Language is our greatest treasure as a species, and what do we habitually do with it? We 1 . About others behavior and private lives, such as whos doing what with whom, whos in and whos out-and why.

So why are we keen on gossiping(說长道短)? Are we just natural 2 , of both time and words? Or do we talk a lot about nothing in 3 simply to avoid facing up to the really important issues of life? Its not the case according to Professor Robin Dunbar. 4 , in his latest book, Grooming, Gossip and the Evolution (进化) of Language, the psychologist says gossip is one of these really 5 issues.

Dunbar 6 the traditional view that language was developed by the men at the early stage of social development in order to organize their manly 7 activities more effectively, or even to promote the exchange of 8 about their origins and the supernatural. Instead he suggests that language evolved among women. We dont spend two-thirds of our time gossiping just because we can talk, argues Dunbar— 9 , he goes on to say, language evolved specifically to allow us to gossip.

Dunbar arrived at his cheery theory by studying the 10

of the higher primates (灵长类动物)like monkeys. By means of grooming—cleaning the fur by brushing it, 11 form groups with other individuals on whom they can rely for support in the event of some kind of conflict within the group or 12 from outside it.

But as the groups got bigger and bigger, the amount of time spent in grooming activities also had to be 13 to maintain its effectiveness. Clearly, a more 14 kind of grooming was needed, and thus language evolved as a kind of vocal(有声的)grooming which allowed humans to develop relationship with ever-larger groups by exchanging information over a wider network of individuals than would be possible by one-to-one 15

contact.

The first time I saw Suzy Khan, I knew I had to help her. She was really small for her age of 12. The boy in my class often

I could hear everyone whispering. “Who in our school could draw that well?”

Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “Since this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves a 13 ,too. Our mystery(神秘) artist is our new student — Suzy Khan!”

Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artists set. “Thank you,” she cried.

From my second grade on, there was one event I feared every year: the piano recital(獨奏演唱会). A recital 1 I had to practice a boring piece of music and perform before strangers. Each year I would ask my father if I could skip the recital “just this once”. And each year he would shake his head, muttering(嘀咕) something about build self-confidence and working toward a 2 .

So it was with really great 3 that I stood in church one recent Sunday, video camera in hand, and 4 my 68-year-old father sweating in his shirt before rising to play the piano in his very first recital.

My father had longed to play music since childhood, but his family was poor and couldnt 5 lessons. He could have gone on regretting it, as too many of us do. But though he was rooted in his past, he wasnt 6 there. When he retired three years ago, he 7 his church music director to take him as a student.

For a moment after my father sat down at the keyboard, he 8 stared down at his fingers.

But then came the beautiful melody(旋律),from the 12 fingers that once baited(装饵于)my fishing lines.

“Im 14 of him for starting something new at his age,” I said to my son Jeff.

“Yeah, and doing it so 15 ,” Jeff added.

With his first recital, my father taught me more about courage and determination than all the words he used those 30-plus years ago.

I had worried myself sick over Simons mother coming to see me. I was a new 1 , and I gave an honest account of the students work. In Simons case, the grades were awfully low. He couldnt read his own handwriting. But he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his 2 .

So when Simons mother entered the room, my palms(手掌心) were sweating. I was completely 3 for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech. Because of me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he 4 me, he had began to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had recently spent an afternoon at a friends house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the 5 I had nurtured(培養) in her son. She kissed me again and left.

I sat, stunned (惊呆), for about half an hour, 6 what had just happened. How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without 7 knowing it What I finally came to 8 was one day, several months before, when some students were giving reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke 9 , and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up. Simons the expert on this. He is the 10 one you have to convince, and he cant hear you in the 11 of the room.” That was it. From that day on,Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention,

12 more, and became happy. And it was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed 13 was the one who took the last seat that day.

It taught me the most 14 lesson over the years of my teaching career, and Im thankful that it came 15 and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

One night, when I was eight, my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget. “Sweetie, my company wants to

It was then that I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on 8 family and work. Faced with difficult 9 , she used to tell me, you wouldnt know whether you make the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with passion and a 10 attitude.

Back home, I 11 myself that what my mother could do, I could, too. If she 12 to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be 13 . I learn how to take care of myself and set high but achievable goals.

