3、 the following passage.Shoppers in the UK are spending less money on toilet paper to save money,research has shown.Penny-pinching(小气的)UK consumers choose cheaper products from discounters such as Aldi and Lidl rather than luxury alternatives.This has wiped 6%off the value of the soft tissue paper ma

5、 UK population and a subsequent rise in the number of households,sales of toilet paper fell by 2%,with the average household reducing their toilet roll spending from 43 in 2014 to 41 in 2015.Overall,almost three in five people say they try to limit their usage of paper including facial tissue and ki
6、tchen rollto save money.“Strength,softness and thickness remain the leading indicators of toilet paper quality,with just a small proportion of consumers preferring more luxurious alternatives,such as those with flower patterns or perfume,said Mintel analyst Jack Duckett.“These extra features are dee
7、med unnecessary by the majority of shoppers,which probably reflects how these types of products are typically more expensive than regular toilet paper,even when on special offer.”While consumers are spending less on toilet paper,they remain fussy in theory at least when it comes to paper quality.Top
8、 of Britons,toilet paper wish list is softness(57%)followed by strength(45%)and thickness(36%).One in 10 buyers rank toilet rolls made from recycled paper among their top considerations,highlighting how overall the environment is much less of a consideration for shoppers than product quality.In a ch

14、owing passage.“One of the reasons I find this topic very interesting is because my mom was a smoker when I was younger,”says Lindson-Hawley,who studies tobacco and health at the University of Oxford.By studying about 700 adult smokers,she found out that her mom quit the right wayby stopping abruptly
15、 and completely.In her study,participants were randomly(随机地)assigned to two groups.One had to quit abruptly on a given day,going from about a pack a day to zero.The other cut down gradually over the course of two weeks.People in both groups used nicotine(尼古丁)patches before they quit,in addition to a
16、 second form of nicotine replacement,like gum or spray.They also had talk therapy with a nurse before and after quit day.Six months out,more people who had quit abruptly had stuck with itmore than one-fifth of them,compared to about one-seventh in the other group.Although these numbers appear low,it
17、 is much higher than if people try without support.And the quit rates were particularly convincing given that before the study started,most of the people had said theyd rather cut down gradually before quitting.“If youre training for a marathon,you wouldnt expect to turn up and just be able to run i
18、t.And I think people see that for smoking as well.They think,“Well,if I gradually reduce,its like practice,”says Lindson-Hawley.But that wasnt the case.Instead of giving people practice,the gradual reduction likely gave them cravings(痛)and withdrawal symptoms before they even reached quit day,which
19、could be why fewer people in that group actually made it to that point.“Regardless of your stated preference,if youre ready to quit,quitting abruptly is more effective,”says Dr.Gabriela Ferreira.“When you can quote a specific number like a fifth of the patients were able to quit,thats compelling.It
20、gives them the encouragement,I think,to really go for it,”Ferreira says.People rarely manage to quit the first time they try.But at least,she says,they can maximize the odds of success.6.What does Lindson-Hawley say about her mother?A.She quit smoking with her daughters help.课程名称课程名称 英语英语 考试日期考试日期 年

24、hey are simply unable to make it.C.They show fewer withdrawal symptoms.D.They feel much less pain in the process.Passage 3 Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Most of us grow up taking certain things for granted.We tend to assume that experts and religious leaders tell us“the truth
25、”.We tend to believe that things advertised on television or in newspapers cant be bad for us.However,encouragement of critical thinking in students is one of the goals of most colleges and universities.Few professors requires students to share the professors own beliefs.In general,professors are mo
26、re concerned that students learn to question and critically examine the arguments of others,including some of their own beliefs or values.This done not mean that professors insist that you change your beliefs,either.It does mean,however,professors will usually ask you to support the views you expres
27、s in class or in your writing.If your premises(前提)are shaky,or if your arguments are not logical,professors personally point out the false reasoning in your arguments.Most professors want you to learn to recognize the premises of your arguments,to examine whether you really accept these premises,and
28、 to understand whether or not you draw logical conclusions.Put it this way.Professors dont tell you what to think;they try to teach you how to think.On the other hand,if you intend to disagree with your professors in class,you should be prepared to offer a strong argument in support of your ideas.Ar
29、gument just for the sake of arguing usually does not promote a critical examination of ideas.Many professors interpret it as rudeness.11.In the first paragraph,the writer tries to tell us that people .A.easily accept certain things without a second thought B.grow up through learning certain things i
30、n life C.are forming their views during their growth D.have strong beliefs in authorities while getting old 12.Nowadays,most colleges and universities encourage students to .A.criticize others B.share professors beliefs C.give their own ideas D.change their own beliefs 13.The word“shaky”(line 1,para
31、.3)most probably means”.A.creative B.firm C.false D.weak 14.To help students develop their critical thinking,professors mainly teach them .A.choice of their premises B.the way to think independently C.skills of drawing conclusions D.different kinds of argument 15.According to the writer,the right wa
32、y to argue is to .A.argue mainly for the sake of arguing B.prove it with a good conclusion C.support your idea with sound reasoning D.examine others ideas critically Passage 4 Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.In spring,chickens start laying again,bringing a welcome source of pro
33、tein at winters end.So its no surprise that cultures around the world celebrate spring by honoring the egg.Some traditions are simple,like the red eggs that get baked into Greek Easter breads.Others elevate the egg into a fancy art,like the heavily jewel-covered“eggs”that were favored by the Russian
34、s starting in the 19th century.One ancient form of egg art comes to us from Ukraine.For centuries,Ukrainians have been drawing complicated patterns on eggs.Contemporary artists have followed this tradition to create eggs that speak to the anxieties of our age:Life is precious,and delicate.Eggs are,t
35、oo.“Theres something about their delicate nature that appeals to me,”says New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast.Several years ago,she became interested in eggs and learned the traditional Ukrainian technique to draw her very modem characters.“Ive broken eggs at every stage of the process-from the very beg
36、inning to the very,very end.”But theres an appeal in that vulnerability.“Theres part of this sickening horror of knowing youre walking on the edge with this,that I kind of like,knowing that it could all fall apart at any second.”Chasts designs,such as a worried man alone in a tiny rowboat,reflect th
37、at delicateness.Traditional Ukrainian decorated eggs also spoke to those fears.The elaborate patterns were believed to offer protection against evil.“Theres an ancient legend that as long as these eggs are made,evil will not prevail in the world,”says Joan Brander,a Canadian egg-painter who has been
38、 painting eggs for over 60 years,having learned the art from her Ukrainian relatives.The tradition,dating back to 300 B.C.,was later incorporated into the Christian church.The old symbols,however,still endure.A decorated egg with a bird on it,given to a young married couple,is a wish for children.A
39、decorated egg thrown into the field would be a wish for a good harvest.16.Why do people in many cultures prize the egg?A.It is a welcome sign of the coming of spring.B.It is their major source of protein in winter.C.It can easily be made into a work of art.D.It can bring wealth and honor to them.17.

44、nto each of the numbered blank.There are two extra choices,which do not fit in any of the gaps.Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries.21 In general,they can expect to live six or seven years more than men.One reason for this is biological.One important biological
45、 factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women.22 Between the ages of about 12 and 50,women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力).These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow.In fact,women are less likely to have hig
46、h blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.23 They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections.This means that women generally get sick less often and less seriously than men.The common cold is a good example:women,on average,get fewer colds than men.24 Scientists are still not e
