Smokejumpers
Every year, wildfires destroy millions of hectares of forest land, leaving many homes damaged and a lot of people homeless. Smokejumpers are helping to stop this.
What is a smokejumper
Smokejumpers are a special type of firefighter. Unlike regular firefighters, they work in a different way. They jump from planes or are lowered by helicopters into areas that are difficult to reach by car or on foot, like the middle of a mountain forest. They race to put out fires as fast as they can.
What do smokejumpers do
At a fire site, smokejumpers first examine the land and decide how to fight the fire. Their main goal is to stop a fire from spreading or to slow its progress until full, ground-based firefighters arrive. Using basic equipment such as shovels and axes, smokejumpers clear land of burnable material like dry grass and dead trees. They carry water with them too, but only a limited amount.
Who can be a smokejumper
Although the majority of smokejumpers are men, more women are joining now. The most important factors are your height and weight. Smokejumpers employed in the United States, for example, must be between 120 and 200 pounds (54 and 91 kilograms), so they don’t get blown by strong winds, or get hurt when they land. Smokejumpers must also be capable of surviving in the wild.
The work is dangerous, and the hours are long. But for these firefighters, smokejumping isn’t just an occupation. They love being able to jump out of planes, fight fires, and live in the forest. As 28-year-old smokejumper Bob Smith says, “This is the best job for tough guys.”
21.What is the first thing a smokejumper does after arriving at a fire site
A.Clear the land. B.Study the area.
C.Look for water. D.Put out the fire.
22. If you want to be a smokejumper, you must be ______.
A.within a certain weight range B.male
C.able to fly a plane D.older than 28 years of age
23.From which website would you most probably find this text
A.what-is-on.com. B.all-occupations.org.
C.. D.adventuretours.org.
B
Does handwriting matter Not very much, according to many educators. However, scientists say it is far too soon to declare handwriting is not important. New evidence suggests that the link between handwriting and educational development is deep.
Children not only learn to read more quickly when they first learn to write by hand, but they are also better able to create ideas and remember information. In other words, it’s not only what we write that matters — but how.
A study led by Karin James, a psychologist at Indiana University, gave support to that view. A group of children, who had not learned to read and write, were offered a letter or a shape on a card and asked to copy it in one of three ways: draw the image on a page but with a dotted outline(虚线), draw it on a piece of blank white paper, or type it on a computer. Then the researchers put the children in a brain scanner and showed them the image again.
It was found that when children had drawn a letter freehand without a dotted outline or a computer, the activity in three areas of the brain were increased. These three areas work actively in adults when they read and write. By contrast, children who chose the other two ways showed no such effect. Dr. James attributes the differences to the process of free handwriting: Not only must we first plan and take action in a way but we are also likely to produce a result that is variable. Those are not necessary when we have an outline.
It’s time for educators to change their mind and pay more attention to children’s handwriting.
24.What do scientists mean by saying “it is far too soon to declare handwriting is not important”
A.Handwriting is not very important to children.
B.Handwriting has nothing to do with education.
C.Handwriting should not be ignored at present.
D.Handwriting can not be learned in a short time.
25.What does “that view” in Para. 3 refer to
A.Children read quickly when they write by hand.
B.How we write is as important as what we write.
C.Children create ideas and remember information.
D.A group of students should know what to write.
26.Which is NOT the children’s task in the experiment
A.Copy the image on a page but with a dotted outline.
B.Draw the image on a piece of blank white paper.
C.Type the image directly on a computer.
D.Put a brain scanner and show the image again.
27.According to the passage, the author obviously _______ giving up handwriting.
A.is for B.is against
C.is responsible for D.doesn’t care about
C
.Have you ever been faced with trying to stay positive when others around you are negative A negative person can bring you down and throw your positive plans out of the window. Whether you deal with a family member, friend or co-worker who is negative, there are things you can do to remain positive in the face of negativity
Whatever you do, don’t argue with a negative person. Arguing only adds fuel to the fire. I have noticed when my children are crabby, it is best to avoid trying to convince them to analyze and adjust their attitude. As soon as I take the approach of being in opposition to them, the situation gets worse before it gets better. Sometimes the best thing to do is remain silent and let negativity pass.
You know how difficult it can be to give love and positive attention to negative people. Unfortunately, that is often exactly what they need. A negative person is usually afraid he is unlovable. How do you show love when someone is negative You must listen to what he is trying to tell you. Acknowledge the feelings he has by saying something like, “You sound very angry right now.” How might you help a negative person Offer a hug even if you get rejected. A negative person often has difficulty accepting love from others.
