Last
Friday,
a
big
storm
destroyed
two
villages
in
South
Africa.
Over
200
people
became
homeless
because
of
the
storm.
A
farmer,
Smith,
said
the
storm
began
early
in
the
morning
and
lasted
one
hour.
“At
that
time
I
was
in
the
kitchen
with
my
wife
and
two
children,”he
said,
“then
we
heard
a
loud
noise.
A
few
minutes
later,
our
house
fell
down.
We
managed
to
climb
out,
but
then
I
saw
that
one
of
my
children
was
missing.
I
went
back
inside
and
found
him
safe
but
frightened.”
Soldiers
helped
the
local
people,
and
the
government
provided
food,
clothes
and
shelters
for
the
homeless.

B
One
of
my
wonderful
memories
is
about
a
Christmas
gift.
Unlike
other
gifts,
it
came
without
wrap.
On
September
11th,1958,
Mum
gave
birth
to
Richard.
After
she
brought
him
home
from
hospital,
she
put
him
in
my
lap,
saying,
“I
promised
you
a
gift,
and
here
it
is.”
What
an
honor!
I
turned
four
a
month
earlier
and
none
of
my
friends
had
such
a
baby
doll
of
their
own.
I
played
with
it
day
and
night.
I
sang
to
it.
I
told
it
stories.
I
told
it
over
and
over
how
much
I
loved
it!
One
morning,
however,
I
found
its
bed
empty.
My
doll
was
gone!
I
cried
for
it.
Mum
wept
and
told
me
that
the
poor
little
thing
had
been
sent
to
a
hospital.
It
had
a
fever.
For
several
days,
I
heard
Mum
and
Dad
whispering
such
words
as
“hopeless”,
“pitiful”,
and
“dying”,
which
sounded
ominous.
Christmas
was
coming.
“Don't
expect
any
presents
this
year,”
Dad
said,
pointing
at
the
socks
I
hung
in
the
living
room.
“If
your
baby
brother
lives,
that'll
be
Christmas
enough.”
As
he
spoke,
his
eyes
were
filled
with
tears.
I'd
never
seen
him
cry
before.
The
phone
rang
early
on
Christmas
morning.
Dad
jumped
out
of
bed
to
answer
it.
From
my
bedroom
I
heard
him
say,
“What?
He's
all
right?”
He
hung
up
and
shouted
upstairs.
“The
hospital
said
we
can
bring
Richard
home.”
“Thank
God!”
I
heard
Mum
cry.
From
the
upstairs
window,
I
watched
my
parents
rush
out
to
the
car.
I
had
never
seen
them
so
happy.
And
I
was
also
full
of
joy.
What
a
wonderful
day!
My
baby
doll
would
be
home.
I
ran
downstairs.
My
socks
still
hung
there
flat.
But
I
knew
they
were
not
empty;
they
were
filled
with
love!

C
Food
serves
as
a
form
of
communication
in
two
fundamental
ways.
Sharing
bread
or
other
foods
is
a
common
human
tradition
that
can
promote
unity
and
trust.
Food
can
also
have
a
specific
meaning,
and
play
a
significant
role
in
a
family
or
culture's
celebrations
or
traditions.
The
foods
we
eat—and
when
and
how
we
eat
them—are
often
unique
to
a
particular
culture
or
may
even
differ
between
rural
(农村的)
and
urban
areas
within
one
country.
Sharing
bread,
whether
during
a
special
occasion
(时刻)
or
at
the
family
dinner
table,
is
a
common
symbol
of
togetherness.
Many
cultures
also
celebrate
birthdays
and
marriages
with
cakes
that
are
cut
and
shared
among
the
guests.
Early
forms
of
cake
were
simply
a
kind
of
bread,
so
this
tradition
has
its
roots
in
the
custom
of
sharing
bread.
Food
also
plays
an
important
role
in
many
New
Year
celebrations.
In
the
southern
United
States,
pieces
of
corn
bread
represent
blocks
of
gold
for
prosperity
(兴旺)
in
the
New
Year.
In
Greece,
people
share
a
special
cake
called
vasilopita.
A
coin
is
put
into
the
cake,
which
signifies
(预示)
success
in
the
New
Year
for
the
person
who
receives
it.
Many
cultures
have
ceremonies
to
celebrate
the
birth
of
a
child,
and
food
can
play
a
significant
role.
In
China,
when
a
baby
is
one
month
old,
families
name
and
welcome
their
child
in
a
celebration
that
includes
giving
red?colored
eggs
to
guests.
In
many
cultures,
round
foods
such
as
grapes,
bread,
and
moon
cakes
are
eaten
at
welcome
celebrations
to
represent
family
unity.
Nutrition
is
necessary
for
life,
so
it
is
not
surprising
that
food
is
such
an
important
part
of
different
cultures
around
the

