Section A
Directions:In this section,there are four passages followed by questions or unfinished statements,each with four suggested answers A,B,C and D. Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Five or six year ago, I attended a lecture on the science of attention. A philosopher who conducts research in the medical school was talking about attention blindness, the basic feature of the human brain that, when we concentrate intensely on one task, causes us to miss just about everything else. Because we can’t see what we can’t see, our lecture was determined to catch us in the act. He had us watch a video of six people tossing basketball back and forth, three in white shirts and three in black, and our task was to keep track only of the tosses among the people in white. The tape rolled, and everyone began counting.
Everyone except me, I’m dyslexic(有阅读障碍的), and the moment I saw that grainy tape with the confusing basketball tosses, I knew I wouldn’t be able to keep track of their movements, so I let my mind wander. My curiosity was aroused, though, when about 30 seconds into the tape, a gorilla(大猩猩) came in among the players. She (we later learned a female student was in the gorilla suit) start at the camera, thumped her chest, and the strode away while they continued passing the balls.
When the tape stopped, the philosopher asked how many people had counted at least d a dozen basketball tosses. Hands went up all over. He then asked who had counted 13, 14, and congratulated those who’d scored the perfect 15. The he asked, “And who saw the gorilla?”
I raised my hand and was surprised to discover I was the only person at my table and one of only three or four in the large room to do so. He’d set me up, trapping us in our own attention blindness. Yes, there had been a trick, but he wasn’t the one who had played it on us. By concentrating so hard on counting, we had managed to miss the gorilla in the midst.

Passage Two
There are few sadder sights than a pile of fan letter, lovingly decorated with hand drawings, suffering in a bin. The sparkly envelopes were addressed to Taylor Swift, a pop star much beloved by teenage and pre-teen girls. “Dear Taylor”, read one discard message, “I love you so much!! You’re the best! And you’re really beautiful and cute!! I’m really enjoying your songs
This, along with hundreds of other similar letters sent from around the world, was discovered in Nashville recycling disposal unit by a local woman. Swift’s management was quick to reassure her admirers that they had been thrown out accidentally. The response may come as a disappointment to any devotee who imagine, as they compose their letter, that Swift make time to view each one personally
Dealing with pile of fan mail is, however, an administrative burden for most celebrities. While some celebrities do like to go through their mail personally, the majority simply do not have time. But the fact f their correspondence is something most committed fans will not wish to dwell on, say Lynn Zubernis, an expert in the psychology of fandom at West Chester University.
“There’s this little bit of every fan that thinks theirs will be the one that stands out- it’s not an expectation, but a hope that theirs will be seen by the celebrity.”
While the relationship between the fan and the celebrity may exist only in the mind of the former, it sterns from a deeply-rooted human need for community and belonging, Zubernis believe. As a result, even receiving a mass-produced letter of acknowledgment and a photo stamped with a reproduced signature can be a powerful experience.
“People have a tremendous need to connect with the person they are idolizing(偶像化),” she says, “They can’t ring up and say, ‘ Can we have coffee?’ It’s not about the autograph(签名). It’s about the moment of connection.”
26. Which of the following statements is true?
A. The letters in the bin were exaggerating.
B. Some letters to Swift were thrown away unread.
C. A woman discovered the letters and discard them
D. Poorly decorated letters were left unread
27. Swift management claimed that______
A. Swift had read each one of letters
B. fans could trust them with their letters
C. they were quick in response to the incident
D. they didn’t intend to throw away the letters.
28. Most celebrities___________
A. are too busy to read fan mail
B. are afraid of receiving fan mail
C. try their best to read fan mail themselves.
D. care about the fate of fan mail
29. According to Zubernis, fans want their letters to be read because they_____
A. hope to show their hand drawing
B. want the celebrities to see their talent
C. desire to get connection with the stars
D. dream of getting a photo of the stars
30. Which of the following will fans cherish the most?
A. The feeling of being related to their stars.
B. The sense of being similar to their stars.
C. The time spent with their stars.
D. The autograph of their stars.
Passage Three
Facelift(紧肤术) followed by a week on a beach in Thailand? Hip surgery with a side of shopping in Singapore? Over the last 10 years, Asia’s rise on the medical tourism scene has been quick. Eastern nations dominate the global scene. Now Bali wants a slice of the action.
