二、单项选择(共 15小题，每小题1分，满分 15分)
1. The managers discussed the plan that they would like to see ________ out next year.
A. carry B. to be carried C. to carry D. carried
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：经理们讨论了明年他们想要看到实施的那项计划。that they would like to see ________ out the next year是定语从句修饰先行词plan，先行词在从句中作see的宾语，carry out作宾语补足语，与宾语plan是动宾关系，即计划被执行，应该用过去分词形式表示被动，并作宾补，故选D。
2. ________ brought them to the public’s attention was that they were condemned ________ in some illegal business practices to obtain their current position in the market.
A. Which; to be involved B. That; to involve
C. What; to be involved D. That; to be involved
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查主语从句和固定短语。句意：让他们引起公众注意的是，他们被判参与一些非法的商业活动，以获得目前的市场地位。A. Which哪一个； to be involved参与；B. That那个； to involve参与；C. What什么；to be involved参与；D. That那个；to be involved参与。分析句子可知，第一个设空处引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，意为“……的东西、什么”，应用连接代词what引导；短语involve sb. in，意为“使某人参与”，设空处在句中作非谓语，和逻辑主语they构成被动关系，用be involved in，condemn sb. to do sth.判某人做某事，故设空处应用不定式的被动结构，故选C。
3. ________ is known to all that the outstanding academic atmosphere, as well as various festivals and sports, ________ many students to our school.
A. It; draws B. Which; draw C. What; draws D. As; draw
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句型和主谓一致。句意：众所周知，我们学校优秀的学术氛围，以及各种节日和体育活动吸引了许多学生来我校。分析句子可知，第一空为固定句型it is known to sb. that...“众所周知……”，it是形式主语，that引导主语从句，而此空应填形式主语It；第二空考查主谓一致，主语后跟as well as等附属成分时，谓语动词的数要与前面的主语保持一致，主语atmosphere为不可数名词，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故选A项。
4. My neighbour Sana is always sheltering her child too much, and that’s ____we differ.
A. when B. what C. how D. where
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查表语从句连接词。句意：我的邻居Sana总是庇护她的孩子太多，这是我们的不同之处。此处为表语从句，从句中缺少地点状语，应用关系副词where。故选D。
【点睛】名词性从句关键在于三点：
一、找准从句在主句中充当的成分即分出是名词性从句的主语句、宾语从句、表语从句还是同位语从句；
二、连接词从句中充当的成分（主、宾、定或状语或不做任何成分）；
三、弄清楚每个连接词的意义。此外还要注意，近年来高考对于名词性从句的考查多从名词性从句的语序和连接词的用法区别上考查。
5. ________ to the virus during the college entrance examination was the reason ________ he couldn't be admitted to the key university.
A. Being exposed; why B. Exposed; that
C Being exposed; that D. Exposed; because
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词和定语从句。句意：在高考期间接触病毒是他不能被重点大学录取的原因。分析句子结构可知，句中缺少主语，所以用动名词作主语。第二空考查定语从句，句中先行词为reason，在定语从句中作原因状语，所以用关系副词why引导。故选A。
6. Since ________ your classmates can solve this math problem, you’d better turn to your math teacher for help.
A. all B. not all C. none of D. both
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查代词词义辨析。句意：既然你的同学没有一个能解出这道数学题，你最好向你的数学老师求助。A. all全部；B. not all并不是所有的；C. none of都不；D. both两者。根据“you’d better turn to your math teacher for help.”可知，没有同学能解出这道数学题。故选C。
7. It is demanded that every student in Zhixin High School ________ themselves to studying.
A. devotes B. devoted C. is devoted D. devote
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意：志新中学要求每个学生都要全身心地投入到学习中去。表达“投身于……，投入”用devote oneself to...，It is demanded that… 要求……，这种结构的主语从句中，谓语动词用“should + 动词原形”，should可以省略。故选D。
8. No matter how frequently ________ in the Louvre in Paris, the masterpieces of Pablo Picasso always attract a large number of audience.
A. display B. displayed C. displays D. are displayed
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查让步状语从句的省略。句意：无论巴勃罗·毕加索的杰作在巴黎卢浮宫多么频繁地展出，它们总能吸引大批观众。A. display展示；B. displayed展示；C. displays展示；D. are displayed被展示。在让步，时间等状语从句中，如果主从句中主语一致，从句中谓语含be动词，可以将从句中的主语和be省略，即从句原句为：No matter how frequently (the masterpieces of Pablo Picasso are) displayed in the Louvre in Paris可知，此处省略从句的主语和be动词，用过去分词表被动。故选B。
9. __________many times, the naughty boy still made the same mistake.
A. He had been told B. Having been told C. To be told D. Having told
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：虽然被告诉了很多次，这个淘气的男孩还是犯了同样的错误。句中逻辑主语the naughty boy 与tell之间为被动关系，且与 made the same mistake存在先后关系，所以用现在分词的完成被动式作状语。故选B。
10. ________ to the dancing practice resulted in ________.
A. Spencer’s not coming; his being punished
B. Not Spencer’s coming; his being punished
C. Spencer did not come; him punished
D. Spencer not coming; his to be punished
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：斯宾塞不来参加舞蹈训练导致他受到了惩罚。第一空为动名词的复合结构：名词所有格+动名词，作主语，否定词在所有格之后；第二空动名词作宾语，且punish与Spencer 构成被动关系，应用being done形式。故选A。
11. All approaches you thought the problem are very reasonable.
A. of solving B. to solve C. of to solving D. to solving
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语。句意：你为解决这个问题所想到的办法都很合理。句中“想到，考虑到”的宾语是名词approaches，要用think of。“做某事的方法”是the approach to doing sth，综上，故选C。
12. Mr. Frank asked me a question ________ I could go with him to ________ he called the Treasure House the next week.
A. that; which B. whether; what C. whether; that D. that; where
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查连词。句意：Frank先生问我下周是否能跟他一起去所谓的藏宝室的地方。根据句子分析可知，第一个从句“___ I could go with him”为a question的同位语从句，句子不缺成分，意思为“是否”，故用whether引导。第二个从句“___ he called the Treasure House”做介词to的宾语从句，从句缺call的直接宾语，意为“什么”，故用what引导宾语从句，并在从句中做宾语。故选B。
13. It is high time that the world ________ the importance of cooperation.
A. realized B. would realize C. realize D. will realize
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气和时态。句意：现在是世界认识到合作的重要性的时候了。It is high time that....表示“是该做某事的时候了”，从句谓语用一般过去时或“should+动词原形”，should不能省略。故选A 。
14. ________ finishes the homework carefully will have good grades.

