1、Why Is the Native Language Learnt So Well?How does it happen that children learn their mother tongue so well? When we compare them with adults learning a foreign language, we often find this interesting fact. A little child without knowledge orexperience often succeeds in a complete mastery of the language. A grown-up person with fully developed mental powers, in most case, may end up with a faulty and inexact command. What accounts forthis difference?Despite other explanations, the real answer in my opinion lies partly in the child himself, partly in the behaviorof the people around him. In the first place, the time of learning the mother tongue is the most favorable of all, namely, the first years of life. A child hears it spoken from morning till night and, what is more important, always in its genuine form, with the right pronunciation, right intonation, and right use of words and right structure. He drinks in all the words and expressions, which come to him in a flash, ever-bubbling spring. There is no resistance: there is perfect assimilation.Then the child has, as it were, private lessons all the year round, while an adult language-student has each week a limited number of hours, which he generally shares with others. The child has another advantage: he hears the language in all possible situations, always accompanied by the right kind of gestures and facial expressions. Here there is nothing unnatural, such as is often found in language lessons in schools, when one talks about ice and snow in June orscorching heat in January. and what a child hears is generally what immediately interests him. Again and again, when his attempts at speech are successful, his desires are understood and fulfilled.Finally, though a child\'s "teachers" may not have been trained in language teaching, their relations with him are always close and personal. They take great pains to make their lessons easy.A child learning his native language has the advantage of having private lessons all the year round.【单选题】
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned
正确答案:B
答案解析:题干大意:儿童学习母语的优势是可以常年上私人辅导课。借助常识判断该句的说法不正确。利用答案线索词all the year round,我们可以在第三段第一句中发现直接相关句。比较原句和题干的结构,发现不同之处在于as it were的结构。注意:部分结构的差异往往是设置了陷阱。实际上,as it were意为“仿佛是”。所以原文说的是“仿佛是”,而题干提到的却是“是”,所以问题句“不正确”。
2、Why People Use Pseudonyms (假名字)?You can\'t choose the name you are given at birth, but in many countries you can change it legally when you reach adulthood. Of course, most people never change their names even if they feel unhappy about them. However some people do take this course of action-particularly artists! What makes an artist want to change their name? Sometimes it\'s forpurely personal reasons, such as the Nobel Prize winning poet from Chile, Neftalf Reyes. He didn\'t want his father to know he was writing poetry, so he changed his name to Pablo Neruda when he was a young man. At other times the reason may appear strange, take the case of the Portuguese poet Femando Pessoa, who wrote under 75 different names. The reason? "When I use a different name, I always write in a different way," he explained. In most cases, however , people change their names forsocial, historical, political, orcultural reasons. Here are some of the most common: reason. The person\'s real name is just ____ long and difficult to remember. Let\'s be honest, Madonna Louise Ciccone is not as easy to remember as just plain Madonna. and short names are much easier to remember: William Bradley became Brad Pitt and Edson Arantes do Nascimento became Pele.Sometimes names are changed formarketing purposes. Forexample, if a name sounds too foreign, it may be changed to something that is more recognizable in a market. So in the film world, Ramon Estsvez adopted the name Martin Sheen. ormaybe the artist\'s real name doesn\'t sound attractive-Chad Everett does sound a lot better than Raymond Cramton.Artists sometimes choose the name of someone they admire. Robert Zimmerman changed his name to Boo Dylan because of his admiration forthe Welsh poet, Dylan Thomas.Another reason may be practical: in the past, women found it very difficult to get published. To avoid this situation, they sometimes gave themselves men\'s names, so the English authorMary Ann Evans became George Eliot, and she did get her books published!【单选题】
A.so
B.very
C.too
D.much
正确答案:C
答案解析:本题难度不大,从文中可以判断出,此处是...too...to结构,因此答案是C。
3、Woman workThough some people have suggested that women should return to housework in orcerto leave ____ jobs formen, the idea has been rejected by both women and men in public opinion polls.Lately some unionofficials have suggested that too many women are employed in types of work more suitable formen and that women should step aside to make way forunemployed young men. They argue that women, especially women in their childbearing years,actually delay economic development and result in productivity, poorquality and inefficiency.To solve the problem, they suggested that working women stay at home while their husbands orbrothers were given double wages. They argue that under these circumstances, families would remain their same level of income, and women could run the house and raise children much better,The suggestion, however , has been flatly rejected by 9 0ut of 10 people polled .Some other people have suggested another way called "phased employment" theory. The theory suggests that a woman worker take leave from her job when she is seven months pregnant and stay off the job until her baby reaches the age of 3. It suggested that women on leave receive 75 percent of their normal salary and be allowed to return to work after the three-year period. This will benefit children, women, their families and the society and it definitely seems to be more acceptable than the suggestion that women return to their homes forever.【单选题】
