9、B. view the bay from the hillsideC. get everyday necessitiesD. relax yourself by readingBThirteen, for me, was a challenging year. My parents divorced and I moved to a new town with my father, far from my old family and friends. I was terribly lonely and would cry myself to sleep each night. To ease
10、 my sadness, my father purchased an old horse for me at a local auction. I named him Cowboy. Cowboy was undoubtedly the ugliest horse in the world. But I didnt care. I loved him beyond all reason. I joined a riding club and suffered rude comments and mean snickersabout Cowboys looks. I never let on
11、about how I felt, but deep inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode beautiful, registered horses. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were quickly shown the gate. No amount of preparation and love would turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chan
12、ce to compete would be in the speed events. I chose the jumping race. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. Needless to say, she didnt feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She didnt need to. I came in next to last. T
13、he stinging memory of Beckys smirks(得意的笑) made me determined to beat her. For the whole next month I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena. We practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home totally exhausted. All of our hard work di
14、dnt make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the course and finish in first place. My turn finally came. I put on my hat, rubbed Cowboys neck and entered the arena. At the signal, we dashed toward the fi
15、rst fence, jumped it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line. As we crossed the line the crowd was shocked into silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two second
16、s! I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds, Id always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it4. The underlined expression shown the gate (paragraph 4)most probably means _ .A. told how to enter the arenaB. shown
17、 how to make the horse beautifulC. removed from the competition earlyD. told to enter the timed-speed events5. Why was the writer not confident of victory? _ A. He was an inexperienced rider.B. He believed he was unpopular with the crowd.C. He had not practiced enough.D. He thought his horse wasnt a

19、ememberB. A Horses TaleC. Neck and NeckD. A Difficult AgeCScientists have developed a new type of smart bandage(绷带)that can signal the type of bacterial(细菌的)infection its protecting, just like a traffic light, as well as release the right type of drugs on demand. The traffic light system works just
20、like this: Green means no bacteria or a low concentration of bacteria, yellow means drug-sensitive (DS) bacteria responsive to standard antibiotics(抗生素)and causes antibiotic release, and red means drug-resistant (DR) bacteria that need extra help to be wiped out. In testing the bandage on mice, the
21、research team was able to successfully treat both DS and DR infections using the new method. However, the common methods of sensing resistance are limited by time, the requirement for professional personnel, and expensive instruments. Moreover, the abuse of antibiotics causes the accelerated process
22、 of bacterial resistance. Its easy to see how a simple bandage and light could overcome some of these limitations. Treatment doesnt have to wait for a doctor to make a diagnosis, and the bandage can get the right sort of drugs applied at the earliest opportunity. Whats more, the person wearing the b
23、andage gets real-time feedback on whats happening with the infection, if theres an infection at all. The researchers say it offers numerous benefits over existing treatments that make use of light, including photodynamic therapy or PDT. Weve been seeing quite a few upgrades to the traditional bandag
24、e in recent years, thanks to advances in science-like the nanofibre mesh that attracts bacteria and draws some of it out, speeding up the healing process. Then theres the novel bandage for treating bums, which stops bacteria from multiplying and lowers the risk of infection. The more work that a ban
25、dage can do while its protecting a wound, the better. Efforts to improve bandages continue and now weve got a bandage that not only releases antibiotics, but also tells the patient exactly whats going on too.8. What is the smart bandage mainly designed to do? _ A. Avoid the use of antibiotics.B. Cle
26、ar out harmful bacteria.C. Detect bacterial infections.D. Increase treatment options.9. What is the advantage of the smart bandage? _ A. It saves much time and cost.B. It removes the risk of infection.C. It prevents the bacterial resistance.D. It improves doctor-patient relationship.10. What can be
27、inferred from the last two paragraphs? _ A. Traditional bandages are out of use now.B. More smart bandages will be developed.C. Progress in science calls for more research.D. People are urged to study medical science.11. What does the text focus on? _ A. A successful test on mice.B. A colour changin
28、g bandageC. Sensing drug-resistant bacteria.D. Preventing abuse of antibiotics.DComedy and Psychology Earlier this year I did a part-time comedy course. The class was taught by Ryan, a professional comedian.I had performed a show, which wasnt originally meant to be a comedy. However, the audience la
