magazine.C.A school website.D.An entertainment guide.BSometimes the simple act of being outside every day can be good to you.We often forgetabout what nature has to offer by staying inside too much.Going outside, you'll probably beexposed to numerous sensations.You might hear the crinkle of leaves under your fet,concentrate on how the breeze cools your skin,and feel the sun offering its natural warmth.Time outside also reminds you how you share your time on Earth with countlesscreatures and that you must live in harmony with them.The more often you encounteranimals in their natural habitats, the easier it will be to recall why it's so important to treat theoutdoors with respect.After coming in contact with a squirrel,for example,you may beespecially careful to throw your trash away in the nearest garbage can in case of someharmful leftover food.That's because you've just been reminded that you're not the onlyliving thing to come in contact with what's now rubbish.Spending too much time indoors may cause us to become too isolated from others,especially if we use up much time in front of computer screens.It seems that a computerconnected to the Internet allows you to share parts of your world with other people,butactually it can also make us feel more disconnected from others for lack of face-to-facecommunication.The time outside with a loved one allows you to take part in a sharedexperience.For instance,you can call attention to a type of flower that's just started bloomingand allow your companions to marvel at its beauty.That's a similar shared experience.Anyhow,it is not as hard as you might imagine.You may just decide to start an outdoorpractice that takes you outside for a certain amount of time, preferably every day.The last 15minutes of your lunch break strolling outside with a friend and some after-dinner family timediscussing your days can be good options.Get off the computer and head outside!You'll feelhow your choice pays off.24.According to paragraph 1,going outside offers an opportunity for people to____________.A.enjoy sensory experienceB.bring back distant memoriesC.achieve better concentrationD.participate in simple activities25.Why does the author mention a squirrel in paragraph 2?A.To present the means of feeding animals.B.To show the consequence of littering trash.C.To stress the significance of experiencing nature.D.To discuss the possibility of encountering wildlife.26.According to the passage,those spending most time indoors may suffer from ______________.A.attention disorderB.loneliness attackC.Internet addictionD.communication barrier27.Which of the following is the best title?A.Time Outside Involves A Shared ExperienceB.Too Much Time Indoors Does Great HarmC.Going Outdoors Gives A Different PerspectiveD.A Daily Exposure to Nature Makes a DifferenceCTwo women in their 50s stand beholding in front of Guanyin of the South China Sea,anancient Chinese sculpture in the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City,Missouri.Over the past 20 years,they have been visiting the museum,describing the "mother Buddha"as "beautiful and tranquil,a symbol of religious traditions in China".Measuring 2.4 metershigh,1.68 meters wide and 1.1 meters thick,the larger-than-life sculpture was carved fromthe trunk of a single poplar tree,which has created a sense of calm and warmth in the hall.Since its launch in 1933,the museum has been actively collecting,preserving,studyingand exhibiting works of Chinese art,ranging from ceramics to furniture,and from paintings tosculptures.And its Chinese art collection contains masterpieces in various historical stages.An exhibition on the theme of Lively Creatures-Animals in Chinese Art was held at themuseum,displaying tens of Chinese ancient paintings with images of animals in many artforms.The creatures on the paintings represented celebration,personal messages,and evenpolitical and religious agendas.Organizers of the exhibition produced a set of cards,with images of animals on one sideand their cultural meanings in Chinese artistic tradition on the other.The cards are providedfor visitors for free."I find it very interesting,and the way that the things are drawn is very cool,"says17-year-old high school student Camden Lombard after visiting the exhibition."I want to goto China someday to find more,"he adds."It's kind of eye-opening and we're bringing the world together,"says Makar,aneducator with the school outreach and education programs of the museum.“There are somany similarities as well as beautiful differences,and we are just trying to understand andappreciate one another.""We're in a moment when it's sometimes hard to look outside of your own personalviewpoints,"says Howard,manager of volunteer engagement at the museum."I think havingaccess to seeing what other cultures have created,what they valued and appreciated,and whatwas important to them,is really important in building that understanding about all the peoplewe share this planet with."28.The two women kept visiting the Nelson-Atkins Museum for ____________.A.the grand appearance of the exhibition hallB.their affection for Chinese religious traditionsC.the great size of the ancient Chinese sculptureD.their curiosity about the delicate artistic carving29.What can we learn about the exhibition Lively Creatures?A.The organizers gained a