It has long been believed that
33、, at one time, Mars was abundant with life. Now seemingly dead, the _19_ fossils could answer questions about our own evolution and that of our planet. One theory is that bacterial life on our planet didnt start here, but was transferred via asteroid (小行星) from Mars.One benefit _20_ by scientists li

But incentives (激励) can also _22_, minifying the very behavior theyre meant to encourage.A generation ago, Richard Titmus
42、s claimed that paying people to donate blood _23_ the supply. Economists were skeptical, citing a lack of scientific evidence. But since then, new data and models have prompted a sea change in how economists think about incentives-showing, among other things, that Titmuss was right in so many cases
43、that businesses should _24_.Experimental economists have found that offering to pay women for donating blood decreases the number willing to donate by almost half, and that letting them contribute the payment to charity _25_ the effect.

Close supervision of workers coupled with _30_ for performance is textbook economics, but it can lead to the depression of employees.Perhaps most important, incentives affect what our act
47、ions signal, whether were being self-interested or civic-minded, manipulated or trusted and they can imply-sometimes wrongly-what _31_ us.

54、】考查动词词义辨析。句意:但是激励也可能产生适得其反的结果减少原本想要鼓励的行为。 A.overflow溢出;B.backfire适得其反;C.survive幸存;D.work工作。根据下文“minifying the very behavior theyre meant to encourage.”可知,激励减少了原本要鼓励的行为,因此产生了适得其反的结果。故选B。【23题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意:约2030年之前,理查德蒂特马斯(Richard Titmuss)声称,付钱让人们献血会减少血液供应。A.reduced减少;B.affected影响;C.afforded给予;提供;D.ba
55、lanced保持稳定。根据上文“But incentives (激励) can also _2_, minifying the very behavior theyre meant to encourage.”可知,激励可以产生适得其反的结果,减少原本要激励的行为,因此推断付钱让人们献血会减少供应。故选A。【24题详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意:但自那以后,新的数据和模型促使经济学家对激励的看法发生了翻天覆地的变化这表明,蒂特马斯在很多情况下都是正确的,企业应该注意到这一点。A.cut back削减;B.stand by支持;袖手旁观;C.take note注意到;记笔记;D.hold on等一

57、可推断,激励会产生适得其反的结果,因此推断给捐血的女性报酬没有更多的人献血,但是让她们把捐血所得给福利事业就扭转了局面。故选B。【26题详解】考查固定短语辨析。 句意:恰恰相反,人们希望受到他人尊重,希望被看作是具有高尚道德和有尊严的人。 A.In other words换句话说;B.On the contrary恰恰相反;C.By contrast相比之下;D.In addition此外。根据上文“Dozens of recent experiments show that rewarding self-interest with economic incentives can have t
58、he opposite result when they destroy what Adam Smith called the moral sentiments(情绪)”.”可知,大量近期的实验表明,当激励损害了亚当斯密所说的“道德情操”时,以经济激励奖赏私利可能产生适得其反的结果。因此推断,相反的,人们希望受到他人尊重,希望被看作是具有高尚道德和美好情操的人。故选B。【27题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。 句意:恰恰相反,人们希望受到他人尊重,希望被看作是具有高尚道德和有尊严的人。 A.satisfied满意的;B.determined意志坚定的;C.dignified有尊严的;D.discou

66、 Each passage is followed 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)Wonder materialMaurice Ward and his family ran ladies hairdress
67、ers in Yorkshire, England. Ward was an inventor by nature and liked to mix his own hair dyes and products, claiming that they were more effective than the products supplied by cosmetics manufacturers like LOreal and Garnier. In the 1980s his inventiveness found a new outlet when he bought an industr

Then in 1985 something happened which was to change his life.A British Airtours plane bound for Corfu caught fire at Manchester Airport just before it took off. Although the plane was sti
69、ll on the ground, the results of the fire were destructive within forty seconds, 55 of the people inside died from smoke and poisonous air breathed in.

