Given its subject matter and time slot, A Bite of China was initially considered a "weak player" on TV. "Man is what he eats," said Ludwig Feuerbach. From its very beginning, A Bite of China is not just a documentary about food. "The scenes of digging for bamboo shoots, hanging hams, catching fish using a net, opening a steamer filled with white steamed buns, and pulling wheat dough into thin strands for noodles move us to tears. What a lovely China!" a viewer said.
A Bite of China is a serious documentary providing a unique view of Chinese as well as the relations between people and food and between people and society from the perspective of food.
The touching documentary reminds some people of their mother, and makes some realize that every grain comes from hard and laborious toil. Some people see patriotism in the documentary, and some consider it a great cultural export.
How did this documentary achieve a tremendous influence beyond its subject matter in such a short time? "It is not empty propaganda about China's splendid food culture. Instead, it shows the techniques used in making food and their production process as well as the lives of ordinary people, thus striking a chord with the audience," an Internet user said. The success of the documentary should be attributed to sincerity and reality.
It is said sarcastically that Americans like to shoot sci-fi films because they have no history, while
Chinese like to shoot time-travel dramas to the past because they have no future. The correctness of this
arbitrary conclusion is debatable, but it has raised a thought-provoking question. Works that are created behind closed doors and fail to reflect reality or that only focus on the luxury lives of a few people and ignore ordinary people's desire for ample food and clothing will not touch people's hearts.
"We made this documentary with our respect and love for food," said director Chen Xiaoqing. Being sincere is the most important thing for artists because they cannot move others unless they themselves are first moved, and cannot convince others unless they themselves are first convinced. Sincerity is the "secret" for making this documentary so popular, and every cultural creator should learn from its success.
58. A Bite of China has all the following emotional influences EXCEPT _______.
A. reminding people of their memories about family
B. making people treasure every gain
C. arousing people’s patriotism tom wads their country
D. calling on people to export their culture
59. Which of the following statements about A Bite of China is TRUE according to the passage?
A. It only focuses on the luxury lives of a few people in China.
B. It stresses the emotions of ordinary Chinese people in its shooting
C. It has been considered a ―week player‖ on Tv since it was produced
D. It provides a unique view of Chinese from the perspective of humanity
60. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Sincerity and reality, Great Success
B. Food and Culture, Commercial Program
C. Techniques and Art, Huge Popularity
D. Patriotism and Respect, Tremendous Influence
C
Depression can be a devastating illness, plaguing millions of people worldwide with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and fatigue. Despite numerous antidepressant drugs, as many as a third of patients don’t respond to medication. This has forced doctors to be more creative in finding different treatments for the condition. In the past two decades, researchers have tied depression to a seemingly unrelated condition:
inflammation（炎症）, the body’s natural response to stress. It could rise from injury or inflection, or even emotional issues like an unhappy marriage or problems at work. Some amount of inflammation is generally beneficial, as it increases production of cytokines (致癌因子)，proteins that help us heal and protect us from the effects of overwork.
But excessive cytokine levels, and the inflammation they bring on, could come at a cost-A number of studies suggests that high levels of cytokines could contribute to depression.
Cytokines can reach the brain several ways: directly through the blood-brain barrier or indirectly by binding to nerve fibers elsewhere, which send signals to the brain to produce the inflammation molecules. In the brain, cytokines can disturb the production and release of several important signaling chemicals, including serotonin, dopamine and glutamate, which help control emotion, appetite, sleep, learning and memory. It’s though that a lack of serotonin activity in the brain causes depression; most antidepressants increase the
activity. But cytokines also have been shown to activate stress hormone signaling in the brain, which man also serve to develop depression.
