根据上文的strongfeeling可知anger符合文意。2.C 下文所列举的例子STOPsigns和fireengines都属于危险信号,故选danger。3.B 根据常识,黄色应是秋天树叶的颜色,故应选leaves。4.A 下文提到人们把黄色和幸福联系起来,说明黄色是一个充满生机的颜色,故选lively。5.C 下文提到黄色是令人愉快的颜色,根据常识太阳光的颜色是黄色,故选sunlight。6.B 绿色是春季里草的颜色,故选spring。7.C speak后面往往接某种语言作宾语;say后面常接说话的内容;tell的宾语一般是人;talkaboutsth意为“谈论某事物”。故C项正确。8.B 根据上文对yellow的解释,可知yellow也属于warmcolor。9.C 与下文喜欢冷色调的人相对应,再根据上文对各种暖色调的解释可知,active为正确选项。10.A 四个选项中只有black可归到冷色调中去。11.A 前一句讲的是冷色调,故此处选colors。12.B goby意为“走过,流逝”,与下文的pass照应。13.B 根据上文,暖色调的环境下时间似乎过得更慢,说明暖色调是用来装饰起居室和饭馆的好方法,故选way。14.C 由下一句中的areeating提示可知选C。15.B 与暖色调相对立,冷色调适用于办公室,以使人感觉时间过得比较快。Ⅱ.A俗话说得好:“笑一笑,十年少”。本文是一本书的引言,通过比尔·盖茨和通用汽车公司总裁的幽默谈话向我们讲述了“笑”的作用:它可以促进我们的身体健康,增强抵御疾病的能力。16.D 主旨大意题。纵观全文可以看出:文章通过一个幽默引出了笑的作用:可以增进我们的身体健康,增强抵御疾病的能力。17.B 细节理解题。文章第一段的Ifautomotivetechnologyhadkeptpacewithcomputertechnologyoverthepastfewdecades,youwouldnowbedrivingaV32insteadofaV8,用的是虚拟语气。意思是:如果在过去的几十年里汽车的发展要是跟得上电脑技术的话,那么你现在开的就会是V32而不是V8。18.C 细节理解题。由文章倒数第二段的Forusitseemssonatural,butthefunnythingisthathumansareoneoftheonlyspeciesthatlaughs.可知。19.A 词义猜测题。该词的意思应和此句前面的Jokes(笑话)以及下文的comedians接近,故选A。而tragedies(悲剧),bodylanguages(身势语),fictions(小说)均不在此列。20.B 推理判断题。由最后一段的后半部分尤其是Inthisarticle,we'll…可以看出,该文是一篇文章的引言部分,用以吸引读者,介绍文章的内容。B21.D 细节理解题。根据GilGreengross和KateFox的谈话内容,即“爱与笑”是人类社会永恒的话题。因此,两位专家都是研究人类学的。故选D项。22.C 推理判断题。对于GilGreengross的相关信息表述,只有C项符合倒数第二段GilGreengross所说的Ifyouarealowstatusindividual,usingselfdeprecatinghumourcanbedisastroustoyou一句的含义。6\n23.B 词义猜测题。由第四段的解释Itisariskyformofhumour…toone'srealfaults,therebydiminishingtheselfdeprecator'sstatusintheeyesofothers.说明takingthemickeyoutofoneself就是“戏弄自己”,也就是“自嘲”(selfdeprecation)。24.B 推理判断题。A项错在与第一段最后一句不吻合;B项正确是因为与第四段中Itisariskyformofhumour…diminishingtheselfdeprecator'sstatusintheeyesofothers.一句吻合;C项错在与第五段最后一句weobeythemautomatically,ratherinthewaythatweobeythelawofgravity.不吻合;D项错在与最后一段第一句不吻合。25.B 推理判断题。文章讨论的是谦卑、笑声以及自嘲等的运用,说明一种社会问题,极有可能出自某个调查研究。故不可能是A项(小说)、C项(宠物杂志)、D项(旅游指南),而应该是B项(一份调查研究)。6
