19、 the nutritional and social needs of seniors.( 上门送餐服务的使命是满足老年人的营养和社会需求。)”可知Meals on Wheels这个项目主要为老年人提供服务。故选B。BOver the years, Brian Wansink, director of the Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University, has studied such things as how far Americans typically drive to buy food, how many times we refill ou
20、r plates at all-you-can-eat buffets and how we organize our kitchens. In the mid-2000s he famously coined the phrase “mindless eating”(and wrote a book by that name) to focus attention on all the bad dietary decisions we make without really thinking about them.His new book, Slim by Design: Mindless
21、Eating Solutions for Everyday Life, aims to change the design of restaurants, school lunchrooms, office cafeterias and homes so that the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones. Some examples:Keep kitchen counters clear. No visible snack food, no bread, no nuts not even breakfast cereal
22、. In Wansinks research, “women who had even one box of breakfast cereal that was visible anywhere in their kitchen weighed 21 pounds more than their neighbor who didnt.”Trick yourself into drinking less wine. “We tend to focus on the height of what we pour and not the width, so we pour 12 percent le
23、ss wine into taller wineglasses than we pour into wider wineglasses.” And the shape of the glass is not the only variable that affects how much we drink. Wansink writes: “Because red wine is easier to see than white wine, we pour 9 percent less red wine whenever we pour a glass.”Wansink said his res
24、earchers also found that people ate less at restaurants when sat in well-lighted areas near windows and doors, than in darker areas or in the back. They ate less if they were offered a doggie bag, or to-go box, before they got their meals: apparently the idea of getting a “free” second meal outweigh
25、ed the impulse (冲动) to clean their plates. Workers who frequently ate at their desks weighed 15.4 pounds less, on average, than those who didnt. Fruits and vegetables kept on the top shelf of the refrigerator were eaten at higher rates than those on lower shelves.The point, Wansink says, is to consi
26、der findings like those and change your environment or habits. Then you wont have to think about it: Youll just eat less.4. Why did Brian Wansink write Slim by Design: Mindless eating Solutions for Everyday Life?A. Because he wanted people to become thin.B. Because he wished to change the design of
27、dining places.C. Because he hoped to coin a new phrase “mindless eating”.D Because he intended to help people make more healthful dietary decision.5. According to Wansink, which of the following affects the amount of wine we drink _.A. the shape of wineglassesB. the color of wineglassesC. the taste

30、at the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones.可知,他写新书的目的是为了让人们能够选择更加健康的食物,故选D。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中的“We tend to focus on the height of what we pour and not the width, so we pour 12 percent less wine into taller wineglasses than we pour into wider wineglasses.”可知,人们倒酒是比较注重高度而不是宽度,所以用比较高的杯子
31、比用比较粗的杯子酒会少12%,所以酒杯的形状影响了酒的量,故选A。【6题详解】词义猜测题。根据下文or to-go box可推断出doggie bag的意思是盛剩饭剩菜的容器,故选C。【7题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“His new book, aims to change the design of restaurants, school lunchrooms, office cafeterias and homes so that the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones.”以及下面几段的例子说明了改变吃饭的环境
32、可以使人吃的少一些,故选A。【点睛】概括主旨的方法是:先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句,若无明显主题句,就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句,记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时,务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。第二段His new book, Slim by Design: Mindless Eating Solutions for Everyday Life, aims to change the design of restaurants, school lunchrooms, office cafete
33、rias and homes so that the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones.就是文章的主题句,所以这篇文章主要说明了改变吃饭的环境可以使人吃的少一些。CYou have probably heard of the Mozart effect. Its the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed of Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet sea
34、rch shows plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozarts music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is more mixed.The phrase “the Mozart effect” was made up in 1991, bu
35、t it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that aroused real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain. It is one of those ideas that sound reasonable. Mozart was no doubt a genius himself; his music is complex and the
36、re is a hope that if we listen to enough of it, well become more intelligent.The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children, and in 1998 Zell Miller, the Governor of the state of Georgia in the USA, even asked for money to be set aside in the state budget so that every
