19、E. analyzed F. surveyG. involving H maintain. I. abandon J. outweigh K. overall The friendships never fail to light up our lives. But their power could get stronger with age, and even _35_ family relationships.A researcher team from Michigan State University, US, recently discovered the large role f

20、riendships play in our lives. According to the researchers, friendships can “make a world of difference”, and even influence how we respond to illness. The research involved two studies. The first one looked at survey data _36_ over 270000 participants of all ages from nearly 200 countries. They wer

21、e asked information about their relationship, health and happiness.The results showed that both family relationships and friendships were linked to better health and happiness _37_. However, as people grow older, friendships bee more important than family relationships when it es to _38_ health and

22、happiness.In the second study, the researchers _39_ data from a survey of nearly 8000 adults in the US. The studys aim was to explore if relationships are related to chronic health problems.It turned out that friendships play an important role in how older adults feel. If you have supportive friends

23、, and you are more likely to be happier and free from health concerns. This goes the other way, too. If your friendships bee a _40_ of stress, youre more likely to experience chronic illness, such as high blood pressure and cancer.“_41_ of these studies show that friendships predict day-to-day happi

24、ness and ultimately how long well live, more so than spousal and family relationships,” William Chopik, lead author of the researcher, told the Daily Mail.For Chopik, this finding was not a surprise. Friendships are optional we hang on to the ones that make us feel good and _42_ those that dont but

25、no one can choose his or her family. This means it is more challenging to deal with serious and negative interactions from within our families. “Friendships help us stave off loneliness but are often harder to _43_ across the lifespan,” Chopik told VOA.“If a friendship has _44_ the test of time, you

26、 know it must be a good one a person you turn to for help and advice often and a person you wanted in your life,” he added.III. Reading prehension（56分）Section ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word o

27、r phrase that best fits the context.As a new mother, you may be disturbed in the middle of the night by your crying baby. But there is good 45 for all those frustrated mothers, and that is baby sign language. Now, you can 46 municate with your baby by teaching him / her sign language. 47 you decide

28、to teach your baby sign language, you should proceed slowly. Do not try to make too many 48 at one time that would only confuse your little one. Start with physical objects like toy, bottle, milk where you can show the object. The most important words that the baby should 49 are food, milk, thirst,

29、bathroom, more, etc. Say the word while making the gestures. 50 making the same gestures every time the baby 51 that object or engages in that activity. Within a few weeks, the baby will start using the sign. Introduce a 52 sign, only when he / she has pletely learned the previous one. Do not force

30、the baby, if he/she does not respond to the 53 of sign language.If the baby 54 to the sign language in a positive manner, start adding new signs. You can also make use of 55 books and pictures to teach him/her new signs. It has been observed that babies who master sign language by the 56 of 3, have

31、more vocabulary than other babies of the same age. Baby sign language 57 helps to improve the future munication skills of your child. If you carry on with this exercise, your baby will be able to municate most of his / her needs and demands successfully. That would mean no frustration for your baby,

A. courage B. patienceC. spirit D. experienceSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followe

35、d 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.（A）Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and

36、a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness（孤独） can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most mon type. It usually disappears

37、quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a particular situation-for example, a family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headache

38、s and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year.The third kind of loneliness is the more severe. Unlike the second type, chronic（慢性的） loneliness usually last more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and bein

39、g close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.Psychologists（心理学家） agree that one important factor in loneliness is a persons social contacts, e.g, friends, family members, co-workers, etc. We depend on various

40、 people for different reasons. For instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should

41、have more. They question their own popularity.Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational

42、 loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be very sad, and sometime dangerous.60. How would you treat temporary loneliness according to the passage?A. Talk to friends.B. just ignore itC. Go to see a doctorD. Ask your teacher for guidance61.Why do psychologists want to

43、 help chronically lonely people?A. Chronic loneliness can cause family problems.B. Chronic loneliness can cause serious illness.C. Chronic loneliness can not be overe.D. A, B, and C are all correct.62. What is the best title for the passage?A. Three kinds of LonelinessB. Loneliness and DiseasesC. Lo

But have you ever given a thought to the science behind this problem?Oliver OReilly, a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Califo

52、rnia Berkeley, US, began trying to solve this mystery after noticing that his young daughter could never keep her shoelaces tied. With the help of two of his graduate students, OReilly ran real-world experiments in search of a reasonable explanation. “We looked like crazy academics because we were j

53、ust walking the halls of Berkeley watching our shoelaces e united,” says OReillys student Christine Gregg. She ran on a treadmill so the team could film her shoes to catch the details.They found that shoelace knot failure happens in a matter of seconds, thanks to a plex interaction of forces.The mai

54、n cause, according to OReily, is inertial forces. Normally, a strong knot has many turns, held together by the friction at its center. The more turns there are, the easier it is to keep it tight.However, stomping ones foot could produce an acceleration at the base of the knot. Meanwhile, the laces w

55、hip back and forth, pulling at the ends like an invisible hand. Finally, the knot reaches a point where the acceleration wins over the friction, and it es undone all at once.“Once you have a little bit of slip, all the forces change, until the slip gets bigger and bigger,” said Gregg. At that point,

56、 it only takes a bit of movement for the entire knot to e undone.The team also found that acceleration or whipping alone isnt enough. They spent an hour swinging their legs and then stomping on the ground, both with little effect. Next, they built a pendulum machine, added weights to the ends of lac

57、es, and swung the knots back and forth. As expected, knots failed more often with heavier weights, because the inertial forces were greater.The researchers are confident that their work could shed light on other knotted structures, such as the structure of DNA. “Were not just trying to figure out wh

58、y shoelaces e united,” Gregg told New Scientist.” We think this could be applied to anything that uses entanglement. A knot is really just and entangled linear structure.”66. Which of the following statements is TRUE about OReillys experiments, according to the article? A. He filmed people walking a

59、nd running to examine the cause of knot failure. B. He used puter models to describe situations of knot failure. C. He wanted to explain why it takes a long time before shoelaces bee untied. D. He got the idea while teaching his daughter to tie her shoelaces.67. We can learn from the article that _

60、A. short shoelaces bee undone more easily B. more friction on shoelaces could keep the knot tighter C. most knot failures are caused by whipping or stomping D. heavier shoes are less likely to get untied68. Which of the following statements would Christine Gregg agree with? A. The heavier the weight

61、s added to the ends of laces, the more easily knots untie. B. The future benefit of the research on shoelaces is still unclear. C. People will soon solve the trouble of untied shoelaces. D. People could stop knot failures by removing inertia force. ( D )Have you ever been afraid? Do thunder and lightning make your heart beat faster?
