Computers are very important to modern life. Many people think that in the future we will use computers in everyday life. It is thought that we won’t have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet. There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts from computers. People will use the Internet to play games, see films and buy food. Also, we can use the Internet to make telephone calls.
Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communication. Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.
Let’s look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We’ll read texts on small pocket computers. The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won’t need to turn to lots of pages and we will save lots of paper. We will use more and more computerized books.
Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop Many people say it is not. It is a pleasure to go into shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers, because paper books may be more friendly. Maybe computers won’t change these two habits.
19. In Paragraph 1 it is thought people will use computers for________.
A. playing games, shopping and making telephone calls
B. making telephone calls, having meals and seeing films
C. seeing films, buying food, and going for holidays

Also, we can use the Internet to make telephone calls. (人们认为我们不必去购物，因为我们可以买到网上商店出售的大多数东西。不会再有书了，因为我们将能够从计算机上获取所有文本。人们将使用互联网玩游戏、看电影和买食物。此外，我们可以使用互联网打电话)”可知，在第1段中，人们认为电脑将可以用来玩游戏、购物、看电影和打电话。故选A项。

(C)
Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself Well, apparently it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains.
Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.
Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the area which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball).
Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.
Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact. Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent for neuroscience of what Einstein’s theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does-well, perhaps you’ll understand why.
23. Mirror neurons can explain .
A. why we cry when we are hurt
B. why we cough when we suffer from a cold
C. why we smile when we see someone else smile
D. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late
24. The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph probably means “ ”.
A. set off B. cut off
C. built up D. broken up
25. We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons .
A. relate to human behavior and interaction
B. control human physical actions and feelings
C. result in bad behavior and social disorders
D. determine our knowledge and language abilities
26. What is the passage mainly about
A. Ways to find mirror neurons. B. Problems of mirror neurons.
C. Existence of mirror neurons. D. Functions of mirror neurons.
【答案】23. C 24. A 25. A 26. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是神经元对于人类的行为和人类互动的作用。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句话“Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. (简单地说，镜像神经元的存在表明，每当我们看到别人做某事时，我们的大脑就会模仿它，不管我们是否真的做了同样的动作。)”可知镜像神经元可以解释为什么我们看到别人微笑时也会微笑。故选C。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段的“A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the ball”) (一组研究人员发现，如果他们让人们听句子（例如:“手握住球”）)”和“when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball) (当这个动作真正被执行时（在这个例子中，实际上是抓住一个球）)”可知，他们在做出句子描述的动作时镜像神经元被触发，因此划线词triggered的意思是“触发”，和set off相近，故选A。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact. (对镜像神经元的研究似乎为我们提供了更多关于人类行为和互动的信息。)”可知镜像神经元与人类行为和互动有关，故选A。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段的疑问句“Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself (你知道当你看到别人打哈欠时自己也开始打哈欠是什么感觉吗？或者置身于大笑的人群中却不笑自己有多难？)”及最后一段的“Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact. (对镜像神经元的研究似乎为我们提供了更多关于人类行为和互动的信息。)”可知，本文主要告诉我们mirror neurons的作用，D项“Functions of mirror neurons.(镜像神经元的功能。)”能概括文章大意。故选D。
(D)
“It’s over! Thank goodness!”
School was over and I was tired. I sat at the front of the school bus.
Janie, the driver, always tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by talking. I try to listen politely, but usually I’m too busy thinking about my day. On this day, however, her talk was worth listening to.
“My father’s ill,” she said to no one in particular. I could see worry in her eyes. I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students with a smile.
With a sudden chance of interest, I asked, “What’s wrong with him ”
With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, “Heart trouble.” Her eyes lowered as she continued, “I’ve already lost my mum, so I don’t think I can stand losing him.” I couldn’t answer. My heart ached for her.
I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died. I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her. I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that.
Suddenly I realized Janie wasn’t only a bus driver, which was just her job. She had a whole world of family and cares too.
I shouldn’t have been so selfish. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant.
I shouldn’t have been so selfish and self-centered. Understanding people is an art.
27. When the students get on the school bus, Janie usually ________.
A. listens to music B. talks about her own worry

29. The writer felt herself selfish because she had ________.
A. thought of Janie as nothing but a driver B. made only a few friends in the school
C. hardly thought of herself D. never listened to others
30. In this passage the writer tries to tell us that ________.
A. losing parents makes people sad and helpless
B. understanding the people around us takes time
C. we should learn to understand the people around us
D. it’s not right to judge the people around us by their clothes
【答案】27. D 28. B 29. A 30. C
【解析】

【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“She always meets students with a smile.(她总是微笑着迎接学生)”可知，当学生们上了校车，Janie通常会微笑着迎接他们。故选D。
【28题详解】

