12、 percent of 384 interviewees were once asked by friends or relatives to cast votes online for their children. The contests range from the “cutest baby” to dancing competitions, but in many cases the people receiving the messages havent heard from the sender for a long time and have never met the chi

13、ld involved.Although the competitions may appear to be harmless fun, some education professionals are concerned that they could have a negative effect on children.Tang Sulan, a member of the CPPCCs National Committee (全国政协委员会), proposed a ban on online competitions featuring children to prevent futu

B I am often asked how I started Pajama(睡衣) Program but honestly, I feel like Pajama Program happened to

19、 me, not the other way around. I never set out to start a non-profit, nor did I have a desire to turn my life upside down. All I asked for was a little purpose to my life. And you know what they say, be careful what you ask for. I visited a safe house for abused and abandoned children. My intention

20、was to read with the children in the evening, once a week after my work day. I loved my marketing job and planned to continue advancing my career for many years to come. One night as I said goodbye to the children I watched them go into a nearby room to sleep. They slowly climbed onto couches and fu

21、tons. Some were crying and the staff tried to comfort them and ease them onto a soft surface. There was no changing of their clothes, no bedtime stories, no hugs from moms or dads. I was puzzled. This was not the way bedtime was supposed to be for a child. I waited for the staff to finish with the c

As the children came into the room to sit and read with me, I gave each one a pair of pajamas. One little girl wouldnt take pajamas from

23、 me. She stood perfectly still, looked up at me, and asked in a whisper, What are these? Theyre pajamas, I said. Where do I wear them? I answered her, To bed at night. She looked at me, puzzled. What do you usually wear to bed? I asked her. My pants, she said quietly. My heart sank. It was at that m

A friend of a lonely person was fifty-two percent more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. And a fr

28、iend of that friend was twenty-five percent more likely to do the same. Earlier findings showed that happiness, obesity(肥胖) and the ability to stop smoking can also spread like infections within social groups. The findings all come from a major health study in the American town of Framingham, Massac

29、husetts. The study began in 1948 to investigate the causes of heart disease. Since then, more tests have been added, including measures of loneliness and depression. The new findings involved more than five thousand people in the second generation of the Framingham Heart Study. The researchers exami

30、ned friendship histories and reports of loneliness. The results established a pattern that spread as people reported fewer close friends. For example, loneliness can affect relationships between next-door neighbors. The loneliness spreads as neighbors who were close friends now spend less time toget

31、her. The study also found that loneliness spreads more easily among women than men. The average person is said to experience feelings of loneliness about forty-eight days a year. The study found that having a lonely friend can add about seventeen days. But every additional friend can decrease loneli

32、ness by two and a half days. Lonely people become less and less trusting of others. This makes it more and more difficult for them to make friendsand more likely that society will reject(排斥) them. John Cacioppo at the University of Chicago led the study. He says it is important to recognize and deal

33、 with loneliness. He says people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their social networks.28.

35、assage?A. Bring them together.B. Make friends with them.C. Help them stop smoking.D. Help them loose weight.31. Which of the following would be the topic of the passage?A. Loneliness and social net work.B. Social Networks and friendship.C. Loneliness and diet.D. Help A Lonely Person.D Normal human e

36、yes contain three kinds of color-detecting cells called cones(视锥), and by comparing the way these cones are each stimulated by incoming light, our brains distinguish red wavelengths from green and blue wavelengths from yellow. Dogs eyes, like those of most other mammals, contain just two kinds of co

37、nes. These enable their brains to distinguish blue from yellow, but not red from green. According to Jay Neitz, a color vision scientist at the University of Washington who conducted many of the modern experiments on color perception in dogs, our pets eyes are structured in a similar way to those of

38、 red-green color-blind people, whose eyes also lack the third kind of cone normally present in humans. We can get an idea of what dogs see, Neitz said, if we assume their brains interpret signals from their cone cells much like the brains of color-blind people. To see blue and yellow, dogs and human

39、s alike rely on neurons inside the eyes retina(视网膜). These neurons are excited in response to yellow light detected in the cone cells (which are also inside the retina), but the neurons activity gets suppressed when blue light hits the cones. A dogs brain interprets the excitation or suppression of

40、these neurons as the sensation(感觉) of yellow or blue, respectively. However, in dogs and color-blind individuals, red light and green light both have a neutral effect on the neurons. With no signal to interpret these colors, the dogs brains dont perceive any color. Where you see red or green, they s

41、ee shades of gray. A human would be missing the sensations of red and green, Neitz told Lifes Little Mysteries. But whether or not the dogs sensations are missing red and green, or if their brains assign colors differently, is unclear. Furthermore, like color-blind people, dogs may use other cues to

42、 distinguish the color we call red from the color we call green. A lot of the time there are good cues to help them figure it out; for example, red objects tend to be darker than green objects, Neitz said. So, if its a dark apple, a red-green color-blind person would know that its probably a red one

43、, and if its a lighter apple, it may be a Granny Smith.32. A few persons cannot tell red from green because .A. they lack the first kind of coneB. they lack the second kind of coneC. they lack the third kind of coneD. they lack all the three cones33. The underlined word suppressed in Paragraph three

44、 means .A. Brought upB. Kept downC. Broken outD. Taken away34. According to Neitz, it is still uncertain whether or not .A. red and green lights have a neutral effect on dogsB. red and green lights have a neutral effect on the color-blindC. the dogs sensations are short of red and greenD. dogs brain

45、s assign colors in the same way as common people35. A Granny Smith at the end of the article refers to a .A. common womanB. color-blind womanC. red appleD. green apple第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to be a Good Team LeaderTeamwork is essential in school, sports, an

55、to say (like pleasant mother, pheasant plucker, which is who you had to go to for the feathers used on the arrows for the longbow), the difficult consonant(辅音的) group at the beginning has gradually changed to an F, and thus the 58 often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute are 59 thought t
