In today’s society , language plays a key role in defining gender (性别) by vocabulary, and also their non-verbal (非语言的) vocabulary. Each one of these different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.
Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men; this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely, and more quickly than men. In one study it was found that women spoke for an average of three minutes describing a painting, as opposed to the thirteen-minute average it took men to describe it.
Men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. Men’s body language is much more reserved when talking to women. Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. Men avoid other people’s body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking. All of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom. Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.
Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral. After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”? The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if there’s something there?” would no longer exist.
4. What does the underlined word “this”in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The differences between men’s and women’s languages.
B. The different speed of men’s and women’s speech.
C. The ability of men’s and women’s spoken language.
D. The non-verbal vocabulary of men and women.
5. In what way do men and women differ according to the third paragraph?
A. Speed of understanding.
B. Understanding of speech roles.
C. Politeness of communication.
D. Application of body language.
6. What is the author’s attitude to the differences between men’s and women’s communication?
A. Cautious.
B. Favorable.
C. Ambiguous.
D. Skeptical.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Women , born excellent talkers
B. Men’s and women’s social roles
C. Vocabulary and communication
D. Opposite gender, different language
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. D
【解析】
本文是说明文。讲述的是“相反的性别,不同的语言”。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段第一、二句Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men; 许多不同的研究表明,男人比女人更爱说话。事实证明,女性说话速度比男性快。再根据第二段下文this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely, and more quickly than men. 这是由于女性比男性更容易被打断,而且她们比男性更清楚、更准确、更迅速地说话。由此推知,此处this指的是男人和女人说话的速度不同。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句Men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating, 男人和女人也有一种非常不同的非语言交流方式,故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”?可知,作者对男女之间的沟通差异是赞同的。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段In today’s society , language plays a key role in defining gender (性别) by vocabulary, and also their non-verbal (非语言的) vocabulary. Each one of these different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.和最后一段最后一句The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if there’s something there?” would no longer exist.可知,本文的主题是“相反的性别,不同的语言”。故选D。
【名师点睛】

C
Earlier this month, two rock climbers achieved what many thought impossible: They climbed up the 3,000-foot-high Dawn Wall in Yosemite National Park without specialized equipment. Climbing without this equipment is called “free-climbing.” Until now, no one had free-climbed to the top of the rock face, which is a part of the mountain EI Capitan.
EI Capitan, which means “the captain” or “the chief” in Spanish, has always presented a challenge
to climbers. But the Dawn Wall, on the mountain’s southeast face, is a particularly difficult route to the summit (顶峰). It is a rock formation that is both steep and relatively smooth. This makes free-climbing the rock face seem almost impossible.
About seven years ago, professional climber Tommy Caldwell spotted a possible route up the wall. It took years of planning and preparation, but this month, Caldwell, 36, and his friend Kevin Jorgeson, 30, finally make the climb.
Free climbers do use ropes and other basic safety equipment to catch them if they fall — and Caldwell and Jorgeson fell often. Before starting their climb, they broke down their route into 32 sections. Each section was based on a rope length called a “pitch.” The rope was secured into the rock face to catch the climbers if they fell.
Caldwell and Jorgeson’s goal was to climb the Dawn Wall without returning to the ground. If they fell, they had to start that pitch all over again. The two men started climbing on December 27. They slept in hanging tents, and a team of friends brought them food each day.
The men had spent years rehearsing (排练) the movements it would take to get through each pitch. They made it through the fist half of the climb relatively easily. But halfway up, Jorgeson ran into trouble. In one difficult spot, he fell each time he attempted to climb. After 10 days of trying, Jorgeson finally made it to the next pitch.
Getting through that troublesome pitch gave both climbers renewed energy. They finished the rest of the climb five days later, on January 14.
