    The Mind-Body Connections

    Norman Cousins was a famous American magazine editor. In 1964,he returned from an overseas trip
    and then became very ill.In the hospital,he had a terrible pain and couldn't move his body.Doctors told
    him he had a serious disease called ankylosing spondylitis(强直性脊柱炎)and said he had only 1 chance in
    500 of surviving. They gave him powerful drugs,but his condition only got worse.
    Cousins had read about a theory that negative emotions can harm your health.He believed that positive
    emotions were good for one's health,and he decided to try an experiment.He would fill his days with good
    feelings and laughter and see if that might improve his condition.
    He left the hospital and moved into a hotel room.There,he got a large supply of funny TV programs and
    copies of old Marx Brothers movies and cartoons.He also hired a nurse to read funny stories to him.His plan
    was to spend the whole day laughing and thinking about happy things.On his first night in the hotel,Cousins
    found that laughing at the movies helped his body produce chemicals that reduced pain.For the first time in
    weeks,he could sleep comfortably for a few hours.Every time the pain came back,he watched another
    funny movie and laughed until he felt better.
    Over time,Cousins was able to measure changes in his body with blood tests.He found that the harmful
    chemicals in his body decreased at least 5 percent every time he watched a funny movie.After a short time,
    he was able to stop taking all of his medications.Finally his condition improved so much that he could go
    back to work.
    Cousins later wrote a book about how laughter and happiness helped him to survive a deadly illness.
    Many people didn't believe his story and said that his doctors were wrong about his disease.But since then,
    research has found that emotions do have a strong effect on physical health,and experiments found that
    laughter can help to reduce pain.Scientists today are working to understand the ways that our minds affect
    our bodies.

    Cousins spent a lot of time laughing every day.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:A
    解析:
    由文章第一段第二句“In 1 964 , he returned from an overseas trip and then became very ill.”可知,Norman Cousins是在一次海外旅行归来之后才生病的,故选B。
    由文章第一段倒数第二句中“Doctors told him…he had only 1 chance in 500 of survi-ving.”可知,医生告诉Norman Cousins,他只有1/500的可能生还,这也就意味着他极有可能会 死,故选A。
    由文章第一段的最后一句话“They gave him powerful drugs , but his condition only got worse.”可知,医生开的药只让他的情况变得更加糟糕,通过下文的叙述可知,Norman Cousins 的病是经愉悦心情的影响而好转的,故选B。
    由文章的第二、三段可知,Norman Cousins之所以看电影是因为他在读过一个消极情绪 影响健康的理论,他决定用切身的实践来验证愉悦的心情能改善健康状况。他看电影是让自 己发笑,保持好心情。
    由文章第三段的内容可知,Norman Cousins的计划是花上一整天的时间大笑,想象愉快 的事情;他找很多有趣的电视节目和许多喜剧电影和卡通作品,甚至还请了一位护士给他读滑 稽故事。因此他一天中大部分时间在笑声中度过,故选A。
    文中仅仅提及了Norman Cousins用电影和滑稽故事来使自己保持心情愉悦,并未提及 哪一种更为有效,故选C。

    A Minor Microsurgery Last year,Sean Martinovich,from Whitianga,had life-saving surgery when a golf-sized tumor was removed from his brain stem.But the operation left half his face paralysed.He talked with a slur,sometimes dribbled(流 口水)out of the side of his mouth and could not close his eye properly.Although he could run around with the other boys in the playground,when they laughed he could not laugh with them.Without a smile,he could suffer psychologically and emotionally. Last week,6-year-old Sean had seven hours of microsurgery that should give him back his smile.Doctor Bartlett removed a nerve from the back of one of Sean's legs and transplanted it into his face.On the normal side of his face the nerve divides into lots of little branches."We'll cut those nerve branches and then we'll take a nerve graft from one leg and tunnel it across his face from one side to the other and join that on to the nerve that' s been cut on the good side of his face."Doctor Bartlett said before the operation."If this was not fixed he conld face physical and emotional problems as he got older,"Doctor Bartlett said."Socially people can become quite withdrawn because of the face paralysis.It's easy for people,especially children,to become rather emotionless because they prefer the flatness of no movement on either side to the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side and having this twisted face." Sean is not smiling yet.Over the next six months the nerves will grow across the face to the damaged side and after that movement will hopefully come back.Sean's parents,Steve and Wendy Martinovich,said they had been through a year of hell.But their son was a determined boy who just got on with it,said Mrs Martinovich.They are amazed at the technology that they hope will restore the cheeky smile they love so much.For Doctor Bartlett the microsurgery is almost routine.For Sean's parents,it is a miracle.