D
For
many,
music
is
as
important
to
the
human
experience
as
eating
and
breathing.
We
hear
music
everywhere—at
home,
the
gym,
parties
and
stores.
But
what
kind
of
music
do
we
prefer
to
listen
to,
and
when
and
why
do
our
musical
preferences
change?
The
relationship
between
the
change
of
seasons
and
musical
preferences
was
the
focus
of
a
study
led
by
psychologist
Terry
Pettijohn.
He
and
his
team
based
their
research
on
a
previous
study
that
examined
the
relationship
between
popular
music
preferences
and
the
Environmental
Security
Assumption.
The
results
showed
that
over
time,
when
social
and
financial
conditions
were
more
risky,
the
songs
of
the
year
that
were
slower,
longer,
more
comforting
and
serious
were
most
popular.
And
during
periods
in
which
social
and
financial
conditions
were
generally
stable,
the
result
is
opposite.
Building
on
these
findings,
Pettijohn
and
his
team
wondered
if
the
Hypothesis
could
also
be
applied
to
the
change
of
seasons.
For
college
students,
the
participants
in
this
study,
autumn
begins
at
the
start
of
the
academic
school
year.
Gone
are
the
carefree
days
of
summer,
when
school
is
out.
When
summer
comes
clocks
fall
back,
stealing
an
hour
of
daylight,
which
feel
like
losing
precious
time.
Winter
means
colder
temperatures,
shorter
days,
and,
in
many
places
in
the
country,
snow.
Spring,
however,
is
a
different
story.
It
represents
a
fresh
start
and
when
clocks
spring
forward,
we
gain
an
extra
hour
of
day
light.
As
students
walk
into
summer,
they're
absorbed
in
the
sunshine
and
social
activity—and
enjoy
a
break
from
school.
But
do
changing
seasonal
conditions
influence
musical
preferences?
To
answer
this
question,
the
researchers
designed
two
studies.
What
did
they
find?
Both
groups
of
college
students
favored
more
serious
music
during
the
seasons
of
fall
and
winter,
and
more
active
and
energetic
music
during
the
spring
and
summer
seasons.
And
these
findings,
Pettijohn
argues,
have
practical
significances.
本文是一篇说明文,一项新的研究发现,季节的变化对个人的音乐偏好有着不同的影响。
32.The
purpose
of
the
question
raised
in
Paragraph
1
is
to
________.
A.present
a
different
opinion
on
music
B.prove
where
to
listen
to
music
matters
C.introduce
the
topic
on
musical
preferences
D.stress
the
importance
of
music
to
humans
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。第一段提出问题之后,第二段马上切入本文的主题“The
relationship
between
the
change
of
seasons
and
musical
preferences
was
the
focus
of
a
study
led
by
psychologist
Terry
Pettijohn.”由此可以推断,第一段提出问题的目的是引入关于音乐偏好的话题。
33.What
influences
a
person's
choice
of
music
types
according
to
the
previous
study?
A.Whether
one
has
enough
free
time.
B.Whether
one
lives
in
a
stable
situation.
C.Whether
one
is
exposed
to
sunlight.
D.Whether
one
chooses
to
change
his
life.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知,人们是否生活在一个稳定的环境中会对个人的音乐偏好产生影响。
34.What
does
Paragraph
3
imply?
A.Spring
has
a
special
meaning
to
people.
B.Students
aren't
fond
of
school
in
any
season.
C.The
Hypothesis
disagrees
with
Pettijohn's
studies.
D.The
length
of
summer
time
is
longer
than
winter
time.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Spring,
however,
is
a
different
story.
It
represents
a
fresh
start
and
when
clocks
spring
forward,
we
gain
an
extra
hour
of
day
light.”可以推断,春天对于人们有着特别的意义。
35.How
does
Pettijohn
feel
about
the
findings
of
his
studies?
A.It's
unexpected.
B.It's
significant.
C.It's
humorous.
D.It's
discouraging.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“And
these
findings,
Pettijohn
argues,
have
practical
significances.”可知,Pettijohn觉得他的研究发现具有重大意义。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There
are
two
keys
to
being
a
better
conversationalist.
One
is
to
concentrate
more
on
the
persons
you're
speaking
with.
The
other
is
to
focus
on
satisfying
their