Dogs do not see the world in the same way that we do. They rely on their body language for communication. Read on to see the ways they SHOW their feelings and emotions through their actions and behaviors!
How They Bark
There are several reasons dogs bark. If it is loud and frequent it might be something urgent. Perhaps they sense danger and want to let you know. ____31____Loud barking can also mean that they are in pain. Make sure to pay attention to figure it out!
On Your Feet
____32____It might be a little annoying, but your dogs mean well! This is their way to show their love and loyalty. They only want to be as close to you as possible. It is behavior that they got from their ancestors when they used to run as a pack.
Eye Movement
In certain ways, dogs are like humans. ____33____They look at the ground when they feel tired or sad. Meanwhile, they open their eyes wide and look around when they are excited. A raised eyebrow might mean confusion. Make sure to take these all into account!
Barking At Nothing
Sometimes when our dogs are looking out the window and start barking, we notice there is nothing actually there for the dog to bark at, so why are they barking ____34____Your house is their house, too, and they want any and all intruders (侵入者) to know that they are there.
____35____
If your dog refuses to eat when another dog or human is in the room with them, it is not because of any other reason except for the fact that they do not want to share their food with you. While humans likely don’t think about this because we don’t eat dog food, dogs don’t understand that!
A. Using Their Tails
B. Only Eating Alone
C. They tend to show emotions with their eyes as well.
D. They could be doing this because they are protecting your house.
E. Shorter and softer barks, meanwhile, mean that they want to play.
F. Dogs like to lie on your feet when you are eating dinner or watching TV.
G. They have been waiting for you to come back, and they cannot control their excitement.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是狗如何通过行动和行为来表达自己的感受和情绪。
【31题详解】
空前说“There are several reasons dogs bark. If it is loud and frequent, it might be something urgent. Perhaps they sense danger and want to let you know.(狗叫有几个原因。如果声音很大而且频繁，那可能是紧急的事情。也许他们感觉到了危险，想让你知道。)”，空后说“Loud barking can also mean that they are in pain.(大声的吠叫也可能意味着它们很痛苦。)”，因此空格处应该也是介绍某种吠叫是什么意思，E选项“Shorter and softer barks, meanwhile, mean that they want to play.(同时，更短更柔和的吠声意味着它们想要玩耍。)”介绍了更短更柔和的吠声意味着什么，因此E选项承上启下，符合语境，故选E。
【32题详解】
本段小标题是“On Your Feet(在你的脚上)”，所以本段主要讲狗喜欢在你的脚上，F选项“Dogs like to lie on your feet when you are eating dinner or watching TV.(当你吃饭或看电视时，狗喜欢躺在你的脚上。)”和本段小标题相符合，“on your feet”和小标题“On Your Feet”一致，因此F选项引起下文，符合语境，故选F。
【33题详解】
本段小标题是“Eye Movement(眼睛的活动)”，空后说“They look at the ground when they feel tired or sad. Meanwhile, they open their eyes wide and look around when they are excited. A raised eyebrow might mean confusion.(当他们感到疲倦或悲伤时，他们会看着地面。与此同时，当他们兴奋时，他们会睁大眼睛环顾四周。扬起眉毛可能意味着困惑。)”，这说明狗也会用自己的眼睛的活动来表达情绪，C选项“They tend to show emotions with their eyes as well.(他们也倾向于用眼睛表达情感。)”引出了下文的一些狗会使用的眼睛的活动，也和本段小标题相符合，因此承上启下，符合语境，故选C。
【34题详解】
本段小标题是“Barking At Nothing(无原因地叫)”，空后说“Your house is their house, too, and they want any and all intruders (侵入者) to know that they are there.(你的房子也是它们的房子，它们希望所有的入侵者都知道它们在那里。)”，也就是说狗在保护家，D选项“They could be doing this because they are protecting your house.(他们这么做可能是为了保护你的房子。)”说明了狗无缘无故叫的原因，也就是在保护家，因此D选项承上启下，符合语境，故选D。
【35题详解】
空格处是本段小标题，根据空格下方的内容“If your dog refuses to eat when another dog or human is in the room with them, it is not because of any other reason except for the fact that they do not want to share their food with you.(如果你的狗拒绝吃东西，当另一只狗或人与它在一个房间里，这不是因为任何其他原因，除了事实，他们不想与你分享他们的食物。)”可知，本段主要讲的是狗有时候愿意自己独自吃东西，B选项“Only Eating Alone(只是独自吃)”概括了本段内容，因此可作为小标题，故选B。

