When a fire broke out in my home in the middle of the night, I knew I'd do anything I could to save my family. The medicine that I take for my rheumatoid arthritis causes me to wake up in the middle of the night with a dry mouth. January 15, 2016, was no different. I, Indiana, US, awoke at 2:30am needing water.
I was walking back upstairs from the kitchen when I heard my bulldog , Rock. Whatever Rock was doing down there, it made enough noise for me to go to him. By the time I made it to the bottom of the stairs, he was running up, and he never came up the stairs, no matter what. I think that was his way of telling me, "We've got to go back up. "When I got to the top of the stairs, I turned around and saw a light on, but I didn't remember leaving one on. I walked downstairs again, and that's when I saw fire. I immediately shouted to my wife to wake up and get our three kids. I grabbed a knife and cut out the plastic that covered the window to the porch roof. I then pried open the window and kicked out the screen. I started screaming for help. But help never came. I got everybody out on the roof and threw a blanket out there so we wouldn't slip off. It was cold, January cold. Then I started screaming for help. But help never came.
Now, I'm scared of heights and have physical issues, what with my rheumatoid arthritis, but I couldn't let my family burn up. So I jumped off the roof. I didn't scoot to the edge; I just jumped and got the wind knocked out of me when I landed. I found our ladder, placed it against the house, and climbed back up to the roof. I wrapped my arms around my daughter and carried my nine - month - old with my teeth, by his little sleeper. Then I climbed down the ladder. Once on the ground, I had my little girl hold her brother, and I went back up to the roof to get my other daughter. Then I went back up again and got my wife. I tried to get my dog, but he just disappeared in the black smoke. I never saw him alive again,
I'm no hero. I'm just an ordinary person who'd help anybody. This happened to be the time when I helped my own family. I live to protect my family. Just likeRock—he lived to protect us.
24. What made the author wake up at 2:30am?
A. My dog's barking B. The medicine's effect
C. A burning fire D. A noise downstairs
25. How did Rock tell the author the danger downstairs?
A. He turned on a light downstairs.
B. He ran to the author's room upstairs.
C. He kept barking and running up to stairs.
D. He made some noise at the bottom of the stairs.
26. What did the author do after his family all stood on the roof?
A. He placed a blanket to keep warm.
B. He started screaming for help.
C. He jumped off the roof.
D. He broke open the window and kicked out the screen
27. Which of the following best describe the author?
A. Courageous and responsible B. Caring and selfish
C. Loyal and brave D. Strong and considerate
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者在半夜发生的火灾中营救和保护家人的经过。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The medicine that I take for my rheumatoid arthritis causes me to wake up in the middle of the night with a dry mouth. January 15, 2016, was no different. I, Indiana, US, awoke at 2:30am needing water.（我服用的治疗类风湿性关节炎的药物使我在半夜醒来时口干舌燥。2016年1月15日，也不例外。我在美国印第安纳州凌晨2:30醒来需要喝水。）”可知，是药物作用使作者半夜起床需要喝水。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Rock was doing down there, it made enough noise for me to go to him. By the time I made it to the bottom of the stairs, he was running up, and he never came up the stairs, no matter what.（Rock在下面，吵得让我不得不去找他。当我爬到楼梯下面的时候，他正在往上跑，之前不管发生什么，他从来没有上过楼梯。）”可知，Rock通过不停地叫，并且跑到楼梯上来引起作者的注意，告知作者发生的危险。故选C项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I got everybody out on the roof and threw a blanket out there so we wouldn't slip off. It was cold, January cold. Then I started screaming for help. But help never came.（我把所有人都弄到屋顶上，扔了一条毯子在外面，这样我们就不会滑倒了。天气很冷，一月很冷。然后我开始尖叫求救。但一直没有人来帮忙。）”可知，作者把所有家人都弄到屋顶上之后开始大喊求助。故选B项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Now, I'm scared of heights and have physical issues, what with my rheumatoid arthritis, but I couldn't let my family burn up. So I jumped off the roof.（现在，我有恐高症和身体问题——类风湿关节炎，但我不能让我的家人被烧伤。所以我从屋顶跳下来。）”和最后一段“I'm no hero. I'm just an ordinary person who'd help anybody. This happened to be the time when I helped my own family. I live to protect my family. Just like Rock—he lived to protect us.（我不是英雄。我只是一个愿意帮助任何人的普通人。这是我帮助自己家人的时候。我活着是为了保护我的家人。就像Rock一样他活着是为了保护我们。）”可知，作者有恐高症和身体问题，可是为了救自己的家人，他还是愿意从屋顶跳下来，他愿意负起保护家人的责任，所以可以推断他是个有勇气和负责任的人。故选A项。
C
There is no such thing as a “safe" level of drinking, with increased consumption of alcohol associated with poorer brain health, according to a new study.
