11.When men get together,they seldom talk about their feelings or inner thoughts.However,they talk about a lot,like their newest computer,how to repair their car,or even business.
Talk might move to the best place to find fish or women,jump to computer games,then continue to the sport of the season.They also like to tell jokes each other and spend a fair amount of time playing one-up and boasting(吹牛).Men seldom call each other to chat.
When man meets woman,he usually wants to make a good impression.Many single men try hard to carry on amusing,fun,and pleasant conversations.They use conversation to discover her interests and feelings in order to learn how to be attractive to her.
Some men,either out of nervousness or ignorance,spend most of the time talking about themselves,often appearing to brag about their achievements or talk endlessly about their problems or work.Even the quietest man talks to his woman when love is new.
When women get together,they talk about feelings and relationships,their work and their family.They enjoy talking but also want the give and take of talk,then listen.Women often call each other to chat.Conversation is an important part of most women's 1ives.
As relationships progress,however,many a man turns on the television and forgets how to talk.This raises anger and cry from his woman partner who says,"You never talk to me  anymore."Some men start talking.Many,however,mainly discuss their own achievements and problems.
When the woman starts talking about her favorite subjects:feelings,family,relationships,friends and her work,many men lose interest or bring the conversation back to themselves.Pretty soon,the man is back to staring at the television each night,wondering where his relationship has gone.The woman is talking to her friends,mom,sister,or neighbor,often about that very relationship and how she is hurting.
28.What can we know about men from the first two paragraphs?A
A.They like to talk about practical matters.
B.They are willing to expose their inner thoughts.
C.They prefer to take adventurous travels.
D.They often call each other to chat about work.

A.Show off.    
B.Dream about.  
C.Put forward.
D.Care for.
30.What is the same topic in both men's and women's talk?D
A.Family.    
B. Jokes.
C.Friends.
D.Work.
31.What is the best title of this passage?C
A.How a man makes a good impression to a woman.
B.Good relationship between men and women.
C.Men talk;women talk;do they talk together?
D.Talking,the women's main tool in communication.

解答 28.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段最后一句However,they talk about a lot,like their newest computer,how to repair their car,or even business.可知男性在一起談?wù)摰脑掝}通常是電腦,如何修車或者生意上的事情,都是一些很實(shí)用的內(nèi)容.故A項(xiàng)正確.
29.A.詞義猜測(cè)題.根據(jù)本句…often appearing to brag about their achievements or talk endlessly about their problems or work中their achievements可知男性在談話的時(shí)候很喜歡談?wù)撍麄兊膫(gè)人成就,使用該詞意為"炫耀",故A正確.
30.D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第四段…talk endlessly about their problems or work.和第五段When women gettogether,they talk about feelings and relationships,their work and their family.可知男性和女性都很喜歡談?wù)撟约旱墓ぷ鳎蔇正確.
31.C.主旨大意題.本文主要告訴我們男性和女性談話的話題和內(nèi)容是完全不一樣的,很多情況下男性和女性是說(shuō)不到一起的.AC項(xiàng)屬于文章的部分內(nèi)容,B項(xiàng)與文章內(nèi)容關(guān)系不大.只有C項(xiàng)與文章在中心思想一致.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí),要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

2.Harper Lee,whose 1961 novel To Kill a Mockingbird on the racial troubles of the American deep south,has died at the age of 89.
Until last year,Lee had been something of a one-book literary legend.To Kill a Mockingbird sold more than 40 million copies around the world and earned her a Pulitzer prize,remaining a towering presence in American literature.Another novel,Go Set a Watchman,was controversially published in July 2015 as a"sequel"to Mockingbird,though it was later confirmed to be Mockingbird's first draft.
But from the moment Mockingbird was published to almost instant success,the author consistently avoided public attention.Lee had lived for several years in a nursing home near the house in which she had grown up in Monroeville,Alabama-the setting for Maycomb of her famous book.Her neighbor for 40 years,Sue Sellers,said,"She was such a private person.All she wanted was privacy,but she didn't get much.There was always somebody following her around."
James Naughtie,BBC Books Editor,commented on the novels of Harper Lee:"I think she stands,particularly among American readers,as someone who shone a light into a very dark place.She was writing at a time when people were beginning to lift the lid on everything in the South which they'd chosen not to understand.That all changed in the 1960s.So I think her status for writing that book in its extraordinarily direct way will remain."
24.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably mean?C
A.Lee became successful with stories on American south.
B.People owe Lee's success to luck to some degree.
C.Mockingbird makes Lee a wonder in American literature.
D.Mockingbird was a bestseller by selling 40m copies.
25.What does"Maycomb"in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?C
A.A nursing home.
B.Lee's hometown.
C.A fictional place.
D.A main character.
26.Which best describes Americans'attitude towards racial troubles before the 1960s?B
A.Tolerant.
B.Unconcerned.
C.Sympathetic.
D.Dissatisfied.
27.What can we learn from the text?C
A.Lee based all her stories on her life.
B.Lee had to avoid being followed by her fans.
C.Lee wrote Go Set A Watchman before Mockingbird.
D.Lee lived in the house where she grew up for the whole life.