needs
instead
of
your
own.
__36__
Use
people's
names
more.
Our
names
are
“the
sweetest
and
most
important
sound”
to
us.
__37__
In
conversation,
you
can
use
this
to
your
advantage
by
asking
for
their
names,
and
then
dropping
their
names
occasionally
throughout
the
conversation
later
on.
__38__
Talking
about
ourselves
results
in
the
same
feeling
of
pleasure
in
the
brain
as
food
or
money.
Individuals
place
high
subjective
value
on
opportunities
to
communicate
their
thoughts
and
feelings
to
others.
An
attention?giver
will
give
his
undivided
attention
to
the
individuals,
and
allow
them
to
the
conversation
on
themselves
to
feel
important.
Repeat
the
last
three
words.
__39__
Simply
repeat
the
last
two
or
three
words
an
individual
said
in
a
sympathetic,
questioning
tone.
This
is
known
as
“The
Echo
(回声)
Effect”,
which
will
allow
the
conversation
to
go
back
to
the
person,
and
make
him
feel
more
important.
Stress
similarities.
Naturally,
we
tend
to
bond
with
people
who
are
like
us.
__40__
When
individuals
were
asked
what
they
wanted
in
a
partner;
the
majority
said
they
would
prefer
a
complementary
(互补的)
partner
rather
than
a
similar
one.
But
the
individuals
were
more
likely
to
choose
a
partner
who
they
thought
was
very
similar
to
them.
A.Talk
more
about
ourselves.
B.Repeating
makes
your
partner
important.
C.Encourage
people
to
talk
about
themselves.
D.However,
we
seem
to
be
unaware
of
this
fact.
E.In
brief,
be
an
attention?giver
rather
than
an
attention?getter.
F.Repetition
is
most
suitable
in
terms
of
good
communication
skills.
G.We
are
more
likely
to
be
in
tune
with
others
when
they
say
our
names.
这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了几种聊天的技巧。
36.E 解析:本空总结上文,引出下文,故E项“总之,做一个注意力给予者而不是注意力获得者”符合语境。
37.G 解析:根据该段小标题Use
people's
names
more和选项G中的“when
they
say
our
names”可知答案。
38.C 解析:由下文中“Talking
about
ourselves
results
in
the
same
feeling
of
pleasure
in
the
brain
as
food
or
money.”可知,谈论我们自己能像谈论食物和金钱一样让我们的大脑产生一种愉悦感,再结合短文开头提到的成为一个健谈的人的两个关键(更多地关注与你交谈的人、注意满足他们的需求)可知,本段小标题应该是“鼓励人们谈论他们自己”,故答案为C。
39.F 解析:根据该段小标题Repeat
the
last
three
words.及选项F中的“repetition”一词可知答案。
40.D 解析:空前提到“Naturally,
we
tend
to
bond
with
people
who
are
like
us.”(我们天生倾向于和我们像的人建立联系),下文却说“...the
majority
said
they
would
prefer
a
complementary
(互补的)
partner
rather
than
a
similar
one”(大多数人表示,他们更喜欢与自己互补的伴侣,而不是和自己相似的)。故D项“然而,我们似乎不知道这一事实”符合语境。
第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
A
few
years
ago
I
chose
to
carry
out
a
“word
of
the
year”.
As
I
began
2014,
I
looked
forward
to
how
the
word
“__41__”
would
shape
the
coming
year.
I
planned
to
give
a
gift
a
day
for
the
__42__
year.
Some
gifts
would
take
time
to
prepare.
Some
of
the
other
gifts
came
about
more
__43__,
such
as
helping
someone
cross
the
street.
But
either
way,
I
always
tried
to
seek
an
opportunity
to
serve.
Some
gifts
in
2014
__44__
reading
to
my
next
door's
kids.
I
looked
upon
that
as
my
gift
of
the
day.
My
mind
is
still
crowded
with
precious
__45__
now.
Twice
I
left
a
few
coins
deliberately
on
the
sidewalk
for
a
kid
to
find.
It
may
have
__46__
a
few
cents,
but
I
considered
it
a
chance
to
__47__
another
person's
day.
Along
the
way,
I
also
made
my
own
day
pleasant.
One
of
my
most
__48__
gifts
throughout
the
whole
year
was
letting
other
__49__
go
ahead
of
me
in
line
at
stores.
Once
again,
__50__
standing
in
line
at
a
store
one
day,
my
son
told
me
somebody
behind
us
had
only
two
things
to
__51__.
I
signed
to
the
person
to
take
our
place
in
line.
The
few
__52__
minutes
of
wait
time
passed
with
my
hardly
realizing
it.
They
were
minutes
passing
__53__.
Although
this
act
of
__54__
didn't
deserve
something
surprising,
it
remains
one
of
my
favorite
gifts
of
2014
and
all
because
I
saw
how
my
__55__
to
give
had
become
part
of
my
children's
lives
as
well.

