第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Does Happiness Have a Pleasant Smell?
When someone is happy, can you smell it?
You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug. But can you also smell their happiness? Surprising new research suggests that happiness does indeed have a pleasant smell, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted (传播) through smell.
For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers collected sweat samples (样本) from them. All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or smokers, and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period.
Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers observed their reactions. Only women were selected to smell the samples, obviously because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signaling.
“When a person is happy, his sweat brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun Semin, a professor at Koc University in Turkey.
This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a pleasant smell, but that the smell is able to pass the emotion to others. The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a smell too. This ensures previous research suggesting that some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings.
Researchers have not isolated (分离) exactly what the chemical compound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine how to make use of such a finding. Happiness perfumes, for instance, could be invented. Scent therapies (香味疗法) could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety.
21. What is the main finding of the new research?
A. Men produce more sweats.
B. Negative emotions have a smell.
C. Pleasant feelings can be smelt out.
D. Women have a better sense of smell.
22. The underlined part “abstain from” in Paragraph 3 probably means ‘‘ ”.
A. avoid B. practice C. continue D. try
23. What is the application value of the new research?
A. Perfumes could help people understand each other.
B. Some smells could be developed to better our mood.
C. Perfumes could be produced to cure physical diseases.
D. Some smells could be created to improve our appearance.
24. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Happiness comes from a scent of sweat.
B. Men have a better sense of smell than women.
C. Positive feelings have not been proved to have a smell before.
D. Researchers have developed happiness perfumes and scent therapies.

My husband, Black, a manager of a company, came home from work one day saying, "It's looking terrible." At midnight, I woke up seeing him sitting in a chair, his hand on his forehead. I was worried. I had to cheer him up and help ourselves financially.
As an advisor for top companies and a teacher in creative thinking at the college of New Jewsey for years,I thought of a good plan. What if we undertake and adventure while making money from it ? We’d always talked about traveling more, but we’d been tied to routines(日常事务). Now I saw no point in sitting around worrying when we could see the country. We’d take our three young kids and teach them on the road. It was the perfect time before they reached high school. We’d rent out our house.
We listed our house for rent and created a brand strategy, logo, and website for us------family offtrack.com, and persuade five companies to support us. Their ads on our site would help pay travel
costs, and we’d promote their brands on our trip in exchange for their support.
With everything done, we took off on April 3 . All spring and summer, we visited national landmarks and treasured lands. By August when we returned home, Black’s company continued to slide and now may have to close down. But we’ve made the travel a permanent part of our lives. What’s more, with a Chicago-based production company I’ve developed the Family Off Track brand by creating videos, educational programs and exhibits. And Black has new ideas for management business. It’s great to see the spark in his eyes again.
Now I feel it even more. Together we taught our kids a lesson: Nobody ever made history by living 100 percent by the book in times of recession(不景气)
25. Black was in low spirits because_____
A. he couldn’t sleep well for many days
B. he lost his interest in his business
C. his company was in financial trouble
D. his manager was about to fire him
26. It can be inferred from the second paragraph that_____
A. the author’s plan would benefit the family in several aspects
B. it is impossible for poor people to spare their time for traveling
C. chances could come when a family was in financial trouble
D. their children’s education would have to be stopped temporarily
27. The family’s story is a good example to prove that_____
A. A good fame is better than a good face
B. An ounce (盎司) of luck is better than a pound of wisdom
C. Every man is the architect of his own fortune
D. Accidents will happen.
C
A Japanese telecom company has designed a robot that it says has emotions.But rather than run in fear from it,we’ve welcomed it into our homes:Pepper,the “emotional robot”,sold out within a minute of going on sale.
Created by Aldebaran Robotics and Japanese mobile giant SoftBank,Pepper went on sale to the general public in Japan June 20. It is “the first humanoid(类人的) robot designed to live with humans”,Aldebaran says on its website. Pepper costs about1,600. And like all good mobile products,there’s a120 per month data fee,as well as an80 per month damage insurance fee. According to a news report,Pepper can pick up on human emotions and create his own using a “multi-layer neural(神经的) network”.Pepper’s touch sensors and cameras are said to influence its mood, which is displayed on the tablet-sized screen on its chest.
Pepper will sigh when unhappy,and can go around your house recording your family’s daily activity. Aldebaran says Pepper can feel “joy,surprise,anger,doubt and sadness”,but it doesn’t say how strongly it can feel these emotions.What happens when Pepper is having a bad day? Will it,like many humans,become uncooperative? Will it ask for some time alone? What happens if it knows
that its purpose in life is just to take part in small talk? Thankfully,Pepper is only about four feet tall,with roller balls instead of legs,so if it is angry with and even turns on its owners,you’ll be safe if you can make it upstairs.
Aldebaran says in reality,they’re probably quite a few years away from artificial intelligence that could create real emotions.Aldebaran wasn’t immediately able to tell when Pepper will be available out of Japan,but additional sales are scheduled for July after the first 1,000 units sell out. SoftBank currently uses the robots in its stores as greeters ,and it plans to offer Pepper to other stores in the future. Hopefully “boredom” is not an emotion Pepper can feel.
28.According to the author,Pepper_______.
A. is very popular among customers B. can not only run but also show fear
C. is going to be sold all over the world D. can deal with many kinds of housework
29.How much do you need to pay for Pepper’s data and damage insurance fee each year?
A. 80 dollars. B. 120 dollars. C. 1,440 dollars. D. 2,400 dollars.
30.Pepper’s height and roller balls are mentioned to_________.
A. introduce its appearance B. tell Pepper won’t get angry
C. show that safety isn’t a big issue D. explain robots have strong emotions
31.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Pepper cannot produce real emotions.
B. Pepper can feel joy,surprise and boredom.
C. Pepper will be sold in other countries next year.
D Pepper is being used as waiters in some restaurants.