8. What does Paragraph 2 mainly explain?
A. Why the Dawn Wall is a hard challenge.
B. Why people prefer climbing El Capitan.
C. How to free-climb the Dawn Wall.
D. How El Capitan got its name.
9. To climb Yosemite’s Dawn Wall, Caldwell and Jorgeson ________.
A. received one year’s training
B. chose the nearest route
C. made thoughtful preparations
D. used special equipment
10. What can we learn about this world’s toughest climb?
A. It includes 32 different routes.
B. It is also the world’s highest climb.
C. It was once completed by Caldwell 7 years ago.
D. It took the two climbers 19 days to get to the top.
11. Which of the following words can best describe Jorgeson?
A. Proud but patient.
B. Cautious and friendly.
C. Brave and determined.
D. Imaginative but half-hearted.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. C
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了Jorgeson和Caldwell在没有专业装备的情况下成功攀登the Dawn Wall的故事。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段最后两句It is a rock formation that is both steep and relatively smooth. This makes free-climbing the rock face seem almost impossible.可知,the Dawn Wall的岩石很陡峭也很光滑,这种情况让徒手攀岩变得不可能。本段主要是在说明徒手攀岩这样的一座山峰似乎是不可能的任务。也就是说人们为什么说the Dawn Wall是一个巨大的挑战。故A正确。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段第一句The men had spent years rehearsing (排练) the movements it would take to get through each pitch.可知,他们已经对本次攀登进行了多年的排练。说明他们做了充分的准备工作。故C正确。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句The two men started climbing on December 27. They slept in hanging tents, and a team of friends brought them food each day.和全文最后一句They finished the rest of the climb five days later, on January 14.可知,他们是在12月27日开始攀登的,在1月14日结束。所以一共用了19天的时间。故D正确。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段可知,the Dawn Wall是一个巨大的挑战,但是Jorgeson和
Caldwell却在没有专业装备的情况下攀登成功,这说明他们很勇敢。再根据第六段最后两句But halfway up, Jorgeson ran into trouble. In one difficult spot, he fell each time he attempted to climb. After 10 days of trying, Jorgeson finally made it to the next pitch.可知,他经历了多次失败,但并没有气馁,经过10多天的尝试以后,最后取得成功。说明他意志坚定。故C项正确。
D
Apple and Microsoft each launched new products. One company astonished everyone. The other made people sleepy. Can you guess which was which? You probably guessed wrong. Because Apple, famous for its creative products, was the tech giant whose new product caused a collective shrug. While Microsoft, which stole a move out of the Apple Playbook, won cheers from high-end, creative-class consumers like business analysts, media designers and music producers.
As Hayley Tsukayama remarked at The Washington Post, the Surface Studio, one of Microsoft's new products, is really just a super-sized version of the Surface Books product that Microsoft has been selling for years. But if you've ever watched science fiction movies like Minority Report-- where Tom Cruise seems to operate pictures and data hanging on mid-air by touching them, spreading his fingers to increase on details, and sending files and information sliding from one folder to another with a click of the finger, you can see how Microsoft is trying to show the same experience.
Meanwhile, apple's new products were almost like some fine promotions for its Apple TV. They boast that the new Macbook Pro has a smaller size and more functions, and a new touch screen bar on laptop keyboards where function keys used to be.
So what's going on? In many ways, Apple is focusing on attracting the average consumers who have been attracted by Microsoft. And Microsoft is focusing on targeting the high-end professionals Apple has historically been associated with. You can even see this is the companies' ad campaigns: Microsoft's ads stress imagination and creativity, while Apple’s commercial chief performance and convenience of its Macbooks.
So Apple is trying to control the world of devices and laptops from the top down, starting with the high-end market and moving on to appeal to a broader base of consumers. Microsoft, having already strengthened itself within the bigger low-end market, is now attempting the opposite with a bottom-up strategy. Will they succeed? Time will tell...
12. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Apple's products aim at high-end consumers.
