【题目】After ________ seemed a very long time, the badly-wounded soldier came back to life.

A. that B. it

C. which D. what

【答案】D

【解析】

考查名词性从句引导词。句意:经过了很长一段时间之后,重伤的士兵恢复了生机。分析句子可知,________ seemed a very long time为宾语从句,做介词after的宾语,句中的动词seemed缺少主语,在宾语从句中缺少宾语,因为前面有介词after,所以不能用it,因为不是一个句子,排除B项;that在用于名词性从句时无意义,故排除C项;要用what/which;但which有范围,而what没有范围限制,本句中是没有范围的,故选D项。

【题目】Direction: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main file of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

Declining mental function is often seen as a problem of old age, but certain aspects of brain function actually begin their decline in young adulthood, a new study suggests.

The study, which followed more than 2,000 healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 60, found that certain mental functions—including measures of abstract reasoning, mental speed and puzzle-solving—started to dull as early as age 27. Dips in memory, meanwhile, generally became apparent around age 37.

On the other hand, indicators of a person’s accumulated knowledge—like performance on tests of vocabulary and general knowledge—kept improving with age, according to the findings published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging. The results do not mean that young adults need to start worrying about their memories. Most people’s minds function at a high level even in their later years, according to researcher Timothy Salthouse.

“These patterns suggest that some types of mental flexibility decrease relatively early in adulthood, but that the amount of knowledge one has, and the effectiveness of integrating it with one’s abilities, may increase throughout all of adulthood if there are no diseases,” Salthouse said in a news release.

The study included healthy, educated adults who took standard tests of memory, reasoning and perception at the outset and at some point over the next seven years. The tests are designed to detect subtle (细微的) changes in mental function, and involve solving puzzles, recalling words and details from stories, and identifying patterns in collections of letters and symbols. In general, Salthouse and his colleagues found, certain aspects of cognition (认知能力) generally started to decline in the late 20s to 30s. The findings shed light on normal age-related changes in mental function, which could aid in understanding the process of dementia (痴呆), according to the researchers.

【题目】 “The price of books for our students is just getting higher and higher andcombined with the rising cost of tuitionit’s killing these students”said Peter Jasona college professor. “Rememberstudents are one of the poorest groups of people in America. Almost half of them have at least one part-time job. In factone of my students has three jobs. And she still manages to have high scores and go to school full-time. ”

Textbook prices are traditionally high. Adding to that problem, many college teachers change textbooks year after year; they either upgrade to a new edition or switch to an entirely different textbook. This further hurts students because if an instructor no longer uses a particular textbookthat book has no resale value.

Dr. Jason decided to make reading a little easier and a lot cheaper for his students by writing his own book on public speaking. “Many books have an increased price because of CD-ROMslots of color photographs and pictures. I talked to my studentsand many of themlike meprefer to keep things simple! Soa few years agoI wrote my own textbook. Compared to most other public speaking booksmine is half the number of pagesand one-third the price. That is$30 instead of $90. When I wrote a second edition last yearstudents only had to buy the 35 new pages, For only $7. 00they had almost a new book. Now my loose-leaf textbook enjoys great popularity among the students. Maybe in the future more writers and publishers will try it. ”
