Biologists Slagsvold and Wiebe have spent years studying tits, flycatchers, and other birds that lay their eggs into holes in trees, walls and even human-made boxes. “Holes are rare, so there’s great competition,” Wiebe said. Birds will sometimes get into fights. Even after a bird gets a hole, it has to watch out: There’s always a chance that a passerby tries to possess it. Owners don’t have many options to wait for and stop thieves. Some police their nest’s entrance hole, but preparing for parenthood is hungry work, and eventually the birds have to leave to get food. So Slagsvold and Wiebe started to look for alternative home-defense systems the birds might be using.
They noticed feathers, usually helping animals keep warm, but that doesn’t seem to be how these particular birds are using them. Blue tits, for instance, get feathers on top of the nest, rather than putting them in. Some other birds dump feathers into holes before gathering other materials. “They’re white, and often noticeable,” Wiebe said, “as if the birds want to send a message.”
To find out, they built nest boxes — some feathery, some not — in Europe and America, and recorded how tits, flycatchers and swallows reacted. The birds entered feather-free boxes quickly. But they froze at the sight of white feathers, sometimes hesitating outside for an hour. Black feathers scared them less, perhaps because they were harder to see. The feathers didn’t stop the birds as most eventually went inside. But even a brief delay can make a huge difference, Wiebe said. “Even 20 minutes can give the owner enough time to circle back, and fight off their competitors.”
The birds’ behavior shows their high-risk lifestyle. They have to think twice as the holes may be hiding danger. The feathers represent possible violence, showing a predator might be inside.
The experiment reflects the lies animals tell where nest sites are rare. They build a scene so horrible to discourage nest stealers. Birds are terrified of death. And they can exploit that reality to safeguard what’s theirs.
4. What inspired Slagsvold and Wiebe to seek birds’ other possible ways to protect homes
A. Birds have to fight to get the limited holes. B. Birds get tired from watching out in nests.
C. Birds face many nest stealers on their own. D. Birds leave their nests unattended sometimes.
5. What is the function of white feathers outside the nests
A. To show a friendly welcome. B. To help stealers avoid danger.
C. To buy time for the nest owners. D. To confirm this place is occupied.
6. How does the author feel about the birds’ reaction in the experiment
A. Understandable. B. Confusing. C. Possible. D. Worrying.
7. What’s the best title for the text
A Some birds refuse to build their nests B. It’s important for birds to have feathers
C. High risks of life lead birds to turn to lies D. Birds create a false scene to protect their nests

Some people hold the idea that being starving is the most effective way of losing body fat. Remember, if we go on a starvation diet, we lose weight but not much fat. In starvation mode, we use up our energy stores of carbohydrate (碳水化合物) first (in the form of a substance called glycogen). However, the body can store only a little glycogen, and this is used up within two days. Then we start breaking down fat and protein. But we can’t afford to lose body proteins: our muscle mass decreases, we become noticeably weaker, and our immunity is threatened because the lack of protective immunoglobulin proteins (保护性免疫球蛋白) means we are subject to an increased risk of infection.
Sure, we look slimmer, and we certainly weigh less, but we are weaker and becoming unhealthy. There is no point in dieting if it’s going to make us ill. And, of course, because we need our muscles, when we are even slightly distracted from the diet, our bodies immediately rebuild muscle and we regain all of the ‘lost’ weight very quickly. Not only have we gone through a period of reduced immunity and a lack of proteins, minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and other essential nutrients, there is evidence that so-called immediately effective dieting is detrimental to health in the longer term.
Quite simply, we are going to virtually eliminate all refined (精制的) carbohydrates and sugars (which are also carbohydrates), leaving us with a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet. On this diet, you will be cutting out virtually all refined carbohydrates so that body fat is burned with priority, to provide energy. Sugar, white flour, cakes, bread, pasta and rice are the usual trouble-makers. These foods have very little nutritional value and, what’s more, can cause medical and fat problems. Of course, there are forms of these carbohydrates — such as wholemeal rice, wholemeal bread and wholemeal pastas — that do have nutritional benefits and which you can reintroduce later, but in the initial stage of the diet, you have to reduce all carbohydrates, to switch on the fat-burning mechanism.
