4.Hello, new students! This is a message from the Students Union Committee. We've been at the university for at least a year now, so we can give you some good tips. Don't worry - we remember being new and making a lot of mistakes! And we haven't forgotten feeling a little bit scared. First, as you know, there are no longer any grants. If you borrow money from the government, remember that like all loans, you have to pay it back. Spending all your money in the first week is not a sensible strategy. Try to make a budget for each term and stick to it. But if you are struggling to make ends meet, you can get a part-time job-restaurants and bars in the town take lots of students on in the evenings and at weekends. Come and see us for advice. Stop worrying about making new friends. Start to join the sports and hobbies societies - they're cheap and you can begin meeting a lot of people that way. It's a great chance to take up a completely new hobby. Living in a new city a long way from home can be very stressful. One tip, don't forget your parents. After all, they are paying your tuition fees here. You will be very busy working and enjoying yourself, but stop to phone your parents sometimes and don't forget to go home for the weekend from time to time. And remember to take your dirty washing! Finally, remember to work hard and play hard. Go on working steadily towards your first degree (BA or BSc) throughout your three years here - try to keep things in perspective. You'll always find someone in the Student Union office if you need to talk.1). What does the word "scared" mean in the second paragraph?2). What does the word "grants" mean in the third paragraph?3). The sentence "But if you are struggling to make ends meet, ?at weekends" in the third paragraph implies().4).

    Parkinson's Disease

    1 Parkinson's disease affects the way you move.It happens when there is a problem with certain nerve
    cells in the brain. Normally , these nerve cells make an important chemical called dopamine（多巴胺）. Dopa-
    mine sends signals to the part of your brain that controls movement.It lets your muscles move smoothly and
    do what you want them to do.When you have Parkinson's,these nerve cells break down.Then you no longer
    have enough dopamine,and you have trouble moving the way you want to.
    2 No one knows for sure what makes these nerve cells break down.But scientists are doing a lot of re-
    search to look for the answer. They are studying many possible causes,including aging and poisons in the en-
    vironment.Abnormal genes seem to lead to Parkinson's disease in some people.But so far,there is not enough
    proof to show that it is always inherited.
    3 Tremor（颤抖）may be the first symptom you notice.It is one of the most common signs of the
    disease,although not everyone has it.Tremor often starts in just one arm or leg or only on one side of the
    body.It may be worse when you are awake but not moving the affected arm or leg. It may get better when you
    move the limb or when you are asleep.In time,Parkinson's affects muscles all through your body,so it can
    lead to problems like trouble swallowing or constipation（便秘）.In the later stages of the disease , a person
    with Parkinson's may have a fixed or blank expression,trouble speaking,and other problems.Some people
    also have a decrease in mental skills.
    4 At this time,there is no cure for Parkinson's disease.But there are several types of medicines that
    can control the symptoms and make the disease easier to live with.You may not even need treatment if your
    symptoms are mild.Your doctor may wait to prescribe medicines until your symptoms start to get in the way of
    your daily life.Your doctor will adjust your medicines as your symptoms get worse.You may need to take
    several medicines to get the best results.

    You'll find it hard to move the way you want to__________.
    A:what affects muscles all through your body
    B:if there isn't enough dopamine in your body
    C:which cannot be cured yet
    D:which may be the first symptom you notice
    E:if you have a fixed or blank expression
    F: what causes Parkinson's disease

