21．（6分） During this shopping season, salesmen will come up with different strategies to get your business. Many product companies use specific colors to cause positive emotions and compete for a sale. However, sight is not the only sensory (感官的) retail that companies use. Sounds and smells can also influence consumers’ purchasing decisions.
Nobel Prize-winning research shows that our sense of smell has great power to cause an emotional response. A study published earlier this year compared purchasing in a French flower shop when the smell of lavender (薰衣草) was given off and when it wasn’t. It found that the smell increased the number of consumers’ purchasing items and the amount of their purchases. An earlier study using Nike shoes found that consumers desired the shoes more, and were willing to pay more, when the room had a mixed smell of flowers. Realizing the subconscious impact of smell, many stores apply artificial scents (气味) through their heating and air-conditioning vents (通风口) or place scent machines above their doors. For instance, a coconut scent might make that bikini more appealing as you long for a vacation.
Ever felt frenzied due to a store’s fast-paced music? Or calmed by a piece of light music? A retailer’s choice of music can have a big impact on consumers’ moods. One study found that when subjected to loud music, consumers will spend less time in a store. But interestingly, the researchers did not find a difference in sales or customers’ satisfaction. Another interesting finding from a recent study was that customers actually shop longer when exposed to unfamiliar music. Just as department stores use different scents in certain departments, many use different music in some areas to appeal to varying consumers.
Well, you could always leave the store and take a break, but the food court probably isn’t your best choices as brands like Cinnabon and Panera Bread also use scents as part of their customers’ experience. Online retailers (零售商) use a variety of other strategies to get your business, but you can always neglect those and enjoy the familiar scents of home.
1、The passage is mainly about ________.
A．consumers’ favorite sounds and smells while shopping
B．shopping malls’ strategies for satisfying consumers
C．some special services from super shopping malls
D．two factors affecting consumers’ shopping decisions
2、What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A．Decorating stores with flowers becomes a fashion.
B．Shops with special smells can attract more consumers.
C．Smells can actually help businessmen gain more profits.
D．The products with a kind of special smell are more popular.
3、How does music have an effect on consumers?
A．It controls consumers’ desire for shopping.
B．It influences how long consumers stay in a shop.
C．It gives consumers the satisfaction of enjoying shopping.
D．Whether consumers are willing to buy things depends on it.
4、Which of the following can replace the underlined word “frenzied” in Paragraph 3?
A．Satisfied. B．Depressed.
C．Surprised. D．Excited.
5、What does the writer try to express in the last paragraph?
A．Online shopping is becoming more and more popular nowadays.
B．People should spend more time at home with family members.
C．People can choose to get rid of salesmen’s promotion strategies.
D．Smells and sounds are important for consumers’ shopping experience.
22．（8分） When you are sitting in class, have you ever drawn pictures in the margins (页边的空白处) of your notebooks? If so, you are doodling. Many people think of doodling as a distraction (分心) from more important things. But it might be just the opposite.

