【知识点】人物故事类;记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。在文中作者讲述了自己一家人和一只松鸡的故事。作者的丈夫Tom在田间干活时看到一只胆大的松鸡,和别的松鸡不同它不惧怕人类,慢慢这只松鸡和作者一家越来越熟悉,甚至还会飞到Tom身上。后来这只松鸡和人们相处的越来越和谐,不但作者一家非常喜欢它,而且连猎人都和松鸡一起拍照留念。
(1)考查副词。A. interesting“有趣的”;B. reasonable“合理的”;C. impossible“不可能的”;D . unusual“不寻常的”。根据上文“I was still amazed”和下文“they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching.”可知松鸡和人密切接触的情况是不常见的,答案选D。
(2)考查连词。A. though “尽管”;B. because“因为”;C. unless“除非”;D. until“直到”。根据上文“they're hard to spot”人们很难看到松鸡,后句内容说它们见到人类的接近就会飞走,由此可知人们很难见到松鸡的原因是它们惧怕人类,后句和前句是因果关系,故答案选B。
(3)考查名词。A. spring“春天”;B. summer“夏天”;C. autumn“秋天”;D. winter“冬天”。根据下文“As spring went and summer came”可知当Tom看到这只松鸡的时候是春天,故答案选A。
(4)考查动词。A. got“得到”;B. kept“保持”;C. noticed“发现,注意到”;D. imagine“想象”。此处讲述的是Tom第一次看到这只松鸡时候的情景,空后提到这只松鸡正在地边走动,所以是Tom看到,注意到,选C。
(5)考查副词。A. naturally “自然地”;B. certainly “当然地”;C. normally“正常地”;D. surprisingly“令人惊讶地”。从上文内容可知松鸡是怕人的,见到人就飞走,而这只松鸡不怕人,所以是让人惊讶的情况,选D。
(6)考查形容词。A. crazy“疯狂的,着迷的”;B .curious“好奇的”;C. concerned“关心的”;D. cautious“小心的”。从空前内容可知松鸡不怕人,由此推断应该是好奇Tom在做什么,其他不符合语境,选B。
(7)考查形容词。A shy “害羞的”;B awkward“尴尬的”;C friendly “友好的”;D elegant“优雅的”。从后句内容可知这只松鸡不怕Tom,而且在他身边越来越自在,此外在文章倒数第二段也提到friendly grouse,由此可知这只松鸡是友好的,选C。
(8)考查形容词。A careful“小心的”;B tired“厌倦的”;Cfond“喜欢的”;D sick“恶心,生病的”。从空后内容可知作者和丈夫给松鸡取了名字,由此判断他们对这只松鸡越来越喜欢,be fond of 意思是“喜欢”,选C。
(9)考查动词。A supposed“认为,猜想”;B realized“意识到”;C hoped“希望”;D pretended“假装”。前面提到Tom看到松鸡走近他身边,后面又说没看到她,由此判断他是假装没看见,想看看松鸡会如何反应。选D。
(10)考查动词。A ignored“忽略,不理睬”;B observed“观察,遵守,庆祝”;C amazed“感到惊讶”;D disturbed“打扰”。上文提到Tom故意装作没看到这只松鸡,空后又描述松鸡去啄Tom的手,由此判断松鸡是想引起Tom的注意,不想被忽视,选A。
(11)考查动词。A put“放”;B backed“后退”;C place“安置,放”;Dtake“带走”。从描述的情景可以推测松鸡啄了Tom之后就退后看他的反应,选B。
(12)考查名词。A game“游戏”;B work“工作”;C place“地方”;D man“人”。根据上文的叙述可知在Tom不理睬松鸡的情况下,松鸡反反复复地去啄Tom,然后看他的反应,这对它来说是一种游戏,选A。
(13)考查动词短语。A give up“ 放弃”;B come out“出来”;C turn over“翻转”;D fly by“飞过”。根据下文内容可知夏天到了松鸡更加频繁地外出走动了,选B。
(14)考查副词。A Eventually “最终”;B Suddenly“突然”;C Constantly“不断地”;D Presently“目前地”。从上文内容可知松鸡一点一点地接近人类,胆子越来越大,最后都飞到Tom身上,由此判断答案选A。
(15)考查名词。A chance“机会”;B dream“梦想”;C picture“图片,照片”;D sense“感觉”。根据作者描述的情景可知松鸡呆在Tom的腿上,所以是作者趁机拍了张照片,而且下文hunters would stop and take pictures也是很好的提示,选C。
(16)考查形容词。A comfortable“舒服的”;B guilty“内疚的”;C anxious “焦虑的”;D familiar “熟悉的”。本文讲述的内容是松鸡和人的友好相处,而且上文多次提到松鸡在人们身边很comfortable,比如and she got more comfortable around him和.Mildred felt comfortable enough to jump up on Tom's leg,所以答案选A。
(17)考查名词。A lantern“灯笼”;B sign “招牌”;C gun “枪支”;D loudspeaker“扬声器”。根据情理可知要想提醒人们应该是树立起一个警示牌,而且空前动词put也只能和sign构成搭配,故答案选B。
(18)考查名词。A drivers“司机”;B farmers“农民”;C hunters“猎人”;D tourists“游客”。从情理可知四个选项中会猎杀动物的只有猎人,而且通过下文猎人与松鸡拍照也可以判断作者是提醒猎人们不要猎杀他们的松鸡,选C。
(19)考查副词。A just “仅仅”;B yet “然而”;D thus“ 因此”;D also“也”。前面内容提到作者竖起牌子警示人们不要猎杀这只友好的松鸡,而父亲同时也警告人们别猎杀那只松鸡,由此可知答案选D。
(20)考点固定短语。A In fact “事实上”;B For long“很长时间”;C On the contrary“相反”;D By the way “顺便说”。上文提到作者和家人都提醒人们不要去伤害这只松鸡,而猎人们不仅没有猎杀松鸡,甚至还和松鸡一起拍照,故A选项内容符合语境。
【点评】本题考点涉及副词,连词,名词、动词、形容词、固定短语等多个知识点的考查,综合性强,要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析推理,从而选出正确答案。