In an observational study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, researchers from the University of Oxford studied the relationship between the self-reported alcohol intake of some 25,000 people in the UK, and their brain scans. The researchers noted that drinking had an effect on the brain's gray matter-regions in the brain that make up "important bits where information is processed," according to lead author Anya Topiwala, a senior clinical researcher at Oxford.
“The more people drank, the less the volume of their gray matter,“ Topiwala said via email. "Brain volume reduces with age and more severely with dementia(痴呆症).Smaller brain volume also predicts worse performance on memory testing,“ she explained. "While alcohol only made a small contribution to this(0. 8%), it was a greater contribution than other "modifiable" risk factors," she said, explaining that modifiable risk factors are “ ones you can do something about, in contrast to aging.”
The team also investigated whether certain drinking patterns, beverage types and other health conditions made a difference to the impact of alcohol on brain health. They found that there was no "safe" level of drinking-meaning that consuming any amount of alcohol was worse than not drinking it. They also found no evidence that the type of drink— such as wine, spirits or beer—affected the harm done to the brain. However, certain characteristics, such as high blood pressure, obesity or binge-drinking, could put people at higher risk, researchers added.
The risks of alcohol have long been known： Previous studies have found that there's no amount of liquor, wine or beer that is safe for your overall health. Alcohol was the leading risk factor for disease and premature death in men and women between the ages of 15 and 49 worldwide in 2016, accounting for nearly one in 10 deaths, according to a study published in The Lancet in 2018.
“It has been known for decades that heavy drinking is bad for brain health," Sadie Boniface, head of research at the UK's Institute of Alcohol Studies, said via email. "We also shouldn't forget alcohol affects all parts of the body and there are multiple health risks. ”
28. What is the function of gray matter?
A. Control the mount of alcohol B. Process information
C. Scan the brain D. Predict the performance on memory
29. Which is NOT true in the following statements according to the study?
A. Drinking alcohol is worse than not drinking.
B. With people getting older, brain volume reduces.
C. Alcohol was the major risk factor for disease and premature death.
D. The less people drink alcohol, the more the volume of their gray matter.
30. Which is one of the "modifiable" risk factors?
A. Smoking B. Aging C. Death D. Disease
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The mount of alcohol is not related to people's health.
