A
NEW HAVEN, Connecticut —— A surprise awaited students in Yale who showed up for Professor Laurie Santos’s class. They got slips of paper that said, “No class today.” There was only one rule for the students ‘ unexpected free time——They were not allowed to study, but to relax. Since exams and papers were coming up, everyone was tired and stressed. At this moment they were touched. With around applause, nine students hugged Santos, and two burst into tears.
Yet, cancelling class was not just a break. It was also a challenge, as she was asking them to stop worrying about their grades, even if it was just an hour. One student went to the Yale University Art Gallery for the first time in her four years at Yale. A group of students went to a recording studio and played a new song. More people were outside, and more were smiling. That’s why about 1,200 students were taking Santos’s class, called “Psychology and the Good Life,” the largest class in Yale’s 317-year history. Even non-Yale students had the chance to take Santos’s class. It was offered as an online course and she immediately became an Internet hit.
Skyler Robinson, one of her students, was at a loss for a while about what to do during his break, and then decided to take a nap. “It was a great nap,” he commented. Santos designed the class after she realized that her students kept busy through long days that seemed far more depressing and joyless than her own college years. “They feel they’re in this crazy rat race. They’re working so hard that they can’t take a single hour off. That’s awful.”
The ideas behind the class are simple. Santos said, “It is the hope that science can help students find peace among all the stresses and difficulties they face at college.” The lessons include showing more gratitude, performing acts of kindness and increasing social connections. The students really wanted to learn to lead a happy life in a science -driven way. Santos also noted the psychological happening of “mis-wanting”, which led people to work towards the wrong goals in life.
One week, Santo asked students to exercise. Another week, she wanted them to get more sleep. They worked hard to keep some new habits. Social science research led to many new understandings of how people find happiness. She thinks her class can change Yale, or rather, not just Yale.
1. How did students respond to the cancelling class?
A. They expressed their concern.
B. They were at a loss what to do.
C. They showed gratitude to the teacher.
D. They were eager to study individually.
2. How can we know Santo’s class was popular?
A. From the attendence in her class.
B. From the subject she taught.
C. From the long history of Yale.
D. From the release of the online course.
3. What can students learn from Santos’s class?
A. To develop good study habits.
B. To let exercise become their routine.
C. To better understand how to find happiness.
D. To do something joyful during the stressful time.
4. What can we infer from the text?
A. Santos had a more stressful time in her college.
B. Students would be in rat race after Santos’s class.
C. Santos’s influence can reach a wider range of people.
D. Santos is going to cancel more classes for better effects.

B
As unpleasant emotions go, anxiety is the roughest. It's a vague, pit-of-the-stomach fear that sneaks up to you -- that unease you get when your boss says that she needs to talk to you right away, when the phone rings at 4:00 a.m., or when your dentist looks into your mouth and says "Hmm" for the third time.
Lingering anxiety can keep you up at night, make you irritable, undermine your ability to concentrate, and ruin your appetite. And the constant state of readiness generated by anxiety--- adrenaline pumping, heart racing, palms sweating--may contribute to high blood pressure and heart disease.
How to prevent anxiety then?
Meditate. Maybe you're just high-strung. If so, meditation(冥想) is worth a try. It cultivates a calmness that eases anxious feelings and offers a sense of control. A study at the University of Massachusetts found that volunteers who took an 8-week meditation course were considerably less anxious afterward. People who are high-strung find that they are dramatically calmer with 20 minutes of meditation in the morning and another 20 minutes after dinner.
Jog,walk, swim, or cycle. If you can't make time for meditation, be sure to make time for regular exercise. Exercise can have the same calming effect as meditation, particularly if it's something repetitive like running or swimming laps.
Treatment?
Remember to breathe. When you're anxious, you tend to hold your breath or breathe too shallowly. That makes you feel more anxious. Breathing slowly and deeply can have a calming effect. To make sure that you're breathing correctly, place your hand on your diaphragm(横膈膜), just below your rib cage(胸腔). Feel it rise with each inhalation(吸气) and fall with each exhalation.
Let's say you are anxious about your competence on the job. Ask yourself "What, in particular, am I afraid that I'll mess up?" Maybe you’re afraid that you get further behind and miss your deadlines. Or maybe you're worried that you're blowing it whenever you present your ideas in meetings. Are your worries founded? Have you had several near misses with deadlines? Are your suggestions routinely rejected? If not, the anxiety is needless. If there is a real problem, work on a solution: Pace yourself to better meet deadlines, or join a public speaking class.
