This country is Bhutan, “Land of the Thunder Dragon”, which is located in South Asia and is enpassed by India, China, and Nepal.Bhutan is the last standing Buddhist Kingdom in the World and, until recently, has preserved much of their culture since the l7th century by avoiding globalization and staying isolated from the world. Internet, television, and western dress were banned from the country up until ten years ago. Over the past ten years globalization has begun to change in Bhutan, but things remain perfectly balanced.Bhutan is the only country in the world that has a GNH, which refers to “Gross National Happiness.The process of measuring GNH began when Bhutan opened up to globalization. It measures peoples quality of life, and makes sure that “material and spiritual development happen together.”Bhutan has done an amazing job of finding this balance. Bhutan has continually been ranked as the happiest country in all of Asia, and the eighth Happiest Country in the world according to Business Week. In xx, Bhutan had the second fastest growing GDP in the world, at the same time as maintaining their environment and cultural identity.In xx,in Bhutans first democratic election,28-year-old Jigme KhesarNamgyel Wang Chuck was elected president of Bhutan. He promises to “maintain a stance (立场)of protection against the worst aspects of globalization, maintaining the Gross National Happiness.”But Jigme himself is no stranger to globalization. He attended high school at Phillips Academy and university at Wheaton College and then graduated from Oxford.4. The underlined word “enpassed in the first paragraph most probably means _ . A. coveredB. surroundedC. separatedD. guarded5. Why is Bhutan regarded as “the happiest country”?A. Because it changes its policy and begins to open up.B. Because it uses “GNH” to measure its achievement.C. Because it stresses both material and spiritual development.D. Because it has the second fastest growing GDP in the world.6. What Can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The election in Bhutan is far from satisfactory.B. Globalization has influenced Bhutans religion.C. Jigmes educational background will cause distrust.D. People in Bhutan will continue living a happy life.7. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?CTurning the lights out or wearing a blindfold while eating could be a quick way to lose weight, according to scientists. The simple trick works because it stops diners eating for pleasure rather than for calories. It also triggers (引发) a part of the brain that is worried that unseen food may go bad.An experiment by the University of Konstanz, in Germany, found that people who were blindfolded consumed nine percent fewer calories before they felt full, pared to those who could see. They also vastly overestimated how much they had eaten because they could not see how much was left on the plate. Blindfolded volunteers estimated they had eaten 88 percent more than they actually had.Scientists believe that not seeing food on the table also allows the body to know when it is full in real time rather than remembering past experiences where it might have taken a full plate to feel full. In the experiment, 50 people were blindfolded and 40 were allowed to see their food. All were told not to eat within two hours of the experiment. They were then given three 95g bowls of chocolate ice-cream and invited to eat for 15 minutes. Their bowls were taken away and the remaining ice-cream weighed, while the participants were quizzed on how much they thought they had eaten.On average the group who could see ate 116g while the blindfolded groups ate 105g. However, the blindfolded group believed they had eaten 197g while pared with 159g for the non-blind volunteers. They were also asked how pleasant the ice-cream tasted and the blindfolded group rated lower than those who could see.“The experienced pleasure of eating was significantly lower in the blindfolded group. Not seeing the food might have decreased the appetite. Sight plays an important role in the eating experience and in the overall dining experience.”Previous studies have shown that the visual influence of food plays a large part in the taste. While restaurants that allow diners to eat in the dark state that it triggers other senses, in fact eating in darkness is likely to taste far milder than usual.8. With the lights out, diners eat less partly because_.A. they want to quickly finish their mealsB. they trust their feelings more than everC. they focus more on fun than the caloriesD. they worry about the quality of the food9. We can learn from the passage that the blindfolded group _.A. spent a much longer time eating the same foodB. believed they ate more than they really didC. depended on past experiences to feel fullD. thought the food tasted better than usual 10. The last two paragraphs tell us that_.A. diners are likely to lose their appetite eating in darknessB. senses rather than sight play an important role in the tasteC. findings of this experiment differ from the previous studiesD. restaurants benefit a lot from allowing diners to eat in the dark11. The main purpose of the passage is to _.A. provide statistics related to eating in the darkB. offer reasons for people to eat in the dark areasC. inform the readers of the result of an experiment D. persuade the readers to lose weight in a new wayDWhy do we laugh and get amusement from so many different things, from puns (双关语) to pratfalls? Why are some things funny to some people and not to others? How is that while a successful joke can cause pleasure, a sick one can cause serious harm? Over the centuries, various scholars have attempted to produce a universally agreed-upon theory of humor. Plato and Aristotle introduced the superiority(优越感) theory, the idea that people laugh at the misfortune of others. Their theory seems to explain teasing, but it doesnt work well for knock-knock jokes. Sigmund Freud argued for his relief theory, the concept that humor is a way for people to release psychological tension and reveal their inner fears and desires. His theory works well for dirty jokes, less well for most puns.The majority of humor expels today agree with the incongruity theory, the idea that humor arises when theres a gap between what people expect to happen and what actually happens. Incongruity has a lot going for it jokes with unexpected funny lines, for example, fit well. But scientists have found that in edy, unexpectedness is overvalued.With the goal of developing a new, more satisfactory explanation, I produced “the gentle violation(违背)theory”, the idea that humor arises when something seems wrong or threatening, but is actually OK or safe. A dirty joke, for example, trades on moral or social violations, but its only going to get a laugh if the person listening is open enough to consider the subject OK to talk about. Similarly, puns can be seen as linguistic violations that still make grammatical sense.And while most humor theories have struggled to account for tickling (挠痒痒), or just avoided the phenomenon altogether, my theory accounts for even this kind of laughter. Tickling involves violating someones physical space in a gentle way. People cant tickle themselves because it isnt a violation.12. What is the authors attitude towards Plato and Aristotles theory?A. Critical.B. ApprovingC. uncaringD. Unclear13. According to Sigmund Freuds theory, we can infer that _ .A. people will laugh when they see others sufferB. telling dirty jokes is a relief of ones nervous feelings C. unexpectedness can explain how humor worksD. tickling doesnt involve psychological tension14. According to the author, why are some things funny to some people but not to others?A. Because the sense of humor varies greatly from person to person.B. Because people have different expectations for the same thing.C. Because some people lack the sense of safety deep in their heart.D. Because peoples understanding of violation is different.15. What is the authors main purpose of writing this passage?A. To draw peoples attention to the research of humor.B. To criticize peoples misconceptions about humor.C. To explain what exactly causes people to laugh.D. To prove the sense of humor can be developed.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。“So, what are you doing after graduation?” Many juniors and seniors get bored answering that question over and over.

Obviously, the strategy works. Recent research shows that 42 majority of adults cant translate the meaning of mon slang.In a survey of 4,500 people last month, it 43 (find) that 85% of adults didnt understand accepted translations of emoji (表情符号) and text. The researchers warned that a lack 44 awareness of what children are municating online can leave them unprotected, with phrases that express eating disorders and unhappiness not 45 (understand).For young people growing up with technology, this new language es 46 (natural), but its leaving some adults unsure about what is being said by their children online. 47 is important for adults to speak to young people about how they use social media and chat online.Caroline Bunting, general manager at Internet Matters, said, “While it is unrealistic to expect parents 48 (know) every piece of Internet slang their children will ever see, online 49 (safe) starts with a conversation. Its vital for parents to talk to their kids about their digital worlds, including the sorts of 50 (thing) they might experience online and the types of problems to be aware of.”第四部分语法单句填空 (共20小题;每小题l分,满分20分)51.
