Forexample, do you avoid saying the word“four ” to avoid bad luck? If so, you havea superstition （ 迷信）. And you re not alone all kinds of people have them.For example, Portugal s soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo always steps ontothe pitch （ 球场） with his right foot first, according toThe Telegraph . And sportsplayers are not alone in having superstitions. A visitor once asked the Nobel Prize winning scie ntist Niels Bohr whether he really believed that the horseshoe hed hung at his country home was lucky.“Of course not, ” the Danish physicist said. “ButI understand its lucky whether you believe in it or not. ”One recent study found that even scientists at MIT and other top USschools tended to look for a meaning in natural events, similar to the connection between stepping on the pitch and playing soccer well, according to The Atlantic . Whenthe researchers gave the scientists little time to answer questions, they were twice as likely to agree with statements such as“Trees produce oxygen so that animals can breathe” as they were when they had more time to think about their reply.It seems that fear can make people think differently in this way, too. In a British study, students imagined meeting a “witch ” who said she would cast （施魔法 ） an evil spell（ 符咒 ） on them. About half said a scientist should not be worried about the spell. Yet each of them said that, personally, they wouldnt let the witch do it to them.So why are so many of us superstitious? Well, it seems to be our way of dealing with the unknown. “Many people quite simply just want to believe,” Brian Cronk,a professor of psychology at Missouri Western State University, said in a 2008 interview. “The human brain is always trying to work out why things happen, and when the reason is not clear, we tend to make up some pretty bizarre （古怪的 ）explanations. ”And these explanations aren t completely unhelpful. In fact, superstitions can sometimes work and bring real luck, according to psychologists at the University of Cologne in Germany in the May 2010 issue of the journalPsychological Science . Theyfound that believing in something can improve performance on a task like an exam.So, what about you? What superstitions do you follow to keep you safe and successful?21. The author mentions avoiding saying the word four in the opening paragraph toA. show how foolish it is to believe in superstitionsB. introduce the readers to the topic of superstitionsC. discuss the scientific reasons behind superstitionsD. prove that it is reasonable to be superstitious22. How many superstitious practices are mentioned in the passage?A. 3 B. 2 C. 4 D. 523. What s the author s attitude to superstitions?A. Unknown. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Neutral.24. What is the best title of the article?A. Why superstitions are commonB. How superstitions affect our daily livesC. How some common superstitions came into beingD. How to get rid of superstitions【答案】 21. B 22. A 23. D 24. A 【解析】本文是一篇生活类文章，通过几个迷信现象和研究说明了我们生活中的迷信行为为 何如此普遍。21. 推理判断题。根据第一段中的If so, you have a superstition. And you re notalone all kinds of people have them. ”可知， 作者提到避免提到象征着不好运气的“四” 就是为了引出迷信这个话题，故 B 项正确。22. 细节理解题。第一段中提到了人们避免提到“四”，第二段中提到了葡萄牙球星克里斯蒂亚诺罗纳尔多进入球场是总是先迈右脚及诺贝尔奖获得者Niels Bohr 认为马掌吉祥物象征着好运，由此可知，文章一共提到了三种迷信行为，故A项正确。23. 观点态度题。根据文章内容可知，作者只是客观地陈述几种迷信现象，并没有表明自己相信或者反对迷信，由此可见作者对迷信的态度是中立的，故D项正确。24. 主旨大意题。 根据文章内容， 特别是第五段中的“ So why are so many of us superstitious?Well, it seems to be our way of dealing with the unknown.”可知，本文通过几个迷信现象和研究说明了我们生活中的迷信行为为何如此普遍，故A项作标题最能概括出文章内容。BThe entire house was lit with lights. It was Meera s wedding the next day. Seema walked to her daughters bedroom. Meera was not there, so she left the envelope on Meera s bed and went away. When Meera came back after a bath downstairs, her eyes fell on the envelope.

This Ml help in building trust between you. Similarly, offer her your help when she s busy cooking. Thus, a new relationship -will be born: one of respect and understanding.Finally, respect your husband, as hes your life partner. Rememberthat a marriage re-quires trust, love and compromise （妥协 ）.I could have sat with you and told you, but I felt that writing all this down would make you understand better and I m sure you ll give your whole heart to thisrelationship.

To such a good man ”可知，妈妈很高兴她的女儿可以嫁给一个这么好的男人，据此推断妈妈对女儿 的丈夫 Vinod 很满意。故选 A。27. 考察细节推断，由倒数第三段“ If she offers help, accept it. This may help in building trust between you”可知，妈妈建议女儿最好接受她婆婆在烹调方面的帮助，这可以帮助女儿和婆婆建立信任关系。因此选D。CLaughter Yoga（ 瑜伽 ） is one form of yoga. Madan Kataria, a doctor in Mumbai, India invented it.

Look around at your fellow passengers on the Tube（地铁）or the bus. Theyre of every skin color and dress differently to one another. Listen, and youll hear many other languages besides English spoken. Some of these people, no doubt, will be tourists who are in London to see the sights. But othersin fact probably most will be living their lives there, along with millio nsof others.Along with white British people, there are Britons from, or with parents and grandparents from, the Caribbean, India, China and most other places. This makes London a fascinating place in which to live. The reason is that when people settle in a place, they dont just buy a house and live there, but bring aspects of the culture of their“old country ” with them.The most visible sign of this is the number of restaurants offering dishes fromdifferent parts of the world. In a city in which its estimated 250 differentlanguagesare spoken, you can expect a similarlywide range of foods to be available.You wouldexpect in one of the worlds leading cities to encounter（遇到） French, Italian,Chinese and Indian eateries. But in London youll also find Polish, Patagonian andPalestinian restaurants.However, Londons multiculturalism isnt just about food. Many types of peopleare gathered in one space, but the way they live differently shows in that space.They worship（ 崇拜 ）differently, for one thing. Alongside the famous old Englishchurches by Nicholas Hawksmoor and Christopher Wren- responsible for one of thecapitals most famous landmark, St Pauls Cathedralyoull find mosques（ 清真寺 ）,temples and synagogues （ 犹太教堂 ）.London even speaks its own special kind of English. Language experts created the term “Multicultural London English ” to identify the dialect of English that appeared at the end of the last century.All of this makes London a very surprising and varied place to call your home.But, in a way, this has long been true. In the 18th century, the compiler（ 编纂者 ） ofthe first English dictionary, Samuel Johnson, once said: “ He who is tired of London is tired of life. ”32. By describing the situation on the Tube and bus, the author intends to A. show that London is a multicultural cityB. explain why London appeals to touristsC. prove that London is a great place to live inD. inform us of how the population of Britain is made up33.

Which of the following could be used as proof of Londons multiculturalism?A. The city is home to the famous building St Pauls CathedralB. The city has become a favorite destination for tourists abroadC. There are a variety of French restaurants in the cityD. A new London dialect has appeared in recent years.35. Samuel Johnson is mentioned in the last paragraph to A. show what London was like in the 18th centuryB. prove the cultural diversity of London from a historical aspect.C. inform the readers what to expect in LondonD. introduce the first English dictionary he compiled.【答案】 32.
