I was just so shocked -- it was like seeing myself,” says Adriana. They were both students at neighbouring universities in Long Island, New York, and they had grown up only 30 kilometres apart. They shared a birthday, they were exactly the same height and both loved hip hop. But the most important thing (22) ______ was shared between them was the same Mexican mother. Both girls grew up knowing that their mother (23)______ (give) them up for adoption when they were born, but they had no idea (24)______ they had a twin sister. Then, Justin Lattore, a friend of Adriana’s, went to Tamara’s twentieth birthday party. When he walked in and saw Tamara, hardly (25)______ he believe his eyes. “I was just shocked -- she looked so much like Adriana,” says Justin. Then it got clear -- they had to be sisters. In fact, Tamara had already noticed that strangers on her university campus often smiled and said hello, clearly (26)________ (mistake) her for someone else.Following the birthday, Justin put the two girls in touch and they arranged the McDonald’s meeting by email. “(27)________ she came towards me, she was walking like me, talking like me,” says Tamara. “We have the same mannerisms, the same interests and got the same grades at school,” adds Adriana.

(29)________ of their adoptive fathers had died a few years before they met.N ow the twins are finishing their studies, and they meet often. “I feel she’s my sister, but our relationship right now is more like friends,” says Tamara.

Each word can onlyImagine working for an employer who, aware that you’re probably not sleeping enough at night, allows you to down tools and nap as part of your regular work ___31___ -- and not just forty winks at your desk, but a restorative snooze in a quiet room. These are some of the measures being used by a growing number of companies in Japan tocounter an epidemic of sleeplessness that costs its economy a(n) ___32___ $ 138 bn a year.Tech startups have been quickest to ___33___the “sleep debt” among irritable and unproductive employees. Last year, Nextbeat, an TT service provider, went as far as setting up two “strategic sleeping rooms” -- one for men, the other for women -- at its headquarters in Tokyo. The aroma-infused rooms ___34___ devices that block out background noise, allowing workers to stretch out on sofas for a(n) ___35___ nap. Mobile phones, tablets and laptops are banned.“Napping can do as much to improve someone’s ___36___as a balanced diet and exercise,” Emiko Sumikawa, a member of the Nextbeat board, told Kyodo news agency.Nextbeat also asks employees to leave work by 9 pm and to avoid doing excessive overtime, which has been ___37___ for a rising rate of death from overwork.Japanese workers have more reason than most to submit to （服从）the ___38___ for a daytime snooze, whether at work or during long commutes.A survey conducted using fitness trackers in 28 countries found that Japanese men and women sleep, on average, just 6hours and 35 minutes a night -- 45 minutes less than the international average -- making them the most sleep-deprived of all. Estonians, Canadians, Belgians, Austrians, as well as the Dutch and French, all get a comparatively decent night’s sleep, according to the survey.The government has also come to appreciate the ___39___ of a well-rested workforce, with the health ministry recommending that all working-age people take a nap of up to 30 minutes in the early afternoon -- advice ___40___ embraced by some of the country’s politicians.Ⅲ. Reading ComprehensionSection A (15’)Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Placebos（安慰剂）Prove PowerfulM any doctors know the story of “Mr. Wright”. In 1957 he was diagnosed with cancer, and given only days to live. He had tumours（肿瘤）the size of oranges. He heard that scientists had discovered a new medication, Krebiozen, that was___41___ against cancer, and he begged the doctor to give it to him. His physician, Dr Phillip West, finally agreed. After Mr. Wright had been given an injection on a Friday afternoon, the ___42___doctor found his patient out of his “death bed”, joking with the nurses the following Monday. “The tumours”, the doctor wrote later, “had ___43___ like snow balls on a hot stove.”Two months later, Wright read medical reports that the medication was fake. His condition immediately got worse again.