29、理解 (共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分) 閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。 A Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you're doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you're holding a large glass of iced tea.The physical sensation (感覺) of warmth encourages emotional warm

30、th, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions — those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A．Bargh. Psychologists have known that one person's perception (感知) of another's “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships.

31、 Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies' conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensation

32、s, particularly warmth and coldness.Classic studics by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow's work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the nee

33、d for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills. Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal.Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm”， or “cold” is

34、common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries. To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study's hypo

35、theses (假設(shè))，handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of“Person A”based on a particular description. Those who had brie

36、fly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink. “We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly，” says Bargh. 【語篇解讀】 最近的心理學(xué)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，人們對“溫暖”或者“寒冷”的感受可以改變?nèi)藗兊那楦小? 36．According to Paragraph 1, a person's emotion may be affected by_____

37、___. A．the visitors to his office B．the psychology lessons he has C．his physical feeling of coldness D．the things he has bought online 解析　細節(jié)理解題。由文章第一段的第三句話可知，溫暖的感覺激發(fā)溫暖的情感，而冷飲在手則會阻止你做出不明智的決定，因此可以說一個人的情感可能會受到冷的感覺的影響。 答案　B 37．The author mentions Harlow' s experiment to show that________.

38、 A．a(chǎn)dults should develop social skills B．babies need warm physical contact C．caregivers should be healthy adults D．monkeys have social relationships 解析　細節(jié)理解題。在試驗中，猴子喜歡去靠近布制的“媽媽”而不喜歡“金屬線”做的“媽媽”。這使心理學(xué)家們強調(diào)養(yǎng)育者應(yīng)該讓孩子們多接觸一些令人感覺溫暖的東西，以幫助孩子們成長為有正常社交技能的健康的成年人，故B項正確。 答案　B 38．In Bargh' s experiment,

39、the students were asked to________. A．evaluate someone's personality B．write down their hypotheses C．fill out a personal information form D．hold coffee and cold drink alternatively 解析　細節(jié)理解題。由文中倒數(shù)第二段中的“After that，the students were asked to rate the personality of‘Person A’ based on a partic

40、ular description.”可知選A。在試驗中，學(xué)生被要求評價某人的性格。 答案　A 39．We can infer from the passage that________. A．a(chǎn)bstract thinking does not come from physical experiences B．feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide C．physical temperature affects how we see others D．capable persons are often co

41、ld to others 解析　推理判斷題。全文都在論述人們對“溫暖”或“寒冷”的感覺可以影響人們對事物的評價。因此，物理溫度會影響我們看待他人的方式。因此選C。 答案　C B Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there's no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You onl

42、y have to share your children's curiosity(好奇). Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job.The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary(薪水) and whether I liked my job.When I finished answering, we sat facing o

43、ne another in silence. Finally I said, “Now that we're finished with your lists,_do you have questions of your own about science？” After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why？” This began a set

44、 of questions that lasted nearly two hours. Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds

45、 or more, children give more logical(符合邏輯的), complete and creative answers. Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don't jump in with “That's right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior(行為). But in talking ab

46、out science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying “That's interesting” or “I'd never thought of it that way before”， or coming up with more questions or ideas. Never push a child to “Think”. It doesn't make sense, children are always thinking, withou

47、t your telling them to. What's more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target(目標(biāo)) for your disagreement. Lastly, show; don't tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more im

48、pressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大鏡), and they'll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸發(fā)), set a pot of water to boil and let the

49、m watch the water level drop. 【語篇解讀】 本文闡述了如何激發(fā)孩子們對科學(xué)的興趣，以引導(dǎo)孩子們學(xué)科學(xué)。 40. According to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is________. A．to let them see the world around B．to share the children's curiosity C．to exp

50、lain difficult phrases about science D．to supply the children with lab equipment 解析　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段第三句中的．..share your children's curiosity可推知答案為B。 答案　B 41．In the last sentence of the first paragraph, the word “l(fā)ists” could best be replaced by________. A．a(chǎn)ny questions B．a(chǎn)ny problems C．ques

51、tions from textbooks D．a(chǎn)ny number of questions 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段第六句The children asked me “textbook questions”可推知答案為C。 答案　C 42．According to the passage, children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults________. A．a(chǎn)sk them to answer quickly B．wait for one