The results got better and better until finally he hit on a material that would resist temperatures of 2, 500
71、C, not give off poisonous air and still remain cool enough to be touched. Starlite was bornYet here we are, thirty years on, and Starlite is still an unpatented and unexploited material. So what went wrong?Naturally, Ward kept the formula a secret. He never wrote it down, only telling the exact prop
72、ortions of its 21 ingredients to a few of his closest family members. He refused to apply for a patent, since that would involve revealing its composition. No one else was allowed to analyse it nor was any company given a sample for fear that they might reverse-engineer it.Consequently, no deal was
73、ever struck and in May 2011 Maurice Ward died. It would be incorrect to say that he took his secret to the grave because some of the family still know it, but he certainly took his own dreams of personal wealth and fame with him. Why? Was it greed? Was it that, as an amateur, he felt a lack of respe

B【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Maurice Ward天生就是个发明家,直到他发明了蓝锆石,却因为他对该发明的过度保护,使得在他去世多年后,这仍然是一种未经专利和开发的材料,这对世界来说是巨大的损失。【36题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“Ward was an inventor by nature and liked to mix his own hair dyes and products, claiming that they were more eff
79、ective than the products supplied by cosmetics manufacturers like LOreal and Garnier.(Ward天生就是个发明家,喜欢把自己的染发剂和产品混合在一起,声称它们比欧莱雅和卡尼尔等化妆品制造商提供的产品更有效。)”和下文内容可知,Ward生来就有创造精神。故选B项。【37题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“When he found a formulation that looked promising, he would shape it into sheet form and then test its fire
80、resistance. The results got better and better until finally he hit on a material that would resist temperatures of 2, 500 C, not give off poisonous air and still remain cool enough to be touched. Starlite was born.(当他发现一种看起来有希望的配方时,他就把它做成片状,然后测试它的防火性能。结果越来越好,直到最后他找到了一种材料,可以抵抗2500摄氏度的温度,不释放有毒的空气,仍然保持
81、足够的凉爽,以供触摸。蓝锆石诞生了。)”可知,他对材料做了实验,并检查了它们的耐火性能,这样蓝锆石诞生了。故选D项。【38题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“He refused to apply for a patent, since that would involve revealing its composition. No one else was allowed to analyse it nor was any company given a sample for fear that they might reverse-engineer it.(他拒绝申请专利,因为这将涉及到揭示其
82、成分。没有人被允许分析它,也没有给任何公司提供样本,因为他们担心可能会对它进行逆向工程。)”和最后一段“It would be incorrect to say that he took his secret to the grave because some of the family still know it, but he certainly took his own dreams of personal wealth and fame with him.(如果说他把自己的秘密带进了坟墓,那是不正确的,因为家里的一些人知道,但他确实把自己追求个人财富和名声的梦想也带走了。)”可知,Ma
83、urice本可以从蓝锆石的发明中得到一大笔财富,但由于他生前拒绝给蓝锆石申请专利,也没有把成分公之于众,所以他没有得到相应的财富和名声。故选C项。【39题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“What is certain is that his loss is the worlds loss, too.(可以肯定的是,他的损失也是全世界的损失。)”和文章内容可知,Ward发明了对人类发展极其有用的蓝锆石,但是由于对自己发明的过度保护,使得这项发明在他去世多年后仍然是一种未经专利和开发的材料,这对世界来说是一种损失。因此我们可以推断,对一项发明的保护可能会给世界带来巨大的损失。故选B项。(B)Thi
84、ngs you need to know about your STRESS right nowAfter 60 years of research, scientists have determined what provokes stress. Theres even a handy acronym: NUTS.N is for Novelty: This is something new youve not experienced before, like the first day of school or a new job.U is for Unpredictability: Wh

