22、ed chevrons(人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.

23、ill paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as on fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the Foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the Founda
24、tion will conduct its tests in areas where speedrelated hazards(危险)are the greatestcurves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can at first cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full

29、e applicable only on broad roads.CThey cannot be applied successfully to traffic rules.DThey tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.答案：D细节题。文章倒数第二段最后一句话“.within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar.”可知。DAfter moving to the United States, immigrant groups trying to
30、 fit in tend to choose high calorie fatty foods in an attempt to appear more American, a new study finds. Thats one reason why immigrants approach US levels of obesity within 15 years of moving to America. The researchers also did an experiment that measured whether or not the threat of appearing un
31、American influenced respondents food choices. After being questioned about their ability to speak English,75 percent of AsianAmericans identified a typical American food as their favorite. Only 25 percent of AsianAmericans who had not been asked if they spoke English did the same. When their America
32、n identity was called into question during a followup study, AsianAmerican participants also tended to choose typical American dishes, such as hamburgers and cheese sandwiches. In that experiment, 55 AsianAmericans were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant. Some participa
33、nts were told that only Americans could participate in the study. Those who chose the more typical American fare ended up consuming an extra 182 calories，including 12 grams of fat and 7 grams of saturated fat(饱和脂肪). “People who feel like they need to prove they belong to a culture will change their
34、habits in an attempt to fit in，”said Sauna Cheryan, an author of the study and assistant professor of psychology at the University of Washington. “If immigrants and their children choose unhealthy American foods over healthier traditional foods across their lives, this process of fitting in could le
35、ad to poorer health.” Cheryan added. Social pressures, the study concluded, are at the heart of the problem. “In American society today, being American is associated with being white. Americans, who dont fit this image even if they were born here and speak English, feel that pressure to prove that t
36、heyre American，” said Cheryan.语篇解读：移居美国是不少人的梦想，许多移民不惜以健康为代价千方百计地融入美国社会。33The author wants to show that _.Amore and more Asians enjoy highcalorie snacksBimmigrants tend to eat American junk food to fit inCmost Americans are at the risk of heart diseaseDall the American people have a bad eating habit答
37、案：B主旨大意题。本文是一篇研究报道，第一段是文章的中心段，根据本段第一句中的内容可知作者意在表明移民倾向于食用高能量食物以便融入美国社会。34According to the survey, _.AAsianAmericans care less about their healthB25 percent of Americans like junk foodCchoosing food is related to AsianAmericans situationDimmigrants are forced to eat junk food答案：C推理判断题。从第二段可知，75%的被询问过英
38、语能力的亚裔美国人将一种典型的美国食物看作他们的最爱，而只有25%的没有被询问是否说英语的亚裔美国人这样做，由此可推断选择食物与亚裔美国人的处境有关。35The underlined word “fare” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “_”Afood offered as a mealBa person taking a taxiCmoney spent on foodDan arranged thing to do答案：A词义猜测题。结合上文中的“In that experiment, 55 AsianAmericans were asked to
39、 choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant.”以及画线词后面的内容可推知画线词表示的是提供的食物。第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从对话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。Parents and doctors have the same worry over especially low birthweight newborns. _36_A trend has therefore developed to make special formulas(配方)of extr

41、fullterm newborns, each of whom weighed very little for their age. The babies moms had decided not to breastfeed(用母乳喂养)_37_The rest received a formula with more nutrients and 28 percent more protein than the standard formula. The growth of all of these children was compared to that of 175 similarly
42、low birthweight babies whose mothers had chosen to breastfeed their children for their first 9 months. _38_They found 83 babies from the normalformula group,70 babies from the extraformula group, and 95 babies from the breast fed group. _39_According to the latest data, children who had received the
43、 extra formula had significantly higher blood pressures than those in the other two groups.Seven human test have indeed shown that when infants are overfed before being stopped breastfeeding, they have an increased possibility to become fat as youngsters.No matter how big a child is at birth, he or

But reaching ones adult size at a slowtomoderate speed may have a lot of benefits, as Singhal says. _40_AHalf of these children were given a normal infant(幼儿) formula for 9 monthsBWhen they grow up, they might have h

68、t由后文可知，此处是房租。5forcharge sb. some money for sth.“因为某事而向某人要多少钱”。6sounds用一般现在时，主语为单数，故用单数第三人称。7expecting此处是进行时态。8If前后为条件关系。9inin advance“提前”。10it/the rent此处用it指代the rent。第四部分写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分)假如英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌的以下作文。文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号()，并在此符

73、。因此政府应限制私家车的数量，同时大力改善公共交通，并鼓励人们骑自行车或乘坐公共汽车。_参考范文：With the development of the society and the improvement of the conditions of peoples lives, more and more people have their own cars, which can save lots of time and bring a lot of convenience. However, the increase in the number of private cars has a
74、lso caused some problems.First, it makes traffic heavier and heavier. There are more and more traffic jams than before, especially during the rush hours. Second, as more and more people drive cars, many more parking lots have to be built. In additions, there are more traffic accidents, in which a lo
75、t of people have lost their lives. Whats worse, it has caused pollution and energy problems. Air pollution and noise pollution is increasing with more and more people driving cars.Therefore, I think the government should take some measures to limit the number of private cars. Meanwhile, it should do something about the conditions of buses and encourage people to take buses or ride bicycles.
