We all know about the health benefits of swimming. It offers a great exercise for the body-it builds patience， muscle strength and cardiovascular（心血管的） fitness. If you don't mind getting wet, it can be fun too. 36 Well, many people are taking the jump, based on evidence that it can actually be good for us.
Cold-water swimming is sometimes called “wild swimming”, namely swimming in natural areas including ponds, rivers and the sea. Jumping in gives a short sharp shock to the body, but many participants say that they have got used to it. A cold dip might wake you up, but research has found that it can have much bigger benefits than that for your body and mind. 37
38 One man who suffered constant pain after surgery claimed that he was cured by taking a swim in cold open water. And another swimmer, Sandria Simons, told the BBC，“The immersion（浸没）of your body in cold， salt water， just feeling like you're at one with nature if you like, just feels amazing.”
But what is it that people are gaining from this cold and uncomfortable experience Doctors say that getting into cold water causes a stress response, but the more you do it, the less stress you will have. It's also thought to have a strong anti-anger effect. 39 Some experts believe that cold-water swimming helps “cross-adaptation”, where one form of stress prepares the body for another. For example, it also helps to reduce the stress of exercising at high altitude.
40 You should approach it with caution, swim with a friend, and maybe start in the summer, when the water temperatures are higher.
A. It can also improve your health and happiness.
B. People of all ages join the activity, even little kids.
C. Cold-water swimmers should make full preparations.
D.So,if you're convinced that this is for you, take advice.
E.But who would enjoy swimming in water that is ice cold
F. But there are bigger benefits to this stress-reducing exercise.
G.Cold-water swimming has reportedly cured certain health conditions.

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, 并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Winter is one of the most magical times of the year to get moving. 36________ However, when you wake up in the morning, it can be hard to follow through on an exercise commitment. Here are ways to keep that drive going throughout the cold months.
Work out with a group. 37_______ This gives you social support and can help with making friends. When you exercise with a group, flaking out(入睡)is no longer an option.
Dress for the weather. When you are working out in the winter, especially if you are exercising outdoors, keep yourself out of the cold in warm layers(层) . 38_______ Make sure the top layer keeps out the snow and rain. If you plan to exercise outside in the dark or in bad weather, where visibility is poorer, wear bright and reflective clothing for safety.
Change up your workout. 39 ________Doing the same type of training can be demotivating. Those who vary their workout routines are 20% likelier to enjoy the exercise session. Switching up your routine can give you a boost of motivation, and help keep winter workouts fun and enjoyable.
40_________Using phone apps, or a fitbit, or even going low tech and marking your calendar in red pen can help you visualize how you've progressed thus far. Finding a system that lets you track your exercise achievements can give you the extra push to get you going when the going gets hard.
New Year's resolutions are a great opportunity to start an exercise routine. Sure working out during the winter may be an uphill battle, but there are strategies to get us over the hill, and onto a healthier, happier new year.

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。
Left-handed people make up around 12% of the global population. One really interesting fact that I picked up was from a scientist who believed that left-handed people tended to be more independent as a result of having to adapt to a world that is largely built for right-handed individuals.___36___!
More likely to have allergies and sleep disorders
A study found that left-handed people were 11 times more likely to suffer from allergies than right-handed folk.___37___.
Left-handed people use the right side of the brain the most
___38___, meaning that the right side controls the left side of the body and the other way around. Hence there is a well-known saying “only left-handed people are in their right minds”. The right-hand side of the brain is thought to control the left side of the body and tasks to do with the arts and creativity.
Are left-handed people smarter
___39___! One 2007 study “Effect of handedness on intelligence level of students”shows that lefties are more likely to have higher IQ. However,another 2010 study “The relationship between hand preference, hand performance, and general cognitive ability” suggests the exact opposite!
___40___
Experiments showed that when given two tasks to complete simultaneously (同时), lefties performed best. This is because right-handed people tend to solve problems by breaking them down into parts and analyzing each piece one at a time. While left-handed people tend to look at the problem as a whole and use pattern-matching to try and solve it.
