　　(原创)People around the world are remembering Nelson Mandela, South Africa’s first black president. He died Thursday at the age of 95.

　　South African President Jacob Zuma said, “The nation has lost its greatest son, and our people have lost a father. ”

　　Mandela had been in poor health for several years. He was repeatedly treated in hospital, most recently for a lung infection. He became infected with tuberculosis(结核)many years ago while in prison.

　　Nelson Mandela was the main leader in efforts to end white minority rule in South Africa. He spent 27 years in prison for his part in fighting apartheid(种族隔离)—the nation’s policy of discrimination(歧视)against blacks.

　　Many world leaders, past and present, are remembering Nelson Mandela.

　　Frederick W. de Klerk was South Africa’s last apartheid leader. He freed Mandela from prison in 1990. Later, the two men won the Nobel Peace Prize. Mr. de Klerk said people will remember Mandela for the importance he placed on reconciliation(和解)—being able to reach a settlement between conflicting sides. He said their relationship was, in his words, “often stormy”, but he said they were “always able to come together at critical(关键的)moments. ”

　　In the United States, President Barack Obama called Mandela an influential, brave and profoundly good human being. Mr. Obama said Mandela will be remembered for leaving a free South Africa at peace. “I am one of the countless millions who drew inspiration from Nelson Mandela’s life. My very first political action—the first thing I ever did that involved an issue, or a policy, or politics—was a protest against apartheid. I would study his words and his writings. ”

　　In London, British Prime Minister David Cameron called Mandela a true global hero. In his words, a great light has gone out in the world.

　　56. Which is TRUE about Mandela?

　　A. He seldom received treatment in hospital.

　　B. He died in prison.

　　C. A lung infection caused Mandela’s death.

　　D. He died when he was still present.

　　57. What does the underlined word “stormy” in Para. 6 mean?

　　A. rainy

　　B. fierce

　　C. peaceful

　　D. challenging

　　58. What can we learn from the passage?

　　A. Frederick W. de Klerk is still an enemy of Mandela.

　　B. President Barack Obama learned a lot from Nelson Mandela’s life.

　　C. Nelson Mandela fought for the independence of South Africa.

　　D. Jacob Zuma called Mandela a true global hero.

　　When was the last time you did something really fun with one of your patents—just the two of you?

　　Parents who take their young children to music, swimming and art classes often stop arranging such activities once their kids are older and in school all day. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Doing something enjoyable with your kids just might make you look at each other in a new way, especially if you do it through a class or an event. When parent and child become students together, it puts them on the same level, at least for a while.

　　“I really like parents to come to class with their kids—they start sharing things and talking about what they’re doing and what they like, ”said art teacher Pyper Dixon.

　　However, finding something new in common is a big choice for them, especially when kids get involved in sports and other after-school activities. But it’s possible to learn a new skill or hobby together.

　　That’s certainly true of Lauren, 11, of Silver Spring, who is in Dixon’s class with her father, Dennis. “I was just going to drop her off, ”Dennis said, “but Dixon persuaded me to stay. ”

　　Now Lauren gets to nag her father about doing his art homework. “He always leaves it to the last minute, ”she said. “But then he’ll turn around to do amazing drawings, ”she added, “We have different styles of drawing, so it’s interesting to talk it over with him. ”

　　Without the Saturday morning art class, Dennis said, he would be reading the paper, and Lauren would be on her own in her room or on the computer. But they talk more now. “I can’t think of an experience where you communicate with your kid so closely, ”he said.

　　59. The author raises the question at the beginning to.

　　A. expect an answer

　　B. criticize some parents

　　C. introduce the topic

　　D. support his argument

　　60. What does Dixon think is the benefit of parent and child studying art together?

　　A. The two will become equal.

　　B. The two will communicate more.

　　C. The child will learn art much better.

　　D. The parent will learn something new.

　　61. The underlined word “nag” in the text probably means“”.

　　A. urge

　　B. help

　　C. ignore

　　D. teach

　　62. We can learn from the text that.

　　A. Lauren used to talk a lot with her father

　　B. Dennis enjoys studying art with Lauren

　　C. Lauren dislikes her father’s drawings

　　D. Dennis likes playing computer games

　　A pill costing little more than￡1 a day could save the lives of thousands suffering from a common heart disease. British doctors have decided to use the drug, ivabradine, to treat patients with heart failure straight away, even though it has not yet been licensed for the disease in the UK.

