Ⅰ.阅读理解
Young people in their twenties and thirties are in worse health than their parents，a British survey has found.
According to the research，those aged between 18 and 34 are three times more likely to have a cold or flu than the older generation.Nearly a quarter of the young regularly have headaches or migraines (偏头痛)，compared to just 14 percent of over-55s.And they are almost twice as likely to have high stress levels.
The elderly also tend to eat more healthily.More than four in ten eat five or more portions of fruit or vegetables a day，double the number of young men and women.And when it comes to alcohol,20 percent of the over-55s don't indulge (酗酒)，while just 10 percent of those aged 18-34 don't indulge.Six in ten of the elderly make fresh meals every day，compared to less than a third of the young.And while three-quarters of over-55s say they eat a balanced diet，just half of the younger generation does so.Less than a third of them regularly cook with fresh ingredients (原料)，compared to almost two-thirds of the older people.
The older generation is also more likely to take a healthy amount of exercise，with 12 percent spending at least 30 minutes doing so each day.They may appear fitter，but only nine percent of the young do that.Over-55s also try hardest to have at least six hours' sleep and plenty of fresh air，according to research done in the UK for fruit brand Florida Grapefruit.
Long working hours，high stress levels and lack of exercise lead to people getting run-down and ill.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
American historian Laurel Ulrich once said，“Well-behaved women rarely make history.”In celebration of Women's History Month，here are two of the millions of great women that made a difference in the world.
SusanB．Anthony
Born on February 15,1820，Susan B．Anthony was a central figure in the women's suffrage movement in the US.She spent many years traveling for women's right to vote.She played a key role in Wyoming's decision to become the first US area to allow women to vote in 1869.
She was against the slavery(奴隶制)．Anthony also lent her voice to the battle for equal pay and educational opportunities for all，despite gender(性别)or race.Though she died over ten years before women were given the right to vote nationwide，the 19th Amendment，passed in 1920，is often referred to as the “Susan B．Anthony Amendment”．
Anne Frank
Anne Frank's live description of Jewish families hiding to escape the German soldiers has touched millions of people around the world.Anne grew up in a warm family.However，things changed completely when Hitler came to power.In 1940，Hitler began sending Jewish families to Nazi concentration camps in Germany.Anne and her family were forced to hide inside a small，two-story attic(阁楼)．Among Anne's rare possessions was a diary she had received on her 13th birthday.This was where the young girl recorded her disappointments，dreams，and the family's day-to-day fears and struggles in the tiny house.
Just as the war was drawing to an end，they were discovered by Nazi soldiers and shipped off to a camp in Berlin，Germany.Had she survived a few more months，Anne would have seen the Second World War end，and her childhood dream of becoming a successful author come true.That's because even after all these years，her journal，published as a book entitled，“Anne Frank：Diary of a young girl”，continues to be popular with people across all ages and cultures.
[语篇导读] 本文主要介绍了世界上两位伟大的女性。
1．According to the passage，Susan B．Anthony probably died in ____.
A．1892 B．1906
C．1915 D．1925
解析：B [细节理解题。根据第三段“Though she died over ten years before women were given the right to vote nationwide，the 19th Amendment，passed in 1920，is often referred to as the ‘Susan B．Anthony Amendment’．”可知，虽然她在全国女性获得选举权的十多年前就去世了，但1920年通过的第19项修正案通常被称为“Susan B．Anthony修正案”。由此可知，Sursan B．Anthony 可能在1906年过世。]
2．What can be inferred about Anne Frank?
A．She saw her childhood dream come true.
B．She luckily survived the two world wars.
C．She felt safe with her family in the attic.
D．She died just before the World War Ⅱ ended.
解析：D [推理判断题。根据最后一段“Had she survived a few more months，Anne would have seen the Second World War end，and her childhood dream of becoming a successful author come true.”可知，如果她再活几个月，安妮就会看到第二次世界大战的结束，而她童年时想成为成功作家的梦想也会实现。由此可推知，Anne Frank在二战结束前夕去世了。]
3．We can learn from the passage that ____.