    答案：B

    即帕金森综合征的定义。本段的中心意思是什么是帕金森综合征。
    即导致疾病产生的可能的原因。本段主要探讨的是这种疾病发生的原因。

  • 第5题：

    资料：As a startup founder, my daily tasks include everything from long-term strategic planning to approving team outings and company culture initiatives. Day after day, things inevitably come up that need to get handled ASAP. But I’ve also learned that if you don’t have a strategy for making time for those bigger ambitions and your truly lofty goals, they’ll simply never get done. And that means you won’t make the progress that’s really going to move your business forward.
    1. FIND YOUR MOST PRODUCTIVE TIME
    Face it: You aren’t cranking out work at absolute peak productivity for the entire day. Instead, there are likely certain times when you’re at your most focused and other times when your energy wanes. That’s normal. Maybe for you, it’s bright and early in the morning, before anyone else arrives in the office, when you do your best work. Whenever it is, identify that chunk of time （even if it’s only an hour!） when you feel most productive, and then reserve it on your calendar like you would any other important meeting. You need to protect this block of time from intrusion--it isn’t optional. That way you’re guaranteed to have a regular, designated period when you can at least get started on those bigger to-dos.
    2. CREATE PHYSICAL BARRIERS
    Nobody works in a vacuum. We all have to collaborate with others to some degree or another. And it’s the people we work closest with whom we tend to put first--we want to be readily available if they need our help. But there are times you need to tune out the distractions and focus if you’re going to get any meaningful work done.
    One of the most effective methods I’ve found is to put physical barriers between us. I’ll work from a conference room or even from home on occasion in order to get some literal space from people needing “just one quick thing.”

    The word “wanes” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to:

    A.increase
    B.peak
    C.diminish
    D.disappear

    答案：C
    解析：
    本题考查的是词义理解。
    【关键词】“wanes” in paragraph 2 ；closest in meaning to
    【主题句】第2自然段Face it: You aren’t cranking out work at absolute peak productivity for the entire day. Instead, there are likely certain times when you’re at your most focused and other times when your energy wanes. 面对现实：你绝不可能一整天都处于绝对高产的峰值。事实上，往往你在固定的时间内最为专心，而在其余时间里精力则会衰退。
    【解析】题干意为“与第2自然段的‘wanes’意思最相近的选项是哪一个？” 选项A意为“增加”；选项B意为“最高点”；选项C意为“减少”；选项D意为“消失”。根据主题句可知，前半句说的是注意力最集中的时候，那后半句应该说的是相反的意思，也就是注意力减少，故选项C正确。

  • 第7题：

    资料：Being financially secure in retirement just doesn't happen magically. It takes lots of planning, time and savings.
    Some scary facts about retirement:
    More than 50% of persons do not have enough finances for retirement.
    25% do not participate in their company's retirement plan.
    The average person spends 20 years in retirement.
    Here are some tips to help you plan correctly:
    1. Talk to a financial professional. Every few years, it's a good idea to schedule a meeting with a financial planner to get a “check-up”. It's just like a doctor's visit, and you should really talk about your present situation and future goals.
    2. Save, save, and keep on saving. Make it a habit to save as much as you can.
    3. Learn your retirement needs. Retirement can be expensive. Learn from today how much you need to save for your retirement. Talk to a financial planner, or find an online retirement calculator.
    4. Take part in your employer's retirement plans. If your company offers one, it is usually the best tool you can use. Talk to a financial professional for all your options.
    5. Learn about pension plans. If you have an employer or government pension plan, learn all the details.
    6. Keep your retirement savings off-limits. Don't make a withdrawal until you retire. You might incur penalties and it will be a setback for realizing your goals.
    7. Get your employer to start one, and it can help you tremendously.
    8. Learn about your government's retirement plans. Every country has different plans, some with special tax incentives, so learn what your country offers and plan accordingly.
    9. Do your own research. Use the Internet, read the newspapers and magazines, talk to your friends, to find out as much as you can about retirement.

    What will happen if you withdraw your retirement savings before you retire?

    A.You may have to pay penalties.
    B.You will fail to realize your goals.
    C.Your retirement savings will become off-limits.
    D.You should save money for your retirement all over again.