【解析】
【详解】考查主语从句的引导词。句意：谁认真完成作业，谁就会取得好成绩。A. No matter what无论什么；B. Whatever无论什么；C. No matter who无论谁；D. Whoever无论谁。分析句子的结构可知，设空处引导主语从句，且在句中作主语表示“无论谁”；no matter作“不管，无论”讲，后接what/who/when等词，引导让步状语从句；而 whoever和whatever既可引导让步状语从句，还可引导主语从句、宾语从句等，表示“无论谁”应用whoever。故选D。
15. The officer claimed ________ the proof ________ he cheated in the recent elections.
A. to find; why B. to have found; that C. having found; which D. to find; that
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查不定式的完成式和同位语从句。句意：这位官员声称已经找到了他在最近选举中作弊的证据。claim to do (声称要做)，该用法是固定用法，“发现”的动作早于“宣称”，用不定式的完成式；________ he cheated in the recent elections是同位语从句修饰名词proof，引导词在从句中不作任何成分，也没有实际意义，用that引导该从句。故选B。

【导语】这是一篇应用文。短文介绍了关于旅客乘坐飞机携带物品的一些安全须知以及收费标准。
【16题详解】
细节理解题。由Bag Fees中的“Overweight Bags heavier than 10 kilos ¥100 per kilo over limit(超过10千克的包，每超过一千克，收费100元)”可知，一个110厘米x50厘米x25厘米、重13公斤的随身包，乘客要支付3×100=300。而包的尺寸并没有超过图表中所给出的尺寸“110cmX60cmX30cm”，所以不收费。故只收取超重的3千克的费用，即300元。故选C。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。由Note中的“If you have any liquid medicines over 100ml that you must use during your flight, please contact our customer service manager on 34533566 to make arrangements at least 24 hours before your departure.(如果您有超过100毫升的液体药品必须在飞行途中使用，请至少在起飞前24小时致电34533566联系我们的客户服务经理安排)”可知，乘客至少在他们起飞前一天联系经理，说明一下在飞机上要携带100毫升以上的药水。故选C。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。由Safety Rules中“For the safety of our passengers, the following items must not be taken onto the plane: —Bottles containing gas (e.g. cigarette lighter)(为了本公司乘客的安全，以下物品不得携带上飞机：——装有气体的瓶子（如打火机）)”可知，气瓶不允许乘客带上飞机。故选D。
B
At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves learning-disabled children, the father of one student delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by those who attended. He began with a question. “Everything God does is done with perfection. Yet, my son, Shay, cannot learn and understand things as other children do. Where is God’s plan reflected in my son?”
The audience was stilled by the question. The father continued, “I believe that when God brings a childlike Shay into the world, an opportunity to realize the Divine Plan presents itself. And it comes in the way people treat that child.”
Then he told the following story:
Shay and I walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked, “Do you think they will let me play?”
I knew that most boys would not want him on their team. Shay didn’t even know how to hold the bat properly much less connect with the ball. So I approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance from his teammates. Getting none, he took matters into his own hands and said, “We are losing by six runs. The game is in the eighth inning. He can be on our team and we will try to put him up to bat in the ninth inning.”
In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. At the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the outfield.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay’s team scored again. They had the potential to win. Would the team actually let Shay bat at this juncture and give away their chance to win the game?
Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. At last, understanding what the boy’s intentions had been, the boys from both teams helped Shay win the game for the team and Shay was cheered as the hero.
“That day,” said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, “the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of the Divine Plan into this world.”
19. Why did the father think most of the boys wouldn’t let Shay join them?
A. Because it was an important game and they couldn’t afford to lose it.
B. Because they knew Shay was physically disabled.
C. Because they knew Shay was anything but good at playing baseball.
D. Because they didn’t get along well with Shay.
20. The sentence “Although no hits came his way, he was obviously very happy just to be on the field.” should be put at the end of ________.
A. Paragraph 5 B. Paragraph 6 C. Paragraph 8 D. Paragraph 9
21. The underlined word “juncture” can be explained by ________.
A. a dilemma B. a particular place
C. an important point D. a critical game
22. Which of the following best describes the father’s feeling in telling the story?
A. Optimistic. B. Excited. C. Regretful. D. Grateful.
【答案】19. C 20. B 21. C 22. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。Shay不能像其他孩子一样学习和理解事物，他的父亲讲述了他们在公园时男孩们邀请Shay参加棒球比赛的故事。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“I knew that most boys would not want him on their team. Shay didn’t even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball.(我知道大多数男孩都不希望他加入他们的队伍。夏伊甚至不知道如何正确地握球棒，更不用说击球了)”可知，父亲认为大多数男孩不会让夏伊加入他们是因为他们知道夏伊根本不擅长打棒球。故选C。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. At the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the outfield.(在第八局下半部分，夏伊的球队得到了几分，但仍然落后3分。第九局结束时，夏伊戴上手套，在外场打球)”可推知，夏伊上场了，故句子“虽然没有命中，但他显然很高兴能在球场上”应该放在第六段结尾。故选B。
【21题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“They had the potential to win. Would the team actually let Shay bat at this”以及后文“and give away their chance to win the game?”可知，球队有获胜的潜力，球队真的会让夏伊在这个关键时刻击球而放弃赢得比赛的机会吗？故画线词意思是“关键时刻”。故选C。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““That day,” said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, “the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of the Divine Plan into this world.”(“那一天，”父亲轻声说，眼泪从他的脸上滚落下来，“两队的男孩帮助把神圣计划的一部分带到这个世界上。”)”可推知，父亲在讲故事的时候觉得很感激，感激那些男孩让夏伊感受到了一份人性的真爱。故选D。
C
Junk food is everywhere. We’re eating way too much of it. Most of us know what we’re doing and yet we do it anyway.
So here’s a suggestion offered by two researchers at the Rand Corporation: Why not take a lesson from alcohol control policies and apply them to where food is sold and how it’s displayed?
“Many policy measures to control obesity (肥胖症) assume that people consciously and rationally choose what and how much they eat and therefore focus on providing information and more access to healthier foods,” note the two researchers.
“In contrast,” the researchers continue, “many regulations that don’t assume people make rational choices have been successfully applied to control alcohol, a substance - like food - of which immoderate (过度) consumption leads to serious health problems.”
The research references studies of people’s behavior with food and alcohol and results of alcohol restrictions, and then lists five regulations that the researchers think might be promising if applied to junk foods. Among them:
Density restrictions: licenses to sell alcohol aren’t handed out unplanned to all comers but are allotted (分配) based on the number of places in an area that already sell alcohol. These make alcohol less easy to get and reduce the number of psychological cues to drink.
Similarly, the researchers say, being presented with junk food stimulates our desire to eat it. So why not limit the density of food outlets, particularly ones that sell food rich in empty calories? And why not limit sale of food in places that aren’t primarily food stores?
Display and sales restrictions: California has a rule prohibiting alcohol displays near the cash registers in gas stations, and in most places you can’t buy alcohol at drive-through facilities. At supermarkets, food companies pay to have their wares in places where they’re easily seen. One could remove junk food to the back of the store and ban them from the shelves at checkout lines. The other measures include restricting portion sizes, taxing and prohibiting special price deals for junk foods, and placing warning labels on the products.
