三、阅读理解
22．（2013·浙江）阅读理解
No one knows for sure when advertising first started. It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them. That led to the concept of specialization, which means that people would specialize, or focus, on doing one specific job.
Let's take a man we'll call Mr. Fielder, for example. He did everything connected with farming. He planted seeds, tended the fields, and harvested and sold his crops. At the same time, he did many other jobs on the farm. However, he didn't make the bricks for his house, grind the wheat for his flour, or cut his trees into boards. He also did not make the plows(犁), the work boots, or any of the other hundreds of things a farm needs. Instead, he got them from people who specialized in doing each of those things.
Suppose there was another man we shall call Mr. Plowright. Using what he knew about farming and working with iron, Mr. Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier. Mr. Plowright did not really like farming himself and wanted to specialize in making really good plows. Perhaps, he thought, other farmers will trade what they grow for one of my plows.
How did Mr. Plowright let people know what he was doing Why, he advertised, of course. First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers. That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and a simple arrow pointing to the shop door. It was probably all the information people needed to find Mr. Plowright and his really good plows.
Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used about five thousand years ago. Even before most people could read, they understood such signs. Shopkeepers would carve into stone, clay, or wood symbols for the products they had for sale.
A medium, in advertising talk, is the way you communicate your message. You might say that the first medium used in advertising was signs with symbols. The second medium was audio, or sound, although that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today. Originally, just the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument, such as a bell, were used to get people's attention.
A crier, in the historical sense, is not someone who weeps easily. It is someone, probably a man, with a voice loud enough to be heard over the other noises of a city. In ancient Egypt, shopkeepers might hire such a person to spread the news about their products. Often this primitive form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with goods. Perhaps the crier described the goods, explained where they came from, and praised their quality. His job was, in other words, not too different from a TV or radio commercial in today's world.
（1）What probably led to the start of advertisement
A．The discovery of iron.
B．The specialization of labor.
C．The appearance of new jobs.
D．The development of farming techniques.
（2）To advertise his plows, Mr. Plowright__________.
A．praised his plows in public
B．placed a sign outside the shop
C．hung an arrow pointing to the shop
D．showed his products to the customers
（3）The writer makes up the two stories of Mr. Fielder and Mr. Plowright in order to___________.
A．explain the origin of advertising B．predict the future of advertising
C．expose problems in advertising D．provide suggestions for advertising
（4）In ancient Egypt, a crier was probably someone who_______________.
A．owned a ship
B．had the loudest voice
C．ran a shop selling goods to farmers
D．functioned like today's TV or radio commercial
（5）The last two paragraphs are mainly about_____________.
A．the history of advertising B．the benefits of advertising
C．the early forms of advertising D．the basic design of advertising
23．（2013·浙江）阅读理解
Below is a selection from a popular science book.
If blood is red, why are veins（静脉） blue
Actually, veins are not blue at all. They are more of a clear, yellowish color. Although blood looks red when it's outside the body, when it's sitting in the vein near the surface of the skin, it's more of a dark reddish purple color. At the right depth, these blood-filled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin, making them look blue by comparison.
Which works harder, you heart or your brain
That kind of depends on whether you're busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise, and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But in the long run, your brain probably tips it, because even when you're sitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart, and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it.
Why do teeth fall out, and why don't they grow back in grown-ups
Baby (or “milk”) teeth do not last long; they fall out to make bigger room for bigger, stronger adult teeth later on. Adult teeth fall our when they become damaged, decayed and infected by bacteria. Once this second set of teeth has grown in, you're done. When they're gone, they are gone. This is because nature figures you're set for life, and what controls regrowth of your teeth switches off.
Do old people shrink as they age
Yes and no. Many people do get shorter as they age. But, when they do, it isn't because they're shrinking all over. They lose height as their spine（脊柱） becomes shorter and more curved due to disuse and the effect of gravity(重力). Many (but not all) men and women do lose height as they get older. Men lose and average of 3-4 cm in height as they age, while women may lose 5 cm or more. If you live to be 200 years old, would you keep shrinking till you were, like 60 cm tall, like a little boy again No, because old people don't really shrink! It is not that they are growing backwards —- their legs, arms and backbones getting shorter. When they do get shorter, it's because the spine has shortened a little. Or, more often, become more bent and curved.
Why does spinning make you dizzy（眩晕的）
Because your brain gets confused between what you're seeing and what you're feeling. The brain senses that you're spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear, which work together with your eyes to keep your vision balance stable. But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control, and your brain thinks you'removing while you're not.
Where do feelings and emotions come from
Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain area —- from mice to dogs, cats, and humans. So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear, pain and pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other, newer bits of the brain, we feel more complex emotions than any other animal on this planet.
If exercise wears you out, how can it be good for you
Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them. And as far as your body is concerned, it's “use it, or lose it”! It's not that exercise makes you healthy, it's more that a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease
（1）What is the color of blood in a vein near the surface of the skin
A．Blue B．Light yellow
C．Red D．Dark reddish purple
（2）Why do some old people look a little shrunken as they age
A．Because their spine is in active use.
B．Because they are more easily affected by gravity.
C．Because they keep growing backwards.
D．Because their spine becomes more bent.
（3）Which of the following statements about our brain is true
A．In the long run, our brain probably works harder than our heart.
B．When our brain senses the spinning, we will feel dizzy.
C．The brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.
D．Our feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.
（4）What is the main purpose of the selection
A．To give advice on how to stay healthy.
B．To provide information about our body.
C．To challenge new findings in medical research.
D．To report the latest discoveries in medical science.

The baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby. Almost from the moment it is born, the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother. During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large, warm, and soft object in its environment, particularly if that object also gives it milk. After a week or so, however, the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother” — the real mother or the mother-substitute(母亲替代物）.
During the first two weeks of its warmth is perhaps the most important psychological（心理的） thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby. The Harlows, a couple who are both psychologists, discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutes — one covered with cloth and one made of bare wire. If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature, the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother. However, if the wire model was heated, while the cloth model was cool, for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their favorites. Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother
Why is cloth preferable to bare wire Something that the Harlows called contact（接触的） comfort seems to be the answer, and a most powerful influence it is. Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers' skins, putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can. Whenever the young animal is frightened, disturbed, or annoyed, it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body. Wire doesn't“rub”as well as does soft wire cloth. Prolonged（长时间的）“contact comfort” with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.
According to the Harlows, the basic quality of a baby's love for its mother is trust. If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother, the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be. It screams in terror and curls up into a fury little ball. If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom, the bay rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life. After a few minutes of contact comfort, it obviously begins to feel more secure. It then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys, but often rushes back for a deep embrace（拥抱）as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well. Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding on to its “mother.”
（1）Psychologically, what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life
A．Warmth B．Milk C．Contact D．Trust
（2）After the first two weeks of their life, baby moneys prefer the cloth mother to the wire mother because the former is __.
A．larger in size
B．closer to them
C．less frightening and less disturbing
D．more comfortable to rub against
（3）What does the baby monkey probably gain from prolonged “contact comfort”
A．Attention B．Softness C．Confidence D．Interest
（4）It can be inferred that when the baby monkey feels secure,_____________.
A．it frequently rushes back for a deep embrace when exploring the toys
B．it spends more time screaming to get rewards
C．it is less attracted to the toys though they are interesting
D．it cares less about whether its mother is still around
（5）The main purpose of the passage is to______________.
A．give the reasons of the experiment
B．present the findings of the experiment
C．introduce the method of the experiment
D．describe the process of the experiment
25．（2013·浙江）阅读理解
In 1974, after filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer, I took what I could get —- a teaching job at what I considered a distant wild area: western New Jersey. My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen —— teaching English.
School started, but I felt more and more as if I were in a foreign country. Was this rural area really New Jersey My students took a week off when hunting season began. I was told they were also frequently absent in late October to help their fathers make hay on the farms. I was a young woman from New York City, who thought that “Make hay while the sun shines” just meant to have a good time.
But, still, I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth-grade class — seventeen boys and five girls who were only six years younger than me. I had a problem long before I knew it. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love of the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.
In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention. It sounds reasonable, but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seems reasonable. By the time my boss, who was also my taskmaster, known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.
My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn't happening, and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the classroom, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes he left, silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes.
I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period I had to face him. I wondered if he would let me finish out the day. I walked to his office, took a deep breath, and opened the door.
He was sitting in his chair, and he looked at me long and hard. I said nothing. All I could think of was that I was not an English teacher; I had been lying to myself, pretending that everything was fine.
When he spoke, he said simply, without accusation, “You had nothing to say to them.”
“You had nothing to say to them”. he repeated.” No wonder they are bored. Why not get to the meat of literature and stop talking about symbolism. Talk with them, not at them. And more important, why do you ignore their bad behavior” We talked. He named my problems and offered solutions. We role-played. He was the bad student, and I was the forceful, yet, warm, teacher.
As the year progressed, we spent many hours discussing literature and ideas about human beings and their motivations. He helped me identify my weaknesses and strengths. In short, he made a teacher of me by teaching me the reality of Emerson's words: “The secret to education lies in respecting the pupil.”
Fifteen years later I still drive that same winding road to the same school. Thanks to the help I received that difficult first year, the school is my home now.
（1）It can be inferred from the story that in 1974 ________________.
A．the writer became an optimistic person
B．the writer was very happy about her new job
C．it was rather difficult to get a job in the USA

