Financial efficiency.BBritons spend about £850 million a year on coffee. Drinking several cups each morning helps people to work more efficiently. Coffee is seen as the drink that makes a meal complete. But those late-night drinks could be wiring you for a sleepless night ahead, a study has shown. According to scientists, drinking two or three cups of coffee, even six hours before bedtime, could cost you up to an hour’s sleep.Researchers from Wayne State University, Michigan, followed the sleeping habits of 12 people who were given pills containing 400mg of caffeine(咖啡因)--- equal to two or three coffees. Over four days, the trial members took their doses(剂量)six and three hours before bedtime and another when they turned out the lights. One of the three daily pills was a placebo, with no caffeine in it, and on one day all three pills were placebos. The results, published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, revealed the pills made users toss and turn and lose up to an hour’s sleep—giving a warning to avoid caffeine after 5 pm.Psychiatrist Professor Christopher Dr ake, of Wayne State University, in Michigan, said, “Drinking a big cup of coffee on the way home from work can lead to negative effects on sleep just as if someone were to consume caffeine closer to bedtime. People tend to be less likely to notice the disruptive effects of caffeine on sleep when it is taken in the afternoon.”Sleep specialists have always suspected caffeine can disturb sleep long after it is consumed. This study provides objective evidence supporting the general recommendation avoiding caffeine in the late afternoon and at night is beneficial to sleep. The results suggest caffeine generally should be avoided after 5 pm in order to allow for healthy sleep.24. According to the scientists, if you drink three cups of coffee six hours before bedtime, you will probably .A. stay awake all nightB. have difficulty falling asleepC. have a late night mealD. work more efficiently25.

What is the author’s p urpose in writing the text?A. To introduce the result of a study.B. To call on readers to give up coffee.C. To show the importance of coffee in Britain.D. To inform people of the bad effects of caffeine.CLast year, my mother brought out an old college-ruled notebook: one of the journals in which she has kept a record of all the dinner parties she has hosted since 1976. I have a similar journal. But I am a writer, and she is a chemist. Mine features descriptions and feelings about the dinners I’ve host ed, while hers reads like laboratory notes--- just the meal plan and who was invited.“Salmon mousse(慕斯),” she announced, reading the first entry. “My God, I must have made that a hundred times. Do you remember them?” I did not. But I did remember that sal mon mousse.Old friends came and went in her journal. New favorites joined the menu. My husband’s name first shows up in 1997, along with a meal of just hors d’oeuvres because he loved it. My sister-in-law’s name arrived in 2006, and with it, all shellfish disappeared from family menus--- she would get sick after eating it. There is my mother’s partner, Ruth, who appeared in 1991, signaling almost five years of vegetarian(素食主义者) dishes before she gave in to my mother’s ham. And there is my farther, who, despite being her ex-husband, appeared every year after their divorce.While my mother has always written in her journal before a dinner party, I write in mine afterward. In my mother’s books, everything is clear. Hers passes from early motherhood through divorce and the deaths of friends without a break. I see her journals and am envious: By 45, I should practice with old favorites. I should have a salmon mousse.And so I am putting this decision into practice at a dinner party for writer friends. The menu is already written in my book. To start, a favorite of mine has already been cured in the fridge: salmon gravlax. And for this I must apologize to my mother: It is as close as I can get. I love you; I do. But I have always hated that salmon mousse.28.What can we know from Paragraph 3?A. The writer’s husband is a vegetarian.B. The writer’s sister-in-law is allergic（对…过敏的）to shellfish.C. Ruth didn’t like the ham made by the writer’s mom.D. The writer’s father never came back home since his divorce.29.Which statement may come from the writer’s journal?A. Salmon gravlax for writer friends.B. Thanksgiving, friends coming.C.I am glad lots of writer friends came last night.D. Tom and Lily are coming as well as Mr. Green tonight.30. How can we describe the writer’s mother?A. Considerate and strong-willed.B. Stubborn but organized.C. Outgoing and generous.D. Warm-hearted but insincere.31 .Why does the author write this passage?A. To show her love for her mother.B. To put her decision into practice.C. To compare two different journals.D. To express her hate for salmon mousse.DWashington