27.(8分)It was a week before I saw Captain Nemo again.Every morning,I noticed fresh air coming into the rooms and I knew that the Nautilus had surfaced.I would go out and see the sunrise.
Then I received a note from Captain Nemo.He invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island.Ned was excited because he thought there he could find a chance to escape.When I saw Captain Nemo the next day,I asked him why he was so interested in Crespo Island. "I thought you preferred the sea to being on land."
"I do," replied the Captain, "But these forests are under the sea." During breakfast,he explained that he had made diving suits that used special air tanks.These tanks would allow us to stay under the water for ten hours.He had also made lights that worked in electric batteries.When Ned realized that we were not going onto land for our hunting trip,he decided not to come at all.
Conseil and I put on our diving suits,and so did Captain Nemo and one of his men.We stepped into a room and closed the door.The room was filled with water,and another door opened.We must go through it,and we were on the sea floor.It was an amazing experience.
We were about ten metres under the water.The light from the sun reached us.Everything looked very colourful.We walked over the fine sand and enjoyed the colours of the shells,fish and seaweed.Conseil and I followed Captain Nemo and his man as they crossed a large grassy area.We were going deeper and deeper.Two hours later,we were a hundred metres under the water.The suits worked very well,and it was easy to walk and breathe.
At one hundred metres deep,we could still see quite well,and Captain Nemo stopped and pointed to some dark shapes.This was the forest.The "trees" in the forest were giant seaweed,and all their branches were vertical (垂直的).We could not stop looking at them.Fish swam around the branches like birds in a forest.Small shrub (灌木)grew under the large seaweed trees.Some of them had flowers.
We walked through this forest for about an hour,and then we lay down to rest.I was not hungry,but I was very sleepy.We all slept,and when we woke up,we walked further.
(1)What do you think the Nautilus is?
A.A kind of ship under the sea.
B.A kind of fish in the sea.
C.A kind of plane in the sky.
D.A kind of transport on land.
(2)How many people went on the hunting trip in the forests of Crespo Land?

C.Four.
D.Five.

28.(6分)Time files when you play on your smartphone(智能手机).But when you get down to the real business of work and study,one hour feels like a year.Why are we so attracted by smartphones but easily bored by studying?
It all bolls down to something small and hard to see:dopamine(多巴胺).Dopamine is a"pleasure chemical"that makes people feel good.Our brains give it out when we eat yummy food,after we exercise or when we get a prize.
Compared with studying,playing on smartphones causes our brains to give out more dopamine.For example,checking your phone for a text leads to a 400 percent increase in dopamine.But why?
When we visit social media,we don't know what we'll see next,or who will give opinions about things we post(发布).This"magic of maybe",makes the dopamine system active.We get excited wondering if we have messages from our friends.When our expectations(期待) are met,dopamine is given out.
And to find more dopamine(多巴胺),we continue checking our phones.Studying doesn't provide such magic.Without this excitement,we get bored much more easily.
Can we do something to change that?According to scientists,apps can become less attractive if we turn off notifications(通知) or change the screen colors to black and white.We can also set time limits on apps to avoid using them too much.
As for studying,you could check your progress daily or weekly and reward yourself for it,said Daniel Wong,writer of The Happy Student.You could also search for interesting topics connected with your textbook.Use what you've learned to make an influence in the real world.This will make knowledge much more interesting to learn.
(1)According to the article,when students study,
A.they feel time pass quickly.
B.they are getting happier.
C.they feel time pass more slowly.
D.their brain give out more dopamine.
(2)When do people have more dopamine?
A.When they know what will happen next.
B.When they stay at home.
C.When their expectations are met.
D.When they face fewer unknown things.
(3)Which of the following might Daniel Wong suggest to make learning interesting?
A.Setting time limits on everything you do.
B.Stopping playing and finding more interests in real life.
C.Using what you learn from textbooks to do things in real life.
D.Reading the interesting part in your textbooks before reading the others.

