lived with his tribes 部落 in what is now the state of Virginia Little is known about Shenandoah but in some way the soft sound of his name was given to a river The Shenandoah River still flows in a deep valley between the Allegheny and Blue Ridge Mountains just as it did when Chief Shenandoah lived It is a slow moving river soft and as beautiful as its name Some word experts who believe the word Shenandoah means spruce river because the waters of the river run through great forests of spruce trees 云杉 And this explanation could be correct However there is an old Native American story which is far more beautiful than that of the experts Centuries before Europeans came to the New World there was a great lake of blue water hidden in the mountains of Virginia For hundreds of years Native American tribes lived near this lake feeding on the fish from its clean waters The Native Americans often climbed up the mountains and camped there during their long hunts for food In the evenings they sat near their camp and looked down at the beautiful lake On a clear starry night you could see thousands of stars shining and dancing on the water below The Native Americans loved this lake and because they could see the stars in it they called the lake Clear Daughter of the Stars In their language the word for this was Shenandoah One day the lake started to disappear Its water ran out of the valley through a break in the mountain side The waters ran on and on until they joined another river known as the Potomac At last the lake was gone In its place was only a river It is the beautiful Shenandoah River today However the word Shenandoah becomes well known to people because someone wrote a song about it some years ago Shenandoah is perhaps one of America s most recognizable folk songs Some say the song refers to the river Others say it is about the daughter of Chief Shenandoah Regardless of what the song is about Shenandoah remains an American classic O1 Shenandoah I love your daughter Away you rolling river O Shenandoah I love your daughter Away I m bound to go Cross the wide Missouri 1 According to the text Shenandoah may be the following EXCEPT A spruce river B the Potomac C Clear Daughter of the Stars D an American chief s name 2 Shenandoah is familiar to Americans mostly because of A pure and refreshing water B a great historical character C an American classic song D the mysterious disappearance of a lake 3 The most suitable title of the passage is 2 A Shenandoah and Its Native American RootsB An American Chief s Romantic Tale C The Mystery of a Missing LakeD A Beautiful American Song B Americans love peanut butter The average child will eat 1 500 peanut butter before he or she graduates high school But there is a controversy over a new peanut butter It is called STEEM Peanut Butter This peanut butter adds a new ingredient caffeine Coffee is a popular morning drink because it has caffeine and gives people energy in the morning Even small amounts of caffeine can be dangerous to children United States Senator 参议员 Charles Schumer says Peanut butter one of the snacks most closely connected with children might have to be stored in the medicine cupboard rather than in the kitchen cupboard This will shock the Food and Drug Administration Schumer wants the U S FDA to investigate He observed that earlier the FDA prevented plans for a caffeinated chewing gum STEEM the manufacturer said We are selling the caffeinated peanut butter all over the world The product provides caffeine in an easily digestible way Caffeinated foods have been sold in U S stores for well over a decade and are in no way a new idea Customers tell us they want to eat the caffeinated peanut butter so they don t have to drink as much coffee or energy drinks The peanut butter is not intended for children Peanut butter has been a favorite of children for generations Schumer continued Parents across the country have to worry about a scene in which their child might unknowingly bite into a peanut butter that contains more caffeine than two cups of coffee The American Academy of Pediatrics says caffeine in small amounts can help the physical performance of adults But the academy urges parents not to allow children to take even small amounts of caffeine owing to caffeine s possible negative effects on a child s heart and brain development 4 There is a controversy over the STEEM Peanut Butter because it contains A fat B peanut C caffeine D nutrition 5 Charles Schumer suggests that the new peanut butter should be A kept in the kitchen cupboard B out of children s reach C manufactured in huge quantitiesD eaten by children for generations 6 According to STEEM the new peanut butter is popular with adults because A it is a traditional foodB it is digested more easily C its production is not bannedD they eat it instead of energy drinks 7 We can guess from the text that the responsibility of the Food and Drug Administration is to A introduce new foods and drugs B promote the sales of foods and drugs C guarantee the safety of foods and drugs D improve the physical performance of adults C State media Guangming Daily published an article on March 28 blaming the game for distorting history The article claimed that despite using many famous names from Chinese history King of Glory completely misrepresented the figures true stories and status 3 According to the newspaper famous poet Li Bai from the Tang Dynasty became an assassin 刺 客 while noted