M: Miss Dermott, let me start by asking you this question: Do you think, within a few years, people could work at home instead of working in offices?
W: Oh, yes. It's already happening. The communication industry has made a lot of progress in the last ten years.
M: And how do these people work? I mean, what equipment do they need to have at home?
W: Well, they need a monitor, a computer, a printer, and a telephone to connect with other computers.
M: Oh, I see. So what are some advantages of working at home?
W: Working at home, people don't have to spend a lot of time getting to and from their work places. The rush hours, as everyone knows, are the worst times of day to travel. Millions of people have to get up early to avoid the rush hours.
M: Ah, I see. What do you think the future will be like for homeworkers?
W: Oh, let me tell you what might happen. In the future a British firm in London, for example, might employ clerks in Belfast, or a Paris company could have their secretaries in Spain. Most business could be done by telephone.

第二部分 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)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
[2013·四川双流中学高二入学考试]Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal，usually the male, claims as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he's screaming (高声尖叫) all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird's song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs. You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has something to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
本文通过与人类的对比，讲述了鸟的叫声存在着不同的含义。
21. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds' singing is actually________.
A. an expression of happiness
B. a way of warning
C. an expression of anger
D. a language of their own
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第二段However，they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.可知答案为B。
22. What is a bird's “territory”？
A. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
B. A place where other bird families are not accepted.
C. An area for which birds fight against each other.
D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第三段A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own.可知答案为D。
23. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?
A. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
B. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.
C. Because they want to find outsiders around.
D. Because they want to invite more bird friends.
答案：A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知，在筑巢期间它的叫声其实是在吓走外面的鸟。
24. How does the writer explain birds' singing?
A. By comparing birds with human beings.
B. By reporting experimental results.
C. By describing birds' daily life.
D. By telling a bird's story.
答案：A 写作手法题。通读全文我们不难看出，作者不断地把人类和鸟进行对比。
B
A Southampton University team found that people who were vegetarians by 30 had recorded five IQ points more on average at the age of 10. Researchers said it could explain why people with a higher IQ were healthier as a vegetarian diet was linked to lower heart disease and obesity (肥胖) rates. The study of 8,179 was reported in the British Medical Journal.
Twenty years after the IQ tests were carried out in 1970,366 of the participants said they were vegetarian－although more than 100 reported eating either fish or chicken.
Men who were vegetarian had an IQ score of 106, compared with 101 for non－vegetarians; while female vegetarians averaged 104, compared with 99 for non－vegetarians. There was no difference in the IQ score between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarian but reported eating fish or chicken.
Researchers said the findings were partly related to better education and higher class, but it remained statistically (统计地) significant after adjusting for these factors.
Vegetarians were more likely to be female, to be of higher social class and to have higher academic or professional qualifications than non－vegetarians. However, these differences were not reflected in their annual income, which was similar to that of non－vegetarians.
Lead researcher Catharine Gale said, “The findings that children with greater intelligence are more likely to report being vegetarians than adults, together with the evidence on the potential benefits of a vegetarian diet on heart health, may help to explain why a higher IQ in childhood or adolescence is linked with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease (冠心病) in adult life.”
But Dr. Frankie Phillips, of the British Dietetic Association, said: “It_is_like_the_chicken_and_the_egg. Do people become vegetarian because they have a very high IQ or is it just that they are clever enough to be more aware of health issues？”
一项科学研究发现：素食与高智商有关。
25. What's the result of the research mentioned in the text?
A. Intelligent children are more likely to become vegetarians later in life.
B. Children with a higher IQ are less likely to have heart disease later in life.
C. Intelligent children tend to belong to higher social class later in life.
D. Children with a healthier heart tend to have a higher IQ later in life.
答案：A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“people who were vegetarians by 30 had recorded five IQ points higher on average at the age of 10”知A项正确。根据“it could explain why...”可知这一结果可帮助解释B项中的现象，但B项并非这次研究的结果。故选A项。
26. It was found in the research that________.
A. most of the participants became vegetarians 20 years after the IQ tests were carried out
B. vegetarians who ate fish or chicken were of similar intelligence with strict vegetarians
C. female vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non－vegetarians
D. vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non－vegetarians
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“There was no difference in the IQ scores between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken”可知答案。
27. Catharine Gale talked about “being vegetarians” in a(n) ________way.
A. doubtful B. favorable
C. negative D. objective
答案：D 推理判断题。根据第六段可知Catharine Gale只是客观地讲述研究结果，并没有表示自己的立场。故选D项。
28. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A. Intelligence is linked to not just being a vegetarian but to many factors.
