Not a big deal第二节 完型填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）When I was young I loved taking part in high school musicalsI loved to 36 in front of hundreds of peopleIn one production, I auditioned（试音）like 37 else. My music teacher was 38 that I would get a particular part in the music drama. The part I thought I ha
19、d was a 39 lead who sang some of the most beautiful love songs.But one day the show director pulled me aside. I was 40 to be offered the leading role. To my disappointment, he said, “Bob, I found a boy with an excellent voice. I need to give the 41 to him.”From that moment on I began hating music cl
20、ass. I 42 that I didnt like what we were singing. My music teacher didnt know why. She 43 me in front of the class and told me I had changed. She didnt know what I had been told. But when they 44 the finalists, I was given a 45 role. For some time my pride was 46 with having to do something I didnt
21、think I should be doing. But I did it. The minor role I had 47 to be much more fun than I had expected. My performance even 48 my brother who was also in the audience.Life is really like a 49 and although we do not audition for the role, each of us is 50 by the director to play a certain part in it.
22、 The 51 is that we sometimes dont like the part we are given. Like me in high school I became 52 -if I couldnt be the lead, I wouldnt show up for rehearsal（彩排）.Then we wonder why we feel so 53 . Sometimes we dont even feel like we are a part of the “Big Show. ” Everyone does indeed have a role. Some

27、t of ordering too much food in restaurants because a lot of that food ended up being wasted. Holiday eaters were urged to “clean their plates” and were asked to take leftover food home in “doggy bags.”The impetus behind the campaign was the startling government statistic that over 200 billion yuan i
28、s spent every year on food that ends up in the garbage bin. And in the midst of all this waste, statistics show that 128 million people are living below the poverty line and going hungry.The “clean your plate” campaign is part of a worldwide effort to stop precious food from being wasted. The United
29、 Nations estimates that $1trillion (yes, thats a very big number) worth of food is wasted each year. Most of that is lost during food production and transportation, but a significant percentage is attributed to waste by consumers. The United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) has launched a campaign
30、 called “Think. Eat. Save.” to make people aware of the problem.Chinese actress Fan Bingbing is an ambassador for UNEP and she encouraged people to upload pictures of their “clean plates” to show their support for the program. Thousands of people responded and demonstrated that they had a clear cons
31、cience to go along with their full stomachs.Xi Jinping, the incoming Chinese president, is also urging people to be less wasteful and he told Party members to cut back on extravagant holiday banquets and to be more careful when spending the peoples money.For some, though, Xi Jinpings and Fan Bingbin
32、gs admonitions dont go far enough. Yuan Longping, an agricultural scientist, caused a stir by saying that wasting food should be treated as a crime. (Jail time for leftover chicken feet!?)If not a crime, wasting food is certainly a sin and it goes against what Xi Jinping calls, “the Chinese traditio
33、n of being diligent and thrifty.” Having a “clean plate” is just a traditional and responsible thing to do. 56. Which statement is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Over 200 billion yuan is wasted every year on food around China.B. Its quite common for Chinese people to order more food than they
34、need in restaurants.C. Its universally acknowledged that wasting food is a crimeD. Fan did something to promote peoples awareness of saving food.（B）If it really is whats on the inside that counts, then a lot of thin people might be in trouble.Some doctors now think that the internal(内部的) fat surroun
35、ding important organs like the heart or liver could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily. “Being thin doesnt surely mean you are not fat,” said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College. Since 1994, Bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with MRI machines to create
36、“fat maps” showing where people store fat.According to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits of internal fat, even if they are slim.Even people with normal Body Mass Index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside.
37、 Of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal BMI scores (20 to 25) actually had too high levels of internal fat. Among men, the percentage was nearly 60 percent.According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat. They eat too many fatty and sugary
38、foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat. Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere.Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabe
39、tes. They want to prove that internal fat damages the bodys communication systems.The good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet. “If you want to be healthy, there is no short cut. Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,” B
40、ell said.58. According to the pass age, which of the following is WRONG?A. People with heart disease all have internal fat.B. People can get rid of internal fat by improving diet.C. Men are more likely to have too much internal fat.D. Exercise can help to reduce the internal fat.59. From the last pa
41、ragraph, we can find that _.A. whether internal fat can lead to disease has been provedB. exercise plays an important role in peoples life for keeping healthyC. thin people usually have internal fat even if they are slimD. it is easier to burn off internal fat than external fat60. Doctors have found
42、 _.A. the exact dangers of internal fatB. internal fat is the cause of heart disease and diabetesC. being slim doesnt mean you are not fat insideD. being slim is not dangerous at all61. The underlined part in the last paragraph means _.A. a long road B. a clear differenceC. an easy way D. a short di
43、stance(C)Chinese writer Mo Yans Nobel Prize for Literature might ignite an explosion of global interest in Chinese literature and lead to more titles translated into English, European experts say.“Hopefully, the award means more people will read Chinese literature and more works will get translated,
44、” says Michel Hockx, professor of the Languages and Cultures of China and Inner Asia from University of London. “Many very good Chinese writers have been accepted globally for a long time already. Mo Yan is probably the most translated Chinese writer alive, with at least five of his novels made avai
45、lable in English over the past 20 years.”Jonathan Ruppin, web editor of bookseller Foyles, says Mos win coincides with growing interest in Chinese literature and recognizes the talents of a distinctive and visionary（富于幻想的）writer. “We are very excited by the fact that English translations of more of