86、he situation, like being stuck in traffic.Its helpful to identify your sources of stress, because a problem well-defined is a problem almost solved. The opposite of stress is not relaxation-its resilience. If you tell your brain that you can deal with this, it will stop producing the stress hormone
87、and you will calm downGet on your bike!As various bits of research have shown, cycling will lower your stress levels, whether youre doing a quick errand or committing to a lifetime on two wheels.15 MINUTES LATERA 2013 study out of Japan showed a marked drop in peoples stress levels after they pedall

Hug your family! Find a volunteer companion!【答案】40. B 41. C 42. C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家对压力的研究。【40题详解】推理判断题。根据文章
94、第二段“N is for Novelty: This is something new youve not experienced before, like the first day of school or a new job.( N代表新鲜感:指的是你从未经历过的新鲜事物,比如开学第一天或开始一份新工作时)”和第五段“S is for Sense of Control: When you feel you have little or no control over the situation, like being stuck in traffic.( S是控制感:当你觉得自己几乎无法
95、控制局面时,比如被堵在路上)”可推断,B选择项汤姆第一天去上班却遇到堵车,所以他的压力是N+S这两方面的,因此承受的压力可能最大,而其他三人承担的都是单方面的压力,故选B。【41题详解】推理判断题。根据文章Get on your bike! 下的内容“A 2013 study out of Japan showed a marked drop in peoples stress levels after they pedalled for just 15 minutes on a stationary bike.(2013年日本的一项研究表明,人们在固定自行车上骑15分钟后,压力水平就显著下降
96、)”可知,骑自行车人的压力水平在15分钟后明显下降,而非1小时候明显下降。所以A图错误;根据“Researchers found in 2015 that, compared to their cycling colleagues, those who drove or took the subway breathed more shallowly an hour later-a sure sign of stress.( 2015年,研究人员发现,与骑自行车的同事相比,开车或乘地铁的人晚一个小时呼吸更浅,这是压力的明显迹象)”可知,如果晚点的话,乘地铁的人要比骑自行车的人的压力增加得多,所以
97、B图错误; 根据“After following 17,985 adult commuters for 18 years, U.K. researchers discovered in 2014 that those who walked or biked reported being happier, more confident and better able to face their problems.(在对17985名成年通勤者进行了18年的跟踪调查后,英国研究人员在2014年发现,走路或骑自行车的人更快乐,更自信,也更能面对自己的问题)”可推断,18年后,走路或骑自行车的人压力压力
98、更小,而开车的人压力增加。所以C图正确,D图错误。故选C。【42题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章倒数第二段“Some of them held their mothers hands during the test(有些人在考试时牵着妈妈手)”和“The girls who had contact with their moms were able to manage stress more effectively.( 与母亲有接触的女孩能够更有效地管理压力)”可知,本段介绍与家人亲密接触可以减轻压力,所以Hug your family! (拥抱你的家人吧!)适合放在处;根据文章最后一段“In a
99、 2007 UCLA study, some patients hospitalized for heart failure spent 12 minutes with a therapy dog, while another group interacted with a volunteer. The dog crowd experienced greater decreases in their anxiety level compared to those patients whose visitors could actually talk back.( 在2007年加州大学洛杉矶分校
100、的一项研究中,一些因心力衰竭住院的患者与治疗犬呆了12分钟,而另一组患者则与志愿者互动。与那些来访者能够顶嘴的患者相比,有狗陪伴的患者的焦虑水平下降的幅度更大)”可知,宠物的陪伴可以减轻患者的焦虑。所以Get furry companion!(毛茸茸的伴侣!) 适合放在处。故选C。(C)Bretton Woods revisitedOn July 22, 1944, as allied troops were racing across Normandy to liberate Paris, representatives of 44 nations meeting at the Mount
101、Washington resort in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, created a financial and monetary system for the postwar era, referred to as Bretton Woods system.John Maynard Keynes, leader of the British delegation, was playing a tricky dual role. He had proposed a new monetary system to free the world from the
102、Great Depression. He hoped that the new monetary system, would be the international pillar for the series of domestic measures that came to be known as Keynesianthe use of public spending to cure depression and the regulation of financial markets to prevent downturns caused by failed private financi
103、al investments. Keynes was also hoping to restore Britains prewar position as a leading industrial and financial power. His two roles overlapped, but far from perfectly The Americans shared the British desire to restore world growth, but not to preserve Britains empire.Keynes wrote to his colleague
104、after the conference that in the new International Monetary Fund, “we have in truth got both in substance and in phrasing all that we could reasonably hope for.” The new World Bank, Keynes declared, offered grand possibilities”. The Americans are virtually committing themselves to quite huge untied
105、loans for reconstruction and development.Yet in many respects, Bretton Woods was failure for Keynes and the British. America today is often described as the only surviving superpower, but in 1944 U.S. supremacy was towering. Germany and Japan were on the edge of ruin. Britain had gone massively into
106、 debt. The Russians had lost tens of millions of soldiers and civilians. America was unharmed, its casualties were modest by comparison, it held most of the worlds financial reserves, and its industrial plant was mightier than ever.Though Keynes inspired Bretton Woods, the Americans won the day. In
107、most matters, a rival design by Keyness American counterpart, Harry Dexter White, prevailed. White, a left-wing New Dealer serving as No. 2 man at the Department of Treasury, shared Keyness basic views on money. But the White plan provided a far more modest fund and bank. Instead of the generous ext
108、ension of wartime lend-lease aid that Keynes was promoting, the British had to settle for an American loan, to be repaid with interest.The Bretton Woods system was welcomed as a vast improvement over both the rigid gold standard of pre-1914 and the monetary disorder of the interwar period. For a qua
109、rter-century, Bretton Woods enhanced a rare period of steady growth, full employment, and financial stability. But in many respects, the boastful role of the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the Bretton Woods rules specifying fixed exchange rates was a convenient illusion. The system
110、s true pillar was the United States the U.S. dollar as global currency; the U.S. economy as the consumer market for other nations exports; and U.S. recovery aid in the form of the Marshall Plan, which dwarfed the function of the World Bank.In the early 1970s, the Bretton Woods system came crashing d
111、own when domestic inflation forced the United States to devalue its own currency and cease playing the dominant role. Monetary instability and slower growth followed.43.

