Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive experiences in nightmares. Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories. In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out. They are not sure to what degree people’s memories are affected. The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. “Some memories can ruin people’s lives. They come back to you when you don’t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry (精神病学 ) at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.” But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people’s memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. “All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. I’m not sure we want to wipe those memories out,” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist. 60. The passage is mainly about _________. A. a new medical invention B. a new research on the pill C. a way of wiping out painful memories D. an argument about the research on the pill 61. The drug tested on people can _________. A. cause the brain to fix memories B. stop people remembering bad experiences C. prevent body producing certain chemicals D. wipe out the emotional effects of memories 62.

Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph? A. Some memories can ruin people’s lives. B. People want to get rid of bad memories. C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others. D. The pill will reduce people’s sufferings from bad memories. 64. You may probably read the passage in _________.

What helps them to make success? To find out the answers, an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people in America. 71 Be responsible for yourself Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. 72 You’re saying, “You have more control over my life than I do.” Live life “on purpose” Almost all successful people live life “on purpose”— they are doing what they believe they should and want to do. When you live your life on purpose, you’ll try your best to do your job or study as well as you can. You love what you do and you can find pleasure in what you do. Write a plan It is very difficult trying to get what you want without a good plan. 73 A good plan is like a map to you. Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map” you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time. Be willing to pay the price Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard — even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable. Never give up 74 When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope. 75 Once an American writer was writing a novel. He could not have a good ending for his book until one night when he had a very good idea. He was so excited that he made a phone call to one of his best friends. “I’ve got a perfect idea,” he said, “I’ll put it down later and show it to you.” But he never did, because he died that night. His book was left without a perfect ending. So remember, do what you can right away. Never delay at all. A. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away. B. It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done. C. Some people achieve success much later in life because they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work. D. In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success, you’re giving away your own power. E. Someone else’s opinion of you doesn’t have to become your reality. F. Don’t delay G. Here are some keys to success that they give. 第 II 卷 第三部分：写作（共两节，满分 35分） 第一节 短文改错（共 10小题；每小题 1分，满分 10分） 下面文中共有 10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号∧，并在此符号下面写出该加的词。 删除：把多余的词用斜线＼划掉。 修改：在错词下面划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。 注意：1、每处错误及其修改均仅限一词； 2、只允许修改 10处，多者从第 11处不计分。 第二节：书面表达（满分 25分） 假定你是李华，得知你的好友王平现在高三学习非常紧张；父母期望高, 作业繁重，测 试多，高考压力大等，他非常烦恼。请给他写一封信，给出你的建议，帮助他摆脱烦恼。开 头结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 字数要求：100词左右。 Dear Wang Ping, I’ve learned that you are having much trouble in your life and study. ___________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ____________ Looking forward to your reply!
