　　If humans were truly at home under the light of the moon and stars，we would go in darkness happily，the midnight world as visible to us as it is to the vast number of nocturnal(夜间活动的) species on this planet. Instead，we are diurnal creatures, with eyes adapted to living in the sun’s light. This is a basic evolutionary fact, even though most of us don’t think of ourselves as diurnal beings. Yet it’s the only way to explain what we’ve done to the night: We’ve engineered it to

　　receive us by filling it with light.

　　The benefits of this kind of engineering come with consequences 一 called light pollution 一 whose effects scientists are only now beginning to study. Light pollution is largely the result of bad

　　lighting design，which allows artificial light to shine outward and upward into the sky. III-designed lighting washes out the darkness of night and completely changes the light levels 一 and light

　　rhythms — to which many forms of life, including, ourselves, have adapted. Wherever human light spills into the natural world, some aspect or life is affected .

　　In most cities the sky looks as though it has been emptied of stars, leaving behind a vacant haze(霾) that mirrors our fear of the dark. We’ve grown so used to this orange haze that the original glory of an unlit nigh, - dark enough for the planet Venus to throw shadow on Earth, is wholly beyond our experience, beyond memory almost.

　　We’ve lit up the night as if it were an unoccupied country, when nothing could be further form the truth. Among mammals alone, the number of nocturnal species is astonishing, Light is a powerful biological force, and on many species it acts as a magnet(磁铁). The effect is so powerful that scientists speak of songbirds and seabirds being “captured” by searchlights on land or by the light from gas flares on marine oil platforms. Migrating at night, birds tend to collide with brightly lit tall buildings.

　　Frogs living near brightly lit highways suffer nocturnal light levels that are as much as a million times righter than normal, throwing nearly every aspect of their behavior out of joint including most other creatures ,we do need darkness .Darkness is as essential to our biological welfare, to our internal clockwork, as light itself.

　　Living in a glare of our making,we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary and cultural heritage—the light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night .In a very real sense light pollution causes us to lose sight of our true place in the universe, to forget the scale of our being, which is best measured against the dimensions of a deep night with the Milky Way—the edge of our galaxy arching overhead.

　　Conflict is on the menu tonight at the café La Chope. This evening, as on every Thursday night, psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France’s favorite pastimes, coffee drinking and the “talking cure”. Here they are learning to get in touch with their true feelings. It isn’t always easy. They customers - some thirty Parisians who pay just under $2 (plus drinks) per session - care quick to intellectualize (高谈阔论)，slow to open up and connect. “You are forbidden to say ‘one feels,’ or ‘people think’,” Lehane told them. “Say ‘I think,’ ‘Think me’.”

　　A café society where no intellectualizing is allowed? It couldn’t seem more un-French. But Lehanne’s psychology café is about more than knowing oneself: It’s trying to help the city’s troubled neighborhood cafes. Over the years, Parisian cafes have fallen victim to changes in the French lifestyle - longer working hours, a fast food boom and a younger generation’s desire to spend more time at home. Dozens of new theme cafes appear to change the situation. Cafes focused around psychology, history, and engineering are catching on, filling tables well into the evening.

　　The city’s psychology cafes, which offer great comfort, are among the most popular places. Middle-aged homemakers, retirees, and the unemployed come to such cafes to talk about love, anger, and dreams with a psychologist. And they come to Lehanne’s group just to learn to say what they feel. “There’s a strong need in Paris for communication,” says Maurice Frisch, a cafe La Chope regular who works as a religious instructor in a nearby church. “People have few real friends. And they need to open up.” Lehanne says she’d like to see psychology cafes all over France. “If people had normal lives, these cafes wouldn’t exist”, she says, “If life weren’t a battle, people wouldn’t need a special place just to speak.” But them, it wouldn’t be France.

