一、阅读选择
As you move out of your teens and into your 20s and 30s, your musical tastes start to solidify and you likely quit keeping up with popular music. Now, research has found the average age at which your music library is unlikely to change: 33.
The study's author reached this conclusion by analyzing data on U.S. Spotify users and comparing it to artist popularity data from music intelligence company The Echo Nest.
To determine the age at which we stop seeking out new tunes, the author gathered self-reported age data from Spotify and looked at users' "Taste Profiles," which tacks how many times listeners have streamed individual artists. These artists were then: matched to their popularity rank on The Echo Nest.
The average teen listens almost only to music among the Billboard, the 200 highest-ranking albums in the country, but this music represents a smaller part of their steaming as they age. In their teens, they listen to a lot of the same music, over and over again. Frank T. McAndrew, a professor of psychology at Knox Coll explains that's the "mere exposure effect" at work, and it basically means, the more we're exposed to something, the more we like it.
There are many reasons why a person may stop streaming the current top musical hits, and the author looked into one by identifying Spotify listeners with large amounts of children's music and nursery rhymes in their libraries. In other words, when users may have become parents.
But the study concludes with some good news for parents: “If you're getting older and can't find yourself staying as relevant as you used to, have no fear — just wait for your kids to become teenagers, and you'll get exposed to all the popular music of the day once again!”
1．What happens after teens grow older?
A．They quit listening to music. B．Their interest in music fades.
C．Their musical tastes become stable. D．They change their music libraries.
2．How do teens develop their musical tastes?
A．They act like their favorite popular stars.
B．They listen to what they like repeatedly.
C．They experience different styles of music.
D．They like high-ranking music worldwide.
3．What's the good news for parents in the last paragraph?
A．Parents will regain their faith in music.
B．Parents will influence their teens in music.
C．Parents will hear their favorite music again.
D．Parents will enjoy the music for teens again.
Most adults firmly believe that as kids reach their teens, they start to take crazy risks that get them in trouble. Do teenagers simply love taking all risks much more than adults? A recent study suggests otherwise.
Scientists designed a simple experiment involving 33 teenagers and three other age groups. In the experiment, the researchers tried to distinguish between two very different kinds of risk-taking. The first they called a willingness to take known risks (when the probability of winning is clear) and the second they called a willingness to take unknown risks (when the possibility of success is uncertain).
The study offered participants the opportunity to play two kinds of games. They had the chance to win money, with one game offering a known risk and the other offering an unknown risk. On each round of the game, each participant had to choose between taking a sure $5 and known or unknown risks of winning a lot more. If on one particular round they had picked the $5 for sure choice, then they got $5. But if on that round they had chosen to take a risk, the rules of the game will determine whether or not they had won. If they did win, they went home with between $8 and $125. And, of course, if they lost, they went home with nothing.
What the scientists found was really quite surprising. It turned out that the average teenager was very hesitant when risks were known—more careful than college students or parents-aged adults, and about as careful as grandparent-aged adults. This means that when the risks were known, teenagers were not risky in their behavior at all. Only when the risks were unclear did teenagers choose them more often than other groups. Under those kinds of conditions, they were much more willing to take a risk than any other group.
So, what does all of this mean? The research suggests that adults should probably focus more energy on trying to educate teenagers about risks than limiting them. Teenagers who understand the risks associated with a decision are more likely to be careful in their behavior.
4．This experiment was carried out by ________.
A．dividing the teens into three groups
B．comparing the reactions to different risks
C．giving equal amount of awards to the participants
D．observing the emotional changes of the teenager
5．Which group in the study were more likely to take unknown risks?
A．Teenagers. B．College students.
C．Parent-aged adults. D．Grandparent-aged adults.
6．According to the study, parents should focus on ________.
A．guaranteeing children to be careful
B．setting age limits on dangerous activities
C．respecting teens to make their own choices
D．guiding teens to learn more about the effect of risks
Store owners have been inventing new tricks to get consumers into their stores and purchasing their goods. Even as we find new strategies to resist, neuroscientists (神经科学家) are employed at marketing agencies across the country to best figure out what is going through a consumer’s brain at each point in the decision process.
We consumers overspend due to the fact that we have a fear of missing the really good deal or having to pay more for the same thing and lose money. Normally, the prefrontal cortex ( 前 额皮 层 ) controls our emotional reactions to things, and keeps us from acting unreasonably by calming down our fears. But an advertiser can disturb our prefrontal cortex just by displaying flashy deal signs, encouraging it to do math on how much money we might save now by buying more of something we don’t actually need yet.
Nostalgia, that regretful affection for past events, is another strong influencer during the holiday season, and it’s shaped by emotion. Emotion—whether good or bad—enhances the formation of memories, engaging more parts of the brain. So hearing a nephew singing a carol, for instance, might reawaken memories associated with that particular song in a much more powerful way than hearing that same nephew sing another song. These kinds of memories are brought back even more easily by sensory input. This might be why we are often greeted by a sensory reminder everywhere we go in a month.
Wherever you purchase gifts, there are social influences on what you buy as well. The holidays are a time when we are especially conditioned to pay more for the label because we’re buying gifts. Receiving a brand-name gift sends the message that “this person has spent more on me, so he or she must value me more.” And it makes sense. If two things seem pretty much the same, how do I know which to choose? Humans have survived as a social species, and we have to rely on each other. So when our brains are trying to make decisions, one of the shortcuts is to assume that if a lot of other people prefer something (and higher cost is often a predictor of that), then there must be a reason.
Much of our holiday spending is driven by unplanned purchases. Plan ahead, resist the urge to purchase in the moment, make notes for comparison shopping, and if the deal is actually good, then it will hold up to inspection and you’ll feel good about your purchases later. Before you blow your budget this season, remember that your brain might be fooling you into that next purchase.
7．From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______.
A．the prefrontal cortex is the calculation center
B．the common consumers always act unreasonably
C．the sight of flashy deal signs may fill consumers with fear
D．the advertisers make consumers pay more for the same thing
8．According to Paragraph 3, which of the following can work on consumers?
A．Creating a festival atmosphere. B．Following the current fashion.
C．Preparing more free samples. D．Offering a bigger discount.
9．Why do we buy brand-name gifts during the holiday?
A．They are more reliable. B．They are a sign of social status.
C．They make people feel valued. D．They are favored by most people.
10．To avoid overspending, the author suggests we ______.
A．buy in the moment B．reduce our budget
C．return unnecessary products D．make a plan in advance
二、七选五

