【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 the more if you want to learn quickly. And before you consider buying into any method, be sure it is right for you. It is not wise to depend on any method based upon mnemonics(記憶群). The first few words seem very easy to learn, so you buy the course, but then you discover quickly, though too late, that a dozen words later, it is all the more difficult to learn a new word when you have also to learn the trick to memorize it.（1）From the first paragraph, we can infer that ______. A.there is no need to know all the words of a foreign languageB.it is honest to answer no to a question you don39。t knowC.a baby can know all the new words of its mother tongueD.people find it hard to memorize vocabulary of their language（2）To learn a foreign language, the author advises you ______. remember new words appearing every day keep up with new ways of using old words learn at least 2,000 necessary words pay more attention to your bad memory（3）The author39。s attitude to mnemonics is________. （4）The passage is mainly about ______. old words in a new way new words from the context a method to memorize vocabulary vocabulary of a foreign language【答案】 （1）A（2）C（3）C（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，很多學習外語的人都有一個困惑是否要記憶足夠多的單詞，作者的回答是不，文章告訴人們應該掌握多少個基本單詞，且不能為了學習這些必要的單詞而逃避一些工作，以及依靠任何基于助記法的方法都是不明智的。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“To be honest，do you know all the words of your mother tongue？The answer is‘No’．“說實話，你知道你母語的所有單詞嗎?答案是:不?？芍粋€人既然連自己的母語的詞匯都不可能全部認識，那么在學習外語時，也就沒有必要記住所有的詞匯。故選A。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“You need to learn only 2，000 or so basic words to be able to create any phrase you need.”你只需要學習2000個左右的基本單詞就能創(chuàng)造出任何你需要的短語?？芍獮榱藢W習一門外語，作者建議你至少學習2000個必要的單詞。故選C。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“It is not wise to depend on any method based upon mnemonics.”依靠任何基于記憶術(shù)的方法都是不明智的?？芍髡邔τ洃浶g(shù)的態(tài)度是反對的。故選C。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段中的“When it es to learning a foreign language, many people wonder if they will be able to memorize enough vocabulary.”當談到學習一門外語時，許多人想知道他們是否能記住足夠的詞匯。以及文章主要內(nèi)容圍繞學習外語時的詞匯量問題，所以短文主要是關(guān)于學習一門外語的詞匯量。故選D。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，概括歸納，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 Why is it that many people who have suffered a major shock, such as divorce or death of a family member, seem to be weaker against a variety of major and minor illness? One mon idea among psychologists has been that people could deal with suffering more effectively if they were able to understand and accept it. Indeed, many experts stress the value of expressing thoughts and feelings connected with upsetting events. Recently, a team of medical researchers studied the links between describing psychologically painful events and longterm health. In one experiment healthy college students were asked to write about either personally disturbing experiences or ordinary topics over a period of four days. In the months afterwards, students who had chosen to show their inner thoughts and feelings in their writing visited the health center for illness much less often than those who had written about everyday topics. In an experiment that followed, another group of healthy students were given the fourday writing exercises. Some chose to write about highly personal and upsetting experiences (including loneliness, problems with family and friends, and health). When questioned immediately afterwards, they said that they did not feel any better. However, their blood samples(樣本) taken before and after the experiment showed evidence of an improved resistance to illness. The white cells that fight off bacteria and viruses had increased their reaction and sensitivity to these invaders. This trend continued over the following six weeks, when another blood sample was taken. Individuals who showed the best results were those who wrote about topics that they had actively kept from telling others about. The researchers suggested that failure to face up to painful experience can be a form of stress itself, and can increase the possibility of illness. It follows, then, that actively dealing with a major shock makes possible its understanding and acceptance. The answer is not to suffer in silence. It may not always be possible to talk about personal problems, but writing them down will help the body to fight disease in the long run.（1）In the first experiment, the students who wrote about painful events ________. to suffer psychological problems sharing their inner thought and feelings less likely to seek treatment for sickness39。t deal with suffering effectively（2）People who wrote about personal problems in the second experiment ________. more bacteria and viruses in their blood decreased feelings of loneliness an improved white cell reaction better in their writing tasks（3）What does the underlined word invaders refer to? white cells. and viruses. to illness. reaction and sensitivity of the cells.（4）What is the best title of the passage? and Health Thoughts and Feelings and Health Illness and Social Acceptance【答案】 （1）C（2）C（3）B（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，心理學的研究表明，如果人們能夠理解并接受痛苦，人們就能更有效地應對它。許多專家認為將與令人不安的事件有關(guān)的思想和情感表達出來是十分重要的。不能面對痛苦的經(jīng)歷本身就可能是某種形式的壓力，也會增加患病的可能性。所以從長遠來看，不要默默忍受，說出來或者寫出來將有助于身體對抗疾病。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“In the months afterwards, students who had chosen to show their inner thoughts and feelings in their writing visited the health center for illness much less often than those who had written about everyday topics.”可知，在隨后的幾個月里，那些選擇在寫作中表達自己內(nèi)心想法和感受的學生，比那些寫過日常話題的人更少去看病。故選C。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“However, their blood samples(樣本) taken before and after the experiment showed evidence of an improved resistance to illness. The white cells that fight off bacteria and viruses had increased their reaction and sensitivity to these ‘invaders’.”可知，在第二個實驗中寫下了個人問題的人顯示他們的白細胞對細菌和病毒的反應和敏感性增強了。故選C。 （3）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的“The white cells that fight off bacteria and viruses…”可知，白細胞是用來對抗細菌和病毒的，因此these invaders 指的就是細菌和病毒這些“入侵者”。故選B。 （4）考查主旨大意。本文開頭提出觀點，如果人們能夠理解并接受痛苦，人們就能更有效地應對它。然后通過兩個實驗證明，將內(nèi)心的感受通過說或者寫的方式表達出來從長遠看會有助于身體對抗疾病。因此本文關(guān)注的話題是情感經(jīng)歷和健康的關(guān)系問題。選A
