8、e”To see how a persons inborn number sense might be linked to mathematical performance in the classroom,psychologist Justin Halberda and his colleagues from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore,US ran some tests.The scientists asked 64 14yearolds to look at images (影像) of yellow and blue dots that
9、flashed on a computer screen for a fraction (一小部分) of a image contained between 10 and 32 dots that varied in size.Some images contained twice as many blue dots as yellow other images,however,the number of blue and yellow dots was nearly each image,the students were asked to estimate which color had
10、 more dots.The scientists found a wide variation in how well students could pick the color with the most dots.The scientists then looked at the studentsmath scores dating back to that performed best in the image test also scored the highest in standard math same finding held true at the other end of
11、 the spectrum (范围)Students who didnt score well on the image test received lower math scores.The study was the first to show a link between a persons inborn number sense and his or her achievement in formal math training.Does this connection mean that one cannot be good in math if they have a weak n

17、ome to mind:the tall black hat,the bow tie and,of course,the might be surprised to find out that it was an elevenyearold girl who urged Lincoln to grow his famous whiskers.In the fall of 1860,a beardless Abraham Lincoln was running for President of the United States when he received a letter from el
18、evenyearold Grace Bedell of Westfield,New her letter,Grace told him that he should let his whiskers grow because his face was “so thin”She explained that “ladies like whiskers” and that if he grew a beard,“they would ask their husbands to vote” for him.Lincoln responded with the following letter:My

25、过去时态,主句用现在完成时态,指段时间可用一般现在时态。2D此处sound为连系动词,意为“听起来”,后面可用形容词、名词或介词短语作表语。此处省略了主语that或it。3A多个形容词修饰名词时,排列顺序通常是关系最密切的离名词最近。我们平时常用“九字令(限、描、大、形、龄、颜、籍、物、类)”来给名词前的形容词排序。句意为“一位朋友告诉我这儿附近有一家不错的小海鲜餐馆。我们去那儿吃午饭吧,怎么样”?4B本题考查动词ed形式短语作定语。the party与hold之间是被动关系,因此用held。to be held表示未发生;held表示已发生;being held表示正在发生。根据答语“是的,
26、实际上我参加了那次聚会”,可知已发生。5Dexhausted意为“筋疲力尽的”,为形容词作状语,说明主语的特征。句意为“直到她完成所有的工作才筋疲力尽地回到家”。6Asince意为“自从”,表示时间或动作的起点。当since表示从过去的一个时间点延续至说话的现在时,通常要求主句使用现在完成时,而since从句用一般过去时。句意为“你教英语很长时间了吗?”“是的,自从大学毕业至今”。7C本句为“This is序数词time (that)现在完成时”这一句型。句意为“这是你第一次来北京吗?你对这个城市的印象如何”?8D句意为:很抱歉在这样的场合麻烦你回答那么多的问题。考查短语bother 来打扰某
27、人,C项虽也可以用impress sth.,但与句意不符。9B根据题意“除了百万富翁外谁能付得起钱买这么贵的汽车呢?”可知“买得起,付得起”应用afford,另外,四个词中只有afford可直接跟不定式。10Ban approach to.意为“的方法”,其中to为介词,后跟名词、代词或动名词。11B本题中it是形式主语,真正的主语是whether从句;remain意为“有待于,尚待于,”当此意讲时,后需接不定式的被动语态做表语。12B句意为:作为一个销售员,在工作中我会接触到各种各样的人。come into contact with 。contract合同,attack袭击,攻击,attra
28、ct吸引,均不和come into搭配,而且与题意不符。13B句意为:这是个法律事件,我认为你应该进行专业咨询(professional advice)。occupational职业的;educational教育的;laborious辛苦的。14A句意为:再有10分钟我就可以完成了。another用在数词前表示“再,又”;B、C两项中other与more要用在数词后。15D句意为:生活在纽约确实不易,因为一套单元房的租金就很高。rent只能用high,low等修饰。.阅读理解【语篇解读】本文告诉我们,人们的数学能力并不都能够在课堂中习得,有些是与生俱来的。心理学家Justin Halberda
29、和他的同事对此进行了研究。1B正误判断题。从文章倒数第二段可知B项表述不正确。2C事实细节题。从第三段第一句可知,Justin Halberda等人的研究目的就是要知道“一个人天生的数字感是否跟课堂上的数学成绩有关系”,所以答案选C。3A词义猜测题。从最后一段可知,虽然科学家还在研究一个人的“数字感”与数学成绩的关联性,但有一点是明确的:多做数学作业肯定能增加成功的机会。由语境可知,boost在这里表示“提高,增加”。4B从最后一段可知,有一点是明确的:多做数学作业肯定能增加成功的机会。5AJustin Halberda他们的研究发现,那些在测试中表现好的学生,在数学考试中同样表现优异。6B细
30、节理解题。由文章第二段中的In her letter,Grace told him that he should let his whiskers grow because his face was “so thin”可知,Grace建议林肯留胡子是因为留了胡子能使他的脸看起来不那么瘦。由此可以推断Grace提建议是为了使林肯的外在形象更好。7D细节理解题。由林肯信中的一句话I regret the necessity of saying I have no daughters.可知,林肯觉得没有女儿是个遗憾。8C细节理解题。从文章内容可知,Grace写信建议林肯留胡子时,他没有采纳,但是后来当选总统后改变了主意决定留胡子,并在去华盛顿的途中与Grace见面了,由此可知他心里一直记着小女孩的建议。9A推理判断题。文章最后一段提到Grace连准备送给林肯的花都忘了送出,由此可以推断,她见到林肯时很紧张。10B推断理解题。从文中可知林肯的形象是高的黑色帽子、蝴蝶结领结和胡须,故图片B为正确答案。
