22、 only time he had been there. It was in the 1930s, when he was an editor of the literary magazine of Southern Methodist University(SMU) in Dallas, Texas. He also worked as a professor at SMU, and there was a girl student in his class who suffered from a serious back disease. She couldnt afford the o
23、peration because her family was poor.Her mother ran a boardinghouse in Galveston, a seaside town near Houston, Texas. She was cleaning out the attic(阁楼) one day when she came across an old dusty manuscript(手稿). On its top page were the words, “By O. Henry.” It was a nice story, and she sent it to he
24、r daughter at SMU, who showed it to my father. My father had never read the story before, but it sounded like O. Henry, and he knew that O. Henry had once lived in Houston. So it was possible that the famous author had gone to the beach and stayed in the Galveston boardinghouse, and had written the
25、story there and left the manuscript behind by accident. My father visited an O. Henry expert at Columbia University in New York, who authenticated the story as O. Henrys.My father then set out to sell it. Eventually, he found himself in Des Moines, meeting with Gardner Cowles, a top editor at the De
26、s Moines Register. Cowles loved the story and bought it on the spot. My father took the money to the girl.

29、elf. C. To talk with the O. Henry expert. D. To give money to the girl.CI am sure weve all come across inspiring quotes that made us nod in agreement or made us think, “Wow, thats good quotes”. But we end up going back to procrastinating（拖延）on whatever it was we were procrastinating on. So are these
30、 inspirational quotes even worth reading? Well, that depends.Quotes, books, articles, audio programs all of these things are just tools and theyre only effective when you use them. I dont know about you but most quotes I read dont do anything for me. However, every now and then, I will come across o
31、ne that will positively affect me in some way such as reminding me to be grateful, getting me to work out extra hard at the gym without being pressed by my wife, or never give up when things get tough.From my experience, reading quotes is more effective when youre actually trying to motivate yoursel
32、f rather than just reading them for the sake of reading them. The second you feel the urge to take action, youd better immediately get up off your chair and take action.These quotes arent for everyone. If you have read tons of them and have never been motivated or had a positive change in the way yo
33、u look at life or how you treat others, or these quotes dont help you to insist on doing something when you feel like giving up on it, then its probably not worth your time reading more of them. If you have done something a bunch of times and its not giving you the results you want, dont keep doing

36、influence on people. B. You shouldnt waste time on the things you dont like. C. Many ways can motivate you besides reading inspiring quotes. D.

38、 study found going without sleep for just one night causes changes in the brain similar to those that occur after a blow to the head. The researchers said the healthy young men examined in the study showed a sudden increase in the same chemicals which indicate brain damage. Professor Christian Bened
39、ict, of Uppsala University, Sweden, explained that the chemicals NSE and S-100B are biomarkers(生物指标) for brain damage, such as concussion(脑震荡). He said, “What we found was their levels in the blood rose in the group that went without sleep for a night. This was not to the extent that would happen af
40、ter a head injury, for instance, but it was still significant. During sleep, the brain cleans poisonous substances off itself. Benedict also said previous studies which linked a lack of sleep with increased risk of Alzheimers, Parkinsons and multiple sclerosis could applaud his study. The rise of th
41、e chemicals in the blood after sleep loss may suggest not getting enough sleep contributes to a loss of brain tissue, he explained. Benedict, whose study is published in the journal Sleep, added, “In conclusion, the findings of our experiment indicate a good nights sleep may be critical to maintaini
42、ng brain health.”A third of the UK population suffer from sleep-related problems, while the average person now sleeps for only seven hours a night, compared with almost nine a few decades ago. Many scientists believe irregular sleeping patterns lead to illnesses ranging from aches and pains to heart
43、 disease, while less than eight hours sleep a night can lower the IQ the next day.37. If you dont sleep for a night, what will happen? A. NSE and S-100B will increase.B. The brain damage will be like a head injury. C. You will suffer from concussion.D. The brain will get rid of poisonous substances.
44、38. What do we know about previous studies? A. They found reasons for brain disorders. B. Their findings were published in Sleep. C. They were supported by Benedicts study. D. They focused on brain health.39. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. People in the UK have the worst sleep in the
45、world. B. Mans intelligence is affected by sleep in a way. C. A lack of sleep causes all brain-related problems. D. People were more intelligent in the past.40. Whats the main idea of the passage? A. Eight hours sleep is important. B. Regular-sleeping patterns improve health. C. Sleep loss is close
46、to a blow to the head. D. Human brains work during sleep.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。 Rebel has three meanings according to my dictionary: 1) a person who fights against the government of their country. 2) a person who opposes somebody in authority over them withi
47、n an organization, a political party, etc. 3) a person who does not like to obey rules or who does not accept normal standards of behavior, dress, etc. Today, 41 . Some might say, rebels are the destroyers of our normal society. To some extent, yes, they are. 42 In my view, every step of advance has
48、 rebels significant contribution. I have seen a TED talk, from which a man, born in an Islamic family, talked about his father who was an IS member took him to have a drill, using a sniper rifle to shoot a target, when he was about 10 years old. 43 Of course, his father was a militant and had plotte
49、d a bombing attack. But as the man grew up, he found that his family was not going in a right way. Then he left his family, changed his beliefs and gave a TED talk, which shows that he is not a militant like his father. 44 Yes, The Son is not like The Father. Isnt his son a rebel that didnt obey his
50、 familys rules and the standards of his fathers behavior? If not, what would happen? 45 Just because we have those rebels who can see the drawbacks and flaws of their families, they can replace them with virtues, revise their ideas, and change the lines of their beliefs. So, we couldnt criticize a r
51、ebel more. Suppose they could change our future to a better one, should we give them a chance to do what they want? A. They, the rebels, are hopes instead, in my view.B. And also because of that, our society moves forward.C. I think from this story you could get the gist of what I am going to talk a
52、bout.D. No doubt, another militant or terrorist came out from his family.E. Each family has something imperfect which needs to revise.F. I only want to talk about the third meaning of the word rebel and discuss the significance of being it.G. Finally, he hit the target, and his uncles around him pra

