the program. Hundreds of secondary school students in England have taken lessons in Mandarin Chinese. Over the next three years, they will spend eight hours studying Mandarin Chinese every week.Nick Gibb is an officer of the British government. He said a high level of fluency in Mandarin Chinese would become more and more important. “Language skills are important for jobs and life. Mandarin Chinese is spoken by the largest number of people in the world. It is also one of the languages that matters the most to our country’s future. If the United Kingdom wants to remain competitive in the world, we do need far more of our young people leaving school with a good command of Mandarin Chinese,” Gibb added. “We hope that our young people could be given the chance to study the language. We want them to be fluent in both spoken and written Mandarin. The Mandarin Excellence Program will help us do this. It will not only open the students’ eyes, but also give them a great advantage when they enter the world of work.”British kids, in fact, are not alone. In America, about 200,000 students are studying Mandarin Chinese. It is believed that 800,000 more will join them over the next couple of years.1.

Mandarin Chinese will soon be the most widely-used language instead of EnglishCAfter a year of fights between American citizens and police officer, police in Alaska (阿拉斯加) are trying something different: Making 2017 a “Year of Kindness” The police in Juneau, Alaska started Acts of Kindness to encourage citizens to do at least one act of kindness every day. The idea for the activity came from the policewoman Kris Se ll. “I had this idea in August last year that we needed to do something, and if people have these attacks at their hate, we can reduce their hate. And how we can reduce their hate is with kindness,” Sell said.The Juneau police are doing several different things to support Acts of Kindness. For example, officers are giving away“kindness surge” calendar two months before. Juneau citizens sign ed up for weekly activities on the planner last month.Acts of Kindness has received a lot of support. “The towns were very excited about it. I’m not sure why the effort is welcome by so many people, but I think it has to do with a situation that people do n’t like seeing around them, and they want to do something to change their environ ment,”Sell told the reporters.Sell thought police officers should take the lead on Acts of Kindness. She hopes the activity will spread across the country so that other communities become nicer places to live.A. officerB. attacksC. citizensD. clothes2.

The passage is most probably from ____.A. an action filmB. a news report C a detective story D a science magazineDAs graduation day approached, excitement increased. Being out of high school meant I was finally coming of age. Soon I would be on my own, making my own decisions, doing what I wanted without someone looking over my shoulder and it meant going to school with boys- a welcome change coming from an all-girl high school.There was never any question in my mind that I would go to a college away from home. My mother’s idea, on the other hand, was just the opposite. Trying her best not to force her preferences on me, she would unnoticeably ask whether I had considered particular schools---all of which happened to be located in or near my hometown of Chicago. Once it was set up that, as long as it was financially (经济上) affordab le, I would be going away anyway, my family’s attitude changed.Their concern shifted from whether I was going away to how far. The schools I was considering on the East Coast suddenly looked much more attractive than those in California.But which college would attend was just one of what seemed like a never-ending list of unknowns: What would college be like? Would I be unbearably lonely not knowing anyone else who was going to the same school? Would the other students like me? Would I make fiends easily? Would I miss my family so much that I wouldn’t be able to stand it? And what about the work---would I be able to keep up? Being an A student in high school didn’t seem to make sure I would be able to survive college. What if the college I choose turned out to be a terrible mistake? Would I be able to transfer (转学) to another school?Then fear set in My feelings took a 180-degree turn. I really didn’t want to leave high school at all, and it was questionable whether I wanted to grow up after all. It had been nice being respected as a senior by the underclass studentsAlthough I expected for months, nothing could have prepared me for the influence of the actual day. As the familiar music of “Pomp and Circumstance” echoed in the background, I looked around at the other students in white caps and gowns as we proudly filed into the hall. Tear welled up uncontrollably in my eyes, and I was filled with a rush of sadness. As if in a daze I rose from my seat when I heard my name called and slowly crossed the stage to receive my diploma (毕业证书). As I reached out my hand, I knew that I was reaching not just for a piece of paper but for a brand-new life. Exciting as the hope of a new life seemed, it wasn’t easy saying good-bye to the old one-the familiar faces, the familiar routine. I would even miss that chemistry class I wasn’t particularly fond of and the long distance each day between home and school that I hated. Good or bad, it was what I knew.That September, I was lucky to attend a wonderful university in Providence, Rhode Island. I needn’t have worried about liking it. My years there turned out to be some of the best years of my life. And as for friends, some of the friendships I formed there I still treasure today. Years later, financial difficulties forced my high school to close its doors for good. Although going back is impossible, it’s comforting to know I can revisit my special memories any time1. