分析 本文是學(xué)生熟悉的校園生活，描寫了主人公對音樂由最初的排斥甚至不屑到熱愛的心路歷程．

解答 36-40 DDACB        
36．D  考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合句意，Gabriel 同情地看著那些音樂學(xué)生帶著沉重的樂器箱在學(xué)校里艱難（struggle）行進．travel 意為"旅行，移動"，march 意為"行軍，前進"，pace 意為"踱步"，語氣上不如 struggle 能體現(xiàn)出"可憐的感覺"，均不符合文意．故正確答案為D．
37．D  考查動詞短語辨析．結(jié)合文意，在練習(xí)時間出現(xiàn)（turn up）在學(xué)校．rise up 意為"升起，起義"，come up 意為"走近，發(fā)生，被提出"，drive up 意為"抬高，開車到…"，均不符合文意．故正確答案為D．
38．A  考查連詞辨析  結(jié)合文意，音樂系的學(xué)生們要在其他學(xué)生出現(xiàn)在學(xué)校之前（before）練習(xí)數(shù)個小時．There 指代 school，表示音樂系的學(xué)生們很早到校練習(xí)．a(chǎn)fter 意為"在…之后"，until 意為"直到…"，since 意為"自從…"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為A．
39．C 考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合上文，Gabriel 一點也不想卷入音樂學(xué)習(xí)中．以及后文提到"as he hated getting to school extra early"，因為他討厭過早到校．因此可以推測文意為他向自己發(fā)誓避免（avoid）音樂．betray 意為"背叛"，accept 意為"接受"，appreciate 意為"欣賞"．均不符合文意． 故正確答案為C．
40．B  考查副詞辨析  結(jié)合后文，Gabriel 在音樂課上隨意地彈了鋼琴，被老師發(fā)現(xiàn)其擅長音樂．與前文提到 Gabriel 討厭音樂形成了轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，因此 however 意為"然而"符合文意．Therefore 意為"因此"表遞進，thus 意為"因此"表遞進，moreover 意為"此外"表遞進．均不符合文意．故正確答案為B．
 41-45 ADCBD   
41．A  考查名詞辨析． 結(jié)合文意可知，音樂課應(yīng)該是學(xué)校課程的一部分（part）．basis 意為"基礎(chǔ)"，由于后文已經(jīng)說了 standard curriculum，因此 basis 導(dǎo)致句意重復(fù)，邏輯不通．nature 意為"自然"，spirit 意為"精神"，均不符合文意．故正確答案為A．
42．D 考查形容詞辨析．結(jié)合文意可知，他隨意地彈奏著鋼琴，發(fā)現(xiàn)很容易（easy）就彈奏出了曲調(diào)．complicate 意為"使復(fù)雜化"，safe 意為"安全的"，confusing 意為"混亂的，使人困惑的"，均不符合文意．故正確答案為D．
43．C  考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，帶著不安的情緒他意識到他實際上享受彈鋼琴，與后文 Gabriel 努力隱藏他的快樂形成呼應(yīng)．miss 意為"想念；錯過"，dislike 意為"不喜歡"，deny 意為"否認"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為C．
44． B 考查近義詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián)．Gabriel不想讓音樂老師看到自己表露出來的很明顯的喜悅之情，transparent指（謊言、借口）易看穿的；obvious明顯的，顯然的，故選B．
45．D  考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，他努力隱藏來自徘徊著（wander）傾聽的音樂老師的快樂．run 意為"跑"，jog 意為"慢跑"，jump 意為"跳"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為D．
46-50 AACBC
46．A 考查上下文串聯(lián)．根據(jù)"and suggested that Gabriel go into the music store-room to see if any of the instruments"可知，老師讓Gabriel挑選樂器，說明他彈得不夠好，鋼琴不太適合他，因此是因果關(guān)系．故選A．
47．A 考查近義詞辨析和上下文串聯(lián)．老師認為Gabriel有著很好辨音能力，并建議他去挑一件稱心的樂器．
ear辨音力，靈敏的聽力；taste鑒賞力，欣賞力，指對作品的欣賞能力．由于Gabriel沒有經(jīng)過專業(yè)的訓(xùn)練，不能說他有很好的音樂鑒賞能力，taste不符合語境．故選A．
48．C  考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，老師告訴Gabriel 有很好的辨音能力并且建議他去音樂商店看看有沒有吸引（appealed to）他的樂器．occur to意為"突然想起"，take to 意為"開始喜歡"，為主動的"喜歡"，hold to 意為"抓住"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為C．
49．B  考查名詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，他決定給大提琴一個機會（chance）．change 意為"改變"，mission 意為"任務(wù)"，function 意為"功能"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為B．
50．C  考查副詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，開始練習(xí)時，他非常隨意地（casually）對待它．但是他很快發(fā)現(xiàn)他熱愛演奏這個樂器并且堅定的練習(xí)．由 but 可知前后句為對比關(guān)系，seriously 意為"認真地；嚴重地"，proudly 意為"驕傲地"，admitted 意為"公認的"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為C．
 51-55 ADBBC  
51．A  考查動詞辨析  結(jié)合文意，并且很堅定地（committed）練習(xí)大提琴以至于在幾個月內(nèi)演奏的相當(dāng)?shù)暮茫畊sed 意為"習(xí)慣的；二手的"，limited 意為"有限的"，admitted 意為"公認的；被承認的"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為A．
52．D  考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，這意味著（mean）他要到校很早．This 指代前文提到的 Gabriel 練習(xí)大提琴．stress意為"強調(diào)；使緊張"，prove 意為"證明；檢驗"，show 意為"展示"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為D．
53．B  考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，拖著（drag）他沉重的樂器箱穿過校園．與文章第一段相呼應(yīng)．push 意為"推"，lift 意為"舉起"，rush 意為"趕；搶"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為B．
54．B 考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，非音樂生憐憫的（pitying）看法．與文章第一段相呼應(yīng)．a(chǎn)dmire 意為"欽佩；贊美"，annoy 意為"騷擾；使煩惱"，tease 意為"取笑；戲弄"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為B．
55．C 考查動詞短語辨析．結(jié)合文意，他已經(jīng)把非音樂生憐憫的看法拋在身后（behind）．leave over 意為"剩下"，leave aside 意為"擱置"，leave out 意為"忽略，忘記"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為C．

