Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the
blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given
word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks,use
one word that best fits each blank.
14.(10分)However depressed you may be feeling now, if you look back, there certainly will
have been events that made you happy﹣maybe the time (1) you bought your first
bicycle or you were awarded a scholarship. When good things happen, we feel excited,
proud and happy.
But the problem is, happiness doesn't usually last. The excitement of that first bicycle
purchase wears off, and the pride in the scholarship gives way to the stress of performing (2)
(well) on the next exam.
Psychologists call this phenomenon hedonic adaptation (享乐适应症)﹣that is, (3)
good something makes us feel, most of the time we drift back to (4) we
started. An often (5) (quote) example is that lottery winners are no happier than
non﹣winners eighteen months after their win.
But don't despair. It is possible to make happiness last. Psychologists have found two
anti﹣adaptation tools that are effective in sustaining happiness: variety and appreciation.
Variety is, as we all know, the spice of life. But it's also a useful weapon (6)
adaptation. Positive changes that (7) (experience) in a variety of ways are more
likely to lead to lasting happiness. For example, you will feel happier about your volunteer
work (8) you are able to cope with new tasks every week. The second tool,
appreciation, is in many ways the opposite of adaptation. It's about focusing on something,
instead of letting it fade into the background. It is only when you appreciate something (9)
an enduring feeling of happiness will follow.
Human beings spend a lot of time figuring out what makes them happy, but not enough
time (10) (try) to hang on to the happiness they already have. This is like focusing
all your energy on making more money, without giving any thought to what you will do with
the money. The key to happiness is to not only look for new opportunities but also to make
第4页(共24页)
the most of the ones you've been given.
Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word
can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
15.(10分)
A. coupled B. currently C. head D. depressing E. product
F. target
G. suggest H. capability I. score J. potentially K. tricky
Want to figure out if someone is a psychopath (精神变态者)? Ask them what their
favourite song is. A New York University study last year found that people who loved
Eminem's Lose Yourself and Justin Bieber's What Do You Mean? were more likely to (1)
highly on the psychopathy scale than people who were into Dire Straits.
Over the past few years, Spotify has been enhancing its data analytic (2) in
an attempt to help marketers (3) consumers with adverts tailored to the mood they're
in. They infer this from the sort of music you're listening to, (4) with where and
when you're listening to it, along with third﹣party data that might be available.
Now, to be clear, there's nothing particularly (5) about what Spotify is doing
with your data. I certainly don't think that they are working with shadowy consulting firms to
serve you ads promoting a culture war while you're listening to the songs that (6)
you might be in a casually racist mood. Nevertheless, I find it (7) that our
personal private moments with music are increasingly being turned into data points and sold to
advertisers.
You can see where this could go, can't you? As ad targeting gets ever more
complicated, marketers will have the ability to target our emotions in (8)
exploitative ways. According to one study, titled Misery Is Not Miserly, you are more
likely to spend more on a (9) if you're feeling sad. You can imagine some
companies might take advantage of that. And on that note, I'm feeling a little down about all
this. I'll (10) off to treat myself to something expensive.

第5页(共24页)
phrase that best fits the context.
16.(15分)The constant working engine that drives the majority of human action is, undoubtedly,
the fragrant dream of individualism. And while the presence of its scent is (1)
throughout the world entirely, its value is worshipped (敬奉) to such an extent in a land no
other than that of America.
As the framework of its history, America holds individuality as the ever﹣popular green
light, the essence of which becomes the symbol of hope for, well, almost everything. In
fact, in America's current social status, individuality has become something of a birthright,
and a (2) applied upon the face of the media, where it was (3) valued
as the American dream. There is no denying the popularity of this idol in American society,
and little hope for (4) it.
However, (5) most pride themselves in their individualistic state, perhaps
humans, when stripped (剥) to their core (核心), are everything but.
It is no new discovery that people are the sum of their experiences. The overwhelming
majority of human experiences involve other humans, along with the (6) and
relationships between them. It is a (7) occurrence when a life is built upon events
without this stimulus. Indeed, interaction is the core of experience. Therefore, in order
that humans are the sum of their experiences, they must be the sum of the people that they
meet, just as well.
As an Americanized teen, I found the discovery that not only my self﹣entitled
individualism was (8) , but that I, as a being, was a product, increasingly
unsettling to accept. Questions (9) me such as "If I am bits and pieces of everyone
I have met ﹣ my family, my teachers, all of my friends, and even strangers ﹣ then what
is left that is just me? What part of me is just me? How much of myself is the combining of
different parts of different people? Is such a (10) between myself and others even
possible?"
Such are inquiries that will continue to be thought about, as I have come to accept that
they will remain a (11) . Therefore, with the allowance of these questions, the
response must be a (12) in the definition of "oneself". The previously mentioned
questions no longer concern me, as I have put a stop to the idea that the "real" me is some lost

isolated island on top of an ocean of influence.
I realized that my personality cannot depend on a(n) (13) between influence
and individualism, as such is a line that cannot be distinct. (14) , I must be a
person whose calmness is a beautifully hazy mixture, and a steady question. Thus, it is the
commonly unnoticed durable mystery that is the frustration of those who can (15)

