But when the bell for the next class rings, you cant 36 how quickly time has passed.If you are familiar with this 37 , youll know how time flies when you are having fun-and 38 when you are bored. Now scientists have 39 a reason why this is the case.Scans have shown that patterns of activity in the brain 40 according to how we focus on a task. When we are 41 , we concentrate more on how time is passing. And this makes our brains 42 the clock is ticking more slowly.In an experiment 43 by a French laboratory, 12 volunteers watched an image 44researchers monitored their brain activity.The volunteers were told to 45 concentrate on how long an image appeared for, then46 the color of the image, and thirdly, study both duration and color. The results showed that 47 was more active when the volunteers paid 48 subjects.It is thought that if the brain is 49 focusing on many aspects of a task, it has to 50 its resources, and pays less attention to the clock. 51 , time passes without us really 52 it, and seems to go quickly. If the brain is not so active, it concentrates its 53 energies on monitoring the passing of time. 54 , time seems to drag.Next time you feel bored 55 , perhaps you should pay more attention to what the teacher is saying!36AguessBlearnCbelieveDdoubt37AviewBpointCsceneDexperience38AdragsBstopsCbacksDgains39Athought overBmade upCsuggestedDcome up with40AchangeBdevelopCgrowDslow41Asleepy BboredCexcitedDactive42AreportBthinkCdecideDsee43AproducedBcarriedCtriedDperformed44AsoBwhenCwhileDbut45ApartlyBquicklyChowDfirst46ArememberBfocus onCforgetDtell apart47Athe researchersBthe experimentCthe clockDthe brain48Amuch attention toBmore attention toCattention to manyDattention to more49AbusyBlikelyCreadyDsure50AfocusBgatherCreachDspread51AHoweverBFurthermoreCThereforeDFinally52ArecognizingBwatchingCnoticingDcounting53AenoughBfullCrightDproper54AIn factBAs a resultCFor exampleDInstead55Ain classBwith workCin mindDof lessons第四部分：阅读理解（满分40分）第一节 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AYears ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers advised, “Barbara, be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.” How right they were!“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, “I can do it!” When others shout, “No, you cant!” It took years for the early work of Barbara Mclintock, a geneticist who won the Nobel Prize in medicine, to be generally accepted. Yet she didnt stop working on her experiments. Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.We are all born with wide-eyed, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air, whatever their age. At 90, pianist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach. As the music flowed through his fingers, joy would reappear in his eyes. As author and poet Samuel Ulman once wrote, “Years wrinkle(使皱) the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”Enthusiastic people also love what they do, without being affected by money or title or power. Patricia Mellratl, retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Kansas City, was once asked where she got her enthusiasm. She replied, “My father, long ago, told me, I never made a penny until I stopped working for money.”If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended periods of depression that troubled her for at least 30 years and the quality of her work led one critic to say, “I am tempted into a genius.”We cant afford to waste tears on “might-have-been”. We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after “what-can-be”We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, with all our sensesfinding pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden, the simple picture of a six-year-old, and the beauty of a rainbow.56 The author mainly wants to say that _A. enthusiastic people will never get oldB. enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy lifeC. enthusiasm is more important than experienceD. enthusiasm can give people more success and fame57. Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?A. Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.B. If you dont have enthusiasm, you can achieve nothing.C. Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.D. Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.58. The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that_A. music can arouse peoples enthusiasmB. enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeedC. enthusiasm can make people feel youngD. enthusiasm can keep people healthy59. How many examples are given in the passage to show the importance of enthusiasm?A. Three B. Two C. Four D. FiveBThere is an English saying, “Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to study laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found facts that laughter really can improve peoples health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing. it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produce pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The group which tolerated(忍受) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny programme. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins(内啡肽) in the brain. These are natural chemicals which diminish both stress and pain.There is also some fact to suggest that laughter helps the bodys immune （免疫的）system, that is , the system which fights infection. In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group of students served as the control group- in other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had an increase in the activity of their white blood cells, that is, the cells which fight infection.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists( 精神病医生) in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients condition by encouraging them to laugh.They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing , making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.60. It can be learnt from the passage that laughter can _.A. make people feel youngerB. change peoples habitsC. improve peoples healthD. make people love their lives61. The underlined word “diminish” refers to _.A. testB. reduceC. stopD. find62. Smiling can produce_.A. the same effects as laughterB. more effects than laughterC. less effects on the human bodyD. no effects on the human body63. The main idea of this passage is that _.A. there are several ways of studying the benefits of laughter.B. laughter and physical exercise have the same effects on human body.C. tests show that laughter can produce beneficial effects on human body.D. the doctors should learn how to make people laugh.CAmericans: Restless?
