Researchers guess that too much thinking consumes a lot of energy from the brain. So the brain, sensing that it
2、may soon require more calories to keep going, apparently leads to bodily hunger, and even though there has been little physical movement, we eat.The researchers note that tiring activity both increases the amount of blood sugar and lactate(乳酸盐)circulating in the blood and increases blood flow to the
3、 head.Because the brain uses sugar and lactate as fuel, researchers wondered if the increased flow of fuelrich blood during exercise could feed a wornout brain and reduce the urge to overeat.Thirtyeight healthy college students were invited to determine their fitness and metabolic(新陈代谢)rates and to
4、report what their favorite pizza was. Afterward, they sat quietly for 35 minutes before being given as much of their favorite pizza as they wanted. At a later date, the volunteers returned and spent 20 minutes making selections from college and graduateschool entrance exams.Next, half the students s
5、at quietly for 15 minutes, before being given pizza. The rest of the volunteers spent those 15 minutes doing intervals on a treadmill(跑步机)two minutes of hard running followed by about one minute of walking, repeated five times. These students were then allowed to gorge on pizza, too. But by and larg
6、e, they did not overeat.When the researchers factored in(将作为因素考虑)the calories burnt on running, they determined that those students actually consumed 200 fewer total calories after their brain workouts than the resting students.The researchers do not know if the runners consumed extra calories at di
7、nner. They also cannot tell whether other types of exercise would have the same effect as running, although the researchers say they suspect that if an activity causes someone to break into a sweat, it should also increase blood sugar and lactate, feeding the brain and weakening hungers call.1What d
8、o we learn from the first paragraph?AWe eat for more physical movements.BA busy brain can make one hungry.CEnergy from the brain cant be used up.DAn exam results in caloric consumption most.2What can a physical movement do?AIncrease blood flow.BIncrease the amount of blood sugar.CUrge one to eat mor
9、e.DMake the brain tired.3What does the underlined phrase “gorge on” in Paragraph 5 mean?AEat.BPurchase.CTaste.DObtain.【文章大意】本文为说明文。研究人员猜测，过多的思考会消耗大脑的大量能量，这显然会导致身体饥饿。由于大脑使用糖和乳酸盐作为燃料，研究人员想知道，在运动过程中增加的富含燃料的血液流量，是否能让疲惫的大脑得到补充，并减少暴饮暴食的冲动。文章介绍了这项研究。1B 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Researchers guess that too much thinking
10、consumes a lot of energy from the brain. So the brain, sensing that it may soon require more calories to keep going, apparently leads to bodily hunger, ”(研究人员猜测，过多的思考会消耗大脑的大量能量。因此，大脑感觉到它可能很快就需要更多的卡路里来维持运转，显然会导致身体饥饿)”可知，忙碌的大脑会让人感到饥饿。故选B。2A 细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers note that tiring activity both in
11、creases the amount of blood sugar and lactate(乳酸盐)circulating in the blood and increases blood flow to the head. (研究人员指出，累人的活动不仅会增加血液中循环的血糖和乳酸的含量，还会增加流向头部的血液流量)”可知，身体运动能增加血液流动。故选A。3A 词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“Next,half the students sat quietly for 15 minutes, before being given pizza.”（接下来，一半的学生安静地坐了15分钟，然后给他们吃
12、披萨）以及画线词后文“But by and large, they did not overeat.(总的来说，他们没有吃得太多)”，画线词句中的too表示“也”，可知这些学生也可以吃比萨。故画线短语意为“吃”。A. eat吃；B. purchase购买；C. taste品尝；D. obtain获得。故故选A。BLearning, Fast and DeepOver the past five years researchers in artificial intelligence have become the rock stars of the technology world.

