    3．On July 12th，2012，an airplane took off from the capital airport of Belgium．After about an hour's flight，something （61）unbelievable （ believe ） happened on the plane．The airhostess was about to serve lunch（62）when a small mouse stole out from the bag of a young man，（63）which made the young woman nearby fall in terror with loud screaming．Then more and more（64）mice （ mouse ） came out of the bag．（65）caught （ catch ） by surprise，the other passengers all shouted in panic．The steward（机长）managed to get in touch with the control center on the ground．With the order from the ground，the plane （66）successfully （ succeed ） landed at the nearest airport．As soon as the plane was on the ground，all the passengers got off．Then seven specialists got on （67）to kill （ kill ） these small creatures．Many means had been tried，but （68）none of them were good enough．
    At last they tried to fill in the plane（69）with carbon-dioxide，which poisoned all of the small creatures．It（70）was reported （ report ） that the young man wanted to carry them to another city and sell them as pets but no one expected that these small creatures succeeded in escaping from the bag．

    分析 本字讲述了飞机上的一场意外．一架从比利时机场起飞的飞机在飞行过程中发生了一件意想不到的事情，从一位乘客的袋子里钻出来了许多老鼠，使得很多乘客陷入恐慌之中，在请示地面控制中心之后飞机在最近的一个机场成功降落，几位专家上了飞机准备灭掉老鼠，尝试了很多办法都不奏效，最后他们不得不试着向飞机里灌注二氧化碳毒死老鼠．据说那位年轻乘客打算把那些老鼠带到另一个城市当作宠物卖掉，没想到老鼠们成功逃出了袋子．

    解答 61．unbelievable；考查形容词，根据上下文语境，这句意思为"飞机飞行了一小时后，一件意想不到的事情发生了"．所以空格处用unbelievable．
    62．when；考查连词的用法，这里when意为"正在这时，突然"，这句意为"空姐们正要准备早餐这时一只老鼠从一位年轻乘客的袋子里钻了出来"．
    63．which；考查关系代词，这是一个定语从句，which指代前面的  a small mouse stole out from the bag of a young man．   
    64．mice；考查名词复数，根据句意，这里应该用名词的复数形式，mouse的复数形式是不规则变化 mice．     
    65．caught；考查分词作状语，分词作状语时，现在分词表示主动，过去分词表示被动，句中主语和动词是被动关系，所以用过去分词 caught 作状语．
    66．successfully；考查副词，这里要修饰的是动词landed，所以要用副词形式． 
    67．to kill；考查动词的不定时，在这里不定时表示目的．     
    68．none； 考查句意，结合上下文句意，专家尝试了很多办法来灭掉老鼠，但是没有一个起作用，所以空格处用none．
    69．with；考查介词，fill…with 是一个固定用法，意为"用…充填"．
    70．was reported；考查固定句型，It is/was reported that 是固定句型，意为"据报道…"．

    点评 首先要通读全文，了解大意，抓住上下文语境所提供的信息，仔细分析带空格的句子，明确空格所要填的词义，词型和短语搭配给出所要填的正确形式，然后整体阅读短文，核对答案

    13．The air quality has worsened in the Chinese capital since Wednesday，causing renewed discontent among residents．
    Without rainfall and wind to decrease pollutants，particulate matter（颗粒物质） has been accumulating in the air．Most monitoring stations measured PM 10 （particulate matter smaller than 10 micrograms） at higher than 300 micrograms per cubic meter．In southwestern Beijing's Fangshan District，the Liangxiang station recorded 516 micrograms of PM 10 per cubic meter，the highest reading of the day，according to the Beijing Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center．More than 150 micrograms is considered harmful to health．

    The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention suggests people stay at home to protect themselves from breathing and heart problems caused by heavy smog and people with breathing problems put off traveling if the smog stays．But many people said they had to brave the bad air to travel，especially migrants who are eager to reunite with their families during the Spring Festival．

