　　When I

　　We were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, we all rushed down to the river and had a swim. Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded (环绕) by cliffs (悬崖). If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp.

　　Several days later, the scoutmaster had to be away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early. We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything.

　　We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collected our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them. But no one moved towards the river---we stood looking at each other ashamed. Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We agreed how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp.

　　An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep (悄悄移动) down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow, we crept down towards the bank. One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything clearly. He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking everywhere carefully. We could not understand where the man had gone.

　　When it got dark, we went back to our camp felling

　　bewildered. We told the scoutmaster what had happened in the evening. Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go and look again. We did, but there was no one there.

　　Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday. What did we see? I do not know.

　　1. The writer in the test mainly tells us _______.

　　A. the story of his childhood

　　B. a strange camping experience

　　C. about a stranger by the river

　　D. about a good place for camping

　　2. Why did the boys eat their supper slowly?

　　A. They wanted to delay going to the river bank.

　　B. They were waiting for their scoutmaster.

　　C. They had a supper earlier than usual

　　D. They were talking while eating.

　　3. The word "bewildered" in the text probably means__.

　　A. ashamed

　　B. nervous

　　C. unable to understand

　　D. eager to know something

　　4. When he heard what had happened, the scoutmaster__.

　　A. realized who the man was

　　B. started to worry about the man

　　C. went back to look for the man

　　You’re sitting on the train home and the person opposite you yawns(打哈欠). Suddenly, you’re yawning with him, though you’re not tired.

　　This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagious(有感染力的) yawning, which showed that humans communicate regularly with out words.

　　Hugo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critechley, our mind and body are in constant exchange about how we’re feeling. “Emotions are closely linked with states of internal(内部的) responses,” he explained. “ There are also more visible changes in our gestures and facial expression. When we’re in a group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there’s the obvious tendency to smile when smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a change in our heart rate and blood pressure.

　　Hugo Critchley further explained, “Our bodies synchronies and when we like the other person, we ever copy his behavior. Next time you chat with a friend, take note fo how you’re sitting— it’s pretty likely that you will be the same. Scientists believe it’s our way of telling each other that we’re partners. Through body language, humans give each other very subtle(微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions.”

　　So, what lessons can we learn from this? “ Spend time with happy people— otherwise your health could suffer,” said Critchley.” When we’re sad, our body goes into fight or flight mode. But when we’re happy, our body works normally and we feel relaxed and positive. So we look bright, our skin glows, we feel healthy and it affects everyone around us.”

　　65. According to Hugo Critchley, ________.

　　A. emotions are as visible as facial expressions

　　B. we yawn more frequently when we have a cold

　　C. emotions are connected with states of internal responses

　　D. the change of blood pressure is not linked with the change of emotions.

　　66. The underlined word “synchronies” in Paragraph 4 means “_____”.

　　A. move slowly

　　B. change rapidly

　　C. relax temporarily

　　D. respond accordingly

　　67. From the passage we can learn ________.

　　A. sadness is as contagious as happiness

　　B. anger is less contagious than friendliness

　　C. surprise is more contagious than smile

　　D. surprise is the most contagious among emotions

　　68. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

　　A. Emotions have delicate influence on fellow humans.

　　B. Children like copying the actions of fellow humans.

　　D. People tend to communicate more with body language.

　　C

　　C

　　Michael Fish may soon be replaced as a weather forecaster by something truly fishier---the shark(鲨鱼).

　　Research by a British biology student suggests that sharks could be used to predict storms.

　　Lauren Smith, 24, is close to completing her study on shark’s ability to sense pressure.

　　If her studies prove the theory, scientists may be able to monitor the behaviour of sharks to predict bad weather.

　　Miss Smith had previously studied the behaviour of lemon sharks in the Bahamas.

　　She then used their close relatives, lesser spotted dogfish, for further research at Aberdeen University.

　　Her work---thought to be the first of its kind to test the pressure theory ---- resulted from the observation that juvenile blacktip sharks off Florida moved into deeper water ahead of a violent storm in 2001.

　　Miss Smith said: “I’ve always been crazy about traveling and diving and this led me to an interest in sharks.”

　　“I was delighted to have been able to research in the area for my degree. I know there’s so much more we need to understand ---- but it certainly opens the way to more research.”

　　It has been discovered that a shark senses pressure using hair cells in its balance system.

　　At the Bimini Shark Lab in the Bahamas, Miss Smith fixed hi-tech sensors to sharks to record pressure and temperature, while also tracking them using GPS (Global Positioning System) technology.

　　In Aberdeen, she was able to study the effects of tidal(潮汐的) and temperature changes on dogfish----none of which were harmed. She also used a special lab which can mimic(模拟) oceanic pressure changes caused by weather fronts.

　　She is due to complete her study and graduate later this year. She says she will be looking for a job which will give her the chance to enrich her experience of shark research.

　　The passage is most probably taken from _____.

　　A. a short-story collection

　　B. a popular science magazine

　　C. a research paper

　　D. a personal diary

　　45. What do we learn from the first four paragraph of the passage?

　　A. Sharks may be used to predict bad weather.

　　B. Sharks’ behaviour can be controlled.

　　C. Michael Fish is not qualified for his job.

　　D. Lauren Smith will become a weather forecaster.

　　46. Lauren Smith conducted her research by _______.

　　A. removing hair cells from a shark’s balance system

　　B. measuring the air pressure of weather fronts

　　C. recording sharks’ body temperature

　　D. monitoring sharks’ reaction to weather changes

　　47. What is the passage mainly about?

　　A. A popular way of forecasting weather.

　　B. A new research effort in predicting storms.

　　C. Biologists’ interest in the secrets of sharks.

　　D. Lauren Smith’s devotion to scientific research.

　　（2017北京卷）

　　第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分。共 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出正确的填入空白处。选项中有两项为多余选项。

　　Evaluating Sources (来源) of health Information

　　Making good choices about your own health requairs reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Resonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to find relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources.

　　71

　　Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determin whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study.

　　72

　　Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behaviour “contributes to” or is “associated with” an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result.

　　73

　　Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.

　　Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements.

　　74

　　Evaluate “scientific” statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术).

　　75

　　Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.

　　Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.

　　A. Make choice that are right for you.

　　B. The goal of an ad is to sell you something.

　　C. Be sure to work through the critical questions.

　　D. And examine the findings of the original research.

　　E. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.

　　F. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author’s point of view.

　　G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.

　　The Spring Festival Gala Evening is really a great event for many Chinese people．But in recent years，some people have doubted whether it is necessato hold it．There was a lively discussion in Ningbo Evening’ English edition about this issue．

　　The advantages of holding the Spring Festival Gala Evening lie in the following aspects．Firstly, family members get reunited to watch it．Also．it allows people to participate in the party．What’ more，the programs are linked to people’ daily life，which makes them happy．However，others think that it should be dropped because it lacks creativity and people are tired of it．What’ worse，more and more commercial programs have taken the place of high quality ones，which has made people lose interest．

　　Personally，I hope it will continue．After all，it has been a tradition for many years．But the style and content should be reformed and recreated．