“Don’t ___44____ what you read in papers,” the doctor told Wright. Then he injected him with what he said was “a new super-refined double strength” version of the drug. ___45___, there was no drug, just a mix of salt and water, but again it worked. Wright was the picture of health for another two months until he read an official report saying that Krebiozen was___46___. He died two days later.This story has been ___47___ by doctors for a long time, dismissed as one of those strange tales that medicine cannot explain. The idea that a pat ient’s ___48____ can make a fatal disease go away has been thought of as too strange. But now scientists are discovering that the placebo effect is more powerful than anyone had ever thought. They are also beginning to discover how such miraculous results are ___49___. Through new techniques of brain imagery, it can be shown that a thought, a belief or a desire can cause chemical processes in the brain which can have powerful effects on the ___50___. Scientists are learning that some body reactions are not caused by information coming into the brain from the outside world, but by what the brain ___51___ to happen next.Placebos are “lies that ___52___,” said Dr Anne Harrington, a historian of science at Harvard University. “The word placebo is Latin for “I shall please” (or I shall make you happy) and it is typically a treatment that a doctor gives to ___53___ patients to please them,” she said. “It looks like medication, but has no healing ingredients whatsoever.” Nowadays, doctors have much more powerful medicines to fight disease. But these treatments have not diminished（减弱）the power of the placebo, quite the ___54___. Maybe when scientists fully understand how placebos work, the powerful healing effects of the human ___55___will be used more systematically!41.A. vague B. unique C. effective D. impossible42.A. astonished B. disappointed C. exhausted D. experienced43.A. expanded B. melted C. accumulated D. moved44.A. take down B. look for C. make out D. care about45.A.

Each passage is following by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.( A )A Lesson Goes ViralAt the end of 2014, Tulsa, Oklahoma, sixth-grade teacher Melissa Bour received a friend request on Facebook from one of her students. She didn’t accept the request, but a quick browse through the girl’s friends list revealed the names of dozens of k ids from her classroom. Many of the students’ Facebook pages were completely public, meaning even strangers could search through the kids’ personal photos and messages.“I saw middle fingers, students dressed inappropriately, and extremely offensive language,” Melissa says. “It was disturbing.”When she brought up her discovery in class, the students thought is was nothing. So she created a post of her own.With a bright green Sharpie, she wrote on a piece of paper in all caps, “Dear Facebook: M y 12-year-old students think it is ‘no big deal’ that they are posting pictures of themselves... Pleasehelp me... [show them] how quickly their images can get around.” She put a picture of the letter on her Facebook page and asked people to share it.In hours, it was shared 108,000 times across dozens of states and four countries. She deleted it after eight hours, but it continued to spread. “I wanted to show them that it’s on the Internet forever,” she says.As she explained the results of he r experiment in class, the students’ “eyes got bigger and bigger,” she says. “It scared a few of them into deleting their pages completely,” she says. Others have removed inappropriate posts and used privacy settings to manage their pages.Her intent ion wasn’t to scare them off social media but to push them to be mindful of what they post. Melissa says, “I tell them, ‘just because everyone else is sharing doesn’t mean you have to.’”56.What did Melissa Bour find about her students’ Fackbook pages?A.They were not accessible to strangers.B.They contained improper messages.C.They appealed a lot to the public.D.They revealed nothing about the students.57.Why did Melissa put a picture of the letter on her Fackbook page?A.To prove the potential threat caused by sharing something online.B.To help students learn how to post something on Facebook.C.To turn to the public for tips on proper use of Fackbook.D.To scare her students off all social media.58.After Melissa told her students about the results of her experiment, they_______.A.ignored her warnings completelyB.began to share something meaningfulC.took no notice of what others postedD.realized the danger of social media59.What is the passage mainly about?A.How a teacher became popular with her unique post.B.How the students kept themselves away from social media.C.How a teacher raised students’ awareness of Internet security.D.How the students fought against their addiction to online games.