【题目】阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

When you see red lanterns（灯笼） or red envelopes(红包), do you know the reason【1】the color red is so popular in China, especially on the Chinese New Year? It all began with the Nian, a terrible animal 【2】would frighten people on the New Year by 【3】 (eat) crops, livestock(家畜) and even children. But soon【4】 (village) learned that Nian was afraid of three things: fire, noise, and the color red.

So it was beaten and since then the color red【5】 (consider) to bring good luck and good fortune to all.

Usually red lanterns are hung outside the doors【6】 (drive) out bad luck, and red cut-out papers are used as decorations to hang on the walls. If you live near a Chinese neighborhood(社区) you should be able to buy these things, but if not, go online and order some. Some people even can make wonderful cut-outs 【7】(they).

Still the most 【8】(tradition) way to celebrate the Chinese New Year is to hand out red envelopes filled 【9】money. The red envelopes 【10】(give) to children are expected to drive out bad spirits.

【答案】

【1】why

【2】which/that

【3】eating

【4】villagers

【5】has been considered

【6】to drive

【7】themselves

【8】traditional

【9】with

【10】given

【解析】

本文是说明文，介绍了红色在庆祝中国新年时很受欢迎的原因。

【1】考查定语从句的关系词。句意：当你看到红灯笼或红包时，你知道为什么红色在中国很受欢迎，尤其是在中国新年时吗? 分析句子结构，空后是定语从句，修饰先行词the reason，所填关系词在从句中作原因状语，因此用why引导定语从句。故填why。

【2】考查定语从句的关系词。句意：这一切开始于年。年是一种可怕的动物，在新年时吃庄稼、牲畜，甚至是孩子，使人们害怕。分析句子结构，空后是定语从句，修饰先行词a terrible animal，所填关系词在从句中作主语，指物，因此用which/that引导定语从句。故填which/that。

【3】考查非谓语动词。句意：这一切开始于年。年是一种可怕的动物，在新年时吃庄稼、牲畜，甚至是孩子，使人们害怕。在介词by后接动名词作宾语。故填eating。

【4】考查可数名词的单复数。句意：但很快，村民们了解到年兽害怕三样东西：火、噪音和红色。分析句子结构，所填词在句子中作主语，应该是名词；根据句意，“村民”是复数意义，应用名词复数，故填villagers。

【5】考查时态和语态。句意：这样它被打败了。从那时起，红色被认为能给所有人带来好运。根据时间状语since then，句子应该用现在完成时；句子主语the color red和consider之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用现在完成时的被动语态have been done；主语the color red是单数，谓语动词应用单数形式。故填has been considered。

【6】考查非谓语动词。句意：通常红色的灯笼挂在门外以驱走坏运气，红色剪纸被用作装饰挂在墙上。根据句意，此处是不定式作目的状语，意思为“为了驱走坏运气”。故填to drive。

【7】考查代词。句意：有些人甚至自己也能做出很棒的剪纸。句子主语是Some people，因此相应地用反身代词themselves，意思为“他们自己”。故填themselves。

【8】考查形容词。句意：最传统的庆祝中国新年的方式仍然是发装满了钱的红包。修饰名词way，应该用形容词形式。故填traditional。

【9】考查固定短语。句意：最传统的庆祝中国新年的方式仍然是发装满了钱的红包。短语be filled with“充满，装满”。故填with。

【10】考查非谓语动词。句意：人们期望给孩子们的红包可以驱走邪恶的鬼神。the red envelopes 和give之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用过去分词作后置定语。故填given。

练习册系列答案

At the end of April, we held the traditional activity called “The Last Ringing”, which lasted for two days. Every class had a theme and graduates wore different costumes. We prepared tasty desserts and food to sell. We broke into one classroom after another asking students to give us money, which might seem insane but it is part of the tradition.

By the end of May, we had already finished all of the final exams and we started preparing for the graduation ceremony. It was held in the conference hall (会场) in our school at five o’clock in the afternoon. Parents could come, too. We got our graduation certificate in a gray folder (文件夹) from our class teacher, and we also shook hands with the headmaster. When I received my certificate, I almost teared up-I didn’t want to say goodbye to them or to the school.

That wasn’t the last celebration though. After four days, our class invited all of our teachers to come to a farewell dinner at an Italian restaurant. We used all of the money we collected from the prom and “The Last Ringing” to order pizzas and champagne. We all talked and ate together.

