D.BusinessWeek.【答案】12.C13.A14.D15.B【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项新的研究表明，蘑菇能够通过电信号交流沟通。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Althoughmushroomsmaynotseemverytalkativeeither,anewstudyshowselectricalsignalstravellingthroughtheirmyceliumnetworkcouldhelptheorganismcommunicate.(虽然蘑菇看起来也不太会说话，但一项新的研究表明，通过菌丝体网络传播的电信号可以帮助生物体交流)”可知，根据这项研究，蘑菇是通过电信号交流的。故选C项。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“Whensignalactivityincreases,itcreatescomplicatedpatternsthatmayfunctionlikewordsinhumanspeech.(当信号活动增加时，它会产生复杂的模式，其功能可能类似于人类语言中的单词)”和第三段中“Itworkslikenervecellsthatsendsignalstootherpartsofthehumanbody.(它的工作原理类似于神经细胞，将信号发送到人体的其他部位)”以及倒数第二段中“Mushrooms’wordsarealsosimilarinlengthtohumanwords.(蘑菇的单词在长度上也与人类单词相似)”可推知，关于蘑菇的交流，这些研究表明了它在几个方面与人类语言相似。故选A项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Thoughcomparingthemushroom’selectricalsignalstohumanspeechisinterestingandnotable,someresearchersaredoubtful.“Thoughinteresting,theinterpretationaslanguageseemssomewhatoverenthusiasticandrequiresmoreresearch.”saysDanBebberfromtheUniversityofExeter.(尽管将蘑菇的电信号与人类语言进行比较是有趣而引人注目的，但一些研究人员对此表示怀疑。埃克塞特大学的丹·贝伯(DanBebber)说：“虽然很有趣，但把它解释为语言似乎有些过于热情，需要更多的研究。”)”可推知，丹·贝伯认为把它解释为语言是不够有说服力的。故选D项。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中“Althoughmushroomsmaynotseemverytalkativeeither,anewstudyshowselectricalsignalstravellingthroughtheirmyceliumnetworkcouldhelptheorganismcommunicate.(虽然蘑菇看起来也不太会说话，但一项新的研究表明，通过菌丝体网络传播的电信号可以帮助生物体交流)”以及最后一段“Thoughcomparingthemushroom’selectricalsignalstohumanspeechisinterestingandnotable,someresearchersaredoubtful.“Thoughinteresting,theinterpretationaslanguageseemssomewhatoverenthusiasticandrequiresmoreresearch.”saysDanBebberfromtheUniversityofExeter.(尽管将蘑菇的电信号与人类语言进行比较是有趣而引人注目的，但一些研究人员对此表示怀疑。埃克塞特大学的丹·贝伯(DanBebber)说：“虽然很有趣，但把它解释为语言似乎有些过于热情，需要更多的研究。”)”可知，本文主要讲述了一项新的研究，蘑菇能够通过电信号交流沟通，是和科学有关。所以可推知能在“ScienceWorld”上看到本文。故选B项。第二节：根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。EfficientwaystoimproveyourspeechFinditdifficulttomakeawonderfulspeechinpublic?___16___UsemorefacialexpressionsOnepsychologistfeelsthatourfacialexpressionisresponsiblemorethananythingelsefortheimpressionothershaveofus.Asmileinwhichtheeyesparticipateisextremelycommunicative.___17___Peopletendtomirroryourexpression,sotrytoshowhowyoufeelaboutatopicoranideathroughyourfacialexpression.Getridofyourinnerfear___18___Thewaytohandleitistoputittoworkforyou,getintoaction,asShakespeareobserved,actioncuresfear.Thefirstistoadmitit.Dothethingyoufearanditwillbethedeathoffearitself.Anothersimpleaidatthelastminutebeforeyoubegin,istotakeafewdeepbreaths.Thiswillhelpgetthebutterfliesinformationandalsokeepyourvoiceundercontrol.PolishyourvoiceOurvoiceisthemaininstrumentwepossessforcommunicatingwithpeople.Soinvestinataperecorder,practiceyourspeechbyspeakingitintothemicrophoneandthenlistentoit.Youcanevenhaveothersjoinintheevaluationofyourstrongpointsandyourweaknessesorfaultsaswell.Simplyreadinganewspaper,amagazineorstoriestoyourchildrenoutloudcanhelp.___19___StrengthenyourmemoryPsychologiststellusthatmostindividualsdon’tuseabovetenpercentoftheirinherentcapacityformemory.Howtoenhancethepowerofmemory?First,haveaburningdesiretoremember.It’sdifficulttorecallanythingwithoutwantingtodoso.