D.C. is a city full of museums. Visitors have a large choice of places to go to learn about United States history, culture and art. The latest one to open in Washington is the Museum of the Bible. The 40,000-square-meter building is located near the U.S. Capitol, the National Mall and several Smithsonian museums. Unlike most major museums in Washington, the $500 million Museum of the Bible was not financed by the government.Museum officials have said the institution is not intended to represent the views of any particular religious or political group. They noted that more than 100 scholars representing a variety of groups helped design all exhibits in the museum. Green says the goal of the museum is to educate people, not preach to them. “There’s just a basic need for people to read the book,” he told reporters. “We ju st want to present the facts and let visitors decide.”The Museum collection also includes several first editions of the King James Bible and early versions from Christian Reformation leader Martin Luther. Also shown are a large collection from the Dead Sea Scrolls, and what the museum describes as the “world’s largest collection of Torah scrolls” covering more than 700 years of history.Visitors enter the museum through a dramatic 12-meter-tall bronze entrance containing writing from the first book of the Bible, Genesis. One museum official said about the design, "when you walk in, you’re really walking into the Bible.” There is no cost to visit the museum, but if you like you can give some money to support its operation while visiting.However, some religious scholars have questioned whether the museum provides a balanced view of the Bible and religious history. Joel Baden is a professor at Yale Divinity School and co-author of the book Bible Nation. He told Reuters the museum leaves out some important history relating to other major world religions.” They are telling a story of the Bible that is a particularly American Protestant one.” He said little attention was given to Roman Catholics, Jews, Muslims and Mormons.32. Why is the new Bible Museum different from most major museums in Washington?A. It was not financed by the government.B. It could help learn the history of Bible.C. It took up more room than others.D. It is located near the U. S. Capitol.33. What does Paragraph 2 mainly want to tell us about the new museum?A. Its wonderful future.B. Its original purpose.C. Its powerful influence.D. Its present situation.34. What is special about visiting the new Bible Museum?A. The admission fee is required.B. A guide is suggested.C. A souvenir must be bought.D. Donations are encouraged.35. What is Joel Baden’s attitude towards the new Bible Museum?A. Favorable.B. Indifferent.C. Skeptical.D. Unconcerned.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

If we are wise, we accept these failures as a 36 part of the learning process. But alltoo often as parents and teachers we disallow this 37 right to our children.When I see a child 38 to this kind of pressure, I think ofDonnie.Donnie was my youngest third grader.

Five yearsago, however, all Tanam could do was to stay in bed until noon, and then stareat the sky through the window, waiting for his parents’ return.His mother Yangzom saidshe had no other choice but to lock him in the house every day as she and herhusband had to work and they did not want to allow the boy to roam(闲逛) thestreets.〝Every day when I cameback home and saw my lonely poor son, I felt my heart hurt. But now I canfinally feel a bit relieved,〞 the mother said. She said it was the school thatchanged his son. 〝Without the school, I dared not imagine how my son would benow.〞With a governmental fundof 4.5 million yuan, the special education school was founded in 2000. The onlygovernment-run school for handicapped children in Tibet, it now has 28 teachersand 120 school children in nine classes of 5 grades. Eight classes in the school are for deaf kids and the other one is for blind kids.Students can enjoy freefood, boarding, clothing and medical services in the school, which is open todeaf and blind children from all over the autonomous region.Tibetan sign languageand Tibetan braille are basic courses here. Children also have Tibetan, Chinese, mathematics, science, painting, dancing and sports lessons.A 〝black and white〞te_tbook seemed appealing among the colorful books in Tanam’s schoolbag. Thete_t was handwritten.It was the Tibetanlanguage te_tbook compiled and written by teachers themselves.〝As te_tbooks forstudents in ordinary schools sometimes are too abstract and hard for our kidsto understand, two other Tibetan language teachers and I compiled the te_tbookto make things easier for them,〞 said teacher Dawa.Those books with the love of all the teachers,though not spoke out, will surely help children enjoy their life by supportingthemselves after leaving the school.56.

Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and theresulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fi_their attention on the convenience of things. The pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy thinkand speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt)manypeople, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind wasfounded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. Theintention of criticizing (批评)andbeing disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模仿).It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong , butit may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on theirinterests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, andhelp them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly anact of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deepsorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and noone treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aimat getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes themsuccess. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. Ifthey bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or e_cuse them,and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this badhabit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly aboutthemselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid anycontact (接触)with them. Otherwise, it can bedisagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mi_edup in their quarrels.60．〝The phrase〝sourthe pleasure of society〞most nearly means________.A. have a good taste with sociallife B. makeothers unhappyC. tend to scold others openlyD. enjoy the pleasure of life61．We can conclude from the passagethat________.A. we should pity all such unhappypeople B.such unhappy people are dangerous to social lifeC. people can get rid of the habitof unhappiness D. unhappy people cannot understand happy persons62．If such unhappy persons insist on keeping thehabit , the author suggests that people should ___.A. prevent any communication withthem B.show no respect and politeness to themC. persuade them to recognize thebad effects D.quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes63．In this passage, the writer mainly________.A. describes two types of peopleB. laughs at the unhappy peopleC. suggests ways to help them unhappyD.tells people how to be happy in lifeCThe publication of ;Harry Potter andthe Half-Blood Prince; gladdens booksellers across China. The British and American editions were No. 1 and No. 3 respectively on the sales chart of theBeijing _idan Book Building last week. The book’s poster is highlighted andnews about the book can often be heard on the radio.Why is the book so attractive tochildren? With curious mood, the author got a copy of ;Harry Potter;. Originally, I wanted to glance over it and made some criticisms. But, out ofe_pectation, the author has been deeply attracted by the magic world. On theother hand, one cannot help asking: where is our own ;Harry Potter;?The Chinese nation has a history of 5,000years, which cannot be regarded as short and its culture as not profound. Witha vast market of youngsters, China did publish many books popular among children. However, why are the present works not as good as those imported?There come two major reasons: Firstly,quite a number of children’s books are of strong sense of teaching, and lackinterest and entertainment. Children often have a feeling of being;educated;. No wonder they don’t like them. Secondly, children’s reading materials involving ;idiom stories; and ;Chinesetalents’ stories;, though always in different covers, are usually much thesame or plagiarized. One knows the ending as early as in the beginning. Infinal analysis, the authors of the books seldom take children’s requirementsinto consideration.As a matter of fact, each child has hisown wonderful imagination. They long to understand the world and nature. Similarly they have their own choices. They dislike similar stories, even ifthe stories are e_cellent. First-class reading for children should be very interesting, which contains knowledge and the essence of national culture, which are presented in children’s language.Market is a touchstone for products. Thetheory also holds true for cultural products. It is hoped that the authors ofchildren’s books can learn something from the good market of ;Harry Potter; and write out more and better books loved by children.64.The disadvantages of our books are the following e_cept____A. they have little sense ofinterest and entertainmentB. many of our books are ofthe sameC. the authors didn’t pay muchattention to the children’s tastes.D. Our authors never know whatour children need.65.The reason why the imported book is so popular is that _____.A. it has no sense of teachingB.it opens a wonderful world for children to