B. People drinking alcohol do harm to their brain health.
C. People drinking alcohol lead to dementia.
D. Theresa great deal of liquor, wine or beer that is safe for health.
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述新的研究表明，无论你喝的是什么酒，无论喝多喝少，都会对大脑造成危害。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers noted that drinking had an effect on the brain's gray matter-regions in the brain that make up "important bits where information is processed".(研究人员指出，饮酒对大脑中的灰质区域有影响，这些区域构成了“处理信息的重要部位”。)”可知，大脑灰质区域的功能是处理信息。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The more people drank, the less the volume of their gray matter.(喝得越多，灰质的体积就越小。)”可知，喝酒越多，灰质的体积就越小。但文章并没有证据说明D项所描述的“The less people drink alcohol, the more the volume of their gray matter.(喝酒越少，大脑灰质的体积就越大。)”，所以不能就此推出喝酒越少，大脑灰质的体积就越大。所以D项表述错误。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“"While alcohol only made a small contribution to this (0. 8%), it was a greater contribution than other "modifiable" risk factors," she said, explaining that modifiable risk factors are “ ones you can do something about, in contrast to aging.”( 她说：“虽然酒精对这一现象的影响很小，但它比其他可调节的‘风险因素’的影响更大。”她解释说，可改变的风险因素是你可以做些什么，而不是衰老。”)”可知，“可调节的风险因素”指的是可控的因素，是相对于不可控的衰老而言。A. Smoking吸烟；B. Aging衰老；C. Death死亡；D. Disease疾病。所以只有A项“吸烟”是人能控制的因素，其他三项都是不可控因素。故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“There is no such thing as a “safe" level of drinking, with increased consumption of alcohol associated with poorer brain health, according to a new study.(一项新的研究表明，没有所谓的“安全”饮酒水平，饮酒量的增加与大脑健康状况的恶化有关。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述新的研究发现，无论你喝的是什么酒，无论喝多喝少，都会对大脑造成危害。B项“People drinking alcohol do harm to their brain health.(喝酒对大脑健康有害。)”概括文章主旨。故选B项。
D
Nostalgia (怀旧) has become increasingly common in our current climate of accelerated, unexpected change. More and more Americans are turning back with longing to what feels like simpler, sweeter times. They collect cassette tapes, manual typewriters even decades-old video games.
Is it a mistake to get too obsessed with the past? Some psychologists warn that too much devotion to the so-called good old days is an escape from reality; it can indicate loneliness or that a person is having a difficult time coping in the present. Psychologist Stephanie Coontz argues that nostalgia distracts us from addressing the problems of modern life and contribute to anxiety, depression , insomnia etc.
But new studies suggest that a modest dose of nostalgia is not only harmless, but actually beneficial. They suggest it helps strengthen our sense of identity and makes us feel more optimistic and inspired. It is also a tool for self — discovery and memories are a psychological immune response that is triggered when you want to take a break from negativity. Interestingly, those happy memories can be particularly beneficial both to kids in their teens and to society's elders. Recalling our childhood reminds us of “the times when we were accepted and loved unconditionally," says Krystine Batcho, a psychologist. "That is such a powerfully comforting phenomenon, knowing that there was a time in life when we didn't have to earn our love." Nostalgia can transform even the most ordinary past into legends which warms the heart and the body. Let's not forget that nostalgia has been a source of inspiration to innumerable American writers. Mark Twain recalled his boyhood, writing, "after all these years, I can picture that old time to myself now, just as it was then： The white town drowsing in the sunshine of a summer's morning."
So go ahead, daydream a little about your best childhood friend, your first car, a long - gone family pct. As Dr. Sedikides says， "Nostalgia is absolutely central to human experience. "But at the same time, keep these words of wisdom from the great inventor Charles Kettering in mind as well： "You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time. "
32. What did some psychologists in paragraph 2 probably agree?
A. Nostalgia will cause some mental problems.
B. Nostalgia makes us devoted to the good old days.
C. Nostalgia shows you are trying to get rid of loneliness.
D. Nostalgia helps us cope with the difficult time we are going through.
33. There are many benefits of nostalgia except ________
A. It can enable us to know ourselves better.
B. It can bring us some comfort when we recall.
C. We are likely to gain attention if we recall the happy childhood.
D. We can sometimes break away from negativity with happy memories.
34. What will be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. The bad influence of too much devotion to nostalgia.
