Risks at Your Table
Some of the “everyday foods” we eat hide some unhealthy features, which most people ignore. We take a look at some of the health risks being served to you!
Energy Drinks
You’re tired and you still have to face a physical or mental stress, so what a better friend than an energy drink to overcome the effort However, most energy drinks contain chemicals that are harmful if taken in quantities, with effects that are similar to the ones from several other illegal drugs, smoking and alcohol consumption.
White Bread
White bread is poorer in fiber and protein than other bread alternatives. Fiber helps our body to understand when it has eaten enough. The sense of fullness is important if we don’t want an extra-consumption of calories.
Breakfast Cereals
Breakfast cereals(麦片) fill out lots of shelves in every supermarket you get inside. They’re one of the favorite foods for our first meal of the day, because they’re simply delicious. What many people are not aware of is that these products are loaded with GM(转基因) organisms which affect our immune system. If you really can’t separate yourselves from breakfast cereals, maybe you could start considering some organic breakfast cereal alternatives.
Fat-Free Foods
Fat-free foods may look like the gold mine for a perfectly balanced and satisfying diet but the reality is widely different. Fats are essential for many body functions and for its healthy development. A fat-cut is not advisable, especially when your workouts are regular. Plus, fat-free foods are usually high in processed sugar.
21. Which is particularly improper for a man going to the gym regularly
A. Energy drinks. B. White bread.
C. Breakfast cereals. D. Fat-free foods.
22. What do the four foods have in common

Do you know what you’d like to be when you grow up It takes most people many years to find out. For the young artist Alexandra Nechita, it never really seemed to be a question. From the day she began drawing at the age of two, she was an artist. Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in 1985 and moved to California when she was still a baby. As a little child, she loved colouring in her colouring books. Her parents hoped she could spend more time playing with other children, so they took away her colouring books. Alexandra began drawing her own pictures and colouring them in.
By the time Alexandra was seven years old, she had begun painting with oil paints. When Alexandra took a local art class, her teacher was amazed at the young artist’s unusual style of painting. Alexandra’s work was similar in some ways to the paintings by famous artists like Picasso. These artists did not use a realistic style of painting. They allowed their imaginations to play an important part in their work. The interesting thing was that little Alexandra had never seen the work of these artists. People called her “Little Picasso”. This was a great honour, but Alexandra’s style of painting was all her own.
Alexandra’s first public show was held at a Los Angeles public library when she was only eight years old. People were amazed at how young Alexandra was, but mostly they loved her imaginative artwork. It did not take long for Alexandra and her work to become famous. She appeared on television programmes and in newspapers and magazines all over the world. The sale of a single piece can earn the young artist thousands of dollars. But that is not why Alexandra creates artwork. She just cannot imagine doing anything else that would bring her such joy and satisfaction.
Today, Alexandra is a full-time artist. She also works to help support the arts in schools. Alexandra is a strong believer in the power of art as a tool of communication and a bridge to building peace throughout the world.
24. When did Alexandra begin drawing pictures
A. At the age of eight. B. At the age of seven.

