【解析】M: Hello, everyone. My topic today is about the power of a smile. There are a number of sayings about the power of a smile — “Peace begins with a smile.” “A smile means ‘Welcome’ everywhere.” “Life is short, but a smile only takes a second.” All good advice, but it may not be as simple as that. According to new research, if you want to make a good impression when you meet people, it’s not just that you smile; it’s how you smile. The study was carried out by the GO group, a business support organization in Scotland, in the UK. They looked at people’s responses to different smiles. They found that the responses differ greatly. Through this study, they say people should avoid three types of smiles. The first is the “Top Fan” — very wide, all teeth showing… possible evidence that you can have too much of a good thing. Then there is the “Big Freeze” — a fixed smile that looks practiced and insincere. Finally comes “The Robot” — a small, thin smile lacking in warmth. The group also warns against smiling too quickly, saying it can make you look false. The best smile, they say, is slower… and flows naturally across the whole face.

1The study was carried out by the GO group, a business support organization in Scotland, in the UK.

【题目】My 17-year-old daughter went off tocollege and having her away from home brought back memories of watching PeterPan when she was little.

As she turns offthe last of the night light, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says,“Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how muchshe loves her children.
It has been several weeks since we tookour daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting well after a short period of homesickness.For us, though, it’s another story.

【题目】Scientists in Britain have managed to teach bumblebees(大黄蜂) to pull strings to get to food and then pass on what they have learned to others in their colony(群体)showing a high level of intelligence despite their tiny brains.

Researchers at Queen Mary University of London said the experiments, often used to test the intelligence of apes (猿) and birds, showed for the first time that some insects are up to the task, and can also pass skills on through several generations.

The findings add to the evidence suggesting the ability for “culture spread” the ability to learn and pass on knowledge and skills — may not be exclusive to humans.

In the research, published in the journal PLOS Biology on Tuesday, the scientists were able to train 23 out of a group of 40 bees to pull strings with their legs and feet.

The strings were attached to discs — or artificial “flowers” — containing food at their center but placed under a transparent screen. The bees, spotting the food beneath the screen, learned to pull the “flowers” out by pulling the string with their legs and feet to be able to get to it.

From another group of bees given the chance to solve the task without any training, only two of 110 were successful.

Another group of bees was then allowed to observe the trained bees pulling the strings, and 60 percent of them successfully learned the skill. Finally, trained bees were put in colonies, and the scientists found the technique spread successfully to a majority of the colony’s worker bees.

Lars Chittka, a Queen Mary University professor who guided the project, said the team is interested in figuring out the brain processes behind the bees’ learning and teaching skills.

1What does the underlined word “exclusive” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Ordinary. B. Unique. C. Beneficial. D. Widespread.

2What did the researchers find about bees?

A. Bees learn best in insects.

B. Bees are as clever as birds.

C. Bees are born good learners.

D. Bees can be trained to learn skills.

3What may the research team focus on next?

A. What else bees can do. B. Where bees learn skills.

C. How bees teach others. D. How bees’ brain work.

4What may be the best title for the text?

A. Small bees, great abilities B. Bees can learn and teach

C. Bees are smarter D. Let bees learn

【题目】More than nine out of ten young people expose themselves to the blue light from smartphones before bed, causing problems with sleep. A new survey also shows more than 28 million people in the UK regularly get no more than seven hours sleep a night. Prof Richard Wiseman, who commissioned the YouGov poll described the findings as “extremely worrying”. Of the 2,149 adults questioned, 78% said they used electronic devices before going to bed. This rose to 91% among the 18 to 24-year-olds questioned in the survey.

Getting less than seven hours sleep a night is below the recommended guidelines, and is associated with a range of problems, including an increased risk of weight gain, heart attacks, diabetes and cancer. “The blue light from these devices suppresses(压制) the production of the sleep—inducing hormone melatonin, so it’s important to avoid them before bedtime,” said Prof Richard Wiseman, from the University of Hertfordshire.

Everyone needs different amounts of sleep, but adults are generally thought to require a minimum of seven to eight hours a night. Teenagers are recommended to get more, about nine hours. The proportion(比例) of people thought to be getting too little sleep has risen by a fifth since a “bedroom poll” conducted last year by the National Sleep Foundation.

Last week revealed opticians were warning that the overuse of smartphones may be increasing people’s risk of eye damage. Optician Andy Hepworth said, “Blue violet light is potentially harmful to the back of your eyes.” So over a long period of time it can damage your eyes. When you’re looking at a smartphone, the light peaking out of that is blue violet. The news came as a survey of 2,000 people suggests under-25s check their smartphones 32 times a day.

1The purpose of the passage is to ________.

A. stress that people shouldn’t use smartphones

B. remind people of enough sleep

C. ask people not to sleep too much

D. tell people not to use smartphones before bed

2Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. According to a new survey, more than 28 million people in the UK get more than seven hours sleep a night

B. More than 90% of young people expose themselves to the blue light from smartphones before bed.

C. Of the 2,149 adults questioned , 91% said they used electronic devices before going to bed.

D. The news came as a survey of 2,000 people suggests under-25s check their smartphones 30 times a day.

3According to what Andy Heoworth said , the overuse of smartphones may be increasing people’s risk of _________.

A. weight gain
