(yī)學(xué)雜志》報(bào)道說,許多兒童成為寵物狗攻擊的受害者的一個(gè)原因是他們與寵物長時(shí)間的眼神接觸,這使寵物狗感到受到威脅,開始防御可知,下文告訴我們兒童與寵物長時(shí)間的眼神接觸使寵物狗感到受到威脅,并攻擊兒童)”,F項(xiàng)”即使在人類和非人類之間,持續(xù)的目光接觸有時(shí)也是不可取的”能夠引起下文,下文正是人類和非人類之間,持續(xù)的目光接觸所帶來的危害。故選F。④根據(jù)上文"Inthecaseofpeoplewhotrytolietosomeone,theymaydistort(扭曲)theireyecontactsothatthey'renotavoidingit.(如果有人試圖對某人撒謊,他們可能會(huì)扭曲他們的眼神接觸,以便他們不會(huì)避免眼神接觸)”可知,上文告訴我們有人試圖撒謊時(shí),會(huì)通過扭曲他們的眼神接觸來掩飾心虛,A項(xiàng)”這是一個(gè)被廣泛認(rèn)可的說謊標(biāo)志”是對上文內(nèi)容的總結(jié),扭曲眼神接觸是一個(gè)被廣泛認(rèn)可的說謊標(biāo)志。故選A。⑤根據(jù)下文"whenthisenergycouldbespentondeepthinking.(當(dāng)這些精力可以用于深入思考時(shí))”可知,文章結(jié)尾進(jìn)行總結(jié),告訴我們眼神交流需要進(jìn)行練習(xí),進(jìn)行深入思考,G項(xiàng)”眼神交流作為一種社交手段,需要付出驚人的努力才能保持"能夠引起下文,眼神交流作為一種社交手段,需要付出驚人的努力才能保持,我們需要花費(fèi)精力用于深入思考。故選Go第二部分語言知識運(yùn)用12第一節(jié)答案:1-5ACBCD6-10DDABC11-15DDAAC解析:1.根據(jù)上一句Livinginaforeignculturecanbeexciting.和But以及后文列舉的一些體現(xiàn)文化差異的例子可知,此處表示住在異國他鄉(xiāng)可能是令人興奮的,但也可能是令人困惑的。故選A。.根據(jù)AgroupofAmericanswhotaughtEnglishinothercountriesrecentlydiscussedtheir.和下文的例子可知,此處是說一群在其他國家教英語的美國人最近討論了他們的經(jīng)歷。故選C。.根據(jù)空前的misoommunicationswerealways以及后文列舉的一些體現(xiàn)文化差異的例子可知,此處是說在其他國家教英語的美國人發(fā)現(xiàn)交流不順暢的事情總是有可能發(fā)生的。故選B。.根據(jù)語境,即使是在像表達(dá)“是”和“不是”這樣簡單的事情上,交流不順暢總是有可能發(fā)生的。故選C。.根據(jù)下文的Thewomantheredidn'tsayanything.可知,莉薩認(rèn)為商店里的人們無視她的請求。故選D。.根據(jù)空后的sheneededacolddrink可知,當(dāng)時(shí)的天氣是很熱的。故選D。.根據(jù)下文Stillthewomansaidnothing.可知莉薩重復(fù)了一次問題,店員還是沒有理她。故選D。.根據(jù)語境可知,此處表示她后來得知那位女士是通過揚(yáng)了揚(yáng)眉毛回答了她的請求,故選Ao.根據(jù)語境,莉薩的經(jīng)歷使簡想起了她在保加利亞的一次經(jīng)歷。remindsbofsth意為”使某人想起某事”,故選B。.根據(jù)空后的namedstuffedcabbage可知,她去了一家餐館,這家餐館以一種名為"塞餡卷心菜”的菜而聞名。故選C。.根據(jù)下文的Janeagerlywaited和anod可知,服務(wù)員點(diǎn)了點(diǎn)頭,因此簡誤以為有這道菜,因此急切地等待著,故選D。.根據(jù)上下文可知,此處表示湯姆有相似的經(jīng)歷。similar表示“相似的"。故選D。.根據(jù)下文的soheexplainedagain可知,湯姆在課堂_L解釋了一些內(nèi)容之后,他問學(xué)生們是否理解了。故選A。.根據(jù)語境,他很快意識到他的學(xué)生們確實(shí)都聽懂了。故選Ao13.根據(jù)上文的InIndia,peoplenodandshaketheirheadsindifferentwaysaccordingtowheretheycomefrom.可知,你必須弄明一個(gè)人來自哪里,才能弄清楚他們想表達(dá)的是"是"還是"不是"。readout意為"讀出";letout意為"放出;泄露";figureout意為"解決;弄明白";pointout意為"指出"。故選C。第二節(jié)答案:①a②at(3)moreeffective(4)tocommunicate⑤making?confidence⑦which?frequently?choice?learning解析:①考查冠詞。句意:學(xué)習(xí)外語是一項(xiàng)很有挑戰(zhàn)的任務(wù),但同時(shí)也是一次非常愉快的經(jīng)歷。此處泛指"一次非常愉快的經(jīng)歷”,應(yīng)用不定冠詞,very是以輔音音素開頭的單詞,應(yīng)用a。故填a。②考查介詞。句意:首先,按照自己的節(jié)奏工作。短語atone'sownpace意為"以自己的速度”,固定搭配。故填at。③考查形容詞比較級。句意:你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)學(xué)習(xí)半小時(shí)比一次試圖學(xué)習(xí)整個(gè)單元更有效。結(jié)合句意和"ratherthantrytodoawholeunitatonce"可知,此處表示比較,應(yīng)用形容詞比較級。