We have learned t expect that trains will be punctual. After years f cnditining (習慣), mst f us have develped an unshakable faith in railway timetables. Ships may be delayed by strms; flights may be cancelled because f bad weather; but trains must be n time. Only an exceptinally heavy snwfall might temprarily dislcate railway services. It is all t easy t blame the railway authrities when smething des g wrng. The truth is that when mistakes ccur, they are mre likely t be urs than theirs.
After cnsulting my railway timetable, I nted with satisfactin that there was an express train t Westhaven. It went direct frm my lcal statin and the jurney lasted a mere hur and seventeen minutes. When I barded the train, I culd nt help nticing that a great many lcal peple gt n as well. At the time, this didn’t strike me as dd. I reflected that there must be a great many peple besides myself wh wished t take advantage f this excellent service. Neither was I surprised when the train stpped at Widley, a tiny statin a few miles alng the line. Even a mighty express train can be held up by signals. But when the train dawdled (慢吞吞地動) at statin after statin, I began t wnder. It suddenly dawned n me that this express was nt raring dwn the line at ninety miles an hur, but barely chugging (咔嚓咔嚓地響) alng at thirty. One hur and seventeen minutes passed and we had nt even cvered half the distance. I asked a passenger if this was the Westhaven Express, but he had nt even heard f it. I determined t ldge a cmplaint as sn as we arrived. Tw hurs later, I was talking angrily t the statin master at Westhaven. When he denied the train’s existence, I brrwed his cpy f the timetable. There was a nte f triumph (勝利) in my vice when I tld him that it was there in black and white. Glancing at it briefly, he tld me t lk again. A tiny asterisk (星號) cnducted me t a ftnte at the bttm f the page. It said: “This service has been suspended.”
4.What is mst peple’s faith in trains?

While many peple aren't getting enugh calcium, new research cautins that sme peple may have the ppsite prblem: They culd be getting t much. Americans spend mre than $1 billin a year n calcium supplements in hpes f delaying steprsis the brittle bne disease that cripples many elderly wmen and sme men. Yet recent studies link calcium supplements t a higher risk f heart attacks. Last mnth, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Frce issued a draft recmmendatin against taking calcium and vitamin D, saying there wasn't enugh evidence f benefit t justify the risk.
Fr generatins f Americans wh grew up encuraged t drink milk t maintain strng bnes, the reprts raised trubling questins: Is calcium nt s imprtant after all?! Are the supplements unsafe? And hw much is t much? “It's gtten very cnfusing but it desn't need t be,” says Ethel Siris, directr f the Tni Stabile Osteprsis Center in New Yrk. Hw much calcium peple need varies by age and gender.“Adults generally need 1,000 mg daily, rising t 1,200 mg fr wmen ver 50 and men ver 70, accrding t guidelines issued in 2010. Children need 1,300 mg daily during the peak grwing years f 9 t 18.”
Peple als need sufficient levels f vitamin D t absrb the calcium. The IOM recmmends 600 interactinal units a day fr mst adults, and 800 daily after age 70, althugh many physicians recmmend mre. It is difficult t take in that much vitamin D frm fd surces, s experts say many peple shuld take vitamin D in supplement frm.
Getting adequate calcium frm fd is easier. Fr example, 8 unces f milk r 6 unces f ygurt has 300 mg f calcium, and ne cup f spinach has 270 mg.
But studies linking calcium supplements t heart attack have made experts mre cautius f excess calcium than befre. A study f 24,000 Germans published in the jurnal Heart last mnth, fund that thse wh gt their calcium exclusively frm supplements were mre than twice as likely t have a heart attack as thse wh tk n supplements.
Exactly hw calcium supplements might cntribute t heart attacks baffles cardilgists. “Nbdy has assciated the calcium in yur bldstream with calcificatin in yur arteries," says Nieca Gldberg, medical directr f the Jan H. Tisch Center. Still, she says she nw urges patients get their recmmended calcium frm fd than frm supplements t avid pssible prblems.
Osteprsis experts als urge patients nt t take mre than the recmmended amunt f calcium. “Peple shuld definitely stp taking tw big calcium supplements a day,” says Dr. Dawsn-Hughes. Even if the risks remain unclear, taking mre than the bdy can absrb desn't benefit bnes, “s it's nt wrth any risk.” She adds.
8.Accrding t the new studies, taking much calcium might ________.
A.delay agingB.build muscles
C.cause heart prblemsD.cure bne diseases
9.What is Ethel Siris' pinin n taking calcium?
A.Taking calcium supplements is unsafe.
B.Adults need mre calcium than children.
C.Age and gender determine hw much calcium is needed.
D.It is safer t take calcium frm fd than frm supplements.
10.What des the underlined wrd "baffle" in Paragraph 6 mean?
A.InterestB.Amaze
C.FrightenD.Puzzle
11.What can we learn frm the passage?
A.Taking tw calcium supplements a day is gd fr health.
B.It might be wiser t take recmmended calcium frm fd.
C.It is easy fr peple t btain enugh Vitamin D frm fd.
D.The benefits f taking calcium supplements utweigh its risks.

