said angrily.“I would never have e in if.”It was obvious that his display of honesty was_18_.He thought hed have it allpraise and the higher grade.Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade_19_because all Id acplished was to discourage him from being honest in the future.But I cant see how I could worsen my_20_in grading by undermining(损害)the honesty of all my grades by failing to correct an error.The grade itself would be a dishonest_21_of his knowledge and it would have been_22_to other students.I know_23_reporting an error in ones favor is unusual，but，like_24_too much change，its clearly the right thing to do.For people with real honesty，a good conscience and reputation is_25_enough for the cost of doing the right thing.Perhaps lowering the students grade did_26_him from being honest in the future，but bribing(贿赂)him to be honest so that he does the right thing when its costfree would have_27_him even more.The duty to be honest is about right and wrong，not risks and rewards.16A.apologizing Breplacing Cthanking Dblaming解析教授认为学生非常诚实，因此将分数改了过来，并因此而表示感激(thanking)。答案C17A.lowering Bcorrecting Cchanging

your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when youre doing your holiday shopping online, make sure youre holding a large glass of iced tea.The physical sensation (感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John ABargh.Psychologists have known that one persons perception (感知) of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness.Classic studics by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlows work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal.Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm”， or “cold” is mon to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the studys hypotheses (假设)，handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of“Person A”based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly，” says Bargh.【语篇解读】 最近的心理学研究发现，人们对“温暖”或者“寒冷”的感受可以改变人们的情感。36According to Paragraph 1, a persons emotion may be affected by_.Athe visitors to his officeBthe psychology lessons he hasChis physical feeling of coldnessDthe things he has bought online解析细节理解题。由文章第一段的第三句话可知，温暖的感觉激发温暖的情感，而冷饮在手则会阻止你做出不明智的决定，因此可以说一个人的情感可能会受到冷的感觉的影响。答案B37The author mentions Harlow s experiment to show that_.Aadults should develop social skillsBbabies need warm physical contactCcaregivers should be healthy adultsDmonkeys have social relationships解析细节理解题。在试验中，猴子喜欢去靠近布制的“妈妈”而不喜欢“金属线”做的“妈妈”。这使心理学家们强调养育者应该让孩子们多接触一些令人感觉温暖的东西，以帮助孩子们成长为有正常社交技能的健康的成年人，故B项正确。答案B38In Bargh s experiment, the students were asked to_.Aevaluate someones personalityBwrite down their hypothesesCfill out a personal information formDhold coffee and cold drink alternatively解析细节理解题。由文中倒数第二段中的“After that，the students were asked to rate the personality ofPerson A based on a particular description.”可知选A。在试验中，学生被要求评价某人的性格。答案A39We can infer from the passage that_.Aabstract thinking does not e from physical experiencesBfeelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwideCphysical temperature affects how we see othersDcapable persons are often cold to others解析推理判断题。全文都在论述人们对“温暖”或“寒冷”的感觉可以影响人们对事物的评价。因此，物理温度会影响我们看待他人的方式。因此选C。答案CBChildren start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; theres no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your childrens curiosity(好奇). Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of sevenyearolds to talk about science as a job.The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary(薪水) and whether I liked my job.When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said, “Now that were finished with your lists,_do you have questions of your own about science？” After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why？” This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours. Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical(符合逻辑的), plete and creative answers.Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, dont jump in with “Thats right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it es to encouraging good behavior(行为). But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying “Thats interesting” or “Id never thought of it that way before”， or ing up with more questions or ideas.Never push a child to “Think”. It doesnt make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling them to. Whats more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target(目标) for your disagreement.Lastly, show; dont tell. Reallife impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and theyll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.【语篇解读】 本文阐述了如何激发孩子们对科学的兴趣，以引导孩子们学科学。40. According to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is_.Ato let them see the world aroundBto share the childrens curiosityCto explain difficult phrases about scienceDto supply the children with lab equipment解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段第三句中的.share your childrens curiosity可推知答案为B。