Here’s how people use Storybird.‎ Ava is 13 and writes stories for her friends at school and on Storybird. She’s entered 11 competitions, and has 351 followers who love her funny stories.‎ Kate’s son is five and loves poems while her 9-year-old daughter reads adventure and family stories.

Many people suggest changing your attitude (态度) by thinking of something bright and happy.‎ However, scientists from Queen’s University in Canada said that there might be another ‎ way: by walking like a happy person.【出处：21教育名师】‎ ‎“It is not surprising that our mood and the way we feel affects (影响) how we walk, but we want to see whether the way we move also affects how we feel,” explained Nikolaus Troje, the lead scientist, to The Independent.‎ Scientists believed that the way we remember emotional (令人动情的) messages is affected by our mood. Those who suffer from depression (抑郁) remember negative information far more easily than positive messages, especially when the information is about them.‎ In order to prove this, Troje and his team used cameras to observe 47 people walking on the treadmill (跑步机). Half of the people were encouraged to mimic (模仿) a depressive walking style, while the other half moved like a happy person. Walking speed was kept equal for both groups.‎ During the time on the treadmill, the scientists read out a list of positive and negative words, asking people to decide whether or not each word described them well. Afterwards, people were asked to recite as many of the words as they could remember.‎ As expected, those who had been mimicking a depressed walk recalled more negative words than those that had been walking in a happy manner.‎ This finding means that our walk influences the way we process information. And the scientists believe that using a happy walking style could help with treatment for depression.‎ ‎34. Which of the following is closest in the meaning to the underlined word “negative” in the first paragraph?‎ A. sad and inactive B. angry and nervous ‎ C. patient and straight D. lonely and boring ‎ ‎35. What new way did scientists from Queen’s University possibly find to change negative thoughts?‎ A. Doing something happy. B. Walking like a happy person.‎ C. Thinking of something bright. D. Thinking about being a happy person.‎ ‎36. Which of the following is NOT true about Troje’s test?‎ A. The 47 people walked on the treadmill.‎ B. The two groups walked at different speeds.‎ C. Half of the people walked in a happy walking style.‎ D. Another half walked in a depressive walking style.‎ ‎37. According to the story, the finding can help ▲ .‎ A. improve one’s living skills B. record people’s happy memory ‎ C. change a person’s walking habit D. treat patients with depression ‎ C Do you know electricity can change the way we taste food? Don’t feel surprised at the fact. A special electric fork invented by Japanese researchers could make any dish taste salty.‎ According to Hiromi Nakamura, a Post Doctor Researcher at Meiji University of Japan, the technology can be very useful for people with special eating habits. For example, the sick with high blood pressure (高血压) can easily develop a low-salt eating habit and still enjoy delicious food. And with the fork, there’s totally no risk of over-salting their food. Luckily, the voltage (电压) is so small that it is safe to use the fork.‎ The idea of adding electricity to food was first shown to public as an experiment at the Computer Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2012. Nakamura and her team connected a wire (导线) to a 9-volt battery (电池) and passed it through a straw (吸管) placed in a cup of sweet lemonade. Volunteers reported that the lemonade tasted not as sweet as it usually was, because the electricity created the taste of salt.‎ Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to make the electricity reach the food through forks and chopsticks. “The metallic part of the fork is one electrode (电极), and the handle is the other,” Nakamura explained. “When you take a piece of food with the fork and put it in your mouth, you connect the circuit. When you take the fork out of your mouth, you disconnect the circuit. So it actually works as a switch.”‎ Simon Klose, TV presenter of food program Munchies, who recently visited Nakamura to try out the fork himself, then said it was one of the greatest eating experiences he’d ever had. “When I first heard of electric food, it sounded terrible.” he said. He later continued to use the fork to eat pieces of fried chicken, and found that the saltiness greatly increased as the electricity was connected.‎ Nakamura has been eating “electric” food for the past three to four years in order to understand it better. “For me,” she said, “it may seem like we’re cooking but we’re actually working on the human taste.”‎ ‎38. The electric fork may be good for people who  ▲ .‎ A. need to lose weight  B. work as researchers  ‎ C. show interest in physics D. have high blood pressure ‎39. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us ▲ .‎ A. what creates the taste of salt B. how the electric fork works C. where the electric fork was invented D. when the technology was known to public ‎40. What can we learn from the passage? ‎ A. The electric fork can create unreal taste.‎ B. A researcher from the USA invented the electric fork.‎ C. People can use the electric fork by pushing the switch.