Are
you
on
a
diet?
Then
maybe
you
should
consider
____1____(sit)
by
the
window
the
next
time
you
eat
out.
A
new
book
claims
that
___2___
you
sit
in
a
restaurant
can
affect
how
much
you
consume.
A
new
research
found
that
people
sitting
farthest
from
the
front
door
ate
the
fewest
salads
and
were
73
percent
___3___(likely)
to
order
dessert
Those
seated
at
a
dark
table
ate
heavier
food
and
ordered
more
of
it
___4___
diners
seated
at
bright
bar
tables
ordered
more
salads
and
fewer
desserts.
According
to
the
researchers,
the
darker
it
is,
the
more
invisible
you
___5___
feel,
the
less
easy
it
is
to
see
how
much
you’re
eating
and
the
less
guilty
you
are
when
you
eat
more.
In
contrast,
____6____(see)
the
sunlight,
people
or
trees
outside
might
make
you
more
conscious
of
____7____
you
look,
might
make
you
think
about
walking
or
might
make
you
want
a
green
salad.
The
researchers
also
noted
that
slim
diners
chewed
around
15
times
per
mouthful,
three
chews
more
than
heavier
diners.
By
eating
more
slowly,
the
diner
consumes
less

A
long
red
bridge
stretches
out
across
water.
It
runs
across
the
Golden
Gate.
This
is
not
the
___9___
to
some
sacred
land,
but
it
is
just
as
___10___.
The
Golden
Gate
is
where
San
Francisco
Bay
___11___
the
Pacific
Ocean,
and
at
night
the
scene
of
the
bridge
___12___
up
over
the
water
takes
your
breath
away.
Welcome
to
San
Francisco,
a
place
famous
for
its
beautiful
parks,
hilly
streets
and
lovely
beaches.
But
the
bridge
is
undoubtedly
the
most
well-known
symbol
of
the
city.
Before
its
completion
in
1937,
the
bridge
was
considered
impossible
to
build
because
of
the
foggy
weather,
powerful
winds,
and
___13___
ocean
currents
in
the
city.
However,
despite
the
difficult
conditions,
the
bridge
was
built
in
no
more
than
four
years.
Its
total
length
is
nearly
2
kilometers.
San
Francisco
___14___
first
on
Lonely
Planet’s
list
of
the
best
cities
to
visit
in
2013.
According
to
the
world’s
largest
travel
publisher,
it
came
top
as
a
result
of
its
___15___
mix.
According
to
the
census,
21
percent
of
the
city’s
population
was
made
up
of
Chinese
people.
San
Francisco’s
Chinatown
is
the
largest
outside
of
Asia
and
the
oldest
in
North
America.
Two
traditional
festivals,
the
Spring
Festival
and
Mid-Autumn
Festival,
are
the
biggest
events
of
the
year
on
the
city’s
___16___.
If
yellow
cabs
are
a
key
part
of
New
York
city
life,
then
the
cable
car
is
San
Francisco’s
equivalent.
The
first
cable
car
came
into
public
service
in
1873,
and
the
slow
and
noisy
vehicle
has
been
a
symbol
of
the
city
ever
since.
The
cable
car
network
was
once
___17___
by
a
serious
earthquake
but,
luckily,
it
has
now
recovered
and
provides
better
____18____
than
the
subway.

and
D.
Fill
in
each
blank
with
the
word
or
phrase
that
best
fits
the
context.
Roberta
appeared
on
the
stage.
She
took
a
deep
breath
and
began
to
speak.
Now
she
was
Portia,
a
strong–willed
___19___
in
Shakespeare’s
The
Merchant
of
Venice.
The
theater
was
filled
with
people.
She
was
speaking
with
a
power
she
had
never
before
experienced,
the
words
flowing
___20___
from
her.
___21___,
Roberta
had
never
acted
in
her
life
before
the
audition.
She
___22___
being
in
front
of
other
people.
She
was
very
shy
at
school.
She
had
never
thought
she
was
good
enough
at
anything
to
___23___
much
attention.
She
stayed
mostly
to
herself,
making
few
friends.
She
had
excellent
grades,
but
she
always
thought
that
something
was
missing.
Two
weeks
before
the
audition,
Roberta’s
mother
had
heard
about
it
and
___24___
her
to
join
in.
“I
can’t
think
of
anyone
else
better
suited
to
play
the
part.
Remember
all
the
plays
you
used
to
act
out
for
us?”
Her
mother
wouldn’t
let
the
___25___
drop.
“You’re
just
a
little
scared.
Everyone
gets
scared.
You
know
you
can
do
it.
The
trick
is
to
look
past
the
fear
to
find
the
love
of
what
you’re
doing.’’
So
Roberta
had
made
an
appointment
with
the
head
of
the
Drama
Club.
She
had
read
the
play
and
found
herself
excited
by
the
importance
of
speaking
such
rich
words.
In
secret
she
practiced
Portia’s
part,
___26___
the
lines
by
repeating
them
over
and
over.
It
wasn’t
hard;
she
loved
every
minute
of
it.
Every
time
she
spoke
the
words,
she
had
a
new
___27___
of
the
lines,
as
if
Shakespeare
had
written
Portia
on
many
levels.
On
the
day
of
the
audition,
she
performed
two
of
Portia’s
famous
speeches
for
the
auditors.
When
she
had
finished,
the

