解析
试题分析：人和动物一样都是靠视觉来识别食物的，但有时人们也会因食物的色、香、味来判断对一种食物的喜好。不过出于对健康情况的考虑，人们应该多吃一些对健康有好处的食物，而不能凭自己的喜好。在本文中作者通过人与动物的对比，提出人们要选择正确的食物。
小题1:C名词辨析。A.男人；B. 孩子们；C. 人类；D.成年人。根据后句When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know…..可知作者指人也像动物一样能认出可以吃的食物，在此处是泛指与动物相对的人类，其他选项过于片面，故答案选C。
小题2:B名词辨析。 A. 器官；B. 感官；C. 部分；D.意思。从下文because they do not look, smell or taste very nice.说明了人可以通过看、闻、尝等来决定对食物的喜好，而且通过other一词也可以推测出此处指和“看”一样的感官，答案选B。
小题3:C动词辨析。 A. 憎恨；B.买；C.喜欢 ；D. 假想。通过下文中的对比句子You may dislike some types of food because….可以推断此处指人们因为味道而喜欢某种食物，答案选C。
小题4:D动词辨析。 A. 吸收；B. 吃喝；C. 接触；D. 尝起来。根据or前面内容smelt good可以判断此处指一种感官，而且四个选项中只有taste是系动词，后面可以跟形容词做表语，故答案选D。
小题5:D名词辨析。 A. 生物；B. 哺乳动物；C. 人们 ； D. 动物。根据下文解释内容A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.可知此处指的是动物，答案选D。
小题6:A形容词辨析。A. 不同的；B. 稀罕的；C. 相似的；D. 独特的。让步状语从句和主句内容存在转折关系，所以根据后句中的only one type可以判断此处指许多不同种类的食物，答案选A。
小题7:B形容词辨析。A. 典型性的；B. 特指的；C. 特殊的 ；D. 异常的。从常识可知大熊猫是只吃竹子这一种食物的，particular“专指的，特指的”强调单一性，答案选B。
小题8:C名词辨析。 A.食物； B. 一顿饭； C. 选择；D. 饮食。根据语境可以判断即使有的动物给它们多种食物，他们也只是吃其中的某一种，故答案选C。
小题9:B名词辨析。 A.花；B蔬菜；C. 水果；D. 枝条。上文提到了the leaves of a cabbage，然后根据后句中的other可以判断此处指和cabbage一样的蔬菜，答案选B。
小题10:A形容词辨析。A.多样的；B. 有创造力的 ；C. 选取的；D. 营养的。上文介绍了许多以单一食物为食的动物，根据however表示的转折意味可以判处此处指多种食物，答案选A。
小题11:C名词辨析。 A. 鱼；B. 水果；C. 饮食；D. 昆虫。由上文内容However, most animals have a more diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits.可以判断此处指这些动物所吃的食物，答案选C，其他选项内容片面。
小题12:C名词辨析。 A.动物；B. 中国人；C. 人类；D. 外国人。从下文内容We often eat food because we like it…..等可知本段讲述的是人类的饮食，故答案选C。
小题13:B形容词辨析。A. 有效的；B. 有益的；C. 美味的；D. 有吸引力的。根据上下文内容可知人们只是凭喜好去吃某种东西，而很少从食物对人的益处、好处方面去考虑，故答案选B。
小题14:A名词辨析。A. 糖；B. 尼古丁；C. 纤维物质；D. 酒精。根据后句内容This makes them overweight…..以及生活常识可知在提供的四个选项中只有A选项“糖”才会使人发胖，答案选A。
小题15:A名词辨析。A. 产品 ；B.附件；C.商品；D. 捐款。从后面列举的食物“such as butter”可以判断此处指像奶油这样的动物产品，故A选项正确。 |

We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. This article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech.
You have to give a speech, and you’re terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结巴) over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, it’s over. I’m just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”
Cheer up! It doesn’t have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion(场合)? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Just remember: be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.
If you follow these simple steps, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens.
小题1:The main idea of this article is that .| A．you can improve your speaking ability | | B．a poor speaker can never change | | C．you should always make a short speech | | D．it is hard to make a speech |

