Stuttering (口 吃)has nothing to do with intelligence. I know this because I stutter. If it takes me a while longer to say a word, it's not because I can't remember the word; it's because the neural(神经的) pathway that transforms words in my head into sounds in my mouth is wired differently. And differences, of course, are the best way to get negative attention in our society. Taking extra time to get my words out can surely be frustrating, but that's nothing compared to the misery of dealing with people's reactions.
Almost all children who stutter are discouraged from speaking in one way or another. It's usually not as direct as someone walking up to them and saying, “Hey, stuttering kid! Keep your mouth shut!” But when your voice causes adults and peers to snicker (窃笑)or roll their eyes, it's pretty discouraging.
Growing up, I learned to avoid speaking whenever possible. I hated what came out of my mouth, full of awkward breaks and pauses. I figured whatever future I had, it probably involved a vow of silence.
Today Fm a touring author and comedian. It took me 30-something years to get over stuttering. Did I stop stuttering? No! I couldn't stop if I wanted to. But I stopped wanting to stop. Instead of wasting all my time and energy trying to meet unattainable standards, I learned that it's OK to stutter. And I learned by example. I attended the National Stuttering Association conference and met all kinds of people who stutter—people who didn't hate themselves, who didn't silence themselves. They stuttered, and they were OK with it! I remember watching them and thinking, "That's who I want to be!"
There's a popular saying in comedy: "Your weakness is your strength." When I first entered my local open-mic scene, I was quickly met with some "smart" guys looking to score a cheap laugh at my expense. I remember introducing myself to one comedian and stuttering on my name, as I usually do. Eager to demonstrate his smartness, he replied, "Is that Nina with five Ns?" "No," I said, "it's Nina with two Ns!" Just like that, I had created a joke as the result of someone making fiin of my stutter.
To this day, whenever I need inspiration for a new joke, I just think about all the ridiculous comments I get from non-stuttering people. It's a comedy gold mine!
4. It takes the author longer to say a word because she has _______.
A. a comparatively low IQ B. trouble in organizing ideas
C. a relatively small brain D. problems in her neural system
5. What annoys the author most about her stuttering is _______.
A. the unfriendly reactions of others
B. the difficulty in memorising words
C. her unpromising future as a stutterer
D. her embarrassing pauses during talks
6 The author got over stuttering by _______.
A. adjusting her attitude towards it
B. getting help from non-stutterers
C. telling herself constantly to stop it
D. silencing herself whenever possible
7. Paragraph 5 is mainly about the author's _______.
A. success as a comedian
B. respect for other comedians
C. resistance to others' strength
D. acceptance of her imperfection
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述作者花了30多年克服了口吃的毛病,并成为一名巡回演出的作家和喜剧演员。作者认为克服口吃最重要的是,改变对口吃的态度并接受自己的不完美。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“it's because the neural(神经的)pathway that transforms words in my head into sounds in my mouth is wired differently.(这是因为将我大脑中的文字转换成嘴里的声音的神经通路是不同的。)”可知,因为她的神经系统有问题,所以作者说一个字要花更长的时间。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“But when your voice causes adults and peers to snicker (窃笑)or roll their eyes, it's pretty discouraging. (但是,当你的声音会导致成人和同伴偷笑窃或不以为然,这很令人沮丧。)”可推断出,她口吃最让作者恼火的是别人不友好的反应。故选A。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段和特别是第四段“Instead of wasting all my time and energy trying to meet unattainable standards, I learned that it's OK to stutter.( 我并没有浪费时间和精力去达到无法达到的标准,我意识到了口吃是没关系的。)”可推断出,作者从尽量避免说话到克服了口吃的毛病,是因为作者通过调整自己的态度克服了口吃。故选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第五段首句“There's a popular saying in comedy: "Your weakness is your strength." (在喜剧中有一句流行的谚语:“你的弱点就是你的长处。”)”和后文作者举自己向一位喜剧演员介绍自己的事例可知,本段作者告诉我们要学会接受自己的不完美。故选D。
【点睛】推理判断题属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题,做这类题目时,同学们要严格依据作者所陈述的细节、事实以及作者的措词、态度和语气,找出能够表露作者思想倾向和感情色彩的词句,然后利用自己已获得的相关知识进行推理判断,从而得出符合逻辑的结论。如小题2根据文章第二段“But when your voice causes adults and peers to snicker (窃笑)or roll their eyes, it's pretty discouraging. (但是,当你的声音会导致成人和同伴偷笑窃或不以为然,这很令人沮丧。)”中带有感情色彩的词句“it's pretty discouraging”可推断出,她口吃最让作者恼火的是别人不友好的反应,从而推断出答案。
C
No matter where they live in the world, in general, women are better at empathizing with other people than men, according to a study published in the journal PNAS.