    答案：B

    Saving Money

    Where you save your money often depends on what you are saving for.If you are
    saving to buy a dictionary or to go to a concert,then probably keep your money somewhere
    in your room.
    If you are saving for a big purchase like a mountain bike or a school trip,where would
    you save your money?
    One place to save money is the bank.Putting your money in a savings account will
    help your money earn more money.If you put your money in a piggy bank（猪形储蓄
    罐）,one year later you'll still have the same amount of money you put in.If you put
    your money in a savings account,one year later,you'll have more money than you put
    in.Why?
    When you keep your money in a bank,your money earns interest.Interest is the
    amount of money a bank pays you to use your money.The bank uses your money(and
    the money of other people,too)to loan money to people and businesses.
    The bank will send you a statement several times a year.A bank statement tells you
    how much money there is in your account.It also tells you how much interest you have
    earned.If you leave your money in the bank,you can watch it grow!
    Another way you can save money is to buy a certificate of deposit or CD.If you have
    some money that you don't need to use for a long time,this is a good way to make your
    money grow.
    You can buy a CD at a bank.You agree not to use the money for a certain period of
    time.That period might be from six months to five years.You can't touch your money
    during that time.If you do,you must pay a penalty,or fee.
    Since the bank is using your money for that time period,it will pay you interest.You
    will earn more interest with a CD than in a savings account.Can you guess why?It's
    because you promise to leave your money in the bank for a certain period of time.Banks
    pay different rates of interest.So,you may want to compare rates in newspaper ads before
    buying a CD.

    Which way will help your money earn more money?
    A:Putting your money in your room.

    Being financially secure in retirement just doesn’t happen magically It takes lots of planning time and savings
    Some scary facts about retirement
    ?More than 50% of persons do not have enough finances for retirement
    ?25%do not participate in their company’s retirement plan
    ?The average person spends 20 years in retirement
    Here are some tips to help you plan correctly
    1. Talk to a financial professional. Every few years it’s a good idea to schedule a meeting with a financial planner to get a “check-up”. It’s just like a doctor’s visit and you should really talk about your present situation and future goals
    2. Save and keep on saving. Make it a habit to save as much as you can
    3. Learn your retirement needs. Retirement can be expensive. Learn from today how much you need to save for your retirement. Talk to a financial planner or find an online retirement calculator
    4. Take part in your employer’s retirement plans. If your company offers one it is usually the best tool you can use. Talk to a financial professional for all your options
    5. Learn about pension. If you have an employer or government pension plan learn all the details
    6. Keep your retirement savings off-limits. Don’t make a withdrawal until you retire. You might incur penalties and it will be a setback for realizing your goals
    What will happen if you withdraw your retirement savings before you retire?

    A. You may have to pay penalties
    B. You will fail to realize your goals
    C. You retirement savings will become off-limits
    D. You should save money for your retirement all over again

    答案：A
    解析：
    细节题。根据关键词定位到原文段标号6“Don’t make a withdrawal until you retire You might incur penalties and it will be a setback for realizing your goals”可以得知，一旦提前取走养老金，就很可能面临罚款，故A项符合。B项绝对了，可能对实现自己的目标会有障碍，但并不是就实现不了，排除B项。文段表明的意思是尽量不要动用这笔养老的钱，而不是动用了就会冻结，因此排除。D项文段没有提及要不要重新缴纳的问题，故排除D项。因此答案选A。

    Parkinson's Disease

    1 Parkinson's disease affects the way you move.It happens when there is a problem with certain nerve
    cells in the brain. Normally , these nerve cells make an important chemical called dopamine（多巴胺）. Dopa-
    mine sends signals to the part of your brain that controls movement.It lets your muscles move smoothly and
    do what you want them to do.When you have Parkinson's,these nerve cells break down.Then you no longer
    have enough dopamine,and you have trouble moving the way you want to.
    2 No one knows for sure what makes these nerve cells break down.But scientists are doing a lot of re-
    search to look for the answer. They are studying many possible causes,including aging and poisons in the en-
    vironment.Abnormal genes seem to lead to Parkinson's disease in some people.But so far,there is not enough
    proof to show that it is always inherited.
    3 Tremor（颤抖）may be the first symptom you notice.It is one of the most common signs of the
    disease,although not everyone has it.Tremor often starts in just one arm or leg or only on one side of the
    body.It may be worse when you are awake but not moving the affected arm or leg. It may get better when you
    move the limb or when you are asleep.In time,Parkinson's affects muscles all through your body,so it can
    lead to problems like trouble swallowing or constipation（便秘）.In the later stages of the disease , a person
    with Parkinson's may have a fixed or blank expression,trouble speaking,and other problems.Some people
    also have a decrease in mental skills.
    4 At this time,there is no cure for Parkinson's disease.But there are several types of medicines that
    can control the symptoms and make the disease easier to live with.You may not even need treatment if your
    symptoms are mild.Your doctor may wait to prescribe medicines until your symptoms start to get in the way of
    your daily life.Your doctor will adjust your medicines as your symptoms get worse.You may need to take
    several medicines to get the best results.

