1.Theauthorofthispassagetriesto___________.A.throwdoubtsonacommonlyacceptedideaB.explainacommonlyacceptedideaasitisC.givesomeadviceonacommonproblemD.argueagainstacommonbelief

答案解析:答案为B。本题考查文章的写作目的。本文第二段就揭示了为什么男性听不进去女性的话的原因,文章后面的内容对此进行了阐述。故答案为B。

2.Accordingtothenewstudy,mendon'tlistentowomenbecause_________.A.whatwomensayareusuallyboringB.theydon'tcareaboutwhatwomensayC.theycan'tdealwithfemalevoicesD.theyregardfemalevoicesasmusic

答案解析:答案为C。本题为推理题。由第三段的内容可知,男性在听同性的话语的时候只是用了大脑的前面区域;然而听女性的话语的时候,却更费力,因为要使用通常用

来听音乐的那部分的大脑区域。故可推断,男性不听女性的话是因为他们大脑不能非常容易地处理女性的声音。故答案为C。干扰性最强的D选项“他们把女性的声音当成音乐”与文意不符。故错误。3.Theunderlinedsentenceinthefifthparagraphshowsthattheauthoris_______.A.realisticB.humorousC.seriousD.funny答案解析:答案为B。本题为句意推断题。结合第五段的内容,作者以女性的口吻谈到如果她早意识到她是因为“音乐”而被男人倾听,她会为此而感到些许开怀。无论何时,如果她想要一场“讨论”,就会带上自己的乐队,弦号俱全。故可以推断,划线部分的语言显得幽默。

4.Whatdoestheauthorthinkofthefindingofthenewstudy?A.Shethinksitdoubtful.C.Shethinksitneedsfurtherproof.

D.Shethinksitright.

答案解析:答案为A。本题为细节推断题。由倒数第三段首句“Itisdifficultnottobesuspiciousof?”可知,本句话的同义词就是doubtful..故答案为A。5.Theauthorwouldmostprobablyagreethat________.A.menshouldacceptwhatwomensay

B.womenshouldtalklessanddomorehousework

C.howeverbeautifulvoicesmaybe,theywillfinallybecomeboringD.therelationshipbetweenmenandwomenshouldalwaysbeimproving答案解析:答案为C。本题为推理题。从最后一段“Whenyourbeautifultonesarethereallthetime,astheygoabouttheirdailybusiness,youstarttoblendinabittoomuch,untilfinallyyoubecomeakindofbackgroundnoise.”可知,当你美妙的旋律每天都出现在男人日常生活中的时候,最后也会变成背景噪音。故答案为C.

A、B未提及;倒数第二段首句提到了“?mostrelationshipsarelikelytobecomeboring.”D选项与此不符,故错误。

B

Listencarefully,workingpeople,wewouldliketotellyousomethingthatcouldsaveyourprecioustimeandmoney!Bestofall,itisfree!It’s“no”.

B.youneedn’tcareaboutother’sfeelingifyouarehappyC.youareselfishandtreatothersrudely

D.youcandealwithyourbusinessasyouhaveplanned

答案解析:答案为D。本题为细节推理题。由第五、六段可知,对别人说“不”就是对自己说“是”,当在办公室说“不”的时候,你可以看到你桌上的文件很快就完成了。故答案为D。

2.Whenyousay“no”toothersyoushouldsayitina_______.A.secretwayB.politewayC.proudwayD.guiltyway答案解析:答案为B。本题为细节推理题。由第八段“?Iwouldratherhavesomeonegivemealoving‘no’?”的“loving”可以推断,答案为B。

答案解析:答案为A.本题为推理题。结合倒数第五段的内容和该段的最后一句话“?Myadviceistosay‘yes’onlyifyoudon’tmean‘no’.”可知,Watson的总结性意见是如果你不打算对别人说“不”,那就说“是”。故可以推断,说“不”要在合适的时间。故答案为A。

4.Ifapersonsays“no”toeverything,theresultheorshereceivemaybethatheorshe_______.

A.enjoysawonderfullifeB.makesalotofmoney

C.facesdifficultyinlifeD.forgetstosay“yes”intheend答案解析:答案为C。本题为推理题。由最后一段Charles所讲的“Don’tgotoextremes.Don’tfindyourselfsaying‘no’toeverything?”可知,他认为不能凡事都说“不”,不能走极端。故可以推断,如果凡事说“不”,生活就会遇到麻烦。
