A Well-Matched CoupleBA good hiking trip shouldbe planned out ahead of time. Whether it is a hike on a mountain trail（路线）or through the woods, an enjoyable hiking trip can easily turn into a dangerous situation if safety is not considered well. North Mountain State Park remends hikers consider the following tips before hitting any trails:Make a copy of youritineraryto give to a family member or a friend.Make sure that someone close to you knows where you are and how long you will be gone.Wear a good pair of hiking boots or strong athletic shoes.The right shoes will keep you safe, warm, and fortable.Prepare for various types of weather conditions.Check the forecast before you leave; take along sunglasses and extra clothing (e.g., a hat and /or a jacket for a day hike).Pack plenty of food and water.Consider how long your hike will be and pack accordingly.Pack basic and essential supplies.Bring a first-aid kit(急救箱), a flashlight, a pocket knife, a map of the area (if available), and a pass.

Your appearance can do a lot for you, especially if you are in the financial（金融） industry. The more trustworthy（可信的） you look, the more likely people will buy what youre selling.Researchers from Britains University of Warwick Business School, University College London, and Dartmouth College, US, did a number of experiments.The research team used puter software to make 40 faces, from the least to the most trustworthy-looking.The study said that the difference between a trustworthy face and one that isnt as trustworthy es from features that look slightly angry or slightly happy, even when the face is at rest. However, a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted.Researchers gave participants some money and asked them which face they trusted to invest（投资） the money. Then researchers gave some good and bad information about the people with these faces, and asked the participants（参与者） again whom they trusted.The results showed that even if they got different information, the participants didnt change their choices. They were still more likely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces.Chris Olivola, one of the studys authors, said in the University of Warwicks press release: “It seems that we are still willing to go with our own instincts (本能) about whether we think someone looks like we can trust them. The temptation (诱惑) to judge strangers by their faces is hard to resist.”33. According to the study, which of the following faces is most likely to be trusted? A. A sad face. B. An angry face. C. A crying face. D. A smiling face.34. Which of the following about the experiment is TRUE?A. The trustworthy faces were given good information.B. Researchers took photos of the 40 peoples faces in college.C. Participants liked to choose the faces with good information.D. Most participants gave their money to the trustworthy-looking faces.35. What did the researchers learn from their experiment?A. People cant refuse temptations.B. People often judge strangers by their faces. C. People do things with their instincts all the time.D. People dont trust strangers with sad faces.DSports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You dont need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you dont have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, its free.32. Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of? A. Cycling around a lake. B. Motor racing in the desert. C. Playing basketball in a gym. D. Swimming in a sports center.33. What do we know about golf from the passage? A. It is popular in Portugal and Spain. B. It causes water shortages around the world. C. It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes. D. It needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.34. The author uses power walking as an example mainly because _. A. it is an outdoor sport B. it improves our health C. it uses fewer resources D. it is remended by experts35. The author writes the passage to _. A. show us the function of major sports B. encourage us to go in for green sports C. discuss the major influence of popular sports D. introduce different types of environment-friendly sports第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。We all have one, dont we? A friend whos always late. The one who turns up for coffee a full half hour after the appointed time. 36 . The dear pal(朋友) who sends a message saying “Sorry, bit delayed.”, when theyre already 20 minutes behind schedule. Or just maybe, if youre really honest, this persistently tardy (拖延的) individual is actually you yourself. 37 .How on earth can people be so inconsiderate?Recent research suggests that there might be more to this than simple rudeness. Psychologists from Washington University believe people view time differently. 38 . It even provided them with a clock. Despite this, some people became so absorbed in the activity that they pletely forgot to check the clock. 39 . The less punctual（守时的） among us often share characteristics such as “optimism, low levels of self-control, anxiety.” Why optimism, you ask? Optimists tend to overestimate（高估） how much they can achieve and underestimate（低估） problems, which means they dont account for the long traffic jam on the way to meet you for that coffee.Heres another thought: maybe language is to blame? The English phrase “to be fashionably late” is used to describe the proper time to arrive at an event. If youre too early, you can appear overly eager, but if youre a bit late, you seem cool and sophisticated (老练的). The problem is, what one person regards as fashionably late, another may view as plain impolite. 40 .A. Our personality also plays a roleB. Keep a distance from those full of excuses（借口）C. Next time you have coffee, do try to be on timeD. The one who seems to be forever “stuck in traffic”E. Either way, lateness can be extremely annoying（令人讨厌的） to the receiving endF. Participants（参与者） were required to set down how long they finished a taskG. Their study gave participants a specific amount of time to plete a task第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。We humans love to make parisons（比较）.