74、饰the reason，引导词在从句中作原因状语，故该定语从句要用why或for which引导。“_ I got a new job”是表语从句，根据句意可知，该从句意思和结构完整，故该从句要用that引导。综上所述，B选项切题。 17D【解析】考查名词性从句和非限制性定语从句。句意：众所周知的是那个过去生活很艰难的老工人70岁了还很辛苦工作。第一空是主语从句，A不能用来引导主语从句，故排除A；主语从句缺少主语，用what，构成what . is that.句型。；it作形式主语的句型是it is known to us all that.，句中that前有is，故排除C；第二空是非限制性定
75、语从句，先行词是the old worker，定语从句中缺少定语，whom不能用作定语，用whose引导定语从句。故选D。 18.C【解析】考查固定句型。该题考查的是not until的强调句式：It was not until+被强调部分+that+其他部分，故C选项切题。其中，he found后面是宾语从句，从句中what he thought是what引导的主语从句。 19D【解析】考查非谓语动词。句意：没有暴露在阳光之下是这些古画得以良好保存的原因。be exposed to意为“暴露在之下”。分析句子结构可知，“_to sunlight”是主语，accounts for是谓语部分，t

77、ge和situate之间是被动关系，故要用过去分词作宾语补足语。综上所述，B选项切题。 21C【解析】考查时态。句意：自从他将重要的决定建立在理性而不是情感的基础之上，他的事业就蒸蒸日上。该题考查的是since引导的时间状语的时态。since意为“自从”，since引导的时间状语从句用一般过去时态，主句用现在完成时态。base sth. on sth.意为“把建立在的基础之上”，be based on意为“以为基础”，结合句意，第二个空应该用baseon结构，故C选项切题。 22.B【解析】考查非谓语动词。句意：最近，一个比较两个不同超市相同物品价格的调查引发了市民之间的激烈辩论。分析句子结构
78、可知，“_ prices of the same goods in two different supermarkets”是定语，修饰a survey，a survey和compare之间是主动关系，故要用现在分词作定语，B选项切题。 23.A【解析】考查时态。句意：嘿，看看你往哪儿走呢？喔，很抱歉。我没有注意到。由语境可知，第二个人刚才没有注意碰到了第一个人。“没注意到”是刚才发生的动作，故该空要用过去时态，A选项切题。 24D【解析】考查非谓语动词和名词性从句。句意：时间允许的话，他们承诺给任何提问的人一次机会和吉祥物合影。Time permitting为独立主格结构，time与permi
