A
(2013浙江,A)
No one knows for sure when advertising first started.It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them.That led to the concept of specialization,which means that people would specialize,or focus,on doing one specific job.
Let’s take a man we’ll call Mr.Fielder,for example.He did everything connected with farming.He planted seeds,tended the fields,and harvested and sold his crops.At the same time,he did many other jobs on the farm.However,he didn’t make the bricks for his house,cut his trees into boards,make the plows(犁),or any of the other hundreds of things a farm needs.Instead,he got them from people who specialized in doing each of those things.
Suppose there was another man we shall call Mr.Plowright.Using what he knew about farming and working with iron,Mr.Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier.Mr.Plowright did not really like farming himself and wanted to specialize in making really good plows.Perhaps,he thought, other farmers will trade what they grow for one of my plows.
How did Mr.Plowright let people know what he was doing?Why,he advertised,of course.First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers.That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and a simple arrow pointing to the shop door.It was probably all the information people needed to find Mr.Plowright and his really good plows.
Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used about five thousand years ago.Even before most people could read,they understood such signs.Shopkeepers would carve into stone,clay,or wood symbols for the products they had for sale.
A medium,in advertising talk,is the way you communicate your message.You might say that the first medium used in advertising was signs with symbols.The second medium was audio,or sound,although that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today.Originally,just the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument,such as a bell,were used to get people’s attention.
A crier,in the historical sense,is not someone who weeps easily.It is someone,probably a man,with a voice loud enough to be heard over the other noises of a city.In ancient Egypt,shopkeepers might hire such a person to spread the news about their products.Often this earliest form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with goods.Perhaps the crier described the goods,explained where they came from,and praised their quality.His job was,in other words,not too different from a TV or radio commercial in today’s world.
41.What probably led to the start of advertising?
A.The discovery of iron.
B.The specialization of labor.
C.The appearance of new jobs.
D.The development of farming techniques.
42.To advertise his plows,Mr.Plowright 　　　. 
A.praised his plows in public
B.placed a sign outside the shop
C.hung an arrow pointing to the shop
D.showed his products to the customers
43.The writer makes up the two stories of Mr.Fielder and Mr.Plowright in order to 　　　. 
A.explain the origin of advertising
B.predict the future of advertising
C.expose problems in advertising
D.provide suggestions for advertising
44.In ancient Egypt,a crier was probably someone who 　　　. 
A.owned a ship
B.had the loudest voice
C.ran a shop selling goods to farmers
D.functioned like today’s TV or radio commercial
45.The last two paragraphs are mainly about 　　　. 
A.the history of advertising
B.the benefits of advertising
C.the early forms of advertising
D.the basic design of advertising

B
(2013浙江,B)
Below is a selection from a popular science book.
If blood is red,why are veins(静脉) blue?
Actually,veins are not blue at all.They are more of a clear,yellowish colour.Although blood looks red when it’s outside the body,when it’s sitting in a vein near the surface of the skin,it’s more of a dark reddish purple colour.At the right depth,these blood-filled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin,making them look blue by comparison.
Which works harder,your heart or your brain?
That kind of depends on whether you’re busy thinking or busy exercising.Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise,and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker.But in the long run,your brain probably tips it,because even when you’re sitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart,and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it.
Why do teeth fall out,and why don’t they grow back in grown-ups?
Baby(or“milk”)teeth do not last long;they fall out to make room for bigger,stronger adult teeth later on.Adult teeth fall out when they become damaged,decayed and infected by bacteria.Once this second set of teeth has grown in,you’re done.When they’re gone,they’re gone.This is because nature figures you’re set for life,and what controls regrowth of your teeth switches off.
Do old people shrink as they age?
Yes and no.Many people do get shorter as they age.But,when they do,it isn’t because they’re shrinking all over.They simply lose height as their spine(脊柱) becomes shorter and more curved due to disuse and the effects of gravity(重力).Many (but not all)men and women do lose height as they get older.Men lose an average of 3-4 cm in height as they age,while women may lose 5 cm or more.If you live to be 200 years old,would you keep shrinking till you were,like 60 cm tall,like a little boy again?No,because old people don’t really shrink!It is not that they are growing backwards — their legs,arms and backbones getting shorter.When they do get shorter,it’s because the spine has shortened a little.Or,more often,become more bent and curved.
Why does spinning make you dizzy(眩晕的)?
Because your brain gets confused between what you’re seeing and what you’re feeling.The brain senses that you’re spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear,which work together with your eyes to keep your vision and balance stable.But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control,and your brain thinks you’re moving while you’re not!
Where do feelings and emotions come from?
Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system.All mammals have this brain area — from mice to dogs,cats,and humans.So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear,pain and pleasure.But since human feelings also involve other,newer bits of the brain,we feel more complex emotions than any other animal on the planet.
If exercise wears you out,how can it be good for you?
Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them.And as far as your body is concerned,it’s “use it,or lose it”!It’s not that exercise makes you healthy;it’s more that a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease.
46.What is the colour of blood in a vein near the surface of the skin?
A.Blue. B.Light yellow.
C.Red. D.Dark reddish purple.
47.Why do some old people look a little shrunken as they age?
A.Because their spine is in active use.
B.Because they are more easily affected by gravity.
C.Because they keep growing backwards.
D.Because their spine becomes more bent.
48.Which of the following statements about our brain is true?
A.In the long run,our brain probably works harder than our heart.
B.When our brain senses the spinning,we will feel dizzy.
C.The brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.
D.Our feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.
49.What is the main purpose of the selection?
A.To give advice on how to stay healthy.
B.To provide information about our body.
C.To challenge new findings in medical research.
D.To report the latest discoveries in medical science.