　　32. What are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?

　　A. Learn a new subject

　　B. Keep in touch with friends.

　　C. Show off their knowledge.

　　D. Express their true feelings.

　　33. How are cafes affected by French lifestyle changes?

　　A. They are less frequently visited.

　　B. They stay open for longer hours.

　　C. They have bigger night crowds.

　　D. They start to serve fast food.

　　34. What are theme cafes expected to do?

　　A. Create more jobs.

　　B. Supply better drinks.

　　C. Save the cafe business.

　　D. Serve the neighborhood.

　　35. Why are psychology cafes becoming popular in Paris?

　　A. They bring people true friendship.

　　B. They give people spiritual support.

　　C. They help people realize their dreams.

　　D. They offer a platform for business links.

　　The oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.

　　First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled （芭蕾）dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”

　　On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale (呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible （隐形的）cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.

　　Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat,”Your inner ear thinks your’re falling . Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying—that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days —truly terrible days for some —astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.

　　Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.

　　63.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?

　　A. Deciding on a proper sleep position

　　B. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag

　　C. Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly

　　D. Finding a right time to go to sleep.

　　64.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when _____.

　　?A. the y circle around on their bikes

　　B. they use microcomputers without a stop

　　C. they exercise in one place for a long time

　　D. they watch a movie while pedaling

　　65.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because _____.

　　A. their senses stop working

　　B. they have to stand up straight

　　C. they float out of their seats unexpectedly

　　D. whether they are able to go back to the station

　　66.One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is _____.

　　A. how much exercise they do on the station

　　B. how they can remain healthy for long in space

　　C. whether they can recover after returning home

　　D. whether they are able to go back to the station

　　The Boy Made It!

　　One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.

　　Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.

　　He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter form the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.

　　Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.

　　By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could- he huddled(蜷缩) in his cave and slept.

　　The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.

　　Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show. Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life, In each episode(一期节目)of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.

　　When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.

　　56. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?

　　A. He got lost.

　　B. He broke his skis.

　　C. He hurt his eyes

　　D. He caught a cold

　　57. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?

　　B. He lighted some branches.

　　C. He kept on skiing.

　　D. He built a snow cave.

　　58. On Tuesday, Nicholas _____.

　　A. returned to his shelter safely

　　B. was saved by a searcher

　　C. got stuck in the snow

　　D. staved where he was

　　59. Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he _____.

　　Nothing could stop Dad. After he was put on disability for a bad back, he bought a small farm in the country, just enough to grow food for the family. He planted vegetables, fruit trees and even kept bees for honey.

　　And every week he cleaned Old Man McColgin's chicken house in exchange for manure(肥料). The Smell really burned the inside of your nose. When we complained about the terrible smell, Dad said the stronger the manure, the healthier the crops, and he was right. For example, just one of his cantaloupes filled the entire house with its sweet smell, and the taste was even sweeter.

　　As the vegetables started coming in, Dad threw himself into cooking. One day, armed with a basket of vegetables, he announced he was going to make stew(炖菜).Dad pulled out a pressure cooker and filled it up with cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, corns, onions and carrots. For about half an hour. the pressure built and the vegetables cooked. Finally, Dad turned off the stove, the pot began to cool and the pressure relief valve sprayed out a cloud of steam. If we thought Dad's pile of chicken manure was bad, this was 10 times worse. When Dad took off the lid, the smell nearly knocked us out.

　　Dad carried the pot out and we opened doors and windows to air out the house. Just how bad was it? The neighbors came out of their houses to see if we had a gas leak!

　　Determined, Dad filled our plates with steaming stew and passed them around. It didn’t look that bad, and after the first wave had shut down my ability to smell, it didn’t offend the nose so much, either. I took a taste. It would never win a prize in a cooking competition, but it was surprisingly edible and we drank up every last drop of soup.

　　34.Why did Dad clean Old Man Mocolgin’s chicken house regularly?

　　A. To earn some money for the family.

　　B. To collect manure for his crops.

　　C. To get rid of the terrible smell.

　　D. To set a good example to us.

　　35.What can we infer about Dad抯 stew?g

　　A. It is popular among the neighbors.

　　B. It contains honey and vegetables.

　　C. It looks very wonderful.

　　D. It tastes quite delicious.

　　36.What does the underlined word 搊ffend?in the last paragraph mean?ri

　　A. To attract

　　B. To upset

　　C. To air

　　D. To shut

　　37.What can we learn about Dad form the text?