Never Put off Tomorrow What You Can Do Today
Want to put off studying for the physics test Or writing that thirty-five-page research paper on future uses of biotechnology Sure you do And who wouldn't But it's still a silly idea to put off doing something until a future time. Here is why ....
　 　. The task will be still the same. It won't be any more fun and you still won't want to do it. As the deadline gets closer and closer, the task seems to become larger and larger if you haven't started the work. And the stress increases. Now not only do you have to write that paper, you have to do it under great pressure.
　 　 . Before you start, it seems that the task is unlikely to be accomplished. But you know what You're probably miscalculating. Get started ——-- maybe on a small piece —— And you will discover that you have more resources and know more about the subject than you thought. Result You won't experience nearly as much suffering as you expected to. Things are guaranteed —— 100 percent ——- to get better.
　 　 . If you leave your work before the night before it's due, you give up the possibility of getting input from your professor. Professors regularly give advice —-- or at least a few useful tips —- during office hours. Unfortunately though, they don't usually hold office hours at midnight, so you will be out of luck when you discover the night before the midterm that you have no idea how to do the questions that will count for two-thirds of your grade.
　 　 Ever wonder why the professor assigns the papers two weeks before it's due It's because he or she expects you to be thinking about the issue, or doing the research, for two weeks. No, not every waking moment, but at least some of the time. After all, the professor could just as easily have given the assignment one week before it was due if he or she expected less thinking. When you throw together a paper or a report at the last minute, your ideas are half-baked. And your professor will know it.
　 　 . If you put things off at the last minute, you might find that you haven't budgeted enough minutes to finish the necessary tasks. It's the easiest thing in the world to miscalculate how long it will take to do all the work especially when new issues arise —— like illness, family problems, computer breakdowns, trouble at work, and all the other things ——- as you are thinking through your paper argument or preparing yourself for the coming test. If you keep delaying, you don't allow yourself time for those various life events that have an adverse(不利的) effect on your ability to complete your assignment.

