For many in the UK, if the New Year means anything, it means _11_ (turn) over new leaf. And to do this, many of us make New Years resolutions-a list o

18、f ways _12_ we intend to improve ourselves in the year ahead. We reflect on our past mistakes and make up our minds not to do them again. _13_ (give) up smoking is ever popular, as is a promise to take up more exercise or spend more time with family.But have you ever wondered when the idea of a New

19、Years resolution comes from? The answer might lie in ancient Babylonia, according to History. com. The Babylonians _14_ (believe) to be the first to hold recorded celebrations for the New Year. The 12 day-long celebration, _15_ (name) Akitu, allowed them not only _16_ (show) their loyalty to the Kin

20、g, but also to appeal to the gods to pay their debts and return the borrowed objects.The ancient Romans too had similar traditions. New Years Day was a time _17_ all government officers would take an oath(发誓) that they _18_ obey the laws and support the city leader. Incidentally, the month of Januar

21、y is named after the Roman god Janus. He is the god of beginnings, transitions and time, among other things and is described as having two faces-one looking to the past and _19_ facing forward to the future.Whether youre looking at a quick behavioral change _20_ a huge personality checkup, youre tak

I decided to help students write in more detail about what they were thinking when they solved their problems or when they wrote about their ideas.I chose a common, everyday task that all of us _22_ in: choosing w

24、hat to wear. When I asked them how they decided what they wore that day, there was a(n) _23_ moment of silence. It seemed a _24_ silly question. A few just said “they wore what they wore.” This was a perfect beginning as it was the same kind of response they were giving as to how they were getting t

25、heir math answers. I told them how I decided what I wore that day.First I checked the weather in the paper and by looking outside. I had to decide between wearing a dress or skirt since either one could make a difference in the _25_ I wish to give. Most of the girls related to this one. I had to be

26、sure what I wanted to wear was clean and ironed. They _26_ no one ironed clothes any more. I had to check to see if I had shoes that went with the possible outfit.

27、ring. I thought about the _28_ I would be doing that day both at school and after school.Each new consideration brought out comments from the students.

28、t their thinking process is richer than they first suspected. It was a good lesson for showing details of the thinking process of which we werent _30_.III. Reading Comprehension (45分)Section A(15分)Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and

29、D in each blank with the word or phrase that best fit the context.When you say that someone has a good memory, what exactly do you mean? Are you saying that the person has fast recall or that he or she _31_ information quickly? Or maybe you just mean that the person remembers a lot about her or his

30、childhood. The truth is that it is _32_ to say exactly what memory is. Even scientists who have been studying memory for decades say they are still trying to _33_ exactly what it is. But we do know that a particular memory is not just one thing stored somewhere in the brain. _34_ , a memory is made

31、up of bits and pieces of information stored all over the brain. Perhaps the best way to _35_ memory is to say that it is a process-a process of recording, storing, and getting back information. Practice and repetition can help to _36_ the pieces that make up our memory of that information.Memory can

32、 be negatively affected by a number of things. _37_ nutrition can affect a persons ability to store information.

33、s making it _40_ to register information in the brain.When people talk about memory, they often _41_ both short-term memory and long-term memory.

34、 it! You use your short-term memory to remember the number.

This number is in your long-term memory, which _43_ information a

35、bout things you have learned and experienced through the years.Why do you forget things sometimes? The major reason for forgetting something is that you did not learn it well enough _44_.

Japan is one of them. O

40、thers do not have many. For example, there are few earthquakes in Britain. There is often a great noise during an earthquake. The ground vibrates (震动). Houses fall down. Trains run off the lines. Sometimes, there is a heavy loss of human lives.Earthquakes often happen near volcanoes, but this is not

41、 always true. The centers of some earthquakes are under the sea. The bottom of the sea suddenly moves. The powerful forces inside the earth break the rocks. The coast is shaken and great waves appear. These waves, also known as seismic waves(地震波), or tsunamis(海啸) can travel long distances and rush o

42、ver the land when they reach it. They are strong enough to break down houses and other buildings. Very often fires follow the most serious earthquakes. In 1906, the numbers of fires were burning in the city. The water pipes were also shaken and broken, so it was not possible to put the fire out. The

43、re was no water. The Tokyo Earthquake of 1923 happened just before noon. People were cooking meals on their fires at that time. When the ground shook, the fires shook, too. Hot materials were thrown on the different parts of the houses, some of which were made of wood. Soon 134 fires were burning in

44、 the city.What kind of building stands up best in an earthquake? A building with concrete walls is perhaps the best. A steel frame will make it even stronger. The frame holds the different parts together and the walls so not easily fall. There is less chance of fire because concrete and steel do not

45、 burn. Over the years, scientists studied the results of the earthquake in different parts of the world, and they are convinced that this kind of building is the safest.46. What can we know about earthquake from the first paragraph?A. Britain has large numbers of earthquake.B. There is often a great noise during an earthquake.C.
