After some months, it was time for farming and the farmer was already old and weak and couldn’t dig the ground any more, so the old farmer wrote this letter to his son in prison. “Son, this year I will not plant cassava and yam because I can’t dig the field, I know if you were here you would have helped me”. The son was really touched by his father’s letter so he thought of a plan, and replied his father “Dad, don’t even think of digging the field because that’s where I buried the money I stole”.

On reading this letter, the policeman went early in the morning and dug the whole field in search of the money but nothing was found. The next day the son wrote his father again “Dad, you can now plant your cassava and yam. This is the best I can do from here.”

Leaf peeping, the practice of traveling to watch nature display the fall colors, is a beloved annual activity, especially in New England. Typically, by the end of September, leaves take on warmer colors throughout the U.S. But this year, many areas haven’t even shaken off the green shades of summer. In Maine, forest rangers reported less than 70% color change and modest leaf drop.

It’s commonly believed that trees, like people, must prepare for winter. When fall arrives, and day length and temperature drop, trees respond by ending green substance production and absorbing remaining nutrients, causing leaves to lose the original color. Greens give way to yellows, reds and oranges that make for dramatic autumn displays.

Warm fall temperatures can make the fall colors appear later. Worse, dry summers can cause leaves to miss the fall color turn altogether. Delay of the start of the fall colors, which has been moving later into the fall, could continue. “My observations in the last decade have had more years that were later than what we consider historical averages. It can be a trend as the planet warms,” said the expert Jim Salge.

It’s not just the plants that suffer. “Turning leaves offer an irresistible mass of color — which, by estimate, brings in as much as billions of dollars a year in tourism in New England,” said Andy Finton, a forest ecologist. That’s another good reason to focus on preserving forests. Leaf peeping can stay part of the area’s feature if forests are given enough protection. “If we can keep them unharmed, they’ll provide things we’ve depended on, as well as fall inspiration,” said Finton.

8. What is special about the leaves in Maine this year?

A. They take on warm colors. B. They drop earlier than normal.

C. They stay green longer. D. They totally miss the fall color turn.

9. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?

A. Ways of trees surviving winter. B. Explanation of leaves changing color.

C. Functions of the green substance. D. Effect of climate change on fall leaves.

10. What is the “trend” according to Jim Salge in paragraph 3?

A. The earth gets drier. B. The temperature gets higher.

C. The earth gets warmer. D. The leaves delay color change.

11. What’s the purpose of this text?

A. To introduce leaf peeping. B. To report the right time for leaf peeping.

C. To call on people to admire fall leaves. D. To warn people to take care of forests.

【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. D

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。秋日赏叶是一项备受人们喜爱的活动，但是由于气候变化的影响，美国很多地区的树叶在秋季依然保持着绿色，这给树木本身和经济带来了不利的影响。

【8题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段“Typically, by the end of September, leaves take on warmer colors throughout the U.S. But this year, many areas haven’t even shaken off the green shades of summer. In Maine, forest rangers reported less than 70% color change and modest leaf drop.(通常，到9月底，美国各地的树叶都会呈现出暖色调。但今年，许多地区甚至还没有摆脱夏天的绿色阴影。在缅因州，护林员报告说只有不到70%的颜色变化和少量的落叶)”可知，今年缅因州的树叶保持绿色的时间较长。故选C。

【9题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第二段“It’s commonly believed that trees, like people, must prepare for winter. When fall arrives, and day length and temperature drop, trees respond by ending green substance production and absorbing remaining nutrients, causing leaves to lose the original color. Greens give way to yellows, reds and oranges that make for dramatic autumn displays.(人们普遍认为树和人一样，必须为冬天做准备。当秋天到来，白天长度和温度下降时，树木的反应是停止产生绿色物质，吸收剩余的营养物质，导致树叶失去原来的颜色。绿色让位于黄色、红色和橙色，它们构成了引人注目的秋季展示)”可知，第二段主要讲树叶颜色变化的原因。故选B。

【10题详解】

词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Delay of the start of the fall colors, which has been moving later into the fall, could continue. “My observations in the last decade have had more years that were later than what we consider historical averages. It can be a trend as the planet warms,” said the expert Jim Salge.(秋色开始推迟的时间可能会继续。秋色开始的时间一直推迟到秋天。“我在过去十年的观察中发现，比我们认为的历史平均水平晚的年份更多。随着地球变暖，这可能成为一种趋势，”专家Jim Salge说)”可知，秋天树叶开始变色的时间延迟了，要进入秋天一段时间才变色，这一趋势将延续。在过去的十年中，有超过一半的年份树叶变色的时间晚于历史平均时间。这是受全球变暖影响而出现的一种趋势。故“trend”意指“树叶变色延迟”。故选D。