37、 newborn baby could be sent a CD of classical music. It was not just babies and children who were exposed to Mozarts music on purpose, even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the cows were played Mozart three times a day to help them to produce better milk.Ill leave the debate on the effect on
38、 milk production to farmers, but what about the evidence that listening to Mozart makes people more intelligent? More research was carried out but an analysis of 16 different studies confirmed (证实) that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally,
39、 but the benefits are short-lived and it doesnt make us more intelligent.8. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. Mozart composed many musical pieces for children.B. Children listening to Mozart will be more intelligentC. There are few products on the Internet about Mozarts musicD. There is little s
40、cientific evidence to support the Mozart effect.9. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 suggests that A. people were strongly against the idea.B. the idea was accepted by many people.C. Mozart played an important part in peoples life.D. the US government helped promote the idea.10. Whats the authors
41、 attitude towards the Mozart effect?A. Favorable.B. Objective.C. Doubtful.D. Positive.11. What is the best title for the passage?A. Listening to Mozart, necessary?B. What music is beneficial?C. What is the Mozart effect?D. To be or not to be?【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述很多人相信听莫扎特的音乐会
42、让人更聪明,但是研究表明这种影响是短暂的,并不能让人们更加聪明。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中“Whatever your age, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozarts music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is more mixed.(无论你处在什么年龄,总有唱片和书能让你感受莫扎特音乐的魅力,但是当谈到莫扎特音乐能让你更聪明的科学证据时,情况更复杂
43、了)”可知,没有什么科学证据来支持莫扎特音乐能让你更聪明,也就是莫扎特效应,故选D。【9题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段中“The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children(这个观点很流行,很多父母给孩子听莫扎特的音乐)”以及“It was not just babies and children who were exposed to Mozarts music on purpose, even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the co
44、ws were played Mozart three times a day to help them to produce better milk.(不仅婴儿和儿童有意地接触莫扎特音乐,甚至一位意大利的农民让他的牛一天听三次莫扎特音乐来帮助他们产更好的牛奶)”可知,不管是婴儿还是儿童,他们的父母都会给他们听莫扎特的音乐,甚至还有人给牛放莫扎特音乐让他们产奶。由此推知,划线词组表明这种想法被大部分人接受。故选B。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中“More research was carried out but an analysis of 16 different studies c
45、onfirmed (证实) that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short-lived and it doesnt make us more intelligent.(很多研究被实施了,但是对于16种不同的研究分析证实了听音乐确实能暂时提高大脑处理形状的能力,但是这种影响是短暂的而且也不能让我们更聪明)”可知,作者对莫扎特效应的态度是怀疑的,故选C。【11题详解】主旨大意题。文章第一段
46、中“You have probably heard of the Mozart effect.(你可能听过莫扎特效应)”可知,文章主要讲和莫扎特效应相关的信息,结合第3题的分析可知。作者用研究结果表明了听莫扎特音乐不能产生让人更聪明的效应。由此可知,文章主要讲述听莫扎特的音乐并不像大家想的那样让人聪明,所以Listening to Mozart, necessary?(听莫扎特,有必要吗?)适合做本文最佳标题。故选A。DOn a trip to India in 2012, Anirudh Sharma took a photo of a diesel generator (柴油发电机) bl
47、owing black soot (烟灰) against a white wall. That dark stain made Sharma, who was then a student in the Media Lab of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), think seriously about pollutionand also about coloring matters, like ink.The black ink we use in our pens or in inkjet printers is essentia
48、lly from soot. The technical term for the substance is “carbon black”, and it is the powder that remains after burning coal or oil. The powder is mixed with other chemicals to turn it into smooth, flowing black ink.“So, if you can do it with soot, can we do the same with air pollution?” Sharma expla
49、ins. “The black ink in the pen you use is made by burning fossil fuels. But you shouldnt need to burn new fossil fuels just to make ink. Fossil fuels are already being burned.” If he could find a way, he thought, to catch the soot that produced that stain on the wall in his photograph, he could not
50、only reduce the amount of pollution released into the air, but also turn it into something new, or perhaps something beautiful.In 2014, following the completion of his Masters degree at MIT, Sharma returned to India to focus fully on developing what would become a product called AIR-INK, the first c
51、ommercial ink made entirely from air pollution. He and his team built a lab in a small garage in Bangalore to create a device that could catch air pollution at the source, in engines or factory machinery.They first developed a filtering device called Kaalink that consisted of a steel container that
52、could be attached to an exhaust pipe. Now Kaalink can filter air pollution from almost any source, and turn it into soot, which is then processed to form ink that can be used in AIR-INK pens and markers. Each marker holds about 30 milliliters of AIR-INK, which is equal to approximately 45 minutes of
