3.My grandfather is a(61)retired (retire) worker.On summer evenings,he would gather us outside the house to enjoy the cool air,(62)sharing (share) his experiences before liberation.
At the age of fourteen,my grandfather worked as a child laborer in a coal mine.One day,he and his two workmates were working in the tunnel(63)when an unfortunate thing happened.A part of the tunnel fell down and they were shut in.They had no food(64)toeat (eat) in the tunnel.When they were hungry,they only drank some water.Because (65)it was very cold there,they just hug one another in order to keep warm.They could hardly speak or move as a consequence of physical(66)weakness (weak) and thought they would die.
After(67)what seemed a long time,the tunnel was dug through and they(68)wererescued (rescue).They had been trapped there for fourteen days!My grandfather said they weren't let out at once.If so,they(69)would havedied (die).They were kept at the entrance to the tunnel where it was very dim and were fed on some thin porridge.After a day or two,they had recovered a bit and were(70)eventually (eventual) helped out.

分析 我的祖父是一位退休的工人,夏天的傍晚,他会把我们聚集在房子外面享受凉爽的空气,分享他解放前的经历.十四岁时,我的祖父在一个煤矿上当童工.一天,他和他的两名工友正在隧道里工作,这时,发生了一件不幸的事.隧道的一部分塌陷了,他们被关在了里面.在隧道里他们没有吃的东西,当他们饿了的时候,他们只能喝些水.因为里面很冷,为了能暖和起来,他们只能互相抱在一起.由于身体虚弱,他们几乎说不话,也动不了,并以为他们可能会死.好像过了很长时间,隧道被挖通了,他们才被救了出来.他们在那里被困十四天了!我的祖父说他们没有被立刻放出来,如果是那样的话,他们就会死的.他们被关在了隧道的入口,那里面非常暗,吃了一些稀饭.一两天后,等他们的体力有所恢复了,才最终被解救出来.

解答 61.retired       考查由过去分词转化来的形容词     此处用在"a/an+形容词+名词"的结构中,表示被动与完成的动作;意为:一位退休工人;故填retired
62.sharing       考查现在分词    根据句意可知,此处在句中作伴随状语,动词share与其逻辑主语he构成主谓关系;意为:他会把我们聚集在房子外享受凉爽的空气,分享他解放前的经历;故填sharing
63.when      考查连词      本句的意思是:一天,他和他的两名工友正在隧道里工作,这时,发生了一件不幸的事;故填when"这时;突然"
64.to eat       考查动词不定式      此处在句中作后置定语修饰名词food,意为:吃的食物;故填to eat
65.it            考查it的用法   it作无人称代词的主语,指天气;意为:因为那里很冷;故填it
66.weakness     考查名词的用法   此处用在形容词之后,应使用名词形式,意为:身体的虚弱;故填weakness
67.what     考查连接代词    此处用在介词After之后,引导宾语从句;由于从句中缺少主语,意为:…的(时间);故用连接代词what
68.were rescued     考查被动语态   本句的意思是:隧道被挖通了,他们被救了出来;动词rescue与主语they构成被动关系,由于and之前使用了一般过去;故此处用一般过去时态的被动语态were rescued    
69.would have died     考查虚拟语气    根据句意可知,本句是虚拟条件句;由于主句表达的是与过去事实相反的假设,故用would have died     
70.eventually     考查副词的用法    此处用来修饰动词短语helped out,故用副词eventually

点评 本题主要考查了各种语法在短文中的具体运用.做本题时,需要在正确理解短文的前提下,逐句分析句意以及所考查到的语法现象;因此在平时的学习中,应熟练掌握各种语法知识,其中包括词法,句法,各种时态语态以及虚拟语气等.