九、概要写作
81．阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Is the traditional family dinner a thing of the past? In today’s households where both parents go to work and kids have busy schedules with school, an array of afternoon activities and much homework, finding time for a gathering at the table seems impossible. Yet, studies have shown time and again that eating together has multiple benefits for family members, especially children.
According to a number of reports issued by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, children who eat at least five times a week with their family are at lower risk of developing poor eating habits, weight problems or alcohol dependencies, and tend to perform better academically than their peers who frequently eat alone or away from home.
Eating together as a family is not just about food and nutrition. “Food has become so easily and cheaply available that we no longer appreciate its significance,” says Professor Robin Fox, who teaches anthropology at Rutgers University in New Jersey. "We have to rediscover its importance and its value." Sharing a meal with loved ones should be considered a special event, which can almost take on the form of a ceremony, as it was practiced by our ancestors, for whom finding food was a constant struggle.
Besides appreciation for the value of food, there are also many social elements that come into play when families share meals, says Miriam Weinstein, author of The Surprising Power of Family Meals. The dinner table can be the perfect environment where kids learn how to conduct conversations, observe good manners, serve others, listen, solve conflicts and compromise.
Of course, there is no guarantee that the simple act of eating at home surrounded by family will save children from developing unhealthy lifestyles or making regrettable choices down the road. It may not make them more virtuous (品行端正的) or socially more responsible. But it can form a basis for a lot of things that point them in the right direction.

这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲了科学家们做了一个实验，比较了在已知风险和未知风险下各个年龄组的反应和选择。研究发现当面对已知的风险时，青少年倾向于谨慎，同时在面对未知风险时，青少年也更有可能冒险。这项研究表明，父母应该集中精力引导青少年更多地了解风险的影响。
4．
推理判断题。根据第二段“Scientists designed a simple experiment involving 33 teenagers and three other age groups. In the experiment, the researchers tried to distinguish between two very different kinds of risk-taking. The first they called a willingness to take known risks (when the probability of winning is clear) and the second they called a willingness to take unknown risks (when the possibility of success is uncertain).(科学家设计了一个简单的实验，涉及33名青少年和其他三个年龄组。在实验中，研究人员试图区分两种截然不同的冒险行为。第一种，他们称之为愿意承担已知风险（获胜概率很明确时）；第二种，他们称之为愿意承担未知风险（成功的可能性不确定时）)”可推知，这个实验是通过比较对不同风险的反应来进行的。故选B。

