AWL is well known for its dictionaries and English language teaching materials. Some readers have written in to ask us for the latest information on high quality books on English, so here we introduce two texts that aim to improve spoken English fluency.
Let’s Speak (Beginner)
By Bev Dusuya, Naoko Ozeki and Kevin Bergman
ISBN: 962001359X
Speak Up (Pre Intermediate)
By Kev Kusuya, Nako Zeki
ISBN: 058222805O
“Teach the students about your culture and help them talk about their own.” How often are these worthy goals kept from being achieved by the limitations of your beginner level learners? Students at all levels want to talk about culture.
Topics include food, shopping, sports, fashion, the roles of men and women health, music and others.
These are all chosen from surveys of over 15,000 students about their own interests in cross cultural communication.
“Let’s Speak” and “Speak Up” share a special but excellent way that allows all students to take part in.
The series has questions which start thinking and help collect opinions about personal topics. Conversation practice is provided by using models of basic exchanges on the topic. Also, the cultural information presented in the series comes in the form of interesting, relevant facts and ideas from other countries through listening tasks and Culture Quiz exercises.
“Let’s Speak” is fit for entry level students of all ages. “Speak Up” provides for the needs of higher level beginners. Offering the same careful listening and speaking help, but with slightly more open ended discussion.
For any information about AWL’s books, please get in touch with the following address:

You watch a sad film and get caught up in your emotions. You cry your eyes out at the dramatic plot — you feel sad for the characters if they suffer, or happy for them when they are successful. It is only when the movie is over that you realize that what you were watching is not real.
But why couldn’t you accept that when you were so absorbed in the movie? It was reported in Science Daily this week that scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US, discovered that people simply cannot think emotionally and logically at the same time.
It has long been known that something different goes on in our brain when we use logic, rather than responding to something emotionally. Thinking logically is a step-by-step process, in which people make decisions through reasoning and find answers rationally. When we think emotionally, or empathize (有同感), we look at things from someone else’s point of view and try to feel their pain.
Now scientists have found that thinking logically and emotionally are like the two ends of a seesaw (跷跷板) — when we’re busy empathizing, the part of the brain used for cold, hard analysis is suppressed. And it’s also true the other way round.
To come to this conclusion, scientists gathered 45 people — men and women — to take brain scans as they solved different kinds of puzzles. Some of the puzzles were tough and involved math and physics and others were social problems that required participants to put themselves in other people’s shoes.
Scientists found that when participants were doing a math problem, the region in their brain that is associated with logical thinking lit up, and when asked to make emotional decisions, the region for emotional thinking lit up. But the most interesting part is that when asked to solve problems that required both logical and emotional responses, the participants always used one of the regions at a time while the other one went dark.
“Empathetic and analytic thinking are… mutually (相互之间地) exclusive (排斥的) in the brain,” said Anthony Jack, leader of the study. “You don’t have to favor one, but cycle efficiently between them, and employ the right network at the right time.”
However, people sometimes ended up using the wrong one. This explains why some people are good at solving complex math problems but have poor social skills. And why even the smartest people get taken in by fake but touching stories.
41. Why does the author mention watching movies at the beginning of the passage?
A. To show that we are easily moved by things that are not real.
B. To show that sometimes we only use emotional thinking.
C. To introduce the research based on this kind of experiences.
D. To prove emotional thinking is powerful.
42. Scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US, proved ______ through their recent tests.
A. logical thinking works differently from emotional thinking
B. logical thinking is much more efficient than emotional thinking
C. logical thinking and emotional thinking take turns to function independently
D. logical thinking and emotional thinking could work together
43. The underlined word “suppressed” in Paragraph 4 means ______.
A. starting to react actively
B. being completely damaged
C. to prevent something from working effectively
D. obtaining an opposite function
44. We can conclude from the last two paragraphs that ______.
A. people have to frequently switch between different types of thinking
B. adopting the wrong thinking mode could have bad results
C. people could only either have excellent logical thinking or emotional thinking
D. people who think logically could easily be controlled
45. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. Your Heart vs Your Mind B. Your Emotions
C. Logical Thinking D. Movies and Feelings
C
I still remember the days when I was a youthful student in an engineering school. I lived a casual life, without caring about the future. I smoked, drank with friends and made girlfriends. Little did I realized that casualness would certainly lead to loss.
Two years had passed and I was staring down a report card that highlighted FAIL in more than half the subjects. I didn’t care, at least not till my dad found out about it. You see, I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me.
Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He lost his temper but he just told me, “son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.” It hit me like a roundhouse kick from Bruce Lee. I was jolted(震摇) out of my bones! I couldn’t comprehend how to pay off the debts that I had accumulated in college. I owed everybody money: the grocery store, the bars, the restaurants, my friends, ect. I was living a life filled with credit.
When I came back to college, I knew if I din’t change the way I live my life I wouldn’t be able to pay everybody off. So I decided to make some changes, drastic changes. I quitted smoking, cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road, starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books.
One year later, I went from a miserable failure to a magna cum laude(优等成绩). Life was never the same again. This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large. Even today it still motivates me when I feel that I’m about to lose or give up. It reminds me that I can do it!