With all the evidence implicating inflammation in depression, doctors have been anxious to test
anti-inflammatory drugs as a potential treatment. Four small students published between 2006 and 2012 by research groups in Europe and Iran found that adults diagnosed with depression who took aspirin or another anti-inflammatory drug called Celecoxib, along with an antidepressant, got more relief from feelings of
sadness, hopelessness, guilt and fatigue compared with those taking an antidepressant alone. However, Andrew Miller, a professor of psychiatry at Emory University, thought something was amiss in these small, limited studies. None of them looked at whether the participants had to have high levels of cytokines before into the trap of viewing inflammatory drugs. ―Unfortunately, much of the field has fallen into the trap of viewing inflammation as the be-all, end-all,‖ Miller says. He and his colleagues wanted to see whether the effect of these drugs was limited to the depression patients with high cytokine levels, or if it helped all people diagnosed with depression.
61. Which of the following illustrated how depression is developed/
A. infection -→inflammation -→cytokine -→depression
B. stress-→overwork-→inflammation -→depression
C. cytokine-→stress -→ infection-→depression
D. inflammation -→ infection-→stress-→depression
62. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. depression will be an incurable disease for a long time
B. we have a long way to go before depression can be satisfying treated
C. people who are hard –working are more subject to depression
D. aspirin can effectively help relieve people of many emotional prpblems
63. The underlined word ―excessive‖ in para 3 is closest in meaning to ―________‖
A. intermediate B. mild C. appropriate D. overmuch
64. Which of the following shows the right structure of the passage?
( ①---⑤ represent para 1—

第二部分：阅读理解（第一节5小题，第二节20小题，每题2分，满分50分）
第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
When should people be made to retire? 55? 65? Should there be a compulsory (强制的) age limit? Many old people work well into their 70s and 80s, running families, countries or corporations. Other people, however, despite being fit and highly talented, are forced to retire in their fifties or even earlier because of the regulations of a company or the nation. This essay will examine whether people should be allowed to continue working as long as they want or whether they should be encouraged to retire at a particular stage.
Some people think there are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they are able. First of all, older employees have a large amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or organization if they are made to retire. A second point is that older employees are often extremely faithful employees and are more willing to carry out company policies than younger less committed staff. However, a more important point is regarding the attitudes in society to old people. To force someone to resign or retire at 60 indicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that effectively their useful life is over. Age is irrelevant to a working life. Surely if older employees are told they cannot work after 60, this is age discrimination. That they become old does not necessarily mean they are going to be sick. Old people could be more aware, experienced and committed than some youngsters.
Others, however, think that allowing older people to work indefinitely is not a good policy. Age alone is no guarantee of ability. Old people are only ambitious workaholics who are too selfish and egocentric(自我中心的) to believe that a younger person could do better. Actually, many younger employees have more experience or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area or unit for most of their working lives. Having compulsory retirement allows new ideas in an organization. In addition, without age limits, however, many people
would continue to work purely because they did not have any other plans or roles. A third point of view is that older people should be rewarded by society for their life’s labor by being given generous pensions and the freedom to enjoy their leisure. We now have youngsters who can’t find jobs because old people are choosing not to retire. Old people are not retiring because this new generation of “ old people” think they will never die due to modern advances in medicine.
With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low-level positions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. However, this can affect the older individual’s freedom and right to work and can deprive(剥夺) society of valuable experience and insights. I feel that giving workers more flexibility and choice over their retirement age will benefit society and the individual. 41. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To explain the compulsory age limit. B. To discuss the retirement age. C. To examine people’s working life. D. To introduce a particular stage.
42. Which of the following is NOT a reason for allowing old people to continue working according to the passage?
A. Their contribution should be valued. B. Their experience should be made use of. C. They can help the youngsters. D. They are loyal employees.
43. It can be inferred in the fourth passage that ______. A. the young people have more creative spirits
B. modern advances in medicine make old people never die C. pensions and freedom are not given to the old now D. old people believe that a younger person could do better 44. The passage is arranged as follows:
45. What is the author’s opinion on the retirement age?
A. The author thinks when to retire depends on the employees themselves. B. The author is against lengthening the retirement age.
C. The author thinks that retirement age varies from country to country. D. The author is in favor of allowing old people to continue working.
B

2.【题文】Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized
on your own. My mom was one of those people.