【分析】
这是一篇概要写作。
【详解】
写作步骤
1）细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握文章主旨。
2）弄清结构，归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要，不是写某一部分的概要，或者就某些问题写出要点。因此一定要弄清文章结构，归纳文章各段大意。
3）列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构，将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。
4）在写作时要特别注意下面几点：
（1）概要应包括原文中的主要事实，略去不必要的细节。
（2）安排好篇幅的比例，概要应同原文保持协调，即用较多的文字写重要内容，用较少的文字写次要内容。
（3）注意要点之间的衔接，要用适当的关联词语贯通全文，切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子，但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语，以免显得生硬。
（4）不排斥用原文的某些词句，但不要照搬原文的句子，如果不能完全用自己的话语表达，至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换，如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。
（5）计算词数，看是否符合规定的词数要求。

一、阅读选择
As you move out of your teens and into your 20s and 30s, your musical tastes start to solidify and you likely quit keeping up with popular music. Now, research has found the average age at which your music library is unlikely to change: 33.
The study's author reached this conclusion by analyzing data on U.S. Spotify users and comparing it to artist popularity data from music intelligence company The Echo Nest.
To determine the age at which we stop seeking out new tunes, the author gathered self-reported age data from Spotify and looked at users' "Taste Profiles," which tacks how many times listeners have streamed individual artists. These artists were then: matched to their popularity rank on The Echo Nest.
The average teen listens almost only to music among the Billboard, the 200 highest-ranking albums in the country, but this music represents a smaller part of their steaming as they age. In their teens, they listen to a lot of the same music, over and over again. Frank T. McAndrew, a professor of psychology at Knox Coll explains that's the "mere exposure effect" at work, and it basically means, the more we're exposed to something, the more we like it.
There are many reasons why a person may stop streaming the current top musical hits, and the author looked into one by identifying Spotify listeners with large amounts of children's music and nursery rhymes in their libraries. In other words, when users may have become parents.
But the study concludes with some good news for parents: “If you're getting older and can't find yourself staying as relevant as you used to, have no fear — just wait for your kids to become teenagers, and you'll get exposed to all the popular music of the day once again!”
1．What happens after teens grow older?
A．They quit listening to music. B．Their interest in music fades.
C．Their musical tastes become stable. D．They change their music libraries.
2．How do teens develop their musical tastes?
A．They act like their favorite popular stars.
B．They listen to what they like repeatedly.
C．They experience different styles of music.
D．They like high-ranking music worldwide.
3．What's the good news for parents in the last paragraph?
A．Parents will regain their faith in music.
B．Parents will influence their teens in music.
C．Parents will hear their favorite music again.
D．Parents will enjoy the music for teens again.
Most adults firmly believe that as kids reach their teens, they start to take crazy risks that get them in trouble. Do teenagers simply love taking all risks much more than adults? A recent study suggests otherwise.
Scientists designed a simple experiment involving 33 teenagers and three other age groups. In the experiment, the researchers tried to distinguish between two very different kinds of risk-taking. The first they called a willingness to take known risks (when the probability of winning is clear) and the second they called a willingness to take unknown risks (when the possibility of success is uncertain).
The study offered participants the opportunity to play two kinds of games. They had the chance to win money, with one game offering a known risk and the other offering an unknown risk. On each round of the game, each participant had to choose between taking a sure $5 and known or unknown risks of winning a lot more. If on one particular round they had picked the $5 for sure choice, then they got $5. But if on that round they had chosen to take a risk, the rules of the game will determine whether or not they had won. If they did win, they went home with between $8 and $125. And, of course, if they lost, they went home with nothing.
What the scientists found was really quite surprising. It turned out that the average teenager was very hesitant when risks were known—more careful than college students or parents-aged adults, and about as careful as grandparent-aged adults. This means that when the risks were known, teenagers were not risky in their behavior at all. Only when the risks were unclear did teenagers choose them more often than other groups. Under those kinds of conditions, they were much more willing to take a risk than any other group.
So, what does all of this mean? The research suggests that adults should probably focus more energy on trying to educate teenagers about risks than limiting them. Teenagers who understand the risks associated with a decision are more likely to be careful in their behavior.
4．This experiment was carried out by ________.
A．dividing the teens into three groups
B．comparing the reactions to different risks
C．giving equal amount of awards to the participants
D．observing the emotional changes of the teenager
5．Which group in the study were more likely to take unknown risks?
A．Teenagers. B．College students.
C．Parent-aged adults. D．Grandparent-aged adults.
6．According to the study, parents should focus on ________.
A．guaranteeing children to be careful
B．setting age limits on dangerous activities
C．respecting teens to make their own choices
D．guiding teens to learn more about the effect of risks
Store owners have been inventing new tricks to get consumers into their stores and purchasing their goods. Even as we find new strategies to resist, neuroscientists (神经科学家) are employed at marketing agencies across the country to best figure out what is going through a consumer’s brain at each point in the decision process.
We consumers overspend due to the fact that we have a fear of missing the really good deal or having to pay more for the same thing and lose money. Normally, the prefrontal cortex ( 前 额皮 层 ) controls our emotional reactions to things, and keeps us from acting unreasonably by calming down our fears. But an advertiser can disturb our prefrontal cortex just by displaying flashy deal signs, encouraging it to do math on how much money we might save now by buying more of something we don’t actually need yet.
Nostalgia, that regretful affection for past events, is another strong influencer during the holiday season, and it’s shaped by emotion. Emotion—whether good or bad—enhances the formation of memories, engaging more parts of the brain. So hearing a nephew singing a carol, for instance, might reawaken memories associated with that particular song in a much more powerful way than hearing that same nephew sing another song. These kinds of memories are brought back even more easily by sensory input. This might be why we are often greeted by a sensory reminder everywhere we go in a month.
Wherever you purchase gifts, there are social influences on what you buy as well. The holidays are a time when we are especially conditioned to pay more for the label because we’re buying gifts. Receiving a brand-name gift sends the message that “this person has spent more on me, so he or she must value me more.” And it makes sense. If two things seem pretty much the same, how do I know which to choose? Humans have survived as a social species, and we have to rely on each other. So when our brains are trying to make decisions, one of the shortcuts is to assume that if a lot of other people prefer something (and higher cost is often a predictor of that), then there must be a reason.
Much of our holiday spending is driven by unplanned purchases. Plan ahead, resist the urge to purchase in the moment, make notes for comparison shopping, and if the deal is actually good, then it will hold up to inspection and you’ll feel good about your purchases later. Before you blow your budget this season, remember that your brain might be fooling you into that next purchase.
7．From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______.
A．the prefrontal cortex is the calculation center
B．the common consumers always act unreasonably
C．the sight of flashy deal signs may fill consumers with fear
D．the advertisers make consumers pay more for the same thing
8．According to Paragraph 3, which of the following can work on consumers?
A．Creating a festival atmosphere. B．Following the current fashion.
C．Preparing more free samples. D．Offering a bigger discount.
9．Why do we buy brand-name gifts during the holiday?
A．They are more reliable. B．They are a sign of social status.
C．They make people feel valued. D．They are favored by most people.
10．To avoid overspending, the author suggests we ______.
A．buy in the moment B．reduce our budget
C．return unnecessary products D．make a plan in advance

