17．We spent a day in the country，picking wild flowers．With the car full of flowers we were going home．On our way back，my wife noticed a cupboard outside a furniture shop．It was tall and narrow．"Buy it，"my wife said at once．"We'll carry it home on the roof rack（行李架）．I've always wanted one like that．"
What could I do？Ten minutes later，I was￡20poorer； and the cupboard was tied on the roof track．It was six feet long and eighteen inches square，quite heavy too．
In the gathering darkness I drove slowly．Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening．The police even stopped traffic to let us through．Carrying furniture was a good idea．
After a time my wife said，"There's a long line of cars behind．Why don't they overtake？I wonder．"In fact a police car did overtake．The offices inside looked at us seriously as they passed．But then，with great kindness，they let us through the rush-hour traffic．The police car stopped at the our village church．One of the officers came to me．
"Right，sir．"he said．"Do you need any more help？"
I was puzzled．"Thank you，sir，"I said．"You have been very kind．I live just on the road．"
He was staring at our car，first at the flowers，then at the cupboard．"Well，well？"he said，laughing．"It's a cupboard you've got there!We thought it was something else"
My wife began to laugh．The truth hit me like a stone between the eyes．I smiled at the officer．"Yes，it's a cupboard，but thanks again．"I drove home as fast as I could．
21．Which of the following statements is True？D
A．The husband desperately wanted the cupboard．

B．carrying a cupboard to the church
C．going to attend a funeral at the church

12．How do you spend your time？To get it，Paul T．Rankin asked sixty-eight individuals to keep an accurate，detailed record of what they did every minute of their waking hours．He discovered that 70percent of their waking time was spent on one thing only-communication．Put that evidence alongside the research findings uncovered by the Human Engineering Laboratories，they discovered that，vocabulary，more than any other factor yet known，predicts financial success．New words make us better thinkers as well as communicators．What better reason for beginning right now to extend your vocabulary？But how？
Hybrid （雜交產(chǎn)生的） corn combines the best qualities of several varieties to ensure maximum productivity．A hybrid approach to vocabulary should，in the same way，ensure maximum results．That's why you should use the CPD formula．
Through Context．When students in a college class were asked what should be done when they came across an unknown word in their reading，84percent said，"Look it up in the dictionary．"If you do，however，you short-circuit the very mental processes needed to make your efforts most productive．
But there's another reason．Suppose someone asks you what the word"fast"means．You answer，"speedy or swift"．But does it mean that in such context as"fast color"or"fast friend"？And if a horse is fast，is it securely tied or galloping at top speed？It could be either．It all depends．On the dictionary？No，on the context．After all，there are over twenty different meanings for"fast"in the dictionary．But the dictionary doesn't tell you which meaning is intended．That's why it makes such good sense to begin with context．
Through Word Parts．Now for the next step．Often unfamiliar words contain one or more parts，which，if recognized，provide definite help with meaning．Take the word"monolithic"for example．Try  to separate the parts．There is the prefix mono-，meaning"one"，and the root-lith，meaning"stone"．Finally，there's the suffix-ic，meaning"consisting of"．Those three parts add up to this definition："consisting of one stone"．
To speed up your use of word parts，you will be introduced to the fourteen most important words in the English language．The prefix and root elements in those few words are found in over 14，000words．With those amazingly useful shortcuts，you can build up vocabulary，not at a snail's pace，one word at a time，but in giant leaps，up to a thousand words at a time．
Through the Dictionary．Now you can see why you should consult the dictionary last，not first．You've looked carefully at the context．You've looked for familiar word parts．Now you play Sherlock Homes．In light of context or word parts，you try to solve a mystery．What exactly does that strange word mean？Only after you go through the mental gymnastics to come up with a tentative （不確定的） definition should you open the dictionary to see if you're right．
You are now personally involved．Your increased interest will lead to a better memory of both word and meaning．It also encourages your development of the habits needed to accelerate your progress．And when you see in black and white the definition you had expected，what a feeling of accomplishment is yours．In that way，the CPD Formula provides the exact approaches for maximum effectiveness．
Well，there it is，your new formula-Context，Parts，Dictionary．Use it!The results will be like the money in the bank．

46．The research findings of the Human Engineering Laboratories show thatB．
A．intelligence and vocabularies are closely related
B．income and vocabularies are closely related
C．people of large vocabularies are bound to succeed in the future
D．vocabulary is of great importance to a student's academic performance
47．What would most college students do while coming across an unfamiliar word？D
A．Seek help from others．
B．Infer the meaning through context．
C．Look for familiar word parts．
D．Consult the dictionary．
48．What does"monolingual"mean according to the passage？A
A．Involving only one language．
B．Using two languages．
C．Speaking or using many languages．
D．Involving more than one language．
49．This passage is meant to teach readers how toD．

7．My dearest son and daughter，
    The story of New Jersey high school student Rachel Canning suing （起訴） her parents for child support and high school education inspired me to write you a little letter．Let me just put this out there：the only way I expect to see you in a court is as a lawyer or a judge．
    There are two things about this case that seem to be disaster．
    First，it's natural for parents and children to argue．I can guarantee that we will disagree．One or both of you will，at some point，scream at the top of your lungs the various ways you hate me．And I won't always li ke you，either．But I will always love you and do everything I can to keep your best interests as my focus，even when I'm so angry．We are family．That means we are as much a part of one another as the flesh，blood and bones in our body．And we all should think about it very deeply instead of breaking that bond．
Second，I'll be honest，no matter how far apart we are on your life choices，your father and I will most certainly pay everything we can for your higher education．But that doesn't mean you deserve it．To be clear，that is a privilege we happily extend （給予） to you-not a right you are born with．And you will have to work hard to earn that privilege．Growing up is hard work．
    If I do my job properly as your mother-and you do yours as my children-you would sooner get a job or two，and find a way to make your dreams come true than go to trial over what you think you have the right to．
 Love always，
  Mom
21．The mother writes this letter because she wants her children toB．
A．be prepared for education
B．learn a lesson from the case
C．take up the legal profession
D．remember Rachel Canning
22．When in disagreement，the mother expects her children not toC．
A．guarantee anything
B．scream out their anger
C．break the family bond
D．forget their best interests
23．The mother thinks of parents'paying for their children's higher education asC．
A．a(chǎn) way in which children realize their dreams
B．a(chǎn) test of whether parents love their children
C．a(chǎn) privilege that children should earn
D．a(chǎn) right that parents are born with．

