12、er the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1Mandy Harvey is a 29-year-old singer from the American state of Florida. She suffers from connective tissue disorder. She lost most of her ability to hear when she was 18. As a child an
13、d during her teenage years, Harvey was a singer. But she stopped singing for a time after she went deaf.But she decided to start singing again after she learned how to feel a songs beat through the wooden floor of a stage or theater. She uses visual aids to make sure her musical instruments are tune
14、d correctly and she is singing in the correct pitch (音 高).Harvey is now a professional singer. But until Tuesday night, not many people in the United States had heard of her. Of course that changed when she appeared on the television show Americas Got Talent. The show has four judges who watch peopl
15、e perform and decide if they should continue in the competition.Mandy Harvey appeared on stage with a small instrument: a ukulele. A sign language interpreter stood next to the judges. One of the judges, Simon Cowell, asked Harvey about the condition that caused her to go deaf. Then she got ready to
16、 perform. She sang a piece she wrote, called “Try. Harvey said: After I lost my hearing, I gave up. But I want to do more with my life than just give up. Cowell said: “Good fbr you,“ and clapped his hands loudly.As she was singing, one camera cut away to capture images of people in the theater. Many
17、 were seen crying. At one point, everyone stood up and cheered. By Wednesday afternoon, a video of Harveys performance had been played 46 million times. Shortly after she finished singing, Cowell smiled, and said “Mandy, I dont think youre going to need a translator for this. And he reached over and
18、 hit a button that released golden confetti （五彩纸屑）into the air. That meant Harvey automatically moved on to the final part of the talent competition.1、How does Mandy Harvey sing with her musical instruments as a deaf person?A. By senses of touch. B. By her instrument.C. By experience. D. By sight.2、
19、What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Harvey is not well-known.B. Harvey is a professional singer.C , Harvey is popular with Americans.D. Harvey is lucky with her childhood.3、What do you know about topic of her song Try”?A. Showing her hard situation.B , Expressing her pers

21、d, if head lice （头虱）left their host, he became sick and feverish. Therefore, sick people had lice put in their hair intentionally. There was a method in their madness： As soon as the lice had settled in again, the patient improved. The story explains the confusion of cause and effect. If the lice le
22、ave the sick host, it is because he has a fever and they simply get hot feet, and when the fever breaks, they return. Such false causality段因果关系）misleads us every day.Consider the headline: Fact: Women Who Use Shampoo XYZ Every Day Have Stronger Hair. It says very little least of all, that the shampo
23、o makes your hair stronger. It might simply be the other way round: women with strong hair tend to use Shampoo XYZ and perhaps thats because it says especially for thick hair on the bottle.Another example: Scientists found that long periods in the hospital did harm to patients. But, clearly, patient
24、s who are dismissed immediately are healthier than those who must stay on for treatment.Recently I read that students get better grades at school if their homes contain many books. This study was surely a shot in the arm for booksellers, but it was also false causality. This simple truth is that edu
25、cated parents tend to value their childrens education more than uneducated ones do, and they often have more books at home. In short, a dust-covered copy War and Peace alone isnt going to influence anyones grades; what counts is parents* education levels, as well as their genes.There was also the su
26、pposed relationship between the birth rate and the numbers of stork （鹳）pairs in Germany. Both were in decline, and if you plot （描绘）them on a graph （曲线图），the two lines of development from 1965 to 1987 appeared almost the same. Does this mean the storks actually bring babies? Obviously not. This was a
27、 purely accidental connection.In conclusion: Connection is not causality. Take a closer look at linked events: Sometimes what is presented as the cause turns out to be the effect, or just the other way round, and sometimes there is no link at all - just like with storks and babies. 1、According to th
28、e first paragraph, people in some islands north of Scotland.A , found a way to get rid of head liceB. used an effective method to keep fitC made head lice a part of their lifeD. died due to infections with head lice2、Which is an example of false causality?A. Women with strong hair tend to use a cert
29、ain shampoo.B. The birth rate and the stork population are connected.C. Longer periods in the hospital benefit patients.D. Lice can make a person sick and feverish.3、The underlined phrase a shot in the arm in Paragraph 4 means.A. painB. defeatC. guidanceD. encouragement4、 According to the author, st
30、udents get better grades probably because.A. their homes are full of booksB , they have read War and PeaceC. their educated parents value educationD. their parents are successful booksellers5、We can draw the conclusion from the passage that.A. connection arc pure accidentsB. cause and effect are int
31、erdependentC connections are mostly cause and effectD. linked events may turn out to be unrelatedText 3Recently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina. We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer psychological（心理的）first aid“ and I was struck by the
32、 simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitude from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadnt really done anything yet.I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friends mothe
33、r passed away unexpectedly. I had received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didnt want to disturb this very personal period of sadness. I was tom about what to do. Another friend with me then said, “Just go. Just be there. I did, and I will never r
34、egret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS-related dying. He was not awake, and obviously unaware of others presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guita
35、rs and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are truly alone. It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.1、Why were the hurricane victi

40、nt to how we live our lives J Pradhan says.She says when she was a child she liked to eat and ate a lot. But there came a point where she lost interest in food.“One of the first things that people notice whenever they have a smell problem is that food doesnt taste right any more J says Beverly Cowar
41、t, a researcher. Thats because eating and smell go hand in hand. How food tastes often rely on what we smell. “When you lose your sense of smell, your whole sense of food flavors changed and reduced J Cowart says, “You can still taste the basic tastes. What you9re missing are the small distinctions.
42、“When I go out to eat I have often found that food is very tasteless to me. I never feel fbllj she says. I think a lot of us today like to pretend to be food lovers and we all like to talk about Oh, I think this could use a little bit more flavor/ or I think this has a hint of meat/ I cant really pa
43、rticipate in those conversations,she says.Pradam thinks her smell loss also may have affected her memory. Pradhan may be on to something, according to biologist Paul Moore.
