【答案】

1distinguish

2conclusion

3absence

4recommended

5practical

6ignored

7approaching

8complained

9panicked

10destroyed/ruined

【解析】

1考查非谓语动词。句意:我认为我有一点色盲,因为我发现区分蓝色和绿色有一点难。短语find it difficult to do sth.意为“发现做某事很难”,因此填动词原形distinguish(区分;辨别;)。故填distinguish

2考查名词。句意:斯密斯医生最终得出结论,这种罕见得到疾病没有被治愈的机会。the是定冠词,后接名词,短语came to the conclusion意为“得出结论”。故填conclusion

3考查名词。句意:由于缺少确凿的证据,这个小偷被释放了。the是冠词,冠词修饰名词absence。故填absence

4考查被动语态。句意:建议人们每年都检查牙齿。由下文内容“people have their teeth examined every year.”是一条建议可知,此处表示提出建议。句型it is recommended that意为“建议…”。故填recommended

5考查形容词。句意:他得到的大多数信息都没有实际用途。形容词修饰名词,因此用形容词practical修饰名词use。故填practical

6考查动词时态。句意:他忽视了“禁止吸烟”的牌子,在等候室点了一只烟,因此他被罚款了。and并列两个谓语动词,“lit”是动词的一般过去式,因此此空也是动词的一般过去式。故填ignored

7考查独立主格结构。句意:随着春天的临近,天气变得更暖和,树木变得更绿了。独立主格结构:with+名词+非谓语动词。动词(临近)approach和名词spring之间是主动关系,因此选现在分词。故填approaching

8考查动词时态。句意:他向我抱怨她的粗鲁,说她是他最不想与之打交道的人。由下文“was”和句意可以判断出,此句为一般过去时,因此用动词的一般过去式complained。故填complained

9考查动词时态。句意:当我看到烟从引擎冒出来的时候,我惊慌了。由when引导的时间状语中的“was”可知,主句为一般过去时。故填panicked

10考查动词被动语态结构。句意:没有人在火中受伤,但是建筑被彻底毁坏了。主语“the building”和毁坏之间是被动关系,应该用被动语态:be+动词过去分词。动词destroy/ruin意为“毁坏”。故填destroyed/ruined

独立主格结构的特点:1.独立主格结构的逻辑主语与句子的主语不同,它独立存在;2.独立主格结构中作逻辑主语的名词或代词与后面的分词、不定式等是逻辑上的主动或被动关系;3.独立主格结构一般有逗号与句子分开。如第7小题,“spring”是独立主格结构的逻辑主语,与主句主语“the weather and trees”不同,与现在分词approaching是逻辑上的主动关系。

Scientists have developed a new surgical glue that could transform emergency treatments by sealing up critical wounds in the skin or the organs, without the need for staples or sutures(钉合或缝合).

It’s called MeTro. It was developed by researchers from both Harvard Medical School and the University of Sydney, led by Nasim Annabi, an assistant professor of chemical 1. The glue is made from a modified(改良的)human protein that responds to UV light, allowing the application and drying of the gel-like substance in just a minute.

According to the international team of researchers behind the glue, it could quite literally be a lifesaver, sealing up wounds in 60 seconds without stopping the natural 2 and relaxing of the organ or the skin it’s applied to. Wounds 3 with MeTro can heal up in half the time compared with stitches or staples, the researchers claim, and if surgery is required then MeTro can simplify that 4 too. It's also one of several ways researchers are exploring to engineer our body's own natural substances to help repair it when needed.

The 5 applications are powerful – from treating serious 6 wounds at emergency sites such as following car accidents and in war zones, as well as improving hospital surgeries.

MeTro is simple to apply, can be easily stored, and works closely with natural 7 to heal a wound. What’s more, it degrades without leaving any kind of poisonous leftovers in the body.

For now the trials are 8 to animal models. But human trials are in the works, and the results to date are incredibly 9. If the MeTro can be further developed into a 10 product, it could become an essential part of a first responder’s toolkit.

【题目】 “Don’t tell anyone”. We hear these words when someone tells a secret to us. But it can be hard to keep a secret. We’re often tempted to “spill the beans”, even if we regret it later.

According to Asim Shah, professor in the Menninger Department of Psychiatry and Bchavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may well “become a burden”. This is because people often have an “obsessive (无法摆脱的) and anxious urge to share it with someone”.

An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of Notre Dame, US, suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted with secrets can suffer from depression, anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail.

