32、ife on hold to care for her. Each morning, I got her up and dressed her and made her breakfast and sat with her. I rushed for a bowl when she felt sick, and lit fires to keep her warm. I cooked and persuaded her to take a few bites. Its a hard job caring for a sick or dying parent, whoever you are.
33、But it was especially hard for me, I feel, because I am a doctor myself. I couldnt help looking at her in two different ways. The medical professional saw a body and scrutinized it with the coldness that medicine requires. But the daughter saw the woman who had given birth to me, wiped my nose, sent
34、 me off to college and had been a constant presence in my life for over half a century. Also, my mother didnt appreciate how hard it was for me to care for her. I remember an exchange between her and the nurse who came to see her once a week: “You could get some more help with care.” “Oh, I dont thi
35、nk I need that,” Mom said. Mom didnt understand that the help would have taken some of the burden off me. None of the treatments her doctors gave her worked, and finally her life became about comfort. She refused painkillers (止痛药) for a long time, but finally the pain convinced her. And when she acc
36、epted the painkillers she accepted the fact that she would die. Illness and needs took us across personal boundaries Id never before considered. And yet, while living and being and dying with Mom I witnessed something precious dawning. We became closer. We shared so many stories from our past that i
37、t was as if our memories had become one. In the past our relationship had been difficult. We had often argued. But when the end came, both of us simply accepted that we looked at the world in different ways. We were daughter and mother and we loved each other. That was all that mattered.42. Why was
38、taking care of her mom especially hard for the author?A. She was too busy living her own life.B. She and her mom had a difficult relationship. C. She was too old to attend to her mom carefully.D.

Depressed.45. What did the author learn from the experience of looking after her sick mother?A. Love is more i

CLosing an arm means losing the ability to grab, as well as losing the sense of touch. Scientists have been w
41、orking on mind-controlled prostheses (义肢) and have successfully built a few to help patients regain their ability to grab. But restoring the sense of touch has been quite a challenge until now. Seven years ago, a group of Swedish scientists created a new type of prostheses, which has since then been
42、 tried out on three patients to see how they perform in peoples daily lives. The study result was recently published in the New England Journal of Medicine. According to the study, this is the first time that people who have had an arm amputated (截肢) can experience sensations of touch in mind-contro
43、lled arm prostheses. The new product is named “neuromusculoskeletal” prosthesis. As the name indicates, the prosthesis is connected directly to a users nerves, muscles and skeleton. The sensation of touch becomes possible by stimulating nerves that used to be connected to the biological hand before
44、the amputation. When a patient grabs an object, for example, force sensors planted in the prosthetic thumb would measure contact and pressure. The collected information would then be transmitted to the patients nerves that lead to the brain. In this way, the patient can “feel” the characteristics of
45、 the object being touched and perceive (感知) its pressure against the prosthetic hand, which can be crucial when handling delicate objects an egg, for example.“The ability of the patients to discern (觉察) smaller changes in the intensity of sensations has improved,” Max Ortiz Catalan, Associate Profes
46、sor at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, who is the leader of the study, told Science Daily. According to Catalan, the new study has demonstrated that their prosthesis is qualified as a “clinically viable replacement for a lost arm”. “The sensors are not the obstacle for restoring sensation
47、,” Catalan added. “The challenge is creating neural interfaces (接口) that can seamlessly (无缝地) transmit large amounts of artificially collected information to the nervous system, in a way that the user can experience sensations naturally and effortlessly.” And they did it. With the development of pro
48、sthesis technology, people who suffer from limb loss will have a greater chance of getting their normal lives back.46. Neuromusculoskeletal prosthesis unique advantage is helping people with arm amputationsto _ .A. carry heavy objects againB. regain the ability to grab objectsC. move their prosthese
49、s as they wishD. experience the sense of touch again 47. The new prosthesis is connected directly to _. users nerves users brains users muscles users skeleton A. B. C. D. 48. How do the new prostheses work?A. They collect information about objects and process it. B.They stimulate the cut nerves to r
50、estore the sense of touch.C. They measure the size of objects and send the information.D. They detect the material of objects and send the information. 49. What can patients perceive with the new prosthesis?A. The intensity ofan object. B. The structure of an object.C. The pressure from an object.D.
51、 The changes inside an object.50. What is the difficulty in developing the new technology?A. Measuring the pressure of objects.B. Connecting the sensors to nerves.C. Creating good neural interfaces.D. Building responsive sensors. 51. Whats the authors attitude towards the prospect of prosthesis tech
52、nology? A. Optimistic. B. Neutral. C. Critical. D. Unconcerned.DWhen Benjamin Cherkasky was in eighth grade, he quit the swim team. It wasnt because he lacked the passion; he just couldnt accept failures in matches. “Im not Michael Phelps, why am I even on the team?” he said. A US therapist (治疗专家) w
53、horesearches perfectionism at Northwestern University realized years later what had happened. Cherkaskysperfectionism was creating unrealistic standards. Unable to meet them, he quit. “My perfectionism prompted (导致) very high expectations, and that caused real suffering,” he said. Cherkasky is not a
54、lone in feeling that perfectionism can breed anxiety. So many millennials (千禧一代) suffer from the ills of perfectionism that psychologists are issuing warnings and schools are emphasizing the need to accept failure. Northwestern had held several seminars that offered tips on how students could deal w
55、ith a perfectionism problem. Jessica Rohlfing Pryor, a psychologist leading the events, said every generation is a sponge (海绵) for the messages it receives. “Millennials, more than any other generation in American society, are receiving clear messages around achieving,” she said. “Theres an absence
56、of messaging that trying your hardest is still OK.” The American Psychological Association also found out that recent generations of college students have reported higher levels of perfectionism than earlier generations. This “desire to achieve along with being overly critical of oneself and others”
57、 affects young peoples mental health, according to its research, which analyzed data from over 40,000 college students. Researchers noted that social media adds comparative pressure, along with the drive to earn money and achieve career goals. Perfectionists often create even higher goals, which can
58、 lead to a higher risk of failure. In college, Cherkasky found himself surrounded by so many intelligent people that he felt he should have been achieving a higher level than he was. “It makes you feel kind of crazy,” he said. This type of thinking can lead people to putting in less effort, which, a
59、s they fall behind, can create more anxiety. “It makes people feel kind of isolated.” Cherkasky added, “And that can cause students to drift away from their school”. Northwestern is not the only school eager to help students. Brown University includes perfectionism in its counseling (咨询) services, a
60、sking students if they ever feel that what they accomplish isnt good enough.52. Why did Cherkasky quit the swim team in eighth grade?A. He wanted more time to study. B.He found he had no passion for swimming.C. He couldnt reach the goal he set for himself.D. He always did badly in swimming competiti
61、ons.53. Which of the following would Pryor probably agree with?A. Millennials are unwilling to work hard. B.Young people should accept being imperfect.C. Young people should learn to deal with pressure.D. Perfectionism can benefit individuals and society.54. What did the American Psychological Assoc
62、iation discover?A. Social media users were more likely to be perfectionists. B. Perfectionism could have a negative impact on physical health.C. Few universities offered help to students with mental problems.D.College millennial students suffer more perfectionism problems than ever.55. The author de
63、scribes Cherkaskys experience in college mainly to show _.A. the harm of being a perfectionistB. the effect of isolation on perfectionistsC.the pressure college students experienceD. the challenges underachievers have to overcome 第卷注意事项：1. 用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。2. 本卷共6小题，共35分。第三部分：写作第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小

