  • 第7题:

    Beauty has always been regarded as something praise worthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable occupations. Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants (被告). But in the executive circle, beauty can become a liability.
    While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.
    Handsome male executives were thought as having more integrity than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to account for their success.
    Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones; their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.
    All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.
    Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attractive man more masculine (有男子气概的) than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the "masculine" qualities required.
    This is true even in politics. ′When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently,′ says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates. She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.
    The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.
    The author writes this passage to ____________.

    A.give advice to job-seekers who are attractive
    B.discuss the negative aspects of being attractive
    C.demand equal rights for women
    D.state the importance of appearance

    答案:B
    解析:

    Why is a woman better at learning foreign languages than a man?
    A

    The area of the left side of a woman’s brain for language learning develops better than that of a man’s.

    B

    The right side of a woman’s brain for language develops better than that of a man’s.

    C

    The area of the left side of a woman’s brain for feelings develops better than that of a man’s.

    D

    The area of the right side of a woman’s brain fit for seeing in the dark develops better than that of a man’s.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    由题干中关键词learning foreign languages对原文进行定位。根据文章可知人类左半脑发展数学、言语、阅读等,“In men and women, different areas in each side of the brain develop differently. (男女左右半脑不同区域发展情况不同。),而后对此进行举例“In boys, for example, it is the area for mathematics;and in girls it is the area for language learning that develops better”(男孩数学区域发展较好,女孩语言区域发展较好)。这里需要注意例子中比较级的使用。由此可知,女孩子左半脑掌管语言的区域要比男孩子的发展的好。所以A项是正确答案。
    【录音原文】
      Do you believe that men and women think differently? Many people say no. They say men and women are born with exactly the same abilities to think and learn. They think social life affects their ways of thinking.
      In the past ten years, many scientists have studied the differences between men and women and they all got the same conclusion:men and women are different because their brains are different and this makes men and women see the world in different ways. Boys, for example, are generally better than girls at mathematical ideas involving objects and their relationships. Boys also are generally faster in response than girls of hand and eye movements in ball games. Girls, on the other hand, generally start speaking earlier and can see better in the dark and are better at learning foreign language than boys.
      What makes men and women better at one thing or another? The answer is the brain. The brain has two sides. The nerves on the left side are for mathematics, speech, reading, etc, while those on the right side are for artistic creation and other senses. In men and women, different areas in each side of the brain develop differently. In boys, for example, it is the area for mathematics;and in girls it is the area for language learning that develops better. Another interesting difference is that the two sides of a man’s brain are interconnected by a smaller number of nerves than in the case of a woman, so the flow of information between them is more limited Scientists think this affects some of our abilities.

  • 第16题:

    (阅读理解题)Advertising is a form. of selling. It makes you want to buy a product or a service. In order to attract your interest it uses various approaches. One is the emotional approach. For example, consider an advertisement for a blanket. It is beautifully printed in full color. It shows a young woman looking dreamily at a pretty blanket. “To you a blanket is more than a source of warmth,” it says. “You need beauty as well as a good night’s sleep.” Looking at the advertisement, you may feel flattered. You may feel yourself different from those who buy blankets simply for warmth. And so you may want to have one yourself. In the same way, a man may buy a certain make of car just because he wants to impress his friends. This seems ridiculous, of course, since people buy a car as a means of transportation. But there are many people who secretly feel that a certain car will give them prestige. To realize this, you have only to look at TV commercials in which nice-looking cars are shown together with people everyone admires. On the contrary, when a man buys a delivery truck for his business that is not the case. Here he will not try to seem important as he may when he buys a luxury car. What he has in mind is a truck that will do its job efficiently. Similarly, a woman buying a refrigerator will not be led by her emotions so easily. She wants to know such facts as how much food it can hold and whether the food is easy to reach. In such cases, advertising is generally straightforward. It gives you the facts about a product rather than an idea. Generally, advertisements use either the emotional or the rational approach, or a combination of the two. Advertising reflects our way of living. This is one reason why an American university has recently set up a place storing historical records for TV commercials that have been used in the past. They will be useful in learning why people really behaved, thought, and acted as they did in the days when these commercials appeared on TV.

    (1).What does advertising sell?

    A、A product or a service

    B、Emotion or ration

    C、Facts or ideas

    D、Impression or prestige.

    (2).What will you feel when looking at the advertisement at which a beauty is looking dreamily?

    A、to be worried

    B、to be relaxed

    C、to be praised and pleased

    D、to be cheated

    (3).Which “make” in the following sentences is the same as the one (underlined) in Para. 2?

    A、My parents always make me do my homework before I go out

    B、With blood pouring from his leg, he made it to a nearby house

    C、It’s one of the most popular makes of satellite phone on the market

    D、None of the above

    (4).Which of the following commodities should use the emotional approach in advertising according to the passage?

    A、delivery truck

    B、car

    C、refrigerator

    D、washing machine

    (5).According to the passage, which of the following statement is NOT true?