( B )As much as we may want to protect children from all the terrible, horrible and very bad things in life, too often we don’t get a choice. These four new kids’ books serve as guides for a variety of difficulties and as important reminders that we have a choice in how we react to such trails. These stories introduce young readers to relatable characters who are processing and recovering from hardships and sorrows. Each book, in its own way, offers a guide for young readers who are facing their own struggles. Together, they teach a lesson for us all in resilience （还原能⼒）and hope.A. creative processesB. lovable charactersC. painful remindersD. difficult experiences61.Suppose you have just moved from Asia to America and your kids have trouble getting along with others at school, which of the following books are you going to pick for your children?A.The Secret Horses Of Briar HillB.Goodbye DaysC.Stef Soto, Taco QueenD.Why Can’t Grandma Remember My Name?62.The author writes this passage to ______.A.share some new parental skills with parentsB.teach kids how to write some dramatic storiesC.start a discussion on the topics of the new booksD.introduce some newly published books for kids( C )Living in an urban area with green spaces has a long-lasting positive impact on people’s mental well-being, a study has suggested. UK researchers found moving to a green space had a sustained positive effect, unlike pay rises or promotions, which only provided a short-term boost.Co-author Mathew White, from the University of Exeter, UK, explained that the study showed people living in greener urban areas were displaying fewer signs of depression or anxiety. “There could be a number of reason s,” he said, “for example,people do many things to make themselves happier: they strive of promotion or pay rises, or they get married. But the trouble with those things is that with those things is that within six months to a year, people are back to their original baseline levels of well-being. So, these things are not sustainable; they don’t make ushappy in the long term. We found that for some lottery winners who had won more than ￡500,000 the positive effect wasdefinitely there, but after six months to a year, they were back to the baseline.”Dr. White said his team wanted to see whether living in greener urban areas had a lasting positive effect on people’s sense of well-being or whether the effect also disappeared after a period of time. To do this, the team used data from the British Household Panel Survey compiled by the University of Essex.Explaining what the data revealed, he said: “What you see is that even after three years, mental health is still better, which is unlike many other things that we think wil l make us happy.” He observed that people living in green spaces were less stressed, and less stressed people made more sensible decisions and communicated better.With a growing body of evidence establishing a link between urban green spaces and a positive impact on human well-being, Dr. White said, “There’s growing interest among public policy officials, but the trouble is who funds it. What we really need at a policy level is to decide where the money will come from to help support good quality loc al green spaces.”63.According to one study, what do green spaces do to people?A.Improve their work efficiency.B.Add to their sustained happiness.C.Help them build a positive attitude towards life.D.Lessen their concerns about material well-being.64.What does Dr. White try to find out about living in a greener urban area?A.How it affects different people.B.How strong its positive effect is.C.How long its positive effect lasts.D.How it benefits people physically.65.What did Dr. White’s research reveal about people living in a green environment?A.Their stress was more apparent than real.B.Their decisions required less deliberation.C.Their memories were greatly strengthened.D.Their communication with others improved.66.According to Dr. White, what should the government do to build more green spaces in cities?A.Find financial support.B.Improve urban planning.C.Involve local residents in the effort.D.Raise public awareness of the issue.Section C (8’)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.。

One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.In 1849, after graduation from a medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.46.

