“Itisdifficulttochangeabadfirstimpression,butnotimpossible.Don’ttrytoforcenewrelationships.Letrelationshipsdevelopnaturallyanddon’tdothingsjusttomakepeoplelikeyou.Beyourself.”Huhmanadvises.【语篇概述】本篇为说明文。海飞丝曾警告说,“你永远不会得到第二个机会给人留下第一印象”,新的研究表明这一说法并不完全正确。研究结果表明,一个人只需要有一些不好的行为,就会让人对其印象的认识变得更糟,但需要花费更长的时间,做很多好事,才会让人对其有好的印象。24.WhatdidtheHead&Shouldersadvertisementshow?A.Firstimpressionsarelasting.B.Firstimpressionsarenotreliable.C.Firstimpressionscanworkwonders.D.Firstimpressionsarethemostnatural.【解析】选A。细节理解题。由文章第一段IfyouwatchedTVinthe1980s,youprobablyremembertheHead&Shouldersadvertisementwarning,“Younevergetasecondchancetomakeafirstimpression.”可知海飞丝的广告表明第一印象是持久的,要改变一个人的第一印象非常难。25.Whatarethefindingsofthestudies?A.Peoplearequicktomakejudgements.B.Ittakesmoretimetobecomebad.C.It’shardtochangebadimpressions.D.Peoplealwaysfocusonbadactions.【解析】选C。细节理解题。由第五段中的“Peopleonlyneedtocommitjustafewbadactionstoappeargreatlychangedfortheworse,butneedtocommitmanygoodactionstoappeargreatlychangedforthebetter,”theauthorswrite.可知,新的研究表明,要改变不好的印象很难。26.Whatdoestheunderlinedpart“Flubsomething”inParagraph6referto?A.Showsomething.B.Dosomethingbad.C.Trysomethingnew.D.Keepondoingsomething.【解析】选B。词义猜测题。根据下文andthey’llquicklychangetheirimpressionfortheworse可知,一旦人们做了坏事,搞砸了,人们对他们的印象很快就会变糟。故第6段划线部分Flubsomething指“做坏事”。故选B。27.What’sHuhman’sadvice?A.Betherealyou.B.Makepeoplelikeyou.C.Createagoodimpression.D.Ignorepeople’sjudgements.【解析】选A。细节理解题。从最后一段中的Letrelationshipsdevelopnaturallyanddon’tdothingsjusttomakepeoplelikeyou.Beyourself可知,Huhman的建议是要做真正的你。CTheEnglishlanguageischanging,andyouareresponsible!Whetherweconsiderchangesingrammar,spelling,pronunciation,ortheveryvocabularyofthelanguage,youhaveplayedyourpartandcontinuetodoso.Whenwefirstlearnedbasicgrammarandspelling,perhapsinelementaryschool,wemighthavegottentheimpressionthatthesethingsweresacred.Therulesthatapplytosuchthingsmighthavebeenpresentedasunchangingandunchangeable.Whilethisapproachmightbebeneficialforteachingchildren,itisfarfromaccurate.TheEnglishlanguage,likemanyothers,isaliving,growing,ever-evolvingthing.Likeitornot,youareinvolvedinthischange.Thesechangestakemanyforms.Grammarandspellinghavechangedradicallyovertheyearsandcenturies,withthespellingdifferencesindifferentcountriestodayareflectionofthis.WhilethelanguageofathousandyearsagomightbecalledEnglish,mostofuswouldhardlyrecognizeittodayasthesamelanguage.Thefirstinvolveschangesinthepronunciationofwords.ManyarefamiliarwiththedifferencesbetweentheBritishandAmericanwaysofpronouncingcertainwords.Inadditiontothesedifferences,thepronunciationofmanywordshaschangedovertheyearsbecauseofhowyouhavedecidedtopronouncethem.Forexample,considertheword“err.”Thetraditionalpronunciationofthiswordrhymeswiththeword“her.”However,inrecentyears,moreandmorepeoplehavebeenpronouncingitsothatitsoundslike“air.”Anotherchangeinthelanguageinvolvestheadditionandremovalofwords.ThemakersofdictionariesdecidewhichwordsdeservetobeofficiallyadoptedaspartoftheEnglishlanguage.Throughthecenturies,manywordshavecomefromotherlanguages.Infact,Englishhasprobablydonethismorethananyotherlanguageintheworld,whichiswhyspellingandpronunciationrulesforEnglishhavesomanyexceptions.Ofcoursemanyslangwordshavebeenjustshort-livedfadsthathavediedoutquickly.Others,though,havebeenadoptedbymainstreamsocietyandbecomerespectable,ashavemanytechnicalterms.Sothenremember,thenexttimeyourepeatthenewestexpressiontohitthestreet,ormakeupyourownwords,youmaybecontributingtothefutureoftheEnglishlanguage.【语篇概述】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出,英语这门语言从语法、拼写、发音及词汇都一直在变化。在这个变化过程中,我们每个人都在起着一定作用,并且这种情况还将继续。28.WhenwebegintolearnEnglish,wethink_______.

