We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything.I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort. trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops. and more drops. and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride.21. Why did the author follow her son? A. Because there might be danger. B. Because her son was doing a good deed. C. Because she intended to help.

Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event,depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said:“Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr Garfinkel said,“The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don't seeand guide whether we see fear.”To further understand this relationship,the scientists also used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person's feeling of fear.“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain speak to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear,” Dr Garfinkel said.“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders,and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”25What is the finding of the study?A. One's fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.B. Fear is a result of one's relaxed heartbeat.C. Fear has something to do with one's health. D. One's heart affects how he feels fear.26The study was carried out by analyzing _.A. volunteers' reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scansB. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditionsC. volunteers' heartbeats when they saw terrible picturesD. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heartbrain communication27Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “mechanism” in Paragraph 6?A.

In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old. What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven't yet started to take on heir(继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants. Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good. Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.

Hugh Grant bumps into Julia Roberts and pours orange juice all over her. After the bump, Grant repeatedly says: “ I am so sorry. I am so sorry.” 36 . If Robertscharacter were from Britain then she would probably apologize repeatedly as welleven if the bump were not her fault. But this doesnt happen in the film, as Roberts is from the US. A report said that three-quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the street regardless of whether they are responsible or not. In fact, we Britons use “sorry” in many situations. For example, if we mishear someone, we say “Sorry?” The person we are talking to will also apologize by replying: “No, I am sorry! 37 . Life is never as simple as “duibuqi” and “meiguanxi”.38 . Traditionally, “sorry” was used to express deep regret, but a survey in 2007 showed that we use it to mean anything from “what” to “whatever”. 39 . Mark Tyrell, a psychology writer in the UK, thinks about our apologetic tendencies are rooted in the British class system. We say sorry because historically the new middle classes in Britain had to apologize for not being working class, but also for not really being upper class. 40 . For example, if you bump into someone they might get angry. To avoid this we instantly say “Sorry!”.True manners are about being considerate and the modern day hobby with apologizing show that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were. The word has lost some of its meaning. Do you see my point? Sorry, it might just be a British thing.AWhy are Britons so sorry?BBritish often say sorry to each other. CHow we use “sorry” has changed.DHis action in this scene are very British.EThis can go on for up to five minutes as we compete over who is the most sorry.FAnother theory is that we apologize to avoid confrontation(冲突)GHis actions in this scene are very British.第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节:完型填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Peter and Paul got permission from their parents to camp in a field close to their farm.
