B.Price.C.Reservation. D.Departure time.BMany people think of the brain as a mystery.They dont know much about intelligence and how it works.When they do think about what intelligence is,many people believe that a person is born either smart,average,or dumband stays that way for life.But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscleit changes and gets stronger when you use it.And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.Everyone knows that when you lift weights,your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who cant lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time.Thats because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise.And when you stop exercising,the muscles shrink and you get weaker.Thats why people say,“Use it or lose it!”But most people dont know that when they practice and learn new things,parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise.Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells.Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems.When you learn new things,these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger.The more you challenge your mind to learn,the more your brain cells grow.Then,things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy.The result is a stronger and smarter brain.Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals brains.They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment,with other animals and toys to play with,were more “aptitudinal”they were better at solving problems and learning new things.24.Whats the main idea of the passage?()A.Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is.B.A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle.C.Both muscles and the brain are important to humans.D.Intelligence exists in both humans and animals.25.By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to prove that .A.exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB.exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC.everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD.everyone should learn as many new things as possible26.Like stronger muscles come from exercise,smarter brains need .A.to be well taken care ofB.a good communication between personsC.help from scientistsD.our learning new things27.What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean?()A.Strong.B.Smart.C.Lovely.D.Active.CSeveral years ago I was diagnosed with cancer.It was the most difficult time I have ever faced.I think it was my sense of humor that allowed me to hold onto my sanity (心智健全).Like many people who have gone through chemotherapy(化疗),I lost all of my hair,being bald as a golf ball.I always had enjoyed wearing hats,so I ordered several special hats with the hair already attached.It was easy and I never had to worry about how my hair looked.I have always been a big golf fan.At one point during my cancer treatments,my husband John and I decided to get away from the cold Minnesota winter and took a trip to Scottsdale,Arizona.There was a Senior PGA Tour event called “The Tradition” being played,and that seemed like just the ticket to lift my spirits.The first day of the tournament brought out a huge crowd.It was a beautiful day,and I was in heaven.I was standing and watching my three favorite golfers in the world approach the tee box (开球区):Jack Nicklaus,Raymond Floyd and Tom Weiskopf.Just as they arrived at the tee,the unimaginable happened.A huge gust of wind came up from out of nowhere and blew my hat and hair right off my head and into the middle of the fairway(平坦球道)!The thousands of people lining the fairway fell into an awkward silence,all eyes on me.Even my three favorite golfers were watching me,as my hair was in their flight path.I was ashamed! Embarrassed as I was,I knew I couldnt just stand there.Someone had to do something to get things moving again.So I took a deep breath and out into the middle of the fairway.I took hold of my hat and hair,put them back on my head as best I could.Then I turned to the golfers and loudly announced,“Gentlemen,the wind is blowing from left to right.”They said the laughter could be heard all the way to the nineteenth hole.28.What made the author remain mentally healthy even in her illness?()A.The Tradition.B.The treatment.C.Her family.D.Her humor.29.The underlined phrase in Para.3 “in heaven” probably means “”.A.scared B.embarrassedC.puzzledD.excited30.Why did the author go into the fairway to pick up her hat and hair?()A.To amuse the golfers.B.To give a weather report.C.To have the game restarted.D.To draw others attention.31.We can know from the text that the author .A.was fond of wearing hats B.was an excellent golferC.planned to live in ScottsdaleD.felt worried about her hairDTeens naturally ask parents for money for material things and entertainment.But as the need becomes more frequent,why not get a job so you can earn your own money? Working for your own money will give you a sense of accomplishment and the satisfaction of a job well done.Babysitting is a suitable job for teens.They are best suited as a mothers helper while the mother is working in another part of the house.Babysitting is not a job for girls alone.Boy babysitters are popular with families of boys.Parents rely on friends and neighbors recommendations.Word of mouth is your best form of advertising.Pet-sitting involves caring for peoples pets while the owners are on vacation or away for the day.A pet-sitter will be responsible for giving fresh food and water,walking dogs and cleaning out cat litter boxes.Although the pet-sitter does not spend the night,he is there often enough to bring in the mail,water plants and take the garbage out.Create a flyer with your name,prices and references,and pass it out to the families in your neighborhood.Yard work can be a seasonal job.Spring cleanup is needed for flower beds and preparing the yard for summer.Summer is the busiest time for yard work with lawn mowing (割草坪),edging and trimming(修剪) bushes.Fall is the time for sweeping leaves and planting seeds for spring.If you live in a northern climate,there may be snow that needs shoveling.Odd jobs can mean a variety of things,including painting,washing the pet,weeding the garden,cleaning out the basement,or helping to serve dinner at a party.Doing odd jobs may be a good match for someone with a busy schedule.Most odd jobs only take a few hours to complete.For more information,please click here.32.Whats the main purpose of the text?()A.To show teens how to find a full-time job.B.To encourage teens to help with housework.C.To tell teens ways to earn their own money.D.To ask people to provide jobs for teens.33.What can we learn about babysitting?()A.Babysitting is the best job for teens.B.A babysitter is needed only when the mother is away.C.Parents prefer girl babysitters to boy babysitters.D.Friends or neighbors may be helpful to find a babysitting job.34.A pet-sitter is expected to do all the jobs except .A.feeding and walking a dogB.looking after the house at nightC.bringing in the mailD.taking the garbage out35.The text is most probably taken from a .A.job application B.popular magazineC.life website D.tourist guidebook第二节(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。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Love Your ParentsEven if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times,loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.You love them for the fact that they created you,raised you,and are in part a source of who you are.Here are some ways to love your parents.36. A gentle “good morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart.Remember that they brought you into this world.Without your parents,you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world.Respect them more and cherish these moments.You can use these moments to learn from them when youre off on your own.Its OK to get angry but angry actions dont help you or your parents.Act calmly,cool off,write down your feelings or talk to a friend.37.Obey their requests.It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them.It may seem like you are going through hell when you dont get what you want or you have to clean.However,you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when its cold,raining,snowing,or too hot.Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes.38.
