    A．toB．ofC．forD．with

    分析 一位年轻妇女因为救了从高楼坠下的婴儿而受到奖励．

    解答 答案：D．
    考查介词的用法．此处present sb．with an award 意为"给某人颁奖"，题干中使用的是这一短语的被动语态形式．

    点评 本题考查介词的用法．众所周知，介词在固定搭配中使用的频率相当高，除了经常总结学习之外，还要在具体的语境中注意短语的使用是否变换了形式，例如一些短语的被动语态形式就是经常考查的重点．

    17．There were smiling children all the way．Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway，wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang．Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives．This is the simple village people of Malaysia．I was moved．
    I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car，so this was the first time I was on a train．I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread．I looked about the train．There was not one familiar face．I sighed and sat down to read my Economics．
    It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia．Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore，so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past．As we went beyond the city，I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green．Then the first village came into sight，immediately I came alive； I decided to wave back．
    From then on my journey became interesting．I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life．Then everything came alive．The mountains seemed to speak to me．Even the trees were smiling．I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time．
    The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry．I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3：00pm．Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth．I looked at the people all around me．They all looked beautiful．When my uncle waved with a smile，I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug．I had never done this before．He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile．We walked arm in arm to his car．
    I looked forward to the return journey．
    32．The author had expected the train trip to beC．
    A．adventurous         B．pleasant      C．boring        D．exciting
    33．What touched the author during the train trip？B
    A．The mountains along the way．
    B．The friendly country people．
    C．The crowds of people in the streets．
    D．The simple lunch served on the train．
    34．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word"relish"in Paragraph 2？B
    A．dislike          B．enjoy             C．release         D．choose
    35．What can we learn from the story？A
    A．Smiles brighten people up．
    B．Pleasure of living in the country．
    C．Reading gives people delight．
    D．Comfort in traveling by train．

    1．For years I wanted a flower garden．But then we had Matthew．And Marvin．And the twins，Alisa and Alan．And then Helen．Five children．I was too busy raising them to grow a garden．
    Money was tight，as well as time．Often when my children were little，one of them would want something that cost too much，and I'd have to say，"Do you see a money tree outside？Money doesn't grow on trees，you now．"
    Finally，all five got through high school and college and were off on their own．
    One spring morning，on Mother's Day，I was working in my kitchen． Suddenly，I realized that cars were tooting their horns as they drove by． I looked out the window and there was a new tree，planted right in my yard．I thought it must be a weeping willow，because I saw things blowing around on all its branches．Then I put my glasses on-and I couldn't believe what I saw．
    There was a money tree in my yard!
    I went outside to look．It was true!There were dollar bills，one hundred of them，taped all over that tree．Think of'all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars!There was also a note attached："IOU eight hours of digging time．Love，Marvin．"
    Marvin kept his promise，too．He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot bed for me And my other children bought me tools，ornaments，a trellis（格架），a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books．
    That was three years ago．My garden's now very pretty，just like I wanted． When I go out and tend my flowers，I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did． I feel like they're right there with me．
    I'm still not sure that money grows on trees． But I know love does!

    46．Why did the mother say"Money doesn't grow on trees"？A．
    A．She wanted them not to spend extra money  
    B．She was too sad to say anything else
    C．She told them a truth on money           
    D．she just played a joke with them
    47．What do we know about the mother according to the text？D．
    A．She is a bad-tempered woman            
    B．She believes money can grow on a tree now
    C．She is a writer                         
    D．She is hard-working in housekeeping
    48．What can be inferred from the text？B．
    A．The author raised five children
    B．The money tree was a Mother Day's gift
    C．It cost Marvin eight hours to dug up the bed
    D．Children planted a weeping willow in the yard
    49．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？A．
    A．My Money Tree                     
    B．The Garden of MY Children
    C．Mother's Love                     
    D．Marvin's Promise．

