feeling anxious of the whole processWhile we were waiting，just minutes before the center opened their door，a young girl the same age as my daughter，came inShe had a beautiful smile I remember，and spoke of her desire to make a difference for others like my daughter from a11 she learned through her past drug abuseI felt that she was sincere in her desireIt had been two weeks since her stopping the use of drugsMy daughter was standing next to me and focused on doing her best to stay calm on the outside，while inside she was feeling quite anxious，so she barely noticed what this girl was

puzzled over which aspects are truly fundamentalNow a new study on lizards(蜥蜴)suggests that sleep states once thought to occur only in mammals and birds have much older evolutionary originsScientists had long doubted that birds and mammals are the only vertebrates(脊椎动物)to experience rapid eye movement(REM)，a sleep state in which the body is mostly immobile but the brain is overworkingDuring REM sleep，the brain produces high-frequency waves of electrical activity and the eyes turn suddenly from time to timeIn humans，REM is closely linked to dreamingREM is a pattern of slow-wave sleep，a state in which brain activity weakens and the waves become more consistentThis slower state is widely thought to be important to memory formation and storage“But scientists who looked for signs of REM and slow-wave sleep in reptiles(爬行动物) have hadconfusingresults，”says Gilles Laurent，a neuroscientist at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt，GermanySo he and his colleagues had planned to examine how the lizardsa common pet in Germany use visual information to chase treatsUsing camera，the team found that the sleeping lizardseyes twitched during the REM-like stage，just like other animalsThey also found a very familiar pattern within the slower phase of the lizardsbrain wavesSome scientists believe these waves help transform new information into memories by replaying past events quicklyAlthough more studies are still needed to determine whether the function of these brain wave patterns is the same across species，the results suggest that these REM and slow-wave sleep patterns could date all the way back to the common ancestor of reptiles，birds，and mammals8What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?AThe origin of human dreamBThe definition and effect of REMCThe features and course of memoryDThe advantages and disadvantages of REM9Which of the following can best replace the underlined word“twitched”in paragraph 3 ?Aopened wide Bmoved quicklyCstayed closed Dkept still10How does the lizardsbrain waves turn information into memories according to some scienfists?ABy increasing their frequency slowlyBBy changing their pattern occasionallyCBy playing back the past events quicklyDBy connecting visual information effectively11What can we infer from the 1ast paragraph?AThe function of the brain wave is the sameBAll the animals have the common ancestorCThe sleep pattern of all the animals is the sameDThe study about sleep pattern has a long way to goDA good way to look at failure straight in the face is by writing a failure resume(简历)or CVLike social media，there，we usually only see our friends“highlight part”When we look at othersresumes，we get scared and think how ours doesnt measure upBut even the most accomplished people have plenty of failure behind themwe just dont see itStefan felt this deeply as a scientist，so she wrote a different CV which of course boasted (夸耀)about her good grades，PhD，and published papersBut the way she deals with her failure CV is a model of what we could a11 do“My CV does not reflect my great academic effortsit does not mention the exams I failed，my unsuccessful PhD or scholarship applications，or the papers never accepted for publicationDuring the interviews，I talk about the one project that worked，not about the many that failed，”writes Stefan in a column for NStefan suggests keeping a draft on which you log，casually but regularly，every unsuccessful application，refused grant proposal and rejected paperAnd thats the point：not to consider what we got wrong，but to use that information to both look at failure and realize its really okay，and also to use our failures for another purpose：as learning toolsThe point is to be realwith ourselves and about how the world worksBeing real means taking an honest，critical，but also kind look at what we didnt get right，and then doing our best to change what we canInstead of focusing on how that failure makes you feel，take the time to step back and analyze the practical，operational reasons that you failedSo，prctice being okay with failure，and turning your failures into lessons learnedAnd yes，sometimes we have to learn those lessons more than once，letting go of what you cant changeAnd keep moving forward to success12What does the underlined word“it”in the first paragraph refer to?APlenty of failure BA failure resumeCHighlight partDSocial media13What did Stefan intend to tell us in paragraph 3?AA11 her failures in her careerBBenefits she got from her failuresCThe content of her own resumeDThe difference between her resume and others14What does Stefan advise us to do in our careers?ARegard failures as part of our lifeBKeep a record of our failuresCValue our achievementsDLong for failures15Which of the following best describes the authors opinion?ANo pains，no gainsBA11 roads lead to RomeCWhere there is a will，there is a wayDFailure is the mother of success第二节 (共5小题；每小题25分，满分125分)
