18、 grown older, I often hear people of my age say things like they just dont like good music as they used to. Why does this happen? Luckily, psychology can give us some insights into this puzzle. Musical tastes begin to shape as early as age 13 or 14. By the time were in our early 20s, these tastes ge
19、t locked into place pretty firmly.In fact, studies have found that by the time we tum33, most-of us have stopped listening to new music. Meanwhile, popular songs released when youre in your early teens are likely to remain quite popular among your age group for the rest of your life.There could be a
20、 biological explanation for this, as theres evidence that the brains ability to make subtle distinctions between different chords, rhythms, and melodies weakens with age, So to older people, newer, less familiar songs might all sound the same.But there are maybe some simpler reasons for older people
21、s aversion(讨厌)to newer music. One of the most researched laws of social psychology is something called the mere exposure effect, which actually means that the more were exposed to something, the more we tend to like it.When youre in your early teens, you probably spend a fair amount of time listenin
22、g to music or watching music videos. Your favorite songs and artists become familiar, comforting parts of your routine.For many middle-aged people, job and family obligations increase, so theres less time to spend discovering new music. Instead, many will simply listen to old, familiar favorites whe
23、n they had more free time.Of course, those teen years werent necessarily carefree. Theyre famously confusing, which is why so many TV shows and movies focus on the high school turmoil(混乱).Psychology research has shown that the emotions we experience as teens seem more intense than those that come la
24、ter. And we also know that intense emotions are associated with stronger memories and preferences. Both of these might explain why the songs we listen to during this period become so memorable and beloved.24. Whats the main idea of this passage?A. Decline in the quality of new music. B. Older people

28、gers emotions are much stronger.CGerolamo Cardano, wrote, Leonardo da Vinci was an excellent painter. To call Leonardo an excellent painter is like labeling Shakespeare a clever wordsmith, He was a true genius, recognized in his own time and idolized in ours. His paintings are as secret and attracti
29、ve as himself, done with the hand of an angel, the intellect of a scientist, and the soul of a romantic. His drawings are among the most beautiful ever made; his most treasured painting, the Mona Lisa, is undoubtedly the most famous in the world.Leonardo da Vinci was born in 1452. Around 1469, his f
30、ather took him to Florence. There, Leonardo start an apprenticeship(学徒期)at the studio of Andrea del Verrocchio, with whom he studied for at least six years. The boy mastered every medium, discovering so much so fast that it seemed to him that everything must eventually be revealed to his searching.
31、In painting, he not only outshone his more mature colleagues but also his teacher. Assigned to paint the figure of an angel, he gave it a whole new dimension that drew the viewer directly into the painting, in a, way that Verrocchios inhibited(拘谨的)style could never do. Some say that Verrocchio never
32、 painted again.His love of painting notwithstanding, it was knowledge itself that was Leonardos great love-knowledge, and the experience from which it may be drawn. To acquire it, Leonardo turned to a diverse array of fields: mathematics, geometry, astronomy, geology, botany, and zoology, as well as
33、 painting and drawing.In 1482, Leonardo went to Milan. Two great works mark his years in Milan. One of them was a bronze statue of a conquering hero riding a horse. The horse was to be colossal, in a pose full of motion and life. The concept was so bold, so ambitious, that it finally brought Leonard
34、o产he praise he sought. His contemporaries thought it could not be created, but Leonardo devised workable plans. Sadly, he was denied the chance to complete his project. War broke out, and the bronze was used for cannon instead.28. What does the author say about Leonardo in paragraph 1?A. Today he is
35、 considered much more talented than Shakespeare.B. He was known in his own period and is greatly respected today.C. His drawings are thought to be more beautiful than his paintings.D. His painting Mona Lisa was not well known when he first painted it.29. What can we know about Verrocchio from the pa
36、ssage?A. He was a great inspiration for his student Leonardo da Vinci.B. He stopped painting because he was not as skillful as da Vinci.C. He taught da Vinci more about nature than about the art of painting.D. He was unable to teach da Vinci much because of his different style.30. What does the unde