Cognitive empathy is when a person is intellectually able to understand what someone else might be thinking or feeling. So if, for instance, a person is telling he had a bad time with his family over the holiday, a person with cognitive empathy would understand how that bad time makes the person feel by intellectually putting him/her in that other person’s shoes.
It’s different from emotional empathy: a person feels another person’s emotions and responds with an appropriate reaction or emotion. For instance, if someone is crying about a broken relationship, a person with emotional empathy would start to feel sad too, and feel compassion for that person.
There’s a test on University of Cambridge’s website that tests both forms of empathy. To conduct this new study, researchers used the “Eyes Test”. The test asks participants to look at photos of the area around a person’s eyes. The person is making a particular kind of facial expression, and the study participant must identify what that person is thinking or feeling from a set of possibilities.
The authors of the study worked at University of Cambridge in Britain and Harvard University in the USA, Bar-Ilan University and Haifa University in Israel, as well as at the IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca in Italy. Mixing their results with large samples from different online platforms, the authors of the study captured results from nearly 306,000 people across 57 countries including Argentina, Croatia, Egypt, India, Japan and Norway.
In 36 countries, women scored on average significantly higher in their cognitive empathy scores than men did. In 21 of the countries, women’s and men’s scores were similar. There wasn’t a single country in which men scored better, on average, than women. The results held across eight languages and were consistent across the lifespan, from people aged 16 — 70 years old.
In some of the earlier studies, sex differences in empathy were sometimes attributed to biological and social factors. Understanding sex differences in empathy could help scientists better understand why certain mental health problems impact more men than women, the researchers said.
8. Which of the following can be classified as emotional empathy?
A. A person can understand the dilemma of another person.
B. A nurse shows concern for the patient by many little attentions.
C. A friend can help a girl control her feeling of missing her dead mother.
D. A student is crying about his failing test, and his classmate is crying too with him.
9. What was the researchers’ purpose in using the “Eyes Test”?
A. To inspire the participants to empathize.
B. To differentiate the two forms of empathy.
C. To recognize the participants’ visual sense.
D. To measure the participants’ empathy levels.
10. What did the researchers do for their study?
A. They collected data from around the globe.
B. They built many online platforms to collect data.
C. They interviewed millions of people worldwide.
D. They traveled globally to meet related experts.
11. What do we know about the sex differences in empathy from the study?
A. They will even increase with people aging.
B. They are unrelated to the cultural differences.
C. They are more obvious in developed countries.
D. They are the causes of mental health problems.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项收集了大量数据的研究表明,总的来说,无论生活在世界哪个地方,女性都比男性更善于与他人共情。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It’s different from emotional empathy: a person feels another person’s emotions and responds with an appropriate reaction or emotion. For instance, if someone is crying about a broken relationship, a person with emotional empathy would start to feel sad too, and feel compassion for that person.(它不同于情感共情:一个人感受到另一个人的情绪,并以适当的反应或情绪做出回应。例如,如果有人为一段破裂的关系哭泣,一个有情感共情的人也会开始感到悲伤,并对那个人感到同情。)”可知,情感共情是感受到另一个人的情绪并做出回应,因此D项“一个学生因为考试不及格而哭,他的同学也跟着哭”符合情感共情的定义和事例,可归为情感共情。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The test asks participants to look at photos of the area around a person’s eyes. The person is making a particular kind of facial expression, and the study participant must identify what that person is thinking or feeling from a set of possibilities.(测试要求参与者看一个人眼睛周围区域的照片。这个人正在做出一种特殊的面部表情,研究参与者必须从一系列可能性中识别出这个人在想什么或感觉什么。)”和倒数第二段中“In 36 countries, women scored on average significantly higher in their cognitive empathy scores than men did. In 21 of the countries, women’s and men’s scores were similar.(在36个国家中,女性在认知共情方面的平均得分明显高于男性。在21个国家中,女性和男性的得分相似。)”可知,在“眼睛测试”中参与者需根据眼睛周围区域的照片判断一个人的想法和感觉,研究最后据此对男性和女性的共情能力打分。由此推知,研究者使用“眼睛测试”是为了测量参与者的共情水平。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Mixing their results with large samples from different online platforms, the authors of the study captured results from nearly 306,000 people across 57 countries including Argentina, Croatia, Egypt, India, Japan and Norway.(该研究的作者将他们的研究结果与来自不同在线平台的大量样本相结合,从包括阿根廷、克罗地亚、埃及、印度、日本和挪威在内的57个国家的近30.6万人中获取了结果。)”可知,研究者为该研究收集了来自全球的数据。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“The results held across eight languages and were consistent across the lifespan, from people aged 16 — 70 years old.(研究结果适用于8种语言,并在16岁至70岁的人群中保持一致。)”可知,研究结果显示共情能力方面的性别差异在多个语言区域适用。由此推知,这种差异与文化差异无关。故选B项。
D
Archaeologists in Germany have uncovered some of the earliest evidence of the use of clothing, with newly discovered cut marks on a cave bear’s paws suggesting the prehistoric animal was skinned for its fur some 300,000 years ago.
