1.Brain Transplants

Research on the human brain has been attracting more and more scientists in recent years.1If we compare a human brain to a hard

disc, what the scientists are doing is to make better use of the hard disc.

The idea that a human brain could be transplanted may come from

Frankenstein. In 1999, an experiment turned a bear into a dolphin.2

They were made of the memory area in the dolphin’ s brain containing information about swimming.They had a series of useful information,

which was saved into a button-sized chip(芯片 ). Later the information

was transplanted into the action memory area in the bear 3 ’ s brain.

It proved to be a highly successful experiment and a bear was turned

into a dolphin.

Recently,another memory transplant was performed at the Motor Nerve Research Institute of the University of California. The experiment

had an entire transplant of the memory area.4The transplant

was performed from a dog named Genius to a dog named Idiot. Genius

could follow up to 100 gestures and orders made by its master. It was a

real genius in memorizing.However,Idiot had no contact with people

since its birth. It became an animal with nothing in its brain, without

any memory.

5 When the two dogs woke up, Idiot had grasped all the abilities

Genius possessed; it was good at memorizing and sensible. It could

follow every gesture and any command given by its master. But Genius

gave no response to its master, and did not recognize him at all.

A. The experiment was a complete success.

B. It included actions, moods, logic, words, images, etc.

C. Then it was released by means of electric power.

D. Different images have different meanings in the memory area.

E. Using the most advanced technology, detailed images were produced.

F. Discoveries show that messages are carried by the central nervous system in

the brain.

G. One of the latest topics is how to change the human brain or combine it with the

computer.

patients sit on while he checks their teeth. Jerome says,“ That’ s

__1__ “ That ’ swhy I don ’ t wear a

white coat. I find that’ ones of the things that people associate with

pain. In fact, my philosophy is that dental treatment should take place in

an atmosphere of relaxation, interest and, above all, enjoyment” , is all highly shocking for anyone who associates dental treatment with

pain, or at the very least, formal, clinical visits. He says,“ If p relaxed, entertained and correctly treated, they will forget such previous

“ Virtual -reality headsets are one of his new relaxation techniques.

___2____ The headsets are used for the first check-up, where the patient

sits on the blue couch and watches ar film while I look at their teeth. Then the

headset switches to a special camera, to give the patient a

visual tour around their mouth.”

“ Another key point is that the surgery smells more like a perfume

shop than a dentist ’Todays. there is the smell of orange. ‘ When people walk in, I

want them to realize with all their senses that it

like going to dentist’ s. Smell is very important.3_____”

3.School Phobia

School phobia is a type of illness which causes the students, typically between the ages of8-13,to be afraid to go to school. Symptoms include stomachaches, tiredness, shaking, a racing heart and

frequent trips to the toilet.

__1__ Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety,but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress. A child who has recently

moved, suffered a loss, or gone through a divorce may develop school

phobia, and phobias can also develop in response to an unrecognized

learning disability, and poor self-image.

__2__ He or she may become physically ill when ordered to school,

or pretend to be sick to avoid going. When the child arrives at school,

he or she may run away, or develop behavioral problems in class. When

school is discussed, the child can become impatient, upset or angry.

Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia.But research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life.Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor.

__3__ As soon as a school phobia is identified,parents should take action too. Like other phobias,school phobia gets worse if it is left untreated, and it can prevent the child from succeeding in school. __4__

If bullying is a cause,for example,the bullying situation should be solved. A teacher can meet the child at the door and take him or her to

4.The Pleasing Sound of a Rainstick

A rainstick is a long tube that is carved out, with small sticks or

other materials pushed inside so that it has a somewhat smooth surface

on the outside, but small barriers inside. These can be in a lined pattern,

for a specific sound, or placed at random for a more varied effect. It is

then filled with a variety of different things, like small stones, or

beads( 珠子 ), or even rice, and the ends are capped to provide a seal.

__1_____

The origins of rainsticks are not really known and so the stories are

quite varied. Some people say that the ancient peoples of Chile created

rainsticks from dried cactus(仙人掌 ), with the sharp points taken off,

pushed back inside and then filled with small stones. __2_____The Deaguita Indians survive even today, and they are still using them in

many of their rain ceremonies. They also make them as musical

instruments.

___3____ Turning the stick over quickly will produce a higher sound,

while turning it slowly will produce a deeper effect. How long the effect

lasts depends on how long the instrument is. The tube also affects the

quality of the rain sound as well. If you make them from some kind of

absorbent material, like cactus or bamboo, you will hear it better than

if you were to make it from cardboard tubing.

A rainstick can be made from almost any kind of material and the

types of things that you can use as fillings can be even more varied.