One point to be aware of is that refined carbohydrates can appear in many unexpected sources. You probably know that bread, cakes, biscuits, potato crisps and fried potato chips all contain refined carbohydrates, but pasta, rice, most breakfast cereals, most tinned foods, many pre-packaged foods, and prepared sauces do as well… In fact the list goes on and on. Virtually all ‘fast foods’ contain very high proportion of refined carbohydrates and if your diet is high in refined carbohydrates, you will definitely put on weight. If you’re worried that by cutting out refined carbohydrates you’ll have virtually no foods left to choose from, fear not. In fact, high-protein and nutritious foods such as meat, fish, shellfish and eggs are all open to you, along with vegetables, cheese, spices and herbs, from which you can easily produce delicious, healthy and quick meals. You’ll be relieved to hear that you don’t have to live on a diet of lettuce and tomato. On the contrary, you will be eating virtually limitless quantities of very tasty food with delicious sauces and dressings: in other words, real food!
12. What do you know about people following a starvation diet
A. They are more likely to develop diseases.
B. They run the risk of immediate health problems.
C. Their fat and protein will be burnt prior to carbohydrates.
D. Their appetite will be spoiled gradually.
13. What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2
A. Damaging. B. Insignificant. C. Unpredictable. D. Constructive.
14. What can you learn about the carbohydrates in a high protein diet
A. They are banned although considered beneficial.
B They are used as a primary source of energy.
C. They can be consumed only under certain circumstances.
D. Carbohydrates foster the consumption of sugary food.
15. What can you do if you follow the new high protein diet
A. You can become less muscular and athletic.
B. You should only eat meat, fish, shellfish and eggs.
C. You should monitor all the protein you take in.
D. You can have and make delicious dishes.

____18____ A few weeks after my graduation, I happened to notice a contest in a journal where the best student-written paper would get published and win a significant cash prize—$2,500.

A month later, the journal called me to let me know that my C+ paper won first place in the contest out of more than 200 submissions. ____19____
Later, I wrote a letter to the local newspaper detailing this story and explaining how paper grades were subjective. The letter was then published. Knowing this, the professor was awkward.

C. In fact, my paper should have been given an A.

I had a trip to New Mexico last year, a trip I still remember very well to this day. I went to a place called Philmont and attended a summer camp. There were thirteen people including me. The entire 10-day hike we took through those mountains went well, except for the second day, because of the terrible weather.
It had been a nice sunny day up until we were halfway to the camp we were staying at that night. Then without a word it started raining gently. There was nothing too bad and certainly nothing we couldn’t handle. We put our raincoats on and continued on our way. It stayed raining slightly for a while, so I decided it would be a good idea to say, “Well, it can’t be much worse than this, right ” And in less than five seconds the thunder crashed around us. It almost sounded like a laugh, as if it was laughing at us. Then the rain started to come down harder, and then, the hail (冰雹) came.
Getting hit with balls of ice in the middle of the New Mexico mountains was not something I had ever thought would happen to us, but here we were. All thirteen of us were wishing at that moment that we could go home. But we quickly abandoned the idea. It was freezing, and my feet felt like they might fall off. Wet, cold, and carrying 40 pounds on our backs, we hiked on.
But soon enough we got lost for about a mile because of a mistake that our “Navi-guesser” made on getting us to our destination. At the same time, one of our boys got a minor case of hypothermia (低温症). We decided to stop for a while, unpacking our tents to get into a nice warm sleeping bag. I don’t know if you know this, but unpacking camping gear (装备) in the rain was not very fun, especially setting up a tent.

Biologists Slagsvold and Wiebe have spent years studying tits, flycatchers, and other birds that lay their eggs into holes in trees, walls and even human-made boxes. “Holes are rare, so there’s great competition,” Wiebe said. Birds will sometimes get into fights. Even after a bird gets a hole, it has to watch out: There’s always a chance that a passerby tries to possess it. Owners don’t have many options to wait for and stop thieves. Some police their nest’s entrance hole, but preparing for parenthood is hungry work, and eventually the birds have to leave to get food. So Slagsvold and Wiebe started to look for alternative home-defense systems the birds might be using.
They noticed feathers, usually helping animals keep warm, but that doesn’t seem to be how these particular birds are using them. Blue tits, for instance, get feathers on top of the nest, rather than putting them in. Some other birds dump feathers into holes before gathering other materials. “They’re white, and often noticeable,” Wiebe said, “as if the birds want to send a message.”
To find out, they built nest boxes — some feathery, some not — in Europe and America, and recorded how tits, flycatchers and swallows reacted. The birds entered feather-free boxes quickly. But they froze at the sight of white feathers, sometimes hesitating outside for an hour. Black feathers scared them less, perhaps because they were harder to see. The feathers didn’t stop the birds as most eventually went inside. But even a brief delay can make a huge difference, Wiebe said. “Even 20 minutes can give the owner enough time to circle back, and fight off their competitors.”