23. What does the author say about junk food?
A. People should be educated not to eat too much.
B. It is widely consumed despite strict policies.
C. Its temptation is too strong for people to resist.
D. It causes more harm than is generally realized.
24. What is the general guideline the Rand researchers suggest about junk food control?
A. Guiding people to make rational choices about food.
B. Enhancing people’s awareness of their own health.
C. Borrowing ideas from alcohol control measures.
D. Resorting to economic, legal and psychological means.
25. What do the Rand researchers think of many of the policy measures to control obesity?
A. They are based on wrong assumptions.
B. They provide misleading information.
C. They should be implemented effectively.
D. They help people make rational choices.
26. Why do policymakers of alcohol control place density restrictions?
A. Few people are able to resist alcohol’s temptations.
B. There are already too many stores selling alcohol.
C. Drinking strong alcohol can cause social problems.
D. Easy access leads to customer’ over-consumption.
【答案】23. C 24. C 25. A 26. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Rand公司两位研究人员的建议：借鉴控酒措施的经验，对售卖此类垃圾食品的地点和方式进行控制。文中具体介绍了这么做的原因以及一些具体条例。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Junk food is everywhere. We’re eating way too much of it. Most of us know what we’re doing and yet we do it anyway. (垃圾食品到处都是。我们吃得太多了。我们大多数人都知道自己在做什么，但还是会去做。)”可推断，垃圾食品对人们的诱惑实在是太强了，以至于人们无法抵挡。故选C。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“So here’s a suggestion offered by two researchers at the Rand Corporation: Why not take a lesson from alcohol control policies and apply them to where food is sold and how it’s displayed? (因此，兰德公司的两位研究人员提出了一个建议：为什么不从酒精控制政策中吸取教训，把它们应用到食品的销售地点和展示方式上呢?)”可知，兰德公司的研究人员对垃圾食品的控制提出的总体指导意见是：借鉴酒精控制措施。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Many policy measures to control obesity (肥胖症) assume that people consciously and rationally choose what and how much they eat (许多控制肥胖的政策措施都假设人们有意识地、理性地选择他们吃什么和吃多少)”可推断，很多控制肥胖症的政策措施都是基于错误的假设前提的。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“These make alcohol less easy to get and reduce the number of psychological cues to drink. (这使得酒精不那么容易得到，也减少了喝酒的心理暗示。)”可推断，因为购买的途径很容易的话会导致消费者过度消费。所以要颁布这样一项限制措施，就是为了减少人们购买酒类饮品的数量。故选D。
D
We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs—which typically focus on training our working memory—are a multibillion-dollar industry. But can this kind of training really improve your intelligence?
Cognitive training sees the brain as a kind of muscle that can be made stronger with the right kind of practice. It consists of tasks or games carried out on computers or smart phones. Despite much research, there has so far been no agreement about its effectiveness. Some think that cognitive training increases a broad range of cognitive abilities, while others less optimistic.
Yet we do know that some cognitive skills, such as working memory and intelligence, tend to go together and are predictors of real-life skills such as work performance. Thus, training one cognitive skill might lead to an improvement in many other cognitive and non-cognitive skills. That is exactly the underlying hypothesis(假设) on which working-memory training is based.
To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training we could find with normally developing children: 26 experiments and 1,601 total participants. Children represent an ideal test group: during childhood, skills are still at the beginning of their development. Thus, cognitive training is more likely to succeed with children than adults.
The results were very clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on children’s fluid intelligence—a person’s ability to solve new problems and adapt to new situations. It didn’t influence their academic achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only reliable effect was that children got better at what they trained to do. Nonetheless, the fact that participants got better at working-memory tasks does not necessarily mean that their working-memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that particular type of task.
The results do indicate that the use of working-memory training programs as an educational tool is fruitless. However, the results must not discourage us from training our cognitive and non-cognitive skills. We just have to be aware of the actual limitations of such practice in areas outside what we are actually training. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it—the most efficient way to develop a skill is, after all, to train that skill.
27. What is the benefit of cognitive training according to the passage?
A. It brings much profit to the training companies.
B. It makes one’s brain stronger through practice.
C. It uncovers the secrets of how human brains work.
D. It earns a good reputation for the training company.
28. How did the author find out the effects of working memory training?
A. By conducting several scientific experiments.
B. By comparing test groups of different ages.
C. By reviewing the available previous researches.
D. By interviewing normally developing children.
29. Which of the following shows the effects of the experiments on children?
A. They tend to gain greater academic achievements.
B. They are able to adapt to new situations more quickly.
C. They can perform better in the field they are trained in.
D. They are likely to succeed in dealing with real life problems.
30. What may be the best title for the passage?
A. Will Cognitive Training Enjoy Lasting Popularity?
B. Can Working-memory Training Make You Smarter?
C. Why Is Working-memory Training of Little Use?
D. Would You Develop A Skill Through Cognitive Training?
