阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Everyone has their favourite Bond songs with the 007 movies offering so many different musical outings over the years from classic rock and pop to soul and even dance. Let us know in the comments.
Golden Eye — Tina Turner
Golden Eye (1995)
Golden Eye sees a cat-like Turner wandering about throughout its sound stage, flashing her claws where necessary. Its sweeping arrangement and sentimental brass (感伤的铜管乐) contribute to a powerful vocal performance. The strings are mixed with horns that sound like a passing train. This is effortless singing from Turner and her amazing control is a joy to hear.
Tomorrow Never Dies — Sheryl Crow
Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)
This rock/pop little number has always felt rather clear to the listeners. It is a bit Bond-aping (邦德式模仿) rather than creating something new all by itself, which is what it should ideally be aiming for. Crow gives it her all with her soft voice.
You Know My Name — Chris Cornell
Casino Royal (2006)
Right from the brilliantly exciting intro, the whole track just sounds so strong, as if it was chiseled (镌刻) out of the very finest stone. A lot of this is down to Chris Cornell’s powerful and deeply rich voice. One of the greatest singers of his generation, he absolutely nails this track.
Writing’s On The Wall — Sam Smith
Spectre (2015)
The title theme that most people can’t actually remember. By all accounts, Sam Smith’s Writing’s On The Wall was written very quickly, and frankly, it shows. Far from being a terrible song, it just lacks basically everything that a Bond theme needs. Sure, it certainly feels empty.
1. Who gives an impression of joy to hear through his/her voice
A. Tina Turner. B. Sheryl Crow.
C. Chris Cornell. D. Sam Smith.
2. How does the song Tomorrow Never Dies sound to the listeners
A. Sweet. B. Strong. C. Gentle. D. Terrible.
3. Which song lacks a Bond theme according to the author
A. Golden Eye.
B. Tomorrow Never Dies.
C. You Know My Name.
D Writing’s On The Wall.
B
First, I thought I was pregnant (怀孕的). Shortly after, I had a shooting pain in my stomach. Finally, I went to the emergency room and they said, “Listen, something is wrong.” Then I was told I might lose my hair for my wedding due to the chemical treatment.
When it came out, I just felt like I wanted to shave it. I didn’t want to sit around and wait for my hair to fall out. I wanted to have control in a situation where I had zero control. This was the one area I could have some sort of control.
I went to a hair salon that day, and it was super emotional. I cried in the chair the whole time. I was terrified to see that my head looked like bald (秃头的). I didn’t know whether it was going to be malformed or not and I couldn’t help worrying whether there was any unnatural part on it. I also have a mole (胎记) on my head that I’ve always been really self-conscious about.
Once I got home, I realized my head was extremely round and the mole wasn’t that noticeable. Over time, I actually enjoyed being bald. I never had to do my hair. Getting ready was quick and easy. I just knew it was something I couldn’t control, and I needed to accept it and learn to love myself in a new way.
Even when I was first diagnosed (诊断), there was no way I was going to sit there and feel sorry for myself. I told myself, “I’m gonna get up. I’m gonna fight this thing. I’m not going to lose.” I always said I would win.
Looking at things in a positive way really helped me, so that’s what I did with my bald head. I would say, “Yeah, this sucks, but at least I don’t have to wash my hair. At least I don’t have to dry it. At least I can get ready in five minutes.” I always tried to put a positive spin on it.
4. Why did the author shave her head bald
A. To do chemical treatment.
B. To save her from hairdressing.
C. To get ready for her wedding.
D. To avoid feeling uncontrollable.
5. What does the underlined word “malformed” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Ill-treated.
B. Bright-colored.
C. Badly-shaped.
D. Well-protected.
6. Which of the following can best describe the author
A. Outgoing and brave.
B. Strong and positive.
C. Confident and friendly.
D. Anxious and negative.
7. What can we learn from the story
A Life is too precious to lose.
B. God never closes all doors.
C. Determination finds a way.
D. Attitude helps win battles.
C
A broken heart. A sad ending to a love affair. That’s something most of us have experienced, or probably will. After all, it’s part of human life. But no question, the experience can be hard to get over.
