二、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）
One day， an old couple around the age of 70， walked into a lawyer's office． They came to file a divorce． This couple had been quarreling all their over 40 years of marriage． They hung on because of their children， afraid to affect their up-bringing． Now， all their children have already grown up． There's nothing else to worry about． All they wanted was to end their unhappy marriage， so both agreed on a divorce．
Lawyer couldn't understand why the old couple would still want a divorce after 40 years of marriage at the age of 70． After they signed the papers， the lawyer suggested a dinner together， since they were still going to be friends．
At the dining table， the first dish was roasted chicken． Immediately， the old man took the drumstick（鸡大腿）for the old lady． "Take this， it's good．" But the wife was unhappy when she answered． "This is always the problem． You always think so highly of yourself． Never think about how I feel． Don't you know that I hate drumsticks？" Little did she know that the husband had been trying all ways to please her-drumsticks were the husband's favorite．
That night， both of them couldn't sleep． After hours， the old man recognized that he still loved her． He picked up the phone． But it never got through． On the other side， she was sad because he still couldn't understand her． Phone's ringing， knowing that it's him， she refused to answer． She thought that all was over and she pulled out the cord．
The next day， she received the news that he had passed away． She rushed down to his apartment， only to see his body lying on the couch still holding on the phone． He had a heart attack when he was still trying to get through her phone line．
As sad as she could be， she would have to clear his belongings． Suddenly she saw an insurance policy in the drawers， whose beneficiary（受益人）was her． Together in that file there's the note．
"To my dearest wife， by the time you are reading this， I'm sure I'm no longer around， I bought this policy for you． I hope it will be able to help me continue my promise-taking care of you． I want you to know I will always be around by your side． I love you．"