【答案】27. A 28. C 29. C 30. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要探讨通过工作记忆培训能否使你变得更聪明这个问题。作者在文章中陈述了对于此问题的不同观点，并通过分析以前的一些研究报告得出结论：工作记忆训练会让你训练的那一方面有所提高，但不会使你变得更聪明。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs—which typically focus on training our working memory—are a multibillion-dollar industry. (我们都希望提高我们的认知能力，超越大自然设定的限制。因此，难怪大脑训练计划——通常专注于训练我们的工作记忆——是一个价值数十亿美元的产业。)”可以推测出认知训练给培训公司带来很大的利益，故答案为A。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training we could find with normally developing children: 26 experiments and 1,601 total participants.(为了验证这一假设，我们检查了我们能找到的所有关于正常发育儿童的工作记忆训练的研究：26个实验，共有1601名参与者。)”可知作者为了弄清楚工作记忆训练的效果，重新核查了能够找到的以前的研究。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The results were very clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on children’s fluid intelligence—a person’s ability to solve new problems and adapt to new situations. It didn’t influence their academic achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only reliable effect was that children got better at what they trained to do. Nonetheless, the fact that participants got better at working-memory tasks does not necessarily mean that their working-memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that particular type of task.(结果非常明显。工作记忆训练对儿童的流动智力——一个人解决新问题和适应新环境的能力——没有显示出任何影响。这也不会影响他们的学业成就或其他认知能力。唯一可靠的结果是，孩子们在他们训练做的事情上做得更好。尽管如此，参与者在工作记忆任务方面做得更好并不一定意味着他们的工作记忆能力提高了。他们可能只是学会了如何执行这种特定类型的任务。)”可知孩子们在他们所接受训练的领域表现得更好。故选C。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段“We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs – which typically focus on training our working memory—are a multibillion-dollar industry. But can this kind of training really improve your intelligence?(我们都想提高自己的认知能力(认知的)，超越自然母亲设定的极限。因此，大脑训练项目——通常专注于训练我们的工作记忆——是一个数十亿美元的产业也就不足为奇了。但是这种训练真的能提高你的智力吗？)”提出了问题：工作记忆培训真的能提高你的智力吗？文章下文阐述了人们对于工作记忆训练能否提高认知能力的不同观点，通过分析研究能够找到的以前的研究成果来弄清楚工作记忆训练的效果，并得出结论：工作记忆不能使人变得更聪明。所以B选项“Can Working-memory Training Make You Smarter?(工作记忆训练能让你更聪明吗?)”可以概括全文，适合作为文章标题。故选B。

【答案】31 E 32. B 33. F 34. G 35. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。讲述了我们应对焦虑的一些策略和方法。
【详解】1.根据前文“Stress can improve your work performance, think more quickly and more efficiently. ”（压力可以提高你的工作表现，思考更快更有效率。）提到了压力在生活中带给我们的好处。下文“These high levels of stress and anxiety have harmful effects on both your mental health and your performance. ”（这些高水平的压力和焦虑对你的心理健康和表现都有害。）讲到了压力和焦虑过大会对健康带来害处。所以空白处应为承上启下的作用。与前文表示转折，开启下文的话题，即压力有时还是会对健康带来害处的。选项E.“That being said, sometimes stress can turn into anxiety, which is overwhelming.”（话虽如此，有时候压力会转化为焦虑，这是不可抗拒的。）与文意相符，故选E。
2.根据前文“Simply being aware of what is causing your anxiety can help to lessen the effects. Try to take some time to reflect on what could be causing your anxiety.”（只要知道是什么引起你的焦虑，可以帮助减轻影响。花点时间想想是什么导致了你的焦虑。）说明了找到引起焦虑的原因可以帮助减轻其带来的影响。所以下文应该陈述一旦找到焦虑的原因后，会带来什么结果。选项B.“Once you address the causes, it puts you in a better position to treat it.”（一旦你解决了病因，你就能更好地治疗它。）与前文逻辑一致，符合题意，故选B。
3.根据前文“For example, if you're someone that tends to be a bit of a perfectionist, you might experience higher levels of exam anxiety.”（例如，如果你是一个有点完美主义的人，你可能会经历更高程度的考试焦虑。）列举了会带来更大焦虑的一个情景，因而下文应该承接前文讲述这种焦虑对你而言的意义。选项F.“This often means you set yourself up for failure or disappointment, due to the fear of never feeling "good enough".”（这通常意味着你将自己置于失败或失望之中，因为你害怕自己永远不会觉得“足够好”。）符号逻辑，故选F。
4.根据前文“Most of the time, the key to reducing exam anxiety is making full preparations. Make an early start on your revision. Starting 6 weeks before the exam is usually recommended. ”（大多数时候，减少考试焦虑的关键是做好充分的准备。早点开始复习。通常建议在考试前6周开始。）提到了减少焦虑的关键是做好充分的准备，同时列举了两个具体的方法。下文“Take enough time to do yourself justice.”（给自己足够的时间来审视自己。）说明我们要根据自己的实际情形来安排。所以空白处应该讲述充分准备也是分情况而定的。选项G.“But this can change depending on where you feel you are in your studies and the study level.”（但这可能会因为你在学习中的感觉和学习水平而改变。）与文意相符，故选G。
5.根据下文“Studying constantly will make you worn out, and you may even feel burnt out long before you even get the chance to sit the exam. Make sure that you have at least one day off from revision a week.”（不停地学习会让你筋疲力尽，甚至在你有机会参加考试之前，你就会感到筋疲力尽。确保每周至少有一天不用复习。）提到我们在学习疲惫的同时也要注意休息，即要劳逸结合。所以空白处应总说我们也不能忽略照顾自己的健康。选项C.“Also, try not to neglect your self-care.”（而且，不要忽视你的自我照顾。）符合题意，故选C。

79. more complex

85. to be
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了陕西的美食——biangbiang面的起源及发展。
【详解】1.考查副词。句意：中国的biangbiang面风靡世界，但是这道菜的名字并不正式存在。动词exist(存在)应用副词officially来修饰，意为“正式地”，故填officially。
2.考查固定句型。句意：在中国陕西省省会西安——中国最古老的城市之一，拉面被摔打，然后如此地缠来缠去，以至于拉面摔打产生的噪声最终激发人们，给这道菜起了一个奇特名字：biangbiang面。“So+形容词/副词+that+句子”是固定句型，表示“如此......以至于”，故填that。
3.考查时态和语态。句意：拟声词“biang”意在模仿面粉和水混合撞击面板而产生的声音。分析句子结构可知，空处做谓语，根据句意可知，此处表示“有意在......”，mean to do，表示“有意做某事”，但主语是人，该句中主语是The onomatopoeic (拟声的) "biang" character，指物，所以应用被动语态，且句子描述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，所以空处应用一般现在时的被动，主语The onomatopoeic (拟声的) "biang" character是第三人称单数，所以应用is meant，故填is meant。
4.考查形容词比较级。句意：它的书写比中文里的任何一个字都要复杂。由后面的than可知，此处应用形容词complex(复杂的)的比较级more complex，故填more complex。
5.考查冠词。句意：在过去的几个世纪里，陕西的biangbiang面只不过是一道普通的地方菜。空后的名词dish，意为“菜肴”是可数名词，且此处表示“一道菜”，所以应用不定冠词来修饰，humble(没有特别之处的)发音不是以元音音素开头，应用a而非an，故填a。
6.考查名词单复数。句意：与其他西北面条种类相比，biangbiang面在西安以外的地方鲜为人知，但在当地人心目中，biangbiang面是一种令人欣慰的美食，对他们来说，biangbiang面背后的故事和汉子的书写都是常识。此处应用名词variety做Compared to(与......作比较)的宾语，表示“种类”，是可数名词，且由前面的other可知，此处表示“其他的面条种类”，不只一种，应用variety的复数形式varieties，故填varieties。
7.考查连词。句意：与其他西北面条种类相比，biangbiang面在西安以外的地方鲜为人知，但在当地人心目中，biangbiang面是一种令人欣慰的美食，对他们来说，biangbiang面背后的故事和汉子的书写都是常识。空前句子“biang biang were less known outside of Xi’an”(biangbiang面在西安以外的地方鲜为人知)和空后句子“they were a comforting and beloved food among locals”(在当地人心目中，biangbiang面是一种令人欣慰的美食)前后是转折关系，应用表示转折关系的连词but或yet，故填but或yet。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意：近年来，biangbiang面及其相关习俗在中国越来越广为人知，部分原因是社交媒体对杜撰的biang字感兴趣。分析句子结构可知，空处是非谓语动词，用来补充说明前面这个句子，其逻辑主语是前面的整个句子，即“近年来，biangbiang面及其相关习俗在中国越来越广为人知”，且动词drive(驱动)和前面这个句子是被动关系，所以此处应用drive过去分词形式driven，故填driven。
9.考查介词。句意：现在，这道菜正从它刚开始的普普通通到现在传递到世界各地食客的心中和口中——这是一个很多人都没有预料到且令人愉快的一个重大突破。From...to是固定搭配，表示“从......到......”，故填to。
10.考查非谓语动词。句意：现在，这道菜正从它刚开始的普通到现在传递到世界各地食客的心中和口中——这是一个很多人都没有预料到且令人愉快的一个重大突破。Expect to do是固定搭配，表示“预计做某事”，故填to be。

二、单项选择(共 15小题，每小题1分，满分 15分)
1. The managers discussed the plan that they would like to see ________ out next year.
A. carry B. to be carried C. to carry D. carried
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：经理们讨论了明年他们想要看到实施的那项计划。that they would like to see ________ out the next year是定语从句修饰先行词plan，先行词在从句中作see的宾语，carry out作宾语补足语，与宾语plan是动宾关系，即计划被执行，应该用过去分词形式表示被动，并作宾补，故选D。
2. ________ brought them to the public’s attention was that they were condemned ________ in some illegal business practices to obtain their current position in the market.