8.Cowboy or spaceman?A dilemma for a children's party,perhaps.But also a question for economists,argued Kenneth Boulding,a British economist,in an essay published in 1966.We have run our economies,he warned,like cowboys on the open grassland:taking and using the world's resources,confident that more lies over the horizon.But the Earth is less a grassland than a spaceship-a closed system,alone in space,carrying limited supplies.We need,said Boulding,an economics that takes seriously the idea of environmental limits.In the half century since his essay,a new movement has responded to his challenge."Ecological economists",as they call themselves,want to revolutionise its aims and assumptions.What do they say-and will their ideas achieve lift-off?
To its advocators,ecological economics is neither ecology nor economics,but a mix of both.Their starting point is to recognise that the human economy is part of the natural world.Our environment,they note,is both a source of resources and a sink for wastes.But it is ignored in conventional textbooks,where neat diagrams trace the flows between firms,households and the government as though nature did not exist.That is a mistake,say ecological economists.
There are two ways our economies can grow,ecological economists point out:through technological change,or through more intensive use of resources.Only the former,they say,is worth having.They are suspicious of GDP,a crude measure which does not take account of resource exhaustion,unpaid work,and countless other factors.In its place they advocate more holistic(全面的) approaches,such as the Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI),a composite index(复合指标) that includes things like the cost of pollution,deforestation and car accidents.While GDP has kept growing,global GPI per person peaked in 1978:by destroying our environment we are making ourselves poorer,not richer.The solution,says Herman Daly,a former World Bank economist and eco-guru,is a"steady-state"economy,where the use of materials and energy is held constant.
Mainstream economists are unimpressed.The GPI,they point out,is a subjective measure.And talk of limits to growth has had a bad press since the days of Thomas Malthus,a gloomy 18th century cleric who predicted,wrongly,that overpopulation would lead to famine.Human beings find solutions to some of the most annoying problems.But ecological economists warn against self-satisfaction.In 2009 a paper in Nature,a scientific journal,argued that human activity is already overstepping safe planetary boundaries on issues such as biodiversity(生物多样性) and climate change.That suggests that ecological economists are at least asking some important questions,even if their answers turn out to be wrong.
 
73.Why does Boulding compare the way economy is run with cowboy and spaceship?D
A.To advocate the importance of space programs.
B.To applaud the appearance of ecological economists.
C.To arouse people's interest in cowboys'adventures on grassland.
D.To awaken people to the need of sustainable development of economy.
74.What does the underlined word"challenge"in paragraph 1 refer to?B
A.Sending a cowboy into space through a spaceship.
B.Establishing an economics taking environmental limits into account.
C.Revolutionizing the ecological economists'aims and assumptions.
D.Enabling ecological economists to make their ideas achieve lift-offs.
75.Ecological economists will disagree thatA.
A.economies are worth growing through intensive use of resources
B.economics should attach importance to the idea of environmental limits
C.ecological economics is neither ecology nor economics
D.the human economy is part of the natural world
76.According to the passage,which of the following about GPI is true?C
A.It keeps growing although the peak appeared in the year 1978.
B.Mainstream economists regard it as a holistic and objective approach.
C.Ecological economists believe it is a better indicator of economy than GDP.
D.It fails to take the factors such as deforestation and car accidents into consideration.
77.We can infer from the last paragraph that the mainstream economists'attitude toward ecological economics isA.
A.doubtful        B.sensitive          C.optimistic        D.over-concerned.

19.Once upon a time,staying a healthy weight was easy.To lose weight you simply had to practise the reverse of home economics--spend more than you earned.Unfortunately for many,but perhaps not surprisingly,it turns out that people are rather more complicated than bank accounts.
To stay a healthy weight,you need a hormone(荷尔蒙)called lepton to work properly.It sends"I'm full"messages from the fat cells up to the brain,where they go,among other places,to the same pleasure centers that respond to drugs like cocaine.Fat people produce plenty of lepton,but the brain doesn.t seem to respond to it properly.Last year researchers at the Oregon Research Institute scanned the brains of overweight people and found their reward circuit(线路) were underactive.They were eating more to try to get the enjoyment they were missing.
There's a lot of evidence for the fact that most,if not all,of us have a set point around which our weight can vary by about seven to nine kilos,but anything beyond that is a real struggle.Making changes is hard,particularly if your body is working against you.So why not reject the traditional approaches and try some new method,based on the latest research,that work with your body rather than against it.
Several years ago researchers at the National Institute on Aging in Baltimore reported that when they gave rats very little food one day and allowed them to eat plenty the next,they showed virtually all the benefits of a permanent calorie restriction diet.The same goes for humans,according to Dr.James Johnson.
How does it work?Besides forcing the body to burn fat,it may also cause hormonal changes.Most people say that the diet takes a bit of getting used to,but is not as grinding as trying to cut back on an everyday basis.
Older dieters may remember something called brown fat.Unlike the undesirable white stuff; this was a dieter's dream.Instead of storing excess energy as fat,brown-fat tissue burned it off to keep you warm-at least in mice.Brown fat fell out of favor because researchers couldn't find much in humans but now,thanks to the New England journal of Medicine,it's back in fashion.The idea is to expose people to cold temperatures.They then make more brown fat and their weight drops.

