When we think f flavr, it is ur nses and taste buds that we think f first. Isn’t it bvius that taste and smell are the dminant senses when we enjy fd and drink? Well, perhaps nt.
“Years ag, flavr was a table with tw legs — taste and dr (气味),” Terry E. Acree, PhD, wh is with Crnell University’s Department f Fd Science, tld Natinal Gegraphic. “Nw we are beginning t understand that flavr depends n parts f the brain that invlve nt nly taste, smell and tuch, but visin. These signals, plus ur emtins and past experiences, result in perceptin (感受) f flavrs, and decide whether we like r dislike fds.”
A gd example f “the first bite is taken with the eye” is that if we were shwn tw plates f strawberries, ne red and the ther pinkish, the majrity f us wuld be attracted t red because “it signals ripeness, sweetness and calries”, explained The Guardian.
The findings f a German study seem t back this up. Its subjects said wine tasted 50 percent sweeter if drunk under red light, rather than under blue r white.
In anther study published in the jurnal Flavur, scientists fund that the clr f yur cffee mug (马克杯) can change the way yur cffee tastes, reprted The Washingtn Pst. And it is nt just the clr f the fd that matters.
Specifically, a white mug was assciated with a mre “intense” (r bitter) tasting cup f cffee, while a clear glass mug was nt.
A blue mug, meanwhile, was “kind f an intermediate (中等的)”, Charles Spence, an experimental psychlgist at Oxfrd University, tld the newspaper.
The ppsite was true fr perceived sweetness — the participants tasted less sweetness when they drank frm a white mug than they did when they drank frm bth a blue mug and a clear glass mug.
It’s als pssible that certain clrs are assciated with certain experiences. In the case f cffee, the researchers believe the clr brwn might be smething peple assciate with bitterness.
“A white mug may have affected the perceived brwnness f the cffee and this, in turn, may have affected the perceived intensity (and sweetness) f the cffee,” the researchers wrte.
8. Which f the fllwing statements might Terry E. Acree agree with mst?
A. The flavr f fd mainly depends n taste and smell.
B. The link between flavr and visin has nt been prved yet.
C. Our emtins can influence the flavr f the fd we are eating.
D. Our perceptin f flavr has nthing t d with ur past experiences.
9. What des the strawberry experiment in Paragraph 3 shw?
A. We are usually tricked by ur eyes abut the flavr f fd.
B. Fd flavr varies greatly between different peple.
C. The clr f fd can affect the way we perceive its flavr.
D. Fd flavr is clsely assciated with ur past experiences
10. Accrding t the article, it might help peple wh want their cffee sweet t serve it in a ______ mug.
A blackB. red
C. clearD. white
11. What is the article mainly abut?
A. Methds that can help t make fd taste better.
B. Factrs that affect ur perceptin f flavr.
C. Hw cffee mugs influence the taste f cffee.
D. A new study abut ur perceptin f flavr.

【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“if we were shwn tw plates f strawberries, ne red and the ther pinkish, the majrity f us wuld be attracted t red because “it signals ripeness, sweetness and calries”, (如果我们面前由两盘草莓，一盘盛放红色的草莓，一个盛放粉色草莓，我们大部分人会选择红色的那盘，因为它表明成熟、甜蜜和卡路里)”可知，食物的颜色会影响我们对食物味道的判断。故选C项。

Many f us have heard f r seen My Fair Lady (1964), a classic mvie starring British actress Audrey Hepburn. The film is an adaptatin f Pygmalin, a cmic play by the Irishman Gerge Bernard Shaw (1856-1950).
Hwever, the musical versin f My Fair Lady is even lder, and has been entertaining audiences since 1956. In fact, a new Bradway versin f the musical was nminated fr 10 Tny awards.
The stry f Eliza Dlittle, a wrking-class flwer seller frm Lndn, and the snbbish Prfessr Higgins, wh teaches her “prper English”, has never shwed any signs f dying ut since it was intrduced.
But why d peple still queue up arund the blck fr tickets when a new prductin f the play is annunced?
The answer is simple: The musical has a wnderful stry. Everyne can identify with Dlittle’s desire t live a mre satisfying life; all she wants is t get rid f her accent s she can get a jb in a stre and nt n the streets. Hwever, it seems that peple like Higgins are always lking dwn n Dlittle fr nt being frm a fancy family, which is smething that many f us can relate t.