A. Which; to be involved B. That; to involve
C. What; to be involved D. That; to be involved
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查主语从句和固定短语。句意：让他们引起公众注意的是，他们被判参与一些非法的商业活动，以获得目前的市场地位。A. Which哪一个； to be involved参与；B. That那个； to involve参与；C. What什么；to be involved参与；D. That那个；to be involved参与。分析句子可知，第一个设空处引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，意为“……的东西、什么”，应用连接代词what引导；短语involve sb. in，意为“使某人参与”，设空处在句中作非谓语，和逻辑主语they构成被动关系，用be involved in，condemn sb. to do sth.判某人做某事，故设空处应用不定式的被动结构，故选C。
3. ________ is known to all that the outstanding academic atmosphere, as well as various festivals and sports, ________ many students to our school.
A. It; draws B. Which; draw C. What; draws D. As; draw
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句型和主谓一致。句意：众所周知，我们学校优秀的学术氛围，以及各种节日和体育活动吸引了许多学生来我校。分析句子可知，第一空为固定句型it is known to sb. that...“众所周知……”，it是形式主语，that引导主语从句，而此空应填形式主语It；第二空考查主谓一致，主语后跟as well as等附属成分时，谓语动词的数要与前面的主语保持一致，主语atmosphere为不可数名词，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故选A项。
4. My neighbour Sana is always sheltering her child too much, and that’s ____we differ.
A. when B. what C. how D. where
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查表语从句连接词。句意：我的邻居Sana总是庇护她的孩子太多，这是我们的不同之处。此处为表语从句，从句中缺少地点状语，应用关系副词where。故选D。
【点睛】名词性从句关键在于三点：
一、找准从句在主句中充当的成分即分出是名词性从句的主语句、宾语从句、表语从句还是同位语从句；
二、连接词从句中充当的成分（主、宾、定或状语或不做任何成分）；
三、弄清楚每个连接词的意义。此外还要注意，近年来高考对于名词性从句的考查多从名词性从句的语序和连接词的用法区别上考查。
5. ________ to the virus during the college entrance examination was the reason ________ he couldn't be admitted to the key university.
A. Being exposed; why B. Exposed; that
C Being exposed; that D. Exposed; because
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词和定语从句。句意：在高考期间接触病毒是他不能被重点大学录取的原因。分析句子结构可知，句中缺少主语，所以用动名词作主语。第二空考查定语从句，句中先行词为reason，在定语从句中作原因状语，所以用关系副词why引导。故选A。
6. Since ________ your classmates can solve this math problem, you’d better turn to your math teacher for help.
A. all B. not all C. none of D. both
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查代词词义辨析。句意：既然你的同学没有一个能解出这道数学题，你最好向你的数学老师求助。A. all全部；B. not all并不是所有的；C. none of都不；D. both两者。根据“you’d better turn to your math teacher for help.”可知，没有同学能解出这道数学题。故选C。
7. It is demanded that every student in Zhixin High School ________ themselves to studying.
A. devotes B. devoted C. is devoted D. devote
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意：志新中学要求每个学生都要全身心地投入到学习中去。表达“投身于……，投入”用devote oneself to...，It is demanded that… 要求……，这种结构的主语从句中，谓语动词用“should + 动词原形”，should可以省略。故选D。
8. No matter how frequently ________ in the Louvre in Paris, the masterpieces of Pablo Picasso always attract a large number of audience.
A. display B. displayed C. displays D. are displayed
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查让步状语从句的省略。句意：无论巴勃罗·毕加索的杰作在巴黎卢浮宫多么频繁地展出，它们总能吸引大批观众。A. display展示；B. displayed展示；C. displays展示；D. are displayed被展示。在让步，时间等状语从句中，如果主从句中主语一致，从句中谓语含be动词，可以将从句中的主语和be省略，即从句原句为：No matter how frequently (the masterpieces of Pablo Picasso are) displayed in the Louvre in Paris可知，此处省略从句的主语和be动词，用过去分词表被动。故选B。
9. __________many times, the naughty boy still made the same mistake.
A. He had been told B. Having been told C. To be told D. Having told
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：虽然被告诉了很多次，这个淘气的男孩还是犯了同样的错误。句中逻辑主语the naughty boy 与tell之间为被动关系，且与 made the same mistake存在先后关系，所以用现在分词的完成被动式作状语。故选B。
10. ________ to the dancing practice resulted in ________.
A. Spencer’s not coming; his being punished
B. Not Spencer’s coming; his being punished
C. Spencer did not come; him punished
D. Spencer not coming; his to be punished
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：斯宾塞不来参加舞蹈训练导致他受到了惩罚。第一空为动名词的复合结构：名词所有格+动名词，作主语，否定词在所有格之后；第二空动名词作宾语，且punish与Spencer 构成被动关系，应用being done形式。故选A。
11. All approaches you thought the problem are very reasonable.
A. of solving B. to solve C. of to solving D. to solving
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语。句意：你为解决这个问题所想到的办法都很合理。句中“想到，考虑到”的宾语是名词approaches，要用think of。“做某事的方法”是the approach to doing sth，综上，故选C。
12. Mr. Frank asked me a question ________ I could go with him to ________ he called the Treasure House the next week.
A. that; which B. whether; what C. whether; that D. that; where
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查连词。句意：Frank先生问我下周是否能跟他一起去所谓的藏宝室的地方。根据句子分析可知，第一个从句“___ I could go with him”为a question的同位语从句，句子不缺成分，意思为“是否”，故用whether引导。第二个从句“___ he called the Treasure House”做介词to的宾语从句，从句缺call的直接宾语，意为“什么”，故用what引导宾语从句，并在从句中做宾语。故选B。
13. It is high time that the world ________ the importance of cooperation.
A. realized B. would realize C. realize D. will realize
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气和时态。句意：现在是世界认识到合作的重要性的时候了。It is high time that....表示“是该做某事的时候了”，从句谓语用一般过去时或“should+动词原形”，should不能省略。故选A 。
14. ________ finishes the homework carefully will have good grades.
