参考答案：

In recent years, internet language has been updated faster and faster. Many young people like to chat in their daily and internet talk with these words such as “zhong me le” and “you mu you”. Different people hold different opinions on this matter.

Some think that it is fashionable for the users to speak with these modern words. And at the same

time, we can find some friends on the Internet who share the same interests with us. But some other people are against it, saying that parents will have great difficulties in communicating with their children who talk with those words. Besides, the incorrect usage of language is not beneficial to children’s study of Chinese, since they mislead the children a lot.

As far as I’m concerned, we should know clearly what all these words mean but not write with them in formal writing. 三、 阅读理解

21. 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp

Everyone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit—and that can be a very annoying thing. 71 Read on for some techniques worth trying. 1． 72

People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease (早老性痴呆症), according to a recent study. 73 Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do. There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better. In other words, keep your brain looking forward.

2．Go for a walk.

Mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels. In fact，exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain. 74

3．Learn something new.

Take a Spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to play cards. A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind. But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time. 75 Or go dancing with your friends.

A．Focus on the future.

B．This can be especially harmful to the aged. C．It should be something like learning gardening. D．So take a few minutes each day to do some reading.

E．But don't worry if your schedule isn't filled with life-changing events. F．Luckily, research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments. G．In other words, when you take care of your body, you take care of your brain.

22. Many of us feel uneasy when someone stands too close to us, talks to us too loudly or makes eye contact(接触) with us for too long. But have you ever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable?

It’s all about personal peace, which means not only an imaginary space around the body, but also the space around all the senses. People feel that their space is being violated(侵犯) when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume(香水) makes you feel angry.

Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire(渴望) to have space to themselves. In a survey （调查）by TripAdvisor, a travel website, people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food.

Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers.Go and watch a library table. You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first, because they are the farthest way. What if someone sits opposite to you? Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall.

Preference(偏好) for personal space are different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin(拉丁人的) cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other. 60. The writer mainly _________ in this article. A. tells us how to achieve personal space B. explains what personal space people need is C. introduces some knowledge about personal space D. argues for the importance of keeping personal space

61. Who might feel his personal space is safe according to the passage? A. A person who has to sit next to a lady putting on strong perfume. B. A person who has been watched by a stranger for a long time.

C. A person who hears strange noises when reading at home. D. A Latin boy who is chatting with a friend sitting close to him. 62. What can we know from the survey by TripAdvisor?

A. People need a smaller personal space in recent times than before. B. People have a strong desire for personal space in recent times. C. There are not enough seats on the plane to meet people’s needs. D. Food service is better provided than seats on the plane. 63. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses.B. If you hold newspapers on the bus, your personal space won’t be violated. C. People usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space. D. Different cultures share the same preferences for personal space. 参考答案： CDBC 略
