【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Welcome to your future life!
You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever. Many people of your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you're not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging (抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!
You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” contain particles(粒子) much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change clothes' color or pattern.
You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn't drink that!” Your fridge has read the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.
It's time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way. You can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.
So will all these things come true? “For new technology to succeed,” says scientist Andrew Zolli, “it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example. What will be the next?
(1)We can learn from the text that in the future ___________.
A.people will never get old
B.everyone will look the same
C.red will be the most popular color
D.clothes will be able to change their pattern
(2)What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A.Milk will be harmful to health.
B.More drinks will be available for sale.
C.Food in the grocery store will carry electronic information.
D.Milk in the grocery store will stay fresh much longer.
(3)Which of the following is mentioned in the text?
A.Cars will be able to drive automatically.
B.Fridges will know what people need.
C.Nothing can replace the Internet.
D.Jacked sleeves can be used as a guide.
(4)What is the text mainly about?
A.Food and clothing in 2035.
B.Future technology in everyday life.
C.Medical treatments of the future.
D.The reason for the success of new technology.

【答案】
(1)D
(2)C
(3)A
(4)B
【解析】本文是一片科技小短文,主要暢想了隨著科學(xué)技術(shù)廣泛運用于人類生活,未來30-50年人們生活所發(fā)生的一系列變化。

(2)C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)本文的第四段的最后一句話In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.進行推斷出店里的食物里都有這樣提醒人們食品新鮮程度的芯片。故C正確。

(3)A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的第五段第二句In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go.可知在2035年,汽車都可以自動駕駛,不再需要司機。故A正確。

(4)B 主旨大意題。本文講述的是新的科學(xué)技術(shù)廣泛運用于人類生活帶來的人們在的衣食住行等各方面的巨大變化,AC項屬于文章中的部分內(nèi)容,D項與文章內(nèi)容無關(guān)。故B正確。

【題目】It’s surprising how much simple movements of the body can affect the way we think. Using expansive gestures with open arms makes us feel more powerful, crossing your arms makes you more determined and lying down can bring more insights(領(lǐng)悟).

So if moving the body can have these effects, what about the clothes we wear? We’re all well aware of how dressing up in different ways can make us feel more attractive, sporty or professional, depending on the clothes we wear, but can the clothes actually change cognitive (認知的)performance or is it just a feeling?

Adam and Galinsky tested the effect of simply wearing a white lab coat on people’s powers of attention. The idea is that white coats are associated with scientists, who are in turn though to have close attention to detail.

What they found was that people wearing white coats performed better than those who weren’t. Indeed, they made only half as many errors as those wearing their own clothes on the Stroop Test( one way of measuring attention). The researchers call the effect “enclothed cognition,” suggesting that all manner of different clothes probably affect our cognition in many different ways.

This opens the way for all sorts of clothes-based experiments. Is the writer who wears a fedora more creative? Is the psychologist wearing little round glasses and smoking a cigar more insightful? Does a chef’s hat make the resultant food taste better?

From now on I will only be editing articles for PsyBlog while wearing a white coat to help keep the typing error count low. Hopefully you will be doing your part by reading PsyBlog in a cap and gown.(學(xué)位服).

1What is the main idea of the text?

A. Body movements change the way people think

B. How people dress has an influence on their feelings

C. What people wear can affect their cognitive performance

D. People doing different jobs should wear different clothes

2Adam and Galinsky’s experiment tested the effect of clothes on their wearers’___________.

A. insights B. movements

C. attention D. appearance

3How does the author sound in the last paragraph?

A. Academic B. Humorous

C. Formal D. Hopeful

【題目】How to keep a journal

Keeping a journal can be a way of giving your feelings an outlet like no other.1But it can be helpful to read suggestions for making the most of your journal,as well as some ideas about getting one started.

Find a journal medium that's perfect for you.2Both methods have advantages and drawbacks,so you'll need to weigh up what works best for you.For example,a paper based journal can be taken anywhere,never needs electricity.However,typing can be faster and easier in the electronic format.

Decide what kind of journal you'd like to keep.You could simply use your journal to write down all the thoughts that come to you at any particular time,randomly,or you could make your journal more focused on a specific theme to draw out something that you're trying to develop more of in your life.3

Find sources of inspiration.It's often easiest to start with your current feelings.4There are no rules at all about journal writing and you may find that your starting points vary every time you begin a new entry.Sometimes it is easier to begin with a narrative about something that happened to you during the day.Writing down the facts and events can open up a whole stream of consciousness as you're writing.

5Think about what things have become clearer to you from one journal entry to the next,and think about what hopes and dreams once written in your journal have now turned into reality.Use your journal to assess your life's journey.

A.Write down your feelings on paper and see where this takes you next.

B.Reflect over what you've written now and then.

C.Keep in mind that a journal is not about using a fancy book.

D.Decide how you want to keep your journal,either on paper or in electronic form.

E.Journal writing is a personal journey,determined wholly by your own thoughts.

F.It's fun to glue in little things of your life,like pictures you took of a breathtaking sunset.

G.And there is nothing saying that you can't keep both a random and a specific journal at the same time!
