For the British, the home is a private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person’s home. It is rude to knock on a person’s door if you are not invited. If you are invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any of the items in it cost.
To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses.
Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating. It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.
4. If your British friend invites you to his home you can _________.
A. see anything you like
B. ask how much his house is
C. only see the downstairs that you’re invited into
D. ask the cost of any the items in it
5. When you show your interest and pleasure in American people’s houses, they may be _______.

【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。本文阐述了英国人和美国人对待客人的不同的文化和习俗，以及被邀请的人去做客时需要注意的一些礼仪。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“If you are invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. (如果你被邀请了，不要要求看到英国主人邀请你去的楼下以外的地方。)”可知，如果你被英国主人邀请，主人只会邀请你呆在他家的楼下范围，你的活动范围就是他的楼下范围。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses. (他们可能很乐意带你参观他们的房子。当你对他们的房子表现出兴趣和愉快时，他们也会很高兴。)”可知，当被美国人邀请去他们家，如果你对他们的房子表现出兴趣，他们会非常高兴。故选A项。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before the meal is served.(英国人和美国人在上菜前都会engage in聊上几句，喝上一两杯。)”可知，英国人和美国人都会在饭前聊上几句，喝上一两杯。因此，划线词engage in可理解为“参加，参与”。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“For the British, the home is a private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person’s home. (对英国人来说，家是一个私人的地方，是他们躲避生活烦恼的地方。很少有人会被邀请到英国人的家里去做客)”以及第二段“To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. (对美国人来说，他们中的大多数人希望自己的家成为一个可以娱乐和与朋友分享生活的地方)”可知，本文主要阐述了英美人对待客人的不同态度，相对来说，美国人热情好客，英国人认为家应该保持私密性，因此，被邀请去的客人要根据主人的不同，注意相关的拜访礼仪。因此，本文主旨为拜访英美人家的一些礼仪。故选B项。
C
Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts (收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyes these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.
Environmentalists don’t dispute (质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.
8. What has Steven Stein been hired to do
A. Argue for the use of plastic bags.
B. Recycle the waste material.
C. Stop things falling off trucks.
D. Help increase grocery sales.
9. What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers
A. Producing them requires more energy.
B. Replacing them can be difficult.
C. They are less strong than plastic bags.
D. They are quite expensive.
10. What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Plastic bags hung in trees.
B. Effects of city development.
C. Headaches caused by garbage.
D. Bans on plastic bags.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Garbage Collection and Waste Control
B. Industry, Pollution and Environment
C. Recycle or Throw Away
D. Plastic, Paper or Neither
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章谈论了应对塑料袋产生的白色垃圾时，塑料袋供应商选择制造可以重复利用的但成本更高的购物袋，而环保专家却认为塑料袋和纸袋都不要使用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.”（更有趣的是，斯坦因的工作之一是捍卫塑料购物袋背后的行业。）和第二段“Eyes these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.”（面对这些headwinds，塑料袋制造商正在聘请斯坦因这样的科学家来证明他们的产品对地球的危害并不像大多数人想象的那样。）可知，史蒂文·斯坦因受雇是为了主张使用塑料袋。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make.”（然而，更持久的可重复使用的袋子通常需要更多的能量来制造。）可知，根据塑料袋制造商的说法，可重复使用的袋子的缺点是生产它们需要更多的能源。故选A项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles.”（包括洛杉矶在内的加利福尼亚州约90个城市禁止携带这种袋子。）可知，headwinds指代的内容和D项“对于塑料袋的禁止”意思相同。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.”（袋子制造商的论点之一是：许多有禁令的城市仍然允许购物者购买纸袋，纸袋很容易回收，但生产和运输需要更多的能源。虽然塑料袋看起来可能很难看，但它们只占当今地面上所有垃圾的一小部分。）及最后一段“Environmentalists don’t dispute (质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.”（环保专家并不质疑这些观点。他们希望有一天纸袋也会被禁止，并希望购物者多年来使用同样的可重复使用的袋子。）可知，本文主要讲述了不同的人对于使用塑料袋、纸袋或者两者都不用的不同看法。故选D项。
D
A drug used to treat severe bleeding could save thousands of lives for mothers giving birth. A global trial of the drug found it reduced the risk of bleeding deaths during childbirth by nearby one-third. The study involved 20,000 women in 21 countries, mainly in Africa and Asia. The trial was carried out by London’s School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The drug is called tranexamic acid(氨甲环酸). It is low-cost and researchers said it does not cause serious side effects for mothers or babies.
The drug is used to treat mothers for severe bleeding during childbirth, also known as postpartum hemorrhage(产后出血). It is the leading cause of mother’s death worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.
Haleema Shakur is the project director of the trial. She says despite medical advances in many countries, severe bleeding after childbirth remains a big problem in some parts of the world. “It’s one of the biggest killers of mothers. In Africa and Asia, about 10 percent of women will end up with severe bleeding.” The drug works by stopping blood clots(血凝块)from breaking down after a mother gives birth. The treatment can prevent the need for doctors to perform surgery to find the source of bleeding.
Shakur said the best results were reported when the drug was given to women as soon as possible after childbirth, “The earlier you give it—so within the first three hours of giving birth— the better the effect is.”
The next step will be to get the drug where it is needed and provide training for doctors and nurses on how to use it. During the trial, women were given the drug in a hospital. But researchers are looking for easier ways to administer the drug so it can be more widely used in small clinics and rural areas.
12. Tranexamic acid is a drug that ______.
A. should be used for every mother
B. helps mothers before giving birth
C. can help mothers giving birth stop bleeding
D ensures most new-born babies’ health
13. What is the researchers’ next plan
A. To know how much the drug is.
B. To get permission to use the drug.
C. To make medical staff know how to use the drug
D. To let more people know the drug
14. What can we learn from the text
A. The more mothers use the drug, the better its effect is.
B. African and Asian countries made great progress in medicine.
C. Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of women’s death.
D. There is a long way to go before the drug can be used more widely.
15. What may be the best title for the text
A. Care for the Health of Mothers
B. How Can We Use Tranexamic Acid Well
C. What’s the Biggest Killer of Mothers
D. Childbirth Drug Greatly Reduces Bleeding Deaths
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了氨甲环酸可以大大减少产妇出血造成的死亡率，此药物也会进一步进行推广应用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The drug is used to treat mothers for severe bleeding during childbirth, also known as postpartum hemorrhage(产后出血).”（该药物用于治疗分娩期间严重出血的母亲，也称为产后出血。）可知，氨甲环酸是一种可以帮助分娩的母亲止血的药物。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The next step will be to get the drug where it is needed and provide training for doctors and nurses on how to use it.”（下一步将是将药物送到需要的地方，并为医生和护士提供如何使用药物的培训。）可知，下一步需要做的是让医疗工作者熟知这种药的使用方法。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But researchers are looking for easier ways to administer the drug so it can be more widely used in small clinics and rural areas.”（但研究人员正在寻找更简单的给药方法，以便在小型诊所和农村地区更广泛地使用。）可知，这种药物要得到更广泛的应用还有很长的路要走。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A drug used to treat severe bleeding could save thousands of lives for mothers giving birth.”（一种用于治疗严重出血的药物可以挽救数千名分娩母亲的生命。）可知，本文主要介绍一种能够大大减少产妇产后出血死亡的药物，D项“分娩药物大大减少出血死亡”最能概括全文内容，适合作为标题。故选D项。

