cold-blooded killerFor example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killerHe seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someones life as nothingCold can affect other parts of the bodyThe expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feetThe expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to doFor example, you agree to be president of an organizationBut then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organization will be your responsibilityYou are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.The expression “give someone the cold shoulder” probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to faceYou may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to youOr, to someone who has lied about you to othersA cold fish is not a fishIt is a personBut it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmthA cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyoneSomeone who is a cold fish could be cold-heartedNow a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathySeveral popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their loversOut in the cold means not getting something that everybody else gotA person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise-he was left out in the coldAnd it is not a pleasant place to be26There are _ expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passageA3 B4 C6 D727When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by “_”AI give him the cold shoulder BI think he is a cold-blooded manCI think he is a cold fish DIm likely to get cold feet28If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will say _Ashe is a cold-blooded killer Bshe gets cold feetCshe is a cold fish Dshe is out in the cold29We can use the expression “_” to describe a man who abandons or hurts his lover without mercyAcold-blooded Bcold shoulder Ccold feet Dcold-hearted30The topic of this passage is about _Athe relationship between cold and our bodyBsome expressions about friendshipCsome expressions connected with coldDhow cold weather comes into beingBNot all think laughter is the best medicine, but it seems to helpSo scientists carried on a new study of diabetes （糖尿病） patients who were given a good dose of humor for a year to prove itResearchers divide 20 high-risk diabetic patients into two groupsBoth groups were given standard diabetes medicineGroup L viewed 30 minutes of humor of their choice, while Group C, the control group, did notThis went on for a year of treatmentsBy two months into the study, the patients in the laughter group had lower level of the hormones epinephrine （肾上腺素）, considered to cause stress, which is known to be deadlyAfter the 12 months, HDL cholesterol rises 26 percent in Group L but only 3 percent in Group CIn another measure, C-reactive proteins, a maker of heart disease, drop 66 percent in the laughter group but only 26 percent in the control group“The best doctors believe that there is a physical good brought about by the positive emotion, happy laughter,” said study leader Lee Berk of Loma Linda UniversityAnd other research has found that humor makes us more hopefulStill, more study is needed, Berk saidThe research by Berk found that humor can bring about similar changes in body chemistry, which was proved in the new studyThe research result will be presented this month at the meeting in the USResearch at the University of Maryland School of Medicine shows that laughter causes the inner lining of blood vessels to expand, increasing blood flow in a way thought to be healthy“Lifestyle choices have an important effect on health and these are choices which we and patients should pay attention to, rather than prevention and treatment,” Berk said in a statement this week31Why did the scientists carry on the new research?ATo find out if laughter was good to healthBTo discover the best medicine to cure diabetesCBecause the number of diabetic patients is the largest in the worldDBecause diabetic patients need more laughter than other patients32After 12 months into the study, _AC-reactive proteins increase 66 percent in Group CBthe level of the hormones epinephrine stays the same in both groupsCthe level of the hormones epinephrine has droppedDC-reactive proteins reduced 66 percent in Group L33The underlined part “HDL cholesterol” in Paragraph 3 must be _Asomething bad to our health Bsomething good to our healthCa kind of wonderful medicine Da kind of dangerous disease34In what way does laughter benefit peoples health?ABlood is made thick by laughter BLaughter makes blood vessels thinCLaughter increases blood pressureDLaughter makes blood flow fast35According to Berk, we should _Achoose lifestyles carefully Bchange our lifestylesCprevent our lifestyles in advance Dpay less attention to the positive emotionCA good friend of mine was complaining about her son the other day“Did you notice,” she started, “how he didnt wait for me to get my salad before he dove into his?”True enough, the boy attacked his plate faster than a cat in the wildWithout manners, were no more than animalsActually, thats not trueIve been watching and feeding a group of wild cats, and they show unusual politeness toward each otherEven when food is scarce, they take turns, leaving at least a small part for the next in lineMy mother educated her three children to have good manners all the timeWe were made to feel very uncomfortable as if we were sitting on pins and needles until we got used to saying please, thank you, pardon me, and Im sorryAnd I have to say, while it was a painful learning experience, it was one of the most valuableI cant tell you how often I sat with my friends, eating at their dinner tables, and their parents thought highly of my good mannersWhile it was a little embarrassing, I knew even then that my mothers teachings were paying off36What did the writers friend most probably complain about?AHer sons eating too quickly BHer sons not having a healthy dietCHer sons not having good table mannersDTeenagers not having good manners37The underlined word “scarce” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_”Atoo much Bnot delicious Cnot enough Dquite hot38We learn that the writers mother _Awas strict about her childrens manners Bnever punished her childrenChad beautiful blue eyes Dwas not good at singing39What does the writer think of her experience of learning good manners?AEasy and relaxing BPainful and valuableCEasy but useless DToo horrible40We can infer from the passage that the writer _Ais surely liked by everyone around herBis not satisfied with most peoples manners around herCthinks she has been a perfect example to the youngDthanks her mother for teaching her the good manners a lotDAsk someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recyclingRecycling in the home is very important of courseHowever, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we needWe are dealing with the results of that overconsumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place The total amount of packaging has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005It now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the UKIn many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environmentThe UK, for example, is running out of it for burying this unnecessary wasteIf such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effectRecycling helps, but the process itself uses energyThe solution is not to produce such items in the first placeFood waste is a serious problem, tooToo many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they needHowever, few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example But this is not just about supermarketsIt is about all of usWe have learned to associate packaging with qualityWe have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor qualityThis is especially true of foodBut it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary There are signs of hopeAs more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary materials are collectedWe need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb41What does the underlined phrase “that over-consumption” refer to?AUsing too much packaging BRecycling too many wastesCMaking more products than necessaryDHaving more material than is needed42The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _ Athe tendency of cutting household waste Bthe increase of packaging recycling Cthe rapid growth of supermarkets Dthe fact of packaging overuse43According to the text, recycling _ Ahelps control the greenhouse effect Bmeans burning packaging for energy Cis the solution to gas shortage Dleads to a waste of land44What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? AUnpackaged products are of bad quality BSupermarkets care more about packaging CIt is improper to judge quality by packagingDOther products are better packaged than food45What can we learn from the last paragraph? AFighting wastefulness is difficult BNeedless material is mostly recycled CPeople like collecting recyclable wastesDThe author is proud of their consumer culture第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。首先请阅读下面6封信件或便条：ADear Mom,Every time its your birthday, I remember all the great birthday parties you gave me when I was growing upI especially remember the one when I turned to 16, and the words you and Dad said to meNow I hope you enjoy the birthday party Im holding for youYours,BDear Dan,FDear Mom,I think youre the greatestI know you have faults, but I cant think of any at the momentYou deserve much more than this small gift in return for everything that youve done for me, but its all that I can affordHopefully, by the time I become a mom, Ill be able to be as giving to my child as youve been to meLove,请为下面回复的信件或者便条匹配合适的来信或便条：46Dear Sucre,I understand exactly what youre telling me, and I think this problem is very commonDont forget that, from your grandmothers perspective, even your father and mother are just babiesTalk with your parents and ask them to talk with your grandmotherIm sure theyll be able to explain to her that its time to stopYours,47Dear Amanda,Glad to hear from you!
