参考答案

1.C解析：段末处设题。本题考查如何解决钱款纠纷。本段中提到吐款机制中的电子眼功能可记录下一笔交易的现金信息。纠纷发生时，持卡人可索求交易记录。若无打印的交易记录，持卡人可通知银行或发卡机构，并填表传真给thehostprocessor，交由该系统处理纠纷。但文中并未提到是该系统的监测功能使之能够解决交易纠纷。

2.strengthtrainingbalanceandaerobicsstrengthtraining，balanceandaerobics解析：在副标题60sand70s的段落中，专家提到了此阶段的健身应以体力训练、身体的平衡及有氧运动为主。

3.Psychoanalysis。Psychoanalysis。解析：由文章第二十段得知，即当病人们自由地讲述困扰他们的事情时，他们经常会感觉更好，然后他们学会控制住这种害怕。因此，这句话讲的什么是psychoanalysis。

4.D解析：细节推断题。文章指出，与专利一样，美国的商标注册也是由美国专利商标局负责。由此可知，专利和商标注册是在同一个部门进行。因此D)为正确答案。

5.A解析：根据“Whilesomejobseekersspendhundreds-eventhousands-ofhoursdiscoveringdaytimetelevision，othersseemtothriveonactivitiesthatboosttheirprofessionalcareersorresolvefamilyissueswhentheyaren'tworking．”，我们可以判断这句话是正确的。因为有人利用失业在家的时间提高专业知识，解决家庭问题等等。

6.B解析：该句提到，AsFeldmannotes…evolutionarybasisfordeception:inthewild,animals
