【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
"Some secrets are hidden from health," wrote John Updike in his poem "Fever".
I have experienced the truth of Updike's observation. My excellent health kept me from seeing some things—things that became secrets of sort.
One relates to my son Chris. When I lost my health in March, I discovered something I had missed about him.
Christopher has been a scholar and athlete through high school. He has behaved responsibly, engaged in community service. He has had an impressive peer group of serious students.
While I saw these things, I had missed before what I experienced while in hospital. Early on, Christopher offered the clearest and most forceful words about my need to be positive and to fight acute leukemia(急性白血病). He never left the room after a visit without making me promise that I would be mentally tough and positive.
During the first week, he showed his own mental toughness, researching leukemia and learning what the chances were. He even stopped my doctor outside the room, introduced himself and asked directly what he thought of my chances. He processed the answer without overreaction.
Christopher did admonish(劝告) me against my choice of words the first week at home. I had moved back into my room from weighing myself, discovering a thin figure I did not know. I announced to him and my wife, “dead man walking”. I thought it was a way to lighten the obvious. He saw it as negativity and was strongly against such thinking and talking.
When I resisted taking medicine sometimes, Christopher formed a “good-cop-bad-cop” team with his mother. Betsy gently and patiently encouraged. He directly and forcefully insisted. He always made the logical arguments for why I needed to take some awful pills.
My health had hidden something from me; my ill-health helped me to see it.
（1）What did Christopher do when the author was in hospital?
A.He told the author not to say anything wrong.
B.He offered some suggestions to the doctor.
C.He always encouraged the author to be confident.
D.He tried to get help from community service.
（2）What does “good-cop-bad-cop” in the text refer to?
A.A trick to force the author to obey.
B.A measure to keep the author happy.
C.A friendly way to make the author see what was good for him.
D.A joint effort to persuade the author both kindly and forcefully.
（3）What may be the best title for the text?
A.Lessons from Ill-health
B.Unexpected Love
C.Secrets Hidden from Health
D.Discovery Made in Hospital

【答案】
（1）C
（2）D
（3）C
【解析】John Updike在他的诗《发烧》中写道“从健康中可以隐藏着一些秘密”，当作者切身感受到了John Updike诗中所写的真相时，他发现了他的健康使他无法看到一些事情——那些成为秘密的事情

⑴细节理解题。根据文章中的“Christopher offered the clearest and most forceful words about my need to be positive and to fight acute leukemia(急性白血病)”可以得知，在作者住院的第一周，Christopher一直在鼓励作者要变得更加积极地与病魔作斗争。故选C

⑵推理判断题。由文章后面的“Betsy gently and patiently encouraged. He directly and forcefully insisted. He always made the logical arguments for why I needed to take some awful pills.”可以得知，Betsy很温柔的鼓励着作者，而Christopher一直有力的坚持着，这是为了共同鼓励作者。故选D

⑶主旨概括题。文章开头以"Some secrets are hidden from health"开始，后面的内容紧接着详细叙述了作者对于这句诗的亲身经历以及感悟。因此这篇文章的标题用“Secrets Hidden from Health”比较合适。故选C

【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
While dog keepers realize their dogs can read their moods accurately,scientists have always been a little doubtful.Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna,Austria,we finally have some convincing evidence.
For their study,biologist Corson Miller and his team exposed eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy.Half the dogs were rewarded for touching the screen when shown a happy face,while the other half got their treat for selecting those that appeared angry.
Interestingly,the dogs were not provided with the entire face.Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves.That's because the scientists believe humans show their emotions on their entire face.
After some training like how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions,the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face.The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions.
They also found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn.They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting,causing them to withdraw quickly.However,once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewarded,the trepidation seemed to disappear.In fact,the dogs had such a good time playing the computer "game" that scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was completed.
The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctl. Since the touchscreen models were all females, this confirmed what has been observed in previous studies-dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are the same gender as their owner.
（1）How did the scientists conduct the experiment?
A.By mixing the selected dogs together.
B.By leaving dogs to women who are either happy or angry.
C.By showing digital pictures of women's happy or angry faces.
D.By rewarding only half of the dogs touching the screen.
（2）Which of the following statements is TRUE about the dogs in the study?
A.The dogs were not all provided with the entire face.
B.The dogs couldn't read strangers facial emotions.
C.According to their size,the dogs were given either upper or lower halves.
D.The dogs could make out small changes accompanying facial expressions.
（3）The underlined word "trepidation" in Paragraph 5 probably means _________ .
A.curiosity
B.horror
C.excitement
D.doubt
（4）How might the results change if the dogs with female owners are shown pictures of male faces?
A.They would be scared away at the sight of the pictures.
B.They found it easy to tell the emotions on the entire face.
C.They could only tell emotions on partial faces rather than on entire faces.
D.They found it hard to tell the moods on the faces of a different gender.