‎ D. The idea of adding electricity to food was first shown in a TV program.‎ ‎41. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?‎ A. A Famous Researcher. B. An Interesting Experiment.‎ C. A New Invention. D. A Great Eating Experience.‎ D You need some bread and milk. But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley (手推车) full of food. What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?‎ The tricks usually start before you walk in. Outside the supermarket door, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread.‎ Now you’re inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but in some supermarkets, all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.‎ Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products. One new trick is to put red stickers (标签) on products. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers are easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction (降价)! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.‎ There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. For example, ‎ customers often go only to buy milk. So they put it right at the back, forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products. The position of products on each shelf is also important. The most expensive products are usually at eye-level so you see these at once. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids see and even reach them.‎ Except what you see and smell in a supermarket, how about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. It’s so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest it’s better to shop when it’s quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And be careful at the checkouts when you pay for the things you buy. These are sometimes on purpose, to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait for your turn. ‎ So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come out with just the things you want.‎ ‎42. Many supermarkets put red stickers on products to ▲ .‎ A. make them look more beautiful ‎ B. make them different from cheaper ones C. make people think the stickers are for men ‎ D. make people think they could save money ‎43. According to the passage, toys for children are usually placed ▲ .‎ ‎ A. on the lower shelves B. on the back shelves ‎ C. on the front shelves D. on the higher shelves ‎44. What is the passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A. Several rules that every business should follow.21教育网 ‎ B. Several ways supermarkets use to sell more products.‎ C. Some advertisements that make customers buy more.‎ ‎ D. Some advice when people go shopping in supermarkets.‎ ‎45. The writer probably agrees that ▲ .‎ ‎ A. people like soft and slow music in supermarkets ‎ B. things are cheaper in supermarkets than in other shops ‎ C. people should just buy things they need in supermarkets ‎ D. people should leave the supermarket with a trolley full of things 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共60分）‎ 第II卷共36小题，请按要求将答案写在答题纸上。 ‎ 四、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）‎ A. 请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。‎ ‎46.

Everyone wants to be happy. But sometimes, a guest comes in without invitation. It’s unhappiness. Don’t let it get you down. Send it away!‎ When you are happy, the world feels like a better place. As a saying goes: “When you smile, the world smiles with you; when you cry, you cry alone.” Wearing a smile will make you more attractive and help you to win lots of friends. A good mood always gives you hope, which makes trouble and problems easier to deal with.‎ No matter how happy you are, it’s normal to feel angry, sad or gloomy sometimes. Life is full of ups and downs. We can’t change the way life is, but we can do our best to change a bad situation into a good one. To help us do this, it’s good to know some of the factors (因素) that influence happiness.‎ One of the biggest factors is social relationships. People who are close to family and friends are happier than people who don’t have those relationships. Talking and sharing is a good way to relax and build confidence. Knowing someone is there for you will make you braver and more outgoing.‎ Another factor is work or school. If you enjoy school, even if you have lots of homework or extra classes, you will still feel that your school life is meaningful and happy. But if you hate school, your negative (消极的) attitude may cause you to feel bored and upset that you have to do so much work.‎ A third factor is your attitude (态度) towards life. How do you feel if you fail in an exam? Maybe you think it’s unfair because you always study hard and should have got a good mark. You can’t stop blaming (责备) yourself. Or, maybe you accept it. You go through the paper carefully, find out why you made stupid mistakes, and tell yourself, “Take it easy! I’ll do better next time!” Your attitude makes a big difference.‎ Do you smile a lot or wear a long face most of the time?‎ ‎76. How many factors can influence happiness in the passage?‎ 请将答案写在答题纸上 ‎77. What will make you more charming and give you hope?‎ 请将答案写在答题纸上 ‎78. What can we do when we can’t change the way life is?‎ ‎ 请将答案写在答题纸上 ‎79. How will you like your school life if you enjoy school?‎ 请将答案写在答题纸上 ‎80. How do you make yourself happy in your daily life?
