In a of 14 studies that looked at physical activity and academic investigators found that the more children moved， the better their grades were in school，math， English and reading.
The data will certainly fuel the ongoing debate over whether physical education classes education have included concerns that gym time may be taking away from study time. With standardized test scores in the U.S. in recent years， some administrators believe students need to spend more time in the classroom instead of on the playground. But as these findings show， exercise and academics may not Physical activity can improve to the brain， fueling memory， attention and creativity to learning.

Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.
Finding the Right Home—and ContentmentToo
[A] When your elderly relative needs to enter some sort of long-term care facility—a moment few parents or children approach without fear—what you would like is to have everything made clear.
[B] Does assisted living really mark a great improvement over a nursing home， or has the industry simply hired better interior designers? Are nursing homes as bad as people fear， or is that an out-moded stereotype Can doing one?s homework really steer families to the best places? It is genuinely hard to know.
[C] I am about to make things more complicated by suggesting that what kind of facility an older person lives in may matter less than we have assumed. And that the characteristics adult children look for when they begin the search are not necessarily the things that make a difference to the people who are going to move in. I am not talking about the quality of care， let me hastily add. Nobody flourishes in a gloomy environment with irresponsible staff and a poor safety record. But an accumulating body of research indicates that some distinctions between one type of elder care and another have little real bearing on how well residents do.
[D] The most recent of these studies， published in The journal of Applied Gerontology， surveyed 150 Connecticut residents of assisted living， nursing homes and smaller residential care homes (known in some states as board and care homes or adult care homes). Researchers from the University of Connecticut Health Center asked the residents a large number of questions about
their quality of life， emotional well-being and social interaction， as well as about the quality of the facilities.
[E] “We thought we would see differences based on the housing types，” said the lead author of the study， Julie Robison， an associate professor of medicine at the university. A reasonable assumption—don?t families struggle to avoid nursing homes and suffer real guilt if they can?t?
[F] In the initial results， assisted living residents did paint the most positive picture. They were less likely to report symptoms of depression than those in the other facilities， for instance， and less likely to be bored or lonely. They scored higher on social interaction.
[G] But when the researchers plugged in a number of other variables， such differences disappeared. It is not the housing type， they found， that creates differences in residents? responses. “It is the characteristics of the specific environment they are in， combined with their own personal characteristics—how healthy they feel they are， their age and marital status，” Dr. Robison explained. Whether residents felt involved in the decision to move and how long they had lived there also proved significant.
[H] An elderly person who describes herself as in poor health， therefore， might be no less depressed in assisted living (even if her children preferred it) than in a nursing home. A person who bad input into where he would move and has had time to adapt to it might do as well in a nursing home as in a small residential care home， other factors being equal. It is an interaction between the person and the place， not the sort of place in itself， that leads to better or worse experiences. “You can?t just say， ?Let?s put this person in a residential care home instead of a nursing home—she will be much better off，” Dr. Robison said. What matters， she added， “is a combination of what people bring in with them， and what they find there.”
[I] Such findings， which run counter to common sense， have surfaced before. In a multi-state study of assisted living， for instance， University of North Carolina researchers found that a host of variables—the facility?s type， size or age; whether a chain owned it; how
attractive the neighborhood was—had no significant relationship to how the residents fared in terms of illness， mental decline， hospitalizations or mortality. What mattered most was the residents? physical health and mental status. What people were like when they came in had greater consequence than what happened one they were there.
[J] As I was considering all this， a press release from a respected research firm crossed my desk， announcing that the five-star rating system that Medicare developed in 2008 to help families compare nursing home quality also has little relationship to how satisfied its residents or their family members are. As a matter of fact， consumers expressed higher satisfaction with the one-star facilities， the lowest rated， than with the five-star ones. (More on this study and the star ratings will appear in a subsequent post.)
