12. （本题10分）     Jill stared at the wall sadly.Pedro，her lab mate，hesitated before whispering， "Jill，what's up？" Jill opened her mouth slowly and answered， "Nothing，thanks!" She slowly turned back to her computer，leaving Pedro puzzled.
   Originally from Argentina，Pedro spent the first 2 years of his Ph.D．in Germany before his adviser moved the lab to the United States.Jill is new in the lab.Until now，she seemed like the most easygoing person he could imagine.And then Pedro decided to invite her to have tea together outside.Sitting in a quiet corner of their busy campus，Pedro realized what had happened to Jill.
   Jill had been busy writing an application for her first research grant.She wanted to get some feedback from her adviser.She was happy when she got the draft back，but she didn't like what she saw—15 pages full of pure criticism.
   Pedro fell silent and wondered how to approach the situation.Finally，he turned to Jill and said， "When I worked in his lab at first，I secretly called him Mr.Ice Age.But now I consider him to be kind-hearted.His character is upright and he cares about his lab members.When he gives feedback，he's direct，which is a cultural thing.He grew up in Germany，where the cultural standards around criticism are different."
   Pedro went on to talk about how he felt after moving here.The Americans and Germans approached work discussions similarly by using a direct approach.However，things sometimes began to diverge when it came to negative feedback.For him，the biggest challenge at the beginning of graduate school was the lack of personal connection. "When I first met the boss，he just told me about the project and wished me good luck.That was it."
   "I did my Ph.D．in Spain.On the first day，we had a huge brunch together to celebrate my arrival." Jill told him.Pedro smiled. "That is what we would do in my home country as well." "They do it different everywhere，don't they？" "Yes，they do，" answered Pedro.
（1）Why did Jill feel sad according to the text？
A．Her application was refused.B．She made mistakes in her research.
C．She was criticized for her application.D．She lacked confidence in her research.
（2）What can we learn about Jill's adviser from the text？
A．He likes to find fault with his students.
B．He is good at correcting others' mistakes.
C．He is an upright but mean professor.
D．He is direct about his lab members' problems.
（3）What does the underlined word "diverged" in Paragraph 5 mean？
A．Extend.B．Differ.C．Improve.D．Pause.
（4）What might Jill come to realize at last？
A．The cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings.
B．Everyone should work to understand one another better.

13. （本题10分）     It was the American sitcom（情景戏剧） that influenced a generation.The six stars of Friends went their separate ways after 237 episodes and a decade together as flatrates，sharing their lives，loves and careers in a New York apartment.
    "Friends had a huge influence on American TV history"，said Steve Beverly，professor of communication arts. "This group of six reflected what people their age experienced in their daily lives，so viewers could understand them easily. "
    We all wanted a life like theirs—the cool New York flat with table football and easy chairs，and the social circle of beautiful，supportive friends.We also wanted to drink endless coffee，which was one example of how the show changed our lives.Even the haircut of Rachel—one of the six—was copied by millions of women.
    The show has been credited with influencing how many of us speak.Researchers analysed every episode to explore whether popular culture influenced how we speak.Before the show，people usually put very or really before an adjective.On Friends，they used so. "This guy is so cool， "they said，and now we all say it.
    The show enjoyed a huge increase in ratings after the 11 September terrorist attacks，as sad New Yorkers struggled to make sense of the real horrors that had unfolded around them.In the show，they sought the return of a feel-good factor，according to Robert Thompson，professor of television and popular culture. "Friends is set not in the real New York，but in the fantasy New York where everybody leaves their doors unlocked and people don't fly planes into buildings， "he said.
    Friends is more than just a sitcom；it's a way of life.Our attitudes to the Friends？lives is a mixture of envy 'How do they get to sit on sofas all day drinking coffee？ "and disdain： "Don't they have anything better to do with their time，like earn a living to pay for that Manhattan apartment？" Anyway，although Friends came to an end long ago，it will last forever.

（1）According to Steve Beverly，why did many people like Friends？
A.Because its actors were very attractive.
B.Because it was the first American sitcom.
C.Because it described American dream life.
D.Because viewers could relate to its characters.
（2）What's Paragraph 4 mainly about？
A.Researchers' interest in the show.
B.The show's influence on language.
C.The relation between the show and culture.
D.The way the show's characters use adjectives.
（3）What do we know about the show after 9/11？
A.It helped people face terrorist attacks.
B.It stopped being set in New York.
C.It provided people with comfort.
D.It attracted fewer viewers.
（4）When you show "disdain" for something，you        .
A.have no respect for it
B.pay no attention to it
C.are curious about it
D.are surprised at it