Are you preparing for a big test？ If so， you may want to go to play some basketball in between hitting the books． Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development． Judy Cameron， a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University， studies brain development． According to her research， it seems that exercise can make blood vessels（血管），including those in the brain， stronger and more fully developed． Dr． Cameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think better． As she says， "while we already know that exercise is good for the heart， exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain．"
The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies． Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active． Even a little movement can show big results． Margaret Barns， a scientist， also believes in the importance of the exercise． She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies． "Babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses． They need to set up a connection between motion and memory． In this way， as they get older， children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning，" says Margaret．
Older people can develop their brains as well． Cornell University studied a group of seniors who have a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week． The exercise does not have to be very difficult， but it does have to increase heart rate． Also， just like the motion for babies， exercise for older people should not be too simple． Learning some new skills or actions， such as with yoga or tai-chi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time． For most people， any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful． The main aim is to increase the brain's flow of blood． And your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week．
19. What is the main idea of this passage？ ______
A. How exercise makes people strong．
B. How to get good scores on a test．
C. How exercise helps the brain．
D. How the brain can change．
20. According to the passage， what is the connection between exercise and brain development？ ______
A. Exercise helps make our blood vessels．
B. Physical exercise helps us think better．
C. The brain needs special mental exercise．
D. The more exercise， the bigger the brain．
21. The smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit is ______ ．
A. three hours per week B. 40 hours per week
C. three hours per day D. 40 hours per month
22. Why is yoga suggested for seniors？ ______
A. It does good to the joints of old people．
B. It does not increase the heart rate．
C. It includes learning new actions．
D. It can be done in groups．
"Oh， my God! Did I really just send that text？" Most people have said something that they wish they could take back． And if they had paused to think about it first， they probably would have acted differently． Pausing doesn't pay off just when you speak． Scientific studies have shown that making a habit of pausing before you do something can actually have a big impact on how your life turns out．
In making decisions we rely on two areas of the brain． One area creates and processes emotions；the other governs logical thought． The type of decision， how we feel about it， and how prepared we are to handle it help determine which brain area has the most influence．
But our age also plays an important role． Thinking through the consequences of one's actions is actually harder for teens because the area controlling logical thought is not fully developed until around age 25． This is why teens often feel an intense（强烈的） emotional drive to act impulsively （冲动地）-it's how their brains are structured! Though this tendency to act without considering the outcomes can lead to problematic situations， impulsivity during the developmental years evolves because it makes teens more open to new experiences and ideas． This openness helps teens become independent adults．
The key to making impulsivity work for you-instead of against you-is to train your brain by practicing pausing． This doesn't mean you stop taking risks or being open to new experiences． But you won't know if the risk is worth it until you think it through． Deciding to take a risk based on logic shows self-control， not impulsivity．
What are different ways to pause？ You might take a deep breath， count to 10， or ask， "Is this worth it？" Different strategies work for different people． Whatever works for you， keep doing it! By practicing pausing， you can actually change your brain． This means that over time， pausing， instead of immediately reacting， becomes your "natural" response． And with this change， people are on their way to enjoying the life rewards that come with high levels of self-control-even if they weren't natural-born pausers!
23. What challenges teenagers？ ______
A. Giving natural response．
B. Making logical decision．
C. Acting before thorough thinking．
D. Choosing brain-training strategies．
24. An impulsive person tends to ______ ．
A. think through a risk in advance
B. show high level of self-control
C. consider or accept new ideas
D. change ideas frequently
25. According to the passage， by training one's brain， one can ______ ．
A. stop taking risks
B. fully develop one's brain
C. become more open to new experience
D. reduce the influence of emotional drive
26. What is the best title for the passage？ ______
A. Discover the Brain Function B. Crying Over the Spilt Milk
C. Push the Pause Button D. Impulsivity Works
Fencing or Not
Wildlife fences are constructed for a variety of reasons including to prevent the spread of diseases， to protect wildlife from poachers（偷猎者）， and to help manage small populations of threatened species． Human-wildlife conflict is another common reason for building fences． Wildlife can damage valuable farm animals and crops． Some species carry diseases of agricultural concern， and a few threaten human lives． At the same time， people kill wild animals for food， trade， or to defend lives or property， and human activities destroy wildlife habitat（栖息地）． Separating people and wildlife by fencing can appear to be a mutually beneficial way to avoid such harmful effects． But in a paper in the journal Science， published recently， some scientists argue that fencing should only be used if worse comes to worst．
According to the scientists， although fencing can have conservation benefits， it also has costs． When areas of wildlife habitat are changed into islands， the resulting small and isolated populations tend towards extinction， and the resulting loss of larger-bodied species can affect interactions between species in ways that cause further local extinctions． Therefore， scientists are asking that conservationists carefully weigh up the biodiversity costs and benefits of new and existing fences．
In addition to fences' ecosystem-wide impact， the scientists don't think they always achieve their specific aims． Construction of fences to reduce human-wildlife conflict has been successful in some places but the challenges of appropriate fence design， location， construction， and protection mean that fences often fail to deliver the anticipated benefits． In some places， fences also provide poachers with a ready supply of wire for making traps．
A variety of alternative approaches， including better caring for farm animals， community-based crop-guarding， insurance and wildlife-sensitive land-use planning are suggested to reduce conflicts between people and wildlife without the need for fencing． Some projects working with local people and government agencies in Indonesia have shown that human-elephant conflict can be dramatically reduced without using fences．
The scientists conclude that as climate change increases the importance of facilitating wildlife mobility and conserving landscape connectivity， fence removal may become an important form of climate change preparation， and so fencing of wildlife should be avoided whenever possible．
27. What does the underlined word "mutually" in Paragraph 1 probably mean？ ______
A. Indeed． B. Outdoors． C. Straight． D. Both．
28. According to the scientists， what will fencing influence？ ______
A. Land building． B. Species diversity．
C. Human population． D. Wildlife's body size．
29. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 4？ ______
A. Replacements for fences．
B. Wildlife-protection methods．
C. Effective land-use approaches．
D. Conflicts between human and wildlife
30. The main purpose of the passage is to ______ ．
A. argue and prove B. inform and explain
C. appeal and discuss D. compare and assess

考查连词词义辨析．做题时先弄清每个选项的含义，再结合句意选出最佳选项．
3.【答案】C
【解析】
C．考查动词时态．因为是去年，所以用过去的某种时态，排除AB．D选项表示"过去的过去"，也不符合．C选项为过去时的被动语态，表示"过去被表扬"．
故选：C．
去年赢了羽毛球比赛，Mike得到了表扬．
动词时态有很多种，需要大家在理解句意的前提下仔细分析，选出正确答案．关键要熟悉每一种时态表达的含义和用法．
4.【答案】B
【解析】
答案：B 句中cause作misunderstandings的后置定语，cause与被修饰名词misunderstandings构成动宾关系，且句意表达的是已经发生的动作．故选B．
这位记者就自己关于那位影星的文章所引起的误解道了歉．
过去分词是非谓语动词的一种，用法很灵活，分为简单式done（表示与谓语同时或几乎同时发生的动作）；完成式having been done（表示先于谓语的动作）．学习时，要把握其用法特征：表示被动和完成．同时还要注意区分现在分词和不定式．
5.【答案】A
【解析】
A．考查动词时态．根绝yesterday和all day可以知道，这是昨天一整天都在进行的动作，过去某个时间段一直进行的动作，用过去进行时．B项过去将来时，C项过去完成时，D项现在完成时均不符合语境．

