【考点分析】
考察广告布告类短文阅读。

对于广告类的文章，一定要掌握快速阅读的技巧，找到文章关键词，然后直接阅读题目，再在每个项目中找到细节信息即可，这类题相对容易。

B
Whenever we see a button, we are eager to press it because we know something will happen. This is true in most cases, for example on a doorbell and on the “on/off” button on the TV. But some buttons a re actually fake, like the “close” button on a lift.
Many people are in the habit of pressing the “close” button because they don’t have the patience to wait for the lift doors to shut. But lifts’ “close” buttons are a complete scam (骗局), at least in the US --the doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press.
It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US, making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter. Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys.
But to normal lift riders, the buttons aren’t completely useless. According to psychologists, fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control.
“Perceived (能够感知的) control is very important. It reduces stress and increases well-being,” Ellen J. Langer, a psychology professor, said, “ having a lack of control is associated with depression.”
Experts ha ve revealed that a lot of buttons that don’t do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose. For example, many offices in the US have fake thermostats (温度调节器) because people tend to feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.
But psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little “white lies”, they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close, it is considered to be worth the effort.
“That habit is here to stay,” John Kounios, a psychology professor, said. “Even though I have real doubts about the traffic light buttons, I always press them. After all, I’ve got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not press the button in the hope that this one w ill work?”
【语篇解读】社会生活类阅读。

作者介绍了生活中在很多场合都有许多假按钮。

虽然是假的，但是在许多人看来，尤其是心理专家看来，可以给人们减压，增加愉快感。

25. What was the author’s main purpose in writing the article?
A. To analyze the functions of fake buttons.
B. To describe some different kinds of fake buttons.
C. To explain the advantages and disadvantages of fake buttons.
D. To explore people’s different habits when it comes to pushing buttons.
【答案】A。

【解析】主旨大意题。

本文主要介绍了生活中出现的假按钮，并且分析了他们给人们带来的各个方面的作用。

故选A。

26. In America, the “close” buttons on lifts _______.
A. are fake for the convenience of disabled people
B. work only when people press them hard for a while
C. were specially designed to give people a sense of control
D. cannot speed up the process of closing the door in any case
【答案】A。

【解析】细节理解题。

根据文章第三段It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US, making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter.可知是为残疾人所考虑的，因此答案为A。

27. The underlined part “for this same purpose” in Paragraph 6 refe rs to _______.
A. making people more patient
B. giving people perceived control
C. helping people to build up confidence
D. making people with depression feel better

根据第五段“Perceived (能够感知的) control is very important. It reduces stress and increases well-being,可知能够感知的控制可以带来很多好处，所以很多的设计都是出于这一目的，故答案为B。

28. According to John Kounios, people who press fake buttons ______.
A. should give up this habit
B. probably do so to kill time
C. consider what they do to be meaningless
D. don’t know that w hat they press is fake
【答案】B。

【解析】推理判断题。

根据最后一段Even though I have real doubts about the traffic light buttons, I always
press them. After all, I’ve got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not press the button in the hope that this one will work?”可知，等待时没有事情可做，按假按钮可以消磨时间。

故答案为B。

C
Several times my daughter had telephoned to say, “Mum, you must come and see the daffodils(水仙花)before they are over.”
I wanted to go, but it was a two-hour drive from Lake Arrowhead. "I will go next Tuesday," I promised, a little unwillingly, on her third call.
The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove there. When I finally walked into Carolyn's house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren, I said, "Forget the daffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible (看不见的) in the cloud and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see!"
My daughter smiled calmly and said, "We drive in this weather all the time, Mum. You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience." After about twenty minutes, we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church. On the far side of the church, I saw a hand-lettered sign that read "Daffodil Garden"? We got out of the car and each took a child's hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path. Then, we turned a comer of the path, and I looked up amazed. Before me lay the most beautiful sight. Flows of flowers of different colors seemed poured down the peak and slopes. There were five acres of flowers! A seas of daffodil! It was like a fairyland all beyond description.
"But who has done this?" I asked Carolyn. "It's just one woman," Carolyn answered. That's her home, "Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A-frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory. We walked up to the house. On the patio (露台), we saw a poster." Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking" was the headline.
The first answer was a simple one. "50,000 bulbs (鳞茎)" it read. The second answer was, "One at a time, by one woman." The third answer was, "Began in 1958."
I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than fifty years before, had begun-one bulb at a time -to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top. Just planting one bulb at a time, year after year, had changed the world where she lived and created something of magnificence, beauty, and inspiration.
When we multiply tiny pieces of time with small amounts of daily effort, we too can accomplish great things. Everyone can do something to change the world.

B. Nothing is too difficult if you put your heart into it
C. People can change the world where they live by growing flowers

The Cuban iguana is a species of lizard（蜥蜴）of the iguana family. It is the largest of the West Indian rock iguanas, one of the most endangered groups of lizards. This species with red eyes and a thick tail is one of the largest lizards in the Caribbean.
The Cuban iguana is primarily herbivorous; 95% of its diet consists of the leaves, flowers and fruits from as many as 30 plant species, including the seaside rock bush and various grasses. However, Cuban iguanas occasionally consume animal matter, and individuals have been observed eating the dead flesh of birds, fish and crabs, The researchers wrote that quite a few people on Isla Magueyes could have caused this incident.
The Cuban iguana is distributed throughout the rocky southern coastal areas of mainland Cuba and its surrounding islands with a wild population booming on Isla Magueyes, Puerto Rico. It is also found on the Cayman Islands of Little Cayman and Cayman Brac, where a separate subspecies occurs. Females guard their nest sites and often nest in sites half destroyed by Cuban crocodiles. To avoid the attack from them, the Cuban iguana often makes its home within or near prickly-pear cacti （仙人掌）.
In general the species is in decline, more quickly on the mainland than on the outlying islands. One of the reasons for their decline is habitat destruction caused by t he over consuming of farm animals, housing development, and the building of tourist resorts on the beaches where the animals prefer to build their nests. Although the wild population is in decline, the numbers of iguanas have been sharply increased as a result of captive-breeding（圈养）and other conservation programs.

I 43 ,“Who is throwing garbage?” No answer. Instead, I saw more bits of paper silently floating 44 from upstairs. Looking up, I saw my seven-year-old son, Paul.
“Stop making a mess.” “It’s not a mess. They’re45 .” “Sorry, what did you say?” I hadn’t heard him clearly.
He didn’t answer me. Paul has autism (自闭症) and 46 answers a question, especially when he’s47 attentively on something else. He ran down the stairs. “Where are my other butterflies?” he asked,48 around. Every time Paul 49 five or more words together, my heart says a 50 of thanks. But lately he seems to 51 that the benefits of forming complete sentences when communicating are 52 of the effort.
Butterflies, Of course. I rushed to 53 them from the garbage, 54 them off and handed them to my young artist. “Want to see them55 again?” he asked with a shy smile. “Oh yes! They’re beautiful.” I whispered. He ran back upstairs to float his 56 down again. They really did look like beautiful butterflies.
That day Paul 57 me to look up at 58 instead of down at garbage. How many other masterpieces (杰作) do I miss because I’m too caught up in my59 to take time to appreciate what’s righ t in front of me? Life is not what happens to us. It’s60 we look at it. Now, I look up.

作者的儿子Paul，患有自闭症，通过他儿子用废纸来创作他心中的艺术这件事，使作者明白了要积极的面对生活，享受生活。

41. A. laughed B. sighed C. amazed D. shouted
【答案】B
【解析】考查动词辨析。
