27、。consciously刻意地,有意识地。26由后文中的I felt like an outcast(被抛弃者) not just because Aspergers made it hard for me to make friends可知,埃斯博格综合征使得我很难和他人交朋友,我感觉自己就像被抛弃者一样孤独和孤立。lonely孤独的。27我感觉到自己就像被抛弃者一样,不仅仅是因为埃斯博格综合征使得我很难和他人交朋友,更是因为患病之后我被贴上了埃斯博格综合征这个标签。label 标签。28最后,当我16岁时,我对自己说,我受够了,我不能再逃避了,我必须面对这个疾病。eventually 最后

30、茧成蝶的故事。三、阅读理解：共20题It seems that the great desire among the young is to be popular. And once they achieve popularity, they want to keep it, improve on it, and expand it.Those are the years when you should be finding out who you are and what you stand for. But the desire to be popular can force you in
31、to looking and acting like everyone else. You can lose yourself in a sea of identical hairstyles and thinking styles.I was forced to think about popularity not too long ago in a talk I had with my daughter. Margy had to change schools when my busy work schedule made it necessary for me to move house
32、s. I suppose that, for a girl in her teens, entering a new school is about as easy as spending a season alone in the tropical jungles. At least thats how Margy found it at first. However, as the school year drew to a close, one student after another came to her. They said they would have liked to be
33、 friends sooner.I told Margy that I would have been more concerned if she had been an instant social success in her new school. That, to me, would have been proof that she had betrayed her true self in order to become popular. Nobody can please everyone. If you try to do so, you will find values as
34、lasting as soap bubbles blown into the air. The people with whom you ought to be friends will find you in good time. And you will find them. Sometimes young people try to force friendships into bloom by opening their innermost thoughts to people they have just met. Such friendships are the least lik
35、ely to last. Whats the hurry? If you have five really close friends in your lifetime, you will be doing very well.Some teenagers claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up listening to the same rec
36、ord. Their reason for thinking or acting in a certain way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon into a larger cocoon.I know that it has become harder and harder for a young person to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Our way of life makes
37、a young nonconformist stand out like a Martian. These days every member of the younger generation can learn from the advertisements what he or she should have and be. And many of the parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for t
38、he young person who wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be
39、yourself. Popularity will come with the people who respect you for who you are. Thats the only kind of popularity that really counts.41Why did the authors daughter change schools?A.She desired to live a different life.B.The author wanted her to receive a better education.C.The author needed to move

44、le of how to get along with their close friends.【答案】41C42D43D44C45A【解析】41由第三段中的Margy had to change schools when my busy work schedule made it necessary for me to move houses可知,作者由于工作繁忙,需要把家搬到离工作地点近一些的地方。因此,答案选C。42由第四段中的I would have been more concerned if she had been an instant social success in her
45、 new school. That, to me, would have been proof that she had betrayed her true self in order to become popular. Nobody can please everyone可知,作者认为如果他女儿在新学校已取得人际交往上的即刻成功的话,那么对作者来说,女儿肯定是违背了真实的自我以取悦他人,使自己变得受欢迎。因此,答案选D。43由第五段的内容可知,一些青少年想要随心所欲地穿衣搭配,但却和大多数人穿得一样;一些人在音乐方面想走不同的路,但最终却还是和大多数人听一样的歌;他们思考或做事的方式也总是
46、和大众差不多。由此推断,作者认为大多数青少年缺少与众不同的勇气。因此,答案选D。44由第六段中的I know that it has become harder and harder for a young person to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way可知,想要与众不同,走自己的路越来越难了。由此可推知画线词nonconformist指的应是不遵循常规的人。因此,答案选C。45由全文内容可知,作者从自己女儿换了新学校后迅速受到新同学欢迎的事实谈起,批判了那些为迎合他人而放弃自我的行为方式,
47、并就受欢迎表达了自己的观点:做真实的自己,别人也会尊重你的本真。因此,作者的写作目的在于劝诫读者追求有价值的名气,而不要去一味地迎合他人。因此答案选A。【备注】本文作者从自己女儿换了新学校后迅速受到新同学欢迎的事实谈起,批判了那些为迎合他人而放弃自我的行为方式,并就受欢迎表达了自己的观点:做真实的自己,别人也会尊重你的本真。Buses in SingaporeThe introduction of air conditioners into the buses means a comfortable ride for the passengers.

