1．When I was a kid，I used to spend hours listening to Adam Carolla and Dr．Drew Pinsky on their Sunday night radio show Loveline．I listened so often that I began to use one of their well-known phrases-"good times"-in my daily conversations．Scientists have a name for this phenomenon：behavioral mimicry．
You've probably experienced this before：after spending enough time with another person，you might start to pick up on his or her behavior or speech habits．You might even start to develop your friend's habits without realizing it．There is a large body of literature concerning this sort of phenomenon，and it regularly happens for everything from body gesture to accents to drink patterns（模式）．For example，one study found that young adults were more likely to drink their drink directly after their same-sex drinking partners，than for the two individuals to drink at their own paces．
And the effect isn't limited to real-life face-to-face activities．Another study found that the same you-drink-then-I-drink pattern held even when watching a movie!In other words，people were more likely to take a drink of their drinks in a theater after watching the actors on the screen enjoy a drink．At least I don't feel so strange anymore，having picked up on Adam Carolla's"good times"．
New research published today in the journal PLOS ONE indicates that the same sort of behavioral mimicry is responsible for social eating，at least among university-age women of normal weight．That's right：the young women were more likely to adjust their eating according to the eating pace of their same-sex dining companion．
As with most experiments，these results raise a whole new set of questions．However，the finding that behavioral mimicry may at least partly explain eating behavior is important，and has real effects on health．The researchers note that"as long as people don't fully recognize such important influences on intake （eating），it will be difficult to make healthy food choices and keep a healthy diet，especially when people are exposed to the eating behavior of others"．
25．The author takes his own example of using"good times"toD．
A．express his love for radio shows
B．prove the popularity of the show
C．show the influence of the hosts'words
D．introduce the topic of the passage
26．Which of the following is NOT an example of behavioral mimicry？B
A．A boy eats his popcorn after watching the actor eat．
B．A boy buys a Nike shirt when he finds his desk-mate has one．
C．A girl unconsciously sits straight just as others do．
D．A girl takes on the Yorkshire accent after a month's stay．
27．It can be inferred from the last paragraph thatC．
A．behavioral mimicry is beneficial to our health
B．behavioral mimicry decides our eating behavior
C．people have realized the effect of behavioral mimicry on our health
D．It's impossible to keep a healthy diet without knowing behavioral mimicry
28．What is probably the author's purpose of writing this passage？B
A．To draw readers'attention to popular radio shows．
B．To introduce behavioral mimicry and its influence．
C．To appeal to readers not to fall into others'habits．
D．To advocate healthy food choices among readers．

分析本文讲述了行为模仿是什么以及告诉我们行为模仿的影响．

解答 25-28 DBCB
25 D 写作意图题．作者通过经常收听广播后，开始使用里面的语言，然后引起话题：行为模仿．选D．
26 B 推理判断题．根据In other words，people were more likely to take a drink of their drinks in a theater after watching the actors on the screen enjoy a drink．可知A属于行为模仿．C想通过常识判断属于行为模仿；而作者本身就是对语言的模仿，所以D项也正确．B项属于有意识的跟风，并非行为模仿．
27 C推理题．根据最后一段However，the finding that behavioral mimicry may at least partly explain eating behavior is important，and has real effects on health．可知，行为模仿对我们的健康是有影响的．
28 B作者意图题．作者写本文的目的就是为了介绍行为模仿这个概念以及告诉我们行为模仿的影响．

点评本文要求考生在阅读理解整体语篇的基础上，把握文章的真正内涵．要吃透文章的字面意思，从字里行间捕捉有用的提示和线索，这是推理的前提和基础；要对文字的表面信息进行挖掘加工，由表入里，由浅入深，从具体到抽象，从非凡到一般，通过分析、综合、判定等，进行深层处理，符合逻辑地推理．不能就是论事，断章取义，以偏概全．要忠实于原文，以文章提供的事实和线索为依据．