But research shows there are pathways through the heartache. Listening to sad music is a major one. It can help you begin to feel joy and hopefulness about your life again. It can arouse (激发,唤醒) the desire (渴望) to connect with others.
Sad music can help heal and uplift you from your broken heart. A recent study from Germany found the emotional influence of listening to sad music is an arousal of feelings of empathy (共情), and a desire for positive connection with others. That, itself, is psychologically healing. It draws you away from concentration on yourself, and possibly towards helping others in need of comfort.
Another experiment, from the University of Kent, found that when people were experiencing sadness, listening to music that was “beautiful but sad” improved their mood. In fact, it did so when the person first consciously accept the situation causing their sadness, and then began listening to the sad music. That is, when they intended that the sad music might help, they found that it did.
These findings link with other studies that show accepting your sad situation emotionally leads to healing and growth beyond it. It seems unbelievable but it does make sense. For example, research from Cornell University, published in Psychological Science, found that accepting discomfort about a life experience or new situation, and viewing it as a step towards growth and change, encourages people to find a pathway through it, beyond it. As Churchill famously said, “If you’re going through hell, keep going.” That discomfort points you towards creating a plan, a new action. It fuels hope.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 3 and paragraph 4
A. Sad music can make people help others.
B. Sad music can make sad people feel better.
C. Sad music can make people believe in themselves.
D. Sad music can make people concentrate on themselves.
9. What does Churchill advise us to do when experiencing discomfort
A. Listen to a sad song. B. Avoid unwise actions.
C. Find support from others. D. Face the discomfort directly.
10. How does the author develop this text
A. By listing figures.
B. By giving directions.
C. By comparing examples.
D. By presenting research findings.
11. Which is the best title for the text
A. How to Find Pathways through Heartaches
B. How We React to A Broken Heart Matters a Lot
C. What We Can Do to Overcome Discomfort in Life
D. Why Listening to Sad Music Heals Your Broken Heart
D
People have different ways of dealing with waste paper, specifically used newspapers. Some put them in the recycling area, while others keep them as wrappers (包装纸). While these are both good measures, a Japanese publishing company had a better idea for their end use.
The Mainichi Newspapers Co., Ltd. invented the “Green Newspaper”, which allows people to grow plants with it. This unique newspaper was published on Greenery Day, which is focused on environmental news and made of green paper with seeds placed into it. What makes it even more special is the ink (油墨) used to print words and photos, which is made from plants. The publisher advises readers to tear the used newspaper into small pieces and plant them in a container with soil. They should water them, like they would do for any plant. Within a few weeks, the seeds will grow into plants.
This brilliant concept was invented by Dentsu Inc., one of Japan’s most famous advertising agencies, which works with the publishing company on the initiative (倡议). The publisher’s belief is environmental sustainability (持续性). As its mission statement says, “The Mainichi doesn’t take action only through information, but also by solving global issues.” With joint efforts, this initiative has reached the corners of Japan and sold around millions of copies daily. Other such initiatives producing plantable paper are also seen in India and the US.
About 95 million trees are lost for producing newspapers every year. The Internet, the number of whose users stands for 62.5 percent of the population worldwide, has influenced how people read news and the print readership has dropped greatly. However, the reinvention and reimagination of this newspaper will bring about a change in the publishing industry as well as having an environmental influence.
12. What do we know about the “Green Newspaper”
A. It uses high-tech materials.
B. It provides energy for seeds.
C. It’s printed with plant-based ink.
D. It’s published to celebrate Greenery Day.
13. What message does the publisher’s mission statement convey
A. It’s easier said than done.
B. Everything comes to him who waits.
C. Many hands make light work.
D. Actions speak louder than words.
14. What’s the author’s attitude to the “Green Newspaper”
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive.
C. Indifferent. D. Negative.
15. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A About 59 million trees are lost for producing newspapers.