A.more
B.fewer
C.much
D.less
正确答案:A
答案解析: job是可数名词,因此要排除C和D,根据上文“建议女人回家做家务”,会给男人留下更多的工作,因此排除B。
4、Mary rarely speaks to Susan.【单选题】
A.slowly
B.seldom
C.weakly
D.constantly
正确答案:B
答案解析:玛丽很少和苏珊说话。本题难度不大,干扰项干扰不强。rarely和seldom都可指“很少地”,其他项和答案意义差异较大,最佳答案是B。
5、Intelligent Machines1. Medical scientists are already putting computer chips (芯片) directly into the brain to help people who have Parkinson\'s disease, but in what other ways might computer technology be able to help us? Ray Kurzweil is authorof the successful book The Age of Intelligent Machines and is one of the world\'s best computer research scientists. He is researching the possibilities.2. Kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices. An example of this is Ramona; the virtual (虚拟的) hostess of Kurzweil\'s homepage, who is programmed to understand what you say. Visitors to the site can have their conversations with her, and Ramona also dances and sings.3. Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical disabilities. One of his ideas is a "seeing machine". This will be "like a friend that could describe what is going on in the visible world", he explains. Blind people will use a visual sensor(探测器) which will probably be built into a pair of sunglasses. This sensorwill describe to the person everything it sees.4. Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the "listening machine". This invention will recognize millions of words and understand any speaker. The listening machine will also be able to trans late into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it.5. But it is not just about helping people with disabilities. Looking further into the future, Kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to download our entire consciousness onto a computer. This technology probably won\'t be ready forat least 50 years, but when it arrives, it means our minds will be able to live forever.Blind people will be able to see the world with ____.【单选题】
A.what you say
B.a pair of sunglasses
C.the listening machine
D.a visual sensor
E.who have disabilities
F.living forever in a computer

6、Fodd(1)Ford\'s great strength was the manufacturing process not invention. Long before he started a car company, he was a worker, known forpicking up pieces of metal and wire and turning them into machines. He started putting cars together in 1891, although it was by no means the first popular automobile, the Model T showed the world just how creative Ford was at combining technology and market.(2)The company\'s assembly line alone. threw America\'s Industrial Revolution into overdrive(高速运转). Instead of having workers put together the entire car, Ford\'s friends, who were great toolmakers from Scotland, organized teams that added parts to each Model T as it moved down a line. By the time Ford\' s Highland Park plant was humming (嗡嗡作响) along in 1914, the world\'s first automatic conveyorbelt could turn out a car every 93 minutes.(3)The same year Henry Ford shocked the world with the $5 a day minimum Wage scheme, the greatest contribution he had ever made. The average Wage in the auto industry then was $2. 34 fora9-hour shift. Ford not only doubled that he also took an hour off the workday. In those years it was unthinkable that a man could be paid that much fordoing something that didn\'t involve an awful lot of training oreducation. The Wall Street Journal called the plan "an economic crime" and critics everywhere laughed at Ford.(4)But as the wage increased later to daily $10, it proved a critical component of Ford\'s dream to make the automobile accessible to all The critics were too stupid to understand that because Ford had lowered his costs per car, the higher wages didn\'t matter, except formaking it possible formore people to buy cars.paragraph l ____【单选题】
A.Ford\'s Followers
B.The Assembly Line
C.Ford\'s Great Dream
D.The Establishment of the ompany

8、Ceasing to Wear TiesIt\'s useless. It\'s dirty. It spreads disease. That\'s why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called forhospital doctors to stop wearing ties.That leads to another question. Why does anyone wear a tie? Ties serve no purpose. They do not cover any part of your body and keep you warm. They always seem to get covered in food stains. Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie. It lets everyone know what you just ate.Ties have an odd history. Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries (雇佣军) in various conflicts in the 17th century. They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck. Known as cravats(围巾), these became a popular fashion item in France and eventually evolved into the tie.It\'s an interesting story, but it doesn\'t tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth orsilk around their necks. The answer seems to be about identification(身份证明 ). In the 19th-century Britain, ties were used by universities, military regiments (团), sports clubs, schools and gentleman\'s clubs. Each tie was in a particular setof colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain\'s most powerful classes. That made the tie itself a symbol of power and respect. and that led it to be adopted by a much larger class-the business class.You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery, so wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living, rather than his hands. It showed you were serious. It showed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck. This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.Is there a future forties? The signs are not promising. Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now go without ties.Ties were first worn by the Croatian soldiers________.【单选题】