B. Microsoft's new products made a big hit.
C. Apple and Microsoft developed the same products.
D. The design of Microsoft's products is original and unique.
13. Why does the author mention the science fiction movie in Paragraph 2?
A. To show Microsoft’s new products are inspired by the movie.
B. To tell us Microsoft's new products can be used in movies.
C. To encourage more people to see the science fiction movie.
D. To show how trendy Microsoft’s new products are.
14. What does the underlined word “boast” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. to complain B. to inform
C. to announce D. to brag
15. In which section of a newspaper can we most probably read this passage?
A. Economics and Business. B. Leisure and Entertainment.
C. Culture and Education. D. Life and Fashion.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了苹果和微软两家公司不同的经营模式,以及各自商品的所侧重的不同方面。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段“While Microsoft, which stole a move out of the Apple Playbook, won cheers from high-end, creative-class consumers like business analysts, media designers and music producers.”可知,从苹果playbook中抢先一步的微软则赢得了高端创意阶层消费者的喝彩,比如商业分析师、媒体设计师和音乐制作人。所以我们能从第一段中学到微软的新产品大受欢迎。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由第二段“. But if you've ever watched science fiction movies like Minority Report-- where Tom Cruise seems to operate pictures and data hanging on mid-air by touching them, spreading his fingers to increase on details, and sending files and information sliding from one
folder to another with a click of the finger, you can see how Microsoft is trying to show the same experience”可知,但是,如果你看过像《少数派报告》这样的科幻电影,汤姆克鲁斯似乎通过触摸来操作悬挂在半空中的图片和数据,展开手指以增加细节,并通过手指的点击将文件和信息从一个文件夹滑到另一个文件夹,你可以看到微软是如何展示出它的产品的。所以通过这部科幻电影所展示出的高科技的情节,可以判断出作者第二段提到科幻电影是为了展示微软的新产品有多时髦。故选D项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。由第三段“Meanwhile, apple's new products were almost like some fine promotions for its Apple TV. They boast that the new Macbook Pro has a smaller size and more functions, and a new touch screen bar on laptop keyboards where function keys used to be.”可知,与此同时,苹果新产品的发布几乎就像是苹果电视的一些出色的促销活动。他们夸口说,新的Macbook Pro有更小的尺寸和更多的功能,一个新的触摸屏替代了笔记本电脑的功能键。所以通过上下文的语境可以判断出,第3段中加下划线的“boast”可能是brag“自夸”的意思。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,短文介绍了苹果和微软两家公司不同的经营模式,以及各自商品的所侧重的不同方面。所以这是一篇关于经济和商业的短文。故判断出我们最有可能在报纸经济和商业这一版面读到这篇短文。故选A项。
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。
Common public speaking problems
The use of "I feel", "I think" and "maybe"
In the question-and-answer session of the speaking competition, many contestants began their answers with uncertain expressions like "I feel", "I guess", "I hear", "maybe" and "perhaps".
These words show that the person is only speaking from his or her point of view.___16___
Work on keeping your answers brief and to the point, ___17___. Instead of the
empty-sounding "I guess", using facts, together with a clear conclusion based on those facts, is far more likely to be popular with an audience.
Using only one speaking style
Don't stick to the same tone.___18___
For example, when they spoke about their dreams, some sounded romantic. Others used humor. Very few used several different styles together. Try mixing more than one style, rather than just sticking with the same one.
Irresponsible answers
Public speaking is different from personal conversations. You're responsible for your words. ___19___So you should think twice before you talk. Don't be like the student who, when asked about his opinion on book piracy(盗版), started by saying he supported it.
Talking around the topic rather than directly answering it
You should focus on one point and give a clear solution. The key is to work out what question is being asked. Is it asking you to discuss a certain topic or to present your own point of view?
