1.It is one of the most terrifying moments for any urban cyclists:the first time a huge,high-sided construction truck lumbers alongside,the driver (51)C within their high cab(驾驶室).Now a leading cycling group hopes it has (52)C with a solution-the cyclist-friendly lorry.
The draft design,to be unveiled(揭幕)on Wednesday by the London Cycling Campaign,reduces the overall height of the lorry,(53)B the driving position,and greatly (54)B the side windows of the cab,stretching them as close to road level as possible. (55)A drivers of the traditional lorry have to rely on (56)D and sensors to spot cyclists or pedestrians close to the front offside of the vehicle,if they can detect them at all,the new design all but (57)D this blind spot.
It is undoubtedly a big (58)C,especially in London,where lorries form about 5% of vehicle traffic (59)C are responsible for about half of all cyclist deaths,with a large (60)B of these involving construction lorries,often turning left into a cyclist.In 2011,of the 16 cyclist deaths in London,nine involved lorries,of which seven were construction vehicles.
If elements of the London Cycling Campaign's design look familiar that is (61)Athey are already in use-many (62)B rubbish lorries already feature low-silled glass doors,allowing the drivers to look out for both staff (63)D bins and other pedestrians.This demonstrated how construction companies could change if they wanted to.
A study (64)A last month by Transport for London said construction trucks were disproportionately(不成比率地)involved in cyclist accidents and recommended (65)Dsuch as giving drivers delivering goods to building sites more realistic time slots to avoid them being tempted into recklessness.

分析 在伦敦由于大货车的特殊性司机往往观察不到路面的行车,所以造成了很多事故,为此提出了解决此问题的措施.

解答 51-65 CCBBA  DDCCB  ABDAD
51.C 考查形容词.根据前句"the most terrifying moments for any urban cyclists"可知,对于骑自行车人来说最恐惧的时刻是,当大货车司机在驾驶室里看不到情况,此处是做状语,相当于the driver is invisible.
52.C 考查动词.此处是考查一个固定短语,"come up with"意思是"提出,想出"符合题意.
53.B 考查副词.前文提到"…within their high cab"司机在驾驶舱里看不到,所以尤其要降低驾驶舱的高度.
54.B 考查动词.由"stretching them as close to road level as possible"提示可知,要扩大驾驶舱两边的窗户,extend意思是扩大,指在面积上.
55.A  考查连接词."while"此处是"尽管"引导一个让步状语从句.
56.D 考查名词."drivers of the traditional lorry"传统的卡车司机还是依靠镜子和传感器来观察路上的行人.windows窗户;drawers抽屉;carriages车厢,故选项D符合题意.
57.D 考查动词."eliminate"动词"减少",如果司机能够检测到道路上的情况,那么新的设计几乎可以减少盲区.
58.C 考查名词.根据后句叙述可知,"在伦敦,货车占据5%的机动车数量,但是要为一半的行人死亡事件负责人",所以这是一个大问题,issue指问题,符合题意.
59.C 考查连接词.货车占据5%的机动车数量,但是要为一半以上的自行车死亡事件负责人,二者是转折的关系,故填but.
60.B  考查名词.此处考查的是一个固定短语,"a large number of"意思是"大量的"修饰前面的death,意思是大量的死亡事件.
61.A考查连接词.前句告诉我们说"London Cycling Campaign's design"如果伦敦自行车活动公司对设计很熟悉的话,那是因为"they are already in use"他们已经在使用中了.because引导一个原因状语从句.
62.B 考查形容词.前面讲述的是在伦敦的货车情况,所以此处"domestic"指"国内的"即在伦敦已经有垃圾车使用了新设计.
63.D考查动词.新的设计使垃圾车的司机既可以收集垃圾,又可以观察行人,故collect意思是收集,collect rubbish收集垃圾.
64.A 考查动词.A study 和release之间是被动关系,last month by Transport for London 上个月伦敦交通局发布了一份研究,所以released by…是过去分词短语做后置定语表示被动.
65.D 考查名词.后面提到"such as giving drivers delivering goods to building sites more realistic time slots"这些属于具体的解决问题的措施.

点评 做好完形填空,考生必须进行通篇考虑,掌握大意,综合所学词法、句法和常识进行分析判断.在进行有关逻辑语气题时,必须要符合原文的意思,要瞻前顾后,审慎分析,细心推断,密切注意相关连词的连用,注意语气的变化,应从细节着手.

