D.Isbeinghumorousbeneficial?〖答案〗28.B29.A30.C31.A【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了人们对幽默和基因之间的关系进行了研究。结论是，环境影响在双胞胎发现有趣的方面比遗传因素起着更重要的作用。【28题详析】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Theconclusionwasthatenvironmentalinfluencesplayedamoreimportantroleinwhatthetwinsfoundfunnythangenetics.”（结论是，环境影响在双胞胎发现有趣的方面比遗传因素起着更重要的作用。）可知，关于双胞胎的研究发现了环境对幽默的影响比基因更大。故选B项。【29题详析】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Andeventhoughtheresearchhascollectedevidenceonhowtherecanbeaconnectionbetweenlaughingandsmilingbehaviorsandgenes,westillneedmoresimilarstudiesbeforeconsideringtheresultsasafact.”（尽管这项研究已经收集了大笑和微笑行为与基因之间存在联系的证据，但在将结果视为事实之前，我们仍然需要更多类似的研究。）可推知，从第二段我们能了解到需要更多的研究来证实最近的研究结果。故选A项。【30题详析】细节理解题。根据第四段“Whenwe’reyoung,welearntotalkanddoregularactivitiesbyobservingpeopleandthingsaroundus.Whilegrowingup,youareexposedtojokesthatpeoplearoundyoumakeandfindfunny.Youwillpickupbehavioralsignsanddevelopyoursenseofhumorbasedonallofthat.It’snotasurprisethatyoursenseofhumorisbasedonthesenseofhumorofthepeopleyougrewupwith,ratherthanonthegenesofyourancestors.”（当我们年轻的时候，我们通过观察周围的人和事来学习说话和做有规律的活动。在成长的过程中，你会接触到周围人的笑话，并觉得很有趣。你会发现一些行为迹象，并以此为基础发展你的幽默感。你的幽默感是基于和你一起长大的人的幽默感，而不是基于你祖先的基因，这并不奇怪。）可知，作者可能会同意的是幽默感可以通过观察和跟随他人获得。故选C项。【31题详析】主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Studieshavebeendoneontheconnectionbetweenhumorandgenes.Themostcommononesinvolvedresearchersobservingthesametwinsandlookingathowgenesaffecttheirsenseofhumor.Therewasastudywith390adulttwinswhowereaskedtorate48cartoonsofdifferenthumorvarietiesbasedonhowfunnytheyfoundthem.Theconclusionwasthatenvironmentalinfluencesplayedamoreimportantroleinwhatthetwinsfoundfunnythangenetics.”（人们对幽默和基因之间的关系进行了研究。最常见的是研究人员观察同一批双胞胎，观察基因是如何影响他们的幽默感的。有一项针对390对成年双胞胎的研究，他们被要求对48部不同幽默类型的漫画进行评分，根据他们觉得这些漫画有多有趣。结论是，环境影响在双胞胎发现有趣的方面比遗传因素起着更重要的作用。）可知，文章主要讲的是幽默可能并不是与天俱来的，研究结论表明，环境影响在双胞胎发现有趣的方面比遗传因素起着更重要的作用。故文章最好的标题是“你能天生幽默吗？”。故选A项。DThescholarsatYaleUniversityhavebeencarryingoutastudyofmorethan10,000cadets(学员)attheU.S.MilitaryAcademyatWestPointtodeterminetherelativesuccessofthosewhoweremotivatedbyinternalrewardsversus(与……相对)thosedrivenby“instrumental”,orexternalrewards.Theyassumedthatsomecombinationofinternalandexternalmotiveswouldleadtothemostsuccess,asmeasuredbytheofficers’willingnesstostaybeyondthefive-yearcommitmenttotheArmyandtograduateandbecomecommissionedofficers.Infact,theyfoundthatcadetswhoexpressedthemostinternalmotivationweremoresuccessfulthanthosewhoshowedmixedmotivestoserve.Thesamesubtle(微妙的)interplaybetweenmotivationandrewardsisalsoatworkwhenitcomestoeducationandlearning.Rewardingstudentsforgettingtheirschoolworkdonewithprizes,snacksandevengrades,asmostschoolsdo,canhavetheunintendedeffectofdismantlingachild’sdrivetolearnforitsowngood.“Whenyouholdaburgerinfrontofkids’noses,youaretellingthemwhatkindofconsequencematters,andwhatmotivetopayattentionto,“sayspsychologyprofessorBarrySchwartz.”Andeducationwillsuffer.”RandyWallock,aseventh-gradelanguageartsteacherinNewJersey,encourageslearningforitsowngoodamonghisstudents:They’regivenchoiceandautonomyandthefreedomtoworkattheirownpace.Healsotriestobuildwhathecalls“littlecultureswithintheclassroomtoencouragelearning”;teenagersareresponsivetosocialexpectations,andcreatingenvironmentswherecuriosityiscoolinvitesmoreself-directedlearning.“Asateacher,youhaveachoiceofwhatyourespondto,”saysAmyWrzesniewski,anassociateprofessoratYaleUniversity.“Doyoupayattentiontostudentswhohavetheirlaptopsout,ordoyoupayattentiontostudentswhoareaskingintelligentquestions?”sheasks.Makingthosekidswhoaskintelligentquestionsfeel“valued,respondedtoandcelebrated,”shesays,bringsmoreofthatoutinothers.Schwartzagrees,butwarnsthatsendingoutthesekindsofsignalsmustbedoneslowlyandsubtly.Headds,“Youhavetobecarefulyou’renotmakingthisanotherinstrumentalreward.”32.Whoturnedouttobethemostsuccessful?A.Thosedrivenbyexternalrewards.

