All that driving was really a trouble.Text 10Everybody needs sleep so that their bodies can make up the energy used in the day. Growth takes place mainly

21、when we are sleeping. Children need more sleep than grownups because they are still growing. Newborn babies sleep nearly all the time except when they are being fed. Although we are not conscious of anything when we are asleep, sometimes we dream. Often strange things seem to be happening to us. Dre

22、ams are a mixture of our fears and hopes and what we have done and thought. Sleep and dreams affect our moods and the moods affect our performance throughout the day. Generally, we will feel happier in the day if we sleep well at night.第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选

23、项中，选出最佳选项。AWith over 2.4 millon visitors every year，Cinque Terre is one of the mostvisited regions in Italy. Cinque Terre is truly special. The five candycolored fishing villages of Riomaggiore，Manarola，Corniglia，Vernazza，and Monterosso al Mare are built into cliffs over the clean and brightlyshinin

24、g Ligurian Sea. Whether youre visiting the region for a few days or a few weeks，these are the experiences you should add to your trip pleasure.Take a scenic hike.Its easy to visit each of the attractive villages on foot. The most popular hike is the coastal path Sentiero Azzuro. It links all five vi

25、llages and offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea，architecture and vineyards(葡萄园). It takes about six hours to go across，with short breaks，but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming.Eat seafood in a cone(锥形蛋卷筒)Dessert lovers might think that Italian icecream is th

26、e best thing to be served in a cone but makes room for seafood cones as well. Thanks to its coastal location, Cinque Terre is full of seafood restaurants.Get on a boat.If the weather cooperates, take the time to get out on the water. The villages look very beautiful from a boat. The cheapest and eas

27、iest way is to jump on the public ferry from one of the villages to the next, but these boats are often crowded. Its far more relaxing to take a private cruise, which departs from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, and Monterosso al Mare.Take the train.Cinque Terres train system is one of

28、 the most scenic in Europe. The highspeed train runs through each of the five villages every 20 minutes or so. And the whole line is directly on the coast, offering lovely views of the Ligurian Sea and rocky cliffs.这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了里奥马吉奥尔、马纳罗拉、科尔尼利亚、韦尔纳扎和蒙特罗索五个渔村的特点以及到这里旅游的一些方式。21What is special about t

29、he five candycolored fishing villages?ATheir special location. BTheir long history.CTheir delicious foods. DTheir friendly villagers.答案：A解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Cinque Terre is truly special. The five candycolored fishing villages of Riomaggiore，Manarola，Corniglia，Vernazza，and Monterosso al Mare are built

30、into cliffs over the clean and brightlyshining Ligurian Sea”可知，五渔村真的很特别。里奥马吉奥尔、马纳罗拉、科尔尼利亚、韦尔纳扎和蒙特罗索等五个渔村被建在利古里亚海边的悬崖上。由此可知，五个渔村的特殊之处在于它们的特殊位置。故A选项正确。22What is the favorite food for the dessert lovers in the five villages?AItalian noodles. BItalian icecream.CItalian wines. DSeafood cones.答案：D解析：细节理解题

31、。根据第三段中的“Dessert lovers might think that Italian icecream is the best thing to be served in a cone but makes room for seafood cones as well”可知，喜欢吃甜点的人可能会认为装在圆锥形蛋卷筒里的意大利冰激凌是最好的食物，但是它也要为海鲜锥形蛋卷筒(seafood cones)让路。这说明seafood cones更受甜品爱好者们的喜爱。故D选项正确。23What is the best way to enjoy the beautiful scenery an

32、d delicious food?ATaking a private ferry to the villages.BWalking with short breaks on the coast.CTaking a scenic hike along the coastal path.DTaking the train running through the villages.答案：C解析：推理判断题。文章一共介绍了三种方式：take a scenic hike，get on a boat，take the train。根据第二段中的“It links all five villages and

33、 offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea，architecture and vineyards (葡萄园). It takes about six hours to go across，with short breaks，but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming”可知，徒步观光旅游不仅可以欣赏美丽的景色而且还可以随时停下来享受美食。根据倒数第二段中的“Its far more relaxing to take a private cruise