13.(2014·四川)阅读理解
In 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.
We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.
Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little Are going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when 1 made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me
Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me. 1 hadn't turned 5 yet.
As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school
As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped (包裹) heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.
In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d'Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.
(1)What can be inferred about the author's family
A.His father was a cruel man. B.His parents didn't love him.

【知识点】主旨大意;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,作者回忆了自己童年时候发生的一件件的事情,基本都是作者惹得乱子。那时父亲在铁路部门工作,母亲则是父亲手下的一名职员,他们工作忙碌而无瑕顾及作者以至于他有一次点燃了一桶油漆,差点引起火灾,闯下大祸。此外,在文中作者还提到了自己第一次做雪橇的美好回忆。
(1)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的”Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off,“和第三段中的”Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess.“ 可知在铁路部门工作的父母忙于工作无瑕顾及作者,由此判断作者的父母非常忙碌,选C。
(2)考查细节理解。在第三段和第四段作者讲述了自己小时候玩火差点酿成火灾的事情,然后在第四段中的”I hadn't turned 5 yet."当时我还不到5岁,由此可知当作者四岁的时候他的淘气险些酿成火灾,正确答案为D。
(3)考查细节理解。根据最后一段可知作者后来搬家了,故 B选项内容错误,而C选项中作者提到Leonhard1950年以后还经常去他家,内容与文章末段提示的信息矛盾,故排除。根据第四段中的“As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder”和“but I do remember the ride well.”可知Leonhard Seppala以驾雪橇的高超技术而著名,而且作者第一次的乘坐雪橇也是非常愉快的,故D选项错误,答案选A。
(4)考查主旨大意。本文开头提出自己在四岁的时候,一家人搬到了阿拉斯加,在那里他的冒险生活就开始了,然后在下文中作者回忆了在那里发生的的事情,由此可知本文主要讲述了作者小时候的事情,是作者对童年的回忆,选A。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解、推理判断和主旨大意三个题型的考查,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析、推理、概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。
14.(2014·四川)阅读理解
A schoolgirl saved her father's life by kicking him in the chest after he suffered a serious allergic (过敏的) reaction which stopped his heart.
Izzy, nine, restarted father Colm's heart by stamping (踩) on his chest after he fell down at home and stopped breathing.
Izzy's mother, Debbie, immediately called 999 but Izzy knew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.
However, she quickly discovered her arms weren't strong enough, so she stamped on her father's chest instead.
Debbie then took over with some more conventional chest compressions (按压) until the ambulance arrived.
Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said: "I just kicked him really hard. My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn't strong enough to use hands. I was quite scared. The doctor said I might as well be a doctor or a nurse. My mum said that Dad was going to hospital with a big footprint on his
"She's a little star," said Debbie, "i was really upset but Izzy just took over. I just can't believe what she did. I really think all children should be taught first aid. Izzy did CPR then the doctor turned up. Colm had to have more treatment on the way to the hospital and we've got to see an expert."
Truck driver Colm, 35, suffered a mystery allergic reaction on Saturday and was taken to hospital, but was sent home only for it to happen again the next day.

