1、GypsiesWhen school was out, I hurried to find my sister ａｎｄ　get out of the schoolyard before seeing anybody in my class. But Barbara ａｎｄ　her friends had beaten us to the playground entrance ａｎｄ　they seemed to be waiting fｏｒus. Barbara said, "So now you\'re in the A class. " She sounded impressed. "What\'s the A class?" I asked. Everybody made superiｏｒyet faintly envious giggling sounds. "Well, why did you think the teacher moved you to the front of the room, dopey? Didn\'t you know you were in the C class before, way in the back of the room?" Of course I hadn\'t known. The Wenatchee fifth grade was bigger than my whole school which had been in North Dakota, ａｎｄ　the idea of subdivisions within a grade had never occurred to me. The subdividing fｏｒthe first marking period had been done before I came to the school, ａｎｄ　1 had never, in the six weeks I\'d been there, talked to anyone long enough to find out about the A, B, ａｎｄ　C classes.I still could not understａｎｄ　why that had made such a difference to Barbara ａｎｄ　her friends. I didn\'t yet know that it was shameful ａｎｄ　dirty to be a transient laborer ａｎｄ　ridiculous to be from North Dakota. I thought living in a tent was more fun than living in a house.I didn\'t know that we were gypsies, really (how that thought would have excited me then!), ａｎｄ　that we were regarded with the suspicion felt by those who plant toward those who do not plant. It didn\'t occur to me that we were all looked upon as one more of the untrustworthy natural phenomena, drifting here ａｎｄ　there like mists ｏｒwinds. I didn\'t know that I was the only child who had camped on the Baumann\'s lａｎｄ　ever to get out of the C class. I didn\'t know that school administrators ａｎｄ　civic leaders held conferences to talk about the problem of transient laborers.I only knew that fｏｒtwo happy days I walked to school with Barbara ａｎｄ　her friends, played hopscotch ａｎｄ　jumped rope with them at class intervals, ａｎｄ　was even invited into the house fｏｒsome ginger ale --－－a strange drink I had never tasted before.The tone of this passage as a whole is ____.【单选题】

A.reflective

B.enthusiastic

C.impersonal

D.defensive

正确答案:A

答案解析:reflective在此意为： 回顾的。在这个问题中tone： 语气、心情。纵观全文，我们可以看出，叙述者是在回忆她童年时发生的一件事（第一、二、三、四段）及这件事的发生所给她带来的感受（第四、五段）。impersonal：不涉及个人情感的、客观的；defensive：辩护的、申辩的。这里并非是作者因受到指责而为自己辩护，本文主要谈的是人与人之间的歧视给作者当时幼小心灵带来的困惑。

2、 Happiness If your sense of well-being fluctuates with stock market, you might be comforted to know that money can\'t buy you happiness anyway. In one American study conducted in 1993, level of income was shown to have an inverse relation to happiness: Theｇｒｏｕｐwhose income had declined was happier overall than theｇｒｏｕｐwhose income had increased. A soon-to-be published review of the hundreds of studies on this subject supports the 1993 findings. In developed countries, the correlation between income ａｎｄ　happiness is close to zero ａｎｄ　sometimes negative. With a correlation between level of income ａｎｄ　happiness somewhere between 0.12 ａｎｄ　0.18, the United States is near the bottom of the list; that factors other than income are overwhelmingly more important in explaining happiness. Also, as our material wealth increases, the gap between income ａｎｄ　satisfaction with life seems to be widening. Predictably, money has its most positive effect on the poor, but once a person has achieved a minimal standard of living level of income has almost nothing to do with happiness. Close relationship, rather than money, is the key to happiness. Indeed, the number of one\'s personal friends is a much better indicatｏｒof overall satisfaction with life than personal wealth. One stands a better chance of achieving a satisfying life by spending time with friends ａｎｄ　family than by striving fｏｒhigher income. Incidentally, in the US, as people become richer, the probability of divorce increases. Our need fｏｒcompanionship is partly biological. All primates respond with pleasure to demonstrations of affection ａｎｄ　with pain to loss of companionship. Isolated monkeys will sacrifice food just fｏｒthe glimpses of another monkey. By ignoring our biologically programmed need fｏｒeach other, we risk physical ａｎｄ　mental distress. A recent cross-national study of mental depression in the US found that in advanced countries, there is a rising tide of majｏｒdepression. Teenage suicides have increased in recent decades in almost all advanced countries. Moreover, in the US since World War Ⅱ, there has been an actual decline in the proportion of people who report themselves to be "very unhappy. " You can easily test the claim that companionship exceeds wealth as a source of happiness. Ask yourself which has a greater influence on your satisfaction with life: your income ｏｒthe affection of your intimate companions ａｎｄ　the well-being of your children? Conversely, which would make you more depressed: a reduction in salary ｏｒa divorce ａｎｄ　isolation from your friends? Capitalism succeeds in creating material riches, but it is less successful in building companionable societies ａｎｄ　protecting family integrity. But developing countries still have much work to do in pursuing material wealth, where a rise in productivity still greatly increases happiness. Fｏｒpoorer countries, the time is not yet ripe fｏｒa shift in priorities from wealth accumulation to companionship. Can we afford to believe that the pursuit of material gain will lead to self-fulfillment? We should continue to enjoy our wealth in good company, ｏｒelse we may find that it is not satisfying. According to the author, which of the following is most likely to share our biological need fｏｒcompanionship besides the monkey?【单选题】

A. A swallow.

B.A pig.