故填moreeffective。④考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意:第二,用語言進(jìn)行交流。結(jié)合句意此處表示使用語言的目的,做目的狀語應(yīng)用不定式。故填tocommunicatee⑤考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意:不要害怕犯錯(cuò)。依據(jù)空前短語beafraidof可知此處應(yīng)填動(dòng)名詞形式,在句中作beafraidof的賓語。故填making。⑥考查名詞。句意:重要的是要在談話中樹立自己的自信。根據(jù)空格前的動(dòng)詞短語buildup及形容詞性物主代詞your可知應(yīng)填名詞形式,作賓語。故填confidence。⑦考查定語從句。句意:你應(yīng)該通過話題或句子來學(xué)習(xí)詞匯,這是非常有效的。此處為非限制性定語從句,從句缺少主語,先行詞為前面整句話的內(nèi)容,應(yīng)用關(guān)系代詞whicho故填whicho⑧考查副詞。句意:盡可能多地聽課程錄音是個(gè)不錯(cuò)的選擇??崭袂昂蟮腶s...aspossible可知空格處要填形容詞或者副詞的原級;分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)及句意可知此處應(yīng)填副詞形式,修飾動(dòng)詞listentoo故填frequentlyo⑨考查名詞。句意:盡可能多地聽課程錄音是個(gè)不錯(cuò)的選擇。此處表示“一個(gè)不錯(cuò)的選擇”,應(yīng)填名詞形式做表語。故填choice。⑩考查非謂語動(dòng)詞和固定搭配。句意:最重要的是享受學(xué)習(xí)語言的樂趣。動(dòng)詞短語14havefun(in)doingsth.意為”在做某事方面有樂趣”,固定搭配。故填learning□第三部分寫作第一節(jié)答案:DearLiLin,YouaskedmeabouthowtoimproveyourEnglish.Herearemysuggestions.Firstofall,youshouldbeawareoftheimportanceofreadingabilityandthendoasmuchaspossible.Whilecomingacrosssomeunfamiliarwordsinreading,you'dbetternotrefertothedictionaryfrequentlybutguessthemeaningsfromthecontext.Inaddition,youcansurfsomeusefulEnglishforums,whereyoucanhaveachancetogetsomeusefullearningresourcesandexperiencemorerealEnglishculture.Ihopethesesuggestionswillbeofbenefittoyou.Yours,LiHua第二節(jié)答案:Suddenly,aclogrushedoutandranacrosstheroad.nHey,Ranjanstop!"Iyelled,grippinghisshoulders.Ourmindsraced,tryingtothinkofawaytodosomething.Butitwastoolate.Inthetwinklingofaneyelid,hesteppedonthebrakesandthemotorbikescreechedtoahalt.Nosoonerhadweknockedintothepoordogthanwestoppedourmotorbike.Inadaze,Isawthedogsprawlingontheroad,withoutmovingamuscle.Atthesametime,wewerethrowntothegroundheavily,sowasthemostbeautifulmotorbike.Wepickedupthemotorbikeandfoundedourmirrorwasmissing."Whatshallwedo?”Hemuttered.Ishookmyhead,helplessly.Wewalkedslowlyonthewayhome,withourlegstremblingandourheartsbumpingnearlyoutofcheck.Itseemedlikehundredsofyearsbeforeweapproachedhome.Howwewishedwecouldwheeledintotheyardquitely.However,unclehadwaitedforusoutthedoor.Hegazedatthemotorbike,unbelievable.MWearereallysorry,but...nSilencesurroundedus?"It'snothingserious.Butalwaysremembersafetyisalwaysthefirstimportant.nSoashamedwasIthatwecouldfeelthebloodrushtomyface.YES,overconfidencecomesatcost.15.WhichofthefollowingstatementsisTRUE?A.FijianpeoplewillhaveabetterrelationshipwithChina.B.LisaLuwillperformPekingoperainBritain.C.Fijilibrarygaveover6,000bookstoChinaReadingCorner.D.TheChinaNationalPekingOperaCompanywenttoUKforthefirsttime..