【11题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Leaf peeping can stay part of the area’s feature if forests are given enough protection. “If we can keep them unharmed, they’ll provide things we’ve depended on, as well as fall inspiration,” said Finton.(如果森林得到足够的保护，赏枫叶可以成为该地区的特色之一。Finton说：“如果我们能让它们毫发无损，它们将提供我们赖以生存的东西，以及秋天的灵感。”)”结合本文讲述的是，美国很多地区的树叶在秋季依然保持着绿色，给树木本身和经济带来了不利的影响。文章探讨了这一现象的原因，即气候变化导致树叶变色延迟。由此可知，作者的写作目的在于引发读者对这一问题的关注，呼吁人们应对气候变化，保护森林。故选D。

Jason, a straight-A student from the University of Pennsylvania, uses the term “pseudo-working” to describe how many of us study. The pseudo-worker looks and feels like someone who is working hard- he or she spends a long time in the library and is not afraid to push on late into the night——but, because of a lack of focus and concentration, he or she doesn’t actually accomplish much.

This phenomenon can be seen on most college campuses. For example, at Dartmouth there was a section of the main library that was open twenty-four hours a day, and the students I used to see there late at night crowded in groups, drinking coffee, were definitely pseudo-working. The roommate who flips through (快速翻转) her chemistry notes on the couch while watching TV is pseudo-working.

By placing themselves in distracting environments and insisting on working long hours, these students are damaging their brain’s ability to think clearly and efficiently accomplish the task at hand. In the end they get half the results with twice the effort.

The bigger problem here is that most students don’t even realize that they’re pseudo-working. To them pseudo-working is work- it’s how they’ve always done it, and it’s how all of their friends do it. It never crosses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students, on the other hand, know all about pseudo-working. They fear it. It not only wastes time, but it’s also mentally tiring.

In fact, the most important skill in becoming a straight-A student is the ability to get work done quickly and with a minimum of wasted effort. Some cognitive (认知) science research concludes that about fifty minutes is the optimal learning period to maximize the material integrated per time unit. So how do these students achieve this goal? To understand their secret to success, consider the following simple formula (公式): work accomplished = time spent × intensity of focus.

Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to accomplish something by pseudo-working, you need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A approach on the other hand, increases intensity in order to use less time.

12. Which of the following phenomenon is pseudo-working?

A. Tom is busy taking notes while attending a lecture.

B. Mike is sitting at a schoolroom in preparation for a final exam quietly.

C. Jack spends a long time in the library on his essay while listening to music.

D. Alice and Sara are sitting on the couch reading their favorite books.

13. Compared with straight-A students, the major problem of most students is that ________.

A. they want to spend more time on study

B. they are eager to follow their friends’ way

C. they have got used to their study approach

D. they are unaware of their pseudo-working

14. What does the underlined word “optimal” mean in paragraph 5?

A. Last B. Best C. Least D. Worst

15. What does the author want to stress by mentioning the formula?

A. Concentration plays a key role in study.

B. The length of time on study counts.

C. Getting work done quickly means everything.

D. Effective study approach is very important.

【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲解了“伪工作”的一些表现和其危害，并建议大家提高专注度，提高效率。

【12题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章第二段“This phenomenon can be seen on most college campuses. For example, at Dartmouth there was a section of the main library that was open twenty-four hours a day, and the students I used to see there late at night crowded in groups, drinking coffee, were definitely pseudo-working. The roommate who flips through her chemistry notes on the couch while watching TV is pseudo-working. (这种现象在大多数大学校园中都可以看到。例如，在达特茅斯，主图书馆有一个部分是 24 小时开放的，我以前在深夜看到的学生成群结队地喝咖啡，绝对是伪工作。一边看电视一边在沙发上翻阅她的化学笔记的室友是伪工作。)”可知，以上的现象都是“伪工作”。C项“Jack spends a long time in the library on his essay while listening to music. (杰克一边听音乐一边在图书馆里写论文很长时间。)”与以上例子相似，都是将自己置于分散注意力的环境中并坚持长时间工作，故选C项。