C
(2013浙江,C)
The baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby.Almost from the moment it is born,the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother.During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large,warm,and soft object in its environment,particularly if that object also gives it milk.After a week or so,however,the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother”—the real mother or the mother-substitute (母亲替代物).
During the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological(心理的) thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby.The Harlows,a couple who are both psychologists,discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutes—one covered with cloth and one made of bare wire.If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature,the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother.However,if the wire model was heated,while the cloth model was cool,for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their favorites.Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother.
Why is cloth preferable to bare wire?Something that the Harlows called contact(接触)comfort seems to be the answer,and a most powerful influence it is.Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers’ skins,putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can.Whenever the young animal is frightened,disturbed,or annoyed,it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body.Wire doesn’t “rub”as well as does soft cloth.Prolonged (长时间的)“contact comfort”with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.
According to the Harlows,the basic quality of a baby’s love for its mother is trust.If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother,the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be.It screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball.If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom,the baby rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life.After a few minutes of contact comfort,it obviously begins to feel more secure.It then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys,but often rushes back for a deep embrace (拥抱) as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well.Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding onto its mother.”
50.Psychologically,what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life?
A.Warmth. B.Milk.
C.Contact. D.Trust.
51.After the first two weeks of their life,baby monkeys prefer the cloth mother to the wire mother because the former is 　　　. 
A.larger in size
B.closer to them
C.less frightening and less disturbing
D.more comfortable to rub against
52.What does the baby monkey probably gain from prolonged“contact comfort”?
A.Attention. B.Softness.
C.Confidence. D.Interest.
53.It can be inferred that when the baby monkey feels secure,　　　. 
A.it frequently rushes back for a deep embrace when exploring the toys
B.it spends more time screaming to get rewards
C.it is less attracted to the toys though they are interesting
D.it cares less about whether its mother is still around
54.The main purpose of the passage is to　　　. 
A.give the reasons for the experiment
B.present the findings of the experiment
C.introduce the method of the experiment
D.describe the process of the experiment


