B．planningC．natural D．formal答案：A由上文中的“explorenewaspectsoflife”可知，所填词与explore(探索)在词义上相近，故选searching(寻找)。2．A.progress B．experienceC．major D．opinion答案：B根据语境可知，此处指作者发现了让自己大学经历(experience)变得更美好的事物。另外，第三段中的“Ihadexperienced”也给出了提示。3．A.choose B．readC．learn D．create答案：C后面一句提到作者的全家人及他所有的朋友均有正常的听觉，因此他之前从没有想学(learn)手语的强烈愿望。另外，第四段中的“Ionlylearnedhowto”也给出了提示。4．A.official B．foreignC．body D．spoken答案：D既然作者和家人及朋友都听觉正常，那么在作者与别人的所有交往中，口语(spokenlanguages)已经足够了。5．A.love B．concernC．goal D．request答案：A由下文内容尤其是最后一段中的“Now，Iappreciatethesilence...”可知，作者后来爱上了美式手语，但是刚开始的时候作者没有发现自己对它的热爱(love)。6．A.meeting B．tripC．story D．task答案：C由空格后面的内容可知，作者开始讲事情的经过了，故选story(故事)。7．A.recorded B．performedC．recited D．discussed答案：B由空格前的“watched(观看)”和后面的“thehandmovements(手部的动作)”以及“whatIsaw(我所看见的)”可知，作者是在观看美式手语俱乐部的成员表演(performed)他们对一首歌的诠释。8．A.idea B．amountC．dream D．reason答案：A根据语境可知，这里指的是无语言交流的想法(idea)。idea与前面的“thehandmovements”并列。9．A.disturbed B．supportedC．embarrassed D．attracted答案：D下文提到作者参加了美式手语俱乐部的一次会议并在下一学期参加了美式手语学习班的课程，由此可以看出，这种手部的动作以及无语言交流的想法把作者吸引(attracted)住了。10．A.end B．pastC．course D．distance答案：B根据“Ihadexperienced”用的时态可知，它指的是作者过去的经历，inthepast“过去”，是固定搭配。故选past。11．A.showing B．actingC．saying D．wanting答案：D由下文中的further以及最后一段中提到作者参加了美式手语学习班的课程可知，这种新颖让作者想要(wanting)了解更多。12．A.exercise B．exploreC．express D．explain答案：B由第一段第一句中的explore可知，此处应填explore，指作者感受到了进一步探索的必要。13．A.print B．writeC．sign D．count答案：C因为作者是在学习美式手语(AmericanSignLanguage)，所以他就得学会如何打手势。这里是说那天作者只学会了如何用手势表示(sign)字母表中的字母。14．A.slow B．steadyC．normal D．obvious答案：A由前面的“beingdiscouragedby(对……感到失望)”可知，此处是说作者的进步缓慢(slow)。15．A.chair B．sponsorC．attend D．organize答案：C虽然作者在学美式手语方面进步缓慢，但他还是感到很兴奋，因此他把出席那些会议并尽最大可能多学看作重要的事情。attendameeting“出席会议”，是固定搭配。另外，本段第一句中的“dropinononeofASLclub'smeetings”也给出了提示。16．A.missed B．passedC．gaveup D．registeredfor答案：D后面讲的是课堂上的事情，由此可以推断出接下来的那个学期，作者参加了美式手语学习班的课程。registerfor“注册，登记”，是固定搭配，且符合此处的语境。17．A.prohibited B．welcomedC．ignored D．repeated答案：A由空格前面的“theprofessorwasdeaf”可知，在课堂上是禁止(prohibited)说话的。18．A.Lastly B．ThusC．Instead D．However答案：C由后面主从句谓语动词的结构可知，此处用的是虚拟语气，也就是说所填词表示的是对相反情况的假设，故应选instead(相反)。19．A.required B．causedC．allowed D．expected答案：B相反，如果有任何交谈的话，那会导致学生们学到的更少。causesb.todosth.“导致某人做某事”，是固定搭配，且符合此处的语境。20．A.easy B．popularC．quick D．new答案：D由第三段最后一句中的“thisnewness”可知，对作者来说，这是一种新的(new)交流方法，而不是容易的(easy)、流行的(popular)或迅速的(quick)方法。Ⅱ.阅读理解APeoplefromEastAsiatendtohavemoredifficultythanthosefromEuropeindistinguishingfacialexpressions—andanewreportpublishedonlineinCurrentBiologyexplainswhy.RachaelJackfromUniversityof“WeshowthatEasternersandWesternerslookatdifferentfacefeaturestoreadfacialexpressions，”Jacksaid.“Westernerslookattheeyesandthemouthinequalmeasure,whileEasternersfavortheeyesandignorethemouth.”AccordingtoJackandhiscolleagues,thediscoveryshowsthatcommunicationofhumanemotionsismorecomplexthanpreviouslybelieved.Asaresult,facialexpressionsthathadbeenconsidereduniversallyrecognizablecannotbeusedreliablytoconveyemotionsincross­culturalsituations.Theresearchersstudiedculturaldifferencesintherecognitionoffacialexpressionsbyrecordingthefacialmovementsof13Westernpeopleand13Easternpeoplewhiletheyobservedpicturesofexpressivefacesandputthemintocategories:happy,sad,surprised,fearful,disgusted,orangry.Theycomparedhowaccuratelyparticipantsreadthosefacialexpressionsusingtheirparticulareyemovementstrategies.ItturnedoutthatEasternersfocusedmuchgreaterattentionontheeyesandmadesignificantlymoreerrorsthanWesternersdid.“Theculturaldifferenceineyemovementsthattheyshowisprobablyareflectionofculturaldifferenceinfacialexpressions，”Jacksaid.