112、 further explained the idea of monetary reform he presented.C. Keynes emphasized the importance of having a new World Bank.D. Keynes pointed out the important role America played in postwar era.44. According to the passage, Keynes and White had different views on_.A. the roles of US and Britain in p
113、ostwar era.B. the basic principles related to loans.C. the timing and target of giving fund.D. the interest rate British banks should offer.45. According to the passage, which of the following statement is TRUE?A. The Bretton Woods system improved the rigid gold standard of the interwar period.B. In
114、ternational Monetary Fund dominated the world market in many fields.C. The Bretton Woods system largely depended on the US economic success.D. Many countries received financial aid from the World Bank.46. The passage is mainly about _.A. the role of economy in the postwar era.B. two types of postwar
115、 diplomacy and their results.C. an individuals contribution to the postwar world.D. the development of a financial system and its impact.【答案】43. A 44. B 45. C 46. D【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了战后金融和货币体系Bretton Woods体系的起源和发展,以及这一体系对英国和美国的影响。【43题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中“The new World Bank, Keynes declared, offered g
116、rand possibilities”. The Americans are virtually committing themselves to quite huge untied loans for reconstruction and development. (Keynes宣称,新的世界银行提供了“巨大的可能性”。美国人实际上承诺为重建和发展提供大量的无条件贷款)”故我们可以从第三段划线的句子中推断出Keynes对会议的结果感到满意。故选A。【44题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“But the White plan provided a far more modest fund
117、and bank. Instead of the generous extension of wartime lend-lease aid that Keynes was promoting, the British had to settle for an American loan, to be repaid with interest.(但White计划提供的基金和银行规模要小得多。与Keynes所倡导的慷慨的延长战时借贷租赁援助相反,英国不得不接受美国的贷款,并支付利息)”可知,Keynes和White对有关贷款的基本原则有不同的看法。故选B。【45题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中
118、“The systems true pillar was the United States the U.S. dollar as global currency; the U.S. economy as the consumer market for other nations exports; and U.S. recovery aid in the form of the Marshall Plan, which dwarfed the function of the World Bank.( 这个体系真正的支柱是美国美元作为全球货币;美国经济作为其他国家出口产品的消费市场;美国以马歇尔
119、计划的形式提供复苏援助,这使世界银行的功能相形见绌)”可知,C选项“Bretton Woods体系很大程度上依赖于美国经济的成功”正确。故选C。【46题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“On July 22, 1944, as allied troops were racing across Normandy to liberate Paris, representatives of 44 nations meeting at the Mount Washington resort in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, created a financial and m
120、onetary system for the postwar era, referred to as Bretton Woods system.( 1944年7月22日,当盟军穿越诺曼底去解放巴黎时,来自44个国家的代表在新罕布什尔州Bretton Woods的华盛顿山度假村开会,创建了一个战后金融和货币体系,被称为Bretton Woods体系)”结合文章主要介绍了战后金融和货币体系Bretton Woods体系的起源和发展,以及这一体系对英国和美国的影响。可知,这篇文章主要是关于金融体系的发展及其影响。故选D。(D)The myth of short-term memoryShort-te

