The secret of staying slim could be as simple as keeping your mind on your meals.

Research suggests that 【1】 (free) ourselves from distractions and concentrating completely on the food that is in front of us, 【2】 (help) us stay in shape. Such "mindful eating" ensures that the mind is in tune with(協(xié)調(diào)) the body, enabling it to "hear" the chemical messages【3】 tell it that we are full. Digestion involves a complex series of 【4】 (signal) between the gut(腸道) and the nervous system and it takes about 20 minutes for the brain _ 【5】 (tell) that the body has eaten enough. This means that if someone eats too quickly, the signals will come slowly, leading to overeating. Scientists say that distractions make it 【6】 (hard) for us to remember what we have eaten. This absent-mindedness stops us from feeling full _【7】 sends us reaching for some snacks later on. It is thought that our memory of what we have eaten plays a key role 【8】 controlling appetite. This means that distractions stop us remembering 【9】 detail of what we have eaten, leaving us feeling hungry. Before snacking, dieters should ask themselves if they are really hungry and if not, distract themselves by going for a walk or reading.

Done 【10】 (proper), mindful eating may not only leave you slim, but also make you enjoy mealtimes.

【答案】

【1】freeing

【2】helps

【3】that/which.

【4】signals

【5】to tell

【6】harder.

【7】and.

【8】in.

【9】the

【10】properly.

【解析】

【1】freeing 動(dòng)名詞短語freeing.…作that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句的主語。

【2】helps help是句子的謂語動(dòng)詞，主語是動(dòng)名詞短語freeing ourselves... and concentrating completely.，故用單數(shù)第三人稱形式。

【3】that/which.引導(dǎo)定語從句，并在從句中作主語，修飾先行詞messages，故填that/which．

【4】signals.可數(shù)名詞signal前有a series of修飾，故填復(fù)數(shù)形式。

【5】to tell. 句型It rakes…time to do sth.“做某事花……時(shí)間”為固定句式，it是形式主語，不定式是真正主語。

【6】harder.本句意為“分散注意力使得我們記住自己吃了什么變得更加困難”，故填形容詞比較級(jí)，在make后作賓語補(bǔ)足語。

【7】and.連接stops...and sends... 兩個(gè)并列謂語，故填連詞and。

【8】in. play a role in表示“在……中扮演角色／起作用”，是固定短語。

【9】the.特指“我們吃過什么”這一細(xì)節(jié)，detail前用定冠詞。

【10】properly.修飾動(dòng)詞done用副詞。

【題目】When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate（照亮）me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.

When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.

When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.

For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell….”We have never met.

It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist（心理學(xué)家），who will only fill up the healing（愈合的）silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.

【1】In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to ______.

A. become serious about her study

B. go to her friend’s house regularly

C. learn from her classmates at school

D. share poems and stories with her friend

【2】In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means ______.

A. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us

B. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from London

C. our unpleasant feeling about London disappeared

D. we parted with each other in London

【3】According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend _______.

A. call each other regularly

B. have similar personalities

C. enjoy writing to each other

D. dream of meeting each other

【4】What is the best title for the passage?

A. Unforgettable Experiences

B. Remarkable Imagination

C. Lifelong Friendship

D. Noble Companions

【題目】C

Ah, Thanksgiving--- truly my favorite holiday. A day off with family and friends and football and an exorbitant amount of food .It doesn’t get much more American than that. Let's look at some interesting Thanksgiving traditions to shed light on this delicious American tradition.

How it started

The story: In the early 1620s, as the first English settlers ( called Pilgrims) arrived in America searching for a life free of religious persecution , they experienced very difficult harvests- as the climate was quite different from that of England. They eventually established (temporarily) good relations with the local Native Americans, called the Wampanoag tribe. The Wampanoag leader Squanto, along with his tribe of friendly Native Americans, helped the English settlers learn how to farm and fish in the harsh and rocky climate of Massachusetts. In 1621, they celebrated the Harvest Festival together. And the Thanksgiving tradition was born! It became an official American holiday under Abraham Lincoln amidst the turmoil of the American Civil War in 1863.

What it means now

Now, after the American colonists destroyed native cultures and sequestered them onto reservations, the current American Thanksgiving has hardly anything to do with a celebration of cordial relations between peoples. Today, we try to forget America's guilty past and celebrate our family, friends, and good health on this day. Americans celebrate Thanksgiving much like Chinese people do the Spring Festival - with family members pouring in from all directions to get reunion and break bread. We play football, watch football, and eat a hell of a lot of turkey.

