street, and by the time id biked up to her doorstep, thered be a cold drink waiting. id sit and drink while she talked.mrs. stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, “mr. stanley and i went shopping this morning,” shed say. the first time she said that, soda (汽水) went up my nose.i told my father how mrs. stanley talked as if mr. stanley were still alive. dad said she was probably lonely, and that i ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe shedwork it out of her system. so thats what i did, and it turned out dad was right. after a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery (墓地).i finally quit delivering newspapers and didnt see mrs. stanley for several years. then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser (募捐活动). she was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy. four years before, shed had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with. now she had friends. her husband was gone, but life went on.i live in the city now, and my paperboy is a lady named edna with three kids. she asks me how im doing. when i dont say “fine,” she sticks around to hear my problems. shes lived in the city most of her life, but she knows about community. community isnt so much a place as it is a state of mind. you find it whenever people ask how youre doing because they care, and not because theyre getting paid to do so. sometimes its good to just smile, nod your head and listen. 21. why did soda go up the authors nose one time?a. he was talking fast. b. he was shocked.c. he was in a hurry. d. he was absent-minded.22. why did the author sit and listen to mrs. stanley according to paragraph 3?a. he enjoyed the drink. b. he wanted to be helpful.c. he took the chance to rest. d. he tried to please his dad.23. which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “work it out of her system”?a. recover from her sadness b. move out of the neighborhoodc. turn to her old friends d. speak out about her past24. what does the author think people in a community should do?a. open up to others. b. depend on each other.c. pay for others help. d. care about one another.bits surprising how much simple movement of the body can affect the way we think. using expansive gestures with open arms makes us feel more powerful, crossing your arms makes you more determined and lying down can bring more insights (领悟).so if moving the body can have these effects, what about the clothes we wear? were all well aware of how dressing up in different ways can make us feel more attractive, sporty or professional, depending on the clothes we wear, but can the clothes actually change cognitive (认知) performance or is it just a feeling?adam and galinsky tested the effect of simply wearing a white lab coat on peoples powers of attention. the idea is that white coats are associated with scientists, who are in turn thought to have close attention to detail.what they found was that people wearing white coats performed better than those who werent. indeed, they made only half as many errors as those wearing their own clothes on the stroop test (one way of measuring attention). the researchers call the effect “enclothed cognition,” suggesting that all manner of different clothes probably affect our cognition in many different ways.this opens the way for all sorts of clothes-based experiments. is the writer who wears a fedora more creative? is the psychologist wearing little round glasses and smoking a cigar more insightful? does a chefs hat make the restaurant food taste better?from now on i will only be editing articles for psyblog while wearing a white coat to help keep the typing error count low. hopefully you will be doing your part by reading psyblog in a cap and gown (学位服).25. what is the main idea of the text?a. body movements change the way people think.b. how people dress has an influence on their feelings.c. what people wear can affect their cognitive performance.d. people doing different jobs should wear different clothes.26. adam and galinskys experiment tested the effect of clothes on their wearers _.a. insights b. movements c. attention d. appearance27. how does the author sound in the last paragraph?a. academic. b. humorous. c. formal. d. hopeful.cthree boys and a dadbrad closed the door slowly as sue left home to visit her mother. expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite tv talk show on his first day off in months. “this will be like a walk in the park,” hed told his wife. “ill look after the kids, and you can go visit your mom.”things started well, but just after eight oclock, his three little “good kids” - mike, randy, and alex - came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.” when food had not appeared within thirty seconds, randy began using his spoon on alexs head as if it were a drum. alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat (节拍). mike chanted “wheres my toast, wheres my toast” in the background. brad realised his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.life became worse after breakfast. mike wore randys underwear on his head. randy locked himself in the bathroom, while alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes.someone named “not me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. brad knew the talk show had already started.by ten oclock, things were out of control. alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils. randy, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room, but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands.brad realised that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.at exactly 11:17, brad called the daycare centre (日托所). “i suddenly have to go into work and my wifes away. can i bring the boys over in a few minutes?” the answer was obviously “yes” because brad was smiling.28. when his wife left home, brad

may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. you do not need to be strong. but you need to be quick. and you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.first, you must ask yourself, “where is the wind coming from? is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” you must think about this all the time on the boat. the wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.lets start with the wind blowing from behind. this means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. it should be at a 90 angle to the boat. then it will catch the wind best.if the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. in this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. it should be at a 45 angle to the boat. it needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldnt flap (摆动). it shouldnt look like a flag on a flagpole. if it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.sailing into the wind is not possible. if you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. you may want to go in that direction. it is possible, but you cant go in a straight line. you must go first in one direction and then in another. this is called tacking. when you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.32. what should you consider first while sailing?a. sailors strength. b. wave levels. c. wind directions. d. size of sails.33. what does the word “it” underlined in paragraph 4 refer to?a. the boat.b. the wind. c. the sail. d. the angle.34. what do you have to do when sailing against the wind?a. move in a straight line. b. allow the sail to flap. c. lower the sail. d. tack the boat.35. where can you probably find the text?a. in a popular magazine. b. in a tourist guidebook.c. in a physics textbook. d. in an official report.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 how to remember what you readreading is
