ComputerandMan
（1）Itisbelievedthatthecomputercandoalmosteverything.Atthetimethecomputerwas
invented, scientists, carried away by its calculating speed, felt that they had created a miracle. It
was gradually used not only in mathematics, physics, chemistry and astronomy, but in places like
the library, hospital and military army to replace the work of man. For the work of man. For this
reason,thecomputerwasentiled“ElectronicBrain”intermsofappreciation。
Can man be controlled by computers? The answer is negative. Although a computer works
much faster and accurately than man , a fact is undeniable; it is designed, manufactured and
programmed by man, and therefore by human beings. Of course, science fictions have made up
many fascinating stories about a computer, or rather robot, who conquers man and the earth,
even the whole universe; however, they are only unrealistic imaginatio. A horse helps man a lot

computer was invented, scientists, marveling at its calculating speed, felt that they had created a
miracle.Nowadays,thefunctionofthecomputerisnolongerconfinedtocalculation;itpermeates

People become so heavily dependent on computers that it is hard to imagine the life without
computers. Therefore, some people are worried that “The real danger is not that the computer
willthinklikeman,butmanwillthinklikethecomputer.”
Their concern does make sense. Indeed, some people spend such a long time working on
computers that they have few interactions with people in real life. According to a research, too
many hours in front of a computer may lead to a poker face and interpersonal isolation. This fact
should arouse our attention, because unlike computers, human beings are social creatures that
needemotionalconnectionswithothers.
Yet, it is also unnecessary for us to be overwhelmed by the negative impacts of computers.
After all, we humans are intelligent and will be able to figure out better ways to make
improvements.

机器、川流不息的视频文件以及滚动的大字标题的自由的间歇。B）中的Timeawayfrom是对

D)【定位】由线索词定位到第十段第二句“Distraction is the only thing that consoles us for our
miseries,"theFrenchphilosopherBlaise
Pascalwroteinthe17thcentury,“andyetitisitselfthegreatestofourmiseries.”
【精析】细节推断题。本题的解题关键在于理解第十段中 BlaisePascal 的那句话：面对痛苦，
安慰自己的唯一方法就是转移注意力，不过转移注意力本身也是我们最大的痛苦。由此可见，
他认为转移注意力就是我们人生中最大的痛苦，故D）为本题答案。
4.【线索词】MarshallMcLuhan,thingscomeatusveryfast
A)【定位】由线索词定位到第十二段 MarshallMcLuhan...warned,“Whenthingscomeatyouvery
fast,naturallyyoulosetouchwithyourself.”

来时，很自然的，你会迷失自我。换句话说，你可能会不知如何应对。
5.【线索词】yoga,meditationandtaichi
A)【定位】由线索词定位到第十四段第二句 MoreandmorepeopleIknowseemtobeturningto
yoga, or meditation ,or tai chi；these aren't New Age fads so much as ways to connect with what

此确定A）为本题答案。
6.【线索词】neuroscientistAntonioDamasio
D【) 定位】由线索词定位到第十五段最后一句 Morethanthat,empathy,aswellasdeepthought,