If
you
are
a
recent
social
science
graduate
who
has
had
to
listen
to
jokes
about
unemployment
from
your
computer
major
classmates,
you
may
have
had
the
last
laugh.
There
are
many
advantages
for
the
social
science
major
because
this
high-tech
“Information
Age”
demands
people
who
are
flexible
and
who
have
good
communication
skills.
There
are
many
social
science
majors
in
large
companies
who
fill
important
positions.
For
example,
a
number
of
research
studies
found
that
social
science
majors
had
achieved
greater
managerial
success
than
those
who
had
technical
training
or
pre-professional
courses.
Studies
show
that
social
science
majors
are
most
suited
for
change,
which
is
the
leading
feature
of
the
kind
of
high
speed,
high-pressure,
high-tech
world
we
now
live
in.
Social
science
majors
are
not
only
experiencing
success
in
their
long-term
company
jobs,
but
they
are
also
finding
jobs
more
easily.
A
study
showed
that
many
companies
had
filled
a
large
percentage
of
their
entry-level
positions
with
social
science
graduates.
The
study
also
showed
that
the
most
sought-after
quality
in
a
person
who
was
looking
for
a
job
was
communication
skills,
noted
as
“very
important”
by
92
percent
of
the
companies.
Social
science
majors
have
these
skills,
often
without
knowing
how
important
they
are.
It
is
probably
due
to
these
skills
that
they
have
been
offered
a
wide
variety
of
positions.
Finally,
although
some
social
science
majors
may
still
find
it
more
difficult
than
their
technically
trained
classmates
to
land
the
first
job,
recent
graduates
report
that
they
don’t
regret
their
choice
of
study.
33.
Compared
with
graduates
of
other
subjects,
social
science
graduates
_____.
A.
are
ready
to
change
when
situations
change
B.
are
better
able
to
deal
with
difficulties
C.
are
equally
good
at
computer
skills
D.
are
likely
to
give
others
pressure
34.
According
to
the
text,
what
has
made
it
easy
for
social
science
graduates
to
find
jobs?
A
Willingness
to
take
low-paid
jobs.
B.
Readiness
to
gain
high-tech
knowledge.
C.
Skills
in
expressing
themselves.
D.
Part-time
work
experience.
35.
The
underlined
word
“land”
in
the
last

probably
means
_______.
A.

B.

C.

Choose
from
the
sentences
A-F
to
complete
the
passage.
There
are
two
extra
sentences
which
you
do
not
need
to
use.
There
is
no
better
feeling
than
walking
away
from
your
desk
in
the
evening
with
a
sense
of
deep
satisfaction
for
a
job
well
done.___36___
Here
are
five
ways
to
help
you
do
just
that:
Empty
your
inbox.
___37___
You
will
find
that
an
empty
inbox
late
in
the
day
will
give
you
a
strong
sense
of
accomplishment
and
order
in
your
life.
If
you
want
an
empty
inbox,
it
means
everything
is
in
a
particular
spot:
either
in
the
trash,
or
sent
to
someone
else.
___38___
If
you
leave
a
tiring
and
undesirable
task
until
the
next
day,
you
will
walk
away
from
your
desk
with
a
dark
cloud
hanging
over
you
and
a
sense
of
fear.
On
the
other
hand,
try
to
complete
the
task
before
you
leave
the
office,
and
you
will
walk
away
with
a
feeling
of
freedom
and
victory.
Do
something
nice
for
someone
else.
The
key
here
is
intentionality.
Plan
to
end
your
day
by
doing
something
specific
and
beneficial
for
someone
in
your
life—a
partner,
friend,
family
member,
customer,
etc.
You
will
feel
better
when
doing
a
good
deed
to
others.
It
is
impossible
to
do
something
nice
for
someone
without
feeling
better
yourself.
Say
thank
you.
Take
a
moment
before
you
shut
things
down
for
the
day
to
be
thankful
for
your