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。
Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
___16___ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. ___17___
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
___18___ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “___19___ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. ___20___
A. In general the person feels excited and ready to act.
B. They say that laughter is much healthier than anger.
C. Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it.
D. Anger may cause you a cancer.
E. Do not express your anger while angry.

G. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger.
【答案】16. F 17. A 18. G 19. E 20. B
【解析】
【分析】本文讲述生气、发怒是人正常的情绪之一，对待怒气的不同处理方式却影响一个人的健康。
【16题详解】
考查的是上下文的语境理解能力。从首句“Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it.”及从空后面不同人处理生气的不同方式说明生气是一种正常的情感，处理方式可能会导致其具有破坏性。故F项正确，
【17题详解】

【18题详解】
考查的是上下文的语境理解能力。 从后文“They say the first step is to admit that…, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about”等可推知这些是医生给出的如何正确处理生气的解决方案。故G正确。
【19题详解】
考查的是上下文的语境理解能力。根据后文“Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”可知生气时要等到冷静下来且能平静、合理地表达时才宣泄情绪。由此可知生气时不要表达。故正确答案为E。
【20题详解】
考查的是上下文的语境理解能力。根据空前“…a good way to deal with anger is to find humor…”及常识可知幽默会带来笑声。由此可知笑声比生气健康得多。故B为正确答案。

For the British, the home is a private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person’s home. It is rude to knock on a person’s door if you are not invited. If you are invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any of the items in it cost.
To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses.
Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating. It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.
4. If your British friend invites you to his home, you can _________.
A. see anything you like
B. ask how much his house is

Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts (收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyes these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.
Environmentalists don’t dispute (质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.
8. What has Steven Stein been hired to do
A. Argue for the use of plastic bags.
B. Recycle the waste material.
C. Stop things falling off trucks.
D. Help increase grocery sales.
9. What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers
A. Producing them requires more energy.
B. Replacing them can be difficult.
C. They are less strong than plastic bags.
D. They are quite expensive.
10. What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Plastic bags hung in trees.
B. Effects of city development.
C. Headaches caused by garbage.
D. Bans on plastic bags.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Garbage Collection and Waste Control
B. Industry, Pollution and Environment
C. Recycle or Throw Away
D. Plastic, Paper or Neither
D
A drug used to treat severe bleeding could save thousands of lives for mothers giving birth. A global trial of the drug found it reduced the risk of bleeding deaths during childbirth by nearby one-third. The study involved 20,000 women in 21 countries, mainly in Africa and Asia. The trial was carried out by London’s School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The drug is called tranexamic acid(氨甲环酸). It is low-cost and researchers said it does not cause serious side effects for mothers or babies.
The drug is used to treat mothers for severe bleeding during childbirth, also known as postpartum hemorrhage(产后出血). It is the leading cause of mother’s death worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.
Haleema Shakur is the project director of the trial. She says despite medical advances in many countries, severe bleeding after childbirth remains a big problem in some parts of the world. “It’s one of the biggest killers of mothers. In Africa and Asia, about 10 percent of women will end up with severe bleeding.” The drug works by stopping blood clots(血凝块)from breaking down after a mother gives birth. The treatment can prevent the need for doctors to perform surgery to find the source of bleeding.
Shakur said the best results were reported when the drug was given to women as soon as possible after childbirth, “The earlier you give it—so within the first three hours of giving birth— the better the effect is.”