[K] Before we collectively tear our hair out—how are we supposed to find our way in a landscape this confusing?—here is a thought from Dr. Philip Sloane， a geriatrician(老年病学专家)at the University of North Carolina：“In a way， that could be liberating for families.”
[L] Of course， sons and daughters want to visit the facilities， talk to the administrators and residents and other families， and do everything possible to fulfill their duties. But perhaps they don?t have to turn themselves into private investigators or Congressional subcommittees. “Families can look a bit more for where the residents are going to be happy，” Dr. Sloane said. And involving the future resident in the process can be very important.
[M] We all have our own ideas about what would bring our parents happiness. They have their ideas， too. A friend recently took her mother to visit an expensive assisted living/nursing home near my town. I have seen this place—it is elegant， inside and out. But nobody greeted the daughter and mother when they arrived， though the visit had been planned; nobody introduced them to the other residents. When they had lunch in the dining room， they sat alone at a table.
[N] The daughter feared her mother would be ignored there， and so she decided to move her into a more welcoming facility. Based on what is emerging from some of this research， that might have been as rational a way as any to reach a decision.
36. Many people feel guilty when they cannot find a place other than a nursing home for their parents.
37.Though it helps for children to investigate care facilities， involving their parents in the decision-making process may prove very important.
38.It is really difficult to tell if assisted living is better than a nursing home.
39.How a resident feels depends on an interaction between themselves and the care facility they live in.
40.The author thinks her friend made a rational decision in choosing a more hospitable place over an apparently elegant assisted living home.
41.The system Medicare developed to rate nursing home quality is of little help to finding a satisfactory place.
42.At first the researchers of the most recent study found residents in assisted living facilities gave higher scores on social interaction.
43.What kind of care facility old people live in may be less important than we think.
44.The findings of the latest research were similar to an earlier multi-state study of assisted living.
45.A resident?s satisfaction with a care facility has much to do with whether they had participated in the decision to move in and how long they had stayed there.
Section C
Directions： There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A)，B)，C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage one
Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.
As Artificial Intelligence(AI) becomes increasingly sophisticated， there are growing concerns that robots could become a threat. This danger can be avoided， according to computer science professor Stuart Russell， if we figure out how to turn human values into a programmable code.
Russell argues that as robots take on more complicated tasks， it?s necessary to translate our morals into AI language.
For example， if a robot does chores around the house， you wouldn?t want it to put the pet cat in the oven to make dinner for the hungry children. “You would want that robot preloaded with a good set of values，” said Russell.
Some robots are already programmed with basic human values. For example， mobile robots have been programmed to keep a comfortable distance from humans. Obviously there are cultural differences， but if you were talking to another person and they came up close in your personal space， you wouldn?t think that?s the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.
It will be possible to create more sophisticated moral machines， if only we can find a way to set out human values as clear rules.
Robots could also learn values from drawing patterns from large sets of data on human behavior. They are dangerous only if programmers are careless.
The biggest concern with robots going against human values is that human beings fail to so sufficient testing and they?ve produced a system that will break some kind of taboo(禁忌). One simple check would be to program a robot to check the correct course of action with a human when presented with an unusual situation.
If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave， it has the opportunity to stop， send out beeps(嘟嘟声)， and ask for directions from a human. If we humans aren?t quite sure about a decision， we go and ask somebody else.
The most difficult step in programming values will be deciding exactly what we believe in moral， and how to create a set of ethical rules. But if we come up with an answer， robots could be good for humanity.
46.What does the author say about the threat of robots?
A)It may constitute a challenge to computer progranmers.
B)It accompanies all machinery involving high technology.
C)It can be avoided if human values are translated into their language.
D)It has become an inevitable peril as technology gets more sophisticated.
47.What would we think of a person who invades our personal space according to the author?
A)They are aggressive.
B)They are outgoing.
C)They are ignorant.
D)They are ill-bred.
48.How do robots learn human values?
A)By interacting with humans in everyday life situations.
B)By following the daily routines of civilized human beings.