74.According to the findings of the Oregon Research Institute,A
A.Overweight people get less pleasure from eating the same amount.
B.Overweight people enjoy eating more than the others do
C.People will become overweight if they eat more than they need
D.People are more likely to be overweight if they produce less leptin
75.The method used by the National Institute On Aging can be summarized as"C"
A.No diet at all                       B.Diet on a daily basis
C.Diet every other day                 D.Diet permanently
76.The word"grinding"in the paragraph 5is closest in meaning toD
A.Effective     B.Realistic       C.Unreliable       D.Miserable
77.What is the passage mainly about?B
A.Comparing the various ways of cutting calories
B.Recommending new methods of losing weight
C.Pointing out the misconceptions of losing weight
D.Clarifying the common myth about weight loss.

20.Spending hours playing violent video games prevents teenagers from their moral growth,a study has found.It is thought that regular touch to violence and lack of contact with the outside world makes it harder for them to tell right from wrong.They also struggle to trust other people,and see the world from their viewpoints.
    Researchers from Brock University in Ontario found that those who spend more than three hours each day in front of the screen are particularly unlikely to have developed the ability to empathise(同情).
    The Canadian researchers surveyed 109 boys and girls,aged 13 and 14,about whether they played video games,which games they liked,and how long they spent playing them.Their findings found that 88 percent of teens said they played games,and more than half admitted to playing games everyday.Violent games were among the most popular.
    The teenagers also filled in a questionnaire designed to measure their moral development.For example,they were asked how important it is to save the life of a friend.
    Previous studies have suggested that a person's moral judgement goes through four phases as they grow from children and enter adulthood.By the age of 13 or 14,scientists claim young people should be entering the third stage,and be able to empathise with others and take their viewpoints into account.The research found that this stage appeared to be delayed in teenagers who regularly played violent video games.
    It is also thought that teenagers who play games regularly did not spend enough time in the real world to learn to take other's thoughts into consideration.Researcher Mirjana Bajovic said:"The present results indicate that some teenagers;who spent three or more hours a day playing violent video games,are deprived of such opportnnities."Writing in the journal Educational Media International.the researchers added:"Touch to violence in video games may influence the development of moral reasoning because violence is not only presented as acceptable but is also justified and rewarded."
    They concluded that rather than trying to enforce an‘unrealistic'ban on the games,parents and teachers should encourage teenagers to do charity work and take up after-school activities.

61.What would be the result of playing violent video games?D
A.Making teens easy to get along with.
B.Helping teens make more good friends.
C.Causing teens easier to tell right from wrong.
D.Getting teens hard to take others into consideration.
62.Why did the Canadian researchers carry out the studies?B
A.To discuss how to save the life of a friend.
B.To measure teenagers'moral development.
C.To enrich teenagers'awareness of social life.
D.To develop teenagers'ability to communicate.
63.What call we know from the words of Mirjana Bajovic?A
A.Vio1ent games cost teens social experiences in real life.
B.Playing games regularly will improve teens'intelligence.
C.Playing games inspires teens to develop fast.
D.Playing games makes teens help others.
64.What can be inferred from the text?D
A.Parents and teachers should let teens go online.
B.Playing video games should be forbidden among teens.
C.Game designers should be kindly treated and rewarded.
D.Teens should be encouraged to do more meaningful things.
65.Which of the following would be the best title of the text?A
A.Violent video games affect teenagers'moral development
B.Vio1ent video games delay teenagers'physical growth
C.Violent video games should be forbidden among teenagers
D.Violent video games reduce teenagers'chance in the real world.
