9、t you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan. Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when theyre in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home
10、 doesnt have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness. Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food ap

16、tudy shows. Tests on 50 people showed that being overweight was linked to worse “episodic memory” or the ability to remember past experiences.The study in theQuarterly Journal of Experimental Psychologyargues that a less vivid memory of recent meals may lead to overeating. However, other aspects of
17、memory such as general knowledge show no signs.Tests on rats have previously shown that with burgeoning waistlines come poorer performances in memory tests, but the evidence in humans has been mixed.Fifty people with a Body Mass Index (BMI) ranging from 18 (healthy) to 51 (very obese) took part in a
18、 memory test a bit like doing a treasure hunt on your own. They had to “hide” objects at different times and on different scenes displayed on a computer screen. They were later asked to recall what they had hidden, when and where. The results showed obese peoples scores were 15% lower than thinner p
19、eople.Dr. Lucy Cheke, from the University of Cambridge, told the BBC News website, “The suggestion were making is that a higher BMI is having some reduction on the vividness of memory, but theyre not drawing blanks and having amnesia(失忆症). As a matter of fact, if they have a less strong memory of a
20、recent meal, with a less strong impact in the mind, then they may have less ability to regulate how much they eat later on.” Hunger hormones(激素) play a huge role in how much we eat, but it has already been recognized that our minds have a key role too. Dr. Cheke concluded, “It is too early to talk i

Only recently have they come to think of it as something to look through. Stores display their goods in
25、 large glass windows. Glass bottles and jars that hold food and drink allow us to see the contents. Glass is used to make eyeglasses, microscopes, telescopes, and many other extremely useful and necessary objects. Until the Second World War, most of the glass used for optical instruments was importe
26、d from Europe. However, during the war Americans could not get European glass, and they were forced to make their own. As a result, new kinds of glasses were developed that had been previously unknown. These new effects were achieved by mixing other chemical elements with the sand. Some of these new
27、 glasses are very strong and can resist many kinds of shocks. Legend has it that a very hard glass was invented by a Roman who showed his discovery to the Emperor. When the Emperor saw the glass he feared that it would become more valuable than gold and silver, making his treasure worthless. Therefo
28、re, he had the glassmaker killed, and the secret was not discovered again for hundreds of years. In the present century, safety glass was invented for use in modern cars and planes. Safety glass is made by placing a layer of plastic between two layers of plate glass. When the outside layer of glass
29、is broken, the pieces do not scatter(散开) and injure people. Some glass of the type is strong enough to resist bullets. Although in recent years plastics have replaced glass under conditions where glass might be easily broken, there are new uses being developed, for the greatest advantage of glass is
30、 that its component parts are inexpensive and can be found all over the world.32. With the passage of time, glass _.

57、es come poorer performances in memory tests”意为“记忆测试中较差的表现伴随着腰围的日益增长”，故选D。29. A。根据第五段中“Fifty people with a Body Mass Index (BMI) ranging from 18 (healthy) to 51 (very obese) took part in a memory test”和第五段最后一句点明结果“The results showed obese peoples scores were 15% lower than thinner people.”可知，A选项“comp
58、are the performances of people with various BMIs（对比具有不同体重指数的人的表现）”正确。根据第五段“They had to hide objects”和“recall what they had hidden”可知，B选项 “hidden by the researchers”与原文不符，故排除选项B ；根据第三段“other aspects of memory such as general knowledge show no signs（没有迹象）”可知，C选项 “All aspects of memory will be influenc
59、ed by obesity”与原文不符，故排除选项C ；根据第四段可知，原文未提及被测试的rats的数量，故排除D。30. C。推理判断题。根据第六段“a higher BMI is having some reduction（降低） on the vividness of memory”可推知，C选项“having a higher BIM has a negative influence（负面影响/消极影响） on memory to some extent”正确，故选C。选项A中的“its high time that they provided suggestions on deali
60、ng with obesity（他们是时候为解决肥胖问题提出建议了）”与原文最后一段“too early to talk in terms of advice”不符，故排除A。选项B中的“its our minds rather than（而不是）hunger hormones that play an important role”与原文第六段最后一句“Hunger hormones(激素) play a huge role, but it has already been recognized that our minds have a key role too.”不符，故排除B。选项D中