19.Who made your T-shirt?"A Geowetown University student raised that question.Pietra Rivoli,a professor of business,wanted to find the answer.A few weeks later,she bought a T-shirt and began to follow its path from Texas cotton form to Chinese factory to charity bin (箱).The result is an interesting new book,The Travels of a T-shirt in the Global Economy.
Following a T-shirt around the world in a way to make her point more interesting,but it also frees Rivoli from the usual arguments over global trade.She goes wherever the T-shirt goes,and there are surprises around every corner.In China,Rivoli shows why a clothing factory,even with its poor conditions,means a step toward a better life for the people who work there.In the colorful used-clothing markets of Tanzania,she realizes this,"it is only in this final stage of life that the T-shirt will meet a real market,"where the price of a shirt changes by the hour and is different by its size and even color.Rivoli's book is full of memerable people and scenes,like the noise,the bad air and the"muddy-sweet smell of the cotton."She says,"Here in the factory,Shanghai smells like Shallowater Texas."
Rivoli is at her best when making those sorts of unexpected connections.She even finds one between the free traders and those who are against globalization.The chances opened up by trade are vast,she argues,but free markets need the correcting force of politics to keep them in check.True economic progress needs them both.

28.What do we learn about Professor Rivoli?B
A.She used to work on a cotton farm.
B.She wrote a book about world trade.

6.It's rare that you see the words"shyness"and"leader"in the same sentence.After all,the common viewpoint is that those outgoing and sociable guys make great public speakers and excellent networkers and that those shy people are not.A survey conducted by USA Today referred to 65 percent of executives who believed shyness to be a barrier to leadership.Interestingly,the same article stresses that roughly 40 percent of leaders actually are quite shy-they're just better at adapting themselves to situational demands.Bill Gates,Warren Buffet and Charles Schwab are just a few"innies".
Unlike their outgoing counterparts who are more sensitive to rewards and risk-taking,shy people take a cautious approach to chance.Rather than the flashy chit-chat that defines social gathering,shy people listen attentively to what others say and absorb it before they speak.They're not thinking about what to say while the other person is still talking,but rather listening so they can learn what to say.Along the same lines,shy people share a common love of learning.They are intrinsically(內(nèi)在地) motivated and therefore seek content regardless of achieving an outside standard.
Being shy can also bring other benefits.Remember being in school and hearing the same kids contribute,until shy little Johnny,who almost never said a word,cut in?Then what happened?Everyone turned around to look with great respect at little Johnny actually talking.This is how shy people made good use of their power of presence:they"own"the moment by speaking calmly and purposefully,which translate to a positive image.
Shyness is often related to modesty.Not to say that limelight-seekers aren't modest,but shy people tend to have an accurate sense of their abilities and achievements.As a result,they are able to acknowledge mistakes,imperfections,knowledge gaps and limitations.
Since shy people have a lower sensitivity to outside rewards than outgoing ones,they're more comfortable working with little information and sticking to their inner desires.Shy people are also more likely to insist on finding solutions that aren't primarily apparent.Don't believe me?Maybe you'll believe Albert Einstein,who once said,"It's not that I'm so smart,it's that I stay with problems longer."Obviously,finding certainty where uncertainty is typically popular is a huge plus for any successful person.
The myth that shy people are less effective leaders than their outgoing fellows is just a misunderstanding.Make wise use of your personality strengths to lead your business no matter what side of the range you fall on.
24.We can learn from Paragraph 2 thatB.
A.shy people are sensitive to rewards
B.shy people care more about content
C.outgoing people are more careful about chances
D.outgoing people consider what to learn while listening
25.The example of Johnny showsD.
A.shy people are likely to be modest
B.hardworking students speak little in public
C.some students keep silent on purpose at school
D.shy people may have an advantage in discussion
26.We can learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 thatA.
A.success results from devotion
B.shyness contributes to popularity
C.outside reward leads to insistence
D.uncertainty counts more than certainty
27.The author supports his ideas mainly byD.
A.giving definitions and presenting research results

16.Every year in America,high-school students who want to go on to college take a national examination called the Scholastic Aptitude Test,or SAT in a shortened way.Their score is an important factor in determining which colleges will admit them.The Scholastic Aptitude Test measures one's mathematical ability and use of the English language.Traditionally,the English part involved grammatical questions and paragraphs that test reading comprehension.