    A、Advertising can help us to know how people live in the past

    B、The emotional approach focuses on the customers’ feelings while the rational approach concentrates on the products’ functions

    C、What you buy should make others think highly of you

    D、To some degree, TV commercials can help people make decisions.

    请阅读短文,完成此题。
    When I read last week that Angela Ahrendts was getting up to $68m as a welcome gift forjoining Apple, my mind skipped at once to her husband. This latest addition to her vast stash ofmoney must catapult her spouse Gregg to the very top of the global my-wife-earns-more-than-meleague table.
    It is quite an achievement. I have no idea if the two of them like each other, but they havestuck it out for a long time. They met at school and he chucked his job to follow her to the UKwhen she became head of Burberry; he seems to have spent the last eight years mainly looking aftertheir three children, revamping their home and putting supper on the table for her when she finallystaggered in on her five-inch heels. I suspect the real genius of Ms Ahrendts lies less in the wayshe persuaded people to buy 22,000 raincoats with peacock feather trims than in persuadingGregg to marry her--and to stick with her ever since.
    It is no longer particularly rare for women to be the main breadwinner--in the US a quarter ofwives now earn more than their husbands--but what is rarer is for such a relationship to work. A
    book published last week by the journalist Farnoosh Torabi draws together data showing just howhard it is: high-earning women have difficulty finding a husband, and when they do, he is five timesas likely to be unfaithful as other husbands. The woman will probably do more than her share ofchores; though in the unusual event that he starts ironing and cooking, he is likely to end upfeeling so unmanly. Either way, divorce beckons.
    If I think of my many female friends who have out-earned their husbands, a suspiciously largenumber are divorced. One friend complained that she no longer knew what her husband was for ashe neither made much money nor showed any desire to help out at home. Hardly surprisingly, hisversion of events was different: as she insisted on dominating both at work and at home, he'd beenleft un-manned and without a role.
    ! know of only two sets of good friends where the woman earns more and where the marriageseems solid. In one there are no children, so the two spend their spare time being nice to eachother. In the second, the man is so good at child-rearing and cooking while the woman is sohopeless around the house, so everyone seems happy.
    The majority of colleagues, even very young ones, still seem to be in relationships where theman makes more. One fiercely clever young male colleague says his equally clever feministgirlfriend has told him she could never marry a man who earned less as she didn't fancy a lifespent propping up his ego.

    Which of the following is not the problem when the wife earns more than her husband?
    查看材料

    A.The man may be more likely to be unfaithful than other husbands.
    B.The woman will probably do more than her share of housework.
    C.The man will feel that he is badly in need of manliness.
    D.The wife may look down on her husband.

    答案:D
    解析:
    根据题干中的the problem when the wife earns more than her husband可定位至第三段“how hard it is:high-earning women have difficulty finding a husband,and when they do,he is five times as likely to be unfaithful as other husbands.The woman will probably do more than her share of chores;though in the unusual event that he starts ironing and cooking,he is likely to end up feeling so unmanly.”由此可知,A、B、C都正确,而D项“女人会看不起比自己收入低的丈夫”,文章中并没有提到这一点。

    Beauty has always been regarded as something praise worthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable occupations. Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants (被告). But in the executive circle, beauty can become a liability.
    While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.

    All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.
    Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attractive man more masculine (有男子气概的) than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the "masculine" qualities required.

    Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body.There are times when?most of us would rather eat sweets and ice-cream than meat and rice.Sweets and ice-cream are not?bad if we eat them at the end of a meal.If we eat them before a meal,they may take away our appe-tite(食欲)~It is important for us to eat our meals at the same time each day.When we feel hungry,it is a sign that our body needs food.When we feel angry or excited,we may not want to eat.A long time ago,in England,some judges used to decide whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread.If the man could not eat the bread,it showed that he was telling lies.Although this seems very strange and rather foolish,it is indeed a very good way of finding out the fact.A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in eating anything dry.Because he is worrying,he loses his appetite and does not want to eat.

    among children born out of wedlock there were more girls than boys.

    B

    the chance of a woman giving birth to a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived.

    women who have not been living with a man are more likely to have daughters.


    正确答案: C

    录音中Karen Norberg在研究中发现“the chance of a woman giving birth to a boy rather than a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived”,可见在他看来一个女人在怀孩子之前与一个男人一起生活那么她生男孩的几率就相对较大,因此选项D的推断正确。
    【录音原文】
    Can household arrangements affect the human sex ratio? According to Karen Norberg, of the National Bureau of Economic Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, they can. In a review of data from almost 60, 000 American families, Dr Norberg found that the chance of a woman giving birth to a boy rather than a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived. To be specific, for parents who were living together, boys were born 51.5% of the time, while when the parents were not cohabiting only 49.9% of births were male. This difference may seem small, but statistically it is highly significant, which suggests it is the result of evolution.