Dear Diary，
Here I am in the middle of a city，350miles far away from our farmhouse. Do you want to know why we move last week Dad lost his job, and as Mom explained, "He was lucky to find other one ”. His new job meant I had to say goodbye to my classmate, my school or just everything else I love in the world. To make matters bad, now I have to share a room with my younger sister, Maggie. Tomorrow is first day of school. I am awfully tiring, but I know I'll never fall sleep.
Good night and remember, you, dear diary, is my only souvenir from my past life and my only friend.
Yours,
Rosemary

（2）考查动词。 句意：一旦我知道了我即将出发，我能想到的全是这次外国之旅的有趣之处。此处还是延续传达作者对于法国的向往之情，一得知要去法国，便在大脑中想象各种情景，所以答案应为knew。选B。
（3考查形容词。 句意：以及各类新的并且来自世界各地的朋友。interesting对应前句出现的exciting, fun等词,故选D。

（7）考查连词。 句意：我的体验很有趣很让人兴奋，直到我从法国夫妇那里听到了骇人的消息。因为前一句话中出现joyous, exciting，而后句出现的是shocking news可知激动心情的终结，转而变成不好的事情。A合语境。

【知识点】人物故事类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述的是作者参加交换学习项目去法国的一次经历。
（1）考查动词。句意：我在申请信中很详尽地表达了我有多想看看法国，实际上，我的兴奋溢于言表。从后面宾语内容可判断是作者想要"传达对于法国有多么的向往"，是一种情感，只能选择express。选B。
（2）考查动词。 句意：一旦我知道了我即将出发，我能想到的全是这次外国之旅的有趣之处。此处还是延续传达作者对于法国的向往之情，一得知要去法国，便在大脑中想象各种情景，所以答案应为knew。选B。
（3考查形容词。 句意：以及各类新的并且来自世界各地的朋友。interesting对应前句出现的exciting, fun等词,故选D。
（4）考查形容词。句意：虽然旅行很鼓舞人心且看见他人也令人兴奋，但是我在法国的半学期和我预想的完全不一样。And前后并列内容为traveling...inspiring可推断meeting people...exciting，故选C。

（6）考查动词。 句意：我刚到法国就受到了一个很亲和的法国夫妇的欢迎。作者一达到巴黎，就受到了一对nice夫妇的问候，所以选greeted，选C。
（7）考查连词。 句意：我的体验很有趣很让人兴奋，直到我从法国夫妇那里听到了骇人的消息。因为前一句话中出现joyous, exciting，而后句出现的是shocking news可知激动心情的终结，转而变成不好的事情。A合语境。
（8）考查动词。 句意：那天下午，我不得不从他家搬出来到另一家去。A合语境。
（9）考查名词。 句意：我会有一个室友，他们问我是否愿意和一个说英语的人为室友，共享一间屋子。从后文我们可知，作者的"roommate"登场了，选C。
（10）考查动词。句意：为了避免说母语的诱惑，…。动词后出现的是宾语language，当然只能是"speak"，选C。
（11）考查动词。句意：我要求到不要和一个说英语的室友在一起。因为作者不想说母语，所以要求不跟说英语的人住在一起，只有place符合逻辑，选D。
（12）考查动词。 句意：我到了新的房间，向我的新室友做自我介绍。因为是new roommate，自然需要互相"introduce"。选B。
（13）考查名词。 句意：几个小时后我就知道我们在这学期剩下的日子里会成为好朋友。此处根据第一段末最后一句中的term而选A。

（15）考查形容词。句意：他们听到我和巴西室友的故事都很惊讶。前半部提到人们问作者这次旅行中最喜欢的部分，作者却说的是他的室友，并不是首段中作者的设想，此结果不仅让他人surprised，就连作者本人都没有想到。选A。
（16）考查动词。 句意：享受着我们一起探索法国的周末。根据后接宾语France可知是一地方，只能选择B.explore"探索"。
（17）考查情态动词。 句意：人们看起来似乎如此不同，但最终又如此相似。此处是情态动词中关于can的客观性猜测。选D。
（18）考查形容词。句意：人们看起来似乎如此不同，但最终又如此相似。前文出现different, but后显而易见出现相反结果，即反义词"similar“，故选C。