Eilzabeth Blackwell spent most of her life in _______.A. England B．Paris C．the United States D．New York CityBWhen I was 17, I read a magazine article about a museum called the McNay, once the home of a watercolorist named Marian McNay. She had requested the community to turn it into a museum upon her death. On a sunny Saturday, Sally and I drove over to the museum. She asked, "Do you have the address? ""No, but I'll recognize it, there was a picture in the magazine.”"Oh, stop. There it is!”The museum was free. We entered, excited. A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us."May I help you?" a man asked. "No, "I said.”We're fine.” Tour guides got on my nerves. What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in? Sally had gone upstairs. The people in the hall seemed very nosy(爱窥探的), keeping their eyes on me with curiosity. What was their problem? I saw some nice sculptures in one room. Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me. "Where do you think you are?” he asked. I turned sharply. "The McNay Art Museum!" He smiled, shaking his head. "Sorry, the McNay is on New Braunfels Street." "What’s this place?” I asked, still confused. "Well, it's our home." My heart jolted(震颤). I raced to the staircase and called out, "Sally! Come down immediately! ""There's some really good stuff(艺术作品）up there.”She stepped down, looking confused. I pushed her toward the front door, waving at the family, saying, "Sorry, please forgive us, you have a really nice place." Outside, when I told Sally what happened, she covered her mouth, laughing. She couldn't believe how long they let us look around without saying anything.The real McNay was splendid, but we felt nervous the whole time we were there. Van Gogh, Picasso. This time, we stayed together, in case anything else unusual happened.Thirty years later, a woman approached me in a public place. "Excuse me, did you ever enter a residence, long ago, thinking it was the McNay Museum?”"Yes. But how do you know? We never told anyone. ""That was my home. I was a teenager sitting in the hall. Before you came over, I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in. I never felt lucky before. You thought it was a museum. My feelings about my home changed after that. I've always wanted to thank you."51. What do we know about Marian McNay?A. She was a painter.B. She was a community leader.C. She was a museum director.D. She was a journalist.52. Why did the author refuse the help from the man in the house?A. She disliked people who were nosy.B. She felt nervous when talking to strangers.C. She knew more about art than the man.D. She mistook him for a tour guide.53. How did the author feel about being stared at by the people in the hall?A. Puzzled.B. Concerned.C. Frightened.D. Delighted.54. Why did the author describe the real McNay museum in just a few words?A. The real museum lacked enough artwork to interest her.B. She was too upset to spend much time at the real museum.C. The McNay was disappointing compared with the house.D. The event happening in the house was more significant.55. What could we learn from the last paragraph?A. People should have good taste to enjoy life.B. People should spend more time with their family.C. People tend to be blind to the beauty around them.D. People tend to educate teenagers at a museum.CStatuses are marvelous human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we "fit" in society. As we go about our everyday lives, we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses. For example, we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman, whether the unfamiliar person on our property is a thief or a meter reader, and so on.The statuses we assume often vary with the people we encounter，and change throughout life. Most of us can, at very high speed，assume the statuses that various situations require. Much of social interaction consists of identifying and selecting among appropriate statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us. This means that we fit our actions to those of other people based on a constant mental process of appraisal and interpretation. Although some of us find the task more difficult than others, most of us perform it rather effortlessly. A status has been compared to ready-made clothes. Within certain limits，the buyer can choose style and fabric. We must choose from among the clothing presented by our society. Furthermore, our choice is limited to a size that will fit，as well as by our pocketbook . Having made a choice within these limits we can have certain alterations made，but apart from minor adjustments，we tend to be limited to what the stores have on their racks. Statues too come ready made，and the range of choice among them is limited.56. In the first paragraph，the writer tells us that statuses can help us ______.A. determine whether a person is fit for a certain jobB. behave appropriately in relation to other peopleC. protect ourselves in unfamiliar situationsD. make friends with other people57. According to the writer, people often assume different statuses ______.A. in order to identify themselvesB. in order to better identify othersC. as their mental processes changeD. as the situation changes58. By saying that “We must choose from among the cl othing presented by our society"，the writer means_______.A. different people have different styles of clothesB. ready-made clothes may need alterationsC. statuses come ready made just like clothesD. our choice of statuses is limitedV: 阅读表达10%阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