Section BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several
questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,
C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you
have just read.
17.(8分) Charity Cycling UK recently launched a campaign to raise awareness of dooring
after discovering that many people don't know what it is. Dooring is when a driver or
第7页(共24页)
passenger opens the door into another road user﹣typically cyclist﹣without looking for other
road users.
Cycling UK chief executive Paul Tuohy told Gloucestershire Live: "Some people seem
to see car dooring as a bit of a joke, but it's not and can have serious consequences. Cycling
UK wants to see great awareness made about the dangers of opening your car door carelessly,
and people to be encouraged to look before they open."
The charity says 2,009 of the 3,000 injuries were sustained by cyclists, resulting in five
fatalities but says this might not be the full extent of the danger.
Cycling UK says not all car dooring incidents will be attended by police, so the charity
has written to transport minister Jesse Norman calling for a public awareness campaign urging
all car occupants, not just drivers, to look before opening vehicle doors. One of the ways
the charity suggests is the "Dutch reach", where people leaving a vehicle reach over and use
the non﹣door side hand to open the door.
Cycling UK also suggests harsher laws and advice on safer road positioning for people
who cycle.
Mr. Tuohy said: "In the Netherlands they are known for practicing a method, known
sometimes as the ‘Dutch reach', which we think could be successfully encouraged in the
UK."
"Cycling UK has written to the Department for Transport asking them to look into this,
and highlight the dangers of ‘car dooring' through a public awareness THINK style
campaign."
If you're really concerned about opening a door into the path of a cyclist coming behind
you, consider using what's known as the "Dutch reach" to open the door. That will naturally
turn you in your seat and give you a much better view of what's coming up alongside in the car.
(1)Why does the author mention the figures in Paragraph 3?
A. To cause public concern.
B. To report the terrible accidents.
C. To show the danger of car dooring.
D. To stress the importance of traffic safety.

(2)While doing the "Dutch reach", you should .
A. sit still in your seat
B. open the car door politely
C. use the inside hand to open the door
D. use the left hand to open the car door
(3)What can be learned from the text?
A. Many people are ignorant of car dooring.
B. The "Dutch reach" is well received in England.
C. Dooring incidents are all attended by police.
D. Drivers are to blame for dooring incidents.
(4)What's the author's attitude towards car dooring?
A. Negative.
B. Ridiculous.
C. Neutral.
D. Concerned

19.(8分)Parallel worlds exist and interact with our world, say physicists.
Quantum mechanics (量子力学), though firmly tested, is so weird and anti﹣intuitive
that physicist Richard Feynman once remarked, "I think I can safely say nobody understands
第11页(共24页)
quantum mechanics." Attempts to explain some of the bizarre (奇异的) consequences of
quantum theory have led to some mind﹣bending ideas, such as the Copenhagen
interpretation and the many﹣worlds interpretation.
Now there's a new theory on the block, called the "many interacting worlds" hypothesis
(假设) (MIW), and the idea is just as profound as it sounds. The theory suggests not only
parallel worlds exist, but that they interact with our world on the quantum level and are thus
detectable. Though still speculative (推测的), the theory may help to finally explain some
of the bizarre consequences inherent in quantum mechanics.
The theory is a spinoff of the many﹣worlds interpretation in quantum mechanics﹣an
assumption that all possible alternative histories and futures are real, each representing an
actual, though parallel, world. One problem with the many﹣worlds interpretation,
however, has been that it is fundamentally untestable, since observations can only be made
in our world. Happenings in these proposed "parallel" worlds can thus only be imagined.
MIW, however, says otherwise. It suggests that parallel worlds can interact on the
quantum level, and in fact that they do.
"The idea of parallel universes in quantum mechanics has been around since 1957,"
explained Howard Wiseman, a physicist at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia, and
one of the physicists to come up with MIW. "In the well﹣known ‘Many﹣Worlds
Interpretation', each universe branches into a bunch of new universes every time a quantum
measurement is made. All possibilities are therefore realized ﹣ in some universes the
dinosaur﹣killing asteroid (小行星) missed Earth. In others, Australia was colonized by
the Portuguese."
"But critics question the reality of these other universes, since they do not influence our
universe at all," he added. "On this score, our ‘Many Interacting Worlds' approach is
completely different, as its name implies."
Wiseman and colleagues have proposed that there exists "a universal force of repulsion
between ‘nearby'(i.e. similar) worlds, which tends to make them more dissimilar."
Quantum effects can be explained by factoring in this force, they propose.
When asked about whether their theory might imply that humans could someday interact
with other worlds, Wiseman said: "It's not part of our theory. But the idea of human