【13题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The bigger problem here is that most students don’t even realize that they’re pseudo-working. To them pseudo-working is work—it’s how they’ve always done it, and it’s how all of their friends do it. It never crosses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students, on the other hand, know all about pseudo-working.”(这里更大的问题是大多数学生甚至没有意识到他们是在伪工作。对他们来说，伪工作就是工作——这是他们一直以来的工作方式，也是他们所有朋友的工作方式。他们从来没有想过可能有更好的方法。另一方面，全优学生对伪工作了如指掌。)可知，大多数学生并不了解他们在“伪工作”，但是优等生了解，对于自己要做的工作非常明确。D项“they are unaware of their pseudo-working(他们没有意识到他们的伪工作)”与原文信息相符。故选D。

【14题详解】

词义猜测题。根据文章第五段“In fact, the most important skill in becoming a straight-A student is the ability to get work done quickly and with a minimum of wasted effort. (事实上，成为一名全优学生最重要的技能是能够快速完成工作并尽量减少浪费的精力。)”可知，成为全优学生的最重要技能是快速完成工作，浪费时间最少。根据划线词前面的内容“Some cognitive (认知) science research concludes that about fifty minutes (一些认知科学研究得出结论，大约50分钟……)”可知，此处承接前文，指出就优等生来说他们浪费这最少得时间精力来快速的完成工作任务，这里50分钟则是一个最优化的标准；根据划线词后的句子“maximize the material integrated per time unit(最大化每个时间单位整合的材料)”可知，这50分钟内是可以最大化的整合材料。故划线词与B选项“Best(最优的)”为同义词。故选B。

【15题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章第五段“So how do these students achieve this goal? To understand their secret to success, consider the following simple formula: work accomplished=time spent × intensity of focus(那么这些学生是如何实现这一目标的呢?要了解他们成功的秘诀，可以考虑以下简单的公式：完成的工作=花费的时间×专注的强度)”以及最后一段“Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to accomplish something by pseudo-working, you need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A approach on the other hand, increases intensity in order to use less time. (“伪工作”的特点是聚焦强度很低。因此，要通过伪工作来完成某件事，您需要花费大量时间。另一方面，全A（A等生）的方法会增加聚焦强度以减少时间。)”可知，作者并不支持“伪工作”，所以作者更加支持通过减少时间增加专注强度的方法，故推测作者列出公式是为了强调“专注强度”的重要性。A项“Concentration plays a key role in study. (专注在学习中起着关键作用。)”符合推断。故选A。

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

The most relaxing colors are generally believed to be cool shades such as green and blue. ____16____ So we can often see these colors in hospitals, test centers, and television stations, where people may want some help to ease their nerves and bad emotions.

Home designers note that people often describe rooms painted blue and green as relaxing and comfortable. As a result, architects often use colors from the cool part of the color circle in bedrooms and bathrooms. ____17____

Driving down a highway. you’ll notice that some signs consist of white letters on a dark green background. ____18____ Another place where we see green used is in the “green room” of theaters or television studios because nervous performers are quieted by the color. This is also the reason why doctors wear green clothes in the operating room. And prison cells often paint their walls green for the same effect.

____19____ Our eyes sense color using tiny sensors sensitive to the red light, the green light or the blue light. However, generally they are the most sensitive to the green light. Researchers think that this sensitivity to green objects might affect hormonal production that in turn influences the mood. What’s more, recent studies have shown that when a person looks at the green colored paper or is placed in a green room, their heart rate drops, blood pressure lowers, and muscles relax. ____20____ So next time you’re feeling nervous or upset, please try to focus your eyes on something green instead of red.

A. There was research into colors in ancient times.

B. In contrast, hot colors cause these to rise.

C. Different colors can cause different psychological reactions.

D. Engineers determine such signs won’t get people’s eyes tired.

E. And painters often use blues and greens on walls and ceilings.

F. Scientists have found some evidence for the magic power of green.

G. It is agreed that the two can make us feel calm, balanced and less emotional.

【答案】16. G 17. E 18. D 19. F 20. B

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章说明了最令人放松的颜色就是蓝色和绿色，因为这些颜色能让人放松、减压，因此很多人会把卧室和浴室漆成蓝色或绿色，甚至很多高速公路路标也会采用暗绿色的背景。

【16题详解】

上文“The most relaxing colors are generally believed to be cool shades such as green and blue.”提到了最令人放松的两种颜色：蓝色和绿色；而下文“So we can often see these colors in hospitals, test centers, and television stations, where people may want some help to ease their nerves and bad emotions.”则提到了经常在医院、测试中心和电视台看到这两种颜色，人们可能需要一些帮助来缓解紧张和不良情绪。由此可推知，设空处表明了这两种颜色具有某种功用，所以医院等地方才会经常用到。G项“It is agreed that the two can make us feel calm, balanced and less emotional.(人们一致认为，这两者可以让我们感到平静、平衡、不那么情绪化。)”中的“the two”与上文蓝色和绿色两种颜色对应，“make us feel calm, balanced and less emotional”则对应下文的“help to ease their nerves and bad emotions”。故选G项。

