A
A trip to London
My family had dreamed of a trip to London for a long time. Luckily it was possible for us to realize our dream because all of us were free on the weekend.
We planned to drive into Cambridge and caught the 7: 34 train to Liverpool Street Station.Then my wife and I would separate from Joan, my wife’s sister, to do different things and finally meet again for lunch. And after lunch, we would go to the concert.
But we were late because of a thick London fog. The train had to move along so slowly that it was not until 10:30 that it got there. In spite of our late arrival, Joan decided that she would go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping. It was only after her sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadn’t decided where we should meet for lunch. Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket, this was indeed a problem. We didn’t have any mobile phones at that time. There seemed to be nothing we could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London, and try to find her there. Needless to say, we didn’t find her.
It was now one o’clock, and the concert began at 2: 30. “Perhaps she will think of waiting outside the concert hall,” said my wife hopefully. By this time the fog was so thick that road traffic had to stop, and the only way to get there was by subway. Hand in hand we felt our way along the road to where we thought the nearest station should be. An hour later we were still trying to find it.Just when I was about to become angry, we met a blind man tapping his way confidently through the fog. With his help we found the subway station which was just fifty meters down the road.
By now it was far too late to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2: 30, so we decided to return to Cambridge. It took seven hours instead of the usual two to make that journey. Nor were we able to get any food and drink on the train. We were tired and hungry.
We finally reached home at ten. Opening the door we were amazed to find Joan at home; she had seen the Crown Jewels, had managed to get another ticket for concert, and had had a wonderful dinner at a restaurant. Of course, she managed to get home, too. Oh my god!
31. What did the writer plan to do after lunch that day?
A. Go to the concert. B. Return to Cambridge.
C. Go shopping. D. See the Crown Jewels.
32. The writer and his wife separated from Joan because _______.
A. they were late for the concert
B. Joan didn’t want to go to the concert
C. there was a thick fog
D. they planned to do different things until lunch time
33. Who helped the writer find the subway station?
A. A taxi driver. B. A blind man. C. His wife. D. Joan.

High-Wire Act
Mickey Wilson had been on the mountain only a few seconds when he heard the scream. Wilson, 28 years old, had just gotten off the cable car ( 索道缆车 ) at the
Arapahoe Basin Ski Area in Keystone, Colorado, along with his friends Billy Simmons and Hans Mueller. Their friend Richard had been on the cable car ahead of them, but when the men reached the top of the lift, he had disappeared. The men walked toward the source of the scream and found skiers stopped on the slope, pointing to the cable car. And then the friends screamed too.
“Oh, Richard!” yelled Mueller.
When Richard had tried to jump off the cable car, his backpack had been caught in the chair, which then dragged him back down the hill. In the process, the backpack belt twisted around his neck, making him breathless. Now Richard’s body was swinging four feet above the snow. The cable car operator had quickly stopped it, and the friends kicked off their skis and ran toward the scene. They made a human pyramid to try to reach Richard, but the unconscious man was too far off the ground. With the clock ticking, Wilson ran to the ladder of a nearby lift tower. Scared skiers watched as he struggled the 25 feet. After he reached the top, Wilson’s first challenge was to climb onto the two-inch steel cable that held the chairs. He handled the balance and height bravely, but he knew he could not walk on the cable. Therefore, he calmed down and sat over it and then used his hands to pull himself to Richard quickly. Wilson’s greatest fear wasn’t that he’d fall, but that he wouldn’t reach Richard. “This was life or death,” he said.
When he reached Richard’s chair, Wilson swung a leg over the cable and attempted to drop down onto it. But as he did that, his jacket caught on the movable footrest, which was in the up position. The footrest began to slide down, with Wilson attached. But before that could happen, he managed to free himself and reached Richard.
Fortunately, the ski patrol (巡查) had gathered below and performed emergency treatment on Richard, who had been hanging for about five minutes, then skied him down to an ambulance.
That night, Richard called from the hospital to express his thanks to Wilson, his other friends and the workers at the Arapahoe Basin Ski Area.