B. The rate of getting heart disease is linked to your lifestyle.
C. The link between a high IQ and being a vegetarian is still uncertain.
D. The link between a healthy heart and diet remains to be proved.
答案：C 推理判断题。文章最后一句的意思是：人们成为素食者是因为他们智商高还是因为他们足够聪明而更注意健康问题？由此可见Dr. Frankie Phillips认为素食和高智商的因果关系尚未明确，就像弄不清楚是因为有蛋才有鸡，还是因为有鸡才有蛋一样。故C项正确。
C
Healthy Habits, Healthy Body
Feeling tired lately? Has a doctor said he can't find anything wrong with you? Perhaps he sent you to a hospital, but all the advanced equipment there shows that there is nothing wrong with you.
Then, consider this: you might be in a state of subhealth(亚健康)．
Subhealth, also called the third state or gray state, is explained as a borderline state between health and disease.
According to the investigation (调查) by the National Health Organization, over 45 percent of subhealthy people are middle－aged or elderly. The percentage is even higher among people who work in management positions as well as students around exam time.
Symptoms (征兆) include a lack of energy, depression (压抑), slow reactions, insomnia (失眠), agitation (焦虑), and poor memory. Other symptoms include shortness of breath，sweating and aching in the waist and legs.
The key to preventing and recovering from subhealth, according to some medical experts, is to form good living habits, alternate work and rest, exercise regularly, and take part in open－air activities.
As for meals, people are advised to eat less salt and sugar. They should eat more fresh vegetables, fruits and fishes because they are rich in nutritional (营养的) elements－vitamins and trace elements (微量元素)－that are important to the body.
Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in the digestive tract(消化道). They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding subhealth.
本文介绍了什么是亚健康以及怎样预防亚健康。
29. According to this passage, which of the following is RIGHT?
A. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should stay at home and keep silent.
B. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should go to see a doctor and buy some medicine.
C. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should have yourself examined in foreign countries.
D. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should find out the reasons and relax yourself.
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第五、六段可知亚健康有很多征兆，要想阻止并从亚健康中恢复，关键是养成良好的生活习惯，平衡工作和休息，有规律锻炼，参加户外活动，这些都会使自己放松，故选D。
30. Middle－aged people may be easy to feel subhealthy because________.
A. they have used up their energy
B. they have lost their living hopes
C. they have more pressure in life and work
D. they begin to get older
答案：C 推理判断题。根据第四段的内容及常识可推知，中年人易处于亚健康状态是因为对他们而言来自生活和工作的压力较之其他人群更大。故选C。
31. The key to preventing you from falling into a state of subhealth is that you should________.
A. work hard
B. sleep more
C. form good living habits
D. take more medicine
答案：C 细节理解题。根据第六段“The key to preventing and recovering from subhealth...is to form good living habits...”可知答案为C。
32. As for food, experts suggested that________.
A. we should never eat meat
B. we should have meals with less salt and sugar
C. we should eat less than usual
D. we should have meals without salt and sugar
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第七段第一句可知答案选B。
D
[2013·云南昆明市高三质检] As I look back on my lifetime, I see the friends, neighbors, teachers and coaches who have meant so much to my development. I praise and admire each of them, but none could compare to my parents, from whom I learned lessons. The reason why they meant so much to me is that they carried out the lessons with care, kindness and love. I always knew that I was truly loved. They showed me their own footprints in this world and challenged me to pass the achievements they had achieved.
They taught me to be compassionate and caring to all I meet in life. One of the hardest lessons I had learned is that life isn't all about me. I need to make the most of the opportunities presented to make a difference to those I meet on life's pathway. When I stop, take the time to be still, and listen to my heart and spirit, I'm aware of my purpose in being here. It's not about my home, but do I care about the homeless? It's not about a beautiful lawn, but do I play ball with the kids and grandkids? It's not about how I take care of my body, but do I care about those in the nursing homes?
Be strong. Forgive those who have hurt you. Be brave and live for others. Don't wait for things to get better someday. Do something today. Use your talents to make the footprints in your life.
我们常说“父爱恩重如山，母爱情深似海”。作者在回忆自己的一生时，虽然感慨有很多人对自己的发展有影响，但是影响最大的还是自己的父母。父母曾经教诲作者要关爱生活中遇到的每一个人，要有一颗宽容的心，同时还要勇敢地生活。
33. According to the passage, the people who have influenced the writer most are his________.
A. friends B. neighbors
C. teachers D. parents
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第一段的第二句“I praise and admire each of them, but none could compare to my parents, from whom I learned lessons.”可知，对作者影响最大的人是他的父母。所以答案为D项。
34. The writer thinks that the purpose of his life is to ________.
A. try to succeed in his career
B. care for those around him
C. lead a rich and comfortable life
D. face challenges bravely
答案：B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的第一句和最后三句以及第三段中的“live for others”可知，作者认为他生活的目的是关心身边的那些人。所以答案为B项。
35. The passage is written in a way of________.
A. complaint B. satisfaction
C. disappointment D. advice
答案：D 写作手法题。通读全文，尤其是第三段的内容可知，文章是在给读者提出建议，要做一个充满爱心、为他人着想的人。所以答案应为D项。
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。
___36___I guess that would have been when I was about six or seven years old, just several weeks or maybe a month before the orphanage (孤儿院) turned me into an old man.
