A
It feels like every time my mother and I start to have n conversation it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War ll. She will talk about my lack (缺乏) of a bright future because I don't plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don't want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major (主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.
“Why can't you be like my co-worker's son She bemoans all the time. Her co-worker's son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don't know what to answer except that I simply can't be like Mr. Perfect as I've called the unnamed co-worker's son, I can't be like him. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down. And most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of fame(名声)or salary. I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 am and usually comes home around 5:00 pm or even 6:00 pm. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn't mean I'll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.

Claudio Viera de Oliveira is from Brazil. He was born with an upside down head and deformed (畸形的) legs. His mother was told by doctors that she should allow him to die. But she ignored their advice. Oliveira grew up and now he has written a book about his life after the age of 40. Since he was a child, Oliveira has liked to keep himself busy. He didn't like to depend totally on others. He learned to do things all by himself. At eight, Oliveira began to walk on his knees. His family had to change the floor of the house, so he could walk without injuring humself. His bed, plugs and lights had to be made lower so that he could do things for himself.
He couldn't use a wheelchair because of his unusual shape, making it hard for him to be independent outside the home, but he begged his mother to allow him to go to school and learn with other children. He learned to use a pen with his mouth to type words and even use his lips to operate a mouse or a phone. He also went on to qualify as an accountant and gave speeches at special events. Now Oliveira has published his first book, called"O mundo esta ao(The world is the wrong way around)".
Oliveira said, “Throughout my life I was able to adapt my body to the world. Right now, I don't see myself as being different. I am a normal person. I don't see things upside down. Nowadays I can say that I am a professional, international public speaker and that I receive invitations from all over the world."

As many as 10 of the 17 kinds of penguins may be in danger of disappearing. The number of penguins has decreased by 30% since 1987.
Penguins are black and white birds that live in the southern part of the world. They are common in South America, New Zealand, Australia and South Africa. Many live near cold waters. But some live near warm waters in Galapagos Islands. Penguins cannot fly, but they are fine swimmers. Penguins eat fish and krill(磷虾). The warming of the earth is the reason for the decrease in the number of penguins. The heating of the air has caused ocean waters to become warmer. Higher water temperatures have reduced the supply of fish and krill. Some years later these birds are completely unable to reproduce(繁殖). Besides, many adult penguins die of hunger.
Widespread(广泛的)fishing, exploration for oil and oil leaks(漏)also make penguins in danger. Poisonous things in ocean waters are another danger. Penguins also have their enemies, including wild dogs, sharks, seals and sea lions.
News about penguins is not all bad, however. Several years ago, oil leaking from a ship hurt 40% of the penguins in South Africa. The penguins became covered with oil. But thousands of people helped clean and treat the birds well. Then they returned the penguins to the wild. Now these South African penguins are reproducing in higher numbers than before the oil leaking.
8. The first paragraph tells us that________.
A. some new kinds of penguins appear
B. all the penguins are in danger of disappearing
C. there are twenty-seven kinds of penguins in all
D. for more than 30 years, the number of penguins has decreased by 30%
9. Which of the following is NOT the cause of penguins' decrease in numbers
A. Oil leaking.
B. Widespread fishing.
C. Human's killing.
D. Warming of the oceans.
10. Whar's the best title of the passage
A. Protecting our environment
B. Ocean waters are polluted
C. The decrease in the number of penguins
D. Ocean is important for penguins

