27、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A One day, a slave owner entered a local store and threatened a young boy who was his slave. At first, the slave refused to move and ran for the door. The slave owner reached for a heavy weight. He threw it at his slave. Instead, it hit Harriet on the head. Harriet almost died

28、. For the rest of her life, she carried the mark of a deep wound on her head. Miser Brodas felt he never needed Harriet. He decided to sell her. Harriet thought of a way to prevent this. Each time she was shown to someone who might buy her, she acted as if she were falling asleep. After a while, Mis

29、ter Brodas gave up the hope of selling Harriet. He sent her back to the fields. At 24 she married a free black man, John Tubman. By then, Harriet was sure she should escape. In 1849, Mister Brodas died. His slaves probably would be sold to further South. John Tubman tried to make Harriet forget abou

30、t running away. Harriet decided she must end her marriage and that she needed to tell her family that she was leaving. Harriet escaped for Pennsylvania where slavery was banned there. Once she hid under hay that had been cut from the fields. Another time, she wore mens clothing. Finally, she arrived

31、 in Pennsylvania. Now that Harriet was free, she didnt forget other slaves in Maryland. During the next ten years, she freed her parents and other family members. She traveled back and forth eighteen times, helping about 300 slaves escape. She became an expert at hiding from slave hunters. At one ti

32、me, anyone finding Harriet was promised 40,000dollars for catching herdead or alive. The people she helped called her Moses. She had rescued them from slavery just as the biblical Moses rescued the Jews. After the Civil War began, Harriet started to spy for the North. She also served as a nurse. Aft

33、er four years of bloody fighting, the North won the war. Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves in 1863. There was no longer any need for Harriet to be Moses.56.

37、e to a free womanB Pretending to be happy can actually make you more miserableespecially if youre a woman, according to a new study. Researchers found that walking around with a forced smile and faking(假装的)happiness simply led to people feeling gloomier. So, putting a brave face on your woes could a

38、ctually be counterproductive. The research found that women suffered more than men when pretending to be happy. Psychologist, Dr. Brent Scott, who led the study, said employers should take note because forcing workers to smile when workers were dealing with clients could backfire (产生事的愿违的不良后果). He s

39、aid:“Smiling for the sake of smiling can lead to emotional exhaustion, and thats bad for the organization.” Dr. Scott said the research showed customer service workers who“faked smiles”throughout a day worsened their moods and then withdrew from work, so their productivity dropped. He added:“Bosses

40、may think that getting their staff to smile is good for the organization, but thats not necessarily the case.”Dr. Scott, assistant professor of management at Michigan State University, analyzed a group of bus drivers during a two week period. The study is one of the first of its kind to examine emot

41、ional displays over a period of time and compare the different effects that they have on men and women. His team examined the effects of“surface acting”or fake smilingcompared to what was termed“deep acting”, or cultivating positive emotions by recalling pleasant memories.Dr. Scott said: “Women were

42、 harmed more bysurface acting, meaning their moods worsened even more than men and they withdrew more from work. However , they were helped more bydeep acting,which meant their moods improved more.”Dr. Scott suggested women tended to suffer more when pretending to be happy because they were expected

43、 to be more emotionally expressive than men. Therefore, faking a smile while they are feeling down is more likely to go against their normal behavior and cause more harmful feelings.Although,“deep acting”seemed to improve moods in the short term, Dr. Scott said it was not a long-term solution to fee

44、ling unhappy.He said:“Youre trying to cultivate positive emotions, but at the end of the day you may not feel like yourself any more”61. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Forcing one to smile could make one feel better B. Wearing a fake smile could worsen ones mood C. Always

45、smiling could improve ones performance D. Wearing a fake smile could help one free from sadness62. The finding of the research might serve as a warning to . A. men B. employees C. customers D. bosses63. According to Dr. Brent Scott, . A. most bus drivers have to wear“fake smiles” B. “fake smiles”wor

46、kers work better than usual C. “fake smiles”might lead to lower productivity D. bosses know the negative effect of forced smiles64. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that . A. pleasant memories are associated with positive feelings B. men suffer more from fake smiling, compared to women C. women s

47、hould smile a lot when faced with new challenges D. few employers know how to increase the productivity of their staff65.“Deep acting”is helpful to women in that . A. they forget their trouble B. they will behave normally C. they become more talkative D. their moods are getting betterC I live in the

48、 land of Disney, Hollywood and year-round sun. You may think people in such a splendid, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness. Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have littl

49、e or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more lasting emotion. Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and may

50、be even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends. I have often though that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous part