The discovery in Schöningen, northern Germany, is exciting because despite the written records of cave men and women covered in fur in some popular cultures, very little is truly known about how early humans clothed their bodies. Fur, leather and other organic materials typically can’t be preserved beyond 100,000 years.
“The study is significant because direct evidence of prehistoric clothing is scant and we know relatively little about how humans in the deep past were protecting themselves from cold winters. From this early time period, there are only a handful of sites that show evidence of bear skinning, with Schöningen providing the most complete picture,” said study author Ivo Verheijen from Tübingen University in Germany.
Cave bears were large animals, about the size of polar bears, that went extinct about 25,000 years ago. The cave bear’s fur, which has long outer hairs that form an airy protective layer, and short, dense hairs that provide good insulation (隔离), was suitable for making simple clothing or bedding.
The clothing in the site probably wrapped the human body without careful tailoring. The eyed needles needed to sew more excellent designs didn’t emerge in the archaeological record until about 45,000 years ago.
“We found the cut marks on the cave bear’s hands and feet where very little meat or fat is present on the bones, which argues against the cut marks originating from the butchering of the animal,” Verheijen said. “In these locations, the skin is much closer to the bones, which makes marking the bones inevitable when an animal is being skinned.”
The Schöningen site in Germany is most famous for the discovery of the oldest known wooden weapons that were used to kill prey 300,000 years ago.
But it’s still challenging to figure out exactly when ancient humans began wearing clothing. Genetic studies of lice (跳蚤) indicate that clothing lice separated from their human head louse ancestors at least 83,000 years ago and possibly as early as 170,000 years ago, which suggests humans were wearing clothes before major migrations out of Africa. Bone tools found in what’s now Morocco suggest that humans were processing animal skins 90,000 to 120,000 years ago.
12. What did archaeologists find in Schöningen?
A. Fur of a cave bear. B. Bones with cut marks.
C. Pieces of prehistoric clothing. D. Evidence of prehistoric hunting.
13. What does the word “scant” underlined in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Not correct. B. Not very much.
C. Not valuable. D. Not clear enough.
14. What did Verheijen aim to do in paragraph 6?
A. To give an explanation. B. To provide some examples.
C. To offer more details of the study. D. To show the importance of the study.
15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. Previous studies on human clothing.
B. The process of studying human clothing.
C. Other new discoveries of human clothing.
D. An unsolved mystery about human clothing.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。研究表明,德国考古学家发现了一些最早使用衣服的证据。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Archaeologists in Germany have uncovered some of the earliest evidence of the use of clothing, with newly discovered cut marks on a cave bear’s paws suggesting the prehistoric animal was skinned for its fur some 300,000 years ago. (德国考古学家发现了一些最早使用衣服的证据,新发现的洞熊爪子上的切割痕迹表明,大约30万年前,这种史前动物被剥皮以获取皮毛。)”和第二段的“The discovery in Schöningen, northern Germany(这个德国北部Schöningen的发现)”可知,在Schöningen考古学家发现了带有切割痕迹的洞熊的爪子,也就是骨头。故选B。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前文“The study is significant (这项研究意义重大)”和下文“we know relatively little about how humans in the deep past were protecting themselves from cold winters.(对于远古时代的人类如何抵御寒冷的冬天,我们所知相对较少。)”可知,这个发现意义重大,我们对于远古时代的人类如何抵御寒冷的冬天所知相对较少,因为关于史前服装的直接证据很少,因此划线词与B项“不是太多”意思相近。