Well, there may be some truth t, according to that,

11、 according to researchers at Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Ellen Langer, a Harvard psychologist who studies how the mind influences the body, and colleagues reviewed the scientific literature for evidence that a persons perception of their age might influence their health. Th

12、ey published their results in the journal Perspectives on Psychological Science.In one study that Langer led, 47 women had their hair done. The women who thought their new hairdos made them look younger did look younger to objective observers, who were shown before-and-after pictures. The women who

13、thought they looked younger also showed a drop in blood pressure. Another study involving 4,421 men found that thise who became bald(秃顶)at a relatively young age were more likely to get cancer and heart disease than men who did not. Similarly, another study involving 2,017 men found that those who l

14、ost their hair early were more likely to develop heart disease. “We believe that the feelings associated with being older than ones real age account for some of these health outcomes,” the researchers wrote.The researchers also described studies that found that women who had children later in life w

15、ere more likely to be healthier and live longer than those who had children early, which they attributed to the fact that these mothers tend to spend more time with younger women. Similarly, people who marry younger partners tend to live longer than those who marry older partners, according to other

16、 studies.Taken together, the research “supports the general mind-body hypothesis(假说)that when a younger mind is prepared, a younger body can accompany it.” While the mechanism remains unclear, the researchers figured that suggestions associated with aging can “make one unconsciously or consciously a

17、ware of old age and set in motion a series of physiological processes that can have real effects on short-term and long-term health.”1、The underlined word “perception” in Paragraph 2 means .AviewBappearanceCinfluenceDcreation2、Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 3?ABlood

18、 pressure is highly related to hairdos.BFeeling older than real age may be tied to health problems.CGetting cancer or heart disease is the cause of hair losing.DThe women who love hairdos look younger than those dont.3、It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that .Aa younger mother is more likely to liv

20、CFeeling younger to a couple is very important to their healthDPeoples feeling of their age may have an effect on their own health22（8分）A new “smart bin” could mean the end of environment-conscious families spending hours sorting tins, cartons, bottles, and cardboard for recycling.The invention, whi

21、ch can help sort rubbish into recycling categories without needing people to operate. It is being trialed in Poland and is set to go on sale in UK within a few years.The bin, designed by start-up company Bin.E, recognizes different type of waste via a system positioned inside the bin which uses sens

22、ors, image recognition and artificial intelligence. Once waste is placed inside, the camera and sensor identify its type and place it in one of the smaller bins. Then it compresses the waste so it occupies less space.It is thought that the bin could be stocked by department stores such as John Lewis

23、, which said it is introducing more new hi-tech recycling bins. Matt Thomas, a buyer at John Lewis, gave us the reason, “Weve recently seen a jump in specialist bins sales, with a 25 percent increase in the last few months alone. We have noticed our customers are becoming more and more focused on su

24、stainability. In response to this demand, we are really excited to introduce a smart bin this autumn/winter season-designed to make recycling more efficient and functional for the everyday home.Bin.Es official release on the market will take place in 2018. However, at first only a larger version des

25、igned for offices will be available.The office bin will sell at 430 while customers will need to pay a 107 subscription fee for an accompanying smartphone app, which hooks them up with collection services. A spokesman at Bin.E said that home version of the bin will be cheaper and will not include a

26、monthly payment.They added: “After the office version, we plan to create an outdoor version and later the home version. We decided to go for the outdoor version for public areas first because it is more difficult to organize an efficient waste segregating system than in our homes.”1、What do we know

27、about about a new “smart bin” from the first paragraph?AIt works automatically.BIt has been used widely.CIt is easy to operate.DIt is very expensive.2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AThe waste.BThe camera.CThe bin.DThe sensor.3、Why is John Lewis introducing more new hi-te

28、ch recycling bins?ATo change peoples behaviour,BTo satisfy increasing demands.CTo popularize new technology.DTo make them more famous.4、Where will the first version of new “smart bin” be used according to Bin. Es official?AAt home.BIn the supermarket.CIn the open air.DIn the office.23（8分） For a lot

