A^noexplanationisnecessaryforsuchanobviousphenomenon

B、noexplanationhasbeenmadeuptonow

C、it'snoeasyjobtoprovideanadequateexplanation

D、it'shightimethatanexplanationwasprovided

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道詞組含義類問題。問第一段中challengesexplanation的意

思是什么。根據(jù)文章第一段的內(nèi)容，眾所周知，孩子學(xué)說話不是一項(xiàng)簡單的任務(wù)。

而且，對于孩子為什么能在這么短的一段時(shí)間內(nèi)學(xué)會說話，是很需要加以說明的。

另外，關(guān)鍵詞challenge的意思是“引起、激發(fā)、要求”。而“要求”做到的事往往是

艱巨的或需要費(fèi)力的事。所以，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是C”給予充分的解釋不是一件

易事“C

2、Thethirdparagraphismainlyabout.

A、thedevelopmentofbabies'earlyformsoflanguage

B>thedifficultiesofbabiesinlearningtospeak

C^babies*strongdesiretocommunicate

D、babies'intentiontocommunicate

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道段落大意類問題。問本文第三段的中心大意是什么。第三

段第一句話是本段的主題句。這段指出，對嬰兒從發(fā)聲到開始說話的過程進(jìn)行跟蹤

的困難往往相當(dāng)大。人們認(rèn)為嬰兒很喜歡發(fā)出種種聲響，從他們出生的頭幾個(gè)月發(fā)

出的這種那種聲音就可以分出是表示高興還是不高興，或是表示愿意和人呆在一

起。但這些都不能表示嬰兒想要進(jìn)行語言交際，所以不能算是初期的語言形式。人

們普遍認(rèn)為，嬰兒出生后大約3個(gè)月起就會以發(fā)聲為樂趣。漸漸地，到了6個(gè)月，

便能發(fā)出些咿呀學(xué)語的聲音。他們先是自我模仿，然后逐漸有意識地模仿別人的說

話或聲音，問題是這種模仿到了什么程度可以算是講話了。整段的意思圍繞著嬰兒

學(xué)會說話的發(fā)展過程而展開。所以，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是A。

3、Theauthor'spurposeinwritingthesecondparagraphistoshowthatchildren.

A、usuallyubeywillioulaskingqucblions

arepassiveintheprocessoflearningtospeak

C>areborncooperative

D、learntospeakbylistening

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題問的是作者寫第二段的目的是想要表達(dá)孩子們怎樣。根據(jù)第二段

的內(nèi)容，尤其是第一句主題句，學(xué)語言是從聽人說話開始的。小孩子需要聽人說多

少話才能開口說話，因人而異，而且差異很大。開口遲的孩子往往需要經(jīng)歷一段很

長的聽人說話的過程。大多數(shù)小孩子在開口說話前，往往會按大人的意思去做這樣

或那樣的動作，表示樂意配合大人學(xué)說話。在開口說話前許多小孩會做動作來提問

和發(fā)出聲響表示疑問。所以，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是D。

4、Fromthepassagewelearnthat.

A、earlystarterscanlearntospeakwithinonlysixmonths

B、childrenshowastrongdesiretocommunicatebymakingnoises

C、imitationplaysanimportantroleinlearningtospeak

D^childrenhavevariousdifficultiesinlearningtospeak

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C:

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題問從文章中我們可以了解到什么。本題考查學(xué)生對文章的重要事

實(shí)或觀點(diǎn)的理解和概括能力。根據(jù)文章第三段內(nèi)容，尤其是文章的最后兩句話指

出，嬰兒先是自我模仿然后逐漸有意識地模仿別人的話語或聲音。從模仿到學(xué)會說

話的界線是模糊的。可見，模仿在學(xué)習(xí)說話中起了重要的作用。由此我們可以推斷

出本題的正確答案應(yīng)是C。

5、Thebesttitleforthispassagewouldbe.

