34、pulls at the heartstrings(扣人心弦) in a way while other cries dont, researchers found.Researchers found that a babys cry can trigger unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore themwhether we are parents or not. Other types of cries, including calls of animals in grea
35、t pain, fail to get the same response, suggesting the brain is programmed to respond specifically to a babys cry.A team of Oxford University scientists scanned the brains of 28 men and women as they listened to a variety of calls and cries. After 100 milliseconds roughly the time it takes to blink(眨
36、眼) two parts of the brain that respond to emotion lit up. Their response to a babys cry was particularly strong. The response was seen in both men and womeneven if they had no children.Researcher Dr Christine Parsons said, “You might read that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not s

There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary(演化的) view that both men and women would be responding to these cries.” The study was in people who were not parents, yet they are all responding at 100ms to these particular cries, so this
38、 might be a fundamental response present in all of us regardless of parental status.Fellow researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own childs cries because they need to do more “fine-grained analysis”. The team had previously found that our reactions speed

42、. A 10. D 11. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是为什么我们无法把婴儿的哭声从脑海中抹去。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句A babys cry pulls at the heartstrings(扣人心弦) in a way while other cries dont, researchers found.可知,婴儿的哭声在某种程度上扣人心弦,会引起人们的强烈的情感共鸣,故选D。【9题详解】猜测词义题。根据第一段最后一句可知,研究人员发现,孩子的哭声扣人心弦,也就是能引起大脑独特的情感反应,所以画线单词trigger意为“引发,引起”,与A项cause意
43、思接近。故选A。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary(演化的) view that both men and women would be responding to these cries.可知,男性和女性都会对孩子的哭声作出反应,故选D。【11题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段As any plane passenger will confirm, a crying baby is almost impossible to

A babys cry is difficult to ignore because it _.A. keeps on cryingB.
45、 cries harder than adultsC. causes people great painD. makes people feel strong emotionsA、B、C项在文章中都未提到,但根据生活实际,容易误选这几项,一定要根据文章内容来选答案。DWe talk continuously about how to make children more”resilient(有恢复力的)”,but whatever were doing, its not working. Rates of anxiety disorders and depression are rising
46、rapidly among teenagers. What are we doing wrong?Nassim Taleb invented the word “antifragile” and used it to describe a small but very important class of systems that gain from shocks, challenges, and disorder. The immune system is one of them: it requires exposure to certain kinds of bacteria and p
47、otential allergens(过敏源)in childhood in order to develop to its full ability.Childrens social and emotional abilities are as antifragile as their immune systems. If we overprotect kids and keep them “safe” from unpleasant social situations and negative emotions we deprive(剥夺)them of the challenges an
48、d opportunities for skill-building they need to grow strong. Such children are likely to suffer more when exposed later to other unpleasant but ordinary life events, such as teasing and social rejectionIts not the kids fault. In the UK, as in the US, parents became much more fearful in the 1980s and
49、 1990s as cable TV and later the Internet exposed everyone, more and more, to those rare occurrences of crimes and accidents that now occur less and less, Outdoor play and independent mobility went down; screen time and adult-monitored activities went up.Yet free play in which kids work out their ow
50、n rules of engagement, take small risks, and learn to master small dangers turns out to be vital for the development of adult social and even physical competence, Depriving them of free play prevents their social-emotional growth. Norwegian play researchers Ellen Sandseter and Leif Kennair warned: “
51、We may observe an increased anxiety or mental disorders in society if children are forbidden from participating in age adequate risky play.”They wrote those words in 2011. Over the following few years, their prediction came true. Kids born after 1994 are suffering from much higher rates of anxiety d
52、isorders and depression than the previous generation did. Besides, there is also a rise in the rate at which teenage girls are admitted to hospital for deliberately harming themselves.What can we do to change these trends? How can we raise kids strong enough to handle the ordinary and extraordinary
53、challenges of life? We cant guarantee that giving primary school children more independence today will bring down the rate of teenage suicide tomorrow. The links between childhood overprotection and teenage mental illness are suggestive but not clear-cut. Yet there are good reasons to suspect that b
54、y depriving our naturally antifragile kids of the wide range of experiences they need to become strong, we are systematically preventing their growth. We should let go-and let them grow.12. Why does the author mention the immune system in Paragraph 2?A To stress its importanceB. To analyze the cause
55、 of anxietyC. To question the latest discovery.D. To help understand a new word13. Parents overprotect children because_A. they want to keep children from being teasedB. they are concerned about their childrens safetyC. parent-monitored activities are a mustD. children are not independent enough14.
56、According to the author, free play can_A. develop children s leadership skillsB. strengthen children s friendshipC. reduce childrens risky behaviorD. promote childrens resilience15. Which of the following does the author probably agree with? A. Stop trying to perfect your childB. It takes great cour
57、age to raise childrenC. Prepare the child for the road, not the road for the child.D. While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C【解析】本文是一篇议论文。主要内容是青少年焦虑症和抑郁症的比例正在迅速上升,是由于父母的过度保护,使得青少年缺少“适应力”,作者呼吁家长们懂得放手,让孩子们自己走。【12题详解】推理
58、判断题。根据第二段的The immune system is one of them(免疫系统就是其中之一),此处说明免疫系统是前文提到的a small but very important class of systems(很小但很重要的系统)之一,也就是用来帮助读者理解“antifragile”这个新词,故选D。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的we overprotect kids and keep them “safe” from unpleasant social situations and negative emotions(我们过度保护孩子,让他们远离不愉快的社会环境和负面
59、情绪),由此可知,父母过分保护孩子,因为他们担心孩子的安全,故选B。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段的free play in which kids work out their own rules of engagement, take small risks, and learn to master small dangers turns out to be vital for the development of adult social and even physical competence(孩子们在自由玩耍中制定自己的参与规则,承担小的风险,并学会掌握小的危险,这对成人社交能力
60、甚至身体能力的发展是至关重要的)由此可知,自由玩耍可以增强儿童的适应力。故选D。【15题详解】推理判断题。由最后一段的We should let go-and let them grow.(我们应该放手,让他们成长。)可推知,作者可能同意的观点是让孩子为路做准备,而不是为孩子准备路。故选C。第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。Many of us live with a roommate at some stage Sometimes, there can be problems Who hasn

