7.The old Chinese saying"as happy as spending the New Year"might be outdated now in the busy modern world.The Spring Festival is regarded as the most important festival for Chinese people and an occasion for all family members to get together,like Christmas in the West.But many traditional customs accompanying the Spring
Festival,however,have weakened in practice.
"Setting off fireworks was once the most typical custom of the Spring Festival.
People thought the sputtering(爆裂)sound could help drive away evil spirits.However,the activity has been completely or partially forbidden in big cities for years as the government has taken security,noise and pollution factors into consideration."
"In recent years,some cities have begun to allow people to light fireworks during limited hours at the Spring Festival,surrendering to (屈从于) public demand.
Respecting folk traditions is a gesture of respect toward public opinion."said Zhou Xing,a folklore researcher.
"As people gain more income and it becomes easier to buy daily goods.the New Year holiday is just like any other.After long workdays,many people use the New Year holiday to take a rest,rather than visiting friends and neighbors.The process of making and enjoying the family dinner on Spring Festival Eve is the most important thing.However,many families would like to eat out to save time and energy."said Li Shunzhi,a resident of Harbin,Heilongjiang.
"I enjoy the holidays very much in the countryside.My family has been preparing for the Spring Festival more than two weeks before the holiday,cleaning the house,buying holiday goods and decorating the house with paper cuttings.On New Year's Eve,the whole family stays up to see the New Year in,and in the days to follow,a series of activities such as lion dancing,dragon lantern dancing,lantern festivals and temple fairs will be held.Without the ancient traditions,the holiday is nothing to us."said Zhang Hui,from Hebei.

解答 DABC
24.D.细节理解题.A.B.C.D在文中均有陈述,但A.B项是说明在某些城市限制燃放爆竹的问题;C项是传说中放爆竹的作用;只有D项的表述与原文是相反的,故答案选D.
25.A.推理判断题.根据Li Shunzhi 说的话可知,现在的人们生活水平提到,春节和其他节日一样,人们利用春节休息而不是走亲访友,以及到饭店吃饭可知,现代人过春节和以前发生来很大的变化,B.C.D选项均不是"暗指"意义.故此答案应该是A.
26.B.推理判断题.根据最后一段,尤其是第三句"On New Year's Eve.the whole family stays up to see the New Year in,and in the days to follow…"可知,在除夕,一家人都会呆在一起迎接春节的到来,而且接下来几天都如此,可推出答案为B.
27.C.主旨大意题.综观全文可知,由于时代的进步,传统的春节缺失了过去那种内涵以及其外在的表现形式,故答案为C.

A famous professor was known for his interesting lessons,which attracted plenty of students to his class.This time,when the class began,he picked up a very large and __ jar and began to fill it with golf balls.He asked the students if the jar was full.They __ that it was.The professor picked up a box of small pebbles (截卵石) and __ them into the jar.He shook the jar __ to let the pebbles roll into the open __ between the golf balls.When asked if the jar was full,they __ with a firm “Yes”.

“Now,” said the professor,“I want you to recognize that this jar __ your life.The golf balls are the most __ things--your family,your children,your health and your friends.If everything else was lost and only they __ your life would still be full.The __ can be the other things that __ like your job,your house,your car.The sand is everything else--the small stuff.If you put the sand into the jar first,” he __.“there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for __.If you spend all your time and __ on the small stuff,you will never have __ for the things that are more important to you.Take care of the golf balls first,the things that really matter.The rest is just sand.”

12.Thousands of people began pouring into Pennsylvania from other states.They wanted to buy lottery tickets(彩票).The tickets cost only 0.9 each.Butthatsmallspendingcouldbringthemarewardof 90 million.That was the second largest lottery jackpot (积累奖金)in history.
More than 87 million tickets were bought for the Pennsylvania lottery drawing.Those who bought tickets had to choose seven numbers from 1 to 80.The chance of winning was one in 9.6 million,but that little chance certainly didn't affect ticket sales.In the last few days before the drawing,tickets were sold at the unbelievable rate of 500 per second.
Experts say many people buy lottery tickets because they just want to have a piece of the action.Others say the lottery is a stock market for poor people.It allows them to dream about wealth they'll probably never have.
But many people believe lotteries are no better than legalized gambling.Some critics note that most people who play are poor and may not be able to afford the tickets.There are also many addicts who take the game seriously.They may pour their life savings into lottery tickets.Some clubs have been formed to help them kick the habit.
Politicians like lotteries because they provide money that would otherwise have to come from new taxes.The profits from lotteries are usually used to pay for education or programs for senior citizens.But critics say this arrangement just allows states to legalize vice,under the name of social progress.Whether you regard stock lotteries right or not,you cannot refuse to accept their extreme popularity with many Americans.