29、ughed at my first joke, then continued to laugh throughout the routines that were meant to be serious. So it was the audience who told me I was funny, but I didnt understand why or how to control the comic (滑稽的) moments. So, I joined the course to learn. Turn off your editor that makes you say the r
30、ight thing and remember how to be a child, explained Ryan. Dont try to be clever. Dont try too hard to be funnyand knowing all about the theory of humor is unlikely to help you much. Just behave in a silly way. Thats what people want to see on stage.Ryan would help us loosen up by saying things like
31、, Wander around talking to others, but make sure that youre the lowest status person here. I d say that understanding the psychology of humor has actually helped. Recently I came across the book Inside Jokes: Using Humor to Reverse-Engineer the Mind. Its main idea is that any self-directed intellige
32、nt system will need to correct its own fault. Theres a risk that the occasional error will be made. If this was boring or burdensome, wed be less willing to do it. However, evolution has made the process fun. Heres a joke in the book: Two fish are in a tank. One says to the other, Do you know how to
33、 drive this thing? It works on the principle that we have started to imagine one thing-that the tank is the typical container people keep fish in-and, just in time, the following words tell us that our first assumption was wrong-its a heavy vehicle. For correctly figuring out the error, we are rewar
34、ded with a pleasurable feeling. The joke is an efficient way of encouraging this natural reaction, and comedians have become experts in slightly touching this mental funny-bone in order to make us laugh. Ryan was right when he said that knowing the theory of humor wouldnt help us that much as a come
35、dy.During one exercise in the course, four of us were told to perform an opera. Susan and Caroline sang earnestly on either side of the stage, and I brought Henry to the floor, where we wrestled (摔跤) each other like out-of-control teenagers. The rest of the group was in uncontrollable fits of laught
36、er. As a performer, I ll never appreciate just why it seemed so funny. But the point is that I would never have written this on the paper. It was a joyous, found moment.12. Why did the author attend the comedy course? _ A. He wanted to see how the theories worked in practice.B. He discovered he had
37、some natural ability in comedy.C. He worried about how other performers would find him.D. He got unpleasant experiences when performing a comedy.13. Ryan required the people on the comedy course to _ .A. copy their favorite performanceB. imagine other people s reactionsC. help themselves feel comfor
38、tableD. behave in a more playful manner14. What is the purpose of the joke mentioned in Paragraph 4? _ A. To discuss what humor brings about exactly.B. To give an example of another kind of humor.C. To prove the point about psychology of humor.D. To show why some people are funnier than others.15. W
39、hat view does the author put forward in the end? _ A. Visual humor is what appeals to people most.B. What people find funny is often unpredictable.C. Theories explaining humor tend to be mistaken.D. Learning comic skills proves to be a difficult task.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Are You a Prisoner of Perf
40、ection? Do you struggle for a goal that is beyond your reach?(1) _ Are you setting yourself up for failure and shame when you cant achieve the unachievable? Understanding what drives perfectionism is the first step toward releasing this self-created anchor that keeps us stuck Shame and fear are ofte
41、n the hidden drivers of perfectionism. We believe that if we can fashion a perfectly polished personality, flash our intelligence, and perfect our humour, then no one can hurt us with criticism and well win respect and approval. ( 2) _ Politicians who display a desperate need to be right and refuse
42、to acknowledge mistakes or uncertainty are often driven by a secret shame. They fear that showing vulnerability(弱点) will expose them to the accusation that theyre weak. They stick to a desire to be right, perfect, and polished, even when its obvious that the emperor has no clothes. Perfectionism kee
43、ps us leaning toward the future. Were constantly evaluating ourselves in order to do better.(3) _ However, if we cant relax and enjoy lighter moments, then we become prisoners of our perfectionism. We get painfully self-conscious and take ourselves too seriously. Sadly, we deprive(剥夺) ourselves of t
44、he simple pleasure of enjoying the moment and being ourselves. ( 4) _ We realize that failing at any enterprise doesnt mean that we are a failure. Without failures, well never learn from our mistakes; well never move forward in our lives. Those who succeed have made countless mistakes. The important
45、 thing is to learn from our error, forgive ourselves and move on. Being human, perfection is impossible.(5) _ Releasing ourselves from the desire to protect our image, were freed to sail gracefully through our successes and failures-and enjoy our precious life. A. Do you hold an idealized vision tha
