I have vlunteered t learn abut glbal custms; my knwledge f my native culture is limited. I had bxed up my past befre mving t America eight years ag, when a new cntinent cnsidered my ld self freign.
Here n the Natinal Mall, I am the nly means f cmmunicatin between the Americans and the artisan (工匠), wh were invited frm China t display their talents. They see my awkward hand gestures as I test my mther tngue, speaking Mandarin (普通话) and putting it int English fr visitrs.

I smile at Guya, as he paints in pictgraphic characters the English wrds I have taught him, “Yu’re welcme.” I cme t knw that culture is nt shelved behind glass cases in museums. It is in the life that I nce thught backward and dull — the Chinese way f life that is a part f me.

Blue whales are the largest creatures t live n Earth after the dinsaurs. These amazing creatures are nt nly the largest whale species but als the largest mammal (哺乳动物) species t have ever existed n Earth.
The average length f a blue whale is 23—27 meters and its weight is frm 100 t 150 tns. In spite f their large size, blue whales can swim at a fast speed f 25 t 30 miles per hur.

Regularly practicing facial “yga”, r exercises fr yur facial muscles, may actually make yu lk yunger, early research suggests，
In a small, new study, researchers taught 27 middle-age wmen (ages 40 t 65) hw t perfrm 32 facial exercises, which included simple actins such as smiling in the cheeks. After this training, the participants perfrmed these exercises at hme fr 30 minutes a day, every day fr eight weeks. On the ninth week f the study, the participants reduced the frequency f their 30-minute exercise rutine t every ther day (three t fur days a week), and cntinued the exercise fr 20 weeks.
The participants als had their phts taken at the beginning and end f the study, and several dctrs rated these phts using a standard methd fr assessing the appearance f aging in the face and neck. The raters, wh didn’t knw which phts were taken befre and which phts were taken after the exercises, als estimated the age f the persn in the pht.
After 20 weeks, the participants had better ratings fr the fullness f their cheeks, n average, cmpared with their ratings at the start f the study. In ther wrds, their cheeks lked fuller after their 20-week facial exercise. This change in cheek fullness als made the participants lk yunger: Raters estimated that the participants lked nearly three years yunger after the exercises, cmpared with befre.
Hwever, the findings are preliminary and shuld be cnfirmed with a larger study, the researchers said. And many questins remain abut exactly which exercises are beneficial and wh might benefit frm them. “The study invlved middle-age, mainly white wmen, wh stayed in the study fr 20 weeks, s it’s nt knwn whether the effects seen in the study wuld apply t men, r t peple f ther ages r races. It’s als nt clear hw lng peple need t perfrm the exercises in rder t see benefits,” lead study authr Dr. Murad Alam said.
12. What did the researchers first d in the study?
A. They trained the participants.
B. They divided the participants int grups.
C. They tk phts f the participants.
D. They checked the faces f the participants.
13. What was the participants’ specific change accrding t the study?
A. They lked healthier.B. They gt fuller facial utline.
C They became interested in Yga.D. They gt t smile mre frequently.
14. What des the underlined wrd “cnfirmed” in the last paragraph mean?
A. prvedB. questinedC. challengedD. affected
15. What can be inferred frm Dr. Murad Alam’s wrds?
A. Mre facial exercises will be perfrmed.
B. Middle-aged wmen will nt be included.
C. Men participants will appear in later studies.
D. 20 weeks is enugh t test if an exercise wrks.

