the sahara desert is the largest desert in the world. it stretches across africa from senegal to egypt. the sahara desert is an unfriendly environment. during the day its very hot, and at night its sometimes very cold. it is also difficult to find water in the sahara. in 2006, kevin lin, ray zahab, and charlie engle decided to do something very difficult. they made the decision to run across the sahara desert 4,300 miles (6,920km). it seemed impossible to do, but they wanted to try. the three men liked to test themselves, and this would be a very big test. on the morning of november 2, kevin, ray, and charlie started their trip across the sahara. every morning they began running at 5:00. at11 a.m. they stopped and rested until 5 p.m. then they ran again until 9:30 in the evening. each day they ran about 40 miles (64 km). every day it was the same thing. they got up and ran. they listened to music on their ipods, and they ran and ran. kevin, ray, and charlie needed to eat a lot of food during their trip. most people need about 2,000 calories of food each day. kevin, ray, and charlie needed between 6,000 and 9,000 calories every day. thats a lot of food! they also needed to drink a lot of water. the three men had some problems on their trip, and many times they wanted to quit and go home. it was often very hot (140f/60c) during the day, and the heat made them sick. their legs and feet hurt. sometimes it was very windy, and they couldnt see. one time they got lost. but they didnt quit. after 111 days, kevin, ray; and charlie successfully finished their trip across the

a文中讲到三人上午11点停下来休息一直到下午5点再继续跑，所以在一天的中午，他们停止跑步。题干表述正确。4. a原文中讲到高温使他们生病。所以题干表述正确。5. a文中提到有时刮起大风导致他们什么也看不到，所以他们会因为起风而看不到路。题干表述正确。6. b文中最后一段讲到他们有一次迷路了，所以不是从来没有迷路。题干表述不正确。7. c文中只提到他们跨越沙漠的长度，并没有提到穿过几个国家。所以，题干表述文中没有提到。综合c补全短文新增文章 第三篇 the value of tears tears can ruin make-up, bring conversation to a stop, and give you a runny nose. they can leave you embarrassed and without energy. however, crying is a fact of lifeand tears are very useful. _ (1) these create a film over the eyes surface. this film contains a substance that protects your eyes against infection. tears relieve stress, but we tend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. people worry about showing their emotions. theyre afraid that once they lose control, theyll never get it back,” explains psychologist dorothy rowe. _ (2) as adults we still fear the consequences of showing emotions. almost any emotion good or bad, happy or sad can cause tears. crying is a way that we release built-up emotions. tears help you when you feel you are ready to explode because of very strong feelings. _ (3) when some people become very stressed, however, they cant cry. they may be feeling shock, anger, fear, or grief, but they repress the emotion. “everyone has the need to cry,” says psychotherapist vera diamond. sometimes in therapy sessions, patients participate in crying exercise _ (4) diamond says its best to cry in safe, private places, like under the bedcovers or in the car. thats because many people get uncomfortable when others cry in front of them. in fact, they may be repressing their own need to cry. in certain situations, such as at work, tears are not appropriate. _ (5) “but once you are safely behind closed doors, dont just cry,” diamond says, she suggests that you act out the whole situation again and be as noisy and angry as you like. it will help you feel better. “and,” she adds, “once your tears have released the stress, you can begin to think of logical way to deal with the problem.” tears are a sign of our ability to feel. you should never be afraid to cry. 词汇 make-up n. 化妆（品） psychotherapist n. 心理治疗师 runny nose 流鼻涕 infection n. 感染，传染 release v. 释放 built