Evaluate your writing.What do you like and what you don't like about the way you write?Make changes to your letters till you like how they look.
Take your time.Make sure that,while you are writing,you take your time.Speed is sure to make your writing messy-looking.If it is worth writing well,then take your time.
Practice.Practice it a lot; it's not enough to do it once and hope for the best.It has to be something you work at to make great improvements.

3.These days,young people in some English-speaking countries are speaking a strange language,especially when communicating on social media.
Look at these words chosen by The Washington Post:"David Bowie dying is totes tradge,"and"When Cookie hugged Jamal it made me totes emosh."Or this sentence:"BAE,let me know if you stay in tonight."
What on earth do they mean?Well,"totes"is a short form of"totally".Similarly,"tradge"means"tragic"and"emosh"means"emotional".It seems that,for millennials(千禧一代),typing in this form is not only time-saving but fashionable.
As you can see,many millennial slangs(俚語(yǔ))are formed by so-called"totesing"-the systematic abbreviation(縮寫)of words.The trend might have started with"totally"becoming"totes",but it now has spread to many other English words.
The origins of other millennial slangs are more complex than"totesing"."Bae",for example,has been widely used by African-Americans for years.It can be an expression of closeness with one's romantic partner or,like"sweetheart",for someone without romantic connection.After pop singer Pharrell used the word in his work,"bae"became mainstream.
Some people might think millennial slangs lower the value of the English language,but Melbourne University linguist(語(yǔ)言學(xué)家)Rosey Billington doesn't agree.She says when people are able to use a language in a creative way,they show that they know the language rules well enough to use words differently.Two other linguists,Lauren Spradlin and Taylor Jones,share the same view.The two analysed hundreds of examples of totes-speak and discovered totesing has complex roots.
    It isn't simply an adult version of baby talk,nor a clever way to minimize your word count.Rather,it is a highly organized system that relies on a speaker's mastery of English pronunciation.It is about sounds,follows sound system of English and has strict rules.
28.Why do young people like using e-slangs?B
A.They are time-consuming.
B.They are in fashion.
C.They are complex.
D.They are in order.
29.What's the author's purpose of mentioning"Bae"in Paragraph 5?D
A.To support that totesing is no baby talk.
B.To analyse the usage of millennial slangs.
C.To inform people how it became mainstream.
D.To explain the complex origins of millennial slangs.
30.Which statement may Rosey Billington agree with?D
A.Totesing is a loosely organized system.
B.Millennial slangs lower the value of English.
C.It's simply a clever way to reduce the word count.
D.Totes-speak requires a good command of English.
31.What's the best title of the passage?A
A.E-slangs Catch on Among Youth           
B.Linguists Disapprove of Totesing
C.Millennial Slangs Take the Lead         
D.English Has Greatly Changed.

20.If your job invo1ves standing for several hours at a time,then this innovative(創(chuàng)新的)    Archelis chair is just the product you've been waiting for.The strap-on wearable chair    effectively enables you sit while you're standing.
Technically,Archelis isn't really a chair.It's more like a leg brace that wraps around your buttocks and 1egs,helping you choose a stance(站姿)that's more comfortable than standing upright.You can lock the device at various positions to adjust the angle of you ankle and knee joints.Once you select the position of your choice,you'11experience the relaxation of sitting without actually being seated.The device distributes the pressure over your shin and thigh,reducing overall muscle and joint fatigue.
Archelis is made entirely of carbon parts,which are flexible and comfortable for use over    1ong periods of time.It does not require batteries or power too perate.It was originally developed to help surgeons rest their legs while performing long surgeries,but it is also expected to appeal to people in other professions like teaching,hospitality,or factory work.
Developed by Nitto,a Japanese company that makes all kinds of model,in cooperation  with Chiba university's Center for Frontier Medical Engineering,Hiroaki Nishimura Design,and Japan Polymer Technology,the product is still in development and is expetcted to hit the market later this year.
The concept of wearable chair isn't entirely new.In fact,Swiss start-up Noonee also has a similar concept called Chairless Chair,a hydraulic(水力的)powered device that provides lower body support to people who have to stand upright for long periods of time.Archelis looks much cooler,though.
28.What does Paragraph 2mainly tell us about Archelis?B
A.What it looks like.    
B.How it works.
C.When it is most effective.
D.Why it is put into use.
29.Which of the following best describes Archelis?A
A.F1exible and comfortable.    
B.New and expensive
C.Wearable and inconvenient.
D.Innovative and productive
30.In what aspect is Archelis similar to Chairless Chair?D
A.Neither of them is coo1.
B.They are both operated by electricity.
C.They are only developed for use in hospital.