D
(2013浙江,D)
In 1974,after filling out fifty applications,going through four interviews,and winning one offer,I took what I could get—a teaching job at what I considered a distant wild area:western New Jersey.My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen—teaching English.
School started,but I felt more and more as if I were in a foreign country.Was this rural area really New Jersey?My students took a week off when hunting season began.I was told they were also frequently absent in late October to help their fathers make hay on the farms.I was a young woman from New York City,who thought that “Make hay while the sun shines”just meant to have a good time.
But,still,I was teaching English.I worked hard,taking time off only to eat and sleep.And then there was my sixth-grade class—seventeen boys and five girls who were only six years younger than me.I had a problem long before I knew it.I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher.I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love of the written word.The students wanted to throw spitballs and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.
In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior.So I did,confident that,as the textbook had said,the bad behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention.It sounds reasonable,but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans,particularly teenagers,rarely seem reasonable.By the time my boss,who was also my taskmaster,known to be the strictest,most demanding,most quick to fire inexperienced teachers,came into the classroom to observe me,the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.
My boss sat in the back of the room.The boys in the class were making animal noises,hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines.I just pretended it all wasn’t happening,and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions.My boss,sitting in the back of the room,seemed to be growing bigger and bigger.After twenty minutes he left,silently.Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes.
I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying,but at my next free period I had to face him.I wondered if he would let me finish out the day.I walked to his office,took a deep breath,and opened the door.
He was sitting in his chair,and he looked at me long and hard.I said nothing.All I could think of was that I was not an English teacher;I had been lying to myself,pretending that everything was fine.
When he spoke,he said simply,without accusation,“You had nothing to say to them.”
“You had nothing to say to them,”he repeated.“No wonder they’re bored.Why not get to the meat of the literature and stop talking about symbolism.Talk with them,not at them.And more important,why do you ignore their bad behavior?”We talked.He named my problems and offered solutions.We role-played.He was the bad student,and I was the forceful,yet,warm,teacher.
As the year progressed,we spent many hours discussing literature and ideas about human beings and their motivations.He helped me identify my weaknesses and my strengths.In short,he made a teacher of me by teaching me the reality of Emerson’s words:“The secret to education lies in respecting the pupil.”
Fifteen years later I still drive that same winding road to the same school.Thanks to the help I received that difficult first year,the school is my home now.
55.It can be inferred from the story that in 1974 　　　. 
A.the writer became an optimistic person
B.the writer was very happy about her new job
C.it was rather difficult to get a job in the USA
D.it was easy to get a teaching job in New Jersey
56.According to the passage,which of the following is most probably the writer’s problem as a new teacher?
A.She had blind trust in what she learnt at college.
B.She didn’t ask experienced teachers for advice.
C.She took too much time off to eat and sleep.
D.She didn’t like teaching English literature.
57.What is the writer’s biggest worry after her taskmaster’s observation of her class?
A.She might lose her teaching job.
B.She might lose her students’ respect.
C.She couldn’t teach the same class any more.
D.She couldn’t ignore her students’ bad behavior any more.
58.Which of the following gives the writer a sense of mild victory?
A.Her talk about symbolism sounded convincing.
B.Her students behaved a little better than usual.
C.She managed to finish the class without crying.
D.She was invited for a talk by her boss after class.
59.The students behaved badly in the writer’s classes because 　　　. 
A.they were eager to embarrass her
B.she didn’t really understand them
C.they didn’t regard her as a good teacher
D.she didn’t have a good command of English
60.The taskmaster’s attitude towards the writer after his observation of her class can be best described as　　　. 
A.cruel but encouraging
B.fierce but forgiving
C.sincere and supportive
D.angry and aggressive

A.Time can run out.

Never Put off Until Tomorrow What You Can Do Today
Want to put off studying for the physics test?Or writing that thirty-five-page research paper on future uses of biotechnology?Sure you do?And who wouldn’t?But it’s still a silly idea to put off doing something until a future time.Here’s why...
61.　　　 The task will be still the same.It won’t be any more fun and you still won’t want to do it.As the deadline gets closer and closer,the task seems to become larger and larger if you haven’t started the work.And the stress increases.Now not only do you have to write that paper,you have to do it under great pressure. 
62.　　　 Before you start,it seems that the task is unlikely to be accomplished.But you know why?You’re probably miscalculating.Get started — maybe on a small piece — and you’ll discover that you have more resources and know more about the subject than you thought.Result?You won’t experience nearly as much suffering as you expected to.Things are guaranteed — 100 percent — to get better. 
63.　　　 If you leave your work until the night before it’s due,you give up the possibility of getting input from your professor.Professors regularly give advice — or at least a few useful tips — during office hours.Unfortunately,though,they don’t usually hold office hours at midnight,so you’ll be out of luck when you discover the night before the midterm that you have no idea how to do the questions that will count for two-thirds of your grade. 
64.　　　Ever wonder why the professor assigns the paper two weeks before it’s due?It’s because he or she expects you to be thinking about the issue,or doing the research,for two weeks.No,not every waking moment,but at least some of the time.After all,the professor could just as easily have given the assignment one week before it was due if he or she expected less thinking.Most college papers require you to have some kind of idea,then to spend some time thinking about it,revising it,and polishing it.When you throw together a paper or a report at the last minute,your ideas are half-baked.And your professor will know it. 
65.　　　 If you put things off till the last minute,you might find that you haven’t budgeted enough minutes to finish the necessary tasks.It’s the easiest thing in the world to miscalculate how long it’ll take to do all the work especially when new issues arise — like illness,family problems,computer breakdowns,trouble at work,and all the other things — as you’re thinking through your paper argument or preparing yourself for the coming test.If you keep delaying,you don’t allow yourself time for those various life events that have an adverse (不利的) effect on your ability to complete your assignment.