Paying more for a ticket to see a film in 3D is the cause of annoyance of many a cinema-goer's life．But there may be a（n） （41）H to doing so，as a study has claimed that 3D films exercise the brain and improve short-term functioning in a similar way to brain-training tests．
The research was led by neuroscientist（神經(jīng)科學(xué)家） Dr Patrick Fagan from Goldsmiths University in London．More than 100 people took part in the experiment，where participants watched Disney film Big Hero 6in either（42）A type or RealD 3D．They also carried out a brain-training-style test before and after seeing a part from the film．The test covered memory，reaction time and cognitive （認知的） function，and the results were later（43）I．
According to the research，participants（44）B a 23 percent increase in cognitive processing，as well as an 11percent increase in reaction time．
Dr Fagan said that the results showed enough of an improvement in brain function to suggest that 3D could play a part in improving brain （45）G in the future．"These findings are more significant than you might think，"he said．"It is a fact that people are living longer and there is a（n）（46）J decline in cognitive brain function in old age which can damage future quality of life．There has never been a better time to look at ways to improve brain function．The initial results of this study indicate that 3D films may（47）C play a role in slowing this decline．"
A second part of the experiment involved those watching the film being fitted with headsets（耳機） that（48）K brain activity and this too showed heightened activity when watching 3D．According to the results，participants were seven percent more engaged with what they were watching，adding to the argument that 3D movies are more like watching real-life-something．"A seven percent rise in emotional engagement is （49）E remarkable．Watching in 3D gives the viewer such an enriched and quality experience，as these results show，"he said．"In evolutionary（50）F，the results of both parts of the test certainly make sense.3D films are more likely to heighten the senses and cause emotional arousal-this，in turn，makes the brain run at quicker speeds，"Dr Fagan added．

4．The Process of Ageing
At the age of twelve years，the human body is at its most vigorous．It has yet to reach its full size and strength，and its owner his or her full intelligence； but at this age the possibility of death is least．Earlier，we were infants and young children，and consequently more vulnerable （易受傷的）； later，we shall undergo a progressive loss of our vigour and resistance which，though vague at first，will finally become so steep that we can live no longer，however well we look after ourselves，and however well society，and our doctors，look after us．
This decline in vigour with the passing of time is called ageing．It is one of the most unpleasant discoveries which we all make that we must decline in this way，that if we escape wars，accidents and disease we shall eventually"die of old age"，and that this happens at a rate which differs little from person to person，so that there are heavy odds in favor of our dying between the ages of sixty-five and eighty．Some of us will die sooner，a few will live longer----on into a ninth or tenth decade．But the chances are against it，and there is a virtual limit on how long we can hope to remain alive，however lucky and physically strong we are．
Normal people tend to forget this process unless and until they are reminded of it．We are so familiar with the fact that man ages，that people have for years assumed that the process of losing vigour with time，of becoming more likely to die the older we get，was something self-evident，like the cooling of a hot kettle or the wearing-out of a pair of shoes．They have also assumed that all animals，and probably other organisms such as trees，or even the universe itself，must in the nature of things"wear out"．
Most animals we commonly observe do in fact age as we do，if given the chance to live long enough； and mechanical systems like a wound （上發(fā)條的） watch，or the sun，do in fact an out of energy in accordance with the second law of thermodynamics （熱力學(xué)）．But these are not similar or equivalent to what happens when man ages．A run-down watch is still a watch and can be rewound．An old watch，by contrast，becomes so worn and unreliable that it eventually is not worth mending．But a watch could never repair itself-it does not consist of living parts，only of metal，which wears away by friction （摩擦）．We could，at one time，repair ourselves-well enough，at least，to overcome all but the most instantly fatal illnesses and accidents．Between twelve and eighty years we gradually lose this power，an illness which at twelve would knock us over，at eighty can knock us out，and into our grave．If we could stay as vigorous as we are at twelve，it would take about 700 years for half of us to die，and another 700 for the survivors to be reduced by half again．
74．What can be learned from this passage is thatD．
A．people usually are unhappy when they are reminded of ageing
B．children reach their full intelligence at the age of twelve years
C．people are usually more likely to die at the age of twelve years
D．our first twelve years represent the peak of human development
75．The underlined word"it"in the last sentence of Paragraph Two refers toC．
A．remaining alive until 65                B．dying before 65 or after 80
C．remaining alive after 80                D．dying between 65 and 80
76．What does"ageing"mean according to the passage？B
A．It is a fact that people cannot live any longer．
B．It refers to a gradual loss of vigor and resistance．
C．It is usually a phenomenon of dying at an old age．
D．It is a period when people are easily attacked by illness．
77．What do the examples of the watch refer to in the last paragraph？D
A．Normally people are quite familiar with the ageing process．
B．The law of thermodynamics functions in the ageing process．
C．All animals and other organisms undergo the ageing process．
D．Human's ageing process is different from that of mechanisms．