　　More than 700, 000 people live with heart failure, which occurs when the organ becomes too weak to pump blood efficiently round the body. This can lead to fatigue, breathlessness, increased heart rate and other serious complications. Around 100, 000 people a year are thought to die from heart failure and many patients are repeatedly admitted to hospital because of their symptoms.

　　The dramatic results from the trial of 6, 500 patients—the biggest of its kind—found a 26 percent cut in heart failure deaths, suggesting the lives of around 10, 000 British patients could be saved each year. The research also found ivabradine will help reduce the number of hospital admissions by 26 percent, which would cut costs.

　　The trial, carried out in 37 countries including the UK, showed particular benefits for patients who cannot take beta blockers(阻滞药). Beta blockers reduce the heart rate, giving it more time to fill with blood before the next beat. But in as many as 50 percent of patients beta blockers do not work or have unpleasant side effects.

　　All the patients in the trial had high heart rates of around 77 beats per minute on average. Ivabradine lowers the number of beats to around 60 per minute without reducing blood pressure, which means the damaged heart is pumping more efficiently at a slower rate.

　　Professor Cowie, consultant cardiologist(心脏病学家)at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London, said, “This is a very clean way of dropping the heart rate. Patients on beta blockers complain of tiredness and many stop taking it. ”At a very conservative estimate, prescribing ivabradine to eligible patients could save between 5, 000 and 10, 000 lives a year, he said.

　　63. Ivabradine used on patients suffering from heart failure can.

　　A. raise breath

　　B. increase heart rate

　　C. reduce blood pressure

　　D. improve the heart pump

　　64. We can learn from the underlined sentence that.

　　A. ivabradine can remove all the symptoms

　　B. ivabradine is effective in cleaning the heart

　　C. ivabradine is an environmentally friendly medicine

　　D. ivabradine has few side effects on heart failure patients

　　65. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?

　　A. To analyze a major study.

　　B. To praise some British doctors.

　　C. To introduce a drug for a heart disease.

　　D. To persuade us to use a new drug.

　　(2017·广州十校联考)

　　She’s not afraid of anything. Snakes? No problem. Walking alone in the dark? Easy. We’re not talking about a superhero here—SM is a 44-year-old mother.

　　And she’s fearless because she happens to be missing part of her brain: the amygdala(扁桃腺).

　　Shaped like a pair of almonds sitting in the middle of your brain, the amygdala helps control fear and anxiety. A rare condition called Urbach-Wiethe disease left SM without her amygdala, and seems to have completely erased her sense of fear.

　　To try to understand how the amygdala works, a team of researchers made their efforts to scare SM. They showed her horror movies and took her to the Waverly Hills Sanatorium Haunted House in Kentucky. She pushed out one of the monsters(怪物)and laughed. SM said she didn’t like snakes, but at a pet store full of poisonous creatures, she kept asking to touch them. When asked to rate her feelings, SM reported feeling surprised or disgusted, but never fearful.

　　“She tends to approach everything she should be avoiding, ”says Justin Feinstein of the

　　University of Iowa. This means the amygdala could control deeper urges to approach or avoid danger. Other scientists have a different opinion, though. “I don’t believe you can make a general statement about what the amygdala does by a single case study, ”Elizabeth Phelps said. In 2002, Phelps published a study on a similar patient with amygdala damage who still showed fear.

　　It may sound like fun to be totally fearless, but we get scared for a good reason. “The nature of fear is survival and the amygdala helps us stay alive by avoiding situations, people, or objects that put our life in danger, ”Feinstein said. SM was once followed in a park after dark by a man with a knife, and she simply walked away. “It is quite remarkable that she is still alive, ”said Feinstein.

