36.D

解析：挪威人在比赛中胜过了他们，应该用beat sb in the race。而win是指赢得某项比赛，后跟比赛项目或奖项。

37.C

解析： 放置国旗一般是把它竖起来或固定好。Put是一般地随意地置放； lay是平躺，平放；而plant则有种植，固定的意思。

38.D

解析： 拍照的动作应该发生在竖起国旗之后，开始返回之前。

39.D

解析： 从下文来看，返回的旅程充满了艰险，并有人员的伤亡，应该是出乎意料的缓慢。

40.C

解析： 去南极探险一般在极昼期间，不存在日出日落的现象，可以排除A、B。另外，风雪弥漫，找不到回家的标记，可以推测出是阴天，太阳极少出现，所以选C。

41.C

解析： 石头是有意设置的作为返回的标记的，所以应选择有这方面含义的set up。

42.D

解析： 人员的损失使情况变的更糟，A、B之意背道而弛，不予考虑。C是原级，只表达内心的愁苦。所以D是符合上下文的最佳选项。

43.C

解析： think of as是一个固定搭配，意思是“把……看作，以为……是”

44.B

解析： 一个强壮的人掉进了冰窟，肯定要挣扎着生还。Struggle along意思是“挣扎着活下去”。

45.A

解析： 和遇难者相比，这四个人算是幸存者（left），但并没有人救（save）他们。

46.A

解析：他们的行进速度是由他们自己支配的，所以用manage。

47.B

解析：从下文看他的脚已被冻伤，所以此处他所遭受的正是冻脚之痛。

48.A

解析： 脚已肿胀，第二天仍需在冰雪中行走，即使费力也得穿靴，而不是never（从不）或 seldom（罕见）。

49.A

解析：Captain Oates是一个坚强的人，他是在脚被冻伤的情况下忍痛行走，而非其它原因。be in great pain就指的是“承受极大的疼痛”。

50.D

解析： 队长担心他的缓慢行动影响了其他人的自救。那么其余的，其他的，应该用the others。

51.D

解析： 队员们拒绝把队长一个人留下，而是继续帮助他。表示动作的持续，此处非on莫属。

52.B

解析： 野外宿营，需要支起帐篷。Put up 意思是“支起，搭起”，C、D不需要put up。所以选B

解析：（帐篷）是最恰当的。

53.A

解析： 此处用while来引导时间状语，表示主句和从句动作同时发生。

54.D

解析：may be gone表示走开（一段时间），这是队长的一个委婉的说法。

55.C

解析：从文章看，他是独自走进风雪中，希望以自己的死来换取同伴们的生。不是worriedly（担心地，为难地），也不是patiently（忍耐地）。

Exhausted and unhappy, you still have to squeeze a smile to your friends, or teachers. That’s just life, you may think. But new research suggests that putting on a fake smile can worsen people’s mood and even lower work efficiency.

Lead researcher Brent Scott with other researchers studied a group of bus drivers for two weeks. They tried to find out what happened when the drivers were involved in “surface acting” or fake smiling, and the opposite, “deep acting” which means people put on real smiles by recalling pleasant memories or thinking about their current situation more positively.

The results showed that on days when drivers were forced to smile, they felt depressed and didn’t want to work. On days when they smiled due to positive thoughts, their mood improved a lot as well as their work efficiency.

The research goes against the popular belief among companies that employees should be cheerful to customers at all times. They include employees of shops, banks, call center workers and others who have face-to-face contact with members of the public. “Smiling for the sake of(为了) smiling can lead to emotional exhaustion and coldness, and that’s bad for the organization,” Scott told the Daily Mail.

The study also showed that women were harmed more by fake smiling than men. Their mood and work performance both worsened more. But they were helped more by deep acting — their mood became better and they worked more efficiently.

However, while deep acting seemed to improve mood in the short term, Scott says it’s not a long-term solution for unhappiness.

“There have been some suggestions that if you do this over a long period that you start to feel inauthentic(不真实的),” Scott said. “You may be trying to cultivate positive emotions, but at the end of the day you may not feel like yourself anymore.”

1.Brent Scott and others’ experiments on bus drivers suggest that ______.

A. depression among bus drivers is common

B. thinking in a positive way helps with work efficiency

C. bus drivers with pleasant memories tend to be less efficient

D. the bus drivers’ work efficiency is determined by their mood

2.According to the article, which of the following statements about “fake smiling” is TRUE?

A. It is good for the business but bad for the employees.

B. It doesn’t work on people who are emotionally expressive.

C. It is a widely accepted cultural practice in the US.

D. It causes more harm to women than men.

3.We can conclude from the article that the researchers think that ______.

A. people should be true to their feelings

B. smiling helps to put people in a good mood and become more efficient

C. it is unnecessary to cultivate positive emotions

D. deep acting can improve mood in the long run

4.The article is mainly about ______.

A. the importance of smiling during face-to-face contact

B. a new study on fake smiling and its influence on people

C. suggestions on improving work efficiency

D. how to cheer up when you are exhausted