　　A. He is an experienced cook.

　　B. He is a troublesome father.

　　C. He has a positive attitude to life.

　　D. He suffers a lot from his disability.

　　When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?

　　As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮) and the sun huts their eyes… The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them..

　　When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.

　　31.

　　A. He could not catch a fish.

　　B. His father was not patient with him.

　　Parents who help their children with homework may actually be bringing down their school grades. Other forms of prenatal involvement, including volunteering at school and observing a child's class, also fail to help, according to the most recent study on the topic.

　　The findings challenge a key principle of modern parenting(养育子女) where schools except them to act as partners in their children's education. Previous generations concentrated on getting children to school on time, fed, dressed and ready to learn.

　　Kaith Robinson, the author of the study, said, "I really don't know if the public is ready for this but there are some ways parents can be involved in their kids' education that leads to declines in their academic performance. One of the things that was consistently negative was parents' help with homework." Robinson suggested that may be because parents themselves struggle to understand the task." They may either not remember the material their kids are studying now, or in some cases never learnt it themselves, but they're still offering advice."

　　Robinson assessed parental involvement performance and found one of the most damaging things a parent could do was to punish their children for poor marks. In general, about 20% of parental involvement was positive, about 45% negative and the rest statistically insignificant.

　　Common sense suggests it was a good thing for parents to get involved because "children with good academic success do have involved parents ", admitted Robinson. But he argued that this did not prove parental involvement was the root cause of that success." A big surprise was that Asian-American parents whose kids are doing so well in school hardly involved. They took a more reasonable approach, conveying to their children how success at school could improve their lives."

　　58.

　　The underlined expression "parental involvement " in Paragraph 1 probably means

　　.

　　A. parents' expectation on children's health

　　B. parents' participation in children's education

　　C. parents' control over children's life

　　D. parents' plan for children's future

　　59. What is the major finding of Robinson's study ?

　　A. Modern parents raise children in a more scientific way.

　　B. Punishing kids for bad marks is mentally damaging.

　　C. Parental involvement is not so beneficial as expected.

　　D. Parents are not able to help with children’s homework.

　　60.

　　The example of Asian-American parents implies that parents should

　　.

　　A. help children realize the importance of schooling

　　B. set a specific life goal for their children

　　C. spend more time improving their own lives

　　D. take a more active part in school management

　　10.【2015·浙江】A

　　From the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible failure and public humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they “know” all the words they are reading. This means that when they don’t know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.

　　One day soon after school had started, I said to them, “Now I’m going to say something about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of

　　books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that’s enough for me. Also I’m not going to ask you what words mean. “

　　The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, Mr Holt, do you really mean that?” I said just as seriously, “I mean every word of it.

　　During the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk, From a glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, “It can’t be,” and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick , in edition with woodcuts. I said, “Don’t you find parts of it rather heavy going?” She answered, Oh, sure, but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part. “

　　This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is, an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of “understanding” that can be dug out of a book.

　　41. According to the passage, children’s fear and dislike of books may result from________.

　　A. reading little and thinking little

　　B. reading often and adventurously

　　C. being made to read too much

　　D. being made to read aloud before others

　　42.

　　The teacher told his students to read______ .

　　A. for enjoyment

　　A. it sounded stupid

　　B. it was not surprising at all

　　C. it sounded too good to be true

　　D. it was no different from other teachers' talk

　　44. Which of the following statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. She skipped over those easy parts while reading.

　　B. She had a hard time finishing the required reading tasks.

　　C. She learned to appreciate some parts of the difficult books.

　　D. She turned out to be a top student after coming to this school.

　　45. From the teacher's point of view,_________ .

　　A. children cannot tell good parts from bad parts while reading

　　B. children should be left to decide what to read and how to read

　　C. reading is never a pleasant and inspiring experience in school

　　D. reading involves understanding every little piece of information

　　Building Trust in a Relationship Again

　　Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences, 36 .

　　Trust is a risk. But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.

　　Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal. Whether we’ve been stolen from, lied to , misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore, 37.

　　It’s understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.

　　38

　　having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being.

　　39

　　If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”. At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or violated.