5. Which of the following symptoms is NOT directly caused by anxiety?
A. Lower in concentration. B. No appetite.
C. Heart racing. D. High blood pressure.
6. According to the passage, what can be done to avoid anxiety?
A. Exercising regularly. B. Keeping breath steady.
C. Breathing with the help of hands. D. Adjusting the pace of life.
7. What is the last paragraph about?
A. Anxiety at work and its solutions. B. People's anxiety about their capabilities.
C. The reason for someone's incompetence. D. The function of public speaking class.
【答案】5. D 6. A 7. A
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文，介绍了焦虑的危害以及防止和应对焦虑的方法。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Lingering anxiety can keep you up at night, make you irritable, undermine your ability to concentrate, and ruin your appetite. And the constant state of readiness generated by anxiety--- adrenaline pumping, heart racing, palms sweating--may contribute to high blood pressure and heart disease.”可知，持续的焦虑会让你晚上失眠，让你烦躁，破坏你集中注意力的能力，破坏你的食欲。焦虑产生的准备状态——肾上腺素抽吸、心跳加速、手掌出汗——可能会导致高血压和心脏病，由此可知，注意力不集中、没有食欲、心跳加速是直接由焦虑引起的，而高血压是其间接引起的，故D项正确。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Exercise can have the same calming effect as meditation, particularly if it's something repetitive”可知，锻炼可以和冥想有同样的镇静效果，特别是如果它是重复性的，由此可知，经常锻炼会防止焦虑，故A项正确。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读最后一段，特别是根据“Let's say you are anxious about your competence on the job.”及“If there is a real problem, work on a solution: Pace yourself to better meet deadlines, or join a public speaking class.”可知，本段主要讲的是工作中的焦虑及其解决方法——调整自己的步调以便更好地完成最后期限，或者参加一个公开演讲班，故A项正确。
C
One man’s white bread is another man’s green vegetables.
That’s the key from The Personalised Diet, a new book from Israeli authors Eran Segal and Eran Elinav. The authors say it’s time to admit to ourselves that one-size-fits-all diets don’t work, and when it comes to nutrition,it’s about doing what works best for your body, not catching the latest diet fashion.
“For years,we’ve been trying to search for that silver-bullet diet and we’ve been miserably failing,” Segal said. “And that’s because the best diet for each person really has to be tailored to that individual.”
They conducted a personalised nutrition project at Weizmann, where hundreds of volunteers agreed to have their blood sugar tested after meals. One participant in the study, a woman named Ruti, said she was surprised that it was tomatoes -- not ice cream or candies -- that were raising her blood sugar level. Ruti recalled, “I have now significantly reduced my intake of tomato and I’m feeling much more energetic, which still surprises me. I have already lost a couple of pounds, and I have high hopes that I have finally found the answer to my weight struggle, too.”
The Israeli scientists found that some people can consume traditionally unhealthy foods with little or no rise in their blood sugar levels, while others have a stronger response, and therefore shouldn’t eat those foods. It’s those kinds of results that you can only find from a personalised diet.
“What we were surprised to find out was just like any other food, there is no such thing as good bread,” Elinav said. “The response to bread was completely individualised.”
8. What is suggested in the first sentence?
A. Everyone has their own tastes.
B. Nutrition serves your body best.
C. People’s response to the same food is different.
D. The latest diet doesn’t fit each person.
9. What does “that silver-bullet diet” refer to?
A. A diet that is low in fat.
B. A diet that begins a new diet trend.
C. A diet that works best for everyone.
D. A diet that provides all the nutrition.
10. Ruti’s example suggests that to control weight, one needs to .
A. eat much fewer tomatoes
B. control their blood sugar levels
C struggle for weight loss constantly
D. eat according to his or her blood sugar level
11. Why is Elinav’s opinion on bread mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To advise people not to eat unhealthy food.
B. To stress the need of the personalised diet.
C. To explain the popularity of white bread.
D. To show the importance of good bread.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇议论文。文章的论点是最好的食物因人而异，文章用反面论证（“银弹”减肥法）和试验论证（Ruti血糖的摄入来自于西红柿）的论证方法来证明论点。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一句One man’s white bread is another man’s green vegetables.（一个人的白面包是另一个人的青菜。）和第二段的That’s the key from The Personalised Diet, a new book from Israeli authors Eran Segal and Eran Elinav. The authors say it’s time to admit to ourselves that one-size-fits-all diets don’t work, and when it comes to nutrition,it’s about doing what works best for your body, not catching the latest diet fashion.（这是来自以色列作家Eran Segal和Eran Elinav的新书《个性化饮食》的关键。作者说，应该承认，一刀切的饮食不起作用，当涉及到营养，它是关于做什么对你的身体最好，而不是赶上最新的饮食时尚。）可推断，第一句话的意思是人们对同一种食物的反应是不同的，故可推断C项正确，故选C。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段的“For years, we’ve been trying to search for that silver-bullet diet and we’ve been miserably failing,” Segal said. “And that’s because the best diet for each person really has to be tailored to that individual.”（Segal说:“多年来，我们一直试图寻找一种‘银弹’饮食，但不幸失败了。”“那是因为对每个人来说，最好的饮食确实要因人而异。”）可推断，Segal他们一直在寻找的一种叫做“银弹饮食”失败的原因是对于每个人来说，最好的饮食要因人而异，故可推知在这里“银弹饮食”指的是对每个人都最有效的饮食。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的she was surprised that it was tomatoes -- not ice cream or candies -- that were raising her blood sugar level（她吃惊的是西红柿——而不是冰淇淋或糖果——提高了她的血糖水平）和I have now significantly reduced my intake of tomato…I have already lost a couple of pounds（我现在已经大大减少了番茄的摄入量…我已经减掉了几磅…）可知，Ruti的血糖摄入来自于西红柿，她减少了西红柿的摄入量，也因此她的体重也有所减少，由此可以看出，通过Ruti的例子可以看出，一个人控制体重需要根据他或她的血糖水平进食。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“What we were surprised to find out was just like any other food, there is no such thing as good bread,”…“The response to bread was completely individualised.”(我们惊讶地发现，和其他食物一样，没有什么比好面包更好了。……对面包的反应完全个性化。”)可知，最后一段提到了Elinav对面包的看法的原因是强调个性化饮食的必要性。故选B。
【点睛】在做推理判断题时，paraphrasing（同义转换）是阅读理解题常用的一种解题方法，正确答案往往是原文句义或原文中的某个词同义的转换，如第4小题，B 选项B. To stress the need of the personalised diet中的personalised和原文The response to bread was completely individualised.中的individualised是同义的，意为“个人的、有个性的”。
D
Archaeologists used DNA taken from a broken clay pipe stem found in Maryland to build a picture of an enslaved woman who died around 200 years ago and had origins in modern-day Sierra Leone. One researcher called the work “a mind-blower.”