e_ploreC. it is only written inchildren’s language D.it is advertised more on TV or poster.66.What’s the feeling of the writer when he finishes reading 〝Harry Potter〞?A. He is so angry that hewants to criticize the bookB. He is also attracted by thebookC. He is shocked by the book,meanwhile he is worried about our books.D. He can’t help looking forHarry Potter.67.What does the writer mean by writing 〝where’s our own Harry Potter〞?A. We are short of books forchildrenB. We Chinese must producebooks as popular as 〝Harry Potter〞.C. Authors should write booksin the same way as 〝Harry Potter〞D. Our authors are hoped tomake the market of our books for children take offDPeaceful Useof Space Resources Drives China’s Space ProgramChina’s successful launchof its second manned spacecraft Shenzhou-6 has drawn worldwide applause. It hasbecome the third nation in the world capable of putting men into space.It is widely believedhome abroad that the latest progress made by China will surely improve nationalcohesiveness(内聚性)and make the country’s 1.3 billion people more confident in their future in terms of social and economic progress.However, some people inand outside China describe China’s manned space program as a prestige project which yields little economic benefit.They argue that billionsof US dollars spent on the decade-old space program may be better used for poverty relief and education as millions of Chinese still have a poor living and many children cannot afford basic schooling. However, mankind does need to make use of space resources for sustainable human development.Space technology hasbecome increasingly important for the e_ploration and peaceful use of space resources due to the shrinking reserve of natural resources on the Earth.Lunar reserve of isotopehelium 3 is sufficient for human need for about 10,000 years, which is attractive to the mankind being troubled by high oil prices and limited oilreserve.China has benefited fromthe dividend of its investment in space sector. Space technology has become anindispensable part of people’s daily life, such as weather forecast, telecommunications, disaster reduction, and resources prospecting.Striving hard to feedits 1.3 billion people and more in the future, China has been developing improved species of crops on the basis of space technology, mostly through recoverable satellites and spacecraft.Information obtainedfrom Shenzhou-3 and Shenzhou-4 in Earth observation has been used for maritime(海上的) pollutioncontrol and desertification(沙漠化) control projects,which is useful for China and other parts of the world.China has listed spacetechnology and information technology among the country’s seven high-tech fields in its national high-tech research and development program initiated in1986.68. Whichpoint of view may the author not agree to?A. The successful launchis significant to the development of our country.B. The successful launchproves that our space technology is advanced in the world.C. Though the launch issuccessful, it benefits little in term of economy.D. It’s necessary toe_plore resources in space.69. Some people thinkChina’s manned space program yields little economic benefits as they think about the following e_cept _____.A. there are many poorareas in China lacking supports.B. many children can’tgo to school because of poverty.C. it will delay theprogress of economy.D. it costs too much onthe space program.70. Whichsupports the idea of the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?A. Resources are shrinkingall over the world B.There are enough useful resources for human use.C. The mankind isworrying about less and less oil resource D.All above71.What does the underlined word 〝prestige〞 perhaps mean in the3rd paragraph?A. fameB.success C.failure D.prideESuppose you work in a big firm andfind English very important for your job because you often deal with foreign businessmen.

On the other hand, one cannot help asking: where is our own ;Harry Potter;?说明作者被书所震惊,同时不得不深思.67. D第三段的China did publish many books popularamong children.说明中国并非缺乏图书可以排除A选项.B,C相对于D项意义狭窄.文章的最后一句是总的概括,希望中国的作者们能够像;Harry Potter;一样拥有市场.It is hoped that the authors ofchildren’s books can learn something from the good market of ;Harry Potter; and write out more and better books loved by children.所以选D 为正确答案.68. C 第一段的It has becomethe third nation in the world capable of putting men into space.说明B 项正确;阅读文章可知在第三段提到some people的观点……whichyields little economic benefit.,不是作者的观点;第二段符合A项叙述的内容;第四段最后一句However, mankinddoes need to make use of space resources for sustainable human development.说明D项正确.所以答案为C.69. C 第四段第一句billions ofUS dollars spent on the decade-old space program may be better used for povertyrelief and education as millions of Chinese still have a poor living and manychildren cannot afford basic schooling.包含了A.B.D三个选项的内容,some people并没有说太空计划会延误经济的发展,所以C符合提问要求.70.