__4____ Usually, these school projects are made using a cardboard tube,

like the center from a roll of toilet paper or a paper towel tube.

Tooth picks are then inserted, with the exposed ends cut off and

glued in place. ___5____

A.You can even make your own rainsticks, and they are often part of

school projects where they are used to help children learn the history of Indian peoples.

B.When turned upside down, these materials fall down through

the tube, bouncing off of the barriers to produce a calming rain-

like sound.

C.These were then capped with pieces of wood on the ends and

used in ceremonies to bring rain to their crops.

D.One end is capped off with poster board and filled with rice or beans, and then

the other end is sealed.

E.You can get different rain sounds, depending on how fast you

turn the rainstick itself.

F.This rainstick can never be opened according to the scared

writings of the ancients.

G.They can be three feet or longer depending on what the tube itself

is made from.

5.Tips on Young Adult Life

As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience

a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult.1Don ’ t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!

With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your

own choices. This is a time to be well informed about making choices. In

this way you can make healthy balanced decisions.2You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you

want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.

Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices.3 But try not to shut your family out of your life. You school learn to think

of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself.

It is also perfectly natural at this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family4 A true friend will stand by you

no matter what happens.

This period is a part of the life cycle. There are some people who will

be with you throughout life’ s journey. There will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard.

The reality is that you may not even see all of your classmates again.

You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you.5 So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living.

Enjoy your life wisely!

A． Choose your friends wisely.

B．They will help shape the future.

C． They may seem to happen quickly.

D． You will probably want to be independent.

E．You may appreciate what you have in your own life.

F．The choices that you make from now on will be your choices.

G． Your family has been with you since you came into this world.

6.The First Americans

There was a time long ago when a land bridge connected Asia and

North America.The first settlers in North America crossed this land

bridge from what is now Siberia to Alaska. The people who made this

initial crossing were probably following the animals they used for food.

Eventually,the oceans rose and the land bridge between the continents disappeared.The set tlers,who I shall call the“ First Americans ” , could not return to their homeland.1

For the next few thousand years,the First Americans migrated

south and east throughout North and South America.They made the

journey all the way from Alaska to the southern tip of South America, a

distance of more than 10,000 miles.2

In the far north, above the Arctic Circle, the First Americans became

hunters of the ocean.3In the brief summer,they gathered berries

and other plants. In the winter, they stayed in lodges much of the time

preparing for the next summer. It was a hard life,but they learned to

survive in these harsh conditions.

Farther south,in what is now Arizona,Utah,Colorado,and New Mexico, the First Americans became cliff dwellers(悬崖居民 ). They began

by living in caves that already existed in the cliffs.4The dwellings

they constructed in many ways resembled today’ s apartment buildings.

5They built a system of dams and canals so they could store and use

water almost any time of the year. They were so successful that

they could raise fruits and vegetables that were not found naturally

in the desert.

In Mexico and South America, the First Americans founded civilizations that

were among the greatest in the world. They built huge

pyramids, lived in fabulous cities, and made great advances in science and

mathematics long before the Europeans arrived.

A. They also discovered foods like corn and potatoes.

B. Along the way, they established many different civilizations.

C. The First Americans of the Southwest learned to irrigate the desert.

D. They would have to survive in the New World they had discovered.

E. They built boats of animal skins and hunted or fished for their food.

F. People living near each other tended to share similar environments

and customs.

G. They discovered how to add to the caves by building structures of

wood and stone.

7.Public Speaking and Critical Thinking

What is critical thinking?To a certain degree,it’ sa matter of logic — of being able to spot weakness in other people’ arguments and to avoid them in your own. It also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence.

In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking—the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas.___1____ The greatest thinkers, scientists and inventors have often taken information

that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new

ideas. That, too, is critical thinking.

___2___ As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a

great deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a

purely mechanical(机械的 ) exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances

are that your thinking is also disordered and confused. If, on the other

hand, the structure is clear, there is good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. __3____

What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking.___4___ As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language,you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately.___5___ As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class, you will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.

If you take full advantage of your speech class,you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances.This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.

A. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.

B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.

C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect

speech.

D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only

reorganized ideas.

E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking

class, the answer is quite a lot.

F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more

effective thinker in a number of ways.

G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking, you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication.

8.Shopaholism

The word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs.

1Some people are compulsive shoppers. Others find it impossible

to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games.

2Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more every day, but it’ s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics.They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that

they don ’ t need. Even though they don’ t have enough money, they buy everything they want.

The question is: why do they have this addic tion?There isn’ ta specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried,

upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a

way to forget their problems.Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something.3

Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can bring out

problems. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people

addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break

this habit.However,the process, like for most addictions,is long,and they suffer a lot.4They just think about satisfying

their feelings, so they spend money they don’5 t have.

