14.It was not until I visited Venice _________ it really worthy of the reputation of"the water world".(  )
A.that I foundB.have I foundC.when I did findD.did I find

分析 直到我参观了威尼斯我才发现它真的值"水上城市"这个称号.

解答 答案是A.考查强调句,本句考查not until的强调句,强调的结构是It is/was not until+时间+that+句子的剩余部分,所以答案选A.

点评 强调句是英语中的一个基本句型,也是考试的一个语法内容,在英文中,句子的主语、宾语、状语都可以以一种固定的句式表示对它的强调.It is/was+被强调部分+that+句子的剩余部分,掌握固定结构是做好强调句的关键.

2.Rene Descartes'explanation of pain has long been acknowledged in medicine.He proposed that pain is a purely physical phenomenon-that tissue injury makes specific nerves send a signal to the brain,causing the mind to notice pain.The phenomenon,he said,is like pulling on a rope to ring a bell in the brain.It is hard to overstate how deeply fixed this account has become.In medicine,doctors see pain in Descartes'terms-as a physical process,a sing of tissue injury.
The limitations of this explanation,however,have been apparent for some time,since people with obvious injuries sometimes report feeling no pain at all.Later,researchers proposed that Descartes'model be replaced with what they called the gate control theory of pain.They argued that before pain signals reach the brain,they must first go through a gating mechanism in the spinal cord(脊髓).In some cases,this imaginary gate could simply step gain signals from getting to the brain.
Their most amazing suggestion was that what controlled the gate was not just signals from sensory nerves but also emotions and other"output"from the brain.They were saying that pulling on the rope need not make the bell ring.The bell itself-the mind-could stop it.This theory led to a great deal of research into how such factors as mood,gender,and beliefs influence the experience of pain.In a British study,for example,researchers measured pain threshold and tolerance levels in 53 ballet dancers and 53 university students by using a common measurement:after immersing your hand in body-temperature water for two mintues to establish a baseline condition,you put your hand in a bowl of ice water and start a clock running.You mark the time when it begins to hurt:that is your pain threshold.Then you mark the time when it hurts too much to keep your hand in the water:that is your pain tolerance.The test is always stopped at 120 seconds,to prevent injury.
The results were striking.On average female students reported pain at 16 seconds and pulled their hands out of the ice water at 37 seconds.Female dancers were almost three times as long on both counts.Men in both groups had a higher threshold and tolerance for pain,but the difference between mals dancers and mals nondancers was nearly as large.What explains that difference?Probably it has something to do with the psychology of ballet dancers-a group known for self-discipline,physical fitness,and competitiveness,as well as by a high rate of chronic(慢性)injury.Their driven personalities and competitive culture evidently accustom them to pain.Other studies along these lines have shown that outgoing people have greater pain tolerance and that,with training,one can reduce one's sensitivity to pain.
There is also striking evidence that very simple kinds of mental suggestion can have powerful effects on pain.In one study of 500 patients undergoing dental procedures,those who were given a placebo injection and promised that it would relieve their pain had the least discomfort-not only less than the patients who got a placebo and were told nothing but also less than the patients who got actual drug without any promise that it would work.
Today it is abundantly evident that the brain is actively involved in the experience of pain and is no more bell on a string.Today every medical textbook teaches the gate control theory as fact.There's a problem with it,though.It explains people who have injuries but feel no pain,but it doesn't explain the reverse,which is far more common-the millions of people who experience chronic pain,such as back pain,with no signs of injury whatsoever.So where does the pain come from?The rope and clapper are gone,but the bell is still ringing.

6.Once a rich man was near death.He was very upset because he had worked so hard for his money (16)that he hoped he could take it with him to heaven.So he prayed to God he might be able to take some money with him.
(17)An angel heard his pray and appeared."Sorry,(18)but you can't take your wealth with you."The man begged the angel to speak to God to seeif/whether(19)if/whether he might break the rules.The angel reappeared and said that God could allow him to take one suitcase.Excitedly,the man gathered his suitcase and filled it (20)withpure gold bars.

St.Peter opened the suitcase to inspect the things(24)that/which the man found too precious to leave behind and exclaimed (感叹),"You brought pavement?As you can see,the great street of the city of heaven(25)is made(make) of pure gold!"
