28、ds of entering a photo contest.D. to encourage parents with children to enter a photo contest.BLast year I lived in Chile for half a year as an exchange student with the American Field Service. Compared to most visitors, I didnt travel much. I lived with a Chilean family and had the responsibilities
29、 of any Chilean teenager. I went to school every day, in uniform. I had good days and bad days and days that I didnt understand.Chuquicamata, my host community, is a mining camp in the Atacama Desert. There is no disco, no shopping center, no museum or beach. Driveways must be watered daily to keep
30、the dust down.When I arrived here, I was scared. It was so different from the urban middle-class America I was accustomed to. There were lost dogs on the streets, and a constant cloud of brick-colored dust came from the mine. There was no downtown, few smoothly paved（用砖石铺的）streets, and little to do
31、for amusement. The people worked extremely hard. Rain was a rare phenomenon; earthquakes and windstorms were frequent. I had studied Spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class. But in my first week in Chile I was only able to communicate and needed one perso
32、n to whom I could explain my shock. I couldnt speak the thoughts in my head -and there were so many. Most exchange students experience this like me. Culture shock presents itself in everything from increased aggression towards the people to lack of appetite. I was required to overcome all difficulti
33、es.Being an exchange student is not easy. As time passed, everything changed. I began to forget words in English and to dream in Spanish and love Chilean food. I got used to not depending on expensive things for fun. Fun in Chuquicamata was being with people. And I took math, physics, chemistry, bio
34、logy, Spanish, art, and philosophy.But the sacrifices were nothing compared to the gain. I learned how to accept as well as to succeed in another culture. I now know the world is my community and have a much deeper understanding of both myself and others.41.The author went to Chile last year with th
35、e purpose of _.Apaying a visit to Chile as a touristBworking as a volunteer of the American Field ServiceCstudying Chilean culture as a college studentDexperiencing Chilean life as an exchange student42.On arriving in Chile, the author felt frightened because _.Ahe couldnt get used to working so har

37、leBfound one person to explain his shockCcouldnt express his thoughts in EnglishDcouldnt overcome his great depression44.According to the text, the author most probably thinks that his life in Chile was _.Awonderful but tiring Bhard but meaningfulCdifficult and terrible Dboring and disappointing45.W
38、hat can we learn from the passage?AMost Chileans are not friendly to foreigners.BThe author benefits greatly from the experience in Chile.CExchange students always fail to succeed in another culture.DThe official languages of Chile are Spanish and English.CFor grown-ups, an afternoon snooze(打盹) is o
39、ften easier said than done. But many of us have probably experienced just how simple it can be to catch some sleep in a gently rocking hammock(吊床). By examining brain waves in sleeping adults, researchers reported in the June 21 issue of Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, that they now have
40、evidence to explain why that is. “It is a common belief that rocking causes sleep: we fall asleep in a rocking chair soon and, since ancient times, we cradle our babies to sleep,” said Sophie Schwartz of the University of Geneva. “Yet, how this works had remained a mystery. The goal of our study was
41、 made up of two parts: to test whether rocking does indeed improve sleep, and to understand how this might work at the brain level.”Schwartz, Michel Mhlethaler, and their colleagues Laurence Bayer and Irina Constantinescu asked twelve adult volunteers to nap on a custom-made bed or “experimental ham
42、mock” that could either remain still or rock gently. All participants were good sleepers who didnt typically nap and did not suffer from excessive sleepiness during the day. Each participant took two 45-minute afternoon naps, one with the bed still and one with the bed in motion, while their brain a
43、ctivity was monitored.“We observed a faster transition to sleep in each and every subject in the swinging condition,” Mhlethaler said. “Surprisingly, we also observed a dramatic boosting of certain types of sleep-related brain waves.”More specifically, rocking increased the length of stage N2 sleep,
44、 a form of non-rapid eye movement sleep that normally occupies about half of a good nights sleep. The rocking bed also had a lasting effect on brain activity, increasing slow brain waves and bursts of activity known as sleep spindles(纺锤体). Schwartz and Mhlethaler say the next step is to find out whe
45、ther rocking can improve longer periods of sleep and to find out whether it may be useful for the treatment of sleep disorders, such as insomnia(失眠). 46. What does the June 21 issue of Current Biology tell us according to Paragraph 1?A. It is more difficult for grown-ups to fall asleep. B. People to
