17阅读理解(本题共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)请认真阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AAn apple a day keeps the doctoraway. Most of us have heard this old saying and followed it to keep healthy.But recently, a new study tells us whether there’s any truth in this oldsaying.A team of researchers led byMatthew Davis of the University of Michigan School of Nursing in the US, asked 8,399 people to answer questions of diet and health. A total of 753 were appleeaters. The other 7,646 were non-apple eaters.When both groups answeredquestions on trips to the doctor and trips to the chemist’s per year, the appleeaters were found to be 27 percent less likely to visit the chemist for drugs.However, when considering otherfactors(因素) thatcan influence frequency(频率)of medical visits, such as weight, race, education andhealth insurance (健康保险), the difference disappeared. And the researchers found daily appleeaters were just as likely as non-apple eaters to go to doctors. In other words,an apple a day might keep the chemist away.However, Davis said to USA Today,eating apples is still a healthy habit. Doctors generally agree that apples canbe a good food choice. They are rich in vitamin C and also contain smallamounts of vitamin A, calcium(钙) and iron.But, “One apple isn’t going tobe enough to make a difference unless it’s part of a healthy food pattern(模式)”, said Steven Zeisel, fromthe University of North Carolina’s Nutrition Research Institute(营养研究学院), to NBC News.The old saying is thought tocome from Wales in the 1800s. Apples, which have a long shelf-life(贮藏寿命), were likely one of the few fruits thatwere available throughout the year, according to NBC News. 31. The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”may come from .A. doctors B. scientists C. France D. Wales32. According to the new study, if you eatan apple a day, .A. you are unlikely to get illB. it makes no big differenceto your healthC. you are much healthier thannon-apple eatersD. you weigh less thannon-apple eaters 33. NBC News thinks that theold saying may come from the fact that .A. apples are rich in vitamin CB. apples contain a lot ofcalciumC. apples play a big part in ahealthy food patternD. apples can be foundthroughout the year34. We can infer(推断)from the article that .A. people with a highereducation are less likely to get illB. eating apples is not thehealthiest habitC. non-apple eaters are healthier thanothersD. an apple a day is not enoughto make people much healthier BOnApril 24, 1990, the world of science reached a new milestone (里程碑). The US Space Agency launched(发射)Hubble Space Telescope(哈伯太空望远镜) into space. It then began itsexploration(探险)of the universe (宇宙).So how has it developed science? Let’s take a closer look at Hubble tocelebrate its 25th birthday!Hubble is the first largetelescope to be sent to space. Its job is to orbit (绕轨道而行) Earth and take a lot ofpictures of the universe. It is 13.2 meters in length and weighs 11,110 kilogram.It works differently to yourschool telescope, which helps you see an object larger and clearer. Hubbleworks by collecting light. The bigger the mirror, the more light it cancollect. Its main mirror is 2.4 meters. How good is its view? Scientists saysthat it’s like seeing a pair of fireflies (萤火虫) in Tokyo from a home on theeast coast of the US.Hubble’s discoveries have ledto some major breakthroughs(突破). It proved(证实) that the universe was actually speeding up, not slowingdown. It discovered black holes (黑洞). Also, with the help of Hubble, scientists have a more exactanswer of the age of the universe: 13.7 billion.So how long will Hubble workfor us? People are not sure. But when Hubble’s days of exploration come to anend, its discoveries will still stay with us. Its successor (继任者), the Webb Space Telescope, isbeing put together as we speak. With a much more powerful telescope, we canonly wait to be in awe of(敬畏) its future discoveries. 35. Which of the following about theHubble Space Telescope is NOT true?A. It began to explore theuniverse in 1990.B. It’s the firstlarge telescope to be sent to space.C. It orbitsEarth and takes pictures of the universe.D. It has stoppedworking because it’s too old.36. FromParagraph 3, we learn that .A. Hubble workssimilar to school telescopesB. light isimportant for Hubble to workC. it’s better touse a smaller mirror for HubbleD. Hubble can seefireflies on Earth in space37. After yearsof work, Hubble found out that .A. the Earth isroundB. the universewas slowing downC. there areblack holes in the universeD. the universewill disappear in 13.7 billion years38. The article mainly talks about .A. NASA B. school telescopesC. the Hubble Space Telescope D. the Webb Space Telescope COnboth sides of the River Thames in London, big crowds wait for the start of arowing race. The sporting spotlight falls on two boats from the two top universitiesin Britain.Eight male students from bothOxford and Cambridge battle(搏斗) it out for 6.8km on the river. The winners will bring back honor(荣耀) forthemselves and their university. And although competitors must be amateurs (业余爱好者)and students, these top universitiestake the competition seriously. Their training timetable is strict: usually,they train for six days a week for six months before the race.The rowing tradition has a longhistory. The first race was in 1829! Being two of the oldest universities in theworld, Oxford and Cambridge share a strong competition both in academia(学术界) and sports. There have been someinteresting events over the centuries. In 1877, and the only time so far, bothboats crossed the line at the exact same time. It’s been the only draw (平局) in its history. In the 1912race, weather conditions were poor. Strong winds blew during the race, and surelyenough, both boats