點評 做完形填空時，要始終抓住文章本身，聯(lián)系"雙語境"來判斷，既大語境--全文中心和基調(diào)，小語境--空格前后句子所構(gòu)成的語境；再根據(jù)前有伏筆后有呼應(yīng)的思路來做題．

9．Over the last 70 years．researchers have been studying happy and Unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference．Our feelings of well-being at any moment are determined to a certain degree by genes．However of all the factors，wealth and age are the top two．
Money can buy a degree of happiness．But once you can afford to feed，clothe and house yourself，each extra dollar makes less and less difference．
Researchers find that，on average，wealthier people are happier．But the link between money and happiness is complex．In the past half-century，average income has sharply increased in developed countries，yet happiness levels have remained almost the same．Once your basic needs are met，money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends，neighbors and colleagues．
"Dollars buy Status（社會地位），and status makes people feel better，"conclude some experts，which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways-scientists or actors，for example-may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs．
In a research，Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires-not just for money，but for friends，family，job，health-rose furthest beyond what they already had，tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap（差距）．Indeed，the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than income alone．"The gap measures just blow away the only measures of income，"says Michalos．
Another factor that has to do with happiness is age．Old age may not be so bad．"Given all the problems of aging，how could the elderly be more satisfied？"asks Professor Laura Carstensen．
Why are old people happier？Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it，or they're more realistic about their goals，only setting ones that they know they can achieve．But Carstensen thinks that with time running out，older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that don't．
"People realize not only what they have，but also that what they have cannot-last forever，"she says．"A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of 85，for example，may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20．"

12．According to the passage，the feeling of happinessD．
A．has little to do with wealth
B．increases gradually with age
C．is measured by desires
D．is determined partly by genes
13．Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobsC．
A．make them feel much better
B．provide chances to make friends
C．improve their social position
D．satisfy their professional interests
14．Aged people are more likely to feel happy because they are moreB．
A．optimistic      B．practical      C．successful     D．emotional
15．Professor Alex Michalos found that people feel less happy ifA．
A．the gap between reality and desire is bigger
B．they have a stronger desire for friendship
C．their income is below their expectation
D．the hope for good health is greater．

15．Since quitting can start feelings such as guilt and shame，we often do everything possible to avoid it．"We're taught from our earlist days that if you quit something．It means you're a failure，"says counseling psychologist Will Meek．He，however，suggests we view quitting differently．
Quitting is like deciding to rearrange a room：you've grown comfortable with the status，and it can be hard to picture the end result or even see why change is necessary．And yet，there's the upsetting feeling that you're no longer entirely satisfied with your current circumstances，perhaps even that you've stopped making progress．While it's not out of the question for feeling or regret to surface after a major refit，leaving a position，project or situation can reveal exciting possibilities，making you feel inspired and renewed．
Quitting，often happens in situations where we're unhappy，fearful or have determined we have no other choice，factors that can have opposing effects on our health．Perhaps you find your work unfulfilling，or you've jumped into a new relationship before you're ready-and，as a result，you're operating under intense pressure．"If stress is enduring and not managed well，it can start to take a toll．"says Meek．According to the American Psychological Association，long-term，ongoing stress can increase the risk for high blood pressure and heart attack，so walking away from whatever is causing it can deliver significant physical and emotional health benefits．"We often see a reduction in the stress hormone cortisol（應(yīng)激激素皮質(zhì)醇），which can lower blood pressure and may even decrease the heart rate，"says Dr Alex Lickerman，a GP and expert on developing mental adaptability．
Leaving situations that fail to bring you joy can leave you with sufficient time to explore where your heart is truly leading you．In a study that was published in 1999，then Harvard University professor Hermina Ibarra looked at how bankers tried different roles that required new skill sets-someone who spent a lot of time dealing with computers，for instance，was asked to take on personal interactions．Subjects were especially drawn to acting out a version of their future solves through‘imitation strategies'-an approach they compared to‘trying on different clothes，'Mark Franklin，the president of CareerCyles，suggests a similar approach as a way to figure out what your true desires might be in your post-quitting life and foresee your future self．"Pretend to be a certain kind of person，or go and meet others who are doing what you want to do．"he says，"Try it on，see how it feels and decide if it's a good fit for you．"It may not feel like it at the time，but just moving on from a situation that's not quite right can help you get back on track．

