点评 完形填空解题技巧：一、做完形填空时，要始终抓住文章本身，联系"双语境"来判断，既大语境--全文中心和基调，小语境--空格前后句子所构成的语境；再根据前有伏笔后有呼应的思路来做题．二、在完形填空题中，but 一词前后通常会设题．文中一出现but，应该马上想到前后语意有转折，只要知道其中一方的语意，就可以推出另一方的意思，所以在做题时，遇到类似but的词，如：however，nevertheless，whereas，yet等，也可以同样处理，以便于从文中找到解题的依据．三、绝对矛盾法是从选项着手分析，若四个选项中有两个选项是绝对矛盾和对立，那么正确选项大多在这两个对立项之间产生．二者必居其一．至于究竟是两者中的哪一个，则需要进一步根据上下文的语境来判断．四、同义复现是英语中常见的一种现象．为强调某一意思，但又不想重复使用某个词或短语．在完形填空题中，同义词或同义短语的位置多半比较靠近，很容易找到，所以同义复现法是很好的解题技巧．无须过多的推理，只需确定是哪里使用了同义复现，然后从选项中找出与之相符合的一项即可．

14．Thousands of taxi drivers in Shenyang，Liaoning Province，reportedly blocked （阻碍） streets with their cars on Sunday in protest （抗议） against unlicensed （无执照的） cars using taxi-hiring apps （打车软件） and apps-based car rental （出租） companies providing passenger services，including high-end （高端的） cars．Although the drivers also complained about the withdrawal （退出） of the fuel subsidy （燃油补贴） by the authority （管理部门），their main complaint was to make the authority aware of the loss of business because of the rising number of Internet-based car service companies．
It is not yet clear how Shenyang will deal with the problem and whether it will declare （宣布） the services offered by market leaders such as Didi Dache，a taxi-hiring app provider backed （支持） by Tencent Holdings （腾讯控股），and Kuaidi Dache illegal．But Shanghai has set a rule to ban Didi Zhuanche，or car services offered by Didi Dache from December on．
On Wednesday，news came that Beijing will take measures to stop the illegal"taxi business"of private cars through the newly rising Internet apps，following the footsteps of Shanghai and Nanjing．
Such acts will cause a setback （挫折） to the car-hiring companies and investors．Just last month，Didi Dache got $700million fund （基金） from global investors，including Singapore state investment company Temasek Holdings，Russian investment company DST Global and Tencent．Besides，the market is uncertain that Kuaidi Dache is about to finish its latest round of funding after getting 800million from global investors．
Uncertain regulatory （监管），however，could affect the future of the Internet-based car-hiring services，which have become popular in most of China's big cities．To be fair，these companies'business model is anything but bad．For example，Didi Zhuanche works side by side with car rental companies to provide high-end car service mainly for business people through the Internet and mobile phone apps．
Every link in this business model chain has legal companies and services．Therefore，it is hard to define （下定义） it as illegal and ban it．
32．Why did taxi drivers in Shenyang block the streets with their cars？A
A．Because they wanted to make their main complaints known to the authority．
B．Because they wanted the authority to continue the fuel subsidy．
C．Because they wanted to be taught how to use the taxi-hiring apps．
D．Because they wanted to appeal to passengers not to hire the private cars．
33．The author's attitude to banning internet car-hiring service isC．
A．positive             
B．neutral             
C．negative              
D．unclear
34．We can learn from the passage thatD．
A．Shenyang has already forbidden apps-based car rental companies
B．Shanghai won't ban Didi Zhuanche
C．it is quite easy to picture the apps-based car rental companies illegal
D．some international investment companies have strong faith in the future of apps-based car rental companies
35．Where can the passage probably appear？C
A．In a textbook．
B．In a travel guidebook．
C．In a newspaper．
D．In a poster on the wall．

