AWe’ve been running for three days. Appointments, evening activities and athletic events. Now we’ve just returned from a field trip and there’s cooking to do for an event tonight.I put on one of my husband’s T-shirts and a pair of sweatpants and start to work. I decide to ignore the table littered with books and coffee cups, the dishes that need washing and the floor that needs good cleaning. I’ll deal with the whole mess when I finish the cooking.Suddenly I hear a knock at the door. “Hello,” calls a sunny voice.I look through the window and a beautiful friend waves her hand out there. She’s dressed from work and looks pletely together , too together for this kind of mess. But she es in. I cringe (畏缩) for the condition of my home, for the way I look and for the vulnerability of being a straight-up mess.But to my surprise, my friend gives me a hug. And as I tidy the messy house, my friend and I chat freely and happily. As we chat, I find that I’m anything but ashamed.Suddenly I realize that she’s looking at my heart, not my house. I can be real-life vulnerable with this friend because the friendship is true, and true friendships are not woven with judgment and criticism but with love. Standing there, relaxed and warmed from the inside, I’m thankful that I’m enjoying safe vulnerability, and that regardless of my mess, Iam loved by my friend.1. What’s the author about to do when her friend es?A. To go to work.B. To read a book for relaxation.C. To do some washing and cleaning.D. To prepare food for an evening event.2. What can we learn about the author’s friend?A. She es only to be shocked at the messy house.B. She es well-dressed and behaves very well.C. She es to the author’s help.D. She es for an appointment with the author.3. After chatting with her friend, the author feels _______.A. satisfied with her present situationB. encouraged to be a together personC. delighted to have known such a friendD. ashamed to have shown her vulnerability to her friendBRebecca Sharrock has a rare condition, which means she can remember all the events she has experienced. The events are so vivid as if they happened just moments ago. Rebecca says that she can remember every single detail of her life.But for Rebecca, her vivid memories often bee a reality. “When I relive memories, the emotions recur. So if it’s something from when I was younger, it’s like my mind is an adult but my emotions are at the age that I wasthen.”Rebecca said. “I also re-experience pain. For example, I remember falling over when I was three and hurting my left knee. Talking about it now, I’m getting painful in my left knee cap.”However, there are times when Rebecca’s memories prove to be too overwhelming requiring her to learn relaxation and mindfulness techniques to deal with. “At school, it is a barrier. I’m not very quick at processing things, so there is always so much going through my mind.” Rebecca said. “At night, I have to sleep with the radio on and a soft light. If it’s too dark or quiet, my mind just recalls all these memories and I can’t sleep.”In addition, Rebecca has no control over whether the memories she recalls will be positive or negative --- recalling painful experiences with such vividness that she has suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder (创后伤紧张症). Rebecca said, “Recently, I went back to my old days for my sister’s graduation. Being in that building again brought all those memories flooding back. I burst into tears and had to leave.”Rebecca and her mother, Mrs. Barnes got in touch with the University of California. It was there that Rebecca knew she had Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory(HSAM). “Finding out about HSAM has been such a positive experience. Now Rebecca has been more positive and able to do things independently.” Mrs. Barnes said.4. What does HSAM bring to Rebecca?A. She could have a clear mind about herself.B. She could recall everything in her life.C. She could predict the future well.D. She could avoid pains in advance.5. Why does Rebecca suffer from her memory?A. Because it does damage to her brain.B. Because it makes her stand out from others.C. Because it brings her too much stress.D. Because it causes painful emotions sometimes.6. How is Rebecca’s life according to her mother?A. She lives a happy life with her mother.B. She still needs to struggle against HSAM for years.C. Her life improves gradually with days going by.D. Her life is totally changed after understanding HSAM.CSearch engines like Google make people think they are smarter than they actually are because they have the world’s knowledge at their fingertips, psychologists at Yale University have found. Surfing the Internet for information gives people a widely inaccurate view of their own intelligence and could lead to over-confidence when making decisions, experts warn.Experiments found that people who had searched on the Internet believed they were far more knowledgeable about a subject than those who had learned by normal routes, such as reading a book. “The Internet is such a powerful environment, where you can enter any question, and you can easily get the world’s knowledge at your fingertips.” said Mattew Fisher, a psychology professor at Yale University. “But it bees easier to confuse your ownknowledge with this source. When people are truly on their own, they would easily get more wrong answers.”More than 1,000 students took part in a range of experiments aimed at studying the psychological impact of searching on the Internet. In one test, the Internet group were given a website link which gave the answer to the question “how does a zip work”while a control group were given a print-out of the same information. When the two groups were tested later on an unrelated question --- “why are cloudy nights warmer?”the group who had searched online believed they were more knowledgeable even though they were not allowed to look up the correct answer.“We also believe that the wrong sense of personal knowledge also could be perilous in some areas when people make decisions; in case where decisions have great influence such as important business trade, it may cause millions of losses and even bankruptcy of a pany.”Mr. Fisher added.The Internet is a big benefit in many ways, but there may be some disadvantages that aren’t immediately obvious and this may be one of them. “Right personal knowledge is difficult to achieve, and the Internet may be making that task even harder.”7. According to Matthew Fisher, ________.A. people should keep away from the InternetB. the Internet should concentrate on expertiseC. the Internet has more benefits than disadvantagesD. people shouldn’t rely too much on the Internet8. Researchers did the experiment through the way of ______.A. discussionB. assumption（猜测）C. observationD. parison9. The underlined word “perilous” most probably means _______.A. ridiculousB. dangerousC. beneficialD. normal10. What is the main idea of the passage?A. People widely use the Internet.B. The Internet has many advantages.C. The Internet makes people over-confident.D. More experiments have been done on the Internet.DThere are so many things we do in our daily lives that have bee athe car when you drive is a habit. Have you ever tried to change the way you do something, after you’ve done it in a certain way for so long? It’s easy to do as long as you think about it. The minute your mind drifts toIt’s a way of doing things that has bee routine or monplace. To change an existing habit or form a new one can be a tedious (单调乏味的) task.Let’s pick something fairly easy to start with, like spending 15 minutes in the morning reading the Bible. If you want to turn somethinginto a habit that you do every day, you have to WANT to do it. 18 Make a firm decision to do this on a daily basis.Imprint(铭刻) it in your mind. Write several notes to yourself and put them in places where you will see them. By the alarm clock, on the bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator door, in your briefcase, and under your car keys are good places to start.After the newness wears off, then you will have to remind yourself, "Hey, I forgot to...". Keep using the notes if you have to. 19 Some people say it will take over a month to solidify (变得稳固) it and make it something you will do without having to think about it. I tend to agree with the last statement. Two to three weeks will help you to remember, but thirty days or more will make it a part of your everyday routine. 20A. What is a "habit" anyway?B. Is doing things in an old way good?C. Brushing your teeth is a habit.D. Forming a bad habit is easy.E. It takes 16 to 21 times of repeating a task to make it a habit.F. If you don’t, you will find a way to do everything but that.G. That’s something you won’t necessarily have to think about before you do it — habit.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，After shopping I got into my car.