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段““We found the cut marks on the cave bear’s hands and feet where very little meat or fat is present on the bones, which argues against the cut marks originating from the butchering of the animal,” Verheijen said. “In these locations, the skin is much closer to the bones, which makes marking the bones inevitable when an animal is being skinned.”(Verheijen说:“我们在洞熊的手和脚上发现了切痕,骨头上几乎没有肉或脂肪,这证明切痕不是来自于动物的屠杀。”“在这些地方,皮肤离骨头更近,这使得动物在剥皮时不可避免地要在骨头上做标记。”)”可知,在这一段 Verheijen讲述了更多的研究细节,因此推断目的是给出解释。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“But it’s still challenging to figure out exactly when ancient humans began wearing clothing. Genetic studies of lice (跳蚤) indicate that clothing lice separated from their human head louse ancestors at least 83,000 years ago and possibly as early as 170,000 years ago, which suggests humans were wearing clothes before major migrations out of Africa. Bone tools found in what’s now Morocco suggest that humans were processing animal skins 90,000 to 120,000 years ago. (但要弄清楚古代人类开始穿衣服的确切时间仍然是一个挑战。对虱子的基因研究表明,衣服虱子至少在8.3万年前,甚至可能早在17万年前就与人类头虱的祖先分离了,这表明在人类大规模迁徙出非洲之前,人类就已经穿衣服了。在现在的摩洛哥发现的骨骼工具表明,人类在9万到12万年前就开始加工动物皮了。)”可知,最后一段讲述了早前对于古代人类衣服的一些研究,故选A。

【16题详解】
根据上文Humans were made for walking. With our upright posture and strong leg muscles, our bodies were actually designed with walking in mind which makes it such perfect exercise. It’s kind to our bodies and great for our waistlines.可知,人是为行走而生的。由于我们直立的姿势和强壮的腿部肌肉,我们的身体实际上是为步行而设计的,这使得步行成为一种完美的锻炼。它对我们的身体有好处,对我们的腰围也有好处。由此可知,本句承接上文继续说明步行的好处。故E选项“最重要的是,这是一个认识新事物和认识新朋友的好方法!”符合上下文语境,故选E。
【17题详解】
结合后文Ask yourself, what do you want to get out of walking aside from the health benefits? Do you want to meet other people? See new places? Get out into the countryside or explore a new city? Knowing your goals will help you decide on the type of walk you want to do.可知,问问你自己,除了健康益处,你还想从散步中得到什么?你想认识其他人吗?看到新地方吗?走出家门去乡下还是去探索一个新的城市?了解你的目标将帮助你决定你想要走的类型。由此可知,本句是在说明要带着目标步行,后文一系列设问句是在解释如何寻找目标。故选D项“不管怎样,现在是时候接受带着目标走路的想法了”符合上下文语境,故选D。
【18题详解】
根据上文If making friends and socializing is your goal, call up your friends and schedule walks with them.可知,如果交朋友和社交是你目标,打电话给你的朋友,安排和他们一起散步。由此可知,如果想要和朋友一起散步社交,那么需要了解他们喜欢去哪里散步。故C选项“问问你的朋友他们喜欢去哪里散步,然后就去那里”符合上下文语境,故选C。
【19题详解】
根据后文Many large cities have incredible gardens and parks that include quiet walking trails getting you off the beaten path.可知,许多大城市都有令人难以置信的花园和公园,里面有安静的步行道,让你远离人迹罕至的小路。由此可知,本段是在说明如果想一个人散步,可以选择的散步地点是离开城镇后安静的步行道。故G选项“如果你想一个人散步,可以问问当地的徒步旅行,这样你就可以离开城镇,去乡下了”符合上下文语境,故选G。
【20题详解】
根据上文From the benefits to your heart to your overall happiness, walking is just plain good for you.可知,从对你的心脏的好处到你整体的快乐,步行对你来说是非常好的。结合本段为文章最后一段,有总结上文的作用,上文提到了散步的好处和选择,那么此处应当是倡导人们开始步行。故B选项“这个月,拿起一张地图,开始步行”符合上下文语境,故选B。

The study challenges the popular trend of intermittent fasting (禁食疗法) as a useful weight loss strategy.
Intermittent fasting, also referred to ____43____ time-restricted feeding, is a dietary strategy where all meals ____44____ (consume) during a short window of time each day. These windows can span anywhere from six to ten hours, resulting in a person essentially fasting for up to 18 hours each day.
Through tracking ____45____ (participant) daily meal times and sizes and correlating them with weight loss patterns over a six-year period, researchers revealed there was no link between the time of a person’s eating window each day and weight changes. “Timing of meals most likely doesn’t produce ____46____ immediate impact on weight loss,” said Bennett. “What does make a difference to weight, ____47____, is the total number of meals a person eats over the day. Simply eating smaller meals, less frequently, is ____48____ ultimately leads to weight loss.
All of this, of course, doesn’t mean intermittent fasting strategies won’t help. But it seems increasingly clear that the weight loss ____49____ (occasion) seen with these eating strategies may be primarily driven by a _____50_____ (reduce) caloric intake.

6.考查冠词。句意:前瑜伽教练陈淼现在经营着一个手工饭团的摊位。此处泛指一位教练,应用不定冠词来修饰,且former发音是以辅音音素开头,应用a。故将the改为a。