九、概要写作
81．阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Is the traditional family dinner a thing of the past? In today’s households where both parents go to work and kids have busy schedules with school, an array of afternoon activities and much homework, finding time for a gathering at the table seems impossible. Yet, studies have shown time and again that eating together has multiple benefits for family members, especially children.
According to a number of reports issued by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, children who eat at least five times a week with their family are at lower risk of developing poor eating habits, weight problems or alcohol dependencies, and tend to perform better academically than their peers who frequently eat alone or away from home.
Eating together as a family is not just about food and nutrition. “Food has become so easily and cheaply available that we no longer appreciate its significance,” says Professor Robin Fox, who teaches anthropology at Rutgers University in New Jersey. "We have to rediscover its importance and its value." Sharing a meal with loved ones should be considered a special event, which can almost take on the form of a ceremony, as it was practiced by our ancestors, for whom finding food was a constant struggle.
Besides appreciation for the value of food, there are also many social elements that come into play when families share meals, says Miriam Weinstein, author of The Surprising Power of Family Meals. The dinner table can be the perfect environment where kids learn how to conduct conversations, observe good manners, serve others, listen, solve conflicts and compromise.
Of course, there is no guarantee that the simple act of eating at home surrounded by family will save children from developing unhealthy lifestyles or making regrettable choices down the road. It may not make them more virtuous (品行端正的) or socially more responsible. But it can form a basis for a lot of things that point them in the right direction.