B. The Internet has changed the way people read news totally.
C. The popularity of the Internet leads to the fall of the print readership.
D. The “Green Newspaper” will encourage more people to protect the environment.

Even when I was first diagnosed (诊断), there was no way I was going to sit there and feel sorry for myself. I told myself, “I’m gonna get up. I’m gonna fight this thing. I’m not going to lose.” I always said I would win.
Looking at things in a positive way really helped me, so that’s what I did with my bald head. I would say, “Yeah, this sucks, but at least I don’t have to wash my hair. At least I don’t have to dry it. At least I can get ready in five minutes.” I always tried to put a positive spin on it.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者患癌后,以积极的心态面对自己因化疗而失去头发的事实,并主动剃光头的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“I wanted to have control in a situation where I had zero control. This was the one area I could have some sort of control. (我想在我没有控制权的情况下拥有控制权。这是我可以控制的一个领域)”可知,作者想要在自己完全无法控制的情况下掌控局面,而剃光头发是作者可以控制的一个领域,所以作者剃光头发是为了避免感到自身情况无法控制。故选D项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“I didn’t know whether it was going to be malformed or not and I couldn’t help worrying whether there was any unnatural part on it. I also have a mole (胎记) on my head that I’ve always been really self-conscious about. (我不知道它是否malformed,我不禁担心它是否有任何不自然的部分。我的头上还有一个胎记,我一直都很在意)”可知,作者的头上有一个胎记,所以作者禁不住担心剃光头发后自己的头上是否有怪异的地方,由此可推知,作者不知道剃光头发的自己是否会变得很难看,推测划线单词malformed表示“难看的,畸形的”,与Badly-shaped同义。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“I told myself, “I’m gonna get up. I’m gonna fight this thing. I’m not going to lose.” I always said I would win. (我告诉自己,“我要站起来。我要和这件事斗争。我不会输。”我一直说我会赢)”和最后一段中“Looking at things in a positive way really helped me, so that’s what I did with my bald head. (以积极的方式看待事情真的帮助了我,所以我就是这样对待我的光头的)”及“I always tried to put a positive spin on it. (我总是试图给它一个积极的解释)”可知,作者非常坚强,也很积极乐观。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Looking at things in a positive way really helped me, so that’s what I did with my bald head. (以积极的方式看待事情真的帮助了我,所以我就是这样对待我的光头的)”以及文章内容可知,本文主要讲述了作者患癌后,以积极的心态面对自己因化疗而失去头发的事实,并主动剃光头的故事,这一故事主要向读者传达了积极乐观的态度有助于战胜病魔这一信息。故选D项。

A broken heart. A sad ending to a love affair. That’s something most of us have experienced, or probably will. After all, it’s part of human life. But no question, the experience can be hard to get over.
But research shows there are pathways through the heartache. Listening to sad music is a major one. It can help you begin to feel joy and hopefulness about your life again. It can arouse (激发,唤醒) the desire (渴望) to connect with others.
Sad music can help heal and uplift you from your broken heart. A recent study from Germany found the emotional influence of listening to sad music is an arousal of feelings of empathy (共情), and a desire for positive connection with others. That, itself, is psychologically healing. It draws you away from concentration on yourself, and possibly towards helping others in need of comfort.
Another experiment, from the University of Kent, found that when people were experiencing sadness, listening to music that was “beautiful but sad” improved their mood. In fact, it did so when the person first consciously accept the situation causing their sadness, and then began listening to the sad music. That is, when they intended that the sad music might help, they found that it did.
These findings link with other studies that show accepting your sad situation emotionally leads to healing and growth beyond it. It seems unbelievable but it does make sense. For example, research from Cornell University, published in Psychological Science, found that accepting discomfort about a life experience or new situation, and viewing it as a step towards growth and change, encourages people to find a pathway through it, beyond it. As Churchill famously said, “If you’re going through hell, keep going.” That discomfort points you towards creating a plan, a new action. It fuels hope.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 3 and paragraph 4