My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of
eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom
gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change
my life, ―Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work
hard enough to get it.‖
At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my
mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I
could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I
finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school — walking on my own!
When the Great Depression (大萧条) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support
both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.
Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point
occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the
second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra $2 for each
child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to
open a motel (汽车旅馆) for families that would never charge extra for children. There were
plenty of doubters at that time.
Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and
even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my
mother’s words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later,
we had the largest hotel system in the world — Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1, 759 inns
in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year.
You may not have started out life in the best situation. But if you can find a task in life worth
working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.
1. What Kemmons’ mom often told him during his childhood was ______.
A. caring B. moving C. encouraging D. interesting
2. According to the author, who played the most important role in making him walk
back to school again?
A. Doctors. B. Nurses. C. Friends. D. Mom.
3. What caused Kemmons to start a motel by himself?
A. His mom’s support.
B. His wife’s suggestion.
C. His terrible experience in the hotel.
D. His previous business success of various levels.
4. Which of the following best describes Kemmons’ mother?
A. Modest, helpful, and hard-working. B. Loving, supportive and strong-willed.
C. Careful, helpful and beautiful. D. Strict, sensitive and supportive.
5. Which of the following led to Kemmons’ success according to the passage?
A. Self-confidence, hard work, higher education and a poor family.
B. Mom’s encouragement, clear goals, self-confidence and hard work.
C. Clear goals, mom’s encouragement, a poor family and higher education.
D. Mom’s encouragement, a poor family, higher education and opportunities

Given its subject matter and time slot, A Bite of China was initially considered a "weak player" on TV. "Man is what he eats," said Ludwig Feuerbach. From its very beginning, A Bite of China is not just a documentary about food. "The scenes of digging for bamboo shoots, hanging hams, catching fish using a net, opening a steamer filled with white steamed buns, and pulling wheat dough into thin strands for noodles move us to tears. What a lovely China!" a viewer said.
A Bite of China is a serious documentary providing a unique view of Chinese as well as the relations between people and food and between people and society from the perspective of food.
The touching documentary reminds some people of their mother, and makes some realize that every grain comes from hard and laborious toil. Some people see patriotism in the documentary, and some consider it a great cultural export.
How did this documentary achieve a tremendous influence beyond its subject matter in such a short time?
"It is not empty propaganda about China's splendid food culture. Instead, it shows the techniques used in making food and their production process as well as the lives of ordinary people, thus striking a chord with the audience," an Internet user said. The success of the documentary should be attributed to sincerity and reality.
It is said sarcastically that Americans like to shoot sci-fi films because they have no history, while Chinese like to shoot time-travel dramas to the past because they have no future. The correctness of this arbitrary conclusion is debatable, but it has raised a thought-provoking question. Works that are created behind closed doors and fail to reflect reality or that only focus on the luxury lives of a few people and ignore ordinary people's desire for ample food and clothing will not touch people's hearts.
"We made this documentary with our respect and love for food," said director Chen Xiaoqing. Being sincere is the most important thing for artists because they cannot move others unless they themselves are first moved, and cannot convince others unless they themselves are first convinced. Sincerity is the "secret" for making this documentary so popular, and every cultural creator should learn from its success.
58. A Bite of China has all the following emotional influences EXCEPT _______.
A. reminding people of their memories about family
B. making people treasure every gain
C. arousing people’s patriotism tom wads their country
D. calling on people to export their culture
59. Which of the following statements about A Bite of China is TRUE according to the passage?
A. It only focuses on the luxury lives of a few people in China.
B. It stresses the emotions of ordinary Chinese people in its shooting
C. It has been considered a ―week player‖ on Tv since it was produced
D. It provides a unique view of Chinese from the perspective of humanity
60. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Sincerity and reality, Great Success
B. Food and Culture, Commercial Program
C. Techniques and Art, Huge Popularity
D. Patriotism and Respect, Tremendous Influence
C
Depression can be a devastating illness, plaguing millions of people worldwide with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and fatigue. Despite numerous antidepressant drugs, as many as a third of patients don’t respond to medication. This has forced doctors to be more creative in finding different treatments for the condition.