I would get up every morning at the orphanage, make my bed just like the little soldier that I had become and then I would get into one of the two straight lines and march to breakfast with the other twenty or thirty boys who also lived in my dormitory.
After breakfast one Saturday morning I returned to the dormitory and saw the house parent chasing the beautiful monarch butterflies.___37___
I carefully watched as he caught these beautiful creatures, one after another, and then took them from the net and then stuck straight pins through their head and wings, pinning them onto a heavy cardboard sheet.
___38___ I had walked many times out into the bushes, all by myself, just so the butterflies could land on my head, face and hands so I could look at them up close.
When the telephone rang, the house parent laid the large cardboard paper down on the back cement (水泥) step and went inside to answer the phone. I walked up to the cardboard and looked at the one butterfly who he had just pinned to the large paper. ___39___ So I reached down and touched it on the wing causing one of the pins to fall out. It started flying around and around trying to get away but it was still pinned by the one wing with the other straight pin. Finally its wing broke off and the butterfly fell to the ground and just trembled.
I picked up the torn wing and the butterfly and I spat (吐唾沫) on its wing and tried to get it to stick back on so it could fly away and be free before the house parent came back.___40___
A. I had a little pity on it.
B. It was still moving about.
C. But it would not stay on him.
D. I was tired of living in the orphanage.
E. How cruel it was to kill something of such beauty.
F. There was a time in my life when beauty meant something special to me.
G. They lived by the hundreds in the bushes scattered around the orphanage.
一个热爱自然、崇尚美好的孤儿被困在纪律森严的孤儿院，生活对他来说乏味、无聊甚至是痛苦的，就如同美丽的蝴蝶被别在硬纸板上一样。
36. F 结合下文可知，在作者生命中的一段时间里，美丽对作者曾有着特殊的意义。
37. G 一个星期六早上，早饭后，作者回到宿舍，看见宿舍管理员在追逐那些生活在孤儿院周围的灌木丛中的美丽的蝴蝶。G项承接上文，符合语境。
38. E 上文中提到美丽的蝴蝶被别在硬纸板上，因此此处指杀害这么美丽的蝴蝶是多么残忍啊！
39. B 结合下文可知，此处指这只蝴蝶还没有死，它在挣扎。
40. C 作者拾起折断的翅膀和蝴蝶，试图把它的翅膀与身体拼合起来，使它能够在宿舍管理员回来之前飞走，重获自由，但是翅膀就是粘不到蝴蝶身上。

本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者在黑暗的房间里摸索寻找灯的经历引发了他对人际关系的思索。点亮你的爱和信仰之灯帮助那些受到挫折或者被恐惧绊倒的人。
41. A. confidence B. respect
C. difficulty D. admiration
答案：C 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“The overhead light outside my door was burned out”可知，门外面头上方的灯烧坏了，因此“我”很难找到锁眼。故选C。
42. A. failed B. managed
C. wished D. meant
答案：B 本题考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“I________around the wall for a light switch”可知，“我”在墙上找灯的开关，由此可推知，“我”在黑暗中找到了锁眼，而且成功地打开门进了宾馆房间。
43. A. touched B. looked
C. sensed D. felt
答案：D 本题考查动词辨析。根据上文中的“The overhead light outside my door was burned out”可知，门外面的灯坏了，因此走进房门时，也一定是没有灯光的，只能在墙上摸索着寻找灯开关。feel意为“摸起来，触，摸”，符合题意，故选D。
44. A. once B. never
C. still D. already
答案：A 本题考查副词。根据下文中的“but no switch”可知，作者知道墙上原先是有个灯开关的，但是这次没有了。once意为“曾经”，符合语境，故选A。
45. A. spotting B. producing
C. equipping D. removing
答案：A 本题考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“when I deposited(存放)my luggage________in the day”可知，“我”记得白天放行李时看到床边有盏灯。spot意为“发现”，符合语境，故选A。produce意为“生产”；equip意为“装备”；remove意为“移除”，均不符合语境，故排除。
46. A. earlier B. later
C. lower D. upper
答案：A 本题考查形容词与副词辨析。根据上文中的“It was really a busy day for me, and in the evening I went back to the hotel room after attending a meeting”可知，“我”是在开完会后返回宾馆的。这个“返回”是关键词，说明作者白天早些时候来过宾馆。故选A。
