第一节（共15小题；每小题2. 5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
At the start f the 20th century, an American engineer named Jhn Elfreth Watkins made predictins abut life tday. His predictins abut slwing ppulatin grwth, mbile phnes and increasing height were clse t the mark. But he was wrng in ne predictin: that everybdy wuld walk 10 miles a day.
Tday, in Australia, mst children n average fall 2, 000 steps shrt f the physical activity they need t avid being verweight. In the early 1970s, 40 per cent f children walked t schl, while in 2010, it was as lw as 15 percent.
The decline is nt because we have all becme lazy. Families are pressed fr time, many with bth parents wrking t pay fr their huse, ften wrking hurs nt f their chsing, living in car-dependent neighbrhds with limited public transprt.
The ther side f the cin is equally a deprivatin: fr health and well-being, as well as lst pprtunities (机会) fr children t get t knw their lcal surrundings. And fr parents there are lst pprtunities t walk and talk with their yung schlar abut their day.
Mst parents will have eagerly asked their child abut their day, nly t meet with a “gd”, quickly fllwed by “I’m hungry”. This is als my experience as a mther. But smewhere ver the daily walk mre abut my sn’s day cmes ut. I hear him making sense f friendship and its limits. This is the unexpected and rare parental pprtunity t hear mre.
Many primary schls supprt walking schl-bus rutes (路线), with days f regular, parent-accmpanied walks. Ding just ne f these a few times a week is better than nthing. It can be tugh t begin and takes a little planning-running shes by the frnt dr, lunches made the night befre, umbrellas n rainy days and hats n ht nes-but it's certainly wrth trying.
21. Why des the authr mentin Watkins' predictins in the first paragraph?
A. T make cmparisns.B. T intrduce the tpic.
C. T supprt her argument.D. T prvide examples.
22. What has caused the decrease in Australian children’s physical activity?
A. Plain laziness.B. Health prblems.
C. Lack f time.D. Security cncerns.
23. Why des the authr find walking with her sn wrthwhile?
A. She can get relaxed after wrk.B. She can keep physically fit.
C. She can help with her sn's study.D. She can knw her sn better.

It was while watching the mvie The Savages in 2009 that phtgrapher Kendrick Brinsn first caught sight f Sun City, Arizna, a big retirement cmmunity nrthwest f Phenix. The film scene—with bright desert light, glf carts, and tidy rws f farm-style hmes— “had this really strange, very visually interesting lk t it,” she says.
Since then, Brinsn, 40, has gne every year t phtgraph Sun City’s residents, sme f whm have becme her clse friends. Observing the enthusiasm peple have s many activities there, the self-described perfectinist says she learned smething abut herself: “I realized that I dn’t have t be great, r even gd at smething. I can just like the way it feels.” She’s taken up hbbies such as waterclr painting.
Opened in 1960, Sun City bills itself as the Original Fun City, designed fr residents 55 and lder. While retirement cmmunities have rapidly increased acrss the cuntry t meet the needs f graying baby bmers, Sun City remains ne f the largest. Its 14 square miles f palm tree-lined streets feature eight glf curses, eight entertainment centers with seven water facilities, multiple malls, tw libraries, a hspital, and ne cemetery.
The average age f the nearly 40,000 residents is 73. Sun City has been mainly white, but Brinsn says the cmmunity is starting t fcus mre n diversity and inclusiveness. On each visit, she finds herself filled with renewed energy. “It’s this purpseful learning, scializing, playfulness that I find super fascinating,” she says.
As with any grup f aging peple, lss is very much a part f life at Sun City; sme f Brinsn’s friends have passed away. But residents say they dn’t quite murn death. “This is nt Gd’s waiting rm,” ne tld her. “Everyne is active and ding smething.”
24. Wh mst likely lived in the Sun City?
A. Ann, a cllege studentB. Susan, a retired banker
C. Jhn, an emplyed phtgrapherD. Candy, a newbrn baby
25. What did Brinsn learn frm the Sun City’s residents?

