【解析】

這是一篇記敘文。文章講述了一位35歲的澳大利亞母親通過擁抱陌生人,一年掙5.8萬美元。她認(rèn)為她的擁抱能幫助那些遭受孤獨、抑郁或低自信的人。

1

考查主謂一致。該句中主語為one thing,we often ignore in our daily lives為后置定語修飾one thing,故謂語為第三人稱單數(shù)形式。故填is

2

考查名詞。other譯為“別的,其他的”后跟可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式,故填problems。

3

考查非謂語動詞。suffer在該句中為非謂語動詞,其邏輯主語為“those”指那些人,二者構(gòu)成主謂關(guān)系,用動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞形式。故填suffering

4

考查形容詞。句意:我擁抱我的顧客時,我可以看到他們的緊張和焦慮消失了。設(shè)空處與tension并列作see的賓語,此處應(yīng)使用名詞形式,故將anxious變?yōu)?/span>anxiety。故填anxiety。

5

考查不定式。分析句子可知,what引導(dǎo)的賓語從句中省略了謂語動詞do,空格和后面部分在句中做目的狀語,應(yīng)使用動詞不定式。故填to cure。

6

考查代詞。設(shè)空處與my customers并列作動詞helps的賓語,應(yīng)用I的賓格me。故填me

7

考查冠詞。此處a number of譯為“許多、大量”,修飾可數(shù)名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式。故填a。

8

考查連詞。句意:盡管學(xué)多人認(rèn)為她做這樣的工作一定是瘋了,杰西卡自信她做出了正確的選擇。根據(jù)題意可知,此處表達(dá)讓步關(guān)系,應(yīng)使用連接詞though\although\while。故填While\Although\Though。

9

考查形容詞。設(shè)空處在系動詞后作表語,應(yīng)使用confidence的形容詞形式confident。故填confident。

10

考查介詞。此處考查have an effect on\upon sb\sth譯為“對某人或某事產(chǎn)生影響”,為固定搭配。故填on\upon。

Dear Peter,

I'm glad to hear from you. Thank you very much for inviting me to America in this summer. I'd like to accept your warm invitation, and I'm sorry that I can't go to your hometown and visit you.

I refuse your invitation just due to the following reason. First of all, it cost a lot to travel abroad, which will add an extra burden to my family. Beside, I plan to do part-time job in the summer vacation. I can not only earn some money to cover my expenses but improving my social skills. For the reasons mentioning above, I believe you can understand how I can't accept your invitation. I hope this won't affect our friendship from the bottom of your heart.

【題目】 There are many gardening tips. Some suggest playing music for your house plants, having conversations with them, or even giving them a gentle touch now and then. Most of these practices are probably more for the benefit of the gardener than the garden, and generally harmless enough but except the last one. Your plants really dislike it when you touch them.

A new study out of the La Trobe Institute for Agriculture and Food has found that most plants are extremely sensitive to touch, and even a light touch can significantly stunt(阻礙) their growth. “The lightest touch from a human, animal, insect, or even plants touching each other in the wind, can cause a huge gene response in the plant,” Jim Whelan, who led the new study, said. “Within 30 minutes of being touched, 10% of the plant’s genome(基因組) is changed. This involves a huge expenditure(消耗) of energy which is taken away from plant growth. If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by up to 30%.”

Whelan and his team are still trying to find out why plants respond, at the genetic level, so strongly. They do have some theories, however. We know that when an insect lands on a plant, genes are activated(激活) preparing the plant to defend itself against being eaten ,” said Dr. Yan Wang, co-author of the study.

Until more research is done, it’s just a guess at this point. Still, the findings might already lead to new methods for how agriculturalists deal with their crops, to best promote healthier growth.

It’s worth noticing that while the study found that plants often respond to just a single touch in negative ways, it’s really repeated touching that causes lasting stunted growth. That’s because the plants are looking for patterns in the touching, to tell harmful touch from random touch. So it doesn’t matter if you accidently brush up against a bush during a walk through the woods.

1How is the passage mainly developed?

A.By comparing

B.By giving examples

C.By listing numbers

D.By showing results of studies

2Why can touching stunt a plant growing according to the study?

A.It leads to the plant’s energy expenditure.

B.It makes the plant sensitive to threats.

C.It causes a genetic disorder in the plant.

D.It prevents the plant absorbing nutrients.

3What’s the importance of the study by Whelan and his team?

A.It gives us more useful gardening tips.

B.It helps find ways to ensure plants’ healthy growth.

C.It contributes to the further study on genes.

D.It uses data to warn people not to touch plants.

4What is the passage mainly about?

A.Something is done to help plants grow.

B.Plants’ genome can be changed easily.

C.Plants don’t really like to be touched.

D.What we do every day may destroy plants.

【題目】Monkeys surprise us

Humans are the most intelligent animals on Earth. 1But sometimes, our way of thinking can become an obstacle (障礙).

Julia Watzek, a graduate student in psychology at Georgia State University, US, recently did some research on the problem-solving abilities of both monkeys and humans.2They intended to test their ability to change their strategies(策略) in the game. In this game, each player was shown four squares on a computer screen: one striped square, one spotted square and two blank squares. While being trained to play the game, they learned that clicking the stripedsquare and then the spotted square would cause a blue triangle to pop up in one of the blank squares. Clicking on the blue triangle would give them a reward. 3 But partway through the game, the researchers introduced a shortcut (捷徑). Suddenly, the blue triangle started appearing at the start of gameplay, alongside the striped and spotted squares.4Remarkably, about 70 percent of the monkeys figured out this shortcut immediately. 5 Only 1 out of 56 human players figured out the shortcut right away.

Watzek’s conclusion was that humans tend to get “stuck in their ways” when it comes to strategic thinking. Things such as standardized testing and formal schooling might cause humans to use the same strategy over and over, even when it doesn’t work very well.

A.Monkeys never did better than human.

B.She and her team had them play a simple game.

C.The spotted square didn’t appear at all till the end.

D.Humans, on the other hand, were slow to figure it out.

E.We have mental abilities that other animals don’t have.

F.If a player clicked on the blue triangle, they’d receive their reward right away.

G.Human players would hear a “woop!” sound and monkey players would receive a snack.

Our class organized a environmental protection activity in the park in this morning. When we arrived there, we collected the throwing rubbish, such as waste paper, plastic bag and bottles. We also put up several notices to ask people take care of the plants and trees around us. Besides, we give a speech about the importance of the environment on that we are relying. In my opinion, we should take actively measures to prevent pollution but everyone should make contributions to it. Only by saving the environment can we save us.