【线索词】seetheworldwhole
【定位】由线索词定位到第十九段第二句 Butitisonlybyhavingsomedistancefromtheworld
thatyoucanseeitwhole,andunderstandwhatyoushouldbedoingwithit.
【精析】同义转述题。题干中的 In order to 是对原文中 you can 的同义转述，题干中的 it
necessaryto 是对原文中的 itisonlyby的同义转述，因此 by 的宾语就是空格处需要填人的内
容，只需要将动名词having转化为have 即可。
9.anythinguseful
【线索词】takeswalksandreadsandloseshimselfinthestillness,hiswifeandbossesandfriends
【定位】由线索词定位到第二十段第二句…I just take walks and read and lose myself in the
stillness, recalling that it isonly bystepping briefly away from my wife and bossesand friendsthat
Iwillhaveanythingusefultobringtothem.
【精析】同义转述题。此处需要填入名词性的成分充当动词bring的宾语。题干中的hecanbring
his wife and bosses and friends 是对原文中 I will have…to bring to them 的同义转述，其中的
them 具体指代 hiswifeandbossesandfriends，所以文中 have 后面的 anythinguseful 即为答
案。
10.whatisessential
【线索词】takeshislittleboytothehermitagefrequently
【定位】由线索词定位到最后一段“ItrytobringmykidshereasoftenasIcan，”hewenton.The
child of tomorrow, I realized,may actuallybe ahead of us, in terms of sensing notwhat isnew, but
whatisessential.
【精析】同义转述题。此处需要填入名词性的成分，充当know的宾语。题干中的takeshislittle
boytothehermitagefrequently 是对原文中 ItrytobringmykidshereasoftenasIcan 的同义转
述，题干中的whenhegrowsup是对 Thechildoftomorrow的解释，而且know 与sense同义，
因此 sense 的宾语就是本题的答案，不取 not 引导的宾语，而应该选择 but 引导的宾语。故
空格处填入whatisessential。
【点评】
这是一篇取自《纽约时报》的文章。讲述的是面对现代科技带来的信息爆炸，应该如何
平静的审视自己的内心世界，找到自我，而不被信息的洪流所淹没。本次快速阅读的文章还
是延续了以往的特点，信息量较大，结构较散，但整个命题依旧遵循了文章难，题目简单的
规律。做题的要点就是，在题干中找到定位词，回原文中定位细节信息。

W:Noproblem.Youcancountonmetogetoneforyou.Myfamilyhastonsofcampinggear.
Q:Whatdoesthewomanmean?
答案：Shecanlendthemanasleepingbag.
【解析】这是一道较为简单的推理题，前提是考生需知道 campinggear 表示“野餐用具，
露营装备”，由此可知，campinggear 包括 sleepingbag，即女士能借给男士一个睡袋，此题的
设置稍微绕了个小弯，为考生解题设置了一定难度。gocamping：去野餐，去露营；sleepingbag：
睡袋。
12.

W:Oh,Juliainvitedherfriendsoverintheafternoonandtheyateitall.
Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?

答案：Presentanewletterofreference.
【解析】此题为细节题。只要考生抓住这位男士回答中的关键词 dated 和 recent，就不
难找出正确答案，而且，整个答句也很短，均是简单句，易于考生理解。letterofrecommendation

formalandstructured.
Q:Whatcanweinferabouttheman?
答案：Hedeclinestojointhegardeningclub.
【解析】此题为暗示推理题，有一定难度。抓住问题中的关键词“infer”，这位男士暗示

【点评】
本篇长对话是关于一名怀孕的员工就工作中的辐射伤害向工会投诉。对话一开篇女士先
抱怨自己工作的医院无人听她申诉有关机器已过时，会造成身体伤害的问题，因为医院想要
降低成本。然后她提到自己有向主管提出转调部门的要求，然而遭到拒绝。主管还告诫她，
医院宁愿换掉她，让他人工作，也不会更换机器。于是工会代表告诉她转调部门确实可能不
会成功。同时要想利用目前的法案来解决这一问题，也会很难实现。最后指出，除非她真正
丢失工作，工会才能拿起法律武器帮她讨薪。
本对话考生虽然对辐射造成身体伤害的话题并不陌生，但整个对话中部分单词可能还是
会造成不少听力困扰。比如：healthhazard（健康伤害）中的 hazard；X-rayequipment（X 光
仪器）中的X-ray和两大法案的名称虽不难，但也容易混淆大家的视听，而误抓重点。
ConversationTwo
W:Mr.Green,isitfairtosaythatnegotiationisanart?
M: Well, I think it’s both an art and science. You can prepare for a negotiation quite
scientifically, but the execution of the negotiation has quite a lot to do with one’s artistic quality.
The scientific part of a negotiation is in determining your strategy. What do you want out of it?
What can you give? Then of course there are tactics. How do you go about it? Do you take an
opening position in a negotiation which differs from the eventual goal you are heading for? And
thenofcoursetherearethebehavioralaspects.
W:Whatdoyoumeanbythebehavioralaspects?
M: Well, that’s I think where the art comes in. In your behavior, you can either be an actor.
You can pretend that you don’t like things which you are actually quite pleased about. Or you can
pretend to like things which you are quite happy to do without. Or you can be the honest type
negotiator who’s known to his partners in negotiation and always plays everything straight. But
the artistic part of negotiation I think has to do with responding immediately to cues one gets in
the process of negotiation. These can be verbal cues or even body language. This is where the
artisticqualitycomesin.