Use one or two arguments together and give a strong conclusion.___20___
A. It can be boring. Try to mix it up.
B. Even though you want to answer quickly, you don't want to sound foolish.
C. Also work on delivering them with calmness and confidence.
D. Deliberate gestures and affected(做作的)expressions of feelings are improper in a successful speech.
E. Remember that judges are not judging you on whether they agree, but on your ability to say what you think clearly.
F. This lacks the support of facts and seems not to be reliable for the judges and audience.
G. Confidence is extremely important in public speaking as it lets a speaker sound more convincing.
【答案】16. F 17. C
18. A 19. B
20. E
【解析】
本文提出了公共演讲中常见的问题,并且针对这些问题,提出了一些建议与小技巧,帮助人们克服在演讲中出现的问题。
【16题详解】
根据“These words show that the person is only speaking from his or her point of view.___1___”,这种表达仅仅显示出他自己的观点,因此没有理论支撑。故选F。
【17题详解】
“Work on keeping your answers brief and to the point,___2___”,由逗号可知,前后两句构成一个完整的句子,因此后半句应与前句呈现并列的关系。故选C。
【18题详解】
根据后文“Very few used several different styles together. Try mixing more than one style, rather than just sticking with the same one”可知,本段主要讲述“Don't stick to the same tone.___3___”,不要老是使用同样的风格,要学会混合多种风格。故选A。
【19题详解】
根据“You’re responsible for your words”以及后文“So you should think twice before you talk”,演讲时要对自己的行为负责,要慎重考虑。故选B。
【20题详解】
根据“Use one or two arguments together and give a strong conclusion.___5___”,可知,本段主要介绍演讲结束后的总结,应该选择与最后所作总结相关的内容。故选E。

【解析】
分析】
这是一篇新闻报道。本文主要报道了Mrs.Roundy对中国广场舞的感受,Mrs.Roundy过去跳芭蕾舞,不习惯中国的广场舞,罗迪现在已经拥有了足够的信心在队伍中间跳舞,而她有时还会展示自己的美国舞步。除了舞蹈之外,她和丈夫也一直积极参与社区生活、教英语、帮助年老的邻居。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。teacher为可数名词,在此处表示泛指,且U.S首字母的发音为辅音音素,所以用不定冠词a来修饰teacher。表示“一名美国退休教师”故填a 。
【42题详解】
考查副词。currently为副词修饰动词teaching故填 currently。
【43题详解】
考查介词。dance to the tunes of Chinese songs“在中文歌曲的伴奏下跳舞” to为介词是“伴随着”的意思。故填to。
【44题详解】
考查一般过去时的被动语态。分析句子可知,本句为一般过去时,主语she与谓语invite为被动,所以用一般现在时的被动语态。故填was invited。
【45题详解】
考查动名词。by 为介词后接动名词作宾语。故填exchanging。
【46题详解】
考查从属连词。分析句意可知,尽管对她来说语言并不是最困难的事情,但掌握中国的舞蹈才是最难的。所以本句为While/Although/Though引导的让步状语从句。故填While/Although/Though。
【47题详解】
考查名词的复数。分析句子可知,宾语从句的谓语为“dance”,所以主语为dancers,且dancer为可数名词。故填dancers。
【48题详解】
考查形容词。分析句子可知,本句为主系表结构,主语为it,所以表语为confusing,以后缀 -ing 结尾的形容词主要用于说明事物,表示事物的性质或特征。故填confusing。
【49题详解】
考查形容词。分析句子可知,定语从句为主系表结构。分析句意可知,Roundy夫人说他们还一起出去吃饭和实地考察,这对她来说是难忘的经历。所以空处应填forgettable的反义词unforgettable。故填unforgettable。
【50题详解】
考查动词不定式。分析句子可知,本句为动词不定式作后置定语。故填to understand。
【点睛】关于-ing形容词与-ed形容词的区别,比较准确的表述应该是:
1. 以后缀 –ed结尾的形容词(如ashamed, delighted, excited, frightened, interested, moved,
pleased, surprised, worried等)通常用于说明人,不用于说明事物,即使它们所修饰的名词是事物,那它们指的也是与该事物相关的人。
2. 以后缀 -ing 结尾的形容词(如delighting, exciting, frightening, interesting, moving, surprising, worrying 等)主要用于说明事物,表示事物的性质或特征,若用它们说明人,则表示此人具有此性质或特征。
分析小题8可知,本句为主系表结构,主语为it,所以表语为confusing,以后缀 -ing 结尾的形容词主要用于说明事物,表示事物的性质或特征。故填confusing。

Train travel is quite a different experience today. Little things can match China’s high-speed rail system, especially the speed at that it is still developing. The speed known as “China speed.”
