12、 certain tones can reduce stress. Music can change brainwave patterns, deepen breathing, and bring on a totally stress-free and more open mindset（心態(tài)）. Using music to relax when considering a particular problem may not only raise your mood, but also could help you reach that a-hamoment and find a sol

13、ution.Music has also been shown not only to make you feel good, but also, to be a great motivator. For example, during exercise, listening to music can keep you going, or get you to exercise more by helping you to ignore negative feelings of tiredness and focus on the pleasurable feelings you get fr

14、om being absorbed in the music.Music is mainly used to record emotion. When we listen to a piece of music we share the artists feelings on a visceral（本來的）level. That can be sad, and who among us hasnt put on a painful love song to share in the misery after a bad break-up? On the contrary, we can sha

15、re in the delight of songs of joy and happiness, or any song or piece of music that reminds us of a particular happy time in our past.So next time you are feeling down, put on Beethoven s Ode to Joy, I bet you will feel a lot better about whatever it was that was bothering you!1、We can infer from th

18、opular DHow music changes your life22（8分） Have you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard, maybe grilling or enjoying a basketball game, when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet? There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”， often used in a situationa quiet period just before a great a

19、ctivity or excitement. According to our own experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this calm? And is it always calm before the storm? Lets hear what scientists have to say.A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storma single

20、cell thunderstorm. In this type of thunderstorm, there is usually only one main updraft, which is warm, damp air and drawn from places near the ground. Storms need warm and damp air as fuel, so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment. Storms can draw in the air that fit their ne

21、ed from all directionseven from the direction in which the storm is traveling.As the warm, damp air is pulled into a storm system, it leaves a lowpressure vacuum(真空) coming after. The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, da

22、mp air drops, and the water vapour(水蒸汽) in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its t

23、rip through cloud. When it reaches the top of the cloud, the air gets spit out(被擠出) at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a stor

24、m.Most thunderstorms, though, dont start with calm. Thats because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns. Theres so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens. Instead, before the storm, it might be really windy!1、Which best fits the

25、description of a particular kind of storm?AA storm with air drawn from every direction.BA thunderstorm without strong winds.CA thunderstorm with a single shape.DA storm fueled by moving air from the ground.2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?ACold and dry air.BWarm and damp

27、bout?ACauses and effects of a heavy storm.BAn explanation of the calm before a storm.CA personal experience of a heavy storm.DA brief description of a peaceful storm.23（8分）Company Names That Have Secret MeaningsCo-founder Larry Page was at a brainstorming session at Stanford for a new massive data i

28、ndexing website. Someone suggested “googolplex”one of the largest describable NUMBERS. Page shortened it to “googol.” When he later checked for the availability of the domain name, he made a mistake and typed in “google” instead. But he liked the name and registered it for himself and co-founder Ser

29、gey Brin.This luxury car maker combined elements from the Ford and Oldsmobile companies when it was started in 1902 and later became known for its innovation and high quality. The company was named for the French explorer Antoine Laumet de la Mothe Cadillac, who founded the city of Detroit in 1701.C

30、ompany co-founder Gordon Bowker has said that while brainstorming names, someone brought out a map that featured the old mining town of Starbo. That may have led him to think of Starbuck, the first mate in Herman Melvilles famous novel, Moby Dick. Not only the company name but also the origin of its

31、 logo has aroused great curiosity.The inventor of Rolex, Hans Wilsdorf, was looking to make an elegant, yet precise, wristwatch. He wanted a name that was easy to say, worked in different languages, and looked good on the watches. He settled on Rolex in 1908.367、Which company name has a close relati

32、onship with literature?AGoogle.BCadillac.CStarbucks.DRolex.1、Which of the following statements is True?AGoogle was adopted because “googol” was not available then.BCadillac was named after the founding father of the company.CStarbucks was used due to the co-founders love for his town.DHans Wilsdorf

33、intended Rolex to be universally accepted.24（8分）Apple and Microsoft each launched new products. One company astonished everyone. The other made people sleepy. Can you guess which was which? You probably guessed wrong. Because Apple, famous for its creative products, was the tech giant whose new prod