My mother is now back with us. But I will never forget what the 14 has really taught me. Sacrifices 15 off in the end. The separation between us has proved to be blessing for me.

4. D 由another可知,选与上文出现过的taxi,原词复现。即,上文提到我是坐计程车到住的地方,第二天我坐另一辆计程车购物中心。

5. C 前面说我去买纪念品,下一句提到我去吃午饭,这两个动作应该是先后发生的,即买了纪念品之后去吃午餐,表示“后来”,选Later,表示后来,接下来。

6. A 由下段第一句sat down with the lady and we had a happy lunch together可知,那位女士是说“可以共用这张桌子”,故选A。

7. A 由本段第5句,“I am retired(我退休了)”可知,这位女士年纪比较大了,故选A。

8. B 上句提到吃午餐,这里应是指”吃饭(meal)”快结束了(draw to a close)。

9. D 句中hire a car是线索,雇车是需要用钱的,所以接下来的说到计程车也应该是和收费有关,作者既没有雇车,也不知道坐计程车究竟多贵,选D。

10. D 老妇人让作者不要再坐计程车(dont use any more taxis),可知她是说开车送(drive)作者去想去的任何地方;另外本段倒数第四句she took me to Disney World也表明老妇人开车送我,故选D。

11. C 联系上文,老妇人提出开车送我游玩,我觉得不能给老妇人添麻烦,选C。

12. B 老妇人坚持要帮忙,而且下文写着她在我公寓楼下等我,表明老妇人问的是我住的地方,故选B。

13. B 根据句意,在让我独自在Orlando探索之前,老妇人陪了我一段时间。A消化,C表现,D计算都不符合句意。

14. C 上一句写道后来有一段时间我是独自探索Orlando的,本句写着天黑时,老妇人应该是回来带我返回(return)公寓。

15. A 老妇人热情帮忙,说明她是非常友好的。“自信”“高贵”“好奇心”都应排除。

7. 辽宁卷

本文记叙了作者与妻子的晚餐约会再次迟到后,与妻子言谈间不欢而散。偶尔与朋友谈起这件事时,慢慢明白与妻子在这件事上的分歧,而后学会准时赴约的事。

1. B 约了妻子吃晚饭,两人是”约好”7点见面,agreed正是此意。A开始,C继续,都不符合,D成功做某事,第一句已经说明当时是7∶30分,所以他们不可能7点钟见面。

2. A 由but可知,虽然我有点不安,可是下文提到 a good excuse,这让我舒了一口气。

3. C 根据第一段第2句,提到他们约在餐厅见面,选C。

4. B 根据下文my explanation seemed to make things worse, which started to drive me mad as well可以看出,我越解释情况越糟糕,最后连我也要发疯了。说明妻子说You never mean to的时候,我知道她是非常生气的。

5. D 我跟妻子解释a business meeting had run over,而开会时间延长是突发事件,无法避免的,所以选D。

6. A 因为“my explanation seemed to make things worse”,我向妻子解释是希望她不生气,但事情却变得更糟糕了,前后形成了转折关系,选D。

7. D我向朋友Ken讲了这件事之后,he smiled。证明我是和Ken当面说这件事,因此选D(描述)。

8. C 根据第二段第1句“我向妻子道歉并告诉她我并不是故意迟到的(I didnt mean to be late)”,这里是上文的复现,选C intend( to do sth.)表示打算做某事。

9. B 因Ken指明“thats not the point(这不是重点)”,下面一句话应该指出“重点”在哪里,所以选B。

10. A 从上文我们知道正是因为作者迟到引发矛盾,所以应该选A,表明“谈话中的重点是你迟到(这一结果)对你妻子有怎样的影响”。

11. C 由think about(考虑)可知选C,表示我经过思考,“渐渐”明白产生矛盾的根源。

12. B 根据上文,妻子生气是因为她关注的是我迟到这个“结果”。所以选B,指“行动的结果起了关键作用”。如果学生熟悉It doesnt matter(没关系,无关紧要)这个句子,也可以顺利选出答案。

13. D 上一句讲了,正是行动的结果起了关键作用,所以我谈话时应该以我的行动对妻子的影响作为开始,选D。

14. D 我本来应该以迟到对妻子的影响作为谈话开头,接下来再解释迟到的原因,甚至永远都不解释(以此来挽救不愉快的谈话)。A(对比),B(报道)均不符合句意;C表示完成对话,既然接下来才解释原因,甚至永远不提原因,那么以解释原因来完成对话显然是不对的,排除C。

