carefullyc. crying loudlyd. cheering very loudlybcold weather has a great effect on how our minds and our bodies work. maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word “cold”. for centuries, the bodys blood has been linked closely with the emotions. people who show no human emotions or feelings, for example, are said to be cold-blooded. cold-blooded people act in merciless ways. they may do brutal things to others, and not by accident. for example, a newspaper says the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. the killer murdered someone, not in self-defense. he seemed to kill for no reason, and with no emotion, as if taking someones life meant nothing.cold can affect other parts of the body, the feet, for example. heavy socks can warm your feet, if your feet are really cold. but there is an expressionto get cold feetthat has nothing to do with cold or your feet. the expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. for example, you agree to be president of an organization. but then you learn that all the other officers have resigned. all the work of the organization will be your responsibility. you are likely to get cold feet about being the president when you understand the situation. cold can also affect your shoulder. you give someone the cold shoulder when you refuse to speak to them. you treat them in a distant and cold way. the expression probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face-to-face. you may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you, or to someone who has lied about you to others. a cold fish is not a fish. it is a person. but it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. a cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. out in the cold is an expression often heard. it means not getting something that everybody else got. a person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise, and that he was left out in the cold. and it is not a pleasant place to be. 61. the passage is intended to tell us that _ . a. many english expressions contain the word “cold” b cold weather has a great effect on human bodies c. cold is a word closely linked with human emotions d. the word “cold” has many different meanings in english62. the underlined word “brutal” in paragraph 1 most probably means “_”. a. impolite b. illegal c. extreme d cruel 63. which of the following expressions can best describe a person who is unwilling to offer anything to others? a. cold-blooded. b. to get cold feet. . c. a cold fish. d. a cold shoulder64. you can say tom _ if the teacher gives all the boys except him a pen as a prize. a. is left out in the cold b. is given the cold shoulder c. has got cold feet d. is murdered by a cold-blooded killer65. we can draw a conclusion from the passage that _ . a .all the expressions containing the word “cold” have something to do with cold b all the expressions containing the word “cold” have a negative meaning c. people who show no human emotions or feelings have cold blood d. many parts of the human body can be badly affected by coldcmany parents have learned the hard way that what sounds like open communication is often the very thing that closes a youngsters ears and mouth. one common mistake is the lecture, the long monologue that often starts with “when i was your age.” eighteen-year-old kelly calls lectures “long, one-side discussions in which i dont say much.”kids reflexively（条件反射地） shut down in the face of a lecture. their eyes glaze over, and they dont register any incoming information. listen to 13-year-old sarah describe her least favorite times with her mom and dad. “first, they scream. then comes the were so disappointed speech. then the i never did that to my parents lecture begins. after that, even if they realize how ridiculous they sound, they never take it back.”lines like “when you have children of your own, youll understand” have been seriously said by parents since time immemorial. but many of our expert parents, like bobby, a registered nurse and mother of three, feel that by falling back on clichs（陈词滥调）to justify our actions, we weaken our position.since kids are creatures of here and now, the far-off future has no relevance to them. therefore, good communicators like bobby suggest, “give specific reasons for your actions in present language: im not letting you go to the party because i dont think there will be enough adult supervisions（监护）.”betty, who lives in missiouri, uses an indirect approach. “i find that warnings are accepted more readily if i discuss a news article on a subject i am concerned about. my husband and i talk about it while our children absorb the information. then they never think im preaching(布道).”this really helped when bettys kids began driving. instead of constantly repeating “dont drink; dont speed,” she would talk about articles in the paper and express sympathy for the victims of a car crash. betty made no special effort to draw her kids into the conversation. she depended on a teenagers strong desire to put in his opinions-especially if he thinks he isnt being asked for them. 66. the purpose of the passage is to _. a. compare two ways of parents communicating with their kids b. explain why kids wont listen to their parents c. give parents advice on how to communicate with their kids d. introduce kids reaction to the communication between them and their parents 67. which of the following statements is not right? a. kids wont listen to their parents because they think what their parents say is boring. b. kids dont like any discussion at all. c. some kids think their parents should apologize when they are wrong. d. many kids think they have no right to express their own opinions. 68. what does the underlined word in the first paragraph mean? a.讨论 b.