    A lot of research is being done to find out__________.
    A:what affects muscles all through your body
    B:if there isn't enough dopamine in your body
    C:which cannot be cured yet
    D:which may be the first symptom you notice
    E:if you have a fixed or blank expression
    F: what causes Parkinson's disease

    答案：F

    即导致疾病产生的可能的原因。本段主要探讨的是这种疾病发生的原因。
    即疾病的典型症状。本段讲的是帕金森综合征的一些典型的病症，如颤抖、吞咽困难和 便秘等等。

    即帕金森病最常见的病症是颤抖，它可能是你发现的第一个症状。从第三段第一句 " Tremor (颤抖）may be the first symptom you notice.”可知，本题应选D。
    患帕金森综合征的人必须学会带着这种病生活，因为现在人们还无法治愈它，从最后 一段第一句“At this time , there is no cure for Parkinson's disease.”可知，本题应选C。

  • 第17题：

    资料：As a startup founder, my daily tasks include everything from long-term strategic planning to approving team outings and company culture initiatives. Day after day, things inevitably come up that need to get handled ASAP. But I’ve also learned that if you don’t have a strategy for making time for those bigger ambitions and your truly lofty goals, they’ll simply never get done. And that means you won’t make the progress that’s really going to move your business forward.
    1. FIND YOUR MOST PRODUCTIVE TIME
    Face it: You aren’t cranking out work at absolute peak productivity for the entire day. Instead, there are likely certain times when you’re at your most focused and other times when your energy wanes. That’s normal. Maybe for you, it’s bright and early in the morning, before anyone else arrives in the office, when you do your best work. Whenever it is, identify that chunk of time （even if it’s only an hour!） when you feel most productive, and then reserve it on your calendar like you would any other important meeting. You need to protect this block of time from intrusion--it isn’t optional. That way you’re guaranteed to have a regular, designated period when you can at least get started on those bigger to-dos.
    2. CREATE PHYSICAL BARRIERS
    Nobody works in a vacuum. We all have to collaborate with others to some degree or another. And it’s the people we work closest with whom we tend to put first--we want to be readily available if they need our help. But there are times you need to tune out the distractions and focus if you’re going to get any meaningful work done.
    One of the most effective methods I’ve found is to put physical barriers between us. I’ll work from a conference room or even from home on occasion in order to get some literal space from people needing “just one quick thing.”

    What can be inferred from paragraph 3?

    A.You have to be readily available in the office.
    B.People cannot work in a vacuum.
    C.People in the office love helping others.
    D.Sometimes we have to decline colleagues’ requests.

    答案：D
    解析：
    本题考查的是推理判断。
    【关键词】inferred；paragraph 3
    【主题句】第3自然段 But there are times you need to tune out the distractions and focus if you’re going to get any meaningful work done.但是如果你需要完成一些意义重大的工作，就需要一些屏蔽干扰的时间。
    【解析】题干意为“从第3自然段可以推断出什么？” 选项A意为“你必须在办公室随时待命”；选项B意为“人们不能在真空中工作”；选项C意为“办公室的人喜欢帮助别人”；选项D意为“有时候我们不得不拒绝同事的要求”；根据主题句可知，虽然在别人需要帮助的时候，我们希望提供帮助。但是，有时我们在做有意义的工作的时候，不得不婉拒同事的请求。故选项D正确。

    A.When you are most focused
    B.When there is no distractions
    C.Late at night
    D.Bright and early in the morning