B. The reasons why we should avoid nostalgia.
C. The bad memories that always stick around you.
D. The great changes nostalgia will bring to you.
35. What's the best title of the passage?
A. We all have a soft spot for nostalgia.
B. Nostalgia is actually good for you.
C. Don't be carried away by nostalgia.
D. There are many times when we like to recall.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文，介绍了怀旧的好处。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Some psychologists warn that too much devotion to the so-called good old days is an escape from reality; it can indicate loneliness or that a person is having a difficult time coping in the present. Psychologist Stephanie Coontz argues that nostalgia distracts us from addressing the problems of modern life and contribute to anxiety, depression , insomnia etc.”(一些心理学家警告说，对所谓美好的过去过于投入是对现实的逃避；它可以表示孤独，也可以表示一个人现在很难应付。心理学家Stephanie Coontz认为，怀旧会分散我们对现代生活问题的关注，导致焦虑、抑郁、失眠等。)可知，第二段中的一些心理学家可能同意怀旧会导致一些心理问题的说法。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“It is also a tool for self — discovery and memories are a psychological immune response that is triggered when you want to take a break from negativity.”(它也是一种自我发现的工具，记忆是一种心理免疫反应，当你想从消极中解脱出来时，它就会被触发。)可知，怀旧是一种自我发现，自我了解的工具，并且我们可以用快乐的回忆来摆脱消极。因此选项A和选项D是怀旧的好处。根据第三段第七句 “Nostalgia can transform even the most ordinary past into legends which warms the heart and the body.”(怀旧可以把最平凡的过去变成传奇，温暖人心和身体。)可知，当我们回忆时，它可以给我们带来一些安慰，所以选项B是怀旧的好处。选项C（如果我们回忆起快乐的童年，我们很可能会引起注意）在文中没有提及。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time.”(如果你总是想着昨天，就不会有一个更好的明天。)可知，下面一段将会讨论过分沉溺于怀旧的不良影响。故选A。

The 45-ycar-old Chen Liyan was sweeping the floor at Taiyuan Railway Station early last Tuesday morning when she found a small plastic bag near a chair and discovered 100-000 yuan inside. Chen was shocked but she was determined to return the money to its owner.
While working, Chen watched carefully for anyone who might have been the owner. She waited for over two hours, but having no luck, she went to the nearest police station to turn the money in. There, it was finally returned to its owner, Wang Zheng.
Wang thanked Chen repeatedly and apologized for the inconvenience, even offering her 5.000 yuan as a reward. To his surprise, however, Chen refused, believing that it would be wrong to accept money that she had not earned.
But what is even more surprising, perhaps, is that Chen's daughter, 16-year-old Liu Xia is currently seriously ill. Chen had already spent the last of her savings on the ongoing treatments and has also taken out a large loan.
Fortunately, Ma Dongbao, who works at the police station, stepped in. Living in the same apartment building as Chen's family, Ma was well aware of Chen's difficulties.
When Wang was told about Chen's situation, he decided to do something to help.

When Wang was told about Chen's situation, he decided to do something to help. Not only was he deeply moved by Chen and her honesty, but also he was concerned about Chen’s daughter’s illness. If she didn’t get timely treatment, she would lose her young life. If he gave this 100000 yuan to Chen, she wouldn’t accept it. He did intend to help Chen and her family. Wang scratched his head and was lost in thought. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind---why not set up a fundraising website to pay for Liu Xia’s hospital bill? He did so and also wrote to the local newspaper for the good virtue.
A large sum of money was raised and Chen Liyan was interviewed by the local newspaper. when asked why she didn't keep the money, she said," it was honesty that made me do so. Poor as I am, I think I am supposed to make money by my hard work.Words fail to convey my endless appreciation for what Wang Zhen did for my family and I also want to express my sincere gratitude to all the people who donated the money to help us. Now we have enough money for my daughter's ongoing treatment. " Indeed, it is honesty that makes Chen's family pull through the current tough situation. It speaks that one good turn deserves another.

So, please pay full attention to what I’m saying next. We still have been arranged to pay a visit to the local museum this weekend, but it’s on Saturday. We were informed that the museum wouldn’t open this Sunday due to some special reasons. And we are going to meet on the playground instead of the school gate at eight o’clock in the morning. We will go directly there by school bus. Owing to the very big museum, you’d better wear comfortable shoes for long walks. More than anything, please bring a notebook with you and make some notes. We will have a discussion about it in the class meeting next Monday.