34、, which departs from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, 和Monterosso al Mare”可知，乘坐私人游轮比乘坐公共游轮更放松。游轮从Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, and Monterosso al Mare的码头出发，而不是到达这几个村子。故可排除A选项。最后一段提到的乘火车旅行，它不能随时停靠，不能和徒步观光相比。故综上，徒步观光是最好的方式。故C选项正确。BMichigan State University researchers studied laptop use

35、 in an introductory psychology course and found the average time spent surfing the Internet for nonclassrelated purposes was 37 minutes. Students spent the most time on social media, reading email, online shopping for items and watching videos.Their academic performance suffered. Internet use was a

36、significant predictor of students final exam scores even when their intelligence and motivation were taken into account, said lead author Susan Ravizza. “The detrimental relationship associated with nonacademic Internet use raises debates about the policy of encouraging students to bring their lapto

37、ps to class when they are unnecessary for class use.”The research was conducted in a onehour lecture course with 507 students. In all, 127 students agreed to participate in the study, and they were monitored when they went online. Of those participants, 83 went on the Internet for nonclassrelated pu

38、rposes in more than half of the 15 lessons during the term and were included in the final analysis. Intelligence was measured by ACT scores. Motivation to succeed in class was measured by an online survey sent to each participant when the term was over.Interestingly, using the Internet for class pur

39、poses did not help students test scores. But Ravizza said she wasnt surprised. “There were no Internetbased assignments in this course, which means that most of the academic use was downloading lecture slides in order to follow along or take notes.”“Previous research has shown that taking notes on a

40、 laptop is not as beneficial for learning as writing notes by hand. Once students open their laptops, it is probably fascinating to do other sorts of Internetbased tasks that are not classrelevant.”In her courses, Ravizza has stopped posting lecture slides before class. Instead, she waits until the

41、week before the exam to upload them so there is no reason for students to bring a laptop to class. “I now ask students to sit in the back if they want to bring their laptops to class so their Internet use is not distracting other students.”本文是一篇说明文。文章叙述了学生带笔记本电脑进课堂的弊端，呼吁在课堂上限制笔记本电脑的使用。24According to

42、 the text, when students brought laptops to class, they _.Agot tired of their lessonsBspent less time studyingCwere willing to take notesDincrease motivation to study答案：B解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中found the average time spent surfing the Internet for nonclassrelated purposes was 37 minutes. Students spent the m

43、ost time on social media, reading email, online shopping for items and watching videos.“研究发现，学生花在与上课无关的网上的平均时间为37分钟。学生们花在社交媒体、阅读电子邮件、网上购物和看视频上的时间最多。”由此可知，当学生把笔记本电脑带到课堂上，他们花在学习上的时间更少。故选B。25What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 2 mean?AWeak. BHarmful.CUnfair. DNormal.答案：B解析：词义猜测题。根据

44、第二段中The detrimental relationship associated with nonacademic Internet use raises debates about the policy of encouraging students to bring their laptops to class when they are unnecessary for class use.“与非学术性互联网使用相关的有害关系引发了关于鼓励学生在不需要笔记本电脑上课的情况下而携带它们上课的政策的辩论。”由此推知画线词的意思是“有害的，消极的”。故选B。26How is Para. 3

45、 developed?ABy analyzing causes and results.BBy listing a series of advantages.CBy providing a specific example.DBy describing an experimental process.答案：D解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中The research was conducted in a onehour lecture course with 507 students. In all, 127 students agreed to participate in the study,

46、 and they were monitored when they went online. Of those participants, 83 went on the Internet for nonclassrelated purposes in more than half of the 15 lessons during the term and were included in the final analysis.“本研究以507名学生为研究对象，进行了一小时的课堂教学。共有127名学生同意参与这项研究，他们在上网时受到了监控。在这些参与者中，83人在学期的15节课中有超过一半时