三、阅读理解
22．（2013·浙江）阅读理解
No one knows for sure when advertising first started. It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them. That led to the concept of specialization, which means that people would specialize, or focus, on doing one specific job.
Let's take a man we'll call Mr. Fielder, for example. He did everything connected with farming. He planted seeds, tended the fields, and harvested and sold his crops. At the same time, he did many other jobs on the farm. However, he didn't make the bricks for his house, grind the wheat for his flour, or cut his trees into boards. He also did not make the plows(犁), the work boots, or any of the other hundreds of things a farm needs. Instead, he got them from people who specialized in doing each of those things.
Suppose there was another man we shall call Mr. Plowright. Using what he knew about farming and working with iron, Mr. Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier. Mr. Plowright did not really like farming himself and wanted to specialize in making really good plows. Perhaps, he thought, other farmers will trade what they grow for one of my plows.
How did Mr. Plowright let people know what he was doing Why, he advertised, of course. First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers. That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and a simple arrow pointing to the shop door. It was probably all the information people needed to find Mr. Plowright and his really good plows.
Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used about five thousand years ago. Even before most people could read, they understood such signs. Shopkeepers would carve into stone, clay, or wood symbols for the products they had for sale.
A medium, in advertising talk, is the way you communicate your message. You might say that the first medium used in advertising was signs with symbols. The second medium was audio, or sound, although that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today. Originally, just the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument, such as a bell, were used to get people's attention.
A crier, in the historical sense, is not someone who weeps easily. It is someone, probably a man, with a voice loud enough to be heard over the other noises of a city. In ancient Egypt, shopkeepers might hire such a person to spread the news about their products. Often this primitive form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with goods. Perhaps the crier described the goods, explained where they came from, and praised their quality. His job was, in other words, not too different from a TV or radio commercial in today's world.
（1）What probably led to the start of advertisement
A．The discovery of iron.
B．The specialization of labor.
C．The appearance of new jobs.
D．The development of farming techniques.
（2）To advertise his plows, Mr. Plowright__________.
A．praised his plows in public
B．placed a sign outside the shop
C．hung an arrow pointing to the shop
D．showed his products to the customers
（3）The writer makes up the two stories of Mr. Fielder and Mr. Plowright in order to___________.
A．explain the origin of advertising B．predict the future of advertising
C．expose problems in advertising D．provide suggestions for advertising
（4）In ancient Egypt, a crier was probably someone who_______________.
A．owned a ship
B．had the loudest voice
C．ran a shop selling goods to farmers
D．functioned like today's TV or radio commercial
（5）The last two paragraphs are mainly about_____________.
A．the history of advertising B．the benefits of advertising
C．the early forms of advertising D．the basic design of advertising
【答案】（1）B
（2）B
（3）A
（4）D
（5）C