”resist“抵抗”;obtain“获得”;convey“表达”;undertake“进行”。
2. When we got to the railway station，the express hadn't started yet，so we _______．A．needn't hurry B．didn't need hurryC．needn't to hurry D．needn't have hurried参考答案：D考查情态动词+have done结构。
句意：当我们到达火车站时，列车还没有启动，所以我们本不必匆忙。
固定结构：needn't have done表示“本不必做而做了”。
结合句意可住答案为D。
【点睛】情态动词+ have done结构：1.“must + have + 过去分词”表示对过去发生的事情或状态进行推测,语气比较坚定,通常只用于肯定句.如：It must have rained last night,for the ground is wet.2.“can / could + have + 过去分词”表示对过去某种情况的怀疑或不确定.can和could一般用于否定句和疑问句,could的语气较can弱.如：He can't have finished the work so soon.3.“may / might + have + 过去分词”表示对已发生的动作或存在的状态进行不肯定的推测,might的语气比may弱一点.这种结构主要用于肯定句和否定句,疑问句改用can或could.如：They may not have known it beforehand.4.“need + have + 过去分词”表示过去做了不必做或不需要做的事情,或过去做某事纯属多余.如：I needn't have bought so much wine—only five people came.5.“should / ought to + have + 过去分词”表示过去本该做某事但没做,其否定式表示过去不该做某事但做了,这种句式含有不满或责备之意,ought to的语气比should强一些.如：You ought to / should have studied harder.你本应该更努力学习的.（但没有）He oughtn't to / shouldn't have done that.他本来就不该做那件事.（可是做了）6.“would ＋have ＋过去分词”表示对过去的某种情况进行猜测,或本来要做某事却因某种原因未做成,通常用来说明某一情况,但不像用should或ought to那样含有责备之意.如：I guess the poet would have been about twenty when she wrote her first poem.Another worker wouldn't have acted like that.27.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.According to German novelist Heinrich Mann (1871-1950), a house without books is like a room without windows. Mann ___41___ pointed out the value of books, but some researchers have found evidence that people with books in their homes really do gain a window on the world.A new study in the journal Social Science Research, publishing in October, suggests that people who grow up with more books are more likely to have educational ___42___, and to achieve more in life, than people who grow up without them. In the study, over 160,000 adultsfrom 31 countries and regions were asked about the number of books there were in their homes when高三英语第6页共19页they were 16 years old. Then they were_ 43_ in literacy, numeracy (计算能力) and information communication technology.The research shows that the number of books for each household 44_ greatlyfrom country to country.45 _, the number of books is27 in Turkey, 143 in the UK and 218 in Estonia.

A. therefore B. however C otherwise D. likewise55. A. enjoy B. obtain C. maintain D. reduceSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by severalquestions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in thepassage you have just read.(A)"Don't tell anyone". We hear these words when someone tells a secret to us. But it can be hard to keep a secret. We're often tempted to “spill the beans”, even if weregret it later According to Asim Shah, professor in the Menninger Department of Psychiatryand Behavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may well “become a burden". This is because people often have an "obsessive (无法摆脱的)and anxious urge to share it with someone".An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of NotreDame, US, suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted with secrets can suffer from depression, anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail.高三英语第8页共19页But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? Shahexplained that people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend.Another reason people share secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close tothem. A sense of distrust can develop when people who are close do not share it with each other. "Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of eithergaining or losing the trust of someone." according to Shah.He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out. But this doesn't meanthat it is a good idea only to share secrets with quiet people. A quiet person may besomeone who keeps everything inside. To tell such a person a secret may cause themstress, and make them talk about the secret.Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret, you'd better put yourselfin their position. Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustn't give the information away. Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someone'ssecret you should come clean about it. Let the person know that their secret isn't so secret anymore.56. The underlined phrase "spill the bean" is closest in meaning to________.A. let out a secretB. tell the truthC. eat our wordsD. take gossip57. A person who is entrusted with a secret ________.A. is oft often obsessed with a certain threatB. often would rather not have been told about itC. usually has a strong desire to keep it until deathD. may suffer from physical or psychological problems58. What can we learn from the passage?A. Quiet people are more likely to keep the secrets to themselves.B. Sharing secrets helps establish friendship or get over the sense of guilt.C. It's better to inform others of the chances of your leaking secrets beforehand.D. Putting yourself in others' shoes helps realize the difficulty of keeping secrets.高三英语第9页共19页59. What‟s the best title for the passage?A. Walls have ears.B. Still tongues make wise heads.C. A word spoken is past recalling.D.