Oh, I nearly forget to remind you of the rules. Don’t take pictures of the cultural relics. But if you do want to take a picture, you can do that in front of the museum. And nobody is allowed to touch anything there, or else they will be fined.
Have a nice weekend!

When a fire broke out in my home in the middle of the night, I knew I'd do anything I could to save my family. The medicine that I take for my rheumatoid arthritis causes me to wake up in the middle of the night with a dry mouth. January 15, 2016, was no different. I, Indiana, US, awoke at 2:30am needing water.
I was walking back upstairs from the kitchen when I heard my bulldog , Rock. Whatever Rock was doing down there, it made enough noise for me to go to him. By the time I made it to the bottom of the stairs, he was running up, and he never came up the stairs, no matter what. I think that was his way of telling me, "We've got to go back up. "When I got to the top of the stairs, I turned around and saw a light on, but I didn't remember leaving one on. I walked downstairs again, and that's when I saw fire. I immediately shouted to my wife to wake up and get our three kids. I grabbed a knife and cut out the plastic that covered the window to the porch roof. I then pried open the window and kicked out the screen. I started screaming for help. But help never came. I got everybody out on the roof and threw a blanket out there so we wouldn't slip off. It was cold, January cold. Then I started screaming for help. But help never came.
Now, I'm scared of heights and have physical issues, what with my rheumatoid arthritis, but I couldn't let my family burn up. So I jumped off the roof. I didn't scoot to the edge; I just jumped and got the wind knocked out of me when I landed. I found our ladder, placed it against the house, and climbed back up to the roof. I wrapped my arms around my daughter and carried my nine - month - old with my teeth, by his little sleeper. Then I climbed down the ladder. Once on the ground, I had my little girl hold her brother, and I went back up to the roof to get my other daughter. Then I went back up again and got my wife. I tried to get my dog, but he just disappeared in the black smoke. I never saw him alive again,
I'm no hero. I'm just an ordinary person who'd help anybody. This happened to be the time when I helped my own family. I live to protect my family. Just likeRock—he lived to protect us.
24. What made the author wake up at 2:30am?
A. My dog's barking B. The medicine's effect
C. A burning fire D. A noise downstairs
25. How did Rock tell the author the danger downstairs?
A. He turned on a light downstairs.
B. He ran to the author's room upstairs.
C. He kept barking and running up to stairs.
D. He made some noise at the bottom of the stairs.
26. What did the author do after his family all stood on the roof?
A. He placed a blanket to keep warm.
B. He started screaming for help.
C. He jumped off the roof.
D. He broke open the window and kicked out the screen
27. Which of the following best describe the author?
A. Courageous and responsible B. Caring and selfish
C. Loyal and brave D. Strong and considerate
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. B 27. A
【解析】

【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The medicine that I take for my rheumatoid arthritis causes me to wake up in the middle of the night with a dry mouth. January 15, 2016, was no different. I, Indiana, US, awoke at 2:30am needing water.（我服用的治疗类风湿性关节炎的药物使我在半夜醒来时口干舌燥。2016年1月15日，也不例外。我在美国印第安纳州凌晨2:30醒来需要喝水。）”可知，是药物作用使作者半夜起床需要喝水。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Rock was doing down there, it made enough noise for me to go to him. By the time I made it to the bottom of the stairs, he was running up, and he never came up the stairs, no matter what.（Rock在下面，吵得让我不得不去找他。当我爬到楼梯下面的时候，他正在往上跑，之前不管发生什么，他从来没有上过楼梯。）”可知，Rock通过不停地叫，并且跑到楼梯上来引起作者的注意，告知作者发生的危险。故选C项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I got everybody out on the roof and threw a blanket out there so we wouldn't slip off. It was cold, January cold. Then I started screaming for help. But help never came.（我把所有人都弄到屋顶上，扔了一条毯子在外面，这样我们就不会滑倒了。天气很冷，一月很冷。然后我开始尖叫求救。但一直没有人来帮忙。）”可知，作者把所有家人都弄到屋顶上之后开始大喊求助。故选B项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Now, I'm scared of heights and have physical issues, what with my rheumatoid arthritis, but I couldn't let my family burn up. So I jumped off the roof.（现在，我有恐高症和身体问题——类风湿关节炎，但我不能让我的家人被烧伤。所以我从屋顶跳下来。）”和最后一段“I'm no hero. I'm just an ordinary person who'd help anybody. This happened to be the time when I helped my own family. I live to protect my family. Just like Rock—he lived to protect us.（我不是英雄。我只是一个愿意帮助任何人的普通人。这是我帮助自己家人的时候。我活着是为了保护我的家人。就像Rock一样他活着是为了保护我们。）”可知，作者有恐高症和身体问题，可是为了救自己的家人，他还是愿意从屋顶跳下来，他愿意负起保护家人的责任，所以可以推断他是个有勇气和负责任的人。故选A项。
C
There is no such thing as a “safe" level of drinking, with increased consumption of alcohol associated with poorer brain health, according to a new study.
