【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

What does a beautiful person look like? Well, it depends on whom you ask and 1 they are from.

Much like the way people with straight hair want 2(curl) hair or those with pale skin lie in the sun trying to get a suntan (晒黑), people often find themselves more attractive when 3(visit) another country.

Recently a post went popular on the US question website Quora. It asked, “Have you ever been considered more attractive in a country 4 than your own?”

Many replies made 5 clear just how much more attractive they were considered in other country, and why.

Lolyta from Indonesia wrote, “In my home country, I am not considered beautiful, 6 when I went to Europe I got a lot of attention.” Pooja Gautam from Nepal shared a similar experience. Women with lighter skin always got more attention than she 7 in her country. But in Poland, she has gotten 8(usual) high levels of attention from locals. “Tanning salons (晒黑沙龙) are a big thing in Polish cities,” she wrote. “Some Polish people find it hard to believe 9 I tell them that many Nepalese people carry 10(umbrella) on hot, sunny days to stop their skin from turning darker.”

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。最近,美国问答网站Quora上的一篇文章问道:“你在其他国家被认为比你自己的国家更有吸引力吗?”很多人的回答都很明确,他们在其他国家的吸引力有多大,以及为什么。

1考查宾语从句连接词。句意:嗯,这取决于你问谁,他们来自哪里。本句为宾语从句,且从句中缺少地点状语,故填where

2考查形容词。句意:就像直发的人想要卷发,或者皮肤苍白的人躺在阳光下想要晒黑一样。hair为名词,要用形容词修饰,故用curly

3考查非谓语动词。句意:就像直发的人想要卷发,或者皮肤苍白的人躺在阳光下想要晒黑一样,人们在到另一个国家旅游时,往往会发现自己更有吸引力。本句已经存在谓语动词且句中没有连词,故visit做非谓语动词。与逻辑主语是people之间是主谓关系,故用现在分词visiting

4考查固定短语。句意:它问道:“你在其他国家被认为比你自己的国家更有吸引力吗?”固定词组other than“不同于。故填other

5考查形式宾语。句意:许多回复都明确表示,他们在其他国家被认为更具吸引力。短语make it clear“讲清楚make后跟it做形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的从句。故填it

6考查连词。句意:在我的祖国,我不被认为是美丽的,但当我去欧洲时,我得到了很多关注。根据语境前后是转折关系,故用but

7考查动词的省略。句意:肤色较浅的女性总是比她的国家更受关注。为了避免重复got way more attention,用助动词do代替。且根据上文got可知应用一般过去时,故填did

8考查副词。句意:但在波兰,她得到了当地人异乎寻常的高度关注。由前面的but可知前后两句是转折关系,又要修饰形容词故用副词形式unusually

9考查状语从句连接词。句意:当我告诉他们许多尼泊尔人为了防止皮肤被晒黑而在晴朗的大热天撑伞时,一些波兰人觉得难以相信。本句为时间状语从句,表示……时候,故填when

10考查名词的数。umbrella为名词,前面没有冠词修饰,故用复数形式umbrellas

名词性从句关键在于三点:一、找准从句在主句中充当的成分即分出是名词性从句的主语句、宾语从句、表语从句还是同位语从句。二、连接词从句中充当的成分(主、宾、定或状语或不做任何成分)三、弄清楚每个连接词的意义。此外还要注意,近年来高考对于名词性从句的考查多从名词性从句的语序和连接词的用法区别上考查。如第一小题考查宾语从句,从句中缺少地点状语,故填where

【题目】When I walked into the house after school, the first thing I noticed was a box with items I recognized from my dad’s office. When he told me that he was laid off, I thought he was joking. Then I noticed his seriousness and realized he was telling the truth. My father has always been a hard worker. He has prided himself on his career. 1I guess I had taken his work for granted.

2For starters, he was home all the time. It meant my bed had to be made, my room cleaned up, and my homework done right after school. I would come home every day to find him at the computer searching for jobs.3He seemed down, though he tried to be optimistic. He asked my brother and me to spend less. I gave up my spending money, which wasn’t much. I also found a parttime job.

4He explained that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business. Day by day, I watched him build it. One evening I asked if he needed help. “Only if it doesn’t affect school,” he said. I showed up at his office the next afternoon, and most afternoons after that for two months.

5The terrible experience for our family taught me how to deal with difficulties. Now I know that through creative problemsolving, I can always find Plan B. I can ask for help and take risks.

【题目】 Mirroring body language is a way to bond and to build understanding. It is a powerful tool that we use without even knowing it.

The most obvious forms of mirroring are yawning and smiling. When you see someone yawn, you are likely to yawn immediately. Smiling is also pretty contagious-seeing a smiling person makes you want to smile too.

Mirroring body language is a nonverbal way to say “I am like you, I feel the same”. Research shows that people who experience the same feelings are likely to trust, understand and accept each other.

Women have the natural ability to pick up and understand body signals. Therefore, it is not surprising that a woman is more likely to mirror another woman than a man is to mirror another man. That's why women are regarded as better talkers, even if they might not really have more close friends.

It is interesting that when a man tries to mirror a woman's body language while she is talking, he may seem to her as caring, intelligent and attractive.

Mirroring body language is an excellent way to build trust and understanding quickly. If you want to set up a connection with a new person, mirror his or her gestures, sitting position, tone of voice and talking pace. This will make them feel that there is something about you that they like.

While mirroring body language gains you acceptance, you still need to take into consideration your relationship with the person you are mirroring. If you are in a lower social position and are mirroring the body language of your boss, he will view you as arrogant. However, if you want to defeat those who are trying to prove superior to you, mirroring their body language will help defeat them and change their position.