handsome profit.B.The cards reflected multinational cultures.C.The visitors had rich travel experiences in China.D.The paintings displayed the charm of Chinese culture.30.How does Makar describe the visit to the museum?A.Instructive and romantic.B.Imaginary and fascinating.C.Informative and multicultural.D.Educational and entertaining.31.What's the purpose of setting up the museum according to Howard?A.To bridge different cultures.B.To popularize religious symbols.C.To exchange personal viewpoints.D.To demonstrate Chinese paintings.DWhen Thomas Edison hit a wall with his inventions,he would nap in an armchair whileholding a steel ball.As he started to fall asleep and his muscles relaxed,the ball would strikethe floor,waking him with insights into his problems.Or so the story goes.Thomas Edison was somewhat right.Now,more than 100 years later,scientists haverepeated the trick in a lab,revealing that the famous inventor was on to something.Peoplefollowing his recipe tripled their chances of solving a math problem.The trick was to wakeup in the transition between sleep and wakefulness,just before deep sleep.In this transitionalperiod,we are not quite awake,but also not deeply asleep.It can be as short as a minute andoccurs right when we start to doze off.Researchers recruited more than 100 easy sleepers,each of whom was given a math testwith a hidden rule for the answer.By recording brain activity,they found that those whonapped and were interrupted during the first phase of sleep were three times better at findingthe hidden key to the problem than those who remained awake.The creative effect happened even for people who spent just 15 seconds in the first sleepstage.But the trick didn't work for those who reached later stages of sleep."Our findingssuggest there is a creative sweet spot during sleep onset,"says author Delphine Oudiette,asleep researcher at the Paris Brain Institute."It is a small window which can disappear if youwake up too early or sleep too deep."The study team also identified a brain activity pattern linked to the creativity-boostingphase:moderate levels of brain waves at a slow frequency known as alpha,associated withrelaxation,and low levels of delta waves,a hallmark of deep sleep.Oudiette says researcherscan now focus on this brain signature when investigating the neural mechanisms(神經(jīng)機(jī)制)of creative problem-solving.The team has already planned an experiment to help peoplereach a creative zone by monitoring their brain waves in real time."Edison was great",Oudiette says,"and now we have a lot more to explore."32.What does the underlined phrase "was on to something"in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Discovered the truth.B.Was absorbed in math puzzles.C.Started the experiment.D.Was engaged in laboratory work.33.According to the research, the trick of promoting creativity lies in ____________.A.gaining adequate deep sleepB.discovering the hidden rules of problemsC.following Edison's life styleD.waking up right after nodding off to sleep34.Why did the researchers record brain activity of the sleepers?A.To evaluate their sleep efficiency.B.To measure their amount of sleep.C.To assess their levels of intelligence.D.To compare their creative thinking abilities.35.What is paragraph 5 mainly about?A.Supporting evidence for the research results.B.Potential application of the research findingsC.A further explanation of the research methods.D.A reasonable doubt about the research process.第二節(jié)(共5小題:每小題2.5分,滿分12.5分)閱讀下面短文,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。You'll make new friends in each stage of your life.Some of them will come and

clouds drifted by high above in the sky.Not faraway,the huge new tower blocks lined the road.The faint sound of cars was dimly heard.His mother was chopping tomatoes for their dinner as usual.Suddenly she said,"Youknow,the thing I miss most is cooking a really hot salsa(辣番茄醬),with fresh peppersstraight from the garden.” She sighed."That's what I miss most about Merida."Tomas looked up from his book in surprise.His mother had never talked like this abouttheir old life before.He studied her now.She looked a little sad,but then she smiled at himand swept the pile of chopped tomatoes into the cooking pot.“But I’ve already learned a lot about this new country,Tomas,"she said."For a start,I've learned that there's more than one way to make a salsa!"She waved a packet of chilispice powder at him,and they both laughed.Watching his mother busy in the kitchen preparing dinner,Tomas thought about theinsight his mother had given him into her feelings,and he realized that he felt the same wayabout leaving.Sure,it had been great for his father to get this good job,but it had also been hard.Tomas missed his old home-especially the sun and the beach.And his mother missedMerida,too.She had loved working in her market garden,selling the fresh vegetables that shehad grown herself and then coming home to cook up huge,tasty meals for her family.Tomas's stomach rumbled at the memories.He thought about how different things were for them now, living in this large,grayapartment block where there was no garden and no friends dropping by to share theirdelicious meals.He sighed.At least they were still able to speak regularly every night after dinner withhis grandmother back in Mexico over the
