The best family vacation that I ever had was going on a road trip to Myrtle Beach. The trip was for 2 weeks during the March break from school. This trip was probably about 20 years ago so it was before the time of things like portable video games and being able to watch movies in the back seat.
    So to pass the many hours of travel my brother and I had to entertain ourselves and each other. My mum would set the back seat up so that it was our own little playroom. She would pack everything up so that we had a big level area to play in. We would play cards and board games.
    When it got to the point where we were at each other’s throats we would be sent back to our own side of the seat and would be forced to either nap (打盹）or read by ourselves until we could be friendly to each other again. I can remember us playing for quite some time when we turned the back seat into a spaceship and traveled around the earth.
    Another time we turned it into a kitchen and had a bake-off (食品烘烤赛). But the thing that I remember the most and that gave us many hours of enjoyment was using each other’s faces as silly Plasticine(普莱斯蒂辛橡皮泥) and making funny faces. We would see how far we could stretch each other’s mouths open, see how thin we could make the other’s eye by pulling on it. We would keep going until one of us begged for mercy because we had to give our faces a rest.
   So while I can remember us having a great time on the beach, laughing a lot trying to put the tent up in the rain, what I remember the most of that trip and what always makes me smile the most is remembering the pain that our faces would be in after the trip.
4. What did the author do when traveling to Myrtle Beach?
  A. Watch movies.                        B. Play video games.
  C. Had fun with his brother.                D. Packed things up to amuse himself.
5. What does the author mean by saying "we were at each other’s throats"?
  A. We were fighting with each other         B. We used up our skills.
  C. We were quite out of breath.             D. We were about to fall asleep.
6. Which of the following titles would best suit the passage?
  A. An Unforgettable Family Travel            

B. What Is the Most Meaningful Journey
C. The Good Old Days Never to Be Forgotten   

D. How to Kill Time while Traveling in the Past

C.

   We often just use our sense of sight, touch, smell, and taste to eat food. But what about our sense of hearing? Does sound also affect our dining experience?
   A new report answers, “yes,” it does. 
   That answer comes from researchers at Brigham Young University and Colorado State University in the United States. They found that hearing is important in the eating experience.
   Hearing is often called “the forgotten food sense,” says Ryan Elder. Elder is an assistant professor of marketing at Brigham Young University’s Marriott School of Management. He says that if people notice the sound the food makes as they eat it, they might eat less.
   On the other hand, watching loud television or listening to loud music while eating can hide such noises. And this could lead to overeating.
   For the study，the researchers wanted to test whether the sounds of eating had any effect on how much a person ate. During the experiments, the test subjects wore headphones and listened to noise at either a high or low audio level. Then researchers gave them a crunchy snack: pretzels (脆饼干). The study found that subjects who listened to the higher volume noise ate more pretzels than those with the low audio levels.
   Elder says that when hiding the sounds of eating, like when you watch television or listen to loud music while eating, we take away the sense of hearing. And this may cause you to eat more than you would normally.
   The researchers are calling this, the “crunch effect (咀嚼声奇效).”
   The researchers admit that the effects may not seem like much at one meal. But over a week, a month, or a year, all that food can really add up.
7. The text is especially helpful for those who care about  _______.

A. healthy eating    B. food cooking       C. weight losing     D. food tasting
8. Which sense is often ignored in the eating experience?
  A. Sight           B. Smell.           C. Touch.           D. Hearing.
9. The reason why the researchers gave the subjects “pretzels” might be that ______.
  A. they tasted delicious                   B. they could make a loud noise
  C. they were cheap                         D. they could be eaten a lot
10. According to the study, if we want to eat less, we should _______.
  A. listen to ourselves eat                  B. listen to loud music
  C. watch violent television                 D. wear headphone

第三部分：阅读理解填词（共10题，每小题2分，满分20）

One year ago, I was sent to work a  26  in an American company. I had to visit my boss first. It was raining heavily that day. T  27  I was holding an umbrella, my trouser legs as well as my shoes and socks still got wet. Entering the building, when I s  28  the umbrella and stamped(跺) my feet, I caught sight of my boss walking in. Then, I i  29  went to meet him in his office and introduced

m  30  to him. He said, “Yes, I recognize you. Got your feet wet?” I lowered my head to look at my wet trouser legs and I said helplessly, “Yeah. It’s raining cats and d  31  , isn’t it?” Staring at me for a moment, the boss said nothing with a smile.

L  32  on, I mentioned the incident of meeting boss to my colleagues. And I realized that I had made a big fool of myself. It turns out that “Get one’s feet wet” is an American slang (俚语)，with the meaning of starting learning something. However, I considered myself humorous and replied with a slang sentence, w  33  describes the rain falling heavily. This was completely o  34  the point. I am lucky that the boss is really gentle and did not p  35  it out at once.