Dear Diary,
Here I am in the middle of a city,350 miles far away from our farmhouse.Do you want to know why we move last week?Dad lost his job,and as Mom explained,“He was lucky to find other one.”His new job meant I had to say goodbye to my classmate,my school or just everything else I love in the world.To make matters bad,now I have to share a room with my younger sister,Maggie.Tomorrow is first day of school.I am awfully tiring,but I know I’ll never fall sleep.
Good night and remember,you,dear diary,is my only souvenir from my past life and my only friend.
Yours,
Rosemary

5.D　考查定语从句。先行词为children,指人,且此处为非限制性定语从句,故选D项。句意:这些玩了一天的孩子们累坏了。
6.A　考查副词辨析。hopefully “有希望地”;curiously“好奇地”;occasionally“偶尔”;gradually“逐渐地”。句意:如果我们立刻出发,有希望按时抵达。根据句意可知A项正确。
7.A　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处为主语,主句谓语动词为creates,其宾语为an added pleasure。how others react to the book you have just read 为hear的宾语从句,you have just read为book的定语从句。根据句子结构可知此处用动名词形式作主语,故选A项。

20.D　考查交际用语。句意:——打扰一下,能麻烦你给我兑换点零钱吗?——让我看一下,便士可以吗?根据语境可知D项正确。
【语篇导读】本文为记叙文。“我”有幸被选为一名交流生去法国学习。不但领略了异国他乡的风土人情,也学会了尊重别人,收获了一段珍贵的友谊。
21.B　根据文章上文提到的一封申请信,在信中自然是表达了自己非常想去法国的愿望。discuss“讨论”;express “表达,表示”;announce “宣布”;argue“争论,争辩”。根据语境可知B项正确。
22.B　根据上下文可以看出,此处表示“我”得知有机会去法国了,心情很高兴。故用know“了解,知道”。
23.D　此处句意:我能想到的就是出国旅游的乐趣和结交各种有趣的新朋友。stubborn“固执的”;anxious“焦急的,担忧的”;universal“通用的,全球的”;interesting“有趣的”。根据句意可知D项正确。
24.C　根据上文反复提到的fun可以看出,出国旅行是令人鼓舞的,结交朋友是令人兴奋的。boring“令人厌烦的”;upsetting“令人不安的”;exciting“令人兴奋的”;promising“有希望的,有前途的”,根据语境可知C项正确。
25.A　while表示“尽管”,由此可以看出,前后构成语意上的转折。本句表示“我在法国学习的这一学期没有什么是我所期望的”。与上文 “...all I could think about was the fun of foreign travel and making...friends.”相呼应。故A项正确。
26.C　一到法国,一对热心的法国夫妇接待了“我”,他们也成了“我”的房东。sponsor“赞助”;witness“目睹,见证”;greet“打招呼,迎接”;support“支持,赞助”。根据语境可知C项正确。
27.A　“我”这段时间都是快乐和兴奋的,直到有一天接到消息他们家有亲戚去世了,需要离开法国一段时间,而“我”也就不能再住在这里了。故用until“直到……为止”符合句意。
28.A　承接上题,既然不能在此居住,“我”自然就得要搬走。故用 move“搬家,搬迁”。
29.C　根据下文提到的“...share a bedroom with...”可知,此处是“我”要有个室友 “roommate”了,故选C项。
30.C　此处表示为了避免说自己的母语,“我”不希望与一个说英语的同学合住。因此用speak“说,讲”后面可接某种语言作其宾语。
31.D　参考上题句意。combine“结合,联合”;fit “固定,安装”;involve“涉及,牵扯”;place“安放,安置”。根据句意可知D项正确。
32.B　根据前面提到的new room,可知遇到新室友,自然是进行自我介绍,故introduce“介绍”符合语境。
33.A　根据文章第一段最后一句可知,“我”到法国要学习一个学期,因此此处表示“剩下的整个学期”这两人都成了好朋友。故要选A项。
34.C　学期结束,“我”带着许多见闻离开了法国,外国的风土人情,结识的巴西朋友都成了“我”津津乐道的故事。故用C项story“故事,见闻,经历”。
35.A　对于那些没有这种经历的人来说,听到这些都会有种“惊讶”的感觉,因为这些都是些新鲜事。surprised“吃惊的”;disturbed“心烦的”;embarrassed“尴尬的”;concerned“关心的,担忧的”。根据语境可知A项最合适。
36.B　“我们”结伴去旅行,探索这个国家。因为这是一个陌生的国度,一切都是那么新鲜,需要去探索和发现。故用explore“探索,考查,探究”符合语境。
37.D　此处考查情态动词。表示理论上的一种可能性,他们可能看起来是不同的,但最终却发现是如此的相似。can在肯定句中表示可能性,意为“有时会,往往会”。
38.C　根据前面的信息词but,以及different可以看出此处要选用其反义词,故similar“相似的,类似的”符合语境。
39.B　在法国学习期间,最大的学习收获不是仅仅尊重法国人而是去尊重所有人,因为你下一个最好的朋友可能来自另一个大陆。因此用but,构成not...but...“不是……而是”。
40.B　首尾呼应,而且纵观全文也可以看出“我”收获珍贵的友谊,因此作为一名交流生不但会体验异国文化,也会获得友谊。故friendship符合语境。

