Lykken,
108、 have found that about 50% of a persons happiness depends on ones genes. This finding is based on studying identical twins, whose happiness is 50% correlated even when growing up in different houses. About 10% to 15% is a result of various measurable life circumstance variables (变量), such as status,
109、 health, income, sex and others. The remaining 40% is a combination of unknown factors and the results of actions that individuals engage in to become happier. These actions may differ between people. For example, being outgoing may benefit a person by placing himself in situations involving large a
110、mounts of human interaction. Also, exercise has been shown to increase a persons level of happiness. Even simple exercise, such as running, is regarded as a key factor in making a person happy.Human relationships are found to be the most important correlation with human happiness. A widely publicize
111、d study in 2008 published in the British Medical Journal reported that happiness in social networks may spread from person to person. Researchers followed nearly 5,000 individuals for 20 years in the longstanding Framingham Heart Study and found that clusters (群) of happiness and unhappiness spread
112、up to 3 degrees of separation on average. Happiness tended to spread through close relationships like friends, relatives, and nextdoor neighbors. And the researchers reported that happiness spread more quickly than unhappiness through the network. Moreover, the structure of the social network appear
113、ed to have an effect on happiness, as people who were very central (with many friends and friends of friends) were more likely to be happy. Overall, the results suggest that happiness might spread through a population like a virus.Research in the US has found that older Americans are generally happi
114、er than younger adults. The effect does not appear to be generational, because it has been found that happiness increased over time for the older people who were studied. While older individuals reported more health problems, they reported fewer problems overall. Young adults reported more anger, an
115、xiety, depression, financial problems, troubled relationships and career stress than any other age group.语篇解读:本文介绍了一些科学家研究发现的与幸福有关的调查结果。21It can be concluded from the first paragraph that _.Agenes play the smallest role in ones happinessBthe more people earn the happier they areChappiness depends on
116、 three main sorts of factorsDsimple exercise can only lead to shortterm happiness解析:选C推理判断题。根据第一段可知幸福有50%来自基因,10%15%来自生活环境的各种变量,40%来自某些不确定因素和人的自身行为,由此可以总结出,幸福主要取决于三方面因素。22Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?AA good social relationship has a positive effect on happiness
117、.BSometimes happiness may hurt people like a virus.COlder Americans are happier because they have fewer health problems.DHappiness spreads from generation to generation.解析:选A细节理解题。根据第二段的“. the structure of the social network appeared to have an effect on happiness .”可知应选A。23Which of the following gr

A major rescue operation was performed on Sunday following two strikes which hit the Brecon Beacons, South Wales. Two men died, while two others were taken to hospital.A police spokeswoman sa
121、id, “A man in a serious condition in hospital, following simultaneous (同时发生的) incidents in the Brecon Beacons, has now improved and he is recovering. Officers are continuing to get in touch with the next of relatives of the dead men and enquiries are ongoing. All men were believed to be from England
122、.”Mark Jones, of the Brecon Mountain Rescue Team, described the lightning strike as a freak accident, and something he had not been called out to in 30 years of service.The walking group Ramblers Cymru said that while incidents involving thunder and lightning were rare, electrical storms should be t
123、aken seriously by walkers.The organisations delivery officer, Elly Hannigan Popp, said, “Wed advise everyone to check the weather forecast before starting a walk. If you hear thunder, see lightning or if your hair stands on end, postpone activities even if the sky looks blue and clear. Lightning wil
124、l strike as far as 10 miles away from any rainfall. Lightning can strike the same place repeatedly especially tall, pointed, isolated objects.”“If there is no shelter you should keep moving. And if you become the tallest object, crouch (蹲) in the open twice as far away from the nearest pointed objec

127、e from England.”可知,这四个人很可能来自同一个国家。26Why did the author quote the police spokeswoman in Paragraph 2?ABecause the accident is very serious.BTo announce where the victims come from.CBecause the police are looking into the accident.DTo tell the readers some facts of the incident.解析:选D推理判断题。作者在第二段中提到警方发言
128、人并引用她的话,为的是告诉读者与事件相关的一些事实。27Whats the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3?AUnusual.BRegular.CUnimportant. DFrightening.解析:选A词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“something he had not been called out to in 30 years of service”可知,在南威尔士的Brecon Beacons,闪电击中人的事件不常见。28What do the last two paragraphs tell us?AHarm do
129、ne by lightning.BWarnings from a delivery officer.CFirst aid in a lightning incident.DSafety tips on a lightning strike.解析:选D段落大意题。通读最后两段的内容并根据其中的关键词“advise”可知,最后两段主要讲述的是在雷电天气中的一些安全措施。CThink about what you had for lunch: Was it a hamburger? A chicken sandwich? Barbecue? What about vegetables? Would
130、it surprise you to learn that what you eat can affect the whole planet? It can in a big way. New studies show how food and its production affect the globe and its warming climate. Youve probably heard of global warming: The temperature is on the rise because humankind has been releasing plenty of ga
