　　A

　　Home to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia．It's fun to come home.It looks the same.It smells the same.You'll realize what's changed is you.Home is where we can remember pain, love, and some other experiences.We parted here；My parents met here；I won three championships here.

　　If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass－top wooden table.To the right of the living room is my first bedroom.It's empty, but it's where my earliest memories are.

　　There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween—when I didn't want to wear the skirt my mother made for me.I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong.If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents' room.It is simple：a brown wooden

　　dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side.Their bed is my safe zone.I can jump on it anytime—waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.

　　I'm lucky because I know my first home still exists.It exists in my mind and heart, on a physical property on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles.It's proof I lived，I grew, and I learned.

　　Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home. I know it's where I'll find my family, my dogs, and my belongings.I purposely leave the window open at night because I know I'll be blamed by Mom.But I don't mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I'm home.

　　Masses of floating ice are so large that they dwarf__your__ship，making you question whether your ship still can be spotted among such floating mountains.They are so improbable looking that you simply look in wonder.It seems that nothing that large could be natural—and then it strikes you that something so large could only be natural.

　　Now，people realize that as climate change is raising global temperatures，more icebergs are being born.Antarctica creates far more of them than Greenland，the source of bergs in Arctic waters.Antarctica's are also much larger，sometimes reaching the size of small

　　countries.Recent

　　data

　　show

　　the

　　average

　　atmospheric temperature has increased about 4.5 in the western Antarctic Peninsula since the 1940s，making the region，among the fastest warming on earth.This jump has been shown in the recent breaking of major ice shelves along the Antarctic Peninsula.As a result，thousands of new icebergs have broken off，from ice shelves into the Southern Ocean at an accelerated rate.

　　Even as more icebergs are being created，scientists are learning that they are far from inactive masses of ice.In fact，they strikingly alter their environments biologically，chemically，and physically，making them islands of life in the open sea.Observers at sea have long remarked that they attract seals，and seabirds，and divers have noticed that fish are more numerous near them than in the surrounding sea.Now scientists are learning just what the attraction is all about.

　　Depending on their size，location，and the season，icebergs can be nurturers (培养者) or destroyers.During their existence—typically years from breaking off from an Antarctic or Greenlandic glacier to their gradual melting as they float into lower altitudes，they support animals on，around，even inside their splendid ice castle.They fertilize the ocean with nutrients，increasing sea creature production.Grounded bergs can shelter areas of the seafloor，protecting

　　bottom－living

　　creatures

　　from

　　free－floating

　　icebergs.However，large bergs can also trap sea ice，preventing its annual breakup and thus stopping phytoplankton (浮游植物) from getting life—giving sunlight，breaking the food chain at its first link.

　　Icebergs will continue to astonish and attract visitors to the polar regions.But now these frozen large masses are taking on a new dimension of wonder as we uncover their vital role in the environment of polar seas.No longer can we look at icebergs as mere passive white mountains floating in the sea.They are active agents of change，each one is an icy oasis with awake of life as it floats on its unstoppable oceanic journey to melting.

　　【语篇解读】　本文为说明文，介绍了随着全球气温不断上升，冰山数量不断增多。冰山的增多从生物、化学、物理等多个方面改变着环境，对海洋既有利也有弊。

　　46．Why does the author mention “dwarf__your__ship” in the first paragraph?

　　A．To explain how natural icebergs are.

　　B．To show how powerful icebergs are.

　　C.To describe icebergs as floating ships.

　　D．To tell the unbelievable size of icebergs.

　　答案　D　[推理判断题。根据第一段第一句Masses of floating ice are so large that they dwarf your ship，making you question...such floating mountains.可知作者是想表达冰山难以置信得大。]

　　47．What can we learn from the passage?

　　A．The temperature in Arctic is rising faster than that in Antarctica.

　　B．The ocean food chain breaks due to the melting of icebergs.

　　C．Floating icebergs help shelter bottom－living ocean creatures.

　　D．Global warming has kept bringing icebergs into being.

　　答案　D　[细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知D项正确。根据第二段第四句．..the average atmospheric temperature...among the fastest warming on earth.可知A项错误；根据第四段第四句Grounded bergs can...from free floating icebergs可知C项错误；根据第四段第五句However，large bergs...at its first link.可知B项不正确。]

　　48．From the passage we can conclude that icebergs can ________．

　　A．preserve ocean creatures

　　B．carry ocean nutrients away

　　C．create a warm polar environment

　　D．keep sea animals away from polar seas

　　答案　A　[细节理解题。根据第四段第三句They fertilize the ocean with nutrients，increasing sea creature production.可知A项正确。]

　　49．What is the author's attitude toward icebergs?

