22、 telling myself that I will find work againI am confident in my experience and abilities, but self-doubt was still sticking its foot in the door.The game entered the fourth quarter with Nathans team still falling behind. I saw the determination on his back to not only tie (使.打成平局) the game, but then
23、 go ahead by three points. Then, a player from the other team made an unbelievable shot to tie the game up again. With a tie game and seconds on the clock, Nathan found himself with the ball and with skill and confidence, he made the basket with a defender hanging all over him. The other player was
24、called for a foul(犯规).As Nathan stood preparing for a shot(投篮) that would put his team up by three points, I saw the focus and determination on his face, with no room for self-doubt. After he made the free throw, his team managed to stop the other team from scoring, winning the game and moving on to
25、 the finals.As I sat there, my heart bursting with pride, it dawned on me (突然醒悟). I had taught him perseverance(毅力) in the face of adversity, and he had just taught me the same lesson.

29、DAn Unforgettable ExperienceDWe already know that eating too much salt can lead to heart disease. But could it also affect our mind? Scientists found that a high-salt diet could cause cognitive impairments (认知损伤) in mice(老鼠), and it could produce the same effect on humans. Dr Costantino Iadecola, di
30、rector of the Feil Family Brain and Mind Research Institute, said they fed the mice eight to sixteen times their normal salt intake (摄入量) and then tested the mice. After about three months, the mice had a big change in their behaviour. Mice are very curious, and they like to look for new things. How
31、ever, the tested mice lost the ability to identify (识别) a normal object. When the mice were put in their cage and asked to find a quiet spot, they did not remember where the quiet spot was. Then when the mice were building a nest, which is something the mice do daily, they were unable to do so. The
32、research suggested humans would experience a similar response. Studies have shown Australians eat around double the recommended amount of salt each day, most of it coming from processed food. Dr Iadecola said the estimated(预估的) two teaspoons of salt the average Australian eats each day could affect
33、the brain function in the long term. However, the decline might not be as obvious as in the mice, who were given extremely high levels of salt. “ But probably over years and perhaps decades as opposed to (相对于) a few months for the mice even lower levels of salt may have a terrible effect, ” Dr Iadec
34、ola said. “High levels of salt cause serious immune (免疫的) changes in the organs in and around the stomach, resulting in an almost autoimmune (自身免疫的) effect on the brain. It is part of a growing body of evidence that we really are what we eat, ”Bryce Vissel, director of the Centre for Neuroscience at
35、 the University of Technology Sydney, said. “Those changes in turn cause all kinds of responses in the body, which over time certainly lead to cognitive impairments. ”32Which can describe the tested mice?AThey forgot some routine things.BThey became smarter than ever.CThey remain quiet all day.DThey
36、 were quick at finding objects.33What does the decline in Paragraph 3 refer to?Athe good effect of high levels of salt intake on AustraliansBthe good effect of high levels of salt intake on miceCthe bad effect of high levels of salt intake on miceDthe bad effect of high levels of salt intake on Aust

This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Heres how:Plan your t
39、ime carefully. When you plan your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time.First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc., then decide a good, regular time for studying. 37A weekly schedule may not solve all you
40、r problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you

101、话题,从而可推断出选项。 3. 词语复现显神功上下文与主题相关的词语通常会以原词、同义词、近义词、同根词或同范畴词等形式在上下文中重复出现。如第1小题,设空处后一句中“ never be a top student”和选项E中的“average student”是同义词复现;又如第3小题,选项C中take advantage of和该段首句Make good use of是同义词词组;class time和your time in class是语义重复。根据这些词汇复现可确定选项。值得注意的是,有的题利用词语复现解题十分管用,但这并不意味着凡与上句或下句有复现词的选项就一定是正确选项,只是正确
