Inside the body of animals are chemicals that work together like the gears( 齿 轮 ) of a timekeeping device. Scientists refer to the actions of this system as the body's “clock”. For helping discover how this clock works on the molecular (分子的) level, three Americans have just won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
All three worked with fruit flies. Their findings, however, appear to relate well to many other animals, including humans. Jeffrey C. Hall is a geneticist while Michael Rosbash is a molecular biologist. In 1984,thepair identified a
gene called period. At the same time, a geneticist named Michael W. Young also found the gene period. Genes are like blue prints. Proteins (蛋白质) are the chemicals those blueprints make to do the work of genes. The gene period made a protein called PER. It turned out that PER's role was to turn off its own production. That means it works like a feedback(反馈) system.
In 1994, Young discovered a second clock gene, which he called timeless. Like period, it's found in almost every cell of the body. And the protein this gene produces(TIM) teams up with PER. Together the two proteins slip into the cell nucleus( 细 胞 核 ) and shut off their own genes. Young also discovered a third clock gene, known as
double time, and its protein DBT. This last protein helps set the clock's pace. In fact, this internal clock is even more
complex. Hall and Rosbash have found additional clock gears in their research.
Circadian clocks(生物钟) consist of networks of genes and the proteins that carry out their functions. Together, these pairings control the body's daily rhythms and cycles. These clocks control everything from when we sleep to
the daily change in body temperature, blood pressure and other phenomena. Circadian rhythms also help organisms, from plants to people, adapt to daily cycles of light and darkness and to temperature changes caused by the Earth's rotation.
When circadian rhythms are thrown out of whack, people feel uncomfortable with what is commonly known as jet lag ( 时 差 感 ) (even if you never set foot on a plane). Shift workers and people who regularly get too little sleep may experience long-term jet lag. This has been linked to serious health problems. Among diseases linked to such a chronic (长期的) lack of enough sleep are cancer, diabetes, heart disease, obesity and depression.
All three winners will pick up their prizes at a December ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden. Their reactions? Rosbash joked during a news conference that the Nobel committee's early morning phone call disrupted his own circadian rhythms. When he heard that he'd won, “I was shocked, breathless really. Literally,” he told an interviewer from the Nobel committee,” My wife said, “Start breathing!'”
According to Paragraph 2, how does the protein PER work?
By speeding up the production of itself.
By making other more essential proteins.
By controlling the activity of the gene period.
By giving the body feedback on the gene period.
Which of the following helps set the circadian clock speed?
A.PER. B.DBT. C.TIM. D.DNA.
Who may experience long-term jet lag?
A. Those who suffer from chronic diseases. B. Those who often travel by plane.
C. Those who are couch potatoes. D. Those who are night owls.
C
How many conversations start regarding what some celebrity(名人) did or said? It seems celebrities have so much influence on people from all around the world. Why is that?
Many nations have adopted the idea of getting celebrities involved in charities. If an actor from a famous movie gets on television and asks people at home to donate money for a cause, that advertisement will get more attention than if an unknown was to do the same. Do celebrities know more than the average human, or even people who have a degree or diploma(文凭)? The answer is no. The difference is what the celebrity is associated with.
Celebrities star in movies or television shows that the public enjoys. Therefore, whenever an individual sees a celebrity their brain connects the person with the good feeling they get from watching their movie or television show. This stimulates(刺激) individuals to pay more attention.
Specific celebrities are invited to advertise different things according to what they're mostly known for. For example, Scarlett Johansson is a sex symbol, so she's used to advertise beauty products such as lipstick, make-up or dresses to fool women into believing buying her merchandise(商品) will make them just as attractive. This is why celebrities are always seen in particular roles, to influence a specific group as much as possible.
Why actors and not scientists? Actors are just sources of entertainment; scientists change the world. Because movies are uncomplicated forms of entertainment; movies do not require much critical thought — they just play out. Science-on the other hand requires some effort to understand, which is why anyone can name which movie won the Oscar for Best Picture last year, but no one can name who won the Nobel Prize for Physics in any year.
Is their influence a good or bad thing? Their influence can be used positively when wanting to attract great attention to a just cause, like charity. If a celebrity appearance can increase donations, then their influence is a good thing. But for the most part their influence is blown out of proportion. Celebrities don't usually have the qualifications to justify why they have as much influence as they do. It's unethical(无原则的) to take advice from someone just because of their social status. Their influence comes from this discomposed notion that because they're famous and charming, they must be important.
Celebrities are preferred when advertising charities because .
celebrities are more knowledgeable than average people
the public are more willing to follow celebrities' advice
average people tend to put their trust in celebrities
celebrities tend to attract public attention
Scarlett Johansson is taken as an example to show that .
the advertisements made by stars are highly misleading
specific celebrities have a vital influence on a specific group
she's one of those who have become known for making commercials
she's so typical a female that she's used to advertise beauty products
What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggest?