47. A. light B. room
C. dark D. corner
答案：C 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“But no switch”可知，“我”进入房间还是没找到灯开关，仍然处于黑暗中。因此“我”是在黑暗中找到了床。故选C。
48. A. operated B. happened
C. fired D. developed
答案：B 本题考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“I thought that perhaps if I opened the curtains I might be able to use whatever light comes in from the________ to find another lamp.”可知，“我”想拉开窗帘，借助外面射进屋内的灯光找到另一盏灯。这就说明“我”找到的床边的灯仍然不能用。operate意为“运行，操纵”；fire意为“射击，开除”；develop意为“发展”，均不符合语境，故排除。“nothing happened”意为“什么也没有发生”，在此处指灯没有亮，故选B。
49. A. machine B. car
C. room D. street
答案：D 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“I switched it on，nothing________！”可知，“我”找到的床边的灯仍然不亮，所以“我”想拉开窗帘，通过街道上的灯光来寻找屋内的灯。故选D。
50. A. wound B. made
C. forced D. lost
答案：B 本题考查动词辨析。根据上文可知，“我”找到的灯都不能用，屋内还是黑暗一片，所以只能慢慢地在屋内走。make one's way意为“行进”，为固定搭配，符合语境，故选B。
51. A. after B. while
C. until D. since

答案：D 本题考查情态动词。联系上下文可知，“我”在黑暗中寻找灯，跌跌撞撞地终于找到，才会在这种新情况下发现世界能有多黑以及灯有多么必要。can表示理论上的可能性。故选D。
54. A. physical B. psychological
C. electrical D. mental
答案：A 本题考查形容词辨析。根据上文可知，“我”通过自己在黑暗的房间里寻找可用的灯，而联想到人与人之间的关系。许多人也可能被挫折或者悲伤以及恐惧绊倒，需要爱和希望之灯。“我”感觉帮助他人，给人精神关怀远比有形的灯重要。physical意为“身体的，有形的”；psychological意为“心理的”；electrical意为“电的，用电的，发电的”；mental意为“精神上的”。故选A。
55. A. existence B. truth
C. love D. wisdom

56. A. complex B. friendly
C. colourful D. lonely
答案：D 本题考查形容词辨析。根据上文中的“the light that shines from people－the light of________ and faith”可知，来自他人的爱和信仰之灯的照耀，要比有形的灯更有必要，那是因为对许多人来说，这个世界是黑暗和孤独的。故选D。
57. A. need B. favor
C. face D. short
答案：A 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“Today someone just may be stumbling in discouragement or sadness or fear”可知，如今，有人可能正好被挫折或者悲伤或者恐惧绊倒，那么这些人是需要一些灯光的，即爱和信仰之灯。故选A。
58. A. make B. take
C. offer D. contribute
答案：C 本题考查动词辨析。根据上文中的“So let your light shine.”可知，作者倡议点亮你的灯，所以无论你提供什么，都可能成为希望之灯和鼓励之灯。offer意为“(主动)提供”，符合语境，故选C。
59. A. no more than B. other than
C. not more than D. rather than
答案：A 本题考查短语辨析。根据下文中的“remember there isn't enough darkness in all the world to________the light of one small candle”可知，世界上没有足够的黑暗可以扑灭哪怕只是小小的蜡烛之光。据此可推知前半句句意为“如果你感觉你的灯只不过是森林中的一支蜡烛”。no more than意为“仅仅，只是”。符合语境，故选A。
60. A. give out B. put out
C. get over D. set up
答案：B 本题考查动词短语辨析。根据上文中的“And if you feel that your light is________a candle in a forest”可知，如果你感到你的灯仅仅是森林中的一支蜡烛，感觉到自己的力量小，那么请记住世界上没有足够的黑暗可以扑灭哪怕只是小小的蜡烛之光。put out意为“扑灭”，符合语境，故选B。give out意为“发出，放出(热、光)”；get over意为“克服，控制”；set up意为“建立”，均不符合语境，故排除。

65. so 此处表示结果，故用so连接并列分句。
66. progress make great progress“取得巨大进步”。
67. memorizing 与前面的“communicating”是并列关系，所以使用doing的形式。
68. to develop it is...＋to do sth. 为习惯用法，其中it为形式主语，不定式为真正的主语。
69. an 根据后面的“appropriate”可知应用an。
70. should 这里表示“应该”的意思。

Last February, I was on holiday in Beijing with my family. One morning, I was sleeping soundly while I was woken up by a suddenly cry of my sister, “It's snowing.” I got up quickly, dressed me and opened the window. Wow, I couldn't believe in my eyes. Everything including trees, roofs and grass were covered with thick snow. In distance I could see lots of cars, like small white box, moving slowly on the road. I could also see some lovely birds flying happily in the snow. How a beautiful sight! I became exciting because I had never seen snow before. In no time, I ran out with my camera and take many photos to record my first experience of snow.

