As infants, we can recognize our mothers within hours of birth. In fact, we can recognize the __41__ of our mother’s face well before we can recognize her body shape. It’s __42__ how the brain can carry out such a function at such a young age, especially since we don’t learn to walk and talk until we are over a year old. By the time we are adults, we have the ability to distinguish around 100,000 faces. How can we remember so many faces when many of us find it difficult to __43__ such a simple thing as a phone number? The exact process is not yet fully understood, but research around the world has begun to define the specific areas of the bland and processes __44__ for facial recognition.

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology believe that they have succeeded in __45__ a specific area of the brain called the fusiform face area (FFA), which is used only for facial recognition. This means that recognition of familiar objects such our clothes or cars, is from

4 / 19

__46__ in the brain. Researchers also have found the brain needs to see the whole face for recognition to take place. It had been __47__ thought that we only needed to see certain facial features. Meanwhile, research at University College London has found that facial recognition is not a single process, but __48__ involves three steps. The first step appears to be an analysis of the physical features of a person’s face, which is similar to how we scan the bar codes of our groceries. In the next step, the brain decides whether the face we are looking at is already known or unknown to us. And finally, the brain furnishes the information we have collected about the person whose face we are looking at. This complex __49__ is done in a split second so that we can behave quickly when reacting to certain situations.

Ⅲ Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

Over the past few decades, more and more countries have opened up their markets, increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market. The question is: Is economic globalization __50__ for all?

According to the World Bank, one of its chief supporters, economic globalization has helped reduce __51__ in a large number of developing countries. It quotes one study that shows increased wealth __52__ to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries as a result of integration （融合）of local economies into the world economy. Home some three billion people, these twenty-four countries have seen incomes __53__ at an average rate of five percent—compared to two percent in developed countries.

Those who ____ globalization claim that economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses. __55__, small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in __56__ open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.

Critics take a different view, believing that economic globalization is actually __57__ the gap between the rich and poor. A study carried out by the U.N.-sponsored World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization shows that only a few developing countries have actually __58__ from integration into the world economy and that the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind. __59__, they maintain that globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses. For example, Indian craftsmen who currently seem to benefit from globalization because they are able to __60__ their products may soon face fierce competition that could put them out of __61__. When large-scale manufacturers start to produce the same goods, or when superstores like Wal-Mart move in, these small businesses will not be able to __62__ and will be crowded out.

One thing is certain about Globalization — there is no __63__. Advances in technology combined with more open policies have already created an interconnected world. The ____ now is finding a way to create a kind of globalization that works for the benefit of all.

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is Followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

(A)

For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of the population is what scientists call “amusic.” People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes（音调）. Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are far apart on the musical scale.

As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their ability to enjoy music sets them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.

Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The difference is complex, and it doesn’t involve defective hearing. Amusics can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see certain colors.

Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed (诊断). For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a concert I just say, ‘No thanks. I’m amusic,’” says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”

65. Which of the following is true of amusics?

6 / 19

A. Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them. B. They love places where they are likely to hear music. C. They can easily tell two different songs apart. D. Their situation is well understood by musicians.

66. According to paragraph 3, a person with “defective hearing” is probably one who ______. A. dislikes listening to speeches B. can hear anything nonmusical C. has a bearing problem D. lacks a complex hearing system 67. In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that ______. A. her problem with music had been diagnosed earlier B. she were seventeen years old rather than seventy C. her problem could be easily explained D. she were able to meet other amusics

68. What is the passage mainly concerned with? A. Amusics’ strange behaviours. B. Some people’s inability to enjoy music. C. Musical talent and brain structure. D. Identification and treatment of amusics.

(C)

A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.

“It’s extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components (元件), ” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.

They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.

While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.

Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day-to-day basis.”

72. The difficulty the team of engineers met with while making the robotic fly was that ________.

A. they had no model in their mind B. they did not have sufficient time C. they had no ready-made components

8 / 19

D. they could not assemble the components

73. It can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4 that the robotic fly_________.

A. consists of a flight device and a control system B. can just fly in limited areas at the present time C. can collect information from many sources D. has been put into wide application

74. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?

A. The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects. B. Animals are not allowed in biological experiments. C. There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.

D. Wood’s design can replace animals in some experiments. 75. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A. Father of Robotic Fly

B. Inspiration from Engineering Science C. Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life Insect D. Harvard Breaks Through in Insect Study

Section C

Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.