    18．Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness，happiness，goodness，and self-respect？The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as"honor"help you create this life of good feelings．
    Here's an example to show how honorable actions create happiness．
    Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item．If we keep silent，and profit from the clerk's mistake，we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement．Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune．On the other hand，if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item，the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty．We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul．
    Then，what is it to do with our sense of happiness？
    In the first case，where we don't tell the clerk，a couple of things would happen．Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief．In the process，we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect．We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted，since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends．We damage our own reputations by telling others．In contrast，bringing the error to the clerk's attention causes different things to happen．Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable．Upon leaving the store，we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased．Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility．
    There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions．Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions．Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence．And it's easy to think and act honorably again when we're happy．While the positive cycle can be difficult to start，once it's started，it's easy to continue．Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind，which is important for our happiness．

    51．According to the passage，the positive action in the example contributes to ourA．
    A．self-respect 
    B．financial rewards 
    C．advertising ability 
    D．friendly relationship
    52．The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal toB．
    A．lying           B．stealing        
    C．cheating        D．advertising
    53．The phrase"bringing the error to the clerk's attention"（in para.5）meansA．
    A．telling the truth to the clerk          
    B．offering advice to the clerk
    C．asking the clerk to be more attentive   
    D．reminding the clerk of the charged item
    54．How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake？C
    A．We'll be very excited．
    B．We'll feel unfortunate．
    C．We'll have a sense of honor．
    D．We'll feel sorry for the clerk．
    55．Which of the following can be the best title of this passage．D
    A．How to Live Truthfully          
    B．Importance of Peacefulness
    C．Ways of Gaining Self-respect     
    D．Happiness through Honorable Actions．

    5．Why Laughter Matters
    Although most people believe that laughter is one of the nature's great treatments for a whole range of mental and physical diseases，it is still a serious scientific subject that researchers are trying to figure out．
    "Laughter above all else is a social thing，"says Baltimore neuroscientist，Robert Provine，who has studied laughter for decades．"All laughter groups laugh‘ha-ha-ha'basically the same way．Whether you speak Mandarin，French or English，everyone will understand laughter．There is a pattern generator（发生器） in our brain that produces this sound．"
    Laughing is our first way of communicating．Babies laugh long before they speak．No one teaches them how to laugh．They just do．People may laugh at a prank（恶作剧） on April Fools'day．But surprisingly，only 10to 15percent of laughter is the result of someone making a joke．Laughter is mostly about social responses rather to a joke．Deaf people laugh without hearing and people on cell phones laugh without seeing，showing that laughter isn't dependent on single sense but on social interactions．
    And laughter is not just a people thing．Chimps tickle（挠痒） each other and even laugh when another chimp pretends to tickle them．
    Jaak Panksepp，a Bowling Green University Psychology professor，studies rats that laugh when he tickles them．It turns out rats love to be tickled-they return again and again to the hands of researchers tickling them．
    By studying rats，scientists can figure out what's going on in the brain during laughter．Northwestern University biomedical engineering professor，Jeffrey Burgdorf has found that laughter in rats produces a chemical that acts as an antidepressant（抗抑郁药）．He thinks the same thing probably happens in humans，too．This would give doctors a new chemical target to develop drugs that can fight depression．
    Even so，laughter itself has not been proved to be the best medicine，experts said．Margaret Stuber，a professor at University of California，studied whether laugher helped patients．She found that distraction（分心） and mood improvement helped，but she could not find a benefit of laughter alone．
    "No study has shown that laughter produces a direct health benefit，"Provine said，largely because it's hard to separate laughter from just feeling good．But he thinks it doesn't really matter："Isn't the fact that laughter feels good when you do it enough？"

    67．The most important finding of Robert Provine's research is thatA．
    A．laughter makes a person feel good
    B．laughter depends on different senses
    C．laughter is a quality people are born with
    D．laughter is a social response shared by all creatures
    68．According to the passage，scientists studied rats in order to findC．
    A．if they can laugh
    B．if they like laughing
    C．what laughter in rats produces
    D．how rats react while being tickled
    69．What can we learn from the passage？B
    A．Patients will recover if they laugh enough．
    B．Laughter is a means of communication as well as language．
    C．A new medicine has been developed based on the laughter research．
    D．Scientists can know what is happening in a human brain when he laughs．
    70．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage？D