【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“She will talk about my lack(缺乏)of a bright future because I don't plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don't want to do any job related to science, either.(她会说我没有光明的未来,因为我不打算成为一名医生。让她失望的是,我也不想做任何与科学有关的工作。)”可知作者和他妈妈经常谈论的是作者未来该从事什么职业,故选C。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍压力对我们身心的好处。
【11题详解】
根据上文“We all face quantities of stresses in day-to-day living, whether at work, in the home, or anywhere in between.(我们每天面临许多来自各方面的压力)”和下文“Here’s how stress can help us on an everyday basis.(下面是怎样使压力帮助我们)”可知,虽然压力不好,但如果妥善处理的话,也会带来好处。G项“但是妥善处理,压力可以对我们的身心有所帮助”符合题意,起到承上启下的作用。故选G。
【12题详解】
根据上文“Did you ever notice that sometimes when you are stressed, your memory seems to improve Remember that test you passed where the answers seemed to come out of nowhere (你有没有注意到有时候当你感到压力时,你的记忆力似乎有所提高?还记得你通过的那次考试吗?答案似乎不知从何而来?)”可知,上文提出了一系列问题。由此推知,空处要对这些问题进行回答。D项“这是大脑回应压力的一种方式”符合题意,也是有关压力和记忆力内容的,呼应小标题。故选D。
【13题详解】
空处为本段小标题。根据下文“Successful employees turn stress into motivation. Have you ever noticed that you get the least amount of work done when you have the fewest deadlines Too little stress can affect how much you actually get done. When you take risks and choose to get over the difficulty, it improves your mental toughness and self-confidence.(成功的员工将压力转化为动力。你有没有注意到,当你的截止日期最少时,你完成的工作最少?压力太小会影响你实际完成的工作。当你冒险并选择克服困难时,它会提高你的心理韧性和自信心)”可知,本段主要讲压力可以变为动力,但压力要适度。A项“帮助你在工作中获得优势”符合本段大意,可以作为小标题,故选A。
【14题详解】
本段主题是“压力帮助你抵抗疾病”。根据上文“Believe it or not, the right kind of stress can help your body’s defenses against illness. (信不信由你,适当的压力可以帮助你的身体抵御疾病)”可知,适度的压力有益于免疫系统。E项“你需要健康的免疫系统来帮助抵抗疾病”与上文承接自然,且符合主题,故选E。
15题详解】
本段的主题是“使你的生活更有趣”。根据上文“Think about some stressful situations that we consciously put ourselves in to make life more interesting and enjoyable, like asking someone out on a first date, conquering a known fear, or learning something new. These may not immediately come to mind when you think of stress because of the positive outcomes.(想想我们有意识地将自己置于一些压力环境中,让生活变得更加有趣和愉快,比如第一次约会邀请某人,克服已知的恐惧,或者学习新的东西。当你想到压力时,由于积极的结果,这些可能不会立即浮现在你的脑海中)”推知,尽管不能立刻想到,但有趣的事情能帮我们感受幸福。但F项“但是他们是可以帮助你实现成就感和幸福感的类型”符合题意,选项中的they指代上文提到的有趣事情。故选F。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几种提高记忆力的方法。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意:你有没有因为忘记重要的事情而感到尴尬?分析句子可知,设空处需填入形容词作表语,主语是you,指人,修饰人常用-ed结尾形容词。故填embarrassed。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:更糟糕的是,大多数人都听天由命地过着遗忘的生活。分析句子可知,设空处需填入动名词作介词of的宾语。故填forgetting。
【38题详解】
考查时态。句意:如果你愿意接受这个事实,这本书会告诉你该怎么做。由从句“If you'll just accept that fact”时态及句意可知,主句应使用一般将来时。故填will show。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:放松是一件非常必要的事情,它会提高你的意识和集中注意力的能力。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导限定性定语从句,先行词为thing,指物,在从句中作主语,因而可以用关系代词that或which引导。故填that或which。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意:放松是一件非常必要的事情,它会提高你的意识和集中注意力的能力。句中的连词and连接设空处和ability两个并列成分,作动词enhance的宾语,需填入名词。故填awareness。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:深呼吸,然后告诉自己,你拥有世界上所有的时间去记忆。根据设空处前的a deep可知,设空处需填入名词单数,短语take a deep breath表示“深呼吸;深吸一口气”。故填breath。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:实际上,消极的玩笑对你的记忆力有很糟糕的影响。分析句子结构可知,设空处需填入副词作状语,修饰整个句子,该词位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Actually。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:实际上,消极的玩笑对你的记忆力有很糟糕的影响。短语have effect on表示“对……有影响”,句中缺少介词on。故填on。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:寻找锻炼记忆力的机会。分析句子可知,设空处需填入名词作介词for的宾语,opportunity表示“机会”,为可数名词,本句中没有表示单数的限定词,且结合句意可知,需用复数。故填opportunities。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意:例如,如果你正在学习一门语言,试着主动地记住不规则动词。根据句意可知,句中的language为泛指,且以辅音音素开头,因而用不定冠词a。故填a。

【答案】Dear Li Hua,
I’m very glad to have received the letter from you two weeks ago. I’ve been thinking about the question you asked me. In my opinion, you should come back after you finish your studies abroad. For one reason, what you are studying is badly needed nowadays in China. It will be quite easy for you to find a good job. In fact, I know a few big companies in our city are hoping to hire people like you.

So what are you waiting for
Yours,
Li Hai