D. her style of painting was unusual

A. Only painting can make her so happy and satisfied.
B. Only money can make her so happy and satisfied.
C. Anything can make her feel happy and satisfied.
D. Nothing can make her feel happy and satisfied.
27. According to the passage, which word can best describe Alexandra
A. Polite. B. Generous. C. Patient. D. Creative.
C
Childhood can bring a lot of awe (敬畏). Research also suggests that awe is important in promoting well-being beyond our individual lives — it can encourage our children to care for others.
A recent study by researchers Eftychia Stamkou, Keltner, and their colleagues invited children aged 8-13 to take part in an experiment. In the awe group, children were offered a short part of a movie that features a child transformed into a seal (海豹) and exploring the sea while in the joy group, children were offered a short part of another movie where friends were celebrating.
Researchers measured children’s kindness toward poor families by inviting children to support their food drive by spending as much time as they wanted in counting donated things, to make sure the poor got access to the donated food as quickly as possible. They also invited children to donate the reward they earned from taking part in the research (e.g., a snack or a museum ticket) to a poor family.
The results Children who watched the awe-inspiring video spent more time counting food donations and donated their rewards to poor families more often compared to the children who watched the joy-inspiring video. These findings highlight that awe-inspiring art can motivate children to be sympathetic toward people who have been forcibly displaced (离开家园) from their countries of origin.
As parents, we can also seek out everyday experiences of awe in our communities to share with our children, like wall paintings of the city scenery and folk art. Awe can be inspired by music, like the harmonious sounds of a wooden guitar and the beat of a drum. Awesome architecture, like symphony halls, museums, and even features like staircases, can be a way to experience awe with our children.
28. What does the research find
A. Awe should be inspired early. B. Awe helps kids be more generous.
C. Individual lives affect kids’ health. D. Training awe gives kids excitement.
29. What do we know about the children in the experiment
A. They watched different movies. B. They commented on the videos.
C They were asked some questions. D. They donated money to poor families.
30. Why did the awe group support the food drive more
A. They learned this from a video. B. They were motivated by the movie.
C. They liked to contribute to charity. D. They were reminded by the homeless.
31. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A Give reasons for feeling awe. B. List experiences of awe.
C. Show benefits of awe to kids. D. Appeal for developing awe in kids.
D
Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.
Environmentalists don’t dispute(质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.
32. What has Steven Stein been hired to do
A. Help increase grocery sales.
B. Recycle the waste material.
C. Stop things falling off trucks.
D. Argue for the use of plastic bags.
33. What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Bans on plastic bags.
B. Effects of city development.
C. Headaches caused by garbage.
D. Plastic bags hung in trees.
34. What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers
A. They are quite expensive.
B. Replacing them can be difficult.
C. They are less strong than plastic bags.
D. Producing them requires more energy.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Plastic, Paper or Neither
B. Industry, Pollution and Environment
C. Recycle or Throw Away
D. Garbage Collection and Waste Control

细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In the awe group, children were offered a short part of a movie that features a child transformed into a seal (海豹) and exploring the sea while in the joy group, children were offered a short part of another movie where friends were celebrating.(在敬畏组，孩子们观看了一个孩子变成海豹探索海洋的电影的一小段，而在欢乐组，孩子们观看了另一个朋友们正在庆祝的电影的一小段)”可知，参与实验的孩子们被分成了两组，观看不同的电影片段（一组观看的是关于孩子变成海豹飞越城市的片段，另一组观看的是朋友们庆祝的片段）。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“it can encourage our children to care for others(它可以鼓励我们的孩子去关心别人)”及第四段中的“These findings highlight that awe-inspiring art can motivate children to be sympathetic toward people who have been forcibly displaced (离开家园) from their countries of origin.( 这些发现强调，令人敬畏的艺术可以激发孩子们对那些被迫离开原籍国的人的同情)”可推知，这些孩子之所以更多地支持食品义卖活动，是因为他们受到让人敬畏的视频的影响，对贫困家庭产生了同情。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“As parents, we can also seek out everyday experiences of awe in our communities to share with our children, like wall paintings of the city scenery and folk art. Awe can be inspired by music, like the harmonious sounds of a wooden guitar and the beat of a drum. Awesome architecture, like symphony halls, museums, and even features like staircases, can be a way to experience awe with our children.(作为父母，我们也可以在我们的社区中寻找日常的敬畏体验，与我们的孩子分享，比如城市风景的壁画和民间艺术。音乐可以激发我们的敬畏，比如木制吉他的和谐声音和鼓声。令人敬畏的建筑，如交响乐厅、博物馆，甚至是楼梯等特征，都可以成为与孩子一起体验敬畏的一种方式)”可知，作者在最后一段提供了一系列可以与孩子们分享的关于敬畏的日常体验。由此推知，作者意图在这一段呼吁父母在孩子们的成长中培养他们的敬畏感。故选D。

Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.
Environmentalists don’t dispute(质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.
32. What has Steven Stein been hired to do
A. Help increase grocery sales.
B. Recycle the waste material.
C. Stop things falling off trucks.
D. Argue for the use of plastic bags.
33. What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Bans on plastic bags.
B. Effects of city development.
C. Headaches caused by garbage.
D. Plastic bags hung in trees.
34. What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers
A. They are quite expensive.
B. Replacing them can be difficult.
C. They are less strong than plastic bags.
D. Producing them requires more energy.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Plastic, Paper or Neither
B. Industry, Pollution and Environment
C. Recycle or Throw Away
D. Garbage Collection and Waste Control
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章分析了几种购物袋使用情况，塑料袋会造成环境问题，纸袋尽管容易回收，但生产和运输需要更多的能源，环保主义者希望消费者使用耐用可重复使用的袋子。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.和第二段中plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.可知，塑料袋生产商雇用Steven Stein是为了证明他们的产品并不像大多数人想象的那样对地球有害，为使用塑料袋进行辩护。故选D。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。上文介绍在许多美国大城市塑料袋被禁用，看到这种现状，塑料袋生产商雇用Steven Stein等科学家是为了证明他们的产品并不像大多数人想象的那样对地球有害。headwinds意为“逆风”，此处指塑料袋被禁用的现状，即Bans on plastic bags，故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make.可知，生产耐用且能重复使用的袋子需要更多的能源，故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。文章讲述了使用塑料袋会造成环境问题，纸袋容易回收，但生产和运输需要更多的能源，环保主义者希望消费者使用耐用可重复使用的袋子。对这三种方式进行了对比，Plastic, Paper or Neither既能概括全文，又能吸引读者，最适合作为标题。故选A。
【点睛】概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，要看懂全文的主要内容，明白了主要内容就能准确概括文章标题)。小题4要求概括标题，本文讲述了使用塑料袋造成的环境问题，纸袋容易回收，但生产和运输需要更多的能源，希望消费者使用耐用可重复使用的袋子。对这三种方式进行了对比，Plastic, Paper or Neither既能概括全文，又能吸引读者，适合作为标题。

【36题详解】
根据上一句“The Internet has become a kindness desert, a place where few flowers bloom. Bullying is pretty common.(互联网已经变成了一片善良的沙漠，一个几乎没有鲜花盛开的地方。欺凌是很常见的)”可知，网络欺凌很常见，G项“Studies have found that nearly one-third of all students are bullied each year. (研究发现，每年有近三分之一的学生受到欺凌)”指出在网络欺凌中，学生欺凌现象是一个很严重的问题；下文“According to those bullied, they’re usually seen as being different from the crowd. They are unique. (据那些被欺负的人说，他们通常被认为与人群不同。他们是独一无二的)”中的those bullied指代G项中的受到欺凌的近三分之一的学生，下文说明了他们被欺凌的原因，上下文衔接连贯，故选G项。
【37题详解】
本段中心句“Being bullied is a frustrating and painful experience.(被欺负是一种令人沮丧和痛苦的经历)”可知，本段将谈及网络欺凌带来的心理创伤；上文“Online bullying can really hurt others, and it can have serious consequences. (网络欺凌确实会伤害他人，并可能产生严重后果)”指出网络欺凌会产生严重后果，下文应具体化这些后果，D项“Being bullied can make you feel alone, scared, and hopeless.(被欺负会让你感到孤独、害怕和绝望)”承接上文，上下文衔接连贯。故选D项。
【38题详解】
本段中心句“Don’t blame yourself.(不要责怪自己)”及下文“It’s only the bully’s fault, so don’t blame yourself for his or her shortcomings.(这只是霸凌者的错，所以不要因为他或她的缺点而责怪自己)”可知，欺凌事件错在欺凌者，F项“If you are being bullied, it’s essential to know that it is never your fault.(如果你被欺负了，重要的是要知道这绝不是你的错)”指出被欺凌者不要责备自己，因为不是你的错，下文承接F项，语意一致，衔接连贯。故选F项。
【39题详解】
此处考查本段中心句。下文“Try as you might to ignore the bullies when they are saying ugly things about you. Remind yourself that you are a great person and that nothing the bullies say matters.(当那些恶霸说你坏话的时候，尽量不去理会他们。提醒自己，你是一个了不起的人，那些恶霸说什么都不重要)”的Remind yourself that you are a great person与B项“Be sure you’re wonderful.(一定要表现出色)”语意一致，故选B项。
【40题详解】
本段中心句“Speak out.(说出来)”及上文“Find someone you can talk to, your teacher or your parent and tell them what’s going on. (找一个你可以倾诉的人，你的老师或父母，告诉他们发生了什么)”可知，一旦被欺凌，一定要说出来，告诉可以倾诉的人，C项“Adults can offer help if they know about the problem. (如果成年人知道这个问题，他们可以提供帮助)”中的Adults呼应上文的your teacher or your parent，know与上文的tell them what’s going on呼应，这些成年人在得知你的情况后，会给予帮助，上下文衔接连贯，故选C项。