In the past two decades, researchers have tied depression to a seemingly unrelated condition:
inflammation（炎症）, the body’s natural response to stress. It could rise from injury or inflection, or even emotional issues like an unhappy marriage or problems at work. Some amount of inflammation is generally beneficial, as it increases production of cytokines (致癌因子)，proteins that help us heal and protect us from the effects of overwork.
But excessive cytokine levels, and the inflammation they bring on, could come at a cost-A number of studies suggests that high levels of cytokines could contribute to depression.
Cytokines can reach the brain several ways: directly through the blood-brain barrier or indirectly by binding to nerve fibers elsewhere, which send signals to the brain to produce the inflammation molecules. In the brain, cytokines can disturb the production and release of several important signaling chemicals, including serotonin, dopamine and glutamate, which help control emotion, appetite, sleep, learning and memory. It’s though that a lack of serotonin activity in the brain causes depression; most antidepressants increase the activity. But cytokines also have been shown to activate stress hormone signaling in the brain, which man also serve to develop depression.
With all the evidence implicating inflammation in depression, doctors have been anxious to test
anti-inflammatory drugs as a potential treatment. Four small students published between 2006 and 2012 by research groups in Europe and Iran found that adults diagnosed with depression who took aspirin or another anti-inflammatory drug called Celecoxib, along with an antidepressant, got more relief from feelings of sadness, hopelessness, guilt and fatigue compared with those taking an antidepressant alone. However, Andrew Miller, a professor of psychiatry at Emory University, thought something was amiss in these small, limited studies. None of them looked at whether the participants had to have high levels of cytokines before into the trap of viewing inflammatory drugs. ―Unfortunately, much of the field has fallen into the trap of viewing inflammation as the be-all, end-all,‖ Miller says. He and his colleagues wanted to see whether the effect of these drugs was limited to the depression patients with high cytokine levels, or if it helped all people diagnosed with depression.
61. Which of the following illustrated how depression is developed/
A. infection -→inflammation -→cytokine -→depression
B. stress-→overwork-→inflammation -→depression
C. cytokine-→stress -→ infection-→depression
D. inflammation -→ infection-→stress-→depression
62. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. depression will be an incurable disease for a long time
B. we have a long way to go before depression can be satisfying treated
C. people who are hard –working are more subject to depression
D. aspirin can effectively help relieve people of many emotional prpblems
63. The underlined word ―excessive‖ in para 3 is closest in meaning to ―________‖
A. intermediate B. mild C. appropriate D. overmuch
64. Which of the following shows the right structure of the passage?
( ①---⑤ represent para 1—5 )

Given its subject matter and time slot, A Bite of China was initially considered a "weak player" on TV.
"Man is what he eats," said Ludwig Feuerbach. From its very beginning, A Bite of China is not just a documentary about food. "The scenes of digging for bamboo shoots, hanging hams, catching fish using a net, opening a steamer filled with white steamed buns, and pulling wheat dough into thin strands for noodles move us to tears. What a lovely China!" a viewer said.
A Bite of China is a serious documentary providing a unique view of Chinese as well as the relations between people and food and between people and society from the perspective of food.
The touching documentary reminds some people of their mother, and makes some realize that every grain comes from hard and laborious toil. Some people see patriotism in the documentary, and some consider it a great cultural export.
How did this documentary achieve a tremendous influence beyond its subject matter in such a short time?
"It is not empty propaganda about China's splendid food culture. Instead, it shows the techniques used in making food and their production process as well as the lives of ordinary people, thus striking a chord with the audience," an Internet user said. The success of the documentary should be attributed to sincerity and reality.
It is said sarcastically that Americans like to shoot sci-fi films because they have no history, while Chinese like to shoot time-travel dramas to the past because they have no future. The correctness of this arbitrary conclusion is debatable, but it has raised a thought-provoking question. Works that are created behind closed doors and fail to reflect reality or that only focus on the luxury lives of a few people and ignore ordinary people's desire for ample food and clothing will not touch people's hearts.