46、his books should now become available,” Ruppin says. He made the comment after Mo became the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in its century-long history.As East-West cultural exchange has been booming, Chinese literature has been attracting growing attention in recent yea
47、rs. Hockx explains, “Its mainly because there are many more opportunities for Chinese writers to visit other countries, to publish their works outside China and to interact with readers abroad. At the same time, more and more people globally are learning Chinese and taking an interest in the Chinese
48、 language and culture.”University of Oxford lecturer in modern Chinese literature Margaret Hillenbrand says, “The obvious reason for the growing global presence of Chinese literature is the growing global presence of China itself. People have come to realize that there is a serious knowledge deficit
49、 between China and its international counterparts in particular, China knows incomparably more about Europe and America than the other way round and reading Chinese literature is an effective, simple means of solving that gap.”62. The underlined word “ignite” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_”.A. sta
50、rt out B. burn up C. set off D. appeal to63. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Chinese literature has spread with the development of China.B. The Nobel Prize for Literature has a history of hundreds of years.C. In the past, no Chinese writers were accepted outside China.D. F
51、oreigners know about China mainly by reading Mo Yans works.64. Chinese literature has been attracting growing attention mainly be causeA. Chinese writers have been writing more and more books in EnglishB. the Chinese language has become the most widely used language in the worldC. the Chinese govern
52、ment attaches great importance to literatureD. the cultural communication between China and western countries has developed65. How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?A. China knows more about Europe and America than before.B. China knows more about Europe and America tha
53、n they know about China.C. China, Europe and America know one another more than before.D. Compared with America, China knows more about Europe.(D)The malls were filled with people seeking gifts for their loved ones. Some of the malls remained open around the clock, partly to satisfy our needs to buy
54、 gifts. Behind the materialistic aspect of shopping for gifts lies the idea of caring, being attentive to the desires of special people in our lives. However, to use a well-worn play on words: it is our presence, not our presents, that truly counts. Many of us, unfortunately, can be so inattentive,
55、even in the presence of our loved ones, that we might as well not be there at all.Attention is one of the greatest gifts we can give each other. Companies around the globe spend billions every year on advertising to catch our attention for just a short moment at a time. Whole industries media, enter
56、tainment, education rely on the precious gift of our attention for their continued existence. A baby lacking attention for a long time is likely to he psychologically unhealthy.In earlier times, both diet and attention could be left unregulated without major cause for concern. There were natural che
57、cks and balances: limited availability of food meant few got fat, for example. Similarly, in bygone times we might have spent a few hours communicating with the village storyteller, today, watching an entire TV series, while speaking to nobody, is common. In traditional societies, with smaller popul
58、ation, everyone would get a fair deal of attention. On many issues we might go to see Grandma or Grandpa; now we have Google and Wikipedia.“She just wants attention.” people tend to think little of those doing things simply for attention. But the truth is that human beings need attention, and giving
59、 attention to each other is, to a large extent, what human civilization is based upon. This perhaps explains the runaway success（一举成功）of social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook. While we use such sites for “micro blogging”, “idea voicing” and “status updates” the reality is that we are
60、often doing no more or less than fulfilling our basic human drive for attention exchange.I friend you, you friend me, I retweet you, you retweet me. The charming case with which we can now get and give attention is why many people appear overly attached to their smart phones. It is also a vicious（恶性
61、）circle. As ever more people are busy exchanging attention online, there is increasingly less attention to be paid in the real world, which forces more people to seek their attention exchange online, or else risk attention-starvation.The very nature of attention exchange is being rapidly transformed
62、, and there is a danger that some of us will develop unhealthy practices. Just as eating red meat every day is a bad idea, so it is with too much attention exchange. The biological consequences of our technological advancement in food production are highly visible; heart disease, diabetes and obesit
63、y. The consequences of our transformed attention exchanges will be psychological and social, and so may take longer to identify, but they will be equally damaging.Face-to-face attention is becoming rarer, and therefore more valuable. In a sense it is priceless. And it is a gift that can be given all

68、attention to the growing number of sleep problems worldwide. Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world ignore its importance. As a result, sleep problems are increasingly common. 学In 2002, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece conducted a survey of over 35
69、,000 people in 10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Of the people that responded to the survey, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, and based on their responses, 31.6 percent were diagnosed with insomnia and another 17.5 percent were diagnosed with bord
70、erline insomnia(失眠). In addition, 30.7 percent of survey respondents reported visiting a doctor for help with sleep problems and 11.6 per cent said that they felt very sleepy during the day. Overall, the survey found that many people suffer the effects of poor quality sleep, some examples of which a
71、re being unable to fall asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. The main factors causing these problems are pressure from school or work and a fast pace of life, but noise pollution and light pollution also interfere with sleep and contribute to poor quality sleep. The surveys findings are
72、particularly troubling because large numbers of people were found to have difficulty sleeping at night. The short-term effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating. If this happens for a long time, the risk of gaining weight and having a heart attack may increase. There are many things yo
73、u can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. You also need to make your bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you should also av