d此空的上一句讲到眼泪很有用，后一句讲到眼泪的具体用处，并且句首是these，所以所填的这句应该有眼泪，根据上下文只有选项d最适合。选项c与前一句话意思重复。2. f下文提到作为成人，我们仍然害怕流泪，所填的这句应该讲我们还是孩子时对流泪的恐惧。所以，答案是选项f。3. a上文讲到哭能够帮助我们发泄心中的强烈情感，所以经常哭的人会比不常哭的人获得某种益处，根据上下文，只有选项a比较贴切。4. e上文提到患者要练习哭，这里应该讲练习哭的原因。所以，答案是选项e。5. b上一句提到在某些场合哭是不合适的，所以此处也应该具体解释不适合哭的场景，答案是选项b。综合c阅读理解新增文章 第六篇 native american pottery there are several american indian groups in the southwest that still make beautiful pottery. some of this pottery may be sold at fairly high prices. but the makers consider their work as more than a commercial enterprise. by using methods handed down for generations, the potters express their pride in their cultural inheritance. some of the most interesting pottery is made by the pueblo indians. there are 21 individual pueblos in arizona and new mexico. several are famous for their craftsmanship. to make a pot, these potters use a clay base and add long thin coils of clay to it in a spiral pattern. when they have reached the size they want, they use an implement such as a rock or shell to smooth the surfaces of the pot. how a pot is decorated and fired depends on the traditions of the group making it. traditional pottery produced by the acoma, who have lived for centuries on a high mesa in new mexico, is first painted with a clay slip. the resulting pots: which are prized for their delicacy and strength, may be left white. they may also be painted with black and white patterns or with a combination of black, orange, and brown. very distinctive black pottery comes from the san ildefonso and santa clara pueblos. the black color is the result of carbon being released from the animal manure in which the pot is fired. some artisans hand rub this ware to a shiny gloss. others cut patterns into it: resulting in a part shiny: part fiat surface. potters at sail ildefonso make many types of wares. potters at santa clara are especially known for wedding jars-jars with two necks connected by a handle. other groups such as the hopi and the cochiti also make pottery. each group uses distinctive methods and produces distinctive forms and designs. 词汇 pottery n. 陶器 distinctive adj. 特别的，有特色的 enterprise n. 事业，产业，实业 inheritance n. 遗产 manure n. 肥料，粪肥

beyond fashion: it is the distinctive way we put ourselves together. it is a unique blend of spirit and substance-personal identity imposed oil and created through the world of things. _ (1) it is what people really want when they aspire to be fashionable. (if they arent just adorning themselves in status symbols). through clothes, we reinvent ourselves every time we get dressed. our wardrobe is our visual vocabulary. style is our distinctive pattern of speech, our individual poetry. fashion is the least of it. style is, for starters, one part identity: self-awareness and self-knowledge. _ (2) and style requires security-feeling at home in your body, physically and mentally. of course, like all knowledge, self-knowledge must be updated as you grow evolve; style takes ongoing self-assessment. style is also one part personality: spirit: verve, attitude, wit, inventiveness. it demands the desire and confidence to express whatever mood one wishes. such variability is not only necessary but a reflection of a persons unique complexity as a human being. _ (3) in order to work, style must reflect the real self, the character and personality of the individual; anything less appears to be a costume? lastly, style is one part fashion. its possible to have lots of clothes and not an ounce of style. but its also possible to have very few clothes and lots of style. yes, fashion is the means through which we express style, but it takes fewer clothes to be stylish than you might imagine. whatever else it is, style is optimism made visible. style presumes that you are a person of interest: that the world is a place of interest that life is worth making the effort for. it also shows that you are morally responsible. it shows that you dont buy things at the whim of the marketplace or the urging of marketers. _ (4) style exposes peoples ambivalence over good looks. it always demonstrates that appearances do count. deep down we suspect this, since we ourselves make judgments about others from how they look. no one should be penalized for not having style, of course, but those who have it are distinctive and thus more memorable. _ (5) they announce to the world that they are in command of themselves. 词汇 adorn v.装饰，使更美观wardrobe n. (个人的）全部服装suspect v.怀疑，猜想wit n.风趣，说话风趣的人blend v.混在一起，混合ambivalencen.矛盾心理，矛盾心态注释 1. aspire to be fashionable:渴望赶上时尚潮流2. an ounce of style: 一丁点的风格3.at the whim of:心血来潮（突发奇想）练习 a it is a way of capturing something vibrant, making a statement about ourselves in clothes. b fashion is part of style. c rather, you focus on what is personally suitable and expressive. d you cant have style until you have a sense of who you are. e they create a unique identity for themselves and express it through grooming and a few well-chosen clothes. f people want to be themselves and to be seen as themselves. 