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the author’s feeling excited about graduation?A. Making her own decision.B. Doing whatever she wants.C. Having schoolmates with both sexes.D. Becoming an adult by law.2. The author’s mother ____.A. didn’t care about w hich college her daughter went to.B. tries her best to tell the author which college is her favorite.C. preferred the colleges on the East Coast than those in California.D. willingly allowed the author to make her own choice.3. Why did the author worry about her school work in college?A. Good performance in high school doesn’t necessarily mean success in college.B. Feeling lonely in an entirely new school may have a negative influence.C. Unbearable homesickness may stop the author from focusing on study.D. Peer pressure in a good university makes it hard to keep up.4. What does “being on the bottom rung of the ladder” mean?A. Being a freshman.B. Being an unpopular student.C. Being a loser.D. Being childish person.5. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A. The author was eager to say goodbye to the old school day.B. The author found she was so attached to her old school on the graduation day.C. The author missed her chemistry lessons because they are her favorite.D. The author felt comforted because she can revisit her old school.任务型阅读补全短文,根据短文内容,从短文后的A-F选项中,选出5个适当的选项补全短文,Have you ever tried to hide your emotions from someone during a conversation? 1. ____Scientists from the Ohio State University have found that people are able to tell other people’s emotions according to changes in the color of their faces.Scientists studied pictures of people’s facial expressions. 2. ____ For example, happiness makes our faces red around the cheeks and a lit blue around the chin.

How American people show their concern for the tragedy.BHave you ever counted the number of digits(数字)in your mobile phone number?Your number has 11 digits. You may sometimes find it hard to remember your mobile phone number. That's because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world. Why is that?These 11 digits can be divided into three parts, each of which has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service provider you are using. For example, 135 is for the China Mobile Communication Corporation(公司)and 188 is for China Unicom. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you which area the number is registered(注册) . And the lastfour digits are random(随机的).The main reason for using 11 digits is that we have the largest population in the world. We once had 10 numbers. But as our population grew, there were not enough numbers for us to use. So we began to use digits starting from the year of 1999.Eleven digits can be used to make tens of billions of mobile phone numbers, according to the Xinhua News Agency. That's enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China.Plus, mobile phone numbers can be recycled. Usually, the service provider will reuse a cancelled(注销的)number after three to six months. If you call a number that you haven't got in touch with for a long time, you may find that its owner has changed.Besides China, Britain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with 10 digits. Canada's mobile phone numbers are perhaps the world's shortest:They only use seven digits.20.Which of the following does the passage NOT tell us?______A. The number of the digits in the mobile phone numbers in China and some othercountries.B. The number of the parts that the 11 digits are divided into and their meaning.C. The mobile phone numbers can be reused after they are cancelled for 3 or 6 months.D. No other country can produce as many mobile phone numbers as we do in China.21.Which country now has as many digits in the mobile phone numbers as China once did?______A. Japan.B. Australia.C. Canada.D. Britain.22.In which paragraph(s)can you find the main reason for using 11-digit mobile phonenumbers in China?______A. Both Paragraphs 2 and 3.B. Paragraph 3 only.C. Both Paragraphs 3 and 4.D. Paragraph 4 only.CSusan Cleveland is the young president of a candy company in the city of Chicago. Her father began the company in the 1960s. He died three years ago. Now the company belongs to Susan.Susan, however, didn't have any working experience on jobs before becoming the head of the company, she just finished college.The employees became even more worried during Susan's first months on the job. Mr. Cleveland had been a strong leader. But Susan allowed many employees to make their own decisions for the work.One employee said, "Old Cleveland always told us what to do or how to do it. He kept people on a short leash. But the company did well."A leash is a kind of rope. We use a leash to walk our pet dogs. The leash keeps the dog from running away or getting into trouble.Keeping a person on a short leash means keeping him or her under close control. The person cannot make many decisions for himself or herself.Ms. Cleveland does not keep her workers on a short leash. Instead, she encouraged them to created better ways to do business.For example, her secretary suggested an idea. She said the company should give a prize to the best student in the high school near the factory. The winner could use the prize