    Why?
    A:Because he may not want others to see the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side,sohe will choose to withdraw.
    B:Because other children will be scared to see his face.
    C:Because he will be through time of hell.
    D:Because other children will refuse to talk or play with him.

    答案:A
    解析:
    第一段第一句表明,Sean是在去年做的手术;第二段第一句表明,上周Sean的年龄为6岁。所以去年手术时、Sean的年龄应为5岁。
    第一段第三句表明,Sean谈吐不清,有时会流口水,还不能正常地闭眼睛;第一段最后一句说明他不能微笑。综合这些可推知," paralysed"、的意思为“瘫痪的”,也就是失去了感觉和对肌肉的控制。
    根据第二段第四句引用的Bartlett医生的话语可知,移植到Sean脸上的神经来自于他的腿上。
    由第二段最后两句引用Bartlett医生的话语可知,由于面部瘫痪,人们会变得很内向。特别是孩子,宁愿与面无表情的人接触,也会远离只有半边脸微笑的不对称表情。由此推测,Sean可能为了避免让别人发现他那不对称的微笑而采取躲避的方法,这会引起一系列生理问题和心理问题。
    第三段倒数第二句说明,对于Bartlett医生来说,微创手术是“routine"(日常工作),可见微创手术对Bartlett医生来说是一件很容易的事。

    正确答案:

    In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summery below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the blanks 51-5.Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.  For many years after he formed his Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein visited many universities in different cities where he gave talks about it. He had his own chauffeur who drove him to where he was to give the talk. The chauffeur sat at the back of the room while he was giving his lecture, and then drove him home.  One day, the chauffeur said to Einstein, “Professor, I have heard you give your talk so many times that I know every word of it.” “Do you?” Einstein said with a smile. “Let’s find out, shall we? You give my next talk for me. Nobody knows what I look like where we’re going. I’m just a name to them.” Just before they reached the university where Einstein was to give his talk, he changed places with his chauffeur.  The chauffeur’s memory was excellent and he was able to give Einstein’s talk exactly as Einstein gave it. He did not understand a word he was saying, but this did not seem to matter. Then, as he was leaving the university, one of the teachers who had been at the talk came up to him.  “Professor Einstein,” he said. “That was a most interesting talk. I’d be grateful if you would answer a question.” The chauffeur hurried on. “I’m sorry,” he said, “but I’m late for my next meeting.”  “I’ll walk with you,” the teacher said. “I want to talk to you about the problem.” The teacher walked along beside the chauffeur and asked him to solve a very difficult mathematical problem.  The poor chauffeur couldn’t understand the problem, let alone attempt an answer. He did not know what to say. Then he had an idea. “It’s so simple,” he said. “Even my chauffeur could answer it.”  He pointed to his car, where Einstein was standing, still wearing the chauffeur’s cap.  “This man has a maths question,” he said to Einstein. “It’s so easy I’m sure even you can answer it.”  Summary:  Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who worked out the Theory of Relativity. He used to travel around the country with his chauffeur giving (1)      on mathematics. His chauffeur knew his talk very well so Einstein asked him to give the talk at the next (2)      where they did not know him. The chauffeur did well, but afterwards a teacher came up to him and asked him a difficult (3)      .The chauffeur did not know the answer but he said, “This problem is so simple I’m sure my chauffeur knows (4)      it.” Then he pointed to Einstein still standing (5)      beside the car.

    正确答案:
    1.talks  文章第一话明确指出爱因斯坦经常带着他的司机到各地演讲。
    2.university  由第二段最后一句话可看出他们是到大学做演讲。
    3.mathematical problem  由第五段最后一句话可以看出那个老师问的是一道非常难的数学题。
    4.how to solve  could answer it也就是know how to solve it。

  • 第13题:

    Putting the cowhide on, he went after his wife with his two children.


    正确答案:他穿上牛皮,带着两个孩子去追他的妻子。

  • 第14题:

    I met him on the Internet and we chatted for several months. Every time I suggested we meet in person,he would come up with an excuse. I thought it was strange-but he told me that he had not gotten over the death of his wife and he was still grieving for her.

