7.When I was nine years old,I loved to go fishing with my dad.But the only thing that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything.I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why.He always answered,"Son,if you want to catch a fish,you have to think like a fish."I remember being even more upset then,because"I'm not a fish!"I didn't know how to think like a fish.Besides,I reasoned,how could what I think influence what a fish does?
As I got a little older,I began to understand what my dad really meant.So,I read some books on fish.And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings.I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature.That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer.Besides,water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade…The more I understood fish,the more I became effective at finding and catching them.
When I grew up and entered the business world,I remember hearing my first boss say,"We all need to think like sales people."But it didn't completely make sense.My dad never once said,"If you want to catch a fish,you need to think like a fisherman."What he said was,"You need to think like a fish."Years later,with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me,I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers.It is not an easy job.I will show you how in the following chapters.
42.What did the writer's father really mean?C

43.According to the writer,fish are most likely to be foundD.
A.in deep water on sunny days     
B.in deep water on cloudy days
C.in shallow water under sunlight

A.it easy to think like a customer    
B.his father's fishing advice inspiring
C.his first boss's sales ideas reasonable
D.it difficult to sell services to poor people

分析 本文是一篇人物故事类阅读,属于记叙文,主要叙述了作者通过以父亲教授他钓鱼时,要像鱼一样思考,学会钓鱼的道理,告诉大家从事商业销售时要像消费者一样去思考.

解答 42.答案:C.细节理解题.根据第一段的He always answered,"Son,if you want to catch a fish,you have to think like a fish 可知,爸爸的意思是要明白鱼所想的.故选C.
43.答案:D.推理判断题.根据That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water可知鱼喜欢在浅水里,不喜欢在深水里,故排除AB两项.根据water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade.Yet,fish don't have any eyelids(眼皮)and the sun hurts their eyes.可知鱼喜欢呆在阴凉处,不喜欢呆在阳光直射的地方,故排除C项.D项水边树下的浅水处,是鱼喜欢呆的地方,故此处更有可能发现鱼.故选D.
44.答案:B.推理判断题.根据I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers"我逐渐了解我们需要像消费者一样去思考"这与父亲的"You need to think like a fish"相似,因此这是父亲的话给他的启发.故选B.
45.答案:A.推理判断题.根据文章内容,本文主要叙述了作者通过以父亲教授他钓鱼时,要像鱼一样思考,学会钓鱼的道理,告诉大家从事商业销售时要像消费者一样去思考.故可知,此文应出于一本畅销书.故选A.

3.A simple gesture can be formed into a child's memory so quickly that it will cause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture.A new finding suggests that parents,social workers,psychologists and lawyers should be careful with their hands as well as their words.
While memories of both adults and children are easy to react to suggestion,those of children are known to be particularly influenced,said lead researcher Sara Broaders of Northwestern University.Kids are used to looking to adults to tell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally.
Previous research,for example,has shown that detail-loaded questions often cause false answers; when asked,say"Did you drink juice at the picnic?"the child is likely to say"yes"even if no juice had been available.It is not that the child is consciously lying,but rather the detail is quickly formed into his or her memory.
To avoid this problem,social workers have long been advised to ask children only open-ended questions,such as"What did you have at the picnic?"But an open-ended question paired with a gesture,briefly meaning a juice box,is treated like a detailed question.That is,children become likely to answer falsely.
And it isn't just a few kids:77% of children gave at least one piece of false information when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture.Gestures may also become more popular when talking with non-fluent language users,such as little kids,Broaders said as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases."It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children."
In general,Broaders advises parents and other adults to"try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event.Otherwise,you might be getting answers that don't reflect what actually happened."
32.According to the text,gesturesC.
A.have not any function at all
B.are rarely used by people
C.have certain effect on children
D.are often used by social workers

A.These gestures are very attractive.
B.Their memories are affected easily.
C.Children are easy to tell lies.
D.these gestures are used frequently.
34.According to the text,which of the following questions may cause a wrong reply?B
A.What will you have for lunch?
B.Did you cheat in the last English examination?
C.Where are you going Lucy?
D.Did you see anything else last night?

16.Be careful of those who use the truth to deceive.When someone tells you something that is true,but leaves out important information that should be included,he can create a false impression.
For example,someone might say,"I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery (彩票).It was great.I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!"
This guy's a winner,right?Maybe,maybe not.We then discover that he bought two hundred tickets,and only one was a winner.He's really a big loser!
He didn't say anything that was false,but he purposely omitted important information.That's called a half-truth.Half-truths are not technically lies,but they are just as dishonest.
Dishonest candidates in political campaigns often use this tactic (策略).Let's say that during Governor Smith's last term,her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs.Then she seeks another term.One of her opponents runs an ad saying,"During Governor Smith's term,the state lost one million jobs!"That's true.However an honest statement would have been,"During Governor Smith's term,the state had a net gain of two million jobs."
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths.It's against the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the truth.An ad might show off,"Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples."It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of dishonesty happens too often.It's a sad fact of life:Lies are lies,and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
51.Which statement is true according to the article?D
A.Whenever telling the truth,people are really lying.
B.One can get rich in a flash by getting lottery tickets.
C.All governors help their states.
D.The truth can be used in dishonest ways.
52.The underlined word"deceive"in the first paragraph probably meansC.
A.pretend
B.sell  
C.fool  
D.hide
53.A suitable title for this selection would beC.
A.Telling the Truth
B.Everyone Lies
C.Lying With the Truth
D.Trust Nobody.
