10、， 从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳答案。 A In the future we might live somewhere other than Earth, like Mars. Some people ask how this will be possible. Well, Mars is in fact a lot the same as the earth. The days are almost the same as those on the earth. However, the two planets vary in temperature. Since th
11、ere is mostly carbon dioxide on Mars, it would be quite difficult for a human to just land on it. So, special types of homes and space suits have to be designed. The space suits should be almost like the ones astronauts use now, and except that they have to be warmer so that the astronauts can survi
12、ve the cold temperatures. The space suits must also be able to withstand (承受) high pressure and potentially dangerous radiation that can kill.The houses should be similar to our homes today with a slight difference. All of the houses and other buildings should be built inside a large dome (圆顶状物) or
13、bubble. The domes should be made out of glass, and would also be able to prevent radiation from affecting the people inside. The domes will be connected to a machine (like plants which turn carbon dioxide into oxygen).With Mars population growing, how would the people on its surface get fresh food a
14、nd water? Just like humans use domes, they can also use domes to grow plants. However, the domes where the plants are grown must be built to expand. Once we upgrade the domes to a larger size then we can grow more food by cultivating (种植) more plants. To get the food or come in connect with other do
15、mes, there will be long narrow tunnels like roads that connect to each dome separating them by several doors so that the pressure in each dome can remain the same.On Mars, so many other things are available to us. As humans, we can have access to rare and fairly expensive metals that arent very easy
16、 to get hold of on Earth, and a colony on Mars enhances (提高) our chances of finding these metals. So when someone here on Earth says that going to Mars is impossible, please tell them that theyll never know it until they try and they may try very soon. After all its our future. Why not make it on Ma
17、rs? 21. It is difficult for humans to live on Mars because of all the following EXCEPT _.A. too much radiationB. cold temperatureC. lack of enough oxygen D. lack of houses22. One of the reasons why we are eager to explore Mars may be that _.A. we can find rare and expensive metals there easily B. we
18、ll get too bored to live on the earth in the futureC. our technology will become much advanced D. we want to know more about the unknown world23. What is the authors attitude towards living on Mars? _.A. PessimisticB. UncertainC. Optimistic. D. Opposed B Exactly five years ago, on New Years Eve, I w
19、as invited to a childrens ball by a man high up in the business world, who had his connections, his circle of acquaintances, and his close friends. So it seemed as though the childrens ball was merely an excuse for the parents to come together and discuss matters of interest to themselves, quite inn
20、ocently and casually. I was an outsider, and , as I had no special matters to air, I was able to spend the evening independently of the others. There was another gentleman present who like me had just stumbled upon (偶然发现) this affair of domestic happiness. He was the first to attract my attention. H
21、is appearance was not that of a man of noble birth. He was tall, rather thin, very serious, and well dressed. Obviously he had no heart for the family celebration. The instant he went off into a corner by himself the smile disappeared from his face, and his thick dark brows knitted into a frown(皱眉).
22、 He knew no one except the host and showed every sign of being bored to death, though bravely keeping the role of thorough enjoyment to the end. Later I learned that he was a provincial, had come to the capital on some important business, had brought a letter of recommendation to our host, and our h
23、ost had taken him under his protection, not at all with love. It was merely out of politeness that he had invited him to the childrens ball. They did not play cards with him. They did not offer him cigars. No one entered into conversation with him. Possibly they recognized the bird by its feathers f
24、rom a distance. Thus, my gentleman, not knowing what to do with his hands, was compelled(迫使) to spend the evening stroking (抚摸) his whiskers(胡须). His whiskers were really fine, but he stroked them so eagerly that one got the feeling that the whiskers had come into the world first and afterwards the
25、man in order to stroke them.24. According to the author, the real purpose of the children ball was that _. A. the parents wanted to make their children happy B. the parents had a chance to meet and socialize C. the host hoped to make the guests happy D. the host wanted to give a welcome to an import
26、ant guest25.The gentleman was unhappy because _. A. he was one of the poor relatives of the host B. he was from the countryside C. he was trying to do some business with the host D. he was not really welcome in the ball26.The gentleman touched his whiskers eagerly just because _. A. he liked his whi
27、skers very much B. he had the habit of doing so C. he was embarrassed in the ball D. he felt uneasy wearing whiskers27. When the author was telling the story, he was _. A. humorous B. serious C. joking D. doubtful C Reading may be fundamental, but how the brain gives meaning to letters on a page has
28、 been a mystery. Two new studies fill in some details on how the brains of efficient readers handle words. One of the studies, published in the April 30 Neuron, suggests that a visual-processing area of the brain recognizes common words as whole units. Another study, published online April 27 in PLO