(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"Izzy, nine , restarted father Colm's heart by stamping on his chest 可知Izzy自知自己力气小,用手很难达到急救的目的,她用脚踩父亲胸口的目的就是为了让他的心脏恢复跳动,故答案选D。

15.(2014·四川)阅读理解
With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9:00 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pajama's(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.
All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the “night owl” schedule of sleep.
This is opposed to the “early bird” schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as “night owls” and only 10 percent can be classified as “early birds” —— the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls, this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.
(1)What does the author stress in Paragraph 1
A.Many students are absent from class.

【知识点】主旨大意;词义猜测题;细节理解题;说明文;社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,作者通过介绍一堂课中学生迟到和准时到的情况,提出了学生不擅长调整自己的生物钟而去适应白天的学业安排。然后在文中分析了目前青少年睡眠存在的问题,提出了两种不同的睡眠模式,即“early bird”(早起型) 和“night owl”(夜猫子型),并主要介绍了晚上不困,白天困的“night owl”现象。
(1)考查段落大意。第一段作者首先通过数字说明许多学生早晨不能准时起床的一种情况,然后用”Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.“来解释这种现象的原因,提出文章中心,然后围绕此中心展开行文,故答案选C。
(2)考查细节理解。根据第二段中的”Typically , the preferred sleep / wake cycle is delayed in adolescents …“可知学生们对他们自己的睡眠模式不熟悉,没有能够恰当地去调整适应自己的生物钟,因而造成了睡眠问题,故答案选D。
(3)考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的”This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the "night owl" schedule of“和第四段中的”This is opposed to the "early bird" schedule,“可知睡眠模式有两种,即"night owl"和"early bird",而此处把20%归到night owls类,由此判断该词意思为“分类”,选B。
(4)考查主旨大意。开头介绍一堂课中学生的迟到和准时到的情况,提出了学生不擅长调整自己的生物钟而去适应白天的学业安排这一问题。然后在下文对此现象进行分析并介绍造成这种情况的原因,所以答案选B。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解、词义猜测、段落大意和主旨大意四个题型的考查,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析、推理、概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。
16.(2014·四川)阅读理解
Women are friendly.But men are more competitive.Why Researchers have found it's all down to the hormone oxytocin (荷尔蒙催生素).Although known as the love hormone, it affects the sexes differently.
"Women tend to be social in their behavior.They often share with others.But men lend to be competitive.They are trying to improve their social status," said Professor Ryan.
Generally, people believe that the hormone oxytocin is let out in our body in various social situations and our body creates a large amount of it during positive social interactions (互动) such as falling in love or giving birth.
But in a previous experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during negative social interactions such as envy.
Further researches showed that in men the hormone oxytocin improves the ability to recognize competitive relationships, but in women it raises the ability to recognize friendship.
Professor Ryan's recent experiment used 62 men and women aged 20 to 37.Half of the participants(参与者)received oxytocin.The other half received placebo (安慰剂).
After a week, the two groups switched with participants.They went through the same procedure with the other material.
Following each treatment, they were shown some video pictures with different social interactions.Then they were asked to analyze the relationships by answering some questions.The questions were about telling friendship from competition.And their answers should be based on gestures, body language and facial expressions.
The results indicated that, after treatment with oxytocin, men's ability to correctly recognize competitive relationships improved, but in women it was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.
Professor Ryan thus concluded: "Our experiment proves that the hormone oxytocin can raise people's abilities to better distinguish different social interactions.And the behavior differences between men and women are caused by biological factors (因素) that are mainly hormonal."
(1)What causes men and women to behave differently according to the text
A.Placebo. B.Oxytocin.
C.The gesture. D.The social status.
(2)What can we learn from Professor Ryan's previous experiment
A.Oxytocin affects our behavior in a different way.
B.Our body lets out oxytocin when we are deep in love.
C.Our body produces oxytocin when we feel unhappy about others' success.
D.Oxytocin improves our abilities to understand people's behavior differences.
(3)Why did Professor Ryan conduct the recent experiment
A.To test the effect of oxytocin on the ability to recognize social interactions.
B.To know the differences between friendship and competition.
C.To know people's different abilities to answer questions.
D.To test people's understanding of body language.
(4)The author develops the text by______.
A.explaining people's behaviors B.describing his own experiences
C.distinguishing sexual differences D.discussing research experiments
【答案】(1)B
(2)C
(3)A
(4)D
【知识点】推理判断题;细节理解题;科普环保类;说明文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,科学家通过实验证明,阐述了激素对于男性和女性在社交上的不同影响。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的” Researchers have found it's all down to the hormone oxytocin “研究者已经发现,这取决于荷尔蒙催生素。故选B。
(2)考查细节理解。根据第四段中的”But in a previous experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during negative social interactions such as envy.“但是在教授Ryan之前的试验中,在负面的社交活动,例如嫉妒的时候,荷尔蒙也会上升。故选C。
(3)考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的”The results indicated that, after treatment with oxytocin, men's ability to correctly recognize competitive relationships improved, but in women it was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.“结果表明,在催生素治疗之后,男性正确认识竞争性关系的能力提高了,但是,对于女人来说,正确识别友谊的能力提高了。可以推断这个实验目的在于测试催生素对于人识别社交活动的能力的影响。故选A。
(4)考查推理判断。本文中举出了多个实验以及实验结构,表明作者是通过讨论研究实验结果来展开全文的,故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析、推理,从而选出正确答案。