A．the book“Anne Frank：Diary of a young girl”is based on Anne's experiences
B．American historian Laurel Ulrich's words mentioned above is wrong
C．Susan B．Anthony took part in the discussion of the 19th Amendment
D．Anne Frank grew up in a poor Jewish family during the Second World War
解析：A [细节理解题。根据最后一段“That's because even after all these years，her journal，published as a book entitled，‘Anne Frank：Diary of a young girl’，continues to be popular with people across all ages and cultures.”可知，这是因为即使在这么多年之后，她的日记作为书的名字被出版，仍然受到各个年龄和文化背景的人们的欢迎。由此可知，《安妮日记》是以安妮的经历为基础的。]
4．What's the passage mainly about?
A．Two sad stories about two unlucky women.
B．Two great and famous women in the world.
C．The different experiences between Susan B．and Anne.
D．The great ones who make the world better and better.
解析：B [主旨大意题。根据第一段“In celebration of Women's History Month，here are two of the millions of great women that made a difference in the world.”及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了世界上两位杰出的女性——Susan B．Anthony以及Anne Frank。由此可知，本文主要介绍了两位伟大并且知名的女性。]

Alaska's Arctic lakes now freeze later and melt earlier in the year than in 1950, leaving them easy to suffer water loss from evaporation(蒸发) and possibly adding to local warming, a new study finds.The winter ice season near Barrow, Alaska, is shorter than in 1950, researchers reported Jan.30 in the journal The Cryosphere.
Lake ice is also thinner each winter.The scientists surveyed 402 lakes on the North Slope, where permafrost (permanently frozen ground) and shallow lakes dominate the area.In 2011, the lake ice was 38 percent thinner than in 1950, and 22 percent fewer lakes froze through to their bottoms.
“When we saw the actual numbers we were shocked at how dramatic the change has been，” lead study author Cristina Surdu, of the University of Waterloo in Canada, said in a statement.Surdu and her co?authors analyzed the changes in lake?ice thickness and ice cover with satellite images and climate model simulations (satellite images are only available from 1991)．
The climate models suggest the Arctic lakes froze almost six days later and broke up about 18 days earlier in the winter of 2011 compared with the winter of 1950.“The changes in ice and the shortened winter affect Northern communities that depend on ice roads to transport goods，” Surdu said.For example, every winter, oil companies build roads over frozen lakes to carry supplies to Prudhoe Bay.
“The dramatic changes in lake ice may also contribute to further warming of the entire region, because open water on lakes contributes to warmer air temperatures，” Surdu said.The Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the planet, for reasons that may include its layered atmosphere, which traps heat, and the loss of sea ice and snow cover, which help reflect the sun's energy when present.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A 7-year-old boy in Ohio tried to sell his toy dog，police in Franklin said.“We heard about the boy from a man who came into the police station and said there was a small child carrying a stuffed animal in a busy street of Franklin，”Franklin Police Officer Steve Dunham said.
When officers went to the area，Dunham spotted the boy in front of a shop and got out of his car to speak with him.“The boy was really nervous at first，”Dunham said.“He told me he was hungry and needed food.”
Chief Russ Whitman added the boy said he had not eaten for several days.While other officers went to the child's home，Dunham took the boy to a fast food restaurant and the two had dinner together.
The officers who went to investigate the boy's home reported that it was in terrible condition and there were other children there，adding that they found garbage and liquor bottles everywhere.Four other children—11,12,15 and 17—also lived in the house.The parents，who were home at the time，were each charged with child neglect.
Child Protective Services contacted other family members to pick up the children.The 7-year-old watched cartoons at the police station with a policeman for a few hours until a family member picked him up.The boy's parents were not jailed，but the children remained in the care of relatives，according to Franklin Police.St.Vincent De Paul at St.Mary's Church in Franklin is organizing a donation drive to raise money for the family，according to Whitman.