【点评】
本长对话主要是关于谈判的艺术性和科学性。谈判的科学性部分主要体现在谈判策略，
而谈判的艺术性则体现在表现上。这里可以归为两类，一是“演技派”，二是“诚实派”。另外，
谈判的艺术性还与对谈判过程中获得的口头暗示、肢体语言进行及时反应有关。最后男士指
出根据不同场合，无论是“诚实派”，或是“演技派”谈判者都能起到各自的效果。
本对话中的关键词有：negotiation：谈判；strategy：策略；behavioral：行为的。
SectionB
Passage1
A scientific team is studying the thinking ability of eleven and half month old children. The
test is a simple one. The baby watches a sort of show on a small stage. In Act One of the show, a
yellow cube is lifted from a blue box, and moved across the stage. Then it is returned to the box.
This is repeated 6 times. Act Two is similar except that the yellow cube is smaller. Baby boys do
not react at all to the difference and the size of the cube. But girls immediately become excited.
The scientists interpret the girls’ excitement as meaning they are trying to understand what they
have just seen. They are wondering why Act Two is odd and how it differs from Act One. In other
words, the little girls are reasoning. This experiment certainly does not definitely prove that girls
starttoreasonbeforeboys,butitprovidesacluethatscientistswouldliketostudymorecarefully.
Already it is known that bones, muscles and nerves develop faster in baby girls. Perhaps it is early
nerve development that makes some infant girls show more intelligence than infant boys.
Scientists have also found that nature seems to give another boost to girls. Baby girls usually talk
at an earlier age than boys do.Scientists think that there is a physical reason for this. They believe
that the nerve endings inthe leftside of the brain develop faster in girls than in boys, and it isthis
side of the brain that strongly influences an individual’s ability to use language and remember
things.

Passage2
Asuperattendantofthecitymunicipalbuilding,DilliaAdorno,wasresponsibleforpresenting
7/15淘宝店铺：行知小课堂
its new security plan to the public. City employees, citizens and reporters gathered in the hall to
hear her describe the plan. After outlining the main points she would cover, she assured the
audience that she would be happy to answer questions at the end of her presentation. Dillia
realized the plan was expensive and potentially controversial. So she was not surprised to see a
number of hands go up as soon as she finished speaking. An employ asked, “Would the new
system create long lines to get into the building like the line in the airport security checks?” Dillia
had anticipated this question and had an answer ready. After repeating the question, she
explained that the sufficient number of security guards would be working at peak hours to speed
things along. The next question was more confrontational.”Where was the money come from to
pay for all of this?”The journalists who ask the question seem hostile. But Dillia was careful not to
adopt the defensive tone. She stated that the money would come from the city’s general budget.
“I know these are tide times”, she added, “But everyone agrees on the importance of safe
guarding our employees and members of the public who come into the building.” Near the end of
the 25 minutes she has said, Dillia said she would take two more questions. When those were
finished, she concluded the session with a brief restatement of how the new system will improve
securityandpeaceofmindinthemunicipalbuilding.

32.Whatdidthespeakersthinkofthequestionfromthejournalist?
答案： Confrontational
【点评】
本文描写一位政府官员介绍了一项新的安保计划，并回答了在场人员的提问，类似于一
场新闻发布会。计划成本较高，而且可能颇具争议。本文详细阐述了两个提问。第一个问题
是Dillia 预见到的，但第二个记者的提问是有对抗性的，即使confrontational 这个词我们听不
懂也没关系，可以从下文的其他词汇中推断，如 hostile 有敌意的，而针对这个问题，Dillia
让自己尽可能不采取defensive 的态度，既然要采取防卫的态度，那记者的提问一定是在政府
的对立面的，因此从defensive 一词也可以判断出记者的态度。
关键词：attendantn. 随员 confrontationaladj. 对抗性的 hostile，defensive