答案:D
解析:虽然这种给予行为不足为奇,但它成了2014年“我”最喜爱的(favorite)礼物之一,这完全是因为“我”看到了“我”选择(choice)给予他人的方式也已经影响了“我”的孩子的生活。第二段首句“I
planned
to
give
a
gift
a
day
for
the
__42__
year”表明了全文的关键词为“give”,下文始终围绕该词展开。
55.A.ability
B.arrangement
C.choice
D.hesitation
答案:C
解析:根据第一段可知,几年前,“我”选择用一年的时间来践行一个词,2014年,“我”挑选的词是“gift”,故此处指“我”的选择,故选choice。ability“能力,才智”;arrangement“安排,筹备,布置,商定”;hesitation“犹豫”。

Hello,
everyone,
Last
weekend,
I
visited
the
National
Museum.
What
I'm
most
interested
in
is
a
type
of
drinking
vessel.
This
vessel,
called
Jue,
was
first
discovered
in
Anyang,
Henan
Province,
which
was
made
of
bronze.
The
vessel
is
17.1cm
high
and
has
three
legs.
The
middle
part,
which
is
a
U?shaped
body,
is
the
cup
of
the
vessel
and
it
is
decorated
with
carved
patterns.
There
is
a
handle
at
one
side.
It
was
used
to
drink
during
the
Shang
Dynasty
and
was
a
symbol
of
authority.
The
appearance
of
the
vessel
is
very
beautiful,
which
shows
that
it
has
experienced
a
long
process
of
development.
It
shows
the
high
level
skills
at
bronze
craftsmanship
of
people
at
that
time.
It
also
shows
that
the
people
had
a
fairly
high
standard
of
living
and
culture
of
their
own.
第二节:读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
It
was
somewhere
between
spring
and
summer,
my
mom
and
I
were
driving
through
the
countryside.
Back
then,
I
was
13
years
old,
and
always
felt
unhappy
with
Mom.
But
little
did
I
know
that
this
trip
was
going
to
be
a
special
one.
A
pot
of
flowers
sat
in
the
back
seat,
whose
heavenly
scent
filled
the
car.
Suddenly,
in
the
middle
of
nowhere,
my
mom
pulled
over.
“What
are
you
doing?”
I
cried,
fearing
that
the
car
had
broken
down
and
we'd
be
stuck
there,
so
far
from
home.
But
that
wasn't
the
case.
My
mom
hopped
out
of
the
car,
grabbing
the
flowers
from
the
back
seat.
“It'll
just
be
a
minute,”
she
called
back
through
the
open
windows.
My
eyes
impatiently
skimmed
the
edge
of
the
road
before
settling
on
a
little
sign
showing
that
it
was
a
nursing
home.
I
looked
back
to
the
building,
somewhat
annoyed,
as
my
mom
reappeared
empty?handed.
Before
she
started
the
car,
curiosity
drove
me
to
ask,
“Do
you
know
someone
there?”
She
shook
her
head.
“Then
what
did
you
do
with
the
flowers?”
She
smiled
slightly,
“I
gave
them
to
the
receptionist.”
“What?”
She
laughed
at
my
confusion.
“I
told
the
receptionist
to
give
the
flowers
to
whoever
needed
them,
especially
who
hasn't
gotten
any
in
a
while.”
I
kept
silent
for
a
moment.
Not
long
after
we
continued
our
driving,
I
spoke
again,
“Did
you
leave
your
name?”
To
this
she
answered
instantly,
“No.
Leaving
flowers
there
for
someone
who
will
appreciate
them
makes
me
feel
good,
which
is
enough
of
a
thank
for
me.”
Suddenly,
still
thinking
about
Mom's
deeds,
I
heard
something
burst
loudly.
It
was
our
car
that
broke
down!
Nothing
could
be
worse,
because
neither
my
mom
nor
I
understood
how
to
repair
it,
and
we
didn't
know
where
the
garage
was.
It
also
seemed
impossible
to
wait
for
any
passer?by,
since
we
had
seen
so
few
along
the
way.
答案
Paragraph
1:
We
were
worrying
about
what
could
be
done.
But
after
waiting
in
vain
for
a
considerable
time,
Mom
and
I
decided
to
walk
back
the
road
to
the
nursing
home
and
seek
help.
God
knows
how
far
we
had
driven!
When
we
arrived,
the
receptionist
was
surprised,
but
warmly
helped
us
contact
the
garage.
There,
the
old
men
who
had
received
the
flowers
were
excited
to
meet
us,
talking
about
how
great
that
day
was.
It
amazed
me
what
a
random
action
of
kindness
could
mean
to
the
people
who
received
it.
While
we
were
laughing
and
talking
merrily,
the
garage
got
our
car
repaired.
Paragraph
2:
As
we
drove
along,
a
flower
shop
came
into
sight
on
the
road.
I
paced
quickly
into
the
flower
shop,
where
a
bunch
of
flowers
glowing
red
in
full
bloom
caught
my
eye.
Having
witnessed
the
effect
of
kindness,
I
decided
to
send
Mom
the
sweet
flowers.
Soon,
the
heavenly
scent
filled
the
car
again.
Mom
tried
to
conceal
her
excitement,
but
the
glittering
tears
failed
her.
Through
this
trip,
I
discovered
that,
despite
my
occasional
anger
towards
her,
I
actually
felt
proud
of
her.
This
was
the
trip
of
my
life.

