As infants, we can recognize our mothers within hours of birth. Infact, we can recognize the41 ofour mother’s face well before we can recognize her body shape. It’s42how the brain can carry outsuch a function at such a young age, especially since we don’tlearn to walk and talk until we are over a year old. By the time weare adults, we have the ability to distinguish around 100,000faces. How can we remember so many faces when many of us find itdifficult to 43such a simple thing as aphone number? The exact process is not yet fully understood, butresearch around the world has begun to define the specific areas ofthe brain and processes 44for facial recognition.

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology believethat they have succeeded in45a specific area of thebrain called the fusiform face area (FFA), which is usedonly for facial recognition. This means that recognition offamiliar objects such as our clothes or cars, is from46in the brain. Researchersalso have found that the brain needs to see the whole face forrecognition to take place. It had been47thought that we only neededto see certain facial features. Meanwhile, research at UniversityCollege London has found that facial recognition is not a singleprocess, but 48involves three steps. Thefirst step appears to be an analysis of the physical features of aperson’s face, which is similar to how we scan the bar codes of ourgroceries. In the next step, the brain decides whether the face weare looking at is already known or unknown to us. And finally, thebrain furnishes the information we have collected about the personwhose face we are looking at. This complex49is done in a split secondso that we can behave quickly when reacting to certainsituations. (324 words)

III. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passage thereare four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits thecontext.

Over the past few decades, more and more countries have opened upthe markets, increasingly transforming the world economy into onefree-flowing global market. The question is:Is economicglobalization 50for all?

According to the World Bank, one of its chief supporters, economicglobalization has helped reduce51in a large number ofdeveloping countries. It quotes one study that shows increasedwealth 52to improved education andlonger life in twenty-four developing countries as a result ofintegration (融合) of local economies into the world economy. Home tosome three billion people, these twenty-four countries have seenincomes 53at an average rate of fivepercent—compared to two percent in developed countries.

Those who 54globalization claim thateconomies in developing countries will benefit from newopportunities for small and home-based businesses.55 ,small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally havesold only in 56open-air markets can nowpromote their goods worldwide by the Internet.

Critics take a different view, believing that economicglobalization is actually 57the gap between the richand poor. A study carried out by the U.N.-sponsored WorldCommission on the Social Dimension of Globalization shows that onlya few developing countries have actually58from integration into theworld economy and that the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers,and native peoples have been left behind.59 ,they maintain that globalization may eventually threaten emergingbusinesses. For example, Indian craftsmen who currently seem tobenefit from globalization because they are able to60their products may soonface fierce competition that could pot them out of61 .When large-scale manufacturers start to produce the same goods, orwhen superstores like Wal-Mart move in, these small businesses willnot be able to 62and will be crowdedout.

One thing is certain about globalization—there is no63 .Advances in technology combined with more open policies havealready created an interconnected world. The64now is finding a way tocreate a kind of globalization that works for the benefit ofall. (347 words)

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Eachpassage is followed by several questions or unfinishedstatements. For each of them there are fourchoices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits bestaccording to the information given in the passage you have justread.

A

For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of thepopulation is what scientists call “amusic.” People who are amusicare born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musicalnotes (音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the differencebetween two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between twonotes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.

As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusicscompare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other.Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music setthem apart from others. It can be difficult for other people toidentify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin tograsp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurantor a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That iswhy many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there ismusic. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation.“I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old womanwho only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studyingpeople like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how toidentify this unusual condition.

Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from thebrains of people who can appreciate music. The difference iscomplex, and it doesn’t involve defective hearing. Amusicscan understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have noproblems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusicsto people who just can’t see certain colors.

Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed(诊断). For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem withmusic. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for hercondition. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When peopleinvite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No thanks, I’m amusic,’” saysMargaret. “I just wish I had learned to say that when I wasseventeen and not seventy.”(335 words)

65. Which of the following is true of amusics?

A. Listening to music isfar from enjoyable for them.

B. They love places wherethey are likely to hear music.

C. They can easily tell twodifferent songs apart.

D. Their situation is wellunderstood by musicians.

66. According to paragraph 3, a person with “defectivehearing” is probably one who __________.

A. dislikes listening tospeechesB. can hear anything nonmusical

C. has a hearingproblemD. lacks a complex hearing system

67. In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that__________.

A. her problem with musichad been diagnosed earlier

B. she were seventeen yearsold rather than seventy

C. her problem could beeasily explained

D. she were able to meetother amusics

68. What is the passage mainly concerned with?

A. Amusics’ strangebehaviours.B.Some people’s inability to enjoy music.

C. Musical talent and brainstructure.D. Identification and treatment of amusics.

A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired byNature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly hasbecome a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems.Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is thesize of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the airand perform controlled flight tasks.