"We made this documentary with our respect and love for food," said director Chen Xiaoqing. Being sincere is the most important thing for artists because they cannot move others unless they themselves are first moved, and cannot convince others unless they themselves are first convinced. Sincerity is the "secret" for making this documentary so popular, and every cultural creator should learn from its success.
58. A Bite of China has all the following emotional influences EXCEPT _______.
A. reminding people of their memories about family
B. making people treasure every gain
C. arousing people’s patriotism tom wads their country
D. calling on people to export their culture
59. Which of the following statements about A Bite of China is TRUE according to the passage?
A. It only focuses on the luxury lives of a few people in China.
B. It stresses the emotions of ordinary Chinese people in its shooting
C. It has been considered a ―week player‖ on Tv since it was produced
D. It provides a unique view of Chinese from the perspective of humanity
60. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Sincerity and reality, Great Success
B. Food and Culture, Commercial Program
C. Techniques and Art, Huge Popularity
D. Patriotism and Respect, Tremendous Influence
C
Depression can be a devastating illness, plaguing millions of people worldwide with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and fatigue. Despite numerous antidepressant drugs, as many as a third of patients don’t respond to medication. This has forced doctors to be more creative in finding different treatments for the condition.
In the past two decades, researchers have tied depression to a seemingly unrelated condition: inflammation（炎症）, the body’s natural response to stress. It could rise from injury or inflection, or even emotional issues like an unhappy marriage or problems at work. Some amount of inflammation is generally beneficial, as it increases production of cytokines (致癌因子)，proteins that help us heal and protect us from the effects of overwork.
But excessive cytokine levels, and the inflammation they bring on, could come at a cost-A number of studies suggests that high levels of cytokines could contribute to depression.
Cytokines can reach the brain several ways: directly through the blood-brain barrier or indirectly by binding to nerve fibers elsewhere, which send signals to the brain to produce the inflammation molecules. In the brain, cytokines can disturb the production and release of several important signaling chemicals, including serotonin, dopamine and glutamate, which help control emotion, appetite, sleep, learning and memory. It’s though that a lack of serotonin activity in the brain causes depression; most antidepressants increase the activity. But cytokines also have been shown to activate stress hormone signaling in the brain, which man also serve to develop depression.
With all the evidence implicating inflammation in depression, doctors have been anxious to test anti-inflammatory drugs as a potential treatment. Four small students published between 2006 and 2012 by research groups in Europe and Iran found that adults diagnosed with depression who took aspirin or another anti-inflammatory drug called Celecoxib, along with an antidepressant, got

But excessive cytokine levels, and the inflammation they bring on, could come at a cost-A number of studies suggests that high levels of cytokines could contribute to depression.
Cytokines can reach the brain several ways: directly through the blood-brain barrier or indirectly by binding to nerve fibers elsewhere, which send signals to the brain to produce the inflammation molecules. In the brain, cytokines can disturb the production and release of several important signaling chemicals, including serotonin, dopamine and glutamate, which help control emotion, appetite, sleep, learning and memory. It’s though that a lack of serotonin activity in the brain causes depression; most antidepressants increase the activity. But cytokines also have been shown to activate stress hormone signaling in the brain, which man also serve to develop depression.
With all the evidence implicating inflammation in depression, doctors have been anxious to test anti-inflammatory drugs as a potential treatment. Four small students published between 2006 and 2012 by research groups in Europe and Iran found that adults diagnosed with depression who took aspirin or another anti-inflammatory drug called Celecoxib, along with an antidepressant, got

Given its subject matter and time slot, A Bite of China was initially considered a ―weak player‖on TV. ―Man is what he eats,‖ said Ludwig Feuerbach. From its very beginning, A Bite of China is not just a documentary about food. "The scenes of digging for bamboo shoots, hanging hams, catching fish using a net, opening a steamer filled with white steamed buns, and pulling wheat dough into thin strands for noodles move us to tears. What a lovely China!" a viewer said.
