(轮到最小的儿子Amos开始上学时，她非常焦虑。Adrian说:“送Amos上学是完全不同的一种方式。他3岁开始上学。他患有自闭症,不爱说话。”)”可知最小的儿子Amos的自闭症问题使Adrian很担心，故选C。【22题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“He started calling Adrians son “Famous Amos” on day one. T

39、o the moms surprise, Amos quickly began responding with a cheerful Hey, Brown” whenever he saw him.( 他第一天就开始叫Adrian的儿子“著名的Amos”。让妈妈吃惊的是，Amos每次见到他都会高兴地回应“嘿，布朗”)”和第三段“But those kids saw that he was popular and loved, and they started fighting over who would get to hold Amos hand on the way to the clas

Make sure that you

43、 do not find yourself looking down or away. If you wear glasses, be sure to buy the nonglare lenses. Do not stare.Rapidly nodding your head can leave the impression that you are impatient and too eager to add something to the conversationif only the interviewer would let you. Slower nodding, on the

44、other hand, emphasizes interest, shows that you are confirming the comments of your interviewer, and encourages him to continue. Leaning the head slightly, when combined with eye contact and a natural smile, shows friendliness and approachability.Your smile is one of the most powerful positive body

45、signals. Everybody looks better when they smile. Offer an unforced, confident smile. Avoid at all costs the technique that some applicants use: grinning like a fool for the length of the interview, no matter what. This will only communicate that you are insincere.Its worth remembering that the mouth

46、 provides a seemingly limitless supply of opportunities to convey weakness. This may be done by touching the mouth frequently; “faking” a cough when confused with a difficult question; chewing ones lips absentmindedly. Displaying any of these “insincerity signs” when you are asked about why you lost

47、 your last job, will confirm or increase suspicion about your honesty.24. Which of the followings may cause your failure in the job interview?A. Nodding the head slowly.B. Natural eye contact.C.

What does the underlined word “suspicion” in the last paragraph mean?A. Understanding.B. Doubt.C. Expression.D. Agreement.【答案】24. C 25. B

49、26. B【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要给参加面试的人提出了一些有关面部表情的建议。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“Avoid at all costs the technique that some applicants use: grinning like a fool for the length of the interview, no matter what. This will only communicate that you are insincere.”（不惜一切代价避免一些应聘者使用的技巧：在面试的整个过程中都像傻瓜一样咧嘴笑，不管发生什么。这只会表明你是不

50、真诚的。）可知，在面试的整个过程中都像傻瓜一样咧嘴笑会表明你是不真诚的，会导致你面试失败。故选C项。【25题详解】主旨大意题。文章第一段介绍了面试时目光接触的注意事项，第二段介绍了面试时点头以及微笑的方式，第三段介绍了面试时应用嘴巴的注意事项，整篇文章介绍了面试时应用面部表情的建议，即面试时的面部信号。故选B项。【26题详解】词句猜测题。根据前边“insincerity signs”（不真诚的迹象）以及“when you are asked about why you lost your last job”（当你被问到为什么失去上一份工作）可推测，对待这样不真诚的行为，面试者会更加肯定“对你的

51、忠诚度”的“怀疑”。故选B项。【点睛】阅读理解之细节理解题的解题方法：首先，读懂题干，带着问题去微观细读；其次，发现细节，放慢速度，仔细核对比较，最后，结合选项确定正确答案。CIf you could travel in time, where would you go?

55、sh theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking says you could travel into the future with a really fast spaceship going at nearly the speed of light.Even if you could travel into the past, there is something called the “grandfather paradox”. It asks what would happen if a time traveler were to go back in

56、time and have his own grandfather killed for some reason, and therefore prevent himself from being born. If the time traveler wasnt born, how would he travel back in time?And would you really like to visit the future? In H. G. Wells book, the main character travels into distant time. He arrives at a

57、 beach where he is attacked by giant crabs. He then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles（触角）.