D.Heconsidersthemunfairtosomekids.〖答案〗32.B33.D34.A35.C【导语】这是一篇说明文。耶鲁大学的学者们对西点军校的10000多名学员进行了一项研究，以确定那些受到内在回报激励的学员与那些受到“工具性”或外部奖励驱动的学员的相对成功程度，研究认为应激发学生内在的学习动机。【32题详析】细节理解题。根据第二段“Infact,theyfoundthatcadetswhoexpressedthemostinternalmotivationweremoresuccessfulthanthosewhoshowedmixedmotivestoserve.(事实上，他们发现，最能表现出内在动机的学员比表现出两种动机都有的学员更成功)”可知，受内部动机驱动的学员最能成功，故选B项。【33题详析】词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“Rewardingstudentsforgettingtheirschoolworkdonewithprizes,snacksandevengrades,asmostschoolsdo,canhavetheunintendedeffect(像大多数学校一样，用奖品、零食甚至成绩来奖励完成学业的学生，可能会产生意料之外的效果)”以及下文“achild’sdrivetolearnforitsowngood.(孩子为自己而学习的动力)”可知此处上下文说的是通过外部奖励激励学生，会产生意料之外的效果，这说明会导致不好的结果，即破坏孩子学习的内在动机，由此可知，划线单词意为“破坏”，与D项“Ruining(毁坏)”意思一样，故选D项。【34题详析】主旨大意题。根据第五段“RandyWallock,aseventh-gradelanguageartsteacherinNewJersey,encourageslearningforitsowngoodamonghisstudents:They’regivenchoiceandautonomyandthefreedomtoworkattheirownpace.Healsotriestobuildwhathecalls“littlecultureswithintheclassroomtoencouragelearning”;teenagersareresponsivetosocialexpectations,andcreatingenvironmentswherecuriosityiscoolinvitesmoreself-directedlearning.(兰迪·沃洛克是新泽西州的一名七年级语言艺术教师，他鼓励学生们为了自己的利益而学习:他们有选择权、自主权和按照自己的节奏学习的自由。他还试图建立他所谓的“课堂内的小文化来鼓励学习”；青少年对社会期望有反应，创造一个好奇心冷静的环境可以吸引更多的自主学习。)”可知，RandyWallock在第五段强调了激发学生学习动机的方法，故选A项。【35题详析】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Schwartzagrees,butwarnsthatsendingoutthesekindsofsignalsmustbedoneslowlyandsubtly.Headds,“Youhavetobecarefulyou’renotmakingthisanotherinstrumentalreward.”(施瓦茨对此表示赞同，但他警告说，发出这些信号必须缓慢而微妙。他补充道，“你必须小心，不要让这成为另一种工具性的奖励。”)”可推知，对于Wrzesniewski的话，Schwartz表达出了一些担忧，故选C项。第二节（共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。HowtobecomeacreativepersonAnthonyBurrillhasbeenexhibitinghisworkingalleriesacrosstheworldforover15years,findinginspirationinthemostunlikelyplaces.IreadhisbookMakeItNow!todiscoverhowItoocoulddevelopmycreativity.___36___.●LookattheworldthroughfresheyesInordertothinkupnewandexcitingprojects,Burrillletshismindandhisbodywanderintheworld.Awalkinanewneighbourhoodcangiveyouadifferentviewonyoursurroundings.___37___.“Seeingnewthingshelpsgeneratenewideas,”saysBurrill.●BuildyourcreativenetworkWorkingalonecanbebothdifficultandboring.Burrillvalueshiscreativenetworkasasourceofinspiration.___38___.“Thesepeoplewillformthecoreofyourcreativecommunity,fromwhicharichecosystemofcreativitywilldevelop,”saysBurrill.●___39___WhenBurrillbeganhiscareerasanartist,hecouldn'taffordexpensivematerials,sohehadtofindnewandinventivewaystomakethings.“It’smuchbettertousewhatyouhavearoundyoutoproducesomething,”saysBurrill.“It’saboutbeingcleverwithwhatyouhaveandseeingthebenefitsintherestrictionsyouhave.”●Rememberthatconformity(随大流)istheenemyofcreativity___40___.Burrillalwayskeepsinmindthat“assoonasyoustartdoingasyouaretoldandfollowingtherulesyoustopbeingtrulycreative”.Heknowsthatunconventionalpeoplearecleverandinventive,andalwaystryhardtobethe“oddball”amongs