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題問本文的最佳標(biāo)題是什么。通過通讀全文內(nèi)容，概括全文大意，

D、MoreandmoreconsumerspreferInternetshopping.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道判斷是非題。問按照作者的觀點(diǎn)，哪個(gè)說法是正確的。文

章第一段提到，到1998年，消費(fèi)者幾乎可以在因特網(wǎng)上購買任何東西，書籍、光

盤、甚至股票都可以通過進(jìn)入相應(yīng)的網(wǎng)址買到，這些網(wǎng)址似乎每天都在增加。幾年

前，有些人還預(yù)言說，習(xí)慣了去商店購物的消費(fèi)者不會愿意購買不能親眼看到或觸

摸到的東西，即不愿在網(wǎng)上購物，但是，對越來越多的時(shí)間不充裕的(time-

starved)消費(fèi)者來說，通過家用電腦購物比開車去商店購物多了一個(gè)更方便的途

徑。文章第二段乂提到一項(xiàng)調(diào)查內(nèi)容。該調(diào)查顯示，1998年，美國人的網(wǎng)上交易

額達(dá)到了73億美元，是1997年的兩倍。網(wǎng)上拍賣活動和網(wǎng)址的增加，使消費(fèi)者可

以通過比較買到自己最禰心的東西，因此更容易成交。因此，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是

D”越來越多的消費(fèi)者喜歡在網(wǎng)上購物了”。A“消費(fèi)者不愿意在因特網(wǎng)上購物”；

B“消費(fèi)者太忙，沒時(shí)間在因特網(wǎng)上購物”；C“網(wǎng)上零售業(yè)務(wù)是有利可圖的買賣工

根據(jù)第三段第一句，盡管消費(fèi)者對網(wǎng)上購物感興趣，網(wǎng)上零售業(yè)目前基本上還是個(gè)

不賺錢的買賣。因此，這三個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是錯(cuò)誤的。

7、FindingabargainontheInternetwasgettingeasierpartlybecause.

A、thereweremoreandmoreInternetusers

thereweremoreandmoreonlineauctions

C、theconsumershadmoremoneytospend

D^thereweremoregoodsavailableontheInternet

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B」

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道具體細(xì)節(jié)題。問在因特網(wǎng)上買到價(jià)廉物美的商品越來越容

易了，部分原因是什么。利用查閱式閱讀法，我們可以在第二段第二句中找到相關(guān)

信息。這句話指出，山于網(wǎng)上拍賣活動和網(wǎng)址的增加，使消費(fèi)者可以通過比較買到

自己最稱心的東西，因此更容易成交。所以，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是B。

8、"Foralltheconsumerinterest1'(Para.3)means.

A、totheinterestofalltheconsumers

B、fortheinterestofalltheconsumers

C、thoughconsumersareverymuchinterested

D^alltheconsumersaremuchinterested

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道句子詞組含義類問題。問第三段中的：Forallthe

consumerinterest的含義是什么。第三段第一句指出，盡管消費(fèi)者對此感興趣，但

是網(wǎng)上零售業(yè)目前基本上還是個(gè)不賺錢的買賣。for對此處表示讓步，意思是“雖

然、盡管”。因此，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是C。A“對所有消費(fèi)者有利（或有益廣；B”為

了所有消費(fèi)者的興趣（或利益）”；D“所有消費(fèi)者對此都非常感興趣:這三個(gè)選項(xiàng)均

是錯(cuò)誤的選項(xiàng)。

9、ItcanbeinferredfromthepassagethatAmazon.com.

A^willprobablymakeaprofitin2001

B、ismakingaprofitnow

C、isacompanythatsellsbooksonly

D^suffersagreatlossonthestockmarket

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道具體細(xì)節(jié)題。問我們可以從文章中推斷出來

Amazon.com公司如何。利用查閱式閱讀法，根據(jù)文章第三段的內(nèi)容，

Amazon.com在1995年開始傳書，后來又增加了銷傳音像制品的業(yè)務(wù)。到今年笫

三季度，它的收入已達(dá)1.537億美元，與1997年司期相比增長了3790萬美元。

但是總的來看，公司的虧損卻由960萬美元增加到4520萬美元。分析人士認(rèn)為，

公司到2001年才可望盈利。但是，盡管目前虧損很大，公司股票的市值卻達(dá)數(shù)十

億美元，表明了投資者對這個(gè)公司的未來很樂觀?？梢姡绢}的正確答案應(yīng)是

A“公司可能會在2001年盈利”。

10、InvestorsarcinterestedinInternetretailingbecause.