【17题详解】

上文“Home designers note that people often describe rooms painted blue and green as relaxing and comfortable. As a result, architects often use colors from the cool part of the color circle in bedrooms and bathrooms. As a result, architects often use colors from the cool part of the color circle in bedrooms and bathrooms.”提到了家居设计师注意到人们认为漆成蓝色和绿色的卧室很放松和舒适，因此，建筑师经常在卧室和浴室中使用比较冷淡的颜色。由此可知，这一段都是与家居设计相关的内容，故下文也应保持一致。E项“And painters often use blues and greens on walls and ceilings.(油漆工也经常在墙壁和天花板上使用蓝色和绿色。)”中的“walls and ceilings”恰好与上文中的“bedrooms and bathrooms”对应。故选E项。

【18题详解】

上文“Driving down a highway. you’ll notice that some signs consist of white letters on a dark green background.”提到了高速路上的一些标志的背景底色也是暗绿色的；下文“Another place where we see green used is in the “green room” of theaters or television studios because nervous performers are quieted by the color.”提到了另一个经常看到绿色的地方就是剧院或电视演播室的“绿房间”，因为紧张的演员看到绿色能安静下来。由此可推知，设空处应该与使用绿色的原因相关。D项“Engineers determine such signs won’t get people’s eyes tired.(工程师们认为这样的标志不会让人们的眼睛感到疲劳。)”中的“such signs won’t get people’s eyes tired”恰好与上文的“some signs consist of white letters on a dark green background”相对应。故选D项。

【19题详解】

设空处段首，故需要一个总括句。下文“Our eyes sense color using tiny sensors sensitive to the red light, the green light or the blue light. However, generally they are the most sensitive to the green light. Researchers think that this sensitivity to green objects might affect hormonal production that in turn influences the mood.”提到了，我们的眼睛通过对红光、绿光或蓝光敏感的微型传感器来感知颜色，但一般对绿光最敏感。研究人员认为，这种对绿色物体的敏感性可能会影响荷尔蒙的产生，进而影响情绪。F项“Scientists have found some evidence for the magic power of green.(科学家们已经发现了绿色魔力的一些证据。)”中的“Scientists”与下文的“Researchers”对应，且也是在重点强调绿色的作用，与下文对应。故选F项。

【20题详解】

上文“What’s more, recent studies have shown that when a person looks at the green colored paper or is placed in a green room, their heart rate drops, blood pressure lowers, and muscles relax.”提到了当一个人看着绿色的彩纸或被放在绿色的房间里时，他们的心率会下降，血压会降低，肌肉会放松。而下文“So next time you’re feeling nervous or upset, please try to focus your eyes on something green instead of red.”提到了感到紧张或不安时，试着把眼睛集中在绿色而不是红色的东西上。由此可推知，设空处提到了红色这一概念。B项“In contrast, hot colors cause these to rise.(相比之下，火热的颜色使这些上升。)”提到了“火热的颜色”，恰好对应下文的“red”，而these则指代前面的heart rate、blood pressure、muscles。故选B项。

Unfortunately, my father was just a clerk. Times were tough during the Depression, and there were five mouths to feed, besides buying coal and wood for the stove. In order to save money, even on cold winter days, my father would walk the seven miles every day to get to work. No he could never afford to buy me an expensive piano. Though he knew I wanted to play that piano so much» buying it was an extravagance (奢侈品) well beyond our family’s income.

One day after school, I went as usual to the shop window to look at the piano. However, to my surprise and disappointment, the piano had gone. I should not have been surprised as others had the right to buy it, if they could afford to. Tears filled my eyes when I thought of not being able to sec that piano any more.

Disappointed, helpless and sad, I wandered aimlessly up and down the street. After about an hour. I returned home. I had just entered into our house, when I heard my mother calling me. I brushed away my tears and followed the sound of her voice into the dining-room.

I was on the point of saying something when the door opened.
As soon as my father appeared, I hugged him tightly. “Thank you, Dad!” I said. I could see a big smile on his wrinkled face. Regardless of the bad weather, my father had gone to work every day to make money. I cold not imagine how much effort he had made! My father kissed me on the forehead, whispering that he had at last earned enough to buy the piano. Only then did I realize that no gift could measure up to a father’s love.
