Where would you be most likely to find the two texts?A. On a notice board B. In a pany brochureC. On a teenage website D. In a college newspaperBWhen readers talk about famous British writer Agatha Christie, it seems that her famous detective novels featuring Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple are must-reads. So, of course, are her best-selling novels Murder on the Orient Express (1934) and Death on the Nile (1937). But when readers around the world were asked to name their favorite Christie novel to mark her 125th birthday in September, And Then There Were None (1939) topped the list, reported The Guardian. And the BBC TV adaptation of the novel will premiere on Dec 26. It may surprise you to learn that it is a crime novel without a detective. What it does have is suspense and a very sinister (邪恶的) atmosphere. In the story, a group of 10 people gets an invitation to e to a house on a small island near Devon in South West England. Nobody refuses these invitations since each one is promised something the person wants: a job, a holiday, a chance to meet up again with an old friend . These people are all responsible for deaths. Some are directly responsible, others are responsible because of what they did not do. Anthony James Marston, for instance, killed two children while driving dangerously. He did not feel guilty and actually plained when he was banned from driving. Another, Emily Caroline Brent, is a harsh person who threw out a young servant for being pregnant while unmarried. The servant later killed herself. When they arrive at the house they are played a recording. The voice gives details of the wrongdoing of each of the guests. Starting with Marston, each is killed in a way that fits his or her crime. The series of deaths is pleted with a hanging, “and then there were none”, as the title suggests. Some of Christies works have a predictable ending, but this book is full of clever writing. Look it up to find out what this hugely successful mystery writer, the “Queen of Crime” as she was called, could do at her best.4. All of the following are Agatha Christies works EXCEPT _.A. Queen of CrimeB. Death on the NileC. And Then There Were NoneD. Murder on the Orient Express5. According to the author, the title of the novel And Then There Were None suggests that _.A. no guests survive in the endB. no detectives appear in the novelC. there are no mysteries in the novelD. nobody is to blame for the deaths of the guests6. Which of following is TRUE about the novel And Then There Were None?A. All the people in the novel have killed someone before.B. Ten innocent people are killed on a small island.C. The people in the novel accept the invitations because of something they are offered.D. A detective finds out who is responsible for the peoples deaths in the end.7. Which is the closest meaning of the underlined word?A. suspect B. fiction C. uncertainty D. shock CChoosing the Right Resolution Millions of Americans began xx with the same resolution they started xx with, a goal of losing weight. However, setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake. To reach our goal of losing weight the output, we need to control what we eat the input . That is, we tend to care about the output but not to control the input. This is a bad way to construct goals. The alternative is to focus your resolution on the input. Instead of resolving to lose weight, try an actionable resolution: “Ill stop having dessert for lunch,” or “Ill walk every day for 20 minutes.” Creating a goal that focuses on a well-specified input will likely be more effective than concentrating on the oute. Recently a new science behind incentives (激励) , included in education, has been discussed. For example, researcher Roland Fryer wanted to see what works best in motivating children to do better in school. In some cases, he gave students incentives based on input, like reading certain books, while in others, the incentives were based on output, like results on exams. His main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect when based on output. Fryers conclusion was that the incentives for inputs might be more effective because students do not know how to do better on an exam, aside from general rules like “study harder.” Reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more control. As long as you have direct control over your goal, you have a much higher chance of success. And its easier to start again if you fail, because you know exactly what you need to do. If you want to cut down on your spending, a good goal would be making morning coffee at home instead of going to a cafe, for example. This is a well-specified action-based goal for which you can measure your success easily. Spending less money isnt a goal because its too general. Similarly, if you want to spend more time with your family, dont stop with this general wish. Think bout an actionable habit that you could adopt and stick to, like a family movie night every Wednesday. In the long run, these new goals could bee a habit.8. The writer thinks that setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake because _ .A. it is hard to achieve for most AmericansB. it is focused too much on the resultC. it is dependent on too many thingsD. it is based on actionable decisions9. In Roland Fryers research, some students did better than the others because _ .A. they obeyed all the general rulesB. they paid more attention to examsC. they were rewarded for reading some books D. they were motivated by their classmates10. According to the writer, which of the following statements is a good goal?A. “Ill give up desert.” B. “Ill study harder.”C. “Ill cut down my expense.”D. “Ill spend more time with my family.”11. The writer strongly believes that we should _ .A. develop good habits and focus on the outeB. pick specific actions that can be turned into good habitsC. be optimistic about final goals and stick to themD. set ambitious goals that can balance the input and outputDAre healthy people happier than seriously ill ones? Not necessarily. In a study described in The Journal of experimental Psychology, a group of people with end-stage kidney（肾）failure were provided with electronic devices that required them to record their moods at various times throughout the day. For parison, a group of healthy volunteers used the same devices. When researchers had studied the results, they found that the levels of happiness were about the same for the two groups.The researchers, led by Dr. Jason Riis of Princeton when he was a graduate student at the University of Michigan, also found that the healthy people greatly overestimated how unhappy the sick ones would be. And the sick people overestimated how happy healthy ones would be. For the study, 49 kidney disease patients who were undergoing dialysis（透析）sections three times a week were given personal digital assistants, as 49 healthy volunteers were matched to the patients by age, race, education and sex. When the devices beeped, the subjects were asked to rate their mood on a 5-point scale, with 2 defined as “very pleasant” and minus 2 defined as “very unpleasant”. On average, the kidney patients rated their mood as 0.70, while the healthy subjects rated it as 0.83. The participants were also asked to describe other emotions they might be feeling, including joy and anxiety, and to describe their levels of physical fort. And sometimes they were asked, “How do you feel about your life as a whole?”A better understanding of how well people are able to adapt to poor health, the researchers said, could help doctors and patients make wiser choices about their medical care. Earlier studies have also found that seriously ill patients described themselves as being happy. But these patients were not given a chance to answer questions about their mood privately and repeatedly over a period of time, Dr. Riis said, and so it was unclear how accurate their responses were.12. What can be learnt from the study?A. the electronic devices used are digital assistants for dialysisB. the levels of happiness are little affected by health conditions C. all the subjects are of the same age, race, sex and educationD. both patients and healthy people overestimate their own happiness 13. In the research, the subjects ratings of their mood levels were _ on average.A. vague B. negative C. positive D. neutral14. One of Dr. Riis concerns about the result of the research was whether _.A. it reflected what the patients really thought B. it revealed the patients privacy C. the questions for the patients were repeated D. the assignment for all subjects was accurate15. The research was done in order to_.A. help patients adapt to poor health B. learn patients average level of happinessC. find the distinction between the healthy and unhealthy people D. define the extent to which health condition affects happiness第二节 （共5小题，每小题3分，满分15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。VAR technology has been used in U.S. sports for years.
