went to see her in my 13 year old 39 thinking she wouldn t 40 normally from then on Over the years I 41 and didn t think much about Helen after that Three years ago in Florida my eldest son was 42 by

could give me it would be 51 Looking at this wonderful giving person I felt 52 But I also felt the 53 hope I had felt since learning that my son was hurt From this person that I thought would have no

2 分 满分分 满分 30 分分 请认真阅读下列短文 从短文后各题所给的 A B C D 四个选项中 选出最佳选项 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑 A Are you happy Do you remember a time when you were happy Are you seeking happiness today Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness Some have put their heart and effort into their work Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact People are looking for a lasting source of happiness Unfortunately I believe that happiness escapes many because they misunderstand the process and journey of finding it I have heard many people say that I ll be happy when I get my new promotion Or I ll be happy when I lose that extra 20 pounds The list goes on and on You probably have a few of your own you could add if you wanted This thinking is dangerous because it presupposes that happiness is a response to having being or doing something In life we all experience stimulus and response Stimulus is when a dog barks at you and bares his teeth Response is when your heart beats faster your palms get sweaty and you prepare to run Today some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus Happiness is a response A great paying job is a stimulus Happiness is a response A loving relationship is a stimulus Happiness is a response This belief leaves us thinking and feeling I ll be happy when It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly happy When we are happy we tend to have more success in our work When we are happy people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships When we are happy we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health Happiness is NOT a response rather it is a stimulus Happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives For unknown reason to me many choose to be painful unsuccessful and angry most of the time Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want we usually get things we want AFTER we 5 choose to be happy I have made only one simple rule for my own happiness Every day above ground is a GOOD day Therefore I tend to have a lot of good and happy days continually 56 Paragraph 2 mainly talks about that people seek happiness A in the same way B in different ways C hyping hard D by taking drugs 57 What does the underlined phrase This thinking refer to A The thinking of being promoted B The giving up of happiness C The process and journey of finding happiness D The misunderstanding of happiness 58 The writer strongly believes that happiness is A a response B a stimulus C a great paying job D an expensive car 59 The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to A tell people how to enjoy happiness B encourage people to seek happiness C criticize the wrong ideas about happiness D express his attitude towards happiness B There is very little in my life that is more personal and more important to me than comets the amateur David H Levy told Terence Dickinson in an interview Not just discovering them but watching them learning about them writing about them understanding what they do It makes observing the sky intensely personal I feel when I find a new comet a door has been opened and I have seen a slightly new aspect of nature There is this object in the solar system that for a few minutes or a few hours only I know about It is like trying to pry 打探 a secret out of nature It is a very special feeling Ever since he was a child David H Levy has been fascinated by the night sky and the wonders it reveals to devoted watchmen He developed a special feeling for comets before he reached his teens though it was not until 1984 after nineteen years and more than nine hundred hours of combing the sky in search of them that he discovered his first one from a small observatory that he had built in his backyard Since then he has discovered or co discovered twenty more making him one of the world s most important comet hunters His most celebrated find is periodic comet Shoemaker Levy 9 which he made with the husband and wife comet and asteroid hunting team Eugene and Carolyn Shoemaker The comet s dramatic collision with Jupiter in July 1994 which constituted 组成 the greatest planetary show in recorded history to quote Malcolm W Browne of the New York Times captivated 迷住 not only professional astronomers but many amateurs Although he is only an amateur astronomer he earns his living by lecturing and writing books and by working with project artists They re projects devoted to introducing astronomy to elementary school children he has won tremendous respect from his professional colleagues for his success in tracking down comets David H Levy is one of those rare individuals blessed with the gift of discovery David Hartsel who serves on the board of directors of the Richland Astronomical Society in Ohio has said Even rarer is his ability to let others share in the excitement and wonder of those discoveries through his writing and lectures 60 All the following are suggested in this passage as reasons that contribute to Levy s success as a respectable astronomer EXCEPT that A he had his books published on astronomy B he worked on a project that is intended to introduce astronomy C he was born with the