1. My husband Christopher was once a financial planner. Even though he couldn’ tbalance our budget,his clients trusted him pletely and he made them feelsecure. In exchange they paid him very well.We had a nice life
第 8 页 共 73 页
then.At that time,myyoga studio(瑜伽馆)was just starting to make a profit,and I had recently decoratedit.At last, I was in control of my working life and poured my heart and soul intomaking it succeed.
When we first met,I fell hard for Christopher right away,although I wouldn’t callit love. I’ d never been with a man who was prettier than I was,but after a while Igot used to this,and it didn’t bother me so much.I was recovering from a brokenheart and needed something to help me move on.If it wasn’t love,it was goodenough, and when he asked me to marry him I jumped at the chance,knowing that itmight be my last.
Things started out so well.I was working steadily and Christopher was patientlyclimbing up the ladder in his department.Then,without any warning,one gray
winterafternoon in year five,he just upped and left his desk at the bank,handed in hisresignation,and came home and told me he wanted to start an interior designbusiness.

too much and perhaps he wouldtake a few months off over the spring and summer to relax and get the idea out ofhis system.

hums, and you cannot concentrate on the slides.Youstop absorbing information and bee absentminded. The professor lost you a longtime ago. You are bored.Virtually everyone gets bored once in a while. Most of us chalk it up to a dullenvironment. “The most mon way to define boredom in Western culture is ‘havingnothing to do, ’ ” says psychologist Stephen Vodanovich of the University of WestFlorida. And indeed,early research into the effects of boredom focused on peopleforced to perform dull tasks,such as working a factory assembly line.But boredom is not merely an natural property of the circumstances,researcherssay.Rather this perception is subjective and rooted in aspects ofconsciousness.Levels of boredom vary among people:some individuals are far lessliable to boredom than others—and some,such as extroverts(性格外向者),are morelikely to have this feeling.
Thus, a new generation of scientists is coping with the psychologicalinterpretations of this most tedious of human emotions—and they have found that itis more plicated than is monly known.Researchers say that boredom is not aunified concept but rather es in several

flavors.Level of attention,an aspect ofconscious
awareness,plays an important role in boredom,such that improving aperson’s ability to focus may therefore decrease boredom.Emotional factors can alsocontribute to boredom.People who are poor in understanding their own feelings andthose who bee sucked in and distracted by their moods are more easily bored,forle.Staying away from tedium is not easy.People who are liable to boredom are morelikely to suffer from ills such as depression and drug addiction;they also tend tobe socially awkward and poor performers at school or work.

3. Storytelling is one of the few human features that are truly universal acrossculture and through all of known history.Anthropologists find evidence of folktaleseverywhere in ancient cultures,written in anskrit,Latin,Greek,Chinese,Egyptianand Sumerian.People in societies of all types weave stories,from oral storytellersin huntergatherer tribes to the millions of writers bringing out books,televisionshows and
movies.And when a characteristic behavior shows up in so many differentsocieties,researchers pay attention:its roots may tell us something about ourevolutionary past.
To study storytelling,scientists must first define what constitutes a story,andthat can prove tricky.Because there are so many diverse forms,scholars often
definestory structure,known as narrative,by explaining what it is not.Expositioncontrasts with narrative by being a simple,straightforward explanation,such as alist of facts or an encyclopedia entry.Another standard approach defines narrativeas a series of causally linked events that unfold over time.A third definition drawson the typical narrative’s subject matter:the interactions of intentionalagents—characters with minds—who possess
第 15 页 共 73 页
various motivations.However narrative is defined,people know it when they feel it.Whether fiction ornonfiction,a narrative engages its audience through
psychologicalrealism—recognizable emotions and
believable interactions among characters.“Everyone has a natural detector for psychological realism,”says RaymondA.Mar,assistant professor of psychology at York University in Toronto.“We can tellwhen something rings false.”But the best stories—those retold through generationsand translated into other languages—do more than simply present a believablepicture.These tales attract their audience,whose emotions can be closely tied tothose of the story’s characters.Such immersion(沉浸)is a state psychologistscall“narrative
transport”.Researchers have only begun figuring out the relationsamong the variables that can initiate narrative transport.
(1). The passage indicates that storytelling. (A). is being less and less popular in modern societies
(B). attracts researchers’attention all through human history