American Turkey

Founding Father Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird of America. In a letter to his daughter, he wrote that the turkey, in comparison to the eagle, was " a far more respectable bird" and a true native of America .

Additionally, he thought that bald eagles had a " bad moral character".

Presidential Pardon

The American president pardons one turkey every year. Every year since I947, the National Turkey Federation presents one live turkey to the President, and in 1987, President Ronald Reagan jokingly pardoned the live turkey. This became an official tradition in 1989. Pardoned turkeys are sent off to live the rest of their short lives. Lucky turkeys!

Black Friday

This is the most despicable of Thanksgiving traditions. A caveat(提醒)---many Americans don't take part in this activity of burning money. The Friday after Thanksgiving is called " Black Friday" , and all across America, people go out to their local stores to buy discounted everything, in packages of 36. Every year, a few people die from trampling as the doors to the store open. Thankfully, with the rise of e-commerce sites such as Amazon, people are moving more to online shopping to take advantage of Black Friday deals.

【1】Which of the following is the most extremely unpleasant tradition of Thanksgiving?

A. American Turkey

B. Black Friday

C. Presidential Pardon

D. Thanksgiving decoration

【2】 Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird of America because____.

A. turkey was much larger in comparison to the bald eagle

B. his daughter liked turkey more than the bald eagle

C. bald eagles were true natives of America

D. he thought highly of the bird

【3】The original meaning of Thanksgiving was____

A. to celebrate the friendly relations between the first English settlers and the local Native Americans

B. to praise the local Wampanoag tribe for their useful instructions

C. to encourage the new settlers to learn how to farm and fish in the new world

D. to apologize to the local Native Americans for the wrongs that the first English settlers had done

【4】 What's the author's purpose of writing this passage?

A. To warn people of the bad influence of Thanksgiving.

B. To make people aware of the potential danger of Black Friday.

C. To introduce some interesting Thanksgiving traditions to people.

D. To remind people not to forget the true meaning of Thanksgiving.

【題目】Though the last book of the spectacular (壯觀的) Harry Potter series was released seven years ago in 2007, the young wizard continues to be extremely popular with both kids and adults. Over the years, Harry Potter fans have been able to experience numerous aspects of the young wizard’s life, right down to his favorite drink — butter beer. Now thanks to a British hotel, they can also spend a night in the wizard’s Hogwarts Castle dormitory room.

The four-star Georgian Hotel in Central London, which recently opened its two wizard chambers(房間), is ideally suited to reproducing J.K. Rowling’s school of wizardry (巫術(shù)). That’s because the hotel, which is still run by the descendants of the original owners, dates all the way back to 1851. It still remains its original styles inside.

According to the owner of the 163-year-old Georgian Hotel, the idea originated as a way to create a kid-friendly environment in a hotel that is well-known for its Victoria Classic and Belgravia Boutique rooms.

The wizard chambers that have been refinished to resemble the Hogwarts Castle dormitory rooms are furnished with everything a wizard fan could think of — four-poster beds, stone wash basins, potion bottles, cauldrons (汽鍋，大鍋), spelling books and even study tables. In order to make them appear even more magical, the hotel owners have added their own special touches that include placing a wand in the hand of the Mona Lisa painting that is in one of the chambers.

As you may have guessed, these unique accommodations are not cheap. The rooms, breakfast included, cost about $350 for two people. Kids sharing the same room pay only an additional $40 each. Given that the big wizard chamber can contain up to five people, the overall cost is perfect for families that are all Harry Potter fans. Special packages include a Muggle Walking Tour that takes Harry Potter fans through the areas of the city where parts of the movies were filmed or a visit to Warner Brothers Studio, home of the Harry Potter films’ sets and props (道具).

The hotel is certainly generating a lot of buzz among Harry Potter fans!

【1】How long does the Georgian Hotel exist?

A. It has been existing in London for three hundred years..

B. It has a history of more than 160 years.

C. It has been there since 2007.

D. It has been visited by the Harry Potter fans since 1851.

【2】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?.

A. The hotel opening two wizard chambers originated as a way to create a kid-friendly environment.

B. All of the books of the spectacular (壯觀的) Harry Potter series were released seven years ago in 2007.

C. As you may have guessed, these unique accommodations are very cheap.

D. The wizard chambers aren’t furnished as a wizard fan could think of.

【3】If Mr Green and his wife with three children want to stay in the hotel for a night, how much should they pay?

A. $ 350. B. $ 390. C. $ 430. D. $ 470.

【4】The best title of the passage is _______.

A. Stay in the magical Harry Potter rooms

B. Play with Harry Potter

C. A recent Harry Potter Hotel

D. A Expensive Hotel
