12．He __________ everywhere for materials and finally his efforts paid off．The medicine __________ to be very effective．（　　）
A．looked； was provedB．explored； was proved
C．sought； has provedD．hunted； was proving

分析 他到处寻找材料，最后他的努力得到了回报．

解答 C考查动词词义．look"看"；sought是动词seek"寻找"的过去时；explore"探索"；hunt"狩猎，搜索"．根据句意：他到处寻找材料，最后他的努力得到了回报．所以第一个空选sought； prove是动词证明，无被动语态，根据句意：这种药证明是有效的，可以判断用现在时，而A，B，D 都是过去时，所以答案选C．

点评 本题考查动词的词义．动词词义题一直都是高考考查的一个热点，它注重考查考生结合语境准确选用词语和正确时态语态的能力和．由于英语词汇丰富，且用法多变，考生掌握起来有较大难度，因此在平时应注意词汇的积累，理解词语的含义及其常见的习惯搭配，再联系句子所表述的意义和语境，选出正确的答案．

2．I had offered to watch my 3-year-old daughter，Ramanda，so that my wife could go out with a friend．I was getting some work done while Ramanda appeared to be having a good time in the other room．No problem，I figured．But then it got a little too quiet and I yelled out．"What are you doing．Raxiianda？"No response．I repeated my question and heard her say，"Oh…"nothing．"Nothing？What does"nothing"mean？
I got up from my desk and ran out into the living room，and then I saw her take off down the hall．I chased her up the stairs and watched her as her little behind made a hard left into the bedroom．I was gaining on her!She took off for the bathroom．Bad move．I had  her cornered．I told her to turn around．She refused．I pulled out my big，mean authoritative（命令式的）Daddy voiced Young lady，I said turn around!"
Slowly，she turned toward me．In her hand was what was left of my wife's new lipstick．And every square inch of her face was covered with bright red （except her lips of course）!
As she looked up at me with fearful eyes，lips trembling．I heard every voice that had been shouted to me as a child．"How could you…You should know better than that…How many times have you been told …What a bad thing to do…"It was just a matter of my picking out which old message I was going to use on her so that she would know what a bad girl she had been．But before I could let loose，I looked down at the sweatshirt my wife had put on her only an hour before．In big letters it said，"I'M A PERFECT LITTLE ANGEL!"I looked back up into her tearful eyes and，instead of seeing a bad girl who didn't listen，I saw a child of God …a perfect little angel full of worth，value and a wonderful spontaneity（自发行为）that I had come dangerously close to shaming out of her．
"Sweetheart，you look beautiful!let's take a picture so Mommy can see how special you look．"I took the picture and thanked God that I didn't miss the opportunity to reaffirm（在肯定）what a perfect little angel he had given me．

3．To be more grateful in life means that you are also allowing yourself to be happier，more contented and more satisfied with everything that has been going on around you．But with all the stress，all the disappointments and all the anxiety around you，I bet you ask yourself this question all the time："How exactly can I be more grateful with my life？"（51）F
1．Learn to live in the moment．
Life is a wonderful adventure full of enriching experiences and endless possibilities．Don't just go through the motions of repetitive （重复的） activities and boring tasks．No!Being a mindless zombie can make you more likely to take things for granted．（52E

20．Food is life； it gives us the nourishment （营养） we need to stay alive and be healthy．（31）E Brian Wansink，a professor at the University of Illinois，says we also eat certain foods because they make us feel good，and remind us of happy memories．Wansink calls this kind of food comfort food．For some people，ice cream is a comfort food．For others，a bowl of noodles makes them feel good．
（32）D Professor Wansink believes that we connect food with important times，feelings，and people in our lives．"When I was a child，my mother made a delicious soup； I loved it． （33）G And it helps me feel better，"says one of Wansink's coworkers．
Do men andwomen choose different comfort foods？Wansink's research at the University of Illinois says"yes"．In his study，the favorite comfort for both men and women was ice cream．After this，men usually preferred hot，delicious foods like soup or noodles． （34）F Men and women like to eat comfort foods when they are happy，but women eat these foods more when they are sad or worried．
（35）AAbout 40 percent of the comfort food in Wansink's study were healthy main dishes or soups and vegetables．It shows，says Wansink，that a comfort food can taste good and be good for you．

A．Not all comfort foods are junk food．
B．Where can we buy this sort of food？
C．Sweet foods are also their preference but not the favorites of women．

E．Usually，we eat because we are hungry or need energy．
F．Women like sweet things such as chocolate and cookies．
G．Now，I often have this kind of food when I am tired or worried．
