A smaller number of people are killed after contact with power

10、 lines outside the home. Electric shocks can cause a persons heart or breathing to stop, can also cause burns and are potentially fatal. It is essential for people to learn basic first aid techniques to deal with such emergencies.What to do? If you are the first person to reach someone who has had a

11、n electric shock, dont touch them! If they are still holding the appliance that has given them shock (e.g. a hair dryer), unplug it or turn off the power at its source. Under no circumstances will you try to move the appliance with your hand! If you cant turn off the power, use a piece of wood, like

12、 a broom handle or a chair, to separate the victim from the appliance or the power source. You may even be able to do this with a folded newspaper. The victim must remain lying down. If they are unconscious, victims should be placed on their side. But they should not be moved if there is a possibili

13、ty of neck or spine injuries unless it is absolutely necessary. It is essential to maintain the victims body heat, so make sure you cover him or her with a blanket before you do anything else. If the victim is not breathing, apply mouth-to-mouth resuscitation(恢复呼吸). Keep the victims head low until p

14、rofessional help arrives. If the electric shock has been caused by an external power line, the dangers to the victim and to anybody providing first aid are much greater.21What kind of passage is it?A. An advertisement. B. A horror story.C. A news report. D. First aid emergency advice.22The underline

15、d sentence, “Under no circumstances will you try to move the appliance with your hand!” implies that .A. you should move the appliance that caused itB. you should pick up the appliance and turn off the electricityC. it is very dangerous to touch the appliance with your handsD. it is unnecessary to u

18、ally keep people on their feet longer, and that scientists say, has substantial health benefits.Analyzing the human walk, biomedical engineers Steven Collins and Greg Sawicki concluded that our ankles and calves perform motions similar to a spring coupled with a clutch that intermittently stores and

19、 releases energy.Sawicki, from the University of North Carolina, explained whats involved.“We found in basic science experiments that that system, your calf and Achilles tendon, works a lot like a catapult. So, the muscle holds on to the tendon and your body actually stretches your Achilles tendon q

20、uite a bit and then stores the energy in the tissue and then its given back to propel you forward in the world,” he said.Sawicki said he and his colleague Steven Collins at Carnegie Mellon University designed a mechanical device, made of carbon fiber and metal, that performs the same sequence of ene

21、rgy give-and-take outside the body. The system takes over part of the work of walking, and reduces the amount of required energy by as much as seven percent.Wearing the unpowered ankle exoskeleton can help people either walk farther with the same amount of energy, or restore the normal movement patt

22、ern for people who have trouble walking.Sawicki said it takes only a few minutes to get used to the exoskeleton but the wearer quickly learns to tone down the muscle energy as the device takes over part of the load.“You really dont notice it until when you take it off. And when you take it off you r

23、ealize that it was there and giving you the boost,” he said.Sawicki added that the device is primarily intended for people recovering from surgery or a stroke. But all persons who spend a lot of time walking, such as police officers or hospital personnel, could benefit from it.At the moment there ar

24、e no plans to develop the ankle exoskeleton for the market, but the inventors say some manufacturers have expressed interest.25Whats the main idea of the passage?A. How to reduce energy whiling walking.B. Ways to make walking easy.C. Introduction to a mechanical device to make walk easierD. Guidelin

The ankle exoskeleton hasnt appeal to manufacturers.C. The ankle exoskeleton will be launched in the mar

27、ket soon.D. The ankle exoskeleton will never be produced.As the new semester begins, millions of college students across the country are trying hard to remember how best to write a paper or, more likely, how best to delay that paper. Procrastination is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer

28、form it. They can spend whole days in the library doing nothing but staring into space, eating snacks, surfing the Internet, watching videos and looking at other students sitting around them, who, most likely are doing nothing either. Paralyzed (使失去活力) by their habit to procrastinate, they write mic

29、ro blogs about their fears, asking their online friends if they sometimes have the same issue. But this does nothing to break the spell (魔咒). According to a recent report, 95 percent of us procrastinate at some point and 20 percent of the worlds population are always procrastinating. The figures are

30、 disappointing. Procrastinators are less wealthy, less healthy and less happy than those who dont delay. Procrastinators like to find excuses to justify their behavior, but BBC columnist Rowan Pelling says they are all wrong. Many procrastinators tell themselves they are perfectionists who work best

31、 under pressure. Pelling says this is non sense, as work done at the last minute is more likely to have mistakes than work done on time. The behavior of procrastinators often makes them feel ashamed, inconveniences others and annoys loved ones. Pelling also points out that procrastination feels part

32、icularly delinquent（过失的） in a society that thinks of speedy action as admirable, and, at times, even as a moral good. Fortunately, social scientists have thrown their weight behind efforts to understand this behavioral mistake and offer strategies to control it. Piers Steel, a Canadian social scient

33、ist and author of The Procrastination Equation, believes human is “designed” to procrastinate. Nevertheless, he suggests a couple of good ways to get through the task at hand. 29Which behavior belongs to procrastination?A. Never dream away the time.B. Always complete the tasks ahead of time.C. Never

34、 put off till tomorrow what should be done today.D. Always wait to work until the “good mood” or “good time”.30According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. Procrastination makes people waste their time.B. Speedy action is considered as a moral standard in the society.C.

35、 procrastinators usually complete their tasks perfectly.D. Procrastination is common among people.31What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows? A. Ways to handle the study pressures.B. Introduction to the book The Procrastination Equation.C. More examples to illustrate procras

36、tinationD. Measures to deal with procrastination.Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently its because we have mirror neurons (神经元）in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror

37、 neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate (模仿)it，whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further： mirror neurons not only appear to exp

38、lain physical actions y they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researcher

39、s have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to ( for example ：The hand took hold of the ball ) , the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actuall

40、y taking hold of a ball).Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much researeh suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find

41、treatments for social disorders.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动）.Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物）for ncurosciencc of what Einsteins theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you f

42、eel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does-well，perhaps youll understand why.32Mirror neurons can explain .A.why we cry when we are hurtB. why we cough when we suffer from a coldC.why we smile when we see someone else smileD.why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late33The unde

43、rlined word triggered in the third paragraph probably means “A. set offB. cut offC. built upD. broken up34We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons.A.relate to human behavior and interactionB. control human physical actions and feelingsC.result in bad behavior and social disordersD.determine

44、 our knowledge and language abilities35What is the passage mainly about?A.Ways to find mirror neurons.B. Problems of mirror neurons.C.Existence of mirror neurons.D.Functions of mirror neurons.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。（每小题分，满分10分）My mother is a diligent and kind w