sank! And in 2012, the race was stopped after a studententered the water and swam towards the boats. He was against public spendingcuts (削减开支). And the recent race thisyear on April 11 made history. It was the first time that the women’s teamraced at the same place and on the same day.Though there’s littledifference between them, Cambridge is in the lead with 81 wins. 39. What can we tell from the story?A. Eighteen students from eachuniversity take part in the rowing race.B. Teachers can also take partin the competition.C. Students take part in theboat race just for fun.D. Students train hard for theboat race.40. What happened in the race of 1912?A. It was the first boat racecompetition.B. The result was a draw.C. Strong winds made both boatssink.D. The race was stopped by astudent.41. What is the main idea of the story?A. The traditional boat racebetween Oxford and Cambridge.B. The famous boat teams from Oxford and Cambridge universities.C. Why the Oxford and Cambridge boat race is fun.D. When to watch the Oxford and Cambridge boat race. DWhile we are still children, most of us live athome with our parents, more or less peacefully. But as we become teenagers, thingschange, and we begin to grow separated from our parents. This means we arealmost ready to leave the house where we grow up and make a new home of ourown. All humans must do this, but they don’tall do it in the same way. If , for example ,you belong to a primitive tribe(原始部落) ,then as you grew up ,you’d learn the skills youneeded as an adult---how to catch fish ,how to keep the house and look afterchildren . You would be ready to marry in your early teens and you would builda house and live near your family in the village.This seems a very old way of life, but it iswhat humans have been used to through hundreds of years. And it is what we arestill used to in the 21st century ,for man hasn’tchanged in the short time since he became civilized(文明的). But could you leave home and look after yourself duringthe teen years? Most people would not do very well. Why? Because although manhasn’t changed very much , the society he lives in has changed greatly ,whichmeans that we have to learn more and more before we are ready to leave ourparents’ shelter(居所) and live alone. However, sometimes it will cause some trouble tolive at parents’ home. Parents can be very worried about late nights, complainingfriends and always saying that we are noisy and dirty. But we still need our emotional(情感的) shelter till we finish our studies, and thatis why we usually stay in our parents’ home until we feel grown up enough todeal with living alone . 42. When does the relationshipwith parents start changing? A. When we arechildren. B.When we become teenagers. C. When we arealone. D. When we get married.43. For most teenagers of the 21st century, making a newhome of their own may be .A.difficult B. unimportant C. impossible D. quite easy 44. Why must we know more to be able to live alone? A. Because we are becoming lesstalented. B. Because our society has changed alot. C. Because not enough is taught in ourschools. D. Because man has never really beencivilized.45. From the passage, we know living at parents’ home whenwe become teenagers _______ .A. is alwayspleasant B. must be very excitingC. makes us feellonely D. sometimes may be uncomfortable

Through joints ventures, alliances and technology licensing agreements (技术批准协议) over the years, Samsung developed the capabilities to start exporting electronic product.Initially, it sold its branded products at a discount to its American and Japanese competitors to price-sensitive buyers in overseas markets. Besides, it added sales volume by obtaining relatively large orders as a private-label manufacturer for other foreign companies.To develop new products, Samsung invested in upgrading its market research and product development capabilities, raising the Research & Development (R&D) budget, conducting extensive consumer research, and setting up manufacturing and distribution operations in major export markets, which helped Samsung to the television and mobile phone markets in the 1980s and 1990s.41.

Governments worldwide act on the assumption that the welfare of their people depends largely on the economic strength and wealth of the community. Under modern conditions, this requires varying measures of centralized control and hence the help of specialized scientists such as economists and operational research experts. Furthermore, it is obvious that the strength of the country's economy is directly bound up with the efficiency of its agriculture and industry, and that this in turn rests upon the efforts of scientists and technologists of all kinds. It also means that governments are increasingly compelled to interfere in these sectors to step up production and ensure that it is utilized (利用) to the best advantage. For example, they may encourage research in various ways, including the setting up of their research centers; they may alter the structure of education or interfere to reduce the wastage of natural resources or develop resources hitherto (到目前为止) unexploited; or they may cooperate directly in the growing number of international projects related to scientific and technological manpower of all kinds.Owing to the remarkable development in mass communications, people everywhere feel new wants. They are being exposed to new customs and ideas, while governments are taking steps to meet these new needs.What is believed to directly affect the welfare of people according to the passage?()A Economists and operational research experts.B The help of specialized scientists.C The economic strength and wealth of the community.D Varying measures of centralized control.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
