分析 本文是学生熟悉的校园生活,描写了主人公对音乐由最初的排斥甚至不屑到热爱的心路历程.

解答 36-40 DDACB        
36.D  考查动词辨析.结合句意,Gabriel 同情地看着那些音乐学生带着沉重的乐器箱在学校里艰难(struggle)行进.travel 意为"旅行,移动",march 意为"行军,前进",pace 意为"踱步",语气上不如 struggle 能体现出"可怜的感觉",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
37.D  考查动词短语辨析.结合文意,在练习时间出现(turn up)在学校.rise up 意为"升起,起义",come up 意为"走近,发生,被提出",drive up 意为"抬高,开车到…",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
38.A  考查连词辨析  结合文意,音乐系的学生们要在其他学生出现在学校之前(before)练习数个小时.There 指代 school,表示音乐系的学生们很早到校练习.after 意为"在…之后",until 意为"直到…",since 意为"自从…".均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
39.C 考查动词辨析.结合上文,Gabriel 一点也不想卷入音乐学习中.以及后文提到"as he hated getting to school extra early",因为他讨厌过早到校.因此可以推测文意为他向自己发誓避免(avoid)音乐.betray 意为"背叛",accept 意为"接受",appreciate 意为"欣赏".均不符合文意. 故正确答案为C.
40.B  考查副词辨析  结合后文,Gabriel 在音乐课上随意地弹了钢琴,被老师发现其擅长音乐.与前文提到 Gabriel 讨厌音乐形成了转折关系,因此 however 意为"然而"符合文意.Therefore 意为"因此"表递进,thus 意为"因此"表递进,moreover 意为"此外"表递进.均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
 41-45 ADCBD   
41.A  考查名词辨析. 结合文意可知,音乐课应该是学校课程的一部分(part).basis 意为"基础",由于后文已经说了 standard curriculum,因此 basis 导致句意重复,逻辑不通.nature 意为"自然",spirit 意为"精神",均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
42.D 考查形容词辨析.结合文意可知,他随意地弹奏着钢琴,发现很容易(easy)就弹奏出了曲调.complicate 意为"使复杂化",safe 意为"安全的",confusing 意为"混乱的,使人困惑的",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
43.C  考查动词辨析.结合文意,带着不安的情绪他意识到他实际上享受弹钢琴,与后文 Gabriel 努力隐藏他的快乐形成呼应.miss 意为"想念;错过",dislike 意为"不喜欢",deny 意为"否认".均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
44. B 考查近义词辨析和上下文串联.Gabriel不想让音乐老师看到自己表露出来的很明显的喜悦之情,transparent指(谎言、借口)易看穿的;obvious明显的,显然的,故选B.
45.D  考查动词辨析.结合文意,他努力隐藏来自徘徊着(wander)倾听的音乐老师的快乐.run 意为"跑",jog 意为"慢跑",jump 意为"跳".均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
46-50 AACBC
46.A 考查上下文串联.根据"and suggested that Gabriel go into the music store-room to see if any of the instruments"可知,老师让Gabriel挑选乐器,说明他弹得不够好,钢琴不太适合他,因此是因果关系.故选A.
47.A 考查近义词辨析和上下文串联.老师认为Gabriel有着很好辨音能力,并建议他去挑一件称心的乐器.
ear辨音力,灵敏的听力;taste鉴赏力,欣赏力,指对作品的欣赏能力.由于Gabriel没有经过专业的训练,不能说他有很好的音乐鉴赏能力,taste不符合语境.故选A.
48.C  考查动词辨析.结合文意,老师告诉Gabriel 有很好的辨音能力并且建议他去音乐商店看看有没有吸引(appealed to)他的乐器.occur to意为"突然想起",take to 意为"开始喜欢",为主动的"喜欢",hold to 意为"抓住".均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
49.B  考查名词辨析.结合文意,他决定给大提琴一个机会(chance).change 意为"改变",mission 意为"任务",function 意为"功能".均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.

 51-55 ADBBC  
51.A  考查动词辨析  结合文意,并且很坚定地(committed)练习大提琴以至于在几个月内演奏的相当的好.used 意为"习惯的;二手的",limited 意为"有限的",admitted 意为"公认的;被承认的".均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
52.D  考查动词辨析.结合文意,这意味着(mean)他要到校很早.This 指代前文提到的 Gabriel 练习大提琴.stress意为"强调;使紧张",prove 意为"证明;检验",show 意为"展示".均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
53.B  考查动词辨析.结合文意,拖着(drag)他沉重的乐器箱穿过校园.与文章第一段相呼应.push 意为"推",lift 意为"举起",rush 意为"赶;抢".均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
54.B 考查动词辨析.结合文意,非音乐生怜悯的(pitying)看法.与文章第一段相呼应.admire 意为"钦佩;赞美",annoy 意为"骚扰;使烦恼",tease 意为"取笑;戏弄".均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.