答案B41In the last sentence of the first paragraph, the word “lists” could best be replaced by_.Aany questionsBany problemsCquestions from textbooksDany number of questions解析推理判断题。根据文章第一段第六句The children asked me “textbook questions”可推知答案为C。答案C42According to the passage, children can answer questions in a more logical, plete and creative way if adults_.Aask them to answer quicklyBwait for one or two seconds after a questionCtell them to answer the next dayDwait at least for three seconds after a question解析推理判断题。根据文章第四段最后一句When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, plete and creative answers.可推知答案为D。答案D43In which of the following paragraph(s) does the author tell us what to say to encourage children in a science discussion?AThe second and third.BThe fourth and fifth.CThe fifth and sixth. DThe seventh.解析推理判断题。根据问题的内容可在文章的第五、六段找到答案。答案CCBringing up children is hard work, and you are often to blame for any bad behavior of your children. If so, Judith Rich Hams has good news for you. Parents, she argues, have no important longterm effects on the development of the personality of their children. Far more important are their playground friends and neighborhood panions. Ms Harris takes to bits the assumption which has dominated (支配) developmental psychology for almost half a century.Ms Harris attack on the developmentalists “nurture” argument looks likely to reinforce (加强) doubts that the profession was already having. If parents matter, why is it that two adopted children, reared in the same home, are no more similar in personality than two adopted children reared in separate homes? Or that a pair of identical twins, reared in the same home, are no more alike than a pair of identical twins reared in different homes?Difficult as it is to track the precise effects of parental upbringing, it may be harder to measure the exact influence of the peer (同龄人) group in childhood and adolescence. Ms Harris points to how children from immigrant homes soon learn not to speak at school in the way their parents speak. But acquiring a language is surely a skill, rather than a characteristic of the sort developmental psychologists hunt for. Certainly it is different from growing up tensely or relaxedly, or from learning to be honest or hardworking or generous. Easy though it may be to prove that parents have little impact on those qualities, it will be hard to prove that peers have vastly more.Moreover, mum and dad surely cannot be ditched pletely. Young adults may, as Ms Harris argues, be keen to appear like their contemporaries. But even in those early years, parents have the power to open doors: they may initially choose the peers with whom their young associate, and pick that influential neighborhood. Moreover, most people suspect that they e to resemble their parents more in middle age, and peoples childrearing habits may be formed partly by what their parents did. So the balance of influences is probably plicated, as most parents already suspected without being able to demonstrate it scientifically. Even if it turns out that the genes they pass on and the friends their children play with matter as much as affection, discipline and good example，parents are not pletely off the hook.【语篇解读】 “子不教，父之过”，这一传统的观点受到人们的挑战与质疑。Ms Harris研究发现，子女性格的养成，更多地受到他们周围的朋友和邻居的影响。44According to Ms Harris，_.Aparents are to blame for any bad behavior of their childrenBchildrens personality is shaped by their friends and neighborsCnature rather than upbringing has a significant effect on childrens personality developmentDparents will greatly affect the childrens life in the long run解析推理判断题。第一段说“孩子性格更多是受朋友和邻居的影响”。答案B45The word “ditched”(Line 1, Para.4)could best be replaced by_.Aproved BemphasizedCpared Dignored解析词义猜测题。第四段第一句意为，此外，父母的影响肯定不容忽视。答案D46The developmental psychologists think_.Achildren are more influenced by their peersBidentical twins raised in the same home are different in personalityCtwins raised in two separate families are different in personalityDupbringing has a less significant effect on childrens personality development解析推理判断题。根据第二段可知，双胞胎在不同家庭成长，也就会有不同的性格。答案C47According to Paragraph 3, we know that_.Ait is easier for children to gain a language at homeBit is harder to follow the effects of parental upbringingCimmigrant children avoid speaking the same way as their parents at schoolDit is proved that peers have a greater effect on childrens qualities解析细节理解题。文章第三段说移民家庭里的孩子在学校不会像父母一样说话。答案CDIt was only a few weeks after my operation, and I went to Dr.Belts office for a checkup. I still had terrible pain from the scar. As usual, I was taken to an examination room to have my blood drawn, againa terrifying process for me, since Im so frightened of needles.I lay down on the examining table. Ramona entered the room. Her warm sparkling smile was familiar, and stood out in contrast to my fears. Id first seen her in the office a few weeks earlier. She wasnt my nurse on that