9．People are overweight for many reasons，the most important one of which is that they eat the wrong foods，get the wrong types of calories per meal，and they also eat meals at the wrong time each day．Food is more powerful than any weight loss pill，because the food that you eat can either make you thin or fat．This is true because your body is like an engine，and it only needs certain foods at certain intervals（间隔） each day．
Low-calorie Diets Do Not Work
The reason people cannot lose weight by starving themselves is that their metabolism（新陈代谢） will detect any major drop in calories and it will then adjust itself by burning fewer calories each day．That is the reason why you can eat 1，000calories per day and not lose any weight，while your friends can eat 2，500calories per day and not gain any weight．
Low-fat Diets Do Not Work
Many people in today's society are buying mostly low-fat or non-fat food at the grocery store．Everybody knows how much fat is inside the food they buy．However，people are getting fatter than ever before by doing this．They are not losing weight by changing to this low-fat lifestyle．
Losing weight has nothing to do with these things．One of the most important things you can do to control your weight is to eat the proper foods，such as fruit and vegetables，eat them at the right time，and exercise every day．If people make this a habit，they will lose weight．
25．What is the main reason why people are overweight？B
A．They burn many calories every day．
B．They eat the wrong foods at the wrong time．
C．They eat food with lots of calories．
D．They don't take weight loss pills．

A．tell readers not to buy low-fat or non-fat food．
B．tell readers about an important scientific discovery．
C．tell readers how to lose weight．
D．call on people to lose weight and stay healthy．
27．To realize the aim of your weight loss plan，you shouldA．

16．A recent study has shown that eating a small amount of dark chocolate every day could be good for your health．Scientists have found that a regular 2ounces can help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of having a heart attack or stroke（中风）without any weight gain．But take care before you reach for a large bar．The effects are canceled out if more than 30calories are taken into your body each day，the researchers warn．
It's already known that a chemical called polyphenol（多酚），found in chocolate，can help reduce blood pressure，and blood pressure lowered in this way can reduce the risk of death from a stroke by 8percent and from a heart attack by 5percent，scientists declare．And it can also reduce the risk or death in general by 4percent．
A daily diet with a little chocolate has the same effect with some special diets designed to lower blood pressure，according to one researcher．"Although all the degree of the blood pressure reduction is small，the effects are quite obvious，"the researchers said．
However，Sara Stanner，a nutritionist at the British Heart Foundation，is quite cautious．"This study suggests that small quantities of small chocolate might have good effects on blood pressure．However，it is important to remember that chocolate is also high in fat and calories．So eating much is not good for your heart．""Polyphenols are also found in fruits and vegetables，which can be taken in without the risks associated with overintake，"she added．
But the German study shows that the fat content does not cancel out the good effects-at least where small amounts are concerned．
32．How is Paragraph 2developed？B
A．By making comparisons．
B．By listing figures．
C．By analyzing causes．
D．By giving examples．
33．What health benefits does dark chocolate have？B
A．It lowers blood pressure heavily．
B．It may prevent heart attacks in a way．
C．It's useful for controlling one's weight．
D．It helps people strengthen their body．
34．What do Sara Stanner's words suggest？D
A．Eating chocolate has no health benefits．
B．Dark chocolate is not so nutritious as expected．
C．The findings of scientist's study are not scientific．
D．Eating fruits and vegetables may be a better choice．
35．What will be discussed in the following passage？A
A．Some details of the German study．
B．Benefits of fruits and vegetables．
C．Harm of overeating dark chocolate．
D．The proper amount of dark chocolate taken in．

