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 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Reading may be fundamental, but hw the brain gives meaning t letters n a page has been a mystery. Tw new studies fill in sme details n hw the brains f efficient readers handle wrds. One f the studies, published in the April 30 Neurn, suggests that a visual-prcessing area f the brain recgnizes cmmn wrds as whle units. Anther study, published nline April 27 in PLOSONE, makes it knwn that the brain perates tw fast parallel systems fr reading, linking visual recgnitin f wrds t speech.
Maximilian Riesenhuber, a neurscientist at Gergetwn University in Washingtn, D. C, wanted t knw whether the brain reads wrds letter by letter r recgnizes wrds as whle bjects. He and his clleagues shwed sets f real wrds r nnsense(无意义的词语)wrds t vlunteers underging fMRI scans. The wrds differed in nly ne letter, such as “farm” and “frm” r “sat” and “pat”, r were cmpletely different, such as “farm” and “cat” r “pat” and “hime”. The researchers were particularly interested in what happens in the visual wrd frm area, r VWFA, an area n the left side f the brain just behind the ear that is invlved in recgnizing wrds.
Riesenhuber and his clleagues fund that neurns(神经元)in the VWFA respnd strngly t changes in real wrds. Changing “farm” t “frm”, fr example, prduced as great a change in activity as changing “farm” t” cat”, the team reprts in Neurn. The area respnded slwly t single-letter changes in made-up wrds.
The data suggests that readers grasp real wrds as whle bjects, rather than fcusing n letters r letter cmbinatins. And as a reader’s expsure t a wrd increases, the brain cmes t recgnize the shape f the wrd. Meaning is passed n after recgnitin in the brain, Riesenhuber says.
The researchers dn’t yet knw hw lnger and less familiar wrds are recgnized, r if the brain can be trained t recgnize nnsense wrds as a unit.
Riesenhuber’s research prbably fcuses n whether the brain ______.
handles nnsense wrds as a unit
perates tw fast parallel systems fr reading
takes lnger t read less familiar wrds r nt
recgnizes wrds as a unit r reads them letter by letter.
Riesenhuber and his clleagues carried ut their research by ______.
shwing pairs f different wrds
arranging the wrds in different rder
giving pairs f real wrds ttally different
making vlunteers read sme lnger wrds
Riesenhuber’s research is significant in that it shws hw the brain ______.
A.respnds t familiar wrds B. recgnizes the frm f a wrd
C. relates meaning t letters D. reacts t made-up wrds
B
Over the past cuple f days,n ur lcal Freecycle page there have been a lt f wanted psts, all frm the same persn, basically asking fr everything yu’d need t set up a huse frm scratch.
One f the things they asked fr was a queen-sized bed. At that time we just happened t have an extra ne, s I messaged them. They immediately came in the afternn. The peple wh came, tw ladies and a man, are actually friends f anther wman named Jenny wh wned a yung by. This wman has escaped frm a dangerus, vilent relatinship and these friends f hers are helping her and her sn start ver again, with everything frm furniture t tthbrushes n their list f needs.
While they were here, I als gave them ne f ur spare bkcase and sme cffee cups. I even asked them t keep in tuch in case they needed anything else—I have a way f cnnecting peple with things. I ffered the wman a cupbard we had as well; her friends just needed t see if there was a place r a need fr it in their friend's new hme.
I was s excited t meet thse lving peple, wh were bviusly willing t help their friend. It was clear hw prtective they felt f this wman and her by, hw much they lve her and wanted her t have a happy and safe life, and t spend even a few minutes with peple like that is an experience I’ll remember fr a lng, lng time.
A quick thank-yu t all wh have sent mre dnatins ver the last cuple f days, as well as lvely messages f thanks and blessings. Smetimes it’s hard t keep up with it all, but it’s a prblem I’m happy t have.