A. Healthy way of life giving way to overuse of medicine

B. Different findings as to taking additional vitamin

C. EU’s response to overuse of health products

D. Worrying increase in multivitamin advertising

E. EU directive for the benefit of individuals

F. EU directive against prediction in novels 76. The use of health supplements such as multivitamin tablets has increased greatly in the western world. People take these supplements because advertising suggests that they prevent a range of medical conditions from developing. However, there is concern that people are consuming worryingly high doses of these supplements and the European Union (EU) has issued a directive that will ban the sale of a wide range of them. This EU directive should be supported. 77. Research suggests that people who take Vitamin C supplements of over 5000 milligrams a day are more likely to develop cancer. This shows how much damage these health supplements do to people’s health. A spokesman for the health supplement industry has argued that other research shows that Vitamin C supplements help prevent heart disease, but we can dismiss this evidence as it is from a biased source. 78. Science fiction of the 1960s and 1970s predicted that pills would replace meals as the way in which people would get the fuel they needed. This, it was argued, would mean a more efficient use

9 / 19

of time as people wouldn’t have to waste it preparing or eating meals. The EU directive would help prevent this nightmare of pills replacing food becoming a reality. 79. People already take too many pills instead of adopting a healthier lifestyle. For example, the consumption of painkillers in Britain in 1998 was 21 tablets per year for every man, woman and child in the country. People do not need all these pills. 80. Some might argue that the EU directive denies people’s right to freedom of choice. However, there are many legal examples for such intervention when it is in the individual’s best interests. We now make people wear seatbelts rather than allowing them to choose to do so. Opposing the EU directive would mean beneficial measures like this would be threatened.

Section D

Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.

A study of more than five million books, both fiction and non-fiction, has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over time. The researchers from the University of Bristol used Google Ngram Viewer, a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particular words identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadness and surprise.

They found that almost all of the categories(类别) showed a drop in these “mood words” over time. Only in the category of fear was there an increase in usage.

“It is a steady and continuous decrease,” said Dr. Alberto Acerbi. He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature, in a crowded media landscape. “One thing could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw the start of other media. Maybe these media- movies, radio, drama — had more emotional content than books.”

Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend, the research, published in the journal PLOS One, found that they also exhibited another interesting behaviour: the ratio(比率) between the two varied greatly, apparently mirroring historical events.

During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peak that would not occur again until before the recent financial crash. But the ratio plunged at the height of the Second World War. Nevertheless, the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trade. In the paper, they even prove that the reverse could be true.

“It has been suggested, for example that it was suppression(压抑) of desire in ordinary Elizabethan English life that increased demand for writing ‘filled with romance and sex’ … perhaps,” they conclude, “songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body.”

(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statement in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

81. A study of more than five million books indicated a decline in “mood words” over time except ____________.

10 / 19

82. According to Dr. Alberto Acerbi, one reason for the drop of “mood words” in books may be that __________.

83. What were the two periods when the joy-to-sadness ratio was at its highest?

84. While the researchers found some changes in the use of “mood words” in books, they were not sure that __________.

II. Guided Writing Possible version 1 Dear Sir or Madam:

I have heard from the newspaper that you, the Shanghai Museum, are planning to organize a famous painting exhibition. And you are now collecting suggestions about whether to hold it in

12 / 19

your museum or the art gallery. I am now writing to express my opinion that the exhibition should be held in the museum. My reasons are as follows.

In terms of convenience, the museum has more advantages over the gallery. First, it is located in the People’s Square, which is the center of the city. So people can enjoy convenient transportation such as the subway line 1, 2 and 8, which are available to people from nearly every district. It saves the visitors a lot of time and trouble of traffic jam. Another advantage is that it is easy to be found by those from other provinces around the country. After all the Shanghai Museum is a landmark of our city familiar to nearly every Chinese.

With regard to the professional function, though it seems natural that an art exhibition be set in the gallery, in a more general sense, I think the museum has more advanced facilities to make the exhibition successful and to preserve the paintings well. As we know, the museum has successfully held many national and international exhibitions and its advertising and organizing experience is of no match; also its staff is qualified and professional.

To sum up, I am sure the show will be fantastic if it is held in Shanghai Museum.

(248 words)

Possible version 2

To whom it may concern：

I’ve learned that an art exhibition is to be held and that you’re collecting suggestions on its location. I’m writing this letter to share with you my opinions.

In my opinion, it is more advisable to hold the art exhibition in Shanghai Museum than in community libraries. My reasons are as follows.

On one hand, it is more convenient for people to get to Shanghai Museum which is located in the center of the city. And the museum is much more spacious than community libraries, which provides visitors with a more comfortable environment for appreciating art.