　　66. SM dares to walk alone in the dark mainly because.

　　A. she is a superhero

　　B. she has experienced such conditions a lot

　　C. she is a mental patient

　　D. she has no sense of fear

　　67. Researchers tried their best to frighten SM in order to find.

　　A. the function of a particular organ

　　B. SM’s reaction of fear and anxiety

　　C. the process of removing amygdala

　　D. a special way to get along with monsters

　　68. What do we know from the research on SM?

　　A. It was easy for her to avoid danger.

　　B. SM never felt fearful but disgusted.

　　C. SM was frightened by nothing except monsters.

　　D. SM got along well with the snakes.

　　69. What is Elizabeth Phelps’ attitude towards the function of the amygdala based on the research on SM?

　　A. Indifferent.

　　B. Supportive.

　　C. Disapproving.

　　D. Interested.

　　70. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

　　A. People can remove their amygdala to be fearless.

　　B. SM will be admired because of her bravery.

　　C. No one can survive if their amygdala is removed.

　　D. The sense of fear is crucial to humans.

　　请认真阅读下列短文, 并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

　　注意: 每个空格只填一个单词。

　　Your brain and food

　　We all know that what you eat can change your physical appearance. It also changes how your body functions, making it more or less difficult to pump blood, grow healthy bones or process insulin(胰岛素).

　　New research presented this week at the Neuroscience 2017 conference suggests that what you eat can even change your brain and vice versa(反之亦然).

　　Timothy Verstynen and his colleagues used a machine to observe the brain activity in 29 adults. The study participants were shown words on a screen in various colors and asked to identify the color, not the word. Sometimes it was easy—the word red printed in red; other times it was harder, like seeing the word red printed in blue.

　　The overweight and obese participants’ brains showed more activity during difficult questions, suggesting they were working harder to get the same answers.

　　Verstynen said the results imply that obese people are less efficient at making complex decisions, which could be important for controlling foolish behavior.

　　His team theorizes that unhealthy eating choices can lead to disrupted(分裂的)brain connections that lead to weakened brain performance, which can lead to making more unhealthy choices.

　　In other words, it’s a bad cycle.

　　A second study, presented by Dr. Tony Goldstone, showed the brain’s orbitofrontal cortex(眶额叶皮质)may play a big role in how people make food choices. This area deals with the “value” of a food, Goldstone said—i. e. how rewarding or pleasurable it will be to eat.

　　Study participants were asked to eat nothing overnight. In the morning they were given a breakfast of about 700 calories and shown photos of food while connected to an MRI machine. They were asked to eat nothing again before another visit; the following morning they were not given breakfast and then shown the same photos.

　　The starving participants’ orbitofrontal cortices were activated when they were shown photos of high-calorie food. Their reaction was less strong after they had eaten breakfast.

　　The research suggests fasting or dieting increases the brain’s desire for high-calorie food.

　　“That’s one of the reasons it’s so difficult to keep weight off, ”Goldstone said.

　　The good news is that research is on going to find ways to block our brains’ love of unhealthy food. Two studies presented at the conference analyzed the effect of drugs designed to treat alcohol/drug addiction(上瘾)on rats’ eating behaviors.

　　In one, researchers put the addiction drug into the decision-making area of the brain—to decrease junk food consumption in animals. The drug worked in the study, but more research is needed to see if and how this could apply to humans.

　　M: Buying a house can be expensive, but there are ways to find cheaper houses.

　　W: Like what?

　　M: Well. You can buy a house far away from the city center. You would definitely save money by doing it that way.

　　W: That’s a good idea.

　　M: Sure, my sister-in-law and her husband just bought a house that wayThey’re pretty satisfied with it.

　　W: Is the house pretty run-down?

　　M: So what was it?

　　W: Well, we were in Hawaii, and all the restaurants were super expensive, so we went to a little place far from the beach.

　　M: Let me guess, the fish wasn’t fresh.

　　W: No, it was totally rotten! My dad and I both got sick when we went back to the hotelI haven’t eaten in many restaurants since then. That experience really affected me.

