【正文】 D.Long and unforgettable.【答案】（1）A（2）D（3）B（4）C（5）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文，小時侯玩耍的“樹林”對與作者和朋友們的意義。講述了我們在“樹林”中所從事的活動——探索，以及隨著年齡的增長，不再去那里的經(jīng)歷。（1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“For us tenyearolds, “being out in the woods” was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for a while.”可知，作者和朋友們經(jīng)?！叭淞种小笔菫榱硕冗^他們的休閑時光。故選A。（2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Our explorations, though seemed to have less system than the historic kind something usually came up along the way. ”可知，但是我們的探索與歷史上的相比不夠系統(tǒng)，有些東西通常都是在沿途中偶然出現(xiàn)的，因此推斷作者探索是無目的的。故選D。（3）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的“the topmost branches are usually too skinny to hold weight, and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees.”可知，最高的樹枝通常太細以至于不能承重，所以我們從來不能爬到可以看到除了樹以外的其它事物。因此推斷爬到樹上找出路是“不可信；懷疑的”的，與B項意義相近。故選B。（4）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“There were four or five trees that we visited regularlytall beeches easy to climb and fortable to sit in.”可知，有四五棵樹是我們經(jīng)常去參觀的——它們由高大的樹枝，容易爬上去，坐在上面也很舒服。故選C。 （5）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“ For us tenyearolds, ‘being out in the woods” was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for a while.’”可知，作者和小伙伴們在“樹林”里很快樂；以及最后一段中的“We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to be up in a tree. Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria.”可推斷在不知不覺間作者和小伙伴們都已經(jīng)長大了，時光過的很快。所以作者對童年的感覺應(yīng)該是快樂的，短暫的，但又是難忘的。故選A。【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，要求考生準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 If you want to convince the boss you deserve a pay rise or promotion, the solution could be simple —eat the same food as they do. Psychologists have discovered managers are much more likely to instantly trust us if we choose the same dishes as them. During experiments, discussions over wages and work conditions were much more successful if both sides chose to snack on the same treats. And shoppers were much more likely to buy a product advertised on TV by someone eating a similar food to them at the time. The reason is thought to be so called similarity attraction theorywhere people tend to like others who have similar tastes or habits to themselves. But this is believed to be one of the first studies highlighting the role of food in this relationship. Researchers at Chicago University in the US conducted a series of experiments to examine food39。s role in earning trust. In a test, participants were told to watch TV where someone pretending to be a member of the public praised a certain product. The volunteers were given Kit Kat bars to nibble, while the TV people ate either a Kit Kat or grapes as they talked. The results showed viewers were much more likely to express an interest in buying the product if the TV showed the other person eating a Kit Kat too. The researchers added, “Although similarity in food consumption is not a sign of whether two people will get along, we find consumers treat this as such. They feel more trusting of those who consume as they do. It means people can immediately begin to feel friendship and develop a bond, leading to smoother transactions from the start.” Harley Street psychologist Dr Lucy Atcheson said it was already known that wearing similar clothes could instantly create trust. But this was the first report that food had the same effect. She said, “This is really interesting. It makes sense as people feel they have mon ground and can trust the other person. That means negotiations are more likely to be successful.”（1）According to the passage, customers are likely to buy a product from a dealer who .
