6．I clearly remembered it was just on that spring night that I began to grow up．Coming from my aunt's house，my mother said we might soon be leaving for America．We were on the bus then．I was crying，and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me．I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning．
    I do not remember myself crying for this reason again．In fact，I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives．When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see-the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures．The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then．
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism，but the idea did not come to me at once．For the first two years in New York I was really lost-having to study in three schools as a result of family moves．I did not quite know what I was or what I should be．Mother remarried，and things became even more complex for me．Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other．I was often sad，and saw no end to"the hard times．"
    My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home．I wrote letters，filled out forms，translated at interviews with immigration （移民）officers，took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there，and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives．
From my experiences I have learned one important rule：Almost all common troubles finally go away!Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up，and just wait a little!I believe that my life will turn out all right，even though it will not be that easy．

16．To win an Oscar is an achievement at any age．To do so at 22，as Jennifer Lawrence has，is just amazing．Recently，the American star won Best Actress at this year's Academy Awards for her role in the film The Silver Linings Playbook．According to Time magazine's Richard Corliss，Lawrence is that rare young actress who"lends a mature intelligence to any ro1e"．
Though Lawrence has found great success through her big screen work，Lawrence wasn't sure what she really liked doing before the age of l4．She thought she'd go to college and may be find a career as a doctor or a travel agent．
Lawrence's two brothers were star athletes and one of them was a straight-A student．Unlike them，she suffered through school，never quite finding where she belonged．However，during a trip to New York，Lawrence suddenly realized that she wanted to be an actress．When she was enjoying the beautiful city，a model seeker asked if he could take her picture，and the next day he called her in for an audition（试镜）．
"I read the script（剧本）and it was the first time I had that feeling like I understand this，"Lawrence said．"Within 20minutes，in the cab ride from the hotel room，I decided I didn't want to be a model．In fact，I wanted to be an actress．"Having appreciated this young lady's performance，the agency was so impressed with her reading that they signed her on the spot．But she insisted on finishing high school so she could give her full attention to her acting career．
Lawrence burst onto the Hollywood scene last year with The Hunger Games，which established her as the highest-grossing（票房最高的）female action hero of all time．Rolling Stone called her"the most talented young actress in America"．
63．What can we know about Jennifer Lawrence from Paragraph 3？A
A．She seemed not to fit in with her school days well．
B．She knew clearly what she wanted to do．
C．Her two brothers were doing well in all school subjects．
D．Her school performance made her today's fame．
64．Lawrence made up her mind to be an actress because ofC
A．the model seeker's encouragement
B．the beautiful scenery of New York
C．a model interview
D．her brothers'examples
65．From the text we can know that Lawrence is an actress of greatD．
A．confidence
B．ambition
C．independence
D．talent
66．What is the best title of the text？A
A．Winning Young
B．Following Dreams 
C．Choosing Early
D．Acting Wisely．
17．You must have seen or heard some of the ads，which deal with widespread socialconcerns．（关注）
14．If you could be anybody in the world，who would it be？Your neighbour or a super star？A few people have experienced what it might be like to step into the skin of another person，thanks to an unusual virtual reality（虚拟现实）device．Rikke Wahl，an actress，model and artist，was one of the participants in a body swapping experiment at the Be Another lab，a project developed by a group of artists based in Barcelona．She swapped with her partner，an actor，using a machine called The Machine to Be Another and temporarily became a man．"As I looked down，I saw my whole body as a man，dressed in my partner's pants，"she said．"That's the picture I remember best．"
The set-up is relatively simple．Both users wear a virtual reality headset with a camera on the top．The video from each camera is sent to the other person，so what you see is the exact view of your partner．If she moves her arm，you see it．If you move your arm，she sees it．
To get used to seeing another person's body without actually having control of it，participants start by raising their arms and legs very slowly，so that the other can follow along．Eventually，this kind of slow synchronised（同步的）movement becomes comfortable，and participants really start to feel as though they are living in another person's body．
Using such technology promises to alter people's behaviour afterwards-potentially for the better．Studies have shown that virtual reality can be effective in fighting racism-the bias（偏见）that humans have against those who don't look or sound like them．Researchers at the University of Barcelona gave people a questionnaire called the Implicit Association Test，which measures the strength of people's associations between，for instance，black people and adjectives such as good，bad，athletic or awkward．Then they asked them to control the body of a dark skinned digital character using virtual reality glasses，before taking the test again．This time，the participants'bias scores were lower．The idea is that once you've"put yourself in another's shoes"you're less likely to think ill of them，because your brain has internalised the feeling of being that person．
The creators of The Machine to Be Another hope to achieve a similar result．"At the end of body swapping，people feel like holding each other in their arms，"says Arthur Pointeau，a programmer with the project．"It's a really nice way to have this kind of experience．I would really，really recommend it to everyone．"
