9、短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。A When you are about to go to a boarding school in England, there are many different questions that may come to mind. But once you look at them with some perspective, you will certainly feel easy. Here is a normal boarding day.Early Morning： Usually boarders get up aroun

10、d 7：00 am. and have around an hour to take a shower and put on their uniform before breakfast.Lessons： Classes start at 9：00 am. and every lesson lasts for 50 minutes. After two lessons, at 10：40 am., youll have a short break. The next period of classes will include two more lessons.Lunch： Lunch is

11、usually held around 12：30 pm. at the dining hall, where youll join your friends to enjoy a hot dish. After an hour of lunch, youll have three or four more lessons to attend.Dinner： At 5：00 pm. you will have finished your school lessons for the day. Most boarding schools in the UK offer their full bo

12、arders different kinds of hot meals to choose from.Activities/Sports： All boarding schools in the UK provide many different kinds of activities for their boarders, such as football, swimming, golf or art. Prep： An important part of boarding school life is the supervised homework session known as “pr

13、ep”. Although prep might sound stressful, its a great way for you to keep up with your study.Free time： Once you are done with all your classes and activities, its time to relax.Bedtime： In most boarding schools, the lights go out around 10：30 pm. Being nervous just before you go to a boarding schoo

14、l is completely normal and understandable. Hopefully, being aware of the usual routine youll be following can help you. Once you are there, you will also see how exciting life in a boarding school in England can be.21What can help you keep up with your study in the boarding school? ADoing activities

15、. BHaving lessons. CEnjoying free time. DThe supervised homework session. 22.What do we know about boarding schools in England from the text? AClasses usually start at 8: 30 am. BStudents can have a short break after four lessons. CThey dont give students any free time. DThey turn off the lights aro

16、und 10：30 pm.23What is the purpose of the text? ATo help students know about boarders life. BTo attract more students to boarding schools. CTo introduce a new school life. DTo advertise for boarding schools.B Daily physical activity is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. For this reason, many

17、architects and designers are working to create buildings that encourage people to make exercise a part of their ordinary routine. The movement to promote healthy activity through architecture is called active design. It began in 1998 as part of a university public health program, and it has since ga

18、ined popularity in cities around the world. Active design uses a number of techniques to encourage the occupants of a building to be more active. One of the most important strategies of active design is inspiring people to make walking part of their routine. A particularly successful tool for promot

19、ing walking is the skipstop elevator. These elevators stop only on every second or third floor, leaving riders to take the stairs in order to reach their destination. Another strategy of active design is to make stairs more pleasant and inviting. Instead of creating dark stairwells that are located

20、in isolated parts of buildings, active design uses welllit and centrally placed stairs to encourage more foot traffic. Skipstop elevators and appealing stair design are both effective tools of active design because they offer incentive and opportunity for exercise. In fact, researchers studying a bu

21、ilding that employs both skipstop elevators and more attractive stair design said that 70 percent of building occupants reported using the stairs every day. Active design encourages physical activity using not only the interior features of a building, but the relationship between a building and its

22、surroundings as well. A building that employs active design may integrate outdoor space in order to make the environment more engaging and promote physical activity. Some elements that architects use to incorporate the exterior with the interior are glass walls, interior gardens or park spaces, and

23、courtyards with open ceilings, all of which deemphasize the boundaries between inside and outside. These elements make the building more physically and mentally invigorating. Similarly, by increasing the number of entrances and exits to a building, architects can help keep a buildings users interest

24、ed in their surroundings by providing a variety of routes for them to use. If people continue to be stimulated by new sights or experiences, they are less likely to choose the quickest and easiest path to their destination and may instead choose a more physically challenging route.24What does the un

25、derlined word “incentive” in Paragraph 2 mean?ARequirement. BEncouragement.CTechnique. DAssistance.25Why does the author discuss dark stairwells in Paragraph 2?ATo demonstrate the differences between elevator and stairwell design. BTo describe one advantage of using skipstop elevators in buildings.

