To prevent crowding on the mountain, some have suggested limiting the total number of climbers permitted per season and the size of each team to no more than ten members. Others are skeptical. “That will not happen,” says New Zealander Guy Cotter, 50, owner of Adventure Consultants, which has led 19 expeditions to Everest (珠穆朗玛峰). “Everest is big business for Nepal, and it will never turn down the money.”

Another way to make the mountain safer is with technology, says Conrad Anker, 50, who led our expedition in 2012. The mountain is already high-tech—everyone at Base Camp has access to a cell phone or the Internet—but last summer in a meeting with the Nepalese ministry, Anker advised something new: identification cards issued with every climber.

“The Everest ID would contain data that could save the life of a climber or Sherpa,” Anker explains. It would have the climber’s photo, of course, but more importantly, it would also have a QR code—a type of bar code. “Scanned with a smart phone, the QR code would show information such as age, experience, health history and emergency phone numbers.” Anker says that bureaucrats() just looked at him with blank faces when he tried to explain the benefits of the ID.

Despite all the problems on the mountain, Everest still stands alone. I’ll never forget the breathtaking view from our place at Camp III, clouds rolling up the Western valley. I’ll always treasure the memory of climbing with friends.

Such moments are the reasons why climbers keep coming back to Everest. It’s not simply about reaching the top but about showing respect for the mountain and enjoying the journey. Now it’s up to us to restore a sense of sanity(理智) and safety to the top of the world.

4. Why do some people want to limit the number of climbers?

A. Nepal won’t allow more climbers.

B. The top of the mountain is high and dangerous. C. Climbers are not environment-friendly. D. Crowding makes the mountain not safe.

5. Which of the following statements about the Everest ID is NOT true? A. It has the climber’s photo. B. It has a QR code.

C. It has all the information of a climber. D. Bureaucrats seem to have no interest in it.

6. In the face of the problems on the mountain, climbers . A. take the problems for granted

B. should take safety into consideration C. decide to get the Everest ID D. like to challenge any danger

7. What can we learn from the passage? A. Anker’s advice has been adopted. B. The Everest ID shouldn’t be issued. C. Everest brings in lots of money for Nepal. D. The author suggests climbing less frequently.

My poor mother would be the first to tell you that having a food scientist for a daughter was not always easy.

One weekend visit home, I stood in her kitchen and surveyed her food preparation techniques. “You know,” I said, “there’s no nutrition left when you overcook the vegetables like that.” She smiled at me patiently and said, “Oh my! It’s a miracle (奇迹) that after all these years, my kid even survived at all!”

Survive we did. Mom’s meals were simple but well-balanced. My sisters and I grew up with a variety of food on our family table. When it came to vegetables, we ate almost everything—from green chilies to turnip greens.

On school mornings, Mom switched on our bedroom light to silently tell us it was time to get up. Then she’d rush to the kitchen to make a nourishing (有营养的) breakfast we’d eat before heading out the door.

In the summer, Mom always had fresh tomatoes and plenty of zucchini in her garden and on the dinner table. And I learned to love green beans from visits to our cousins. My aunt would sit me on

the back porch (门廊) and have me take the ends off fresh beans. Years later I would learn that kids are more likely to accept foods when they are involved with them in some way.

One thing surprised me at the time but became very clear after I had a child myself. My mother LOVED it when I took the initiative (主动) to prepare a meal. She went back to work when I was in high school, so I was often the first one home. One day, after I’d finished homework and taken care of the dogs and horses, I decided to try a recipe from one of Mom’s cookbooks.

It wasn’t a perfect meal. But when she got home and saw the table set and dinner ready, she was so happy. That was an enjoyable moment for me.

Now I understand that food is only one way we receive nutrition. We also need soul food, and my mom did a good job with that. She taught me humility (谦逊), thankfulness and unconditional love.

I hope I could cook a meal for her this year. I’d even try not to overcook the vegetables.

8. What can we know about the author’s mother? A. She didn’t get on well with the author. B. She paid great attention to nutrition. C. She was a patient and loving mother. D. She often asked the author to help her cook.

9. What does the underlined word “that” refer to? A. Seeing her mother was happy. B. Being able to cook on her own. C. Finishing her homework early. D. Taking care of the dogs and horses.

10. What does the author say in the second-to-last paragraph? A. She doesn’t care about nutrition anymore. B. She is grateful for her mom’s teaching and love. C. She thinks soul food is more important than real food. D. She is sorry for criticizing her mom’s cooking.

11. What is the main purpose of this article?

A. To encourage readers to cook their families a meal. B. To teach readers how to cook nutritious food.

C. To stress the importance of having meals with our families. D. To share the author’s thoughts about her mom’s cooking.