D
How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child — things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his parents, he is not so free to do what he wishes to do;he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong.
When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.
51. According to the second paragraph, the writer thinks that _______.
A. only children are interested in life
B. life for a child is comparatively easy
C. a child is always loved whatever he does
D. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return
52. After a child grows up, he ________.
A. will have little time playing
B. has to be successful in finding a job
C. can still ask for help in time of trouble
D. should be able to take care of himself
53. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. People are often satisfied with their life.
B. Life is less interesting for old people.
C. Adults are freer to do what they want to do.
D. Adults should no longer rely on others.
54. The main idea of the passage is _________.
A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains
B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard
C. childhood is the more enjoyable time in one’s life
D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life
55. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss _________.
A. examples of successful young men
B. how to build up one’s position in society
C. pleasures and pains of old people
D. what to do when one has problems in life

阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
She had to pack up her bedroom in Virgina Beach, where she lived with her mother, two sisters and brother. She had to say goodbye to her two dogs, who used to sleep in her bed, and to the beach, where she loved to ride waves on her boogie board.
But it was time to take the leap, however, heartbreaking and awkward it would be. Even at 14, Douglas knew that.
So off she went about 1,200 miles to West Des Moines, Lowa, to train with a coach from China and live with a white family she had never been met. When she arrived, Douglas thought that she must be the only black person in the state. When she woke up, she always said, “This isn’t my bed set. Where am I ?”
Liang Chow, who had coached the Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, transformed Douglas into one of the best gymnasts in the world, helping her skyrocket from an average member of the national team to the top of the sport. And a couple with four young daughters became her second family, nurturing her in Iown while her real family supported her from afar.
That move also was important in Douglas’s making history. By winning the Olympic all-round title, she became the first black woman to do so. She also became the fourth American woman to win the all-round, following Mary Lou Retton in 1984, Carly Patternson in 2004 and Nastia Liukin in 2008.
Douglas won, scoring 62.232 points, and led the competition from beginning to end. Viktoria Komova, who sobbed into her coach’s chest when she learned she had lost, won the silver, with 61.973 points. Aliya Mustafina, the 2010 world all-round champion, won the bronze with 59.566 points. The other American in the competition, Aly Raisman finished fourth after losing a tiebreaker(决胜局) to Mustafina.
Douglas said she had felt confident all along that she would win. “It was just an amazing feeling,” she said, giggling(咯咯笑). “I was just like, believe, don’t fear, believe.” After sacrificing(牺牲) so much, she had no other choice but to push forward, she said.
56. Why did Douglas leave her home at 14? (no more than 10 words)
57. How did she feel when Douglas first arrived at the new home? (no more than 5 words)
58. What does the underlined word “skyrocket” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?( no more than 3 words)
59. Is Douglas the first American woman who won all-round? Why do you think so? (no more than 15 words)
60. What do you think of Douglas from the story? Give your reasons. (no more than 20 words)

