15、ain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue (疲劳)To the amazement of these scientists，they discovered that blood passing through the brain，when it is active，shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer，we would find it full of fatigue toxins(毒素)and fatigue products.B
16、ut if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein，it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned，it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning.The brain is totally tireless.So what makes us tired?
17、Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional (情感的) attitudes.One of Englands most outstanding scientists，J.A.Hadfield，says，“The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin.In fact，fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr.Brill，a
18、famous American scientist，goes even further.He declares，“One hundred percent of the fatigue of a sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired？Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored，anger，anxiety，tenseness，worry，a feeling of no

30、 also linked to longterm memory loss and difficulties in sensing pain.Researchers at the National Institutes of Health examined 33 children and adults with a rare condition in which groups of genes have been deleted. Called WAGR syndrome，the genetic aberration (反常现象) is found in about 250 people in
31、the USA. Half of the people studied lacked one of two genes, for a brain chemical called brainderived neurotropic factor(BDNF). The ones missing the gene had low blood levels of the chemical. By age 10, all of those missing the gene were obese and reported a strong tendency to overeat. Those who had
32、 two working copies of the BDNF gene were no more likely to be obese in childhood or to report unusually high levels of overeating than the general population.Scientists suspected that people within the group had abnormalities with the gene, and they believed a larger segment (部分) of the population
33、had the same problem.The missing gene may explain why some people cant seem to control their eating or lose weight, says Jack Yanovski, head of the Unit on Growth and Obesity at NIHs Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.“We suspect that BDNF has important i

62、叫李华，听说在国外上学的表弟James吸烟成瘾，你很担忧。请给他写一封email，谈谈吸烟的危害并给出戒烟的建议。(可适当发挥，总词数120左右)Dear James, Since I heard you had got into the habit of smoking，_Yours，Li Hua 综合检测(三)1Bpessimistic悲观的；temporary临时的，暂时的；previous先前的，以往的；cautious小心谨慎的。句意：玛丽曾在这儿做临时秘书，但最终在这家公司得到了一份全职工作。根据题干意思可知正确答案为B项。2D句意：没有人能容忍他的粗鲁行为，所以他没有朋友。tol