One
of
my
wonderful
memories
is
about
a
Christmas
gift.
Unlike
other
gifts,
it
came
without
wrap.
On
September
11th,1958,
Mum
gave
birth
to
Richard.
After
she
brought
him
home
from
hospital,
she
put
him
in
my
lap,
saying,
“I
promised
you
a
gift,
and
here
it
is.”
What
an
honor!
I
turned
four
a
month
earlier
and
none
of
my
friends
had
such
a
baby
doll
of
their
own.
I
played
with
it
day
and
night.
I
sang
to
it.
I
told
it
stories.
I
told
it
over
and
over
how
much
I
loved
it!
One
morning,
however,
I
found
its
bed
empty.
My
doll
was
gone!
I
cried
for
it.
Mum
wept
and
told
me
that
the
poor
little
thing
had
been
sent
to
a
hospital.
It
had
a
fever.
For
several
days,
I
heard
Mum
and
Dad
whispering
such
words
as
“hopeless”,
“pitiful”,
and
“dying”,
which
sounded
ominous.
Christmas
was
coming.
“Don't
expect
any
presents
this
year,”
Dad
said,
pointing
at
the
socks
I
hung
in
the
living
room.
“If
your
baby
brother
lives,
that'll
be
Christmas
enough.”
As
he
spoke,
his
eyes
were
filled
with
tears.
I'd
never
seen
him
cry
before.
The
phone
rang
early
on
Christmas
morning.
Dad
jumped
out
of
bed
to
answer
it.
From
my
bedroom
I
heard
him
say,
“What?
He's
all
right?”
He
hung
up
and
shouted
upstairs.
“The
hospital
said
we
can
bring
Richard
home.”
“Thank
God!”
I
heard
Mum
cry.
From
the
upstairs
window,
I
watched
my
parents
rush
out
to
the
car.
I
had
never
seen
them
so
happy.
And
I
was
also
full
of
joy.
What
a
wonderful
day!
My
baby
doll
would
be
home.
I
ran
downstairs.
My
socks
still
hung
there
flat.
But
I
knew
they
were
not
empty;
they
were
filled
with
love!