doctor Bian Que from the Spring and Autumn Period was cast as an expert on poison More than 60 characters in the game were characters from history including many from the classic novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms They the characters in the game not only travel through time and space to fight together but also take on historical figures names with no connection at all to their experiences in history the newspaper argued adding that this characteristic could easily confuse young players Some 54 percent of the game s players are aged between 11 and 20 the newspaper added King of Glory is a multiplayer online battle arena MOBA game designed by Tencent Games It was launched in 2015 In 2016 the total profit of the game reached nearly 7 billion RMB some 18 percent of the total profit for mobile gaming in China The Guangming Daily article was met with significant support and approval Some people pointed to online search results for the historical figures which increasingly provide information about the characters in the game rather than the real historical figures However some hit back at the criticism arguing that games are supposed to be creative and that King of Glory doesn t claim to be set in any specific historical period I am aware that there are many young players some even in primary school Some might be affected by the game in certain ways but it can do a lot of good if students become interested in the characters and do more research to that end one King of Glory player told the People s Daily Online 8 What does the underlined word distorting in paragragh 1 mean A Reflecting B Recording C Twisting D Creating 9 Which is NOT true according to the passage A About half of the game s players range from11 to 20 in age B In 2016 the total profit for mobile games in China amounts to about 39 billion RMB C You may get information about the assassin Li Bai in the game through a search engine D Many young players become interested in the historical figures through the game 10 What is the author s main purpose of writing the passage A To explain why the game is popular B To present that the game has become a target for criticism C To convince people that the game is distorting history D To introduce the game to the public 11 What s the author s attitude towards the game A Objective B Doubtful C Favorable D Disapproving D Soaping up your hands may do more than just get rid of bacteria It may wash away the inner stress you feel right after being forced to make a choice between two attractive choices according to a new study The study builds on the past research into a phenomenon known as the Macbeth effect It turns out that Shakespeare was really onto something when he imagined Lady Macbeth 4 trying to clean her conscience by rubbing 擦 invisible bloodstains 血迹 from her hands in his tragedy Macbeth A few years ago scientists asked people to describe a past wrong act If people were then given a chance to clean their hands they later expressed less guilty than people who hadn t cleaned This finding interested W S Lee a researcher anything from the past any kind of negative emotional experiences might be washed away says Lee He decided to test hand washing s effect on one kind of bad feeling the stress we feel after being forced to choose between two attractive choices because picking one choice makes us feel that we ve lost the other People usually try to calm this inner conflict by later exaggerating 夸大 the positive aspects of their choice He had students rank 10 different music CDs Then he offered students two of the CDs and told them to select one as a gift Some students then used liquid soap Others only looked at the soap or sniffed it Actually you do not need water and soap says Lee Later the students again had to rank all the music CDs People who didn t wash their hands had the normal response they scored their take home CD higher suggesting that they now saw it as an even more attractive one than before But this wasn t true for the hand washers They ranked the music about the same They feel no need at all to justify the choice says Lee But Lee also says it s too soon to know whether people should head for a sink after making a tough choice He says washing may help decision makers by cleaning away mental disorder But perhaps if they don t go through the usual post decision process of justifying their choice they might feel more sorrow in the long run 12 What is true about the Macbeth effect A Shakespeare used to wash his hands before writing Macbeth B Macbeth knew about the importance of cleaning hands C People feel less ashamed after washing their hands D Lady Macbeth had a habit of washing hands 13 In Lee s experiment those who didn t wash their hands after making a choice A felt regretful about their choice B valued their choice more than before C wished they had washed their hands D didn t care about their choice 14 According to Lee those hand washers A will surely feel more sorrow in the long run B tend to exaggerate the positive side of their choice C will never regret their choice D consider justifying their choice unnecessary 15 What is the best title of the text 5 A Benefits of Washing Your Hands B Importance of Justifying Your Choice C Washing Away Your Stress D How to Reduce Choice Anxiety 第二节 共 5 小题 每小题 1 5 分 满分 7 5 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 Gratitude is beneficial to both the one giving and the one receiving You