131、ses into the atmosphere. One of these greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide. What does this have to do with food? A big part of the carbon dioxide that we put in the atmosphere every year comes from the process of making and eating food. The production of meat produces a lot of that carbon dioxide. And
132、 much of meats contribution comes from beef, which is responsible for releasing even more warming gases into the atmosphere. The process of making a hamburger, for example, requires a lot of energy. A cow has to be fed and raised on farmland, and cow waste is a major source of methane an especially
133、powerful greenhouse gas. Thecow has to be killed. The meat has to be processed andshipped to a shop, which takes fuel. Most of the cow wont even be used for meat that people eat. By the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate, it has had a heavy effect on the environment. We can reduce the
134、production of globalwarming gases by eating less beef. Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do less harm to the environment at least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released. All kinds of meat are harder on the planet than vegetables. To grow and eat a pound of potatoes, for example,
135、 sends less than onequarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air. So changing our diet to less meat and more vegetables, as it turns out, may do the world some good.29The questions in the first paragraph are used to _.Ashow the authors concern about food safetyBexpress the authors puzzlement at what
136、 to eatCremind readers of something delicious to eatDintroduce the topic to be discussed in the passage解析:选D推理判断题。作者在开头提出一系列问题是为了引入本文的话题:我们的饮食对气候变暖有一定影响。30In the authors opinion, which of the following should be a great concern for meateaters?AThe process of producing meat can cause global warming.B
137、Most cows are raised in poor conditions.CThere is a lot of carbon dioxide in meat.DAnimals suffer greatly as a result of global warming.解析:选A细节理解题。由第三段最后两句可知,生产肉类的过程会产生大量的二氧化碳,并且生产牛肉的过程还会向大气中排放更多的温室气体。31Which of the following is the most ecofriendly food according to the passage?ABeef. BCarrot.CPork
138、. DChicken.解析:选B细节理解题。由最后一段可知,任何肉类对地球造成的危害都要高于蔬菜,因此B项是最环保的食物。32We can learn from the passage that _.Aeating beef is good for our healthBit is not easy to make a hamburgerCgrowing potatoes can help clean the airDpork does less harm to the environment than beef解析:选D细节理解题。倒数第二段第一句提到,人们可以通过少吃牛肉来减少温室气体的排
139、放量;紧接着第二句提到,在温室气体的排放量方面,其他的肉类,如猪肉和鸡肉对环境的危害要小一些,因此D项正确。DThe little girl lived in a small, very simple, poor house on a hill and as she grew she would play in the small garden and as she grew she was able to see over the garden fence and across the valley to a wonderful house high on the hill and this
140、 house had golden windows, so golden and shining that the little girl would dream of how magic it would be to grow up and live in a house with golden windows instead of an ordinary house like hers, although she loved her parents and her family.When she got to an age when she gained enough skill and
141、sensibility to go outside her garden fence, she asked her mother if she could go for a bike ride outside the gate and down the lane. After pleading with her, her mother finally allowed her to go. The day was beautiful and the little girl knew exactly where she was heading! Down the lane and across t
142、he valley, she rode her bike until she got to the gate of the golden house across on the other hill.As she got down from her bike and leant it against the gate post, she focused on the path that led to the house and then on the house itself .and was so disappointed as she realized all the windows we
143、re plain and rather dirty. So sad she didnt go any further and turned, heart broken .As she glanced up she saw a sight to amaze her .there across the way on her side of the valley was a little house and its windows glistened golden .as the sun shone on her little home.She realized that she had been
144、living in her golden house and all the love and care she found there was what made her home the “golden house”. Everything she dreamed was right there in front of her nose!语篇解读:本文主要讲述了一个小女孩从小梦想着生活在对面山上的有金色窗子的房子里,但是当她长大后,亲自去看了所谓的带金色窗子的房子后,她的梦想破灭了。她突然意识到,其实自己一直生活在由来自家庭的爱与关心构成的“带金色窗子的房子”里。33Why did the
145、 little girl dream of living in a house high on the hill across the valley?ABecause her parents treated her very badly.BBecause she admired the golden windows of the house.CBecause the house across the valley looked bigger and more comfortable.DBecause she didnt love her parents and family.解析:选B细节理解
146、题。根据第一段的“.and this house had golden windows.”可知,女孩之所以梦想住在山谷对面的高山上的房子里,是因为她认为这座房子有金色窗子。而由本段最后一句可知D项不正确。A和C项未提及。故选B项。34Which of the following is the reason why the golden house came into being?AThe house was made of gold.BThe windows of the house were made of gold.CThe windows of the house were very b
147、right and clean.DThe sun shone on the windows of the house.解析:选D推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的内容可知,当小女孩站在远处看自己的家时,自己的家因为阳光的照射也变成了“带金色窗子的房子”,故可推测小女孩以前看到的“带金色窗子的房子”形成的原因也是因为阳光的照射。因此选D项。35What is the best title of the story?AA beautiful dream of a little girlBThe house with the golden windowsCA girl looking for a gold
148、en houseDCherish people and things around you解析:选B主旨大意题。从全文内容尤其是最后一段可知,本文主要是以“带金色窗子的房子”为主线来进行展开的。此处的“带金色窗子的房子”非本意,而是指小女孩一直生活在由来自家庭对她的爱所构成的“金屋”里,故选B项。而D项则是干扰项,是本文所要告诉我们的深层哲理。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文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。Simple Ways to Get HappyWe are not suggesting that you can reach