46、day like to sleep in a rocking hammock.C. Many people nowadays suffer from excessive sleepiness.D. There comes the evidence to explain why rocking benefits peoples sleep.47. What can we learn from Sophie Schwartzs words?A. Her team aimed to answer two questions.B. The study is going to benefit babie
47、s a lot.C. The study had been kept secret before finished. D. People used to believe rocking was bad for sleep.48. What finding was beyond the researchers expectation?A. The rocking seemed to improve participants sleep quality.B. All the participants fell asleep faster in the swinging condition.C. S
48、ome participants couldnt fall asleep in the swinging condition.D. Participants had a tendency to sleep excessively in the swinging bed.49. What do Schwartz and Mhlethaler expect to figure out in the next research?A. Whether swing can cause insomnia.B. Whether swing can extend sleep time.C. Whether s
49、wing can change brain waves.D. Whether swing can benefit memory consolidation.50. A suitable title for this passage would probably be _.A. Take a snooze. Easier said than done.B. Want a faster sleep?Change your sleeping habits.C. Need a nap?Find yourself a hammock.D. Suffer from sleep disorder? New
50、treatment found.DSo many of us hold on to little resentments that may have stemmed from an argument, a misunderstanding, or some other painful event. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to usbelieving this is the only way we can forgive or (重新点燃) a friendship or family relationship.An
51、acquaintance of mine whose health isnt very good，recently told me that she hasnt spoken to her son in almost three years. Why not I asked. She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldnt speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be
52、the one to reach out, she resisted initially and said, I cant do that. Hes the one who should apologize. She was literally（简直）willing to die before reaching out to her only son. After a little gentle encouragement, however, she did decide to be the first one to reach out. To her amazement, her son w
53、as grateful for her willingness to call and sincerely said sorry to her. As is usually the case when someone takes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins. Whenever we hold on to our anger we turn small thing into big thing in our minds. We start to believe that our positions are more important th
54、an our happiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is to let go, and reach out. Let other people be right. This doesnt mean that youre wrong. Everything will be fine. Youll experience the peace of letting go as well as the joy of letting oth
55、ers be right. Youll also notice that as you reach out and let others be right they will become less defensive and more loving toward you. They might even reach back. But if for some reason they dont thats okay too. You will have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to creat
56、e a more loving world and certainly youll be more peaceful yourself.51. What happened to the authors acquaintance after she called her son?A.she was literally willing to die B. She received her sons apologyC. She was encouraged by the authorD. She realized her mistakes52. What does the author want t
57、o explain by taking her acquaintance as an example? A. That a gentle encouragement will be helpful to solve the problemB. That it is beneficial for both sides to reach out firstC. That painful events should be forgotten D. That parents and children are easier to make peace53. We can infer from the t
58、hird paragraph that _A. Happiness matters more than preventing the embarrassment at reaching out firstB. to be peaceful is more important than to be right in any disagreementC. to avoid arguments and misunderstandings means seeking for happinessD. Hold on to the right position leads to resentments54
59、. According to the passage, you cam be more peaceful by_A. trying your best to complete your own work perfectlyB. helping others create their inner contentC. being active and forgetting unpleasantnessD. understanding the importance of being less defensive55. Which of the following is the main idea o
60、f the passage?A. When you take the chance first to say sorry, you will win.B. You wont feel angry if you dont turn “small thing” into”big thing”C. Letting others be right will definitely make them reach backD. Its good to be the first one to reach out to break little resentments第卷第三部分：写作：第一节：阅读表达（共5

By the 1980s, Wal-Mart had sales of over one billion dollars and over three hundred stores across North America.
66、Wal-Marts unique decentralized (分散的) distribution system, also Waltons idea, created the edge needed to further encourage growth in the 1980s during growing complaints that the “superstore” was stopping smaller and traditional stores from developing. By 1991, Wal-Mart was the largest US retailer wit