“In this particular context, and from that time period, I think it’s a first,” team member Hannes Schroeder told The Washington Post. “To be able to get DNA from an object like a pipe stem is quite exciting. Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities. Through this technology, they’re able to make a connection not only to the site but potentially back to Africa.”
The pipe stem was found at the Belvoir plantation in Crownsville, Maryland, where enslaved people lived until 1864 and where a likely slave cemetery was recently found. DNA taken from the pipe linked back to a woman either directly from or descended from the Mende people, who lived in west Africa, in an area now part of Sierra Leone.
Julie Schablitsky, the chief archaeologist with the Maryland state highway administration, told The Post the discovery, based on saliva(唾液) absorbed into the clay pipe, was a “mind-blower”. She also said records show the existence of a slave trade route Sierra Leone to Annapolis, plied(定期往来) by British and American ships. “As soon as people stepped on those slave ships in Africa,” she said, “whether they were from Benin or whether they were from Sierra Leone, wherever they were from, that identity was lost. Their humanity is robbed. Who they are as a people has gone.”
The new analysis is part of ongoing research around Belvoir that has given descendants of the people enslaved there new insight into the lives of their ancestors. Speaking to The Post, Nancy Daniels, a genealogist from Laurel, Maryland, who thinks she is a descendant of enslaved families from Belvoir but was not linked to the research on the pipe, called the discovery “overwhelming.” “I’m sitting here about ready to cry,” she said. “I’m sorry. I'm so happy ... Thank God for the DNA.”
This year, events and ceremonies are being held to mark the 400th anniversary of the arrival of the first enslaved people in America, at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619.
12. What does the phrase “a mind-blower” in paragraphs 1 and 4 refer to?
A. A surprise. B. A confusion.
C. An excitement. D. A fascination.
13. According to Hannes Schroeder, the pipe stem was of great significance because________.
A. it was the first direct evidence that slaves living in Maryland were originally from Africa
B. it helped the archaeologists to draw a portrait of the enslaved woman
C. it might contribute to identifying the birthplace of the descendant communities
D. it contained genetic clues to the ancestral background of its owner
14. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The owner of the pipe once lived in what is now an area in west Africa.
B. The history of slavery in America is an ongoing topic of concern.
C. African slaves lost their identities when they arrived at the Belvoir plantation.
D. Nancy Daniels, a genealogist was sorry for not being involved in the research.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. DNA from an old pipe throws lights on the origins of the enslaved
B. A new research reveals the origins of enslaved African woman
C. The descendants of enslaved people seek their identities
D. DNA contributes to the breakthrough of a new research
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲了考古学家们从马里兰州发现的一根断裂的陶土管茎中提取DNA，制作了一幅200年前死去的奴隶妇女的画像，而使得研究者们非常兴奋，从而揭示了被奴役者的起源。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段的To be able to get DNA from an object like a pipe stem is quite exciting. Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities.（能够从一个破碎的陶土管茎上提取DNA是相当令人兴奋的，对于其后代来说也是令人兴奋的）可知，第一段的One researcher called the work “a mind-blower”.可知一位研究人员称这项工作“令人振奋”，第四段的The Post the discovery, based on saliva(唾液) absorbed into the clay pipe, was a “mind-blower”.可知这一基于人们从陶土管茎中吸收的唾液的发现是令人兴奋的。综上，第一段和第四段中“a mind-blower”一词指的“一件兴奋的事”故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段To be able to get DNA from an object like a pipe stem is quite exciting．Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities. Through this technology, they’re able to make a connection not only to the site but potentially back to Africa.（能够从像管茎这样的物体中获得DNA是相当令人兴奋的。对于其后代来说也是令人兴奋的。通过这项技术，他们不仅可以与该地点建立联系，还可以回到那时的非洲。）可知，调查组成员Hannes Schroeder对此次陶土管茎中提取到DNA感到非常兴奋，所以根据Hannes Schroeder的说法，陶土管茎具有重要的意义，因为它包含了这份DNA拥有者的祖先的遗传线索，可以帮助生物学家们进行研究。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，为了纪念第一批被奴役的美国人于1619年抵达弗吉尼亚的詹姆斯敦400周年，人们举行了各种活动和仪式，由此可推知美国奴隶制的历史一直是人们关注的话题。而文章并未提及这个陶土管茎的主人曾经的住处，故A项错误；贝尔沃种植园是这个陶土管茎的发现地，那里的奴隶一直生活到1864年，而不是非洲奴隶在到达贝尔沃种植园时失去了他们的身份，故C项错误；再根据倒数第二段的内容可知，只提到了系谱学家Nancy Daniels对此次发现颇感兴奋，而并未提及她因没有参加这项研究而感到遗憾，故D项正确，综上，故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章的第一段的…to build a picture of an enslaved woman who died around 200 years ago and had origins in modern-day Sierra Leone.（考古学家们从马里兰州发现的一根断裂的陶土管茎中提取DNA，制作了一幅200年前死去的奴隶妇女的画像）和第二段的Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities…they’re able to make a connection not only to the site but potentially back to Africa.（能够从一个破碎的陶土管茎上提取DNA相当令人兴奋的，对于其后代来说也是令人兴奋的）可知，本文主要讲了考古学家们从马里兰州发现的一根断裂的陶土管茎中提取DNA，制作了一幅200年前死去的奴隶妇女的画像，而使得研究者们非常兴奋，这次发现对被奴役者的起源起着至关重要的作用，故可知文章最好的标题是A选项（从陶土的一根管茎中提取的DNA揭示了被奴役者的起源。）故选A。
