As each semester (学期) begins, he greets his students wearing a jacket and tie.“You make only one first impression,” he says. So while the rest of
31、the semester he teaches class in his usual, more casual clothes, during the first week he presents a different image.Looking professional and trustworthy on the first day, he believes, will carry over through the rest of the semester, when he goes back to the work clothes until he meets new students
32、.His thought is that students will remember their first meet positively and more willingly give him the benefit of the doubt as the semester goes on because they have been prepared to respect him through that pleasing first impression.The effect of first impressions is related to the halo effect (晕轮
33、效应), by which the belief in positive qualities in one thing or part leads to the belief in similar qualities in related things or in the whole.Here is an example: You meet a friendly person at a party and later are asked to get support from others for a worthy career. You contact that person because
34、 you think he or she will make a contribution. In reality, there is no inbuilt connection between being pleasant and being generous. Yet the halo effect leads you to believe that the two are related. Most conclude that if she was good in one kind(sociable), she will also be positive in another (gene
35、rous).First impressions matter, for good and bad. They are fine when you like someone on first meeting; they are not so fine when the first meeting is unpleasant. Good first impressions lead to social connection; bad first impressions lead to social prejudice (偏见).8. How does the authors colleague d
36、ress at the beginning of school year?A. Formally.B. Comfortably.C. Casually.D. Poorly.9. What does the underlined phrase “give him the benefit of the doubt” in paragraph 4 mean?A. To charge him.B. To choose him.C. To blame him.D. To believe him.10. What can be known from paragraph 6?A. A kind person
37、 is usually generous.B. A good quality is not necessarily linked to another.C. An easygoing person always goes together with good luck.D. A professional image is helpful in getting support from others.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Love Me Love My DogB. Students Pride and Prejudice
38、C. The Power of First ImpressionsD. Dressing Well Matters for Teachers【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C【解析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过叙述每次新学期开始，自己的同事都穿正装迎接新学生的事情，阐述了第一印象的重要性。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“As each semester begins, he greets his students wearing a jacket and tie.(一位同事这样认为。每学期开始时，他都会穿夹克打领带迎接学生。)”可知，作者的同事，在每个学期开始的时候，都穿夹
39、克打领带迎接学生，可见穿得很正式。因此，作者的同事在开学时的着装是正式的。故选A项。【9题详解】词句猜词题。根据第四段“because they have been prepared to respect him through that pleasing first impression.( 因为他们已经准备好通过这种令人愉快的第一印象来尊重他)”可知，作者的同事认为，第一天穿正装看上去很专业，值得信赖，学生们不会因为他后来穿便装而怀疑他，而是相信他。因此，第四段划线短语“give him the benefit of the doubt”意思是D项“To believe him.(去相信他
40、)”符合题意。故选D项。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段“In reality, there is no inbuilt connection between being pleasant and being generous. Yet the halo effect leads you to believe that the two are related.(联系那个人是因为你认为他或她会做出贡献。事实上，令人愉快和慷慨之间没有内在的联系。然而光环效应让你相信这两者是相关的)”可知，由于光环效应，人们会认为令人愉快的人也是很慷慨的，实际上，二者并没有关联，但是人们容易把好的品质关联到一起
41、。因此，从第六段中，我们可以得知B项“A good quality is not necessarily linked to another.(一个好的品质不一定与另一个品质挂钩)”符合题意。故选B项。【11题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段第一句“Do first impressions matter? (第一印象重要吗？)”以及最后一段第一句“First impressions matter, for good and bad.( 第一印象很重要，不管好坏)”及最后一句“Good first impressions lead to social connection; bad fi
42、rst impressions lead to social prejudice(好的第一印象导致社交联系，坏的第一印象导致社会偏见)”可知，本文作者通过叙述自己的同事，每次新学期开始都穿正装迎接新学生的事情，来阐述第一印象的重要性。因此，本文适合本文的题目是C项“The Power of First Impressions(第一印象的力量)”符合题意。故选C项。DNow anyone can pretend to be Spider-Man by simply wearing a suit that lets you feel how close you are to a nearby ob
43、ject. It can even let the wearer control with their eyes closed. The suit, called SpiderSense and built by Victor Mateevitsi of the University of Illinois inChicago, has small robotic arms with microphones that send out and pick upultrasonic reflections (超声波折射) from objects. When the ultrasound find
44、s someone moving closer to the microphone, it “knows”. Seven arms are equipped across the suit to give the wearer as near to 360 degree ultrasound coverage as possible.“When someone is hitting Spider-Man, he feels it and can avoid it. Our suit is the same idea,” says Mateevitsi. “SpiderSense could h
45、elp blind people find their way more easily.” Mateevitsi tested the suit out on students, getting them to stand outside on campus, eyes covered, and “feel” for attackers getting close.Each wearer had ninja(忍者) cardboard throwing stars to use whenever they sensed someone getting close. “Ninety five p
46、ercent of the time they were able to sense someone coming near and throw the star at them,” says Mateevitsi.“Im very excited about this,” says Gershon Dublon of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who also works on other parts of the human body. “Mateevitsis work is a step on the road to givi
47、ng humans truly integrated extrasensory perception (超感知).Mateevitsi wants to use the suit, or just a few sensors on the arms and back, to increase cyclists awareness of other traffic on the road. SpiderSense is due to be presented at an international conference in Germany this year. The team now pla
48、ns to add more sensors to the suit to increase its resolution. The team also plans to begin experiments on SpiderSense with blind people.“We humans have the senses that we are born with and we cant extend them,” Mateevitsi says. “But there are some threats which are very deadly, but we cant sense th