【56题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：它是由茶树的叶子制成的，经过氧化过程，使其具有独特的味道和颜色。leaf意为“叶子”，是可数名词，结合句意可知，叶子不止一个，应用名词复数形式，作from的宾语。故填leaves.
【57题详解】

【62题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：它富含抗氧化剂，有助于保护身体免受自由基的伤害，降低患慢性疾病的风险。protect...from/against...意为“保护……免受……”，是固定搭配，故填from或against。
【63题详解】
考查动词语态。句意：此外，红茶被认为可以改善心脏健康，促进新陈代谢，增强精神警觉。句子描述的是事实，故用一般现在时，此处主语black tea和believe“相信”之间是被动关系，需用一般现在时的被动语态，主语是第三人称单数，be动词用is。故填is believed。
【64题详解】
考查代词。句意：红茶的悠久历史、独特的风味和众多的健康益处使它成为茶爱好者的流行选择。tea为不可数名词，此处需用it指代前文中的 black tea，作make的宾语。故填it。

【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词和动词短语。句意：大多数乡村歌曲都是关于希望的，同时还夹杂着大量的幽默。根据汉语意思提示可知，此处为动词短语throw in“添加，投入”，且此处为with复合结构，其中的动词应为非谓语形式，plenty of humour和throw in为被动关系，所以为过去分词形式。故填thrown in。
77. Students prefer to _________ ________ (依靠) peers to relieve stress and anxiety. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】 ①. rely##depend ②. on
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语和不定式。句意：学生喜欢依靠同伴来缓解压力和焦虑。“依靠”是固定短语rely/depend on，prefer to do是固定短语，意为“更喜欢做某事”，因此空格处动词用原形，故填rely/depend，on。
78. It’s time __________ (释放), relieve the stress, and break out of routine. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】to let loose
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语。句意：是该放松、缓解压力、打破常规的时候了。结合“relieve the stress”可知，“释放”应用动词短语let loose，且此处用固定句型It’s time to do sth.表示“是时候做某事了”，let需用不定式的形式。故填to let loose。
79. Soon you’ll flow through your daily routines __________ (不费力，轻松地). （根据汉语提示完成句子）
【答案】with ease
【解析】
【详解】考查介词短语。句意：很快你就能轻松地完成日常工作了。根据汉语提示“不费力，轻松地”可知，此处应填入介词短语with ease，意为“轻松地”，作状语修饰动词flow。故填with ease。
80. A great number of farmers and herdsmen have become businessmen, __________ (投身于) the mainstream of the market economy. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】throwing themselves into
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语和非谓语动词。句意：一大批农牧民成为商人，投身到市场经济的主流之中。“投身于”可用动词短语throw oneself into，指以极大的精力和决心开始做某事，且句子已有谓语，空处为非谓语动词，throw和A great number of farmers and herdsmen逻辑上是主动关系，应用throw的现在分词形式，作状语，oneself需变为themselves。故填throwing themselves into。
第三节(每小题1分，满分10分)
在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
81. By the end of he was 14 years old, he __________ (learn) advanced mathematics by himself. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】had learnt##had learned
【解析】
【详解】考查时态。句意：到14岁的时候，他已经自学了高等数学。根据上文By the end of he was 14 years old可知为过去的过去，用过去完成时。故填had learnt/learned。
82. No one can avoid __________ (influence) by advertisements. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】being influenced
【解析】
【详解】考查动名词。句意：没有人能避免受到广告的影响。分析句子可知，本句的谓语动词是avoid，所以设空处应该填入名词或动名词作动词avoid的宾语。又因为主语No one与influence之间为被动关系，所以用动名词的被动形式being influenced。故填being influenced。