The Indonesian island recently opened its first facility specifically targeting medical tourists with package and service, Bali International Medical Centre (BIMC) Nusa Dua. BIMC already has an international hospital in Kuta, which opened in 1998.
The new internationally managed facility offers surgical and non-surgical cosmetic procedures and dental care.
Unlike most of the region’s hospitals, BIMC is designed to feel more like a spa or resort(度假村) than a medical facility.
The 50-bed hospital has a 24-hour medical emergency entrance and hotel-like lobby at the front of the building servicing the hospital’s medicals, and dental centers.
If you’re a celebrity who doesn’t want everyone to know you’re here for a bit of lipo (吸脂术),no worries. There’s private entrance that leads to the CosMedic Centre, which offers views of a golf course.
BIMC has even teamed up with the nearby Courtyard by Marriott Bali, which provides specific after-care service like tailor-made meals and wellness programs for patient.
Latest technology and cool interiors are a star, but breaking into a regional industry that already has some of the world’s top international hospital will be tough, says Joesf Woodman, CEO of U.S-based medical travel consumer guide Patients Beyond Borders(PBB).
“As a newcomer, Bali faces stiff competition from nearby international healthcare providers. To compete, Bali will need to demonstrate a quality level of care and promote its services to the region and the world. On the positive side, Bali is blessed as one of the region’s safest, most popular tourist destinations, with a built –in potential to attract medical travelers.”
The Indonesian island couldn’t have picked a better time to get into the game, says PBB. “The world population is aging and becoming wealthier at rate s that surpass the availability of quality healthcare resource,” says the company’s research.
31. What does “medical tourism” (Para. 1) probably mean?
A. Treating a disease during a trip
B. Attracting patients with package tours
C. Cosmetic treatment and a tour in one
D. Turning hospital into tourist attractions
32. How does BIMC differ from regular hospitals?
A. It offers cosmetic surgery
B. It has better environment and services.
C. It accepts international patients.
D. It has more beds and longer service hours.
33. BIMC wishes to attract celebrities with its______
A. privacy measures
B. first-class design
C. free golf course
D. tailor-made meals
34. According to Woodman, BIMC____
A. threatens its regional competitors
B. will soon take the lead in the industry
C. needs further improvement
D. faces both challenges and opportunities
35. What can be concluded from the last paragraph?
A. The population is developing faster than medical resources.
B. Healthcare is hardly available for the aging population
C. The world is in need of more quality medical care.
D. The world population is becoming older and richer.
Passage Four
For many of us, asking for help is a difficult concept. We may feel as if we are admitting a weakness that world would not have known about, had we not asked for help.
Ironically, it’s been my experience that people who are able to deliver well-positioned requests for help are seen as very strong individuals. When they demonstrate the humility(谦卑) to ask for help, they earn the respect of others. People who receive a heartfelt request for help are usually honored by the request. In turn, we are strengthened by the very help that is provided.
One of my clients (we’ll call her Kira) recently made shift in how she was interacting with her boss. When asked to prepare presentations, she assumed that she was expected to go away, develop the content, deliver it at the required meeting and then wait for feedback from her boss. Her boss was highly regarded for the impact of his presentations, while Kira often that her presentations were lacking. When she took a hard look at how this approach was working for her, Kira recognized that she had not yet made use of her boss’s support. She could learn far more about creating attractive presentations by walking through a draft with her boss-focusing on the content plus her delivery- and obtaining feedback earlier in the process rather than at the back end. So she made the request for his support.
The outcome? Her boss was delighted to coach Kira and was enthusiastic about the opportunity to put into use his own strength by teaching presentation skills more effectively to her. By taking the time to work together on presentation for a number of Kira’s key presentations, she benefited from her boss’s thought process and was able to distinguish the critical components to enhance her own presentations. Kir’s presentations now have punch!
Some of us are uncomfortable asking for help because we believe that our request places burdens on the other person. Ironically, we may be missing an opportunity to show others how are value and respect them. People who know you and think well of you are often highly motivated to help. Furthermore, the more specific you can be about what you need from them, the easier it is for them to assist you.