Thats the question that changed my life forever.At the age of 19, I became a massage therapist(治疗师). For the first time in my life, I felt free, independent and completely in control of my
27、life. That is, until my life took a detour. I was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis. Over the course of two months, I lost my spleen(脾) , my kidneys , and both of my legs below the knees.One day, I went home. I crawled into bed and this is what my life looked like for the next few months: me passe
28、d out, escaping from reality, with my legs resting by my side. I was completely physically and emotionally broken. But I knew that in order to move forward, I had to let go of the old Amy and learn to embrace the new Amy. And that is when I began to realize that I didnt have to be small any more. I
29、could be as tall as I wanted or as short as I wanted depending on whom I was dating. And if I snowboard again, my feet arent going to get cold. And the best of all, I thought, I can make my feet the size of all the shoes that are on the sales shelf. And I did!I started snowboarding. Then I went back
30、 to work. And then I co-founded a non-profit organization for physical disabilities so that they could get involved in action sports. And just this past February, I won two World Cup gold medals, making me the highest-ranked adaptive female snowboarder in the world.Eleven years ago, when I lost my l
31、egs, I had no idea what to expect. But if you ask me today, if I would ever want to change my situation, I would have to say no, because my legs havent disabled me. Theyve forced me to rely on my imagination and to believe in possibilities, and thats why I believe that our imaginations can be used a
32、s tools for breaking through borders, because in our minds, we can do anything and we can be anything.

40、nd our limits.（相信那些梦想并直接面对我们的恐惧使我们能够超越自己的极限生活）可知，Amy用她的故事告诉了我们：只要我们拥抱挑战，敢于想象，心怀感恩，我们依然可以给烂透了的生活绝地反击。由此可知，文章的基调是乐观的，激励人心的。故选C。DEver walked to the shops only to find, once there, youve completely forgotten what you went for? Or struggled to remember the name of an old friend? For years weve accepted t
41、hat a forgetful brain is as much a part of aging as wrinkles and gray hair. But now a new book suggests that weve got it all wrong.According to The Secret Life of the Grown-up Brain, by science writer Barbara Strauch, when it comes to the important things, our brains actually get better with age. In
42、 fact, she argues that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s much later than previously thought.Furthermore, rather than losing many brain cells as we age, we keep them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years its been assumed that brain, much
43、 like the body, declines with age. But the longest, largest study into what happens to people as they age suggests otherwise.This continuing research has followed 6,000 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that on average, participants performed better on cognitive (认知的) t
44、ests in their 40s and 50s than they had done in their 20s. Specifically, older people did better on tests of vocabulary, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem solving. Where they performed less well was number ability and perceptual speed how fast you can push a button when ord
45、ered. However, with more complex tasks such as problem-solving and language, we are at our best at middle age and beyond. In short, researchers are now coming up with scientific proof that we do get wiser with age.Neuroscientists are also finding that we are happier with aging. A recent US study fou
46、nd older people were much better at controlling and balancing their emotions. It is thought that when were younger we need to focus more on the negative aspects of life in order to learn about the possible dangers in the world, but as we get older weve learned our lessons and are aware that we have
47、less time left in life: therefore, it becomes more important for us to be happy.12Barbara Strauch probably agrees that _.Athe young are better at handling important thingsBwrinkles and gray hair are the only symbols of agingCaging leads to the decline of the function of the brainDpeoples brains work
48、 best between their 40s and 60s13The continuing research has found older people perform better on _.Avocabulary testsBnumber abilityCperceptual speedDbody balance14People are happier with aging because _.Athey know how to share feelingsBthey learn to value the time leftCthey cannot focus on negative
49、 aspectsDthey do not realize the possible dangers15What is the main idea of the passage?APeople get happier with age.BPeople get more forgetful with age.CPeople get wiser with age.DPeople get more self-aware with age.【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述的内容是随着年龄的增长，确实会变得更聪明。同样发现，人也会越来越开心。12D 细节理解题。根据第二段的In fact, she
50、 argues that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s她认为一些研究已经发现，我们的大脑在40岁到60岁之间达到顶峰，可知Barbara Strauch人们的大脑在40到60岁之间工作得最好，故选D项。13A 细节理解题。根据第四段的Specifically, older people did better on tests of vocabulary, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem
51、 solving. 持续的研究发现，老年人在词汇测试、语言记忆(你能记住多少单词)和解决问题方面表现得更好。故选A项。14B 推理判断题。根据最后一段的as we get older weve learned our lessons and are aware that we have less time left in life : therefore, it becomes more important for us to be happy.随着年龄的增长我们学到教训，意识到我们还剩下更少的时间活着，因此,快乐对于我们来说更重要。由此可以推知，随着年龄的增长，人们会更快乐，因为他们学会珍惜
52、剩下的时间，故选B项。15C 主旨大意题。通读全文和第五段的In short, researchers are now coming up with scientific proof that we do get wiser with age.可知本文主要讲述的内容是随着年龄的增长，确实会变得更聪明，故选C项。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。Many people would like to return to school to increase earning potential, realize