On the other hand, as a well-known museum, Shanghai Museum is more professional and experienced in holding art exhibitions. Its professional security guards and advanced facilities can better protect those famous paintings from being damaged or stolen.

Therefore, I suggest the exhibition be held in the museum.

I. Listening Comprehension Section A

Directions: In Section A, you will hear ten short conversations between two speakers. At the end

14 / 19

of each conversation, a question will be asked about what was said. The conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a conversation and the question about it, read the four possible answers on your paper, and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.

1. W: Can you describe what you do?

M: I wash office building windows. I go high up in a basket to reach the windows. Q: What is the man’s job?

2. M: Should we go out or eat in tonight? W: I am too tired to do any cooking. Q: What does the woman imply?

3. M: Hi, Grace. Tell me something about your hometown?

W: It’s so beautiful and peaceful, but it’s really far away from everything. Q: What does the woman think of her hometown?

4. W: My printer is out of paper. I’ll run in and get some. M: I’ll go with you. I need some fresh air. Q: Where will the speakers probably go?

5. M: I don’t like the prices on the menu. They always seem too high. W: You’ll have a different view after eating the delicious food. Q: What does the woman mean?

6. M: I had a hard time getting through the novel.

W: I know how you feel. Who could remember the names of 35 different characters? Q: What does the woman imply?

7. W: Why haven’t we received any newspaper here yet? M: Well, sometimes it takes a while for the post to deliver it. Q: What can we learn from the conversation?

8. M: My roommate and I are going to see a film tonight. And we’re leaving at 7:40. Do you want to join us?

W: Sure. But my class ends at 7:30 and the professor never finishes on time. Q: What can we learn about the woman?

9. W: Now that you are in the business, what’s your advice for someone to become a fashion designer?

M: Go to school. I mean it. Find a good school and learn as much as you can. Q: What does the man mean?

10. W: Slow down. You are passing every car on the road.

M: Most drivers usually ignore the speed limit unless they think the police will stop them. Q: What does the man mean?

Section B

Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three questions on each of the passages. The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.

15 / 19

I am Lin. My previous job was a principal of a language school where I received awards for training teachers to teach more effectively.

A year ago, I started an international company. I spent months conducting programs in the US and Russia. During this time some Russian immigrants came to stay at my house. Fortunately these visitors helped a lot at home and made life easier. At the same time I wrote several books to be published by my company and co-edited a book for a major publisher. I am grateful I have a photographic memory. So I can remember everything I see. Otherwise, I might not be that productive.

In addition to my work, I have a family at home. Some of my children have had serious health problems from birth, but I try to handle those problems well and efficiently. With tremendous help from my parents, the kids are fed, and clothed and educated. I am busy from the time I get up until the time I go to bed. My time has to be carefully planned. I do not like to be interrupted because I want to accomplish my goals.

Questions:

11. What was the speaker’s previous job?

12. What helps to make the speaker productive according to the passage? 13. What does the passage mainly tell us?

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.

Job interviews can generally be divided into three types. The first is what I would call the traditional interview. This is usually just a series of standard questions about qualifications, work experience and expectations. So what you have here is basically a list of quite direct questions, like what duties did you have in your previous jobs. This is still the model for a lot of interviews today. In my view, it’s not the best to select staff.

Then there is the case interview. Here the interview presents a problem and a series of questions to find out how the candidate would approach the problem. It might go something like this. A company wants to hire more graduates without spending more than its current budget. What would you advise them to do? This can be particularly challenging, for you need to analyze the problem and solve it.

The third type is known as the behavioral interview. The questions are usually designed to find out about how the candidates handle tricky situations in the past. A typical question might be: “Can you give me an example of a situation where you have to follow orders that you didn’t agree with?” This opens up a lot of information and the interviewer gets to see more of the candidate.

Questions:

14. What kind of questions are usually asked in a traditional interview? 15. What does the case interview focus on about the candidate? 16. What does the speaker mainly talk about?

Section C

Directions: In Section C, you will hear two longer conversations. The conversations will be read

16 / 19

twice. After you hear each conversation, you are required to fill in the numbered blanks with the information you have heard. Write your answers on your answer sheet.

Blanks 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.

W: Hi, Brees. It’s Naomi. M: Hi, Naomi.

W: I am calling about the conference in Shanghai on Nov. 8. We’ll have to make some changes. M: Ok. Go ahead.

W: I don’t think the Peace Garden will be big enough. We need a center that can seat at least 600. M: That many? Any suggestions?

W: The Palace Center will be free that day. But it will mean increasing registration fee by 50 dollars from 800 hundred dollars to 850 dollars. M: That won’t be a problem. Anything else?

