27、tand or use words due to brain damage are called aphasics(失语症患者). Such patients can be extremely good at something else. From the changing expressions on speakers faces and the tones of their voices, they can tell lies from truths. Doctors studying the human brain have given a number of examples of
28、this amazing power of aphasics. Some have even compared this power to that of a dog with an ability to find out the drugs hidden in the baggage. Recently, scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true. They studied a mixed group of people. Some were normal; others
29、were aphasics. It was proved that the aphasics were far ahead of the normal people in recognizing false speeches in most cases, the normal people were fooled by words, but the aphasics were not. Some years ago, Dr. Oliver Sacks wrote in his book about his experiences with aphasics. He mentioned a pa
30、rticular case in a hospital. Some aphasics were watching the president giving a speech on TV. Since the president had been an actor earlier, making a good speech was no problem for him. He was trying to put his feelings into every word of his speech. But his way of speaking had the opposite effect o
31、n the patients. They didnt seem to believe him. Instead, they burst into laughter. The aphasics knew that the president did not mean a word of what he was saying. He was lying! Many doctors see aphasics as people who are not completely normal because they lack the ability to understand words. Howeve
32、r, according to Dr. Sacks, they are more gifted than normal people. Normal people may get carried away by words. Aphasics seem to understand human expressions better, though they cannot understand words.56. What is so surprising about aphasics?A. They can fool other people.B. They can find out the h
33、idden drugs.C. They can tell whether people are lying.D. They can understand language better.57. How did the scientists study aphasics? A. By asking them to watch TV together. B. By comparing them with normal people. C. By organizing them into acting groups. D. By giving them chances to speak on TV.
34、58. What do we learn from this text? A. People poor at one thing can be good at another. B. What one says reflects how one feels. C. Aphasics have richer feelings than others. D. Normal people often tell lies in their speeches. BLONDON: The Edinburgh Festival, the biggest arts festival of its kind i
35、n the world, got under way in the Scotland capital on Sunday with a concert that included Hector Berlionzs To Deum, under the direction of Christoph von Dohnanyi. The festival, which runs until August 31 this year, includes as its high points Peter Steins staging of Wagners Parsifal, with Claudio Ab
36、bado directing the Gustav Mahler youth orchestra. The concert programme includes American pianist Richard Goode, bass baritone Thomas Quasthoff and violinist Christian Tetzlaff. New to the programmes this year will be 25 late evening classical music concerts. Earlier this month, the Edinburgh Fringe
37、 Festival, the largest show-case in the world for performance art, officially got under way with theatre, dance, poetry and music presentations. Many of the fringe artists, who can enter the fringe festival upon payment of a small fee, were inspired this year by the event of September 11. Thousands
38、of people flock to Edinburgh from around the world during the festival, which is over 50 years old. It aims to promote and encourage arts and to reflect international culture.

C Animals can move from place to place, but plants cannot. When an animal is under attack, it can run away or fight back. Plants certainly ca
42、nnot run away, and they lack teeth and claws. But plants can defend themselves by using both physical and chemical means. Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away. For example, the leaves of the holly plant have sharp spines(刺) that discourage grass-eating animals. Holly leaves on lower
43、branches have more spines than leaves on upper branches. This is because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach. Some plants , such as the oak trees, have thick and hard leaves that are difficult for animals to eat. Some grasses may contain a sandy material; eating such grasses wears
44、down the animals teeth. Many plants also have chemical defenses. Some plants produce chemicals that taste bitter or cause an unpleasant reaction. Some plants may fight against an attack by increasing the production of these chemicals. When a caterpillar(毛虫)bites a tobacco leaf, the leaf produces a c
45、hemical messenger. This messenger sends to the roots the information to produce more nicotine. The higher levels of nicotine discourage the caterpillar. Many plants depends on both physical and chemical defenses. A certain plant in China , for instance, has prickly(多刺的) leaves, and each prickle cont
46、ains poisonous venom(毒液). A single experience with this kind of plant will teach an animal to stay away from it in the future.63.