61. One possible version:
Dear Bruce,I’d like to study English in your language center this summer vacation. I think it will greatly improve my spoken English and also I’ll learn about American culture. Studying in a traditional class in our country, I’d like a change. I think it’s better to discuss in class and it’ll be interesting to make a survey of society. If I have a chance to stay in an American family, that will be better. Living there, I can enjoy their culture and foods. I am wondering if I have a chance to live near the language center. If so, I can go to school on foot, which I think is easy for me to get to know the place quickly.
Besides, I’d like some information about your fees. I’d be grateful if you give me a hand. Looking forward to your reply.
Best whishes!

My daughter Kelly is a cautious person.She needs to warm up to situations, is hesitant to try new things.When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants, “Girls rule, boys drool.” But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.
This has been challenging for me at times.“Shy” is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me.But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence.This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team.This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels.And this year she completed her first kidstriathlon (三项全能) .
On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son’s birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon.We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she’d need, and we kept talking about the race.But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me a few too many times.She was nervous but trying to keep it together.
And then it was her turn.From the second she jumped into the water, my heart soared.My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen.She dominated(主宰) that swim, crushed that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face.
I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life.It wasn’t because she did a sport or anything like that.It was because she was afraid of something and conquered(克服) that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn’t seen before.
All day I would find myself just looking over at her and smiling.She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day.I won the chance to see my girl shine.
Shine on, sweet baby.

Robotic Puppy
Roll over, sit and fetch aren’t commands normally given to a robot, but the smart toy company WowWee has developed a new way of owning a puppy.
CHIP (Canine Home Intelligent Pet) is a robotic dog with blue LED eyes and pointy ears and can sit, shake, dance and make all types of dog noises.It also has tracking capabilities to help locate its owner.“The beauty about CHIP is that it has its own thing going on,” said Sufer, CTO at WowWee.“It has its own life and own kind of intelligence.Even if you’re not around, it’s always doing something.”
CHIP uses wheels to get around and is loaded with sensors(传感器) that give it a 360-degree view to find its ball.The pup is Bluetooth enabled, which connects to a wristband worn by its owner.The wristband, similar to a watch, displays icons(图标)for different commands such as a thumb-up, which allows you to give your pup a digital belly rub.With its owner wearing a smart wristband, it can even follow him around the room.
“We worked on CHIP for about five to six months,” Davin Sufer, told dailymail.com, “We tyhttps://p.9136.com/1ce up with a concept, model and product and get it on shelves within a year.” The company plans to start shipping units by next fall, which will allow them to load up the robotic dog with sensors and add many more animated responses per-owner interactivity.
The high-tech toy company made its debut(处女作)in 2004 by releasing the 1.5 foot RoboSapien, which sold millions of units.MiP, which hit shelves last year, is a seven inch tall robot covered in white with black accents.Users can direct it, change its emotions and make it dance to any song on your iPad.It’s loud, fast and active.
About 15 years ago, a company called ToyQuest developed the first ever electronic robotic dog---Tekno, the Robotic Puppy.The company sold over seven million units in the first season and 40 million more during its original four years of production.Tekno was built with over 160 emotions and instructions, but most importantly offered consumers a quick look into the future.
60.According to Sufer, the amazing characteristic of CHIP is that _____.
A.it is loaded with special sensors
B.it can make all kinds of dog noises
C.it has quick response to the commands
D.it can do something without instructions
61.CHIP can follow its owner with the help of _____.
A.a watch
B.a smart wristband
C.pointy ears
D.blue LED eyes
62.From the passage, we can know_______.
A.CHIP can be bought in the store now
B.WowWee introduced its first product last year
C.Tekno provided the bright future of the robotic puppy
D.MiP is the first company to develop the robotic puppy