If you have negative people on your life who are affecting your mental and physical health, you need to decide whether or not you want these people in your life. Some people are so negative that you have no other choice but to remove them from your life. However, some people, such as your children, are difficult to remove from your life, in this case, professional counseling(咨询) may be the answer.
28. What does the underlined word “crabby” in Para.2 mean
A. Quite excited. B. Very lonely. C. Easily annoyed. D. Highly optimistic.
29. What’s the main idea of Para.3
A. Negative people need care.
B. Negative people make us happy..
C. Negative people can be hurt easily.
D. Negative people are hard to get along with.
30. What does the author suggest doing
A. Focusing on positive things.
B. Trying to change negative thoughts.
C. Controlling our own negative thoughts.
D. Staying away from some negative people.
31.In which section of a magazine can we most probably read the text
A. Health B.Relationships C.Lifestyles D.Entertainment.
D
Losing weight comes with a lot of health benefits-including making your brain sharper.
Yes, it turns out that overweight may damage cognitive functions such as memory and attention.There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance.Losing weight,therefore,may help improve these mental functions,according to a new research led by John Gunstad,assistant professor of psychology at Kent State University.
Growing evidence suggests that being fat is linked to cognitive deficits(缺陷). So Gunstad and his team guessed that losing weight might improve mental fun_ction. For their study,they measured memory and attention in a group of 150 overweight participants, some of whom had some kind of operation for weight loss and some did not. All of the volunteers completed mental skills tests to assess their abilities of memory and attention at the beginning of the study,and again 12 weeks later. To begin with, about 24% of the patients showed damaged learning and 23%showed signs of poor memory when tested. At the end of the study, those who had lost weight after operation improved their scores into the average or above average range for cognitive functions.Scores for the volunteers who didn’t lose weight dropped even further.
The study helped Gunstad to find out whether losing weight had any effect on mental fun_ction. Now that he’s seen the positive effect that weight loss can have on memory and attention, he says he will next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional way-eating healthier and getting more active. He expects that losing weight in this way will have a similarly positive effect on the brain. “If we can improve the condition with operations, then we can probably produce the same change with behavioral weight loss as well," he says.
32.There is less research on overweight and cognitive functions because researchers ________.
A.believe overweight only affects our body
B.have focused on ways to sharpen people's mind
C.do not consider overweight a main cause for low cognitive ability
D.are clear about the relation between weight and mental functions
33.The result of Gunstad's study shows that __________.
A.losing weight has little effect on people s memory
B.losing weight can improve people's mental functions
C.overweight people are likely to have psychological problems
D.overweight people's abilities of concentration differ greatly
34.What is Gunstad planning to prove next in his research
A.Slim people are smarter than overweight people.
B.Healthy diet is better than exercise in losing weight.
C.Traditional ways of losing weight are better than operations.
D.Overweight people will get smarter by taking more exercise.
35.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Body Weight and Health
B.Losing Weight by Operations
C.Ways to Improve Mental Functions
D.Losing Weight to Sharpen Your Mind.

When I was a little girl, I spent memorable school vacations with my grandmother, Mama Lenn Yaho. My Mama Lenn Yaho was a farmer with a 41 back that made it seem like she was always leaning forward to examine something. Early in the morning, she set out to the farm.

There were the 44 greetings. “Did you wake up in a good mood this morning Did you sleep well ” Then, the more personalized greetings. “Are the grandchildren in good health And what about their parents ” If she passed the 45 person upon our return later, she would greet him or her again.
The people that Mama Lenn Yaho greeted would 46 similarly. “I see you have your granddaughter with you today. How is her father ” As a(n) 47 girl, I found these greeting habits humorously meaningless and 48 time-consuming. What I now realize is that the greetings strengthened the 49 that bound the people in my grandmother’s village. They promoted a sense of 50 .
I believe in the gift of a 51 greeting. I believe it is more than mere good 52 . It is like pressing the 53 button among the noise of our daily lives, as we 54 from home to work, from one meeting to another, to 55 and drop off the children. It is stopping to 56 the person in front of you as if to 57 say, “I see you.”
My Mama Lenn Yaho 58 me that there is always time to greet someone before getting down to 59 . I believe you can always take a few extra seconds to exchange greetings with a person. I believe we enrich our society when we acknowledge the unique 60 of one another.