In an observational study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, researchers from the University of Oxford studied the relationship between the self-reported alcohol intake of some 25,000 people in the UK, and their brain scans. The researchers noted that drinking had an effect on the brain's gray matter-regions in the brain that make up "important bits where information is processed," according to lead author Anya Topiwala, a senior clinical researcher at Oxford.
“The more people drank, the less the volume of their gray matter,“ Topiwala said via email. "Brain volume reduces with age and more severely with dementia(痴呆症).Smaller brain volume also predicts worse performance on memory testing,“ she explained. "While alcohol only made a small contribution to this(0. 8%), it was a greater contribution than other "modifiable" risk factors," she said, explaining that modifiable risk factors are “ ones you can do something about, in contrast to aging.”
The team also investigated whether certain drinking patterns, beverage types and other health conditions made a difference to the impact of alcohol on brain health. They found that there was no "safe" level of drinking-meaning that consuming any amount of alcohol was worse than not drinking it. They also found no evidence that the type of drink— such as wine, spirits or beer—affected the harm done to the brain. However, certain characteristics, such as high blood pressure, obesity or binge-drinking, could put people at higher risk, researchers added.
The risks of alcohol have long been known： Previous studies have found that there's no amount of liquor, wine or beer that is safe for your overall health. Alcohol was the leading risk factor for disease and premature death in men and women between the ages of 15 and 49 worldwide in 2016, accounting for nearly one in 10 deaths, according to a study published in The Lancet in 2018.
“It has been known for decades that heavy drinking is bad for brain health," Sadie Boniface, head of research at the UK's Institute of Alcohol Studies, said via email. "We also shouldn't forget alcohol affects all parts of the body and there are multiple health risks. ”
28. What is the function of gray matter?
A. Control the mount of alcohol B. Process information
C. Scan the brain D. Predict the performance on memory
29. Which is NOT true in the following statements according to the study?
A. Drinking alcohol is worse than not drinking.
B. With people getting older, brain volume reduces.
C. Alcohol was the major risk factor for disease and premature death.
D. The less people drink alcohol, the more the volume of their gray matter.
30. Which is one of the "modifiable" risk factors?
A. Smoking B. Aging C. Death D. Disease
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The mount of alcohol is not related to people's health.
