Perhaps it doesnt need to feel this way. Our experience of time can be possibly changed. By understanding the psychological (心理学的) processes behind our different experiences of time, we might be able to slow down time a little.One basic law of psychological time is that time seems to slow down when were exposed (接触) to new environments and experiences. The law is caused by the relationship between our experience of time and the amount of information our minds process. The more information our minds take in, the slower time seems to pass.It follows, then, that we have different experiences of time in different situations. In some situations, our life is full of new experiences. Our minds process a lot of information and time seems to slow down. In other situations, we have fewer new experiences and the world around us becomes more and more familiar (熟悉的). We become insensitive to our experience, which means we process less information, and time seems to speed up.How can we slow down time? Here are two suggestions.Firstly, since we know that familiarity makes time pass faster, we can expose ourselves to as many new experiences as possible. We can give ourselves new challenges, meet new people, and expose our minds to new information, hobbies and skills. This will increase the amount of information our minds process and expand (增加) our experience of time.Secondly, and perhaps most effectively, we can give our whole attention to an experience-to what we are seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling or hearing. This means living through our senses rather than through our thoughts. For example, on the way home, focus your attention outside of yourself, instead of thinking about the problems you have to deal with. Look at the sky, or at the buildings you pass, traveling among them. This open attitude to your experiences helps take in more information and also has a time-expanding effect.To a certain degree, we can understand and control our experience of time passing. Its possible for us to slow down time by expanding our experience of time.（1）According to the writer, we can expand our experience of time by _. A . going to bed on timeB . traveling to new placesC . having dinner as usualD . printing the same materials（2）What can we learn from the passage? A . Being familiar with the world around helps us get more information.B . Understanding psychological time makes life pass more quickly.C . We can take in more information by living through our senses.D . We should build a stronger relationship between time and us.（3）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A . Slow Down TimeB . Only Time Will TellC . Race Against TimeD . Time Will Not Come Twice五、 阅读短文，回答问题 (共1题；共25分)7. （25分）任务型阅读You run among crowded people in a railway station, only to find that the train has left. Do you feel depressed(沮丧的)? Probably. But if you are in France, someone may play the piano for you. It might be a performance of Chopins Fantaisie-Impromptu or the Pirates of the Caribbean theme song. To our surprise, it is not performed by a paid musician or a street entertainer asking for coins. Instead, a passer-by jams (即兴演奏) on the piano in the station.The national railroad company SNCF has put pianos in nearly 100 stations across France. They are rented from Yamaha Corporation. The first piano was set up in the Gare Montparnasse in Paris in 2012.The pianos have proved to be very popular. In 2014, the SNCF and Yamaha organized a nationwide contest called Your Turn to Play. It asked participants to upload (上传) video clips of themselves using one of the pianos. At last, about 900 people took part in the contest.So if you miss a train in France one day, perhaps someone will be playing your favourite piece, and that will reduce your anxiety (焦虑) a bit. Or perhaps youll sit down, roll up your sleeves and play your sadness away yourself.（1）If you miss a train in France, who may play the piano for you? （2）When was the first piano set up in the Gare Montparnasse in Paris? （3）What was the name of the contest organized by the SNCF and Yamaha in 2014? （4）Why has the company SNCF put pianos in nearly 100 stations across France? （5）If possible, would you like to jam on the piano in such stations? Why or why not? 六、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)8. （5分）你的英语非常优秀, 学校请你和七年级的同学做一次英语学习经验交流。请根据下列提示，写一份80词左右的发言稿。提示:1）When did you begin to learn English?2）Why do you like English?3）How do you study English well?4）take part in/join, follow the tape, keep a diary in English, remember words .第 12 页 共 12 页参考答案一、 完形填空 (共1题；共10分)1-1、二、 阅读理解 (共3题；共26分)2-1、2-2、2-3、3-1、3-2、3-3、3-4、3-5、4-1、4-2、4-3、4-4、4-5、三、 语法填空 (共1题；共5分)5-1、5-2、5-3、5-4、5-5、四、 阅读短文，判断正误 (共1题；共6分)6-1、6-2、6-3、五、 阅读短文，回答问题 (共1题；共25分)7-1、7-2、7-3、7-4、7-5、六、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)8-1、