34. What happened to Richard when he tried to jump off the cable car?
A. He was sick and became unconscious.
B. He left his skis which stopped the cable car.
C. He was too afraid to move forward in the cable car.
D. He was caught by the neck, hanging down the cable.
35. How did Richard survive?
A. People worked together and saved him.
B. Wilson climbed on the cable and saved him.
C. The ski patrol got him down and treated him.
D. Skiers treated him and carried him to the hospital.
36. The author wrote the fourth paragraph to show that _______.
A. the rescue process was dangerous
B. something was wrong with the cable car
C. Wilson could manage the process very well
D. the operator of the cable car ignored his duty
37. The story at the Arapahoe Basin Ski Area mainly tells us ______.
A. it is very dangerous to go skiing
A. he that climbs high often falls heavily
B. bravery and calm can help you make a difference
C. a person with a great talent always has great will-power
C
You can’t walk into the office without Rihanna’s voice singing “work work work work work work” in your head. And that one line from Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” still makes you want to scream. These are commonly known as earworm songs—those sticky tunes that continue to play in your head. A recent study finds that more than 90% of adults report hearing earworm songs on a weekly basis.
Fortunately, most people report earworm songs as pleasant. But others find them annoying or even maddening. “Some people are troubled by them to the point that it disturbs life,” says Elizabeth Hellmuth Margulis, a professor at the University of Arkansas who has studied earworm songs.
Margulis says earworm songs tend to have some predictable characteristics. For one thing, they tend to be small parts of a song—not the whole track. And “the songs you’ve heard recently also have the most possibility to get stuck in your memory,” she says.
But sometimes something strange and unpredictable can also start a track playing in your head. “Once I was at the doctor’s office and saw a poster of a man who I thought looked like Gaston—a character from Beauty and the Beast,” Margulis recalls. A couple minutes passed, and she realized she couldn’t get “Be Our Guest”, the song in the movie, out of her head, even though she hadn’t thought of the tune in years. In that instance, she was able to identify her earworm’s trigger: the Gaston-looking man in the poster. “But the connections can be really unclear,” she says.
Margulis points out that, in all of human history, recorded music is a very new phenomenon. She says some have inferred that earworm songs are also new—the unintended consequence of being able to hear the same song played everywhere in the same way over and over again. So far, the convincing explanation for why human beings experience earworm songs remains a mystery. But there are some well-established ways to cast off the earworm songs.
“Finding a mentally demanding task and putting your mind on it usually shifts attention away from internal music. People tend to get earworms when performing tasks that don’t require their full attention—stuff like doing the dishes,” Margulis says.
Chewing gum can also help. When a song is stuck in our heads, it’s almost like we’re singing along with it. If you make your mouth do something else—chewing gum, eating a meal or talking with a friend—that can kick out the earworm.
You could also face your enemy. By listening to the full track that includes the passage stuck in your head, you may find “closure” and relief.
38. Which of the following is most likely to be an earworm song?
A. A song made up of simple words.
B. A song heard frequently these days.
C. A song sung by a most famous singer.
D. A song learned during one’s childhood.
39. What does the underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Type. B. Tune. C. Cause. D. Characteristic.
40. We can infer that earworm songs may _______.
A. result from modern technology
B. be experienced over meals
C. help regain lost memories
D. hurt one’s hearing
41. What is mainly talked about in the last three paragraphs?
A. Why we hear earworm songs.
B. Where to find earworm songs.
C. When we hear earworm songs.
D. How to get over earworm songs.
D
Cycling
You need only look at a professional cyclist to appreciate the potential effects of cycling on the body. But what about the mind? It’s a question that has long challenged anyone who has wondered how riding a bike can offer what feels close to a state of emptying your mind.
Dr. John Ratey thinks cycling increases “the chemistry in your brain that makes you feel calm,” but also that carrying out multiple operations while cycling can be an effective treatment, as shown in a German study involving 115 children, half of whom did activities such as cycling that involved complex movements, while the rest performed more straightforward exercises with the same aerobic (有氧的) demands. Both groups did better than they previously had in concentration tests, but the “complex” group did a lot better.
There have been other interesting findings too. In 2003, Dr. Jay Alberts rode a tandem bicycle, a bicycle built for two riders sitting one behind the other, across the American state of Ohio with a friend who has Parkinson’s ( 帕金森 ) disease, a condition affecting the nervous system. The idea was to raise awareness of the disease, but to the surprise of both riders, the patient showed significant improvements. Dr. Jay Alberts then scanned the brains of 26 Parkinson’s patients during and after an eight-week exercise programme using bikes. Half the patients were allowed to ride at their own paces, while the others were pushed harder. All patients improved, and the group which was pushed harder showed particularly significant increases in connectivity between areas of intelligence responsible for functions such as walking and picking things up.