第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Art galleries are places in which artists can display all types of works of art, including paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures,etc. ____16____ At the same time, however, each artwork must be protected from exposure to too much light since that can cause works to fade and therefore get ruined. ___17___
The most common form of lighting used to light up artwork is indoor spotlights on tracks attached to the ceiling near where the work is being displayed.____18____ It permits the lights to be moved more easily when the light patterns require adjusting. Recessed(嵌入的)lights in walls and ceilings can be useful so long as they are not fixed in place but can instead be easily moved to create ideal light patterns. Most art gallery directors state that a combination of tracked and recessed light equipment is ideal because the tracked lights focus directly on the artwork while the recessed lights are used on the nearby walls to provide a surrounding light source.___19___
How to angle the lights depends upon the height of the ceiling and the size of the artwork. Caution must be taken to avoid creating too many areas with shadows or to have the lights cause a glare on the artwork. Besides, the lights should not be bare bulbs burning directly on the artwork but should be made in some way to make the lighting softer. According to experts, low voltage(电压)bulbs are the best to use when lighting artwork.____20____ Thus artwork should be placed in a room where sunlight can’t directly hit it.
A. It can make the displays attractive.
B. Using tracked lighting is beneficial.
C. Light plays a key role in art galleries.
D. This light source can better improve the mood surrounding the work.
E. To better improve their appearance, the display area needs to be well lit.
F. Finding a happy medium between not enough light and too much of it requires considerable skill and experience.

【答案】16. E 17. F 18. B 19. D 20. G
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了美术馆是艺术家可以展示各种艺术作品的地方，包括绘画、绘画、照片、雕塑等，但美术馆的灯光也是十分重要的。
【16题详解】
根据空后的At the same time, however, each artwork must be protected from exposure to too much light（但同时，每件艺术品都必须避免暴露在过多的光线下）可知，E选项中的be well lit和too much light相呼应，且E选项（为了更好地改善它们的外观，展示区域需要有良好的照明。）承接下文，故选E。
【17题详解】
根据空前内容At the same time, however, each artwork must be protected from exposure to too much light since that can cause works to fade and therefore get ruined. 可知，为了完善在美术馆的艺术作品陈列的效果，就需要良好的照明，而过多的暴露在光线下，会有损作品，所以需要在光线不足和光线过多之间找到一个适合的平衡点，这就需要相当的技巧和经验，F选项可以承接上文内容，故选F。
【18题详解】
根据空前的The most common form of lighting used to light up artwork is indoor spotlights on tracks attached to the ceiling near where the work is being displayed.（用来照亮艺术品的最常见的照明形式是室内射灯，射灯安装在靠近作品展示处的天花板上。）可知，该句中的tracks和B选项中tracked相呼应，且句意（使用履带式照明是有益的。）承接下文，这种履带式照明的灯光更容易移动，故选B。
【19题详解】
根据空前的a combination of tracked and recessed light equipment is ideal because the tracked lights focus directly on the artwork while the recessed lights are used on the nearby walls to provide a surrounding light source.（履带灯和嵌入式灯的组合是理想的，因为履带灯直接聚焦在艺术品上，而嵌入式灯用于附近的墙壁，提供周围的光源。）可知，D选项（这种组合光源可以更好的改善作品周围的环境）能更好地顺承下文，故选D。
【20题详解】
根据空前内容Thus artwork should be placed in a room where sunlight can’t directly hit it.（因此，艺术品应该放在阳光无法直接照射到的地方。）可知，G选项中sunlight和下文sunlight相呼应，且语义（最重要的是，应该避免自然光，因为阳光直射会损坏艺术品，尤其是绘画作品。）承接下文，故选G。
【点睛】单词复现法是七选五常用的做题技巧之一。选项中的词和原文中的词相呼应，如第5小题，G选项中sunlight和下文sunlight相呼应；选项中的词也有可能以词性相互转化的形式出现，如第1小题，E选项中的be well lit和too much light相呼应。

It was a math test, for which I have prepared for a long time. So much importance I attach to it that I even felt a little nervous before a test. My heart began to beat wild immediately I took my seat in the classrooms. Looking at the test paper, our mind went blank. I attempted to focus my attention and it was impossible. So I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, try to calm down. It worked. Gradually I recovered from my calmness. Feeling more relaxing, I picked up my pen and began to write.