42.B　细节理解题。根据文章第四段第三句“...he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers.”可知,为了给自己的犁做广告,Mr.Plowright在店外放了一块招牌以吸引顾客,故B项符合原文信息。
43.A　推理判断题。从这两个小故事不难看出作者用它们来介绍早期广告是如何产生的,因此A项正确。
44.D　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知,crier嗓门大,在嘈杂的城市里也能被听到。古埃及店主雇佣这样的人来为他们的新产品做宣传。根据最后一句可知,crier的工作无异于现在的电视或是电台的广告。因此D项“他们的作用就相当于现在的电视或电台广告宣传”为最佳选项。而B项虽提及嗓门大,但没指出其实际作用,故不正确。crier其本义为(昔日的)沿街呼唤传报消息的人。
45.C　主旨大意题。根据文章最后两段不难看出,作者介绍了medium和crier这两种广告形式,故C项正确。

49.B　主旨大意题。纵观全文,主要阐述了关于人体的一些研究成果。因此其目的就是提供一些关于人体的信息。故只有B项正确。
【语篇导读】本文为说明文。主要介绍了一项对幼猴习性研究的实验结果,结果表明:它们出生时远比人类的婴儿要聪明得多。而且在随后的几周内它们对“母亲”的依恋程度是有所不同的。
50.A　细节理解题。根据文章第二段科学家所做的实验可知,在幼猴出生后的头两周内它们更喜欢温暖的“妈妈”。因此它们最需要的是温暖,故选A项。
51.D　细节理解题。根据文章第三段可知,幼猴多数时间都在蹭母亲的皮肤以求安慰。“布料妈妈”的感觉远比“电线妈妈”要舒服得多。因此D项正确。
52.C　细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句“...give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.”可知,这种安慰感给予它们信心,因此C项正确。
53.D　推理判断题。根据文章最后一句 “...more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding onto its mother.” 可知,幼猴更多的时间用来玩玩具,找母亲的时间也越来越少,因此D项正确。A项属于原文直述内容,不是推断出的结论;而B项和C项均与原文信息不符。

56.A　推理判断题。根据文章第四段第一句“In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior.So I did, confident...”可知,作者上大学时就被老师教导:一个成功的教育家应该忽视不良行为。因此作者就坚信这些不良行为会自行消失。通过这些内容可以看出她当时盲目相信在大学里所学到的知识。
57.A　细节理解题。根据文章第五段最后一句“Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes.”可知,当时作者眼前就浮现出了被辞退的画面。因此她最大的担忧就是或许会因此丢了这份工作。故A项正确。
58.C　细节理解题。根据文章第六段第一句“I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying...”可知,当时作者感到一丝成功的就是能坚持上完这堂课而没有流泪。故C项正确。

One Thing I’m Proud of
I still remember how I became a good table tennis player.
The first day I went to high school,I saw some of my classmates playing table tennis.Amazed at how skilful they were,I was determined to be just as good.Later on,I often watched them carefully to learn their techniques.Then I kept practising until I became confident enough to challenge the good players.At the end of the term I became one of the best players in my class.
I am really proud of this experience,because it helps me realise that we all can fulfil our potential and achieve our goals through hard work.It also helps me better understand the proverb“Practice makes perfect.”