“It’s extremely important for us to think about this as a wholesystem and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components(元件),” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who hasbeen working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A fewyears ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together thecomponents. “The added difficulty with a project like this is thatactually none of those components are off the shelf and so we haveto develop them all on our own,” he said.

They engineered a series of systems to start and drive therobotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves thewings has a number of interdependencies on the individualcomponents, each of which individually has to perform well, butthen has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” saidWood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation,sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the projectproves that the flying robot with these tiny components can bebuilt and manufactured.

While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-boardpower source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-inpower source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering workat rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield.“Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” hesaid.

Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanicsand control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing andcomputation technologies on board could have much broaderapplications. “You can start thinking about using them to answeropen scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways thatwould be difficult with the animals, but using these robotsinstead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and openinteresting scientific questions that are really what drives us ona day to day basis.”

(392 words)

72. The difficulty the team of engineers met with while makingthe robotic fly was that __________.

A. they had no model intheirmindB.they did not have sufficient time

C. they had no ready-madecomponentsD. they could not assemble the components

73. It can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4 that the roboticfly __________.

A. consists of a flightdevice and a control system

B. can just fly in limitedareas at the present time

C. can collect informationfrom many sources

D. has been put into wideapplication

74. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?

A. The robotic flyer isdesigned to learn about insects.

B. Animals are not allowedin biological experiments.

C. There used to be fewways to study how insects fly.

D. Wood’s design canreplace animals in some experiments.

75. Which of the following might be the best title of thepassage?

A. Father of RoboticFlyB.Inspiration from Engineering Science

C. Robotic Fly ImitatesReal LifeInsectD. Harvard Breaks Through in Insect Study

Section C

Directions: Read the following text and choose the mostsuitable heading from A—F for each paragraph. There is one extraheading which you do not need.

A. Healthy way of life giving way to overuse of medicine

B. Different findings as to taking additional vitamin

C. EU’s response to overuse of health products

D. Worrying increase in multivitamin advertising

E. EU directive for the benefit of individuals

F. EU directive against prediction in novels

76.

The use of health supplements such as multivitamin tablets hasincreased greatly in the western world. People take thesesupplements because advertising suggests that they prevent a rangeof medical conditions from developing. However, there is concernthat people are consuming worryingly high doses of thesesupplements and the European Union (EU) has issued a directive thatwill ban the sale of a wide range of them. This EU directive shouldbe supported.

77.

Research suggests that people who take Vitamin C supplements ofover 5000 milligrams a day are more likely to develop cancer. Thisshows how much damage these health supplements do to people’shealth. A spokesman for the health supplement industry has arguedthat other research shows that Vitamin C supplements help preventheart disease, but we can dismiss this evidence as it is from abiased source.

78.

Science fiction of the 1960s and 1970s predicted that pills wouldreplace meals as the way in which people would get the fuel theyneeded. This, it was argued, would mean a more efficient use oftime as people wouldn’t have to waste it preparing or eating meals.The EU directive would help prevent this nightmare of pillsreplacing food becoming a reality.

79.

Peop0le already take too many pills instead of adopting a healthierlifestyle. For example, the consumption of painkillers in Britainin 1998 was 21 tablets per year for every man, woman and child inthe country. People do not need all these pills.

80.

Some might argue that the EU directive denies people’s right tofreedom of choice. However, there are many legal examples for suchintervention when it is in the individual’s best interests. We nowmake people wear seatbelts rather than allowing them to choose todo so. Opposing the EU directive would mean beneficial measureslike this would be threatened.

Section D

Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer thequestions or complete the statements in the fewest possiblewords.

A study of more than five million books, both fiction andnon-fiction, has found a marked decline in the use of emotionalwords over time. The researchers form the University of Bristolused Google Ngram Viewer, a facility for finding the frequency ofterms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particularwords identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadnessand surprise.

They found that almost all of the categories (类别) showed a drop inthese “mood words” over time. Only in the category of fear wasthere an increase in usage.