“I'm very proud of my officers for what they did，but officers across the nation go above and beyond every single day，”Whitman said.“You can find stories like this everywhere with police officers every day.That's why we get into the business—to help people.”

Ⅱ.阅读填句
Beauty sleep doesn't just belong to the fairy-tale world.Research has shown that people who don't sleep enough are viewed as less healthy and less attractive.Lack of sleep has also been linked to the exacerbation(加重)of certain skin illness.__1__.Here are three tips on how to get the most beauty benefits from a night's rest.
Care for your skin
No matter how tired you feel，make the time to care for your skin every evening.Your evening routine does not have to be long and complicated，just effective：
“Clean.__2__.Sleeping with make-up on has been shown to cause skin inflammation and accelerate the aging process.”
“Treat Blood flow increases at night，making skincare products infiltrate into the skin more efficiently.__3__.”
Sleep on your back
__4__.The American Academy of Dermatology has warned that sleeping in other positions can lead to sleep lines，while sleeping on your back can help to prevent fine wrinkles.
If you often wake up with swollen eyes，try to sleep with your head slightly raised.This can help to prevent the swelling caused by fluid retention(积液)，which tends to accumulate in the under-eye area.
__5__
Sleeping on a silk pillow can effectively prevent the stubborn facial wrinkles caused by sleeping on the side or on your stomach.Additionally，silk is less absorbent than cotton，so it is not going to absorb whatever skin-care products you have applied to your face as much as other materials would.
A．Use mild products to remove make-up，dirt，and oil
B．Unless you have medical reasons，try this position
C．Go to sleep on time
D．Therefore，we undoubtedly have to make healthy sleep a rule
E．Use your anti-aging products as overnight treatment
F．A revolutionary technology is already on the market
G．Choose the silk pillow
[语篇导读] 本文就如何从睡美容觉中获得益处提出了三点建议。
1．D [总结句。根据上文信息可知，睡眠不足是不健康的，还可能引发皮肤病，因此我们应该保证健康的睡眠，D项“Therefore，we undoubtedly have to make healthy sleep a rule”接前句，与上文构成因果关系，表明应该养成健康的睡眠习惯。]
2．A [细节句。由本段标题“Care for your skin”可知，本段建议要护理皮肤。空前内容“Clean”表明要清洁皮肤，又根据空后的句子可知，带着化妆品入睡会引起皮肤炎症并且加速衰老，由此判断睡觉前要清洁面部，A项“Use mild products to remove make-up，dirt，and oil”符合上下文。]
3．C [细节句。根据上文信息可知，在夜晚护理产品更加有效，所以要按时睡觉，故选C。]
4．B [细节句。由本段标题“Sleep on your back”可知，本段建议采用仰卧睡姿。根据下文信息“sleeping on your back can help to prevent fine wrinkles”判断，仰睡会预防细纹，故B项信息“try this position”建议尝试此睡姿符合题意。]
5．G [主旨句。根据本段内容“Sleeping on a silk pillow can effectively prevent the stubborn facial wrinkles...Additionally，silk is less absorbent than cotton...”可知，丝绸枕头能预防面部细纹同时不容易吸收化妆品，由此判断作者建议使用丝绸枕头，故选G。]
Ⅲ.语法填空

3．named [考查非谓语动词。句意为：它讲述了一个名叫米格尔的墨西哥男孩的故事。分析句子结构可知，句中已有谓语tells，且设空处前无并列连词连接，因此设空处应用name的非谓语形式；name在此为动词，意为“命名”，与a Mexican boy之间为逻辑上的被动关系，因此，应用过去分词。故填named。]
4．on [考查介词。句意为：尽管音乐是被他家祖祖辈辈所禁止的，米格尔还是梦想成为一名有成就的音乐家。ban on...意为“对……的禁令”，为固定搭配。故填on。]
5．himself [考查代词。句意为：急于证明他的音乐才华，他发现自己处于令人吃惊的、多彩的亡灵土地，接下来发生了一连串神秘的事情。此处为“find＋宾语＋宾补”结构，宾语与主语he同指一人，应用反身代词。故填himself。]
6．following [考查非谓语动词。句意见上一题解析。句中已有谓语finds，且设空处前无并列连词，因此，设空处应用follow 的非谓语形式；follow表示的动作与前一动作同时发生，因此，应用现在分词短语作伴随状语。故填following。]
7．meets [考查动词的时态。句意为：在路上，他遇见了一位歌唱家赫克托，他们满怀激情地开始了一场奇妙的旅行。本文介绍的是电影的故事，主体时态为一般现在时，因此，此处也应用一般现在时。故填meets。]
