But sometimes making good food choices can be tough. Now, there are apps that can help people learn about the food they eat to improve their diets and their dining-out experience.‎ OpenTable OpenTable helps people choose restaurants when they want to go out to eat. OpenTable is a free service that shows users restaurant availability based on where and when they want to dine. OpenTable gives users points when they make reservations. The points can add up to discounts on restaurant visits.‎ When users make reservations through OpenTable, they get an email confirmation. They can also add the reservation directly to their electronic calendar.‎ Max McCalman’s Cheese & Wine Pairing App Wine and cheese can be a great combination. But which wines go best with which cheeses?‎ Max McCalman’s Cheese & Wine Pairing App can help. It provides information about hundreds of different cheeses and suggests wines to pair with each. Max McCalman’s Cheese & Wine Pairing App is free for iPhone and iPad.‎ Epicurious app Epicurious is a free app and website to help users find recipes and become better cooks. The app has more than 30,000 recipes and can create a shopping list based on the ingredients in a recipe.‎ Users can search by ingredients or by vegetables that are in season where they live. The app also rates recipes for popularity and other qualities. Users also provide advice about making the recipes. ‎ Calorific What does 200 calories look like? It can be hard to picture. For example, 200 calories of broccoli（西兰花）and 200 calories of cake look very different! The Calorific app shows just that. Calorific provides images of 200 calories worth of food. ‎ The app also provides the weight of each food pictured. The app is free for iPad and iPhone. ‎ Harvest An app called Harvest informs users about seasonal fruits and vegetables in different areas. ‎ This can be helpful in planning meals.

It tells how to keep food fresh longer. ‎ B Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around ‎ them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers（低头族）.‎ Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities(身份) bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.‎ Although the ending sounds overstated, the damage phubbing can bring is real.‎ Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying. “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.‎ But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.‎ It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.‎ ‎24. For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Paragragh2?‎ A. To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.‎ B. To advertise the cartoon made by students.‎ C. To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.‎ D. To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.‎ ‎25. Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?‎ A. His social skills could be affected.‎ B. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.‎ C. He will cause the destruction of the world.‎ D. He might get separated from his friends and family.‎ ‎26. Which of the following may be the author’s attitude towards phubbing?‎ A. Supportive. B. Opposed. C. Optimistic. D. Objective.‎ ‎27. What may the passage talk about next?‎ A. Advice on how to use a cell phone. B. People addicted to phubbing.‎ C. Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing. D. Consequences of phubbing.‎ C Have you ever considered why you begin yawning too when you see someone yawn? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it's because we have mirror neurons (神经元）in our brains.‎ Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate it whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how, we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.‎ Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball).‎ Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.‎ Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with even more information regarding how humans behave and interact. Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物）for neuroscience of what Einstein's theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does — well, perhaps you'll understand why.‎ ‎28. Mirror neurons can explain _____‎ A. why we smile when we see someone else smile B. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late C. why we cry when we are hurt D. why we cough when we suffer from a cold ‎29. The underlined word "triggered" in the third paragraph probably means “_____’’.‎ A. built up B. broken up C. set off D. cut off ‎30. We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons _____.‎ A. determine our knowledge and language abilities B. control human physical actions and feelings C. result in bad behavior and social disorders D. relate to human behavior and interaction ‎31. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. Ways‎ to find mirror neurons. B. Problems of mirror neurons.‎ C. Functions of mirror neurons. D. Existence of mirror neurons.‎ D What’s small, buzzes here and there and visits flowers? If you said bees or hummingbirds, you got it. You wouldn’t be the first if you mixed the two up. Now a group of researchers even say we should embrace our history of considering the two together in the same group. The way scientists study bees could help them study hummingbird behavior, too.‎ Scientists first compared the two back in the 1970s when studying how animals search for food. The idea is that animals use a kind of math to make choices in order to minimize the work it takes to earn maximum rewards. Researchers at the time focused on movement rules, like the order in which they visited flowers, and where flowers were located relative to others. It was “almost like an algorithm(算法)” for efficient searching, said David Pritchard, a biologist at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Hummingbirds and bees had similar solutions.‎ As the field of animal cognition(认知) appeared, hummingbird and bee research parted. Neuroscientists and behavioral ecologists developed ways to study bee behavior in naturalistic settings. Hummingbird researchers compared hummingbirds to other birds and borrowed methods from psychology to study their ability to learn in the lab. To be fair, hummingbirds and bees differ. For example, hummingbirds have more advanced eyes and brains than bees. Honeybees and ‎ bumblebees are social; hummingbirds typically aren’t.‎ But however they perceive(感知) or process information, they both experience similar information, Dr. Pritchard said. In day-to-day searching for food, for example, hummingbirds may rely on more of a bee’s-eye view than a bird’s-eye view. Like other birds, they rely on landmarks, distances and directions to make maps when travelling long distances, but they don’t use these cues to find flowers. Move a flower just an inch or so away from where a hummingbird thought it was and it will hover over the flower’s original location. Dr. Pritchard is investigating if, like bees, hummingbirds engage in view matching — hovering, scanning snapshots of a place to its memory and using those as references later. ‎ ‎32. What is the center of research on hummingbirds and bees in the 1970s?‎ A. Memory. B. Movement rules. C. Reward calculating. D. Information processing.‎ ‎33. Which subject’s research methods were adopted to study the learning ability of Hummingbirds?‎ A. Math. B. Biology. C. Ecology. D. Psychology.‎ ‎34. How do researchers find out that hummingbirds are not like birds?‎ A. By setting them free. B. By moving flowers.‎ C. By matching view. D. By making maps.‎ ‎35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?‎ A. Hummingbirds and Bees B. Hummingbirds in the Lab C. New Trends in Studying Bees D. Thinking of Hummingbirds as Bees 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的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。‎ Travel Abroad Do’s and Don’ts ‎ Planning a trip abroad with family or friends this summer break? Here are a few travel tips to keep you safe.‎ ‎1. If you want to make your trip safe and easy, plan ahead. 36 The less you have to carry around, the more quickly you can move. Besides, planning ahead will save your time and make sure you don't miss the best things.‎ ‎2. 37 No one wants bad things to happen but you'll feel better when you're ready for them if they do.

As for school activities, students mainly hold two views.‎ Many students are very enthusiastic about school activities because they think that learning from textbooks is not their only task and they should take every chance to get some practical knowledge. Besides, after long hours’ study, they can relax themselves by practicing in school activities.‎ However , a large group of students take little interest in them and spend most of their time on study. They believe that they should make full use of time to study and that school activities have nothing to do with their further development. ‎ As far as I am concerned, I prefer the first view. On the other hand,we can learn a great deal from other students we meet in activities. Furthermore, modern society requires many qualities of young students, so “book worms” can’t keep up with the times.‎