Celebrities lack competence-based qualifications recognized by authorities.
Celebrities employ their social status or fame to influence average people.
Celebrities have both positive and negative effects on average people.
Celebrities are mostly considered more important than they really are.
What is the author's attitude towards celebrities' influence?
A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Unclear.
D
This passage is adapted from the short story “Home” by Alice Elliott.
The long narrow room was divided neatly in half by a wooden shelf, on one side of which was a sofa and on the other, a bed, creating “areas” for living and sleeping. Lil Pepper surveyed it in an instant.
She headed for the door, assuming everyone would follow, but when she turned around, no one had moved. Instead, the three of them stood in a tense row, watching her with full attention. They were her daughter Charlotte, Charlotte's husband Jack and a Mrs. Stafford, who had been with them for the past hour and a half as they settled
Lil's husband, Gordon, in the care center two floors below. Who is she exactly? Lil wondered, but no one ever said, and eventually it was too late to ask without seeming rude or foolish. Clearly Mrs. Stafford had something to do with this place.
“This is bigger than the room we saw in July, isn't it, Ma?” Charlotte said.
Lil felt herself turn toward Charlotte as if turning in the direction of a loud noise she couldn't quite understand. Her mouth went slack( 松 弛 的 ), and she willfully closed it again, all with the heavy, confusing sense of slow motion she'd had more and more lately. She could not remember having been here in July.
“Originally we had Mrs. Pepper scheduled for a smaller studio, but this room just opened up. It's the same price,” Mrs. Stafford said, lowering her voice when she spoke about money, “but this is a newer wing, and all the rooms are bigger.”
“Thank you,” Charlotte said. She glanced at Lil in much the same way that Lil used to glance at her, a parental, directive look meant to prompt a mannerly response. Lil was steadied by it.
“It's nice.” she said perfunctorily(敷衍地).
Mrs. Stafford came closer, breaking into a smile that gave Lil a strange feeling. Gordon always said that a bare-toothed smile was a sign of aggression. It was the kind of remark he made that she routinely ignored, but that has penetrated(渗入) nevertheless. Over the years, she had reluctantly come to take notice of the characteristics he found most offensive in the public at large. He could perfectly happily watch television with the sound off just to spot these physical characteristics, from which he was able to predict the essence of a person, particularly those of second-rate television actors. It was a game that had always amused the children, but Lil had found it disquieting and slightly mean. She had never subscribed to his theories, but she found herself rifling through( 搜 寻 ) the catalogue in her mind as this woman's big smile filled her with dread.
Her mother had warned her not to marry a complicated man so, of course, she'd done exactly that and was rather proud of it. Her parents had grown to approve of Gordon to the point of sometimes behaving as if he were their idea. Once she hadn't been able to stop herself from reminding them that they had been snobs(势利小人) at first about his background, but she was immediately sorry when they both took on the pained expressions that meant they'd seen something that offended their sensibilities - in this case, their less noble selves. The part of her
that wanted to bring them to terms was no better than the part of them she sought to expose.
“I'm glad you like it. Now before you settle in, let me show you how to get to the dining room from here,” Mrs. Stafford said. She stretched her hand out toward Lil, palm down, as if to grab her by the wrist. Lil crossed her arms. “That's all right,” Lil said.
“Oh, it's no bother. It's my job.” Again, the discomforting grin, “You're one of the lucky ones, Mrs. Pepper.
The dining room and the library are both on this floor.”
“Well, I for one would like to see it,” Charlotte said. She came up from behind Lil and hugged her around the shoulders. “I wish there were places like this for people our age. Don't you, Jack?”
Charlotte seemed to be satisfied with the room in that .
it was only two floors away from Gordon
it was larger than the room they'd viewed before
it was cheaper than the room they'd viewed before
it was divided into areas for living and sleeping
It can be inferred from the passage that Lil couldn't identify Mrs. Stafford because .
A. she was experiencing memory loss B. she had never met Mrs. Stafford before C.no one introduced Mrs. Stafford to her D. Mrs. Stafford hid her identity on purpose
Lil's remark “It's nice.”(Paragraph 7) indicates that she was trying to .
express her satisfaction with the room
praise the care center for its good service
keep polite even in an uncomfortable situation
thank Mrs. Stafford for recommending a better room
What did Lil feel when it came to applying Gordon's theories about physical characteristics?
A. Strange. B. Interesting. C. Guilty. D. Conflicting.
The underlined sentence “The part of her...she sought to expose” (Paragraph9) means .