But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? Shah explained that people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend. Another reason people share secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close to them. A sense of distrust can develop when people who are close do not share it with each other. “Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of either gaining or losing the trust of someone.” according to Shah.

He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out. But this doesn’t mean that it is a good idea only to share secrets with quiet people. A quiet person may be someone who keeps everything inside. To tell such a person a secret may cause them stress, and make them talk about the secret.

Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret, you’d better put yourself in their position. Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustn’t give the information away. Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someone’s secret you should come clean about it. Let the person know that their secret isn’t so secret anymore.

2A person who is entrusted with a secret ________.

A.is oft often obsessed with a certain threat

B.often would rather not have been told about it

3What can we learn from the passage?

A.Quiet people are more likely to keep the secrets to themselves.

B.Sharing secrets helps establish friendship or get over the sense of guilt.

C.It’s better to inform others of the chances of your leaking secrets beforehand.

D.Putting yourself in others’ shoes helps realize the difficulty of keeping secrets.

4What’s the best title for the passage?

A.Walls have ears.

B.Still tongues make wise heads.

C.A word spoken is past recalling.

D.Every wall has a crack.

【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in NO MORE THAN 60 WORDS. Use your own words as far as possible. Write your answer on the answer sheet.

When we wake up feeling sleepy and with dark circles under eyes, many of us often think: “I’m going to go to bed earlier tomorrow!” But however determined we are, chances are that we don’t stick to our promise. This behavior is called “bedtime procrastination(拖延症)”.

According to a study carried out by a group of health psychologists at Utrecht University in the Netherlands in 2014, bedtime procrastination is a common problem. In their study, 53 percent of the 2,400 participants said they didn’t follow their sleep schedule, delaying it at least twice a week.

It’s found that they delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late, but they couldn’t stop doing other unimportant things, which were keeping them up in the first place.

“People who generally have trouble resisting temptations and sticking to their intentions are more likely to delay going to bed.” Floor Kroese, a psychologist at Utrecht University, further explained to HuffPost.

Yet, according to scientists, lack of self-control is not the only thing to blame. Our body clock also plays an important role when it comes to bed time. In order to check the influence of the body clock on sleep, psychologists at Ulm University in Germany studied the sleep patterns of 108 people in February. It was found that those who get up late are more likely to postpone their bedtime than those who wake early every morning.

“The intention to go to bed earlier is not enough,” Jane Kuhnel, a psychologist at Ulm University, concluded in Popular Science. “Biological processes need to support this intention.”

People always think that bedtime procrastination isn’t a big problem, but as Kroese told Popular Science, “the choices we make that affect out sleep could turn out to be pretty important for our health.”

【题目】From VOA learning English, this is the Health & Lifestyle report.

Next time you make yourself a hot cup of tea or coffee, you might want to let it cool down a bit before drinking. Researchers say letting your hot drinks cool off could help you avoid some kinds of cancer.

In fact, the United Nations' cancer research agency decided to list hot drinks with lead, gasoline and exhaust fumes as “possibly carcinogenic.” In other words, each one could cause cancer.

Researchers at IARC(The International Agency for Research on Cancer) found evidence that drinks at temperatures above 65 degrees Celsius, when swallowed, can cause cancer of the esophagus(食管).

In developed countries, health experts have linked esophageal cancer to smoking and alcoholic drinks. However, researchers said “this form of cancer is more common in areas where people drink beverages at very high temperatures.”

In Europe and the United States, many people drink coffee and tea at temperatures around 60 degrees Celsius. And they often add milk which lowers the temperature considerably.

The findings, however, are good news for coffee drinkers.

In 1991, the World Health Organization listed coffee as “possibly carcinogenic.” WHO officials have since changed their position on that listing. They now suggest that the temperature of your hot drink is a greater risk factor than the actual drink itself.

Christopher Wild is the director of the IARC. When he spoke with the AFP news agency, he said the results “suggest that drinking very hot beverages is one probable cause of esophageal cancer and that it is the temperature, rather than the drinks themselves, that appears to be responsible.”

But how common is esophageal cancer? Worldwide, it is the eighth most common cancer. Cancer of the esophagus killed about 400,000 people in 2012.

I’m Anna Matteo.

A. A health magazine B. A scientific research

2According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the possible cause of cancer?

A. Lead B. Petrol

3The new research tells us________

A. Drinking coffee may cause cancer.