A. N pains, n gainsB. Gd helps thse wh help themselves

C
When yu start wrking n smething but dn't finish it, thughts f the unfinished wrk cntinue t jump int yur mind even when yu've mved n t ther things. Psychlgists (心理学家) refer t this psychlgical phenmenn as the Zeigarnik effect. The effect was first bserved by a Russian psychlgist named Bluma Zeigarnik. While sitting in a busy restaurant in Vienna, she nted the waiters had better memries f unpaid rders. Once the bill was paid, hwever, the waiters had difficulty remembering the exact details f the rders.
In research, participants were asked t cmplete simple tasks such as putting tgether puzzles, r slving math prblems. Half f the participants were interrupted halfway thrugh these tasks. After an hur-lng delay, Zeigarnik asked the participants t give an accunt f what they'd been wrking n. She discvered that thse wh had their wrk interrupted were twice as likely t remember what they had been ding as thse wh had actually cmpleted the tasks.
We can use this effect t ur advantage. Fr example, if yu're struggling t memrize smething imprtant, mmentary interruptins might actually wrk t yur advantage. Rather than simply remember the infrmatin ver and ver again, review it several times and then take a break. While yu're fcusing n ther things, yu'll find yurself mentally returning t the infrmatin yu were studying.
We ften put ff tasks until the last mment, nly cmpleting them in a rush at the last pssible mment. Unfrtunately, this tendency can lead t heavy stress and even pr perfrmance. One way t vercme this is t put the Zeigarnik effect t wrk. Start by taking the first step, n matter hw small. Once yu've begun—but nt finished—yur wrk, yu'll find yurself thinking f the task until, at last, yu finish it. Yu might nt finish it all at nce, but each small step yu take puts yu clser t yur final gal.
28.What des the Zeigarnik effect refer t?
A.Waiters tend t have gd memries.
B. Once interrupted, ne will frget things easily.
C. Mst peple can't fcus n ne thing fr a lng time.
D. Peple remember unfinished tasks better than cmpleted nes.
29. What were all the participants required t d in the study?
A. Describe their tasks.
B. Express their feelings.
C. Test their intelligence.
D. Design simple activities.
30. Hw shuld we study accrding t the Zeigarnik effect?
A. Repeat ver and ver again.
B. Divide up ur study sessin.
C. Fcus n several tasks at a time.
D. Have enugh rest befre studying.
31. What's the main idea f the last paragraph?
A. Hw t get rid f heavy stress.
B. Why we shuld set a final gal.
C. Hw t break the habit f delaying wrk.
D. Why we always cmplete tasks in a rush.
D
The Silk Rad is arguably the mst famus lng-distance trade rute f the ancient wrld. This passage cnnected Eurpe in the West with China in the East, and allwed the exchange f gds, technlgy, and ideas between the tw civilizatins. Althugh merchants culd make huge prfits travelling the rad, it was nt withut risk.
The main Silk Rad started in Chang’an (knwn tday as Xi’an), the early Han capital. Travelers cmmencing their jurney frm this city culd take a nrthern rute that wuld take them acrss China’s nrthwestern prvinces. After this, they wuld face the Gbi Desert, arguably the greatest danger f the Silk Rad.
The Gbi Desert, the largest desert in Asia, cnsists mainly f rcky, hard earth. This feature made it easier fr traders t travel acrss, cmpared t sandy deserts like the neighbring Taklamakan Desert. Like ther deserts, the Gbi Desert is dry and ht, and therefre the biggest challenge travelers faced was btaining enugh water fr themselves as well as fr their camels.
S, rest stps were created alng the rute, allwing travelers t rest, eat and drink. These places als prmted the exchange f gds, and even ideas, amngst the travelers wh stpped there. Usually, the rest stps were placed within a day’s jurney f each ther. In this way, travelers culd avid spending t much time in the desert, which wuld make them targets fr rbbers, anther danger f the Silk Rad.
Once thrugh the Gbi Desert, travelers wuld cntinue their jurney int Iran, Turkey, and finally Eurpe. Whilst this part f the jurney may have been less dangerus, it is nt entirely withut its perils.
32.The underlined wrd “it” in the first paragraph refers t .
A. making huge prfits B. traveling the Silk Rad
C. exchanging gds and ideas D. cnnecting different civilizatins
33.Why was the Gbi Desert easier t crss than ther deserts?
A.The desert’s surface was easier t walk n.
B.Camels fr transprtatin were easier t find.
C.It was smaller and culd be crssed in less time.
D.There were mre natural water surces available.
34.What can we guess abut the rest stps in the Gbi Desert?
A.Travelers were ffered free accmmdatin.
B.They were lcated arund the edges f the desert.
C.Travelers staying there were ften attacked by criminals.
D.They were shared by travelers frm different cuntries.
35.What is the passage mainly abut?

Lenard da Vinci and Nature
In the mdern wrld, art and science are tw very separate activities, but in Lenard’s time they were clsely cnnected. Science meant mathematics and medical studies. 36 Mathematics included practical wrk like surveying land fr making maps as well as measuring the mvements f the stars in the sky. An artist might need t measure the different parts f the bdy. He culd als use mathematics t place things in relatinship t each ther in a drawing r painting s the scene lked crrect. 37
Mathematics was als cnnected t music because musical sunds have a fixed relatinship with each ther that can be described in numbers. 38 Mre than this, thugh, Lenard believed that numbers were a part f all things in the wrld, including music, and he said that “withut them nthing can be dne.”
“Nature has kindly given us things everywhere t cpy,” wrte Lenard. In all his activities, Lenard was trying t discver the rules that cntrl nature. In his search fr thse rules, he lked very carefully at a lt f examples and details. Actual experience was mre imprtant t him than pinin, and he wrked frm facts t ideas. 39 His purpse was t examine the wrld s he culd cpy it in beautiful paintings and sculptures. He als wanted t learn frm the clever slutins f nature.
40 His quick little sketches, ften dne while wandering utside, helped him t catch a mvement r a shape. Mre careful drawings wuld be dne at a desk with a pen and ruler. In July 2001, a small drawing by Lenard was sld fr $12 millin. It was the mst expensive drawing in the wrld.
A. Lenard was always drawing.
B.Hw culd these be cnnected with art?
C.Lenard’s ideas were vastly ahead f his time.
D.Mathematicians and dctrs wrked t discver the unknwn.
E.Abve all, Lenard wanted t understand hw and why things wrked.
F.Yu will see a gd example f such psitining in the painting f The Last Supper.
G.Lenard himself was a very gd musician and liked t play an instrument and sing.