One possible version：
Pressure is a common serious problem nowadays. Actually, everyone, of course, including us students, lives under pressure in life. We need a relaxation after heavy work to renew our energy.
Burying ourselves all day under piles of books is not the only way to study. More importantly, in my opinion, we should trust ourselves. A conversation with parents or teachers or good friends is an essential way to solve the problem. Apart from that, we can listen to music after class or we can even cry or shout in the open air in order to refresh ourselves.
Our teachers and parents are strict with us because they expect us to be admitted to a good university. We should face the kind of pressure. Only in this way can we face the challenge with pleasant.

第二部分 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)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
[2013·四川双流中学高二入学考试]Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal，usually the male, claims as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he's screaming (高声尖叫) all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird's song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs. You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has something to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
本文通过与人类的对比，讲述了鸟的叫声存在着不同的含义。
21. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds' singing is actually________.
A. an expression of happiness
B. a way of warning
C. an expression of anger
D. a language of their own
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第二段However，they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.可知答案为B。
22. What is a bird's “territory”？
A. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
B. A place where other bird families are not accepted.
C. An area for which birds fight against each other.
D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第三段A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own.可知答案为D。
23. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?
A. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
B. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.
C. Because they want to find outsiders around.
D. Because they want to invite more bird friends.
答案：A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知，在筑巢期间它的叫声其实是在吓走外面的鸟。
24. How does the writer explain birds' singing?
A. By comparing birds with human beings.
B. By reporting experimental results.
C. By describing birds' daily life.
D. By telling a bird's story.
答案：A 写作手法题。通读全文我们不难看出，作者不断地把人类和鸟进行对比。
B
A Southampton University team found that people who were vegetarians by 30 had recorded five IQ points more on average at the age of 10. Researchers said it could explain why people with a higher IQ were healthier as a vegetarian diet was linked to lower heart disease and obesity (肥胖) rates. The study of 8,179 was reported in the British Medical Journal.
Twenty years after the IQ tests were carried out in 1970,366 of the participants said they were vegetarian－although more than 100 reported eating either fish or chicken.
Men who were vegetarian had an IQ score of 106, compared with 101 for non－vegetarians; while female vegetarians averaged 104, compared with 99 for non－vegetarians. There was no difference in the IQ score between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarian but reported eating fish or chicken.
Researchers said the findings were partly related to better education and higher class, but it remained statistically (统计地) significant after adjusting for these factors.
Vegetarians were more likely to be female, to be of higher social class and to have higher academic or professional qualifications than non－vegetarians. However, these differences were not reflected in their annual income, which was similar to that of non－vegetarians.
Lead researcher Catharine Gale said, “The findings that children with greater intelligence are more likely to report being vegetarians than adults, together with the evidence on the potential benefits of a vegetarian diet on heart health, may help to explain why a higher IQ in childhood or adolescence is linked with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease (冠心病) in adult life.”
But Dr. Frankie Phillips, of the British Dietetic Association, said: “It_is_like_the_chicken_and_the_egg. Do people become vegetarian because they have a very high IQ or is it just that they are clever enough to be more aware of health issues？”
一项科学研究发现：素食与高智商有关。
25. What's the result of the research mentioned in the text?
A. Intelligent children are more likely to become vegetarians later in life.
B. Children with a higher IQ are less likely to have heart disease later in life.
C. Intelligent children tend to belong to higher social class later in life.
D. Children with a healthier heart tend to have a higher IQ later in life.
答案：A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“people who were vegetarians by 30 had recorded five IQ points higher on average at the age of 10”知A项正确。根据“it could explain why...”可知这一结果可帮助解释B项中的现象，但B项并非这次研究的结果。故选A项。
26. It was found in the research that________.
A. most of the participants became vegetarians 20 years after the IQ tests were carried out
B. vegetarians who ate fish or chicken were of similar intelligence with strict vegetarians
C. female vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non－vegetarians
D. vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non－vegetarians
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“There was no difference in the IQ scores between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken”可知答案。
27. Catharine Gale talked about “being vegetarians” in a(n) ________way.
A. doubtful B. favorable
C. negative D. objective
答案：D 推理判断题。根据第六段可知Catharine Gale只是客观地讲述研究结果，并没有表示自己的立场。故选D项。
28. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A. Intelligence is linked to not just being a vegetarian but to many factors.
