Stanford was one of twenty-one American universities that took part in the contest this year.

【4】 . It began in 1970 at Texas A and M University. The contest quickly became popular in the United States and Canada. It developed and grew as more and more schools took part in local and area contests.

The first final competition was held in 1977 at the Association for Computer Machinery Computer Science Conference. Today, a network of universities holds area competitions that send the winners to the world finals, now organized by IBM. Contest spokesman Doug Heintzman says the world champions receive prizes and scholarships. 【5】

【2】C

【3】B

【4】F

【5】G

【解析】

試題分析：

【1】E 根據(jù)前一句The Battle of the Brains took place in Harbin, China.可知腦力比賽在中國哈爾濱進行。接著應(yīng)該敘述比賽的規(guī)則。選項中只有E項屬于規(guī)則。故E正確。

【2】C 本段之前內(nèi)容都在敘述其中的一個問題：把巧克力塊分成盡可能多的小塊。這與第一段最后real world problems相比就是最簡單的問題。故C項符合上下文串聯(lián)。

【3】B 根據(jù)第一句The students first listed the problems in order of difficulty.學(xué)生首先按照困難的順序把問題列出來。然后再列出每個問題的具體要求。故B之前。

【4】F 本段介紹的是全世界腦力比賽的歷史，選項中只有F項內(nèi)容屬于這一方面的內(nèi)容。故F項符合上下文串聯(lián)。

【5】G 根據(jù)前句Contest spokesman Doug Heintzman says the world champions receive prizes and scholarships.得知贏得比賽的人會獲得獎品和獎學(xué)金。接下來這句應(yīng)該還是敘述獲勝者的獎品。故G項正確。

【題目】As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night,it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is necessary for a healthy mind and body.

Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact,it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.

The amount of stress a person can bear depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress and such characters are obviously important material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress in whatever form we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choices between “fight” and “flight” and in more ancient days the choice made the difference between life and death. The crises (危機）we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme,but however little the stress,it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long,through continued exposure to stress that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from our lives(it would be unwise to do so even if we could),we need to find ways to deal with it.

【1】People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because_________.

A. they are travelling fast all the time

B. they are becoming busier with their work

C. they do not know how to enjoy themselves

D. they do not believe that relaxation is important for health

【2】In Paragraph 3,” such a reaction” refers to “___________”.

A. responding to crises quickly

B. losing heart on seeing difficulties

C. making a choice between ‘flight' and ‘fight'

D. reacting to stress both chemically and physically

【3】We can learn from the text that _______.

A. stress is always harmful to people

B. we can find some ways to avoid stress

C. different people can bear different amounts of stress

D. it is easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work

【4】What would the passage deal with,if it were to continue?

A.How to keep mentally fit.

B.Why we have a tight schedule.

C.How to handle stress correctly.

D.How we can benefit from stress.

【題目】Selfies (自拍) have become an increasingly common way to capture memorable moments. When it comes to taking selfies , knowing the following tips can directly affect the quality of your final product. .

The use of light is vital to improving image quality. Lights can help avoid shadows and create soft features on your face, so turn your face toward the main light. source. If you want to be creative, play with light angles by turning your body, but make sure the photo is properly exposed and your face is lit from the front or the side. Besides, avoid taking selfies against the main light source or with overhead lighting. Additionally, natural light possesses a warmth that makes you look like you're glowing.（發(fā)光）

When taking selfies, angles also matter a lot. Hold the camera away from your face, and try to take photos both horizontally（水平地） and vertically. If not, your face might look bigger than usual. Ideally, the universal selfie angle is 45 degrees above your head. But you should study your face at different angles because finding your best angle requires you having seen all of them.

One problem with selfies is that most have distracting backgrounds. You can always do more to show others your best side. Try to simplify the background by taking selfies outdoors or in spacious areas. Document yourself engaging in interesting activities-hiking with family members, visiting landmarks, or working out with friends. At least, you can make the photo appealing by getting rid of your utstretched arm or a background that's too busy.

【1】To get an image of high quality, you need to _______.

A. be under the light source

B. be against the main light

C. face the main light source

D. have the photo fully exposed

【2】How can you find the angle that suits you most?

A. Study your face at different angles.

B. Hold the camera far enough from you.

C. Keep the camera lower than your face.

D. Place the camera 45 degrees above your head.

【3】Which of the following should be avoided when taking selfies?

A. The use of natural light.

B. A landmark as a background.

C. Changes of the skin tone.

D. A busy background.