C)By picking up patterns from massive data on human behavior.
D)By imitating the behavior of property brought-up human beings.
49.What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation?
A)keep a distance from possible dangers.
B)Stop to seek advice from a human being.
C)Trigger its built-in alarm system at once.
D)Do sufficient testing before taking action.
50.What is most difficult to do when we turn human values into a programmable code?
A)Determine what is moral and ethical.
B)Design some large-scale experiments.
C)Set rules for man-machine interaction.
D)Develop a more sophisticated program.
Passage Two
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.
Why do some people live to be older than others? You know the standard explanations： keeping a moderate diet， engaging in regular exercise， etc. But what effect does your personality have on your longevity(长寿)?Do some kinds of personalities lead to longer lives?
A new study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society looked at this question by examining the personality characteristics of 246 children of people who had lived to be at least 100.
The study shows that those living the longest are more outgoing， more active and less neurotic (神经质的) than other people. Long-living women are also more likely to be sympathetic and cooperative than women with a normal life span. These findings are in agreement with what you would expect from the evolutionary theory： those who like to make friends and help others can gather enough resources to make it through tough times.
Interestingly， however， other characteristics that you might consider advantageous had no impact on whether study participants were likely to live longer. Those who were more self-disciplined， for instance， were no more likely to live to be very old. Also， being open to new ideas had no relationship to long life， which might explain all those bad-tempered old people who are fixed in their ways.
Whether you can successfully change your personality as an adult is the subject of a longstanding psychological debate. But the new paper suggests that if you want long life， you should strive to be as outgoing as possible.
Unfortunately， another recent study shows that your mother?s personality may also help determine your longevity. That study looked at nearly 28，000 Norwegian mothers and found that those moms who were more anxious， depressed and angry were more likely to feed their kids unhealthy diets. Patterns of childhood eating can be hard to break when we?re adults， which may mean that kids of depressed moms end up dying younger.
Personality isn?t destiny(命运)， and everyone knows that individuals can learn to change. But both studies show that long life isn?t just a matter of your physical health but of your mental health.
51. The aim of the study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society is____.
A)to see whether people?s personality affects their life span
B)to find out if one?s lifestyle has any effect on their health
C)to investigate the role of exercise in living a long life
D)to examine all the factors contributing to longevity
52. What does the author imply about outgoing and sympathetic people?
A)They have a good understanding of evolution.
B)They are better at negotiating an agreement.
C)They generally appear more resourceful.
D)They are more likely to get over hardship.
53. What finding of the study might prove somewhat out of our expectation?
A)Easy-going people can also live a relatively long life.
B)Personality characteristics that prove advantageous actually vary with times.
C)Such personality characteristics as self-discipline have no effect on longevity.
D)Readiness to accept new ideas helps one enjoy longevity.
54. What does the recent study of Norwegian mothers show?
A)Children?s personality characteristics are invariably determined by their mothers.
B)People with unhealthy eating habits are likely to die sooner.
C)Mothers? influence on children may last longer than fathers?.
D)Mothers? negative personality characteristics may affect their children?s life spans.
55.What can we learn from the findings of the two new studies?
A)Anxiety and depression more often than not cut short one?s life span.
B)Longevity results from a combination of mental and physical health.
C)Personality plays a decisive role in how healthy one is.
D)Health is in large part related to one?s lifestyle.

写作范文：
On the Relationship between Doctors and Patients
In the present age, it is generally acknowledged that the relationship between doctors and patients is playing indispensable roles in our lives. As far as I am concerned, we should balance this kind of relationship from two aspects, doctors and patients.
The causes of this perspective are multiple. In the first place, the reason has been cited as a major reason that doctors cannot be understood, for patients always maintain doctors can cure all kinds of disease. This is mainly due to the fACTthat although medical technology and science are advanced at an amazing rate, there exists a multitude of various kinds of diseases we cannot cure. Furthermore, the reason can contribute this perspective that patients are believed to be lack of the fundamental medical knowledge, which results in this relationship are worried. Plenty of evidence has shown that an increasing number of patients often go to extremes if their diseases cannot be cure instantly.