But once in a while, a present arrives at an unexpected moment to remind us that someone is thinking about us. Wanda Anderson of Richland, US, re
65、members such a gift. The rosebushes were finally in full bloom on that day in spring. Seeing roses always brings to mind Wandas childhood memories. To this young girl, those flowers were extra special. “We never had money to buy extra things, so even a tired rose was something to cherish,” Wanda sai
66、d. Nowadays, to have a garden filled with many different roses is pure enjoyment. Wanda especially loves the very first blooms. Her husband, Dale, devotedly takes care of the roses and knows this little fact about his wife. So, on this special morning, he picked the very first flowers of spring, fre
67、sh from the garden. But as Dale came back into the house, he was met by a neighbor who had stopped in for a quick visit. As the woman turned to go, Dale handed the roses to her. And even though their visitor insisted she didnt want to take them, she was repeatedly told that the flowers were hers to
68、keep. “I told her I was happy for her to have the roses, but I really wasnt,” Wanda said, remembering the emotions she was feeling right then. Seeing her very precious first blooms go out the door filled her with regret, and a bit of selfishness. Throughout the rest of the morning, Wanda argued with
69、 herself, knowing it was “better to give than to receive.” Nevertheless, she wished she could have kept the roses for herself. Later that day, the couple headed to the post office, where Wanda waited outside in the car. Then, without warning, an older woman suddenly appeared at the cars open window,
70、 with a bunch of roses in her arms. “These are for you,” she said, giving the flowers to Wanda. “Theyre my first blooms this spring.” Totally surprised, Wanda thanked the woman and took a moment to smell the roses rich fragrance. When she looked up, the mysterious visitor was gone. To this day, that
71、 “special delivery” changed Wanda. Now, her very first blooms always go to someone else, as a reminder that someone is thinking of them.56. Why does Wanda love roses so much? (no more than 15 words) 57. What does the underlined word “devotedly” mean in Paragraph 6? (no more than 5 words) 58. How did
72、 Wanda feel after the neighbor left? (no more than 10 words) 59. What changed Wandas opinion of giving gifts? (no more than 10 words) 60.

76、mong the three columns “Career Planning”, “Our Students” and “Campus Culture”, I would like to choose “Career Planning” to be the one to be added, based on the original two columns “School Profile” and “Study Life”. I know that right now a large number of students still have absolutely no idea about
77、 what they truly want to become in the future, so its quite urgent and necessary to give students basic understanding of what different kinds of jobs are like and what kinds of qualities are required for different jobs. This may help us gain a better understanding of our strengths and weakness so that we can figure out our goals. To me, its much more meaningful than “Our Students” or “Campus Culture”. I would be most grateful if you would like to consider my recommendation. Im looking forward to your reply. Yours, Li Jin
