11、tball stars.In 2005, the Haizes adopted them. Then, they moved to the UK when Joy was six and Miriam was seven. The girls discovered the wheelchair basketball through a chance conversation, which Mr. Haize had with a friend in 2011. They hadnt known wheelchair sports before, but Joy was hooked from

12、the beginning. While Miriam loved the sport, it took her a little longer to become a serious athlete. “I used to have really low selfrespect，” she said. “Its only when Joy got into the Under 25s European Championships in 2013 that I started to take basketball seriously. It gave me a path to follow.”

13、 Miriam was then chosen to play at both regional trials and the Sainsburys School Games in 2014.

At that time, many of us wish we could have a small bed next to our

21、 desks where we can take a rest! Sometimes, we even get a sense of guilt for fear that we may commit some mistakes in the work we are doing at that time. Some people may think that there must be something wrong with their health.Usually, our lunch consists of heavy foods that make the stomachs full.

22、 So, most of the blood is directed toward the stomachs where the digestion is taking place. As a result, the brain receives much less amount of oxygen than it usually gets. This condition gives rise to drowsiness which is also accompanied by a sense of tiredness. During digestion of the foods, stoma

23、ch acids are produced to help with digestion but they also change the pH values of the blood and make it alkaline (碱性的). Generally speaking, the pH values of the blood from 7.357.45 are normal. This alkalinity of blood can lead to the drowsy feeling. If you observe carefully, you will find that when

24、 you eat foods like pasta or bakery products, you tend to feel sleepier.

25、m drinks rich in caffeine, such as coffee. The fact is that it can make you think clearly only for a brief period of time. After that, you will start feeling sleepy all over again.

28、y do something wrong in the work.解析：选D细节理解题。由第一段中的“Sometimes, we even get a sense of guilt for fear that we may commit some mistakes in the work we are doing at that time.”可知，人们担心因为犯困而在工作中犯错，所以有罪恶感。故选D项。10The underlined word “drowsy” in the first paragraph means “_”AnegativeBexcitedCenergeticDsleepy

29、解析：选D词义猜测题。由画线单词后面的“we find it difficult to keep our eyes open”以及“wish we could have a small bed next to our desks where we can take a rest”可知，此处指午饭后犯困，由此可推测，drowsy意为“困的；昏昏欲睡的”，与sleepy意思相近。11Whats the main idea of the last paragraph?AHow to get rid of our bad eating habits.BHow to improve our health

30、 without much effort.CHow to get rid of sleepiness in the afternoon.DHow to keep our blood flowing at a normal speed.解析：选C段落大意题。根据文章最后一段的内容可知，本段主要讲述了如何通过改变午饭结构、饭后散步等方式消除午后疲倦。故选C项。DIf your parents were to surprise you with a present on your birthday, which one would you prefer, a trip to the amusemen

31、t park or a new pair of shoes?According to Science Daily, about onethird of the people are likely to prefer shoes to a fun trip. These people are called “materialists”， namely, those who value material goods more than experiences. But which of the two choices makes people happier?Back in 2009, Ryan

32、Howell, a professor at San Francisco State University, found that in the long run, experiences make people happier than possessions. This is because the joy of receiving a new object fades over time as you get used to seeing it every day. Experiences, on the other hand, can continue to bring you joy

33、 in the future through happy memories.But materialists should at least be happy when they first buy something, shouldnt they?To figure it out, Howell did another study. He classified a group of adults according to their personality types, ranging from less materialistic to more materialistic. Each p

34、erson was asked different questions to see how they felt about spending money on material goods versus spending money on experiences.As expected, the more materialistic participants got less happiness from purchases than the less materialistic, because such purchases didnt fit with their personaliti

35、es and values. But to Howells surprise, he found that materialists werent any happier even if they spent money on material items.This is because materialists worry that others may criticize or look down on their choices. “There are certain value systems that are rejected by society，” said Howell. “W

36、hen we find out someone is materialistic, we think less of them, and that drives their happiness down.”Another reason is that materialistic people always focus on what they dont have instead of what they have now. This makes them feel less satisfied and grateful.If you happen to be a materialistic p

37、erson, theres something you can try. “If materialists make more accurate purchases, rather than trying to impress others, they will be happier，” Howell said.You should also remember what an ancient Greek philosopher once said, “Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember what

38、you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.”语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文，作者通过引用Ryan Howell的研究结果证实经历比有形物质更能给人带来快乐。12What did Ryan Howell find in his studies?AMaterial goods bring people less happiness than experiences.BAbout onethird of the people prefer material goods to experiences.CMaterialists ha

39、ve more fun spending money on goods than on experiences.DReceiving a new object brings lasting joy while the joy of an experience fades soon.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“.found that in the long run, experiences make people happier than possessions”可知，经历比物品更能使人感到高兴。根据第六段中的“the more materialistic participants g

40、ot less happiness from purchases than the less materialistic”可知，比较倾向物质主义的参与者比不太倾向物质主义的参与者从购物中得到的快乐更少。由此可见，Ryan Howell在他的研究中发现：有形物质比经历给人带来的快乐更少。因此，该题选A。13What did Ryan Howell want to find out by doing another study?AHow to judge whether a person is a materialist.BWhy materialists are not happy with t

41、heir purchases.CHow materialists feel when they spend money on goods.DWhether materialists are happy when they first make purchases.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第四段及第五段第一句“To figure it out, Howell did another study”可知该题选D。14Why does the author use the ancient Greek philosophers words in the last paragraph?ATo advis

42、e materialistic people not to try to impress others.BTo persuade people to be satisfied with what they have.CTo prove its unwise to be materialistic and desire too much.DTo tell readers what they desire now might one day become theirs.解析：选B推理判断题。根据最后一段中那位哲学家的话“不要因期望你没有的东西而毁掉了你现在拥有的东西。记住：你现在拥有的东西就在你曾

43、经渴望得到的东西之中”，再结合上文Ryan Howell研究得出的结论可知，作者引用这位哲学家的话旨在说服人们要对目前拥有的事物感到知足。因此，该题选B。15What can be the best title for the passage?AAre You a Materialist?BHow to Acquire Happiness?CThe Best Present for the BirthdayDWhich Can Make People Happier?解析：选D标题归纳题。通读全文可知，作者通过引用Ryan Howell的研究结果证实经历比有形物质更能给人带来快乐，故D项作文章