When it comes to our modern society, it is universally acknowledged that dealing with the relationship between doctors and patients in a reasonable way plays a vitally important role in our lives. Undoubtedly, if we spare no efforts to do so, our future will be hopeful and promising.

B) By working part time at a hospital. D) By asking for help on social media.
1.答案: B) Her little brother.
Q: Who did Edison raise money for?
解析: 新闻首句原则,了解大致内容是Edison卖柠檬水和画画为生病需要做心脏手术(surgery)的弟弟筹资。第一道题给考生来了个下马威,难度系数比较高, 需要考生自己分类信息再听取问题作答,这种题型称为模棱两可型题目,考察学生听力和反应能力。A) Her friend Erika. 根据顺序原则,A选项在新闻最后才出现且与问题不符，先不作考虑。C/D选项是Edison祖母猜测Edison偷听到祖父的对话,从而得知弟弟生病,与问题无关,故排除。
2.答案: C) By selling lemonade and pictures.
Q: How did Edison raise money?
原文:She decided to go outside and have a lemonade stand, make some jewelries and pictures and sell them.
这道题难度中等,根据选项形式都是by, 可得知问题一定是问how,因此,可预先考虑应该紧抓文章中的 “方式”,再根据视听一致原则即可得出答案。
原文：
A 9-year-old girl in New Mexico has raised more than $500 for her little brother who needs heart surgery in Houston Texas this July.Addison Witulski's grandmother Kim Allred said Addison probably overheard a converSATion between family members talking about the funds needed to get her little brother to treatment.
" I guess she overheard her grandfather and me talking about how we’re worried about how we’re going to get to Houston, for my grandson’s heart surgery,” said Allred. She decided to go outside and have a lemonade stand and make some drawings and pictures and sell them.”
That’s when Addison and her friends Erika and Emily Borden decided to sell lemonade for 50 cents a cup and sell pictures for 25 cents each.
Before Allred knew it, New Mexico State Police Officers were among the many, stopping by helping them reach a total of $568. The family turned to social media expressing their gratitude saying, “From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to deeply thank each and every person that stopped by!”
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.

解析: 这道题难度中等, 遵照试听一致原则,同时注意答案前后一致。
4.B) They can be laid right on top of existing highways.
Q: What is especial about the solar panels used in the walkway?
解析: 这道题有模棱两可选项出现,即B/C。但是,C呈现的听力内容只是介绍太阳能板的厚度;而B则是问题所问的特殊作用,因此,综合问题,得出答案即B。其中,highway相对应同义替换的词汇有: walkway, bypass等。
原文：
Last week, France announced that the country will pave 621 miles of road with solar panels over the next five years, with the goal of providing cheap, renewable energy to five million people.
Called “the Wattway,” the roads will be built through joint efforts with the French road-building company Colas and the National Institute of Solar Energy. The company spent the last five years developing solar panels that are only about a quarter of an inch thick and are strong enough to stand up to heavy highway traffic without breaking or making the roads more slippery. The panels are also designed so that they can be installed directly on top of existing roadways, making them relatively cheap and easy to install.
France isn’t the first country to kick around the idea of paving its roads with solar panels. In November 2015, the Netherlands completed a 229-foot-long bike path paved with solar panels as a test for future projects. However, this is the first time a panel has been designed to be laid directly on top of existing roads and the first project to install the panels on public highways.

6. 答案：D. To find evidence of the existence of the “lost lions”.
Q: What was the main purpose of the research?
解析：细节题。目的题，按照顺序中段听到了the discovery of the lost lions内容，以及catch images… / identify lions’tracks，确定答案。
7.答案：B. Lions’tracks.
Q: What did the researchers find in the national park?