Does happiness have a scent?
When someone is happy, can you smell it?You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug.But can you also smell their happiness? Surprising new research suggests that happiness does indeed have a scent, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted through smell, reports Phys.org.
For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them.All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or smokers, and all were asked to ____ drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period.
Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers monitored their reactions.Only women were selected to smell the samples, apparently because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signaling—though its unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents.
Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scents—particularly their facial expressions—indicated a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who sniffed them.
“Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun Semin, a professor at Koc University in Turkey.
This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent, but that the scent is capable of transmitting the emotion to others.The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a scent too.This ensures previous research suggesting that some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings.
Researchers have yet to isolate(分离) exactly what the chemical compound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine what the potential applications for such a finding could be.Happiness perfumes, for instance, could be invented.Scent therapies(香味疗法)could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety.Perhaps the most surprising result of the study, however, is our broadened understanding of how emotions get communicated, and also how our own emotions are potentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us.What is the main finding of the new research?
A.Men produce more sweats.
B.Negative emotions have a smell.
C.Pleasant feelings can be smelt out.
D.Women have a better sense of smell.
64.The underlined part “abstain from” in Paragraph 3 probably means _________.
A.avoid
B.practice
C.continue
D.try
65.What is the application value of the new research?
A.Perfumes could help people understand each other.
B.Some smells could be developed to better our mood.
C.Perfumes could be produced to cure physical diseases.
D.Some smells could be created to improve our appearance.
66.We can learn from the last paragraph that ____.
A.happiness comes from a scent of sweat
B.positive energy can deepen understanding
C.people need more emotional communication
D.social surroundings can influence our emotions
D
Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation that threatens the survival of companies everywhere.It’s based on the assumption that old ideas will always work, so they shouldn’t be challenged.While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don’t change, it’s unlikely to hold true in a changing situation.In today’s rapid changing global environment, old methods often dont work, and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems.
Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security.If everyone else believes it, then it must be true.Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right, and being right is good.They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work.In 1977, Ken Olsen, co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), stated “There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home.” Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry, DEC no longer exists.People seem to forget that since innovation is a change, there can be no innovation without change.Unfortunately, conventional wisdom prevents leaders, followers and companies from changing and therefore innovating.If companies don’t innovate, but their competitors do, the future is likely to be problematic.Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative companies and products in history across many industries, so it has a powerful effect on business success.
Ted Turner (founder of CNN) knew little, if anything, about the news business, but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour, as was common before CNN.Turner’s solution was to create a cable channel dedicated to news 24 hours a day.The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time, and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day.However, ____.Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information.Due to conventional thinking, the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted.They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future.
Conventional wisdom prevents creativity, flexibility and risk-taking, so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it.To survive, thrive and maintain competitive advantage, companies must be flexible when reacting to change.
67.DEC has disappeared probably because ___________.
A.the consumers didn’t like its products
B.the leaders lacked the sense of security
C.the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas
D.the employees took many risks with changes
68.The founding of CNN is used as an example to prove _________.
A.missing opportunities could lead to failure
B.changing could contribute to business success
C.watching news at the dinner hour is convenient
D.conventional wisdom influences business success
69.What does the underlined part probably mean?
A.Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly.
B.Most of the viewers don’t like to watch the news at work.
C.It’s necessary to understand when people watch the news.
D.It’s easy to know people needn’t watch the news all the time.
70.The passage is mainly written to tell us that ______.
A.old methods are changing with time
B.opportunities lead to business success
C.conventional wisdom limits innovation
D.successful companies need wise leaders
Lost in the Post
How would you feel if the letter you penned carefully and posted to your favorite star ended up in the recycling bin? Thats where unopened fan mail sent to singer Taylor Swift was found in Nashville.___71___
Swift’s management said it was an accident, but dealing with piles of letters is a burden for most public figures.According to the BBC reporter Jon Kelly, at the height of his fame, Johnny Depp was said to receive up to 10,000 letters a week.___72___
The dawn of the digital age in which public figures with a Twitter account can be messaged directly has made the process easier.The White House says it deals with 20,000 messages addressed to President Barack Obama each day.
Some celebrities don’t want letters.In 2008, Beatles drummer Ringo Starr said that he would throw them out because he was too busy.___73___ Robert Pattinson, star of the Twilight films, claims that he reads tonnes and tonnes of letters from fans, which takes up almost all his free time.
Many artists, however, outsource(外包) the task of opening, reading and replying.Sylvia “Spanky” Taylor, 58, has run a service in California that does just that since 1987.___74___ Most letters are simply declarations of affection and admiration, she says.A few ask for money.A small number contain threats which require her to contact the celebrity’s security team and law enforcement.
The biggest problem for Taylor is working out how to deal with the correspondence(通信).Presents such as soft toys are sent to local hospitals, and most of the letters just get shredded and recycled.
___75___ For some, this is enough, according to Lynn Zubernis, an expert at West Chester University.She says that the relationship between fan and celebrity may exist only in the mind of the former but it comes from a deeply-rooted human need for community.
A.Others do attempt to get through it themselves.
B.In fact, there is no alternative to deal with the problem.
C.How could he have enough time to skim through these letters one by one?
D.Typically, correspondence is acknowledged by a photo with a printed “signature”.
E.Accordingly, the correspondence problem has been difficult for the computer to automate
F.She and her staff deal with up to 20,000 items of mail a month on behalf of 26 celebrities.
G.This incident has caused a wide public concern about how the public figures deal with the letters or mails from the fans.