B. The rate of getting heart disease is linked to your lifestyle.
C. The link between a high IQ and being a vegetarian is still uncertain.
D. The link between a healthy heart and diet remains to be proved.
答案：C 推理判断题。文章最后一句的意思是：人们成为素食者是因为他们智商高还是因为他们足够聪明而更注意健康问题？由此可见Dr. Frankie Phillips认为素食和高智商的因果关系尚未明确，就像弄不清楚是因为有蛋才有鸡，还是因为有鸡才有蛋一样。故C项正确。
C
Healthy Habits, Healthy Body
Feeling tired lately? Has a doctor said he can't find anything wrong with you? Perhaps he sent you to a hospital, but all the advanced equipment there shows that there is nothing wrong with you.
Then, consider this: you might be in a state of subhealth(亚健康)．
Subhealth, also called the third state or gray state, is explained as a borderline state between health and disease.
According to the investigation (调查) by the National Health Organization, over 45 percent of subhealthy people are middle－aged or elderly. The percentage is even higher among people who work in management positions as well as students around exam time.
Symptoms (征兆) include a lack of energy, depression (压抑), slow reactions, insomnia (失眠), agitation (焦虑), and poor memory. Other symptoms include shortness of breath，sweating and aching in the waist and legs.
The key to preventing and recovering from subhealth, according to some medical experts, is to form good living habits, alternate work and rest, exercise regularly, and take part in open－air activities.
As for meals, people are advised to eat less salt and sugar. They should eat more fresh vegetables, fruits and fishes because they are rich in nutritional (营养的) elements－vitamins and trace elements (微量元素)－that are important to the body.
Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in the digestive tract(消化道). They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding subhealth.
本文介绍了什么是亚健康以及怎样预防亚健康。
29. According to this passage, which of the following is RIGHT?
A. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should stay at home and keep silent.
B. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should go to see a doctor and buy some medicine.
C. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should have yourself examined in foreign countries.
D. When you are in a state of subhealth, you should find out the reasons and relax yourself.
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第五、六段可知亚健康有很多征兆，要想阻止并从亚健康中恢复，关键是养成良好的生活习惯，平衡工作和休息，有规律锻炼，参加户外活动，这些都会使自己放松，故选D。
30. Middle－aged people may be easy to feel subhealthy because________.
A. they have used up their energy
B. they have lost their living hopes
C. they have more pressure in life and work
D. they begin to get older
答案：C 推理判断题。根据第四段的内容及常识可推知，中年人易处于亚健康状态是因为对他们而言来自生活和工作的压力较之其他人群更大。故选C。
31. The key to preventing you from falling into a state of subhealth is that you should________.
A. work hard
B. sleep more
C. form good living habits
D. take more medicine
答案：C 细节理解题。根据第六段“The key to preventing and recovering from subhealth...is to form good living habits...”可知答案为C。
32. As for food, experts suggested that________.
A. we should never eat meat
B. we should have meals with less salt and sugar
C. we should eat less than usual
D. we should have meals without salt and sugar
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第七段第一句可知答案选B。
D
[2013·云南昆明市高三质检] As I look back on my lifetime, I see the friends, neighbors, teachers and coaches who have meant so much to my development. I praise and admire each of them, but none could compare to my parents, from whom I learned lessons. The reason why they meant so much to me is that they carried out the lessons with care, kindness and love. I always knew that I was truly loved. They showed me their own footprints in this world and challenged me to pass the achievements they had achieved.
They taught me to be compassionate and caring to all I meet in life. One of the hardest lessons I had learned is that life isn't all about me. I need to make the most of the opportunities presented to make a difference to those I meet on life's pathway. When I stop, take the time to be still, and listen to my heart and spirit, I'm aware of my purpose in being here. It's not about my home, but do I care about the homeless? It's not about a beautiful lawn, but do I play ball with the kids and grandkids? It's not about how I take care of my body, but do I care about those in the nursing homes?
Be strong. Forgive those who have hurt you. Be brave and live for others. Don't wait for things to get better someday. Do something today. Use your talents to make the footprints in your life.

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。
___36___I guess that would have been when I was about six or seven years old, just several weeks or maybe a month before the orphanage (孤儿院) turned me into an old man.
I would get up every morning at the orphanage, make my bed just like the little soldier that I had become and then I would get into one of the two straight lines and march to breakfast with the other twenty or thirty boys who also lived in my dormitory.
After breakfast one Saturday morning I returned to the dormitory and saw the house parent chasing the beautiful monarch butterflies.___37___
I carefully watched as he caught these beautiful creatures, one after another, and then took them from the net and then stuck straight pins through their head and wings, pinning them onto a heavy cardboard sheet.
___38___ I had walked many times out into the bushes, all by myself, just so the butterflies could land on my head, face and hands so I could look at them up close.