It was used to create other works of art.C. It was used to make weapons in the war. D. It was destroyed in the war unexpectedly.D
38、People of every culture tell fairy tales but the same story often takes various forms in different parts of the world. Anthropologist Jamie Tehrani tried to discover how the stories have evolved and which elements have survived longest.Tehranis analysis focused on Little Red Riding Hood in its many
39、forms, which include another Western fairy tale known as The Wolf and the Kids. Checking for versions of these two tales and similar stories from Africa, East Asia and other regions, he ended up with 58 stories recorded from oral traditions.Once he confirmed that they were indeed related, he tried t
40、o explore how they have developed and changed over time. Studies suggest that these stories include really important information about the environment and the possible dangers-something relevant to survival, he says. Yet in his analysis such elements were just as flexible as seemingly unimportant de
41、tails. What, then, is important enough to be reproduced from generation to generation?The answer seems to be the horrible aspects of the story, which turned out to be the best preserved of all. Why are these details maintained while other features are not? Tehrani has an idea, In an oral context, a
42、story wont survive because of one great teller. It also needs to be interesting when its told by someone whos not necessarily a great storyteller. Maybe being swallowed whole by a wolf, then cut out of its stomach alive is so absorbing that it helps the story remain popular.Jack Zipes is unconvinced
43、 by Tehranis views. Even if theyre horrible, they wont stick unless they matter, he says. He believes the lasting theme of women as victims in stories like Little Red Riding Hood explains why they continue to feel relevant. But Tehrani points out that although this is often the case in Western versi
44、ons, it is not always true elsewhere. In Chinese and Japanese versions, often known as The Tiger Grandmother, the criminal is a woman, and in both Iran and Nigeria, the victim is a boy.Mathias Clasen isnt surprised by Tehranis findings. Habits and morals change, but the things that scare us, and the
45、 fact that we seek out entertainment thats designed to scare us-those are constant, he says. Clasen believes that scary stories teach us what it feels like to be afraid without having to experience real danger, and so build up resistance to negative emotions.32. What method did Jamie Tehrani use to
46、test his ideas about fairy tales?A. He distinguished the various themes of all fairy tales.B. He looked at unrelated stories from different countries.C. He compared oral and written forms of the same stories.D. He studied many different forms of the same basic story.33. What does Jack Zipes suggest
47、when discussing Tehranis views?A. Tehrani ignores key changes in the role of women.B. Stories that are too frightening are not always taken seriously.C. Tehrani over emphasizes the importance of violence in stories.D. Features of stories only survive if they have a deeper significance.34. Why does T
48、ehrani refer to Chinese and Japanese fairy tales?A. To suggest that crime is a global problem.B. To add more evidence for Jack Zipes ideas.C. To indicate that Jack Zipes theory is incorrect.D. To imply that all fairy tales have a similar meaning.35. What does Mathias Clasen believe about fairy tales
49、?A. They reflect the changing values of our society.B. They are a safe way of learning to deal with fear.C. They are a type of entertainment some people avoid.D. They reduce our ability to cope with realistic problems.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。Giving children
50、access to all varieties of literature is extremely important for their success. Educators, parents, and community members should help students develop a love and passion for reading. Reading literature is important in developing cognitive skills to be able to succeed in a school or work setting. 36
51、The first value to note is that childrens literature provides students with the opportunity to respond to literature and develop their own opinions about the topic. This strengthens the cognitive developmental domain, as it encourages deeper thought about literature. 37 It allows for some difference
52、 in opinion. One reader may take something completely different away from the piece of literature than the next reader, based on the two personal viewpoints and experiences.Second, childrens literature provides an avenue for students to learn about their own cultural heritage and the cultures of oth
53、er people. However, when teaching students about the cultural heritage of others, one should be very careful in selecting which books to recommend to young readers. 38 However, there are some childrens books that are more accurate in teaching the cultural differences of others. Many books are availa
54、ble that describe culture as an important piece of society that is to be treasured and valued, and those books can have great value for students. 39 Stories have the power to promote emotional and moral development. Childrens literature contains numerous moments of crisis, when characters make moral
55、 decisions and contemplate the reasons for their decisions. Childrens literature encourages students to think deeper about their own feelings.Finally, childrens literature is of value because it is a timeless tradition. So we must give them access to a basic literary heritage of timeless books. Qual

Third, childrens literature helps students develop emotional intelligence.C. Quality literature does not tell the reader everything he/she needs to know.D.
57、 It gives students appreciation about their own cultural heritage as well as those of others.E. Childrens literature is of value because it develops personality and social development.F.