B. People drinking alcohol do harm to their brain health.
C. People drinking alcohol lead to dementia.
D. Theresa great deal of liquor, wine or beer that is safe for health.
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述新的研究表明，无论你喝的是什么酒，无论喝多喝少，都会对大脑造成危害。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers noted that drinking had an effect on the brain's gray matter-regions in the brain that make up "important bits where information is processed".(研究人员指出，饮酒对大脑中的灰质区域有影响，这些区域构成了“处理信息的重要部位”。)”可知，大脑灰质区域的功能是处理信息。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The more people drank, the less the volume of their gray matter.(喝得越多，灰质的体积就越小。)”可知，喝酒越多，灰质的体积就越小。但文章并没有证据说明D项所描述的“The less people drink alcohol, the more the volume of their gray matter.(喝酒越少，大脑灰质的体积就越大。)”，所以不能就此推出喝酒越少，大脑灰质的体积就越大。所以D项表述错误。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“"While alcohol only made a small contribution to this (0. 8%), it was a greater contribution than other "modifiable" risk factors," she said, explaining that modifiable risk factors are “ ones you can do something about, in contrast to aging.”( 她说：“虽然酒精对这一现象的影响很小，但它比其他可调节的‘风险因素’的影响更大。”她解释说，可改变的风险因素是你可以做些什么，而不是衰老。”)”可知，“可调节的风险因素”指的是可控的因素，是相对于不可控的衰老而言。A. Smoking吸烟；B. Aging衰老；C. Death死亡；D. Disease疾病。所以只有A项“吸烟”是人能控制的因素，其他三项都是不可控因素。故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“There is no such thing as a “safe" level of drinking, with increased consumption of alcohol associated with poorer brain health, according to a new study.(一项新的研究表明，没有所谓的“安全”饮酒水平，饮酒量的增加与大脑健康状况的恶化有关。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述新的研究发现，无论你喝的是什么酒，无论喝多喝少，都会对大脑造成危害。B项“People drinking alcohol do harm to their brain health.(喝酒对大脑健康有害。)”概括文章主旨。故选B项。
D
Nostalgia (怀旧) has become increasingly common in our current climate of accelerated, unexpected change. More and more Americans are turning back with longing to what feels like simpler, sweeter times. They collect cassette tapes, manual typewriters even decades-old video games.
Is it a mistake to get too obsessed with the past? Some psychologists warn that too much devotion to the so-called good old days is an escape from reality; it can indicate loneliness or that a person is having a difficult time coping in the present. Psychologist Stephanie Coontz argues that nostalgia distracts us from addressing the problems of modern life and contribute to anxiety, depression , insomnia etc.
But new studies suggest that a modest dose of nostalgia is not only harmless, but actually beneficial. They suggest it helps strengthen our sense of identity and makes us feel more optimistic and inspired. It is also a tool for self — discovery and memories are a psychological immune response that is triggered when you want to take a break from negativity. Interestingly, those happy memories can be particularly beneficial both to kids in their teens and to society's elders. Recalling our childhood reminds us of “the times when we were accepted and loved unconditionally," says Krystine Batcho, a psychologist. "That is such a powerfully comforting phenomenon, knowing that there was a time in life when we didn't have to earn our love." Nostalgia can transform even the most ordinary past into legends which warms the heart and the body. Let's not forget that nostalgia has been a source of inspiration to innumerable American writers. Mark Twain recalled his boyhood, writing, "after all these years, I can picture that old time to myself now, just as it was then： The white town drowsing in the sunshine of a summer's morning."
So go ahead, daydream a little about your best childhood friend, your first car, a long - gone family pct. As Dr. Sedikides says， "Nostalgia is absolutely central to human experience. "But at the same time, keep these words of wisdom from the great inventor Charles Kettering in mind as well： "You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time. "
32. What did some psychologists in paragraph 2 probably agree?
A. Nostalgia will cause some mental problems.
B. Nostalgia makes us devoted to the good old days.
C. Nostalgia shows you are trying to get rid of loneliness.
D. Nostalgia helps us cope with the difficult time we are going through.
33. There are many benefits of nostalgia except ________
A. It can enable us to know ourselves better.
B. It can bring us some comfort when we recall.
C. We are likely to gain attention if we recall the happy childhood.
D. We can sometimes break away from negativity with happy memories.
34. What will be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. The bad influence of too much devotion to nostalgia.