1. Everyone agrees that children’ s language learning begins withlistening. However,individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening theydo before they start speaking,and late starters are often long listeners.Mostchildren will‘obey’spoken instructions some time before they can speak.Before theycan speak, many children also ask questions by gestures and noises. It is agreed thatthey enjoy making noises,and that during the first few months one or two noises areconsidered as a particular indication of delight,distress,sociability,and so on.But since three noises cannot be said to show the baby’s intention tomunicate,they can hardly be regarded as early forms of
第 24 页 共 73 页
language.It isagreed,too,that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment,andby six months they are able to add new sounds to their‘speech’.This selfimitationleads on to intentional imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by otherpeople.Can these imitations be considered as speech?
答案:
大家都认同孩子学习语言是从听开始的。
不过, 各个孩子在开始讲话前听的多少却大不相同, 说话迟的孩子听的时间往往长。
大多数孩子在说话前的一段时间都会‘服从’ 口头指令。 许多孩子在会讲话前还会用某种体势及闹声来提问。 人们也同意孩子喜欢发出闹声这一说法, 而且认为在最初几个月, 一两声吵闹是快乐、
痛苦、
友善等的表示。
但是因为三声吵闹声还不能说是孩子想交流, 所以还很难被看作是孩子语言的雏形。
人们还赞同, 三个月左右的孩子以发出各种声音为乐, 到六个月的时候, 他们就能在发声时添加新的发音。
这种自我模仿将会发展为有意识地模仿他人的发音和话语。这些模仿能不能被看作是说话呢?

Questions26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A recent study shows that sixteen out of every 100 American couoles have violent confrontations of one sort oranother during the course of a year. In six of these cases there is severe kicking, biting, punching or hitting withobjects. Almost four of every 100 wives are seriously beaten by their husbands. three of every 100 children arekicked or punched by their parents. More than a third of all brothers and sisters severely attack each other.As expected, the incidence of violence is highest among the urban poor (many of them minoroties).blue-collarworkers, people under 20 or without religious beliefs, families with a husband who is jobless and those with four tosix children. But the study also showed that violence occurs among wealthy families as well. Indeed, the wife of auniversity president once quietly called Straus, one of the sociologists who conducted the study, to ask what shecould do about her husband, who often beat her. Straus suggested seeking assistance from marriage
第 32 页 共 73 页
advisors.Steaus and his colleagues found out that there are various root causes that give rise to such behavior.“Thereason are mixed –psychological, sociological, situational,” says Straus.“The husband, for exle, may feel underparticular stress because be has been out of work too long. Violence may also be an echo of the past,” Strausexplains.“When Mummy gives her two-year-old a slap(巴掌)
for putting something dirty in his mouth, he islearning from infancy that those who love you hit you.” Another reason may be the worsening economic situations.“If we have a real economos decline, It’s going to get worse,” economic situations.“If we have a real economicdeclines,it’s going to get worse,” says Gelles, one of Straus” colleagues.These sociologists have no easy answer to violence in the American family. While they wele such move asthe opening of shelters for beaten wives and the establishment of a National Center for Child Abuse and Neglect,they belive that there must be more basic attack on vilolence,including the reduction of “macho”(大男子主义)themes on the television,the outlawing of physical punishment in schools and perhaps
第 33 页 共 73 页
even the wlimination ofdeath senernces.As Straus
explains,“Volence is an acceptable solution to problems in American society,And that ishow it is used in families.

B. the incidence of violence is highest among urban families
C. marriage advisons’ assistance is the best solution to violence
D. domestic vilence exists regardless of age, race,and social status.