53、 diesel car pollution.The inventor would like AIR-INK to have practical applications, like in inkjet printers in offices, newsprint, or textbooks. “Weve set up industries for our comfort, but the environment has to bear the price of it.” Sharma explains, adding that AIR-INK isnt a complete solution
54、to the worlds pollution problem. “Its a start, and it can inspire several others to start looking at new forms of waste that are lying outside, unused.”12. What inspired Sharma to make ink out of air pollution?A. A photo he took in India.B. The lack of ink in his studies.C. The serious pollution in
55、the U.S.D. His experiments in the laboratory.13. What do we know about “carbon black”?A. It is a useful kind of fuel.B. It is the main air pollutant.C. It is the key component of ink.D. It is usually in the form of a liquid.14. Which of the following is the correct order to make AIR-INK?A. Sootexhau

It is costly but practical.C. It helps raise environmental awareness.D. It has gained the admiration of
57、other inventors.【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了麻省理工学院的学生Sharma,受到一张照片的启发,开发出了一种用空气污染制造出的墨水。不仅可以减少排放到空气中的污染,而且还可以把污染变成新的东西,或者是美丽的东西。介绍了这种油墨的制作过程以及意义。【12题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“On a trip to India in 2012, Anirudh Sharma took a photo of a diesel generator (柴油发电机) blowing black soot (烟灰) against
58、a white wall. That dark stain made Sharma, who was then a student in the Media Lab of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), think seriously about pollutionand also about coloring matters, like ink.(2012年去印度旅行时,Anirudh Sharma拍了一张柴油发电机对着白墙吹黑烟的照片。这种深色污渍让当时还是麻省理工学院媒体实验室学生的Sharma开始认真思考污染问题,以及墨水等染色
59、问题)”可知,是Sharma在印度拍的一张照片启发了他用空气污染来制造墨水。故选A。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“The technical term for the substance is carbon black, and it is the powder that remains after burning coal or oil. The powder is mixed with other chemicals to turn it into smooth, flowing black ink.(这种物质的技术术语是炭黑,它是煤或石油燃烧后留下的粉末。这种粉末与其他化学物质
60、混合后,就变成了光滑的、流动的黑色墨水)”可知,“炭黑”是油墨的关键成分。故选C。【14题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Now Kaalink can filter air pollution from almost any source, and turn it into soot, which is then processed to form ink that can be used in AIR-INK pens and markers. Each marker holds about 30 milliliters of AIR-INK, which is equal to ap
61、proximately 45 minutes of diesel car pollution.(现在,Kaalink几乎可以过滤来自任何来源的空气污染,并将其转化为烟灰,再将烟灰加工成墨水,用于制造空气墨水笔和记号笔。每个记号笔约有30毫升的空气油墨,相当于约45分钟的柴油车污染)”可知,制作空气油墨的顺序为:空气污染物Kaalink烟灰空气油墨。故选D。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Its a start, and it can inspire several others to start looking at new forms of waste that are lying
62、 outside, unused.(这是一个开始,它可以激励其他几个人开始寻找闲置的、未被利用的新垃圾)”可推知,Sharma的发明有助于提高环境意识。故选C。第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The pursuit of happinessWhat is happiness?_16_However, most of us would probably agree that happiness is a feeling that life is good, that our surr

69、6题详解】根据前句“What is happiness?”(幸福是什么?)可知,C项“幸福对我们每个人来说都有不同的含义。”是对前句的问题进行了回答。同时又和后句“However, most of us would probably agree that happiness is a feeling that life is good, that our surroundings are a bit brighter and more beautiful than usual, and that were in harmony with family and friends.”(然而,我们大多
70、数人可能会同意,幸福是一种感觉,生活是美好的,我们的环境比平常更明亮和美丽,我们与家人和朋友和睦相处。)构成前后转折。C项切题。故选C项。【17题详解】前句“While the concept of happiness has been around for thousands of years, for much of that time, humans were simply struggling to survive.”(虽然幸福的概念已经存在了数千年,但在那段时间里,人类只是在为生存而挣扎。)说明因为在数千年前,人类为了生存而挣扎,与E项“他们几乎不可能考虑生活质量。”构成因果关系。故
71、选E项。【18题详解】根据本段前句“The increasing interest in the topic is being given extra weight by the realization that material wealth alone is not making us happier.”(认识到光靠物质财富并不能使我们更加幸福,这使人们对该主题的兴趣日增。)和划线后句提及的“Then economists and social scientists got to work trying to find out what-if not material wealth-mak
72、es us happy.(随后,经济学家和社会科学家开始努力找出是什么如果不是物质财富让我们感到幸福。)”可知,研究表明物质财富没办法让我们感到幸福。故G项“研究表明,财富的增加似乎并没有使人们更幸福。”符合本段主旨。同时G项和后句构成递进关系。故选G项。【19题详解】根据划线前面提及的“There is no final answer, but Richard Layard, a professor at the London School of Economics, suggests that our relationships, work satisfaction and mental
73、health are more important for us as individuals than how much we earn.”(还是没有最终答案,但伦敦政治经济学院(London School of Economics)教授理查德莱亚德(Richard Layard)认为,对我们个人来说,人际关系、工作满意度和心理健康比挣多少钱更重要。)可知,此处强调:如果要幸福对我们个人来说,人际关系、工作满意度和心理健康比挣多少钱更重要。此处从个人的角度出发,探讨了幸福是什么。D项“作为一个社会,如果有社会信任和自由,我们会更幸福。”告知我们:从社会角度出发,拥有社会信任和自由的话,我们会
74、更幸福,符合语境。故选D项。【20题详解】根据划线前句提出的问题“But is there a book that looks at whether self-help books actually work?”(但是,有没有一本书探讨自助类书籍是否真的有用呢?)以及划线后面的答句“Its called Help Me!: How self-help has not changed my life.”(它叫救救我!:自助并没有改变我的生活。)可知,划线后句是对划线前句的问题做出肯定回答。因此A项“是的。有!”切题。故选A项。第三部分 语言运用(共四节,满分 40 分)第一节(共 15 小题;每