    答案：A
    解析：

    【关键词】paragraph 2；chunk of time
    【主题句】第2自然段Whenever it is, identify that chunk of time when you feel most productive, and then reserve it on your calendar like you would any other important meeting. 无论是在什么时间，确定这段你最高产的时间，在日程中保留这一重要时间段，就像标注其它重要会议一样。
    【解析】题干意为“根据第2自然段，作者所说的‘大块的时间’是指哪一个？” 选项A意为“当你最专注的时候”；选项B意为“没有讨论的时候”；选项C意为“晚上”；选项D意为“一大早”。根据主题句可知，大块的时间指的是一天中你注意力最集中、最有效率的时间，故选项A正确。

    Saving Money

    Where you save your money often depends on what you are saving for.If you are
    saving to buy a dictionary or to go to a concert,then probably keep your money somewhere
    in your room.
    If you are saving for a big purchase like a mountain bike or a school trip,where would
    you save your money?
    One place to save money is the bank.Putting your money in a savings account will
    help your money earn more money.If you put your money in a piggy bank（猪形储蓄
    罐）,one year later you'll still have the same amount of money you put in.If you put
    your money in a savings account,one year later,you'll have more money than you put
    in.Why?
    When you keep your money in a bank,your money earns interest.Interest is the
    amount of money a bank pays you to use your money.The bank uses your money(and
    the money of other people,too)to loan money to people and businesses.
    The bank will send you a statement several times a year.A bank statement tells you
    how much money there is in your account.It also tells you how much interest you have
    earned.If you leave your money in the bank,you can watch it grow!
    Another way you can save money is to buy a certificate of deposit or CD.If you have
    some money that you don't need to use for a long time,this is a good way to make your
    money grow.
    You can buy a CD at a bank.You agree not to use the money for a certain period of
    time.That period might be from six months to five years.You can't touch your money
    during that time.If you do,you must pay a penalty,or fee.
    Since the bank is using your money for that time period,it will pay you interest.You
    will earn more interest with a CD than in a savings account.Can you guess why?It's
    because you promise to leave your money in the bank for a certain period of time.Banks
    pay different rates of interest.So,you may want to compare rates in newspaper ads before
    buying a CD.

    If you draw your money before it is due,
    A:you have to pay interest to the bank.
    B:you have to close your account.
    C:you have to open a new account.
    D:you have to pay a penalty or fee.

    答案：D

    Look After Your Voice

    Often speakers at a meeting experience dry mouths and ask for a glass of water. You can solve the problem
    by activating the saliva in you mouth.First gently bite the edges of your tongue with your teeth.Or press
    your entire tongue to the bottom of your mouth and hold it there until the saliva flow.Or you can imagine that
    you are slicing a big juicy lemon and sucking the juice.
    Before you begin your talk,be kind to your voice.Avoid milk or creamy drinks which coat your throat.
    Keep your throat wet by drinking a little sweetened warm tea or diluted fruit juice.
    If you sense that your are losing your voice,stop talking completely.Save your voice for your speech.
    You may feel foolish using paper to write notes,but the best thing you can do is to rest your voice.If you
    need to see a doctor,perhaps you can get some advice from a professional singer. In the meantime,do not
    even talk in a low voice.
    What about drinking alcohol to wet your throat?I advice you not to touch alcohol before speaking. The
    problem with alcohol is that one drink gives you a little confidence.The second drink gives you even more
    confidence.Finally you will feel all-powerful and you will feel you can do everything,but in fact your brain
    and your mouth do not work together properly.Save the alcohol until after you finish speaking.
    Perhaps you want to accept the advice,but you may wonder if you can ever change the habits of a life-
    time.Of course you can.Goethe,who lived before indoor skating rinks or swimming pools,said,"We learn
    to skate in the summer and swim in the winter."Take this message to heart and give yourself time to develop
    your new habits.If you are willing to change,you will soon be able to say that you will never forget these
    techniques because they became a part of your body.

    Why does the writer cite Goethe's advice?
    A:To encourage one to go in for sports.
    B:To tell that Goethe had a strong willpower.
    C:To prove one can change one's habits.