50、nse?A. It is of great fun.B. It works well.C. It reacts to blind people.D. It is welcome on campus.14. What can we learn about SpiderSense now?A. It helps cyclists on the road.B. It is still a Spider-Man idea.C. It is at the development stage.D. Its sensors send out radiation.15. What type of text i
51、s this passage?A. A science report.B. A film review.C. A medical recordD. A fairy tale.【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. A【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种被称为SpiderSense的宇航服，它是由芝加哥伊利诺斯大学的Victor Mateevitsi制造的，它有一个带有麦克风的小型机械手臂，可以发出并接收物体的超声波反射。【12题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段“When someone is hitting Spider-Man, he feels it and can av
52、oid it. Our suit is the same idea,” says Mateevitsi.”（“当有人打蜘蛛侠时，他能感觉到它，并能避开它。我们的设计理念是一样的，”马特维茨说。）可推知，SpiderSense会警告佩戴者即将到来的危险。故选C。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Ninety five percent of the time they were able to sense someone coming near and throw the star at them,” says Mateevitsi.”（“95%的情况下，他们能够感觉到有人靠近。这时他们把
53、星星扔向他们，”Mateevitsi说。）可推知，SpiderSense工作的非常好。故选B。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“SpiderSense is due to be presented at an international conference in Germany this year. The team now plans to add more sensors to the suit to increase its resolution. The team also plans to begin experiments on SpiderSense with bl
54、ind people.”（今年，SpiderSense将在德国的一个国际会议上亮相。该团队现在计划在宇航服上增加更多的传感器，以提高它的分辨率。该团队还计划在盲人身上进行SpiderSense实验。）可知，它正处于发展阶段。故选C。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Now anyone can pretend to be Spider-Man by simply wearing a suit that lets you feel how close you are to a nearby object. It can even let the wearer control with t
55、heir eyes closed.”（现在任何人都可以假装自己是蜘蛛侠，只要穿上一套衣服，让你感觉自己离附近的物体有多近。它甚至可以让佩戴者闭上眼睛进行控制。）可知，文章主要介绍了一种被称为SpiderSense的宇航服。由此可推知，文章可能来自一个科学报告。故选A。第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Reading is a valuable skill for children.

64、u read a book, the more your child will enjoy it.可知当你阅读一本书时，你表现得越兴奋，你的孩子就越喜欢它。由此可推知，本句为过渡句，当家长生动地阅读时，其实对家长来说也很有趣，孩子也会越喜欢。故A选项“生动地读一本儿童读物对你来说也很有趣”符合语境，故选A。【18题详解】根据后文At this stage, encourage him to read to you some of the time. Take turns reading with your child to model more advanced reading skills.
65、 This can help build your childs confidence in his ability to read and help him enjoy learning new skills.

103、 57. healthhealthy 58. memyself 59. toon 60. hardlyhard【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的梦想。【51题详解】考查主谓一致。everyone强调个体，谓语动词用单数。故have改为has。【52题详解】考查实意动词。enter“进入”是及物动词，跟宾语不用介词。故into去掉。【53题详解】考查非谓语动词。此处考查“with+宾语+宾语补足语”复合结构。宾语modern life与宾语补足语go之间是主动关系，用现在分词表示主动。故go改为going。【54题详解】考查名词复数。kind“种类”是可数名词，由differen

105、用反身代词。故me改为myself。【59题详解】考查介词。concentrate on“集中，专心”是固定搭配。故to改为on。【60题详解】考查副词。句意：毕竟，只有通过努力学习，一个人才能成功。hard“努力地”；hardly“几乎不”。根据语境，此处指“努力学习”。故hardly改hard。【点睛】短文改错在很大程度上考查学生综合运用英语的能力，一般难度不大，但是学生如果想拿高分也并非易事。因此学生在平时的学习中应注意知识的积累，并在做题时学会举一反三，总结做题技巧。（1）注意词法、句法的考查。这是短文改错最常考查的试题，所占比例较高。本文中的go改为going，kind改为kinds
106、，was改为is，health改为healthy, me改为myself，to改为on，hardly改为hard都是对词法和句法的考查。要正确解答这些试题，需要考生平时注意多积累，多总结。（2）注意一致性。一致性方面的错误主要包括主谓一致、时态一致、指代一致、并列成分对称等。文章考查的have改为has就是主谓一致。（3）查找缺词、多词。本文中出现的缺词和多词错误有两处。enter是及物动词，故into去掉。第五处：表示“我的梦想是成为一名成功的医生。” 此处泛指“一名成功的医生”，应使用不定冠词，successful是以辅音音素开头的，应使用a。故在successful前加a。第二节 书面表