19．A new research has uncovered that culture is a determining factor when interpreting facial emotions（情感）．The study reveals that in cultures where emotional control is the standard，such as Japan，focus is placed on the eyes to interpret emotions．Whereas in cultures where emotion is openly expressed，such as the United States，the focus is on the mouth to interpret emotion．
"These findings go against the popular theory that the facial expressions of basic emotions can be universally recognized，"said University of Alberta researcher Dr．Takahiko Masuda．"A person's culture plays a very strong role in determining how they will read emotions and needs to be considered when interpreting facial expression．"
These cultural differences are even noticeable in computer emoticons（情感符号），which are used to convey a writer's emotions over email and text messaging．The Japanese emoticons for happiness and sadness vary in terms of how the eyes are drawn，while American emoticons vary with the direction of the mouth．In the United States the emoticons：） and：-） show a happy face，whereas the emoticons：（or：-（ show a sad face．However，Japanese tend to use the symbol （‘‘） to indicate a happy face，and （；_； ）to indicate a sad face．
"We think it is quite interesting and appropriate that a culture tends to mask its emotions．The Japanese would focus on a person's eyes when determining emotion，as eyes tend to be quite subtle（微妙的），"said Masuda．"In the United States，where open emotion is quite common，it makes sense to focus on the mouth，which is the most expressive feature on a person's face．"

51．The text mainly tells us thatB．
A．cultural differences are expressed in emotions
B．culture is the key to interpreting facial emotions
C．different emoticons are preferred in different cultures
D．people from different cultures express emotions differently
52．Which emoticon is used by Americans to show a happy face？C
A．（；_；）  B．：-（      C．：-）     D．（‘‘）
53．If a Japanese wants to detect whether a smile is true or false，he will probablyD．
A．read the whole face       B．focus on the mouth
C．judge by the voice        D．look into the eyes
54．People used to believe thatD．
A．some facial expressions of emotions were too complex to be recognized
B．people in the world interpreted basic emotions in different ways
C．people could only recognize the facial expressions of basic emotions
D．people all over the world understood basic emotions almost in the same way．
9．He says the problem with teachers is，"What will a kid learn from someone who chose to become a teacher？"He reminds the other dinner guests that it's true what they say about teachers：Those who can，do； those who can't teach．
I decide to bite my tongue instead of biting his and stop myself from reminding the other dinner guests that it's also true what they say about lawyers-that they make money from the misfortune of others．
"I mean，you're a teacher，Taylor，"he says to me．"Be honest．What do you make？"
I wish he hadn't asked me to be honest，because now I have to teach him a lesson．
You want to know what I make？
I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could．
I can make a C+ feel like a great achievement and an A-feel like a failure．
How dare you waste my time with anything less than your very best？
I make parents tremble in fear when I call them：
I hope I haven't called at a bad time，
I just wanted to talk to you about something Billy said today．
Billy said，"Leave the kid alone．I still cry sometimes，don't you？"
And it was the bravest act I have ever seen．
I make parents see their children for who they are and what they can be．
You want to know what I make？
I make kids wonder．
I make them question．
I make them criticise．
I make them think．
I make them apologies and mean it．
I make them write，write，write．
And then I make them read．
I teach them to solve math problems
that they once thought impossible．
I make them understand that if you have brains then you follow your heart
and if someone ever tries to judge you by what you make，you teach them a lesson．
Let me make this simple for you，so you know what I say is true；
I make a great difference!What about you？

16．Sleeping in on Saturday after a few weeks of too little shuteye may feel refreshing，but it can give a false sense of security．
New research shows long-term sleep loss cannot be cured that easily．Scientists researched the effects of short-and long-term sleep loss and found that those who suffer long-term sleep loss may function normally soon after waking up，but experience steadily slower reaction times as the day goes by，even if they had tried to catch up the previous night．
The research has important safety significances in an increasingly busy society，not just for shift-workers but for the roughly one in six Americans who regularly get six hours or less of sleep a night．
"We know that staying awake 24 hours without sleep will affect your performance to do all sorts of things，and this effect equals to drinking too much when driving，"said lead researcher Dr．Daniel Cohen of Boston's Brigham and Women's Hospital．But when those who suffer long-term sleep loss become all-nighters，"the harm is increased ten times，"Cohen said．
The National Institutes of Health says adults need seven hours to nine hours of sleep for good health．Regularly getting too little sleep increases the risk of health problems，including memory impairment and a weakened immune system．More immediately，too little sleep affects reaction times； sleepiness is to blame for car crashes and other accidents．
It has critically important complicated and unexpected results for anyone who works"crazy hours"and thinks they are performing fine with a few hours of weeknight sleep，said Harris，director at New York's Montefiore Medical Center．"Don't think you can just bank up your sleep on the weekend，because it doesn't work that way，"he warned．