B. The reasons why we should avoid nostalgia.
C. The bad memories that always stick around you.
D. The great changes nostalgia will bring to you.
35. What's the best title of the passage?
A. We all have a soft spot for nostalgia.
B. Nostalgia is actually good for you.
C. Don't be carried away by nostalgia.
D. There are many times when we like to recall.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文，介绍了怀旧的好处。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Some psychologists warn that too much devotion to the so-called good old days is an escape from reality; it can indicate loneliness or that a person is having a difficult time coping in the present. Psychologist Stephanie Coontz argues that nostalgia distracts us from addressing the problems of modern life and contribute to anxiety, depression , insomnia etc.”(一些心理学家警告说，对所谓美好的过去过于投入是对现实的逃避；它可以表示孤独，也可以表示一个人现在很难应付。心理学家Stephanie Coontz认为，怀旧会分散我们对现代生活问题的关注，导致焦虑、抑郁、失眠等。)可知，第二段中的一些心理学家可能同意怀旧会导致一些心理问题的说法。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“It is also a tool for self — discovery and memories are a psychological immune response that is triggered when you want to take a break from negativity.”(它也是一种自我发现的工具，记忆是一种心理免疫反应，当你想从消极中解脱出来时，它就会被触发。)可知，怀旧是一种自我发现，自我了解的工具，并且我们可以用快乐的回忆来摆脱消极。因此选项A和选项D是怀旧的好处。根据第三段第七句 “Nostalgia can transform even the most ordinary past into legends which warms the heart and the body.”(怀旧可以把最平凡的过去变成传奇，温暖人心和身体。)可知，当我们回忆时，它可以给我们带来一些安慰，所以选项B是怀旧的好处。选项C（如果我们回忆起快乐的童年，我们很可能会引起注意）在文中没有提及。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time.”(如果你总是想着昨天，就不会有一个更好的明天。)可知，下面一段将会讨论过分沉溺于怀旧的不良影响。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句“But new studies suggest that a modest dose of nostalgia is not only harmless, but actually beneficial.”(但新的研究表明，适度的怀旧不仅无害，而且实际上是有益的。)可知，文章主要是讲怀旧的好处。故选B。

The 45-ycar-old Chen Liyan was sweeping the floor at Taiyuan Railway Station early last Tuesday morning when she found a small plastic bag near a chair and discovered 100-000 yuan inside. Chen was shocked but she was determined to return the money to its owner.
While working, Chen watched carefully for anyone who might have been the owner. She waited for over two hours, but having no luck, she went to the nearest police station to turn the money in. There, it was finally returned to its owner, Wang Zheng.
Wang thanked Chen repeatedly and apologized for the inconvenience, even offering her 5.000 yuan as a reward. To his surprise, however, Chen refused, believing that it would be wrong to accept money that she had not earned.
But what is even more surprising, perhaps, is that Chen's daughter, 16-year-old Liu Xia is currently seriously ill. Chen had already spent the last of her savings on the ongoing treatments and has also taken out a large loan.
Fortunately, Ma Dongbao, who works at the police station, stepped in. Living in the same apartment building as Chen's family, Ma was well aware of Chen's difficulties.
When Wang was told about Chen's situation, he decided to do something to help.

If she didn’t get timely treatment, she would lose her young life. If he gave this 100000 yuan to Chen, she wouldn’t accept it. He did intend to help Chen and her family. Wang scratched his head and was lost in thought. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind---why not set up a fundraising website to pay for Liu Xia’s hospital bill? He did so and also wrote to the local newspaper for the good virtue.
A large sum of money was raised and Chen Liyan was interviewed by the local newspaper. when asked why she didn't keep the money, she said," it was honesty that made me do so. Poor as I am, I think I am supposed to make money by my hard work.Words fail to convey my endless appreciation for what Wang Zhen did for my family and I also want to express my sincere gratitude to all the people who donated the money to help us. Now we have enough money for my daughter's ongoing treatment. " Indeed, it is honesty that makes Chen's family pull through the current tough situation. It speaks that one good turn deserves another.
