2.One of the most successful, influential, and beloved women in American history, Eleanor Roosevelt once said that she had one regret: She wished she had been prettier. Who hasn’t felt the same way? We are all too awake to our physical imperfections. To overcome them, we spend billions upon billions of dollars every year on cosmetics, diet products, fashion, and plastic surgery.Why do we care so much about how we look? Because it matters. Because beauty is powerful. Because even when we learn to value people mostly for being kind and wise and funny, we are still moved by beauty. No matter how much we argue against it or pretend to be immune, beauty exerts its power over us. There is simply no escape.Aristotle said, “Beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of introduction.” It’s not fair, but it’s true. We simply treat beautiful people better than we do others. Attach a photograph of a beautiful author to an essay, and people will think that it is more creative and more intelligently written than exactly the same essay accompanied by the photo of a homely author.As children, beautiful people are more likely to become favorites with parents and teachers. Later, they’re more likely to get good jobs and promotion. Beautiful lawyers get paid more than their less attractive colleagues. Good-looking criminals are more likely to win the sympathy of judges and juries. Attractive people in need are more likely to receive help from strangers.(1)Eleanor Roosevelt’s regret shows ().A、she was one of the most successful, influential, and beloved women in American historyB、she was not prettyC、she has many regretsD、even she was pretty, she wanted to be prettier(2)“It matters” in paragraph 2 line 1 means ().A、It is a matterB、It doesn’t matterC、It is importantD、It is not important(3)According to paragraph 2 and paragraph 3, which of the following is not true?A、We learn to value people mostly for being kind and wise and funny.B、We can be immune to beauty.C、Aristotle meant beauty is the best recommendation.D、People think a beautiful author’s essay is more creative and more intelligently written.(4)Paragraph 4 is written to show ().A、beauty is powerfulB、beautiful children are favorites with parents and teachersC、beautiful lawyers get higher pay than their homely colleaguesD、attractive people receive more help from strangers(5)The word “good -looking” in paragraph 4 line 3 may mean ().A、beautiful or handsomeB、lovelyC、carefulD、kind-hearted

    [D] the more developed a culture, the more valuable the music it has fostered


    正确答案:A

     本题考查推理引申。第三段第二句提到,我们(we)越来越关注民乐中的传统和民族特色,并且在对待许多传统文化遗产时愿意将民乐保存下来。第三句以音乐家记录自己国家的古典音乐为例说明上文。该句中we包括了作者本人,因此可推知[A]是作者所赞同的观点。[C]错在more,因为文中并没有将音乐家对待传统音乐和现代音乐的态度作对比。该段末句提到,人们(people)总是渴望保留个性特色,而不是找到所有文化共有的普遍特点。可见,文中只是客观叙述人们对文化的偏好,没有贬低“文化共有的普遍特点”的价值。排除[B]。该段首句提到,音乐根植于孕育了它的文化之中。这说明文化决定音乐的特色,与“发达”或“价值”没有关联,排除[D]。

  • 第6题:

    Text 2 Should we be thinking of Facebook as a news site?Is that how Facebook thinks of itself?No,not primarily,Facebook now says.In a document posted on Wednesday,the company explained,for the first time,the"values"that govem its news feed,the scrolling list of posts that Facebook presents to its l.65 billion users every time they log on.Though it is couched in the anodyne language of a corporate news release,the document's message should come as a shock to everyone in the media business.According to these values,Facebook has a single overriding purpose,and it isn't news.Facebook is mainly for telling you what's up with your friends and family.Adam Mosseri,the Facebook manager in charge of the news feed,said in a recent interview that informing and entertaining users was also part of the company's mission.But he made clear that news and entertainment were secondary pursuits."We think more,spend more time and work on more projects that try to help people express themselves with their friends or learn about their friends or have conversations with their friends,"he said.As if to underscore the point,the company is making a tweak to its news feed ranking system to increase the prominence ofcoiitent from your friends and family over posts by news companies and other organizations.It is also waming news companies that their traffic might decline as a result of the change.These moves highlight a truth that tends to get lost in commentary about the social network's influence over the news:At Facebook,infonrung users about the world will always take a back seat to cute pictures of babies..Because Facebook does not think ofitself primarily as a news company,it seems to want us to stop expecting it to act like one.Whether we should,though,is a more complicated matter.The company has long been hounded by journalists and activists over its power to shape the news through its algorithms,or the code that determines which stories you see,in the news feed.The question of how to think about Facebook's role in the news-and whether we should demand the same standards of accuracy,objectivity,transparency and fairness that we expect from traditional outlets-may be the primary puzzle ofour new media age.According to Facebook,the values outlined in the document have been the informal governing philosophy of its news feed since it was started a decade ago,and Mr.Zuckerberg and Chris Cox,Facebook's chiefproduct officer,were deeply involved in drafiing the new document.28."Take a back seat to cute pictures of babies"probably means that.

    A.babies are more important for the specific users.
    B.babies are the whole world for some users.
    C.we should support and care about our babies.
    D.most people prefer pictures of adorable babies.