14.Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon?Many people feel this way after lunch.They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness.Or,in summer,they may think it is the heat.However,the real reason lies inside their bodies.At that time-about eight hours after you wake up-your body temperature goes down.This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy.Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day.The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern.They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world,people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day.This is especially true in warmer climates,where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon.Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate.A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general.In countries where naps are traditional,people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease.Many working people,unfortunately,have no time to take naps.Though doctors may advise taking naps,employers do not allow it!If you do have the chance,however,here are a few tips about making the most of your nap.Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up.A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward.This can also happen if you sleep for too long.If you do not have enough time,try a short nap-even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.
32.Why do you sometimes feel sleepy in the early afternoon?C
A.Because you eat too much for lunch.
B.Because it's hot in summer.
C.Because your body temperature goes down at that time.
D.Because you didn't have a good sleep last night.
33.What can we learn about"naps"according to the last paragraph?D
A.All the people in warmer climates take naps in the middle of the day.
B.Doctors need to take naps while employers don't.
C.If you take naps every day,you'll never suffer from heart disease.
D.Taking naps regularly is beneficial to people's health.
34.What can we infer from the passage?A
A.You'll feel sleepy at regular intervals(间隔).
B.Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.
C.You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time.
D.If you get up at 6:30am,you'd better take a nap at about 1:30pm.
35.What would be the best title for the text?B
A.Just for a Rest        
B.All need a Nap
C.A Special Sleep Pattern 
D.Taking Naps in Warmer Climate.
6.It was a busy morning,about 8:30,when an elderly gentleman in his 80s came to the hospital.I heard him saying to the nurse that he was in a hurry for an appointment (约会) at 9:30.

The gentleman said no and told me that he (43)A to go to the nursing home (敬老院) to eat breakfast with his (44)B.He told me that she had been (45)D for a while and that she had a special disease.I asked if she would be (46)B if he was a bit late.He replied that she (47)C knew who he was,and that she had not been able to (48)Ahim for five years now.I was (49)C,and asked him,"And you (50)D go every morning,even though she doesn't know who you are?"
He smiled and said,"She doesn't know me,but I know who she is."I had to hold back (51)B as he left.

13.About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way.Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter.Perhaps,after all,it is safer to be driven by a woman!
    There are different forms of color blindness.In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red,orange and yellow are all shadows of green.Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green.In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green--a strange world indeed.
    Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain.In a single eye there are millions of very small things called"cones".These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors.There are also millions of"rods",but these are used for seeing when it is near dark.They show us shape but no color.
    Some insects have favorite colors.Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow.A red light will not attract insects,but a blue lamp will.In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors.Yet we are lucky.With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day,and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night.One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.
26.The passage is mainly aboutD.
A.color and its surprising effects.
B.women being luckier than men
C.danger caused by color blindness     
D.color blindness
27.According to the passage,with the help of the"cones",we canD.
A.tell different shapes                
B.see in a weak light
C.kill mosquitoes                    
D.tell orange from yellow
28.Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?B
A.Women are more careful.B.There are fewer color-blind women
C.Women are fonder of driving than men.
D.Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
29.Which of the statements about the color-blind is true?A
A.Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.
B.None of them can see deep red.
C.None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.
D.All of them see everything in shades of green.
30.We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using aC.
A.red light       B.yellow light      C.blue light      D.green light.
10.As a recipe for losing weight,taking a slice of chocolate cake at breakfast would seem an unlikely fantasy.
A team from Tel Aviv University found that eating pudding as part of a balanced 600-calorie breakfast that also included proteins and carbohydrates (碳水化合物),could help dieter to lose more weight---and keep it off in the long run.
Attempting to avoid sweets entirely can create a psychological addiction to these same foods in the long term.So adding desserts to breakfast can control craving(渴望) throughout the rest of the day.
Over the course of a 32-week-long study,participants,who added desserts to their breakfast lost about 40pounds more than a group that avoided such foods.What's more,they kept off the pounds longer.
A meal in the morning provides energy for the day's tasks,aids in brain functioning,and kick-starts the body's metabolism (新陈代谢),making it decisive to weight loss and maintenance.And breakfast is the meal that most successfully regulates ghrelin(胃饥饿素),the hormone that increases longer.While the level of ghrelin rises before every meals,it is controlled most effectively at breakfast time.
The researchers hoped to determine whether meal time and composition had an influence on weight loss in the short and long term,or whether it was a simple matter of the caloric count.

28.According to the passage,the underlined word"it"in paragraph 2probably refers toD.
A.the calorie                        B.the breakfast
C.the craving for pudding            D.the lost weight
29.Adding some desserts in your breakfast diet properly willB.
A.make you gain more fat
B.make you become slim more easily
C.help improve your psychological health
D.help develop your craving for more delicious food
30.Through paragraph 5.the author wants to showC.
A.the special function of ghrelin
B.some decisive ways of losing weight
C.the great importance of breakfast to us
D.the nutrition we should take in during the breakfast
31.What will the passage develop next?A
A.Another experiment on weight loss.
B.An importance of calorie.
C.People's breakfast time.
D.The composition of the breakfast.