小题4:The title for this passage may be “ ”.| A．Do Not Make a Long Speech | | B．How to Give a Good Speech | | C．How to Prepare for a Speech | | D．Try to Enjoy a Speech |

The secret in re-remembering is to allow the full power of your memory to flow freely without “trying” to remember any one specific (特定的) thing.
I recently sat down to a relaxed and enjoyable dinner with some friends. At the beginning of the meal, a friend told us that his car had just been broken into and his briefcase (公文包) had been stolen. He was frustrated (懊恼的) because his diary and a number of other items important to him were in the briefcase. He said he could remember only four items that were in his stolen briefcase, that he knew there were many more, that he had to give a full report to the police within two hours, and that the more he tried to remember the more blocked he became.
Several of us at the table who were familiar with Memory Principles (规则) then took him through the following exercise; instead of continuing to allow him to think of what he could not remember, we asked him when he had last had his briefcase open. It turned out that it was at the office just before he left work, at which point he suddenly remembered that he had put two important magazine articles in the briefcase. We then asked him when he had last had the briefcase open before leaving home for work. It turned out to have been the night before, and he remembered having put in two more articles as well as a tape recorder, in preparation for the following morning. Finally we asked him to describe the inner (内部的) design of his briefcase, and as he went through a detailed description, he remembered pens, pencils, letters and a number of other items that he had completely “forgotten” before.
Within 20 minutes, he remembered 18 additional items. The secret is to “forget about” whatever you are trying to remember and “relive” all experiences that connect in any way with the item you are trying to remember. This method works at once almost in all cases, and takes the form of a created Mind Map around the “missing” center.
This memory method, like the others, improves your memory as well as your creativity, and in addition gives you confidence when you realize that, no matter what you have forgotten, there is still a chance to solve any memory mystery (谜团)!
小题1:Which of the following shows how the man remembered the items according to the passage?
小题2:What does the underlined word “relive” mean in the passage? | A．go through again | B．get out of | C．get used to again | D．pay attention to |
小题3:What can be the best title for the passage?| A．Forgetting — You can never really forget | | B．Drawing — The better way to remember things | | C．Re-remembering — Remember what you have forgotten | | D．Replacing — Forgetting something instead of remembering |

Someday a stranger will read your email without your permission or scan the website you have visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.
In fact, it is likely that some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without permission? It might be a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen-----the 21st century is the equal of being caught naked.
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy and that it is important to reveal yourself to friends, families and lovers at appropriate time and places. But now few boundaries remain. The information you leave everywhere makes it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. Believe it or not, we live in a world where you simply can’t keep a secret. The key question is: does that matter?
When you ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it.
But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny part of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths(收费站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few refuse to offer personal information like Social Security numbers to get supermarket loyalty cards.
But privacy (隐私) does matter—at least sometimes. It is like health: when you have it, you don’t notice it. Only when it is gone do you wish you had done more to protect it.
小题1:What does the underlined sentence in Para 2 mean?| A．People’s personal information is easily accessed without their knowing it. | | B．In the 21st century people try every means to look into others’ secrets. | | C．People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age. | | D．Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology. |
小题2:Which of the statements will the psychologists probably agree with?| A．Friends should open their hearts to each other. | | B．Friends should always be faithful to each other. | | C．There should be a distance even between friends. | | D．The closer they are, the deeper their friendship is. |
小题3:In the last paragraph but one, the EZ-Pass system and Social Security numbers are used as evidence to show_________.| A．Americans talk a lot but do little about privacy protection | | B．Americans use various loyalty cards for business. | | C．Americans rely more and more on electronic devices. | | D．Americans change behaviors that might disclose their identity. |
小题4:Which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage?| A．Privacy and Health | B．Privacy Is Getting Lost. | | C．Boundary and Friendship | D．Cherish What You Have |