51、ies, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells“happiness”.But in memoir（回忆录）after memoir, they reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism ,drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children and profound loneliness. Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage, i

52、f hes honest, and he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment, for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features. Similarly, couples that choose not to have

53、 children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they can. Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three-day vacation. I dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe rai

54、sing children. Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating（解放性的）realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy c

55、lothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those rich and glamorous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.66. We can learn from the passage

56、 that . A. fun creates long-lasting satisfaction B. fun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happiness C. happiness is lasting whereas fun is short-lived D. fun that is long-standing may lead to happiness67. To the author, the role Hollywood stars play is to . A. write memoir after memoir about th

57、eir happiness B. tell the public that happiness has nothing to do with fun C. teach people how to enjoy their lives D. bring happiness to the public instead of going to parties68. In the authors opinion, marriage . A. affords greater fun B. leads to raising children C. indicates duty and devotion D.

58、 usually ends up in pain69.Which of the following is the best example of“painful happiness”? A. Winning lottery by accident B. A bachelor resisting marriage C. Raising children D. Buying some fancy clothes70. If one gets the true sense of happiness, he will . A. stop playing games and joking with ot

59、hers B. keep himself with his family C. give a free hand to money D. use his time to increase happinessD I always avoid going on field investigations with the toxics (毒物)team, unless its absolutely necessary. Its not that I mind the hard work, or am afraid of coming into contact with toxic substance

60、s. What I fear is quickly losing hope about the work I do. However, doing field research with the toxics team, all I see and feel is filthnothing else. Even if I close my eyes, I can smell the smell of food processing, rotting organic waste from paper mills and chemicals from clothing manufacturers.

61、 One morning, I went to investigate a discharged pipe to document and collect samples of pollutants secretly being emitted by a textile mill. I had to work with the utmost secrecy in order to avoid being discovered by the textile mill. I dipped a long measuring pole into the large polluting pipe to

62、measure the volume of polluted water being emitted. But the surface of the water, covered in oil and filth, made me feel as if to vomit. All of a sudden, I felt someone hit me on my back. It frightened me so much that I almost fell into the water. I grasped the pole and looked behind me to see an ol

63、d man standing there. He asked:“Can you catch fish here?”I realized that he thought I was holding a fishing pole, so I kept calm and said: “Yes, I heard that theres a kind of small fish living in this water, and it has medicinal benefits.” The old man grew quite curious and replied:“That may be. If

64、a fish can survive in water as dirty as this , it must have a lot of resistance. So it wouldnt be too strange if such fish had medicinal benefits.” It was clear he was just passing by, so I answered:“Yeah, survival of the fittest. Fish that adapt can survive, just like us humans.” He kept talking to

65、 me and didnt want to leave. He wanted to see whether or not I would catch the small fish with medicinal benefits.71. The text is mainly about . A. a research report about pollution B. an exciting experience of fishing C. an experience of doing research on pollution D. an unforgettable talk with an

A newspaper reporter. B. A researcher about pollution. C. A fisherman. D. A worker of the textile mill.74. Why did the write

67、r tell the old man he was fishing? A. Because he wanted to satisfy the old mans curiosity B. Because the old man was interested in fishing too C. Because he did the research secretly D. Because the old man wanted to buy the fish75. We can infer from the last paragraph that . A. the old man had found

68、 out the secret B. the old man wanted to catch the fish by himself C. the writer would have to tell the old man the fact D. the old man was sent to watch over the writer第 卷 (非选择题，共35分)第四部分: 写作 (共两节；满分35分)第一节 阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面的短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的词数要求）。 1 Electronic devices(装置)a

69、re changing the way people listen to music. But studies show the devices may be causing hearing loss in many people. Some experts say people may be playing them too loud and for too long. And experts say sound levels on these devices need to be set lower. 2 Researchers did a study with three hundred

70、 high school students and one thousand adults. They were asked about their use of portable music devices. Forty percent of the students and adults said they set the sound levels high on their players. But students were two times more likely to play the music at a very loud volume. More than half of

71、the students said they would not probably limit listening time. 3The study found that more than half of the students and less than forty percent of the adults had at least one kind of hearing loss. Some reported difficulty hearing parts of a discussion between two people. Others said they had to rai

72、se the volume on a television or radio to hear it better. And, some experienced ringing in their ears or other noises. 4Hearing experts say part of the problem is the listening equipment people are using. They say larger earphones that cover the whole ear are probably safer than smaller earphones th

80、 many students have iPods and think its a fashion to use them. Using an iPod , we can listen to music, download a lot of learning materials and read them on the screen.