本文为一篇说明文。研究表明：人的音乐品味会随着年龄的增长逐渐稳定。
1．
细节理解题。根据第一段“As you move out of your teens and into your 20s and 30s, your musical tastes start to solidify and you likely quit keeping up with popular music. (当你走出十几岁，进入二三十岁，你的音乐品味开始固化，你可能会放弃流行音乐)”可知，青少年长大之后，音乐品味逐渐稳定。故选C。

3．
细节理解题。根据最后一段“If you're getting older and can't find yourself staying as relevant as you used to, have no fear — just wait for your kids to become teenagers, and you'll get exposed to all the popular music of the day once again!(如果你年纪越来越大，不能像以前那样与流行音乐保持联系，不要害怕——只要等待你的孩子变成青少年，你就会再次接触到当时所有的流行音乐！)”可知，家长们会跟着长大的孩子一起再次享受青少年的音乐。故选D。

这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲了科学家们做了一个实验，比较了在已知风险和未知风险下各个年龄组的反应和选择。研究发现当面对已知的风险时，青少年倾向于谨慎，同时在面对未知风险时，青少年也更有可能冒险。这项研究表明，父母应该集中精力引导青少年更多地了解风险的影响。
4．
推理判断题。根据第二段“Scientists designed a simple experiment involving 33 teenagers and three other age groups. In the experiment, the researchers tried to distinguish between two very different kinds of risk-taking. The first they called a willingness to take known risks (when the probability of winning is clear) and the second they called a willingness to take unknown risks (when the possibility of success is uncertain).(科学家设计了一个简单的实验，涉及33名青少年和其他三个年龄组。在实验中，研究人员试图区分两种截然不同的冒险行为。第一种，他们称之为愿意承担已知风险（获胜概率很明确时）；第二种，他们称之为愿意承担未知风险（成功的可能性不确定时）)”可推知，这个实验是通过比较对不同风险的反应来进行的。故选B。
5．
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Only when the risks were unclear did teenagers choose them more often than other groups. Under those kinds of conditions, they were much more willing to take a risk than any other group.(只有在风险不清楚的情况下，青少年才会比其他群体更频繁地选择它们。在这些条件下，他们比其他任何一组都更愿意冒险)”可知，研究中的青少年组更有可能冒未知的风险。故选A。
6．
细节理解题。根据最后一段“So, what does all of this mean? The research suggests that adults should probably focus more energy on trying to educate teenagers about risks than limiting them. Teenagers who understand the risks associated with a decision are more likely to be careful in their behavior.(那么，这一切意味着什么呢？研究表明，成年人应该把更多的精力放在对青少年进行风险教育上，而不是限制他们。了解决策风险的青少年更可能在行为上小心谨慎)”可知，根据这项研究，父母应该集中精力引导青少年更多地了解风险的影响。故选D。

7．推理判断题。根据第二段中Normally, the prefrontal cortex ( 前额皮层 ) controls our emotional reactions to things, and keeps us from acting unreasonably by calming down our fears. But an advertiser can disturb our prefrontal cortex just by displaying flashy deal signs, encouraging it to do math on how much money we might save now by buying more of something we don’t actually need yet.正常情况下，前额叶皮层控制我们对事物的情绪反应，并通过平复我们的恐惧来阻止我们做出不合理的行为。但是广告商可以通过展示华而不实的交易标志来干扰我们的前额叶皮层，鼓励它计算一下，如果我们现在多买一些我们实际上还不需要的东西，可以省下多少钱。由此可推断华而不实的交易标志会干扰消费者的前额叶皮层，可能会让消费者充满恐惧。故选C项。

10．细节理解题。根据最后一段中Plan ahead, resist the urge to purchase in the moment, make notes for comparison shopping, and if the deal is actually good, then it will hold up to inspection and you’ll feel good about your purchases later. 提前计划，抵制一时的冲动，为比较购物做笔记，如果交易真的很好，那么它将经得起检验，你以后会对你买的东西感觉很好。可知，为了避免超支，作者建议我们提前制定计划。故选D项。

【分析】
这是一篇概要写作。
【详解】
写作步骤
1）细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握文章主旨。
2）弄清结构，归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要，不是写某一部分的概要，或者就某些问题写出要点。因此一定要弄清文章结构，归纳文章各段大意。
3）列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构，将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。
4）在写作时要特别注意下面几点：
（1）概要应包括原文中的主要事实，略去不必要的细节。
（2）安排好篇幅的比例，概要应同原文保持协调，即用较多的文字写重要内容，用较少的文字写次要内容。
（3）注意要点之间的衔接，要用适当的关联词语贯通全文，切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子，但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语，以免显得生硬。
（4）不排斥用原文的某些词句，但不要照搬原文的句子，如果不能完全用自己的话语表达，至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换，如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。
（5）计算词数，看是否符合规定的词数要求。