52、or two seconds after a question C．tell them to answer the next day D．wait at least for three seconds after a question 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第四段最后一句When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.可推知答案為D。 答案　D 43．In which of t

53、he following paragraph(s) does the author tell us what to say to encourage children in a science discussion? A．The second and third. B．The fourth and fifth. C．The fifth and sixth. D．The seventh. 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)問題的內(nèi)容可在文章的第五、六段找到答案。 答案　C C Bringing up children is hard work, and you are ofte

54、n to blame for any bad behavior of your children. If so, Judith Rich Hams has good news for you. Parents, she argues, have no important long-term effects on the development of the personality of their children. Far more important are their playground friends and neighborhood companions. Ms Harris ta

55、kes to bits the assumption which has dominated (支配) developmental psychology for almost half a century. Ms Harris' attack on the developmentalists “nurture” argument looks likely to reinforce (加強) doubts that the profession was already having. If parents matter, why is it that two adopted children,

56、 reared in the same home, are no more similar in personality than two adopted children reared in separate homes? Or that a pair of identical twins, reared in the same home, are no more alike than a pair of identical twins reared in different homes? Difficult as it is to track the precise effects of

57、 parental upbringing, it may be harder to measure the exact influence of the peer (同齡人) group in childhood and adolescence. Ms Harris points to how children from immigrant homes soon learn not to speak at school in the way their parents speak. But acquiring a language is surely a skill, rather than

58、a characteristic of the sort developmental psychologists hunt for. Certainly it is different from growing up tensely or relaxedly, or from learning to be honest or hard－working or generous. Easy though it may be to prove that parents have little impact on those qualities, it will be hard to prove th

59、at peers have vastly more. Moreover, mum and dad surely cannot be ditched completely. Young adults may, as Ms Harris argues, be keen to appear like their contemporaries. But even in those early years, parents have the power to open doors: they may initially choose the peers with whom their young as

60、sociate, and pick that influential neighborhood. Moreover, most people suspect that they come to resemble their parents more in middle age, and people's child－rearing habits may be formed partly by what their parents did. So the balance of influences is probably complicated, as most parents already

61、suspected without being able to demonstrate it scientifically. Even if it turns out that the genes they pass on and the friends their children play with matter as much as affection, discipline and good example，parents are not completely off the hook. 【語篇解讀】 “子不教，父之過”，這一傳統(tǒng)的觀點受到人們的挑戰(zhàn)與質(zhì)疑。 Ms Harris研究

62、發(fā)現(xiàn)，子女性格的養(yǎng)成，更多地受到他們周圍的朋友和鄰居的影響。 44．According to Ms Harris，________. A．parents are to blame for any bad behavior of their children B．children's personality is shaped by their friends and neighbors C．nature rather than upbringing has a significant effect on children's personality development

63、 D．parents will greatly affect the children's life in the long run 解析　推理判斷題。第一段說“孩子性格更多是受朋友和鄰居的影響”。 答案　B 45．The word “ditched”(Line 1, Para.4)could best be replaced by________. A．proved B．emphasized C．compared D．ignored 解析　詞義猜測題。第四段第一句意為，此外，父母的影響肯定不容忽視。 答案　D 46．The developme

64、ntal psychologists think________. A．children are more influenced by their peers B．identical twins raised in the same home are different in personality C．twins raised in two separate families are different in personality D．upbringing has a less significant effect on children's personality dev

65、elopment 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段可知，雙胞胎在不同家庭成長，也就會有不同的性格。 答案　C 47．According to Paragraph 3, we know that________. A．it is easier for children to gain a language at home B．it is harder to follow the effects of parental upbringing C．immigrant children avoid speaking the same way as their parents at s

66、chool D．it is proved that peers have a greater effect on children's qualities 解析　細節(jié)理解題。文章第三段說移民家庭里的孩子在學(xué)校不會像父母一樣說話。 答案　C D It was only a few weeks after my operation, and I went to Dr.Belt's office for a checkup. I still had terrible pain from the scar. As usual, I was taken to an examination room to have my blood drawn, again—a terrifying process for me, since I'm so frightened of needles. I lay down on the examining table. Ramona entered the room. Her warm sparkling smile w
