BSome people say that the best way to reduce the size of your waist is to do stomach exercise. Many people believe that when specific muscles are exercised, the fatty tissues (组织) in the immediate area are burned up. The truth is that exercise burns fat from all over the body and not from one specific area. Of course, if you reduce the fat throughout your body, you will certainly see results around your waist too.Some people believe that you need to exercise twice a week in order to keep a sufficient level of physical fitness. However, studies directed by American scientists show that unexercised muscles lose their strength very quickly. Within 48 to 72 hours, you must use the muscles again to reestablish (重建) the good physical effects. And what does that mean to you? American scientists concluded that while daily exercise is most helpful, exercising every other day or three days a week will keep a sufficient level of physical fitness.Is it true that you burn more calories running one mile than walking the same distance? The answer is no. The truth is that you use the same amount of energy whether you walk or run the mile, since in both cases you are moving the same weight the same distance. The speed does not matter. Of course, if you run rather than walk for 30 minutes, you will cover more distance, and therefore burn more calories.If your breathing doesnt return to normal within 5 minutes after you finish exercising, you have exercised too much. Five minutes or so after exercising, your breathing should be normal, your heart shouldnt be beating loudly, and you shouldnt be tired. 24. If you want to reduce the fat around your waist, you should _. A. do stomach exercise B. exercise the waistC. exercise all the muscles of your body D. run fast for 30 minutes25. From the second paragraph, we learn that _. A. we only need to exercise twice a week B. we should exercise three times a week C. muscles lose their strength after 48 hoursD. we should exercise every other day, or three days a week 26. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _ . A. you will lose more weight running one hour than walking one hourB. whether you run one mile or walk the same distance, you use the same amount of energyC. you will lose more weight running one mile than walking the same distance D. both A and B27. If you have exercised too much, _. A. your breathing will take longer than 5 minutes to return to normal after you finish exercising B. your breathing will return to normal within 5 minutes after finishing exercising C. your heart will not be beating loudly D. you will be too tired to moveCMuch information can be conveyed, purely through our eyes, so the expression “eyes also talk” is often heard.Can you recall any experience that further proves this statement? On a bus you may quickly glance at a stranger, but not make eye contact. If he senses that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.It is the same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary time, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward others stare with you that way. Eyes do convey information, right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex. If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away his gaze(注视),his intentions are obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is showing affection for her.However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to control you, you will feel uneasy. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. In fact, continuous eye contact happens between lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show affection that words cannot express.Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.28. What may a person usually do on a bus?A. Glance at a stranger with eye contact.B. Use eyes to talk to a stranger politely.C. Glance at a stranger without eye contact.D. Talk to a stranger politely after a quick glance.29. What does it mean if a man looks at a woman for over 10seconds?A. He likes her eyes.B. He admires her.C. He knows her well.D. He makes contact with her.30. Why is a poor liar easy to be seen through?A. He thinks that he is honestB. He wants to control the victimC. He feels uneasy about others eye contactD. He looks straight at the victim for too long a time.31. What may be the best title for the text?A. Eyes Can SpeakB. Eye Contact MattersC. Dont Stare at OthersD. Use Your Eye Contact DQing-Feng Steamed Dumpling Shop. Daniang Dumpling. McDonalds. What do these companies have in common?Well, besides all being fast food chains, their logos are all red. And its not a coincidence. Color is one of the many that companies use to connect with customers. And if fast food wasnt hard enough, those red logos might make it even harder to ignore.The average human can see ten million colors, but red is special. Its one of the first colors our ancient ancestors thought important enough to name. Early human languages were uncolorful. There were words for “black” and “white” and “red” but not much else. As a result, we have a deeper connection to red than any other color and we react to it in certain ways that actually play to fast food companies advantage. For starters, researchers have found that red can cause a sense of urgency. On top of that, it also has an ability to whet (刺激) our appetites. And when you pair those two together, youve got the perfect recipe to attract hungry customers who want food, fast. So the red logo isnt just a welcoming sign. Its a seduction (诱惑) for your brain. Now, its unclear why red makes us feel this way. But perhaps it has something to do with where the word comes from. Many ancient languages first named red from their word for “blood”. But reds bloody beginning has transformed. During medieval times, for example, red was worn by royals as a status symbol. And today, brides in many parts of India are married in red dress.In fact, red is one of the few colors today that cultures all over the world view positively. And its no wonder companies attach so much importance to their logos. After all, were a visual species. Despite having five senses, 80% of the information our brains process on a daily basis comes from our eyes. And according to marketing company WebPageFX, nearly 85% of consumers say the main reason they choose one product over the other is color.Just think what McDonalds would look like in blue, green, or pink! Its just not the same, right?32. What is the writers purpose in writing the text?A. To introduce the origin of the color red.B. To describe the use of colors in marketing.C. To explain why many fast food logos are red. D. To show how fast food companies attract customers.33. What feeling will people probably have when seeing red fast food logs?A. Relaxation. B. Calmness. C. Eagerness. D. Contentment. 34. The two examples in Paragraph 5 are mentioned to show _.A. the meaning of red has changed B. Indian people value redC. Red has something to do with bloodD. red indicates a high status35. Why do companies pay much attention to their logos according to Paragraph 6?A. Logos convey their values.B. Logos awaken peoples senses.C. People process information daily. D. People largely rely on what they see.第二节：七选五（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。Our brain is a wonderful and complicated organ._36_ In recent years, scientists have discovered new ways to study the brain. They can now watch the activities of different parts of our brain while it is at work. We can think of these techniques as new windows on our minds. 37 It can take pictures of your brain in much the same way as an X-ray machine can take pictures of your bones. This method makes use of the fact that whenever a part of your brain becomes more active, it uses more oxygen. If someone were to use this technique to study your brain, your head would be surrounded by a machine that includes a big magnet. 38 With the help of a computer, it turns these signals into pictures. By taking pictures every few seconds, scientists can tell which parts of your brain become active when you think of something, such as multiplying ten three times. 39 Without stored memories, we would not be able to remember words we have learned or find our way home. Everything we learn must be stored as memories in our brain. 40 Once a change is made, it must remain, even after the effort to learn has stopped. A. One new research method is called FMRI.B. This device can discover tiny signals coming from oxygen.C. Most of our memories are stored away out of our awareness. D. Storing memories is one of the most important jobs our brain does.E. Keeping that information in our brain means our brain changes. F. When we need them, they can be “copied” and placed for immediate use. G. Scientists have been working for centuries to understand how it works.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分40分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。In 2009 we were staying at our cousins house in Triora, Italy.