A.itisinterestingtotakeupanewlanguageB.grammarandspellingrulesareunchangeableC.onlygrown-upshavetheabilitytoaffectalanguageD.Englishrulesarewronglypresentedinfact【解析】选B。细节理解题。从第二段中的Whenwefirstlearnedbasicgrammarandspelling,...Therulesthatapplytosuchthingsmighthavebeenpresentedasunchangingandunchangeable.可知,我们初学英语时往往会认为语法和拼写的规则是不可改变的。29.Thepronunciationofwordsischangingbecause_______.

A.peoplespeakindifferentwaysB.theBritishdon’tagreewithothersC.peopleadoptedforeignwordsD.makersofdictionariescreatedthem【解析】选A。细节理解题。由第四段中的Inadditiontothesedifferences,thepronunciationofmanywordshaschangedovertheyearsbecauseofhowyouhavedecidedtopronouncethem.可知,是人们说话的方式不同导致了单词发音的不断变化。30.WhichofthefollowingstatementsaboutEnglishslangwordsistrue?A.AlltheslangwordshavebecomestandardEnglish.B.Englishslangwordsarepopularforashorttime.C.Someslangwordshavebeenaccepted.D.Englishslangwordshavedifferentmeaningsactually.【解析】选C。细节理解题。由最后一段中的Ofcoursemanyslangwordshavebeenjustshort-livedfadsthathavediedoutquickly.Others,though,havebeenadoptedbymainstreamsocietyandbecomerespectable,ashavemanytechnicalterms.可知,许多俚语存在时间非常短,只是昙花一现。然而,其他的词已经被主流社会所接受。故选C。31.Whichofthefollowingisthemainideaforthepassage?A.YoucanchangetheEnglishlanguage.B.Englishischangingoveryears.C.TheBritishspeakdifferentlyfromAmericans.D.Foreignwordsaredevelopingwithtime.【解析】选A。主旨大意题。文章开头提出英语这门语言一直在变,每个人都要为这样的变化负责。接下来从语法、拼写、发音及词汇几个方面分别说明对语言做出的变化。结合选项可知,选项A.你可以改变英语语言是最佳标题。DSomepessimisticexpertsfeelthattheautomobile(机动车)isboundtofallintodisuse.Theyseeadayinthenot-too-distantfuturewhenallautoswillbeabandoned(放弃)andallowedtorust.Otherauthorities,however,thinktheautoisheretostay.Theyholdthatthecarwillremainaleadingmeansofurbantravelintheforeseeablefuture.Thecarwillundoubtedlychangesignificantlyoverthenext30years.Itshouldbecomesmaller,safer,andmoreeconomical,andshouldnotbepoweredbythegasolineengine.Thecarofthefutureshouldbefarmorepollution-freethanpresenttypes.Regardlessofitspowersource,theautointhefuturewillstillbethemainprobleminurbantrafficjams.Oneproposedsolutiontothisproblemistheautomated(自动化的)highwaysystem.Whentheautoentersthehighwaysystem,aretractable(可伸缩的)armwilldropfromtheautoandmakecontactwitharail,whichissimilartothosepoweringsubwaytrainselectrically.Onceattachedtotherail,thecarwillbecomeelectricallypoweredfromthesystem,andcontrolofthevehiclewillpasstoacentralcomputer.Thecomputerwillthenmonitorallofthecar’smovements.Thedriverwilluseatelephonetodialinstructionsabouthisdestination(目的地)intothesystem.Thecomputerwillcalculatethebestroute,andreservespaceforthecarallthewaytothecorrectexitfromthehighway.Thedriverwillthenbefreetorelaxandwaitforthebuzzerthatwillwarnhimofhiscomingexit.Itisestimated(估计)thatanautomatedhighwaywillbeabletohandle10,000vehiclesperhour,comparedwiththe1,500to2,000vehiclesthatcanbecarriedbyapresent-dayhighway.【语篇概述】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍未来汽车产业的发展前景。32.Onesignificantimprovementinthefuturecarwillprobablybe_______.

A.itspowersource B.itsdrivingsystemC.itsmonitoringsystem D.itsseatingspace【解析】选A。推理判断题。从第二段中的Thecarwillundoubtedlychangesignificantlyoverthenext30years.Itshouldbecomesmaller,safer,andmoreeconomical,andshouldnotbepoweredbythegasolineengine.Thecarofthefutureshouldbefarmorepollution-freethanpresenttypes.可知,本段主要介绍未来汽车的发展方向,其中一项最重要的改进将是能源依赖方面的改变,不再由汽油机提供动力。33.Whatistheauthor’smainconcern?A.Howtomakeautomobilespollution-free.B.Howtomakesmallerandsaferautomobiles.C.Howtosolvetheproblemoftrafficjams.D.Howtodevelopanautomatedsubwaysystem.【解析】选C。细节理解题。从第三段中的Regardlessofitspowersource,theautointhefuturewillstillbethemainprobleminurbantrafficjams.可知,作者最为关心的是如何解决未来汽车给城市带来的交通拥挤问题。34.Whatprovidesautoswithelectricpowerinanautomatedhighwaysystem?A.Arail.