【点评】
本文描写了Andrea一家在经历失业时依然乐观向上的积极状态。这从文章的首句Despite
unemployment and the lost of her home, Andrea Clark considers herself a blessed and happy

州，她的丈夫还在继续找工作。但是经济衰退，并没有让Andrea 消极，她觉得自己和家人的

Mountain climbing is becoming a popular sport, but it is also a potentially dangerous one.
People canfall.Theymayalsobecomeill.One ofthe mostcommondangersto climbersisaltitude
sickness, which can affect even very experienced climbers. Altitude sickness usually begins when a
climber goes above 8,000 to 9,000 feet. The higher one climbs, the less oxygen there is in the air.
When people don’t get enough oxygen, they often begin to gasp for air. They may also feel dizzy
and light-headed. Besides these symptoms of altitude sickness, others such as headache and
fatigue may also occur. At heights of over 18,000 feet, people may be climbing in a constant daze.
Their state of mind can have adverse affect on their judgment. A few precautions can help most
climbersavoidaltitudesickness.Thefirstisnottogotoohigh,toofast.Ifyouclimbto10,000feet,
stay at that height for a day or two. Your body needs to get used to a high altitude before you
climb to a even higher one. Or if you do climb higher sooner, come back down to a lower height
when you sleep. Also, drink plenty of liquids and avoid tobacco and alcohol. When you reach your
top height, do like activities rather than sleep too much. You breathe less when you sleep, so you
get less oxygen. The most important warning is this: if you have severe symptoms, then don’t go

【点评】
本文是有关高原病的，主要讲述了高原病的症状以及预防措施。文章本身长难句不多，
但出现了较多偏难单词，考验学生的临场心态。
需填单词难度较大，如dizzy，fatigue，adverse，altitude 等，对学生的词汇量要求颇高。
空格整体分布较为均匀，填写时间比较充足。所填词语格式比较重要，如-s 等是不可漏
过的细节。需填写的句子均较短，难度不是特别大。
Ⅳ【深度阅读】
深度阅读SA
47.anappropriatereferencegroup
【定位】根据题干中的evaluate,important 和 compare...with 定位到第一段第四句 Here,the'
importantaspectistocomparewithanappropriatereferencegroup.
【精析】细节辨认题。定位句指出，（在社会性比较中），其中重要的一方面是把个体与一
个适当的参照群体进行比较。题干中的 important 对应原文中的 theimportantaspect，因此
原文中comparewith的宾语即为题干中with的宾语，故答案为anappropriatereferencegroup。
48.similartopeers
【定位】根据题干中的 adolescence 和 immensepressure定位到第一段第七句 Atcertainstages
oflife,especiallyadolescence,thepressuretobeseenissimilartopeersisimmense.
【精析】细节辨认题。题干中的 animmensepressure 与原文中的 thepressure…isimmense 对
应，题干中的 toappear 对应原文中的 tobeseenas 因此原文中 as 后的similartopeers即为本
题答案。
49.accesstoagoodlistener
【定位】根据题干中的 heightentheirself-awareness 定位到第二段第一句 Peoplewhodonot
have access to a good listener may not only be denied the opportunity to heighten their
self-awareness...
【精析】同义转述题。定位句提到，没接触优秀听者的人有可能失去提升自我意识的机会。
题干中的 to heightentheir self-awareness 与原文一致，题干中的 It isoftendifficult 为原文中
bedeniedtheopportunity的同义转述，题干中的 without为原文中 donothave的同义转述，
因此原文中donothave的宾语即为题干中without的宾语，故答案为accesstoagoodlistener。
50.Seekprofessionalhelp
【定位】根据题干中的unacceptable 和familyorfriends定位到第二段第四句 Onoccasionsitis
the fear that certain disclosures may be unacceptable to family or friends that motivates an
individualtoseekprofessionalhelp.
10/15淘宝店铺：行知小课堂