The wrld’s clcks mark every passing secnd, minute and hur. But t humans, secnds f pain can feel like minutes, and hurs spent at a party can end in a blink.
The brain can stretch r squeeze the feeling f time fr many reasns, including pleasure, pain, fear and age. Althugh the science behind this “subjective time” is nt fully understd, sme research suggests that an additinal factr might influence the subjective length f yur life: yur incme.
Research already suggests that, n average, wealthy peple live lnger, bilgically. Nw, emerging wrk indicates that varied and nvel experiences culd create mre “time cdes (編碼)” in the human brain as it prcesses memry frmatin. This, in turn, culd mean that peple wh can affrd t enjy mre vacatins and hbbies, and wh have mre stimulating jbs, will recall having lived fr a lnger time n Earth.
“Even thugh time flies when yu’re having fun, when yu lk back n it, yu can remember much mre f this extended experience cmpared t a bring experience,” says Jrgen Sugar, a pstdctral student at the Nrwegian University f Science and Technlgy's Kavli Institute fr Systems Neurscience. He’s part f a team f scientists investigating these mental time cdes.
The idea that nvelty can affect the experience f time als seems t fit cultures that dn't measure time using clcks — many cultures rely instead n celestial (天空的), cultural and seasnal events t mark the flw f time. “Our experience f time des vary accrding t circumstances, and als accrding t the kind f rhythm f activity we engage in,” says Chris Sinha, a cgnitive (認知) scientist wrking with Hunan University wh has studied s called “event-based time” in Amaznian tribes and linguistic minrity grups in China.
But ther experts aren’t cnvinced. Accrding t Mnica Capri, an ecnmist with a backgrund in neur-ecnmies at Claremnt Graduate University, subjective time isn’t well understd scientifically. Even if higher-paid jbs can lead t mre new experiences, wealthy peple aren’t necessarily spending mney that way. A millinaire, fr instance, may spend mney n a fancy watch, but this isn’t likely t change their feeling f time the way a vacatin r even a lw-cst hike wuld, she says.
What’s mre, she says, there are many factrs t cnsider in hw the brain prcesses time. Fr instance, accrding t Adrian Bejan, a prfessr at Duke University, the nvelty f fun experiences an simply war ff.
Still, researchers frm many fields are eager t uncver the mysteries f memry and subjective time. Accrding t Sugar, understanding hw humans frm and recall memries can affect many aspects f sciety, such as law, educatin and healthcare — and perhaps can even aid ur understanding f urselves. “The human brain is the mst cmplex bilgical system we knw,” he says.
12.What d we knw abut “subjective time” frm the passage?
A.It has nthing t d with ne’s incme.
B.Its pace is influenced by a persn’s md.
C.It is a thing that is cmpletely understd.
D.It marks every passing secnd fr a persn.
13.Hw can incme influence a persn accrding t sme researchers?
A.Wealthy peple tend t engage mre in remembering things.
B.Wealthy peple may feel life is relatively lnger psychlgically.
C.Wealthy peple tend t have a better memry than pr peple.
D.Wealthy peple usually need mre time t prcess memry frmatin.
14.What is Mnica Capra’s pinin?
A.She is nt cnvinced that mney can extend subjective time,
B.She desn’t believe that wealthy peple can buy gd memries.
C.She thinks that the excitement f fun experiences can hardly wear ff.
D.She dubts whether higher-paid jbs can lead t mre new experiences.

A.Researchers are explring the mysteries f memry.
B.Many factrs can influence hw yu feel time.
C.Yur subjective time may depend n yur incme.