Regularly practicing facial “yga”, r exercises fr yur facial muscles, may actually make yu lk yunger, early research suggests，
In a small, new study, researchers taught 27 middle-age wmen (ages 40 t 65) hw t perfrm 32 facial exercises, which included simple actins such as smiling in the cheeks. After this training, the participants perfrmed these exercises at hme fr 30 minutes a day, every day fr eight weeks. On the ninth week f the study, the participants reduced the frequency f their 30-minute exercise rutine t every ther day (three t fur days a week), and cntinued the exercise fr 20 weeks.
The participants als had their phts taken at the beginning and end f the study, and several dctrs rated these phts using a standard methd fr assessing the appearance f aging in the face and neck. The raters, wh didn’t knw which phts were taken befre and which phts were taken after the exercises, als estimated the age f the persn in the pht.
After 20 weeks, the participants had better ratings fr the fullness f their cheeks, n average, cmpared with their ratings at the start f the study. In ther wrds, their cheeks lked fuller after their 20-week facial exercise. This change in cheek fullness als made the participants lk yunger: Raters estimated that the participants lked nearly three years yunger after the exercises, cmpared with befre.
Hwever, the findings are preliminary and shuld be cnfirmed with a larger study, the researchers said. And many questins remain abut exactly which exercises are beneficial and wh might benefit frm them. “The study invlved middle-age, mainly white wmen, wh stayed in the study fr 20 weeks, s it’s nt knwn whether the effects seen in the study wuld apply t men, r t peple f ther ages r races. It’s als nt clear hw lng peple need t perfrm the exercises in rder t see benefits,” lead study authr Dr. Murad Alam said.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项新研究。研究表明，定期练习面部肌肉运动，即“面部瑜伽”，可能使人看起来更年轻。然而，这项成果需要更大的研究来确认，并需要进一步研究哪些运动是有益的，并针对哪些人群有效。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“In a small, new study, researchers taught 27 middle-age wmen (ages 40 t 65) hw t perfrm 32 facial exercises, which included simple actins such as smiling in the cheeks. After this training, the participants perfrmed these exercises at hme fr 30 minutes a day, every day fr eight weeks.(在一项小型的新研究中，研究人员教27名中年女性(年龄在40岁到65岁之间)如何进行32种面部运动，其中包括一些简单的动作，比如在脸颊上微笑。训练结束后，参与者每天在家做这些练习30分钟，持续八周)”可知，在研究之前，研究人员教27名中年女性(年龄在40岁到65岁之间)如何进行32种面部运动，即首先对参与者进行面部动作的训练。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“After 20 weeks, the participants had better ratings fr the fullness f their cheeks, n average, cmpared with their ratings at the start f the study. In ther wrds, their cheeks lked fuller after their 20-week facial exercise. (20周后，与研究开始时相比，参与者对脸颊丰满度的平均评分有所提高。换句话说，在20周的面部锻炼后，他们的脸颊看起来更饱满)”可知，经过20周的训练后，参与者的脸颊看起来更饱满，即他们的面部轮廓更丰满。故选B。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“Hwever, the findings are preliminary (然而，这些发现只是初步的)”以及后文中“And many questins remain abut exactly which exercises are beneficial and wh might benefit frm them.(至于哪些运动是有益的，哪些人可能从中受益，还有许多问题有待解决)”可知，当前的研究只是初步的发现，因此对于哪些运动是有益的，哪些人可能从中受益，还有许多问题有待解决，需要进一步证明。故划线词与A选项“prved(被证明)”为同义词。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The study invlved middle-age, mainly white wmen, wh stayed in the study fr 20 weeks, s it’s nt knwn whether the effects seen in the study wuld apply t men, r t peple f ther ages r races. It’s als nt clear hw lng peple need t perfrm the exercises in rder t see benefits,(这项研究涉及的是中年女性，主要是白人女性，她们在研究中呆了20周，所以不知道研究中看到的效果是否适用于男性，或者其他年龄或种族的人。目前还不清楚人们需要多长时间才能看到好处)”可推知，根据Dr. Murad Alam话可知，该研究的主要参与对象是中年女性，因此为了证明研究的可信度，男性参与者将在以后的研究中出现。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章通过实例给父母建议如何鼓励青少年减肥。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意：随着越来越多的孩子超重，我们需要找到创造性的方法来鼓励他们养成健康的习惯。修饰名词ways应用其形容词。故填creative。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意：超重会影响他们的受欢迎程度、自尊心、交友能力——这些对青少年来说都很重要。物主代词their限定名词，应用名词ppularity(不可数)作宾语。故填ppularity。
【38题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：他担心衣服使他看起来很胖。分析可知，此处引导宾语从句，从句中意义完整，故用没有实际意义的that引导。故填that。
【39题详解】
考查时态。句意：当他终于减肥时，他觉得一个巨大的负担消失了。根据前文felt可知，此处描述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时。动词lift“消散，消失”是不及物动词，不用被动语态，应用过去式作谓语，故填lifted。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：他们需要有帮助的父母，父母要创造健康的家庭环境，并成为好榜样。serve as“充当，成为”是固定搭配，符合句意。故填as。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：当父母减肥成功时，他们的孩子也更有可能成功。be likely t d sth“有可能做某事”是固定句型。故填t succeed。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：她建议关掉电视，限制电脑时间。动词suggest后应用动名词作宾语。故填turning。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：研究表明，在屏幕前呆上几个小时的孩子更不活跃，而且他们坐着的时候更容易无意识地吃零食。修饰动词snacking用副词。故填mindlessly。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：她还说，父母可能需要一些额外的指导来帮助超重的青少年达到他们准备减肥的阶段。此处引导限制性定语从句，先行词为stage，从句中结构完整，应用关系副词where引导从句，作地点状语。故填where。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意：卫生保健专业人员可以提供青少年愿意听取的有价值的建议，以及对父母和青少年的支持。动词prvide后应用其名词suggestin作宾语，suggestin为可数名词，零冠词复数表泛指。故填suggestins。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知，作者的女儿Jane想要邀请自己的朋友来家里，这让作者想起了自己童年时的好朋友Susan，回忆了当初和Susan相处的事情，后来因为作者搬家就没能再和Susan见面。第二天Jane把新朋友带回家，小女孩说自己叫J，她妈妈两个小时后来接她。
续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：我很困惑，因为我女儿的新朋友看起来很面熟。所以后文应该是讲述作者对于觉得J面熟的困惑，以及看到J和Jane两个女孩相处得很好，作者从心底里为女儿感到高兴。
第二段开头是：两个小时过得真快，有人敲门。本段应该写J的妈妈来接J，作者发现正是Susan，Susan曾经联系过作者，但作者一家已经搬走了。两个小女孩也很为他们高兴，Susan和作者都留下了快乐的泪水。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：puzzle sb.；cnvince neself that；imaginatin；get n very well；turn ut等高级词汇；She tld me that her family just mved frm Ls Angeles, which puzzled me even mre because I had never been t Ls Angeles and we had n relatives living in Ls Angeles, either.运用宾语从句和非限制性定语从句；The tw little girls were happy t see their mthers became gd friends at nce befre we tld them ur stry, with happy tears rlling dwn ur cheeks.运用时间状语从句等高级句式。