Food
serves
as
a
form
of
communication
in
two
fundamental
ways.
Sharing
bread
or
other
foods
is
a
common
human
tradition
that
can
promote
unity
and
trust.
Food
can
also
have
a
specific
meaning,
and
play
a
significant
role
in
a
family
or
culture's
celebrations
or
traditions.
The
foods
we
eat—and
when
and
how
we
eat
them—are
often
unique
to
a
particular
culture
or
may
even
differ
between
rural
(农村的)
and
urban
areas
within
one
country.
Sharing
bread,
whether
during
a
special
occasion
(时刻)
or
at
the
family
dinner
table,
is
a
common
symbol
of
togetherness.
Many
cultures
also
celebrate
birthdays
and
marriages
with
cakes
that
are
cut
and
shared
among
the
guests.
Early
forms
of
cake
were
simply
a
kind
of
bread,
so
this
tradition
has
its
roots
in
the
custom
of
sharing
bread.
Food
also
plays
an
important
role
in
many
New
Year
celebrations.
In
the
southern
United
States,
pieces
of
corn
bread
represent
blocks
of
gold
for
prosperity
(兴旺)
in
the
New
Year.
In
Greece,
people
share
a
special
cake
called
vasilopita.
A
coin
is
put
into
the
cake,
which
signifies
(预示)
success
in
the
New
Year
for
the
person
who
receives
it.
Many
cultures
have
ceremonies
to
celebrate
the
birth
of
a
child,
and
food
can
play
a
significant
role.
In
China,
when
a
baby
is
one
month
old,
families
name
and
welcome
their
child
in
a
celebration
that
includes
giving
red?colored
eggs
to
guests.
In
many
cultures,
round
foods
such
as
grapes,
bread,
and
moon
cakes
are
eaten
at
welcome
celebrations
to
represent
family
unity.
Nutrition
is
necessary
for
life,
so
it
is
not
surprising
that
food
is
such
an
important
part
of
different
cultures
around
the
world.
本文是一篇议论文。文章讲述了食物在交际方面起着重要作用,共享食物可以增强人们彼此间的团结与信任,某些特殊食物也是节日的象征。
28.According

help
to
develop
unity
C.is
a
custom
unique
to
rural
areas
D.has
its
roots
in
birthday
celebrations
29.What
does
the
coin
in
vasilopita
signify
for
its
receiver
in
the
New
Year?
A.Trust.
B.Success.
C.Health.
D.Togetherness.
30.The
author
explains
the
role
of
food
in
celebrations
by
________.
A.using
examples
B.making
comparisons

causes

processes

is
the
passage
mainly
about?

