Teachoneselfathomewithdictionaries.【答案】（1）B（2）C（3）D（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，讲述了一名语言教师对语言学习的个人看法。他认为学生们喜欢实惠的速成学习方法在情理之中，但是学英语不像广告中所说的那么轻松，假如没有兴趣，任何人都不可能学好英语或其他任何语言。在交际时我们需要有交谈或倾听的对象。用真实的语言去谈论真实的生活，那一定会受益匪浅。（1）考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“Nodoubtthisistruetoacertainextent,butitisnotveryhelpfultostudents.”可知许多人渴望学好这门语言，相信这些广告中宣传的学习语言能速成，故选B。（2）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“Mostteachingisstillbasedonbehavioristpsychology.Behavioristsarefondofmakingstudentsrepeatphrasesandmakingsentences.”可知现在大量的教学活动还是建立在行为主义心理学的基础之上。行为主义者热衷于让学生复述短语，不断做一些只需更换句中某个词的练习。故选C。（3）考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“Inmypersonalopinion,noonecaneverlearntospeakEnglishoranyotherlanguageunlessheisinterestedinit.”可知作者认为，假如没有兴趣，任何人都不可能学好英语或其他任何语言。故选D。（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“Thereisanotherrelevantpointworthmentioninghere.Weneedotherpeopletotalktoandlistentowhenwecommunicate.Theycanworkwithusandpracticetheunfamiliarformswithusinrealsituations,talkingtoeachotheraboutreallifelanguage.”可知还有一个相关的问题值得一提：在交际时我们需要有交谈或倾听的对象。在学习较生疏的内容时，如果有其他学生和我们在实战中一起学习和练习那些陌生的语言形式，用真实的语言去谈论真实的生活，那一定会受益匪浅。故选B。【点评】本题考点涉及推理判断题型的考查，是一篇教育类阅读，要求考生根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。2．阅读理解

LessTimeonStrengthsandPositiveAspects【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）D（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是说明文。主要讲述通过一些关于日常经验的研究证明，当你因为批评或遭到拒绝而经历负面情绪时，你的身体会产生较高水平的应激激素，它关闭了你的思维，激活冲突和防御的机制。而当你体验到积极的互动时，积极的交流会增加你与他人沟通、合作和信任的能力。但是积极的影响不如消极的影响更持久，它需要三到五个积极的互动才能去掉一个负面互动。这给我们一个启示，在谈话时尽可能多的积极互动，才会调动人的积极性。（1）考查猜测词义题。根据第一段中的内容可知，一些关于日常经验的最好研究是建立在积极和消极互动率的基础上的，这证明了盲目的积极或消极会使其他人感到沮丧或烦恼，或者干脆把不理睬。分析选项的内容可知A项符合题意。（2）考查细节理解题。根据第三段中的中间部分“Whenyouexperiencenegativeemotionsasaresultofcriticismorrejection,forexample,yourbodyproduceshigherlevelsofthestresshormone,whichshutsdownmuchofyourthinkingandactivates（激活）

conflictanddefensemechanisms（机制）.”可知，你经历负面情绪时，你的身体会产生较高水平的应激激素，它关闭了你的思维机制和激活你的防御机制。由此可判断B项是正确的。（3）考查细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Buttheeffectsofapositiveoccurrencearelessdramaticandlastingthantheyareforanegativeone.”可知，积极面事件的影响不如消极的影响更持久。由此判断出D项正确。（4）考查主旨大意题。通读全文可知，一些关于日常经验的研究证明，当你因为批评或遭到拒绝而经历负面情绪时，你的身体会产生较高水平的应激激素，它关闭了你的思维，激活冲突和防御的机制。而当你体验到积极的互动时，积极的交流会增加你与他人沟通、合作和信任的能力。但是积极的影响不如消极的影响更持久，它需要三到五个积极的互动才能去掉一个负面互动。这给我们一个启示，在谈话时尽可能多的积极互动，才会调动人的积极性。分析选项可知B项正确。【点评】科普文客观题的解题方法1.“找”。读完材料，审完题干(题干不可不审清)，可根据题干确定选项的大致范围，开始找与选项相对应的句子，然后再进行合理的想象、推理及判断。有时候选项的语句散见于文章的各处，也一定找准原句。2.“比”。比较时重在关注意思、关注逻辑关系。有时需要统观全篇，不能只盯住一处。3.“判断”。推断时，切不可只凭主观臆断，一定要找到确切的根据，找到合理的解释。7．阅读理解
