20.A young and successful manager was traveling down a neighborhood street fast (48)when a brick hit the door of his new car.
He jumped out of the car,shouting,"That's a new car and the brick(49)that/which you threw is going to cost a lot of money.Why did you do it?""I'm sorry.I didn't know (50)what else to do!"begged the youngster.
"It's my brother,"he said."He fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift (51)him up."
Sobbing,the boy asked the manager,"Would you please help me get him back (52)to his wheelchair?He is hurt (53)and he's too heavy for me."
Moved beyond words,he lifted the young man back into the wheelchair.
He never repaired (54)the side door.He kept the dent(凹痕)to remind him not to go through life(55)so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention.

分析 本文讲述了一位年轻有为的经理加上他的新车快速行驶在附近的街道上,忽然一个砖头砸到了他的车门.开始他很生气,要求对方赔偿,但是砸车的小孩乞求
到:"我不知道还能有什么办法,我哥哥受伤了,从轮椅上掉下来了,而且他太重我抱不动,您能帮我把他抱回轮椅吗?"年轻的经理感到地说不出话来,他帮助小孩把他哥哥抱回轮椅.这位经理没再修他的车门,他留着这个凹痕是想提醒自己:"生活的路上不能走得太快,否则别人就会通过敲打来引起你的注意".

解答 48.when;考查连词,此处when用作连词,意为"突然",这句话意为"突然一块砖头砸到了他的新车的车门".
49.that/which;考查定语从句,先行词为 the brick,指物,所以先行词可以用which或that.
50.what;考查疑问代词,这里用疑问代词what与else共同作do的宾语,意为"我不知道别的我还能做什么".   
51.him;考查人称代词,分析句意为"他从轮椅上掉了下来,我抱不起来他",可知空格处指代的是前面的he,又在句中作lift的宾语,所以用him.   
52.to;考查介词,此处to用作介词,表示方向,意为"到某个地方".  
53.and;考查连词,分析句子意思为"他受伤了,对我来说又太重",可知此处为并列关系,故用并列连词and.   
54.the;考查冠词,这里用定冠词表示特指,特指前文提到的被碰坏的车门.  
55.so;考查固定搭配,这是"so+形容词/副词+that从句"结构,意为"如此…以至于…".

点评 首先要通读全文,了解大意,抓住上下文语境所提供的信息,仔细分析带空格的句子,明确空格所要填的词义,词型和短语搭配给出所要填的正确形式,然后整体阅读短文,核对答案.

5.Some people are like homing pigeons:Drop them off anywhere,and they'll find their way around.Other people,though,can't tell when they're holding a map upside down.Are the directionally challenged just bad learners?
Not all of your navigational (导航的)skills are learned.Research shows that your sense of direction is innate.An innate ability is something you are born with.Your brain has special navigational neurons-head-direction cells,place cells,and grid cells (网格细胞)-and they help program your inside compass when you're just a baby.
In 2010,scientists carried out an experiment to study baby rats'neural activity in their brains.Although the rats were newborns,the researchers discovered that their head-direction cells (which help them recognize the direction they're facing) were fully grown and developed.The rats,it seemed,were born with a sense of direction.And they hadn't even opened their eyes yet!
Humans,of course,are not rats.But the hippocampus-the brain area we use for navigation-is similar in most mammals.If the rat's compass develops this way,then it's likely that a human's compass does,too.
If we're born with a sense of direction,then why are some people so good at getting lost?The scientists found that the two other cells-place and grid cells-developed within the first month.Place cells are thought to help us form a map in our mind,while grid cells help us navigate new and unfamiliar places.The two cells work together,and that's where the trouble might be.
People who took part in a 2013 study played a video game that required them to travel quickly between different places.Monitoring their brains,the scientists found that grid cells helped the gamers recognize where they were-even without landmarks.According to researcher Michael Kahana,differences in how grid cells work may help explain why some people have a better sense of direction than others.
32.What did the 2010 research find?A
A.Rats have a natural ability to recognize directions.
B.Rats'hippocampus is different from that of humans.
C.Rats usually find their way without opening their eyes.
D.Baby rats have as many head-direction cells as grown-ups.
33.What do we know about our navigational neurons?D
A.Place cells let us know how to read a map.
B.Grid cells help us reach the place we are going to.
C.They help us use a compass when we lose our way.
D.Place and grid cells grow later than head-direction cells.
34.Why are some people so good at getting lost?B
A.They can't remember landmarks.
B.Their grid cells can't work very well.
C.They are unfamiliar with new places.
D.Their ability to follow directions is poor.
35.What is the text mainly about?A
A.Human navigational skills.
B.The compass in rats'body.
C.Why grid cells are useful.
D.How homing pigeons work.
12.Children today spend less time outdoors than ever before and it may be harmful not only to their physical health,but also to their cognitive (认知的) development.
A year-long study,recently published in the Sciences,found that elementary school children who were exposed to more green space within or directly outside their school showed improved learning and memory.The findings reinforce (加强) that of a recent six-year study on 905Massachusetts public elementary schools,which found that students in schools that had more"greenness"in their surroundings reported higher scores on standardized testing in English and math."There is an expanding body of scientific evidence linking the human experience in the natural world to better physical and mental health and improved cognitive abilities,"journalist Richard Louv,co-founder of the Children & Nature Network,said in an email to The Huffington Post."An increasing number of homeschoolers,nature preschools,independent primary and secondary schools,and forward-thinking public schools are incorporating (并入) nature experience into learning."
The new study was conducted on more than 2,500children in second,third and fourth grade at 36primary schools in Barcelona,Spain.Researchers found that the students who attended schools with more green space showed a 5percent improvement in the short-term memory that's critical for reasoning,learning and comprehension.But their inattentiveness decreased slightly.
Spending time outside could have a number of benefits for children beyond improved memory and attention.Another recent study found that adventurous outdoor play such as climbing,rough and tumble (翻筋斗) play,and exploring alone improves children's physical health while also help them develop creativity and social skills greatly.
Some schools are starting to take notice,creating more space for children to enjoy being in nature,including community gardens,outdoor playgrounds and small parks.
32.What did the study lasting a year find?C
A.The cognitive abilities of children today decreased.
B.The findings of another six-year study were incorrect.
C.Being exposed to nature was beneficial to the learning of pupils.
D.Students had higher scores on testing in English and math than before.
33.According to the passage,what can we know about Richard Louv?B
A.He discourages students from getting close to nature to gain experience.
B.He is one of the founders of the Children & Nature Network.
C.He conducted the study on 905Massachusetts public elementary schools.
D.He often contributes articles to The Huffington Post.
34.Spending time in green space may have little effect on children'sA.
A.inattentiveness
B.creativity
C.communication
D.learning
35.In which column of a newspaper can you see this article?D