A．Better at multi-tasking
B．Smarter than the right-handed
C．As we know, the brain is cross-wired
D．This one varies depending on how dated your source is
E．Here are a few more fascinating left-handed people facts
F．Mixed-handed children are more likely to experience language issues
G．And lefties were two and a half times more likely to suffer from sleep disorders

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。
How to make a tastier chocolate
A group of scientists in the Netherlands have been experimenting with a method to make chocolate more of a“ treat ” than ever. 36 The scientists want to know why. But their study focused on how chocolate splits when you bite it.
“To improve how chocolate feels in the mouth, we gave geometry to chocolate,”
Coulais,a member of the group, said. 37 Geometry is a branch of mathematics, dealing with shapes and their characters.
Coulais and his team used a 3D printer to layer dark chocolate in various ways. 38 .They printed another in super-thin zigzagged(之字形的) layers. They also printed chocolates in complicated spirals(复杂的螺旋形). The resulting pieces were fed to ten eager volunteers.
The crunchiest(松脆的)—while remaining easy to bite—was the one made into complicated spirals. It was also the top-tasting experience. “More crunchiness meant that people tended to like it more,”Coulais said.
39 They wanted to find out which chocolate was the crunchiest.) The general winner remained that spiral.
However, the spiral is not necessarily the best shape possible Coulais thought it was just the best out of the few the scientists tested. 40
Coulais says it is too early to say whether chocolate will soon be made differently thanks to this research. He is working with a couple of organizations. They are studying how it might be applied.
A. It could also make treats even tastier.
B. Chocolate is delicious for many reasons.
C. This would then change the way it breaks.
D. The scientists printed one chocolate in a simple S-shape.
E. A machine is used to make a 3D object from digital files.
F. And there would be better ones if we would search more.
G. The scientists also used a machine to split the various chocolate shapes.

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。
Criticism hurts even when it’s constructive.____16____ Do you pretend you didn’t hear or do you argue back to defend yourself In fact, there are actually other ways of handling criticism! The next time someone gives you feedback, try doing the following things instead.
Don’t react immediately.
Getting angry can happen really fast. Sometimes all it takes is a misplaced word or the wrong one. While it’s normal to feel this way, try to cool off and stay calm.____17____After all, you don’t want to say something you’ll end up regretting later!
Assess the criticism.
Sometimes the best thing to do is to take a quick step back and assess the criticism: who said it and why ____18____Or are they just trying to be mean Taking a step back allows you to determine if perhaps the criticism has some real value, you hadn’t seen before or if it’s better to just brush off the comment.
Don’t take it personally.
Remember that sometimes people do things not to attack you personally, but to vent anger or frustration. So calm down and be as understanding as you can.____19____Meanwhile, let the other person know that their criticism was uncalled for.
____20____
If the criticism does actually have some truth to it, then the best thing to do is figure out how you can use it to improve. Get straight to the point and ask the person which part of your work they’d improve and how. That way you not only show you are interested in doing things better, but you are also involving the person who criticized you.
A．So how do you react
B．Use it to your advantage.
C．Polish your work carefully.
D．How about negative feedback catching us by surprise
E．Give yourself some time to process what you’ve heard before reacting.
F．Are they trying to help you, but did not communicate their point of view nicely
G．Choosing to take the right path is doing yourself a favor and not getting angry.