Last Saturday, our class visited the Museum of the Anti-Japanese War. When our school bus arrived at the Museum, we got off and entered in line. The moment we went into the exhibition room, we were attracted by the pictures and descriptions about the war on the wall. Some students took notes while others had a little discussion. We were shocked at the cruelty of the war. Then we gathered in another room and listened to an old soldier telling the stories about the war. Therefore, we had a better understanding of the history.
Before we left, we all came to the front of the museum and took a picture with the old soldier in memory of our visit. We were very glad to meet such a true hero.
We hope by visiting the museum more people can remember what happened in the war and treasure the peaceful life.

After a terrible electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years.The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life.His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.
One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once.He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning.Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree.He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw:a pl o u g h a wall.When Mrs Edwards came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.
The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread, and many doctors came to examine him.Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning.However, none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened.The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.
41.The reason for Robert’s attempts to kill himself was that
A.he had to live in a dark and silent world B.a terrible traffic accident happened to him
C.he was struck by the lightning once more D.nobody in the world cared about him
42.What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?
A.Taking a walk with a stick. B.Driving a car.
C.Sheltering from the rain under a tree. D.Lying on the ground.
43.What did Robert see first when he regained his sight after the shock
A.A plough and a wall. B.His neighbors.
C.His wife who called for help to save him. D.Many doctors surrounding him.
43.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Robert had been deaf and blind for nearly ten years.
B.Robert hid himself under the tree for 20 minutes.
C.Robert could hear his wife’s shouting for help when he woke up.
D.The family’s love helped Robert regain confidence to live.
45.We can infer from the text that ________.