6．Sharks have lived in the oceans for over 450million years．There are now about 360species of sharks，whose size，behavior，and other characteristics differ widely．
Sharks range in size from the 0.1meter long dwarf-dog shark to the 18-metre long whale shark-the world's biggest fish．The whale shark，like two other large shark species-the basking shark and the megamouth shark-are harmless to people because they feed on plants and small aquatic animals．
Sharks have extremely sensitive sense organs．Some sharks can detect the scent（气味） of decaying fish or blood even when it is diluted（稀释） to only one part per million parts of seawater．They can probably hear underwater sounds that originate as far as 3kilometers away and can tell the direction from which underwater sounds are coming．
Sharks are key predators（肉食动物） in the world's oceans，helping control the numbers of many other ocean predators．Without sharks，the oceans would be overcrowded with dead and dying fish．
Every year，we catch and kill over 100million sharks，mostly for food and for their fins．Dried shark fins are used to make shark fin soup，which makes a profit for the sellers．Other sharks are killed for sport and out of fear．Sharks are vulnerable to overfishing because it takes most species 10to 15years to begin reproducing and they produce only a few offspring．
Influenced by movies and popular novels，most people see sharks as people-eating monsters．This is far from the truth．Every year，a few types of sharks injure about 100people worldwide and kill about 25．Most attacks are by great white sharks，which often feed on sea lions and other marine mammals．They sometimes mistake human swimmers for their normal prey，especially if they are wearing black wet suits．
If you are a typical ocean-goer，your chances of being killed by an unprovoked （无缘无故的） attack by a shark are about 1in 100million．You are more likely to be killed by a pig than by a shark．
Sharks help save human lives．In addition to providing people with food，they are helping us learn how to fight cancer，bacteria and viruses．Sharks are very healthy and have aging processes similar to ours．Their highly effective immune system allows wounds to heal quickly without becoming infected，and their blood is being studied in connection with AIDS research．
Sharks are among the few animals in the world that almost never get cancer and eye cataracts．Understanding why can help us improve human health．Chemicals extracted from shark cartilage（软骨） have killed cancerous tumors in laboratory animals，and these chemicals may someday help prolong our life．
Sharks are needed in the world's ocean ecosystems．Although they don't need us，we need them．We are much more dangerous to sharks than they are to us．For every shark that bites a person，we kill one million sharks．
18．Which statement best expresses the main idea of the article？B
A．There are many different species of sharks，but only a few of them are dangerous to humans．
B．Sharks are important to the ocean ecosystem and they are a valuable resource for humans．
C．Although some sharks are dangerous to humans，they can help save human lives．
D．Sharks always eat small fishes and they are an essential part of the world's oceans．
19．Which question is NOT answered in the article？A
A．How long does a shark live？
B．How many people are killed by sharks each year？
C．Why are sharks important in medical research？
D．What do humans kill sharks for？
20．It can be inferred from the passage thatA．
A．Movies have given people the wrong impression of sharks．
B．Most sharks are dangerous to humans．
C．Sharks will attack anyone who is wearing black．
D．It is very likely that ocean-goers will be killed by a shark．

