The giant vending machine
(自动售货机) is a new village shop
Villagers
have long been used to facing a drive when they
run out of basic supplies. However, help is now
nearer at hand in form of the country’s first
automatic push-button shop. Now residents in the
Derbyshire Village
of Clifton can buy
groceries around the clock after the huge vending

week.

Mr. Fox said he hoped his invention, (35)______ is

over the
coming months, will mark a return to
convenience shopping for rural communities.
He said:“ I had this idea a

Let's say you've decided you want
to eat more healthfully. However, you don't have
time tocarefully plan
menus for meals or read
food __41__ at the supermarket. Since you
really__42__ yourself to a healthier lifestyle,
a little help would come in handy, wouldn't
it? This iswhere a architectcan help__43__some of
the
burden of doing it all yourself.
Choicearchitects are people who organize the
contexts in which customers make
decisions.
For example,the person who decides the layout of
your local supermarket-including which shelf the
peanutbutter goes on, and how the oranges are
piled up—is a choice architect.
Governments
don't have to__44__healthier lifestyles through
laws---for example,smoking bans. Rather, if
given an environment created by a choice
architect one thatencourages us to choose what is
best-we will do the
right things. In other
words, there will bedesigns that gently push
customers toward making healthier choices,
without removing freedomof choice. This idea
combines freedom to choose with__45__hints from
choice
architects, whoaim to help people live
longer, healthier, and happier lives.
The
British and Swedish governments have introduced a
so-called
healthy or unhealthy. This means
that customers can see at a glance how muchfat,
sugar, and salt each product
contains__47__by
looking at the lights on the package. Agreen light
__48__that the amounts of the three
nutrients
are healthy; yellow indicates that thecustomer
should be__49__; and red means that the food is
high in
at least one of the threenutrients and
should be eaten in __50__. The customer is given
important health
information, butis still free
to decide what to choose.

Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following
passage there are four words or phrases marked
A,B, C and D. Fill in
each blank with the word
or phrase that best fits the context.
Research has shown that two-thirds of human
conversation is taken up not with discussionof the
cultural or
political problems of the day, not
heated debates about films we've just watched or
books we've just finished
reading, but plain
and simple__51__.
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 who's doing what with whom,
who's in and who's 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 importantissues
of life? It's not the case
according to
Professor Robin Dunbar. In fact, in his latest
book,Grooming, Gossip and the Evolution
ofLanguage,
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 earlystage 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. Insteadhe
suggests that language evolved
among women. We
don't 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.

Section B
Directions: Read
the following three passages. Each passage is
followed by several questionsor unfinished
statements. For each of them there are four
choices marked A, B, C and the one that fits best
according
to the information given in the
passage you have just read.
(A)
Most
people agree that honesty is a good thing. But
does Mother Natureagree?
Animals can't talk,
but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie
withtheir bodies and
behavior?
Animal experts may not call it lying, but theydo
agree that many animals, from birds to
chimpanzees,
behave dishonestly to fool other
animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps themsurvive.
Many kinds of birds are very successful at
fooling other animals. For example, a bird called
the plover
sometimes pretends to be hurt in
order to protect its young. When a
predator(猎食动物)gets close to its nest,
the
plover leads the predator away from the nest. How?
It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator
follows
the
Another kind of bird, the
scrub jay, buries its food so it always has
something to eat. Scrubjays are also
thieves.
They watch where others bury their food and steal
it. But clever scrub jaysseem to know when a thief
is
watching them. So they go back later,
unbury the food, and bury itagain somewhere else.
Birds called cuckoos have found a way to have
babies without doing much work. How?They don't
make
nests. Instead, they get into other
birds' nests secretly. Then they lay their eggsand
fly away. When the baby birds
come out, their
adoptive parents feed them.
Chimpanzees, or
chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the
losing chimp will give itshand to the other.
When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too,
the chimps are friendly an animal expert once saw
a
losing chimp take the winner's hand and
start fighting again.
Chimps are sneaky in
other ways, too. When chimps find food that they
love, such asbananas, it is natural
for them
to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But
some cleverchimps learn to cry very softly when
they
find food. That way, other chimps don't
hear them, andthey don't need to share their
food.
As children, many of us learn the saying
can't fool Mother maybe youcan't trust her,
either.
66. A plover protects its
young from a predator by______.
A. getting
closer to its young B. driving away
the adult predator
C. leaving its young in
another nest D. pretending to be injured
67. By Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be
sneaky
A. chimps are ready to attack others
B. chimps are sometimes dishonest
C. chimps
are jealous of the winners D. chimps can be
selfish too
68. Which of the following is true
according to the passage?
A. Some chimps lower
their cry to keep food away from others.
B.
The losing chimp won the fight by taking the
winner's hand.
C. Cuckoos fool their adoptive
parents by making no nests.
D. Some clever
scrub jays often steal their food back.
69.
Which of the following might be the best title of
the passage?
A. Do animals lie?
B. Does Mother Nature fool animals?
C. How do
animals learn to lie? D. How does
honesty help animals survive?
(B)
Let's say you want to hit
thegym
more regularly this do
you make
thathappen? Consider
putting thehabit loop to
use.
Here's how it works:
A habit is a
3-step ,
there's a cue, somethingthat tells
your brain to operateautomatically.
Then
there's aroutine. And finally, a
reward,which
helps your brain
learn todesire the behavior.