解析：细节题。视听一致原则，依据identify lions’tracks, 确定答案.
原文：
Lions have disappeared from much of Africa, but for the past few years scientists have wondered if the big cats were hanging on in remote parts of Sudan and Ethiopia. Continuous fighting in the region has made surveys difficult. But scientists released a report Monday documenting, with hard evidence, the discovery of "lost lions."
A team with Oxford University’s Wildlife Conservation Research Unit, supported by a charity organization, spent two nights in November camping in the National Park in northwest Ethiopia, on the Ethiopia-Sudan border. The researchers set out six camera traps capturing images of lions, and they identified lion tracks.
The scientists concluded that lions are also likely to live in the neighbouring National Park across the border in Sudan. The International Union for Conservation of Nature had previously considered the area a "possible range" for the species, and local people had reported seeing lions in the area, but no one presented convincing evidence.

W: Oh…yeah that's right. This year will be my golden birthday.
M: What does that mean? I've never heard of a golden birthday.
W: I'veACTually just learnt this concept myself. Fortunately, just in time to celebrate. A golden or lucky birthday is when one turns the age of their birth date.

【原文+解析】There are about six stages of a negotiation: get to know the other side谈判大致有六个阶段：了解对方。
原文：
W: Mr.GREen, what do you think makes a successful negotiator?
M: Well, that’s hard to define. But I think successful negotiators have several things in common. They are always polite and rational people. They are firm but flexible. They can recognize power and know how to use it. They are sensitive to the dynamics of the negotiation. The way of rises and falls and how it may change direction. They project the image of confidence, and perhaps most importantly, they know when to stop.
W: And, what about an unsuccessful negotiator?
M: Well, this is probably all of us when we start out. We are probably immature and over-trusting. Too emotional or agGREssive. We are unsure of ourselves and we want to be liked by everyone. Good negotiators learn fast. Poor negotiators remain like that and go on losing negotiations.
W: In your opinion, can the skills of negotiation be taught?
M: Well, you can teach someone how to prepare for a negotiation. There are perhaps six stages in every negotiation. Get to know the other side. State your goals. Start the process. Clarify areas of disaGREement or conflict. Reassess your position. Making acceptable compromises. And finally, reach some aGREement in principle. These stages can be studied. And strategies to be used in each can be planned beforehand. But I think, the really successful negotiator is probably born with six sense about responding appropriately to the situation at hand.
W: The artistic sense you’ve just described?
M: Yes. That’s right.

【问题】what does the speaker say about quartz crystal clocks and watches?
【原文+解析】For example, we have quartz crystal clocks and watches accurate to within one minute a year. 例如，我们有石英晶体钟和手表可以精确到在一年中只有一分钟之内的误差。
原文：
Some people wonder why countries spend millions of dollars on space projects. They want to know how space research helps people on Earth. ACTually space technology helps people on Earth every day. This is called "spin-off technology."
Spin-off technology is space technology that is now used on Earth.
In early space programs, such as the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 1970s, and in the Space Shuttle missions today, scientists developed objects for the astronauts to use on the moon and in space. We now use some of these objects every day.
For example, we have Quartz crystal clocks and watches accurate to within one minute a year.We purify the water we drink with a water filter designed for the astronauts' use in space.
The cordless, hand-held tools we use in our homes, such as vacuum cleaners, flashlights, drills and saws came from the technology of these early space programs.
On cold winter days we can stay warm with battery-operated gloves and socks, and specially made coats and jackets. All of these clothes are similar to the spacesuit designs that kept astronauts comfortable in the temperatures of the moon, and are spin-offs from space technology.
These products are only a few examples of the many ways space technology helps us in our everyday lives. No one knows how new spin-off technology from the International Space Station will help us in the future.
21. 【答案】D) Doing needlework by the fire.
【问题】What would the speaker like doing if she could go back to the past?