custom
of
sharing
food.
B.The
specific
meaning
of
food.
C.The
role
of
food
in
ceremonies.
D.The
importance
of
food
in
culture.
D
For
many,
music
is
as
important
to
the
human
experience
as
eating
and
breathing.
We
hear
music
everywhere—at
home,
the
gym,
parties
and
stores.
But
what
kind
of
music
do
we
prefer
to
listen
to,
and
when
and
why
do
our
musical
preferences
change?
The
relationship
between
the
change
of
seasons
and
musical
preferences
was
the
focus
of
a
study
led
by
psychologist
Terry
Pettijohn.
He
and
his
team
based
their
research
on
a
previous
study
that
examined
the
relationship
between
popular
music
preferences
and
the
Environmental
Security
Assumption.
The
results
showed
that
over
time,
when
social
and
financial
conditions
were
more
risky,
the
songs
of
the
year
that
were
slower,
longer,
more
comforting
and
serious
were
most
popular.
And
during
periods
in
which
social
and
financial
conditions
were
generally
stable,
the
result
is
opposite.
Building
on
these
findings,
Pettijohn
and
his
team
wondered
if
the
Hypothesis
could
also
be
applied
to
the
change
of
seasons.
For
college
students,
the
participants
in
this
study,
autumn
begins
at
the
start
of
the
academic
school
year.
Gone
are
the
carefree
days
of
summer,
when
school
is
out.
When
summer
comes
clocks
fall
back,
stealing
an
hour
of
daylight,
which
feel
like
losing
precious
time.
Winter
means
colder
temperatures,
shorter
days,
and,
in
many
places
in
the
country,
snow.
Spring,
however,
is
a
different
story.
It
represents
a
fresh
start
and
when
clocks
spring
forward,
we
gain
an
extra
hour
of
day
light.
As
students
walk
into
summer,
they're
absorbed
in
the
sunshine
and
social
activity—and
enjoy
a
break
from
school.
But
do
changing
seasonal
conditions
influence
musical
preferences?
To
answer
this
question,
the
researchers
designed
two
studies.
What
did
they
find?
Both
groups
of
college
students
favored
more
serious
music
during
the
seasons
of
fall
and
winter,
and
more
active
and
energetic
music
during
the
spring
and
summer
seasons.
And
these
findings,
Pettijohn
argues,
have
practical
significances.

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There
are
two
keys
to
being
a
better
conversationalist.
One
is
to
concentrate
more
on
the
persons
you're
speaking
with.
The
other
is
to
focus
on
satisfying
their
needs
instead
of
your
own.
__36__
Use
people's
names
more.
Our
names
are
“the
sweetest
and
most
important
sound”
to
us.
__37__
In
conversation,
you
can
use
this
to
your
advantage
by
asking
for
their
names,
and
then
dropping
their
names
occasionally
throughout
the
conversation
later
on.
__38__
Talking
about
ourselves
results
in
the
same
feeling
of
pleasure
in
the
brain
as
food
or
money.
Individuals
place
high
subjective
value
on
opportunities
to
communicate
their
thoughts
and
feelings
to
others.
An
attention?giver
will
give
his
undivided
attention
to
the
individuals,
and
allow
them
to
the
conversation
on
themselves
to
feel
important.
Repeat
the
last
three
words.
__39__
Simply
repeat
the
last
two
or
three
words
an
individual
said
in
a
sympathetic,
questioning
tone.
This
is
known
as
“The
Echo
(回声)
Effect”,
which
will
allow
the
conversation
to
go
back
to
the
person,
and
make
him
feel
more
important.
Stress
similarities.
Naturally,
we
tend
to
bond
with
people
who
are
like
us.
__40__
When
individuals
were
asked
what
they
wanted
in
a
partner;
the
majority
said
they
would
prefer
a
complementary
(互补的)
partner
rather
than
a
similar
one.
But
the
individuals
were
more
likely
to
choose
a
partner
who
they
thought
was
very
similar
to
them.
A.Talk
more
about
ourselves.
B.Repeating
makes
your
partner
important.
C.Encourage
people
to
talk
about
themselves.
D.However,
we
seem
to
be
unaware
of
this
fact.
E.In
brief,
be
an
attention?giver
rather
than
an
attention?getter.
F.Repetition
is
most
suitable
in
terms
of
good
communication
skills.
G.We
are
more
likely
to
be
in
tune
with
others
when
they
say
our
names.