I sent the e-mail and waited. And then the replies started coming in and I was very, very surprised. There were so many memories, and they were all so lovely. They came from the '50s, '60s, '70s, from every decade(十年) between now and the day my dad was born. They came from my mother, my siblings, my grandma, my dad's friends from high school, his sister, my dad's first boss, a colleague at his first job, from people who hadn't seen my dad in 40 years, from people I myself hadn't even informed. They typed them and handwrote them. They mailed them and e-mailed them.
The night before Dad's birthday, my sister and 1 stayed up late, putting everything together with some
The next morning, after breakfast and presents and cake, we gave the pile of envelopes to him. "Just one more thing for you," we said.
It took him a long time to open them and read. Each one was a brief ticket to another time, a leap (跳跃) backward over years and decades. There was a lot of laughter and a few tears, too.

Hello, boys and girls! Today, I am going to talk with what you should do when a fire alarm go off. If you hear the alarm, stand in line at the door and wait your teacher to lead you outside. Stay close to your teacher and classmate. Don't panic or get out of line, and trying to remain quiet and calmly. Soon the firefighters will come and put out a fire. If it's a false alarm and there is no fire, your teacher will lead us back to the classroom. If you notice that when someone is missing and hurt, tell your teacher immediately.
【答案】①with 改为about; ②go改为goes; ③wait 后加 for ; ④classmate改为classmates; ⑤trying改为try ; ⑥calmly改为calm; ⑦a改为the; ⑧us改为you; ⑨去掉when; ⑩and改为or。
【知识点】短文改错
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇演讲稿,介绍了面对火灾如何应对。
①考查介词。talk to/with sb about sb/sth固定短语,“和某人谈论某事”,故将with 改为about。
②考查主谓一致。该句主语为a fire alarm ,谓语为一般现在时,所以谓语改为goes,故将go改为goes。
② 考查固定短语。wait for 固定短语”等待“。wait为vi.,加宾语时要加prep. for,故wait 后加 for。
④考查名词。classmate为可数名词,此处又为复数意义,所以改为classmates,故classmate改为classmates。
③ 考查动词。 此处为and连接的并列谓语故把trying改为try。
⑥考查形容词。 因为remain作“仍然是…,保持…不变”时为系动词,所以其后接形容词。故将calmly改为calm。
⑦考查冠词。该处的火灾,已在上文中被提到了,故此处为特指,所以用定冠词the,故将a改为the。
⑧考查动词。 根据上下文的逻辑关系。整篇文章都是以“我”的口吻,告诉“你”该怎么做,所以要把此处的us改为you。
⑨考查连词。文中if引导的状语从句中,谓语notice后的宾语从句 someone is missing and hurt句意完整、结构完整,所以只需要连接词that
⑩考查连词。此处missing和hurt为选择关系,所以把and改为or,翻译成“或是”,故将and改为or。
【点评】本题考点涉及介词,在主谓一致,名词,动词,形容词。冠词,连词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。

In 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.
We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.
Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little Are going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when 1 made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me
Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me. 1 hadn't turned 5 yet.
As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school
As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday.

