Each one of these different types of ways of municating is obviously different between men and women.Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men; this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely, and more quickly than men. In one study it was found that women spoke for an average of three minutes describing a painting, as opposed to the thirteenminute average it took men to describe it.Men and women also tend to have a very different nonverbal way of municating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. Mens body language is much more reserved when they are talking to women. Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. Men avoid other peoples body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking. All of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom. Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral. After learning about our styles of municating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered municating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”？ The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if theres something there？” would no longer exist.语篇解读：本文主要介绍了男性和女性因性别差异而导致在沟通方式上也有所不同的现象。8What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AThe differences between mens and womens languages.BThe different speed of mens and womens speech.CThe ability of mens and womens spoken language.DThe nonverbal vocabulary of men and women.解析：选B代词指代题。由this承接画线词前的“It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men”可推知，此处的this指代女性比男性说话快的现象，故选B。9In what way do men and women differ according to the third paragraph?ASpeed of understanding.BUnderstanding of speech roles.CPoliteness of munication.DApplication of body language.解析：选D推理判断题。根据第三段的整体内容，尤其是该段第二句“Mens body language is much more reserved when they are talking to women”可推知，本段主要讲的是男性和女性在非语言表达方式上的不同，即肢体语言使用上的差异，故选D。10What is the authors attitude to the differences between mens and womens munication?ACautious. BFavorable.CAmbiguous. DSkeptical.解析：选B观点态度题。根据最后一段的第二、三句可推知，作者对男性和女性在沟通的差异性上持赞成态度，故选B。cautious“谨慎的”；favorable“赞成的”；ambiguous“模棱两可的”；skeptical“怀疑的”。11What is the best title for the text?AWomen, born excellent talkersBMens and womens social rolesCVocabulary and municationDOpposite gender, different language解析：选D标题归纳题。根据第一段的话题导入，并结合全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要讲的是男性和女性因性别差异而导致在沟通方式上也有所不同，故选D。D(2019昆明质检)Bats are the only mammals (哺乳动物) that can fly a long distance, but they have another ability. Many bats live a very long time for an animal of their size. European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to make discoveries aimed at fighting the aging process in human beings.Last week, the group of scientists said they had discovered important biological qualities in some bat species. The group studied bat chromosomes (染色体). The scientists were most interested in structures connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres (端粒), which shorten each time a cell divides. The scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down. They say this is what causes aging.The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouseeared bat generally lived an average of 37 years. The scientists said it had telomeres that did not shorten with age. Another Myotis hold the record for oldest age, reaching 41 years. The scientists findings suggest that these bats cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres. This, they said, helps guard against the aging process.Based on its body size, a bat like the greater mouseeared bat would be expected to live four years. But, these mammals have been found to live nearly 10 times longer than that. The scientists found that only 19 species of mammals live longer than humans when their body size is considered. 18 of these are bats. The only exception is an unusual African rat.语篇解读：本文是一篇研究性实验报告。欧洲研究人员通过研究蝙蝠了解了它们长寿的原因。12What decides bats aging process according to the text?AThe length of telomeres.BThe body size of the bat.CThe types of chromosomes.DThe building of cells.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They are called telomeres (端粒), which shorten each time a cell divides. The scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down. They say this is what causes aging”可知，端粒的长度决定了蝙蝠变老的过程。故选A。13How long does a greater mouseeared bat generally live?A19 years. B37 years.C41 years. D60 years.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Of these animals, the greater mouseeared bat generally lived an average of 37 years”可知，在这些动物中，通常大鼠耳蝠的平均寿命为37岁。故选B。14We can learn from the text that _.Athe scientists have studied bats for more than six decadesB19 kinds of bats could live longer than humansCthe bats studied in the research are of the same speciesDresearchers focus on finding out why humans live long解析：选A推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years”可知，欧洲的研究人员研究了四种蝙蝠中的493只蝙蝠。该组研究人员使用了超过60年时间收集的信息。故可推断出选项A的表述正确。15In which column of a magazine can you read the text?ALifestyle. BBusiness.CScience. DFashion.解析：选C文章出处题。本文是对蝙蝠长寿原因的探究并且研究人员都是科学家，所以应该是在杂志中科研方面的专栏，所以选项C正确。.阅读七选五(2019东北三省四市模拟)Does your mood change with the seasons?Some people find that when the temperature goes down, so do their spirits. _16_ They eat more and gain weight.