63、erate“容忍，忍受”；accustom“习惯于”；understand“理解”；cover“覆盖”。3B句意：他一下班回来就发现家被盗了。房子是不可能被偷(steal)的，故排除C、D两项；house与rob之间是动宾关系，所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。4A由句中independent(独立的，不依赖别人的)可知，空格处想表达“拒绝”的意思。decline“委婉地拒绝”，符合句意。deny“否认”；refuse“坚决、果断或坦率地拒绝”；reject“以否定、敌对的态度而当面拒绝”，均与句意不符，故选A项。5A句意：在那种噪音下我无法做作业。going on与其逻辑主语all that no
64、ise之间为主动关系。因此用ing形式作宾补。6B句意：交通法规禁止人们在人行道上骑车。四个选项都可以与from搭配，stop sb.from doing，prevent sb.from doing和keep sb.from doing都是“阻止某人做某事”；prohibit“禁止”。7C句意：历史是最好的老师。它如实地记录每一个国家的发展轨迹，并向我们昭示未来。A：显而易见地；B：常规地，习惯地：C：如实地；D：终于。8C考查错综时间虚拟条件句。由todays life知主句指的是现在，more than 130 years ago说明从句说的是过去，所以使用hadnt invented表示
65、与过去事实相反。9Bwipe out意为“消除”。句意：仍然有许多人在遭受痛苦，我们应该做些事情来消除贫困。keep out“使在外”；give out“分发，发出(气味、热等)，发表”；run out“用光”。10Din truth“实际上”；in return“作为回报”；in particular“特别，尤其”；in vain“徒劳，白费力气”。后半句句意为：他的妻子试图说服他戒烟，但是白费力气，所以D项合适。11C从后面的不是事先挑选，可以知道是随意挑选。at random“随意地；随机地”。12C句意：父亲在附近的一家餐馆招待邻居以示感谢。treat sb.to sth.“用招待某人
66、”，符合语境要求。13A句意：很清楚，电视节目通常能满足各年龄段的人的口味。cater to“迎合，满足需要”，符合题意要求。14D考查情态动词。答语句意：是的，但是她本应该在家。她的小妹妹需要她照顾。ought to have done表示“本应该做某事，但却没有做”。15B句意：每天放学后我的惯例就是做作业，然后看电视直到10点半上床去睡觉。route“路线”；routine“常规，惯例”；practice“练习，做法”；drill“操练”。【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。全文讲述了作者通过参加一次小组活动来了解残疾人所面临的问题的经历。作者和其他人都暂时“接受残疾”，把自己“扮”成残疾人，
67、而作者选择了坐轮椅的方式。通过这次经历作者体验了残疾人每天在生活中所面临的种种挑战。16B结合空格前sensitivity的含义“感受，敏感”以及常识可推断，这个活动的目的是让人们对于残疾人在生活中所面临的问题有更多的了解。从本文结尾作者的感受中也可判断出应选择B项。17B下文中For disabled people，“adopting a wheelchair” is not a temporary(临时的).提到了adopt这个词，指的是让人们采用乘坐轮椅的方式了解残疾人，这是一种暗示；此处指的是被要求“接受残疾”几个小时以了解残疾人，因此选B。cure表示“治愈”；prevent表示“阻
68、止”；analyze表示“分析”。18D作者以自己作为例子，下文中也主要是以作者本人的体验来展开的，所以选like me“像我这样的”。19A根据下文的I had never considered before how _20_ it would be to use one.可知，作者从来没有考虑过怎样使用轮椅，所以这是一个学习的过程，故选learning。20B既然作者没使用过轮椅，同时结合下文也可看出作者使用起轮椅来比较笨拙，不知道该怎样弄才好，因此选B。21D结合前面的As soon as I sat down.以及后面的made the chair begin to roll的暗示和常
69、识可知，当作者坐下后，应该是作者的体重使得轮椅开始动起来。22A作者一坐下轮椅就开始动起来，表明这个轮子没有被锁住。23B联系下文It took me quite a while to get the metal footrest.中的footrest可知，这里指作者不知道该把脚放在哪里。24A联系上句的内容可知，作者费了半天劲，终于把footrest放到了恰当的位置，上文的where对此处的place也是一种提示。25C这里表示作者第一次不安地看了看将要在上面度过几个小时的唯一的交通工具(transportation)。26C联系本文最后一段的My wheelchair experiment
70、 was soon.可知，作者进行的只是一次坐轮椅的体验。此处表示：对那些终生在轮椅上的人们来说，却并非是一次临时性的体验。27D联系后面的thought it might be restful中的restful可知，作者经过一番周折想在轮椅上找一个比较舒适的位置来坐得放松些。28Drestful和nice是一种递进的关系，故选even，表示程度，意为“甚至”。29B联系下文的I would have to handle the thing myself！可知，作者原以为有人会推着自己的轮椅到处转转。30A联系前面的Looking around“环顾四周”，作者终于明白了I would hav