When
you
feel
grateful
to
people

you,
you
will
get
a
new
idea
on
the
difficulties
of
any
given
day.
A.
Determine

special.
B.
Regardless
of
what
else
has

Read
the
following
passage.
Summarize
the
main
idea
and
the
main
points
of
the
passage
in
no
more
than
60
words.
Use
your
own
words
as
far
as
possible.
In
schools
and
at
home,
most
of
us
have
been
scolded
or
even
got
punished
for
daydreaming.
The
majority
of
people
say
that
by
daydreaming
we
waste
our
time
and
energy
on
something
unproductive.
But
many
medical
studies
have
shown
something
different.
They’ve
stressed
the
fact
that
daydreaming
works
wonders
on
our
imagination,
creativity
and
situation-handling
techniques.
In
fact,
many
problems
can
be
easily
solved
if
we
daydream.
The
topmost
benefit
of
daydreaming
is
that
your
mood
gets
the
right
improvement.
By
separating
yourself
from
the
world
around
you
you
tend
to
enjoy
the
loneliness
in
your
mind
and
get
peace
from
daydreaming
as
you
think
about
something
that
calms
your
senses.
When
you
start
imagining
things,
you
will
forget
all
the
stress
and
tension.
Instead,
you
will
get
happiness
from
it
and
this
happiness
will
turn
into
a
source
of
energy
that
helps
you
work
in
a
good
mood.
Many
psychologists
have
said
that
people
who
daydream
tend
to
have
a
sharper
memory.
It's
true.
When
you're
daydreaming,
you'll
tend
to
get
carried
away
to
imagine
various
situations,
either
real
or
unreal.
You
tend
to
act
differently
in
different
situations
trying
to
satisfy
your
mind
by
doing
what
you
want
in
your
dreams.
When
your
mind
gets
satisfied,
you're
in
a
better
position
to
concentrate
more
on
your
work.
Since
daydreaming
activates
the
nerves
of
your
brain,
you
tend
to
have
higher
attentiveness
and
your
ability
to
remember
things
will
develop.
When
you
daydream,
you
automatically
imagine
yourself
as
your
heart
says
and
therefore,
you
get
to
know
yourself
better.
You
also
start
realizing
the
mistakes
you've
made
in
life
and
trying
your
best
to
avoid
repeating
them.
Such
imagination
techniques
help
you
to
connect
yourself
with
your
soul.

bar
tables两者的不同,因此用转折连词while“然而”。故填while。
【5题详解】

According
to

21

made
up
of
Chinese
people.
San
Francisco’s
Chinatown
is
the

yellow
cabs

strong–willed
___19___
in
Shakespeare’s
The
Merchant
of
Venice.
The
theater
was
filled
with
people.
She
was
speaking
with
a
power
she
had
never
before
experienced,
the
words
flowing
___20___
from
her.
___21___,
Roberta
had
never
acted
in
her
life
before
the
audition.
She
___22___
being
in
front
of
other
people.
She
was
very
shy
at
school.
She
had
never
thought
she
was
good
enough
at
anything
to
___23___
much
attention.
She
stayed
mostly
to
herself,
making
few
friends.
She
had
excellent
grades,
but
she
always
thought
that
something
was
missing.
Two
weeks
before
the
audition,
Roberta’s
mother
had
heard
about
it
and
___24___
her
to
join
in.
“I
can’t
think
of
anyone
else
better
suited
to
play
the
part.
Remember
all
the
plays
you
used
to
act
out
for
us?”
Her
mother
wouldn’t
let
the
___25___
drop.
“You’re
just
a
little
scared.
Everyone
gets
scared.
You
know
you
can
do
it.
The
trick
is
to
look
past
the
fear
to
find
the
love
of
what
you’re
doing.’’
So
Roberta
had
made
an
appointment
with
the
head
of
the
Drama
Club.
She
had
read
the
play
and
found
herself
excited
by
the
importance
of
speaking
such
rich
words.
In
secret
she
practiced
Portia’s
part,
___26___
the
lines
by
repeating
them
over
and
over.
It
wasn’t
hard;
she
loved
every
minute
of
it.
Every
time
she
spoke
the
words,
she
had
a
new
___27___
of
the
lines,
as
if
Shakespeare
had
written
Portia
on
many
levels.
On
the
day
of
the
audition,
she
performed
two
of
Portia’s
famous
speeches
for
the
auditors.
When
she
had
finished,
the
head
of
the
Drama
Club
announced

