参考答案一．信息匹配（共11小题）1．【分析】本文主要介绍了很多人由于害怕出错而不敢在公开场合演讲，文章就这个话题提出了一些建议：1、语言简洁；2、条理清晰；3、提前准备好内容；4、篇幅短小精悍．【解答】36．D联系上文题．根据前句Thereasonisthatweareallafraidofmakingfoolsofourselves．可知很多人害怕出丑，所以紧接着进一步说明演讲越重要，越害怕．D项：Themoreimportantthespeechis，themorefrightenedwebecome．演讲越重要，我们就越害怕．符合文意，故选D．37．B语境辨析题．根据前文Icantellyouthatpublicspeakingisnota"gift"likemusicaltalentorbeingabletodraw．可知我可以告诉你，公开演讲不是像音乐或绘画那样的"天赋"．B项：Anybodywhocantalkcanspeakinpublic任何会说话的人都能当众讲话．符合文意，故选B．38．E联系下文题．根据后文Andifyoudon'thaveaclearideaofwhatyouwanttosay，there'snowayyouraudiencewill．可知如果你对你想说的话还没有一个清晰的概念，你的听众就不太愿意去听．E项：Ifyoucan'texpressinasentenceortwowhatyouintendtoexpress，thenyourspeechisnotfocusedwellenough如果你不能用一两句话表达你想表达的意思，那么你的演讲就不够集中．符合文意，故选E．39．G段落理解题．根据本段小标题Getorganized．条理清晰．G项：Nomatterhowlongorshortyourspeechis，you'vegottogetyourducksinarow．不管你的演说多长或短，你都得让它们有条理．符合文意，故选G．40．F联系上文题．根据前句的例子WhenIdoaradioorTVpiece，Ioftenwritethelastsentencefirst．看出，提前准备好内容，可以知道下一步该做什么．F项：Whenyouknowwhereyou'reheaded，youcanchooseanyroutetogetthere当你知道你的方向，你可以选择任何路线到达那里．符合文意，故选F．【点评】七选五阅读理解题要在理解文章整体的基础上，补全所缺的部分．针对这个特点，解答时要注意语境和上下文的联系，同时还要注意文章的写作方法和结构．尤其要留心选项中的信息词（空格前后句子中与选项中相同或相近的词），站在作者的写作立场，选出最符合作者原意的句子．2．【分析】本文是一片科技类文章．文章主要讲述了人为什么会遗忘，以及人类的"长时记忆"和"短时记忆"发生的原理．【解答】1．C．考查事实．根据前面的"Itmakesusfeelupsetandgetdiscouraged．"可知，遗忘使我们感到心烦和泄气，再根据C项中的关键词"even"可知，此处是对前面表达的内容作更进一步的表述，在意义上递进，故C项正确．2．E．考查文章结构．根据后面的"Thesearestoredinwhatwecallour‘long﹣termmemory'．"及"Whataboutbeforeagethree？"可知，本句要表达的是与后面的对比；E选项关键词：agethree．故答案是E．3．D．考查细节．从后面的"Theyhavedifferentopinions．"可知，代词"They"不是指代前面出现过的SigmundFreud，而应该是其他的科学家．A项的主语也符合代词所指，但从逻辑句意上不符合，D项在语义上更匹配．4．G．考查主旨大意．根据后面的"Expertssaythatyoucankeepaboutseventhingsinyourmemoryatonceforuptothreedays．Duringthattime，youmayforgetsomethinginordertoputsomethingelseinitsplace，oryouputitintolong﹣termmemory．"可知，大脑一次最多记忆七件事且保持三天；对比后面提及的长时记忆，可以判断出，本段的主旨应该是讲短时记忆，所以G项正确．5．F．考查细节．根据前面提到的"Whatgoesintoshort﹣termmemoryarethingsyou'velearnedaboutrecently，inthepastdayortwo．"及后面的"Forexample，youmayhavemetyourfavoritestarlastweek，andthisweekyoucantellallthedetailstoafriend．"可知，作者所列举的内容与F项表达的内容在意思上匹配．【点评】七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子．解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子．3．【分析】这是一篇说明文。作者认为人们应该练习搁置我们的恐惧和担忧，专注于我们喜欢的事情。生命自有其韵律，我们应该学会搁置烦扰，倾听内心的交响乐。【解答】（1）G.联系下文题。根据后文"You'dbrokenyourknees，say，oryoulearnedofafailureofexam."（比如说，你摔断了膝盖，或者听说考试不及格。）可知，此处是指你发生了不好的事情，且和前文"Imagineit'syourbirthday，andyourfriendsandfamilypooltheirmoneytogetyouthebestgiftyoucanimagine：ticketsforfabulousseatstoseeyourfavoritemusicalact."（想象一下，今天是你的生日，你的朋友和家人凑钱给你买了一份你能想到的最好的礼物：你最喜欢的音乐表演的绝佳座位票。）构成转折关系，对应选项G中的转折词but，所以选项G"但如果你到了会场，却发生了可怕的事情怎么办？"切合文意。故选G。（2）D.联系上文题。根据前文"Evenwhilefacingtheprospectofextremedifficultyinyourlife，youaresothrilledtoseeyourfavoritegroupthatforacoupleofhours，youcanputallofthatbehindyou."（即使在你面临生活中极端困难的前景时，你看到你最喜欢的乐团会很激动，在几个小时内，你可以把所有的一切抛到脑后。）可知，前文中的"awonderfulgift"（很棒的天赋）是指暂停自己的恐惧担忧，专注于所爱之事上，所以选项D"这是一种能够搁置我们的恐惧和担忧，专注于我们喜欢的事情的能力。"切合文意。故选D。（3）F.推理判断题。根据前文"Throughoutourlives，nomatterwhatelseisgoingon，amelodyispresent."（在我们的一生中，无论发生什么，总有一段旋律存在。）可知，选项F中的melody是指生活中的旋律，根据后文"Thenoiseofourworrydrownsoutalltheotherthingswemightotherwisehearandenjoy."（我们担心的噪音淹没了我们可能听到和享受的所有其他事情。）可知，我们的担心会让我们忽略掉生活中的旋律，所以选项F"但我们往往太过专注于当下，而忽略了旋律。"切合文意。故选F。（4）A.细节理解题。根据后文"Wecantapintothemusic，andwhenwedofindourselvesdistractedfromit，wecanuseconsciousnesstobringusrightback."（我们可以进入音乐，当我们发现自己从音乐中分心时，我们可以用意识把我们带回来。）和"Soon，wewillfindthatwehavetoredirectourselveslessandless，andwehearthemusicmoreandmore."（很快，我们就会发现，我们越来越少地需要改变方向，我们听到的音乐也越来越多。）可知，此处是指通过足够的