Y ou can buy all your ingredients online through Whisky by one click.（C）Y ou‟re walking down a quiet street and suddenly you hear some footsteps .Undoubtedly ,it means that there‟s someone around. But have you ever wonder why it occurs to us that it‟s someone else‟s footsteps , not ours?According to a new study published in the journal Nature in September, this phenomenon arises from a function in our brain to ignore the noise we make ourselves.In order to explore how our brain does this, a group of scientists carried out an experiment with mice at Duke University. The research entered on an intuition(直觉)---that we are usually unaware of the sound of our own footsteps ---as a vehicle for understanding larger neural(神经系统的) phenomena; how this behavior reveals the ability to monitor, recognize, and remember the sound of one‟s own movements in r elation to those of their larger environments.In the experiment, research controlled the sounds of a group of mice could hear, reported Science Daily. During the first several days, the mice would hear the same sound each time they took a step. This was just like “running on a tiny piano with each key playing exactly the same note”, sen ior study author Richard Mooney, a professor of neurobiology at Duke University, told Live Science.Scientists found that their auditory cortex (听觉皮层) – the area of the brain that processes sound – became active at first but decreased its response to the sound after two or three minutes高三英语第12页共19页when the mice became familiar with it.“ It‟s almost like they were wearing special headphones that could filter(过滤)out the sound of their own movements.” David Schneider, an assistant professor at the Center for Neutral Sci ence at New Y ork University, told HuffPost.But once the sound changed, their auditory cortex became active again. This suggests that the “sensory filter” in a mouse‟s brain could help it detect new sounds or abnormal noise in the environment easily after tuning out familiar sounds.“For mice, this is really important,” said Schneider. “They are prey animals, so they really need to be able to listen for a cat creeping up on them, even when they‟re walking and making noise.Being able to ignore the sounds of one's own movements is likely important for humans as well. But the ability to predict the sounds of our own actions is also important for more complex human behaviors such as speaking or playing an instrument."When we learn to speak or to play music, we predict what sounds we are going to hear – such as when we prepare to strike keys on a piano–and we compare this to what we actually hear, "explains Schneider. “We use mismatches between expectation and experience to change how we play – and we get bett er over time because our brain is trying to minimize these errors.”63. What can be discovered about mice in the experiment?A. Their brain responds inactively to the familiar soundsB. They are able to detect sounds other animals don‟t notice.C. They cannot identify different sounds except their own footsteps.D. Different areas of their brain are responsible for different sounds.64. What‟s the function of the sensory filter?A. Getting used to abnormal or unfamiliar sounds.B. Ignoring the sounds made by our companions.C. Identifying the sounds from a larger environment高三英语第13页共19页D. Being sensitive to the sounds of our own movement.65. Why can a good symphony conductor immediately recognize it when a wrong note is played?A. He has the ability to match the wrong note with the instrument player.B. He has an intuition that he should ignore the sound of his own movement.C. He has a low expectation and knows where players are likely to make errors.D. He has a good prediction of how each note should be played in the orchestra.66. What can be inferred from thepassage?A. Noise-filtering ability ensures us a quiet and undisturbed environment.B. The ability to ignore familiar noises helps to detect potential dangers.C. The activeness of auditory cortex determines our activity performance.D. Sound-predicting ability seems not so important for humans as for animals.Section CDirections:Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.高三英语第14页共19页Building a lasting social relationshipWe all know that friends are special people who we share our lives with, and who share their lives with us in return. But seeking friends and keeping the friendship going are never easy.According to research recently published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, the key is to use "we-talk".Led by University of California psychologist Megan Robins and her colleagues, the researchers reviewed and analyzed 30 different studies involving over 5, 000participants.________67________.The word "we" moves people from an individual position into a partnership, which makes us more interdependent."__________68____________.Word use is a window into what people are thinking and feeling without asking them." Robbins told Science Daily.___________69___________. The primary point is that interdependence may bring about supportive and relationship-centered behaviors and positive perceptions of the partner--especially important in times of stress and disagreement.Contrary to "we-talk", there is "I-talk", which refers to the frequent use of the first-person singular pronouns, such as "I", "me" and "mine", when writing or speaking. Earlier this year, researcher analyzed a set of data that came from 4,7000 people in Germany and the US.