41、understood what was said.【答案及解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了什么是积极的倾听,如何做一个积极的倾听者。1. B根据后文“the speaker and the listener sit facing each other.”和“The two people take turns talking.”可知,空格处是对积极倾听的参与者的描述;且“done by two people on their own”与上句“be guided by a third person”构成选择关系,故B项“或者,它可以由两个人独自完成。”与上下文相呼应。故选B项。2. C本空前一句“
42、You should avoid thinking about what to say next or whether what the speaker is saying is right.”介绍了在积极倾听时,要避免做的事,C项“相反,要专注于理解对方所说的话。”介绍了在积极倾听时要专注于理解对方所说的话,前后为转折关系,且符合语境。故选C项。3. G根据后句“这会给对方一个澄清误会的机会。”可知,此处的做法能让讲话者知道自己是否清楚地表达了想说的话,且后句中的“It”可以指代G项“这样做可以让说话者知道你对他所说的内容理解得怎么样。”。且G项“that”可以指代前句“repeat bac
43、k the main points of what he or she just said.”,G项与前后文相呼应。故选G项。4. D根据本空后句“From there, the two people switch back and forth until they have both fully heard and understood each other.”可知,D项“然后,说话者与聆听者角色互换”符合语境,且语意上为承接关系。The speaker and the listener 呼应 two people 。故选D项。5.
