（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 a next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. and when youre doing your holiday shopping online, make sure youre holding a large glass of iced tea. the physical sensation (感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisionsthose are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist john a. bargh. psychologists have known that one persons perception (感知) of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, bargh argues, when babies conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. classic studies by harry harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. harlows work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills. feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. although no worldwide study has been done, bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries. to test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. a research assistant who was unaware of the studys hypotheses(假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: the drink was then handed back. after that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “person a” based on a particular description. those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded person a as warmer than those who had held the iced drink. “we are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says bargh.56. according to paragraph 1, a persons emotion may be affected by _. a. the visitors to his officeb. the psychology lessons he has c. his physical feeling of coldnessd. the things he has bought online57. the author mentions harlows experiment to show that _. a. adults should develop social skillsb. babies need warm physical contact c. caregivers should be healthy adultsd. monkeys have social relationships58. in barghs experiment, the students were asked to _. a. evaluate someones personalityb. write down their hypotheses c. fill out a personal information formd. hold coffee and cold drink alternatively59. we can infer from the passage that _. a. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences b. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide c. physical temperature affects how we see others d. capable persons are often cold to others60. what would be the best title for the passage? a. drinking for better social relationships.b. experiments of personality evaluation. c. developing better drinking habits.d. physical sensations and emotions.b equipped only with a pair of binoculars (双筒望远镜) and ready to spend long hours waiting in all weathers for a precious glance of a rare bullfinch (红腹灰雀), britains birdwatchers had long been supposed to be lovers of a minority sport. but new figures show bird-watching is fast becoming a popular pastime, withalmost three million of us absorbed in our fluttering feathered friends. devoted birdwatchers, those prepared to travel thousands of miles for sighting of a rare siberian bird, are fast being joined by a new breed of follower whose interest is satiated by watching a few finches (雀科鸣鸟) on a sunday walk or putting up a bird-box in the back garden. “almost three million uk birdwatchers is certainly possible if you include everyone with only a casual interest,” stephen moss said in his newly published book.-a bird in the bush: a social history of birdwatching - which records the pursuit from the rich victorian englishmans love of shooting rare birds to the less offensive observational tendencies of birdwatchers today. television wildlife programmes have helped to fuel the new trend. last summer, bbc 2s britain goes wild was a surprise success. it pulled in three million views and led to bird-houses selling out across the uk as 45,000 people promised to put up a box. birdwatchers networking system first came to the attention of the nation in 1989, when a birdwatcher caught sight of the first vermivora chrysoptera-a golden-winged songbird from north america-to be seen in britain. he put a message out on the network service birdline, and the next day 3,000 birdwatchers proved the full pull of a truly rare bird as they visited the tesco car park in kent, where it had settled. today, birdwatchers can log on to www.birdline.co.uk or have news of the latest sighting texted to their phones. “multimillion-pound spending on binoculars, bird food and boxes point to the increasing numbers of birdwatchers,” said david croack, the editor of bird watching magazine “the number of people involved is so big that they have great potential to influence government decisions affecting the environment.”61. the word “satiated” in paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “_”. a. affected b. sharedc. narrowed d. satisfied62. what happened after the message of seeing a vermivora chrysoptera was put on the network? a. birdwatchers helped the rare bird settle in kent. b. large numbers of birdwatchers went to view the bird. c. many birdwatchers logged on to the website for details. d. birdwatchers showed their determination to protect the rare bird.63. the passage mainly tells us about _ in uk. a. the history of birdwatching.b. a growing passion for birdwatching c. the impact of media on birdwatchingd. birdwatching as a popular expensive sport c a few years ago, paul gerner began to gather a group of architects in las vegas to ask them what it would take to design a public school that used 50 percent less energy, cost much less to build and obviously improved student learning. “i think half of them fell off their chairs,” gerner says. gerner manages school facilities (设施) for clark county, nevada, a district roughly the size of massachusetts. by 2018, 143,000 additional students will enter the already crowded public-education system. gerner needs 73 new schools to house them. four architecture teams have nearly finished designing primary school prototypes (样品); they plan to construct their schools starting in 2009. the district will then assess how well the schools perform, and three winners will copy those designs in 50 to 70 new buildings. green schools are appearing all over, but in clark county, which stands out for its vastness, such aggressive targets are difficult because deign requirements like more natural light for students go against the realities of a desert climate. “one of the biggest challenges is getting the right site orientation (朝向),” mark mcginty, a director at sh architecture, says. his firm recently completed a high school in las vegas. “you have the same building, same set of windows, but if its orientation is incorrect and it faces the sun, it will be really expensive to cool.” surprisingly, the man responsible for one of re most progressive green-design competitions has doubts about ideas of eco-friendly buildings. “i dont believe in the new green religion,” gerner says. “some of the building technologies that you get are impractical. im interested in those that work.” but he wouldnt mind if some green features inspire students. he says he hopes to set up green energy systems that allow them to learn about the process of harvesting wind and solar power. “you never know whats going to start the interest of a child to study math and science,” he says.64. how did the architects react to gerners design requirements?a. they showed strong disbelief.b. they lost balance in excitement. c. they expressed little interest.d. they burst into cheers.65. which order of steps is followed in carrying out the project?a. assessment-prototype-design-construction. b. assessment-design-prototype-construction.c. design-prototype-assessment-construction. d. design-assessment-prototype-construction.66. what dose gerner think of the ideas of green schools?a. they are questionable.b. they are out of date.c. they are advanced.d. they are practical.d four people in england, back in 1953, stared at ph