36. Many people are unwilling to ask for help because they____
A. are confident of themselves
B. do not trust other people
C. are ashamed of doing so
D. do not think it necessary
37. Which of the following may the author agree with?
A. Asking for help means admitting weaknesses.
B. Helping others is helping oneself.
C. Well-positioned requests for help are welcomed
D. Weak people often need more help.
38. Kira’s requests for help_____
A. turned out rewarding
B. was turned down
C. led to her promotion
D. benefited her boss in return
39. “Kira’s presentations now have punch” means her presentations are______
A. forceful
B. controversial
C. well received
D. highly motivating
40. The purpose of the passage is to _____
A. illustrate how to ask for help
B. show the importance of mutual help
C. call for attention to other’s requests
D. encourage people to ask for help
Section B
Directions:In this section,you are required to read one quoted blog and the comments on it. The blog and comments are followed by questions or unfinished statements,each with four suggested answers A,B,C and D. Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the answer sheet.
A fascinating new study reveals that Americans are more likely to call their children “intelligent,” while European parents focus on happiness and balance.
Here’s what one parent had to say about the intelligence of her 3-year-old, which was apparent to her from the very first moments of her life:
“I have this vivid memory, when she was born, of them taking her to clean her off… And she was looking all around… She was alert from the very first second… I took her out when she was six weeks old to a shopping mall to have her picture taken- people would stop me and say, “What an alert baby.” One guy stopped me and said, “Lady, she was an intelligent baby. ”
Not only are Americans far more likely to focus on their children’s intelligence and cognitive skills, they are also far less likely to describe them as “happen” or “easy” children to parent.
“The U.S ‘s unhealthy interest in cognitive development in the early years overlooks so much else,” the researchers told us.
Comment 1:
Probably indicates more about differences in cultural attitudes towards humility and boasting than about parenting styles. Here in the Netherlands if someone called their child “intelligent” I’d be rolling my eyes, both because it’s probably biased and overstated and because it’s just a rotten thing to draw attention to; as if it’s all about whose child it “better”. Life isn’t that much of a damn contest to us.
Comment 2:
Agreed! That would apply in Sweden too. Parenting is more focused on the child’s well-being than social competition (there may be pressure here too, but it is not socially acceptable to express those things).
Comment 3:
I agree and I live in the U.S Parent’s opinions of their children’s intellect are definitely biased and overstated. It is the most annoying thing to listen to. Being “advanced” at a young age has little if anything to do with their ability to learn as they get older and EVERY child is a genius if you give them a chance and an to listen to them. The happier the Kid is, the smarter they will be. Happy and healthy is key.
41. The passage is mainly concerned with cultural differences in .
A. bringing up one’s children
B. describing one’s children
C. social contests
D. choosing a place to live in
42. The world “alert”(Para.3) is closest in meaning to .
A. intelligent
B. easy-going
C. quick at noticing things
D. happy
43. According to Comment 1, in the Netherlands, calling one’s own child “intelligent” is .
A. boasting
B. acceptable
C. encouraging
D. reasonable
44. What nationality is the writer of Comment 2?
A. Dutch
B. American
C. Swedish
D. French
45.All of the following are true of Comment 3 EXCEPT that 。
A. it agrees with all the other comments
B. being happy and healthy is important
C. being intelligent at a young age makes no sense
D. children’s intellect varies from person to person

The Possibility of Using Mobile Phone to Study English (or Any Other Subject)
As modern technology is making mobile phones more and more “intelligent”, they tend to become handy tools to obtain information from a vast variety of on-line resources. So it becomes increasingly possible for us to use them as convenient tools to study English.
When you need to improve your spoken English, you can download conversations, movies or even live English programs wherever there is Wi-Fi service. If you feel like learning writing skills, you could also surge on line for amazing passages which take you on a trip of skillful writings in English. In case that you should study English for academic advancement, you will find mobile phones equally powerful. It makes it available for you to have a person-to-person conversation with your professor, who is currently visiting another country, on your paper for modern literature!
So it is without any doubt that mobile phones are becoming attractive gadgets, if properly used, for people who want to study English or any other subject. As they become smarter and ever more handy, there is much potentiality that they might one day take the place of computer or even classroom for our future study!