63．It can be inferred from paragraph 2that quitting may bring us feelings of being bothC．
A．guilty and ashamed   
B．stupid and enthusiastic
C．troubled and hopeful 
D．inspired and determined
64．The phrase"take a toll"（paragraph 3）can be best replaced by"D"．
A．develop mental adaptability  
B．bring about changes
C．keep up the pressure        
D．have a bad effect
65．An approach suggested by Mark Franklin similar to‘trying on different clothes'is forA．
A．helping people find what truly suits them in career
B．telling capable employees from inadequate ones
C．training employees to acquire different working skills
D．providing people with opportunities to have a role play
66．It can be concluded from the passage thatD．

5．Dubai：An Indian man killed himself in Dubai by throwing himself under a train after his employer refused him the right to return home，newspapers in the Gulf emirate reported on Thursday．A driverless Dubai Metro （地鐵） train struck the man on a track on Monday，the Gulf News daily said．"His body was left beyond recognition and police took two days to identify him，"it reported．
"The 36-year-old had used an emergency fire exit to access the track，"the paper quoted Dubai police chief General Khamis al-Mazeina as saying，adding he was thought to have been under the influence of alcohol．A friend of the victim who had been in Dubai since 2010 told police the man was depressed and unhappy because he wanted to go back home but the sponsor （保薦人），for no clear reasons，was not letting him go．
 The Indian man?s work visa had been cancelled after he charged his employer．Under the sponsorship system （保薦制度） for foreign workers in the United Arab Emirates，employers take possession of their passports．
"We are looking for the reason why the company delayed sending the man back home，"Mazeina said．
The suicide is the first of its kind reported since the Dubai Metro began operations in September 2009．Platforms in metro stations are protected by glass doors that slide open only when a train is there．
 The UAE and other Gulf countries have come under repeated criticism from human rights groups over their treatment of millions of foreign workers，mostly South Asians．The watchdogs have particularly criticized the sponsorship system，still in force in most Gulf states，by which workers must be sponsored by their employer．
 
56．What's the best title of the article？A
A．Indian denied returning home jumps under Dubai train
B．The sponsorship system should be cancelled
C．Measures taken to avoid train accidents
D．Death caused by depression
57．Why was the man killed himself？D
A．Because he lost his passport．
B．Because he had a spiritual disease．
C．Because he had no home to go back．
D．Because he was refused to go back home．
58．What's the root cause of the man's death？C
A．The driver of the train．
B．The poor traffic system．
C．The sponsorship system．
D．The poor working condition．
59．Who kept the passport of the man？B
A．The man himself．
B．The man's employer．

The intelligent bicycle runs on electricity．Its seat shakes when other cyclists approach from behind，while the handlebars do the same when obstacles appear ahead to inform cyclists to pay attention to the danger．It also has a cradle （置物架） in which a computer can be inserted （插入），to wirelessly connect and"talk"to the bicycle through a particular application．The computer also flashes a bright signal if there is an approaching obstacle in the bicycle's path，like a tree，or if another cyclist comes up from behind intending to pass．
A commercial-available bicycle is expected to be on the market in the next two years and should sell for between 1，700 euros to 3，200 euros per bicycle．It weighs about 55pounds but researchers are working on making the on-board systems smaller．
‘‘Accidents often happen when cyclists look behind them or get frightened when they ar passed at high speed，"said Maurice Kwakkernaat，one of the scientists involved in the project，"The on-board system technology has already been at work in the automotive （自動的） industry"．
"More and more elderly people are using a bicycle，not only for short distances，but also for longer distances，"Dutch Environment Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen said，"This type of bicycle is truly needed in the Netherlands because it will help us bring down the number of elderly people who are injured every year and allow them to continue enjoying cycling，"she said．

29．What does the text mainly talk about？A
A．The newly-invented bicycle can warn of danger．
B．The intelligent computer runs on electricity．
C．More elderly people enjoy electronic devices．
D．The means of transportation in the Netherlands．
30．When a car appears ahead，the intelligent bicycle willC．
A．stop by itself