The birds’ behavior shows their high-risk lifestyle. They have to think twice as the holes may be hiding danger. The feathers represent possible violence, showing a predator might be inside.
The experiment reflects the lies animals tell where nest sites are rare. They build a scene so horrible to discourage nest stealers. Birds are terrified of death. And they can exploit that reality to safeguard what’s theirs.
4. What inspired Slagsvold and Wiebe to seek birds’ other possible ways to protect homes
A. Birds have to fight to get the limited holes. B. Birds get tired from watching out in nests.
C. Birds face many nest stealers on their own. D. Birds leave their nests unattended sometimes.
5. What is the function of white feathers outside the nests
A. To show a friendly welcome. B. To help stealers avoid danger.
C. To buy time for the nest owners. D. To confirm this place is occupied.
6. How does the author feel about the birds’ reaction in the experiment
A. Understandable. B. Confusing. C. Possible. D. Worrying.
7. What’s the best title for the text
A. Some birds refuse to build their nests B. It’s important for birds to have feathers
C. High risks of life lead birds to turn to lies D. Birds create a false scene to protect their nests
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了科学家们发现山雀会通过把羽毛放在巢上，来恐吓那些想要偷窃巢穴的鸟类。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段““Holes are rare, so there’s great competition,” Wiebe said. Birds will sometimes get into fights. Even after a bird gets a hole, it has to watch out: There’s always a chance that a passerby tries to possess it. Owners don’t have many options to wait for and stop thieves. Some police their nest’s entrance hole, but preparing for parenthood is hungry work, and eventually the birds have to leave to get food. So Slagsvold and Wiebe started to look for alternative home-defense systems the birds might be using.(“洞很少，所以竞争很激烈，”韦博说。鸟儿有时会打架。即使一只鸟找到了一个洞，它也必须小心：路过的鸟总有可能试图占有它。主人没有太多的选择来等待和阻止小偷。有些鸟会守在鸟巢的入口洞里，但为为人父母做准备是一项饥饿的工作，最终它们不得不离开去找食物。因此，Slagsvold和Wiebe开始寻找鸟类可能使用的替代家庭防御系统)”可知，鸟儿们必须为得到有限的洞而战斗激发了Slagsvold和Wiebe去寻找鸟类保护家园的其他可能方式。故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“But they froze at the sight of white feathers, sometimes hesitating outside for an hour.(但它们一看到白色的羽毛就僵住了，有时在外面犹豫了一个小时)”和“But even a brief delay can make a huge difference, Wiebe said. “Even 20 minutes can give the owner enough time to circle back, and fight off their competitors.”(但韦博说，即使是短暂的延迟也会产生巨大的影响。“即使是20分钟，也能让巢主有足够的时间绕回来，打败竞争对手。”)”可知，巢外的白色羽毛可以为巢主争取时间。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The birds’ behavior shows their high-risk lifestyle. They have to think twice as the holes may be hiding danger. The feathers represent possible violence, showing a predator might be inside.(这些鸟的行为显示了它们高风险的生活方式。它们必须三思而后行，因为这些洞可能隐藏着危险。羽毛代表着可能的暴力，表明里面可能有捕食者)”以及最后一段“The experiment reflects the lies animals tell where nest sites are rare. They build a scene so horrible to discourage nest stealers. Birds are terrified of death. And they can exploit that reality to safeguard what’s theirs.(这个实验反映了动物们在巢穴稀少的地方所说的谎言。它们营造了一个可怕的场景来阻止偷巢者。鸟害怕死亡。它们可以利用这个现实来保护他它们的东西)”可知，因为山雀高风险的生活方式，它们把白色羽毛丢在巢穴顶部恐吓想要偷窃巢穴的鸟类，以此保护自己的巢穴，作者认为实验中鸟儿的反应可以理解。故选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The experiment reflects the lies animals tell where nest sites are rare. They build a scene so horrible to discourage nest stealers. Birds are terrified of death. And they can exploit that reality to safeguard what’s theirs.(这个实验反映了动物们在巢穴稀少的地方所说的谎言。它们营造了一个可怕的场景来阻止偷巢者。鸟害怕死亡。它们可以利用这个现实来保护它们的东西)”结合文章主要说明了科学家们发现鸟类会通过把羽毛放在巢上，来恐吓那些想要偷窃巢穴的鸟类。可知，D选项“鸟类创造一个虚假的场景来保护它们的巢穴”最符合文章标题。故选D。