15. C 最后一句讲了我以后都努力做到准时赴约,所以选C,表明我跟妻子沟通后,明白了妻子因为我迟到所产生的不愉快情绪,所以我以后努力做到不迟到。

8. 四川卷

本文记叙的是作者的丈夫Tom与雌性松鸡Mildred成为朋友,后来Mildred还和作者周围的人和谐相处的故事。

1. D首句写到作者看到Tom和松鸡成为朋友很吃惊,后一句写着我们很难发现松鸡,因此选D,表明松鸡和人类接触是“不寻常”的事情。

2. A根据第6段第1句”As spring went and summer came, Mildred ...”春去夏来,Mildred出现的次数更多了,说明Mildred是从春天就出现了,选A。

3. B根据句意,Mildred是在Tom 田间工作时出现的,选项B (注意),表明Tom在工作时,注意到松鸡在田间边缘走来走去。

4. D 上文提到they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching,而Mildred却是在Tom工作的地方走来走去,这样的行为是令人惊讶的,选D。

5. C 因Tom好几次看见这只松鸡,而且她在Tom身边越来越显得自由自在,且与下文第6段第3句”This friendly grouse”是复现词,选C。

6. C 根据首句Tom, has always been good with animals,可以推测选C,表示我们很快喜欢上这只松鸡,还给她名为Mildred。

7. D 联系上文,松鸡已经来到Tom身边,Tom不会看不到她。所以选D,表示Tom假装没有看见它。

8. A上一段写到Tom假装没看到Mildred,而本段第2句写Mildred故意去啄Tom的手,看Tom有什么反应,说明Mildred是希望引起人的关注,而不喜欢被人忽略,选A。

9. B 由Shed run up and peck at Toms hands,看出她是跑上前去啄Tom的手,所以选B,表示退后几步看看Tom的反应。

10. B 从句意理解,Mildred啄Tom的手,然后退回来,几次重复这一活动,直到她厌倦了这个“游戏”才离开。Mildred的行动不是工作,排除A;根据下文,Mildred跟我们的相处显得越来越自在了,所以Mildred不应该是对地方或人感到厌倦才离开,排除C和D。