9.Over the last 70 years.researchers have been studying happy and Unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference.Our feelings of well-being at any moment are determined to a certain degree by genes.However of all the factors,wealth and age are the top two.
Money can buy a degree of happiness.But once you can afford to feed,clothe and house yourself,each extra dollar makes less and less difference.
Researchers find that,on average,wealthier people are happier.But the link between money and happiness is complex.In the past half-century,average income has sharply increased in developed countries,yet happiness levels have remained almost the same.Once your basic needs are met,money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends,neighbors and colleagues.
"Dollars buy Status(社会地位),and status makes people feel better,"conclude some experts,which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways-scientists or actors,for example-may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs.
In a research,Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires-not just for money,but for friends,family,job,health-rose furthest beyond what they already had,tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap(差距).Indeed,the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than income alone."The gap measures just blow away the only measures of income,"says Michalos.
Another factor that has to do with happiness is age.Old age may not be so bad."Given all the problems of aging,how could the elderly be more satisfied?"asks Professor Laura Carstensen.
Why are old people happier?Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it,or they're more realistic about their goals,only setting ones that they know they can achieve.But Carstensen thinks that with time running out,older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that don't.
"People realize not only what they have,but also that what they have cannot-last forever,"she says."A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of 85,for example,may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20."

12.According to the passage,the feeling of happinessD.
A.has little to do with wealth
B.increases gradually with age
C.is measured by desires
D.is determined partly by genes
13.Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobsC.
A.make them feel much better
B.provide chances to make friends
C.improve their social position
D.satisfy their professional interests
14.Aged people are more likely to feel happy because they are moreB.
A.optimistic      B.practical      C.successful     D.emotional
15.Professor Alex Michalos found that people feel less happy ifA.
A.the gap between reality and desire is bigger
B.they have a stronger desire for friendship
C.their income is below their expectation
D.the hope for good health is greater.

10.Carpooling is when a driver offers to take passengers in exchange for some money for petrol.As (41)a rsult,carpooling can be (42)cheaper (cheap) han public transport because everynoe in the car shares the cost of petrol.I(43)recently (recent) did carpooling for the first time and it was very easy to find a driver.I used a website (44)which/that lists drivers'profiles (简介) and found someone who was going to the same place as me.A lot of information can(45)be seen (see) in the profiles such as their first name,age and gender(性别) as well as reviews from other passengers.I decided (46)to travel (travel) with a lady who had very good reviews.
I found carpooling to be a(n)(47)impressive (impress) experience.Not only was the trip very cheap,but the driver and the other passengers were really friendly.They were all French so I had the chance to practise (48)speaking (speak) some French.When I waved goodbye to them,a thought  suddenly occurred to me (49)that  carpooling could be the future of travel.Both drivers and passengers can benefit (50)from  this form  of travel.It saves money,and perhaps more importantly,carpooling provides a fantastic opportunity to meet interesting people on your travels.

15.Since quitting can start feelings such as guilt and shame,we often do everything possible to avoid it."We're taught from our earlist days that if you quit something.It means you're a failure,"says counseling psychologist Will Meek.He,however,suggests we view quitting differently.
Quitting is like deciding to rearrange a room:you've grown comfortable with the status,and it can be hard to picture the end result or even see why change is necessary.And yet,there's the upsetting feeling that you're no longer entirely satisfied with your current circumstances,perhaps even that you've stopped making progress.While it's not out of the question for feeling or regret to surface after a major refit,leaving a position,project or situation can reveal exciting possibilities,making you feel inspired and renewed.
Quitting,often happens in situations where we're unhappy,fearful or have determined we have no other choice,factors that can have opposing effects on our health.Perhaps you find your work unfulfilling,or you've jumped into a new relationship before you're ready-and,as a result,you're operating under intense pressure."If stress is enduring and not managed well,it can start to take a toll."says Meek.According to the American Psychological Association,long-term,ongoing stress can increase the risk for high blood pressure and heart attack,so walking away from whatever is causing it can deliver significant physical and emotional health benefits."We often see a reduction in the stress hormone cortisol(应激激素皮质醇),which can lower blood pressure and may even decrease the heart rate,"says Dr Alex Lickerman,a GP and expert on developing mental adaptability.
Leaving situations that fail to bring you joy can leave you with sufficient time to explore where your heart is truly leading you.In a study that was published in 1999,then Harvard University professor Hermina Ibarra looked at how bankers tried different roles that required new skill sets-someone who spent a lot of time dealing with computers,for instance,was asked to take on personal interactions.Subjects were especially drawn to acting out a version of their future solves through‘imitation strategies'-an approach they compared to‘trying on different clothes,'Mark Franklin,the president of CareerCyles,suggests a similar approach as a way to figure out what your true desires might be in your post-quitting life and foresee your future self."Pretend to be a certain kind of person,or go and meet others who are doing what you want to do."he says,"Try it on,see how it feels and decide if it's a good fit for you."It may not feel like it at the time,but just moving on from a situation that's not quite right can help you get back on track.