14. （本题10分） A groundbreaking new study finds that coffee beans are bigger and more plentiful when birds and bees team up to protect and pollinate （授粉） coffee plants.
   Without these winged helpers，some traveling thousands of miles，coffee farmers would see a 25% drop in crops，a loss of roughly 1，066 per acre of coffee.That's important for the 26 billion coffee industry- including consumers，farmers，and corporations who depend on nature's unpaid labor- but the research goes beyond that.
   The study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences is the first to show，using real-world experiments at 30 coffee farms，that the contributions of nature- in this case，bee pollination combined with pest （害虫） control by birds- are larger than their individual contributions.
   "Until now，researchers have typically calculated the benefits of nature separately，and then simply added them up，which actually underestimates the benefits biodiversity provides to agriculture and human wellbeing，" says lead expert Alejandra. "But nature is an interacting system，full of important synergies （协同）.We show the ecological and economic importance of these interactions in one of the first experiments in actual farms."
   For the experiment，researchers dealt with coffee plants across 30 farms，excluding birds and bees with a combination of large nets and small bags.They tested four key situations：bird activity alone，bee activity alone，no bird or bee activity at all，and finally，a natural environment，where bees and birds were free to pollinate and eat insects like the coffee berry boere，one of the most damaging pests affecting coffee production worldwide.The combined positive effects of birds and bees on fruit set，fruit weight and fruit uniformity- key factors in quality and price- were greater than their individual effects，the study shows.
   "Birds，bees，and millions of other species support our lives and livelihoods，but face threats like habitat destruction and climate change，" says Alejandra. "One important reason we measure these contributions is to help protect the many species that we depend on，and sometimes take for granted."

（1）What does the new research focus on？
A．Ways to increase coffee production.
B．Winged helpers' effects on coffee plants.
C．Factors affecting coffee plants' pollination.
D．The importance of pest control on coffee plants.
（2）Which of the following is a major boost to the coffee industry？
A．High-quality service.
B．Government intervention.
C．Expanding investment.
D．Maintaining biodiversity.
（3）How did the researchers conduct the tests according to paragraph 5？
A．By introducing a concept.
B．By making comparisons.
C．By explaining statistical data.
D．By referring to a previous study.
（4）In which section of a newspaper may this text appear？
A．Advertisement.
B．Health.
C．Science.
D．Travel.

15. （本题10分） What Makes Art Valuable？ Why do people buy art？An even bigger question is，why do people pay tens of millions of dollars to own art？Is it for status，prestige（威望），and approval from peers？One thing to remember is that value isn't only linked to its artist quality.（1）       Provenance
   In the art world，an artwork's value can be the result of provenance.In other words，who has owned the painting in the past.（2）       The masterpiece went from a value of less than 10，000 when David Rockefeller first owned it，to upwards of 72 million when it was later sold by Sotheby's.
   The Thrill of Auction（拍卖）
   The salerooms at Christie's or Sotheby's are full of billionaires—or better yet，their advisors.（3）       They know when to bump up a lot and when to slightly tip the scales.They're running the show and it's their job to make sure the highest bidder（出价者）has a shot and that values soar.
   Historical Significance
   Historical significance works in a couple of ways when it comes to determining the value of art.Firstly，you can consider the piece in terms of its importance to art history in its genre.For example，a painting by Claude Monet is worth more than other more recent impressionist work since Monet changed the standard of art history and impressionism as a whole.（4）       After all，art is often a reflection of the culture of its time and as it became a product，art was affected by political and historical changes.
   （5）       Whether in a perfect storm of passion and desire or a calculated risk of business deals and rewards，art collectors continue to spend millions upon millions each year at art auctions.What makes art valuable beyond the cost of supplies and labor？We may never truly understand.

A.World history also affects the value of art.
B.It's interesting to explore what makes art valuable.
C.It seems as though all of these factors combine to determine the value of art.
D.Auctioneers are skilled salesmen who help raise those prices up and up and up.
E.It's obvious that changes in polities have a historical effect on the value of art to different people.
F.For instance，art describing beautiful women tends to be sold for higher prices than that of beautiful men.
G.For example，Mark Rothko's White Center was owned by the Rockefeller family，one of America's most powerful dynasties.

    To celebrate his girlfriend's birthday，Luke Fortune drove from a small town in Central Oregon to Portland，where he parked his car in a paid garage overnight．The next morning，he discovered that the car's window had been smashed，along with his dreams for the future：His backpack and computer were gone．
    "Everything important to me was on that computer，" said Fortune，21，who is studying to become a paramedic（护理人员）．"My classwork，every paper I'd written，and all the programs I needed for my paramedic tests．Every letter I was working on for job application．I felt sick．"
    Two days after the theft，another young man was standing outside his apartment，also in Portland．Masoud Almazrouei，29，was an exchange student from the United Arab Emirates．He had been approached by a man who said he had a computer for sale．Only ＄200．Almazrouei，who had been in the United States for only a year，admits now that he was naive（天真）．But he needed a computer，so he bought it，took it home，and turned it on．Within seconds，he saw files and photographs．
    "I wondered who would sell a computer with all of these on it．" he said．"I realized it could be stolen．" Almazrouei found what appeared to be the owner's cell phone number and called it．
    "This guy with a thick accent told me he had my computer，" Fortune said．"He told me the story and said it was his fault．I thought it was a scam（骗局）．I told him if he really had the computer，he should take it to the police．"
    Soon after，a police officer called Fortune to say that a man had dropped the computer off and had said he was sorry．He passed along the man's number．
Paragraph 1：
    Fortune called and thanked Almazrouei and insisted on paying him a reward of ﹩200，the money he was out．______
Paragraph 2：
    A story about the two young men's encounter made it to the local papers．______