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了小狗走失后偶遇一个男孩，最终成功跟随小男孩回家的故事。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“On the way to his home the child turned many times and beat the dog, declaring with childish gestures that he held him in contempt(茂视）as an unimportant dog. the dog apologized for being this quality of animal and expressed regret in fine form, but he continued stealthily to follow the child.(在回家路上，孩子多次转过身来打那条狗，用孩子气的手势宣称他蔑视那条狗，认为它是一条不重要的狗。狗为自己是这样的动物而道歉，并以良好的形式表示遗憾，但它继续偷偷地跟着孩子。)”可知，孩子试图摆脱狗，而且他们在此之前并不认识，可见他们是无意间遇到的。从而推断，这条狗曾是别人的宠物，但迷路了。小狗是丢失后才遇到男孩的。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“He performed a few playful jumps with such abandon(尽情地） that the child suddenly saw him to be a valuable thing.(它尽情地跳了几下，孩子突然觉得它很有价值。)”可知，小狗努力的取悦男孩，使得男孩改变了主意。故选D。

Some people hold the idea that being starving is the most effective way of losing body fat. Remember, if we go on a starvation diet, we lose weight but not much fat. In starvation mode, we use up our energy stores of carbohydrate (碳水化合物) first (in the form of a substance called glycogen). However, the body can store only a little glycogen, and this is used up within two days. Then we start breaking down fat and protein. But we can’t afford to lose body proteins: our muscle mass decreases, we become noticeably weaker, and our immunity is threatened because the lack of protective immunoglobulin proteins (保护性免疫球蛋白) means we are subject to an increased risk of infection.
Sure, we look slimmer, and we certainly weigh less, but we are weaker and becoming unhealthy. There is no point in dieting if it’s going to make us ill. And, of course, because we need our muscles, when we are even slightly distracted from the diet, our bodies immediately rebuild muscle and we regain all of the ‘lost’ weight very quickly. Not only have we gone through a period of reduced immunity and a lack of proteins, minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and other essential nutrients, there is evidence that so-called immediately effective dieting is detrimental to health in the longer term.
Quite simply, we are going to virtually eliminate all refined (精制的) carbohydrates and sugars (which are also carbohydrates), leaving us with a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet. On this diet, you will be cutting out virtually all refined carbohydrates so that body fat is burned with priority, to provide energy. Sugar, white flour, cakes, bread, pasta and rice are the usual trouble-makers. These foods have very little nutritional value and, what’s more, can cause medical and fat problems. Of course, there are forms of these carbohydrates — such as wholemeal rice, wholemeal bread and wholemeal pastas — that do have nutritional benefits and which you can reintroduce later, but in the initial stage of the diet, you have to reduce all carbohydrates, to switch on the fat-burning mechanism.
One point to be aware of is that refined carbohydrates can appear in many unexpected sources. You probably know that bread, cakes, biscuits, potato crisps and fried potato chips all contain refined carbohydrates, but pasta, rice, most breakfast cereals, most tinned foods, many pre-packaged foods, and prepared sauces do as well… In fact the list goes on and on. Virtually all ‘fast foods’ contain very high proportion of refined carbohydrates and if your diet is high in refined carbohydrates, you will definitely put on weight. If you’re worried that by cutting out refined carbohydrates you’ll have virtually no foods left to choose from, fear not. In fact, high-protein and nutritious foods such as meat, fish, shellfish and eggs are all open to you, along with vegetables, cheese, spices and herbs, from which you can easily produce delicious, healthy and quick meals. You’ll be relieved to hear that you don’t have to live on a diet of lettuce and tomato. On the contrary, you will be eating virtually limitless quantities of very tasty food with delicious sauces and dressings: in other words, real food!
