第2题：
All of the following are true EXCEPT __.（ ）
[A] men tend to talk more in public than women
[B] nearly 50 percent of recent divorces are caused by failed conversation
[C] women attach much importance to communication between couples
[D] a female tends to be more talkative at home than her spouse
正确答案：B
以下选项除_____ 外均表述正确。
[A]在公共场合男性往往比女性健谈
[B]最近的离婚案例中近一半是因为交流不畅造成的
[C]女性将夫妻之间的交流看得很重要
[D]女性在家往往比她们的伴侣更健谈
答案解析：[B]事实细节题。本题可定位到第三段最后一句“Given the current divorce rate of nearly 50 percent，that amounts to millions of cases in the United States every year——a virtual epidemic of failedconversation．”联系上下文可知，目前的离婚率接近50%，按这个比例计算的话，在美国每年因交流不畅导致的离婚案例得有上百万，并不是说“最近的离婚案例中近一半是因为交流不畅造成的”，故[B]错误，为正确答案。第二段明确说明“公共场合男性比女性爱讲话”，所以[A]正确，排除。[c]和[D]也分别能在第四段和第二段找到依据，均为正确表述，故排除。 -

1.All research to date on body image shows that women are much more critical of their appearance than men and much less likely to admire what they see in the mirror. Up to 8 out of 10 women are dissatisfied with their reflection,and more than half may see a distorted image.
2.Men looking in the mirror are more likely to be either pleased with what they see or indifferent. Research shows that men generally have a much more positive body-image than women一if anything,they may tend to over-estimate their attractiveness.Some men looking in the mirror may literally not see the flaws in their appearance.
3.Why are women too much more self-critical than men?Because women are judged on their appearance more than men,and standards of female beauty are considerably higher and more inflexible.Women are continually bombarded with images of the inflexible.Women are continually bombarded with images of the"ideal"face.And constant exposure to idealized images of female beauty on TV,magazines and billboards makes exceptional good looks seem normal and anything short of perfection seem abnormal and ugly.It has been estimated that young women now see more images of outstandingly beautiful women in one day than our mothers saw throughout their entire adolescence.
4.Also,most women are trying to achieve the impossible:standards of female beauty have in fact become progressively more unrealistic during the last century.In 1917,the physically perfect woman was about 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighed nearly 10 stone（约140磅）.Even 25 years ago, top models and beauty queens weighed only 8% less than the average woman,now they weigh 23% less.The current media ideal for women is achievable by less than 5% of the female population一and that's just in terms of weight and size.If you want the ideal shape,face,etc, it's probably more like 1%.Paragraph 4_________

正确答案： C解析：
推理题。注意本题的关键词EXCEPT。根据题干定位至原文第四段。由本段第二句可以看出，作者是家里最年长的，A选项的说法正确，不选。从第三句母亲肩上的担子很重可以推断出家里生活艰难，B选项的说法也正确，不选。该段的第五、六句指出，作者渴望得到母亲的关心，并在第七句中进一步指出他需要了解到母亲不仅仅把他当作一个帮手和持家的小顶梁柱，他需要得到母亲的爱，但从后文得知，他并未得到这个，也可以说，在母亲眼里作者仅仅是一个维持生计的帮手，由此便可知C选项的说法正确而D选项的说法错误。本题为反选题，故正确答案为D。 -

单选题All the following can be employed to make the report more effective EXCEPT_____.Aproviding more vivid pictures and details
Bchanging the style to cater for the audience’s appetite
Cmore live coverage to replace the linguistic explanation
Dinterval shifts of the materials of the coverage
正确答案： A解析：
本题可用排除法。倒数第二段第二句提到“A vivid pictorial report followed by less exacting…”可见插入图片是有效的，排除A项。第五段第三句提到“A decline in live coverage could send viewers away and drive ratings down”现场报道的减少可能会使收视率降低，这也就从反面说明现场报道而不只是口头解释会更有效，故排除B项。倒数第二段第四句提到“Frequent switches from one anchor to another or from one film or tape report to another create a sense of forward movement.”频繁地从一个节目跳到另一个会产生一种“前向运动”的感觉。这也从反面说明报道中间隔的休息也是必要的，选项D也可排除。所以选B。