【答案】1.have→had
2.I前添加did
3.a→the或that
4.wild→wildly
5.classrooms→classroom
6.our→my
7.and→but
8.try→trying
9.去掉from
10.relaxing→relaxed
【解析】
分析】
这是一篇记叙文。作者参加一次准备了很久了数学测试，作者非常重视这次考试以致于在考场中大脑突然一片空白。最终通过自我调节恢复了冷静放松的故事。
【详解】1.考查动词时态。句意：这是一场我准备了很长时间的数学考试。根据句意可知，prepare动作发生在数学考试之前，即“过去的过去”，故应用过去完成时，have改为had。
2.考查倒装句。在so…that/such…that句型中so，such 位于句首时，句子要部分倒装，根据语境描述过去的事情用一般过去时。故在I前添加助动词did。
3.考查冠词。句意：我如此重视它，以至于在考试前我甚至感到有点紧张。此处特指上文提到的a math test，故应用定冠词the或者指示代词that。故将a改为the/that。
4.考查副词。beat为动词，需要副词修饰，故wild改为wildly。
5.考查名词的数。句意：我一在教室里坐下，我的心就狂跳起来。此处“教室”只有一间，故应用单数形式，classrooms改为classroom。
6.考查形容词性物主代词。句意：看着试卷，我的脑子一片空白。根据前后文，此处指代作者一个人，故our改为my。
7.考查连词。句意：我试图集中注意力，但是不可能。根据句意前后为转折关系，故and改为but。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意：于是我闭上眼睛，深深地吸了一口气，试图平静下来。try在本句中做非谓语与逻辑主语构成主谓关系，故try改为trying。
9.考查介词。recover为及物动词，可以直接跟宾语，故后面不需要介词，故去掉from。
10.考查形容词。句意：我感到放松一些了，便拿起笔开始写。修饰主语I，指人，应用-ed结尾形容词，故relaxing改为relaxed。

A
NEW HAVEN, Connecticut —— A surprise awaited students in Yale who showed up for Professor Laurie Santos’s class. They got slips of paper that said, “No class today.” There was only one rule for the students ‘ unexpected free time——They were not allowed to study, but to relax. Since exams and papers were coming up, everyone was tired and stressed. At this moment they were touched. With around applause, nine students hugged Santos, and two burst into tears.
Yet, cancelling class was not just a break. It was also a challenge, as she was asking them to stop worrying about their grades, even if it was just an hour. One student went to the Yale University Art Gallery for the first time in her four years at Yale. A group of students went to a recording studio and played a new song. More people were outside, and more were smiling. That’s why about 1,200 students were taking Santos’s class, called “Psychology and the Good Life,” the largest class in Yale’s 317-year history. Even non-Yale students had the chance to take Santos’s class. It was offered as an online course and she immediately became an Internet hit.
Skyler Robinson, one of her students, was at a loss for a while about what to do during his break, and then decided to take a nap. “It was a great nap,” he commented. Santos designed the class after she realized that her students kept busy through long days that seemed far more depressing and joyless than her own college years. “They feel they’re in this crazy rat race. They’re working so hard that they can’t take a single hour off. That’s awful.”
The ideas behind the class are simple. Santos said, “It is the hope that science can help students find peace among all the stresses and difficulties they face at college.” The lessons include showing more gratitude, performing acts of kindness and increasing social connections. The students really wanted to learn to lead a happy life in a science -driven way. Santos also noted the psychological happening of “mis-wanting”, which led people to work towards the wrong goals in life.
One week, Santo asked students to exercise. Another week, she wanted them to get more sleep. They worked hard to keep some new habits. Social science research led to many new understandings of how people find happiness. She thinks her class can change Yale, or rather, not just Yale.

As unpleasant emotions go, anxiety is the roughest. It's a vague, pit-of-the-stomach fear that sneaks up to you -- that unease you get when your boss says that she needs to talk to you right away, when the phone rings at 4:00 a.m., or when your dentist looks into your mouth and says "Hmm" for the third time.
Lingering anxiety can keep you up at night, make you irritable, undermine your ability to concentrate, and ruin your appetite. And the constant state of readiness generated by anxiety--- adrenaline pumping, heart racing, palms sweating--may contribute to high blood pressure and heart disease.
How to prevent anxiety then?
Meditate. Maybe you're just high-strung. If so, meditation(冥想) is worth a try. It cultivates a calmness that eases anxious feelings and offers a sense of control. A study at the University of Massachusetts found that volunteers who took an 8-week meditation course were considerably less anxious afterward. People who are high-strung find that they are dramatically calmer with 20 minutes of meditation in the morning and another 20 minutes after dinner.
Jog,walk, swim, or cycle. If you can't make time for meditation, be sure to make time for regular exercise. Exercise can have the same calming effect as meditation, particularly if it's something repetitive like running or swimming laps.