money to study at a university.Ms. Cleveland agreed with the idea. After the prize was announced, people who lived in the area of the factory began to buy more of the company's candy, local newspapers wrote about the competition. Business improved.Ms. Cleveland made her secretary the company's first director of public relations. The former secretary was very pleased.23.The employees paid more attention during Susan's first months on the job because they___. ______A. respected her very muchB. tried to help her run the company wellyC. wondered whether she was able to run the company wellD. were afraid that they would be out of work24.We can infer from the passage that if an employee gave him a piece of good advice, Mr.Cleveland would ____. ______A. be much pleasedB. accept it at onceC. feel unhappyD. praise the employee25.Ms. Cleveland succeeded in running the company very well because she ____. ______A. pooled the wisdom and efforts of everyoneB. was less clever than Mr. ClevelandC. was cleverer than Mr. ClevelandD. liked to order her employees what to do26.Which of the following statements expresses the main idea of the passage?______A. Two heads are better than one.B. Times produce heroes.C. A man cannot be known by his looks.D. Use the few to fight against the many.D"I don't speak English"-these are the first words I learned when I came to America. Soon I was able to pronounce these four words clearly, and said them whenever an American tried to talk to me. This answer really worked well at ending our conversation and saving me from another uncomfortable situation where I might have to actually try and communicate in a language I was not familiar with.Before coming to the States, I thought I knew English pretty well, But the truth is that the dry grammar and vocabulary-based English that is taught in school overseas(海外的)is not the English people speak in America.But fear not! Once you are in America, you can immediately begin to bridge the gap between the learned English that you already know, and the spoken English that is all around you. To do this, first of all, it is important not to fear when you realize that you may not be as prepared for daily communication as you thought. For me, the minute I stopped worrying about my pronunciation and started speaking, I made rapid progress. Often the people didn't even notice my mistakes because they were so glad to finally be able to communicate with me.Another good idea is to listen carefully and pay attention to the way in which ideas are expressed. For example, if you are working hard and you want to stop working and rest for a little while, you can either say "I would like to stop working and rest for a while" or "I want to take a quick break from work". The first sentence, I quickly learned, sounds dry and too formal for any kind of communication, while the second is an idiom(习语)that is widely used in American English conversations.Finally, use what you already know-the vocabulary, the grammar and the spelling. Try to use these into spoken language for more impressive and better speaking results.27.What's the main idea of this passage?______A. You'd better not say "I don't speak English" in the USA.B. Listening is the best way to improve your spoken English.C. You should speak loudly and clearly in the USA.D. How you can improve your spoken English in the USA.28.The writer preferred to use the sentence "I don't speak English" to ____. ______A. protect himself from being troubledB. tell others that he is a foreignerC. avoid getting upset in communicating with othersD. save much time for himself29.When did the writer make rapid progress in spoken English?______A. Immediately he arrived in the USA.B. The moment he removed the fear of speaking.C. As soon as he paid attention to the way Americans spoke.D. Directly he found what had been learned useless.30.All the following are tips given by the writer EXCEPT ____. ______A. speaking bravelyB. listening carefullyC. asking Americans for helpD. using what you have learned三、任务型阅读-简答(本大题共1小题,共10.0分)31.Friends can think alike"What! You, too?I thought I was the only one."1. ______ If so, you may have ended up becoming friends with this person.It seems that similarity often helps form friendships. The Greek philosopher(哲学家)Aristotle once said:"Some think friendship as a matter of similarity;they say that we love those who are like ourselves."Now, 2. ______ Scientists from University of California said friends have similar brains, Scientific America reported.The scientists invited 42 university students to take part in an experiment. Each student watched the same set of videos, which included a comedy, a debate(讨论,辩论)anda soccer match. Meanwhile 3. ______According to their scans, friends who watched the same video clips reacted in similar ways.Similar parts of their brains lit up while watching the videos, especially parts that areconnected with motivation(动力),learning and memory.However, 4. ______Having close friends whose brains react like ours "may be rewarding(收益)because it improves one's own values, opinions, and interests," lead scientist Carolyn Parkinson told Business Inside.5 ______ Scientists from the University of Leipzig, Germany, found that friendship is alsobased on how physically close you are to someone. They did an experiment with first-year college students who met in class for the first time. In this experiment, students who sat in neighboring seats were more likely to become friends.四、单词拼写/单词释义(本大题共1小题,共10.0分)32.Are you still doing the V for victory sign?If so, it's out.