【导语】
本文是说明文，文章主要介绍了关于左撇子的一些有趣的事情。
36．
根据空前“Left-handed people make up around 12% of the global population. One really interesting fact that I picked up was from a scientist who believed that left-handed people tended to be more independent as a result of having to adapt to a world that is largely built for right-handed individuals.(左撇子约占全球人口的12%。我从一位科学家那里发现了一个非常有趣的事实，他认为左撇子往往更独立，因为他们必须适应一个主要为右撇子建立的世界)”可知研究发现左撇子更独立，根据后文“More likely to have allergies and sleep disorders(更容易有过敏和睡眠障碍)”可知接下来文章主要讲的是左撇子的一些有趣的事情，全文是总——分的结构，由此推知，空处承上启下，所以应该讲的是和左撇子有关的一些有趣的事情，E项Here are a few more fascinating left-handed people facts(这里有一些关于左撇子的有趣事实)承接上文，引出下文，符合上下文语境。故选E项。
37．
根据本段标题“More likely to have allergies and sleep disorders(更容易有过敏和睡眠障碍)”可知本段主要讲的是左撇子更容易有过敏和睡眠障碍，根据空前“A study found that left-handed people were 11 times more likely to suffer from allergies than right-handed folk.(一项研究发现，左撇子患过敏症的可能性是右撇子的11倍)”可知此处讲的是左撇子更容易患过敏症，所以可以推断接下来应该讲的是睡眠障碍问题，G项And lefties were two and a half times more likely to suffer from sleep disorders(左撇子患睡眠障碍的可能性是左撇子的2.5倍)指出了左撇子更容易患有睡眠障碍，符合上下文语境。故选G项。
38．
根据本段小标题“Left-handed people use the right side of the brain the most(左撇子使用右脑最多)”可知本段主要讲的是左撇子更容易使用右脑，根据空后“meaning that the right side controls the left side of the body and the other way around.(也就是说，大脑的右侧控制着身体的左侧，反之亦然)”可知此处是在对左右脑的交叉控制这一事实进行解释，所以空处应该指出大脑是交叉控制的这一事实，C项As we know, the brain is cross-wired(正如我们所知，大脑是交叉的)符合上下文语境。故选C项。
39．
根据本段小标题“Are left-handed people smarter (左撇子更聪明吗？)”可知本段主要围绕着左撇子的是不是更聪明来展开，根据空后“One 2007 study “Effect of handedness on intelligence level of students” shows that lefties are more likely to have higher IQ. However, another 2010 study “The relationship between hand preference,hand performance, and general cognitive ability” suggests the exact opposite!( 2007年一项名为“用手习惯对学生智力水平的影响”的研究表明，左撇子更有可能拥有更高的智商。然而，另一项2010年的研究“用手偏好、用手表现和一般认知能力之间的关系”得出了完全相反的结论！)”可知关于左撇子的智商问题不同日期的研究结果是不一样的。空处位于段首，应是对全段的概括，所以空处应该讲关于左撇子是不是更聪明这个问题的答案与消息来源的日期有关，D项This one varies depending on how dated your source is(这取决于你的资料来源的年代)明确指出关于左撇子是不是更聪明这个问题的答案与消息来源的日期有关，既回答了小标题的提问，同时也概括了全段，而且D项中的This one指代小标题的问题，符合上下文语境。故选D项。
40．
根据空后“Experiments showed that when given two tasks to complete simultaneously (同时), lefties performed best. This is because right-handed people tend to solve problems by breaking them down into parts and analyzing each piece one at a time. While left-handed people tend to look at the problem as a whole and use pattern-matching to try and solve it.(实验表明，当同时完成两项任务时，左撇子的表现最好。这是因为右撇子倾向于把问题分解成几个部分，并一次分析一个部分来解决问题。而左撇子倾向于把问题看作一个整体，并使用模式匹配来尝试解决它)”可知左撇子在解决问题时更倾向于整体解决问题。空处为本段标题，所以空处应该讲的是左撇子的另外一个有趣的事实——更善于把问题看作一个整体来解决，A项Better at multi-tasking(更善于同时处理多项任务)指出左撇子的另一个有趣的事实即善于处理多项任务，符合上下文语境。故选A项。

【导语】
