A.Disorderly surroundings help to create new ideas.D.More virtue exists in organized people.B.D.Bad news has wings.B.Chaos begets chaos.D.terribleB.messy those in the tidy office generally chose the classic version. Disorderly environments seem to inspire breaking free of tradition, Dr. Vohs and her coauthors conclude in the study, which can produce fresh insights. The results were something of a surprise, says Dr. Vohs, the leader of the study. Few previous studies found much virtue in disorder. The broken window theory, proposed decades ago, holds that even slight disorder and neglect can encourage indifference and poor discipline.t necessarily innately conscientious. To find out, researchers at the University of Minnesota conducted a series of experiments. In the first experiment, they randomly assigned a group of collegeage students to spend time in two office spaces, one of which was very neat, the other wildly cluttered (亂堆) with papers and other workrelated stuff. The students spent their time filling out questionnaires unrelated to the study. After 10 minutes, they were told they could leave with an apple or a chocolate bar. Those students who sat in the orderly office were twice as likely to choose the apple as those who sat among the mess. For some time, psychologists have been studying how personality traits affect health and healthrelated choices. Not surprisingly, they have found that people blessed with innate conscientiousness, meaning that they are organized and predictable, typically eat better and live longer than people who are disorderly. They also tend to have immaculate offices. 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測,推理判斷和主旨大意四個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇科研類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。 (4)考查主旨大意??芍?,作者對Michel Andre所做的工作十分認(rèn)可。 (3)考查推理判斷??芍档痛凰俣仁俏闹刑岬降囊环N解決辦法。根據(jù)第五段中的”It39。故選C。根據(jù)第二段中的”the noise of approaching boats and were being struck by them, often seriously“可知,鯨魚被靠近的船只碰撞,因?yàn)樗鼈兛赡苁菍Υ凰a(chǎn)生的噪音比較“遲鈍”。Sea exploration technology.【答案】 (1)C(2)A(3)C(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了海底噪音對海洋生物的影響以及如何降低海底噪音的問題。Animals in the sea.B.A great expert.D.C.B.s attitude towards what Michel Andre has done?

Instead, the temperature, salinity (鹽度) and, flow of water have great effects on their path. Andre has spent 20 years developing an advanced system to better understand why incidents like this happen. His underwater microphones have exposed a world of deafening sound and animal munication never observed with such clarity(清晰) before. Some years ago, MichelAndre found himself staring at the body of a dead whale on a beach in the Canary Islands. It was obvious that the animal had been struck violently by a ship——but why? Only later, after surveying the whales which lived in the area and measuring the increase of sound pollution from ships did it bee clear that there was a link. 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇科研類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。 (4)考查推理判斷。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 (2)考查詞義猜測。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。D.C.B. innocence.(4)What is the general attitude to those who wear glasses for fashion?

A.Proof.Link.Shift.Wearing glasses can make people cleverer.D.People wearing glasses are smarter.B.Glasses are also used to show someone is intelligent in movies and on TV. Ideas about people who wear glasses have begun to shift. People who do not need glasses sometimes wear them for fashion only. They want to look worldly or cool. But not everyone is impressed by this idea, though. GQ magazine said people who wear glasses for fashion are trying too hard to look smart and hip (時(shí)髦的). However, that hasn39。Forget genes though. Plenty of proof shows wearing glasses makes people think you are more intelligent, even if you do not need glasses. A number of studies have found people who wear glasses are seen as smarter, hardworking and honest. Many lawyers use this idea to help win their cases. Lawyer Harvey Solves explained this. Glasses soften their appearance. He said sometimes there has been a huge amount of proof showing that people he was defending broke the law. He had them wear glasses and they weren39。It is important to remember these are connections which are not proven causes. Scientists call this correlation. Just because something is connected to something else does not mean one of those things caused the other. And it39。 If you wear glasses, chances are you are smarter. Research published in the famous British journal Nature Communications has found that people who displayed higher levels of intelligence were almost 30 percent more likely to wear glasses. 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇科研類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案??芍爻沧搴⒆蝇F(xiàn)象的副作用是在少數(shù)情況下,緊張情緒會(huì)導(dǎo)致父母和孩子之間偶爾發(fā)生爭吵。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的‘However’, the study says, ‘daytoday