whatyou can use to
create-orbreak-
habits of your own.
Here's how to apply
it:
Choose a cue, like leaving
yourrunning
shoes by the door,
thenpick. a reward-say, a
piece
ofchocolate when you get
homefrom
the gym. That way, the
cueand the reward
becomeinterconnected. Finally,
whenyou see
the shoes, your
brainwill start longing for
thereward, which will make iteasier
to
work out day after best
part? In a couple
ofweeks, you
won't need thechocolate at all.
Your brain willcome to see the
workout
itselfas the reward. Which
is thewhole point,
right?

(C)
If you could be anybody in the world, who would it
be? Your neighbour or a super star? Afew people
have
experienced what it might be like to step
into the skin of another person, thanks to an
unusual virtual reality(虚
拟现实)device. Rikke
Wahl, an actress, model and artist, was one of the
participants in a body swapping
experiment at
the Be Another lab, a project developedby a group
of artists based in Barcelona. She swapped
with her partner, an actor, using a
machinecalled The Machine to Be Another and
temporarily became a man.
I looked down, I saw
mywhole body as a man, dressed in my partner's
pants,she said. the picture I
rememberbest.
The set-up is relatively
simple. Both users wear a virtual reality headset
with a camera onthe top. The video
from each
camera is sent to the other person, so what you
see is the exact viewof your partner. If she moves
her
arm, you see it. If you move your arm, she
sees it.
To get used to seeing another
person's body without actually having control of
it,participants start by raising
their arms
and legs very slowly, so that the other can follow
along. Eventually, this kind of slow
synchronised(同
步的)movement becomes comfortable,
and participants really start to feel as though
they are living in another
person's body.
Using such technology promises to alter
people's behaviour afterwards-potentially for the
better. Studies have
shown that virtual
reality can be effective in fighting racism-the
bias(偏见)that humans have against those who
don't look or sound like them. Researchers at
the Universityof Barcelona gave people a
questionnaire called the
Implicit Association
Test, which measuresthe strength of people's
associations between, for instance, black
people and adjectives such asgood, bad,
athletic or awkward. Then they asked them to
control the body of a
dark skinneddigital
character using virtual reality glasses, before
taking the test again. This time, theparticipants'
bias scores were lower. The idea is that once
you've
of them, because your brain has
internalised the feeling ofbeing that person.
The creators of The Machine to Be Another hope
to achieve a similar result.
people feel like
holding each other in their arms,
really nice
way to have this kind of experience. I
wouldreally, really recommend it to everyone.
74. The word swapping
A. building B.
exchanging C. controlling D.
transplanting
75. We can infer from the
experiment at the Be Another lab that______.
A. our feelings are related to our bodily
experience
B. we can learn to take control of
other people's bodies
C. participants will
live more passionately after the experiment
D.
The Machine to Be Another can help people change
their sexes
76. In the Implicit Association
Test, before the participants used virtual reality
glasses to control adark skinned
digital
character, ______.
A. they fought strongly
against racism
B. they scored lower on the
test for racism
C. they changed their
behaviour dramatically
D. they were more
biased against those unlike them
77. It can be
concluded from the passage that______.
A.
technology helps people realize their dreams
B. our biases could be eliminated through
experiments
C. virtual reality helps promote
understanding among people
D. our points of
view about others need changing constantly
Section C
Directions: Read the
passage carefully. Then answer the questions or
complete thestatements in the fewest
possible
words.
More and more corporations are
taking an interest in corporate social
responsibility (CSR).CSR is made up of
three
broad layers. The most basic is traditional
corporate charity ies typically spend about 1% of
pre-tax profits on worthy projects. But many
feel thatsimply writing cheques to charities is no
longer enough. In
some companies, shareholders
wantto know that their money is being put to good
use, and employees want to
be actively
involved ingood works.
Money alone is not
the answer when companies come under attack for
their behavior. Hencethe second
layer of CSR,
which is a branch of risk management. Starting in
the 1980s, withenvironmental disasters such as
the explosion at Bhopal and the Exxon Valdez
oil spill, industryafter industry has suffered
blows to its reputation.
So, companies
often responded by trying to manage the risks.
They talk to non-governmental organisations
(NGOs) and to governments, create codes of
conduct(行为准则) and devote themselves to more
transparency
(透明)in their operations.
Increasingly, too. they, along with their
competitors, set common rules to spread
risks.
All this is largely defensive, but there
are also opportunities for those that get ahead of
thegame. The
emphasis on opportunity is the
third layer of CSR: the idea that it can help to
createvalue. If approached in a
strategic way,
CSR could become part of a company's
competitiveadvantage. That is just the sort of
thing chief
executives like to hear. The idea
of
Nevertheless, the business of trying to
be good is bringing difficult questions to you
measure
CSR performance? Should you be
cooperating with NGOs and you’re yourcompetitors?
Is there any really
competitive advantage to
be had from a green strategy?
Corporate social
responsibility is now seen as a mainstream. Big
companies want to tell theworld about
their
good citizenship with their devotion to social
responsibilities. Done badly, CSRis often just
window-dressing
and can be positively harmful.
Done well, though, it is not some separate
activity that companies do on the side,
a
corner of corporate life reserved for
virtue(美德):it is just good business.