A. No matter what B. Whatever
C. No matter who D. Whoever
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查主语从句的引导词。句意：谁认真完成作业，谁就会取得好成绩。A. No matter what无论什么；B. Whatever无论什么；C. No matter who无论谁；D. Whoever无论谁。分析句子的结构可知，设空处引导主语从句，且在句中作主语表示“无论谁”；no matter作“不管，无论”讲，后接what/who/when等词，引导让步状语从句；而 whoever和whatever既可引导让步状语从句，还可引导主语从句、宾语从句等，表示“无论谁”应用whoever。故选D。
15. The officer claimed ________ the proof ________ he cheated in the recent elections.
A. to find; why B. to have found; that C. having found; which D. to find; that
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查不定式的完成式和同位语从句。句意：这位官员声称已经找到了他在最近选举中作弊的证据。claim to do (声称要做)，该用法是固定用法，“发现”的动作早于“宣称”，用不定式的完成式；________ he cheated in the recent elections是同位语从句修饰名词proof，引导词在从句中不作任何成分，也没有实际意义，用that引导该从句。故选B。
三、阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)
第一节 (共 15小题，每小题2分，满分 30分)

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。短文介绍了关于旅客乘坐飞机携带物品的一些安全须知以及收费标准。
【16题详解】
细节理解题。由Bag Fees中的“Overweight Bags heavier than 10 kilos ¥100 per kilo over limit(超过10千克的包，每超过一千克，收费100元)”可知，一个110厘米x50厘米x25厘米、重13公斤的随身包，乘客要支付3×100=300。而包的尺寸并没有超过图表中所给出的尺寸“110cmX60cmX30cm”，所以不收费。故只收取超重的3千克的费用，即300元。故选C。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。由Note中的“If you have any liquid medicines over 100ml that you must use during your flight, please contact our customer service manager on 34533566 to make arrangements at least 24 hours before your departure.(如果您有超过100毫升的液体药品必须在飞行途中使用，请至少在起飞前24小时致电34533566联系我们的客户服务经理安排)”可知，乘客至少在他们起飞前一天联系经理，说明一下在飞机上要携带100毫升以上的药水。故选C。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。由Safety Rules中“For the safety of our passengers, the following items must not be taken onto the plane: —Bottles containing gas (e.g. cigarette lighter)(为了本公司乘客的安全，以下物品不得携带上飞机：——装有气体的瓶子（如打火机）)”可知，气瓶不允许乘客带上飞机。故选D。
B
At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves learning-disabled children, the father of one student delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by those who attended. He began with a question. “Everything God does is done with perfection. Yet, my son, Shay, cannot learn and understand things as other children do. Where is God’s plan reflected in my son?”
The audience was stilled by the question. The father continued, “I believe that when God brings a childlike Shay into the world, an opportunity to realize the Divine Plan presents itself. And it comes in the way people treat that child.”
Then he told the following story:
Shay and I walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked, “Do you think they will let me play?”
I knew that most boys would not want him on their team. Shay didn’t even know how to hold the bat properly much less connect with the ball. So I approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance from his teammates. Getting none, he took matters into his own hands and said, “We are losing by six runs. The game is in the eighth inning. He can be on our team and we will try to put him up to bat in the ninth inning.”
In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. At the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the outfield.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay’s team scored again. They had the potential to win. Would the team actually let Shay bat at this juncture and give away their chance to win the game?
Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. At last, understanding what the boy’s intentions had been, the boys from both teams helped Shay win the game for the team and Shay was cheered as the hero.
“That day,” said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, “the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of the Divine Plan into this world.”
19. Why did the father think most of the boys wouldn’t let Shay join them?
A. Because it was an important game and they couldn’t afford to lose it.
B. Because they knew Shay was physically disabled.
C. Because they knew Shay was anything but good at playing baseball.
D. Because they didn’t get along well with Shay.
20. The sentence “Although no hits came his way, he was obviously very happy just to be on the field.” should be put at the end of ________.
A. Paragraph 5 B. Paragraph 6 C. Paragraph 8 D. Paragraph 9
21. The underlined word “juncture” can be explained by ________.
A. a dilemma B. a particular place
C. an important point D. a critical game
22. Which of the following best describes the father’s feeling in telling the story?
A. Optimistic. B. Excited. C. Regretful. D. Grateful.
【答案】19. C 20. B 21. C 22. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。Shay不能像其他孩子一样学习和理解事物，他的父亲讲述了他们在公园时男孩们邀请Shay参加棒球比赛的故事。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“I knew that most boys would not want him on their team. Shay didn’t even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball.(我知道大多数男孩都不希望他加入他们的队伍。夏伊甚至不知道如何正确地握球棒，更不用说击球了)”可知，父亲认为大多数男孩不会让夏伊加入他们是因为他们知道夏伊根本不擅长打棒球。故选C。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. At the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the outfield.(在第八局下半部分，夏伊的球队得到了几分，但仍然落后3分。第九局结束时，夏伊戴上手套，在外场打球)”可推知，夏伊上场了，故句子“虽然没有命中，但他显然很高兴能在球场上”应该放在第六段结尾。故选B。
【21题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“They had the potential to win. Would the team actually let Shay bat at this”以及后文“and give away their chance to win the game?”可知，球队有获胜的潜力，球队真的会让夏伊在这个关键时刻击球而放弃赢得比赛的机会吗？故画线词意思是“关键时刻”。故选C。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““That day,” said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, “the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of the Divine Plan into this world.”(“那一天，”父亲轻声说，眼泪从他的脸上滚落下来，“两队的男孩帮助把神圣计划的一部分带到这个世界上。”)”可推知，父亲在讲故事的时候觉得很感激，感激那些男孩让夏伊感受到了一份人性的真爱。故选D。
C
Junk food is everywhere. We’re eating way too much of it. Most of us know what we’re doing and yet we do it anyway.
So here’s a suggestion offered by two researchers at the Rand Corporation: Why not take a lesson from alcohol control policies and apply them to where food is sold and how it’s displayed?
“Many policy measures to control obesity (肥胖症) assume that people consciously and rationally choose what and how much they eat and therefore focus on providing information and more access to healthier foods,” note the two researchers.
“In contrast,” the researchers continue, “many regulations that don’t assume people make rational choices have been successfully applied to control alcohol, a substance - like food - of which immoderate (过度) consumption leads to serious health problems.”
The research references studies of people’s behavior with food and alcohol and results of alcohol restrictions, and then lists five regulations that the researchers think might be promising if applied to junk foods. Among them:
Density restrictions: licenses to sell alcohol aren’t handed out unplanned to all comers but are allotted (分配) based on the number of places in an area that already sell alcohol. These make alcohol less easy to get and reduce the number of psychological cues to drink.
Similarly, the researchers say, being presented with junk food stimulates our desire to eat it. So why not limit the density of food outlets, particularly ones that sell food rich in empty calories? And why not limit sale of food in places that aren’t primarily food stores?
Display and sales restrictions: California has a rule prohibiting alcohol displays near the cash registers in gas stations, and in most places you can’t buy alcohol at drive-through facilities. At supermarkets, food companies pay to have their wares in places where they’re easily seen. One could remove junk food to the back of the store and ban them from the shelves at checkout lines. The other measures include restricting portion sizes, taxing and prohibiting special price deals for junk foods, and placing warning labels on the products.