47、间的上网内容与课堂无关，并被纳入最终分析。”可知，第三段是在描述一个实验过程。故选D。27What is the authors purpose of writing this text?ATo call for the limitation of laptops in class.BTo encourage students to take notes by hand.CTo introduce the benefits of using laptops in class.DTo show the best way to download lecture slides in class.答案

48、：A解析：目的意图题。根据最后一段中I now ask students to sit in the back if they want to bring their laptops to class so their Internet use is not distracting other students.“如果学生们想带笔记本电脑来上课，我现在让他们坐在后排，这样他们上网就不会分散其他学生的注意力。”可知本文呼吁在课堂上限制笔记本电脑的使用。故选A。CWhen people find themselves in difficult conflicts, they often turn

49、to mediation(调解). Mediators are advised to listen attentively, avoid favoring the ideas of one party, and make both sides feel at ease. Surprisingly, new research that my colleagues and I conducted suggests that, to effectively help people settle their conflicts, mediators should adopt an hostile (敌

50、对的) attitude rather than a calming one. A hostile mediator, we find, brings better results than a nice one.Why would adding more negativity to an already hostile situation prove beneficial? Consider how parents typically react when they cant get their children to stop quarreling: “I dont care who st

51、arted itboth of you, go to your rooms！” At first sight, a calm mediator seems likely to be more effective. But as anyone with brothers or sisters knows, parents seemingly unsympathetic treatment of the situation can have an unusual effect. Children who were troubling each other just now suddenly bec

52、ome more reasonable due to their unkind parents. In our research, we created situations in which pairs of negotiators were part of a heated conflict. In some cases, the mediator had a “nice” approachcalm and polite. In others, he was hostileaggressive and somewhat rude. Across different types of con

53、flicts, we found that negotiators were more willing and able to reach an agreement in the presence of a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one.The main result of the test is not that hostility pays off. In fact, recent research has documented the social costs of negative behavior. For e

54、xample, being the target of rude behavior reduces peoples performance on a variety of tasks. Other research shows the social benefits of positive behavior. People are more likely to close deals and become future business partners.Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and cost

55、s of negative behavior, hostility can pay off in certain situations.本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是当人们发现自己陷入困难的冲突时，往往求助于调解。作为调解员要认真听取意见，避免偏袒一方的意见，使双方感到放心。为了有效地帮助人们解决冲突，调解员应该采取敌对的态度，而不是平静的态度，我们发现，敌对的调解人会带来比较好的结果。28What can we learn about parents settlement of conflicts in Paragraph 2?AIts calming and wise.BIts unfri

56、endly but effective.CIts commonly adopted.DIt harms family relationship.答案：B解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中Across different types of conflicts, we found that negotiators were more willing and able to reach an agreement in the presence of a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one.“在不同类型冲突中，我们发现谈判者在有敌意的调停

57、者面前比在友好的调停者面前更愿意也更有能力达成协议。”可知，关于父母如何解决冲突，我们可以从第二段中了解到这是不友好的但有效。故选B。29How does the author support his viewpoints?ABy presenting facts.BBy making comparison.CBy analyzing causes and effects.DBy giving examples and experimenting.答案：D解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中In our research, we created situations.及第三段中For example

58、, being the target of rude behavior reduces peoples performance on a variety of tasks. Other research shows the social benefits of positive behavior. People are more likely to close deals and become future business partners.“例如，成为粗鲁行为的目标会降低人们在各种任务中的表现。其他研究显示积极行为对社会的好处。人们更有可能达成交易，成为未来的商业伙伴。”可知，作者通过举例

59、和实验支持他的观点。故选D。30Which best describes the authors attitude in the text?AConcerned. BDoubtful.CObjective. DPositive.答案：C解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and costs of negative behavior, hostility can pay off in certain situations.“即使积极行为有广泛的社会效益，消极行为要付出代价，但敌意

60、也能在某些情况下得到回报。”由此可知，作者的态度是“客观的”。故选C。31What could be the title of the text?AThe Costs of Negative BehaviorBThe Surprising Power of HostilityCThe Benefits of Positive BehaviorDThe Importance of Effective Mediation答案：B解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段中Surprisingly, new research that my colleagues and I conducted suggests