Treatment?
Remember to breathe. When you're anxious, you tend to hold your breath or breathe too shallowly. That makes you feel more anxious. Breathing slowly and deeply can have a calming effect. To make sure that you're breathing correctly, place your hand on your diaphragm(横膈膜), just below your rib cage(胸腔). Feel it rise with each inhalation(吸气) and fall with each exhalation.
Let's say you are anxious about your competence on the job. Ask yourself "What, in particular, am I afraid that I'll mess up?" Maybe you’re afraid that you get further behind and miss your deadlines. Or maybe you're worried that you're blowing it whenever you present your ideas in meetings. Are your worries founded? Have you had several near misses with deadlines? Are your suggestions routinely rejected? If not, the anxiety is needless. If there is a real problem, work on a solution: Pace yourself to better meet deadlines, or join a public speaking class.
5. Which of the following symptoms is NOT directly caused by anxiety?
A. Lower in concentration. B. No appetite.
C. Heart racing. D. High blood pressure.
6. According to the passage, what can be done to avoid anxiety?
A. Exercising regularly. B. Keeping breath steady.
C. Breathing with the help of hands. D. Adjusting the pace of life.
7. What is the last paragraph about?
A. Anxiety at work and its solutions. B. People's anxiety about their capabilities.
C. The reason for someone's incompetence. D. The function of public speaking class.
【答案】5. D 6. A 7. A
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文，介绍了焦虑的危害以及防止和应对焦虑的方法。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Lingering anxiety can keep you up at night, make you irritable, undermine your ability to concentrate, and ruin your appetite. And the constant state of readiness generated by anxiety--- adrenaline pumping, heart racing, palms sweating--may contribute to high blood pressure and heart disease.”可知，持续的焦虑会让你晚上失眠，让你烦躁，破坏你集中注意力的能力，破坏你的食欲。焦虑产生的准备状态——肾上腺素抽吸、心跳加速、手掌出汗——可能会导致高血压和心脏病，由此可知，注意力不集中、没有食欲、心跳加速是直接由焦虑引起的，而高血压是其间接引起的，故D项正确。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Exercise can have the same calming effect as meditation, particularly if it's something repetitive”可知，锻炼可以和冥想有同样的镇静效果，特别是如果它是重复性的，由此可知，经常锻炼会防止焦虑，故A项正确。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读最后一段，特别是根据“Let's say you are anxious about your competence on the job.”及“If there is a real problem, work on a solution: Pace yourself to better meet deadlines, or join a public speaking class.”可知，本段主要讲的是工作中的焦虑及其解决方法——调整自己的步调以便更好地完成最后期限，或者参加一个公开演讲班，故A项正确。

One man’s white bread is another man’s green vegetables.
That’s the key from The Personalised Diet, a new book from Israeli authors Eran Segal and Eran Elinav. The authors say it’s time to admit to ourselves that one-size-fits-all diets don’t work, and when it comes to nutrition,it’s about doing what works best for your body, not catching the latest diet fashion.
“For years,we’ve been trying to search for that silver-bullet diet and we’ve been miserably failing,” Segal said. “And that’s because the best diet for each person really has to be tailored to that individual.”
They conducted a personalised nutrition project at Weizmann, where hundreds of volunteers agreed to have their blood sugar tested after meals. One participant in the study, a woman named Ruti, said she was surprised that it was tomatoes -- not ice cream or candies -- that were raising her blood sugar level. Ruti recalled, “I have now significantly reduced my intake of tomato and I’m feeling much more energetic, which still surprises me. I have already lost a couple of pounds, and I have high hopes that I have finally found the answer to my weight struggle, too.”
The Israeli scientists found that some people can consume traditionally unhealthy foods with little or no rise in their blood sugar levels, while others have a stronger response, and therefore shouldn’t eat those foods. It’s those kinds of results that you can only find from a personalised diet.
“What we were surprised to find out was just like any other food, there is no such thing as good bread,” Elinav said. “The response to bread was completely individualised.”
8. What is suggested in the first sentence?
A. Everyone has their own tastes.
B. Nutrition serves your body best.
C. People’s response to the same food is different.
D. The latest diet doesn’t fit each person.
9. What does “that silver-bullet diet” refer to?
A. A diet that is low in fat.
B. A diet that begins a new diet trend.
C. A diet that works best for everyone.
D. A diet that provides all the nutrition.
10. Ruti’s example suggests that to control weight, one needs to .
A. eat much fewer tomatoes
B. control their blood sugar levels
C struggle for weight loss constantly
D. eat according to his or her blood sugar level
11. Why is Elinav’s opinion on bread mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To advise people not to eat unhealthy food.