34、uct caused a collective shrug(聳肩). While Microsoft, which stole a move out of the Apple Playbook, won cheers from high-end, creative-class consumers like business analysts, media designers and music producers.As Hayley Tsukayama remarked at The Washington Post, the Surface Studio, one of Microsofts

35、new products, is really just a super-sized version of the Surface Books product that Microsoft has been selling for years. But if youve ever watched science fiction movies like Minority report-where Tom Cruise seems to operate pictures and data hanging on mid-air by touching them, spreading his fing

36、ers to increase on details, and sending files and information sliding from one folder to another with a click of the fingers, you can see how Microsoft is trying to show the same experience.Meanwhile, apples new products were almost like some fine promotions for its Apple TV. They boast(炫耀)that the

37、new Macbook Pros has a smaller size and more functions, and a new touch screen bar on laptop keyboards where function keys used to be.So whats going on? In many ways, Apple is focusing on attracting the average consumers who have been attracted by Microsoft. And Microsoft is focusing on targeting th

38、e high-end professionals Apple has historically been associated with. You can even see this is the companies ad campaigns: Microsofts ads stress imagination and creativity, while Apple,s commercial chief performance and convenience of its Macbooks.So Apple is trying to control the world of devices a

39、nd laptops from the top down, starting with the high-end market and moving on to appeal to a broader base of consumers. Microsoft, having already strengthened itself within the bigger low-end market, is now attempting the opposite with a bottom-up strategy. Will these succeed? Time will tell.1、What

40、can we learn from the first paragraph?AMicrosofts new products made a big hit.BApples products aim at high-end consumers.CApple and Microsoft developed the same products.DThe design of Microsofts products is original and unique.2、Why does the author mention the science fiction movie in Paragraph 2?A

41、To show how trendy Microsofts new products are.BTo tell us Microsofts new products can be used in movies.CTo encourage more people to see the science fiction movie.DTo show Microsofts new products are inspired by the movie.3、What can we infer from the last two parts of the text?AApple is changing it

42、s focus on consumer groups from average to high-end ones.BMicrosoft is changing its focus on consumer groups from high-end to average ones.CThe two companies are adopting different business strategies from their own before.DThe two companies are facing fierce competition with each other.4、In which s

43、ection of a newspaper can we most probably read this passage?ALeisure and Entertainment.BEconomics and Business.CCulture and Education.DLife and Fashion.25（10分） Flying down a 488-meter-long slide provides plenty of excitement for most people. But for those who like more extreme adventures, Nicaragua

44、 offers an even more exciting slide experience. The thought of racing down an active volcano with only a board is enough to get most people hot under the collar. But for thrill-seeking sports fanatics, boarding down a 2,380-foot-high volcano at the speed of 80 km/h is the coolest sport around.Thousa

45、nds of travelers are heading to the foothills of Nicaraguas Cerro Negro to take part in the new sporting craze (狂熱). Surfers, dressed in protective jump suits, knee-pads and helmets, receive brief instructions and then try sliding down a short slope(斜坡). After that, its time for the real thing. Sitt

46、ing on their specially-constructed boards, surfers push off and fly straight down a 488-meter-long slope. The black volcanic ash provides a dusty, dirty ride. But boarders usually arrive at the bottom with smiles on their faces.Phillip Southan, owner and manager of Bigfoot Hostel and Green Pathways

47、Tours, said, We started offering this trip in 2005 and it has become so popular. This is a unique tour as nowhere else in the world can you board down an active volcano.What we offer is a tour for everyone with absolutely no experience. One of the greatest attractions of the tour is that you get a b

48、it of everything. Since 2005, more than 10,000 people have traveled to Cerro Negro to give it a try.When you are on the top you will have the opportunity to stand near the crater(火山口) and see a smoking volcano. But the biggest risk is that you will take the chance of getting some scratches if you fa

49、ll over.Many years of experience has taken this tour to a level where it is safe but still fun and for some people a little frightening. We are always working on ways to continue improving it for the future.1、Which words can best describe the slide in Cerro Negro?ASecure but tiring.BEnjoyable but ri