63.It can be inferred from paragraph 2that quitting may bring us feelings of being bothC.
A.guilty and ashamed   
B.stupid and enthusiastic
C.troubled and hopeful 
D.inspired and determined
64.The phrase"take a toll"(paragraph 3)can be best replaced by"D".
A.develop mental adaptability  
B.bring about changes
C.keep up the pressure        
D.have a bad effect
65.An approach suggested by Mark Franklin similar to‘trying on different clothes'is forA.
A.helping people find what truly suits them in career
B.telling capable employees from inadequate ones
C.training employees to acquire different working skills
D.providing people with opportunities to have a role play
66.It can be concluded from the passage thatD.

5.Dubai:An Indian man killed himself in Dubai by throwing himself under a train after his employer refused him the right to return home,newspapers in the Gulf emirate reported on Thursday.A driverless Dubai Metro (地铁) train struck the man on a track on Monday,the Gulf News daily said."His body was left beyond recognition and police took two days to identify him,"it reported.
"The 36-year-old had used an emergency fire exit to access the track,"the paper quoted Dubai police chief General Khamis al-Mazeina as saying,adding he was thought to have been under the influence of alcohol.A friend of the victim who had been in Dubai since 2010 told police the man was depressed and unhappy because he wanted to go back home but the sponsor (保荐人),for no clear reasons,was not letting him go.
 The Indian man?s work visa had been cancelled after he charged his employer.Under the sponsorship system (保荐制度) for foreign workers in the United Arab Emirates,employers take possession of their passports.
"We are looking for the reason why the company delayed sending the man back home,"Mazeina said.
The suicide is the first of its kind reported since the Dubai Metro began operations in September 2009.Platforms in metro stations are protected by glass doors that slide open only when a train is there.
 The UAE and other Gulf countries have come under repeated criticism from human rights groups over their treatment of millions of foreign workers,mostly South Asians.The watchdogs have particularly criticized the sponsorship system,still in force in most Gulf states,by which workers must be sponsored by their employer.
 
56.What's the best title of the article?A
A.Indian denied returning home jumps under Dubai train
B.The sponsorship system should be cancelled
C.Measures taken to avoid train accidents
D.Death caused by depression
57.Why was the man killed himself?D
A.Because he lost his passport.
B.Because he had a spiritual disease.
C.Because he had no home to go back.
D.Because he was refused to go back home.
58.What's the root cause of the man's death?C
A.The driver of the train.
B.The poor traffic system.
C.The sponsorship system.
D.The poor working condition.
59.Who kept the passport of the man?B
A.The man himself.
B.The man's employer.
C.The policeman.
D.The man's friend.

12.The Netherlands on Monday launched its first-ever"intelligent bicycle",fitted with a set of electronic devices (设备) to help bring down the high accident rate among elderly cyclists in this country.
The intelligent bicycle runs on electricity.Its seat shakes when other cyclists approach from behind,while the handlebars do the same when obstacles appear ahead to inform cyclists to pay attention to the danger.It also has a cradle (置物架) in which a computer can be inserted (插入),to wirelessly connect and"talk"to the bicycle through a particular application.The computer also flashes a bright signal if there is an approaching obstacle in the bicycle's path,like a tree,or if another cyclist comes up from behind intending to pass.
A commercial-available bicycle is expected to be on the market in the next two years and should sell for between 1,700 euros to 3,200 euros per bicycle.It weighs about 55pounds but researchers are working on making the on-board systems smaller.
‘‘Accidents often happen when cyclists look behind them or get frightened when they ar passed at high speed,"said Maurice Kwakkernaat,one of the scientists involved in the project,"The on-board system technology has already been at work in the automotive (自动的) industry".
"More and more elderly people are using a bicycle,not only for short distances,but also for longer distances,"Dutch Environment Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen said,"This type of bicycle is truly needed in the Netherlands because it will help us bring down the number of elderly people who are injured every year and allow them to continue enjoying cycling,"she said.

29.What does the text mainly talk about?A
A.The newly-invented bicycle can warn of danger.
B.The intelligent computer runs on electricity.
C.More elderly people enjoy electronic devices.
D.The means of transportation in the Netherlands.
30.When a car appears ahead,the intelligent bicycle willC.
A.stop by itself
B.make a noise
C.warn its cyclist
D.change its color
31.What do you know about the intelligent bicycle?C
A.It uses gas as the fuel.
B.It is widely used now.
C.It will be lighter in weight.
D.It will be free for everyone.
32.More and more elderly people in the NetherlandsB.
A.try to invent intelligent bicycles