W: The Melong University says they are sending Colornisco instead of Professor Betony. But the talk will be the same: opportunities, and risks in the African market. M: Fine. Make those changes and I’ll inform everyone at my end. Complete the form. Write ONE WORD for each answer.

Blanks 21 through 24 are based on the following conversation.

W: David, we all know you took up skateboarding at ten, but did your parents support you? M: Yeah, my parents even let me skate in the house. W: Did they?

M: Yeah! They were pretty cool. W: How about your school work?

M: That was fine. I was able to get my school work done with good grades. My only problem was that I had so much physical energy that I could not sit still in class. Then some teachers started taking my skate board away.

W: That couldn’t stop you from skating?

M: No way! The cool thing was that my parents managed to find me a different school. The headmaster there was wonderful. He let us play on our own P.E. classes. So guess what class I created?

W: Skate boarding?

M: You got it. That was my P.E. class. By that time I was turning professional and started to show off some techniques and competitions.

W: Is that when your new style became famous?

M: Yeah. Other skaters had this smooth flowing style, but I was kind of like a robot, always coming up with new tricks.

Complete the form. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

2013年的上海卷英语作文延续了2009年和2011年“信函+提纲”的命题特征，但今年的写作已经为考生设定了信函格式，考生只需从分析提纲内容及构思篇章结构出发，使熟悉此类命题写作模板的考生较容易把握住文章框架，确定段落内容并合理安排经典短语和句型的穿插。接下来就提纲内容，篇章布局及经典短语和句型的应用这三个方面和大家分享2013年上海卷的英语写作部分。

2013年上海高考英语作文题目为：

上海博物馆拟举办一次名画展，现就展出场所（博物馆还是社区图书馆）征集公众意见。假设你是王敏，给上海博物馆写一封信表达你的想法。你的信必须满足以下要求： 1． 简述你写信的目的及你对场所的选择；

2． 说明你的理由（从便利性、专业性等方面对这两个场所进行对比）。

题目正文审题的关键在于征集公众意见。这表明了写信者必然是对此画展非常感兴趣并希望为上海举办的这个名画展出谋献策。这即为提纲第一点中“简述你写信的目的”。若没有仔细审题，考生很容易错过这个重要内容而直接表面自己对场所的选择，从而造成写作内容的缺失。根据提纲的第一点，第一段的结构可以设定为：背景句（注意要符合信函的写作语气）+写信目的+你对场所的选择：

我很高兴得知上海博物馆将会举办一次名画展并就展出场所向公众征集意见。我希望能够通过表达自己的观点，为此活动出谋献策。我认为上海博物馆从多个方面来看更适合举办这次名画展。

I am delighted to know that (符合信函的写作语气) a famous art exhibition will be organized by the Shanghai Museum and opinions of the public are being collected （注意并列句的时态前后差异）as to select the location for the exhibition, which （非性定语从句体现前后的逻辑关系）encourages me to write to （写信目的）expression my ideas. As far as I am concerned, the Shanghai Museum has more advantages over the community library in more than one aspect.（写信者对展出场所的选择）。

提纲的第二点要求通过对比上海博物馆和社区图书馆来阐述自己选择的理由。同为说明理由，其篇章逻辑结构同2009年上海卷高考写作的第三段完全一致。 2009年上海卷高考写作的第三段（你为什么想学这些内容）

对于这个选择我的理由显而易见。首先，我能成为父母在家庭园艺上的好帮手。其次，园艺给了我感受亲近自然的好机会。最后，它使我倾心投入，使我的暑假生活充实有意。（内容层层深入）

2013年上海卷高考写作的第二段：

对于这个选择我的理由显而易见。首先，上海博物馆位于市中心，交通便捷。其次，上海博物馆有更专业的保安体系，能更好的保障这些名画的安全。最后，上海博物馆历史悠久，具有更多的号召力，能更有效的推广此次画展。（内容层层深入，使理由呈现出层次感。） It is not difficult to find the reasons for my choice. The immediate factor is that the Shanghai Museum located in the downtown area is really accessible. The second point to be mentioned is that its more professional security system prevents those precious paintings from being damaged or even stolen. Last but not least, its history-honoured reputation contributes to a more efficient

promotion （这些深体字的应用以各种写作手段化解了在英语写作中重复主语“上海博物馆”。这点最能突出考生对于英语写作与母语写作差异性的把握。）

完成提纲的两个要点之后，最后作为全文的总结，建议考生可以用名言来更深入的诠释自己的选择，把全文推向高潮。

As a saying goes, it is the little thing that matters most. I am pretty convinced that a wise choice makes perfect.