D. N need t pursue perfectin at sme time.
26. What can we learn abut Sun City accrding t the passage?
A. It has neat farm-style huses.
B. It is accessible t peple under 5

The musician Mby nce said, “Music has n frm whatsever--all it is is air mving just a little bit differently. It’s the nly artfrm that yu can’t tuch.” It is true that we cannt tuch music, but that des nt mean that music is invisible. There is, in fact, away t “see” music.
Hw can we see music? Neurscientists (神经科学家) use MRI machines t lk inside the brain. These tls let them see the neurns, r braincells, which are in use when peple are listening t music. Cmputer screens linked t MRIs shw that when peple listen t music, neurns light up in many parts f the brain.
Neurscientists have ds cvered that it isn’t necessary t hear music fr the neurns t light up. Even when yu just think abut a sng, these neurns light up. In additin, the same neural activity in the same part f the brain happens when peple experience ther pleasurable activities. Fr example, sme f the same neurns light up when we eat smething delicius r hug a lve dne. Negative feelings such as fear r anxiety make neurns in a different area light up. Hwever, when an anxius r frightened persn listens t pleasurable music, these neurns stp lighting up.
Why des music have s many benefits? The answer maybe because it uses s many different parts f the brain. Accrding t neurscientists, using many parts f the brain at ne time gives yur brain a gd “wrkut.” Reading music while playing a musical instrument uses mre parts f the brain simultaneusly (同时地) than mst ther activities. It invlves bth physical mvement and mental activity, much like playing a sprt such as sccer.
S, althugh Mby is cmpletely crrect that we cannt tuch music, it is pssible t “see” music. There is still a lt t learn abut the effects f music n ur brain. Hwever, there is n dubt that scientists have shwn that music is an extremely pwerful artfrm with many psitive effects.
28. Why des the authr mentin Mby’s wrd?
A. T define what music is.
B. T call peple’s attentin t music.
C. T intrduce the study f seeing music.
D. T cnfirm the invisible feature f music.
29. In what situatin will the neurns linking t happiness prbably light up?
A. When yu are wrried abut yur exam.
B. When yu are busy with yur presentatin.
C. When yu enjy yur favrite brand f cffee.
D. When yu miss the deadline f yur hmewrk.
30. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. The advantages f music ver sprts.
B. The reasns fr the benefits f music.
C. The causes f the neurns lighting up.
D. The varius healing functins f music.
31. What is the authr’s attitude twards effects f music?
A. Psitive.B. Critical.
C. Neutral.D. Dismissive.
D
Everything yu knw is in yur brain. Fr what yu dn’t, yu can ask the web. Hwever, as yu can imagine, in the past there were n cmputers and n web at all. Think abut peple living 3,500 years ag, in places where pyramids twered abve them. The lack f explanatins abut hw things wrked inspired the ancients t make discveries and feed their curisity.
But d nt think they knew nthing: in fact, we still wnder hw the Egyptians culd build the pyramids using their wn, rather rudimentary equipment. They wrte dwn their knwledge n bks(called papyrus scrlls) s that later peple culd benefit frm their skills.
Living safer and healthier was a tp pririty fr the ancients: when they hurt their heads in battles, they used t heal their wunds using the cures, sme f which were recrded n a papyrus nw knwn as the Edwin Smith Papyrus. Interestingly, this is the ldest written evidence f the wrd ”brain“ we have n Earth, and it dates back t 3,500 years ag!
Hwever, writing the wrd ”brain“ n a papyrus did nt slve all the questins abut it. Arund 2500 years ag, fr example, ancient Greeks wndered whether mind and sul lay in the brain r in the heart.
2,000 years ag, Rman physician Galen f Pergamn was sure he had slved the questin: It was the brain, nt the heart, that was the center f mental life. Hwever, Galen had t cnvince the peple arund him that what he had discvered was true. It was nt easy, mstly because peple held their earlier beliefs. Every neurscientist, just like Galen did, has t carefully bserve reality, fcus n smething that is really interesting, think abut hw it can wrk, perfrm experiments, and discuss the data they get. This way, they can btain cnvincing evidence t be shared with thers.
32. What encuraged the ancients t make discveries?
A. The hpe fr keeping curisity.
B. The search fr explanatins..
C. The need fr writing bks .
D. The wish t wrk faster.
33. Which wrd can best replace ”rudimentary" underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Primitive .B. Cmplicated .
C Electrical.D. Prtective.
34. What can be learned abut the Edwin Smith Papyrus?
A. It was cnsidered useless at first.
B. It was finished 2,500 years ag.
C. It was prbably a medical text.
D It was written by Galen f Pergamn .
35. Hw did Galen cnvince peple f his discvery?
A. By finding evidence frm papyrus scrlls.
B. By asking many scientists t supprt him.
C. By teaching peple t d experiments.
D. By fllwing strict scientific methds.
