16、ing up a hill for a panoramic (全景的 ) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in f

17、ront of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view. Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the land

18、scape? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didnt want to mess with that. Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her p

19、resence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is involved with it.This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined” it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What

20、would she think if she knew that her figure is captured (捕捉) and frozen on some strangers bedroom wall?

21、aps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.

For men, the preferred cut

25、is short on the sides and back but longer on top. For women, the company prefers a bob with a longer fringe (刘海) that can be swept to one side. This unusual request is its effort to help the country save energy.The spokeswoman for the Tokyo-based construction firm Maeda Corporation Chizuru Inoue exp

26、lained, “Our company is eager to protect the environment and we encourage our staff to carry out many environment-friendly actions.”She added, “We are not sure of the data yet, but we believe if people have short hair, they do not need to use their hairdryers for so long and they will use less water

27、. If all our employees do this, then we may save a lot of power.” Some staff are confused about which style they must have and have been asking which salons give the best cut.The energy-saving move is part of a national campaign to reduce energy consumption following the Fukushima nuclear disaster.

28、Japan has been struggling to produce enough electricity since the tsunami ended production at the Fukushima plants. The disaster resulted in a review of the countrys energy policy that now means less than a quarter of its remaining nuclear plants are in use. The government has talked about a move aw

29、ay from nuclear energy towards more sustainable technologies. Many government departments have taken measures to save power, including a reduced use of air conditioning in offices and schools. Many employees cannot turn down the air conditioner below 27 degrees in the hottest summer months.28. The c

32、order”31. What would be the best title for the text?A. Sustainable Power is Welcome in Japan B. Nuclear Disaster Brings bad ResultsC. Short Hairstyles May Help Save Energy D. Japan is Lacking in EnergyDThe term “healthy obesity” has gained value over the past 15 years, but scientists have recently q

33、uestioned its very existence. “Our new findings suggest that health measures may be necessary for all obese individuals, even those previously considered to be metabolically (代谢的) healthy,” says study first author Mikael, “Since obesity is the major driver changing gene expression in fat cells, we s

34、hould continue to focus on preventing obesity.” Obesity has been a global problem, affecting approximately 600 million people worldwide and increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, cancer, and so on. But in the 1970s and 80s, experts began to question the extent to which obesity increases the r

35、isk for these disorders.Later studies in the late 90s and early 2000s showed that some obese people show a relatively healthy life.However, there are no accepted measures for measuring metabolically healthy obesity, and whether or not such a thing exists is now up for discussion. “Our study suggests

36、 that the idea of metabolically healthy obesity may be more difficult than thought,” Mikael says, “There doesnt appear to be a clear line that separates obese subjects with high or low insulin (胰岛素) sensitivity, indicating that obesity is the major driver explaining the changes in gene expression.”

37、One limitation of the study is that it examined gene expression only in 7white fat cells, not other types. Moreover, all of the obese subjects were scheduled to experience obesity operations, so the findings may only apply to people with severe obesity. In future research, Mikael and his group will

38、track the study patients after surgery to determine whether weight loss normalizes gene expression responses. They will also look for specific genes linked to improved metabolic health in these people.In the meantime, the study has an important take-home message. “Obese people may not be as metaboli

39、cally healthy as previously believed,” Ryden says.32. What does the underlined phrase “healthy obesity“ mean?A. It can be healthy with obesity. B. Obesity is necessary to be healthy.C.

People should have a healthy lifestyle. B. People should keep a balanced weight.C. People should accept obesity in a

41、 way. D. People should avoid obesity operations.35. Which can best describe the authors purpose of writing the passage?A. Compare, analyze and conclude. B. Show, appreciate and persuade.C. Introduce, argue and advertise. D. Present, inform and inspire.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

42、白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The Art of Slow ReadingIf you are reading this article in print, chances are that you will only get through half of what I have written. And if you are reading this online, you may not even finish a fifth. 36 They suggest that many of us no longer have the concentration to read a

43、rticles through to their conclusion.So are we getting stupider? Actually, our online habits are damaging the mental power we need to process and understand textual information. Round-the-clock news makes us read from one article to the next without necessarily 8engaging fully with any of the content

44、. Our reading is frequently interrupted by the noise of the latest email and we are now absorbing short bursts of words on Twitter and Facebook more regularly than longer texts. 37 But we are gradually forgetting how to sit back, think carefully, and relate all the facts to each other.38 A desperate

45、 bunch of academics want us to take our time while reading, and re-reading. They ask us to switch off our computers every so often and rediscover both the joy of personal engagement with printed texts, and the ability to process them fully. Whats to be done then? Most slow readers realize that total

46、 rejection of the web is extremely unrealistic. They feel that getaway from technology for a while is the answer. 39 Personally, Im not sure whether I could ever go offline for long. Even while writing this article, I am switching constantly between sites, skimming too often, absorbing too little. I

47、nternet reading has become too rooted in my daily life for me to change. I read essays and articles not in hard copy but as PDFs. I suspect that many readers are in a similar position. 40 You can download a computer application called Freedom, which allows you to read in peace by cutting off your In

49、 These are the two findings from the recent research projects.D. But if you just occasionally want to read more slowly, help is at hand.E.