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些好的方法帮助你更好地处理批评。
16．
根据空后内容“Do you pretend you didn’t hear or do you argue back to defend yourself (你是假装没听见还是反驳为自己辩护？)”可知，下文提到的是面对批评的时候，你会有何反应。选项A“So how do you react (那么你的反应是什么？)”引出下文的答句，与下文内容保持一致。故选A。
17．

18．
根据上文“who said it and why (是谁说的，为什么？)”以及下文“Or are they just trying to be mean (或者他们只是想变得刻薄？)”可知，上下文都是和批评相关，围绕评判进行的评估和提问。选项F“Are they trying to help you, but did not communicate their point of view nicely (他们是否试图帮助你，但没有很好地表达他们的观点？)”也是提问，同时也和批评相关，符合上下文主要内容。故选F。
19．
根据空前内容“Remember that sometimes people do things not to attack you personally, but to vent anger or frustration. So calm down and be as understanding as you can.(记住，有时候人们做一些事情并不是针对你个人，而是为了发泄愤怒或沮丧。所以冷静下来，尽可能地理解。)”可知，作者建议我们当被批评的时候，要冷静下来尽可能去理解对方。选项G“Choosing to take the right path is doing yourself a favor and not getting angry.(选择走正确的道路就是帮自己一个忙，不要生气。)”与上文内容一致，都是建议我们要选择不生气，冷静。故选G。
20．
空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据下文“If the criticism does actually have some truth to it, then the best thing to do is figure out how you can use it to improve. Get straight to the point and ask the person which part of your work they’d improve and how. That way you not only show you are interested in doing things better, but you are also involving the person who criticized you.(如果批评确实有些道理，那么最好的办法就是找出如何利用它来改进。开门见山地问面试官你工作的哪一部分需要改进，以及如何改进。这样一来，你不仅表现出你有兴趣把事情做得更好，而且还能让批评你的人参与进来。)”可知，作者建议我们，当批评确实有道理的时候，我们可以选择利用批评找到提升自己的方式，所以本段的主要内容就是利用批评。选项B“Use it to your advantage.(充分利用它使它对你有利。)”符合本段内容。故选B。

根据本段标题“More likely to have allergies and sleep disorders(更容易有过敏和睡眠障碍)”可知本段主要讲的是左撇子更容易有过敏和睡眠障碍，根据空前“A study found that left-handed people were 11 times more likely to suffer from allergies than right-handed folk.(一项研究发现，左撇子患过敏症的可能性是右撇子的11倍)”可知此处讲的是左撇子更容易患过敏症，所以可以推断接下来应该讲的是睡眠障碍问题，G项And lefties were two and a half times more likely to suffer from sleep disorders(左撇子患睡眠障碍的可能性是左撇子的2.5倍)指出了左撇子更容易患有睡眠障碍，符合上下文语境。故选G项。
38．
根据本段小标题“Left-handed people use the right side of the brain the most(左撇子使用右脑最多)”可知本段主要讲的是左撇子更容易使用右脑，根据空后“meaning that the right side controls the left side of the body and the other way around.(也就是说，大脑的右侧控制着身体的左侧，反之亦然)”可知此处是在对左右脑的交叉控制这一事实进行解释，所以空处应该指出大脑是交叉控制的这一事实，C项As we know, the brain is cross-wired(正如我们所知，大脑是交叉的)符合上下文语境。故选C项。
39．
根据本段小标题“Are left-handed people smarter (左撇子更聪明吗？)”可知本段主要围绕着左撇子的是不是更聪明来展开，根据空后“One 2007 study “Effect of handedness on intelligence level of students” shows that lefties are more likely to have higher IQ. However, another 2010 study “The relationship between hand preference,hand performance, and general cognitive ability” suggests the exact opposite!( 2007年一项名为“用手习惯对学生智力水平的影响”的研究表明，左撇子更有可能拥有更高的智商。然而，另一项2010年的研究“用手偏好、用手表现和一般认知能力之间的关系”得出了完全相反的结论！)”可知关于左撇子的智商问题不同日期的研究结果是不一样的。空处位于段首，应是对全段的概括，所以空处应该讲关于左撇子是不是更聪明这个问题的答案与消息来源的日期有关，D项This one varies depending on how dated your source is(这取决于你的资料来源的年代)明确指出关于左撇子是不是更聪明这个问题的答案与消息来源的日期有关，既回答了小标题的提问，同时也概括了全段，而且D项中的This one指代小标题的问题，符合上下文语境。故选D项。