___20___Oursuccessdependsgreatlyonourabilitytoconcentrate.Thenextprincipleisrepetition,welearnedmanythingsinschoolbyrepetition.A.Stepnumbertwoisconcentration.B.Afrownoftenbringsthesamethinginreturn.C.Herearesomeefficientwaystoimproveyourspeech.D.Youremphasis,pausing,paceandevenpitchcanimprove.E.Readingaloudcannotnecessarilyhelpyoudevelopapersonalstyle.F.Themoreassociationsyoumakewiththebrain,theeasieritbecomes.G.It’snaturaltohavesometensionwhenyouappearbeforeanaudience.【答案】16.C17.B18.G19.D20.A【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四种能够提高演讲能力的有效方法：使用更多的面部表情；摆脱内心的恐惧；改善说话的声音；加强记忆。【16题详解】上文“Finditdifficulttomakeawonderfulspeechinpublic?(觉得在公共场合发表精彩演讲很难吗？)”引出话题“演讲很难”；同时结合后文的四个小标题“Usemorefacialexpressions(使用更多的面部表情)”、“Getridofyourinnerfear(摆脱内心的恐惧)”、“Polishyourvoice(改善说话的声音)”和“Strengthenyourmemory(加强记忆)”可知，后文在讲述提高演讲的几种具体方法，故此处空格的内容应起到承上启下的作用，C选项“Herearesomeefficientwaystoimproveyourspeech.(以下是一些提高演讲水平的有效方法。)”符合语境。故选C。【17题详解】由第二段的小标题“Usemorefacialexpressions(使用更多的面部表情)”、上文“Asmileinwhichtheeyesparticipateisextremelycommunicative.(蕴含眼神的微笑非常具有交流性。)”和后文“Peopletendtomirroryourexpression,sotrytoshowhowyoufeelaboutatopicoranideathroughyourfacialexpression.(人们倾向于表达和你一样的表情，所以试着通过你的面部表情来表达你对某个话题或想法的感觉。)”可知，本段主要讲述面部表情在演讲中的重要性。B选项“Afrownoftenbringsthesamethinginreturn.(皱眉往往也会带来同样的回报。)”中的“Afrown”也是面部表情，并与上文的“Asmile”相对应，符合语境。故选B。【18题详解】由第三段的小标题“Getridofyourinnerfear(摆脱内心的恐惧)”和后文“Thewaytohandleitistoputittoworkforyou,getintoaction,asShakespeareobserved,actioncuresfear.(处理它的方法是让它为你工作，付诸行动，正如莎士比亚所说，行动可以治愈恐惧。)”可知，此段主要讲述如何摆脱内心的恐惧。G选项“It’snaturaltohavesometensionwhenyouappearbeforeanaudience.(当你出现在观众面前时，很自然会有一些紧张。)”中的tension就是后文中it所指代的内容，与fear表达的意思一致，放在句首用于引出后文，符合语境。故选G。【19题详解】由第四段小标题“Polishyourvoice(改善说话的声音)”和上文“Ourvoiceisthemaininstrumentwepossessforcommunicatingwithpeople.(我们的声音是我们与人交流的主要工具。)”与“Simplyreadinganewspaper,amagazineorstoriestoyourchildrenoutloudcanhelp.(只需大声给孩子读报纸、杂志或故事就可以了。)”可知，本段主要讲的是如何改善说话的声音，D选项“Youremphasis,pausing,paceandevenpitchcanimprove.(你的重点、停顿、速度甚至音高都可以提高。)”承接上文，表示通过前文的给孩子大声读报纸、讲故事等方式可以提高说话的重点、停顿等，符合语境。故选D。【20题详解】由第五段小标题“Strengthenyourmemory(加强记忆)”和上文“First,haveaburningdesiretoremember.It’sdifficulttorecallanythingwithoutwantingtodoso.(首先，有一种强烈的记忆欲望。如果没有记忆的欲望那回忆东西是很难的。)”可知，本段主要讲述如何加强记忆，上文中的First表示第一点，又因后文“Oursuccessdependsgreatlyonourabilitytoconcentrate.(我们的成功很大程度上取决于我们的专注能力。)”与上文表述内容不一致，说明此处讲的是另外一点，A选项“Stepnumbertwoisconcentration.(第二步就是专心致志。)”承接上文，Stepnumbertwo是First的顺延，同时concentration又与后文中的concentrate相对应，符合语境。故选A。第三部分：语言运用第一节：完形填空阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卷上将该选项标号涂黑。Myhighschoollifewasaveryfulfillingone.Apartfromstudyinginclass,Igotapart-timejobatalocal___21___shop.Ihopeditwouldbeeasy,andforthemostpart,___22___.Iimaginedmyselfpouringcoffeeandbecomingclosefriendswithmycustomers.ButwhatIhadn’t___23___wasthepeoplewithsomanyordersandthemomentswhenIcouldn’tseemto___24___anyone.Therewasalwaystoomuchsugar,toolittleice,ornotenoughskimmilk.___25___,Ikeptatit.Oneday,oneofmycustomersdroppedin,___26___.Beforeheleft,Ihandedhimabagalongwithhisicedcoffee.Helookedatme___27___becausehehadorderednothingbutthecoffee.Heopenedthebagandsawhisfavoritedoughnut(甜甜圈)Ihad___28___him.Hesmiledandthankedmebefore___29___outintotherain.Thenextevening,hecame.Insteadof____30____something,hehandedmeasinglepinkroseandanote.“Thanksforbeingsosweetand____31____yesterday.Itissonicetomeetsomeonewhoiswarm.Pleasedon’t____32____yourwaysbecauseItrulybelievethatyouwilldobetter.Haveagreatday!”Astimewenton,Idid____33____somecustomersreallyparticular.ButwheneverIfeltcastdown,thatmanandhiskindnesswouldoccurtome.ThenIwould____34____,holdmyheaduphigh,clearmythroatandaskpolitely,“HowcanI____35____you?”21.A.fashion