AMadame Marie Curie famously won two Nobel Prizes, but many other women have also been awarded the prize, too. Here are their stories.Selma LagerlofSelma Lagerlof was a Swedish author and teacher. She published her first novel, Gosta Berling’s Saga, at the age of 33. She was the first female writer to win the Nobel Prize in Literature which she was awarded in 1909. Additionally, she was the first female to be granted membership in the Swedish Academy.Gerty Theresa CoriGerty and her husband, Carl Cori, met in Prague and lived in Austria before immigrating to the United States in 1922, where the two medical doctors worked together at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in New York. In 1947, Gerty and Carl were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, making Gerty Cori the first woman to hold the honor.Maria Goeppert-MayerIn 1942, Maria Goeppert-Mayer joined the Manhattan Project. From there, she moved on to Los Alamos National Laboratory, then to Argonne National Laboratory, where Goeppert-Mayer developed the nuclear shell model. For this, she shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics with J. Hans D．Jensen and Eugene Paul Wigner. Dorothy Crowfoot HodgkinDorothy Hodgkin’s mother encouraged her love of science as a child, and at age 18, she began studying chemistry at a women-only Oxford college. Her work on mapping vitamin B12 earned her the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1964.1．What is Selma Lagerlof noted for in history?A．Her books. B．Her medicine.C．Her political works. D．Her teaching skills.2．Who was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine? A．Selma Lagerlof B．Gerty Theresa Cori.C．Maria Goeppert-Mayer D．Dorothy Growfoot Hodgkin3．When did Dorothy Growfoot Hodgkin win her the Nobel Prize in Chemistry? A．In 1922. B．In 1942.C．In 1963. D．In 1964.BFinland is the happiest place on Earth, according to the 2018 World Happiness Report of 156 nations.The report, released Wednesday by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Solutions Network, ranks the countries of the world based on six different categories of well-being: income, freedom, trust, life expectancy, generosity and social support. This year's report also pays special attention to the happiness of each country’s immigrants.The U.S. dropped four spots from 2017 and landed in 18th place, and last year’s winner, Norway, came in second place —followed by Denmark, Iceland and Switzerland. “The top five countries all have almost equally high values for the six factors found to support happiness, and four of these countries—Denmark, Switzerland, Norway and now Finland —have been in first place in the six World Happiness Report rankings since the first report" in 2012, ”co-editor John Helliwell told CNN. “In a division with such excellent teams, changes in the top spot are to be expected."Rounding out the top 10 happiest countries was Canada in sixth place, then New Zealand, Sweden and Australia. The order of the top 10 nations changed from the 2017 list but the countries did not, according to the report. They were also 10 of the 11 top spots in the immigrant happiness category (including Mexico —24th overall, but 10th in immigration).“The most striking finding of the report is the remarkable consistency betweenthe happiness of immigrants and the locally born,” Helliwell said in a statement. “Although immigrants come from countries with very different levels of happiness, their reported life evaluations resemble those of other residents in their new countries. Those who move to happier countries gain, while those who move to less happy countries lose.”Other major world powers placed in significantly low spots on the list.

Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks."The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of its components is off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own’ said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings hasa number of interdependencies (相互依赖）on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it d connected to,” said Wood.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites，in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. "Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around，” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power,sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications.“You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animal，but using these robots instead” he said. "So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day-to-day basis.”4. What is the typical characteristic of the robotic fly?A. It's automatic.B.It's very small.C. It's controllable.D. It's quite powerful.5. We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can____ .A. act as a spy planeB. help do farm workC.fly at a very high speedD. answer many scientific questions6. What is Wood's idea about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph?A. It is highly questionable.B. It has wide practical applications.C. It gives scientists interest in flying machines.D. It points to a new direction in studying biology.7. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Harvand's Study in the Field of Insects.B. A Breakthrough in Engineering ScienceC. An Interesting Invention一Robotic FlyD. Robotic Fly一a Copy of Real Life InsectCIf there is no difference in general intelligence between boys and girls, what can explain girls’ poor performance in science and math?It hasbeen suggested that girls do not take math courses, not because they are difficult, but for social reasons. Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine (女性的) and attractive (有魅力的).However, there are still more high-achieving boys than girls when taking math exams. This difference appears to be worldwide. Biological explanations have been offered for this, but there are other explanations too.Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences. From their first days in kindergarten, boys are encouraged to work on their own and to complete tasks. Facts showthat outstanding mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who gave answers.Besides, there can be little doubt that teachers of math and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students. They even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls. They spend more time with the boy students, giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them. They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom discussion. They also praise boys more frequently. All of this seems to encourage boys to work harder in science and math and to give them confidence that they are able to succeed.Such a way of teaching is not likely to encourage girls to take many math and science courses, nor is it likely to support girls who do. When it comes to these subjects it seems certain that school widens the difference between boys and girls.8. Why does the author raise a question in paragraph 1?A. To find differences between boys and girls.B. To explain the poor performance of girls.C. To ask readers a question.D. To introduce the topic.9. The text mainly discusses ________ reasons for the difference between boys and girls in scientific achievements.A. biologicalB. personalC. socialD. historical10. What does the text say about great mathematicians?A. Their teachers did not offer answers to them.B. They started learning math at an earlier age.C. They showed mathematical abilities in their teenage years.D. Their success resulted from their strong interest in math.11. The author would probably agree that ________.A. boys and girls learn in the same wayB. boys and girls are equal in general intelligenceC. girls are more confident in themselves than beforeD. girls should take fewer science courses than boysDWe all use different ways to remember ideas, facts and things we need to store. Remembering is anextremely important part of our learning experience. Information process, storage and recall encourage purposeful learning.But the brain doesn’t store everything we want or need for future use. It makes choices and tends to remember information that forms a memorable pattern. Things you learned recently can be particularly difficult to remember because they haven’t taken root in your mind.“Forgetting allows us to remember what is really important to our survival. We forget much of what we read, watch, and think directly every day.” writes John Medina in his book, Brain Rules.How do you avoid losing 90%of what you’ve learned? An inspiring writer and speaker Zig Ziglar once said: “Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action, which makes it the architect of accomplishment.”Repetition has been a remembering skill for ages. When you hear or read something once，you don’t really learn it-at least not well enough to store the new information for long. The right kind of repetition can do wonders for your memory. People learn or remember better by repeating things or getting exposed to information many times. Othersrepeat particular steps or processes deliberately a number of times or even years to become better at certain skills.Daniel Coyle explains in his book, The Little Book of Talent:“...closing the book and writing a summary, even short ones, forces you to figure out the key points, process and organize those ideas so they make sense, and write them on the page. When you pick it back up weeks later, reread all of your notes or highlights to strengthen the ideas even further.”People learn by repeating things. Better learning is a repetition process. Every time we repetitively access something we already know, we increase the memory’s stored value.12. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. The brain tends to store 90% of the things we learn.B. The fresher the information isthe easier to remember.C. Thinking is more important than remembering in study.D. The brain tends to choose and keep what it thinks important.13. How does the writer prove his opinion?A.By giving examples.B. By listing numbers.C. By borrowing words of experts.D. By providing scientific finding.14. What does Daniel Coyle want to say in his book?A. You can’t pay too much attention to repetition.B. Summarizing is a very effective learning tool.C. Forgetting forces human brain to make choices.D. Regular repetition helps to form good habits.15. Which do you think is the best title of the passage?A. How the Brain WorksB. Reading for MoreC. Fighting Against ForgettingD. Repeat to Remember第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

When her daughter started crying even before takc-off her fears for the flight —to surprise her husband, a US Army soldier at Fort Rucker Alabama — seemed acceptable.The couple seated next to her reacted just as Rebekka Garvison had feared, looking visibly unhappy about sitting next to a fussy(难以取悦的）baby. Ms. Garvison moved to a new seat, hoping it would help. When the baby's cries continued, the woman sitting next to her asked if she could try.Garvison later described in a grateful Facebook post how the woman, Nyfesha Miller, had the magic touch with her baby. "As soon as she had her, Rylee was looking out the window and stopped crying," Garvison recalled. "When we got in the air she fell right asleep and slept in her lap the whole flight until we got to our gate? Garvison told The Huffington Post she has been in touch with Ms. Miller almost daily since the flight.Garvison's post has been shared more than 84,000 times. and received hundreds of warm comments. "Years ago. the same kind of thing happened to me," wrote one mother. "it was a seven-hour flight and I had my ten-month-old little boy with me. A nun （修女）was sitting beside me and she walked him up and down the passage when he got fussy.It was such a relief for me and is something I will never forget."Not everyone has had happy experiences with baby air travelers. One airline is considering opening a "baby class" for airplanes with flight attendant nannies（保姆）,reported The Christian Science Monitor's Meredith Hamilton. For now. parents can hope to be seated beside someone like Ms. Miller on their next flight. "Nyfesha Miller, you will never understand how happy this act of kindness has made my fanuly."wrote Garvison.1. Why did Garvison move to a new scat?A. She could have a better view.B.