A、sellingonlineinvolveslittlerisk

R、Internetretailingisinitsinitialstage

C、itcaneasilyreachmillionsofconsumers

D、theycanmakehugeprofitsfromit

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道具體細(xì)節(jié)題。問投資者對因特網(wǎng)零售業(yè)感興趣的原因是什

么。根據(jù)第四段第一句，投資者對網(wǎng)上零售業(yè)感興趣，是因?yàn)樗峁┝艘粋€(gè)深入到

上百萬的消費(fèi)者之中去的有效手段，這也省去了雇用一大群銷售員去開商店的成

本。因此，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是C“它能很容易地深人到上百萬的消費(fèi)者之中”。

出，人的頭腦也是人體所在做的事情的反映。根據(jù)第三、四、五段，作者闡述了人

們在交流時(shí)，人體各部位的活動所起的作用。因此，全文最佳標(biāo)題是A“人體的整

體交流而B“人體的動作”，C“口頭語言”，D“對話”，這三個(gè)選項(xiàng)都不能概括全

文內(nèi)容，均為錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)。本題的正確答案是A。

12、Whichofthefollowingstatementswouldtheauthoragreewith?

A、Thinkingisasocialphenomenon.

B、Thinkingissolelyabrainfunction.

C、Thinkingisafunctionofthenervoussystem.

D^Thinkingisthesumtotalofbodilyactivity.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道判斷是非題。問作者會贊同以下哪種說法。根據(jù)文章第一

段和第二段，作者認(rèn)為人的思維不僅僅是大腦在起作用，而且需要人體整體的綜合

作用。大腦的作用是接收外界傳來的信號，做出恰當(dāng)?shù)呐袛?，然后將信息傳送到?/p>

目的地（即身體其他各部位）以做出反應(yīng)。因此所謂的頭腦，我們不能說它是一個(gè)具

體的事物，像人腿，甚至人腦，它不是存在于人腦中或是神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)中或某一特殊部

分，它是一種功能，一種活動。正如2300年前亞里士多德所說的，頭腦之于身體

正如砍伐之于斧頭一樣。不用斧頭，也就沒有了砍伐。同樣，沒有身體，也就沒有

頭腦了。查爾斯伍爾伯特說過“頭腦就是身體所在做的事的反映”。因此，本題

的正確答案應(yīng)是D“思維是人體總體活動的總和“。

13、Incommunication,itisessentialnotonlytoemployspeech,butalso.

A^tospeakdirectlytotheotherperson.

B、toemployavarietyofbodilymovements

C、tobecertainthattheotherpersonislistening

D、topaygreatattentiontotheotherperson'sbehavior

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題問在人們進(jìn)行交流時(shí)，不僅要運(yùn)用語言，還要運(yùn)用什么。文章第

五段最后一句指出，人們在談話時(shí)，不僅用口頭語言，實(shí)際上還包括人體的每一塊

肌肉所帶來的可見到的動作。因此，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是B“還要運(yùn)用各種各樣的

身體動作

14、Itcanbeinferredfromthepassagethatthebasicfunctionofbodilyactivityin

A、makethelistenerfeelemotional

B、makethespeakerunderstood

C^strengthenthespeaker'soralwords

D、conveythespeaker'simpliedmeaningtothelistener

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點(diǎn)解析；本題問我們可以從本文中推斷出講話時(shí)身體部位運(yùn)動的主要作用是什

么。根據(jù)文章第三段和第五段的內(nèi)容可知，交流和思維一樣，也是人體全身各部位

綜合作用的結(jié)果。觀察一下人們是如何進(jìn)行平常的談話的，好的談話人幾乎一直不

停地在動，他們不斷點(diǎn)頭、搖頭，有時(shí)動作之大讓你覺得他們的脖子怎么能承受得

了。即便是腿和腳也很活躍，至于手和胳膊更是一刻不停地在動。而這些人并不是

在演講，只是想盡力使別人了解自己所想表達(dá)的東西。因此，人們在談話時(shí)總有些

基本的身體動作，目的是為了加強(qiáng)說話人的言語。所以，本題的正確答案應(yīng)是

C“加強(qiáng)人的口語表達(dá)”。

15^Whichofthefollowingistrue?

A、Thebrainiscomparedtoatelephoneexchange.

B>Themindisanactivityofthenervoussystem.

C、Somepeopleremainstillwhiletalkingtoothers.

D、Manypeoplemovetheirbodiesonpurposewhiletalking.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：本題是一道判斷是非題。針對所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)，利用查閱式閱讀法，

結(jié)合原文內(nèi)容，我們可以根據(jù)文章第一段中指出的，人的大腦就如電話局的交換

臺，從而找到本題的正確答案A。選項(xiàng)B“思維是神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的活動”，C”有些人在與

別人談話時(shí)身體保持靜止不動”，D“許多人在說話時(shí)有意地移動身體”，這幾個(gè)選

項(xiàng)所涉及的內(nèi)容文章中沒有提及，因此都是錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)。