A. Sad music can make people help others.
B. Sad music can make sad people feel better.
C. Sad music can make people believe in themselves.
D. Sad music can make people concentrate on themselves.
9. What does Churchill advise us to do when experiencing discomfort
A. Listen to a sad song. B. Avoid unwise actions.
C. Find support from others. D. Face the discomfort directly.
10 How does the author develop this text
A. By listing figures.
B. By giving directions.
C. By comparing examples.
D. By presenting research findings.
11. Which is the best title for the text
A. How to Find Pathways through Heartaches
B. How We React to A Broken Heart Matters a Lot
C. What We Can Do to Overcome Discomfort in Life
D. Why Listening to Sad Music Heals Your Broken Heart
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是听悲伤音乐能够治愈悲伤的原因。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Sad music can help heal and uplift you from your broken heart.(悲伤的音乐可以帮助你从破碎的心中治愈和振作起来。)”可知,悲伤音乐能帮助人们从新振奋精神,结合第四段中的“Another experiment, from the University of Kent, found that when people were experiencing sadness, listening to music that was “beautiful but sad” improved their mood.(肯特大学的另一项实验发现,当人们感到悲伤时,听“美丽但悲伤”的音乐可以改善他们的情绪。)”可知,实验发现,在人经历悲伤的时候,听悲伤音乐能改善情绪,综上可知,悲伤音乐可以让人们感觉更好。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据尾段中的“As Churchill famously said, “If you’re going through hell, keep going.” That discomfort points you towards creating a plan, a new action. It fuels hope.(正如丘吉尔的名言:“如果你正在经历地狱,那就继续前进。”这种不适会让你制定一个计划,一个新的行动。它点燃了希望。)”可知,丘吉尔认为,如果遭遇困难的时候,要继续前进,这种不适会让你制定计划,开始新的行动,由此可知,丘吉尔是要我们直面困难。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“But research shows there are pathways through the heartache. Listening to sad music is a major one. It can help you begin to feel joy and hopefulness about your life again.(但研究表明,心痛是有解决的途径的。听悲伤的音乐是主要的。它可以帮助你重新感受到生活的快乐和希望。)”、第三段中的“A recent study from Germany found the emotional influence of listening to sad music is an arousal of feelings of empathy (共情), and a desire for positive connection with others.(德国最近的一项研究发现,听悲伤的音乐对情绪的影响是一种同理心的唤起,以及与他人建立积极联系的愿望。)”、第四段中的“Another experiment, from the University of Kent, found that when people were experiencing sadness, listening to music that was “beautiful but sad” improved their mood. (肯特大学的另一项实验发现,当人们感到悲伤时,听“美丽但悲伤”的音乐可以改善他们的情绪。)”以及尾段中的“These findings link with other studies that show accepting your sad situation emotionally leads to healing and growth beyond it. It seems unbelievable but it does make sense.(这些发现与其他研究相联系,这些研究表明,从情感上接受你的悲伤处境会导致愈合和成长。这看起来难以置信,但确实有道理。)”可知,全文中分别介绍了几项不同的研究,并对这些研究进行了分析,这些研究都证明了听悲伤音乐有助于改善人们的情绪,由此可知,作者是通过介绍研究结果展开的。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“A broken heart. A sad ending to a love affair. That’s something most of us have experienced, or probably will. After all, it’s part of human life. But no question, the experience can be hard to get over.(破碎的心。一段恋情的悲惨结局。这是我们大多数人都经历过的,或者可能会经历的。毕竟,这是人类生活的一部分。但毫无疑问,这种经历很难忘记。)”可知,本文通过陈述生活中的客观情况,引出本文的话题,结合下文中的“But research shows there are pathways through the heartache. Listening to sad music is a major one. It can help you begin to feel joy and hopefulness about your life again. It can arouse (激发,唤醒) the desire (渴望) to connect with others. (但研究表明,心痛是有解决途径的。听悲伤的音乐是主要的。它可以帮助你重新感受到生活的快乐和希望。它能唤起与他人联系的欲望。)”可知,心痛的解决途径之一就是听悲伤音乐,进而在下文中列举多个研究发现听悲伤音乐有助于改善人们的情绪,并对这些研究结果进行了分析,由此可知,本文介绍了听悲伤音乐能治愈悲伤的原因,所以本文的标题为“为什么听悲伤音乐能治愈悲伤”与本文内容一致,且概括了本文的主题。故选D项。
D
People have different ways of dealing with waste paper, specifically used newspapers. Some put them in the recycling area, while others keep them as wrappers (包装纸). While these are both good measures, a Japanese publishing company had a better idea for their end use.