　　A．Cautious.

　　B．Objective.

　　C．Doubtful.

　　D．Disapproving.

　　答案　B　[推理判断题。通读全文可知作者只是在客观描述事实，并未表达任何个人观点，因此B项正确。cautious意为“谨慎的”；doubtful意为“怀疑的”；disapproving意为“不赞成的”。]

　　C

　　SHANGHAI—Health experts in Shanghai are calling for more protection for young children as the latest research shows about half of the youngsters are suffering from secondhand smoke.About 45 percent of children suffer passive smoking in families，50

　　percent in public places，and almost 6 percent on public transportation，shows a research released by the Shanghai Children's Medical Center on Tuesday.

　　“Not only adults but also children and newborn babies are at risk for the adverse effects of passive smoking, ”said Tang Jingyan, a doctor at the Shanghai Children's Medical Center.“Actually, those young children whose bodies are still growing and developing are more sensitive to the effects of secondhand smoke.”

　　Research has shown that children who are exposed to secondhand smoke will suffer from more colds, coughs and sore throats，and they are more likely to suffer from bronchitis, pneumonia and will have a higher risk of developing cancer.Doctors even suggested that children suffering passive smoking are more likely to have behavioral problems and may not developmentally as quickly as their peers.Other research by the Shanghai Children's Medical Center has found that more than 80 percent of child patients in the center live in a smoke filled household, where one or both parents smoke.

　　“Though doctors have stressed the harm of passive smoking over and over, it is still hard to reach a totally smoke free home, ”said a pediatrician named Zhang Yiwen, noting that parents are often tempted to smoke even though they have learned the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.

　　China has 540 million people suffering from passive smoke，180 million of them younger than 15.The age of smokers is also getting lower, earlier reports said.

　　“There are more young smokers than before.You can see young people wearing a school uniform and carrying a schoolbag light a cigarette on the street.Some of them are even female students, ”said Jing Xingming, a professor of children's developmental behavior at the center.“Children like to imitate adults, especially their parents.If parents often smoke at home, it is very likely children will develop a smoking habit, which can cause a vicious circle，”Jin said.

　　Reports from the Ministry of Health said China has about 350 million smokers, of whom 15 million are underage smokers.Also, around 40 million of the country's 130 million children aged between 13 and 18 had tried smoking, and 15 million had become addicted to tobacco.

　　【语篇解读】　本文主要说明了许多儿童目前受二手烟的影响，以及二手烟对儿童产生的危害。

　　50．What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A．About half of the youngsters are suffering from secondhand smoke.

　　B．Experts are calling for more protection for youngsters from smoking.

　　C．More and more youngsters are picking up the habit of smoking.

　　D．Smoking does great harm to the health of the youngsters.

　　答案　B　[主旨大意题。根据文章大意，文章先说明了许多儿童目前受二手烟的影响，后文又说明了二手烟对儿童的危害，所以文章主要说明的其实是呼吁保护孩子们免受二手烟影响，故选B。]

　　51．Which youngsters most possibly develop a habit of smoking?

　　A．Children of nonsmoking mothers.

　　B．Children of nonsmoking fathers.

　　C．Children of heavy smokers.

　　D．Children from some smoking centers.

　　答案　C　[细节理解题。根据文中第六段倒数第一句“if parents often smoke at home，it is vey likely children will develop a smoking habit”可知，

　　如果父母经常在家吸烟，孩子就更可能养成吸烟的习惯，故选C。]

　　52．Which of the following diseases may NOT be connected with secondhand smoking?

　　A．Cancer.

　　B．Behavioral problems.

　　C．Sore throats.

　　D．Coughs.

　　答案　B　[细节理解题。根据文中第三段第一句话“Research has shown...more colds，coughs, and sore throats and they...will have a higher risk of developing cancer”可知A、C、D均与二手烟有关，故选B。]

　　53．The underlined word “vicious” in the sixth paragraph most probably means ________．

　　A．complete

　　B．simple

　　C．great

　　D．bad

　　答案　D　[词义猜测题。根据单词所在句句意“如果父母经常在家吸烟，孩子就更可能养成吸烟的习惯”而吸烟是一种不良习惯，所以这种循环应该是一种恶性循环，故选D。]

　　54．What can be inferred from the passage?

