26、Do you want to go to take a vacation in Northern Ireland? If you do, here are some places where you can go.

The Sperrins, County Derry and Tyrone

The Sperrins are Northern Ireland’s largest mountains and also its least explored. Starting from Strabane in County Tyrone to the shores of Lough Neagh in the east, Northern Ireland’s largest upland area is a designated (指定的) area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Mournes, County Down

The wild scenery of the Mourne Mountains sweeps down to the sea. It is the place where C. S. Lewis found his fantastic winter-land of Narnia come to shape in his mind, which inspired him to write The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The Mourne Mountains in County Down are famous for a lot of things such as challenging peaks and clear lakes.

Dunluce Castle, County Antrim

The ruin of Dunluce Castle sees a long and amazing history. The castle was first built on the amazing coastal cliffs of north County Antrim by the MacQuillan family around 1500. The earliest written record of the castle was in 1513. The amazing history of Dunluce is matched by tales of how the castle kitchens fell into the sea one stormy night in 1639.

Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, County Antrim

Connected to the cliffs by a rope bridge across the Atlantic Ocean, Carrick-a-Rede Island (home to a single building—a fisherman’s small house) is the final destination. Suspended (悬空的) almost 100 ft(30m) above sea level, the rope bridge was first made by a fisherman 350 years ago. In 2016, Carrick-a-Rede welcomed the highest number of visitors ever to this exciting rope bridge experience.

27、The Enigma (谜）of Beauty

The search for beauty spans（跨度） centuries and continents．Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4，000 years show both men and women painting their nails and wearing makeup．In 18th-century France，wealthy noblemen wore large wigs (假发）of long，white hair to make themselves attractive．Today，people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance.

There is at least one good reason for the desire to be attractive：beauty is power．Studies suggest that good-looking people make more money，get called on more often in class，and are regarded as friendlier.

But what exactly is beauty? It's difficult to describe it clearly，and yet we know it when we see it．And our awareness of it may start at a very early age．In one set of studies，six-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs．The faces on the pictures had been rated for attractiveness by a group of college students．In the studies，the babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones.

The idea that even babies can judge appearance makes perfect sense to many researchers．In studies by psychologists，men consistently showed a preference for women with larger eyes，fuller lips，and a smaller nose and chin while women prefer men with large shoulders and a narrow waist．According to scientists，the mind unconsciously tells men and women that these traits —the full lips，clear skin，strong shoulders —equal health and genetic well-being.

Not everyone thinks the same way，however．" Our ideas can be changed by all sorts of expectations —mostly cultural，" says C． Loring Brace，an anthropologist at the University of Michigan．What is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another．Look at most Western fashion magazines：the women on the pages are thin．But is this "perfect" body type for women worldwide? Scientists' answer is no; what is considered beautiful is subjective and varies around the world． They found native peoples in southeast Peru preferred shapes regarded overweight in Western cultures.

For better or worse，beauty plays a role in our lives．But it is extremely difficult to describe exactly what makes one person attractive to another．Although there do seem to be certain physical traits considered universally appealing，it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single，uniform standard． Beauty really is，as the saying goes，in the eye of the beholder.

【1】People's ideas about beauty ________.

A. have existed since ancient times

B. can be easily described

C. have little influence on a person's success

D. are based upon strict standard.

【2】In Paragraph 3，the babies in the study ________.

A. were rated for their appearance

B. were entered in a beauty contest

C. were shown photos of a group of college students

D. were able to tell attractive faces from unattractive ones

【3】The underlined word “traits” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.

A. qualities B. measurements

C .judgments D. standards

【4】We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. the ideas of beauty vary as people grow up

B. the search for beauty is rooted in lack of confidence

C. the standards for beauty are based on scientific researches

D. the understanding of beauty depends on cultural backgrounds

28、How to Make Friends

Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends. Good friendship has many benefits. It offers companionship, improves selfworth and promotes good health. There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new tow, or changed our jobs or schools. Such changes often leave us without a friend. 【1】 But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends.

1. Associate with others.

The first step to making friends is associating with other people. You can go to public places to meet new people. Besides, you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places.

2. Start a conversation.

Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends. 【2】 You can always start the conversation. Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people.

3. 【3】

Choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together. Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience.

4. Let it grow.

It is a good thing to stay in touch. However, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend. 【4】 The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally.