答案
听力：1-5 ABCCB
6-10ACBCA
11-15CBACB
16-20CCBAB
阅读理解
A:BAB
B:CBDB
解析：24.推理判断题。根据首段中“Does handwriting matter Not very much, according to many educators. However, scientists say it is far too soon to declare handwriting is not important.”可知,教育学家认为用手书写并不十分重要,而科学家持不同观点,认为放弃用手书写为时过早。故该题正确选项是C。
25.指代关系题。选项A、C都有提到,但并不是“that view”指代的内容,D选项并未提到,因此是错误的。“that view”指代上文,即第二段结尾处“…it’s not only what we write that matters —but how.”,意为“怎样书写和写什么都很重要”。故该题正确选项是B。
26.细节理解题。根据第三段内容,A、B、C选项都属于实验中的内容。根据“They were then placed in a brain scanner and shown the image again.”可知受测学生被置于脑部扫描仪前,而不是使用脑部扫描仪,故该题正确选项是D。
27.推理判断题。虽然文中提到了教育学家和科学家的不同观点,但是结尾处作者明确表达“It’s time for educators to change their mind and pay more attention to children’s handwriting.”,认为教育学家应该重视孩子的书写训练,不应该放弃用手书写。题目问的是作者对“giving up handwriting”的观点是什么,故该题正确选项为B。
C
答案：C; A; D; B
解析：28.词义猜测题。根据第二段中的I have noticed when my children arecrabby, it is best to avoid trying to convince them to analyze and adjust their attitude.(当我的孩子脾气暴躁的时候,我已经注意到,最好避免说服他们去分析和调整他们的态度。)可知划线部分意为"容易生气的",结合选项A. Quite excited相当兴奋;C. Easily annoyed容易生气;B. Very lonely非常孤独;D. Highly optimistic非常乐观,由此可知答案选C.
29.段落大意题。 根据第三段 You know how difficult it can be to give love and positive attention to negative people. Unfortunately, that is often exactly what they need. A negative person is usually afraid he is unlovable. How do you show love when someone is negative You must listen to what he is trying to tell you. Acknowledge the feelings he has by saying something like, "You sound very angry right now." How might you help a negative person Offer a hug even if you get rejected. A negative person often has difficulty accepting love from others.(你知道给消极的人以爱和积极的关注是多么困难。不幸的是,这往往正是他们所需要的。消极的人通常害怕自己是不可爱的。你必须听他想告诉你什么。承认他的感受,说:"你现在听起来很生气。"你怎么能帮助一个消极的人 即使你被拒绝,也要给予拥抱。消极的人往往很难接受别人的爱。) 可知消极的人也需要关爱,故选A.
30.推理判断题。根据最后一段If you have negative people on your life who are affecting your mental and physical health, you need to decide whether or not you want these people in your life.(如果你的生活中有消极的人影响你的身心健康,你需要决定你是否希望这些人在你的生活中。)可知作者建议我们要远离消极的人,故选D.
31.文章出处题。通读全文可知本文介绍当你周围的人都是消极的时候,你有没有尝试过保持积极的心态 消极的人会让你失望,把你的积极计划扔到窗外,无论你是和一个消极的家庭成员、朋友还是同事打交道,你都可以做一些事情来保持积极的心态。那如何处理消极与积极的关系是很重要的,因此文章涉及到关系问题,A. Health健康;D. Entertainment环境;C. Lifestyles生活方式;B. Relationships关系,故选B.