C
The temperature is sharply rising with each passing day.People, including many experts, find it difficult to slow down the process.However, leaving coal and major fossil fuels in the ground could help to limit climate change in the future, according to a new study.That is to say, a third of oil reserves on the earth, half of gas reserves and over 80 percent of current coal reserves should not be used before the year 2050.If we are to prevent global temperatures from rising above 2 degrees Celsius in the near future, we ought to carry some measures to severely control the emissions from factories vehicles and even our daily-life cooking.However, it is a goal that seems to be impossible in our eyes.
“Policy makers in different countries must realize that their attempt to completely use the fossil fuels within their countries is wholly incompatible(矛盾的) with their hope to reach the 2-degree goal,” Dr.C hr is o p he M c Glade at University College London’s Energy Institute said in a statement.“If they go ahead with developing their own resources,” he added, “they must be asked which reserves elsewhere should remain u n burned in order for the carbon budget not to go beyond the limit.”
It’s not surprising to see how tapping into these unused reserves would be attractive.Energy-related industry is a big business all over the world.There are many coal reserves in China, Russia and the United States, along with over 260 thousand million barrels of oil reserves in the Middle East.Not to mention that oil is currently being developed in the Arctic.Companies spent over $670 billion last year in the expansion of fossil fuels, but according to the new model used in this latest study, developers may need to rethink their plans to develop these underground resources so as to make some contributions to control the world temperature from rising high in the future.
“We’ve now got practical figures of the quantities and locations of fossil fuels that should remain unused in trying to keep within the 2-degree temperature limit,” added M c Glade.World leaders and policy makers should take the advice to heart, because a recent IPCC report warned that if immediate and great actions are not taken soon, climate change will cause irreversible(不可逆转的) impacts on environments worldwide, leaving the world an unsafe place for us to live in.
46.According to Paragraph 1, our goal is to
A.discover more fossil fuels for the future generation
B.slow down the climate change
C.refuse to use reserves on the earth
D.keep the temperature rise below 2 degrees Celsius
47.The underlined word “emissions” in Paragraph 1 refers to
A.things that are sent out into the air
B.products that are made from fossil fuels
C.factors that cause the climate change
D..changes that happen after temperature rise
48.According to what M c Glade said in Paragraph 2, all countries should
A.make full use of their fossil fuels
B.work together towards the 2-degree goal
C.find better ways to dig out the coal
D.increase the global carbon budget
49.We can infer from Paragraph 3 that great efforts have been made in
A.digging out the oil in the Middle East
B.getting people to rethink their fuel plans
C.developing fossil fuels around the world
D.developing energy-related industry worldwide
49.What is the author’s attitude towards the future of temperature control?
A.Confident. B.Negative. C.Satisfied. D.Unclear
D
It’s hard to find Alice Munro in the media.Even after she won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature, the Canadian writer just appeared for a quick interview and then dropped out of sight.On Dec 29th, she still didn’t seek the spotlight when she was named one of the five Women of the Year by the Financial Times.
In Munro’s eyes, ordinary lives always hide larger dramas.So she records what we casually think of as the everyday actions of normal people.She often focuses on life in her hometown, a small village in Ontario which she is most familiar with.She writes about the ordinary things in the village-trees in the Ontario wilderness, poor country schools and long last illnesses.Above all, she talks about girls and women who have seemingly ordinary lives but struggle against daily misfortune.
She has a special talent for uncovering the extraordinary in the ordinary.These are ordinary people, ordinary stories,but she has the magic.Her precise language, depth of detail and the logic of her storytelling have made her stories inviting.
Runaway, one of M u n r os representative works, is a good example of her writing style.One of the stories centers on the life of an ordinary woman Carla, who lives in a small Canadian town with her husband Clark.The story slowly forms a picture of Carla, trapped in 11 a bad marriage, her unhappiness building into desperation until she decides to flee.The story of Carla is a story of the power and betrayals of love.It is about lost children and lost chances that we can all find in life.There is pain beneath the surface, like a needle in the heart.
Since she published her first collection of short stories in 1968, Munro has won many awards, with the Nobel Prize being her biggest honor.On Oct 10th, 2013, the Nobel Prize committee named Munro the “master of the contemporary short story”.

Science has a lot of uses.It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up.Indeed science is so good at what it does that there’s always a temptation (诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful.David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.
Brooks gained fame for several books.His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books.It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics.The book focuses on big questions: What has science revealed about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others aren’t?
To answer these questions, Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines.Considering this, you might expect the book to be a dry recitation (背诵) of facts.But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox (非常规的), and perhaps unfortunate way.Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the reader’s attention.So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction.Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.
On the whole, Brooksstory is acceptable if uninspired.As one would expect, his writing is mostly clear and, to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest.I enjoyed, for instance,the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own.While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere.These problems partly involve Brooksattempt to translate his tale into science.
56.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? (No more than 10 words)
57.Why does Brooks use a story to introduce scientific theories? (No more than 15 words)
58.According to The Social Animal, how can we learn about the science of child development? (No more than 10
words)
59.Please explain the underlined word “weighty” in English.(No more than 1 word)
60.Do you like Brooksway of dealing with science in The Social Animal? Why? (No more than 20 words)