    11．Want to add some hours to your day？Ok，you probably can't change the fabric of time．But a new study suggests that the way you feel about your goal can change your concept of time and that some simple strategies could make you feel less rushed．
    In a series of experiments，Jordan Etkin，a professor of marketing at Duke，and her co-authors，Loannis Evangelidis and Jennifer Aaker，looked at what happens when people see their goals as conflicting with one another．In one，they asked some participants to list two of their goals that they felt were in conflict，and others simply to list two of their goals．Those who were forced to think about conflicting aims felt more time pressure than those who weren't．In another experiment，the researchers gave participants a similar prompt regarding goal conflict，but this time measured their anxiety levels as well as their attitudes toward time．They found that participants who thought about conflicting goals had more anxiety than those who didn't，and that this，in turn，led to feelings of being short on time．
    "Stress and anxiety and time pressure are closely linked concepts，"D．Etkin explained．"When we feel more stress and anxiety in relation to our personal goals，that manifests as a sense of having less time．"
    Technological advances that allow people to do lots of things at once may increase the feeling of goal conflict，she said．
    "I think the easier it is for us to try to deal with a lot of these things at the same time，"
    She  said"the more opportunity there is for us to feel this conflict between our goals．"
    She isn't the first to suggest that actual busyness isn't the only thing that can make us Feel busy  At the Atlantic，Derek Thompson wrote that"as a country，we're working less than we did in the 1960s and 1980s．"He offered a number of possible reasons some Americans still feel so overworked，including"the fluidness ffl±） of work and leisure．"As he put it：
    "The idea that work begins and ends at the office is wrong．On the one hand，flexibility is nice，On the other，mixing work and leisure together creates an always-on expectation that makes it hard for white-collar workers to escape the shadow of work responsibilities．"
    And Brigid Schulte writes in her 2014 book Overwhelmed：How to Work，Love，and Play When No One Has the Time that some researchers believe"time has no sharp edges．What often matters more than the activity we're doing at a moment in time，they have found，is how we feel about it．Our concept of time is indeed，our reality．"
    Fortunately，Dr．Etkin and her team did find ways of making us feel better about time-or，at least，of reducing the negative influence of goal conflict．When participants performed a breathing exercise that reduced their anxiety，the impact of such conflict o n their perception of time was less pronounced．Reframing anxiety as excitement （by reading the phrase"I am excited!"aloud several times） had a similar effect．
    Breathing and reframing may not solve everyone's time problems-Ms．Schulte writes that some Americans are indeed working more than they used to．She cites the work of the sociologists Michael Hout and C aroline Hanley，who have"found that working parents combined put in 13 more hours a week on the job in 2000 than they did in 1970．That's 676 hours of additionally paid work a year for a family．And that's on top of all the unpaid hours spent caring for children and keeping the house together．"Sometimes，we may feel short on time because we actually are．However，Dr．Etkin believes her findings suggest we may"have the ability to influence our experience of time more than we think we do．"
    "We're all going to have times in our lives when our goals seem to be in more conflict than others，"she said．But with techniques like the ones her team tested，"we really can help ourselves feel like we have more time．"
    58．What makes people feel rushed today？A
    A．Goal conflict．B．High pressure．C．Too much expectation．D．Lack of exercise．
    59．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？D
    A．Most people are having less work to do nowadays．
    B．People under a lot of stress have a better sense of time．
    C．Technological advances allow people to feel less stressed．
    D．The flexibility of work increases white-collar workers'pressure．
    60．The underlined sentence"Our concept of time is，indeed，our reality．"meansC
    A．we should make full use of time
    B．we value time more than the way we live
    C．we can feel better about time if we want to
    D．we don't have the time to enjoy life in reality．

    B．I just want to be a quiet and handsome man．
    C．Rich and Bitch
    D．Are you kidding me？
    E．It's so beautiful that I'm too scared to open it．
    F．So the question is…

    It's already 2015，you know．So it's time to do a year-end summary!According to"Evening Peak News"of Voice of China，Chinese netizens have summed up top 10network buzzwords（流行词）of 2014，five of which are listed here in no particular order．Dare you say you've never said one of them？
    61．C Have you noticed that so many people claimed themselves to be what the buzzword means in friends circle and Sina weibo．What a poisonous world!The buzzword  originates from a real event：In April，Mr．Liu spent 1760yuan online buying a health care product．Soon after，he got calls from a stranger who persuade him to buy other matched medicines．In the following four months，Mr．Liu remitted（汇款）a total of 540，000yuan to the swindler．He said that he had already found himself cheated when he was fooled out of 70，000yuan．"I just wanted to see how much could they take from me!"
    62．D The father of the buzzword can be traced back to Linghu Chong，a character in Jin Yong's"Swordsman"．He satirizes（讥讽）others'flattering by saying"The moment I see those who flatter（奉承）me would I feel so uncomfortable as if I were drunk．"Then a group of DOTA  players often use this phrase．No matter one's skill is good or bad，they will say this phrase．
    63．A The pattern of"contract for fishpond"，which comes from the TV play"Boss & Me"is also on the list．The boss Zhang Han said，"I want the whole world knows that you have contacted（承包）the fishpond，"with Zhao Liying in his arms．"Sb．work so hard"was a very simple word of mouth．After Cao Ge mentioned it many times in Where Are We Going，Dad？，the expression has been widely spread on the Internet．Besides，how can it be excluded（排除） from the top 10buzzwords of 2014？
    64．F The buzzword comes from the advertising of Lanxiang Vocational school．In October，Zhang Le，a member of Net Ease comment zone，deliberately commented with a long story in a news thread．At the end of the story there would be a sentence：So the question is：which is the strongest in Excavator Technology？Then after the screenshots of the thread was posted to the microblogging and friends circle，it has been widely reproduced，which makes the ad of  Lanxiang popular again．
    65．B This phrase comes from the mini-drama"never expected．"In one episode，Tang Monk rescued the Monkey King from under Five Elements Mountain and they embarked on a pilgrimage to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures（佛经）．The director who plays the monk speaks out this phrase as a usual self-flattering expression，pretending to be the most handsome．This phrase is often used by ugly and thick boys for self-ridicule．
