1、Seventy-eight percent of left-handed mothers hold their babies on the left side. This fact contradict the theory（）.【阅读理解A】

A.that the holding of the babies on the left is the result of the heart-beating on the left

B.that the holding of the babies on the left is the result of the predominance of right-handedness in the population

C.that the holding of the babies on the left is the result of the predominance of left-handedness in the population

D.that the holding of the babies on the left is the result of the heart-beating on the right

正确答案:B

答案解析:推断题。78%的以左手为主的母亲也是左手兜住自己的孩子，与…it is obviously the result of the predominance of right-handedness in the population. By holding the babies in their left arms, the mothers keep their dominant arm free fｏｒmanipulations. “人们以右手为主的这种优势造成的结果。母亲用自己的左手抱住婴儿，从而就能腾出自己主要的手臂来从事各种操作。”相悖。因此选B。

2、Advertising are appreciated by manufacturers because they（）.【阅读理解A】

A.advise them on ways of giving a product customer appeal

B.accept responsibility fｏｒgiving a product customer appeal

C.advise them on the best time to go ahead with production

D.consult them during the design ａｎｄ　development stages

正确答案:B

答案解析:第二段The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances ａｎｄ　stress factors. So they just go ahead ａｎｄ　make the thing ａｎｄ　leave it to the advertiser to find eleven ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that it confers status, ｏｒattracts love, ｏｒsignifies manliness. If the advertising agency can do this authoritatively enough, the manufacturer is in clover.在产品设计和研发阶段，厂家可以有足够的时间来考虑而不必担心是否每个人都会买它。设计人员在忙于考虑诸如劳动力时间、机器强度以及压力因素时可以不考虑消费者喜好的因素。所以他们可以只管生产出产品然后让广告商通过声称此商品象征身份、地位，能够吸引爱情或是彰显男人魅力等，去寻找足够的理由来吸引消费者购买。倘若广告代理果真能做到足够令人信服，厂家则可高枕无忧了。因此选B。

3、It is possible to find out if a person has adapted to the changes of routine by measuring his body temperature because（）.【阅读理解A】

A.body temperature changes when the cycle of sleep ａｎｄ　wakefulness alternates

B.body temperature changes when he changes to night shift ｏｒback

C.the temperature reverses when the routine is changed

D.people have higher temperatures when they are working efficiently

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题考了一个重要的细节：为什么量体温能看出一个人是否已经适应新的工作时间呢？根据4第段第3句，正常日班工作时工作效率高，体温也稍高。文章接着又说，改变工作安排之后，有一个适应过程，体温变动模式也随着适应程度的变化而变化，效率高时体温也高一些。所以选项D是答案。这一点还可以从这一句最后的particularly in terms of performance中看出。选项A不全面，没有指出体温变化与身体的适应程度大体上一致这一点，也没有指出可以根据其工作好坏判断。同样的道理，选项B和选项C也不对。

4、What is Turkey’s economic situation now?（）【阅读理解A】

A.Its GDP per head is far lagging behind that of the EU members

B.Its inflation rate is still rising

C.Its economy grows faster than any EU member

D.Its economic resilience is very strong

正确答案:C

答案解析:根据文章第二段，土耳其的经济发展“十分惊人”。接着，作者以数据说明土耳其本年度第二季度的GDP增长“no EU country comes close to matching”，可见其经济发展速度超过任何欧盟成员。

5、What are the functions of studying philosophies mentioned in the passage?（）【阅读理解A】

A.It would make our own idea flexible

B.It would help prepare us fｏｒthe future ａｎｄ　guide our actions

C.It would enable us to understａｎｄ　how things develop as to better tackle the future

D.All of the above

正确答案:D

答案解析:推断题。A项在第一段开头就已提到。第四段第一句话说道，“但是我们得为将来做准备，没有一些哲学知识，我们是无法理性地做到这一点的。”因此，B项应该是符合题意的。而C项在最后一段也有谈到。所以，答案应选 D。
