【答案】Dear Mr. Green,

In order to spread Chinese food culture, my city is going to host the First International Chinese Food Festival in two weeks. I’m writing to invite you to attend it with me.

It is to take place in the City Square from 14 to 16 in October. Some chefs will demonstrate key Chinese cooking skills with a wide variety of Chinese food raw materials on display and visitors are welcome to taste them for free. I think it is a good chance for you to experience Chinese culture. Since the City Square is located downtown, we can get there by bus or underground. If you are interested, please let me know.

Looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

According to a new study just published in Psychological Science, any one person seen in a group just seems better looking than when viewed alone. The reason: human eyes average things out, and when it comes to faces, average is usually good.

1 Facial analysis studies show the symmetry(对称) is almost always regarded as prettier than asymmetry and the most beautiful faces are the ones on which eyes are no more or less than a certain distance apart, and the forehead, chin, cheeks and other features take up no more than a certain share of the whole. It’s the reason that models may be gorgeous but can prove awfully difficult to tell apart.

“Perhaps,” says psychological scientist Drew Walker of the University of California, San Diego, in a statement that accompanied the release of the study, “beautiful people are all alike, but every unattractive person is unattractive in their own ways.”

To test how that plays out in a group setting, Walker and his UCSD collaborator, psychological scientist Edward Vul, recruited 130 undergraduate students and showed them pictures of 100 different men and women. 2 Other times they were cut out to show just one face at a time. Still other times, the faces were taken out of context and arranged on a simple grid (网格) of either four, nine or 16 faces.

Consistently, the researchers found, the sole shots were regarded as less attractive than the faces viewed in a group—whether in a real setting or on the grid. This was true regardless of the gender of the subjects and regardless of whether they would broadly be described as following most definitions of attractiveness or unattractiveness. 3

The explanation for the phenomenon, they believe, is the averaging effect and how it works. 4 “Individuals with complementary features—one person with narrow eyes and one person with wide eyes—would enjoy a greater boost in attractiveness when seen together, as compared to groups composed of individuals who have similar features,” Walker and Vul write.

A. Both the gorgeous and non- gorgeous improved by being with other people.

B. Sometimes the subjects in the pictures were shown as part of a three-person group.

C. It turns out that people don’t even need to be in an actual group to look more attractive.

D. It’s no secret that our definition of beauty is defined by a very clear set of physical norms.

AB. A big nose in the company of a small nose does not look bigger still; rather, both noses move closer to the average.

AC. While being average-looking might seem like a bad thing, the research suggests that’s not necessarily the case for attractiveness.

【题目】 A study has shown that severe stress lasting weeks or months can damage cell communications in the brain’s memory areas. Recently, researchers from University of California, Irvine, have provided the first evidence that short-term stress lasting for a few hours has the same effect.

“Stress does exist in our lives and cannot be avoided,” said Dr. Baram, leader of the UC Irvine School. “Our findings can play an important role in the present development of medicine that might prevent these undesirable effects and offer understanding of why some people are forgetful or have difficulty keeping the memories.”

In their study, Baram and her UC Irvine colleagues identified a novel process in which stress caused these effects. They found that, severe stress activated(激活) Corticotropin Releasing Hormones(CRH), which prevented the brain from keeping memory.

Memory takes place at synapses, where there are connections through which brain cells communicate. These synapses lie on dendritic spines(神经元). In rat and mouse studies, Baram’s group saw that the release(释放) of CRH in the brain’s primary memory center led to the rapid breakup of these dendritic spines, which in turn limited the ability of synapses to collect and store memories.

In addition, the researchers reproduced the effects of stress on dendritic spines by keeping low levels of CRH, and watching how the spines ruptured over minutes. “Fortunately, once we removed the CRH, the spines seemed to grow back again, ” Baram said. “And this study can play a role in the creation of treatments to address stress-related memory loss.”

1According to the text, short-term stress can lead to ________.

A.memory lossB.cell decrease

C.head damageD.thought disorder

2The underlined word “ruptured” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________.

A.came into beingB.built up

C.broke apartD.died away

3What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?

A.To discuss the main stages of stress.

B.To show the primary cause of stress.

C.To introduce a new finding about stress.

D.To promote an effective treatment for stress.