One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear 29% more. Besides, doodling can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you’ll have a fresh perspective and figure out an answer more quickly.
An author named Sunni Brown wrote a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. In fact, she runs a business that helps companies improve organization and planning through doodling. Brown believes doodling is helpful because it includes many ways of learning. You learn in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading or writing, and through movement. The more ways you use, the better you learn. And when you doodle while listening to a lecture, you use all four.
You might think that being good at drawing is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it doesn’t matter what the picture looks like. Even if you’re not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need help focusing, pick up a pen and doodle away!
1、The passage mainly tells us the ________ of doodling.
A．advantages B．disadvantages
C．effects D．problems
2、What does the underlined word “perspective” probably mean in Paragraph 2?
A．体验 B．观点
C．困扰 D．机会
3、How does Sunni Brown feel about doodling?
A．It helps remember better. B．It helps think creatively.
C．It involves four ways of learning. D．It needs drawing skills.
4、According to the text, it is helpful to doodle when ________.
A．you want to focus your attention. B．you have a conversation.
C．you wonder in the park. D．you watch a movie.
5、Where is the passage possibly taken from?
A．A book review. B．A message board.
C．A student textbook. D．A science magazine.
23．（8分）I went to the cinema this afternoon to see La La Land. Before going into the screening my sister and I visited the ladies’ washroom. As we entered, a little blonde haired girl about 5 years of age opened one of the cubicle(小隔间)doors and ran out of the washroom, hot pants in hand and looking upset and overwhelmed.
I went after her. Her dad was standing outside. She quickly gave him the hot pants to dress her. Little sweetheart. She obviously couldn't manage to button up her hot pants. Even though she had her little white tights on, she must have felt embarrassed about the lack of hot pants.
I tried to calm and reassure her, saying, “When I saw dad standing outside I knew he was waiting for someone very pretty, but I just hadn't realized how, pretty she was going to be.” She didn't bite; dad smiled though. I offered to bring her back to wash her hands.
She was too tiny to squeeze soap out of the dispenser, so I helped her. I could see poor dad out of the side of my eyes .He was right at the door looking in. I went with her to the hand dryer, but she was so tiny that the sensor couldn't even detect her little hands. I lifted her up and her hands were properly dried, well at least a little.
I was moved by this little girl’s helplessness in an adult world. I also felt for dad having to trust that his little girl would feel safe and secure for the few minutes out of his sight.
I reached out for help. I tried to bridge the gap when a little helpless girl was a few minutes without a trusted adult and a concerned father had to for a moment accept he could not give her the security he wanted for her. It wasn't much but it helped a caring father and his little daughter and for that, I'm grateful.
1、Why did the little girl catch the author's attention?
A．She got frightened by strangers.
B．She needed clothing to cover her.
C．She was probably lost in the crowd.
D．She was in an embarrassing situation.
2、Why did the hand dryer fail to work for the little girl?
A．The size of the sensor was too small.
B．She was not tall enough to reach it.
C．She didn’t know how to operate it.
D．It was drying the author's hands.
3、How did the father feel in the story?
A．Helpless. B．Shy.
C．Shameful. D．Calm
24．（8分）WHERE ARE WE GOING TODAY?
The Play Indoor Playground covers 2, 300 square feet. It has fun, colorful entertaining and exciting toys and equipment for you to play with.
How about the inflatable（可充气的） obstacle course？ Do you think you will be able to walk around it as you re bouncing everywhere? Maybe you want to take a swim in the ball pool.
The great thing about playing is being able to be creative and use your imagination. You can be ANYTHING you want to be! How about being monkeys to hide out in the tree house? You can climb up to the top of the tree house slide, and pretend to eat those yummy bananas before sliding back down again. Or perhaps you want to be princesses, sitting in the castle with your lovely long hair flowing out of the tower. You can use the clothes in the princess dress-up trunk to really feel the part.
For the little ones, there is an infant section where they can play and experiment with the toys at their own pace, away from the bigger kids, and there is also a Sony Playstation area for the slightly bigger kids who want to try and beat their highest scores and try the latest games.

25．（10分）Climbing Without Ropes
The popular image of the mountain climber is of a person carefully climbing a steep cliff with a network of safety ropes, but it is not the only kind. Many climbers now enjoy bouldering. It’s more accessible and better for the environment.
What is bouldering?
Bouldering is a sport that involves climbing on, over, and around boulders up to approximately twenty feet above the ground. Participants employ no safety ropes.
Why boulder?
• improve your climbing skills by focusing on basics
• places to climb, such as climbing walls at gyms and parks, easy to find
• less time commitment to bouldering than to mountain climbing
• intellectual and physical enjoyment as one solves problems

Bouldering Terms
crimp: a very small handhold
foothold: a place where one may place a foot to aid in climbing boulder
jug: a very large handhold that is easy to use
problem: The path up a boulder is referred to as the “problem” that one must solve. The “solution” is the sequence of moves one makes up and over a boulder.
Here is an example of a climber addressing a bouldering problem.
Figure 1: The climber has two routes she could take, one to the left and one to the right. The left one appears easier because it has a jug within easy reach, but look what happens if she chooses that direction. She gets stuck on the rock and has to go back down. Sometimes that is even more difficult than going up.
Figure 2: The climber takes the one to the right this time. Using a foothold and placing her right hand in a crimp, she is able to lift herself up and locate other handholds. After only a few moves, she is able to throw her leg over the top of the boulder and pull herself up.

1、According to the passage, bouldering ________.
A．is an indoo