介词的题目要认真掌握好常用介词的主要用法及动词与介词的搭配．这是考查的重点，也是做题的基础．在具体的题目中，要首先判断考查方式，是考查介词辨析，介词短语，还是带介词的定语从句，判断后再做分析．
7.【答案】D
【解析】
答案：D．考查非谓语过去分词．分词做状语时，如果动词与后面的主语构成主动关系，就使用现在分词的形式，如果构成被动关系，就使用过去分词．本题的see与our earth构成被动关系，所以使用过去分词．With符合结构中water与cover构成主动关系，则使用现在分词的形式．句意：从月球上看，因为有水覆盖着，我们的地球似乎是一个蓝色的球．
故选：D．
从月球上看，因为有水覆盖着，我们的地球似乎是一个蓝色的球．
过去分词的解题关键是看动词与逻辑主语的关系，当逻辑主语是分词动作的执行者的时候，是一种主谓关系，如果两者是动宾关系的时候，就用过去分词．过去分词表示的动作具有被动或完成的意义．
8.【答案】C
【解析】
由"我正要去洗澡"可知昨晚你打电话时"我刚刚画完"，"画完"在"打电话"之前，即过去的过去，故用过去完成时．
故选：C．
我昨晚打电话给你的时候你在干什么？
-我刚画完就开始洗澡．
本题考查过去完成时，过去完成时表示过去的过去发生的事情，属于相对的时态，在过去的动作之前发生的可以用过去完成时．
9.【答案】C
【解析】

每天写日记，然后你就会提高你的写作能力．
解答此类问题，首先需要判断题干所属的句型，然后结合句子所缺成分和句型构成选择正确答案．
10.【答案】A
【解析】
答案A
解析：考查主语从句．句子is known to us all 缺少主语，what做主语，引导主语从句，双重作用，what is known to us all是一个名词性从句，常用来作主语从句．也可以说as is known to us all ，he will visit our school tomorrow．还可以It is known to us all that he will visit our school tomorrow．
故选：A．
我们都知道他明天会来我们学校参观．
It Is known to us that /to do是独立句，其中it 是形式主语，真正主语是后面that 从句或to do动词不定式，as is known to us all是由as引导的定语从句， as指代后面或前面的整个主句，因此as is known to us all结构可放句首，也可放句中或句末， 但一定要用逗号与主句隔开，what is known to us all是一个名词性从句，常用来作主语从句．
11.【答案】A
【解析】
答案：A．
和ever since…连用，用现在完成时表示动作从过去到现在一直在做，所以选A．

答案：B．本题考查错综时间的虚拟语气．从句是和过去相反的虚拟语气，用had done，省略if，将had提前，主句是和现在相反的虚拟条件句，用would do．故选B．
如果你多关注功课，你现在可以跟上你的同学．
这句话考查错综时间的虚拟语气．主从句的时间不一致，要分别分析看和什么时候的情况相反，再根据主从句应该的时态做题．
13.【答案】B
【解析】
答案：B．考查it做形式宾语，该句中，it放在find后面做形式宾语，真正的宾语是to do不定式，结合句意，最近我发现学好英语并不是那么难．
故选：B．
最近我发现学好英语并不是那么难．

14.【答案】C
【解析】
答案：C．考查情态动词．句意：他们在海滩逗留期间，天气有暴风雨，所以他们不可能度过一个非常愉快的假期．根据前文句子The weather was stormy during their stay at the beach可以推断他们一定玩的不好，是对过去的有把握的否定推测，所以用can't /couldn't have done结构．
故选：C．
他们在海滩逗留期间，天气有暴风雨，所以他们不可能度过一个非常愉快的假期．