If
you
are
a
recent
social
science
graduate
who
has
had
to
listen
to
jokes
about
unemployment
from
your
computer
major
classmates,
you
may
have
had
the
last
laugh.
There
are
many
advantages
for
the
social
science
major
because
this
high-tech
“Information
Age”
demands
people
who
are
flexible
and
who
have
good
communication
skills.
There
are
many
social
science
majors
in
large
companies
who
fill
important
positions.
For
example,
a
number
of
research
studies
found
that
social
science
majors
had
achieved
greater
managerial
success
than
those
who
had
technical
training
or
pre-professional
courses.
Studies
show
that
social
science
majors
are
most
suited
for
change,
which
is
the
leading
feature
of
the
kind
of
high
speed,
high-pressure,
high-tech
world
we
now
live
in.
Social
science
majors
are
not
only
experiencing
success
in
their
long-term
company
jobs,
but
they
are
also
finding
jobs
more
easily.
A
study
showed
that
many
companies
had
filled
a
large
percentage
of
their
entry-level
positions
with
social
science
graduates.
The
study
also
showed
that
the
most
sought-after
quality
in
a
person
who
was
looking
for
a
job
was
communication
skills,
noted
as
“very
important”
by
92
percent
of
the
companies.
Social
science
majors
have
these
skills,
often
without
knowing
how
important
they
are.
It
is
probably
due
to
these
skills
that
they
have
been
offered
a
wide
variety
of
positions.
Finally,
although
some
social
science
majors
may
still
find
it
more
difficult
than
their
technically
trained
classmates
to
land
the
first
job,
recent
graduates
report
that
they
don’t
regret
their
choice
of
study.
33.
Compared
with
graduates
of
other
subjects,
social
science
graduates
_____.
A.
are
ready
to
change
when
situations
change
B.
are
better
able
to
deal
with
difficulties
C.
are
equally
good
at
computer
skills
D.
are
likely
to
give
others
pressure
34.
According
to
the
text,
what
has
made
it
easy
for
social
science
graduates
to
find
jobs?
A.
Willingness
to
take
low-paid
jobs.
B.
Readiness
to
gain
high-tech
knowledge.
C.
Skills
in
expressing
themselves.
D.
Part-time
work
experience.
35.
The
underlined
word
“land”
in
the
last
paragraph
probably
means
_______.
A.
keep
for
some
time
B.
successfully
get
C.
immediately
start
D.
lose
regretfully
【答案】33.
A

C

B
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了社会科学专业的毕业生有很多优势。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Studies

which
is
the

of

high-pressure,
high-tech
world

【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The

that
the
most

【35题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“although
some
social

from
the
sentences
A-F
to

the

two
extra

There

no
better

than
walking
away
from

in

evening
with
a
sense
of
deep
satisfaction
for
a
job
well

Here
are
five
ways
to
help
you
do
just
that:
Empty
your
inbox.
___37___
You
will
find
that
an
empty
inbox
late
in
the
day
will
give
you
a
strong
sense
of
accomplishment
and
order
in
your
life.
If
you
want
an
empty
inbox,
it
means
everything
is
in
a
particular
spot:
either
in
the
trash,
or
sent
to
someone
else.
___38___
If
you
leave
a
tiring
and
undesirable
task
until
the
next
day,
you
will
walk
away
from
your
desk
with
a
dark
cloud
hanging
over
you
and
a
sense
of
fear.
On
the
other
hand,
try
to
complete
the
task
before
you
leave
the
office,
and
you
will
walk
away
with
a
feeling
of
freedom
and
victory.
Do
something
nice
for
someone
else.
The
key
here
is
intentionality.
Plan
to
end
your
day
by
doing
something
specific
and
beneficial
for
someone
in
your
life—a
partner,
friend,
family
member,
customer,
etc.
You
will
feel
better
when
doing
a
good
deed
to
others.
It
is
impossible
to
do
something
nice
for
someone
without
feeling
better
yourself.
Say
thank
you.
Take
a
moment
before

