Her annual visits to the Caribbean island from her home in California shaped her life and inspired her to bee a poet and writer. The Poetry Foundation recently named her its Young Peoples Poet Laureate, a role that Engle plans to use to encourage children and teenagers to write down their feelings.Magic happens when you put your emotions in writing, she said.Engle says she has always liked poetry. At age 6, she wrote her first poem about nature. After looking around while taking a walk one day in California, she wrote a rhymed poem about the shapes of hills. As a teen, she wrote sonnets(十四行诗) about nature and stories about people in Cuba.Some of her books explore the island, its people, markets and landmarks. Her new picture book, “All The Way to Havana”, features American cars from 1940s and 1950s. “Forest World”, a new novel, introduces Edver to readers, an 11-year-old who lives in Miami, Florida, with his mother and is shipped off to Cuba to see his birthplace and meet his Cuban family. When he arrives in Havana, the capital, he learns he has an older sister, Luza, who stayed on the island with her father and grandfather. The two go on an adventure into a Cuban forest.The emotions of the characters are similar to what many children feel when they are separated from loved ones, Engle said. She hopes that people facing similar challenges can find support and fort in poetry.24. What made Engle a poet?A. Her visit to Cuba.B. Days spent in California. C. Magic skills in practicing writing.D. Encouragement from the Poetry Foundation.25. We can learn from the text that young Engle probably_.A. enjoyed indoor gamesB. found inspiration in nature C. liked exploring cities in FloridaD. made friends with Cuban people26. What is true about “Forest World”?A. It is a new picture book.B. It is based on a real-life event.C. It talks about an adventure story.D. It describes family ties between countries. 27. What does Engle stress in the last paragraph?A. The frequent changes of emotion.B. The challenges in writing poems.C. The separations from family members. D. The links between life and literature. CYou are out to shopping. The sweater you buy home is ugly. Why? There is a science to every sale. Among other findings of interest to retailers, researches have shown customers are drawn to items sitting on the middle of a shelf, as opposed to the ends, and that we think prices to be lower when they have fewer syllables and end with a 9. Stores have figured out how to deal with us by overpricing goods with the intention of later marking it down, knowing that we will see the lowered price as a deal. “Retail atmospherics”-lighting, wall color, music, smell and so on- can significantly influence customers moods, and their spending. The space factor would have different influence. Stores jammed with goods are known to induce claustrophobia(幽闭恐惧症), while those that are too bare can cause agoraphobia(空旷恐惧症). Either extreme can lead to shoppers to flee. Moreover, cooler temperatures indoors lead to a more emotional style of decision making, while warmth contributes to a more analytical approach- which could explain why expensive stores always seem to have their air-conditioning functioning.Touch is important too. Stores might consider making goods accessible to customers . People are more likely to buy a high-quality item if they can handle it. Music is likewise a powerful tool: The right kind can increase customers pleasure and cause them to lose track of time. One study found that popular music leads to impulsive decisions, while less-known background music leads to focused shoppers-ones who are, say, more likely to carefully process information about promotions. So now you know: youre not entirely to blame for that regrettable statement necklace, or that unused man purse. Anchoring and atmospherics got the better of you.28. What does the underline word “science” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Plan B. Trap C. Goal D. Trick 29. How many factors are mentioned in paragraph 3?A. 5. B. 6. C. 7. D.8. 30. Which statement is true according to the passage?A. The price of goods ending with a 9 is lower than of a 3.B. Hot temperatures encourage people to buy more C. Goods of high quality should be within the reach of customers.D. Unknown songs are sure to improve sales.31. Why do you buy that ugly sweater according to the passage?A. Because you are taken over by the atmosphere.B. Because you dont care more about the price.C. Because you are cheated by talkative salesgirls.D. Because you are attracted by the unique design.DBe honest, when was the last time you cried? If youre one of those who say they never cry, the statistics are against you. Women reportedly cry 64 times a year on average, while men shed（流）tears about 17 times. Everyone from professional athletes such as Michael Jordan to politicians like Barack Obama has been caught crying at least once. But why do we cry?Some psychologists believe crying is our bodys response when were helpless. Even if were surprised by happy news, we may still cry. Other psychologists say that when we cry, were trying to get others to help us out when were surprised, sad, angry, scared, or in danger.Therapist（临床专家）Judith Kay Nelson says that our experience with crying as babies may determine how we view crying when were older. Some parents are quick to try and calm their kids down whenever they start crying. Those children will likely find crying in their adult years brings a similar fort. On the other hand, those whose parents became angered by their crying probably wont feel crying has the same calming effect.Many people believe crying can actually make a person feel better. But according to studies, whether it makes us feel better or not depends on the reactions of others. If others react positively, well feel better. On the contrary, well feel worse.Peoples reactions to crying have a lot to do with the gender（性别）of the person weeping. In the West, its generally acceptable for women to be seen crying. In Britain boys are taught not to cry. Even though people are being more enlightened about tears, crying in males is still viewed as a sign of weakness. Philip Hodson, an expert on male emotions, has a different viewpoint. “In truth, crying isnt weakness; its a relaxation system,” he says. “If we dont use this system, were not being very intelligent.” After all, everybody cries.32. What can be learned about the act of crying from the statistics? A. Everyone, regardless of sex, cries.B. Some people never cry.C. Women often cry for no reason at all.D. Men actually cry more than women.33. Which is the opinion of therapist Judith Kay Nelson? A. The act of crying has a calming effect on all of us.B. Parents shouldnt rush to calm their baby when it cries.C. The way we view crying is shaped by our childhood experience.D. Parents responses to a crying baby will determine its personality type.34. What is said about crying making a person feel better? A. It is pletely false.B. It is dependent on a persons age.C. It is true only for men.D. It is influenced by others responses.35. What can we infer about Western cultures from the last paragraph? A. Only intelligent people can relax by crying.B. Crying is still less socially acceptable for males than females.C. Males are now encouraged to express their emotions through crying. D. British people consider it unhealthy to keep feelings bottled up inside.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Since Zhang Qians expedition(探险) westwards, the Silk Road connecting China and the outside world has e into being.