23.【答案】
【小题1】B | 【小题2】C | 【小题3】D | 【小题4】C |
【解析】
1．B．推断题．由第三段第二句"Thinking through the consequences of one's actions is actually harderfor teens because the area controlling logical thought is not fully developed until around age 25"和第三句"T his is why teens often feel an intense emotional drive to act impulsively""可知，青少年并不能很好地进行逻辑思考，也不习惯在做事前仔细思考，更倾向于靠本能做决定．故正确答案为B．
2．C． 推断题．A项，由第三段第三句"T his is why teens often feel an intense emotional drive to act impulsively"和第四句"T hough the tendency to act without considering the outcomes canlead to problematic situations" 可知，冲动的人容易不顾后果，因此不会在事前权衡风险，故A项错误．B项，由第四段最后- -句" Deciding totake a risk based on logic shows self-control， not impulsivity" 可知，冲动的人自制力比较差，故B项错误．C项，由第三段第四句中的"impulsivity during the developmental years evolves because it makes teens more open to new experiences and ideas．"可知，冲动会使人更容易接受新经验和新思想，故C项正确．D项，文章并没有提到"冲动的人会频繁的改变想法"，故D项错误．故正确答案为C．
3．D．推断题．由第四段最后一句"Deciding to take a risk based onlogic shows self-control， not impulsivity" 可知，训练自己的大脑可以提高自控力，借以减少做决定时感情因素的影响，而更多的依赖于冷静的逻辑思维和分析，D项正确．A项，由第四段第一、二句"T he key to making impulsivity work for you一instead of against you一is to train your brain by practicing pausing． T his doesn't mean you stop taking risks"可知训练大脑并不意味着你能停止冒险，A项错误．B项，文章没有提到进行大脑训练可以完全开发人的大脑，B项错误．C项，由第三段倒数第二句"impulsivity …makes teens moreopen to new experiences and ideas" 和第四段第二句"T his doesn't mean you stop taking risks or being open to new experiences．"可知，进行大脑训练并不会使人更容易接受新经验，故C项错误．故正确答案为D．
4．C． 主旨题．文章开头部分以例子的形式引出话题"冲动（impulsivity）"， 然后分析人性格冲动的原因，接下来就指出了解决方法：训练自己的大脑，提高自控力，用逻辑分析来做决定，减少感情因素对我们做决定的影响，即Pause before making decision． 故可知C项Push the Pause Button 是文章最适合的标题．A项，"发现大脑的功能"，这一说法太宽泛而且与文章关系不大，故A项错误．B项，"为撒了的牛奶哭泣"，即为已经发生的不好的事情而惋惜，这一说法与文章内容没有直接关系，故B项错误．D项，"冲动有用"，作者在文章中明确提出了要训练大脑，抑制冲动，这一说法有悖文章内容，故D项错误．故正确答案为C．．
本文是一篇说明文．文章主要讲的是影响人们做决定的因素．科学研究发现，在做事情之前，停下来思考一下是很有必要的，人们依靠大脑的两个区域来作出决定，一个区域产生情绪，另一个区域控制着逻辑思维．
阅读理解应该在整体把握文章结构的前提下，注意细节信息．做题时，根据所提问题用寻读、跳读的方法可达到事半功倍的效果．同时，在阅读时也要特别注意文中以粗体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是文章的核心或某一部分内容的概括．

1．D． 推断题．由第一段第二、三句"Wildlife can damage valuable farm animals and crops．Some species carry diseases ofagricultural concern， and a fewthreaten human lives…people killwild animals for food， trade， or todefend lives or property， and humanactivities destroy wildlife habitat" ， 可知人类和野生动物互相伤害，把人类和野生动物分隔开来能使农作物和人类的生命得到保护，同时，野生动物也能免遭杀害，这似乎是对人类和野生动物都有益处的办法，说明划线词是"相互的"之意，故选D．
2．B．细节理解．根据第二段第二句the resulting small and isolated populations tend towards extinction， and the resulting loss oflarger-bodied species…cause further local extinctions"可知， 科学家认为隔离野生动物和人类会造成动物的灭绝；结合第二段最后一句"scientists are asking that conservationists carefully weigh up the biodiversity costs and benefits of new and existing fences．"可知科学家们认为fencing会进而影响物种的多样化，故选B．
3．A．主旨大意．由第四段第一句"A variety ofalternative approaches…are suggested to reduce con flicts between peopleand wildli fe without the need for fencing"可知，可知，人们提出了许多别的方法来替代围栏，减少人和野生动物之间的冲突，包括更加关心动物等等．第二句又讲到在印度尼西亚，一些项目与当地人民和政府机构合作，证明了人与象之间的冲突不用围栏也可以显著减少，由此推知，该段主要讲述围栏的替代，故选A．
4． B．主旨题．文章第一段先表述了目前人类与野生动物的关系，引出了篱笆隔离这一话题，之后指出科学家们反对用篱笆来隔离野生动物，并解释了理由．接下来，文章又提出了很多措施处理人与野生动物的关系，并希望以此代替篱笆，在最后-．段又指出了取消以篱笆隔离野生动物这一举动的现实意义．由此可见这篇文章旨在向世人提出"取消篱笆"这一建议，并解释了其背后的原因，提出了替代的措施．故选B．
本文是一篇议论文．文章主要讲的是人类和野生动物之间的冲突．一方面，野生动物给农作物带来伤害，还可能会威胁人的生命；另一方面，人类捕杀野生动物，人类活动破坏野生动物的栖息地．为了解决这种冲突，有人提出用隔离人类和野生动物的办法．科学家认为此举不利于保护物种的多样性．

Then finally came the test day．As the starting gun sounded for the race to begin，I called upon all my body's strength and speed．I ran with purpose．After enduring the long run，I approached the finish line．Quickening my steps，I was confident and hopeful．The moment I rounded the last turn，I knew I had made it．After crossing the finish line，I was so overjoyed to see my cheering classmates．I received their celebratory high-fives proudly and tears of happiness streamed down my cheeks，as my teacher shook my hand．
From this experience，I have learned that I should face my fears bravely and appreciate those who are always willing to help me，making me a better person．