B。推理判断题。此题推断文章出处，由全文内容以及文中出现的“study”，“result”，“test”和“conclude”可知，本文是研究人员通过实验测试来得出结论，故选B“A science report（科学报道）”。A选项“An entertainment magazine”意为“娱乐杂志”， C选项“An advertisement”意为“广告”，D选项“Scienc
62、e fiction”意为“科幻小说”，均不符合文意，故排除A，C，D。阅读理解D篇 32-35 BACC32. B 推理判断题。本题考查倒装句的理解。从文章第2句的开头only recently可知第l句和第2句是对比关系：现在的情况与以前不一样了，因此B为正确选项?选项A是对原文第2句话的曲解，虽然这句话中说到的玻璃现在被视为something to look through，但是，这句话要强调的并不是到现在人们才发现玻璃是透明的，而是要强调玻璃可以被用作工具，透过它去看别的东西。选项C中的look pleasant和选项D在文中都没有提到。 33A 推理判断题。从第2段的第1、2句可以看出
63、，二战前美国从欧洲进口玻璃，而战时却不能从欧洲进口玻璃，也就是说，进口玻璃的渠道应是被战争中断了，因此答案应为选项A。选项D是不能进口玻璃的结果，而不是原因。其余两项都没有原文依据。 34 C 推理判断题。本题考查例子与主题的关系。作者引用传说，只是为了使文章读起来更有趣。这是一个传说，不一定是真实的，因此，它不能被视为选项D所提及的历史事件，也不能证明是罗马人第一个发明坚固的玻璃，所以选项A也是不对的。选项B与本段内容无关，本段主要说明了美国人开发出新的玻璃制品的来由，并无说明美国人聪明之意。 4D推理判断题。本题考查列举处，用排除法可以找出答案。第3段中除选项D外，选项A可从第l句推断，选
64、项B可从最后一句推断，选项C可从第2句推断。 35 C 推理判断题。本题解题的关键在于注意最后一段中的“there are new uses being developed，for”，这里表明了一对因果关系，for后面引出不断研发玻璃新用途的原因，由此可见，本题正确选项应为C。选项A和B中提到的玻璃的缺点虽在现实中也是有可能的，但文中并无字句说明因为这些缺点而要不断研发玻璃的新用途。第二部分 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）这是一篇趣味性记叙文。作者通过一件小事描写了祖母和祖父的两个截然不同的处理方法。表现出祖母脾气蛮横，祖父性格温
65、和。人物性格鲜明突出。41.B 前文说她邀请了一些亲戚朋友到公寓里聚会。此处表示：在这些客人中。42.D 由a neighborhood big shot可知：是做生意发了财的大款。43.A 因家里有钱以及下文的and very much used to getting her own way可知：他们的小女儿被宠得非常娇气，脾气很蛮横。spoil宠坏，溺爱。44.A 晚会进行中，我走进了洗手间并随手把门关上。make ones way to向走去。Find ones way 找到去的路；push ones way 挤出的路；wind ones way 蜿蜒前进。45B 由and grandl
66、y walked in得知：那个小女孩推开洗手间的门。46C be supposed to do sth. 理应做；应该做。句意为：“难道你不知道当一个男孩在使用洗手间的时候女孩子是不可以进来的吗！？47D 由上文得知：男孩很生气。48A 听到我生气的吼声，她一下子惊呆了，然后她边哭边向她的父母和我的祖母告状。49B 当我从洗手间出来，祖母劈头盖脸地把我骂了一通。50C 等她骂完叫我滚开之后，晚会继续进行。dismiss使退去，退下，解散。51D 当祖母从洗手间走过的时候，她发现有股水流从门缝里涌出来。52A 她猛力地撞开洗手间的门，发现洗手盆和浴缸都被塞子塞住了。 53B 水龙头被拧到最大，
67、水正哗啦啦地直流。54C 每个人都知道是谁搞的鬼，愤怒的祖母使劲地挥舞着双手要打我，客人们马上在我周围形成了一堵人墙保护我。productive多产的；protective 保护性的。55A 此处是sothat 句型，表示“如此愤怒，（尽管有人墙保护）差点打了我”。56B 祖父牵着我的手来到窗前。表示牵着/抓着某人的手或其它部位的句型为：主语+ take / catch / hold / get etC+sB+ 介词by +the +身体某部位。此处的the 不能用his, her, my代替。by surprise，with anxiety与句子意义不符。57D 此处进一步讲述祖父是个什么样
68、的人。由上文He was a kind and gentle man, full of wisdom and patience可知：他很少提高嗓门和别人说话。从句子结构上分析，此处是倒装形式，只有否定意义的副词位于句首才能倒装。58A 由上文kind and gentle man可知：他也从来没有和祖母吵架。59C 由下文意义可知祖父的反映是：没有半点生气或烦恼的样子。60B 此处表示“祖母她先无缘无故地骂了我一顿”，这回小男孩故意捣乱之后让她骂就有理由了。第二节 语法填空61. that 62. unhappiness 63. it 64. a 65. worse 66. had writt
