第三部分:阅读理解(共 20 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 40 分)
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上
将该项涂黑。
A
I believe that my country, Poland, is a perfect example for a place where food
is particularly important. When we were little children, we began to understand how
much a loaf of bread meant to our parents—to some it might sound silly but for me
the custom of kissing bread before you started cutting it was simply amazing. It's
not so common nowadays to treat food that way, since you hardly ever bake your own
bread. Besides, everyone would call you crazy if you tried to kiss every bread roll
before you ate them! But though we no longer make our food from scratch (起点), some
customs have been kept--that's why I feel so sorry every time I have to throw any
food away—even though I no longer live with my parents and nobody would blame me
for this anymore!
Many people of our nation are still working as farmers, eating what they grow
and harvest and therefore enjoying everything more. It's widely known that you value
more anything that needs your effort in the first place. In most homes in Poland,
especially those of farmers, the whole family would try and have their meals
together--extremely difficult now, but so rewarding (值得) ! You can share other
members' troubles and successes, give your children some attention, or just sit down
for a moment instead of rushing through life aimlessly. Furthermore, your body, and
stomach in particular will be very grateful (感激) for such a time!
In Poland, a wedding, Christmas or even a birthday is celebrated with a great
meal. Women in the house get together and cook, sometimes for a few days before the
event, and the extremely good or unusual food will be remembered and widely talked
about.
You cannot over-value the importance of food in the country. What's more, almost
everyone in Poland will be as interested in the topic as I am.
56. When the writer was a child, he / she ________.
B.
A. found people were crazy about bread
began
to
realize
the
importance of food
C. thought that cutting bread was amazing
D.
learned
people
hardly
baked their own bread
57. The writer feels very sorry when he/she has to throw away any food because
A. he/she makes food from scratch
B. his/her parents would blame
him/her
C. some customs still have effect on him/her
D. many people are still
working hard as farmers
58. From the text, we can learn that, in Poland, ________.
A. most meals can be interesting topics for a long time
B. the whole family often have meals together nowadays
C. it's common for women to get together to cook for a few days
D. family members can know more. about each other by having meals together
B
Jim suffered heart problems. In conversation he expressed little joy and it
seemed that his life was drawing to a close.
When his heart problems led to operation, Jim went through it successfully, and
a full recovery was expected. Within days, however, his heart was not beating
properly. Jim was rushed back to operation, but nothing was found to explain the
cause of his illness. He died on the operating table on the day before his 48th
birthday.
Dr. Bruce Smoller, a psychologist (心理学家), had had many conversations with
him, and the more he learned, the stranger he realized Jim's case was. When Jim was
a child, his father, a teacher, suffered a heart attack and stayed home to recover.
One morning Jim asked his father to look over his homework, promising to come home
from school at noon to pick it up. His father agreed, but when Jim returned his father
had died. Jim's father was 48.
"I think all his life Jim believed he killed his father," Dr. Smoller says. "He
felt that if he had not asked him to look at his homework, his father would have
lived. Jim had been troubled by the idea. The operation was the trial (判决) he had
expected for forty years. " Smoller believes that Jim willed himself not to live
to the age of 48.
Jim's case shows the powerful role that attitude (态度) plays in physical health,
and that childhood experiences produce far-reaching effect on the health of
grown-ups. Although most cases are less direct than Jim's, studies show that
childhood events, besides genes, may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer,
heart disease and mental illness.
59. Jim was sent back to operation because ________.
A. his heart didn't work well
C. his life was drawing to a close
B. he expected a full recovery
D. the first one wasn't well performed
60. What made Dr. Smoller feel strange about Jim's case?
A. Jim died at a young age.
B. Jim died on the operating table.
C. Both Jim and his father died of the same disease.
D. Jim's death is closely connected with his father's.
61. From Smoller's words, we can infer that ________.
A. Jim's father cared little about his study
B. Smoller agreed that Jim did kill his father
C. Jim thought he would be punished some day
D. Smoller believed Jim wouldn't live to the age of 48
62. Which of the following could have strong effect on one's physical health
according to the text.?
a. One's genes.
d. The date of one's birthday.
e. The opinions one has about something.
b. One's life in childhood.
c. One's physical education.
A. a, b, d
B. a, b, e
C. a, c, e
D. b, c, d
C
It's great fun to explore (探索) new places—it feels like an adventure, even
when you know you're not the first to have been there. But make sure not to get lost
or waste time going round in circles.
● Do the map reading if you're being driven somewhere. It'll be easier
if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you' re traveling
in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning
before having to make a turn, or you'll have to move to the back seat.
● Get a group of friends together and go exploring. You'll need a good
map, a compass (指南针), a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in
case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies (应急现金).
Tell someone where you're going before you set out and let them know
what time you expect to be back. The test is in not getting lost, not
in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for
slower friends to catch up.
● See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in
which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done
as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C,
etc. ) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. Either
way, it's not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit.
63. Sitting beside the driver, you should ________.
A. direct the driver when necessary
B. look ahead to see where there's a turn
C. move to the back seat if feeling uncomfortable
D. keep looking at the map to find a place to go to
64. Why do you need to tell someone your exploration plan before setting out?
A. To get information when in danger.
B. To be saved in case of an accident.
C. To share the fun with him/her in exploration.
D. To tell him/her what's going on with the group members.
65. Orienteering activities can ________.
A. make people work fast
C. help people organize other activities
B. help people stay healthy
D. make people get prepared
for sports
D
Sorry to say, our brains naturally start slowing down at the Cruelty young age
of 30. It used to be thought that this couldn't be helped, but new studies show that
people of any age can train their brains to work faster. "Your brain is a learning
machine," says University of California scientist Dr. Michael Merzenich. Given the
right tools, we can train our brains to act like they did when we were younger. All
that's required is the practice designed just for the purpose: a few exercises for
the mind.
Merzenich has developed a computer-based training method to speed up the
process(过程)
in which the brain deals with information
(positscience.com). Since much of the data we receive comes through speech, the Brain
Fitness Program works with language and hearing to better speed and accuracy (准
确性).
Over the course of training, the program starts asking you to distinguish (辨
别) sounds (between "dog" and "bog", for example) at an increasingly faster speed.
It's a bit like tennis instructor, says Merzenich, hitting balls at you ~faster and
faster to keep you challenged(受到挑战). You may start out slow, but before long
you're pretty quick.
The biggest finding in brain research in the last ten years is that the brain
at any age is highly plastic. If you ask your brain to learn, it will learn. And
it may even speed up while in the process.
To keep your brain young and plastic you can do one of a million new activities
that challenge and excite you: playing table tennis or bridge, doing crossword
puzzles, learning a language.... "When it comes to preventing ageing, you really
do 'use it or lose it' ," says Barbara Sahakian, professor at Cambridge University.
67. Dr. Merzenich’s training method mainly depends on ________.
A. speech training
C. the activities one joins in
D. the information being dealt with
68. By saying "the brain at any age is highly plastic ", the writer probably means
the brain can be______.
B. computer languages
A. used
B. mastered
69. What can we learn from the text?
C. developed
D. researched
A. Practice makes a quick mind.
B. Brain research started ten yeas ago.
C. Dr. Merzenich is a scientist in computer,