When the telephone rang, the house parent laid the large cardboard paper down on the back cement (水泥) step and went inside to answer the phone. I walked up to the cardboard and looked at the one butterfly who he had just pinned to the large paper. ___39___ So I reached down and touched it on the wing causing one of the pins to fall out. It started flying around and around trying to get away but it was still pinned by the one wing with the other straight pin. Finally its wing broke off and the butterfly fell to the ground and just trembled.
I picked up the torn wing and the butterfly and I spat (吐唾沫) on its wing and tried to get it to stick back on so it could fly away and be free before the house parent came back.___40___
A. I had a little pity on it.
B. It was still moving about.
C. But it would not stay on him.
D. I was tired of living in the orphanage.
E. How cruel it was to kill something of such beauty.
F. There was a time in my life when beauty meant something special to me.
G. They lived by the hundreds in the bushes scattered around the orphanage.
一个热爱自然、崇尚美好的孤儿被困在纪律森严的孤儿院，生活对他来说乏味、无聊甚至是痛苦的，就如同美丽的蝴蝶被别在硬纸板上一样。
36. F 结合下文可知，在作者生命中的一段时间里，美丽对作者曾有着特殊的意义。
37. G 一个星期六早上，早饭后，作者回到宿舍，看见宿舍管理员在追逐那些生活在孤儿院周围的灌木丛中的美丽的蝴蝶。G项承接上文，符合语境。
38. E 上文中提到美丽的蝴蝶被别在硬纸板上，因此此处指杀害这么美丽的蝴蝶是多么残忍啊！
39. B 结合下文可知，此处指这只蝴蝶还没有死，它在挣扎。
40. C 作者拾起折断的翅膀和蝴蝶，试图把它的翅膀与身体拼合起来，使它能够在宿舍管理员回来之前飞走，重获自由，但是翅膀就是粘不到蝴蝶身上。

本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者在黑暗的房间里摸索寻找灯的经历引发了他对人际关系的思索。点亮你的爱和信仰之灯帮助那些受到挫折或者被恐惧绊倒的人。
41. A. confidence B. respect
C. difficulty D. admiration
答案：C 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“The overhead light outside my door was burned out”可知，门外面头上方的灯烧坏了，因此“我”很难找到锁眼。故选C。
42. A. failed B. managed
C. wished D. meant
答案：B 本题考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“I________around the wall for a light switch”可知，“我”在墙上找灯的开关，由此可推知，“我”在黑暗中找到了锁眼，而且成功地打开门进了宾馆房间。
43. A. touched B. looked
C. sensed D. felt
答案：D 本题考查动词辨析。根据上文中的“The overhead light outside my door was burned out”可知，门外面的灯坏了，因此走进房门时，也一定是没有灯光的，只能在墙上摸索着寻找灯开关。feel意为“摸起来，触，摸”，符合题意，故选D。
44. A. once B. never
C. still D. already
答案：A 本题考查副词。根据下文中的“but no switch”可知，作者知道墙上原先是有个灯开关的，但是这次没有了。once意为“曾经”，符合语境，故选A。
45. A. spotting B. producing
C. equipping D. removing
答案：A 本题考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“when I deposited(存放)my luggage________in the day”可知，“我”记得白天放行李时看到床边有盏灯。spot意为“发现”，符合语境，故选A。produce意为“生产”；equip意为“装备”；remove意为“移除”，均不符合语境，故排除。
46. A. earlier B. later
C. lower D. upper
答案：A 本题考查形容词与副词辨析。根据上文中的“It was really a busy day for me, and in the evening I went back to the hotel room after attending a meeting”可知，“我”是在开完会后返回宾馆的。这个“返回”是关键词，说明作者白天早些时候来过宾馆。故选A。
47. A. light B. room
C. dark D. corner
答案：C 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“But no switch”可知，“我”进入房间还是没找到灯开关，仍然处于黑暗中。因此“我”是在黑暗中找到了床。故选C。
48. A. operated B. happened
C. fired D. developed
答案：B 本题考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“I thought that perhaps if I opened the curtains I might be able to use whatever light comes in from the________ to find another lamp.”可知，“我”想拉开窗帘，借助外面射进屋内的灯光找到另一盏灯。这就说明“我”找到的床边的灯仍然不能用。operate意为“运行，操纵”；fire意为“射击，开除”；develop意为“发展”，均不符合语境，故排除。“nothing happened”意为“什么也没有发生”，在此处指灯没有亮，故选B。
49. A. machine B. car
C. room D. street
答案：D 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“I switched it on，nothing________！”可知，“我”找到的床边的灯仍然不亮，所以“我”想拉开窗帘，通过街道上的灯光来寻找屋内的灯。故选D。
50. A. wound B. made
C. forced D. lost