Besides Dlittle’s backgrund, the stry and the sngs in the musical are als what make it s ppular. Audience members are mved when Eliza and her fellw flwer sellers imagine what it’d be like t live as a rich persn des. This is perfectly summed up in the lyric, “Wuldn’t it be lvely?”
The musical als makes peple think. It desn’t make sense that ne kind f accent can be cnsidered gd and anther bad. Eliza and her father speak “badly” because they were brn pr, while Higgins speaks “prper English” because he was brn a “gentleman”. That reflects the unfairness f class divisins – a kind f unfairness that still sadly exists tday.
12. The underlined wrd “nminated” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by _______.
A. appintedB. selected
C. prpsedD. directed
13. Peple like Bradway’s musical My Fair Lady mainly because _______.
A. it’s cnsidered the best adaptatin f Pygmalin.
B. it ffers a gd chance t learn prper English
C. it was nminated fr 10 Tny awards
D. they can relate t the stry
14. What message des My Fair Lady cnvey?
A. Dn’t judge peple by appearance.
B. Wmen’s status has been greatly imprved in the UK.
C. Scial class divisin is deeply rted in British sciety.
D. One’s language ability and manner are the key t success.
15. What can we knw abut the stry f the musical?
A. Higgins is described as a kindhearted man.
B. Eliza was brn pr but fights fr a better life.
C. Higgins and Eliza get alng well since they first meet.
D. Eliza finally changes Higgins’ prejudice against the pr.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。介绍了广受观众喜欢的音乐剧《窈窕淑女》，分析了人们喜爱它的原因。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“Hwever, the musical versin f My Fair Lady is even lder, and has been entertaining audiences since 1956.( 然而，《窈窕淑女》音乐版年龄更大，自1956年以来一直在娱乐观众)”，因此推断这部音乐剧很受观众欢迎，划线句句意“事实上，这部音乐剧的一个新百老汇版本获得了10项托尼奖的nminated。”说明这部音乐剧的成功，获得了许多奖项的提名，因此划线词词义与C项“推荐；提名”词义相近。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段的“The answer is simple: The musical has a wnderful stry. Everyne can identify with Dlittle’s desire t live a mre satisfying life ( 答案很简单：这部音乐剧有一个精彩的故事。每个人都能认同杜利特尔想要过上更令人满意的生活的愿望)”和“Hwever, it seems that peple like Higgins are always lking dwn n Dlittle fr nt being frm a fancy family, which is smething that many f us can relate t.( 然而，像希金斯这样的人似乎总是瞧不起不是来自高级家庭的杜利特尔，这是我们很多人都能理解的事情。)”可推断，人们喜欢百老汇音乐剧《窈窕淑女》主要因为他们可以理解这个故事。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“That reflects the unfairness f class divisins – a kind f unfairness that still sadly exists tday.( 这反映了阶级划分的不公平——一种至今仍然悲哀地存在的不公平。)”可知，《窈窕淑女》传递了一种信息: 社会阶级划分深植于英国社会。故选C项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段的“Everyne can identify with Dlittle’s desire t live a mre satisfying life(每个人都能认同杜利特尔想要过上更令人满意的生活的愿望)”以及最后一段的“Eliza and her father speak “badly” because they were brn pr(伊丽莎和她的父亲说得“不好”，因为他们生来就很穷)”可知，伊丽莎生来很穷，但却在为更好的生活而奋斗。故选B项。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了恐龙的回归这一话题。克隆凶猛和灭绝的野生动物的可能性一直使电影制片人感到兴奋。然而事实上，要想克隆像恐龙这样的已经灭绝的动物，就我们现在所知道的而言，是不可能的。所以说恐龙回归地球的可能性仅仅是个梦想罢了。