A Bite of China is a serious documentary providing a unique view of Chinese as well as the relations between people and food and between people and society from the perspective of food.
The touching documentary reminds some people of their mother, and makes some realize that every grain comes from hard and laborious toil. Some people see patriotism in the documentary, and some consider it a great cultural export.
How did this documentary achieve a tremendous influence beyond its subject matter in such a short time? "It is not empty propaganda about China's splendid food culture. Instead, it shows the techniques used in making food and their production process as well as the lives of ordinary people, thus striking a chord with the audience," an Internet user said. The success of the documentary should be attributed to sincerity and reality.
It is said sarcastically that Americans like to shoot sci-fi films because they have no history, while Chinese like to shoot time-travel dramas to the past because they have no future. The correctness of this arbitrary conclusion is debatable, but it has raised a thought-provoking question. Works that are created behind closed doors and fail to reflect reality or that only focus on the luxury lives of a few people and ignore ordinary people's desire for ample food and clothing will not touch people's hearts.
―We made this documentary with our respect and love for food,‖ said director Chen Xiaoqing. Being
moved, and cannot convince others unless they themselves are first convinced. Sincerity is the "secret" for making this documentary so popular, and every cultural creator should learn from its success.
58. A Bite of China has all the following emotional influences EXCEPT _______. A. reminding people of their memories about family B. making people treasure every gain
C. arousing people’s patriotism tom wads their country D. calling on people to export their culture
59. Which of the following statements about A Bite of China is TRUE according to the passage? A. It only focuses on the luxury lives of a few people in China. B. It stresses the emotions of ordinary Chinese people in its shooting C. It has been considered a ―week player‖ on TV since it was produced D. It provides a unique view of Chinese from the perspective of humanity 60. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Sincerity and reality, Great Success B. Food and Culture, Commercial Program C. Techniques and Art, Huge Popularity D. Patriotism and Respect, Tremendous Influence
C
Depression can be a devastating illness, plaguing millions of people worldwide with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and fatigue. Despite numerous antidepressant drugs, as many as a third of patients don’t respond to medication. This has forced doctors to be more creative in finding different treatments for the condition. In the past two decades, researchers have tied depression to a seemingly unrelated condition: inflammation（炎症）, the body’s natural response to stress. It could rise from injury or inflection, or even emotional issues like an unhappy marriage or problems at work. Some amount of inflammation is generally beneficial, as it increases production of cytokines (致癌因子)，proteins that help us heal and protect us from the effects of overwork. But excessive cytokine levels, and the inflammation they bring on, could come at a cost-A number of studies suggests that high levels of cytokines could contribute to depression.
Cytokines can reach the brain several ways: directly through the blood-brain barrier or indirectly by binding to nerve fibers elsewhere, which send signals to the brain to produce the inflammation molecules. In the brain, cytokines can disturb the production and release of several important signaling chemicals, including serotonin, dopamine and glutamate, which help control emotion, appetite, sleep, learning and memory.

Given its subject matter and time slot, A Bite of China was initially considered a "weak player" on TV. "Man is what he eats," said Ludwig Feuerbach. From its very beginning, A Bite of China is not just a documentary about food. "The scenes of digging for bamboo shoots, hanging hams, catching fish using a net, opening a steamer filled with white steamed buns, and pulling wheat dough into thin strands for noodles move us to tears. What a lovely China!" a viewer said.
A Bite of China is a serious documentary providing a unique view of Chinese as well as the relations between people and food and between people and society from the perspective of food.
The touching documentary reminds some people of their mother, and makes some realize that every grain comes from hard and laborious toil. Some people see patriotism in the documentary, and some consider it a great cultural export.
How did this documentary achieve a tremendous influence beyond its subject matter in such a short time? "It is not empty propaganda about China's splendid food culture. Instead, it shows the techniques used in making food and their production process as well as the lives of ordinary people, thus striking a chord with the audience," an Internet user said. The success of the documentary should be attributed to sincerity and reality.