23. What does the author say about junk food?
A. People should be educated not to eat too much.
B. It is widely consumed despite strict policies.
C. Its temptation is too strong for people to resist.
D. It causes more harm than is generally realized.
24. What is the general guideline the Rand researchers suggest about junk food control?
A. Guiding people to make rational choices about food.
B. Enhancing people’s awareness of their own health.
C. Borrowing ideas from alcohol control measures.
D. Resorting to economic, legal and psychological means.
25. What do the Rand researchers think of many of the policy measures to control obesity?
A. They are based on wrong assumptions.
B. They provide misleading information.
C. They should be implemented effectively.
D. They help people make rational choices.
26. Why do policymakers of alcohol control place density restrictions?
A. Few people are able to resist alcohol’s temptations.
B. There are already too many stores selling alcohol.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Rand公司两位研究人员的建议：借鉴控酒措施的经验，对售卖此类垃圾食品的地点和方式进行控制。文中具体介绍了这么做的原因以及一些具体条例。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Junk food is everywhere. We’re eating way too much of it. Most of us know what we’re doing and yet we do it anyway. (垃圾食品到处都是。我们吃得太多了。我们大多数人都知道自己在做什么，但还是会去做。)”可推断，垃圾食品对人们的诱惑实在是太强了，以至于人们无法抵挡。故选C。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“So here’s a suggestion offered by two researchers at the Rand Corporation: Why not take a lesson from alcohol control policies and apply them to where food is sold and how it’s displayed? (因此，兰德公司的两位研究人员提出了一个建议：为什么不从酒精控制政策中吸取教训，把它们应用到食品的销售地点和展示方式上呢?)”可知，兰德公司的研究人员对垃圾食品的控制提出的总体指导意见是：借鉴酒精控制措施。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Many policy measures to control obesity (肥胖症) assume that people consciously and rationally choose what and how much they eat (许多控制肥胖的政策措施都假设人们有意识地、理性地选择他们吃什么和吃多少)”可推断，很多控制肥胖症的政策措施都是基于错误的假设前提的。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“These make alcohol less easy to get and reduce the number of psychological cues to drink. (这使得酒精不那么容易得到，也减少了喝酒的心理暗示。)”可推断，因为购买的途径很容易的话会导致消费者过度消费。所以要颁布这样一项限制措施，就是为了减少人们购买酒类饮品的数量。故选D。
D
We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs—which typically focus on training our working memory—are a multibillion-dollar industry. But can this kind of training really improve your intelligence?
Cognitive training sees the brain as a kind of muscle that can be made stronger with the right kind of practice. It consists of tasks or games carried out on computers or smart phones. Despite much research, there has so far been no agreement about its effectiveness. Some think that cognitive training increases a broad range of cognitive abilities, while others less optimistic.
Yet we do know that some cognitive skills, such as working memory and intelligence, tend to go together and are predictors of real-life skills such as work performance. Thus, training one cognitive skill might lead to an improvement in many other cognitive and non-cognitive skills. That is exactly the underlying hypothesis(假设) on which working-memory training is based.
To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training we could find with normally developing children: 26 experiments and 1,601 total participants. Children represent an ideal test group: during childhood, skills are still at the beginning of their development. Thus, cognitive training is more likely to succeed with children than adults.
The results were very clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on children’s fluid intelligence—a person’s ability to solve new problems and adapt to new situations. It didn’t influence their academic achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only reliable effect was that children got better at what they trained to do. Nonetheless, the fact that participants got better at working-memory tasks does not necessarily mean that their working-memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that particular type of task.
The results do indicate that the use of working-memory training programs as an educational tool is fruitless. However, the results must not discourage us from training our cognitive and non-cognitive skills. We just have to be aware of the actual limitations of such practice in areas outside what we are actually training. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it—the most efficient way to develop a skill is, after all, to train that skill.
27. What is the benefit of cognitive training according to the passage?
A. It brings much profit to the training companies.
B. It makes one’s brain stronger through practice.
C. It uncovers the secrets of how human brains work.
D. It earns a good reputation for the training company.
28. How did the author find out the effects of working memory training?
A. By conducting several scientific experiments.
B. By comparing test groups of different ages.
C. By reviewing the available previous researches.
D. By interviewing normally developing children.
29. Which of the following shows the effects of the experiments on children?
A. They tend to gain greater academic achievements.
B. They are able to adapt to new situations more quickly.
C. They can perform better in the field they are trained in.
D. They are likely to succeed in dealing with real life problems.
30. What may be the best title for the passage?
A. Will Cognitive Training Enjoy Lasting Popularity?
B. Can Working-memory Training Make You Smarter?
C. Why Is Working-memory Training of Little Use?
D. Would You Develop A Skill Through Cognitive Training?