49、 Animals Eat Plant Leaves D Every family with kids has seen its share of arguments, shouting and complaining. It turns out that all those conflicts serve an important purpose in the development of children . Saying “no” followed by a bad temper, just may be an unavoidable part of growing up. And tha
50、ts a good thing. These are the first steps toward independence. Even young children have to challenge their parents sometimes. Studies have shown the following:Although stressful, conflicts are beneficial for children.Learning to manage conflicts is necessary for a childs development.Conflicts durin
51、g the preschool years occur because children desire more attention than parents can or should give. If you understand why conflicts occur, it can minimize the conflicts between you and your children. Conflict is a childs attempt to develop a sense of self and how he or she learns to express his or h
52、er needs and ideas. Parents develop and drive this independence by putting children to the outside world both formally and informally.Conflicts can grow out of a difference of opinion or might just be a way to blow off steam(发脾气). In rare situations, constant conflicts between parents and children c
53、an indicate a deeper emotional problem. Consult your doctor if this seems to be your situation.Its important to offer your child choices, which should be determined by age and developmental level. The more responsible a child is, the more choices he or she gets in reward. You can threaten your child
54、 with punishment, but often offering a choice will better improve angry situations. Consequences and rewards should have some meaning to your child.Often a childs adverse(敌对的)reaction when he or she hears the word “no” can be avoided by giving the child an explanation as to why you have refused his
55、or her request.67. The intended readers of this passage are .A. parents B. doctors C. teachers D. children 68.

57、licts between parents and their children . A. lead to more misunderstandings B. doesnt really mean a deep emotional problem C. is an important choice D. involve visiting doctors71. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Children understand what their parents think of clearly.B. Children enjoy giv
58、ing their opinions by conflicting with their parents.C. Most parents would rather punish their children than reward them.D. Communication can reduce conflicts between parents and children. E Can you remember a morning when youve woken up to the ring of your alarm clock and wished you could stay in b
59、ed? You havent slept well, your hair is a mess. Worse, you cant stop yawning. Yawning is universal to humans and many animals. Cats, dogs and fish yawn just like humans do! Yawning is an involuntary(无意识的,不自觉的) action during which you open your mouth and breathe deeply. The average duration of a yawn
60、 is about 6 seconds. The purpose and cause of yawning are still a mystery. Scientists are not sure what causes a yawn. People yawn when they are tired or bored, but they also yawn when they arent. There are many ideas explaining why we yawn. One idea is that yawning is a way for the body to become m
61、ore alert by taking in more oxygen. A yawn increases the heart rate, forces carbon dioxide out of the lungs and blood stream, and brings oxygen to the brain. But one study showed that volunteers given a lot of oxygen did not yawn any less than before, while those given a lot of carbon dioxide did no
62、t yawn more.Another idea is that early humans used yawning as a form of communication. If one decided it was time to sleep, they would tell the others by yawning and they would do it in return to show they agreed.A third explanation comes from psychology professor Gordon Gallup of University at Alba
63、ny in New York. He said that as people yawn, they cool off their brains. “Brains are like computers.” he said. “They only operate efficiently and effectively when theyre cool. Many things connected to yawning, like being tired, make the brain hot, and yawning can reduce the heat.”Scientists have sen
64、t people into space, and created terrible nuclear weapons, but there are lots of seemingly simple things, such as why we yawn, or hiccup（打嗝）, that they cant figure out. Next time you are in class in the morning, let out a big yawn and watch to see how many of your classmates yawn in response!72. Wha
65、ts the purpose of the description of how bad you may feel when youre woken up in the morning? A.To explain why humans yawn.B. To explain how humans start yawning. C. To lead into the topic of yawning.D. To complain about being woken up by the clock.73. Which is not among the possible reasons for yaw
66、ning mentioned in the passage? A. A way to show that you feel hot.B. A way to get rid of carbon dioxide. C. A way to cool off your brain.D. A way to communicate.74. In which situation are you likely to yawn? A. When you feel frustrated.B. The weather is hot.C. Someone else yawns near you.D. When you
67、 breathe in a lot of carbon dioxide.75. What can we learn from the passage? A. The real reason why humans and most animals yawn. B. Hiccups are an involuntary human action similar to yawns. C. The more an action can be studied, the easier it is to research. D. Finding out why humans yawn should be e

80、ding to a recent survey, about 85.8 percent of middle school students think that their handwriting is poor. Yet for various reasons, many students dont want to improve their handwriting. 51.5 percent of the students think that they can just use a computer, so there is no need to waste time improving
81、 their handwriting, and 32.2 percent believe that they are so busy with the study that they do not have time to practice. 10.9 percent think that practicing handwriting is useless. As the saying goes, writing style shows the man. Beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial, especially for middle school students. Therefore, in my opinion, more emphasis should be placed on this aspect in future.版权所有：高考资源网()版权所有：高考资源网()