    答案:A
    解析:
    推理判断题。本题询问的是“把可爱的婴儿的照片放在世界新闻前”的含义。take a back seat意思是“处于次要位置”,根据第四、五段可知,脸书注重的是用户与亲人朋友的互动,并非世界新闻,故A项“婴儿对特定用户来说更重要”为正确答案。【干扰排除】B项“婴儿是一些用户的全部”,第五段提到世界新闻只是处于照片的后面,并没有说完全没有新闻,所以B项错误;C项“我们应该支持和关心我们的孩子”,文中没有提到对孩子的关心和支持,故C项错误;D项“大多数人更喜欢可爱的婴儿的照片”,文章中没有提到多数人喜欢婴儿照片,故D项错误。

    B.has more than twenty-five years to pay back the money
    C.has less twenty-five years to pay back the money
    D.has about twenty-five years to pay back the money

    答案:A

    Successful Language Learners
    1. Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages.They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules or grammar,and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others.They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others,so what makes language learning so much eas- ier for them?Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners,we may dis- cover a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them.
    2. First of all,successful language learners are independent learners.They do not depend on the book or the teacher;they discover their own way to learn the language.Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain,they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves.They are good guess-ers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.When they guess wrong,they guess again. They try to learn from mistakes.
    3. Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore,successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language;they look for such a chance.They find people who speak the lan-guage and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake.They will try anything to communicate .They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things;they are willing to make mistakes and try again .When communication is difficult,they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete.It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.
    4. Finally,successful language learners are learners with a purpose.They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it.It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.
    5. What kind of language learner are you?If you are a successful language learner,you have probably been learning independently,actively,and purposefully. On the other hand,if your language learning has been less than successful,you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above.

    Active language learners seize every opportunity______.
    A: to discover sentence patterns and grammatical rules
    B: to expand vocabulary
    C: to use the target language
    D: to encourage unsuccessful language learners to learn independently,actively and purposefully
    E: from clues
    F: to say strange things

    本段主要讲述的是第一个学习语言的方法,就是独立学习的能力,作者通过举例子的方式来说明这一方法,例如这些人不会依赖老师或者课本,而是自己去摸索总结出一定的模式,寻找线索,大胆地不断地进行猜测,从错误中学习。
    本段主要讲述的另外一个语言学习的方法,就是积极主动学习的能力,这些人会寻找一切使用语言的机会,找人纠正他们的错误,敢于说一些即使有别扭的句子,愿意接受不准确或不完整的信息,对他们来说学习另一种思维方式比知道单词的意思更加重要。
    本段主要讲述的另外一个语言学习的方法,就是有目的性的学习的能力,这些人往往是因为对讲这种语言的人以及语言本身感兴趣才学习的英语,这样他们可以更好地和使用这种语言的当地人交流并向他们学习。
    依据是第二段第四句话:They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.

  • 第15题:

    When we talk about intelligence we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows to do.

    For example, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can do, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it all works out, but at least he tries. And if he cannot make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he failed, he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook in life, a special feeling about life, and a special way of how he fits into it.

    If you look at children, you’ll see a great difference between what we call ”bright” children and “not bright” children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amounts of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life—he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general

    1、According to this passage, intelligence is the ability to______.

    A、work by oneself do well in any

    B、situation

    C、know what is right and wrong

    D、adapt oneself to a new situation

    2、In a new situation, an intelligent person ____________.

    A、knows more about what might happen to him

    B、is well-prepared for his action

    C、pays greater attention to the situation

    D、completely ignores himself

    3、If an intelligent person failed, he would ________

    A、feel ashamed about the failure

    B、learn from his experiences

    C、find out what he can’t do

    D、make sure what’s wrong with

    his outlook in life

    4、An intelligent child ________

    A、learns more about himself

    B、shows interest in things around him

    C、studies everything that may be interesting

    D、looks down upon unintelligent children

    5、Why does an unintelligent child seem to have a wall between him and life in general?

    A、Because he can hardly see the outside world.

    B、Because life is far away from him.

    C、Because he knows nothing about life in general.

    D、Because he has little interest in things around himself.

    2.First of all,successful language learners are independent learners.They do not depend on the book or the teacher;they discover their own way to learn the language.Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain,they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves.They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.When they guess wrong,they guess again.They try to learn from mistakes.
    3.Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore,successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language;they look for such a chance.They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake.They will try anything to com-municate.They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things;they are willing to make mistakes and try again.When communication is difficult,they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete.It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.
    4.Finally,successful language learners are learners with a purpose.They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it.It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them.They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.
    5.What kind of language learner are you?If you are a successful language learner,you have probably been learning independently,actively,and purposefully.On the other hand,if your language learning has been less than successful,you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above.

    A:Ways to learn a language successfully.
    B:Learning a language purposefully.
    C:Learning a language actively.
    D:Learning a language independently.
    E:Learning from mistakes.