23．（2013·浙江）阅读理解
Below is a selection from a popular science book.
If blood is red, why are veins（静脉） blue
Actually, veins are not blue at all. They are more of a clear, yellowish color. Although blood looks red when it's outside the body, when it's sitting in the vein near the surface of the skin, it's more of a dark reddish purple color. At the right depth, these blood-filled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin, making them look blue by comparison.
Which works harder, you heart or your brain
That kind of depends on whether you're busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise, and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But in the long run, your brain probably tips it, because even when you're sitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart, and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it.
Why do teeth fall out, and why don't they grow back in grown-ups
Baby (or “milk”) teeth do not last long; they fall out to make bigger room for bigger, stronger adult teeth later on. Adult teeth fall our when they become damaged, decayed and infected by bacteria. Once this second set of teeth has grown in, you're done. When they're gone, they are gone. This is because nature figures you're set for life, and what controls regrowth of your teeth switches off.
Do old people shrink as they age
Yes and no. Many people do get shorter as they age. But, when they do, it isn't because they're shrinking all over. They lose height as their spine（脊柱） becomes shorter and more curved due to disuse and the effect of gravity(重力). Many (but not all) men and women do lose height as they get older. Men lose and average of 3-4 cm in height as they age, while women may lose 5 cm or more. If you live to be 200 years old, would you keep shrinking till you were, like 60 cm tall, like a little boy again No, because old people don't really shrink! It is not that they are growing backwards —- their legs, arms and backbones getting shorter. When they do get shorter, it's because the spine has shortened a little. Or, more often, become more bent and curved.
Why does spinning make you dizzy（眩晕的）
Because your brain gets confused between what you're seeing and what you're feeling. The brain senses that you're spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear, which work together with your eyes to keep your vision balance stable. But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control, and your brain thinks you'removing while you're not.
Where do feelings and emotions come from
Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain area —- from mice to dogs, cats, and humans. So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear, pain and pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other, newer bits of the brain, we feel more complex emotions than any other animal on this planet.
If exercise wears you out, how can it be good for you
Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them. And as far as your body is concerned, it's “use it, or lose it”! It's not that exercise makes you healthy, it's more that a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease
（1）What is the color of blood in a vein near the surface of the skin
A．Blue B．Light yellow
C．Red D．Dark reddish purple
（2）Why do some old people look a little shrunken as they age
A．Because their spine is in active use.
B．Because they are more easily affected by gravity.
C．Because they keep growing backwards.
D．Because their spine becomes more bent.
（3）Which of the following statements about our brain is true
A．In the long run, our brain probably works harder than our heart.
B．When our brain senses the spinning, we will feel dizzy.
C．The brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.
D．Our feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.
（4）What is the main purpose of the selection
A．To give advice on how to stay healthy.
B．To provide information about our body.
C．To challenge new findings in medical research.
D．To report the latest discoveries in medical science.
【答案】（1）D

【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；说明文；医疗保健类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人体的相关知识。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Although blood looks red when it's outside the body, when it's sitting in the vein near the surface of the skin, it's more of a dark reddish purple color.”可知选D。

（4）考查写作意图。本篇的写作意图就是让我们了解我们的身体，为我们提供一些基本的信息，故B项正确。

24．（2013·浙江）阅读理解
The baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby. Almost from the moment it is born, the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother. During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large, warm, and soft object in its environment, particularly if that object also gives it milk. After a week or so, however, the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother” — the real mother or the mother-substitute(母亲替代物）.
During the first two weeks of its warmth is perhaps the most important psychological（心理的） thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby. The Harlows, a couple who are both psychologists, discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutes — one covered with cloth and one made of bare wire. If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature, the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother. However, if the wire model was heated, while the cloth model was cool, for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their favorites. Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother
Why is cloth preferable to bare wire Something that the Harlows called contact（接触的） comfort seems to be the answer, and a most powerful influence it is. Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers' skins, putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can. Whenever the young animal is frightened, disturbed, or annoyed, it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body. Wire doesn't“rub”as well as does soft wire cloth. Prolonged（长时间的）“contact comfort” with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.
According to the Harlows, the basic quality of a baby's love for its mother is trust. If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother, the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be. It screams in terror and curls up into a fury little ball. If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom, the bay rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life. After a few minutes of contact comfort, it obviously begins to feel more secure. It then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys, but often rushes back for a deep embrace（拥抱）as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well. Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding on to its “mother.”
（1）Psychologically, what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life
A．Warmth B．Milk C．Contact D．Trust
（2）After the first two weeks of their life, baby moneys prefer the cloth mother to the wire mother because the former is __.
A．larger in size
B．closer to them
C．less frightening and less disturbing
D．more comfortable to rub against
（3）What does the baby monkey probably gain from prolonged “contact comfort”
A．Attention B．Softness C．Confidence D．Interest
（4）It can be inferred that when the baby monkey feels secure,_____________.
A．it frequently rushes back for a deep embrace when exploring the toys
B．it spends more time screaming to get rewards
C．it is less attracted to the toys though they are interesting
D．it cares less about whether its mother is still around
（5）The main purpose of the passage is to______________.
A．give the reasons of the experiment
B．present the findings of the experiment
C．introduce the method of the experiment
D．describe the process of the experiment
【答案】（1）A