13．Next time you raise an eyebrow at the views of your partner，friend，sibling （兄弟姐妹） or colleague，remember they could be helping to make you smarter．
New research shows that intelligence is not fixed but can be boosted throughout adulthood by family members，bright mates and intellectually stretching （拉伸） careers．
The study challenges the commonly held belief that intelligence is static by the age of about 18．Current scientific consensus suggests that intelligence is controlled by genes，with environmental factors such as schooling and nutrition playing a partial role up to this age．After this point，IQ scores stabilize （稳定）．
But James Flynn，professor of political studies and psychology at the University of Otago in New Zealand，argues that people can"upgrade"their own intelligence throughout their lives．He believes intellectual stimulation （刺激） from others is crucial as the"brain seems to be rather like a muscle-the more you use it，the stronger it gets"．However，the opposite is also true-so people sharing a home or workplace with those who are intellectually challenged risk seeing their IQ levels fall as a result．
He found the"understanding quality"of a family changes the IQs of all members，especially children．It can"lift"or hold back，depending on the"gap between their brightness and that of their siblings and parents"．A bright ten-year-old with brothers and sisters of average intelligence will suffer a five to ten point IQ disadvantage，compared to a similar child with equally bright siblings．However，children with a low IQ could gain six to eight points by having brighter siblings and special educational treatment to help pull them up．
Professor Flynn also concluded that although genetics and early life experiences determine about 80percent of intelligence，the remaining 20percent is linked to lifestyle．This means that people can raise their IQ，or allow it to fall，by ten points or more．Therefore，the best way to boost IQ level is to mix with bright friends，find an intellectually challenging job and marry someone cleverer．
32．We can learn from the passage thatD．
A．as the age grows，you will become smarter
B．a 35-year-old man is surely smarter than himself at the age of 18
C．you will be smarter if you have a partner，a friend or a sibling
D．after 18，you still have the possibility to become smarter
33．The underlined word"static"in the 3^rd paragraph probably meansB．
A．unstable
B．fixed
C．varied
D．repeated
34．James Flynn holds the belief thatA．
A．intellectual stimulation from others makes the brain work better
B．people should avoid working with those intellectually challenged
C．one's IQ could be held back if he has bright brothers or sisters
D．the IQ of children is least influenced by the understanding level of a family
35．What's the best title for the passage？C
A．Genetics Determines Intelligence．
B．Watch Out for Intelligence Falling．
C．Bright Siblings Make You Smarter．
D．Brain Is Like Muscle．

11．Four Simple Keys to Transform Your Life
The Power of Choice．Every one of us makes countless choices every day．Every choice we make has an impact on our lives．Even insignificant choices can affect what we experience and how we feel．When hunger strikes，we can reach for a healthy，nutritious snack，or we can choose the sugar high of junk food．The more important the decision，the greater its effect．For instance，how do I act towards that person who treated me badly？Do I generally choose to be passive，or do I actively set clear intentions and create what I want in my life？Every choice we make，however big or small，affects us in some way．
How Do You Make Choices？If you are interested in living a richer，fuller life，there is a foundation upon which you can base all of your decisions which can make life better not only for you，but also for those around you．This foundation is to choose based on what's best for all．Imagine a world where every parent，spouse（配偶），friend，teacher，businessperson，and politician truly did their best to choose what's best for all involved in every decision they made．We would certainly live in a more caring，supportive world．
It's the Intention．"But how do I know what is really best？"you might ask．The answer is simple．It doesn't matter．What matters is not the choice you make，but rather the intention behind your choice．What matters is that whatever decision you make，you are clear in your intention of choosing based on what's best for all．If it later turns out that you made what appears to have been a bad choice，there's no need for guilt．Knowing that you did your best to choose with a sincere desire for what's best for all，your conscience stays clear and open．This then allows you to more easily learn from your mistakes，and to live with a clear heart and mind．
What's Best for Me，Too!Choosing what's best does not mean you have to always sacrifice yourself for others．An overly（过度的） exhausted mother can lose her temper easily．Some time off for this mother might seem selfish，yet in the long run，it can help her to be a better mother to her children．So as we move through each day of our lives，let us remember to include ourselves as we do our best to choose what's best for all．
29．Which of the following is FALSE？A
A．Whenever hunger strikes，we will reach for a junk snack
B．Every choice，however big or small，has an influence on us．
C．Even small choices affect how we feel．．
D． We make choices every day．
30．How should we make choices？D
A．To be interested in a richer，fuller life．
B．To make life better for ourselves．
C．To imagine a world where everyone did their best．
D．To choose based on what's best for all．
31．Why does the author say，"What matters is not the choice you make，but rather the intention behind your choice"？C
A．Because the choice you make is not important．
B．Because you may have made a bad choice．
C．Because this allows you to stay clear and improve．
D． Because there is no need for guilt．
32．How to choose what is best for us？B
A．We need to devote all our life to others．
B．We need to put away some time for ourselves．
C．We need to sacrifice ourselves for others．
D．We need to be selfless every minute．