The Mainichi Newspapers Co., Ltd. invented the “Green Newspaper”, which allows people to grow plants with it. This unique newspaper was published on Greenery Day, which is focused on environmental news and made of green paper with seeds placed into it. What makes it even more special is the ink (油墨) used to print words and photos, which is made from plants. The publisher advises readers to tear the used newspaper into small pieces and plant them in a container with soil. They should water them, like they would do for any plant. Within a few weeks, the seeds will grow into plants.
This brilliant concept was invented by Dentsu Inc., one of Japan’s most famous advertising agencies, which works with the publishing company on the initiative (倡议). The publisher’s belief is environmental sustainability (持续性). As its mission statement says, “The Mainichi doesn’t take action only through information, but also by solving global issues.” With joint efforts, this initiative has reached the corners of Japan and sold around millions of copies daily. Other such initiatives producing plantable paper are also seen in India and the US.
About 95 million trees are lost for producing newspapers every year. The Internet, the number of whose users stands for 62.5 percent of the population worldwide, has influenced how people read news and the print readership has dropped greatly. However, the reinvention and reimagination of this newspaper will bring about a change in the publishing industry as well as having an environmental influence.
12. What do we know about the “Green Newspaper”
A. It uses high-tech materials.
B. It provides energy for seeds.
C. It’s printed with plant-based ink.
D. It’s published to celebrate Greenery Day.
13. What message does the publisher’s mission statement convey
A. It’s easier said than done.
B. Everything comes to him who waits.
C. Many hands make light work.
D. Actions speak louder than words.
14. What’s the author’s attitude to the “Green Newspaper”
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive.
C. Indifferent. D. Negative.
15. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. About 59 million trees are lost for producing newspapers.
B. The Internet has changed the way people read news totally.
C. The popularity of the Internet leads to the fall of the print readership.
D. The “Green Newspaper” will encourage more people to protect the environment.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一家日本出版公司对废纸的处理。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“What makes it even more special is the ink (油墨) used to print words and photos, which is made from plants.(更特别的是,用于打印文字和照片的墨水是由植物制成的)”可知,打印这种“绿色环保的报纸”的墨水是由植物制成的。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The publisher’s belief is environmental sustainability (持续性). As its mission statement says, “The Mainichi doesn’t take action only through information, but also by solving global issues.” With joint efforts, this initiative has reached the corners of Japan and sold around millions of copies daily.(出版商的信念是环境的可持续性。正如其使命宣言所言,“《每日新闻》不仅通过信息采取行动,还通过解决全球问题采取行动。”在大家的共同努力下,这一创想已经传播到了日本的各个角落,每天的销量达到了数百万份)”可知,出版商的使命宣言和出版商的行为相一致,他们的理念是环境的可持续性,而他们也通过自己的行动践行这一理念。由此推知,选项D“Actions speak louder than words.(事实胜于雄辩)”阐述的正是这家出版商的行为。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“However, the reinvention and reimagination of this newspaper will bring about a change in the publishing industry as well as having an environmental influence.(然而,这份报纸的重塑和再想象将带来出版业的变化,并对环境产生影响)”可推知,作者对于这份报纸抱有支持的态度。故选B。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“About 95 million trees are lost for producing newspapers every year. The Internet, the number of whose users stands for 62.5 percent of the population worldwide, has influenced how people read news and the print readership has dropped greatly.(每年约有9500万棵树因生产报纸而消失。互联网的用户数量占全球人口的62.5%,它影响了人们阅读新闻的方式,纸质报纸的读者数量大幅下降)”可知,由于互联网的普及,纸质报纸的读者数量大幅下降。故选C。

I am Li Hua, a new student of senior high school. I have some trouble in the study and life. I hope you can give me some useful advice.

Could you help me, please I am looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