25．（2013·浙江）阅读理解
In 1974, after filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer, I took what I could get —- a teaching job at what I considered a distant wild area: western New Jersey. My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen —— teaching English.
School started, but I felt more and more as if I were in a foreign country. Was this rural area really New Jersey My students took a week off when hunting season began. I was told they were also frequently absent in late October to help their fathers make hay on the farms. I was a young woman from New York City, who thought that “Make hay while the sun shines” just meant to have a good time.
But, still, I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth-grade class — seventeen boys and five girls who were only six years younger than me. I had a problem long before I knew it. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love of the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.
In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention. It sounds reasonable, but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seems reasonable. By the time my boss, who was also my taskmaster, known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.
My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn't happening, and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the classroom, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes he left, silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes.
I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period I had to face him. I wondered if he would let me finish out the day. I walked to his office, took a deep breath, and opened the door.
He was sitting in his chair, and he looked at me long and hard. I said nothing. All I could think of was that I was not an English teacher; I had been lying to myself, pretending that everything was fine.
When he spoke, he said simply, without accusation, “You had nothing to say to them.”
“You had nothing to say to them”. he repeated.” No wonder they are bored. Why not get to the meat of literature and stop talking about symbolism. Talk with them, not at them. And more important, why do you ignore their bad behavior” We talked. He named my problems and offered solutions. We role-played. He was the bad student, and I was the forceful, yet, warm, teacher.
As the year progressed, we spent many hours discussing literature and ideas about human beings and their motivations. He helped me identify my weaknesses and strengths. In short, he made a teacher of me by teaching me the reality of Emerson's words: “The secret to education lies in respecting the pupil.”
Fifteen years later I still drive that same winding road to the same school. Thanks to the help I received that difficult first year, the school is my home now.

【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述的是作者从教第一年的经历。作者工作第一年到偏远山区的一所学校执教的经历，当作者个人的执教理念和现实脱节时得到了上司的指点，对自己以后文学的教学起到了很大的影响。
（1）考查推理判断、根据第一段中的“In 1974, after filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer,”可以推断出当时找工作很难，故选C。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第四段表述可知作者盲目轻信了大学里所学的教育教学理论，故选A。
（3）考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“After twenty minutes he left, silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes”可知她担心会失去工作，故选A。
（4）考查细节理解。根据第六段中的“I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period I had to face him. I wondered if he would let me finish out the day”可知选C。
（5）考查推理判断。根据my boss的话，可知作者并没有真正的了解学生，懂学生，只是盲目的使用学过的教育教学方法，所以应选B。
（6）考查推理判断。根据第九段中的“ He named my problems and offered solutions. We role-played. He was the bad student, and I was the forceful, yet, warm, teacher. ”他没有指责我，而是向我提出了许多建议并交换角色实地体验（他当坏学生我当老师）等内容都体现出负责人的态度是真诚的和支持的。所以选择C。