down
for

be
thankful
for

B.
Regardless
of

(你会发现在一天的晚些时候收件箱是空的,这会给你的生活带来强烈的成就感和秩序感)”可知,本段主要是关于清空收件箱的,后文提到一天结束前,当发现自己的收件箱是空的,就会有强烈的成就感和秩序感,是在说明保持收件箱空着的益处,故本句也应当是在说明这一做法的好处,且后文中an
empty
inbox与D选项中Keeping
your
inbox
empty相对应。故D选项“保持收件箱空着可以让你更有效率”符合语境,故选D。
【38题详解】
此处为本段小标题。根据本段内容“If
you
leave
a
tiring
and
undesirable
task
until
the
next
day,
you
will
walk
away
from
your
desk
with
a
dark
cloud
hanging
over
you
and
a
sense
of
fear.
On
the
other
hand,
try
to
complete
the
task
before
you
leave
the
office,
and
you
will
walk
away
with
a
feeling
of
freedom
and
victory.(如果你把一个累人、不受欢迎的任务留到第二天,当你离开办公桌的时候,你会有一种乌云笼罩着你、恐惧的感觉。另一方面,试着在你离开办公室之前完成任务,你会带着自由和胜利的感觉离开)”可知,本段想要强调的是尽可能在离开之前完成任务,C选项中before
you
leave与后文中before
you
leave相对应。故C选项“尽可能在你离开之前完成任务”可作为本段小标题,故选C。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Take
a
moment
before
you
shut
things
down
for
the
day
to
be
thankful
for
your
life.(在你放下手头的事情之前,花点时间感谢一下你的生活)”以及后文“When
you
feel
grateful
to
people
around
you,
you
will
get
a
new
idea
on
the
difficulties
of
any
given
day.(当你对身边的人心存感激时,你会对任何一天的困难都有新的认识)”可知,后文提到要对身边的人心存感激,可推知本句是在说明无论发生什么,都应当以感谢结束这一天,这是很有益的。且B选项中thanks与上文thankful相对应。故B选项“不管这一天还发生了什么,以感谢结束这一天都是一个有益的方法”符合语境,故选B。

passage.

and
the
main
points
of
the
passage
in
no
more
than
60
words.
Use
your
own
words
as
far
as
possible.
In
schools
and
at
home,
most
of
us
have
been
scolded
or
even
got
punished
for
daydreaming.
The
majority
of
people
say
that
by
daydreaming
we
waste
our
time
and
energy
on
something
unproductive.
But
many
medical
studies
have
shown
something
different.
They’ve
stressed
the
fact
that
daydreaming
works
wonders
on
our
imagination,
creativity
and
situation-handling
techniques.
In
fact,
many
problems
can
be
easily
solved
if
we
daydream.
The
topmost
benefit
of
daydreaming
is
that
your
mood
gets
the
right
improvement.
By
separating
yourself
from
the
world
around
you,
you
tend
to
enjoy
the
loneliness
in
your
mind
and
get
peace
from
daydreaming
as
you
think
about
something
that
calms
your
senses.
When
you
start
imagining
things,
you
will
forget
all
the
stress
and
tension.
Instead,
you
will
get
happiness
from
it
and
this
happiness
will
turn
into
a
source
of
energy
that
helps
you
work
in
a
good
mood.
Many
psychologists
have
said
that
people
who
daydream
tend
to
have
a
sharper
memory.
It's
true.
When
you're
daydreaming,
you'll
tend
to
get
carried
away
to
imagine
various
situations,
either
real
or
unreal.
You
tend
to
act
differently
in
different
situations
trying
to
satisfy
your
mind
by
doing
what
you
want
in
your
dreams.
When
your
mind
gets
satisfied,
you're
in
a
better
position
to
concentrate
more
on
your
work.
Since
daydreaming
activates
the
nerves
of
your
brain,
you
tend
to
have
higher
attentiveness
and
your
ability
to
remember
things
will
develop.
When
you
daydream,
you
automatically
imagine
yourself
as
your
heart
says
and
therefore,
you
get
to
know
yourself
better.
You
also
start
realizing
the
mistakes
you've
made
in
life
and
trying
your
best
to
avoid
repeating
them.
Such
imagination
techniques
help
you
to
connect
yourself
with
your
soul.
【答案】Many

regard
daydreaming
as
a