　　A．About 80 percent of the children in the Shanghai Children's Medical Center smoke heavily.

　　B．About 45 percent of children suffer passive smoking in the Shanghai Children's Medical Center.

　　C．About 540 million people are heavy smokers in China.

　　D．Children aged between 13 to 18 are more likely addicted to smoking.

　　答案　D　[推理判断题。根据文章倒数第一段第二句可知“around 40 million of the country's 130 million children aged between 13 and 18 had tried smoking，and 15 million had become addicted to tobacco”可知13到18岁的儿童更容易对吸烟上瘾，故D。文中第一段的数据只是由Children's Medical Center调查研究提供的，是对整个城市的一个普遍调查，不是在这个中心内的，故A、B项错误，根据文中倒数第三段第一句可知54 000万人是间接吸烟者，并不是吸烟的人，故C项错误。]

　　The best antistress(抗紧张) medicine we have may be right under your nose! Think you know how to do it? Try this simple test: sit or stand wherever you are and take a deep breath，then let it out.What expanded more as you breathed in，your chest or your abdomen(腹部)? If the answer is your chest，you're like most people and you're doing it wrong.Take another deep breath and keep reading.

　　The technique is so powerful that physician James Gordon，director of the Centre for Mind－Body Medicine in Washington，teaches it to nearly every patient he sees.

　　“Slow，deep breathing is probably the only best antistress medicine we have，” says Gordon，“When you bring air down into the lower part of the lungs，where oxygen exchange is most efficient，everything changes.Heart rate slows，blood pressure decrease，muscles relax，anxiety ceases and the mind calms.”

　　Obviously，everyone alive knows how to breathe.But Gordon and other experts in the field of mind-body medicine say that few people in industrialized societies know how to breathe correctly.They are taught to suck in their guts(内脏) and puff out(鼓起) their chests.At the same time，they are attacked with constant stress，which causes heart rate to increase.As a result，they become shallow “chest breathers”，using primarily the middle and upper parts of the lungs.Few people—other than musicians，singers and some athletes are even aware that the abdomen should expand when they breathe in.

　　“Watch a baby breathe，” says Gordon，“and you'll see the abdomen go up and down，deep and slow.” With age，most people change from this healthy abdominal breathing into shallow chest breathing.

　　At Duke University Medical Centre，Dr.Jon Seskevich has taught abdominal breathing to most of the 18，000 patients he's worked with since 1990.

　　One of his most dramatic cases involved a lung－cancer patient.“I walked into the room to find this large man actually fighting for breath，” Seskevich recalls.“I had him sit back in his chair and place his feet on the ground.I then asked if it was OK if I touched his abdomen.He nodded，so I put my hand on and told him to breathe softly into my hand，to let his abdomen rise into my hand.”

　　After about six minutes of this，he was breathing comfortably.“All day，people were telling him to relax，” says Seskevich，“and it seemed to make his struggle worse.I just told him to breathe into his abdomen.We didn't cure his cancer，but we may have saved him a trip to the intensive－care unit.”

　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。正确的呼吸方式有助于减轻我们的压力，而抗紧张最好的药就是慢慢地深呼吸，但是很少有人知道如何正确呼吸及正确呼吸的重要性。

　　55．According to the Centre for Mind－Body Medicine in Washington，the best medicine for antistress is ________．

　　A．shallow chestbreathing

　　B．operation treatment

　　C．slow，deep breathing

　　答案　C　[细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Slowdeep breathing is probably the only best antistress medicine we have”可知，抗紧张最好的药就是慢慢地深呼吸。故选C。]

　　56．What do you know about most people's breath in industrialized societies?

　　A．They breathe with the middle and upper parts of the lungs.

　　B．They become deep breathers，using the lower parts of the lungs.

　　C．They expand their abdomens when they breathe in.

　　D．They have their abdomens go up and down while breathing.

　　答案　A　[细节理解题。根据第四段倒数第二句“As a result，they become shallow‘chest breathers’，using primarily the middle and upper parts of the lungs.”可知，他们使用肺的中上部呼吸。故选A。]

　　57．Which of the following people tend to know the right way to breathe according to the passage?

　　A．Government officials.

　　B．Doctors and patients.

　　C．Some sportsmen.

　　D．University professors.

　　答案　C　[细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Few people—other than musicians，singers and some athletes are even aware that the abdomen should expand when they breathe in.”可知，有些运动员知道正确的呼吸方法。故选C。]

　　58．The example stated in the last two paragraphs show that the lungcancer patient ________ without Dr.Seskevich's advice on how to breathe.