29. 本题考查条件状从句的连词。根据句意„I want to have a better
career advancement, I had to find work in
the
city“„„我想要一个更好的职业发展,我就不得不在城市里找工作”可知,前句表示条件,故填if。
30. 本题考查名词性从句的连词。根据句式结构可知,本句是一个主语从句做主语,而连词又在从句
中做
动词had told的宾语,故填连接代词what。
31. 本题考查短语have
difficulty in doing sth的搭配,故本空填adapting。
32.

returned位于句首,且有否定词,因此句子用部分倒装结构,

neer是可数名词,而electrical前面为元音读音,故该空填不定冠词an。

shop可知:首先本句用的是一般现在时;其
次本句是并列谓语结构;又由于The
machine和equip是动宾关系,故该空填该动词的一般现在时的被动
语态is
equipped。
35. 本题考查非限定性定语从句。根据句式结构可看出,这是一个非限定性定
语从句,而空中所缺的成分
既代替先行词his
invention,又在从句中做主语,故用关系代词which。

could deliver what I
wanted可以推断“所
以我自己做”。故填myself。
37.
本题考查形容词比较级。该自动售货机英语为huge outdoor vending
machine,但是作者认为用术语the
term
“automatic shop”相比之下应是“较合适”,即用比较级形式。由于appropriate为
多音节形容词,
故前面加more。
38. 本题考查考查动词时态。根据时间状语In
recent years可知,该句用现在完成时。故正确答案为has forced。
39.
本题考查现在分词做结果状语。根据前句„about 400 village shops closed句
意“„„大约400家村店关
闭”可以看出结果是“促使当地政府给挣扎的村店提供经济支持„„”,故
用现在分词urging。
40. 本题考查介词用法。根据短语offer sth to sb
sth可知,该空填to。

本题考查副词用法。根据„customers can see at a glance how much
fat, sugar, and salt each product
contains__47__by looking at the lights on the
package(顾客们只要看包装上的指示灯一眼就能看出每一个产
品含有多少脂肪、糖和盐)可知,
此空填simply。故选K。
48. J 本题考查动词用法。由于空后所接的是宾语从句,所以该
空填及物动词,结合后面indicates的意思

Dear
Editor,
When it comes to the selection of
the columns for the school English newspaper,
opinions vary from one to
another. As far as I
am concerned, the columns preserved will
definitely make a feature of students' interest
and
exert positive effects on their study and
life.
Comparatively speaking, I maintain
that the value of the columns concerning health
and culture far
outweighs that of the
entertainment. The immediate factor is nothing is
more valuable than keeping healthy in that
loss of health signifies kissing goodbye to
life. That's why more knowledge of how to keep
fit, more effectively
one can improve his
quality of life. The second point to be mentioned
is that progress in the acquisition of cultures
contributes to broadening one's horizons,
which in turn facilitates one's study and the
establishment of philosophy
of life.
As for the addition, the career
planning constitutes a top priority. For one
thing, it concerns one's career
development a
great deal while for another, it makes a great
difference to one's career success in the future.
I am pretty convinced that a wise choice
makes perfect. I am writing the e-mail in the hope
that my advice
will add a brilliant touch to
the improved version of our school English
newspaper.
Yours sincerely,
Cheng Fei

today?

railway station at three, but I will help you as
soon as I get back.

first?

bit more than I want to spend.

Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?

in the newspaper about the mayor’s speech?
M:
Sure I did, but I think they twisted the meaning
of what he said.
Q: What does the man say of
the editorial?
Section B
Directions:
In Section B, you will hear two short passages,
and you will be asked three questions on each of
the
passages. The passages will be read twice,
but the questions will be spoken only once. When
you hear a question,
read the four possible
answers on your paper and decide which one would
be the best answer to the question
you have
heard.
Questions 11 through 13 are based on
the following passage.
About 70 miles
northeast of Vancouver, it’s one of Canada’s most
beautiful tourist regions. Visitors come to
enjoy fishing, skiing or the splendid mountain
scenery. Over 20 years ago, Cursty Bone, a
successful business
woman came here and
founded Paradise Reach--- a cabin park, she said,”
I want to live somewhere where
everybody knows
everybody else. And all your problems are shared.
Paradise Reach is now home to 25 families.
Each family owns their own small cabin, but
they share ownership of the park and the common
facilities. This is
a real living community,
and residents aren’t allowed to use their cabins
as a holiday home. The heart of the
Paradise
Reach Community is a large house. Shared meals
take place three times a week. And once a month,
there is a meeting, where important decisions
are made. Families can sell their homes if they
want to leave. But
the whole community must
vote on new families before they are allowed to
join. “Keeping the community
together is hard
work”, says Cursty, “Everybody has to take
responsibility for the day-to-day running of the
community, but it seems that there is no
shortage of families who want to join. There are
75 on the waiting list.”
Questions:
11.
How many families are living in Paradise Reach
now?
12. What is special about Paradise Reach?
13. What is the passage mainly about?
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the
following news.
It’s 3 P.M. Time for news
from world medicine.
Does sitting make you
sad? Australian researchers found that middle aged
women who sat for over 7 hours
a day or 47%
more likely to show signs of depression than those
who sat for 4 hours or fewer. Those who were
engaged in no physical activity were 26% more
likely to have symptoms of depression 3 years
later than those
who exercised regularly.
Sitting for long periods has also been linked to
heart disease.
How can you detect a liar
through text message? Watch for a delayed
response. When college students
were asked to
tell a lie during an interview with a computer,
they took 10% longer on average to send the
message, and they did more editing than usual.
Can marriage beat cancer? Married people were
20% less likely to die from the disease than those
who
were unmarried, according to a Harvard
study of more than 730,000 people. They were also
more likely to get
the disease detected at an
earlier stage and receive proper treatment. A
husband or a wife can urge you to see
medical
help and support you during tough medical therapy,
radiation and other treatments.
Questions:
14. Who were mostly likely to suffer from
depression according to Australian researchers?
15. How did students behave when they told a
lie during an interview with a computer?
16.
What is the third piece of news mainly about?
Section C
Directions: In
section C, you will hear two longer conversations.
The conversations will be read twice. After you
hear each conversation, you are required to
fill in the numbered blanks with the information
you have heard.
Write your answers on your
answer sheet.
Blanks 17 through 20 are
based on the following conversation.
W: Excuse
me, I’m Linda Lee from the Airport Research
Division. May I ask you a few questions about the
environment and facilities here?
M: OK.
W:Are you on a business trip?
M: Yes, I’m
heading off for a conference in London.
W:
What do you like most about the airport
environment?
M: Well, I really appreciate the
daylight?
W: Daylight?
M: Yes, the windows
here make it seem as if you are outside. Another
thing I like is the moving walkways. You
don’t
have to walk for miles to the boarding gate.
W: I see, anything you don’t like?
M:
En.., the shops are often overcrowded, there is
not enough space to move around comfortably. And
also I
suppose the trolleys are too small.
W: Well, thanks for your time.
Complete the form. Write ONE WORD for each
answer.
Blanks 21through 24 are based on
the following conversation.
W: Professor King,
what exactly is critical thinking?
M: Well,
when you read critically, you should assess the
writer’s ideas and think about the implications
and
conclusions of what the writer is saying.
W: Can you give me an example?
M: When you
read an academic text, first, you should identify
the argument, and work out the writer’s main line
of reasoning.
W: Ok, what then?
M:
Try to analyze and criticize the argument.
W:
I see, that’s why you often ask whether the
argument is presented in a logical way.
M:
Right, then assess the evidence the writer gives
you. That maybe in the form of figures, survey
results,
examples, etc.
W: How about the
writer’s conclusions?
M: Ask yourself if they
are supported by the evidence.
W: Got it.
Thanks, Professor King.
M: Remember, the key
to critical thinking is to read actively and keep
asking yourself questions rather than just
accepting.
Complete the form. Write
NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
