You then get a new pair of ‎ glasses, and you move on with your life. And then comes your next exam the next year, and your prescription goes higher again. When will it stop? Will you be living your life with vision that gets poorer and poorer?‎ There are many other choices for you, such as eye surgeries and laser therapies（激光治疗）, but do you really want to go through with these dangerous and expensive operation? Are the risks worth it? For many, it’s not.‎ Introducing an amazing breakthrough in eye care and considered to be the very solution to eyesight improvement—Quantum Vision System.‎ What is this amazing Breakthrough?‎ The System promises to recover your vision at the speed of light, or more exactly in at least 7 days. It is an e-book that can be downloaded onto any electronic equipment such as a personal computer or a smartphone, so you get access to the guide from anywhere and at any time you wish.‎ The e-book is created by Dr. William Kemp, who completely transformed his clinic and practice when he discovered this scientific breakthrough.‎ Inside the e-book are several step-by-step instructions, guides, and videos, explaining the very causes of poor eyesight and what you can do to recover yourself. The program uses 100% all-natural methods to help you achieve a perfect 20/20 vision in a matter of days.‎ The program costs only $37, which you can buy online from their official website.

When they influence you on your decision or action, it’s called peer pressure. All of us, at some point in our lives, have had to deal with peer pressure. The need to follow the crowd and do what majority of us are doing forces us to take up activities which we wouldn’t otherwise.‎ ‎ Recent studies have shown that peer pressure might cause an upside to you. It can make you reflect on your actions and make changes to your ways to become a better one. Observing others working hard to reach their goals will definitely encourage you to make a great effort to achieve something positive. When a teen knows that his teammates are practicing hard to become better players then it will directly affect his own performance. He will put in twice the time and energy to raise the level of his game and ensure he has a place on the team.‎ ‎ Having a group that brings positive peer pressure can also help you pick up healthy habits that can shape both your personality and your future. The motivation to do well because of pressure from your peers can actually become inspiration. For example, when a child knows that some of his friends regularly read storybooks, he may get into the habit of reading. Seeing that his friends exercise daily, even he may take up the habit and adopt it in life. ‎ ‎ Just as some influences can be positive, some can be negative too. Peer pressure ‎ sometimes can make a dip in your self-confidence. Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, or because they worry that others might make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others go along because they are curious to try something new. The idea that “everyone’s doing it” can influence them to leave their better judgment behind. Besides, peer pressure can distance you from your family and friends. It is common for teenagers to think that nobody understands them and that the whole world is against them. The influence of peer pressure is such that it draws them completely away from their family and friends who mean well. They just shut themselves off and fall into bad company.‎ ‎ It’s likely that you’ve experienced the effect of peer pressure in different areas, ranging from the clothes you wear to the music you listen to. Sometimes it can be hard to resist and you may feel forced to do something you’re uncomfortable with. So being aware of and carefully choosing the influence of peers that will lead to healthy and happy experiences is a lifelong process.‎ ‎59. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A. A quick reaction. B. A positive effect. ‎ C. A serious challenge. D. A potential conflict.‎ ‎60. According to the author, peer pressure can get teenagers to ______.‎ A. become less self-confident B. provide a model for teammates C. identify characteristics of different habits D. improve relationship with family members ‎61. What does the author think of peer pressure? ‎ A. It makes no difference to teens’ judgment.‎ B. It influences teens to fit into various lifestyles.‎ C. It helps teens to relieve the uncomfortable feeling.‎ D. It seems like a common phenomenon among teens.‎ C Want to improve your math skills without working hard? Simply zap (击打) the brain ‎ with a weak current of electricity and then, all your problems will be solved! At least that's the claim being made by a team of British scientists from London's Oxford University.‎ The main aim of the experiment, conducted on a group of student volunteers from Oxford University and University College London, was to test if parts of the brain could be shocked into getting it to work better with numbers.‎ To test this, 15 students, divided into three groups, were asked to solve the same two mathematical problems every day for a week. The problems, which involved identifying the larger of two numbers and plotting one on a number line, were made a little more challenging by replacing the numbers 19 with symbols.‎ However, before starting the test, two of the groups were subjected to a 20minute session of a light electric current to the parietal lobe, which the scientists believe is the brain's number cruncher (能迅速运算者). For the first group the current flow was passed right to left, while for the second it was transmitted left to right. The third group received no help at all.