    I thought that he needed a friend and decided that I could be that friend. We sent cards, exchanged gifts,talked on the phone and I was sure that we would meet someday. I had spoken with his children so I was sure that what he told me was true. I could not wait for the day when we would meet. I was so looking forward to being able to reach out and touch him. To hug him,to hold him and feel his big strong arms around me.

    After almost two years of time,thousands of dollars on long distance phone calls,I was very frustrated at the endless stream of excuses as to why we could never seem to make a time to meet. Finally,contacted the website WhoisHe. com and asked if they could check out the man who had taken up so much of my heart,my energy and my life. I had enough information about him and felt that if I could confirm what he had been telling me-I could feel okay about these delays. I had hopes that I didn't want to dash if he was telling the truth. I believed I could wait a little while longer.

    Well, I am glad that I decided to have him checked out-he was nothing he claimed to be. He was first and foremost a married man. He was not a man grieving for the loss of his wife. He was a man cheating on his wife,with me-and I found out later,with countless others on the“net”. He did not care that he had hurt me in a very deep and pathetic way. He talked of spending his life together with me. He told my son that he wanted to make me happy. Basically,he just lied. He was such a good liar I did not see it coming. It was as if he had been able to worm his way into my heart-and he didn't care about the effect he had on my hopes and dreams.

    Each of us should look at the signs that are so clear if we are willing to see them. Do not let someone keep making excuse after excuse. If something feels wrong-likely it is. It is good to know the truth and be able to deal with it. Next time I will pay more attention. I may never be able to trust someone online again.

    It can be inferred from Para. 4 that______.

    A.the man was a single person in reality

    B.the woman was the man's only girlfriend

    C.the man had too many girlfriends on the net

    D.the woman had countless online boyfriends


    正确答案:C
    解析:推断题。题干大意:从第四段能推断出……。根据第四段第三句和第四句可推知,这位男士在网上有许多女友。因此C项是正确选项。

    The Mind-Body Connections

    Norman Cousins was a famous American magazine editor. In 1964,he returned from an overseas trip
    and then became very ill.In the hospital,he had a terrible pain and couldn't move his body.Doctors told
    him he had a serious disease called ankylosing spondylitis(强直性脊柱炎)and said he had only 1 chance in
    500 of surviving. They gave him powerful drugs,but his condition only got worse.
    Cousins had read about a theory that negative emotions can harm your health.He believed that positive
    emotions were good for one's health,and he decided to try an experiment.He would fill his days with good
    feelings and laughter and see if that might improve his condition.
    He left the hospital and moved into a hotel room.There,he got a large supply of funny TV programs and
    copies of old Marx Brothers movies and cartoons.He also hired a nurse to read funny stories to him.His plan
    was to spend the whole day laughing and thinking about happy things.On his first night in the hotel,Cousins
    found that laughing at the movies helped his body produce chemicals that reduced pain.For the first time in
    weeks,he could sleep comfortably for a few hours.Every time the pain came back,he watched another
    funny movie and laughed until he felt better.
    Over time,Cousins was able to measure changes in his body with blood tests.He found that the harmful
    chemicals in his body decreased at least 5 percent every time he watched a funny movie.After a short time,
    he was able to stop taking all of his medications.Finally his condition improved so much that he could go
    back to work.
    Cousins later wrote a book about how laughter and happiness helped him to survive a deadly illness.
    Many people didn't believe his story and said that his doctors were wrong about his disease.But since then,
    research has found that emotions do have a strong effect on physical health,and experiments found that
    laughter can help to reduce pain.Scientists today are working to understand the ways that our minds affect
    our bodies.

    Drugs helped to stop the pain of Cousins'disease.