F【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了可能影响人们短时记忆的因素,并提出在没有脑部疾病的情况下,短时记忆很少受生理年龄的影响。【47题详解】上文“Short-term memory contains the contents of
128、 your thoughts right now, including what you intend to do in the next few seconds(短期记忆包含了你现在思想的内容,包括你接下来几秒钟要做什么。)”是对短时记忆的简单描述,下文“You may think about what youll say next in a conversation or walk to the hall closet with the intention of getting a pair of gloves.(你可能会在谈话中考虑接下来要说什么,或者走到门厅的壁橱里打算拿一副手套。)”
129、举例说明短时记忆是对接下来你要做的事情的一种规划,B项“Actually, it is doing some mental calculations.(实际上,它是在做一些心算。)”符合语境,下文是对选项的进一步解释,说明短时记忆和接下来要做的事情之间的关联,承上启下,符合语境。故选B项。【48题详解】下文“You do this by thinking about them, perhaps repeating them over and over again (Im going to the closet to get gloves)(你可以通过思考它们来做到这一点,也许一遍又一遍地重复它

131、期内容的能力在30岁以后每十年有所下降。)”,说明30岁之后年龄对短时记忆的影响,下文“Ive been teaching undergraduates for my entire career and can attest that even 20-year-olds make short-term memory errors-loads of them.(在我的整个职业生涯中,我一直在教本科生,我可以证明,即使是20多岁的人也会犯短期记忆错误而且是很多错误。)”说明和上文相反的内容,那就是30岁以下的人也会犯很多短时记忆的错误。因此空处应该是表示转折的过渡性语句,A项“But age is
132、 not the major factor so commonly assumed.(但年龄并不是人们普遍认为的主要因素。)”说明年龄不是限制短时记忆的主要因素,承上启下,符合语境。故选A项。【50题详解】下文“In the absence of brain disease, even the oldest older adults show little or no cognitive memory decline beyond the age 85 and 90.(在没有脑部疾病的情况下,即使是最高龄的老年人,在85岁和90岁之后也很少或根本没有认知记忆衰退。)”进一步说明认知记忆能力和生
133、理年龄的增加关系不大,F项“Instead, every lapse of short-term memory doesnt necessarily indicate a biological disorder.(相反,每一次短期记忆的缺失并不一定意味着一种生理紊乱。)”说明短时记忆的缺失并不总是和生理年龄的增加有关,引出下文,符合语境。故选F项。Section CDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.
