A.

About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd-scene. Although our "act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite anumber of interesting things.

We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at theedge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speakto the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one ofthe actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tinywhite feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in "snow". Two more fans were turnedon, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.

The next scenewas a complete contrast (对比). The way it was filmed was quite unusual.Picturesin fronttaken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen (幕). An actor andactress stoodof the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water’s edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches,and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!

Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For afull three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film "stars"!

Cold weather can be hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness.There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.

Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. If you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.

If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may containsomethingunhealthy for them.

Make Up Y our Mind to Succeed

Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their childrendefenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because―everyone’s winner.‖A nd their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them ―the overpraised generation.‖Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:

A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic – you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeedwithout much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from futuredifficulties.

On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.

We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouragingcertainactions and

misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and onlineinstructional programexplain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.

47.What does the author think about the present generation?

A. They don’t do well at school.

B. They are often misunderstood.

C. They are eager to win in sports.

D. They are given too much praise.

48.A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .

A. doesn’t want to work hard

B. cares a lot about personal safety

C. cannot share his ideas with others

D. can succeed with the help of teachers

49.What does the growth mind-set believe?

A. Admitting failure is shameful.

B. Talent comes with one’s birth.

C. Scores should be highly valued.

D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.

50.What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study?

A. Encourage them to learn from failures.

B. Prevent them from making mistakes.

C. Guide them in doing little things.

D. Help them grow with praise.

四、任务型阅读

The 2012 London Olympics are to have enough problems to worry about. But one more has just been added - a communications blackout caused by solar storms.

After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs of a flesh cycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012, just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London.

Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth, causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and interact links sending live Olympic broadcast from London.

―The Sun’s activity has a strong influence on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites,‖ said Professor Richard Harrison, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.

At the peak of the cycle, violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun’s atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter. ―A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour. Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount, can disable satellites, cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications,‖ Professor Harrison added. The risk is greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.

Next week in America, NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than

the most advanced televisions available.

The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.

Professor Richard Hold away, the lab’s director, said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite communications on Earth ―If we have advance warning, we’ll be able to reduce the damage. What you don’t want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what’s caused the problem,‖ he said.

Title : Sun Storms Reaches its (51) ▲in 2012

自主训练一解析

1.解析：选D。句意：“既然大雪过后路这么滑，为什么不待在家里呢？”now that相当于since，意为“既然”。

2.解析：选D。句意：——一些学生在伦敦时，发现听懂本地人说的话很难。——的确如此，即使他们学了很多语法也知道很多单词。A“如果……就好了”；B“既然”；C“仿佛，好像”；D“即使”，故选D。

3.解析：选A。根据句意：“我本不该看那部电影的——这会让我做可怕的梦”。

shouldn’t have done“本不该做……，而事实上却做了”，符合题意。B. needn’t have done“本不必做……”；C. couldn’t have done“不可能做了……(表推测)”；D. must ＋have done反用于肯定句中表示对已发生事情的推测。

4.解析：选D。add sth.to...“把……加上”，本句应为add several new events to the program。因此new events与add之间为被动关系，故用过去分词作后置定语。

5.解析：选B。add to“加到，添加”。句意：我收到了我妈妈的一封信，上面有一枚特别的邮票，我可以把它收集到我的集邮册里。add up to，add together都是“总共”的意思，不合题意；add in “包括”，也不合题意。

6.解析：选C。句意：试验排除了那个星球上存在生命的可能，但是这并不意味着其他星球上没有生命。rule out表示“排除”。A项“查明”，B项“指出”，D项“实行”。

7.解析：选C。由语意可知，Sam是在看别人用电脑的时候，无意间获得了一些电脑知识。表示偶然学到的技能或知识，要用pick up。bring up提出，养育；look up查阅；set up树立，建立。

8.解析：选D。句意：请你帮我浏览一下这篇论文，看是否有明显的错误好吗？look around环顾四周；look into调查；look up查阅，抬头看；look through查看，快速浏览。本题就是“快速查看”的意义表达。

9.解析：选C。考查词组辨析。句意：据报道，警方将很快调查那两个孩子失踪的案件。此处look into表示“调查”。

10.解析：选A。考查连词的用法。根据句意，这里表示前后句之间的对比，所以用while，表示“而”。第二句意为“前面两项是免费的，而第三项收费30美元”。

11.解析：选A。研究表明，如果人们总是长时间地坐在电脑屏幕前面，他们的背部更有可能会出问题。四个选项中主语为人且和不定式连用的只有likely和sure，likely表示“有可能的”，sure表示“必定，肯定”，根据句意应用likely。possible作表语时主语不能为人；probable的主语只能是物。

12.解析：选C。announce后接人要加to；pay与tax之间有被动含义，要用过去分词。

13.解析：选A。本题考查谓语动词。从本句的时间副词“now”可以确定为现在时态，而动词“remain”是个不及物动词，没有被动语态，故排除B，D；且没有进行时态，排除C。因为表达“留存”意义的remain本身就表示状态，故选A。句意：这座宫殿在上世纪着了三次大火，故现在几乎没有留下多少原先的建筑。

14.解析：选A。句意：女士们，先生们，请在飞机完全停下来之后，再离开座位。remain仍然是；保持不变，在这里是一个连系动词。be/remain seated保持坐着的状态，seated(＝sitting)是由过去分词变来的形容词，作remain的表语，表状态。

15.解析：选D。all possible means 表示复数概念，故谓语动词用复数；且根据stop sb./sth.(from)doing 句式可知，答案为D。
