【题目】One day, a tramp (流浪汉) was sleeping on a park bench, satisfied with the afternoon sunshine. A couple walked by. The man stopped, woke the tramp up, and asked him, “Excuse me. _【1】__you have the time?” the tramp replied, “I’m sorry---I don’t have a watch, so I don’t know the time.” The man apologized and walked away with his wife.

The tramp lay down and went back to sleep. Just then, a woman, __2____ was out walking her dog, shook the tramp’s shoulder until he woke up, _3__said, “I’m sorry to trouble you, but do you happen to know the time?” The tramp was a little annoyed at being woken up again, but he politely told the woman he didn’t have a watch and had no idea __4____ the time. After the woman left, an idea occurred to the tramp. He opened his bag and took out a pen and a piece of paper. He wrote down with all his strength, “I do not have a watch. I do not know the time.” He then hung the paper round his neck thinking that nobody would hold him back in his sleep. Fifteen minutes 5___, a policeman noticed the tramp and the sign around his neck. Out of a sense of responsibility, he woke the tramp up and said, “It’s 2:30 p.m.”

【答案】

【1】Do

2who

3and

4of

5later

【解析】

试题分析:

【1】Do。这整句话意思是:“打扰一下,请问你知道时间吗?”这句话是一个一般疑问句,再结合问句的另一半you have the time ,可此处借用助动词Do来提问。故填Do。

2who。这整句话的意思是:“不久后,一个带着她的狗一起散步的女人路过,摇了摇流浪汉的肩膀直到他醒。”此句话主谓宾很完整,中间部分___was out walking her dog只能作为一个定语从句,起修饰a woman 的作用,定语从句中修饰人并且在从句中做主语用who,故填who。

3and。空白处前后两句话均是完整的,外出遛狗的女人将流浪汉弄醒以后,是准备向他询问时间的,是先摇醒,然后才发起询问这个动作,这中间是顺承的关系,因此用连词and,表示一个动作完成以后继续另外一个动作,故填and。

4of。这整句话的意思是“虽然这个流浪汉被再次弄醒,感到很恼火,但是他依然很礼貌地回答这个女人说他没有手表,所以不知道时间。”本考查的是词组have no idea of ,这是固定词组,“不知道......”的意思,故填of。

5later。这句话的意思是:“十五分钟以后,一位警察发现了流浪汉旁边的那个写字的那张纸,警察先生处于内心的责任感,将流浪汉弄醒了,并告诉他现在的时间是下午2点半。”流浪汉不想被打扰,因此写字表明自己不知道时间,根据上下文意思,可知,他再次被打扰是在十五分钟以后。故填later。

【题目】

Everyone becomes a little more forgetful as they get older, but men's minds decline more than women's, according to the results of a worldwide survey.

Certain differences seem to be inherent in male and female brains: Men are better at maintaining and dealing with mental images (useful in mathematical reasoning and spatial skills), while women tend to excel (擅长) at recalling information from their brain's files (helpful with language skills and remembering the locations of objects).

Many studies have looked for a connection between sex and the amount of mental decline (衰退) people experience as they age, but the results have been mixed.

Some studies found more age-related decline in men than in women, while others saw the opposite or even no relationship at all between sex and mental decline. Those results could be improper because the studies involved older people, and women live longer than men: The men tested are the survivors, "so they're the ones that may not have shown such cognitive decline," said study team leader Elizabeth of the University of Warwick in England.

People surveyed completed four tasks that tested sex-related cognitive skills: matching an object to its rotated form, matching lines shown from the same angle, typing as many words in a particular category (范畴) as possible in the given time, e.g. "object usually colored gray", and recalling the location of objects in a line drawing. The first two were tasks at which men usually excel; the latter are typically dominated by women.

Within each age group studied, men and women performed better in their separate categories on average. And though performance declined with age for both genders, women showed obviously less decline than men overall.