___________70___________. As you can see from the two studies, too much "I-talk" can make you feel depressed. But "we-talk" can encourage you to become more positive and create a chain effect of healthy interdependence with others.So next time you are talking to a friend, try using more "we-talk". Y ou may find yourself feeling more positive--and the effect it will have on your friend will be positive as well.高三英语第15页共19页IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.When we wake up feeling sleepy and with dark circles under eyes, many of us of ten think:” I‟m going to go to bed earlier tomorrow!” But however determined we are, chances are that we don‟t stick to our promise. This behavior is called “bedtime procrastination（拖延症）”.According to a study carried out by a group of health psychologists at Utrecht University in the Netherlands in 2014, bedtime procrastination is a common problem. In their study, 53 percent of the 2,400 participants said they didn‟t follow their sleep schedule, delaying it at least twice a week.It‟s found that they delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late, but they couldn‟t stop doing other unimportant things, which were keeping them up in the first place.“People who generally have trouble resisting temptations and sticking to their intentions are more like ly to delay going to bed.” Floor Kroese, a psychologist at Utrecht University, further explained to HuffPost.Y et, according to scientists, lack of self-control is not the only thing to blame. Our body clock also plays an important role when it comes to bed time. In order to check the influence of the body clock on sleep, psychologists at Ulm University in Germany studied the sleep patterns of 108 people in February. It was found that those who get up late are more likely to postpone their bedtime than those who wake early every morning.“The intention to go to bed earlier is not enough,” Jane Kuhnel, a psychologist at Ulm University, concluded in Popular Science. “Biological processes need to support this intention.”People always think that bedtime proc rastination isn‟t a big problem, but as Kroese told Popular Science, “the choices we make that affect out sleep could turn out to be pretty important for our health.”V. T ranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.高三英语第16页共19页72.无论幸福的定义如何变化，人们永远不会放弃追求幸福的权利。

I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time .The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him.

What do I have to do to prove that I've grown up?” These are questions that are asked time after time by teenagers around the world, and in every culture there's a different answer. For David, growing up on Pentecost Island in the South Pacific, the answer had always been clear. He had to become a land diver. Land diving is a tradition on Pentecost Island which inspired the better known sport of bungee jumping.Every year at a ceremony called Naghol, the men of the island jump off towers thirty metres tall, with long vines ( 藤条) tied to their feet. A perfect jump is one in which the shoulders land gently on the ground.People believe that this will help the crops on the island to grow. If the vine is too short and the jumper's fall is stopped before the shoulders touch the ground, the jumper is considered a coward ( 懦夫). If the vine is too long, the result can be serious injury or death.As David climbed the tower, his mother watched from below. She was holding a toy car that he used to play with when he was younger. After a boy's first land dive, his favourite toy is thrown away to show that he is no longer a child.“Before my jump, I felt very nervous,” remembers fourteen-year-old David. “As a child, I always used to watch the land divers at Naghol. Every year someone would get an injury. For a second, I panicked. I thought about changing my mind ... but you can't become a proper man without being a land diver.”David jumped. While the people down below were playing drums and singing, he fell head-first to the ground. Luckily, he landed safely and walked away with just a few bruises. And does he feel like a man now? “Well, I certainly feel more mature (成熟的),” he smiles. “And the girls in my village are much more interested in me than they were before.”24. What do we learn about land diving from the text?A. It is a show to entertain the tourists.B. It is a newer sport than bungee jumping.C. It is seen as a way to ensure a good harvest.D. It is done to choose the bravest man in the village.25. Why was David's mother holding a toy car?A. She wanted to give it to him as a gift.B. It helped him to find enough courage.C. It was the prize given to the best diver.D. She planned to throw it away after his jump.26. Why did David finally decide to jump?A. He would be rewarded if he made it.B. He didn't want to let his mother down.C. He knew he wouldn't be seriously injured.D. He wanted to prove he had become a man.27. How was life changed for David after his jump?A. He was more attractive to the opposite sex.B. He was treated as an adult by everyone.C. He became interested in