Guide dogs.B Its 3 oclock and youve been hard at work. As you sit at your desk, a strong desire for chocolate overcomes you. You try to busy yourself to make it go away. But it doesnt. Here is another situation. Perhaps you are not feeling well. The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup, like your mom used to make when you were sick as a child. Food cravings are a strong desire for a specific type of food. And they are normal.Scientists at the website How Stuff Works compare hunger and cravings this way. Hunger is a fairly simple connection between the stomach and the brain. They even call it simply “stomach hunger.” When our stomachs burn up all of the food we have eaten, a hormone (荷尔蒙) sends a message to one part of the brain for more food, which regulates our most basic body functions such as thirst, hunger and sleep. The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat. Hunger is a function of survival.A craving is more complex. It activates brain areas related to emotion, memory and reward. These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies. Because of this, some scientists call food cravings “mind hunger.” People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar. Foods that are high in fat or high in sugar produce chemicals in the brain. These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure. In a 2007 study, researchers at Cambridge University found that “dieting or restricted eating generally increases the possibility of food craving.” So, the more you deny yourself a food that you want, the more you may crave it. However, fasting is a bit different. They found that eating no food at all for a short period of time lessened food cravings. So, the next time you crave something very special, know that your brain may be more to blame than your stomach. 4. The author describes two situations in the first paragraph to _. A.remind readers of their own special food. B.deepen the understanding of hunger.C.report the discovery of craving study.D. introduce the topic of the whole passage.5. What do we learn about food craving? A.It shows food is linked to feelings. B.It ensures a person survives hunger.C.It means the stomach functions well. D.It proves the brain decides your appetite.6. Whats the likely result of dieting? A.The decrease of chemicals.B.The increase of food desire.C.The refusal of fat and sugar.D.The disappearance of appetite.7. In which column of a newspaper can you see this passage? A. Education B.Entertainment C. ScienceD.Economy CRenaissance is a French word. It means “rebirth”. Its a strange name for a period of history. What was it that was reborn during the Renaissance?To answer this question, we need to look back at the time of the Roman Empire. At this time Roman artist, scientists and writers influenced by Greek ideas were the worlds most advanced. They had become skilled observers of the natural world around them, and had become experts in studying animals, plants, the human body or the stars and planets. They wrote down their ideas about what they saw, and based their theories about the world on their observations. During the fourth and fifth centuries the Roman Empire slowly broke down. Many of the Romans art and sculptures were destroyed and some manuscripts were lost as well. But most importantly, some of the ancient attitudes were lost. A questioning approach to the world was replaced by an unquestioning one. Why did this happen? One reason was to do with the influence of Christian Church. Through the thousand years following the fall of the Roman Empire, the Church controlled many aspects of life including education and learning. The Church ran all the universities and thought that the aim of a university should be to teach old ideas more clearly, not to introduce new ones. The scholars in the universities were expected to study God and heaven from the Bible and ancient books, rather than the world around them.Take medicine, for example. The main textbook for doctors had been written by Greek doctor called Galen more than a thousand years earlier. But when Roger Bacon, a thirteen-century priest, said that a new approach to medicine was needed, doctors should do their own original research instead of reading writers from the past such as Galen, the Church put him into prison.By the time of the fourteenth century, however, some parts of Christian Church were becoming less strict about their ideas and there was a new state of mind among artists, doctors and scientists. People wanted to find out more about the world by studying it. This attitude of investigation had been common in classical scholars, and it was “reborn” during the Renaissance.8. We know from the text that scientists at the time of the Roman Empire believed in _.A. their companions observations B. what they saw with their own eyesC. what they learned from Greeks D. the most advanced theories at that time9. We can infer that students in the Church-controlled universities might_.A. have good memories B. change their beliefsC. be lacking in creativity D. be interested in astronomy10. Roger Bacon was put in prison because he _.A. give up being a priest B. challenged the ChurchC. did some research secretly D. showed no respect for Galen11. The text probably comes from a book about _.A. medicine B. history C. religion D. educationD NASA might be famous for sending rockets up to space quickly. But it will be more famous for making your next holiday come more quickly. The space agency is working on a new plane, which could solve the problems of supersonic(超音速的) flight and vastly increase the speed of journeys abroad. If successful, the plane would be able to fly between New York and London in just three hours. And it would reduce the time spent flying other journeys by a half, since it could be used more broadly. Until now, the problem with such planes has been the sonic boom, made famous by the original Concorde（协和客机）. That happens when a plane reaches supersonic speeds. It is a thunderous noise that upsets people on the ground disturbing animals and even causing physical problems to materials and houses underneath. It was that effect that led Congress to ban such planes from being used over the US land, a decision that in turn was responsible for Concordes failing to be commercially used. In view of the problem, the space agency has developed a new technology and tried it out in wind tunnels, and now believes that it could be put to commercial use. That plane will fly as high as 55,000 feetfar higher than normal planesand make a sound of only 60 decibels. Thats far less than 90 decibels thrown out by normal planes, and is roughly in line with a car on the motorway or a busy restaurant. “As long as we can get endorsement from the general public, the plane will probably be something thats acceptable,” said Peter Coen, project manager for NASAs commercial supersonic research team, in a new Bloomberg report. “If we get approved, we will have the full-sized version of the plane tried out and the plane will be put into use.” 12. Why does the author mention Concorde? A.To suggest the rapid development of planes in the USA.B.To make us know the negative effect of the sonic booms better.C.To introduce how a commercial plane is designed.D.To show us that Concorde finally failed to be commercially used.13. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about? A.The basic data of the new plane. B.The working principle of the new plane.C.The problems of the new plane. D.The potential market of the new plane.14. What does the underlined word “endorsement” in paragraph 5 mean? A.responseB.commitmentC.investmentD.agreement15. Why does the author write the passage? A.Because he wants to inform people of NASAs new plane.B.Because he wants to prove the disadvantages of supersonic flight.C.Because he wants to explain why speed matters in supersonic flight.D.Because he wants to clarify some misunderstandings about commercial planes.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。There is an old Spanish Proverb which states, “Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week”. 16 Id say, too many.