D
.答案：C; B; D; D
解析：32.细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance.”可知,很少有关于过度肥胖和认知功能的研究是因为研究人员不认为过度肥胖是认知水平低的一个主要原因。
33.细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“ Losing weight, therefore, may help improve these mental functions, according to a new research led by John Gunstad, assistant professor of psychology at Kent State University. ”可知Gunstad的研究表明减肥能提高人们的大脑认知能力。故B项正确。
34.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“he says he will next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional way —eating healthier and getting more active. ”可知 Gunstad 下一步在研究中想要证明的是过度肥胖的人可以通过多锻炼变得更聪明。
35.标题归纳题。根据文章主旨句“Losing weight comes with a lot of health benefits—including making your brain sharper. ”可知,这篇文章主要讲述减肥可以使人变得更聪明,故D项作标题最好。

解析：本文是说明文。交流是人类日常行为中不可缺少的部分。那么怎么才能顺利交流呢 文章从三个方面介绍了交流的策略。即充分准备,学会倾听,重视目光交流。
36.【答案】G【解析】设空处前面提到交流的意义。设空处后面提到“Because these certain conversations can make people attracted. (某些对话可以使人备受吸引)”。选项G中提到"Furthermore, good communication is an interesting attraction in our daily life.(此外,良好的沟通在我们的日常生活中是一种有趣的吸引力。)"在此处衔接恰当。所以选G。
37.【答案】F【解析】设空处前面“We can make certain adequate preparations, especially some relative questions. (我们可以做一些充分的准备,特别是一些相关的问题。)”提到准备好相关的问题有利于良好的交流,后面又提到“We can ask some questions to show our politeness, respect and sincere care. (我们可以问一些表示我们的礼貌,尊重和关心的问题。)”。F项“人们认为被问好的问题是相当舒服的”。所以选F。
38.【答案】E【解析】设空处前面提到“The most important part of communication is to listen.(沟通最重要的部分是倾听。)" 要我们学会倾听,设空处后面提到要给别人诉说的机会。因此设空处要表达我们的具体做法:认真倾听,换位思考。E项“我们应该关注别人所说,并且站在他们的角度思考。”所以选E。
39.【答案】B【解析】通读该段内容可知,该段强调目光交流在对话中的作用。B项“眼睛是心灵的窗户”,符合语境。所以选B。
40.【答案】C【解析】该空位于段末, 容易被误认为该段的总结。其实,该段的结构分为两部分:首先强调目光交流在对话中的作用,最后两句又提到不当对视的不必要。But 有导向作用,设空处前面提到不要进行不当对视,设空处当然要讲不当对视的影响。C项“会使他人感到不自在和不开心去继续进行谈话。”所以选C。

祖母一起度过了假期给作者留下了深刻的印象。无论如何，祖母遇到别人，都会热情地打招呼，看似平常的招呼却给人带来了温暖。
41. A 根据下文中it seem like she was always leaning forward to examine something 可知，祖背是驼（bent）的。
42. D根据文中的 trying to keep up(努力跟上)可知，作者跟不上祖母的步伐，因此选择
breathlessly(气喘吁吁)。Aimlessly “漫无目的地”; randomly“随意地”；carelessly“漫不经心地。
43. C根据上下文理解可知，此处祖母总是greet（问候）她见到的人。
44. B根据后面列举的问候语可知，此处指的是惯常的问候语。usual “惯常的，通常的”，符合句子意思。后文中的personalized(个性化的/个人化的)这个词也能回扣该题的答案。
45. A根据本句中的again可知选择same, 表示遇到同一个人。
46. B根据空后的similarly及下文的内容可知，此处指的是人们也会用同样的方式作出回应（respond）。
47. B根据前文中的 when I was young 可知，应该选择immature(未成熟的,未成人的)，所以下文提到了对于祖母问候他人行为的不理解。
48. D 根据下文 what I now realize is that the greetings strengthened…可知，此处指的是小时候作者认为这些问候都是滑稽的废话，同时又是在没有必要（unnecessarily）地浪费时间。
49. C据句中bound the people（把人们联结起来）可知应该选择connections(联系)。
50. A 根据全文的内容可知，此处这样一个问候使得人们又归属感(a sense of belonging)。
51. B 根据上下文可知祖母问候不是随意而为，而是有意为之，因此选择deliberate “故意的，有意的”。
52. D 根据语境可知，此处作者相信那些问候不单单是出于礼貌。Manners “礼貌，礼节”。
53. D 根据上下文 stopping可知，应该选择pause “暂停”。 指问候就像是在我们日常生活 所充斥的噪音之间按下了暂停键。
54. B 根据语境可知，此处指在我们从家里匆忙赶往工作场所的时候。rush “冲，匆忙”。
55. A 根据语境可知，此处指去接送孩子。 空白处应该和drop off(让..下车)的意思相反，故 而pick up 符合句意。
56. B 此处意思为停下车去辨认你前面的人，好像简单地说一句“我看到你了”。
57. D 参见上题解析。 simply “简单地，仅仅”
58. C 祖母教育（educate）作者，在干正事（business）之前总会有时间去问候别人。
59. A 参见上题解析。
60. D 根据上下文语境可知，此处指的是我们承认彼此的独特的存在（presence）时，作者相信我们能够使我们的社会更加充实、丰富。

Dear Editor,
I’m a senior high school student, named Li Hua. Now it’s a fashion for many students to have iPads. Using an iPad, we can listen to music, download a lot of learning materials and read them on the screen. Apparently, it’s helpful to our study, especially to our English listening.
Some students, however, bring their iPads to classroom listening to music with earphones or even playing video games, which makes the teacher and other students greatly annoyed.
In my opinion, classroom is a place for students to study in, and concentration is awfully needed for us. Therefore, we should make good use of iPads to help achieve academic success. Furthermore, the school should make a rule to guide the students to use iPads in a proper way.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