答案与题解 a第一段都在解释什么是风格，六个选项中a、b、d三项都涉及风格，根据文章内容和句式的排比可以看出答案是选项a。d本段的主旨句是第二句话，本句是对主旨句的阐释，讲风格与自我认知的关系。只有选项d符合。f本段的主旨句是第一句话，全段在解释风格与个性的关系。所以，只有选项f符合。c前一句在讲有风格的人不是心血来潮，可以推测此处应该讲有风格的人应该是如何的。只有选项c的句意与其对照，且符合整个段意。所以，正确答案是选项c。e前一句讲有风格的人是独特的，因此也更容易被人记住，选项e在解释他们是通过什么方式做到这一点的。所以，选项e符合本段段意。综合b阅读理解新增文章 第二十四篇 the romance of arthur most cultures have some sort of hero who represents the best values of what its people believe in. the unusual thing about king arthur is that legends of his heroism have persisted for several centuries and spread far beyond england, the place where they began. the earliest stories of king arthur represent him as a warrior who fought and subdued the invading norsemen in the years around a. d. 700. this much of the arthurian tale is probably based on fact. whether called arthur or not, there is a body of evidence supporting the existence of such a warrior. it is the later embellishments of the tale whose authenticity is questionable. according to these, arthur was born in a castle in tintagel on the stormy western coast of england and because he was the illegitimate son of king uther pendragon, he was spirited away by the magician merlin and his true identity kept from him. he became king after freeing the sword excalibur from the stone into which it was thrust. he married the beautiful guinevere and assembled in his court all the noblest knights of the land, including lancelot, with whom guinevere would later be unfaithful to him. he was finally defeated in battle by his illegitimate son mordred, and his body was spirited away to the isle of a valon. this romantic tale greatly appealed to the english and the french in the middle ages, when the code of chivalry-ideal qualities of knighthood-constituted an important part of many stories. tales of the heroism of galahad, percival, gawain, and many other of arthurs knights were circulated as well. in england today, there are many sites claiming a piece of the arthurian an legend. there is a mined castle at tintagel. near glastonbury are the remains of an ancient abbey where arthurs and guineveres bodies were supposedly exhumed in the 12th century. neither of these proves that the legend is true, but they do keep its mystique alive. 词汇： arthur n.亚瑟（中世纪传奇故事中的不列颠国王，圆桌骑士团的首领）authenticity n.可靠性，真实性spirit v.偷偷地带走；拐走；绑架warrior n. 战士，勇士chivalry n. 骑士subdue v. 制服，慑服embellishment n. 美化，修饰mystique n. 神秘气氛注释 1. this much of the arthurian tale：许多这类亚瑟王的故事 2. .was spirited away by 被偷偷地带走 练习 1. king arthurs famer was _ a. lancelot b. avalon c. mordred d. uther pendragon 2. the writer seems to feel that the truth about arthur is that he _. a. existed b. was married to guinevere c. had many knights d. was born at tintagael 3. the information in the second paragraph is mostly presented in _. a. spatial order b. order from latest to earliest c. order from earliest to latest d. order from least persuasive 4. in the last paragraph the word “exhumed” means _ a. dug up from the grave b. buried c. quarreled over d. built a church around 5. another good title for this passage would be _ a. kings in the seventh century b. the knights of the round table c. real or legend? d. arthurs marriage to guinevere. 综合a补全短文新增文章 第十二篇 men smell of cheese and women of onions little girls may be made of sugar and all things nice, but their armpits1 smell of onions. _ (1) thats the conclusion of research in switzerland that involved taking armpit sweat samples from 24 men and 25 women after he had spent time in a sauna or ridden an exercise bike for 15 minute. _ (2) “men smell of cheese, and women of grapefruit or onion,” says christian starkenmann of firmenich, a company in geneva that researches flavours and perfumes for food and cosmetics companies. the team found that the womens armpit sweat constrained relatively high levels of an odourless sulphur-containning compound 5 milligrams per milliliter of sweat versus 0.5 milligrams in men. when the researchers mixed this compound in the lab with bacteria commonly found in the armpit, the bugs turned it into a thiol - a previously discovered odour from armpits that is akin to onion2. “the more sulphur precursor we added, the more intense was the malodour,” says starkenm