A schoolgirl saved her father's life by kicking him in the chest after he suffered a serious allergic (过敏的) reaction which stopped his heart.
Izzy, nine, restarted father Colm's heart by stamping (踩) on his chest after he fell down at home and stopped breathing.
Izzy's mother, Debbie, immediately called 999 but Izzy knew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.

Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said: "I just kicked him really hard. My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn't strong enough to use hands. I was quite scared. The doctor said I might as well be a doctor or a nurse. My mum said that Dad was going to hospital with a big footprint on his

Truck driver Colm, 35, suffered a mystery allergic reaction on Saturday and was taken to hospital, but was sent home only for it to happen again the next day.

With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9:00 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pajama's(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.
All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the “night owl” schedule of sleep.
This is opposed to the “early bird” schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as “night owls” and only 10 percent can be classified as “early birds” —— the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls, this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.
(1)What does the author stress in Paragraph 1
A.Many students are absent from class.
B.Students are very tired on Monday mornings.
C.Students do not adjust their sleep patterns well.
D.Students are not well prepared for class on Mondays.
(2)Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2
A.Most students prefer to get up late in the morning.
B.Students don't sleep well because of alerting systems.
C.One's body clock governs the sleep/wake cycle independently.
D.Adolescents' delayed sleep/wake cycle isn't the preferred pattern.
(3)Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “classified”
A.Criticized B.Grouped C.Organized D.Named
(4)What does the text mainly talk about
A.Functions of the body clock.
B.The “night owl” phenomenon.
C.Human beings' sleep behaviour.
D.The school schedule of “early birds”.

Women are friendly.But men are more competitive.Why Researchers have found it's all down to the hormone oxytocin (荷尔蒙催生素).Although known as the love hormone, it affects the sexes differently.
"Women tend to be social in their behavior.They often share with others.But men lend to be competitive.They are trying to improve their social status," said Professor Ryan.
Generally, people believe that the hormone oxytocin is let out in our body in various social situations and our body creates a large amount of it during positive social interactions (互动) such as falling in love or giving birth.
But in a previous experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during negative social interactions such as envy.
Further researches showed that in men the hormone oxytocin improves the ability to recognize competitive relationships, but in women it raises the ability to recognize friendship.
Professor Ryan's recent experiment used 62 men and women aged 20 to 37.Half of the participants(参与者)received oxytocin.The other half received placebo (安慰剂).
After a week, the two groups switched with participants.They went through the same procedure with the other material.
Following each treatment, they were shown some video pictures with different social interactions.Then they were asked to analyze the relationships by answering some questions.The questions were about telling friendship from competition.And their answers should be based on gestures, body language and facial expressions.
The results indicated that, after treatment with oxytocin, men's ability to correctly recognize competitive relationships improved, but in women it was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.
Professor Ryan thus concluded: "Our experiment proves that the hormone oxytocin can raise people's abilities to better distinguish different social interactions.And the behavior differences between men and women are caused by biological factors (因素) that are mainly hormonal."
(1)What causes men and women to behave differently according to the text
A.Placebo. B.Oxytocin.
C.The gesture. D.The social status.
(2)What can we learn from Professor Ryan's previous experiment
A.Oxytocin affects our behavior in a different way.
B.Our body lets out oxytocin when we are deep in love.
C.Our body produces oxytocin when we feel unhappy about others' success.
D.Oxytocin improves our abilities to understand people's behavior differences.
(3)Why did Professor Ryan conduct the recent experiment
A.To test the effect of oxytocin on the ability to recognize social interactions.
B.To know the differences between friendship and competition.
C.To know people's different abilities to answer questions.
D.To test people's understanding of body language.
(4)The author develops the text by______.
A.explaining people's behaviors B.describing his own experiences
C.distinguishing sexual differences D.discussing research experiments