With all her big brthers and sisters ff t schl, ur farm became a lnely place fr urthree-year-ld daughter, Becky. She lnged fr playmates. We prmised t buy her a puppy but in the meantime, "pretend" puppies ppped up nearly every day.
I had just finished washing the lunch dishes when the dr slammed and Becky rushed in, cheeks flushed with excitement. "Mama!" she cried," Cme see my new dggy! I gave him water tw times already. He's s thirty!"
I sighed, anther f Becky's dgs.
"Please cme, Mama." She pulled my jeans, her brwn eyes begging, "He's crying—and he can't walk!" "Can't walk?" An unexpected change! All her previus imaginary dgs culd d amazing things such as balancing a ball n the end f its nse and dancing n a tightrpe. Why suddenly a dg that culdn't walk? "All right, hney," I said. By the time I tried t fllw her, Becky had already disappeared int the bushes.
"Where are yu?" I called.
"Over here by the ak stump(橡樹樁). Hurry, Mama!"
I parted the branches and raised my hand against the glare f the sun. A numbing chill (寒戰(zhàn)) gripped me.
There she was, sitting n her heels, cradled (抱著)in her lap was the unmistakable head f a wlf!
"Becky," My muth felt dry. "Dn't mve." I stepped clser. Pale-yellw eyes narrwed. Black lips tightened. Duble sets f tw-inch sharp teeth were expsed. Suddenly the wlf trembled. Its teeth clacked, and a painful cry rse frm its thrat.

【分析】這是一篇應用文。文章介紹了一款免費的視頻會議應用程序Jitsi。
1.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句“At the heart f Jitsi are Jitsi Videbridge and Jitsi Meet, which let yu have cnferences n the internet, while ther prjects in the cmmunity enable ther features such as audi, dial-in, recrding, and simulcasting.”(Jitsi的核心是Jitsi videbridge和Jitsi Meet,它們可以讓您在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上召開會議,而社區(qū)中的其他項目可以實現(xiàn)其他功能,如音頻、撥號、錄音和同步廣播。)可知,Jitsi的中心服務位于Jitsi Videbridge和Jitsi Meet。故選D。
2.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“A crazy gd, cmpletely free vide cnferencing slutin that anyne can use.”部分第一句“Jitsi is a favrite videcnferencing slutin fr anyne with privacy cncerns, jurnalists, fr example.”(對任何有隱私擔憂的人來說,例如記者,Jitsi是一個最受歡迎的視頻會議解決方案。)可知,Jitsi有助于解決視頻會議中的隱私問題。故選A。
3.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句“There are n extra payments t Jitsi, and the prject remains free thanks t 8x8 (a cmpany), which uses the technlgy in its wn prducts.”(Jitsi沒有額外的付款,由于8x8(一家公司)在自己的產(chǎn)品中使用了這項技術(shù),該項目仍然免費。)可知,Jitsi是一個完全免費的應用程序,因為8x8在自己的產(chǎn)品中使用了這項技術(shù)。故選B。
4.A 5.B 6.D 7.B
【分析】本文是一篇記敘文。敘述了大家對火車準時有不可動搖的新年,講述了因為自己的快車晚點之后對服務提出投訴后,發(fā)現(xiàn)是自己沒有看好火車時間表的故事。
4.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二三句“ After years f cnditining (習慣), mst f us have develped an unshakable faith in railway timetables. Ships may be delayed by strms; flights may be cancelled because f bad weather; but trains must be n time. (經(jīng)過多年的習慣,我們大多數(shù)人對鐵路時刻表產(chǎn)生了不可動搖的信念。船只可能因風暴而延誤;航班可能因天氣惡劣而取消;但是火車必須準時)”可知,大多數(shù)人對火車的信仰是他們很少在守時方面讓我們失望。故選A。
5.詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線句前一句“When I barded the train, I culd nt help nticing that a great many lcal peple gt n as well.(當我登上火車時,我禁不住注意到許多當?shù)厝艘采狭塑?”和后一句“I reflected that there must be a great many peple besides myself wh wished t take advantage f this excellent service.(我想,除了我自己之外,一定還有很多人希望利用這項出色的服務)”可推知,劃線句子說明了我一點也不驚訝。故選B。
6.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第五行句子“ I determined t ldge a cmplaint as sn as we arrived. Tw hurs later, I was talking angrily t the statin master at Westhaven.(我決定一到就提出投訴。兩小時后,我正憤怒地與威斯特海文的站長談話)”可知,這次經(jīng)歷是令作者生氣失望的。由此推知,最能描述作者的經(jīng)歷的是:失望。故選D。
7.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后三句“Glancing at it briefly, he tld me t lk again. A tiny asterisk (星號) cnducted me t a ftnte at the bttm f the page. It said: “This service has been suspended.”(他瞥了一眼,讓我再看一眼。一個小小的星號把我?guī)У巾撁娴撞康囊粋€腳注。上面寫著:“這項服務已經(jīng)暫停?!?”可知,作者沒有看清楚服務說明火車時間表,就默認為這次列車是特快列車。由此推知,作者乘錯了火車,該怪作者自己。故選B。
【點睛】閱讀理解解題步驟:首先對原文材料迅速瀏覽,掌握全文的主旨大意。因為閱讀理解題一般沒有標題,所以,速讀全文,抓住中心主旨很有必要,在速讀的過程中,應盡可能多地捕獲信息材料。
其次,細讀題材,各個擊破,掌握全文的大意之后,細細閱讀每篇材料后的問題,弄清每題要求后,帶著問題,再回到原文中去尋找、捕獲有關(guān)信息要善于抓住每段的主題句,閱讀時,要有較強的針對性,對于捕獲到的信息,要做認真分析,仔細推敲,理解透徹,只有這樣,針對題目要求,才能做到穩(wěn)、準。
8.C 9.C 10.D 11.B
【分析】這是一篇說明文。最近的研究表明,鈣補充劑與心臟病發(fā)作的高風險有關(guān)。專家們建議人們從食物中攝取推薦的鈣,而不是從補充劑中,以避免可能出現(xiàn)的問題。
8.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第三句“Yet recent studies link calcium supplements t a higher risk f heart attacks.”(然而,最近的研究表明,鈣補充劑與心臟病發(fā)作的高風險有關(guān)。)可知,根據(jù)新的研究,攝入過多的鈣可能會導致心臟問題。故選C。
9.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第五句“Hw much calcium peple need varies by age and gender.”(人的鈣需求量因年齡和性別而異。)可知,Ethel Siris認為年齡和性別決定了鈣的需求量。故選C。