gift of the discovery of comets D he was highly praised by his colleagues for his unselfishness 61 According to David Hartsel he most appreciates Levy s A gifted ability of comet hunting B ability of communicating his ideas 6 C curiosity to the sky and comets D spirit of devotion to astronomy 62 Levy says that watching the sky is quite personal to him because A he has developed a very special affection for the sky B he can discover a secret out of nature C he has established a close relationship with the sky D he may have a personal talk with nature C Why can some people sleep through noises like a honking car or flushing toilet while others are awakened by the lightest sound To find the answer sleep researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital conducted an unusual study of 12 self described deep sleepers After tests confirmed that the healthy volunteers were solid sleepers they took part in a three night study in the university s sleep laboratory The participants spent the night in a big and comfortable room But the room also included four speakers positioned near the top of the bed During the night the deep sleepers were subjected to 14 different recorded sounds like street traffic toilets flushing an ice machine dispensing and an airplane flying overhead Next door the researchers monitored their sleep patterns and brain waves As expected all of the participants slept relatively well but there were differences in how they responded to the noisy interruptions Some of the sleepers didn t wake up even when a sound was blasted at 70 decibels 分贝 others were awakened by sounds at 40 or 50 decibels The researchers discovered that the difference in a sleeper s reaction to noise could be predicted by the level of brain activity called sleep spindles A sleep spindle is a burst of high frequency brain activity coming from deep inside the brain during sleep The source of the spindles is the thalamus a part of the brain that sends sensory information to the rest of the cortex 皮层 Before the study the Massachusetts researchers theorized 推理 that the spindles are the brain s way of preventing sensory information from passing through the thalamus and waking the rest of the brain during sleep They found that the sleepers who experienced the most sleep spindles during the night were also the soundest sleepers and were least likely to be awakened by noise Scientists already know that most people become lighter sleepers with age most likely because older people experience less slow wave sleep which is the deepest stage of sleep People also produce fewer sleep spindles as they age But even when controlling for the stage of sleep a person was in the number of sleep spindles still predicted their risk for awakening because of noise More research is needed but the findings suggest that a better understanding of sleep spindles could lead to new behavioral or drug therapies for people with sleep disorders For instance future studies may try to determine whether diet exercise or other behaviors may influence the number of sleep spindles a person produces during the night 63 Some participants can sleep well through loud noises mainly because A their brains don t respond to outside noises B their brains react differently to noises C they adapt to the environment quickly D they don t pay attention to the monitors 64 Scientists believe that the key to affecting deep sleep is A sleep spindles B stages of sleep C sleep disorders D sensory information 65 It can be learned from the passage that A the older a deep sleeper becomes the lighter his sleep must be B the more slow wave sleep one experiences the deeper sleep one has 7 C the more frequently a sleeper s brain works the less information it sends D the deeper sleep people have the more likely they will be awakened by noise 66 From the passage we can predict A more factors in influencing sleep spindles may be discovered B more solid sleepers will take part in relative experiments C sleep spindles will be applied to changing one s behaviors D deep sleepers will probably enjoy a more healthy life D Ray s wedding had gone off smoothly Everyone seemed to have had a good time A few people had too good a time they went home with designated 指派的 drivers All evening the gift table remained unguarded Who would steal anything Ray thought He had never heard of such a thing happening at a wedding But his best friend Aaron said there was a first time for everything He strolled out regularly from the inside festivities 庆祝 to check on the gift table making sure no one suspicious was hanging around it Ray and Julia went on a 3 week honeymoon to Italy right after the wedding When they got back they opened all the gifts and sent out thank you notes But there was one problem A married couple that used to be good friends had apparently given nothing This surprised Julia because Walt and Mary said they were thrilled to be invited And they actually seemed to have had a great time at the wedding Frankly Ray didn t even care if they hadn t given a gift He just needed to know whether to send a thank you note Ray called Aaron Aaron said maybe Walt had left an envelope on the gift table like Aaron had Yes but we got your envelope with the cash inside Ray said Maybe my envelope looked too thin and some thief thought Walt s envelope looked nice and fat Aaron asked Ray if he had looked everywhere for Walt s gift Had he called up the wedding site to see if anything had been left behind Ray said that he had looked everywhere and made a lot of calls that were fruitl
