Besides, I dont know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. Its best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school， I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didnt really know anyone. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will bee easier before you know it.David, Aged 19Im not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening (令人恐惧的). But youll get used to it. Dont be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know youre afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week， its really not bad at all. Dont worry.21. What can we infer from Sharon about high school?A. Teachers are quite strict.B. Students often stay up at night.C. Teachers provide little care for students.D. Students should make good use of their time.22. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A. Excited. B. Bored.C. Worried. D. Relaxed.23. Who mentions the importance of friends?A. Frank. B. David.C. Sharon. D. Eddie.【答案】21. D 22. C 23.BBIts time for those who are about to graduate to look for jobs since graduation season is drawing near. petition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices. Whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not.A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for panies to discourage visible tattoos (文身), nose rings, or certain dress styles. It is true you cant judge a book by its cover, yet people do cover themselves in order to convey (传递) certain messages. What we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we areJust as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances, so do panies. Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept.Others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. Most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees, because those people represent the panies to their customers.As a hiring manager I am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. There are plenty of well-qualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customersEven though I am open-minded, I cant expect all our customers are.There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. No pany should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.24. Which of the following is the newspaper editors opinion according to Paragraph 2?A. Peoples appearances carry messages about themselves.B. Customers choices influence dress standards in panies.C. Candidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly treated.D. Strange dress styles should not be encouraged in the workplace.25. What can be inferred from the text?A. Candidates have to wear what panies prefer for an interview.B. Hiring managers make the best impression on their candidates.C. panies sometimes have to change to respect their candidates.D. What to wear is not a matter of personal choice for panies.26.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Employees MatterB. Appearances MatterC. Personal Choices MatterD. Hiring Managers Matter27.The authors attitude towards strange dress styles in the workplace may best be described as _.A. enthusiastic B. positiveC. negative D. sympathetic【答案】24. C 25.D 26.B 27.CCDo you always agree to do things that you are unwilling to do? Are you the type of person who always says yes? Ive e to learn that it is very important to learn to say NO! Its okay. People are still going to like you. They may even respect you more because they know you are honest.Im not saying to say no to someone who really needs your help. Im talking about refusing that meeting that you really do not want to attend or that birthday party that you dont want to be a guest at.Think for a moment how you feel when you say YES to something that you really dont want to do. If youre like I once was，you cant sleep at night and you think about it too much. It weighs on your mind. You try to find ways out. Whatever youre saying to yourself，if you really wanted to go，you wouldnt have all of these thoughts.So，why not just say NO from the beginning? Maybe you feel like if you dont show up at the meeting (by the way，it is not the one you must attend) your boss isnt going to like you or your co-workers wont respect you. Maybe you feel as if your mom，dad or sisters wont love you as much if you dont do everything for them that they ask every occasion.If these people are your true friends，family members，or a good boss，they will like or love you the same no matter what. People treat you the way you teach them to, and if youre someone who always says yes, then thats what theyre expecting.You need to do what is right for you. Of course we do have real obligations in life to fulfill，but we do not have to do everything others want us to do.28.Which of the following statements would the writer agree with?A. We should try to do what our friends ask us to do.B. We should help others in need.C. Always saying no means you are brave.D. Always saying yes means you are dishonest.29. What does the underlined word It in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Saying yes.B. A friends birthday party.C. Something youre unwilling to do.D. Something you think difficult to do.30.The writer believes that if you say no to your family members，youll _.A. upset themB. disappoint themC. have a loose relationship with themD. have the same relationship with them as before31.What would be the best title for the passage?A. Learn to Make a Right ChoiceB. To Be YourselfC. Learn to Say NoD. Do What You Want to Do【答案】28.B 29.C 30.D 31. C D Remember those slow snails you often see on the ground after a rainy day? Well, these animals have made headlines recently with an astonishing discovery by UCLA researchers who were able to transfer(转移)memories from one snail to another! They experimented with sea snails because they have impressive memory habits and large neurons (神经元）which make them easier to work with. Dr. David Glanzman, who led the experiment, believes that RNA located in our brain cells is responsible for long-term memory. This went against the well-established belief that long-term memory was stored in the brains neuron synapses (突触）. For the experiment, scientists trained certain snails to develop a defensive reaction by contracting (收缩） whenever they were pushed. Originally, the action would last for a few seconds, but by consistently shocking the snails, their contracting period grew to last a lot longer, up to 50 seconds. Then, they took RNA from brain cells of the trained snails and put them in untrained cells. When these new cells were put back into the untpined snails，these sea snails started exhibiting immediate behaviors that were as if they had been trained to develop long defensive reactions! This was shocking as these memories were extremely specific. This showed that RNA transfer might influence our memory by, finishing a memory transfer. David Glanzman believes once we get a deeper insight on how memory functions，it can help us better understand illnesses that are deeply affected by our memories and how we react to past experiences. However, Glanzman9 s experiment is still highly controversial as many believe that the human brain is )much more plex than those of the snails and that we may not find similar associations such as memory transfer. There is still much to discover about how our brains function and Glanzmans experiment just proves the mystical and interesting possibilities of the brain.32.Why did the researchers choose sea snails to experiment with? A. Their memories are stored in neuron synapses. B. Their RNA is responsible for long-term memory. C. Their memory is stronger than that of other animals.D.Their characteristics are suitable for the experiment.33. Which shows the correct order of the experiment stages?Put RNA into untrained brain cells.Untrained snails seem to have been trained.Trained snails show longer defensive period.Take RNA from the brain cells of trained snails.Certain snails are consistently pushed.Put cells with trained RNA into untrained snails.A.B.C. D.34. In what field does David Glanzman think his experiment might be useful?A.Understanding past experiences.B.StrengtheningchildrensC.Learning about memory-related diseases.D.Improving other animals memory, memory habits.35. Many people disapprove of the conclusion of the experiment because .A. the human brain is much more plexB. some memories can never be transferredC. human memory has much more informationD. the human brain shouldnt be used in such experiments 【答案】32.D 33.D 34.C 35.A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。Have you ever wondered how the trainers at Sea World get the 19,000-pound whale to jump 22 feet out of water and perform tricks? They get that whale to go over a rope farther out of the water than most of us can imagine. _36_.So how do the trainers at Sea World do it? The first thing they do is reinforce(强化) the behavior that they want repeated - in this case, to get the whale to go over the rope._37_, in a position where the whale cant help but do whats expected of it. Every time the whale goes over the rope, its given positive reinforcement and gets fed with fish. But what happened when the whale goes under the rope? Nothing no criticism, no warning and no feedback. _38_.Positive reinforcement is the key of that simple principle that produces such splendid results. And as the whale begins to go over the rope more often than under, the trainers begin to raise the rope. It must be raised slowly enough so that the whale doesnt starve._39_. Make a big deal out of the good and little stuff that we want consistently. Secondly, under-criticize. People know they need help when they mess up. _40_, people will not forget the event and usually will not repeat it.So we need to set up the circumstances so that people cant fail. Over-celebrate, under-criticizeand know how far to raise the rope.A. This is a great challengeB. And the whale stays right where it isC. If we figure out a way to motivate the whaleD. They start with the rope below the surface of the waterE. If we under-criticize, punish and discipline less than expectedF. Whales are taught that their negative behavior wont be acknowledgedG. The simple lesson to be learned from the whale trainers is to over-celebrate【答案】36. A 37. D 38. F 39. G 40.