5. Enjoy your friendship.

The best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves. 【5】 Try not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be become the kind of friend you will want your friend to be to you.

A．Be cheerful.

B．Do things together.

C．Do not wait others to start first.

D．Try not to find fault with your friends.

E．Making new friends comes easy for some people.

F．For a friendship to develop you need stay in touch.

G．So you will need to give your friend time to react to you.

29、How good are we at predicting what people will do? What magazine will they buy, what music will they download，or what shoes will they choose for a party? Probably not nearly as good as we think. When it comes to human behavior, the brain is shown to have two different ways of thinking. So it doesn’t matter how old you are or how confident you are feeling. It’s all about what mood the brain is in!

A common thought process is the automatic and fast way which helps us to react quickly in dangerous situations. This is known as system 1 and dates back to the prehistoric(史前的）times when people lived with a natural awareness of the dangers around them—bad weather, falling rocks and trees，and threatening animals. Nowadays we still have the ability to react so rapidly and naturally to situations that it can feel like you’re not thinking at all. Have you ever found yourself giving in to temptation（诱惑）and unable to say “no” to buying that new jacket in the window? This is because system 1 is in control—a human characteristic which the world of advertising likes to make the most of!

System 2 is the opposite. It’s a slow thought process that requires us to pay attention and concentrate. This way of thinking helps us to make sensible long-term decisions like choosing which university to study at, or what type of car to buy. The problem is that system 2 often starts to feel boring and so system 1 takes over. How often have you put down your homework or put off doing important jobs to go on Facebook or watch a TV soap?

We like to think that we go through life mainly using system 2. However, sometimes it’s system 1 that makes the right decision but system 2 that gets it wrong. For example, sports teams put a lot of effort into a game plan, but often it’s the unconscious（无意识的）human wish to do something differently that often leads to an unexpected win. This can also lead to the common mistaken idea that your successful decisions show your skill and talent，when in fact they are just luck.

Perhaps one day scientists will be able to predict what decisions people will make by measuring brain activity. In one study, volunteers were monitored with brain-scanning equipment. They were asked to press either a left or a right button whenever they wanted. The researchers found they could predict which button the volunteers would press up to seven seconds before it happened—your brain seems to know what it will do before you do! Some scientists say our brains are just machines and we are not really in control of what’s going on. Let’s hope they’re wrong! It’s one thing to be able to tell which of two buttons a person will press, but I don’t like the idea that science could one day tell me what decisions I will make in my life before I’ve even had the chance to make them!

【1】How does the author feel about the idea that scientists can predict people’s decisions?

A．Disappointed.

B．Unhappy.

C．Shocked.

D．Absurd.

【2】In which case is system 1 more likely to be in control?

A．When you choose a university.

B．When you plan a birthday party.

C．When you prepare for a performance.

D．When you buy a jacket in the window.

【3】Why is the example of sports teams mentioned in Paragraph 4?

A．To show system 1 sometimes makes the right decision.

B．To show system 2 usually makes the wrong decision.

C．To show we go through life mainly using system 2.

D．To show people are more willing to use system 1.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．Two Systems of Thought

B．Early Brain Development

C．Importance of Planning

D．Two Ways of Dealing with Danger

30、When I was a junior in high school, I was nominated (提名) to run for vice president of the Student Council at the start of our senior year.

31、Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

An hour’s nap at work may help IT programmers to write better code(编码), according to recently published research. So it does the same to children in learning. Traditionally seen as the 【1】 of older people or the very young, experts now say that a midday nap can reserve information overload,【2】 information processing and aid learning. These findings from Harvard University have important implications for learning real-life skills, including those 【3】 with sports, playing a musical instrument and IT workplace situations such as complex software coding.

The studies suggest that the brain uses sleep to restore overused brain circuits and strengthen the 【4】 of actions and skills learned during the day. They have found that any amount of sleep, even a short nap, appears to improve our ability to 【5】 information and to learn. As part of the research, volunteers were trained to perform a complex visual task and were then 【6】 into three groups where some had no sleep, others a 30-minute “power” nap and another group a one-hour nap. The longer they slept, the better they performed. Researchers believe 【7】 that the brain continues to learn after training has stopped and this learning only occurs during the sleep.

According to the website www.self-hypnosis.co.un, self-hypnotism(催眠) will improve your self confidence, help you to 【8】 anxiety, sleep better, enjoy public speaking and create concentration and focus.