land diving.D. He took a more optimistic attitude.CCalls to “stamp out bullying(霸凌)” are an unrealistic reaction to the threat of litigation (诉讼)that hangs over all schools. Bullying is partly a consequence of human nature and partly to do with the environment.From a teacher's viewpoint, it's not always easy to tell bullying from harmless fun where one of the involvers has gone a little too far. Naturally, we keep an eye on those students who are likely to be bulliedand those who tend to be the causes of trouble. However, with so much interaction between students outside the formal lesson structure, even the most experienced teacher can fail to read the undercurrents (暗流) correctly.Doing what is right in relation to bullying is not an exact science. Issues relating to gender, race, dress, physical appearance, peer pressure, and so on, all stand to make the matter complex. Many schools have a “bullying policy(政策)”. Su ch policies are useful in that they serve to concentrate teacher and administration attention on the issues, and on the rights and responsibilities of all concerned. However, the policies are born more out of a fear of litigation than a genuine desire to deal with some of the harder issues.The best defence against bullying in schools is for teachers to know their students well. Small class sizes allow teachers to better know the characters of their students and develop stronger staff-student relationships. If so, students are more likely to trust in their teachers when trouble is about. Teachers are more likely to make the right decisions and, more often than not, ward off occasions of bullying before they happen.But this happens only in a steady school environment, where teachers are familiar faces fromyear to year and, preferably, where the student population is not too large. If teachers were paidsalaries more in line with other professionals, perhaps a greater number would harbor a desire totake care of a class through to their final exams. If counseling(咨询) services and teaching aides were recognized by those who pay as more than elective extras ... If ... If ...28. What difficulty is discussed in Paragraph 2?A. Correctly interpreting students' behavior.B. Structuring lessons outside the classroom.C. Paying special attention to those often bullied.D. Students defending themselves against bullies.29. What is the author's attitude to bullying policies?A. Confused.B. Doubtful.C. Hopeful.D. Unconcerned.30. Which word can replace “ward off” in Paragraph 4?A. Catch.B. Prevent.C. Decrease.D. Record.31. What does the author conclude in the last paragraph?A. Bullying and teachers' rights are separate issues.B. Student population has little to do with bullying.C. Teachers need support to reduce bullying.D. Few people want to be teachers for life.DIn Australia and other developed countries, consumption（消耗）is viewed as important for economicgrowth. In recent years, however, concern has grown about the increasing number of people consuming limited resources at a shocking rate. The United States has only about 5 percent of the world's population, yet consumes about 35 percent of the world's energy.Impressive packaging and storage such as refrigeration is a luxury (奢侈) that consumers in developed countries take for granted(认为理所当然). In many parts of the world where refrigeration is either unavailable or too expensive, fresh food is bought daily from open-air markets.These markets make little influence on the environment. They do not use energy to store food and because they mostly operate during daylight hours, no electricity is used for lighting. Packaging is mostly unnecessary, and when needed, is often made from biodegradable(可生物降解的) vegetable matter. These markets still exist in many parts of the developed world, but are an alternative (供选择的)form of shopping. Even in developing countries, shops are fast becoming the main places for consumers.Commercial (商业的) packaging is becoming as much a part of consumption in developing countries as it is in developed countries. Plastic bags, drink cans, and hamburger containers are now thrown into rubbish piles along with banana leaves which are a more traditional form of packaging. In most cases, it all ends up at the local garbage disposal plant and is not recycled.Many people are starting to notice the influence of consumerism on the environment. It is affecting not only the earth, but also our health. Some scientists think that the greenhouse effect has increased due to the production, use and disposal of many of the products we use.32. What does the author think of packaging and refrigeration?A. It's quite necessary.B. It's a costly process.C. It's the progress of society.D. It's different from consumerism.33. What can be known about the open-air markets in developing countries?A. They are not changing.B. They can't be seen now.C. They are getting less popular.D. They are appearing in more places.34. What are rarely used as packaging according to the author?A. Drink cans.B. Plastic bags.C. Banana leaves.D. Hamburger containers.35. What's the best title for the text?A. Different ways of packaging.B. Technology vs the environmentC. Markets in developing countriesD. Consumption vs economic growth第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