A new article in The Wall Street Journal has given us a deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel.Well,not true.People with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by.To put a smile on your face with your money,you need to spend it strategically.Here are some ways to better spend your bank notes.
Buy experiences,not material things.
People think that experiences are only going to provide temporary happiness,but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value that help you better manage your life.

Anything you buy,including a product you think is special will become just another object.Buying small things can give us frequent small pleasures that are different each time they occur,as they forestall（抢先）adaptation.

It's also important to consider how what you're buying will affect how you spend your time.For example,you may have to spend a very long time on the road if you get a big house in the suburb,which will totally lower overall life satisfaction.
Try giving it away.
Elizabeth Dunn,associate professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia in Canada,found that in countries as diverse as Canada,South Africa and Uganda,giving away money consistently made people happier. A.Buy what you like.
B.Be sure to buy time,too.
C.More money,more smiles?
D.Money can't buy happiness,right?
E.Buy lots of little things,rather than one big thing.
F.With no much money to spare,people tend to stick to material goods.
G.This was even true for people who were ly poor themselves.

【题目】阅读理解
To develop one's taste in English，the most effective way is to read English books extensively. However, one may be at a loss to choose the appropriate books，especially as a beginner.I would like to share some of my experience.
My first English novel was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice，recommended by many English teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners. But I had great difficulty in understanding the novel，let alone enjoying it. It's not the vocabulary that troubled me，but rather the way Austen constructs sentences，and her way of thinking，which seemed too remote to me at that time. My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway's novel Farewell to Arms. I particularly liked his brief and lively style. So my first suggestion is，as a beginner, you'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones.
However，reading novels is not the only way to improve your English. English essays can at once inform you，entertain you, and improve your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell's work. Its language is plain, yet you cannot help feeling the elegance and the unique sense of humor. His simple language enables his philosophy(哲理) within the reach of ordinary people. Here comes my second suggestion—essays are indispensable.
Never follow other's opinions blindly，however famous or influential the person might be. As a saying goes，one man's meat is another man's poison. With that in mind，we are sure to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.
（1）What made the author's first English novel hard to understand?
A.Complex conversations.
B.Not knowing the social background.
C.The old-fashioned vocabulary.
D.Sentences and Austen's thinking pattern.
（2）Which can best replace the underlined word“ indispensable”?
A.necessary
B.challenging
C.related
D.inspired
（3）What advice does the author give in the last paragraph?
A.Choose books that challenging us most.
B.Read books that are instructive.
C.Don't be affected by other's choices.
D.Compare books before buying.
（4）What is the author's purpose of writing the passage?
A.Give comments on literature works.
B.Tell beginners how to choose English books.
C.Encourage people to read more English books.
D.Recommend first-class books to English learners.

【题目】Recently there has been a heated debate on whether the university should charge a fee to the public who use its sports field. People’s attitudes toward it vary from person to person.

Many people think that universities should serve the public, not just their professors and students. In 【1】 opinion, universities are public assets—they should serve not only the students and faculty 【2】 the general public as well. If there are too many “outside” people on the campus disturbing the order, school officials should do something to control the crowds without【3】(demand) payment. In addition, the university has many other options to control public access【4】 the campus or sports field, such as giving free access cards to 【5】 (resident) of the closest communities, or rotating a limited number of cards between residents. Charging a fee is not a fair option.

However, opponents argue that universities are not 【6】(complete) open spaces for the public to use. They hold the view that charging a fee is the most effective way of controlling access and making the most value out of the university’s resources. A high fee would filter out most of the visitors who have no desire 【7】(use) the sports field for its intended purpose. Besides, universities and their assets are expensive investments, 【8】 (fund) by the government and the public, for the education of students and 【9】 (science) research. If members of the public 【10】(want) to use these facilities, which might cause stress on the university’s resources, it will make sense that they should pay a price. They also think neighboring residents have other options for recreation, such as public parks, if they do not want to pay money to use the sports field.