【名师点睛】完形填空题旨在考察学生综合运用语言知识的能力。做此题时必须通篇考虑，先掌握大意，再综合运用所学词汇、语法及常识进行推理判断。要想取得高分，重点在于以下三点:
1.通读全文,了解大意，紧紧抓住上下文语境所提供的信息,充分利用各种线索作答。先通读了全文，了解了文章讲述的是出差归来的约翰夫妇，迫不及待想要回家看望可爱的孩子们。没想到帮助朋友家救火竟然救下了自己的两个孩子。
。然后在做题的过程中，便可利用这些信息。例如，第12小题 ，这里并不清楚具体是“安慰”还是“认出”或是“运送”，结合下文“the two badly frightened children into ___13___ arms and started back asking how many more children were down there.可知，约翰先生把救出来的孩子放进等待帮助的手臂中。
2.明确词意,词型,词的搭配,并按上下文需要作答。这篇文章中多次考察到名词，形容词，动词的应用，以及文章细节内容的理解。如第10题，考察了各种副词的意思，又考察了文章细节的理解，根据前文描述房子因失火而热浪滚滚,极其热,热得吓人，由此得出答案。
要提高做完形填空的正确率、尽量减少错误选择，也是要有较高的阅读能力作基础的。因此，平时扩大阅读量、扩大知识面，十分必要。学习英语要靠积累，课堂上要积累，课外更要积累。

Computers are very important to modern life. Many people think that in the future we will use computers in everyday life. It is thought that we won’t have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet. There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts from computers. People will use the Internet to play games, see films and buy food. Also, we can use the Internet to make telephone calls.
Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communication. Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.
Let’s look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We’ll read texts on small pocket computers.

Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself Well, apparently it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains.
Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.
Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the area which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball).
Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.
Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact. Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent for neuroscience of what Einstein’s theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does-well, perhaps you’ll understand why.
23. Mirror neurons can explain .
A. why we cry when we are hurt
B. why we cough when we suffer from a cold
C. why we smile when we see someone else smile
D. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late
24. The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph probably means “ ”.
A. set off B. cut off
C. built up D. broken up
25. We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons .
A. relate to human behavior and interaction
B. control human physical actions and feelings
C. result in bad behavior and social disorders
D. determine our knowledge and language abilities
26. What is the passage mainly about
A Ways to find mirror neurons. B. Problems of mirror neurons.
C. Existence of mirror neurons. D. Functions of mirror neurons.

“It’s over! Thank goodness!”
School was over and I was tired. I sat at the front of the school bus.
Janie, the driver, always tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by talking. I try to listen politely, but usually I’m too busy thinking about my day. On this day, however, her talk was worth listening to.
“My father’s ill,” she said to no one in particular. I could see worry in her eyes. I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students with a smile.
With a sudden chance of interest, I asked, “What’s wrong with him ”
With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, “Heart trouble.” Her eyes lowered as she continued, “I’ve already lost my mum, so I don’t think I can stand losing him.” I couldn’t answer. My heart ached for her.
I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died. I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her. I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that.
Suddenly I realized Janie wasn’t only a bus driver, which was just her job. She had a whole world of family and cares too.
I shouldn’t have been so selfish. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant.
I shouldn’t have been so selfish and self-centered. Understanding people is an art.
27. When the students get on the school bus, Janie usually ________.
A listens to music B. talks about her own worry
C. sits on her seat without words D. meets them with a smile
28. After she learned Janie’s story, the writer thought of ________.
A. her father’s death B. her mother’s pain
C. the ache of her own heart D. the pain of Janie’s parents
29. The writer felt herself selfish because she had ________.
A. thought of Janie as nothing but a driver B. made only a few friends in the school
C. hardly thought of herself D. never listened to others
30. In this passage the writer tries to tell us that ________.
A. losing parents makes people sad and helpless
B. understanding the people around us takes time
C. we should learn to understand the people around us
D. it’s not right to judge the people around us by their clothes

Dogs do not see the world in the same way that we do. They rely on their body language for communication. Read on to see the ways they SHOW their feelings and emotions through their actions and behaviors!
How They Bark
There are several reasons dogs bark. If it is loud and frequent, it might be something urgent. Perhaps they sense danger and want to let you know. ____31____Loud barking can also mean that they are in pain. Make sure to pay attention to figure it out!
On Your Feet

Eye Movement
In certain ways, dogs are like humans. ____33____They look at the ground when they feel tired or sad. Meanwhile, they open their eyes wide and look around when they are excited. A raised eyebrow might mean confusion. Make sure to take these all into account!
Barking At Nothing
Sometimes when our dogs are looking out the window and start barking, we notice there is nothing actually there for the dog to bark at, so why are they barking ____34____Your house is their house, too, and they want any and all intruders (侵入者) to know that they are there.
____35____
If your dog refuses to eat when another dog or human is in the room with them, it is not because of any other reason except for the fact that they do not want to share their food with you. While humans likely don’t think about this because we don’t eat dog food, dogs don’t understand that!