When my father was celebrating a milestone (里程碑) birthday, I pulled together a surprise gift that he would never forget.
As he was approaching 60,1 had a firm idea: What if I could get the memories people had of him, put each one into an envelope - 60 in total - and have him open them, one by one, on his birthday So I wrote an e-mail to family and friends, explaining my idea.
I sent the e-mail and waited. And then the replies started coming in and I was very, very surprised. There were so many memories, and they were all so lovely. They came from the '50s, '60s, '70s, from every decade(十年) between now and the day my dad was born. They came from my mother, my siblings, my grandma, my dad's friends from high school, his sister, my dad's first boss, a colleague at his first job, from people who hadn't seen my dad in 40 years, from people I myself hadn't even informed. They typed them and handwrote them. They mailed them and e-mailed them.
The night before Dad's birthday, my sister and 1 stayed up late, putting everything together with some
The next morning, after breakfast and presents and cake, we gave the pile of envelopes to him. "Just one more thing for you," we said.
It took him a long time to open them and read. Each one was a brief ticket to another time, a leap (跳跃) backward over years and decades. There was a lot of laughter and a few tears, too.
I was kind of sad when the project was over because it was great fun to collect these memories. It gave me a different picture of my dad.

【知识点】人物故事类;记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。在文中作者讲述了自己一家人和一只松鸡的故事。作者的丈夫Tom在田间干活时看到一只胆大的松鸡,和别的松鸡不同它不惧怕人类,慢慢这只松鸡和作者一家越来越熟悉,甚至还会飞到Tom身上。后来这只松鸡和人们相处的越来越和谐,不但作者一家非常喜欢它,而且连猎人都和松鸡一起拍照留念。
(1)考查副词。A. interesting“有趣的”;B. reasonable“合理的”;C. impossible“不可能的”;D . unusual“不寻常的”。根据上文“I was still amazed”和下文“they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching.”可知松鸡和人密切接触的情况是不常见的,答案选D。
(2)考查连词。A. though “尽管”;B. because“因为”;C. unless“除非”;D. until“直到”。根据上文“they're hard to spot”人们很难看到松鸡,后句内容说它们见到人类的接近就会飞走,由此可知人们很难见到松鸡的原因是它们惧怕人类,后句和前句是因果关系,故答案选B。
(3)考查名词。A. spring“春天”;B. summer“夏天”;C. autumn“秋天”;D. winter“冬天”。根据下文“As spring went and summer came”可知当Tom看到这只松鸡的时候是春天,故答案选A。
(4)考查动词。A. got“得到”;B. kept“保持”;C. noticed“发现,注意到”;D. imagine“想象”。此处讲述的是Tom第一次看到这只松鸡时候的情景,空后提到这只松鸡正在地边走动,所以是Tom看到,注意到,选C。
(5)考查副词。A. naturally “自然地”;B. certainly “当然地”;C. normally“正常地”;D. surprisingly“令人惊讶地”。从上文内容可知松鸡是怕人的,见到人就飞走,而这只松鸡不怕人,所以是让人惊讶的情况,选D。
(6)考查形容词。A. crazy“疯狂的,着迷的”;B .curious“好奇的”;C. concerned“关心的”;D. cautious“小心的”。从空前内容可知松鸡不怕人,由此推断应该是好奇Tom在做什么,其他不符合语境,选B。
(7)考查形容词。A shy “害羞的”;B awkward“尴尬的”;C friendly “友好的”;D elegant“优雅的”。从后句内容可知这只松鸡不怕Tom,而且在他身边越来越自在,此外在文章倒数第二段也提到friendly grouse,由此可知这只松鸡是友好的,选C。
(8)考查形容词。A careful“小心的”;B tired“厌倦的”;Cfond“喜欢的”;D sick“恶心,生病的”。从空后内容可知作者和丈夫给松鸡取了名字,由此判断他们对这只松鸡越来越喜欢,be fond of 意思是“喜欢”,选C。
(9)考查动词。A supposed“认为,猜想”;B realized“意识到”;C hoped“希望”;D pretended“假装”。前面提到Tom看到松鸡走近他身边,后面又说没看到她,由此判断他是假装没看见,想看看松鸡会如何反应。选D。
(10)考查动词。A ignored“忽略,不理睬”;B observed“观察,遵守,庆祝”;C amazed“感到惊讶”;D disturbed“打扰”。上文提到Tom故意装作没看到这只松鸡,空后又描述松鸡去啄Tom的手,由此判断松鸡是想引起Tom的注意,不想被忽视,选A。
(11)考查动词。A put“放”;B backed“后退”;C place“安置,放”;Dtake“带走”。从描述的情景可以推测松鸡啄了Tom之后就退后看他的反应,选B。
(12)考查名词。A game“游戏”;B work“工作”;C place“地方”;D man“人”。根据上文的叙述可知在Tom不理睬松鸡的情况下,松鸡反反复复地去啄Tom,然后看他的反应,这对它来说是一种游戏,选A。
(13)考查动词短语。A give up“ 放弃”;B come out“出来”;C turn over“翻转”;D fly by“飞过”。根据下文内容可知夏天到了松鸡更加频繁地外出走动了,选B。