“It is a steady and continuous decrease,” said Dr Alberto Acerbi.He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in theposition occupied by literature, in a crowded media landscape. “Onething could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw thestart of other media. Maybe these media—movies, radio, drama—hadmore emotional content than books.”

Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend,the research, published in the journal PLOS One, found thatthey also exhibited another interesting behaviour:the ratio(比率) between the two varied greatly, apparently mirroringhistorical events.

During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peakthat would not occur again until before the recent financial crash.But the ratio plunged at the height of the Second World War.Nevertheless, the researchers held a reserved opinion about theirclaim that their result reflected wider social trends. In thepaper, they even argue that the reverse could be true.

“It has been suggested, for example, that it was thesuppression (压抑) of desire in ordinary Elizabethan Englishlife that increased demand for writing ‘filled with romance andsex’… perhaps,” they conclude, “songs and books may not reflect thereal population any more than catwalk models reflect the averagebody.”

(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NOMORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

II. Guided Writing

Possible version 1

Dear Sir or Madam:

I have heard from the newspaper that you, the Shanghai Museum,are planning to organize a famous painting exhibition. And you arenow collecting suggestions about whether to hold it in your museumor the art gallery. I am now writing to express my opinion that theexhibition should be held in the museum. My reasons are asfollows.

In terms of convenience, the museum has more advantages over thegallery. First, it is located in the People’s Square, which is thecenter of the city. So people can enjoy convenient transportationsuch as the subway line 1, 2 and 8, which are available to peoplefrom nearly every district. It saves the visitors a lot of time andtrouble of traffic jam. Another advantage is that it is easy to befound by those from other provinces around the country. After allthe Shanghai Museum is a landmark of our city familiar to nearlyevery Chinese.

With regard to the professional function, though it seemsnatural that an art exhibition be set in the gallery, in a moregeneral sense, I think the museum has more advanced facilities tomake the exhibition successful and to preserve the paintings well.As we know, the museum has successfully held many national andinternational exhibitions and its advertising and organizingexperience is of no match; also its staff is qualified andprofessional.

To sum up, I am sure the show will be fantastic if it is held inShanghai Museum.(248 words)Possible version2

To whom it may concern:

I’ve learned that an art exhibition is to be held and thatyou’re collecting suggestions on its location. I’m writing thisletter to share with you my opinions.

In my opinion, it is more advisable to hold the art exhibitionin Shanghai Museum than in community libraries. My reasons are asfollows.

On one hand, it is more convenient for people to get to ShanghaiMuseum which is located in the center of the city. And the museumis much more spacious than community libraries, which providesvisitors with a more comfortable environment for appreciatingart.

On the other hand, as a well-known museum, Shanghai Museum ismore professional and experienced in holding art exhibitions. Itsprofessional security guards and advanced facilities can betterprotect those famous paintings from being damaged or stolen.

Therefore, I suggest the exhibition be held in the museum.

1.词汇考核。除了考核学生基础词汇的词义、词性外,今年的考题更加侧重考核学生在语境中对词汇的理解,有利于引导教师在平时教学中利用真实语境进行教学。

2.实用文阅读考核。除了考核学生对文本的基本理解外,今年的考题更加注重英语在真实生活中的应用性,有利于引导教师平时适当选用各种英语题材进行阅读教学,学以致用。

3.简答题考核。除了考核学生对基本信息的获取能力外,今年的考题更加注重检测学生的理解、归纳能力,有利于引导教师在平时的教学中注重培养学生的整体阅读能力和归纳、表述等能力。

4.汉译英考核。除了常规考查学生的基本翻译能力(如单词拼写、词汇搭配、举行运用等)之外,如单词拼写、词汇搭配、句型运用等,今年的考题更加注重考查学生所学知识的综合运用能力,英语的习惯表达、尤其注重中英文表达上的文化差异,有利于引导教师平时在教学中注重知识与能力训练的同时,注重汉英表达差异,使英语表达更为地道。

5.写作考核。除了一如既往考查学生准确和流畅的英语表达能力外,今年的写作考题减轻了学生审题压力,注重了对学生文章的结构要求,题目既规定了要求,又不乏灵活性,给予考生充分的发挥余地。

2013年英语卷在考查语言知识的基础上,适应语言测试的趋势,也注重考核语言的运用和交际能力;通过丰富的考核内容,为不同水平的考生提供了发挥的平台,全卷视野开阔,有一定的深度和广度。试卷的难度总体与近几年持平,保持中等偏易。
