Ⅶ.阅读理解
I first began experiencing anxiety and depression at the age of 14 after being bullied(欺凌) at school for years.While at first anxiety and depression would come and go，it eventually became a constant part of my life.
I was so eager to find the solution to overcoming my anxiety and depression that I tried everything from when I was in college to graduate school：mood­changing medication，special teas，yoga，anything I read about in books，and advice given by doctors.Despite this，I still felt I hadn’t even come close to managing the problem.
But one afternoon，my eyes fell upon an article in a magazine I was reading that talked about how dogs were able to help people with anxiety and depression.The very next day，I decided to get a dog—a corgi.When I brought my little corgi，Buddy，home，I didn’t realize how much he would change my life.It didn’t happen right away，however.
Once the “puppy excitement” went away，my anxiety and depression came back as usual. One morning，I woke up with those familiar feelings again.I didn’t want to get out of bed.I turned to pull the covers back over my head and gave up.That’s when I saw Buddy.
Buddy started jumping all over me，licking my face，letting me know that it was time to go outside.It was as if he was saying，“There’s no time to be sad；the world is amazing！” And for the first time in my life，my life was changing.I really was a new person.This was my new beginning.
It’s been more than a year since that day，and I’ve never spent another morning unable to get out of bed.I’ve not cried myself to sleep or spent my days stuck with fear and regret.Sure，I still have days when I feel sad or anxious.But with Buddy，my best friend，by my side，I’ve finally learned how to manage these feelings and emotions.

Ⅷ.七选五
A strong memory depends on the health and vitality(活力) of your brain.They say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks，but when it comes to the brain，scientists have discovered that this old saying simply isn’t true. 1
Give your brain a workout.Memory，like muscular strength，requires you to “use it or lose it”．The more you work out your brain，the better you’ll be able to process and remember information. 2
Don’t skip the physical exercise.While mental exercise is important for brain health，that doesn’t mean you never need to break a sweat.Physical exercise helps your brain stay sharp.It increases oxygen to your brain and reduces the risk of disorders that lead to memory loss.
Get enough sleep.There is a big difference between the amount of sleep you can get by on and the amount you need to function at your best. 3
Keep stress in check.Stress is one of the brain’s worst enemies.Over time，stress destroys brain cells.Studies have also linked stress to memory loss.
Have a laugh. 4 That holds true for the brain and the memory，as well as the body.Unlike emotional responses，which are limited to specific areas of the brain，laughter engages multiple regions across the whole brain.
5 Just as the body needs fuel，so does the brain.You probably already know that a diet based on fruits，vegetables，whole grains，“healthy” fats and lean protein will provide lots of health benefits，and such a diet can also improve memory.For brain health，though，it’s not just what you eat—it’s also what you don’t eat.
A．Eat a brain­boosting diet.
B．Play games with memory.
C．Laughter is the best medicine.
D．But oversleeping is not good for your brain.
E．Even skipping a few hours makes a difference!
F．You have to shake things up from time to time!
G．The human brain has an astonishing ability to adapt and change.
语篇解读　本文讨论的是如何增强大脑记忆力。就像锻炼身体一样，大脑也是可以通过锻炼变得更强大的。

1．答案　G
解析　根据上文提到“They say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks，but when it comes to the brain，scientists have discovered that this old saying simply isn’t true.”可知，科学家们发现“老人很难适应新事物”这个谚语并不适用于人的大脑，故下文应讲大脑的特别之处。故选G(人类的大脑具有令人吃惊的适应和改变能力)。
2．答案　F
解析　根据上文提到“The more you work out your brain，the better you’ll be able to process and remember information.”可知，你用脑越多，你就能更好地记住内容。故选F(你需要时不时地复习)。
3．答案　E
解析　根据上文提到“There is a big difference between the amount of sleep you can get by on and the amount you need to function at your best.”可知，本段主要讲充足的睡眠的重要性。故选E(甚至少睡几个小时都会影响你)。
4．答案　C
解析　根据小标题“Have a laugh.”可知，本段讲述的内容是关于“笑”的。故选C(笑是最好的良药)。
5．答案　A
解析　根据下文提到“Just as the body needs fuel，so does the brain.”可知，身体需要能量，大脑也需要。故选A(吃一些补脑食物)。