(15)考查名词。A chance“机会”;B dream“梦想”;C picture“图片,照片”;D sense“感觉”。根据作者描述的情景可知松鸡呆在Tom的腿上,所以是作者趁机拍了张照片,而且下文hunters would stop and take pictures也是很好的提示,选C。
(16)考查形容词。A comfortable“舒服的”;B guilty“内疚的”;C anxious “焦虑的”;D familiar “熟悉的”。本文讲述的内容是松鸡和人的友好相处,而且上文多次提到松鸡在人们身边很comfortable,比如and she got more comfortable around him和.Mildred felt comfortable enough to jump up on Tom's leg,所以答案选A。
(17)考查名词。A lantern“灯笼”;B sign “招牌”;C gun “枪支”;D loudspeaker“扬声器”。根据情理可知要想提醒人们应该是树立起一个警示牌,而且空前动词put也只能和sign构成搭配,故答案选B。
(18)考查名词。A drivers“司机”;B farmers“农民”;C hunters“猎人”;D tourists“游客”。从情理可知四个选项中会猎杀动物的只有猎人,而且通过下文猎人与松鸡拍照也可以判断作者是提醒猎人们不要猎杀他们的松鸡,选C。
(19)考查副词。A just “仅仅”;B yet “然而”;D thus“ 因此”;D also“也”。前面内容提到作者竖起牌子警示人们不要猎杀这只友好的松鸡,而父亲同时也警告人们别猎杀那只松鸡,由此可知答案选D。
(20)考点固定短语。A In fact “事实上”;B For long“很长时间”;C On the contrary“相反”;D By the way “顺便说”。上文提到作者和家人都提醒人们不要去伤害这只松鸡,而猎人们不仅没有猎杀松鸡,甚至还和松鸡一起拍照,故A选项内容符合语境。

(1)考查段落大意。第一段作者首先通过数字说明许多学生早晨不能准时起床的一种情况,然后用”Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.“来解释这种现象的原因,提出文章中心,然后围绕此中心展开行文,故答案选C。
(2)考查细节理解。根据第二段中的”Typically , the preferred sleep / wake cycle is delayed in adolescents …“可知学生们对他们自己的睡眠模式不熟悉,没有能够恰当地去调整适应自己的生物钟,因而造成了睡眠问题,故答案选D。
(3)考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的”This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the "night owl" schedule of“和第四段中的”This is opposed to the "early bird" schedule,“可知睡眠模式有两种,即"night owl"和"early bird",而此处把20%归到night owls类,由此判断该词意思为“分类”,选B。

【知识点】短文改错
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇演讲稿,介绍了面对火灾如何应对。
①考查介词。talk to/with sb about sb/sth固定短语,“和某人谈论某事”,故将with 改为about。
②考查主谓一致。该句主语为a fire alarm ,谓语为一般现在时,所以谓语改为goes,故将go改为goes。
② 考查固定短语。wait for 固定短语”等待“。wait为vi.,加宾语时要加prep. for,故wait 后加 for。
④考查名词。classmate为可数名词,此处又为复数意义,所以改为classmates,故classmate改为classmates。
③ 考查动词。 此处为and连接的并列谓语故把trying改为try。
⑥考查形容词。 因为remain作“仍然是…,保持…不变”时为系动词,所以其后接形容词。故将calmly改为calm。
⑦考查冠词。该处的火灾,已在上文中被提到了,故此处为特指,所以用定冠词the,故将a改为the。
⑧考查动词。 根据上下文的逻辑关系。整篇文章都是以“我”的口吻,告诉“你”该怎么做,所以要把此处的us改为you。
⑨考查连词。文中if引导的状语从句中,谓语notice后的宾语从句 someone is missing and hurt句意完整、结构完整,所以只需要连接词that
⑩考查连词。此处missing和hurt为选择关系,所以把and改为or,翻译成“或是”,故将and改为or。
【点评】本题考点涉及介词,在主谓一致,名词,动词,形容词。冠词,连词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。