61、that, to effectively help people settle their conflicts, mediators should adopt an hostile (敌对的) attitude rather than a calming one. A hostile mediator, we find, brings better results than a nice one.“令人惊讶的是，我和同事进行的一项新研究表明，为了有效地帮助人们解决冲突，调解员应该采取敌对态度，而不是平静的态度。我们发现，一个敌对的调解员比一个友善的调解员能带来更好的结果。”可知本文标题是The

62、 Surprising Power of Hostility，故选B。DI was recently surfing the Internet when I came across a collection of strange beach photos where everyone had a cloth wall surrounding their little patch of sand. I had never seen anything like it before, and I was interested in it. So I started searching all sor

63、ts of phrases that might throw light on the mystery of Polish beach separators. I found a site on Polands affairs that actually covered this “phenomenon” in details. According to the site, beach separators have been a part of Polish beachgoing culture for a long time, but have recently been getting

64、a lot of attention online, after foreign tourists started posting photos on social networks. Beach separators vary in size according to the size of the group. Youll see tiny ones only surrounding the space around a single beach towel, and giant ones separating a large part of the beach. They werent

65、designed to protect their users from prying (窥探) eyes. Its no secret that strong winds are very common on the shores of the Baltic Sea, so they were originally meant to allow beachgoers to enjoy sunbathing without having their belongings blown away, or sand blown in their faces. However, in recent y

66、ears, people have begun criticizing them. During the summer, beach separators are placed so close to each other that a person can hardly pass between them, let alone find a place to put their own beach towels. This creates a problem for foreign tourists unfamiliar with them, who just want a place to

67、 lie down on the sand. And thus they can easily create all kinds of conflicts due to the lack of space. For example, some people leave the beach for hours but leave their separators in place to make sure that their space doesnt get occupied by someone else. Having visited a fair number of seaside re

68、sorts (度假胜地) across Europe, I admit that I have never seen anything like this before.本文作者主要介绍了波兰特有的沙滩文化混杂的海滩分隔栏。32What attracted the authors attention according to the first paragraph?ASome phrases. BThe cloth walls.CThe sand patches. DThe colorful stones.答案：B解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段I was recently surfing t

69、he Internet when I came across a collection of strange beach photos where everyone had a cloth wall surrounding their little patch of sand.可知，作者被吸引是因为海滩照片中每个人都有一层布墙。故选B。33Why did the beachgoers set up separators?ATo attract others attention.BTo keep themselves in private.CTo stop winds disturbing th

70、em.DTo protect themselves from sunburn.答案：C解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句中so they were originally meant to allow beachgoers to enjoy sunbathing without having their belongings blown away, or sand blown in their faces.可知，其目的是阻止风打扰他们。故选C。34What seems to be the problem with beach separators? AThey cause plenty o

71、f garbage.BThey make the beach overcrowded.CThey leave their separators unattended.DThey lead to many crimes against foreigners.答案：B解析：细节理解题。根据文章第四段During the summer, beach separators are placed so close to each other that a person can hardly pass between them, let alone find a place to put their ow

72、n beach towels.可知，在夏天的时候，海滩分隔栏之间挨得如此近，所以一个人很难从中间通过。故选B。35Whats the authors purpose of writing this passage?ATo encourage the local tourism in Poland.BTo introduce a kind of Polish beach culture.CTo discuss the possibilities of solving the beach problem.DTo urge the tourism department to face the bea

73、ch problem.答案：B解析：推理判断题。从文章第一段So I started searching all sorts of phrases that might throw light on the mystery of Polish beach separators.以及全文内容可知，作者介绍了波兰特有的沙滩文化。故选B。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。Most of us grab a cup of coffee and a quick bite in the morning and eat

74、 more as the day goes on. _36_ However，more and more studies on health suggest we may be doing it all backward._37_ It suggests that we should start our day with a big breakfast and follow it with a smaller lunch and a light supper. More research is needed，but a series of experiments in animals and