29、of people, getting a full nights sleep is nothing more than just a dream. Some of us climb into bed in the early evening, and the next thing we know, its 2 in the morning and were still staring at the ceiling. Its common knowledge that sleep problems can be caused by things such as stress, anxiety,

30、or even using a smart phone before bedtime. But recently, a team of researchers discovered that genes could also be a cause of sleepless nights.The scientists, from The Rockefeller University in New York, US, found that DSPD, delayed sleep phase disorder（睡眠时相延迟综合征）, a condition that affects ones sle

31、eping patterns, is passed down by a mutated gene（发生变异的基因）. DSPD sufferers wake up later and go to bed later than the average person. To come to their conclusion, the team studied a 46-year-old woman who is only usually able to fall asleep at 2 or 3 in the morning. It was discovered that the womans b

32、ody produces the hormone（激素） that helps her sleep at night up to seven hours later than regular sleepers. The scientists found this is caused by a mutation in one of the womans genes, one that helps regulate the “body clock”.Some of the womans family members were also found to share the same mutatio

33、n and the same sleeping problems leading the scientists to believe that sleep troubles are passed down through the generations.However, having this mutation doesnt mean you automatically have sleep problems. The team also found two people who had the mutation but reported no problems with their slee

34、p.But while this is an interesting discovery, it offers no help to those who cant fall asleep at night although there are a few things you could try to help yourself sleep earlier.BBC journalist Michael Mosley produced a TV documentary in May in which he talked about his battle with insomnia（失眠）and

35、the techniques he used. “I avoid social media for at least an hour before bed, I do mindfulness exercises, and if I wake up in the middle of the night, I read a book for an hour or so,” he wrote in an article for the Radio Times.1、What have scientists recently discovered about sleep problems?ASleep

36、problems can be a result of genetics.BStress and anxiety can cause sleep problems.CSmart phones are the main cause of sleep problems nowadays.DSleep problems are affected by sleeping patterns.2、What can we learn about the mutation of the gene related to sleep?AIt will delay sleep for seven hours.BIt

37、 doesnt necessarily cause sleep problems.CIt will be passed down to every future generation.DIt can be changed to help solve sleep problems.3、What does Michael Mosley suggest doing before sleep to fight against insomnia?AListening to light music.BReading interesting books.CKeeping away from social m

38、edia.DDoing some outdoor exercise.4、Whats the main purpose of the article?ATo give advice on how to cure insomnia.BTo explain different reasons for sleep problems.CTo warn readers of the bad influences of sleeping late.DTo report the discovery of a genetic cause for sleep problems.24（8分）A monk lived

39、 with his brother, a one-eyed idiot(a very stupid person).One day ,when the monk was scheduled to have an interview with a famous theologian(a scientist who studies religions) who had come from far away to meet him, he needed to take care of some matters and would therefore be absent when the theolo

40、gian arrived. He told his brother:“Receive this scholar and treat him well！Dont say a word to him，and everything will be OK.”The monk left the temple. Upon returning, he went to meet his guest.“Did my brother receive you properly?”asked the monk.“You brother is outstanding. Hes a great theologian!”e

41、xclaimed the theologian with great enthusiasm.“What do you mean? My brother-a theologian?”stuttered(结巴地说)the surprised monk.“We had a passionate conversation,”replied the scholar.“We communicated professionally by means of gestures. I showed him one finger and he replied by showing me two. Logically

42、, I answered with three fingers and then he astonished me by raising a closed fist, ending the debate. With one finger, I implied the unity of Buddha. With two fingers, he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory. Delighted by the reply, with three finger

43、s I expressed: Buddha and his theory in the world. Then he suggested a wonderful response, showing me his fist: Buddha, his theory and the world, all together as one whole. ”A little later, the monk went to look for his one-eyed brother.“So how did it go earlier with the theologian?”he asked.“Very s

44、imple,”said the brother.“He made fun of me ;he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye. Not wanting to fall into the conflict, I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes. Critically, he continued, Be that as it may ,between us, we have three eyes. That was the straw that b
