7.Reseachers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately juage 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes."Shoes convey useful information about their wearers,"the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality.
Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style,cost,color and condition of someone's shoes.In the study,63 University of Kansas researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants.Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes,and then filled out a personality questionnaire.
Some of the results were expected:People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes,and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people.However,some of the more specific results are strange enough.For example,"practical and functional''shoes were generally worn by more"pleasant"people,while ankle boots were more linked with‘‘a(chǎn)ggressive''personalities.The strangest of all may be that those who wore‘‘uncomfortable looking"shoes tend to have"calm"personalities.And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take extreme care of them,you may suffer from"attachment anxiety",spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance.There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal(主張變革的)types wearing"shabbier and less expensire"shoes.
The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personalities,but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities.

分析 本文是一篇說(shuō)明文.主要介紹了一項(xiàng)新的調(diào)查結(jié)果,研究表明根據(jù)一個(gè)人的鞋子可以判斷一個(gè)人,甚至是陌生人的性格,準(zhǔn)確率能達(dá)到90%.研究人員指出有些研究結(jié)果是在意料之內(nèi)的,而有些結(jié)果是出乎人們意料的.比如穿實(shí)用性鞋子的人一般具有令人愉快的性格,而穿及踝短靴的人卻往往具有攻擊性的性格.

解答 61.C      主旨大意題.根據(jù)文章第一段中"Shoes convey useful information about their wearers",然后對(duì)調(diào)查活動(dòng)進(jìn)行詳細(xì)的介紹,最后一段"their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities"通過(guò)進(jìn)一步印證中心,因此文章主要講述的是人們所穿的鞋子能反映出人的性格,故選C.
62.A      細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段"researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants"以及"Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes"可知,參與調(diào)查的人們要求提供他們鞋子的照片,故選A.
63.C      細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第三段"However,some of the more specific results are strange enough.For example…..ankle boots were more linked with‘‘a(chǎn)ggressive''personalities."可知,穿及踝短靴的人更具有攻擊性是出乎人們意料的,故選C.
64.B     細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第三段"…..you may suffer from"attachment anxiety",spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance."可知,患有'attachment anxiety‘的人們,會(huì)更擔(dān)心他們的外表,故選B.
65.A     推理判斷題.縱觀全文,講述的是根據(jù)鞋子來(lái)判斷人性格的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查,文章開(kāi)頭提出中心,然后在下文進(jìn)行詳細(xì)介紹,由此可知,作者的寫(xiě)作目的是給人們介紹一項(xiàng)新的調(diào)查結(jié)果,故選A.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 解答細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí),一個(gè)常用的方法就是運(yùn)用定位法,即根據(jù)題干和選項(xiàng)中的關(guān)鍵詞從原文中找到相關(guān)的句子,與選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行比較從而確定答案;推理判斷題既要求學(xué)生透過(guò)文章表面文字信息推測(cè)文章隱含意思,又要求學(xué)生對(duì)作者的態(tài)度、意圖及文章細(xì)節(jié)的發(fā)展作正確的推理判斷,力求從作者的角度去考慮,不要固守自己的看法或觀點(diǎn).

Then she pulls out a picture of a special fishing rod she has designed."There is a camera on the hook,"she explains,"and the screen is on the handle,and it shows you if you've caught a fish or not."
Helen doesn't want to go to university.She keeps her pink-and-cream bedroom tidy.Paula is amazed and a bit confused by her daughter."Everything has to be in a certain order,"Paula says."Her brothers and sisters go with the flow,but with Helen,it's‘What time will that be happening?'or‘Where am I being picked up from today?'"

12.A Special Appointment
Years ago I moved to Woodland Hills to take a job in a small hospital's emergency department.No one wanted to work on Christmas Eve,so the shift (輪班) went to me.I kissed my family goodbye and went off to spend the night in the hospital.It was a thankless job.
At 9pm,the ambulance brought in a man in his 60s who was having a heart attack.His face was pale,and he was frightened.The whole night I did my best to save his life.Before I left in the morning to spend Christmas with my family,I stopped by to see how he was doing.It was still tough,but he had survived the night and was sleeping.
The following year I got Christmas Eve duty again.At 9pm sharp,the ward clerk told me there was a couple who wanted to speak with me.When I approached them,the man introduced himself as Mr.Lee and said,"You probably don't remember me,but last Christmas Eve you saved my life.Thank you for the year you gave me."He and his wife hugged me,handed me a small gift,and left.

The last year I saw him,he brought me a gift.I carefully opened the package and found a crystal (水晶) bell inside.It was engraved (鐫刻) with a single word:Friendship.Now,my family,friends and I ring that bell every Christmas Eve at exactly 9pm and offer our best wishes to the man who we won't forget.