    CP：Central point   P：Point   Sp：Sub-point（次要点）   C：Conclusion．

    2．A new set of R's is here：Recycle，Reduce and Reuse．These three"Rs"，when used every day，can reduce the amount of waste going into landfills，reduce the litter polluting the land and water，conserve（节约，保存）energy and save you money．
    Recycling is one of the easiest ways to save energy，money and time while reducing the amount of garbage going into landfills．
    Most communities have roadside pick-up service to recycle common household items like glass，steel，aluminum，newspaper and cardboard．By separating out the recyclable items from normal household trash，you can reduce the amount of trash entering a landfill by more than 75percent．
    Recycling one aluminum beverage can（饮料罐）saves enough energy to run your television for three hours．Even better，local recyclers or scrap-metal dealers may pay money for your metal recyclables．
    It is estimated that the 54billion cans recycled last year in the US saved l5million barrels of oil．That is equivalent（相等的）to the US oil consumption for one day．Recycling other household items offers similar savings in money and energy．
    Composting food waste will reduce your trash load even more．A basic compost pile built with the help of instructions from numerous resources on the web can be constructed over a weekend，using materials easily obtained from local hardware or home improvement stores．In addition to reducing your waste，this all-natural recycling provides safe，clean and organic fertilizer for your garden，eliminating the need to buy chemical-derived products．
    Finally，recycling other household items like computers，televisions and monitors and household chemicals like pesticides（农药）and paints will remove dangerous chemicals like mercury（水银）and lead from the landfills．
    If your community doesn't offer recycling programs，contact your local government to get one established．

    46．What's WRONG about recycling in the eyes of the author？C
    A．It's energy-efficient．    B．It's money-saving．
    C．It's time-consuming．      D．It's environmentally friendly．
    47．RecyclingCaluminum beverage cans saves enough energy to keep your TV on for half a day．
    A．six    B．five    C．four    D．three
    48．What's the possible meaning of the underlined word"Composting"in the sixth paragraph？A
    A．To turn waste into fertilizer．        B．To throw waste into dustbin．
    C．To make waste clean and useful．       D．To find new land to put the rubbish in．
    49．The following paragraph of the text may talk aboutA．
    A．something about reusing    B．recycling programs
    C．community activity         D．environment protection
    50．The text tells us the way of living aC life．
    A．happy    B．rich    C．green    D．economical．

    3．"The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself； to be conquered by himself is，of all things，the most shameful，"says Plato．Self-control is at the root of all the advantages．Let a man give in to his impulses （冲动） and feelings，and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom．
    A single angry word has lost many friends．When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger，he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself．If you are conscious of being angry，keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger．Many a person has dropped dead in great anger．Fits of anger bring fits of disease．"Whoever the gods would destroy，they first make them mad．""Keep cool，"says Webster，"anger is not argument．""Be calm in arguing，"says George Herbert，"for fierceness （狂怒） makes error a fault．"
    To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself．"Anger，"says Pythagoras，"begins with foolishness and ends with regret．"You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers，not by the power of those which conquer him．
    Self-control is man's last and greatest victory．
    If a man lacks self-control he seems t o lack everything．Without it he can have no patience，no power to govern himself； he can have no self-confidence，for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling．If he lacks self-control，the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking too．
    28．What's the main idea of the passage？A
    A．Self-control is important for a man．
    B．We should learn to be strong．
    C．A man who keeps cool won't lose any game．
    D．The great heroes in history knew how to control themselves．
    29．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean？D
    A．If you are mad，the gods will fail you．
    B．If you lose your temper first，gods will fail you first．
    C．If you can't control yourself，you will be crazy．
    D．If the gods want to fail you，they will make you mad first．
    30．Which of the following is NOT true，according to passage？C
    A．The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself．
    B．You will make a small mistake serious if you don't keep cool．
    C．You must measure a man's strength by the power of the feelings which conquer him．
    D．Anger begins with foolishness and ends with regret．
    31．Which of the following can't help you avoid anger，according to the passage？D
    A．Being calm in arguing．
    B．Checking your temper or anger by speaking low．
    C．Keeping your mouth shut．
    D．Trying to make the other angry first．
