21．（6分）There are only a few truly pleasant smells to wake up to in the morning. For me, it's the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Just a sniff of it makes me jump out of bed and rush to the kitchen for a gulp of the hot black liquid.
If you're a big fan of coffee, you'll understand that opening a new packet of coffee releases an amazing smell-fresh,
roasted coffee beans. And you'll be able to identify the beans' origin—Colombia, Vietnam or Brazil. Tim Hayward is a food writer and coffee shop owner; he believes the smell "is absolutely vital. When you walk into the coffee shop in the morning and that smell hits you, you're getting physiological(生理上的) responses."
I know from experience when I walk into a cafe, my mouth begins to water and it's the smell that makes me feel good. However, this feeling sometimes turns to disappointment. This is particularly the case when I order a coffee to go in a tall paper cup and sip the liquid through a hole in the lid. Yes, it's convenient, but is it really the right way to appreciate it?
You walk into the coffee shop, you get the smell, but when you actually take the drink out, you are drinking it from something that is designed to deliver the hot liquid directly past your tongue, but prevent any smell coming up to your nose. As well as eliminating the smell, takeaway coffee cups create a lot of waste and a vast majority of them still don't get recycled. So maybe now is the time to really wake up and smell the coffee by drinking from a cup in a cafe, chatting with friends and saving the planet!
1、In which aspect does the author agree with Tim Hayward?
A．People drink coffee first thing in the morning.
B．Coffee beans' origin makes all the differences.
C．Some people are addicted to drinking coffee
D．It's the smell of coffee that really matters.
2、What does the author complain about?
A．The process of making coffee.
B．The high temperature of coffee
C．The design of the paper coffee cup.
D．The inconvenience of buying coffee.
3、What can replace the word "eliminating" underlined in Paragraph 4?
A．Creating. B．Removing. C．Increasing. D．Changing.
4、What can be the best title of the text?
A．Wake up and smell the coffee
B．Try to be a real lover of coffee
C．Drink coffee to save the planet
D．Choose takeaway coffee for convenience
22．（8分）“Does my smile look big in this?” Future fitting-room mirrors in clothing stores could subtly adjust your reflection to make you look--and hence feel--happier encouraging you to like what you see.
That’s the idea behind the Emotion Evokin g System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other words, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.
The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones that laughter comes before happiness, rather than the other way around- is a well-established idea.
The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a computer system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with-software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown.
Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited(招募)21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was completed, the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.
Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely.
“The system could be used to manipulate consumers’ impressions of products,” say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.
“It’s certainly an interesting area,” says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. “Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be mu ch more challenging,” he says.
Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. “Y ou could argue that if it makes people happy, what harm is it doing?” says Creed. “But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated uncomfortable and cheated if they found out.”
1、What’s the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?
A．To see whether one’ s facial expressions can be altered.
B．To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.
C．To see whether laughter comes before happiness.
D．To see whether one’s feeling can be unconsciously affected.
2、What can we learn about the web-camera image in the study?
A．It recorded the volunteers’ performance in the task.
B．It attempted to make the volunteers feel happier.
C．It gave the volunteers a false image.
D．It beautified the volunteers appearance in the mirror.
3、What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technology
A．It only deals with a limited number of facial expressions.
B．It only works in clothing stores.
C．It only makes subtle changes to people’s expressions.
D．It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.
4、What does Creeds comment on the moral issues with this technology imply?
A．People should make their decisions independently.
B．Technology is unable to manipulate people.
C．Nothing is more important than happiness.
D．People should neglect the harm of the technology.
23．（8分） A few years ago，my younger sister and I were the first to board our flight for Norfolk，Virginia. Just as we were about to board the plane，a mechanic came out of the aircraft and blocked the door with his arms. He turned to the flight attendant and hurriedly stated，“We got problems！”
I thought to myself，“Why did I have to be the one to hear that？Why couldn't I have been at the back of the line？
I didn't need to know that！”Very soon we were back in the terminal，waiting，and then finally back on the plane. I waited for the pilot to give an explanation. Pilots take courses to ease passengers' mind，right？They know what to say to calm nerves.
Unfortunately，I didn't think this pilot took that course. Soon his voice thundered throughout the plane，"Sorry for the delay，ladies and gentlemen. We had no power on the plane. We have a generator on the ground right now，and we're going to jump---start the engines. Once we get them going，we'll get up in the air and head to Norfolk，and see what happens. ”
See what happens？We were going to get up in the air，and see what happens？Couldn't we have another plan，one that's been worked out just a little better？
At this point，all I could do was to laugh nervously. One woman started yelling，“Oh no！We're going to crash！”There were sighs of desperation and anxiety spreading throughout the cabin. Finally，we got up in the air thirty
minutes later，and what happened？
Nothing--other than thrust（推力）and lift. We arrived in Norfolk，and no sooner had the wheels touched the ground than a round of applause burst out，as everyone throughout the airplane breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Although，I d id sincerely like to have a plan better than “see what happens" worked out when flying--it really isn't such a bad life strategy. Success will never be guaranteed. The best thing you can do is just get up in the air，and see what happens. Sometimes adjustments would be made in the air，or shall we say，in the middle of the process.
1、The purpose of the text is to_____________.
A．introduce a frightening flight experience
B．prove that taking a plane is dangerous
C．show a way of making plans
D．tell readers a life strategy
2、What event was beyond the author's expectation?