【原文+解析】I love the colonial fabrics, or the silver work, the furnishings, the combination of elegance and simplicity, I love it. The printing, the books and very attached to all that kind of thing. That may not all be very entertaining in the modern sense of the world, but I would have enjoyed spending my evenings in that environment, discussing new ideas, building a new world, and I can see myself sitting on a small chair by a fire doing needlework. 我喜欢殖民地的布料，银色的工作，家具，优雅和简单的结合，我喜欢它。印刷品，书籍，非常依恋所有的东西。可能不是所有的东西都在现代意义上是非常有趣的，但我会喜欢在那样的环境里度过我的晚上，讨论新的想法，建立一个新的世界，我能看到自己坐在火旁做针线活的小凳子上。答案“D在火炉边做针线活。”与原文最后一句一致，所以选择D。
原文：
Well, if I could go back in history and live, I'd like to go back to the 18th century and perhaps in colonial America in Yankee, New England, where one of my ancestors lived, because it was the beginning of something.
By the 18th century, there was a feeling of community that had grown. My ancestor was a preacher, traveling around the countryside. People lived in small communities. There were fishermen and farmers who provided fresh food that tasted and looked like food, unlike that in today's supermarkets, and there were small towns, and New York wasn't that far away. I'm deeply attached to the Puritan tradition, not in a religious sense, but they believed in working for something, working for goals, and I like that.
They worked hard at whatever they did, but they had a sense of achievement. They believed in goodness in community and helping one another. I love the colonial fabrics, all the silver work, the furnishings, the combination of elegance and simplicity. I love it. The printing, the books, I'm very attached to all that kind of thing that may not all be very entertaining in the modern sense of the world. But I would have enjoyed spending my evenings in that environment, discussing new ideas, building a new world. And I can see myself sitting on a small chair by the fire doing needlework.

When you think you are lost, sit down on a log, or a rock, or lean against a tree, and recite something that you have memorized, to bring you mind to a point where it’s under control. Don’t run blindly. If you must move, don’t follow a stream unless you know it, and in that case, you are not lost. Streams, normally flow through wetland before they reach a lake or a river. Though there are more eatable plants, there may also be wild animals, poisonous snakes, and other hazards.Many experts feel that it’s wisest to walk uphill.At the top of most hills and mountains, are trails leading back to civilization. If there are no trails, you are much easier to be seen on top of a hill, and you may even spot a highway, or a railroad from this point. Nowadays, the first way someone will search for you is by air. In a wetland, or in dense growth, you are very hard to spot. Anytime you go into the woods, somebody should know where you are going, and when you expect to return.Also, when someone comes looking, you should be able to signal to them.
Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension ( 40 minutes )
Section A
A rat or pigeon might not be the obvious choice to tend to someone who is sick, but these creatures have some 26Ksuperior skills that could help the treatment of human diseases.
Pigeons are often seen as dirty birds and an urban 27 D nuisance, but they are just the latest in a long line of animals that have been found to have abilities to help humans.Despite having a brain no bigger than the 28 M tip of your index finger, pigeons have a very impressive 29 O visual memory.Recently it was shown that they could be trained to be as accurate as humans at detecting breast cancer in images.
Rats are often 30 A associated with spreading disease rather than 31 F preventing it, but this long-tailed animal is highly 32 H sensitive.Inside a rat's nose are up to 1,000 different types of olfACTory receptors(嗅觉感受器), whereas humans only have 100 to 200 types. This gives rats the ability to detect 33 I slight smells. As a result, some are being put to work to detect TB(肺结核). When the rats detect the smell, they stop and rub their legs to 34 C indicate a sample is infected.
Traditionally, A hundred samples would take lab technicians more than two days to 35 B examine, but for a rat it takes less than 20 minutes. This rat detection method doesn't rely on specialist equipment. It is also more accurate - the rats are able to find more TB infections and, therefore, save more lives.