68、 timeG. However, living with another person also comes with many benefits【答案】16. G 17. D 18. E 19. A 20. B【解析】本文为应用说明文。本文主要介绍为什么与他人合住有利于改善你的日常饮食。【16题详解】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本句是第一段与第二段的承上启下句。第一段说与人合住会出现问题,第二段叙述是与他人合住的好处就是让你感觉更安全等许多好处,可知这是合住的好处。由此可判断出上下文是转折关系,由此可知G项(然而,和另一个人一起生活也会带来很多好处)符合题意,故选G。【17题详解】考查
69、对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本空所在的第二段是叙述与他人合住的好处,而且是你没有注意到的,下面会再举一个你没有注意到的好处,例如,我们与他人一起生活时,实际上更有可能吃更健康的食物。因此D项就符合题意,故选D。【18题详解】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。上一段说“为了研究独居的影响,研究者研究后发现独居的人吃不健康的食品。接着下一段说研究人员相信烹饪、食物准备和饮食所扮演的社会和文化角色可能是重要的考虑因素。由此可知,这是对上一段研究发现的解释,分析选项可知E项(什么能解释这些发现?)符合题意,故选E项。【19题详解】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本空后的内容可知,本段说的是独居的人
70、可能吃不健康的食品与烹饪知识有关,因为没有这方面的知识,所以就没有烹饪技巧,不会做饭。分析选项可知A项(烹饪技巧可能是另一个因素)符合题意。故选A。【20题详解】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据转折连词however可知前后两句意思是相反的。本空前的内容“然而,身边有人质疑你在凌晨3点吃冷冻披萨的决定对你是有帮助的。”那么下一句自然是说,合住的人对你也有不好的影响。分析选项可知B项(换句话说,室友可以把你的注意力放在不健康的套路上)正是与空前的意思相反,因此选项B符合题意。第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给

He had to sell some cabbages and carrots in the market. The next morning he took two baskets of vegetables to town. But it was raining hard tha
102、t afternoon and there were few people in the street. When his vegetables were sold out, it was dark. He bought some medicine and hurried to his village. On his way home he saw a person lying on the snow. He placed his baskets on the ground and was going to help the person to get up. At that time he
103、found it was a dead man and there was much blood on his body. He was so afraid that he ran away quickly, without taking the baskets with him.The next afternoon the farmer was sent to the police station. Having shown the baskets, an officer asked, “Are these yours” “Yes, sir.” the farmer answered tim
104、idly(胆怯地). “Have you killed the man” “No, no, sir.” the farmer said in a hurry. “When did you see the dead man” “About seven last evening.” “Did you see who killed the man” “No, sir.” The officer brought out a knife and asked, “Have you seen it yet” “No, sir.” The officer became angry and told the p

108、l and a quarrel into a fight, and finally a tragedy happened with one of them being killed. The young man was so scared and guilty that he ran away. In nature he was honest. He wanted to apologize to his friends family and get the innocent farmer out of trouble. The young man was in jail and the rud
109、e officer got due punishment. The innocent farmer was released finally.【解析】【分析】这一篇读后续写作文。【详解】读后续写首先要读懂所给的材料,一般读后续写为记叙文,根据前面事情发展的情节和所给的两个段落的第一句话来续写后面的情节。这篇文章描述了一位卖菜的农民在回家的路上看到一个死人,非常害怕,把菜篮子丢在旁边跑回家,第二天警察根据菜篮子找到他,农民因此而蒙冤。读懂文章后,考虑每一段给出的第一句,我们后面的续写情节要以第一句为基础:本文第一段的第一句:The officer was so angry that he ask
110、ed the policeman to beat him up again.警官非常生气以至于让一位警察把农民痛打一顿,后面续写我们可以进一步描述农民在警察局受到的威胁,虐待等,但是农民还是没有承认他杀了人。农民不承认杀人一定要表达出来,因为第二段的第一句为:The farmer was lucky. A few days later,农民是幸运的,几天后想象出一个农民获救,剧情反转的理由。最后的结尾,真正的杀人凶手被逮住,警官为自己的暴力付出代价,农民被释放回家。【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:refuse to,commit the murder,apologize to等高级词汇;He was quite aware of the consequence if he gave in for fear of being treated badly.条件状语从句;The young man was so scared and guilty that he ran away.结果状语从句等高级句式。