71、e to handle the thing myself，即作者明白了得自己来推动轮椅，而不是有人推着他。31B结合前面的My hands started to ache和后面的the heavy metal wheels可知，当作者转动轮子让轮椅移动的时候，因为费力，所以手都疼了。turn在这里表示“转动”。32C转动轮椅的轮子后，下一步就是把握轮椅的方向。33A对于一个“新人”来说，控制轮椅的方向不是一项容易的任务。34D前文已经提到了for several hours one Sunday，联系下文的It made a deep impression on me.可知，作者的这次体验很快
72、就结束了。35C几个小时的残疾体验，对于作者无论在生理上还是心理上都是一种挑战，而这种挑战是残疾人必须克服的，故答案为C项。【语篇解读】本文为说明文，属于科普类文章。研究发现，单纯的脑力劳动并不会令人感觉疲劳，而真正令人感觉疲劳的是心理和情感态度，如烦躁、气愤、焦虑、紧张、担心、不被欣赏等。这些情感都是令脑力劳动者感觉疲劳的因素。36C细节理解题。根据第一段中“To the amazement of these scientists，they.no fatigue at all！”可知，令这些科学家们惊讶的是，大脑活跃时流经大脑的血液并没有表现出疲劳，故C项正确。A项与“If we took
73、a drop of blood.and fatigue products.”意思表达相反，故排除；第一段最后一句指出在一天结束的时候，脑力劳动者的大脑血液中没有疲劳因素，这不是科学家们的惊讶之处，且与D项意思不一致，故排除B、D两项。37B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知，使脑力劳动者疲劳的主要原因是情感问题，最后一段指出了是哪些情感，故B项正确。38A推理判断题。本文主要介绍了科学家的研究成果，作者对此进行了进一步的分析、论证，对情感态度导致人疲劳的观点持肯定态度，并未对此进行质疑，故A项正确。39B推理判断题。根据最后两段的叙述可知，心理和情感态度是导致脑力劳动者疲劳的主要原因，因而
74、保持好的心理状态才会感觉精力充沛；B项意为“喜欢他们的工作，”符合文意，这就避免了导致疲劳的烦躁、气愤等情感。其余几项都与导致疲劳的因素无关，故排除。【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了青春期的男孩和女孩的声音发生变化的原因。40C主旨大意题。本文旨在说明青春期的男孩儿和女孩儿声音为什么发生变化，如何变化，以及如何看待这个现象。故选C项。41B推理判断题。根据第四段中的“which causes his larynx to grow and his vocal cords(声带)to get longer and thicker.”和第五段中的前两句可知，成年人的嗓音比小孩儿的低沉是因为成年人
75、的声带又长又厚。42C细节理解题。根据第六段的内容可知，older guys and men长有喉结(the Adams apple)。43A推理判断题。根据最后两段的内容可知，嗓音变化是青少年向成人过渡的生理发育的自然现象。44C细节判断题。根据第三段中的“lacked one of two genes，for a brain chemical called brainderived neurotropic factor(BDNF)”可知，这种化学物质存在于大脑中，故选C项。45B细节判断题。根据第一段第一句中的“Some obese children and adults who eat
76、excessively may be missing a gene for a brain chemical involved in controlling appetite”和第三段的二、三句可以看出一些人吃得过多是因为缺少一种基因，该基因控制是否在大脑中生成控制食欲的化合物。因此选B项。46A细节判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“so scientists can develop obesity drugs to treat people who dont make enough BDNF”可知，科学家们研究这种物质的目的是开发一些药物来解决人们的肥胖问题。故答案是A项。47A主旨大意题。本文主
77、要介绍了某种控制大脑生成化合物进而可以控制人们食欲的基因，研究表明它的缺失造成了人们对食欲无法控制，从而引发了肥胖问题。故答案是A项。【语篇解读】一提到圣诞节，人们很容易联想到雪花飘飘的冬天，但是位于南半球的澳大利亚的圣诞节正好在炎热的夏季。由于天气原因，那里的一些圣诞活动具有独特之处。48C细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知，澳大利亚位于南半球，所以圣诞节正好在炎热的夏季。49D细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知，在澳大利亚人的圣诞宴席上，南瓜没有一席之地。50A推理判断题。根据第二段的内容可以推断，澳大利亚人之所以能够在夜晚的烛光下演唱圣诞颂歌，是因为那里的气候很温暖，适合组织这类户外活动。5
78、1C标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了位于南半球的澳大利亚人庆祝圣诞节的一些情况，因此最佳标题为C项。52A根据文章第一段的Rather than read，the kid really preferred running.可推知答案。53B根据文章第三段首句After being denied entrance into a traditional filmmaking school可推知答案。54B由第三段的Silvers liked the kid who made 8mm films and invited him back sometime to visit.可知答案。55D本