26、CTo make a point about why people dont use the stairs often. DTo argue that skipstop elevators may lead to design failures.26Which of the following is NOT a way that architects weaken the boundary between indoor and outdoor spaces? ACreating more routes for entering and exiting. BBuilding gardens in

27、side the building. CCreating spaces with open ceilings. DUsing seethrough materials.27. How does Paragraph 2 relate to Paragraph 3 in the passage?APara 2 describes an early model of a design discussed in para 3.BPara 3 argues about the effectiveness of the technique from para 2.CPara 3 introduces a

28、different strategy than the one discussed in para 2.DPara 2 explains a technique, and para 3 gives examples of how it is used.C Up and down the economic ladder, many Americans who work and especially those raising kids are pressed for time, wishing they had more of it to devote to leisure activities

29、 (or even just sleeping). At the same time, research has indicated that people who are busy tend to be happier than those who are idle, whether their busyness is purposeful or not. A research paper released late last year investigated this tradeoff, attempting to pinpoint (精确指出) how much leisure tim

30、e is best. Its authors examined the relationship between the amount of “discretionary time” people had basically, how much time people spend awake and doing what they want and how pleased they were with their lives.The paper, which analyzed data covering about 35,000 Americans, found that employed p

31、eoples ratings of their satisfaction with life peaked when they had in the neighborhood of two and a half hours of free time a day. For people who didnt work, the best amount was four hours and 45 minutes.The research traced a relationship between free time and life satisfaction, but didnt provide a

32、ny final insight into what underlies that correlation “which is exciting, because this is a work in progress，” says Cassie Mogilner Holmes, a professor at UCLAs Anderson School of Management and a coauthor of the paper, which hasnt yet been peerreviewed or published in an academic journal.An experim

33、ent that the researchers arranged hinted at (暗示) a possible explanation of the correlation they found. They asked participants to picture and describe what it would be like to have a certain amount of daily free time, and then report how theyd feel about that allotment (分配). “What we find is that ha

34、ving too little time makes people feel stressed, and maybe thats obvious.” says Holmes. “But interestingly, that effect goes away the role of stress goes away once you approach the optimal point.” After that point, Holmes says, the subjects started to say they felt less productive overall, which cou

35、ld explain why having a lot of free time can feel like having too much free time.Its not clear what an individual is to do with these findings, since the amount of free time people have usually has something to do with a variety of factors, such as having children or a degree of control over work sc

36、hedules. Holmes shared her research with the MBA students in her class on happiness, and some of the most timecrunched among them were comforted by the findings：“I think that two and a half hours creates a nice goal that even if you increase a little bit more of your discretionary time use, you can

37、expect that it will translate into greater life satisfaction.”28According to the passage, what happens to Americans occupied with their work? AThey allow themselves more leisure time. BThey keep themselves busy on purpose. CThey know how much leisure time is best. DThey experience higher level of sa

38、tisfaction.29What can be learned about the relationship between free time and life satisfaction?AResearchers have cast light on the cause of the correlation.BUnemployed people need more leisure time to feel content.CThe paper on the correlation has achieved peer recognition.DEmployed people enjoy mo

39、re leisure time in the neighborhood.30Which of the following charts illustrates the change of stress and productivity?31It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _.AHolmes is optimistic about the influence of her findingsBindividuals are encouraged to control their work schedulesCpeople with t

40、ight schedules cant benefit from the findingsDthe MBA students find no free time to obtain life satisfactionD A medical study has shown that excess (过度的) coffee drinking could cause heart attacks in people who do not metabolize (使新陈代谢) caffeine fast enough. The study, published recently in the Journ

41、al of the American Medical Association, says an enzyme (酶) that metabolizes caffeine in the liver works differently in some people, depending on the makeup of the gene. People who have a slow version of the enzyme are at a greater risk of a heart attack when they drink more coffee. The risk had some

42、thing to do with a persons age and how many cups of coffee he drinks. The team from the University of Toronto in Canada studied 4,024 people living in coffeerich Costa Rica between 1994 and 2004, of whom half suffered nonfatal (非致命的) heart attacks. They found slightly more than half had the slow ver

43、sion of the gene, while the rest had the fast form. Two to three cups of coffee a day increased the possibilities of a heart attack by 36 percent for those with the slowacting gene and four or more cups a day lifted it by 64 percent. But those under 50 who had the fast version of the gene had a lowe