　　M: Well, if it makes you feel any better, I couldn’t eat French fries for quite a long time.

　　W: Why not?

　　M: Once I had a pretty disgusting experience in a fast food restaurantLet’s just say the place had a bit of a fly problem, and one of the cooks must have forgotten to check the potatoes.

　　W: Oh, no! French flies!

　　A. achievement B. challenge

　　C. contribution

　　D. duty

　　【解析】选A。考查名词。句意: 我们爬完最后几米后, 感到一种成就感(a sense of achievement)。

　　22. 【解析】选C。考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知, 在非限制性定语从句中缺少一个主语, 故C项正确, D项指人不正确。

　　23. 【解析】选C。考查代词。根据语境, 此空的that指代the advice, 由于advice为不可数名词, 故可排除A和B, that作分词of的宾语, 后面跟省略which的定语从句。

　　【误区警示】

　　one可以泛指人或者事(东西), 其复数为ones; one之前加上定冠词the可以表示特指。例如:

　　①—There is still a copy of the book in the library. Will you go and borrow it?

　　—No, I’d rather buy one in the bookstore.

　　②Of all the dresses, this is the one I like best.

　　24. 【解析】选B。考查情景交际。在四个选项中, 只有B项表示“没关系”, 可以用来回答上一句的道歉(I’m sorry)。A项用来回答别人的感谢。

　　【拓展延伸】回答别人的道歉, 表示“没关系”时, 除了用That’s OK. 外, 还可以用That’s all right. /Never mind. /Think nothing of it. /Forget it. /It doesn’t matter. 等。

　　25. 【解析】选D。考查附加问句。must have done结构表示肯定猜测, 其附加问句就是将其还原成不猜测的陈述句, 然后再根据谓语结构来判断附加问句的形式。根据语境, 第一句还原成陈述句为: Mary has finished her homework, 故D项正确。注意, 还原后的句子应用现在完成时, 强调此动作对现在的影响, 即“玛丽已经完成作业了, 现在正在看电视”。

　　【加固训练】

　　—Mary must have finished her homework, ?

　　—Yes. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone shopping with us last night.

　　A. didn’t it B. didn’t she

　　27. 【解析】选B。考查名词性从句。空格后是动词, 明显此处所填词在句中作主语, 并引导主语从句, 因此只有B项正确。D项不符合语境。若将原句中的was去掉, 则A项正确。

　　28. 【解析】选D。句意: 微博提供了一个有趣且简单的方法: 从网上了解资讯以及和朋友交换想法。exchange意为“交换”, 符合句意。consult查阅; conclude推断; submit递交。

　　32. 【解析】选C。考查时态。根据主句时态(felt)和soon可知此空应用过去将来时。

　　33. 【解析】选A。考查动词辨析。第一印象很重要。注意, 在此句中, count意为“重要”。

　　34. 【解析】选D。考查情景交际。That figures. 那在意料之中。That depends. 要视情况而定。That counts/matters. 那很重要。根据“她花了大量的时间为之做准备”可知“詹妮在物理竞赛中获得一等奖是在意料之中的”。

　　35. 【解析】选B。考查虚拟语气。insist在此句中意思是“坚决要求”, 其后宾语从句谓语部分应用“(should +)动词原形”结构, 再根据it与finish之间在逻辑上是被动关系, 可知B项正确。

　　【参考范文】

　　The discussion about happiness has recently aroused people’s attention. Last weekend, a survey about “the feeling of happiness” was also carried out in our school. It shows that 40% of the students gain happiness from the love of their parents, relatives or friends and from the warmth of their families. About 30% of them experience happiness from their achievements in their studies. Another 20% taste happiness by assisting others, making donations and taking part in a voluntary selling while the rest describe their happiness comes from different angles. All in all, the students have great passion for life, but they lack life experience and broad horizons.

　　From my point of view, to be happy about life, we can show much concern for the aged, the poor and the homeless, helping them get out of difficulties. What’s more, doing our best to work hard at our lessons and improve our overall abilities really counts in making us happy.