答案：B 本题考查动词辨析。根据上文可知，“我”找到的灯都不能用，屋内还是黑暗一片，所以只能慢慢地在屋内走。make one's way意为“行进”，为固定搭配，符合语境，故选B。
51. A. after B. while
C. until D. since
答案：C 本题考查连词辨析。根据下文中的“I found a desk lamp which actually________！”可知，“我”在屋内慢慢行进，跌跌撞撞地直到找到能用的灯为止。故选C。
52. A. helped B. worked
C. affected D. inspired
答案：B 本题考查动词辨析。根据句中的关键词“actually”可知，“我”终于找到了能照明的灯了。故选B。
53. A. must B. shall
C. will D. can
答案：D 本题考查情态动词。联系上下文可知，“我”在黑暗中寻找灯，跌跌撞撞地终于找到，才会在这种新情况下发现世界能有多黑以及灯有多么必要。can表示理论上的可能性。故选D。
54. A. physical B. psychological
C. electrical D. mental
答案：A 本题考查形容词辨析。根据上文可知，“我”通过自己在黑暗的房间里寻找可用的灯，而联想到人与人之间的关系。许多人也可能被挫折或者悲伤以及恐惧绊倒，需要爱和希望之灯。“我”感觉帮助他人，给人精神关怀远比有形的灯重要。physical意为“身体的，有形的”；psychological意为“心理的”；electrical意为“电的，用电的，发电的”；mental意为“精神上的”。故选A。

56. A. complex B. friendly
C. colourful D. lonely
答案：D 本题考查形容词辨析。根据上文中的“the light that shines from people－the light of________ and faith”可知，来自他人的爱和信仰之灯的照耀，要比有形的灯更有必要，那是因为对许多人来说，这个世界是黑暗和孤独的。故选D。
57. A. need B. favor
C. face D. short
答案：A 本题考查名词辨析。根据上文中的“Today someone just may be stumbling in discouragement or sadness or fear”可知，如今，有人可能正好被挫折或者悲伤或者恐惧绊倒，那么这些人是需要一些灯光的，即爱和信仰之灯。故选A。
58. A. make B. take
C. offer D. contribute
答案：C 本题考查动词辨析。根据上文中的“So let your light shine.”可知，作者倡议点亮你的灯，所以无论你提供什么，都可能成为希望之灯和鼓励之灯。offer意为“(主动)提供”，符合语境，故选C。
59. A. no more than B. other than
C. not more than D. rather than
答案：A 本题考查短语辨析。根据下文中的“remember there isn't enough darkness in all the world to________the light of one small candle”可知，世界上没有足够的黑暗可以扑灭哪怕只是小小的蜡烛之光。据此可推知前半句句意为“如果你感觉你的灯只不过是森林中的一支蜡烛”。no more than意为“仅仅，只是”。符合语境，故选A。
60. A. give out B. put out
C. get over D. set up
答案：B 本题考查动词短语辨析。根据上文中的“And if you feel that your light is________a candle in a forest”可知，如果你感到你的灯仅仅是森林中的一支蜡烛，感觉到自己的力量小，那么请记住世界上没有足够的黑暗可以扑灭哪怕只是小小的蜡烛之光。put out意为“扑灭”，符合语境，故选B。give out意为“发出，放出(热、光)”；get over意为“克服，控制”；set up意为“建立”，均不符合语境，故排除。

Last February, I was on holiday in Beijing with my family. One morning, I was sleeping soundly while I was woken up by a suddenly cry of my sister, “It's snowing.” I got up quickly, dressed me and opened the window. Wow, I couldn't believe in my eyes. Everything including trees, roofs and grass were covered with thick snow. In distance I could see lots of cars, like small white box, moving slowly on the road. I could also see some lovely birds flying happily in the snow. How a beautiful sight! I became exciting because I had never seen snow before. In no time, I ran out with my camera and take many photos to record my first experience of snow.

According to the Institute of Psychology of Chinese Academy of Sciences (中国科学院心理所), more than 60% senior school students in China have too much pressure put on them，especially those in key schools. It's necessary for them to have some ways to ease their stress and minds.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
One possible version：
Pressure is a common serious problem nowadays. Actually, everyone, of course, including us students, lives under pressure in life. We need a relaxation after heavy work to renew our energy.
Burying ourselves all day under piles of books is not the only way to study. More importantly, in my opinion, we should trust ourselves. A conversation with parents or teachers or good friends is an essential way to solve the problem. Apart from that, we can listen to music after class or we can even cry or shout in the open air in order to refresh ourselves.
Our teachers and parents are strict with us because they expect us to be admitted to a good university. We should face the kind of pressure. Only in this way can we face the challenge with pleasant.