第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
A
few
years
ago
I
chose
to
carry
out
a
“word
of
the
year”.
As
I
began
2014,
I
looked
forward
to
how
the
word
“__41__”
would
shape
the
coming
year.
I
planned
to
give
a
gift
a
day
for
the
__42__
year.
Some
gifts
would
take
time
to
prepare.
Some
of
the
other
gifts
came
about
more
__43__,
such
as
helping
someone
cross
the
street.
But
either
way,
I
always
tried
to
seek
an
opportunity
to
serve.
Some
gifts
in
2014
__44__
reading
to
my
next
door's
kids.
I
looked
upon
that
as
my
gift
of
the
day.
My
mind
is
still
crowded
with
precious
__45__
now.
Twice
I
left
a
few
coins
deliberately
on
the
sidewalk
for
a
kid
to
find.
It
may
have
__46__
a
few
cents,
but
I
considered
it
a
chance
to
__47__
another
person's
day.
Along
the
way,
I
also
made
my
own
day
pleasant.
One
of
my
most
__48__
gifts
throughout
the
whole
year
was
letting
other
__49__
go
ahead
of
me
in
line
at
stores.
Once
again,
__50__
standing
in
line
at
a
store
one
day,
my
son
told
me
somebody
behind
us
had
only
two
things
to
__51__.
I
signed
to
the
person
to
take
our
place
in
line.
The
few
__52__
minutes
of
wait
time
passed
with
my
hardly
realizing
it.
They
were
minutes
passing
__53__.
Although
this
act
of
__54__
didn't
deserve
something
surprising,
it
remains
one
of
my
favorite
gifts
of
2014
and
all
because
I
saw
how
my
__55__
to
give
had
become
part
of
my
children's
lives
as
well.

It
was
somewhere
between
spring
and
summer,
my
mom
and
I
were
driving
through
the
countryside.
Back
then,
I
was
13
years
old,
and
always
felt
unhappy
with
Mom.
But
little
did
I
know
that
this
trip
was
going
to
be
a
special
one.
A
pot
of
flowers
sat
in
the
back
seat,
whose
heavenly
scent
filled
the
car.
Suddenly,
in
the
middle
of
nowhere,
my
mom
pulled
over.
“What
are
you
doing?”
I
cried,
fearing
that
the
car
had
broken
down
and
we'd
be
stuck
there,
so
far
from
home.
But
that
wasn't
the
case.
My
mom
hopped
out
of
the
car,
grabbing
the
flowers
from
the
back
seat.
“It'll
just
be
a
minute,”
she
called
back
through
the
open
windows.
My
eyes
impatiently
skimmed
the
edge
of
the
road
before
settling
on
a
little
sign
showing
that
it
was
a
nursing
home.
I
looked
back
to
the
building,
somewhat
annoyed,
as
my
mom
reappeared
empty?handed.
Before
she
started
the
car,
curiosity
drove
me
to
ask,
“Do
you
know
someone
there?”
She
shook
her
head.
“Then
what
did
you
do
with
the
flowers?”
She
smiled
slightly,
“I
gave
them
to
the
receptionist.”
“What?”
She
laughed
at
my
confusion.
“I
told
the
receptionist
to
give
the
flowers
to
whoever
needed
them,
especially
who
hasn't
gotten
any
in
a
while.”
I
kept
silent
for
a
moment.
Not
long
after
we
continued
our
driving,
I
spoke
again,
“Did
you
leave
your
name?”
To
this
she
answered
instantly,
“No.
Leaving
flowers
there
for
someone
who
will
appreciate
them
makes
me
feel
good,
which
is
enough
of
a
thank
for
me.”
Suddenly,
still
thinking
about
Mom's
deeds,
I
heard
something
burst
loudly.
It
was
our
car
that
broke
down!
Nothing
could
be
worse,
because
neither
my
mom
nor
I
understood
how
to
repair
it,
and
we
didn't
know
where
the
garage
was.
It
also
seemed
impossible
to
wait
for
any
passer?by,
since
we
had
seen
so
few
along
the
way.