83. ________（see） as different from other kids when I was very young had an effect on my later life. (所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】Being seen
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：当我很小的时候，被认为与其他孩子不同，这对我以后的生活产生了影响。分析句子结构可知，句中缺少主语，所以用动名词作主语。逻辑主语I与see之间为被动关系，所以动名词的被动形式。根据句意，故填Being seen。
84. All we have to do for our students is ___________ (aid) them in learning English with a comparative method. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】aid##to aid
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：我们为学生所要做的就是用比较的方法帮助他们学习英语。不定式形式作表语，说明主语内容，且主语部分含有to do，空处的不定式符号to可省略。故填aid/to aid。
85. It is essential for the figures __________ (update) on a regular basis, which is important for our research. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to be updated
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：定期更新数据是必要的，这对我们的研究很重要。根据“It is essential for the figures”可知，此处用固定句型It is essential for… to do sth.表示“让……做某事是必要的”，it是形式主语，真正的主语用不定式形式，且update和the figures逻辑上是被动关系，因此应用update的不定式被动语态。故填to be updated。
86. ________ (overcome) by curiosity, the boy looked out of the window. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Overcome
【解析】
【详解】考查过去分词。句意：出于好奇，男孩向窗外看去。本句已有谓语looked out of且无连词，动词overcome用非谓语形式，逻辑主语the boy与动词overcome是被动关系，overcome用过去分词表作状语，首字母大写。故填Overcome。
87. Hearing the unexpected news, Mary froze with shock, as if __________(root) to the spot. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】rooted
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句的省略。句意：听到这个意外的消息,玛丽呆住了,动弹不得。本句为状语从句的省略，还原后为：as if he was rooted，省略了he was。故填rooted。
88. A medical team __________(consist) of 3 doctors and 6 nurses was rushed to the accident spot. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】consisting
【解析】
【详解】考查现在分词。句意：一个由3名医生和6名护士组成的医疗小组被紧急派往事故现场。本句的主语是A medical team，谓语动词是was rushed。设空处应填非谓语动词。consist of意为“由……组成”，与逻辑主语team之间为主动关系，所以用现在分词作后置定语。故填consisting。
89. Whenever he met with any difficulty, he could hear the voice of the Master, ___________ (whisper ) in his ear, “Don't quit. Keep playing.” （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】whispering
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：每当遇到任何困难，他都能听到大师的声音，在他耳边低语：“不要放弃，继续玩”。空处为非谓语动词，he与whisper在逻辑上是主动关系，用现在分词作状语。故填whispering。
90. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, the lack of sleep may make them ___________(depress). （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】depressed
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：睡眠不足的学生上课不能专心或在运动中表现不好。此外，睡眠不足可能会使他们沮丧。本句谓语动词是may make，设空处应该填入形容词作宾语补足语。depress的形容词为depressed，意为“沮丧的”。故填depressed。