Since the first Earth Day in 1970,Americans have become a lot “greener” toward the environment.“We didn't know at that time that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it,”says Bruce Anderson,president of Earth Day USA.
But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement. Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grassroots Americans are taking part in the movement.“The understanding has increased many,many times,”says Gaylord Nelson,the former governor from Wisconsin,who thought up the first Earth Day.
According to US government reports,emissions(排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons. The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9. Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with,the world is a safer and healthier place. A kind of “green thinking ” has become part of practices.
Great improvement has been achieved. In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs;today there are about 6,600. Advanced lights,motors,and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.
Fortyfive years ago,there were hardly any education programs for environment. Today,it's
hard to find a public school,university,or law school that does not have such a kind of program.“Until we do that,nothing else will change!”says Bruce Anderson.
32.According to Anderson,before 1970,Americans had little idea about ______.
A.the social movement B.recycling techniques
C.environmental problems D.the importance of Earth Day
33.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?
A.The grassroots level. B.The business circle.
C.Government officials. D.University professors.
34.What have Americans achieved in environmental protection?
A.They have cut car emissions to the lowest.
B.They have settled their environmental problems.
C.They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.
D.They have reduced pollution through effective measures.
35.What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph?
A.Education. B.Planning. C.Green living. D.CO reduction.

For some people, walking or running outdoors is a great way to exercise. What may not be so great is seeing rubbish all over the ground. Well, some people are doing something about it. 36. ________________ “Plogging” began in Sweden. The name combines the Swedish word “plocka,” which means to pick up, and the word “jogging,” which means to run slowly.
A Swedish man named Erik Ahlström, started the movement in 2016. He moved to Stockholm from a small community (社区) in northern Sweden. Each day he would ride his bike to work. He became worried about the amount of rubbish and litter he saw each day on his way to work. So, he took matters into his own hands . He began picking up the rubbish. 37. ________________
Today, plogging is an official activity, which is becoming more and more popular. People of all ages are welcome to plog. Exercise while helping your community. 38. ________________ It can also build closer social connections in a community. When the street looks bad and it’s dirty, you're going to feel bad about the community. You may even feel less safe because of that. So if we’re all doing our part and picking it up, it’s very easy to help beautify it, and help build those social connection. 39. ________________ You get to feel some social duty when you do this.
Along with cleaning up the environment, there may be another reason to choose plogging instead of just jogging. You may get a better workout. One fitness app, Lifesum, records one hour of plogging as burning 288 calories. 40. ________________
As can be seen, cities around the world now hold plogging events. The goal is to spread the idea that littering is not acceptable. People would think twice before dropping a garbage on the ground.

C. And plogging does good to your health.
D. Usual jogging burns about 235 calories.

Questioning can lead to searching for an answer. If we are in the habit of asking whether that we are told is true, we can find the correct answer and learn more.
Two years ago, our math teacher, Mr. Alex offered us an answer of a difficult math problem in class. Because the answer seemed a little strange, nobody but I doubted it. Think that his solution might be wrong, I carefully analyzed the problem and try to work it out in a different way. Half a hour later, I managed to find the correct answer. When I showed my answer to her, the teacher
praised me for my independently thinking.
From this experience, I have been learnt that questioning can serve as a bridge that helping us to seek the truth.

One possible version:
Dear Adam,
I'm deeply sorry but I have to let you know that I lost the English novel which I borrowed from you a month ago. I like it so much that I took it with me wherever I went. Unfortunately, the other day during a trip to Beijing I was in such a hurry to get off the train that I forgot to put it back in my bag. I'm so sorry as I know the novel was a birthday present from your father.
Hard as I tried, I was not able to find the novel in any bookstore here. I wonder if you would like to take the Chinese-English version which will hopefully help improve your Chinese.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

M: She is away, visiting some friends.

better. It’s hard to make ends meet on this salary.
M: I know. I’ve got two kids and I’m in debt. Luckily, my wife works too. The bad thing is she leaves for work right after I get home.

W: Did the children enjoy the holiday camp or were they all homesick?
M: Well, I must admit some of the younger kids were a little bit unhappy because they’d never been away on their own before and didn’t know some of the other kids. But soon they recovered. By the last day they didn’t want to go home because they were having such a great time.
W: What sort of things did you do with them?
M: Well, there were some trips, including a visit to Hardwick Castle. That was what we did on the first day. I think they were expecting it to be rather boring, especially when they heard they were having a guided tour. But they were wrong — the guide was very interesting. He told them some interesting stories and really made the history of the castle come alive.
W: I can imagine — what sort of sports activities did they do?
M: Sailing, climbing, horse-riding and the like. And on the last day we had a barbecue, which was their favourite. The kids enjoyed it very much. They all promised to come and get together again next year.

W: Good evening, everyone. My name is Joan Li and this is the ten o’clock news. Here are tonight’s top stories. A baby boy was kidnapped from a hospital just hours after being born. Now the baby has been found safe and well in a village house. Two men and a young woman have been arrested and are being questioned by police. Another piece of news. The government’s “free milk” programme for local primary school children has been extremely successful so far. According to a government spokesperson, the programme will help young boys and girls develop stronger bones. Something more. A sale will take place this Tuesday at Guangming Primary School in order to raise funds for a new library. Some of the old donated computers will be sold at discount prices at the sale. A new restaurant has been opened in downtown. Now for tomorrow’s weather. It should be bright and sunny all day. The temperature is expected to reach 36 degrees so it will be extremely hot. The air pollution will be serious as well. I’ll be back with more details after the break.