‎ The group that got zapped right to left seemed to show an amazing improvement in their math skills. However, the ones that got zapped left to right were reduced to the level of almost sixyear old! The results for the people who got no help were somewhere in between.‎ While scientists are not sure why the direction of the current would make such a difference, they believe that zapping it from the right side, seemed to turn up the activity of the brain cells to math, while going the other way turned or closed them down. Luckily, the impact is expected to last for only six months!‎ While this is great news, do not fire your math tutor yet. That's because the research, no matter how successful, is not being done to aid lazy students, but to help people who suffer from dyscalculia (计算障碍), a disease which makes people unable to cope with simple daytoday numerical issues, like counting change or figuring out their expenses.‎ ‎62. In which time order was the experiment carried out?‎ a．Divide the students into groups.‎ b．Test the students with problems.‎ c．Give some students some electric zapping.‎ A. a，b，c B. a，c，b C. b，a，c D. c，a，b ‎63. From the passage, we can infer that ________．‎ A. the direction of zapping the brain is very important B. the impact of zapping the brain will last forever C. scientists don't know how to zap the brain correctly D. people with dyscalculia can't recognize numbers ‎64. What is the aim of the experiment?‎ A. To help students to improve their math grades.‎ B. To test which part of the brain controls calculation.‎ C. To help people who suffer from a certain disability.‎ D. To study whether a light electric current will damage students' brain.‎ ‎65. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Dyscalculia is no longer a problem B. A good way to improve your math skills C. Benefit from zapping the brain D. Improve math skills by zapping the brain 第II卷(共45分)‎ 第四部分 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) ‎ 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最恰当的词。‎ We all need to feel understood, recognized and affirmed by our friends, family and romantic partners. We all need to find our tribe.‎ Research has shown that among the benefits that come with being in a relationship or group, feeling accepted is regarded as the most important driver of meaning. When other people think you matter and treat you as if you matter, you believe you matter, too.‎ Though we all share a need to belong, in the first decades of the 20th century, many influential psychologists and physicians did not acknowledge this fundamental ‎ aspect of human nature. The idea that children needed parental love and care to live a full and meaningful life was not only considered medically dangerous, but also dismissed as immoral and disgusting.‎ As behavioral psychology came into fashion and academic psychologists turned their attention to child-raising, this view shifted and they began to examine and affirm the vital importance of attachment in early life. They discovered that people, whatever their age, needed more than food and shelter to live full and healthy lives.‎ But, sadly, many of us lack close ties. At a time when we are more connected digitally than ever before, rates of social isolation are rising. The results of an Age UK poll published recently suggest that half a million people over the age of 60 usually spend each day alone, and it's not unusual for another half a million people to go without someone to speak to for five or six days. All these figures reveal more than a rise in loneliness—they reveal a lack of meaning in people's lives. In surveys, we list our close relationships as our most important sources of meaning. Research shows that people who are lonely and isolated feel their lives are less meaningful.‎ While close relationships are critical for living a meaningful life, they are not the only important social bonds we need to cultivate. Psychologists have also discovered the value of small moments of intimacy. “High-quality connections”, as one researcher calls them, are positive, short-term interactions between two people when a couple holds hands on a walk or when two strangers have an empathetic (移情作用的) conversation on a plane. High-quality connections have the potential to unlock meaning in our interactions with acquaintances, colleagues and strangers. We can't control whether someone will make a high-quality connection with us, but we can all choose to start one. We can say hello to a stranger on the street rather than look away. We can choose to value people rather than devalue them. We can invite people to belong.‎ Passage outline Supporting details u Everyone hopes to develop a 6‎ The need to belong ‎6  of belonging in a group.‎ u People's self-respect is 67  by other people's opinion.‎ The changing ‎ ‎  68   to belonging u Many famous experts in the first decades of the 20th  century   69  that people had the need to belong.‎ u Experts came to realize that people,  70  of their age,  needed attachment to enjoy full and healthy lives.‎ Consequences of ‎　71    close ties u Many people are cut off from the world and feel   72   .‎ u People who do not have enough close relationships find  their lives are less   73   .‎ Another way to ‎ meet the need u High-quality connections make a 74 in helping satisfy our need to belong.‎ u We should　75    to make a high-quality connection.‎ 第五部分单词拼写 (共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分)‎ 请根据所读内容，并结合中文或英文提示在句子的空格里填入最恰当的单词。‎ 76.