A. Once you are addicted to alcohol or drugs, it is difficult to get rid of.

B. Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity.

C. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty.

D. However in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions.

E. People addicted to computer games consider the games as great ways to

amuse themselves.

F. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get

sent to prison.

G. It can also cause financial problems.

9.Flavoring

Most drinks stating that they are fruit-flavored (水果味道的) contain

no fruit at all, while most of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit, according

to a study carried by the British Food Commission.

“ Shoppers need to check the labels ( 标签) before buying drinks,

though sometimes the actual content can be non-existent,” said Food Commission spokesperson Ian Tokelove.“ Food production is highly competitive.1It will increase profits,and consumers won ’ t

always realize they are being tricked.”

Flavorings are focused on the flavors of natural food products such

as fruits, meats and vegetables, or creating flavor for food products that

do not have the desired flavors.Researchers analyzed the contents of

28strawberry-flavored products sold in stores.2Of the11 products that did contain strawberries, five of them contained less than

one percent real fruit. In addition, each juice box contained nearly

eight teaspoons of sugar.

3Let ’ stake jam as an example. Some strawberry -flavored jam

was labeled as containing no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners,

but it contained absolutely no strawberries at all.

4Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what they

have bought. Under current UK law, food packages do not have to distinguish between natural and artificial fl avoring.“ Describing a

product as strawberry flavor and covering the surface of the packet with

pictures of strawberries is misleading.5Unfortunately,it is also

legal and widespread,” Tokelove said.“ It’ s time to take measures to protect the consu mers ’ rights.”

A. The products which contain real fruit are popular with people.

B. Even products advertised as more natural often contained no fruit.

C. They found that about 60 percent of them didn ’ t contain any fruit at all.

D. If companies can cut their costs by using flavoring, they are likely

to do so.

E. It is important and necessary to demand a small amount of

flavoring in the products.

F. Actually the product contains just a tiny percentage of strawberry

or even no fruit at all.

G. The Food Commission suggested all flavors used in a product

should be listed on the packaging.

高考英语七选五阅读填空试题

高考英语七选五阅读填空试题七选五阅读填空是近几年在宁夏、海南和北京等省、市高考英语试卷中出现的一种综合测试阅读理解的新题型。该题主要考查考生对文章的整体内容、结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。命题特点本题型的阅读材料是一篇长度为180—300词的短文，文中有五处空白，分别在各个段落的段首、段中或段尾。文后有七句话（均为完整句子），要求我们根据文章结构、内容从短文后的七个选项中选出五个能填入文章空白处的最佳选项。由于给出的选项中，有的选项区分度不大，试题的难度比常规阅读试题有所增加，而且会出现由于一处误选导致多处错答的后果。命题规律七选五阅读填空不仅要求我们对所读短文的主旨要义、具体信息有所了解，更要能够把握全篇文脉和作者的谋篇思路。故此，所选材料通常是我们所熟悉的大众化话题，一般多为说明文，也有议论文和记叙文，正文与选项累计词数在300—350。短文不会少于三个自然段，不会在同一个自然段设两个以上的空白。文章的第一句不会设空（有小标题的题除外）。所留空白处一般是段落主题句、段落总结句、承上启下句、关键论点支撑句或全篇概括归纳句等。所给的七个选项中有两个选项与正确选项干扰性较大。解题策略 1．通读全文，勾勒连接词语，理清语段的句际关系。构成语段的各个句子之间存在句际关系，文章的内容是根据各层各段的大意有机地组合而成，各个层次，各个段落之间不管怎样错落有致，但他们所表达的内容都是要围绕中心的，各句之间都有一定的语脉，这种语脉从逻辑意义上来看，存在并列、顺序（时间、空间）、递进、转折、总分、归纳、解释、因果等关系。构成语段的各个句子之间有时可以包含一种以上的句际关系。 2．利用关键词解题，一般空格的正确选项与紧邻的上下句都有明显的关键词在起作用，所以只要找出空格上一句或下一句当中的关键词，然后在七个选项中找出同样的关键词，就能准确地确定选项。 3．正确理解七个选项的内在含义，推测各项的使用语境。 4．从句意、语境包括语法功能及句子的长度来比较分析各选项。 5．适当采用排除法，根据文章的逻辑关系排除不恰当选项。典型例题根据短文内容，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。 The Olympic Weightlifting While weightlifting is used in many sports and athletic training, Olympic weightlifting is the name of the official sport name.1There are special conditions they have to meet in order to compete: body weight, height and strength. 2How fast and with what level of mobility（活动性）can the athlete perform the lift?
