【参考答案】46-50. CDBFE

阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

You’re sitting on the train home and the person opposite you yawns(打哈欠). Suddenly, you’re yawning with him, though you’re not tired.

This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagious(有感染力的) yawning, which showed that humans communicate regularly without words.

Hugo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critchley, our mind and body are in constant exchange about how we’re feeling. “Emotions are closely linked with states of internal(内部的) responses,” he explained. “There are also more visible changes in our gestures and facial

expressions. When we’re in a group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there’s the obvious tendency to smile when smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a change in our heart rate and blood pressure.”

Hugo Critchley further explained, “Our bodies synchronise and when we like the other person, we even copy his behavior. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how you’re sitting—it’s pretty likely that you will be the same. Scientists believe it’s our way of telling each other that we’re partners. Through body language, humans give each other very subtle(微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions.”

So, what lessons can we learn from this? “Spend time with happy people—otherwise your health could suffer,” said Critchley. “When we’re sad, our body goes into fight or flight mode. But when we’re happy, our body works normally and we feel relaxed and positive. So we look bright, our skin glows, we feel healthy and it affects everyone around us.”

1. According to Hugo Critchley, .

A. emotions are as visible as facial expressions

B. we yawn more frequently when we have a cold

C. emotions are connected with states of internal responses

D. the change of blood pressure is not linked with the change of emotions

2. The underlined word “synchronise” in Paragraph 4 means “ ”.

A. move slowly B. change rapidly

C. relax temporarily D. respond accordingly

3. From the passage we can learn .

A. sadness is as contagious as happiness

B. anger is less contagious than friendliness

C. surprise is more contagious than smile

D. surprise is the most contagious among emotions

4. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. Emotions have delicate influence on fellow humans.

B. Children like copying the actions of fellow humans.

C. Scientists are still confused about contagious yawning.

D. People tend to communicate more with body language.

【参考答案】1—4、CDBA

阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A funny thing happened on the way to the communications revolution: we stopped talking to one another.

I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation.There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and?I became invisible, absent from the conversation.

The telephone used to connect you to the absent.Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent.Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction.With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another.With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.

As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation(疏远) index goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anymore.Directory assistance is almost always fully automated.

I am not against modern technology.I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail system, and an e-mail account.Giving them up isn't wise, they're a great help to us.It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy.

More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation, or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn' t really have time to talk.The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier, or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts.

So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell-phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.

1．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

A.The Advance of Communications Technology

B.The Consequences of Modern Technology

C.The Story of the Communications Revolution

D.The Automation of Modern Communications

2．The sentence “Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent” means that _________.

A．the people sitting beside you have to go away to receive phone call

B．you can hardly get in touch with the people sitting beside you

C．modern technology makes it hard for people to have a face-to-face talk

D．people can now go to work without going to the office

3．The writer feels that the use of modern communications is _________.

A．satisfying B．encouraging

C．disappointing D．embarrassing

4．The passage implies that________.

A．modern technology is bridging people

B．modern technology is separating people

C．modern technology is developing too fast

D．modern technology is interrupting our communication

5．What does the underlined word “facilitating” mean?

A．加深 B．限制 C．帮助 D．装备

【要点综述】本文主要论述现代技术的消极影响——现代技术的使用在疏远人与人之间的距离。

1. B 主旨大意题。本文主要论述了现代技的影响。

2. C 句意理解题。第一段作者提出：通讯革命使我们不再面对面地交谈；第二段作者举自己生活的一例来予以说明；第三段作者感慨“Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent”，即其意应为：现在技术使人们很难有面对面的交谈。故选C项。

3. D 推理判断题。根据第五段可知，作者并不反对现代技术，也认为它极有帮助，只是某一些结果让他感到不安，比如第二段中他所举的生活例子。由此判断他会认为使用现代技术有时令人感到尴尬，故选D项。

4. B 推理判断题。根据第四段可推断现代技术正在疏远人们之间的关系，故选B项。 5. A 词义猜测题。画线词所在的这一段主要在讲述现代技术对他的消极影响，因此他才决定限制自己对现代技术的使用。由此判断画线词应意为“加深”，即：加重他的不爱交际的天性。故选A项。

阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 MUMBAI, India —The children in their party clothes on the stage were very excited when they received the award. And the two of them said, "It’s unbelievable!" Nine-year-old Rubina Ali, and Azharuddin Ismail, 10, were living a very different life and apparently loving every minute of it. The two, some of the child stars of the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire (《贫民窟的百万富翁》)movie, know the Indian slums very well. That was where they grew up, and it is where they will return at the end of their Hollywood dream trip.

But before going back home, there was an interview with the host, Ryan Seacrest. During the interview they smiled and repeated their disbelief at what was happening to them. To their surprise, their movie won the first place in the Oscars. When the two received the award, it was late morning in the children’s home city of Mumbai, where their family, friends and many fellow residents of the slums watched the results from Hollywood.

"I don’t really know what the Oscars are," Rubina’s mother said. "I’m just glad my daughter looks happy, though she told me she missed Indian food."

"Our children lead a dog’s life," Rubina’s mother said, pointing at the rubbish everywhere, the open drains (下水道) and the lack of education opportunities. In a few days they will be back in Mumbai and back in the slums. Fortunately, according to media reports, the movie’s director, Danny Boyle, has promised to help the children he chose from the slums go to a proper school.

The two don’t need to worry about their daily lives because of the Oscar success of Slumdog Millionaire. But the poverty and lack of education opportunities —the central theme of the movie —is always all around.

1. Which of the following is true about the two children?

A. They played a major role in getting India children to receive education.

2. When the children attended the Oscar ceremony in Hollywood, their family and friends were _________.

A. watching TV in MumbaiB. doing what they did as usual

C. seeing the movie Slumdog Millionaire D. having a family party

3. What will happen to the two children after they return to India?

A. They will stay at home as before.B. They will still worry about their daily lives.

C. They will leave school to learn acting. D. They will have a better education.