12. What do you know about people following a starvation diet
A. They are more likely to develop diseases.
B. They run the risk of immediate health problems.
C. Their fat and protein will be burnt prior to carbohydrates.
D. Their appetite will be spoiled gradually.
13. What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2
A. Damaging. B. Insignificant. C. Unpredictable. D. Constructive.
14. What can you learn about the carbohydrates in a high protein diet
A. They are banned although considered beneficial.
B. They are used as a primary source of energy.
C. They can be consumed only under certain circumstances.
D. Carbohydrates foster the consumption of sugary food.
15. What can you do if you follow the new high protein diet
A. You can become less muscular and athletic.
B. You should only eat meat, fish, shellfish and eggs.
C. You should monitor all the protein you take in.
D. You can have and make delicious dishes.
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出节食减肥法虽然能够减轻体重，但会导致肌肉流失、免疫力下降以及缺乏必要的营养素，从而使身体变得虚弱和不健康。文章建议采用低碳水化合物、高蛋白的饮食方式来实现健康减肥，指出要避免精制碳水化合物，逐渐引入全谷类食物，同时警惕精制碳水化合物隐藏在许多食物中。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But we can’t afford to lose body proteins: our muscle mass decreases, we become noticeably weaker, and our immunity is threatened because the lack of protective immunoglobulin proteins (保护性免疫球蛋白) means we are subject to an increased risk of infection. (但是我们不能失去身体的蛋白质：我们的肌肉量减少，我们变得明显更弱，我们的免疫力受到威胁，因为缺乏保护性免疫球蛋白意味着我们受到感染的风险增加)”可知，采用节食减肥法的人免疫力会下降，更容易患病。故选A项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“Not only have we gone through a period of reduced immunity and a lack of proteins, minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and other essential nutrients (我们不仅经历了免疫力下降和缺乏蛋白质、矿物质、维生素、抗氧化剂和其他必需营养素的时期)”可知，此处介绍节食减肥法对人体带来的损害，画线词所在句是进一步介绍这种损害。由此推知，所谓立竿见影的节食从长远来看对健康是“有害的”，画线词意思应该是“有害的”，与damaging意思相近。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Of course, there are forms of these carbohydrates — such as wholemeal rice, wholemeal bread and wholemeal pastas — that do have nutritional benefits and which you can reintroduce later, but in the initial stage of the diet, you have to reduce all carbohydrates, to switch on the fat-burning mechanism. (当然，这些碳水化合物也有一些形式——比如全麦米饭、全麦面包和全麦面食——它们确实有营养价值，你可以稍后再引入它们，但在饮食的初始阶段，你必须减少所有的碳水化合物，以启动脂肪燃烧机制)”可知，在高蛋白饮食法中，碳水化合物只有在特定情况下才能吃，初始阶段不能吃。故选C项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In fact, high-protein and nutritious foods such as meat, fish, shellfish and eggs are all open to you, along with vegetables, cheese, spices and herbs, from which you can easily produce delicious, healthy and quick meals. (事实上，高蛋白和营养的食物，如肉类、鱼类、贝类和鸡蛋，以及蔬菜、奶酪、香料和草药，都是向你开放的，你可以很容易地制作出美味、健康和快速的食物)”可知，如果遵循高蛋白饮食法，你可以吃并制作出美味的菜肴。故选D项。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学生穿校服的几个好处。
【36题详解】
考查时态。句意：当每个学生在校穿校服时，没有人会担心时尚问题。本句是when引导的时间状语从句，遵循主将从现原则，因此，主句可以使用将来时will do；根据语境可知，本文叙述的是客观事实，因此，本句亦可用一般现在时，主语是nobody，谓语用has。故填will have/has。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：每个人都穿相同风格的衣服。same是形容词，意思是“相同的”，常与the连用修饰名词。故填the。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。这是个限制性定语从句，先行词是cloth，指物，从句中缺少主语，因此，可以用that或which引导。故填that/which。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：当孩子们在黑暗的早晨步行或骑车上学时，汽车司机很容易看到它们。or连接两个并列成分，根据or前的walking可知，此处要用cycling。故填cycling。
【40题详解】
考查副词。分析句式可知，设空处所给词是修饰动词see，修饰动词要用副词，因此，用easy的副词形式。故填easily。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：这个问题的答案不清楚。the key/answer to ...表示“……的答案是……”，是固定搭配。故填to。
【42题详解】
考查时态。句意：美国的一项研究发现，在学校引入校服后，学生的成绩有所提高。本句是after引导的时间状语从句，前后时态保持一致，从句使用了一般过去时，主句用一般过去式。故填improved。
【43题详解】
考查固定用法。句意：但是，有一些学生不想穿学生服。want to do sth想要做某事，这是want的固定用法。故填to wear。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意：其他的美国研究表明校服和学校表现之间没有联系。no是形容词，形容词修饰名词，位于名词前，名词可用复数也可用单数形式。connect是动词，“联系”的意思，因此，要用其名词形式。故填connection/connections。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意：穿校服在英国是一个传统，但是一些学校开始允许学生上学不用穿校服。这里作表语，常用形容词，tradition是名词，因此，用其形容词形式。故填traditional。
