We do know that they were changed and added to over a 1,000 year period or 。根據(jù)第二段的We do know that they were changed and added to over a 1,000 year period or so. 可知我們知道在過去的1000多年它們被改變過,被擴建過,即現(xiàn)在的寺廟不再是它們以前的樣子了。題干What are we aware of about the construction of the temples? 文章內(nèi)容We do know that they were changed and added to over a 1,000 year period or sochanged and added to over a 1,000 year period or so.? D 選項They are not what they used to 。(3)推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段可知,去那兒可以開車很容易。如果不介意走一會的話,你可以乘公共汽車到Qrendi(3公里)或Zurrieq(5公里),然后從那里步行。當(dāng)然,盡管路途不遠(yuǎn),在馬爾他陽光下行走數(shù)公里可能非常困難,也可能是危險的。要喝水和涂防曬霜。分析開車直接去幾乎不用曬太陽,故B正確 。選項A、D都要走路,會曬傷,文中說要多喝水,而非帶水就不會曬傷,C錯誤。因此B符合題合題意。(4)推理判斷題。本文主要對了馬耳他群島的風(fēng)景點作了簡單的介紹,所以文章應(yīng)該出出在旅游雜志上。故答案選C。【點評】推理題的解題方法1. 抓住特定信息進行逆向或正向推理。2. 整合全文(段)信息進行推斷。3. 利用語境的褒貶性進行信息推斷。 4. 根據(jù)文章的結(jié)論推斷作者的態(tài)度。5. 根據(jù)上下文的邏輯得出結(jié)論。 6. 結(jié)合已有的知識進行推斷。5.閱讀理解 Some of the best research on daily experience is rooted in rates of positive and negative interactions, which has proved that being blindly positive or negative can cause others to be frustrated or annoyed or to simply tune out. Over the last two decades, scientists have made remarkable predictions simply by watching people interact with one another and then scoring the conversations based on the rate of positive and negative interactions. Researchers have used the findings to predict everything from the likelihood that a couple will divorce to the chances of a work team with high customer satisfaction and productivity levels. More recent research helps explain why these brief exchanges matter so much. When you experience negative emotions as a result of criticism or rejection, for example, your body produces higher levels of the stress hormone, which shuts down much of your thinking and activates (激活) conflict and defense mechanisms (機制). You assume that situations are worse than they actually are. When you experience a positive interaction, it activates a very different response. Positive exchanges increase your body39。s production of oxytocin, a feelgood that increases your ability to municate with, cooperate with and trust others. But the effects of a positive occurrence are less dramatic and lasting than they are for a negative one. We need at least three to five positive interactions to outweigh every one negative exchange. Bad moments simply outweigh good ones. Whether you39。re having a conversation, keep this simple short cut in mind: At least 80 percent of your conversations should be focused on what39。s going right. Workplaces, for example, often see this. During performance reviews, managers routinely spend 80 percent of their time on weaknesses and “areas for improvement”. They spend roughly 20 percent of the time on strengths and positive aspects. Any time you have discussions with a person or group, spend the vast majority of the time talking about what is working, and use the remaining time to address weaknesses. (1)The underlined phrase “tune out” in Paragraph 1 probably means A.stop listeningB.change one39。s mindC.sing aloudD.be crazy(2)What will happen if you experience negative emotions? A.The situations are sure to bee worse.B.Much of your thinking will be prevented.C.You will feel an urge to improve and bee better.D.You39。ll be motivated to resolve conflicts with people.(3)From Paragraph 4, we can learn that A.we need a positive feeling to beat one negative feelingB.positive interactions have greater effects than negative onesC.our conversation should center on what needs improvementD.the effect of negative feelings lasts longer than that of positive ones(4)What is the best title for the passage? A.Harmful NegativesB.More Positive InteractionsC.How to Be a Productive ManagerD.Less Time on Strengths and Positive Aspects【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)D(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是說明文。主要講述通過一些關(guān)于日常經(jīng)驗的研究證明,當(dāng)你因為批評或遭到拒絕而經(jīng)歷負(fù)面情緒時,你的身體會產(chǎn)生較高水平的應(yīng)激激素,它關(guān)閉了你的思維,激活沖突和防御的機制。而當(dāng)你體驗到積極的互動時,積極的交流會增加你與他人溝通、合作和信任的能力。但是積極的影響不如消極的影響更持久,它需要三到五個積極的互動才能去掉一個負(fù)面互動。這給我們一個啟示,在談話時盡可能多的積極互動,才會調(diào)動人的積極性。(1)考查猜測詞義題。根據(jù)第一段中的內(nèi)容可知,一些關(guān)于日常經(jīng)驗的最好研究是建立在積極和消極互動率的基礎(chǔ)上的,這證明了盲目的積極或消極會使其他人感到沮喪或煩惱,或者干脆把不理睬。分析選項的內(nèi)容可知A項符合題意。(2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的中間部分“When you exper