　　You didn’t lose “everything”. Once trust is lost, what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life. 40 instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.

　　Learn to really trust yourself.

　　It is putting confidence in someone.

　　Stop regarding yourself as the victim.

　　Remember that you can expect the best in return.

　　They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again.

　　This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.

　　side by side at the piano. They played jazz music to celebrate their new home. The loud

　　The next morning,

　　38

　　, their happiness disappeared. Someone had left a

　　39

　　under their door during the night. One of their neighbor had written to complain(抱怨) about the sound of the piano. Dario’s mother asked the building superintendent(管理员) if he knew anything about it. But he said that they were all

　　40

　　people and he couldn’t imagine any of them had done that. Later that morning, Dario suggested that they write a letter to their

　　41

　　and apologize for their playing.

　　“Maybe we could go and

　　everyone in person.” his mother said.

　　“What if we invited them to come here for a

　　“I heard you playing the other night,” she said. “The sounds woke me out of bed. I

　　49

　　that you might play like this every night. So I wrote a short note. I hope you don’t think I disliked the playing.”

　　Dario’s mother smiled at Mrs. Gilbert. “I think maybe we

　　50

　　you an apology.” she said. “I didn’t

　　51

　　how late it was when we were playing. Maybe we should play some quieter music at night.

　　“You play, you play!” Mrs. Gilbert said. “I like what you play! Just not so loud at night.” She pointed to the book she had given them. “These songs are not such

　　52

　　music.”

　　“These songs are beautiful music.” Dario’s mother said. “We will be

　　53

　　to play them in the evening.”

　　“And we won’t play so loud or late!” Dario said. He was already looking forward to

　　54

　　the new music. More than that, however, he was happy to see the big smile on his mother’s face. It gave him a feeling of

　　My fiance (未婚夫) and I were excited about shopping for our first home. But our funds were

　　16

　　, and none of the houses in our price range seemed satisfactory.

　　One agent

　　17

　　a house in particular. Although her description sounded wonderful, the price was

　　18

　　our range, so we declined. But she kept urging us to have a look

　　19

　　.

　　We finally did and it was

　　20

　　at first sight. It was Our Home, small and charming, overlooking a quiet lake. Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a nice elderly couple, we felt the warmth and

　　21

　　of the marriage within that home. As perfect as it was, the price remained too high for us. But every day, we would sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of

　　22

　　it would be like to live there.

　　Days later, we made a(n)

　　23

　　—far below the asking price. Surprisingly, they didn’t

　　24

　　us. They renewed their offer

　　25

　　. It was also much more than we could afford, but far

　　26

　　than the original asking price.

　　The next day, we got a

　　27

　　message that another buyer had offered a much higher price. Even so, we decided to talk with the

　　28

　　directly. We made our final offer, which

　　29

　　was thousands of dollars less than the other buyer’s bid. We knew it,

　　30

　　we had to try.

　　“Sold!” said the owner. Then he

　　the years of work they had put into their home; he realized he would take a

　　33

　　by selling it to us, but it was worthwhile; we were the people they wanted to live there. He told us to consider the

　　One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder. However, life can be 36 when you are not busy finding fault with it.

　　Several years ago I 37 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 38 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and 39 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 40 person.

　　Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 41 Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 42 to deal with was that the day before the 43 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 44 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 45 It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 47 everything so harshly ( 刻薄) . She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 48 as well.

　　Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding, 49 when we're honest, we can be sharply 50 of

　　the world. I'm not suggesting you 51 problems, or that you pretend things are 52 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are— 53 most of the time, and especially when it's not a really big 54 .

　　My soccer coach retired in last week. I wanted to do anything special for him at his retirement party. My mum makes the better biscuits in the world, so I decide to ask her for help. Mum taught me some basic step of baking. I insisted on doing most of the baking myself. I thought the biscuits were really well. My only mistake was that I dropped some on the floor after I was packing them up.

　　At a party, my coach, with a biscuit in his mouth, asked surprisingly who made them and joked, “I might have to retire again next year just get some more of these biscuits.”

　　My favorite picture at the party is of my coach and me enjoy the biscuits with happy laughter!