We don’t know how this happens, but there is more evidence of the link between
Parkinson’s and cycling. A video on the Internet shows a 58-year-old man with severe Parkinson’s. At first, we watch the patient trying to walk. He can barely stand and his hands shake uncontrollably. Then we see the man on a bicycle being supported by others. With a push, he’s off, cycling past cars with perfect balance. Doctors don’t fully understand this discrepancy either, but say that cycling may act as some sort of action that helped the patient’s brain.
The science of cycling is incomplete, but perhaps the most remarkable thing for the everyday rider is that it can require no conscious focus at all. The mindlessness of cycling can not only make us happier, but also leave room for other thoughts. On the
seat of my bike, I’ve solved problems at work and made life decisions, as, I’m sure, have countless others.
42. What does the study described in Paragraph 2 suggest?
A. Cycling has a good effect on physical fitness.
B. The tasks involved in cycling can be hard for children.
C. Lack of exercise like cycling causes lack of concentration.
D. Cycling can improve the ability to focus attention on a task.
43. Studies of people with Parkinson’s show that ______.
A. cycling does more good if sufferers put more effort into it
B. cycling on tandem bikes has a better effect on the disease
C. not every person with Parkinson’s will benefit from cycling
D. social awareness is more important for Parkinson’s sufferers
44. What does the underlined part “this discrepancy” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Why Parkinson’s affects some people and not others.
B. Why someone with Parkinson’s can cycle but not walk.
C. How cycling could be included in treatment for Parkinson’s.
D. How a link between cycling and Parkinson’s was discovered.
45. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. The effect of cycling is not yet fully understood.
B. Cycling is believed to be both complex and mindless.
C. Cycling has a significant influence on people’s mind.
D. People may be more intelligent with the help of cycling.

Urban Wildlife
Cities are diverse ecosystems. In addition to visitors from the wild, a large number of species share our urban areas. As our cities spread, we need to think about what it is like for other species to have human neighbors.
Cities are built for humans. 46 For example, most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful. But when we cut grass or plant flowers, we destroy natural habitats.
47 When a bridge in Austin, Texas was repaired, engineers added small gaps running along the length of its bottom. This made a good home for bats, and soon the bridge was the home of thousands of bats. 48 Now, they have come to value their winged neighbors. The bats are a tourist attraction, and they eat lots of bugs every night.
There are also structures built with the aim of bringing wildlife into the city. The Beijing Olympic Forest Park is a good example. The park used native plants and created open, natural spaces for wildlife. The result is a zone in Beijing with over 160 species of birds. In many ways, the park is the opposite of a zoo. 49
If we learn to share our space, we can become better neighbors to the wildlife around us. 50 Our own future will be endangered too.
A. They are built to protect birds.
B. Our actions sometimes help other species.
C. If we do not, more species will become extinct.
A. They do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife.
B. Instead of being kept in cages, wildlife can move about freely.
C. At first, people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them.
D. They would sit on it and their droppings would fall into the water.

One possible version:
Last week, an activity called "Beijing opera entering Campus" was held in our school.
In the morning, two famous artists came to our school as planned. When they came into the room, we clapped warmly. After a casual chatting, the artists were invited to the hall to give us a detailed introduction to the Beijing opera. With great expectation, we listened attentively and learned that there are five main roles in Beijing opera, and the
facial mask on each of them tells the characteristics of the role. To help us better understand Beijing opera, the artist also showed us several classic examples of singing and acting.
After the lecture, we couldn't wait to start the following training sessions. One artist showed us how to paint the facial mask on our face, and the other taught us the typical moves step by step. Under the patient guidance of the artists, we learned the basic skills and developed strong interest. After several rehearsals, we were ready to stage a scene from "Journey to the West". On the performing day, with excitement and nervousness, I played Sun Wukong with the lady artist. To our great delight, our performance won the applause of our schoolmates.
Through this activity, I've found Beijing opera appealing and learned it must take a long and hard training to become a good performer. I am expecting to spread Beijing opera to more audience.