75、humans have pointed in the same direction：_38_ “I always tell people not to eat close to bedtime，” said a doctor in the United States. “Try to eat earlier in the day.”Having the largest meal in the morning appears to have advantages for weight control compared with having a large meal in the evening

76、，said one of the researchers. Our body uses insulin (胰岛素) to process the sugars in foods，she explained. The action of the hormone (激素) appears to be at its peak performance early in the day. “If you give a healthy individual a big meal in the morning，the blood glucose (葡萄糖) might stay high one or tw

77、o hours before coming back to normal，” Dr Kahleova added. “Now，you give the same big meal to the same healthy individual at night. _39_ ”Doctors call this “evening diabetes (糖尿病)”Dr Kahleova said that the message is simple. Its just like the old proverb: “Eat breakfast like a king，lunch like a princ

78、e and dinner like a beggar.” Good as it is，this piece of advice may be hard to follow. Nowadays，family life and social gettogethers often sit down to a big meal at the end of the day. _40_ADoctors have already taken note.BThe blood glucose will stay high up to three hours.CThe largest meal of the da

79、y usually comes in the evening.DA US survey of the diet patterns provides the latest evidence.EFor most of us，it is hard to make dinner our lightest meal of the day.FNot surprisingly，those who loved snacks tended to gain weight over time.GThey suggested that rethinking when and how much we eat may h

80、ave benefits.这是一篇说明文。我们大多数人往往早餐吃得最少，午餐晚餐会逐渐增加。而研究发现，我们或许应该反向行之：早餐吃得最多最好，午餐次之，晚餐最少。36C解析：上一句提出：我们大多数人早上喝一杯咖啡，吃点东西，并随着时间的推移吃得更多。承接该句，C选项切题：一天中最大的一餐通常在晚上。该段最后一句和前文正好构成转折关系：我们应该反向行之。37D解析：根据下文中的“More research is needed”可知，It suggests that. 中的it应该指一个研究，根据代词指代原则，该空应该提到一个调查研究。故D选项正确：一个美国的调查对饮食模式提供了最新的证据。38

81、A解析：根据下一句中的“said a doctor in the United States”可知，医生们对于调查研究的结果也表示认同，故该空应选A选项：医生们也注意到了这一点。39B解析：前文提到：如果你早上给一个健康的人吃一顿大餐，血糖可能会在恢复正常前一到两个小时保持高水平。空前一句提出另外一种情况：你晚上给同一个健康的人吃同样的大餐。那么，该空应该介绍这个人在晚上吃了大餐之后的血糖情况。且根据下文提到的“糖尿病”可以推知，该空应该提到“血糖高”这种情况。故B选项正确。40E解析：上文提到：虽然该建议是好，但这条建议可能很难遵循。如今，家庭生活和社交聚会通常在一天结束时进行。由此推知，现

82、在的人们晚上少吃几乎是不可能的。故E选项正确：对我们大多数人来说，很难把晚餐作为一天中吃得最少的一餐。第三部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。A friend gave me a book which is about flowers and trees. For some _41_， it felt good in my hands and heart. Maybe it was _42_ because Id lost everything in a h

83、ouse fire or maybe because it was _43_ to me with love. Either way, it was a simple _44_.Some weeks later I had a tire blowout. I had my two babies with me and no _45_ tire. We were in a canyon (峡谷), so there were no _46_ for phone calls. And the _47_ family I had in town was out of town.Luckily, I

84、dont _48_ when it comes to basic survival skills. I set up a tent in an open area and then _49_ the surroundings. Wed be fine for a night if needed.Soon I _50_ three young adults coming off the river with their kayaks (橡皮船). I unconsciously said, “Todays your lucky day. You will be doing a _51_ act

85、of kindness. You are giving a lady and her kids a _52_ to town. ” They looked at me as if I had been _53_.A couple _54_ and asked if they could help. I felt sad because I had nothing _55_. During our journey to town we got to know each other. I learned the husband was a(n) _56_.By coincidence, I had