8．passionately [ 考查词性转换。句意见上一题解析。设空处修饰动词短语set off，应用副词。故填passionately。]
9．conclusion [考查词性转换。句意为：尽管这部电影的结局不难预测，但是心没有被它暖化的人可能希望去咨询治疗专家了。设空处前有冠词及名词所有格the movie's 修饰，应用名词形式。故填conclusion。]
10．whose [考查定语从句。句意见上一题解析。设空处引导定语从句，关系词与heart之间为所属关系，应用whose引导该从句。]

Ⅰ.阅读理解
One of the best decisions you can make in your twenties is to explore.Exploring postcollege choices look a lot like being lost；in fact, being lost is normal and productive at this stage in life.
In the past，people were punished for getting lost.For example，dropping out of high school for a year to explore made colleges think you were treated for mental instability (不稳定)．But it's a different story today.Right after college, you don't get punished for taking time off.Most graduate and professional schools today would prefer the students who take time to go away, have different experiences, and then come back refocused.
Why is there so much respect for exploration？Part of the reason is that there is no better way of figuring out what will make you happy.“We are not very good at using our imaginations when it comes to how we'll feel in a given circumstance，” says Daniel Gilbert, a professor of psychology at Harvard University.Therefore, he recommends that we test out a lot of different careers.He admits that this method takes time, but he says it's worth it because otherwise you're likely to make a decision based on money, which does not always lead to happiness.
What about the people who pull their life together in a tight little package by age twenty?four？They're the exception to the rule, according to Wayne Osgood, a professor of sociology at Pennsylvania State University.He labels these people “fast starters” and explains that they are only about 12 percent of the population.Some fast starters are just plain lucky：they love the first job they get after college.The other 88 percent of us have to march through our twenties formulating (规划) a new career plan.
The good news is that this is what most people are doing in their twenties：wandering, taking trips, changing jobs every year, volunteering for unpaid work while living at their parents' house, and starting businesses that fail.All these choices are, surprisingly, right on track for making a good decision about what to do with yourself in adult life.
[语篇导读] 20多岁是一个探索的过程，它可以帮助你发现你真正喜欢的工作，从而为将来的人生打下一个良好的基础。
1．According to the passage, exploring after college in your twenties ________.
A．means you get lost in your life
B．assists you in choosing a suitable career
C．is just a waste of your valuable time
D．is a kind of mental instability
解析：B [细节理解题。从第三段专家的建议“he recommends that we test out a lot of different careers可知，exploration”可以帮助一个人发现自己真正喜欢的工作，为选择职业提供基础。]
2．Exploration is so much respected because ________.
A．it helps you to earn much more money than others
B．it improves your imagination in a given situation
C．it is the best way to find your happiness
D．it promises you various choices of careers
解析：C [细节理解题。根据第三段的“there is no better way of figuring out what will make you happy”可知选C。]
3．Which of the following statements may the author be for?
A．The earlier you work, the happier you are.
B．Exploration is to travel around the world.
C．Choosing a career is nothing but easy.
D．An indirect route is the route to happiness.
解析：D [推理判断题。本文阐述了这样的观点：20多岁的时候，不要急于找工作，而要去探索从而找到自己真正喜欢的工作，虽然看上去浪费了一些时间，但是却找到了通向幸福的道路，故D项符合作者的观点。]