29、SONE, makes it known that the brain operates two fast parallel systems for reading, linking visual recognition of words to speech. Maximilian Riesenhuber, a neuroscientist at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., wanted to know whether the brain reads words letter by letter or recognizes words
30、as whole objects. He and his colleagues showed sets of real words or nonsense(无意义的词语)words to volunteers undergoing fMRI scans. The words differed inonly one letter, such as “farm” and “form” or “soat” and “poat”, or were completely different, such as “farm” and “coat” or “poat” and “hime”. The rese
31、archers were particularly interested in what happens in the visual word form area, or VWFA, an area on the left side of the brain just behind the ear that is involved in recognizing words. Riesenhuber and his colleagues found that neurons(神经元)in the VWFA respond strongly to changes in real words. Ch
32、anging “farm” to “form”, for example, produced as great a change in activity as changing “farm” to“ coat”, the team reports in Neuron. The area responded slowly to single-letter changes in made-up words. The data suggests that readers grasp real words as whole objects, rather than focusing on letter
33、s or letter combinations. And as a readers exposure to a word increases, the brain comes to recognize the shape of the word. Meaning is passed on after recognition in the brain, Riesenhuber says. The researchers dont yet know how longer and less familiar words are recognized, or if the brain can be
34、trained to recognize nonsense words as a unit.28. Riesenhubers research probably focuses on whether the brain _. A. recognizes words as a unit or reads them letter by letter. B. operates two fast parallel systems for reading C. takes longer to read less familiar words or not D. handles nonsense word
35、s as a unit29. Riesenhuber and his colleagues carried out their research by _. A. giving pairs of real words totally different B. arranging the words in different order C. showing pairs of different words D. making volunteers read some longer words30. Riesenhubers research is significant in that it
36、shows how the brain _. A. responds to familiar words B. relates meaning to letters C. recognizes the form of a word D. reacts to made-up words 第二节 （共五小题；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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Stay on the brighter side of lifeOne very important component of optimism is gratitude or fee
37、ling grateful. In fact, there is a strong connection between a grateful attitude and a heightened sense of well-being. Appreciate all the positives in your life by starting a gratitude journal in order to remember what youre grateful for. _31_ Feeling down? Instead of feeling sorry for yourself wait
38、ing for the universe to throw you a bone, try acting like youre happyeven if you arent. A sincere smile and a forced smile will cause the same chemical reactions in your brain, so you can actually fool your mind into feeling better by making it react chemically as if things were going well. _32_ Rea
39、ssure yourself that everything is goodeven if you dont feel it. “_33_ If youre stuck in traffic, then everything else must be going horribly too,” says Anne Parker, a wellness counselor. By blowing negative events out of proportion, youre setting yourself up for feeling down all day. Instead, acknow
40、ledge that youre stuck in traffic, but also bring to mind something good, like the beautiful scenery outside the window. That way, youll get in the habit of forbidding negative circumstances from blanketing your whole day. Swearing to lose 20 pounds or to run a marathon seems like goals leading to h
41、appiness, but they take time to achieve. _34_You may even end up admitting that you have been defeated. However, if you focus on the small milestones that occur along the way, you will feel positive about your progress, which will give you the strength to keep going. _35_ Try making someone elses da
42、y better. A report by United Healthcare and Volunteer Match found that volunteers are 72% more likely to characterize themselves as optimistic compared with non-volunteers. Plus, 89% of volunteers say that volunteering has improved their sense of well-being, and 92% say that it enriches their sense
43、of purpose in life. A. Try to help someone in need.B. Want to give your attitude a lift?C. People tend to think in an either-or way.D. Act in an optimistic waysmile, laugh, tell a joke.E. Youll fail to appreciate more important things in your life. F. By focusing on not having accomplished them yet,
44、 you will start to feel down on yourself.G. By remembering the pleasant things in your life, you can actually turn a negative attitude around. 第三部分. 英语知识运用 (共两节，满分45分)第一节 完形填空（共20小题， 每小题1.5分， 满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Shyness is the 36 of much unhappiness for a great many p
45、eople. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively 37 with their own appearance and 38 . Worrisome thoughts are constantly 39 in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing 40 clothes? It is obvious that such uncomfo
46、rtable feelings must 41 people adversely. A persons self-concept is 42 in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other peoples reactions. 43 , the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives. Shy people, having 44 self-esteem (尊重), are
47、 likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive 45 criticism; they feel it 46 their inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliments (恭维) because they believe they are 47 of praise.
48、 A shy person may respond to a compliment with a 48 like this one: “Youre just saying that to make me feel good. I know its not true.” It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, 49 it is harmful. Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least 50 ? Fortunately, people can 51 shyn