Lil's attitude towards marriage was just like that of her parents
Lil's relationship with Gordon was as good as that between her and her parents
Lil's attempt to embarrass her parents was as mean as her parents' initial attitude to Gordon
Lil applying Gordon's theories was as unattractive as her parents who had been snobs at first
What did Lil find troubling during her visit to the care center?
A. The layout of the room. B. The quality of the food.
C. The location of the care center. D. The cheery manner of Mrs. Stafford.

Most people would like to keep a healthy diet during the holiday season. There are many social events to celebrate — we love to look our best when we're there, and we don't always look our best with bloated(肿胀的) stomachs and pained expressions on our face after having too many cookies, candies and pies. We also need healthy food to provide us with the energy necessary to go to all of these parties with a big smile on our face, gift in hand, and enthusiastic attitude in heart. Starting the New Year with some healthy habits in place rather than a long list of things to change, can also add momentum(动力) towards reaching other goals. The unfortunate reality is that many of us have a hard time with healthy eating during the holidays.
The holiday season is when we bring out candies, cookies, and all the other party foods! It's easy to eat too much of the wrong thing. It's also the time of year when people cook really delicious food in abundance: turkeys, roasts, hams and other great foods are the centerpieces of feasts that tempt(引诱) us to eat more than we need. The holiday season is also a busy and stressful time of year. We're rushing too much, spending too much, and letting perfectionism and stress take hold of us all too often. This can lead to emotional eating.
People who are celebrating often consume more than they would in their regular lives. When celebrating the holidays, there are several occasions where people might relax their dietary standards a little, in the name of celebration. These celebrations, however, can be rather plentiful during the holiday season, and the indulgence( 放纵) can add up.
Fortunately for all of us, there are some pretty effective ways to deal with holiday eating problems, and they're mostly under your control. For instance, adding certain spices(香料) to your foods can not only make them more flavorful which can lead you to feeling more satisfied as you eat, but these spices can bring added health benefits as well. Additionally, try mindful eating, a healthy eating strategy that has been gaining popularity lately. By eating mindfully, you can eat less and enjoy your food more, relieving stress in the process. It's win-win-win!
Sometimes the best defense is a good offense. If you plan ahead, you can head off temptation for unhealthy
holiday eating. For example, if you're going to a party or an event where you know you'll be tempted, eat some healthy food first so you won't show up starving. Learn your triggers(诱因), and have strategies for combating them.
Holiday eating
The (71) of healthy holiday eating It can let us enjoy various celebrations in a good(72) state. It can make us(73) enough to join in various parties. It also can increase the possibility of achieving our other goals.
(74) of holiday eating The easy (75) to abundant and amazing food during the holiday makes us eat more unconsciously. Holiday(76) results in us eating more emotionally. The holiday season provides us with more convenient(77) to eat more.

Millions of haloxylon ammodendron(梭梭树)have been planted to limits and erosion(侵蚀) in deserts in Alxa League, thanks to Ant Forest, an online platform where Alipay users can cultivate virtual trees via online payment. Once the virtual trees have grown online, real ones will be transported to the desert by low-carbon means.
In August 2016, Ant Finance cooperated with the Alxa Society of Entrepreneurs and Ecology to introduce the Ant Forest platform. It aims not only to encourage citizens to choose a low-carbon way for buying, transporting and living, but also to control desertification in Alxa League.
Virtual trees in Ant Forest need to absorb so-called “energy” or “water” exchanged through “green behaviors”, including online payment of water and electricity fees, taking public transport, making doctor's appointments online, purchasing train tickets online, walking, etc. The green behaviors usually take24 hours to transform into “energy” or “water”. A user's Alipay friends can “steal” the energy if the user doesn't “absorb” it fairly quickly.
During the process, users can not only be easily satisfied by seeing their trees grow step by step through green behaviors, but also they can enjoy the fun of stealing energy from their Alipay friends. That's part of the reason why Ant Forest has become popular among Chinese people.

One possible version:
Ant Forest, where Alipay users can use green behaviors to cultivate virtual trees, which
finally become real ones so as to help control desertification in Alxa League, is very popular with
netizens.
It is not surprising that Ant Forest enjoys great popularity. For one thing, users do not need to
put much effort into growing a virtual tree. Instead, they can have great fun. Those “green
behaviors” used to exchange “energy” or “water”, like paying for water and electricity fees or
buying tickets online, in fact bring convenience to people. And stealing energy from friends is no
doubt interesting. For another, people's environmental awareness has increased significantly in
recent years. More and more people want to make a contribution to protecting the environment.
Ant Forest makes their wishes come true, inspiring a more healthy and low-carbon lifestyle among
online mobile payment users.
In view of Ant Forest's contribution to the environment, I hope more people can join in.