It is said sarcastically that Americans like to shoot sci-fi films because they have no history, while
Chinese like to shoot time-travel dramas to the past because they have no future. The correctness of this
arbitrary conclusion is debatable, but it has raised a thought-provoking question. Works that are created behind closed doors and fail to reflect reality or that only focus on the luxury lives of a few people and ignore ordinary people's desire for ample food and clothing will not touch people's hearts.
"We made this documentary with our respect and love for food," said director Chen Xiaoqing. Being sincere is the most important thing for artists because they cannot move others unless they themselves are first moved, and cannot convince others unless they themselves are first convinced. Sincerity is the "secret" for making this documentary so popular, and every cultural creator should learn from its success.
58. A Bite of China has all the following emotional influences EXCEPT _______.
A. reminding people of their memories about family
B. making people treasure every gain
C. arousing people’s patriotism tom wads their country
D. calling on people to export their culture
59. Which of the following statements about A Bite of China is TRUE according to the passage?
A. It only focuses on the luxury lives of a few people in China.
B. It stresses the emotions of ordinary Chinese people in its shooting
C. It has been considered a ―week player‖ on Tv since it was produced
D. It provides a unique view of Chinese from the perspective of humanity
60. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Sincerity and reality, Great Success
B. Food and Culture, Commercial Program
C. Techniques and Art, Huge Popularity
D. Patriotism and Respect, Tremendous Influence
C
Depression can be a devastating illness, plaguing millions of people worldwide with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and fatigue. Despite numerous antidepressant drugs, as many as a third of patients don’t respond to medication. This has forced doctors to be more creative in finding different treatments for the condition. In the past two decades, researchers have tied depression to a seemingly unrelated condition:
inflammation（炎症）, the body’s natural response to stress. It could rise from injury or inflection, or even emotional issues like an unhappy marriage or problems at work. Some amount of inflammation is generally beneficial, as it increases production of cytokines (致癌因子)，proteins that help us heal and protect us from the effects of overwork.
But excessive cytokine levels, and the inflammation they bring on, could come at a cost-A number of studies suggests that high levels of cytokines could contribute to depression.
Cytokines can reach the brain several ways: directly through the blood-brain barrier or indirectly by binding to nerve fibers elsewhere, which send signals to the brain to produce the inflammation molecules. In the brain, cytokines can disturb the production and release of several important signaling chemicals, including serotonin, dopamine and glutamate, which help control emotion, appetite, sleep, learning and memory. It’s though that a lack of serotonin activity in the brain causes depression; most antidepressants increase the
activity. But cytokines also have been shown to activate stress hormone signaling in the brain, which man also serve to develop depression.
With all the evidence implicating inflammation in depression, doctors have been anxious to test
anti-inflammatory drugs as a potential treatment. Four small students published between 2006 and 2012 by research groups in Europe and Iran found that adults diagnosed with depression who took aspirin or another anti-inflammatory drug called Celecoxib, along with an antidepressant, got more relief from feelings of
sadness, hopelessness, guilt and fatigue compared with those taking an antidepressant alone. However, Andrew Miller, a professor of psychiatry at Emory University, thought something was amiss in these small, limited studies. None of them looked at whether the participants had to have high levels of cytokines before into the trap of viewing inflammatory drugs. ―Unfortunately, much of the field has fallen into the trap of viewing inflammation as the be-all, end-all,‖ Miller says. He and his colleagues wanted to see whether the effect of these drugs was limited to the depression patients with high cytokine levels, or if it helped all people diagnosed with depression.