11. A 春去夏来,Mildred与人类相处越来越自在”最后,她终于敢停在Tom的腿上了”,选A。

12. C 因為Mildred停在Tom的腿上时间长,作者可以给他们拍合照。A冒险,B 梦想,D 感觉,均不符合句意。

13. A 复现词。第3段第1行,第6段的第2句都提到Mildred与Tom相处得很自在(comfortable),现在不仅和我们家相处得自在,和路过的人相处也感到自在了。

14. C 在打猎的季节,我们请“猎人”不要射杀我们的松鸡。

15. D 我的父亲,同样,也请人们不要射杀我们的松鸡,选D。

9. 江苏卷

本文记叙了卡耐基从寂寂无名,变得全世界闻名,原因是他找到自信,做到了他想做的事情。

1. D 第一段写了卡耐基成名是因为他找到了满足人类需要的方法,本段第一句是强调句,强调人类这一需要(a need)是他在1906年首次意识到的。

2. A 本段第2句讲了当时卡耐基是Warrensburg州立师范学院大三的学生,本段第4句讲了他的父亲无法提供在学院学习的某些费用,据此我们可以推断此句讲的是卡耐基为了获得教育,克服了许多困难,选A 教育。

3. B上文写卡耐基为完成学业要克服许多困难,下文写父亲无法提供某些费用,所以他的家庭是比较贫困的。

4. C 后半句讲了卡耐基每天都得骑马去上学,所以应该选一个与交通相关的词,A 训练,B教学, C寄宿,D设备,应该是他的父亲没钱为卡耐基付寄舍的膳食费,所以他才要骑马上学。

5. D 本段下一句提到他只有一套好的西装,因此我们可以推断,卡耐基除了没时间外,也没有体面的衣服去参加学校的活动。

6. A 他想去参加足球队,但是教练拒绝(turned down)他,原因他体重太轻了,选A。

7. A从本段最后1句话得知,他的妈妈鼓励他参加辩论队,这样可以让他获得自信。因此我们可以推测选A,表明他的妈妈知道,自卑感是会对他发挥潜力产生阻碍作用。

8. A根据下一段第1句,Dale took his mothers advice,既然听取了妈妈的建议,那么他的妈妈应该是建议他参加,而不是B命令,C要求,D坚持。

9. B 妈妈建议他参加辩论队,相信辩论队的演讲练习会让他产生自信。

10. C 卡耐基参加辩论队后,拼命地练习,多次尝试后做到了,根据句意,应该选 C,表示结果终于成功了。

11. D 表示转折点,根据上下文,上文写到卡耐基读大三(junior)时是自卑的,下文写了读大四时,他赢得很多的荣誉,从自卑到获奖无数,前后形成对比,所以参加辩论队成功应该是他人生的转折点。

12. D 既然人生有了转折,自卑的人应该是找到了自信。

13. C 联系上文,卡耐基是因为参加辩论队,练习演讲才找到自信的,所以应该是在演讲中获得荣誉。

14. B 因Out of this early struggle to ...意为:卡耐基由于很早努力克服了自卑感。

15. A 根据上文内容,卡耐基是因为演讲而找回自信,演讲就是要在众人面前表达自己的观点,所以选A,表示他明白在观众面前表达想法能帮助人建立自信。

10. 全国新课标1

本文主要讲了当新事情变成常规活动后,人们就会厌倦此活动,接着会继续寻找新的兴趣或爱好。文中举了不同年龄层的人作为例子来印证此观点。

1. A首句点出了本文讨论的内容——当事情成为常规活动后,人们会厌倦此活动。这应该是一种原理,法则。

2. D全文列举了小孩子、青年人、成年人、老人等不同年龄的人为例子,所以选D。

3. B由by January those same toys can be found put away in the basement可知,小孩子对(圣诞节的)玩具失去兴趣。

4. C 在and前面的句子出现了half-filled,完成一半的,and表示并列结构,所以后面是unfinished,未完成的。

5. B 未集满的集邮册,没完成的模型,表明人们都是厌倦了此项活动,不再继续,因此这些都是人们已经消逝的兴趣的纪念,选B。

6. C 根据作者提出的原则,人们一开始总是对新事物充满兴趣,所以小孩子看到父母带来宠物时,会非常开心地给他们洗澡、梳理毛发。

7. D 根据作者提出的原则,一开始是有热情,所以青年人进入高中时应该是心情兴奋。

8. A 青年人进入高中时虽然兴奋,但是很快就厌倦了,于是希望快点毕业。

9. C从前文的顺序来看,先是children,再是adolescent,然后是young adult,可以找到规律,是按人的年龄大小作为顺序的,所以接下来应该是adult。

10. B 只有B(急切地)能表现出成人刚拿到驾照时,非常兴奋、非常急切想要开车的心理状态。

11. D 意思是退休前计划退休后要做什么事。

12. A 由本段倒数第二句the golfing, the fishing, the reading and all of the other pastimes become as boring as the jobs they left可知,退休后的这些事,变得和他们离开的工作一样无聊,因此选A,表明计划退休后要做的事,应该是他们很有兴趣的,认为非常棒的事情。

13. A 句意思:这些事在工作时是没有时间去做的。选A。

14. D 根据作者提出的原则,对新事物有兴趣,但是很快就厌倦了。

15. B 前后呼应,上文说到小孩子对圣诞节的玩具很快就失去兴趣,在第二年的1月已经寻找新的玩具,所以选B。

5. C 他们一路下山时,天气渐渐变得更差。

6. D 前面讲了天气变差,下一句讲了他们没办法看到或听到彼此,因此,此时是产生了另一个“麻烦”。

7. D 因Joe在峭壁边缘之下,Joe腿受伤了,所以此时他不可能自己爬上去。上文还讲了他们都听不见或看不见彼此,所以Simon也不可能把Joe拉上来。

8. B 因Simon是用绳子拉着Joe的,但Joe现在是在峭壁下,因此选B,表示主要是他的重量慢慢把Simon拖向峭壁。

9. A 根据下一句In tears, he cut the rope,可知最终Simon只好忍痛做了决定。

10. B 上文写了Simon无法把在峭壁下的Joe拉上来,只好忍痛割断绳子。所以Joe应该是摔下冰裂缝。