32．The word"swapping"（paragraph 1）is closest in meaning toA．
A．exchanging         B．building         C．controlling         D．transplanting
33．We can infer from the experiment at the Be Another lab thatC．
A．participants will live more passionately after the experiment
B．we can learn to take control of other people's bodies
C．our feelings are related to our bodily experience
D．the Machine to Be Another can help people change their sexes
34．In the Implicit Association Test，before the participants used virtual reality glasses to control a dark skinned digital character，B．
A．they fought strongly against racism
B．they were more biased against those unlike them
C．they changed their behaviour dramatically
D．they scored lower on the test for racism
35．It can be concluded from the passage thatC．
A．technology helps people realize their dreams
B．our biases could be eliminated through experiments
C．virtual reality helps promote understanding among people
D．our points of view about others need changing constantly．
1．My deskmate admires my fluent English very much and I usually feel（66）encouraged（encourage） by his compliments．
One day，（67）when we learned the new word"eccentric"in class，we（68）wereasked（ask） to make a sentence with it．I volunteered to do it by saying"My deskmate is an eccentric boy（69）whose clothes never fit him．"（70）Hearing（Hear） this，the whole class burst into（71）laughter（laugh） and my deskmate's face turned red．（72）After class，I learned from the teacher that my deskmate would have dropped out of school if he hadn't been helped by others．My mindless words must（73）havehurt（hurt） him deeply．
Not until then id I realize words could be powerful in（74）bothpositive and negative ways．We should avoid hurting （75）others（other） if we can't always be encouraging when we speak．
11．As a rule，participatorsare required either to accept the challenge or donate some money to ALS patients in the"Ice Bucket Challenge"（require）
18．The first time I travelled to Japan，Iwas impressed by the Japanese quality．（impress）
15．A woman in the US is able to speak for the first time in 11years after a pioneering voice box transplant（移植）．
Brenda Jensen said the operation was a great success which had saved her life．Thirteen days after the surgery she said her first words："Good morning，I want to go home．"It is the first time a voice box and windpipe（气管） have been transplanted at the same time and only the second time a voice box has ever been transplanted．
Ms．Jensen，52，had been unable to speak on her own since her voice box was damaged during surgery in 1999．Since then，she has been unable to taste or smell food，could breathe only through a hole in her windpipe and could talk only with the help of an electronic voice box．
In October，surgeons at the University of California Davis Medical Centre removed the voice box and 6cm of the windpipe from a donor body．In an 18-hour operation，this was transplanted into Ms．Jensen's throat and the team connected it to her blood supply and nerves（神经）．
Professor Martin Birchall from University College London，who was part of the surgery team，said："We've learned that we can repair nerves to make even very complex organs function again．It'll open the door to better facial transplants and will be extremely important as tissue engineering develops．"
A voice box transplant might be life changing，but it is not life saving．Everyone who receives a transplant must take drugs to control the immune system（免疫系统）for the rest of their lives．These drugs can reduce life expectancy，so they are normally set aside for life saving procedures．
One of the reasons Ms．Jensen was a suitable person for this transplant was that she was already taking immune controlling drugs after a kidney-pancreas transplant four years ago．Professor Peter Belafsky，part of the surgical team，said："Brenda was an exceptional candidate for the transplant because she was highly motivated．Anyone who's met Brenda knows that she is a strong and determined person with a great outlook on life in spite of the many physical challenges she's faced over her lifetime．

D．Courageous Woman Defeating Fears．
16．A recent study has shown that eating a small amount of dark chocolate every day could be good for your health．Scientists have found that a regular 2ounces can help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of having a heart attack or stroke（中风）without any weight gain．But take care before you reach for a large bar．The effects are canceled out if more than 30calories are taken into your body each day，the researchers warn．
It's already known that a chemical called polyphenol（多酚），found in chocolate，can help reduce blood pressure，and blood pressure lowered in this way can reduce the risk of death from a stroke by 8percent and from a heart attack by 5percent，scientists declare．And it can also reduce the risk or death in general by 4percent．
A daily diet with a little chocolate has the same effect with some special diets designed to lower blood pressure，according to one researcher．"Although all the degree of the blood pressure reduction is small，the effects are quite obvious，"the researchers said．
However，Sara Stanner，a nutritionist at the British Heart Foundation，is quite cautious．"This study suggests that small quantities of small chocolate might have good effects on blood pressure．However，it is important to remember that chocolate is also high in fat and calories．So eating much is not good for your heart．""Polyphenols are also found in fruits and vegetables，which can be taken in without the risks associated with overintake，"she added．
But the German study shows that the fat content does not cancel out the good effects-at least where small amounts are concerned．
32．How is Paragraph 2developed？B
A．By making comparisons．
B．By listing figures．
C．By analyzing causes．
D．By giving examples．
33．What health benefits does dark chocolate have？B
A．It lowers blood pressure heavily．
B．It may prevent heart attacks in a way．
C．It's useful for controlling one's weight．
D．It helps people strengthen their body．
34．What do Sara Stanner's words suggest？D
A．Eating chocolate has no health benefits．
B．Dark chocolate is not so nutritious as expected．
C．The findings of scientist's study are not scientific．
D．Eating fruits and vegetables may be a better choice．
35．What will be discussed in the following passage？A
A．Some details of the German study．
B．Benefits of fruits and vegetables．
C．Harm of overeating dark chocolate．
D．The proper amount of dark chocolate taken in．
