Its great to visit this high school and talk to you. My names Mike Selby and Im a game developer. When I was your age, I used to play computer games. I was also a huge fan of science fiction. My dream was to become a computer programmer, because I was good at developing software. But games were always my first interest. When I was at college, I set up the “Games Creation Club” with a few of my friends. Then word got around that I was good at developing games. And a big company offered me a job after I graduated. One of my games, Dark Snake, was made into a film. Nowadays, I prefer to work on smaller games than that one. The reason is that those huge games take several years to make. I get to travel a lot, going to meetings and meeting the people who play our games. I was in Japan last week, and I learned a lot there. In the next few months, Im planning to set up my own business developing games.第二部分 阅读(共两节, 满分50分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分, 满分37.5分)阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。APhiladelphia offers a ton of attractions that are suitable for people of every age and here are some family-friendly attractions.

Researchers from the University of Dundee in Scotland conducted a study that clarifies why you may want to have a small bite before making that big decision. Benjamin Vincent from the University of Dundees Psychology department and his co-author Jordan Skyrnka tested 50 people two times: once when they followed their normal eating patterns and once when they did not eat anything during the day. Using three different types of rewards (food, money, and song downloads), the team discovered when presented with the choice of receiving the reward now versus double the award at some point in the future, participants would usually volunteer to wait for 35 days to earn a larger bounty, but when they were hungry, they said they would only wait three days.“We wanted to know whether being in a state of hunger had a specific effect on how you make decisions only relating to food or if it had broader effects, and this research suggests decision-making gets more present-focused when people are hungry,” Vincent said in a story about the study on the universitys website. “You would predict that hunger would impact peoples preferences relating to food, but it is not yet clear why people get more present-focused for completely unrelated rewards. Hunger is so common that it is important to understand the non-obvious ways in which our preferences and decisions may be affected by it,” he said.In an earlier study of the subject by a team at Cambridge University in England, the researchers noted that serotonin plays a major role in the decision-making process. “Since the raw material for making serotoninan amino acid called tryptophan only comes from diet, levels of the chemical decline between meals,” reports a piece in the Telegraph about the study. “This can lead to aggressiveness and impulsiveness,” say the team.24. How did Benjamin Vincent and Jordan Skyrnka carry out their research?A. By analyzing reasons.B. By making comparison.C. By giving examples.D. By filling questionnaires.25. The underlined word “bounty” in paragraph 2 can be best replaced by _.A. bonus.B. quantity.C. income.D. fortune.26. What conclusion can we draw from Vincent study?A. Its common to make a wrong decision if you are hungry.B. Make sure you are not hungry before making a big decision.C. The more hungry you are, the quicker you will make a decision.D. Being hungry drives you to make a decision connected with food.27. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. What should be eaten to make a wise man.B. How can we get enough serotonin from our diet.C. What other factors will influence ones decision-making.D. How does a chemical function in the course of making a decision.【答案】B A B D【解析】这是一篇说明文。一项研究表明，饥饿会影响人的决策，文章介绍了这一研究开展的过程以及研究发现和意义。24. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Benjamin Vincent from the University of Dundees Psychology department and his co-author Jordan Skyrnka tested 50 people two times: once when they followed their normal eating patterns and once when they did not eat anything during the day.(邓迪大学心理学系的Benjamin Vincent和他的合著者Jordan skrnka对50人进行了两次测试：一次是在他们遵循正常的饮食模式时，另一次是在他们白天不吃任何东西时)”可知，Benjamin Vincent 和Jordan Skyrnka是通过比较进行他们的研究的。故选B。25. 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Using three different types of rewards (food, money, and song downloads), the team discovered when presented with the choice of receiving the reward now versus double the award at some point in the future, participants would usually volunteer to wait for 35 days to earn a larger”以及后文“but when they were hungry, they said they would only wait three days.”可知，利用三种不同类型的奖励（食物、金钱和歌曲下载），团队发现，当让参与者选择现在领取奖励与未来某个时间点的双倍奖励时，参与者通常会自愿等待35天，以获得更大的奖金，但当他们饥饿时，他们说他们只会等待三天。即划线词意思是“奖金”。A. bonus.奖金；B. quantity.数量；C. income.收入；D. fortune.财富。故选A。26. 推理判断题。根据第三段中“We wanted to know whether being in a state of hunger had a specific effect on how you make decisions only relating to food or if it had broader effects, and this research suggests decision-making gets more present-focused when people are hungry(我们想知道，在饥饿的状态下，是否会对你做出只与食物有关的决定产生特定的影响，还是会产生更广泛的影响。这项研究表明，当人们饥饿时，决策会更多地关注当下)”以及“Hunger is so common that it is important to understand the non-obvious ways in which our preferences and decisions may be affected by it(饥饿是如此普遍，所以了解我们的偏好和决定可能会以一种不明显的方式受到它的影响是很重要的)”可推知，我们能从Vincent的研究中得出的结论是：在做重大决定之前一定要确定你不饿。故选B。27. 主旨大意题