C.An ape.

D.A dog.

正确答案:C

答案解析:根据常识来看，因为猿猴（C与猴子最接近，所以推测C最可能是答案。结合段首句的内容来看，这个句子是用作具体的例子例证“我们对友谊的需要有部分原因是出于动物的天性。”判断该句前句中提到的灵长目（猴子也属于灵长目）也应该是用来例证的，因此判断灵长目都应该具有对友谊的生理需要，因此判断C（猿猴）是答案。

4、Human Heart Can Make New CellsSolving a longstanding (为时甚久的) mystery, scientists have found that the human heart continues to generate new cardiac(心脏的 ) cells throughout the life span, although the rate of new cell production slows with age.The finding, published in the April 3 issue of Science, could open a new path fｏｒthe treatment of heart diseases such as heart failure ａｎｄ　heart attack, experts say."We find that the beating cells in the heart, cardiomyocytes (心肌细胞), are renewed," said lead researcher Dr. Jonas Frisen, a professｏｒof stem cell research at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. "It has previously not been known whether we were limited to the cardiomyocytes we are born with ｏｒif they could be renewed," he said.The process of renewing these cells changes over time, Frisen added. In a 20 - year - old, about I percent of cardiomyocytes are exchanged each year, but the turnover (更替) rate decreases with age to only 0.45 percent by age 75."If we can understａｎｄ　how the generation of new cardiomyocytes is regulated, it may be potentially possible to develop pharmaceuticals (药物) that promote this process to stimulate regeneration after, fｏｒexample, a heart attack," Frisen said.That could lead to treatment that helps restore damaged hearts."A lot of people suffer from chronic heart failure," noted co - authｏｒDr. Ratan Bhardwaj, also from the Karolinska Institute. "Chronic heart failure arises from heart cells dying," he said.With this finding, scientists are "opening the doｏｒto potential therapies (疗法) to having ourselves heal ourselves." Bhardwaj said. "Maybe one could devise a pharmaceutical agent that would make heart cells make new ａｎｄ　more cells to overcome the problem they are facing. "But barriers remain. According to Bhardwaj, scientists do not yet know how to increase heart cell production to a rate that would replace cells faster than they are dying off, especially in older patients with heart failure. In addition, the number of new cells the heart produces was estimated using healthy hearts-whether the rate of cell turnover in diseased hearts is the same remains unknown.The finding could prove to be useful to ______.【单选题】

A.the analysis of cardiac cells

B.the prevention of chronic diseases

C.the treatment of heart diseases

D.the study of longstanding mysteries

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题有一定难度，需要吃透原文句意。带着题干信息词回文章定位，答案依据在文章第二段，谈到专家称这项发现会为例如心脏衰竭、心脏病等的治疗开辟新道路，回来看选项，C项和原文句意相符，是答案。

5、Early childhood educationIn a time of low academic achievement by children in the United States, many Americans are turning to Japan, a country of high academic achievement ａｎｄ　economic success, fｏｒpossible answers. However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find in most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction. In one investigation, 300 Japanese ａｎｄ　210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, ａｎｄ　parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education. Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents listed "to give children a good start academically" as one of their top three reasons fｏｒa society to have preschools. In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices. To prepare children fｏｒsuccessful careers in first grade ａｎｄ　beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading, writing, ａｎｄ　mathematics, but rather skills such as persistence, concentration, ａｎｄ　the ability to function as a member of a group. The vast majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.In the recent comparison of Japanese ａｎｄ　American preschool education, 91 percent of Japanese respondents chose providing children with aｇｒｏｕｐexperience as one of their top three reasons fｏｒa society to have preschools. Sixty-two percent of the more individually oriented (强调个性发展的) Americans listedｇｒｏｕｐexperience as one of their top three choices. An emphasis on the importance of theｇｒｏｕｐseen in Japanese early childhood education continues into elementary school education.Like in America, there is diversity in Japanese early childhood education. Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training ｏｒpotential development. In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary ａｎｄ　secondary schools. Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children\'s chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools ａｎｄ　universities. Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out fｏｒthe heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university based kindergartens?【单选题】

A.They can do better in their future studies.

B.They can accumulate moreｇｒｏｕｐexperience there.

C.They can be individually oriented when they grow up.

D.They can have better chances of getting a first-rate education.

正确答案:D

答案解析:此题可以从全文的最后一段的第四句话得出答案。其中top-rated与first-rate意思相同。
