A few years ago, my wife and I had a chance to live in New York for a year. I’ve always loved jogging, so I was really happy when I found the apartment we lived in was next to the Central Park. I could go for a run before I went to work every morning.
Because a lot of people had told me to be careful of robbers (抢劫者) in the park, I didn’t usually take anything with me. How could they rob me if I didn’t have anything But one morning my wife asked me to buy some bread on the way home, so I put a $10 bill in my back pocket.
While I was running through the park, another jogger ran into me. He apologized and continued running. I thought it was kind of strange, so I checked my pocket and found that the money was missing. I immediately started to run after the jogger. I finally caught up and took him by the arm. I started shouting and demanding that he should give me the $10 bill. This seemed to frighten him, and he quickly put his hand in his pocket and gave me the money. Then he ran away as fast as he could.
I bought the bread and went home. As soon as I got home, I began to tell my wife my story. “You won't believe what happened to me,” I started. She immediately stopped me, “1 know. You left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.”

C. It was not fit for morning jogging.
D. It served delicious and cheap bread.

C. Careful. D. Brave.
8. What's the main idea of the text

As an important part of our everyday lives, music is increasingly being used in medical treatment. Besides proving very useful in cancer treatment, managing long-term pain and even helping the brain recover after a stroke, researchers have been making great progress in using music to help patients with dementia (失智症). It reduces patients’ anxiety or stress, lifts their spirits, and improves their performance at work.
So why does music appear to have such a powerful effect on people with dementia About ten years ago, researchers discovered that when people listened to music, many areas of the brain took part in processing it. Research has also shown music might help the brain and its connections grow strong again. It is believed that music could help people with dementia by fixing or strengthening damaged neural (神经的) connections and cells.
It’s not just any music that has a great effect on the brain, though. Familiar and favourite music has been shown to have the biggest influence on the way we feel, and is closely connected with memory and emotions. This is because listening to our favourite songs helps to produce feel-good hormones (荷尔蒙) that give us a sense of pleasure. During and after listening to favourite music, people with dementia experienced less pain and anxiety, and their general feelings improved.
Other researchers have even begun testing the effects of music training programs to support cognition (认知) for people with dementia. Results have been promising so far, with adults in the study showing improved conditions, compared to those who took part in just physical exercise.
So, music is likely to continue to be a useful medical treatment for people with dementia. But based on what we know so far, it’s important that it comes from the patient’s own music collection and is used together with other medical treatments such as taking medicine.
9. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage
A. By presenting facts. B. By raising questions.
C. By explaining reasons. D. By giving predictions.
10. What may familiar and favourite music contribute to people with dementia
A. It reduces emotional stress. B. It advances creative thinking.
C. It enriches work experience. D. It develops learning strategies.
11. What does the underlined word “promising” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Changeable. B. Confusing. C. Hopeful. D. Normal.
12. Where is the text most probably taken from
A A course plan. B. An art brochure.
C. A medical textbook. D. A science magazine.

【36题详解】
考查连词。句意:只需点击一下鼠标或触碰一下屏幕按键,我们几乎就能查到所有想了解的内容。空处为连词形式,根据句意可知,空前“the click of a mouse”和空后“the touch of a button”之间为选择关系,表“或者”,用并列连词“or”连接。故填or。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了网购作为一种购物方式正改变我们的生活,但也有其优势和弊端。
【43题详解】
考查句子结构。分析句子可知,本句是简单的主谓宾结构,主语是you“你”,receive“收到”为谓语动词,it“它”是宾语,句中的Then“然后”,a few days later by post“几天后”,by post“通过邮寄”都是修饰成分,作状语,故本句可翻译为:然后几天后你会通过邮寄收到它。
44题详解】
考查动词时态、介词短语和名词。表示“其次”应用second;表示“实体店”应理解为“在实体店里”,应用in physical stores,在句中做地点状语;表示“购物”应用shopping作主语,不可数名词;表示“通常”应用副词usually作状语;表示“花费很多时间”应用take a lot of time,在此处应用一般现在时,故为takes a lot of time。故翻译为Second, shopping in physical stores usually takes a lot of time.
【45题详解】
考查句子结构。分析句子可知,本句是个简单主谓宾结构,主语是You“你”,can also compare“你也可以比较”是情态动词加动词原形构成的复合谓语,the prices of the same product“同一产品的价格”是名词作宾语,and“以及”和or“或者”是并列连词,连接并列谓语,spend a lot“花很多钱”和save money“省钱”与compare是并列关系。故本句可翻译为:你也可以比较同一产品的价格,花很多钱,或者省钱。
【46题详解】
考查句子结构。分析句子可知,本句是because引导的原因状语从句,主句部分为They don’t like shopping on the Internet,其中They“他们”是主语,don’t like“不喜欢”是谓语,shopping“购物”是宾语,on the Internet“在网上”作状语,故主句部分意为“他们不喜欢在网上购物”;而从句部分为because they can’t see the product or try the clothes on,句中的because“因为”为连词引导原因状语从句,they“他们”是从句的主语,can’t see“看不到”为谓语,the product“产品”是宾语,or“或者”为并列连词连接两个谓语动词,try the clothes on“试穿衣服”与前面的see是并列关系,故从句部分意为“因为他们看不到产品也不能试穿衣服”,故整句可翻译为:他们不喜欢在网上购物,因为他们看不到产品也不能试穿衣服。
【47题详解】
考查动词时态和定语从句。表示“网上购物”应用online shopping作主语,不可数名词作主语,谓语应用单数形式;表示“正在改变”应用is changing,此处用现在进行时表示正在发生的事;表示“方式”应用the way作宾语;表示“我们的生活”此处可用定语从句修饰先行词the way,故为we live。故翻译为:Online shopping is changing the way we live.