A) associated
B) examine
C) indicate
D) nuisance
E) peak
F) preventing
G) prohibiting
H) sensitiveI) slight
J) specify
K) superior
L) suspicious
M) tip
N) treated
O) visual
26. K superior 较好的，上等的，修饰skills

28. M tip 指尖，后文有手指。
29. O visual视觉的修饰记忆力，后文也有images.
30. A associated be associated with 和...相关
31. F preventing rather than 表示阻止，介词后面用doing
32. H sensitive 敏感的根据后文意思它们很敏感选择H。
33. I slight 轻微的，修饰后文的气味。
34. C indicate 根据前文动作，此处是表明，暗示的意思
35. B examine 检测，检验，根据后文detection method此处选择检测。

Section C
Passage One
46. What did researchers find puzzling about the first-night effect?
答案：D) In what way it can be beneficial.
此题为细节题。题干关键词为first-night effect，researchers, puzzling。据此定位到第二段第二句“The puzzle was what benefit would be gained from it”，句子大意为：(研究者的)困惑是将会从中获得什么利益、好处。可见，D选项为正确答案，“beneficial”是对原文中“benefit”的同义替换。A选项借第一段第一句“trouble sleeping”干扰，该句是first-night effect的定义，且不在定位范围内;B选项借第二段第一句“how human evolved”干扰，不是puzzle的.内容;C选项借第三段第一句的“the surrounding environment”干扰，是实验相关内容，不在定位范围内。
47. What do we learn about Dr. Yuka Sasaki doing her research?
答案：C) She got some idea from previous studies on birds and dolphins
此题为推理题。题干关键词为Dr. Yuka Sasaki doing her research，因关键词为全文话题，定位价值不大，所以可用反证法通过选项关键词来定位，选项共同的关键词为birds and dolphins。据此定位到第二段第三句“She also knew from previous work conducted on birds and dolphins…”，句子大意为她可从之前对鸟类和海豚的研究中得出一些成果，这让她想研究人是否也会做同样的事。可见，C选项为正确答案，是对原文的同义替换。A选项的错误在于asleep(熟睡的)与原文“put half of their brains to sleep”(半睡的状态)，意思不符;BD选项的错误在于“sleeping way”和“sleeping pattern”表述不够具体、清楚。
48. What did Dr. Sasaki do when she first did her experiment?
A) She monitored the brain ACTivity of participants sleeping in a new environment.
此题为细节题。题干关键词为Dr. Sasaki, first experiment, do(做法)。“first experiment”在原文中没有原词复现，但根据句意，可知定位处在第二段第四句“this led her to wonder if people might be doing the same thing”后。根据后面原文 “The participants … monitored with techniques that looked at the ACTivity of their brains. ”可知，A选项为正确答案。B选项将原文的“35 healthy people”和“Department of Psychological Sciences”杂糅; C选项的错误在于原文并没有分析大脑的两半的区别;D选项是研究的目的，而非实验中的做法，答非所问。
49. What did Dr. Sasaki do when re-running her experiment?
答案：C) She exposed her participants to two different stimuli.

Part Ⅳ Translation
华山位于华阴市，据西安120公里。华山是秦岭的一部分，秦岭不仅分割陕南与陕北，也分隔华南与华北。与从前人们常去朝拜的泰山不同，华山过去很少有人光临，因为上山的道路极其危险。然而，希望长寿大人却经常上山，因为山上生长着许多草药，特别是一些稀有的草药。自上世纪90年代安装缆车以来，参观人数大大增加。
Located in Huayin City, Mount Hua is 120 kilometers away from Xi’an. Mount Hua is a part of Qinling Mountains, which not only separates the southern and northern parts of Shaanxi but also the South and North China. Unlike Taishan Mountain, where people often go to worship, there used to be few people going to Mount Hua as the roads to the mountains are extremely dangerous. However, people who wish to live longer often climb mountains as there are many herbs on them, especially some rare ones. Since cable cars were installed in the 1990s, the number of visitors has increased dramatically.
