  社会生活类

  July 27th, 2010 was a typical English summer’s day—it rained for 24 hours! As usual, I rushed home from work at midday to check on the house. Nothing was amiss. By the time I left work at 5pm, however, the road into our village was flooded. Our house had never been flooded but, as I opened the front door, a wave of water greeted me. Thank God the kids weren’t with me, because the house was 5 feet deep in water. We lost everything downstairs.

  At first we tried to push on through. We didn’t want to move the children out of home, so we camped upstairs. We put a sheet of plastic across the floor to protect us from the damp. But after three months, we felt very sick, so we moved to a wooden house in a park. The house was small, but at first we were all just delighted to be in a new place. Unfortunately, things took longer than expected and we were there for 10 months. The life there was inconvenient. What surprised me most was how much I missed being part of a community (社区). We had lived in a friendly village with good neighbours, and I’d never thought how much I’d miss that.

  Although our situation was very hard, it’s difficult to feel too sorry for yourself when you look at what’s happening elsewhere. I watched a news report about floods in Northern India and thought, “We didn’t have a straw hut (茅草房) that was swept away, and our house is still standing. We’re lucky.”

  We moved back home in August. With December coming, there’s still reconstruction work to be done, so it’s difficult to prepare for Christmas. But I can’t wait—I’m going to throw a party for our friends in the village to say thanks for their support. This year, I won’t need any gifts—living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually need or miss all our possessions. Although we are replacing things, there’s really no rush—we have our home back, and that’s the main thing.

  1. The underlined word “amiss” in the first paragraph means .

  A. wrong  B. missing  C. right  D. difficult

  2. Why does the author say that they were lucky in the third paragraph?

  A. Because they were able to move to a new place.

  B. Because many other places were flooded.

  C. Because their straw hut was not swept away.

  D. Because some others suffered even more.

  3. It can be inferred from the text that the author .

  A. was sick of staying upstairs

  B. cared much about her children

  C. could not stand living in a wooden house

  D. did not deal well with her family affairs during the flood

  4. What does the author mainly want to express by telling herstory?

  A. She valued human feelings more than before.

  B. She realized she almost didn’t need possessions.

  C. She found Christmas gifts no longer badly needed.

  D. She thought her own home was the most important.

  Clenching your fist could be enough to help you get a grip on your memory.

  Research suggests that balling up the right hand and squeezing it tightly actually makes it easier to memorize lists.

  Later, when it is time to get back the information,it is the left hand

  that should be clenched.It is thought the movements activate brain regions key to the storing and recall of memories.

  The American researchers suggest those who are short of a pen and paper should try the trick when attempting to remember a shopping list or phone number.

  In the study,volunteers were given a rubber ball and asked to squeeze it as hard as possible before trying to memorize a list of 72 words.

  They squeezed the ball again a couple of minutes later,ahead of recollecting as many of the words as possible.

  The first group of the volunteers used their right hand on both occasions,and the second group their left.The third group clenched their right fist ahead of memorizing and their left ahead of recall and the fourth did the opposite.The fifth group held the ball but did not squeeze it.

  Those who squeezed with their right hand,followed by their left,remembered the most words.

  The next best were the volunteers who made a fist with their right hand both times,while those who didn’t squeeze at all did better than those who led with their left.

  It is thought that the movement of clenching the right fist activates a brain region that is involved in storing memories,while squeezing the left hand awakens an area that is key to getting back information.

  Lead researcher Dr Ruth Propper said:‘The findings suggest that simple body movements—by temporarily changing the way the brain functions—Call improve memory.’

  46.What’s the writer’s purpose to write the passage?

  A.To make known the result of the experiment.

  B.To tell people memory depends mostly on their hands.

  A.your fight hand

  B.your left hand

  C.both of your hands

  D.your left hand first,and then right

  48.The underlined word“trick”in the fourth paragraph is the closest in meaning to“_________________”.

  A.method

  B.game

  C.cheat

  D.experiment

  49.Which group in the experiment remembered the fewest words?

  A.TIle first group.

  B.The second group.

  C.The fourth group.

  47. B 单纯为了记起某事,就文中所述,应该先攥紧左手。

  较难题目特训:科普知识类

  Scientists have found what look like caves on Mars(火星), and say they could be protecting life from the planet’s terrible environment.

  The first caves discovered beyond the Earth appear as seven mysterious black dots on the pictures sent back by NASA’s Mars Odyssey orbiter. Each as large as a football field, they may be openings into natural caves below the Martian surface.

  “If there is life on Mars, there is a good chance you’d find it in caves,” said Jut Wynne, one of the researchers who noticed the features while working on a US Geological Survey Mars Cave Detection Program.

  Jonathan Clarke, a geologist with the Mars Society of Australia, yesterday described the discovery as exciting.

  One photo taken at night by an infrared imager(红外线成像器) showed one hole to be unusually warm,suggesting hot air trapped during the day is flowing out.

  “I said:‘Wow, that’s a cave. ’” Dr. Clarke said excitedly. “People have been looking for these for a long time;now we have found them.”

  He agreed such caves would be perfect places to hunt for life escaping from the bitterly cold,radiation-soaked(充满辐射的),dry surface.

  “Tiny drops of water could collect inside,” he said. “If there are gases coming out, they could provide energy for a whole range of bacteria. A cave is also a protection from radiation; the surface of Mars is exposed to high levels of space radiation.

  The caves probably formed when tube-shaped lava flows(管状岩浆流) spread across the planet long ago. The outside of the tubes cooled,forming solid walls, while something hotter inside allowed the remaining lava to flow out, forming caves.”

  1. What does the passage mainly talk about?

  A. How the caves were formed on Mars.

  B. How scientists found these caves on Mars.

  C. Caves on Mars may be full of hot air or a sign of life.

  D. Scientists have completely recognized the surface of Mars.

  2. We can learn from the passage that . 

  A. water has already been found on Mars

  B. the scientists found all the caves at night

  C. it is certain that there is life in these caves

  D. the surface of Mars is bitterly cold,radiation-soaked and dry

  3. According to the passage,Dr. Clarke was so excited because . 

  A. such caves could provide energy for life

  B. they had finally found the caves on Mars

  C. such caves would be perfect places to hunt for life

  D. scientists had long been looking for these caves

  4. Necessary condition for life on Mars mentioned in the passage may include . 

  A. lava and energy

  B. water and radiation from space

  C. gases and lava

  D. water and protection from radiation