A.they were workmen
B.they were members of different organizations
C.hospital doctors stop wearing ties
D.who does not always wear a tie
E.who served as mercenaries in many conflicts in the 18th century
F.who does not want to live like a king
正确答案:E
答案解析:根据题干中的线索词Croatian soldiers可定位到第三段第二句:Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries(雇佣军)in various conflicts in the 17th century. E选项who served as mercenaries in many conflicts in the 17th century是原句的同义复现,故E为正确答案。
9、The Beginning of American LiteratureAmerican has always been a land of beginnings. After Europeans "discovered" America in the fifteenth century, the mysterious New World became formany people a genuine hope of a new life, an escape from poverty and persecution, a chance to start again. We can say that, as nation, America begins with that hope. When, however, does American literature begin?American literature begins with American experiences. Long before the first colonists arrived, before Christopher Columbus, before the Northmen who "found" America about the year 1,000, Native Americans lived here. Each tribe\'s literature was tightly woven into the fabric of daily life and reflected the unmistakably American experience of lining with the land. Another kind of experience, one filled with fear and excitement, found its expression in the reports that Columbus and other explorers sent home in Spain, French and English. In addition, the journals of the people who lived and died in the New England wilderness tell unforgettable tales of hard and sometimes heartbreaking experiences of those early years.Experience, then, is the key to early American literature. The New World provided a great variety of experiences, and these experiences demanded a wide variety of expressions by an even wider variety of early American writers. These writers included John Smith, who spent only two-and-a-half years on the American continent. They included Jonathan Edwards and William Byrd, who thought of themselves as British subjects, never suspecting a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own. American Indians, explorers, Puritan ministers, frontier wives, plantation owner-they are all the creators of the first American literature.When did American literature begin?【单选题】
A.Before the American natives lived there.
B.When Columbus and other explorers sent reports back home
C.When the Northmen found America in about 1,000.
D.Long before the year 1,000.
正确答案:D
答案解析:答案在第2段的第2句,早在1000年前北欧人声称发现了美洲大陆之前,这块土地上就有美洲印第安人居住,美洲文学早在那时就已经产生。
10、Three Ways to Become More CreativeMost people believe they don\'t have much imagination. They are wrong. Everyone has imagination, but most of us, once we become adults, forget how to access it. Creativity isn\'t always connected with great works of art orideas. People at work and in their free time routinely think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a tricky question to answer oryou just want to expand your mind! There are three techniques to help you.This technique involves taking unrelated ideas and trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve orthe job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea orobject, forexample, a candle. Write down all the ideas/words associated with candles, light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original present; you could buy him tickets to a match ortake him out forthe night. Imagine that normal limitations don\'t exist. You have as much time/space/money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new possibilities. If, forexample, your goal is to learn to ski (滑雪), you can now practice skiing every day of your life (because you have the time and the money). Now adapt this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December, orevery Monday in January.Look at the situation from a different point of view. Good negotiators (谈判者) use this technique in business, and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books. They ask questions: what does this character want? Why can\'t she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? What does she dream about? If your goal involves other people, put yourself "in their shoes". The best fishermen think they are the fish!According to the first technique, if you need to solve a problem ____.【单选题】
A.you could find an image and try to link it with the problem
B.you should link it with candles
C.you have to think of buying a present fora friend
D.you should link it with as many words as possible
正确答案:D
答案解析:本题难度不大,不要先看选项,抓住题干的提示词the first technique回到文章定位,答案依据在文章第二段,核心依据是这一句:Think of as many as you can。可以看出,最佳答案是D。