　　A．might have died already

　　B．couldn't have been cured of his illness

　　C．would have stopped breathing

　　D．would have been sent to the intensive－care unit

　　答案　D　[推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“After about six minutes of this，he was breathing comfortably.”，并结合该段最后一句“We didn't cure his cancer，but we may have saved him a trip to the intensive－care unit.”可知，在Seskevich的建议下，病人的呼吸开始顺畅，否则病人可能会住进特护病房。故选D。]

　　59．Which of the following do you think is NOT TRUE after you have read the passage?

　　A．Most people give up abdominal breathing when growing up.

　　B．A baby takes his or her breath in a natural and abdominal breathing way.

　　C．Healthy people are more aware of the importance of correct breathing than those in poor health.

　　D．Shallow “chest breathers” may be attacked with constant stress，which causes heart rate to increase.

　　答案　C　[正误判断题。根据第四段第二句“...few people in industrialized societies know how to breathe correctly.”，并结合该段最后一句“Few people...are even aware...breathe in.”可知，很少有人知道如何正确呼吸及正确呼吸的重要性，但是这并不意味着健康的人比健康不佳的人更清楚正确呼吸的重要性。故选C。]

　　60．What does the writer mainly tell us in this passage?

　　A．The secret for our long life is to take more deep breath every day.

　　B．Correct ways of breathing may help to reduce our stress.

　　C．There are two breathing ways—chest breathing and abdominal breathing.

　　D．It's useful to bring air down into the lower part of our body whenever we feel nervous.

　　答案　B　[主旨大意题。根据文章第一句“The best antistress(抗紧张)medicine we have may be right under your nose！”开篇点题，以及第三段开头“Slow，deep breathing is probably the only best antistress medicine we have”，并结合上下文内容可知，文章主要讲述的是正确的呼吸方式可能有助于减轻我们的压力，因此B项符合题意。故选B。]

　　第二节：下面文章中有5个段落需要添加首句(第61～65题)。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出适合各段落的首句。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A．Try different new things.

　　B．Avoid “black and white thinking”．

　　C．Associate with optimistic people.

　　D.Make a plan to stop thinking negatively.

　　E．Understand the benefits of staying positive.

　　F．Adopt the motto “everything happens for a reason”．

　　Develop a positive attitude towards life

　　When you are going through a challenging time，people will just instruct you to think positively.More often than not，thinking positively proves a strategy for interpreting everything that happens to you in a useful，constructive way.If you want to know how to think more positively，just follow these tips.

　　61．________Choosing to think more positively will not only help you take control of your life and make your everyday experiences more pleasant，but it will have countless benefits on your mental and physical health as well as your ability to deal with change.Being aware of these benefits can help you be even more motivated to think positively on a regular basis.One of the most important benefits of positive thinking is that you are more likely to have better coping skills during times of stress.

　　62．________Don't think everything you are faced with either is or it isn't.In fact，there is what we call the shades of gray in life.Therefore，if something doesn't turn out the way you want it to，make a list of all of the outcomes in between to see that things aren't as serious as they seem.For example，if you get a late start on a paper and think you shouldn't bother because you won't finish it in time，consider the other possibilities.You could finish half the paper and still get a better grade than if you don't turn it in.

　　63．________That means deciding to overcome the negativity that is going on around you—and there will always be plenty of it.Think of what you can do today that is good for you and others.Decide how you will react in ways that will make a difference to your life.Don't let other people ruin your plan.People will often make things seem more important or worrisome than they really are.Making a plan to be more positive will already be a move in the right direction.This will help you to stay positive because you will feel a greater sense of control over your life and your choices.

　　64．________Experiencing a wide variety of life will do wonders.Stepping out of your comfort zone can often take you by surprise and knock those negative thoughts or black and white thoughts right back into their cave.Something as simple as trying a new food in a restaurant can lead to the discovery of new tastes and different feelings，along with the release of negative impressions.Visiting a new town，city，or country and see how other people view the world can help put a positive spin on your life.

　　65．________Optimism is infectious.If you want to be infected by optimism，you should spend time with people who can provide something of value.Look for the positives in other people too—finding what is good in people.Learn to praise people around you.Connect with people who have many passions and want to share them with you.Avoid seeing anyone with a negative outlook，unless you really care about that person and want to change their thoughts.If you tend to think negatively，you'll be falling into a trap.