42.(10分)What's it like to be 75 years old?I recently took part in an experiment—Ann,an expert(专家) on ageing(老龄化),turned me from a boy to an old man.
Ann started with my eyes.She asked me to wear a pair of glasses which only allowed me to see things straight ahead of me.She then added heavy straps(带子)around my arms and legs.This was to make me both weaker and slower.Wearing two pairs of plastic gloves helped me to experience the poor sense of touch that comes with age.Finally,she gave me a pair of earplugs(耳塞) that made me unable to hear very clearly.
Starting to feel my new age,we went to a shopping center.I wanted to buy a sweater for my 78﹣year﹣old grandfather.It was scary to step out.The glasses made everything seem so bright.With my poor hearing,the world seemed unsafe.I could understand why many old people prefer to stay in their homes.
Going on public transport was terrible.I was pushed by young people in a hurry.Even finding the right money for the ticket was a problem.I felt quite embarrassed(尴尬).
When we finally reached the shopping center,Ann guided me to a shop selling men's clothes.It was noisy,and I chose a brown sweater."Can we stop for a cup of coffee?"I asked Ann.Suddenly I realized that was what my grandfather said whenever we went shopping.Ann agreed,and sitting down helped me relax a little.
I took off my glasses,my gloves and took out my earplugs.I talked with Ann.She told me she had done this experiment many times.She hoped to make people understand how hard life is for the old,and be more patient with them.
It was a meaningful experience for me.

(1)Did Ann start with the writer's ears?
(2)Why did the writer go to a shopping center?
(3)How old is the writer's grandfather?

(5)Which word might the writer use to describe(描述) his experience as an old man?

27.(8分)It was a week before I saw Captain Nemo again.Every morning,I noticed fresh air coming into the rooms and I knew that the Nautilus had surfaced.I would go out and see the sunrise.
Then I received a note from Captain Nemo.He invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island.Ned was excited because he thought there he could find a chance to escape.When I saw Captain Nemo the next day,I asked him why he was so interested in Crespo Island. "I thought you preferred the sea to being on land."
"I do," replied the Captain, "But these forests are under the sea." During breakfast,he explained that he had made diving suits that used special air tanks.These tanks would allow us to stay under the water for ten hours.He had also made lights that worked in electric batteries.When Ned realized that we were not going onto land for our hunting trip,he decided not to come at all.
Conseil and I put on our diving suits,and so did Captain Nemo and one of his men.We stepped into a room and closed the door.The room was filled with water,and another door opened.We must go through it,and we were on the sea floor.It was an amazing experience.
We were about ten metres under the water.The light from the sun reached us.Everything looked very colourful.We walked over the fine sand and enjoyed the colours of the shells,fish and seaweed.Conseil and I followed Captain Nemo and his man as they crossed a large grassy area.We were going deeper and deeper.Two hours later,we were a hundred metres under the water.The suits worked very well,and it was easy to walk and breathe.
At one hundred metres deep,we could still see quite well,and Captain Nemo stopped and pointed to some dark shapes.This was the forest.The "trees" in the forest were giant seaweed,and all their branches were vertical (垂直的).We could not stop looking at them.Fish swam around the branches like birds in a forest.Small shrub (灌木)grew under the large seaweed trees.Some of them had flowers.