附 2:听力原稿
Text 1
M: I can call a taxi to pick you up tomorrow. But if you want to experience more in a foreign
country, you should take a bus or the subway.
W: I’ve brought too much trouble to you already. I can take the bus.
Text 2
W: Did you know that Harry met Sally on a ride to New York?
M: Yes, of course.
W: Wow, I always thought they were introduced formally at a friend’s wedding.
Text 3
W: Hey, Rick. How is your new job?
M: Well, the office is far away, my boss gives me too much work to do, and my co-workers are
difficult to get along with. I guess this is what happens if you want a high salary.
Text 4
W: How much are the tickets?
M: They are three dollars each. Children can get in for half-price.
W: Fine. I would like three tickets, please. One adult, two children.
M: OK. Here you are.
Text 5
W: This room is so uncomfortable. I can’t even breathe.
M: I think they should ban smoking here. Let’s open the window.
Text 6
W: Hi, Pete? I’m Liz, Donna’s mother. Are you enjoying the party?
M: Yeah, it’s great. This might be the last time I see some of these people for a long time.
W: I know what you mean. I can’t believe that all you kids are finally graduating. Do you have
any plans after graduation?
M: Well, I’ve applied for a teaching job in China. I guess I’ll probably start work there next
week.
W: You’re more adventurous than Donna. She’s going to take a job right here in town.
M: Oh… Wait a minute. I’m sorry. I think Dan is leaving the party. I’ve got to talk to him
before he goes.
W: OK.
Text 7
M: Do you brush your teeth every day?
W: Twice a day, at least. Don’t you?
M: To be honest with you, I only brush my teeth in the morning.
W: That is kind of disgusting, and bad for your health.
M: If I ever have any problems, I will just go to the dentist.
W: If you have problems? You mean when you have problems and are in great pain! Do you
think dentists can do magic or something?
M: What do you mean? Dentists are supposed to fix all problems related to teeth, are they not?
W: What I’m saying is that a dentist, like all doctors, cannot undo a disease. They can only
treat it.
M: I think not brushing my teeth makes them stronger because they have to fight germs more
than people with clean teeth.
W: That is the stupidest statement I’ve heard all week.
Text 8
M: And next, let’s come to our European guest. What’s your name?
W: My name is Cecilia Rosenberg.
M: And where are you from?
W: I come from Sweden. I was born in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden.
M: What did you use to do in Sweden?
W: I worked on a farm. I worked in a stable(马厩) and took care of the horses, and I also
milked the cows. I like horses very much, and I loved riding them and pretending I was a cowboy
and bringing the cows in.
M: What do you miss most about Stockholm?
W: It’s beautiful there. There is water everywhere, parks everywhere, beautiful architecture...
M: When did you move here?
W: 1978.
M: How many people came with you to the United States?
W: Only my husband and our two children.
M: And how does your family like it here?
W: My children like it very much. It’s home to them. But my husband always feels he left
something very important behind... traditions.

M: This is taking longer than I thought. I should’ve brought my MP3 player, but I left it at
home.
W: Yeah, well, I thought it’d take about 45 minutes to get to the zoo on the subway. At least
this is faster than the bus. We’ve been riding for half an hour. How many stops away are we now?
M: Looks like about five. I guess it’ll be another 20 minutes. I’m looking forward to seeing the
polar bears! Anyway, what are you reading on your iPhone?
W: Just some news. There’s an article here about some ancient Roman ships that were
discovered underwater off the small Italian island of Ventotene. The ships are from around the 5th
century, and are in water 100 meters deep.
M: Cool. Did they find any treasure on the ships?
W: Well, no treasure — mainly some old clay bottles that were being used to transport wine
and fish sauce from Spain and North Africa. It says here that the ships were probably caught in a
bad storm and sank, and have been lying there for hundreds of years.
M: Where is Ventotene, anyway?
W: It’s located about halfway between Rome and Naples, off Italy’s west coast…

Have you ever wondered how credit card companies make their money? The answers might
surprise you. Credit card companies charge a small fee to stores every time someone uses their
card, usually two or three percent. This certainly adds up to a lot of money, but it is actually a very
small part of what makes these companies profitable. The real money they make is, you guessed it,
from you! When someone doesn’t pay their bill on time, the credit card companies charge them
interest. Instead of two or three percent, it’s more like ten or fifteen percent, and sometimes it’s a
lot more than that! Also, the amount of interest can change, and these companies are not always
very clear about how and why this happens. They also encourage people to pay the smallest
amount possible every month, which means that they will continue to pay high interest rates on
the money they owe. These companies actually want you to spend more than you can afford, and
that’s how they make most of their money: billions and billions of dollars every year in the U.S.
alone. So, the next time you want to charge something expensive on your credit card, think about
whether you can afford it or not. The real cost might be a lot higher!