40．
根据空后“Experiments showed that when given two tasks to complete simultaneously (同时), lefties performed best. This is because right-handed people tend to solve problems by breaking them down into parts and analyzing each piece one at a time. While left-handed people tend to look at the problem as a whole and use pattern-matching to try and solve it.(实验表明，当同时完成两项任务时，左撇子的表现最好。这是因为右撇子倾向于把问题分解成几个部分，并一次分析一个部分来解决问题。而左撇子倾向于把问题看作一个整体，并使用模式匹配来尝试解决它)”可知左撇子在解决问题时更倾向于整体解决问题。空处为本段标题，所以空处应该讲的是左撇子的另外一个有趣的事实——更善于把问题看作一个整体来解决，A项Better at multi-tasking(更善于同时处理多项任务)指出左撇子的另一个有趣的事实即善于处理多项任务，符合上下文语境。故选A项。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些好的方法帮助你更好地处理批评。
16．
根据空后内容“Do you pretend you didn’t hear or do you argue back to defend yourself (你是假装没听见还是反驳为自己辩护？)”可知，下文提到的是面对批评的时候，你会有何反应。选项A“So how do you react (那么你的反应是什么？)”引出下文的答句，与下文内容保持一致。故选A。
17．
根据空前内容“While it’s normal to feel this way, try to cool off and stay calm.(虽然这种感觉很正常，但试着冷静下来，保持冷静。)”可知，作者建议当生气的时候我们要试着冷静下来。选项E“Give yourself some time to process what you’ve heard before reacting.(在做出反应之前，给自己一些时间来消化所听到的内容。)”与上文内容保持一致，同时引出下文“After all, you don’t want to say something you’ll end up regretting later!(毕竟，你不想说一些你以后会后悔的话吧！)”，因为只有给自己一些时间来消化所听到的内容才能让自己不会说出后悔的话。故选E。
18．
根据上文“who said it and why (是谁说的，为什么？)”以及下文“Or are they just trying to be mean (或者他们只是想变得刻薄？)”可知，上下文都是和批评相关，围绕评判进行的评估和提问。选项F“Are they trying to help you, but did not communicate their point of view nicely (他们是否试图帮助你，但没有很好地表达他们的观点？)”也是提问，同时也和批评相关，符合上下文主要内容。故选F。
19．
根据空前内容“Remember that sometimes people do things not to attack you personally, but to vent anger or frustration. So calm down and be as understanding as you can.(记住，有时候人们做一些事情并不是针对你个人，而是为了发泄愤怒或沮丧。所以冷静下来，尽可能地理解。)”可知，作者建议我们当被批评的时候，要冷静下来尽可能去理解对方。选项G“Choosing to take the right path is doing yourself a favor and not getting angry.(选择走正确的道路就是帮自己一个忙，不要生气。)”与上文内容一致，都是建议我们要选择不生气，冷静。故选G。
20．
空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据下文“If the criticism does actually have some truth to it, then the best thing to do is figure out how you can use it to improve. Get straight to the point and ask the person which part of your work they’d improve and how. That way you not only show you are interested in doing things better, but you are also involving the person who criticized you.(如果批评确实有些道理，那么最好的办法就是找出如何利用它来改进。开门见山地问面试官你工作的哪一部分需要改进，以及如何改进。这样一来，你不仅表现出你有兴趣把事情做得更好，而且还能让批评你的人参与进来。)”可知，作者建议我们，当批评确实有道理的时候，我们可以选择利用批评找到提升自己的方式，所以本段的主要内容就是利用批评。选项B“Use it to your advantage.(充分利用它使它对你有利。)”符合本段内容。故选B。