“OurdatasuggestthatwhileWesternersusethewholefacetoconveyemotions,Easternersusetheeyesmoreandthemouthless.”Inshort,thedatashowthatfacialexpressionsarenotuniversalsignalsofhumanemotions.Fromhereon,examininghowculturalfactorshavediversifiedthesebasicsocialskillswillhelpourunderstandingofhumanemotions.Otherwise,whenitcomestocommunicatingemotionsacrosscultures,EasternersandWesternerswillfindthemselveslostintranslation.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是东方人和西方人在辨别面部表情上的差异。研究发现，西方人更关注整个脸部表情，而东方人更关注眼睛。1．ThediscoveryshowsthatWesterners________.A．payequalattentiontotheeyesandthemouthB．considerfacialexpressionsuniversallyreliableC．observetheeyesandthemouthindifferentwaysD．havemoredifficultyinrecognizingfacialexpressions答案：A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Westernerslookattheeyesandthemouthinequalmeasure”可知选A。2．Whatwerethe26participantsaskedtodointhestudy?A．Tomakeafaceateachother.B．Togettheirfacesimpressive.C．Toclassifysomefacepictures.D．Toobservetheresearchers'faces.答案：C细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Theresearchersstudiedculturaldifferencesintherecognitionoffacialexpressions...whiletheyobservedpicturesofexpressivefacesand...”可知，研究者让这26个人观察面部表情的图片并将它们分类。故选C。3．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“they”inParagraph6referto?A．Theparticipantsinthestudy.B．Theresearchersofthestudy.C．Theerrorsmadeinthestudy.D．Thedatacollectedfromthestudy.答案：A指代判断题。根据上文中的“byrecordingthefacialmovementsof13Westernpeopleand13Easternpeople”可知，they指代参加研究的13个西方人和13个东方人。故选A。4．IncomparisonwithWesterners,Easternersarelikelyto________.A．dotranslationmoresuccessfullyB．studythemouthfrequentlyC．examinetheeyesmoreattentivelyD．readfacialexpressionsmorecorrectly答案：C细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“ItturnedoutthatEasternersfocusedmuchgreaterattentionontheeyes”可知，东方人观察面部表情时，更关注眼睛。故选C。BYourbestfriendcanprobablytellwhenyou'reinabadmood.Yourdogusuallyknowswhenyoufeellikeplayingball.Nowscientistssaythathorsesalsocanrecognizehumanemotions.ResearchersattheUniversityofSussexinEnglandpublishedanarticleaboutastudytheyran.Itfoundthathorsescantellwhenapersonishappyorangrybasedonreadingfacialexpressions.Theonlyotheranimalsknowntohavethisabilityaredogs.Itwasdonewith28horsesoverthecourseofayear.Thehorseswereshownphotosofapersonwithhappyorangryexpressions.Whenviewingtheangryfaces,thehorses'heartratesshotupmorequicklythanwhentheanimalslookedatthehappyfaces.Thehorsesalsoturnedtheirheadstolookatangryfaceswiththeirlefteye—asignthattheyrecognizedtheexpressionasanegativeone.Manyanimalspositiontheirheadstoviewnegativeeventswiththeirlefteye,whichisconnectedtothepartofthebrainthatprocessesthreateningevents.Thesereactionstothephotosshowedthatthehorsescouldreadthedifferentexpressionscorrectly.AmySmith,whoco­ledthestudy,wasn'tsurprisedtolearnthathorsescanreadhumanfacialexpressions.Peopleandhorseshavebeenworkingtogetherforabout6,000years,eversincehumansbegandomesticating(驯养)theanimalstohelpwithtransportationandfarming.It'spossiblethathorsesdevelopedtheabilitytorecognizehumanemotionssotheycouldsurviveamongpeople.Asmilinghumanismorelikelytobefriendlyandgivethemfood.However,anangryhumanismorelikelytobemeantothem.Ifhorsescanunderstandahuman'semotions,they'llknowwhentheyshouldapproachorstayaway.“We'realsointerestedinwhetherornothorsescanrecognizehumanemotionsthroughourvoicesandbodypostures.Ournextexperimentwilllookintothis,sothatwecangettoknowmoreaboutthecloserelationshipsbetweenhumansandhorses，”saysSmith.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。一项研究表明：马和狗一样也能辨别人类的脸部表情，从而读懂人类的情感。5．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“It”inParagraph2referto?A．Thearticle.
