30、walk in a straight line? The question is much more difficult to answer than you think. A recent experiment held in Japan shows that it is almost impossible for people to walk exactly straight for 60 metres.The Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology asked 20 healthy men to walk as straight as
31、 possible for 60 metres at normal speed. Each man had to wear socks soaked(浸泡)with red ink and walk on white paper fixed flat to the floor. The footprints showed that all walked in a winding rather than a straight line.Researchers found that people readjust their direction of walking regularly. The
32、amount of meandering(摆幅)differed from subject to subject. This suggests that nobody can walk in a strictly straight line. Rather, we meander, mainly due to a slight structural or functional imbalance of our legs. So steps by the left and right legs of a person are different.As a result, although we
33、may start walking in a straight line, several steps afterwards we have changed direction. Eyesight helps us to correct the direction of walking and leads us to the target. Your ears also help you walk. After turning around a lot with your eyes closed, you can hardly stand still or walk straight. Its
34、 all because your ears are still spinning(旋转)and cant help you keep your balance. Inside your inner ear is a structure containing liquids. Inside your ears are many minute hair-like structures that move around as the liquid flows.When you spin the liquid inside also spins. The difference is that whe
35、n you stop, the liquid continues to spin for a while. Dizziness(眩晕)is the result. For the moment, although your eyesight tells you to walk in a straight line your brain listen to your spinning ears, thus you dont walk in a straight line!41How many people can walk completely straight in this world?A.

37、he different state of the road答案：C推理判断题，可用逻辑推断法来解。由原文第三段中“Rather, we meander, mainly due to a slight structural or functional imbalance of our legs.”和“So steps by the left and right legs of a person are different.”之间的因果关系可以推出双腿功能的不平衡是其步调不一致的原因。43Which organ helps you to walk?A. Eyes.B. Ears.C. Legs.
38、D. Eyes and ears.答案：D推理判断题，可用逻辑推断法来解。由原文第四段中“Eyesight helps us to correct the direction of walking and leads us to the target. Your ears also help you walk.”可以推出眼睛和耳朵都协助人们步行。44What is your inner ear made of?A. A liquid structure.B. Flesh.C. Hair-like structures.D. Nothing.答案：A细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。原文第四段
39、中“Inside your inner ear is a structure containing liquids.”体现答案。45What does the underlined word “minute” mean in the fourth paragraph?A. Small.B. Heavy.C. Large.D. Long.答案：A语境词义判断题，可用推断法来解。由常识可知，耳朵内部空间很小，因此受many制约该词应表示小的。.短文改错此题要求改正所给短文的错误。对标有题号的每一行作出判断：如无错误，在该行右边横线上画一个（）；如有错误（每行只有一个错误），则按下列情况改正：该行多