A year ago, we were all complaining and hoping that high school would end. But I felt sad when the time finally came and it was over. We have officially left our school. I keep telling myself that everything has an ending. This journey was amazing. Although it has come to an end, I will always keep the memories I made close to my heart. I won’t ever forget them.

【题目】 How can you change negative(消极的) thoughts? Many people suggest changing your attitude by thinking of something bright and happy.

However, scientists from Queen’s University in Canada said that there might be another way: by walking like a happy person.

“It is not surprising that our mood and the way we feel affects how we walk, but we want to see whether the way we move also affects how we feel,” explained Nikolaus Troje, the lead scientist, to The Independent.

Scientists believed that the way we remember emotional messages is affected by our mood. Those who suffer from depression (抑郁) remember negative information far more easily than active messages, especially when the information is about them.

In order to prove this, Troje and his team used cameras to observe 47 people walking on the treadmill (跑步机). Half of the people were encouraged to mimic (模仿) a depressive walking style, while the other half moved like a happy person. Walking speed was kept equal for both groups.

During the time on the treadmill, the scientists read out a list of active and negative words, asking people to decide whether or not each word described them well. Afterwards, people were asked to recite as many of the words as they could remember.

As expected, those who had been mimicking a depressed walk remembered more negative words than those that had been walking in a happy manner.

This finding means that our walk influences the way we treat information. And the scientists believe that using a happy walking style could help with treatment for depression.

【1】What new way did scientists from Queen’s University possibly find to change negative thoughts?

A.Doing something happy.B.Thinking of something bright.

C.Walking like a happy person.D.Thinking about being a happy person.

【2】Which of the following is NOT true about Troje’s test?

A.The 47 people walked on the treadmill.

B.Half of the people walked in a depressive walking style.

C.Another half walked in a happy walking style.

D.The two groups walked at different speeds.

【3】In the test, those who walked in a happy manner ______.

A.remembered more negative wordsB.remembered more positive words

C.lived a happier lifeD.lived a harder life

【4】According to the story, the finding can help ______.

A.treat patients with depressionB.improve one’s acting skills

C.deal with people’s memory lossD.change a person’s exercise habit

Recently, it was reported that a girl got her feet stick in a waste pipe because she kept looking at her mobile phone. It sounds a kind of ridiculous. However, when we look people around us, we can find that new technologies take up much of people time. They like talking on the Internet, which makes themselves ignore things in real life. No matter what they are done, waiting for the bus or having dinners with some friends, smart phones are always in their hands. It seems that the smart phone had controlled their life total. Life is beautiful if we can fully enjoy it, and we will miss many amazing moments.

【题目】Decision-making under Stress

A new review based on a research shows that acute stress affects the way the brain considers the advantages and disadvantages, causing it to focus on pleasure and ignore the possible negative (负面的) consequences of a decision.

The research suggests that stress may change the way people make choices in predictable ways.

“Stress affects how people learn,” says Professor Mara Mather. “People learn better about positive than negative outcomes under stress.”

For example, two recent studies looked at how people learned to connect images(影像) with either rewards or punishments. In one experiment, some of the participants were first stressed by having to give a speech and do difficult math problems in front of an audience; in the other, some were stressed by having to keep their hands in ice water. In both cases, the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately and the punished material less accurately than those who hadn’t gone through the stress.

This phenomenon is likely not surprising to anyone who has tried to resist eating cookies or smoking a cigarette while under stress –at those moments, only the pleasure associated with such activities comes to mind. But the findings further suggest that stress may bring about a double effect. Not only are rewarding experiences remembered better, but negative consequences are also easily recalled.

The research also found that stress appears to affect decision-making differently in men and women. While both men and women tend to focus on rewards and less on consequences under stress, their responses to risk turn out to be different.

Men who had been stressed by the cold-water task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way. In stressful situations in which risk-taking can pay off big, men may tend to do better, when caution weighs more, however, women will win.

This tendency to slow down and become more cautious when decisions are risky might also help explain why women are less likely to become addicted than men: they may more often avoid making the risky choices that eventually harden into addiction.

【1】We can learn from the passage that people under pressure tend to ______.

A.keep rewards better in their memory

B.recall consequences more effortlessly

C.make risky decisions more frequently

D.learn a subject more effectively

【2】According to the research, stress affects people most probably in their ______.

A.ways of making choicesB.preference for pleasure

C.tolerance of punishmentsD.responses to suggestions

【3】The research has proved that in a stressful situation, ______.

A.women find it easier to fall into certain habits

B.men have a greater tendency to slow down

C.women focus more on outcomes

D.men are more likely to take risks