60、案选C。49由最后一段中的Different taxi companies impose different extra charges, so do check with the driver before you board the taxi可知,不同的出租车公司会收取不同的额外费用,因此乘客在上车之前最好先向司机确认一下收费情况,故答案选C。99.【备注】本文为应用文,介绍了新加坡的交通工具,如公交车、有轨电车、地铁、出租车等内容。Elderly people are growing healthier, happier and more independent, say America
61、n scientists. The results of a 14-year study to be announced later this month reveal that the diseases associated with old age are affecting fewer and fewer people and when they do suffer a stroke (中风), it is much later in their life.In the last 14 years, the National Long-term Care Survey has gathe
62、red data on the health and lifestyles of more than 20,000 men and women over 65. Researchers, now analyzing the results of data gathered in 1994, say arthritis, high blood pressure and circulation problems the major medical complaints in this age group are troubling a smaller proportion every year.
63、And the data confirms that the rate at which these diseases are declining continues to increase. Other diseases of old age dementia, strokes, arteriosclerosis and emphysema are also troubling fewer and fewer people.It really raises the question of what should be considered normal ageing, says Kennet
64、h Manton, a demographer (人口学家) from Duke University in North Carolina. He says the problems doctors accepted as normal in a 65-year-old in 1982 are often not appearing until people are 70 or 75.Clearly, certain diseases are beating a retreat in the face of medical advances. But there may be other co
65、ntributing factors. Improvements in childhood nutrition in the first quarter of the twentieth century, for example, gave todays elderly people a better start in life than their former generations.On the downside, an increase in some cancers and bronchitis may reflect changing smoking habits and poor
66、er air quality, say the researchers. These may be subtle influences, says Manton, but our subjects have been exposed to worse and worse pollution for over 60 years. Its not surprising we see some effect.One interesting correlation Manton uncovered is that better-educated people are likely to live lo
67、nger. For example, 65-year-old women with fewer than eight years of schooling are expected, on average, to live to 82. Those who continued their education live an extra seven years. Although some of this can be attributed to a higher income, Manton believes it is mainly because educated people seek
68、more medical attention.The survey also assessed how independent people over 65 were, and again found a striking trend. Almost 80% of those in the 1994 survey could complete everyday activities ranging from eating and dressing unaided to complex tasks such as cooking and managing their finances. That
69、 represents a significant drop in the number of disabled old people in the population. According to Manton, slowing the trend has saved the United States governments medicare system more than $200 billion, suggesting that the ageing of Americas population may prove less of a financial burden than ex
70、pected.But independence can have drawbacks. Scientists found that elderly people who felt emotionally isolated maintained higher levels of stress hormones even when asleep. The research suggests that older people live best when they feel independent but know they can get help when they need it.50Wha
71、t is the main topic of this passage?A.The common health problems of elderly people in the US.B.A healthier, happier and more independent ageing population in the US.C.The influence of medical advances on elderly peoples health in the US.D.The relationship between good education and the length of tim

76、82 are often not appearing until people are 70 or 75可知,1982年医生认为正常情况下65岁的老年人患的疾病,现如今通常在70岁或75岁才会出现。因此,科学家们开始对老龄化的标准有所质疑。52由第五段中的On the downside, an increase in some cancers and bronchitis may reflect changing smoking habits and poorer air quality可知,空气质量的恶化使得老年人的健康状况变得糟糕。因此,C项正确。53由第六段中的Manton believ
77、es it is mainly because educated people seek more medical attention可知,受过更好教育的人会更加在意自己的健康状况从而积极寻求医学治疗,这是他们得以长寿的主要原因。54由倒数第二段中的the ageing of Americas population may prove less of a financial burden than expected可知,现如今美国的老年人变得更加独立,给政府减轻了更多的经济负担。因此可以推断,那些没有生活自理能力的老年人曾是美国的一个经济负担。【备注】本文介绍了一项关于老年人的调查。调查显示,
78、近年来老年人的健康状况在不断改善。Oprah Winfrey has come a long way from her poor childhood home in a small Mississippi town. She was an unwanted child whose parents never married. She was brought up on her grandmothers farm. The possibility that she would become rich and famous was slim.Oprahs mother left her child

By the age of seven, she was too much for her grandmother to discipline.Then Oprah went to live with her mother, Vernita, who worked very hard as a housekeeper in Milwa
82、ukee. It was hard for her to work and take care of her bright, troublesome child. They lived in poverty in a small apartment. Oprah took out all her angry feelings on her mother. When Oprah was eight, Vernita sent her to live with her father and stepmother in Nashville, Tennessee.But she moved again
83、 a few months later when Vernita married a man with two children. Vernita wanted Oprah to be with her and her new family. Unfortunately, she felt she didnt belong with them. She believed she wasnt loved by anyone. Her angry and frustration grew stronger. She struck back by misbehaving and running aw