    B:Wrong

    由文章第一段第二句“In 1 964 , he returned from an overseas trip and then became very ill.”可知,Norman Cousins是在一次海外旅行归来之后才生病的,故选B。
    由文章第一段倒数第二句中“Doctors told him…he had only 1 chance in 500 of survi-ving.”可知,医生告诉Norman Cousins,他只有1/500的可能生还,这也就意味着他极有可能会 死,故选A。
    由文章第一段的最后一句话“They gave him powerful drugs , but his condition only got worse.”可知,医生开的药只让他的情况变得更加糟糕,通过下文的叙述可知,Norman Cousins 的病是经愉悦心情的影响而好转的,故选B。
    由文章的第二、三段可知,Norman Cousins之所以看电影是因为他在读过一个消极情绪 影响健康的理论,他决定用切身的实践来验证愉悦的心情能改善健康状况。他看电影是让自 己发笑,保持好心情。
    由文章第三段的内容可知,Norman Cousins的计划是花上一整天的时间大笑,想象愉快 的事情;他找很多有趣的电视节目和许多喜剧电影和卡通作品,甚至还请了一位护士给他读滑 稽故事。因此他一天中大部分时间在笑声中度过,故选A。
    文中仅仅提及了Norman Cousins用电影和滑稽故事来使自己保持心情愉悦,并未提及 哪一种更为有效,故选C。
    由文章最后一段第二句“Many people didn ' t believe his story and said that...”可知,许多 人都不相信Norman Cousins在自己所著的书中提到的经历,故选B。

    The Mind-Body Connections

    Norman Cousins was a famous American magazine editor. In 1964,he returned from an overseas trip
    and then became very ill.In the hospital,he had a terrible pain and couldn't move his body.Doctors told
    him he had a serious disease called ankylosing spondylitis(强直性脊柱炎)and said he had only 1 chance in
    500 of surviving. They gave him powerful drugs,but his condition only got worse.
    Cousins had read about a theory that negative emotions can harm your health.He believed that positive
    emotions were good for one's health,and he decided to try an experiment.He would fill his days with good
    feelings and laughter and see if that might improve his condition.
    He left the hospital and moved into a hotel room.There,he got a large supply of funny TV programs and
    copies of old Marx Brothers movies and cartoons.He also hired a nurse to read funny stories to him.His plan
    was to spend the whole day laughing and thinking about happy things.On his first night in the hotel,Cousins
    found that laughing at the movies helped his body produce chemicals that reduced pain.For the first time in
    weeks,he could sleep comfortably for a few hours.Every time the pain came back,he watched another
    funny movie and laughed until he felt better.
    Over time,Cousins was able to measure changes in his body with blood tests.He found that the harmful
    chemicals in his body decreased at least 5 percent every time he watched a funny movie.After a short time,
    he was able to stop taking all of his medications.Finally his condition improved so much that he could go
    back to work.
    Cousins later wrote a book about how laughter and happiness helped him to survive a deadly illness.
    Many people didn't believe his story and said that his doctors were wrong about his disease.But since then,
    research has found that emotions do have a strong effect on physical health,and experiments found that
    laughter can help to reduce pain.Scientists today are working to understand the ways that our minds affect
    our bodies.

    Doctors told Cousins that he would probably die from his disease.

    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

Host and guest have been talking forsome time, but now the host has an appointment to keep and can get       (1)_____away. His urge to go is held in check by his desire not be rude        (2)_____to his guest. If he did not care of his guest’s feelings he would      (3)_____simply get up out of his chair and to announce his departure.         (4)_____This is what his body wants to do, therefore his politeness          (5)_____glues his body to the chair and refuses to let him raise. It is at      (6)_____this point that he performs the chair-grasp IntentionMovement. He continues to talk to the guest and listen tohim, but leans forward and grasps the arms of the chair as          (7)_____about to push himself upwards. This is the first act he wouldmake if he were rising. If he were not hesitating, it would          (8)_____only last a fraction of a second. He would lean, push, rise,         (9)_____and be up. But now, instead, it lasts much longer. He holdshis“readiness-to-rise”post and keeps on holding it. It is as if       (10)_____his body had frozen at the get-ready moment.

    正确答案: 1.can→must 根据上文,可知主人是“必须(must)”而不是“可能(can)”离开。
    2.在 not 后加to
    not to be rude to his guest作定语修饰his desire。
    3.将of→for或about
    care for/about在意,在乎
    4.删除and或to 如果删除to,那么在这里连词and连接两个并列的谓语动词get up out of his chair和announce his departure。如果删除连词and。不定式to announce his departure则作目的状语。
    5.therefore→but 这里两个分句是转折关系,而不是原因与结果的关系。
    6.raise→rise
    raise是及物动词后必须跟宾语,而rise则是不及物动词,作“起立,起身”讲。
    7.在 as about 中间加入if或though
    as if/though后跟不定式,可表示“似乎要做……”之意。
    8.make → do 或 perform
    do/perform an act表示“采取行动”
    9.

    10.post→ posture post作“标志,位置,职位”,而posture作“姿势”讲。