44、r risk of heart disease, even with four or more cups a day. Those with the fastacting gene who drank two to three cups of coffee a day had 22 percent reduced possibilities of having a heart attack, but drinking four or more cups a day only lessened the risk by 1 percent. Scientists recommend limitin

45、g coffee consumption (消耗量) to within four cups a day.32People who have a slow version of the enzyme _.Aare in danger when they drink coffeeBare living in coffeerich Costa RicaChave the slow version of the geneDcannot drink four or more cups of coffee a day33The example of Costa Rica the author prese

46、nted in the passage proves that _. Athe heart attack in Costa Rica is really serious Bthe heart problem has something to do with drinking coffee Cpeople in Costa Rica cannot metabolize caffeine in the liver Dmore than half people have the slow version of gene34It can be concluded that the passage is

47、 most probably written for _. Adoctors who study heart disease Bspecialists who offer medical care Cold people who have the slow version of the gene Dthose who love drinking coffee every day35What is the best title for this passage? ACoffee and Heart Attacks BGene and Heart Disease CCaffeine and Enz

49、he right type of exercise, it can help to consider your workout personality. _37_ If so, solo sports like running, biking, or snowboarding could be for you. Or do you like the shared motivation and companionship that comes from being part of a team? School sports, intramural leagues, club teams, and

50、 pickup games are great ways to stay active with others. _38_ For example, whether your chosen activity is affordable and available to you (Activities like horseback riding may be harder for people who live in cities, for example.)

89、 Although prep might sound stressful, its a great way for you to keep up with your study”可知，监督作业环节可以帮助你赶上学习进度。故选D。22答案与解析：D细节理解题。根据文章第九段“In most boarding schools, the lights go out around 10：30 pm.”可知，大多数寄宿学校晚上大约10：30熄灯。故选D。23答案与解析：A写作意图题。本文介绍了英国寄宿学校的一些情况，其目的是帮助学生了解寄宿学校的生活。故选A。B【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了日

90、常体育活动是健康生活方式的重要组成部分。出于这个原因，许多建筑师和设计师都在努力建造一些建筑，鼓励人们把锻炼作为日常生活的一部分。24答案与解析：B词义猜测题。根据画线词所在的句子“Skipstop elevators and appealing stair design are both effective tools of active design because they offer incentive and opportunity for exercise”可知，跳停电梯和吸引人的楼梯设计都是积极设计的有效工具，因为它们为锻炼提供了激励和机会。画线的词与opportunity并列，

91、都应该是表示积极意义的词，所以incentive意思是鼓励。故选B。25答案与解析：C推理判断题。根据第二段“Another strategy of active design is to make stairs more pleasant and inviting. Instead of creating dark stairwells that are located in isolated parts of buildings, active design uses welllit and centrally placed stairs to encourage more foot tr

102、t city”是对此处的暗示，故选C。【易错点拨】本题容易误选A，考生可能会根据经验，误认为下文是在举例说明它是最好的地方之一。但实际上本文借助Tinkham和Beca的故事来说明这座城市为什么是最好的地方之一，因为这是一座充满善心的城市。42答案与解析：C根据“always loves people”“Tinkhams special brand of enthusiasm”信息可知，Tinkham热爱他人，具有独特的热情，能从最细微的事情中找到快乐(happiness)。43答案与解析：D后面谈到如果Tinkham每天到Beca的免下车打包窗口待一个小时，她就让他免费喝饮料，这是Beca和

104、ly disrespectful”信息可知，有位顾客非常无礼，说明并不是所有的客人都欣赏(appreciated) Tinkham独特的热情。48答案与解析：B上文谈到一个顾客对Tinkham非常无礼，所以这里指Beca对此感到难过(upset)。49答案与解析：A下文谈到了邻居们来给Tinkham庆祝生日，所以这里指Beca在博客中提到(mentioned)了他即将到来的生日。50答案与解析：D本空后面的“on his big day”指的就是Tinkham的生日，因此此处指的是邻居们自发来给他庆祝(celebrate)生日。【易错点拨】本题容易误选C。文章前面谈到了Tinkham的工作就是

105、与人交流，而且前面有“communicating with people here”信息，但是结合空处所在语境可知，邻居们是来为他庆祝生日的。51答案与解析：B根据下文的“she suggested that Bothell.