Qestions 31to35are based on the following passage.American scientists are developing an
“intelligent” mabile phone capable of blocking ining calls
depending on the owner’s mood., Using “context aware”Technology the “Sensay” phone will monitor calls and send back polite messages saying the user may becontacted later.A research team at the Institute for plex Engineering Systems at Carragie Mellon University in Pittsburg,Pennsylvania, are developing body temperature and electrical skin monitors to help the device understand theemotional state of its user. If the phone senses that the user is busy —for instance, involved in a conversation—itmight block an ining call and turn it onto voicemail. The phone would send back a text message saying the useris unavailable, but advising that id the matter is urgent the caller can try again in three minutes. If a call from thesame person came in again, the phone would put it through.The researchers are interested in four basic different states—busy and not to be interrupted, physically active,idle,and “normal.” Most people are said to change between these states,an average

of 6 to 12 times a day.Professor Asim Smailagic, a leading member of the Carnegic Mellon team, told The Engineermagazine.”Today’s puters are pretty dumb pared with the device. We got to work at the beginning of Mayand since then have been improving it. The next stage is to make it smarter, adding various intellingence systems soit can learn about the user. The phone also employs four primary sensons—two microphones to pick upconversations and monitor local noise.a light detector and an acceleromster(加速度计)
.The light sensor shows ifthe phone is being carried in a bag or pocket ,while the accelerometer determines whether the user iswalking,running or standing still, In the sensor box, phone is being carried in a bag or pocket, while theaccelerometer determites whether the user is walking,running or standing still,In the future,the sensor box,phoneand personal organizer will be bined into one device.”

resourcerichenvironment,with game,fish and wildlife.In fact we have data on disadvantagedpeople in America,such as slaves.They were obviously among the most mistreatedpopulations in the world,but given the
第 55 页 共 73 页
resource abundance,and given the fact thatthe slave owners needed their work,they had to be fed relatively decently.So theslaves were taller than European
peasants.It’s no wonder that Europeans were justflooding to America.
Americans today are no longer the tallest people in the world.After WorldWarⅡ , many Western and Northern European countries began to adopt favorable
socialpolicies. There is universal health insurance in most of these societies—that,ofcourse, makes a difference in health care.You can also consider ine inequality inthe U. S. , since people who are at the low end of the totem pole(图腾柱)haveconsiderable adversity making ends meet.I suspect the difference in height betweenAmericans and Europeans is due to both diet and health care.Americans today suffer from an additional problem:obesity.If children are too wellnourished, then they’re not able to grow optimally.There are certain hormones thatcontrol the start of the adolescent growth and the start of adolescence.Nutritionis

family paid the ‘Yuino’money toHiromi’s.This money is to help pay for the wedding ceremony and for setting uphouse afterwards.We

technologies like email and Inter research,which are an increasingpart of college munication and courses.They may be unaware of availableresources, such as financial aid,tutoring centers or mentoring programs,and may beunfamiliar with terms such as
‘bursar’and‘prerequisite.’And if you don’t knowwhere to begin or what to do once you do get there,it’s easy to get overwhelmedand simply give up.”

with‘buildings’representing thesort of departments and classrooms housed on a college cus.Each
buildingcontains‘classes’that describe the admissions process,where to look for grantsand scholarships,and lists resources,where an outofpractice student can reviewreading, writing,and math.There are also lists of advice and resources to helpstudents with their college life.Another helpful aspect of thisinteractive,
multimedia site is its audio capacity:all texts can be read to thevisitor. This particular feature is especially helpful for people with visualproblems or learning disabilities.The cycle of learning runs from cradle to

People left their offices at a predictable time,were often pletelydisconnected from their jobs as they
traveled to and from work,and were offdutyonce they were home.That’s
no longer true.In
today’s highly petitive jobmarket, employers demand increased productivity,expecting employees to put in longerhours and to keep in touch almost constantly via fax,cell phones,email,or othermunications devices.As
第 72 页 共 73 页
a result,employees feel the need to check what’s goingon at the office,even on days off.They
feel pressured to work after office hoursjust to catch up on everything they have to do.They
work harder and longer, changetheir work tasks more frequently,and they worry more about job security.
答案:
过去, 工作与休闲的界限泾渭分明。
人们可在预计的时间下班, 在上下班的途中往往与工作完全脱离。
而且, 一旦回到家, 就不再工作, 而现今这种情况已不复存在。
在今天竞争十分激烈的职场上, 雇主要求提高生产率, 希望雇员加班加点, 而且还要通过传真、
移动电话、 电子邮或其他通讯工具随时保持联系。 这样, 雇员就觉得有必要了解办公室的事情, 甚至休假时也不例外, 他们感到压力, 需要加班赶进度, 确保完成每所要做的事。
他们工作更勤奋, 投入的时间更多,工作任务变换得更频繁,越发为保住工作而烦心。
