Language is our greatest treasure as a species, and what do we _52_ do with it? We gossip. About others behaviour and private lives, such as whos doing what with whom, whos in and whos out-and why; how to deal with difficult _53_ situations involving children, lovers, and colleagues. So why are we keen on gossiping? Are we just natural _54_,of both time and words? Or do we talk a lot about nothing in particular simply to avoid facing up to the really important issues of life? Its not the case according to Professor Robin Dunbar. In fact, in his latest book, Grooming, Gossip and the Evolution of Language, the psychologist says gossip is one of these really _55_ issues.Dunbar _56_ the traditional view that language was developed by the men at the early stage of social development in order to organize their manly hunting activities more effectively, or even to promote the exchange of poetic stories about their origins and the supernatural. Instead he suggests that language evolved among women. We dont spend two-thirds of our time gossiping just because we can talk, argues Dunbar _57_, he goes on to say, language evolved specifically to allow us to gossip. Dunbar arrived at his cheery theory by studying the _58_ of the higher primates(灵长类动物)like monkeys. By means of grooming-cleaning the fur by brushing it, monkeys form groups with other individuals on whom they can rely for support in the event of some kind of conflict within the group or _59_ from outside it. As we human beings evolve from a particular branch of the primate family, Dunbar _60_ that at one time in our history we did much the same. Grouping together made sense because the bigger the group, the greater the _61_ it provided; on the other hand, the bigger the group, the greater the stresses of living close to others. Grooming helped to _62_ the pressure and calm everybody down. But as the groups got bigger and bigger, the amount of time spent in grooming activities also had to be _63_ to maintain its effectiveness. Clearly, a more _64_ kind of grooming was needed, and thus language evolved as a kind of vocal(有声的)grooming which allowed humans to develop relationship with ever-larger groups by exchanging information over a wider network of individuals than would be possible by one-to-one _65_ contact.51.

He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.He reported the case to the police and then sat there,lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husbands name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶)that had been left out on the footpath.My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people.We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.1.What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?A.Go shoppingB.Find a houseC.Join his familyD.Take his family2.The girls parents got Rashids phone number from_.A.a friend of his familyB.a Sydney policemanC.a letter in his papesD.a stranger in Sydney3.What does the underlined word“restored”in the last paragraph mean?A.ShowedB.Sent outC.DeliveredD.Gave back4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.From India to Australia.B.Living in a a New Country.C.Turning Trash to Treasure.D.In Search of New Friends.1-4 BCDCB The behaviour of a buildings users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use, according to new research from the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC). The UK promises to reduce its carbon emissions (排放)by 80 percent by 2050, part of which will be achieved by all new homes being zero-carbon by 2016. But this report shows that sustainable building design on its own though extremely important- is not enough to achieve such reductions: the behaviour of the people using the building has to change too. The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by existing efforts to improve energy efficiency (效率),which instead focus on architectural and technological developments.Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everything,explains Katy Janda, a UKERC senior researcher,consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most careful design. In other words,old habits die hard, even in the best-designed eco-home.Another part of the problem is information. Households and bill-payers dont have the knowledge they need to change their energy-use habits. Without specific information,its hard to estimate the costs and benefits of making different choices. Feedback (反馈) facilities, like smart meters and energy monitors,could help bridge this information gap by helping people see how changing their behaviour directly affects their energy use; some studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15 percent energy savings using smart meters.Social science research has added a further dimension (方面),suggesting that individualsbehaviour in the home can be personal and cannot be predicted 一 whether people throw open their windows rather than turn down the thermostat (恒温器) , for example.Janda argues that education is the key. She calls for a focused programme to teach people about buildings and their own behaviour in them.66.As to energy use, the new research from UKERC stresses the importance of_.A.zero-carbon homes B. the behaviour of building usersC.sustainable building designD. the reduction of carbon emissions67.The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 2 refers to”_.”A. the waysB. their homesC.developments D. existing efforts68.What are Katy Jandas words mainly about?A.The importance of changing building users, habits.B.The necessity of making a careful building design.C.The variety of consumption patterns of building users.D.The role of technology in improving energy efficiency. 69.The information gap in energy use _. A.can be bridged by feedback facilitiesB.affects the study on energy monitorsC. brings about problems for smart metersD.will be caused by building users old habits70.What does the dimension added by social science research suggest?A.The social science research is to be furthered.B.The education programme is under discussion.C.The behaviour of building users is unpredictable.D.The behaviour preference of building users is similar.【文章大意】本文是一篇科普说明文,大意是说明建筑物的使用者的行为至少和它的设计一样的重要,即人们家庭对于能源的消费量直接影响我们的生活环境的质量。66.

One day, this approach threw me into embarrassmentIn Mrs. Tottens eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数).Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days, our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had apeared on our homework sheets. She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs. Totten made her way from the beginning of the class,I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldnt function.When Mrs. Totten reached my desk,she asked what answer Id got for problem No. 14. “II didnt get anything,” I answered,and my face felt warm. “Correct,” she said.It turned out that the correct answer was zero.What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isnt always what you say but how you say it that matters. Third,I would never make it as a mathematician.If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.61.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?A.It is wise to value ones time.B.It is important to make an effortC.It is right to stick to ones belief.D.It is enough to do the necessary.62. Usually, Mrs. Totten asked her students to _.A. recite their homework togetherB.grade their homework themselvesC.answer their homework questions orallyD.check the answers to their homework questions63.The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _.A.asked questions in a regular wayB.walked up and down when asking questionsC.chose two or three questions for the studentsD.requested her students to finish their usual questions64.The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _.A.the class didnt begin as usualB.several students didnt come to schoolC.he didnt try hard to make his estimateD.Mrs. Totten didnt start from the back of the class65,Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.An Unforgettable TeacherB.A Future MathematicianC.An Effective ApproachD.A Valuable Lesson62. Usually, Mrs. A. recite their【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,大意是介绍最有价值的一堂数学课。“我”的数学老师每次上课都让学生们口头回答前一天的数学题,她通常是按学生的座号的顺序或倒序进行提问,而“我”的座号是全班的中间,所以每次提问时“我”都能按顺序算好自己该回答那个题,然后就这一个题做好准备。但那天却出了问题,“我”虽然计算好了自己要回到的问题,但有几个同学请假了,老师提问的不是“我”准备的问题,当老师提问到“我”时,“我”说:我得到了零。老师说:对。原来那个题的答案就是零。“我”居然回答对了。从那堂课“我”得到了很多启示,是最有价值的一堂课。61.