28.(6分)Time files when you play on your smartphone(智能手机).But when you get down to the real business of work and study,one hour feels like a year.Why are we so attracted by smartphones but easily bored by studying?
It all bolls down to something small and hard to see:dopamine(多巴胺).Dopamine is a"pleasure chemical"that makes people feel good.Our brains give it out when we eat yummy food,after we exercise or when we get a prize.
Compared with studying,playing on smartphones causes our brains to give out more dopamine.For example,checking your phone for a text leads to a 400 percent increase in dopamine.But why?
When we visit social media,we don't know what we'll see next,or who will give opinions about things we post(发布).This"magic of maybe",makes the dopamine system active.We get excited wondering if we have messages from our friends.When our expectations(期待) are met,dopamine is given out.
And to find more dopamine(多巴胺),we continue checking our phones.Studying doesn't provide such magic.Without this excitement,we get bored much more easily.
Can we do something to change that?According to scientists,apps can become less attractive if we turn off notifications(通知) or change the screen colors to black and white.We can also set time limits on apps to avoid using them too much.
As for studying,you could check your progress daily or weekly and reward yourself for it,said Daniel Wong,writer of The Happy Student.You could also search for interesting topics connected with your textbook.Use what you've learned to make an influence in the real world.This will make knowledge much more interesting to learn.
(1)According to the article,when students study, C
A.they feel time pass quickly.
B.they are getting happier.
C.they feel time pass more slowly.
D.their brain give out more dopamine.
(2)When do people have more dopamine? C
A.When they know what will happen next.
B.When they stay at home.
C.When their expectations are met.
D.When they face fewer unknown things.
(3)Which of the following might Daniel Wong suggest to make learning interesting? C
A.Setting time limits on everything you do.
B.Stopping playing and finding more interests in real life.
C.Using what you learn from textbooks to do things in real life.
D.Reading the interesting part in your textbooks before reading the others.
【分析】本文主要讲述了为什么我们会对手机上的应用感到着迷,但对学习却感到无聊。原因在于多巴胺,它是一种"愉悦化学物质",会让人感觉良好。相比于学习,玩手机会让我们的大脑释放更多的多巴胺。社交媒体的"或许的魔力"会让我们的多巴胺系统活跃起来,我们会期待着朋友们的信息。而学习则缺乏这种刺激,容易让我们感到无聊。科学家建议我们可以关闭应用程序的通知或将屏幕颜色改为黑白色,以减少应用程序的吸引力。此外,我们还可以为自己设定应用程序的时间限制,以避免过度使用。对于学习,我们可以每天或每周检查自己的进度,并为自己设定奖励,也可以寻找与教科书相关的有趣话题,将所学知识应用到现实生活中,这样会让知识更有趣味性。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据第一段But when you get down to the real business of work and study,one hour feels like a year.(但当你回归到真正的工作或学习,一小时好像一年一样。)可知当学习时,学生会觉得时间过得慢。故选C。
(2)细节理解题。根据第四段When our expectations(期待) are met,dopamine is given out.(当我们的期待得到满足时,多巴胺就会释放出来。)可知当期待得到满足时,多巴胺就会释放出来。故选C。
(3)细节理解题。根据最后一段You could also search for interesting topics connected with your textbook.Use what you've learned to make an influence in the real world.This will make knowledge much more interesting to learn.(你也可以搜索与教科书相关的有趣的话题。利用你所学的知识在现实中产生影响,这会使知识更有趣。)可知你用书本上学到的知识在现实中使用。故选C。

42.(10分)What's it like to be 75 years old?I recently took part in an experiment—Ann,an expert(专家) on ageing(老龄化),turned me from a boy to an old man.
Ann started with my eyes.She asked me to wear a pair of glasses which only allowed me to see things straight ahead of me.She then added heavy straps(带子)around my arms and legs.This was to make me both weaker and slower.Wearing two pairs of plastic gloves helped me to experience the poor sense of touch that comes with age.Finally,she gave me a pair of earplugs(耳塞) that made me unable to hear very clearly.
Starting to feel my new age,we went to a shopping center.I wanted to buy a sweater for my 78﹣year﹣old grandfather.It was scary to step out.The glasses made everything seem so bright.With my poor hearing,the world seemed unsafe.I could understand why many old people prefer to stay in their homes.
Going on public transport was terrible.I was pushed by young people in a hurry.Even finding the right money for the ticket was a problem.I felt quite embarrassed(尴尬).
When we finally reached the shopping center,Ann guided me to a shop selling men's clothes.It was noisy,and I chose a brown sweater."Can we stop for a cup of coffee?"I asked Ann.Suddenly I realized that was what my grandfather said whenever we went shopping.Ann agreed,and sitting down helped me relax a little.
I took off my glasses,my gloves and took out my earplugs.I talked with Ann.She told me she had done this experiment many times.She hoped to make people understand how hard life is for the old,and be more patient with them.
It was a meaningful experience for me.