61. Which of the following illustrated how depression is developed/
A. infection -→inflammation -→cytokine -→depression
B. stress-→overwork-→inflammation -→depression
C. cytokine-→stress -→ infection-→depression
D. inflammation -→ infection-→stress-→depression
62. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. depression will be an incurable disease for a long time
B. we have a long way to go before depression can be satisfying treated
C. people who are hard –working are more subject to depression
D. aspirin can effectively help relieve people of many emotional prpblems
63. The underlined word ―excessive‖ in para 3 is closest in meaning to ―________‖
A. intermediate B. mild C. appropriate D. overmuch
64. Which of the following shows the right structure of the passage?
( ①---⑤ represent para 1—
5 )
D
―Have you put any salt in it?‖
―Certainly not, ma’am,‖ answered Marie, amazed by the question. ―You told me yourself that I was never to put salt in it.‖
Upon this, Madame Duparc snatched up the saucepan without saying another word, turned to the cupboard, and stretched out her hand toward one of four salt-cellars which always stood there. The hasty-pudding made, Marie poured it from the saucepan into a soup-plate which her mistress held.
Madame Duparc herself then took it to her father, Monsieur De Beaulieu. Then she and her daughter, and one of her sons, remained with the old man while he was eating his breakfast. Marie, left in the kitchen, prepared to clean the saucepan; but, before she could do so, she was suddenly called in two different directions by Madame De Beaulieu and Madame Duparc. The old lady wished to be taken to mass, and her mistress wanted to send her on a number of errands. It was half-past eleven in the forenoon before she got back to the kitchen.
The first news that met her on her return was that Monsieur De Beaulieu had been suffering, ever since nine o’clock, from a violent attack of vomiting and colic. Madame Duparc ordered her to help the old man to bed immediately; and inquired, when these directions had been followed, whether Marie felt capable of looking after him herself, or whether she would prefer that a nurse should be sent for. Being a kind-hearted, willing girl, always anxious to make herself useful, Marie replied that she would gladly undertake the nursing of the old man; and thereupon her bed was moved at once into Monsieur De Beaulieu’room.
Meanwhile Madame Duparc fetched from a neighboring apothecary’s one of the apprentices(学徒) of the shop to see her father. The apprentice was quite unfit to meet the emergency of the case, which was certainly serious enough to require the attention of his master, if not of a regularly qualified physician. Instead of applying and internal remedies, the apprentice stupidly tried blistering. This course of treatment proved utterly useless; but no better advice was called in. After he had suffered for hours without relief, Monsieur De Beaulieu began to sink rapidly toward the afternoon. At half-past five o’clock he had ceased to exist.
This shocking catastrophe, startling and suspicious as it was, did not appear to disturb the nerves of Madame Duparc. She lost no time in sending for the nearest nurse to lay out the body of Monsieur De Beaulieu. On entering the chamber of death, the nurse found Marie there alone, praying by the old man’s bedside. ―He died suddenly, did he not?‖ said the nurse.‖Very suddenly,‖ answered Marie. ―He was walking about only yesterday in perfect health.‖ Soon afterward the time came when it was customary to prepare supper. Marie went into the kitchen mechanically, to get the meal ready. Madame Duparc, her daughter, and her youngest son, sat down to it as usual. Madame De Beaulieu, overwhelmed by the dreadful death of her husband, was incapable of joining them.
When supper was over, Marie assisted the old lady to bed. Then, worn out though she was with fatigue, she went back to the nurse to keep her company in watching by the dead body. Monsieur De Beaulieu had been kind to Marie, and had spoken gratefully of the little attentions she had shown him. She remembered this tenderly now that he was no more; and she could not find it in her heart to leave a hired mourner to be the only watcher by his death-bed. All that night she remained in the room, entirely ignorant of what was passing the while in every other part of the house— her own little bedroom included, as a matter of course.
About seven o’clock the next morning, after sitting up all night, she went back again wearily to the kitchen to begin her day’s work. Her mistress joined her there, and saluted her instantly with a scolding.
―You are the most careless, slovenly girl I ever met with.‖ Said Madame Duparc.‖ Look at your dress; how can you expect to be decent on a Sunday, if you wear your best pair of pockets on week-days?‖

A. Salt was something necessary to make the hasty-pudding.
B. Madame Duparc deliberately sprinkled salt into the saucepan.