China speed means a lot of to the country. The past 30 years had seen China’s rapid development in various areas, like economy and technology. We have seen dozens of tall building spring up almost overnight, with roads and highways reached every corner. Besides, mobile payments and online shopping are playing increasing important roles in everyone’s life. With so great achievements, China speed is now a model admired by a whole world.
【答案】
【解析】
【分析】
本文为应用文。火车旅行在今天是非常不同的体验。很少有东西能与中国的高铁相匹配,尤其是它仍在发展的车速。这种速度被称为“中国速度”。中国速度对国家意味着很多。近30年来,中国在经济、科技等各个领域迅速发展。有如此成就的中国,已成为全世界羡慕的典范。
【详解】1. 考查形容词辨析。分析句子可知,本句中的things是可数名词的复数。而little只能修饰不可数名词,few修饰可数名词的复数形式,故把Little改为Few 。
2. 考查定语从句。句意:很少有东西能与中国的高铁相比,尤其是它正在发展的车速。分析句子few things can match China’s high-speed rail system, especially the speed at that it is still developing.可知,the speed被定语从句修饰,the speed在定语从句中作介词at的宾语。定语从句中把介词at提到了关系词前,前面有介词,关系词不能用that,这里指物,故只能用which。故把that改为which。
3. 考查谓语动词。分析最后一句可知,本句中缺少谓语动词。根据语境可知,本句指的是:这种速度以“中国速度”而出名。句子的主语是the speed,是单数,故在known前添加is。
4. 考查固定用语。句意:中国速度对国家意义重大。a lot of
后面要跟宾语,而在本文中没有宾语,意为“许多”,所以要把of去掉。故删除a lot of中的of。
5. 考查时态。句意:过去的30年来,中国在各个领域迅速发展。分析句子可知,本句是拟人的说话。根据句中the past 30 yeas,可知要用现在完成时,而不是过去完成时,故把had改为has。
6. 考查名词的复数形式。句中的tall building被 dozens of(很多,几十),修饰,要用复数形式,故把building改为buildings。
7. 考查with的复合结构。句意:我们已经看到了几十座高层建筑几乎一夜之间拔地而起,公路和高速公路到达每一个角落。分析句子with roads and highways reached every corner可知,本句中的介词with+宾语(roads and highways)+宾被(reached every corner),而宾语roads and highways 与动词reach二者是主动关系,公路和高速公路可到达每一个角落,所以要用动词的ing形式,故把句中的reached改为reaching。
8. 考查副词作状语。句意:此外,移动支付和网上购物在每个人的生活中扮演着越来越重要的角色。分析句子可知,本句的形容词increasing在句中修饰形容词important,修饰形容词要用副词形式,故把increasing改为increasingly 。
9. 考查固定用法。在英语中“such+形容词+可数名词的复数”,只有当形容词是many或是few时,才能用so来修饰,故本句不能用so,所以把so改为such。
10. 考查固定用法。句意:中国速度如此之快,已成为全世界羡慕的典范。英语表达中,常用the world来表示“世界”,故把a改为the。
【点睛】so和such区别
1. so副词,意思是“如此、这样”,后面常接形容词或副词;such形容词,意思是“如此、这样”,修饰名词,即可接可数名词,也可以接不可数名词。such a/ an +形容词+单数可数名词;so +形容词+a/an+单数名词。例如:
It’s such a fine day=It’s so fine a day. 天气这么好。
2. such除了修饰单数可数名词外,还可以修饰复数名词和不可数名词。后面接复数名词或不可数名词时,只能用such,而不能用so。
such beautiful flowers这么美丽的花
如果复数名词前有few,many等形容词;不可数名词前有little,much等形容词,就必须用so,而不能用such。如:
So many books 这么多的书 so few people 这么少的人
so much money 那么多的钱 so little milk 那么少的牛奶
Don’t make so much noise! 别那么大声嚷嚷