A．The mechanic explained the problems to the passengers.
B．The pilot said nothing to calm the passengers.
C．The passengers arrived in Norfolk safely.
D．The flight was delayed for half an hour.
3、Having known the problems, many passengers _____________.
A．felt desperate and anxious
B．stood up and started yelling
C．waited calmly for the problems to be solved
D．complained about the mechanic's carelessness
4、From the text we can learn that_____________.
A．some passenger were sleeping all the way on the plane
B．the passengers arrived in their destination safely as planned
C．the author and his younger sister were the last to board the plane
D．the passengers clapped their hands once the plane landed safely
5、Which opinion would the author most probably hold?
A．To ensure success, don't get started before you've got everything ready.
B．To avoid repeating failure, give yourself all the reasons why you can't.
C．To set up a business, don't wait until you have everything you need.
D．To achieve success, try to prepare for the worst.
24．（8分） A British friend told me he couldn’t understand why Chinese people love eating sunflower seeds (葵花子) as a snack so much. “I’ve met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in their front teeth; I believe that’s from cracking the seeds,” he said.
I had never noticed the habit, but once he mentioned it, I suddenly became more aware. I realized that whenever I’m watching TV or typing a report, I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds. My friend doesn’t like sunflower seeds, and, to him, it seems unnecessary to work so hard just to get one small seed.
When we were young, the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year. Then, we all lived close to one another, usually in a small city, and sometimes even neighbors would go door-to-door on Chinese New Year’s Eve to check out what every household was making.
I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking. In the living room, a large table would already be laid out, complete with a fancy tablecloth, ready-made dumpling fillings, and dishes full of candy, fruits and sunflower seeds.
Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later, while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast. I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then.
I don’t think it’s right to criticize one’s choice in food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem. It’s not only in China. When I went abroad, I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food. In Denmark, they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner, no matter how much it ruins their breath. They think it’s a delicacy, and it’s connected with their culture. I think it’s a wonderful tra dition.
1、What did the write become aware of?
A．She had ever typed a report about seeds.
B．She ate various snacks while watching TV.
C．She has a habit of cracking sunflower seeds.
D．She damaged her teeth by eating sunflower seeds.
2、What does the write prove by mentioning Chinese New Year?
A．The traditions of celebrating it disappear.
B．Children can eat delicious food on that day.
C．The families would get together for it.
D．Eating sunflower seeds is related to it.
3、The writer’s attitude to Denmark’s way of eating bread is ______.
A．acceptable B．critical
C．neutral D．doubtful
4、What lesson can we learn from the passage?
A．One kind of food doesn’t necessarily suit everyone.
B．Eating habits come from a certain culture.
C．It is good to form healthy eating habits.
D．Changing your eating habits will change your life.
25．（10分）NEW HA VEN, Connecticut —— A surprise awaited students in Yale who showed up for Professor Laurie Santos’s class. They got slips of paper that said, “No class today.” There was only one rule for the students
‘ unexpected free time——They were not allowed to study, but to relax. Since exams and papers were coming up, everyone was tired and stressed. At this moment they were touched. With around applause, nine students hugged Santos, and two burst into tears.
Yet, cancelling class was not just a break. It was also a challenge, as she was asking them to stop worrying about their grades, even if it was just an hour. One student went to the Yale University Art Gallery for the first time in her four years at Yale. A group of students went to a recording studio and played a new song. More people were outside, and more were smiling. That’s why about 1,200 students were taking Santos’s class, called “Psychology and the Good Life,” the largest class in Ya le’s 317-year history. Even non-Yale students had the chance to take Santos’s class. It was offered as an online course and she immediately became an Internet hit.
Skyler Robinson, one of her students, was at a loss for a while about what to do during his break, and then decided to take a nap. “It was a great nap,” he commented. Santos designed the class after she realized that her students kept busy through long days that seemed far more depressing and joyless than her own college years. “They feel they’re in this crazy rat race. They’re working so hard that they can’t take a single hour off. That’s awful.”
The ideas behind the class are simple. Santos said, “It is the hope that science can help students find peace among all the stresses and difficulties th ey face at college.” The lessons include showing more gratitude, performing acts of kindness and increasing social connections. The students really wanted to learn to lead a happy life in a science -driven way. Santos also noted the psychological happening of “mis-wanting”, which led people to work towards the wrong goals in life.
One week, Santo asked students to exercise. Another week, she wanted them to get more sleep. They worked hard
to keep some new habits. Social science research led to many new understandings of how people find happiness. She thinks her class can change Yale, or rather, not just Yale.
1、How did students respond to the cancelling class?
A．They expressed their concern.
B．They were at a loss what to do.
C．They showed gratitude to the teacher.
D．They were eager to study individually.
2、How can we know Santo’s class was popular?
A．From the attendence in her class.
B．From the subject she taught.
C．From the long history of Yale.
D．From the release of the online course.
3、What can students le arn from Santos’s class?
A．To develop good study habits.
B．To let exercise become their routine.
C．To better understand how to find happiness.
D．To do something joyful during the stressful time.
4、What can we infer from the text?
A．Santos had a more stressful time in her college.
B．Students would be in rat race after Santos’s class.
C．Santos’s influence can reach a wider range of people.
D．Santos is going to cancel more classes for better effects.