B. To stress the need of the personalised diet.
C. To explain the popularity of white bread.
D. To show the importance of good bread.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇议论文。文章的论点是最好的食物因人而异，文章用反面论证（“银弹”减肥法）和试验论证（Ruti血糖的摄入来自于西红柿）的论证方法来证明论点。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一句One man’s white bread is another man’s green vegetables.（一个人的白面包是另一个人的青菜。）和第二段的That’s the key from The Personalised Diet, a new book from Israeli authors Eran Segal and Eran Elinav. The authors say it’s time to admit to ourselves that one-size-fits-all diets don’t work, and when it comes to nutrition,it’s about doing what works best for your body, not catching the latest diet fashion.（这是来自以色列作家Eran Segal和Eran Elinav的新书《个性化饮食》的关键。作者说，应该承认，一刀切的饮食不起作用，当涉及到营养，它是关于做什么对你的身体最好，而不是赶上最新的饮食时尚。）可推断，第一句话的意思是人们对同一种食物的反应是不同的，故可推断C项正确，故选C。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段的“For years, we’ve been trying to search for that silver-bullet diet and we’ve been miserably failing,” Segal said. “And that’s because the best diet for each person really has to be tailored to that individual.”（Segal说:“多年来，我们一直试图寻找一种‘银弹’饮食，但不幸失败了。”“那是因为对每个人来说，最好的饮食确实要因人而异。”）可推断，Segal他们一直在寻找的一种叫做“银弹饮食”失败的原因是对于每个人来说，最好的饮食要因人而异，故可推知在这里“银弹饮食”指的是对每个人都最有效的饮食。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的she was surprised that it was tomatoes -- not ice cream or candies -- that were raising her blood sugar level（她吃惊的是西红柿——而不是冰淇淋或糖果——提高了她的血糖水平）和I have now significantly reduced my intake of tomato…I have already lost a couple of pounds（我现在已经大大减少了番茄的摄入量…我已经减掉了几磅…）可知，Ruti的血糖摄入来自于西红柿，她减少了西红柿的摄入量，也因此她的体重也有所减少，由此可以看出，通过Ruti的例子可以看出，一个人控制体重需要根据他或她的血糖水平进食。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“What we were surprised to find out was just like any other food, there is no such thing as good bread,”…“The response to bread was completely individualised.”(我们惊讶地发现，和其他食物一样，没有什么比好面包更好了。……对面包的反应完全个性化。”)可知，最后一段提到了Elinav对面包的看法的原因是强调个性化饮食的必要性。故选B。
【点睛】在做推理判断题时，paraphrasing（同义转换）是阅读理解题常用的一种解题方法，正确答案往往是原文句义或原文中的某个词同义的转换，如第4小题，B 选项B. To stress the need of the personalised diet中的personalised和原文The response to bread was completely individualised.中的individualised是同义的，意为“个人的、有个性的”。
D
Archaeologists used DNA taken from a broken clay pipe stem found in Maryland to build a picture of an enslaved woman who died around 200 years ago and had origins in modern-day Sierra Leone. One researcher called the work “a mind-blower.”
“In this particular context, and from that time period, I think it’s a first,” team member Hannes Schroeder told The Washington Post. “To be able to get DNA from an object like a pipe stem is quite exciting. Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities. Through this technology, they’re able to make a connection not only to the site but potentially back to Africa.”
The pipe stem was found at the Belvoir plantation in Crownsville, Maryland, where enslaved people lived until 1864 and where a likely slave cemetery was recently found. DNA taken from the pipe linked back to a woman either directly from or descended from the Mende people, who lived in west Africa, in an area now part of Sierra Leone.
Julie Schablitsky, the chief archaeologist with the Maryland state highway administration, told The Post the discovery, based on saliva(唾液) absorbed into the clay pipe, was a “mind-blower”. She also said records show the existence of a slave trade route Sierra Leone to Annapolis, plied(定期往来) by British and American ships. “As soon as people stepped on those slave ships in Africa,” she said, “whether they were from Benin or whether they were from Sierra Leone, wherever they were from, that identity was lost. Their humanity is robbed. Who they are as a people has gone.”
The new analysis is part of ongoing research around Belvoir that has given descendants of the people enslaved there new insight into the lives of their ancestors. Speaking to The Post, Nancy Daniels, a genealogist from Laurel, Maryland, who thinks she is a descendant of enslaved families from Belvoir but was not linked to the research on the pipe, called the discovery “overwhelming.” “I’m sitting here about ready to cry,” she said. “I’m sorry. I'm so happy ... Thank God for the DNA.”
This year, events and ceremonies are being held to mark the 400th anniversary of the arrival of the first enslaved people in America, at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619.
12. What does the phrase “a mind-blower” in paragraphs 1 and 4 refer to?
A. A surprise. B. A confusion.
C. An excitement. D. A fascination.
13. According to Hannes Schroeder, the pipe stem was of great significance because________.
A. it was the first direct evidence that slaves living in Maryland were originally from Africa
B. it helped the archaeologists to draw a portrait of the enslaved woman
C. it might contribute to identifying the birthplace of the descendant communities
D. it contained genetic clues to the ancestral background of its owner
14. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The owner of the pipe once lived in what is now an area in west Africa.