D

Art has always been a polarizing (分化的) subject. Some people like realism, others like abstract. But do you know why some people value art in the millions, while others see the same piece as little more than a child’s finger painting?

Many consider art to be quite random in terms of our likes and dislikes. But according to new

Word精品文档，可编辑，欢迎下载

research, there may actually be a scientific reason behind our fondness for certain works. The answer lies in how a person’s brain breaks down the visuals (视觉效果) of a painting combined with their judgment.

To prove their theory, neuroscientist (神经科学家) Kiyohito Iigaya and his team from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) gathered more than 1,300 volunteers and asked them to rate 825 different paintings from four different art genres (类型).

After analyzing the data, scientists found that the same groups of people tended to prefer similar aspects of the same paintings. These characteristics were then grouped into “low-level” features like color and blending, and “high-level” features like the emotion behind the painting.

From this experiment, Caltech’s system was then able to predict an individual’s specific taste in art and organize different works into one group, according to the paintings’ features and volunteers’ preferences.

In a second test, researchers repeated the experiment on six volunteers, showing each 1,000 paintings while inside an MRI—a machine that scans a person’s brain activity. The test revealed (揭示) that the different features of a painting are sent to the part of the brain that deals with valuing items, allowing someone to form their overall opinion.

Finally, the team repeated the first test on new volunteers. Again, the algorithm (算法) was able to accurately predict individuals’ art preferences. According to Iigaya, this shows that the factors that contribute to whether a person likes an image are universal, not random.

Lesley Fellows, a neurologist at McGill University who studies value judgments, stated, “We know a lot about ‘how’ the brain carries out actions, but ‘why’ is far less well understood.”

12. What did the Caltech team try to discover?

A. What kinds of artwork appeal to people. B. Why only some people value art.

C. Whether an individual’s preference for art is predictable. D. Whether one’s mood influences their opinion of artwork.

13. How did the Caltech team’s first experiment help their second test?

A. Some features of paintings were categorized（分类）. B. It helped decide the types of paintings to be used. C. Part of the brain to process paintings was identified. D. Volunteers were grouped based on their response. 14. What did the Caltech team find from their second test?

A. The brain reacted differently to different paintings. B. MRIs influence people’s opinion of paintings.

C. Individuals have different valuing systems in their brain.

D. A certain part of the brain helps people judge paintings.

15. Why does the author quote Lesley Fellows’ words in the last paragraph?

A. To question the Caltech team’s research.

B. To approve of the research on why we make value judgments. C. To show there is still a lot left to learn about the brain. D. To point out the focus of the future brain research.

第二节 七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余项。

Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia, is the largest encyclopedia ever. An encyclopedia is a collection of informative articles about various things. Encyclopedias used to be printed as books. _______16________

“Wiki” is an internet term that means “a website that can be edited by the public.” It comes from “wikiwiki”, a Hawaiian word for “quick”. Two Americans, Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger, created Wikipedia in 2001. _______17________ It has about 6 million articles in 300 languages and is visited by billions of people each day, who want to find information on just about anything – science, math, languages, art, culture, and company histories. There are articles on sports stars, too, and even long-forgotten soap operas from the 1970s.

_______18________ Except for a small number of pages, anyone can edit articles, anonymously (匿名地) or with a user account, and registered (注册的) users can create their own articles. Editing is unpaid, although Wikipedia does employ a small staff. Wikipedia is freely available to anyone with an internet connection. Its founders hoped that the model would make use of humanity’s collective knowledge.

________19_______ Many Wikipedia pages contain errors, although the organization has a content review system that works to fix this problem. Several studies have concluded that Wikipedia is as accurate as most print encyclopedias. Indeed, a 2005 report in the journal Nature found it to be only slightly less reliable than Encyclopedia Britannica.

________20_______ It does not rely on advertising. Instead, all of its funds (资金) come from donations. Perhaps more importantly, the number of its volunteer editors is shrinking.

Despite these difficulties, Jimmy Wales says he will still stick to his dream. He has big plans for the future. He wants Wikipedia available in all of the world’s languages.

A. Most of its editors are volunteers. B. Now, they are mostly found online. C. Today Wikipedia faces many challenges. D. Wikipedia employs an open editing model. E. It allows users to get information within seconds.

The hiking trip, which is aimed at helping students to keep fit and cultivate a strong will, will take place at the first weekend after the holiday starts.

If you join us, you’ll not regret it, because through this trip you can not only get a taste of the beautiful views along the way but also have a better understanding of the local country life in China. We would all be extremely honoured if you could come!

Yours, Li Hua