11.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第六段最后一句“Still, she says she nw urges patients get their recmmended calcium frm fd than frm supplements t avid pssible prblems.”(盡管如此,她說她現(xiàn)在還是敦促患者從食物中攝取推薦的鈣,而不是從補充劑中,以避免可能出現(xiàn)的問題。)可知,從食物中攝取推薦的鈣可能更明智。故選B。

Althugh the science behind this “subjective time” is nt fully understd, sme research suggests that an additinal factr might influence the subjective length f yur life: yur incme.(大腦會因為許多原因而延長或擠壓時間的感覺,包括快樂、痛苦、恐懼和年齡。雖然這種“主觀時間”背后的科學原理還沒有被完全理解,但一些研究表明,還有一個額外的因素可能會影響你的主觀壽命:你的收入)”可知,“主觀時間”的節(jié)奏受人的情緒影響。故選B項。
13.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“Research already suggests that, n average, wealthy peple live lnger, bilgically.

14.推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段“A millinaire fr instance may spend mney n a fancy watch, but this isn't likely t change their feeling f time the way a vacatin r even a lw-cst hike wuld.(例如,百萬富翁可能會花錢買一塊漂亮的手表,但這不太可能像度假甚至是一次低成本的徒步旅行那樣改變他們對時間的感覺)”可知,Mnica Capra不相信有錢人可以買到美好的回憶。故選B項。
15.主旨大意題。通讀全文以及文章最后一段“Still researchers frm many, fields are eager t uncver the mysteries f memry and subjective time.(盡管如此,許多領(lǐng)域的研究人員仍渴望揭開記憶和主觀時間的奧秘)”可知,這篇文章主要介紹的是研究人員正在探索記憶的奧秘。故選A項。

5.根據(jù)上文“Alternatively, ffer yur cat a pt f clean cat grass t chew, especially indr cats.”(或者,給你的貓一罐干凈的貓草來咀嚼,尤其是室內(nèi)的貓。)可知,要給你的貓準備一些貓草來咀嚼,D選項“This is available frm mst plant gardens.”(大多數(shù)植物園都有這種植物。)具體介紹了貓草獲取的途徑,承接上文,故選D。