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意：在《侏罗纪公园》这部影片中，有一位科学家克隆了几种不同的绝种恐龙，类似这样的电影的很受欢迎证明了这一想法使人们感到既兴奋又恐惧。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填名词，ppular的名词形式为ppularity。故填ppularity。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意：科学家现在还在进行克隆哺乳动物的实验，这是因为克隆哺乳动物还是一门新的科学。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填冠词，表示一种，new是以辅音音素开头的词，应填a。故填a。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：不时地会有人提议，克隆技术将有可能使地球上已经灭绝的动物如恐龙复活。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填介词，frm time t time表示“不时，偶尔”，所以应填t。故填t。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意：不时地会有人提议，克隆技术将有可能使地球上已经灭绝的动物如恐龙复活。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填副词修饰动词make。所以应填pssibly。故填pssibly。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意：不幸的是，据我们现在所知这是不可能的，也是不合适的。either…r…表示“要么……要么……，或者……或者……”，用于连接句子中并列的成分，所以空格处应填r。故填r。
【46题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：首先要求你有完好的DNA，它提供有关细胞将如何生长的信息。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填谓语动词，结合本句中所给的其他谓语动词可知应用一般现在时，且与主语which(指代DNA)之间的关系为主动，谓语动词用单数形式，所以应填prvides。故填prvides。
【47题详解】
考查名词。句意：其次，某个动物群体必须有足够的多样性，也就是说动物的基因排列方式不同，因此能帮助他们战胜疾病，然而，经过克隆的动物群体的最大缺点是：它们的基因排列有可能完全相同，因而它们有可能会死于同一种疾病。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填名词作宾语，结合所给句意可知，此处应填名词复数形式表示泛指，所以应填illnesses。故填illnesses。
【48题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：第三，找到合适恐龙生活的栖息地很难。分词句子成分可知，it作形式主语，动词不定式为真正的主语，所以应填t find。故填t find。
【49题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：就我们现在所知道的而言，不可能克隆那些已经绝种了一万年以上的动物。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填宾语从句的引导词，且从句中缺少宾语，所以应填what，指代“我们知道的事情”。故填what。
【50题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：所以说恐龙回归地球的可能性仅仅是个梦想罢了。分析句子成分可知，空格处应填动名词作介词f的宾语，且与逻辑主语dinsaurs之间的关系为主动，所以应填returning。故填returning。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了加利福尼亚和西班牙的渊源及西班牙文化对加利福尼亚的深刻影响。
【详解】1.考查序数词。句意：尽管加州是美国第三大州，但它拥有最多的人口，成为最多元文化的社会，吸引了来自世界各地的移民，其中就有西班牙人。主语为Califrnia，所以此处是指尽管加州是美国第三大州，所以应用序数词third。故将three改为third。
2.考查定语从句。句意：尽管加州是美国第三大州，但它拥有最多的人口，成为最多元文化的社会，吸引了来自世界各地的移民，其中就有西班牙人。在非限制性定语从句中，关系词作介词amng的宾语，且先行词为immigrants，所以应用关系代词whm。故将which改为whm。
3.考查名词复数。句意：在第一批前往加利福尼亚的西班牙人中，大多数是信教的人，他们的工作是向当地人传授天主教。根据主语the majrity可知，此处man应用复数。故将man改为men。
4.考查冠词。句意：在第一批前往加利福尼亚的西班牙人中，大多数是信教的人，他们的工作是向当地人传授天主教。在定语从句中，whse后不能用定冠词。故将the去掉。
5.考查一般过去时的被动语态。句意：在十八世纪，加利福尼亚是由西班牙统治的。根据“In the eighteenth century”可知，此处应用一般过去时。根据“by Spain”可知，此处应用被动语态。主语Califrnia为第三人称单数。故在ruled前加was。
6.考查名词。句意：1821年，墨西哥人民脱离西班牙获得独立。作动词gain的宾语应用名词。名词independence意为“独立”。故将independent改为independence。
7.考查介词和固定搭配。句意：1846年，美国对墨西哥宣战，在输掉战争后，墨西哥不得不把加利福尼亚给了美国。declare war n意为“对……宣战”，为固定搭配，所以应用介词n。故将t改为n。
8.考查动名词。句意：1846年，美国对墨西哥宣战，在输掉战争后，墨西哥不得不把加利福尼亚给了美国。在介词after后应用动名词作宾语。故将lse改为lsing。
9.考查副词。句意：然而，西班牙的影响仍然很大。“there is still a strng Spanish influence”和“Mexic had t give Califrnia t the USA”构成转折关系，所以应用副词hwever表示“然而”。故将Therefre改为Hwever。
10.考查形容词性物主代词。句意：今天，超过40%的加利福尼亚人把西班牙语作为他们的第一或第二语言。根据“ver frty percent f the Califrnians”可知，此处是指把西班牙语作为他们的第一或第二语言，所以应用形容词性物主代词their表示“他们的”。故将ur改为their。