Never Put off Tomorrow What You Can Do Today
Want to put off studying for the physics test Or writing that thirty-five-page research paper on future uses of biotechnology Sure you do And who wouldn't But it's still a silly idea to put off doing something until a future time. Here is why ....
　 　. The task will be still the same. It won't be any more fun and you still won't want to do it. As the deadline gets closer and closer, the task seems to become larger and larger if you haven't started the work. And the stress increases. Now not only do you have to write that paper, you have to do it under great pressure.
　 　 . Before you start, it seems that the task is unlikely to be accomplished. But you know what You're probably miscalculating. Get started ——-- maybe on a small piece —— And you will discover that you have more resources and know more about the subject than you thought. Result You won't experience nearly as much suffering as you expected to. Things are guaranteed —— 100 percent ——- to get better.
　 　 . If you leave your work before the night before it's due, you give up the possibility of getting input from your professor. Professors regularly give advice —-- or at least a few useful tips —- during office hours. Unfortunately though, they don't usually hold office hours at midnight, so you will be out of luck when you discover the night before the midterm that you have no idea how to do the questions that will count for two-thirds of your grade.
　 　 Ever wonder why the professor assigns the papers two weeks before it's due It's because he or she expects you to be thinking about the issue, or doing the research, for two weeks. No, not every waking moment, but at least some of the time. After all, the professor could just as easily have given the assignment one week before it was due if he or she expected less thinking. When you throw together a paper or a report at the last minute, your ideas are half-baked. And your professor will know it.
　 　 . If you put things off at the last minute, you might find that you haven't budgeted enough minutes to finish the necessary tasks. It's the easiest thing in the world to miscalculate how long it will take to do all the work especially when new issues arise —— like illness, family problems, computer breakdowns, trouble at work, and all the other things ——- as you are thinking through your paper argument or preparing yourself for the coming test. If you keep delaying, you don't allow yourself time for those various life events that have an adverse(不利的) effect on your ability to complete your assignment.

Dear Diary，
Here I am in the middle of a city，350miles far away from our farmhouse. Do you want to know why we move last week Dad lost his job, and as Mom explained, "He was lucky to find other one ”. His new job meant I had to say goodbye to my classmate, my school or just everything else I love in the world. To make matters bad, now I have to share a room with my younger sister, Maggie. Tomorrow is first day of school. I am awfully tiring, but I know I'll never fall sleep.
Good night and remember, you, dear diary, is my only souvenir from my past life and my only friend.
Yours,
Rosemary
【答案】①去掉far ； ②move改为moved ； ③other改为another ； ④classmate改为classmates ； ⑤or改为and ； ⑥bad改为worse ； ⑦first前加the/my ； ⑧tiring改为tired ；⑨sleep改为asleep； ⑩is改为are。
【知识点】短文改错
【解析】【分析】本文是Rosemary写给Diary的一封信件，说明搬家的原因。
①考查副词。去掉far, far不与确切的数字连用。
②考查时态。根据last week，应用一般过去时，故把move改为moved。
③考查代词。另一个应用another，故把other改为another 。
④考查名词单复数。我的同学应该不止一个，故应用复数形式，把classmate改为classmates 。
⑤考查连词。我跟我的同学，我的学校以及我喜爱的一切说再见，我的同学，我的学校以及我喜爱的一切是并列关系，故把or改为and 。
⑥考查形容词。to make matters worse固定短语“让事情变得更糟糕”，前后是递进关系，故用比较级，把bad改为worse 。
⑦考查冠词。序数词不能单独作定语，要与冠词或形容性物主代词搭配使用。故first前加the/my 。
⑧考查形容词。tiring表性质，tired表感受，故把tiring改为tired 。
⑨考查动词短语。fall asleep固定短语，“睡着”，故把sleep改为asleep。
⑩考查主谓一致。因为主语是you，dear diary是you 的同位语，不是主语，故把is改为are。
【点评】本题考点涉及副词、动词时态、代词、名词、连词、形容词、冠词、动词短语以及主谓一致等多个知识点的考查，覆盖面广，综合性强。难度较大，区分度高。

One Thing I'm Proud of
【答案】I still remember how I became a good table tennis player.
The first day I went to high school, I saw some of my classmates playing table tennis. Amazed how skillful they were, I was determined to be just as good. Later on, I watched them carefully to learn their techniques. Then I kept practicing until I became confident enough to challenge the good players. At the end of the term i became one of the best players in my class.
I am really proud of this experience, because it helps me realize that we all can fulfill our potential and achieve our goals through hard work. It also helps me better understand the proverb“Practice makes perfect.”