25.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?B
A.Buying lotteries may help people become wealthy overnight.
B.Politicians like lotteries because they don't have to pay extra taxes.
C.The profits from lotteries are usually used for the public.
D.Some critics don't like lotteries because many poor people waste money on them.
26.In just one hour in the last few days,the Pennsylvania lottery sold tickets totalingB.
A.16.2 million
B.38.88 million    
C.19.6 million
D.87 million

A.something profitable  
B.something challenging
C.something immoral    
D.something easy

A.To introduce the lotteries in Pennsylvania.
B.To persuade people not to buy lotteries.
C.To show the drawbacks of buying lotteries.
D.To tell us the different opinions on lotteries.
19.The World Health Organization ( WHO) said that processed meat may lead to cancer.Do you still dare eat cancer-linked processed meat?Here are some comments on the website.
Bill (Australia) I'd rather live a short,pleasant life than a long,unhappy one,denying (拒绝给予)myself tasty food just because some experts say it's not healthy.We should all enjoy the one life we have-if I had listened to every piece of health advice I would never go anywhere,eat anything or enjoy life in any way.So,I won't change my habit.I am going to have a bacon sandwich,glass of wine,burger,can of coke whenever I feel like it.
Tim (America) Is meat really as bad as smoking?I don't think so.According to the WHO 34,000 people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat.In 2012,8.2 million people died of cancer worldwide.That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0.41 percent of people dying of cancer because of processed meat.I'll take the chance.
Helen (Switzerland) The WHO doesn't say that just one bite of meat causes cancer,it is rather saying that people should vary their diet.People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits.They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.
Van ( China) Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians (素食者).So for your health,the environment and future generations,it is not difficult;it just needs a change of attitude.There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.

B.He'll live a pleasant life.

C.Full of risks.
D.Not worthwhile.
23.What may be Helen's response to WHO's warning?D

24.Who have the most similar viewpoints?A

C.Helen and Van.
D.Bill and Van.
15.Have you grasped the information taught by your teacher in class?Have you understood what you saw on the screen?Maybe everyone has their own learning style.
Generally speaking,we gather information with our minds and bodies in different ways,such as seeing,hearing and doing.Then our brains deals with that information,organizing it and connecting it to things we are already aware of.In other words,our brains will deal with the information in different ways.Sometimes we think in pictures or words.Sometimes we remember details or the big pictures.
For different people,their learning styles are different too.One person may find it hard to make out the information in written forms but easy to know it immediately in an oral description.However,another person might find difficulties with the picture but the written message.
Now scientists say there exist seven basic learning styles.
•Linguistic:These people learn through listening,reading,speaking and writing.
•Logical:These people learn with formula (公式) and principles (原理).
•Visual:These people learn by seeing what they are studying.
•Musical:These people learn well when information is presented through music.
•Kinesthetic:These people learn from movement and physical activities.
•Intrapersonal:These people learn best by linking new information directly with their own experiences.
•Interpersonal:These people learn well by working with others.
Therefore,if you know what learning style is your strength,you can balance your weakness,and get a more successful learning experience.

25.From the passage,we know that our brainsA.
A.deal with the information in different ways
B.send out the information in the same way
C.organize information with our bodies
D.gather information in the same way
26.A visual learner usually learnsB.
A.through listening and speaking
B.by seeing what he is learning
C.from movement and physical activities
D.by linking new information with his experience
27.A musical learner will find it easy to learnD.
A.with formulas and principles  
B.by working with others
C.through reading and writing  
D.through music he hears
28.The purpose of the passage is to tell us toA.
A.learn more successfully      
B.gather more information
C.understand more quickly     
D.exchange information better.