【答案】27. A 28. C 29. C 30. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要探讨通过工作记忆培训能否使你变得更聪明这个问题。作者在文章中陈述了对于此问题的不同观点，并通过分析以前的一些研究报告得出结论：工作记忆训练会让你训练的那一方面有所提高，但不会使你变得更聪明。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs—which typically focus on training our working memory—are a multibillion-dollar industry. (我们都希望提高我们的认知能力，超越大自然设定的限制。因此，难怪大脑训练计划——通常专注于训练我们的工作记忆——是一个价值数十亿美元的产业。)”可以推测出认知训练给培训公司带来很大的利益，故答案为A。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training we could find with normally developing children: 26 experiments and 1,601 total participants.(为了验证这一假设，我们检查了我们能找到的所有关于正常发育儿童的工作记忆训练的研究：26个实验，共有1601名参与者。)”可知作者为了弄清楚工作记忆训练的效果，重新核查了能够找到的以前的研究。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The results were very clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on children’s fluid intelligence—a person’s ability to solve new problems and adapt to new situations. It didn’t influence their academic achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only reliable effect was that children got better at what they trained to do. Nonetheless, the fact that participants got better at working-memory tasks does not necessarily mean that their working-memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that particular type of task.(结果非常明显。工作记忆训练对儿童的流动智力——一个人解决新问题和适应新环境的能力——没有显示出任何影响。这也不会影响他们的学业成就或其他认知能力。唯一可靠的结果是，孩子们在他们训练做的事情上做得更好。尽管如此，参与者在工作记忆任务方面做得更好并不一定意味着他们的工作记忆能力提高了。他们可能只是学会了如何执行这种特定类型的任务。)”可知孩子们在他们所接受训练的领域表现得更好。故选C。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段“We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs – which typically focus on training our working memory—are a multibillion-dollar industry. But can this kind of training really improve your intelligence?(我们都想提高自己的认知能力(认知的)，超越自然母亲设定的极限。因此，大脑训练项目——通常专注于训练我们的工作记忆——是一个数十亿美元的产业也就不足为奇了。但是这种训练真的能提高你的智力吗？)”提出了问题：工作记忆培训真的能提高你的智力吗？文章下文阐述了人们对于工作记忆训练能否提高认知能力的不同观点，通过分析研究能够找到的以前的研究成果来弄清楚工作记忆训练的效果，并得出结论：工作记忆不能使人变得更聪明。所以B选项“Can Working-memory Training Make You Smarter?(工作记忆训练能让你更聪明吗?)”可以概括全文，适合作为文章标题。故选B。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。讲述了我们应对焦虑的一些策略和方法。
【详解】1.根据前文“Stress can improve your work performance, think more quickly and more efficiently. ”（压力可以提高你的工作表现，思考更快更有效率。）提到了压力在生活中带给我们的好处。下文“These high levels of stress and anxiety have harmful effects on both your mental health and your performance. ”（这些高水平的压力和焦虑对你的心理健康和表现都有害。）讲到了压力和焦虑过大会对健康带来害处。所以空白处应为承上启下的作用。与前文表示转折，开启下文的话题，即压力有时还是会对健康带来害处的。选项E.“That being said, sometimes stress can turn into anxiety, which is overwhelming.”（话虽如此，有时候压力会转化为焦虑，这是不可抗拒的。）与文意相符，故选E。
2.根据前文“Simply being aware of what is causing your anxiety can help to lessen the effects. Try to take some time to reflect on what could be causing your anxiety.”（只要知道是什么引起你的焦虑，可以帮助减轻影响。花点时间想想是什么导致了你的焦虑。）说明了找到引起焦虑的原因可以帮助减轻其带来的影响。所以下文应该陈述一旦找到焦虑的原因后，会带来什么结果。选项B.“Once you address the causes, it puts you in a better position to treat it.”（一旦你解决了病因，你就能更好地治疗它。）与前文逻辑一致，符合题意，故选B。
3.根据前文“For example, if you're someone that tends to be a bit of a perfectionist, you might experience higher levels of exam anxiety.”（例如，如果你是一个有点完美主义的人，你可能会经历更高程度的考试焦虑。）列举了会带来更大焦虑的一个情景，因而下文应该承接前文讲述这种焦虑对你而言的意义。选项F.“This often means you set yourself up for failure or disappointment, due to the fear of never feeling "good enough".”（这通常意味着你将自己置于失败或失望之中，因为你害怕自己永远不会觉得“足够好”。）符号逻辑，故选F。
4.根据前文“Most of the time, the key to reducing exam anxiety is making full preparations. Make an early start on your revision. Starting 6 weeks before the exam is usually recommended. ”（大多数时候，减少考试焦虑的关键是做好充分的准备。早点开始复习。通常建议在考试前6周开始。）提到了减少焦虑的关键是做好充分的准备，同时列举了两个具体的方法。下文“Take enough time to do yourself justice.”（给自己足够的时间来审视自己。）说明我们要根据自己的实际情形来安排。所以空白处应该讲述充分准备也是分情况而定的。选项G.“But this can change depending on where you feel you are in your studies and the study level.”（但这可能会因为你在学习中的感觉和学习水平而改变。）与文意相符，故选G。
5.根据下文“Studying constantly will make you worn out, and you may even feel burnt out long before you even get the chance to sit the exam. Make sure that you have at least one day off from revision a week.”（不停地学习会让你筋疲力尽，甚至在你有机会参加考试之前，你就会感到筋疲力尽。确保每周至少有一天不用复习。）提到我们在学习疲惫的同时也要注意休息，即要劳逸结合。所以空白处应总说我们也不能忽略照顾自己的健康。选项C.“Also, try not to neglect your self-care.”（而且，不要忽视你的自我照顾。）符合题意，故选C。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了陕西的美食——biangbiang面的起源及发展。
【详解】1.考查副词。句意：中国的biangbiang面风靡世界，但是这道菜的名字并不正式存在。动词exist(存在)应用副词officially来修饰，意为“正式地”，故填officially。
2.考查固定句型。句意：在中国陕西省省会西安——中国最古老的城市之一，拉面被摔打，然后如此地缠来缠去，以至于拉面摔打产生的噪声最终激发人们，给这道菜起了一个奇特名字：biangbiang面。“So+形容词/副词+that+句子”是固定句型，表示“如此......以至于”，故填that。
3.考查时态和语态。句意：拟声词“biang”意在模仿面粉和水混合撞击面板而产生的声音。分析句子结构可知，空处做谓语，根据句意可知，此处表示“有意在......”，mean to do，表示“有意做某事”，但主语是人，该句中主语是The onomatopoeic (拟声的) "biang" character，指物，所以应用被动语态，且句子描述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，所以空处应用一般现在时的被动，主语The onomatopoeic (拟声的) "biang" character是第三人称单数，所以应用is meant，故填is meant。
4.考查形容词比较级。句意：它的书写比中文里的任何一个字都要复杂。由后面的than可知，此处应用形容词complex(复杂的)的比较级more complex，故填more complex。
5.考查冠词。句意：在过去的几个世纪里，陕西的biangbiang面只不过是一道普通的地方菜。空后的名词dish，意为“菜肴”是可数名词，且此处表示“一道菜”，所以应用不定冠词来修饰，humble(没有特别之处的)发音不是以元音音素开头，应用a而非an，故填a。
6.考查名词单复数。句意：与其他西北面条种类相比，biangbiang面在西安以外的地方鲜为人知，但在当地人心目中，biangbiang面是一种令人欣慰的美食，对他们来说，biangbiang面背后的故事和汉子的书写都是常识。此处应用名词variety做Compared to(与......作比较)的宾语，表示“种类”，是可数名词，且由前面的other可知，此处表示“其他的面条种类”，不只一种，应用variety的复数形式varieties，故填varieties。
7.考查连词。句意：与其他西北面条种类相比，biangbiang面在西安以外的地方鲜为人知，但在当地人心目中，biangbiang面是一种令人欣慰的美食，对他们来说，biangbiang面背后的故事和汉子的书写都是常识。空前句子“biang biang were less known outside of Xi’an”(biangbiang面在西安以外的地方鲜为人知)和空后句子“they were a comforting and beloved food among locals”(在当地人心目中，biangbiang面是一种令人欣慰的美食)前后是转折关系，应用表示转折关系的连词but或yet，故填but或yet。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意：近年来，biangbiang面及其相关习俗在中国越来越广为人知，部分原因是社交媒体对杜撰的biang字感兴趣。分析句子结构可知，空处是非谓语动词，用来补充说明前面这个句子，其逻辑主语是前面的整个句子，即“近年来，biangbiang面及其相关习俗在中国越来越广为人知”，且动词drive(驱动)和前面这个句子是被动关系，所以此处应用drive过去分词形式driven，故填driven。
9.考查介词。句意：现在，这道菜正从它刚开始的普普通通到现在传递到世界各地食客的心中和口中——这是一个很多人都没有预料到且令人愉快的一个重大突破。From...to是固定搭配，表示“从......到......”，故填to。
10.考查非谓语动词。句意：现在，这道菜正从它刚开始的普通到现在传递到世界各地食客的心中和口中——这是一个很多人都没有预料到且令人愉快的一个重大突破。Expect to do是固定搭配，表示“预计做某事”，故填to be。