B. The history of slavery in America is an ongoing topic of concern.
C. African slaves lost their identities when they arrived at the Belvoir plantation.
D. Nancy Daniels, a genealogist was sorry for not being involved in the research.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. DNA from an old pipe throws lights on the origins of the enslaved
B. A new research reveals the origins of enslaved African woman
C. The descendants of enslaved people seek their identities
D. DNA contributes to the breakthrough of a new research
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲了考古学家们从马里兰州发现的一根断裂的陶土管茎中提取DNA，制作了一幅200年前死去的奴隶妇女的画像，而使得研究者们非常兴奋，从而揭示了被奴役者的起源。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段的To be able to get DNA from an object like a pipe stem is quite exciting. Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities.（能够从一个破碎的陶土管茎上提取DNA是相当令人兴奋的，对于其后代来说也是令人兴奋的）可知，第一段的One researcher called the work “a mind-blower”.可知一位研究人员称这项工作“令人振奋”，第四段的The Post the discovery, based on saliva(唾液) absorbed into the clay pipe, was a “mind-blower”.可知这一基于人们从陶土管茎中吸收的唾液的发现是令人兴奋的。综上，第一段和第四段中“a mind-blower”一词指的“一件兴奋的事”故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段To be able to get DNA from an object like a pipe stem is quite exciting．Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities. Through this technology, they’re able to make a connection not only to the site but potentially back to Africa.（能够从像管茎这样的物体中获得DNA是相当令人兴奋的。对于其后代来说也是令人兴奋的。通过这项技术，他们不仅可以与该地点建立联系，还可以回到那时的非洲。）可知，调查组成员Hannes Schroeder对此次陶土管茎中提取到DNA感到非常兴奋，所以根据Hannes Schroeder的说法，陶土管茎具有重要的意义，因为它包含了这份DNA拥有者的祖先的遗传线索，可以帮助生物学家们进行研究。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，为了纪念第一批被奴役的美国人于1619年抵达弗吉尼亚的詹姆斯敦400周年，人们举行了各种活动和仪式，由此可推知美国奴隶制的历史一直是人们关注的话题。而文章并未提及这个陶土管茎的主人曾经的住处，故A项错误；贝尔沃种植园是这个陶土管茎的发现地，那里的奴隶一直生活到1864年，而不是非洲奴隶在到达贝尔沃种植园时失去了他们的身份，故C项错误；再根据倒数第二段的内容可知，只提到了系谱学家Nancy Daniels对此次发现颇感兴奋，而并未提及她因没有参加这项研究而感到遗憾，故D项正确，综上，故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章的第一段的…to build a picture of an enslaved woman who died around 200 years ago and had origins in modern-day Sierra Leone.（考古学家们从马里兰州发现的一根断裂的陶土管茎中提取DNA，制作了一幅200年前死去的奴隶妇女的画像）和第二段的Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔) communities…they’re able to make a connection not only to the site but potentially back to Africa.（能够从一个破碎的陶土管茎上提取DNA相当令人兴奋的，对于其后代来说也是令人兴奋的）可知，本文主要讲了考古学家们从马里兰州发现的一根断裂的陶土管茎中提取DNA，制作了一幅200年前死去的奴隶妇女的画像，而使得研究者们非常兴奋，这次发现对被奴役者的起源起着至关重要的作用，故可知文章最好的标题是A选项（从陶土的一根管茎中提取的DNA揭示了被奴役者的起源。）故选A。

It was a math test, for which I have prepared for a long time. So much importance I attach to it that I even felt a little nervous before a test. My heart began to beat wild immediately I took my seat in the classrooms. Looking at the test paper, our mind went blank. I attempted to focus my attention and it was impossible. So I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, try to calm down. It worked. Gradually I recovered from my calmness. Feeling more relaxing, I picked up my pen and began to write.
【答案】1.have→had
2.I前添加did
3.a→the或that
4.wild→wildly
5.classrooms→classroom
6.our→my
7.and→but
8.try→trying
9.去掉from
10.relaxing→relaxed
【解析】
分析】
这是一篇记叙文。作者参加一次准备了很久了数学测试，作者非常重视这次考试以致于在考场中大脑突然一片空白。最终通过自我调节恢复了冷静放松的故事。
【详解】1.考查动词时态。句意：这是一场我准备了很长时间的数学考试。根据句意可知，prepare动作发生在数学考试之前，即“过去的过去”，故应用过去完成时，have改为had。
2.考查倒装句。在so…that/such…that句型中so，such 位于句首时，句子要部分倒装，根据语境描述过去的事情用一般过去时。故在I前添加助动词did。
3.考查冠词。句意：我如此重视它，以至于在考试前我甚至感到有点紧张。此处特指上文提到的a math test，故应用定冠词the或者指示代词that。故将a改为the/that。
4.考查副词。beat为动词，需要副词修饰，故wild改为wildly。
5.考查名词的数。句意：我一在教室里坐下，我的心就狂跳起来。此处“教室”只有一间，故应用单数形式，classrooms改为classroom。
6.考查形容词性物主代词。句意：看着试卷，我的脑子一片空白。根据前后文，此处指代作者一个人，故our改为my。
7.考查连词。句意：我试图集中注意力，但是不可能。根据句意前后为转折关系，故and改为but。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意：于是我闭上眼睛，深深地吸了一口气，试图平静下来。try在本句中做非谓语与逻辑主语构成主谓关系，故try改为trying。
9.考查介词。recover为及物动词，可以直接跟宾语，故后面不需要介词，故去掉from。
10.考查形容词。句意：我感到放松一些了，便拿起笔开始写。修饰主语I，指人，应用-ed结尾形容词，故relaxing改为relaxed。
