17、。2.D电脑专家这样说。用及物动词say。前面的直接引语是它的宾语。3.D从下文第50空所在的句子可知这里用call，指手机感染病毒后乱打电话。用call 或dial表示“拨打电话”。4.A是用turn off还是turn on?前面有operating, eat into等词表明是在手机处于工作状态是攻入，关闭你的手机，消除其中的内容。5.B使用手机时遇到这种情况，会引起诸多不便，这让你觉得害怕还是生气呢？当然是后者了。6.A message 和information都可以用，关键是后面的代词them。7.B本句的大意是“病毒会到处散发你手机上的信息，还会记下你的密码”。8.C上下文讲述手机
18、病毒，而这里讲的是手机的功能，它能上网、发邮件，还能下载而不是毁坏软件。9.D正是由于手机有上述功能，才能成为黑客的攻击目标。本题在下文也有提示。10.B it指上文所讲的事，手机受电脑病毒攻击这件事从技术角度讲是可能的。11.B既然是anti-virus，当然是“杀毒软件”。12.C“如果电话上网就会和电脑一样”，与本文最后一句“电话不和网络连接”形成对比与呼应。13.D攻击目标，这里和上文第44空形成呼应。14.C手机上的信息、电视画面等都用介词on，messages on the mobile。15.B表示“拨打电话”。这里和第38空所在句子一样，指手机受到病毒袭击后就会不断地拨打白宫、
19、急救等电话。16.C这种情况下急救中心的接线员就只好关闭系统以免受到干扰。17.A直到这令人讨厌的东西被清除掉。动词clear表示“清除”。18.C本题用or表示“或者说，换句话说”。19.B手机用户也可以躲开病毒。20.D本空的上下文表示用传统的电话功能，不与网络连接。完形填空-B Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned twelve, a white gardenia was delivered to my house.

28、s from the flower shop，而且不符合上下文的语境2.B这里用deal表示“交易”，如Its a deal.(咱们成交),这是现金交易，对方也没有留下任何信息。3.D我就不再去探询谁是送花人。4.B我虽然不再去寻找送花人是谁，但是我时刻在想是谁给我送花的。5.C从上下文判断显然用happiest,想到有人给我送的栀子花我就觉得高兴快乐。6.A从上下文判断，这一定是我对某人特别有恩，所以他总是送花给我。7.D送花给我，以表明他对我的感激和谢意。8.C从语境判断，这是我的猜想，邻居买回来一车的日常用品，我帮他从车上拿东西。9.A用across表示街对面。10.D既然是街上结冰了，
29、那么一定是冬天。11.A从上下文判断，这里不是加强语气，也不是表示顺接，而是作者在猜测另外一种可能性，用副词though表示“不过”，也许是另外一种可能。12.D下文有him，而且作者是在作显现实的猜测而不是幻想有什么超人，因此用boy。13.B本句用even though引导让步状语从句表示“尽管”我可能不认识他。这里作者少女怀春，在作各种猜想。14.C就在我要毕业的时候父亲去世了，他看不到我人生重要的一部分了。15.B这时我沉浸在失去亲人的痛苦中，对于毕业典礼和随后的舞会都不感兴趣了。16.A我这时早已忘了这些东西，还在失去亲人的悲痛中。17.C此时我已不在乎穿不穿新衣服出席舞会和典礼了。
30、18.D联想前面提到的有人送花给我，母亲希望我是可爱而又被人爱的孩子。19.B从全文的内容判断，这里作者说就像栀子花一样，在困难时期依然有美丽的存在。20.A上文提到面对困难保持坚强，本空前面有lovely，后面有perfect，那么这里应该填与“可爱”不一样的另外一种素质，因此选A。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。The $ 11 billion self help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like “ I never do a
31、nything right” into positive ones like “I can succeed.” But was positive thinking advocate Norman Vincent Peale right?

33、 positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your stupid friend that he has the potential of an Einstein, youre just underlining his faults. In one 1990s experiment, a team including psychologist Joel Cooper of Princeton asked participants to write essays opposing funding for the dis
34、abled. When the authors were later praised for their sympathy, they felt even worse about what they had written.In this experiment, Wood, Lee and Perunovic measured 68 students self-respect. The participants were then asked to write down their thoughts and feelings for four minutes. Every 15 seconds
35、, one group of students heard a bell. When it rang, they were supposed to tell themselves, I am lovable.Those with low self-respect didnt feel better after the forced self-affirmation(自我肯定). In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who werent urged
36、 to think positive thoughts.The paper provides support for newer forms of psychotherapy (心理治疗) that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them.

37、le to put their shortcomings into a larger, more realistic way. Call it the power of negative thinking.41. What do we learn from the first paragraph about the self-help industry? A. It was established by Norman Vincent Peale. B. It is a highly profitable industry. C. It is based on the concept of po
38、sitive thinking.D. It has provided positive results.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。原文定位于首段第一句“The $ 11 billion self-help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like “I never do anything right”into positive ones like “I can succeed.”选项中的based on与文中的built on同义。42. What is the finding of
39、the Canadian researchers? A. There can be no simple treatment for psychological problems. B. The power of positive thinking is limited. C. Unhappy people cannot think positively.D. Encouraging positive thinking may do more harm than good.【答案】D 【解析】原文定位为第二段：“Researchers in Canada just published a stu
40、dy in the journal Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have opposite effect;”之后，作者在下一段又再次强调了这一观点“older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse , not better.” cause of a traged
41、y与选项中的cause of the crash一致。抓住关键词“opposite effect；feel worse , not better”，答案即可一目了然。43. What does the author mean by youre just underlining his faults (Para. 3)? A. You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent. B. You are not taking his mistakes seriously enough. C. You are trying to make
42、him feel better about his faults.D. You are pointing out the errors he has committed.【答案】A【解析】与答案较为相近的是选项D。本题关键是正确理解文章中两个单词“underline（加强，强调）”与“dim（迟钝的，愚笨的）”。选项D中的point out是“指出”之意，与文章中的underlining意思不符。44. It can be inferred from the experiment of Wood, Lee and Perunovic that_. A. It is important for
43、people to continually boost their self-respect. B. Self-affirmation can bring a positive change to ones mood. C. Forcing a person to think positive thoughts may lower their self-respect.D. People with low self- respect seldom write down their true feelings.【答案】C【解析】原文定位于第五段Those with low self-esteem
44、 didnt feel better after the forced self-affirmation. In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who werent urged to think positive thoughts。抓住关键词“didnt feel better；darker”。45. What do we learn from the last paragraph? A. People can avoid making mist
45、akes through meditation. B. Meditation may prove to be a good form of psychotherapy. C. The effects of positive thinking vary from person to person.D. Different people tend to have different ways of thinking.【答案】B【解析】原文定位于最后一段。作者在最后一段提出了新的心理疗法，建议人们接受消极思维，而不要一味用积极思维去反抗。In contrast这一短语的应用，说明meditation是积极思维的对立面，即消极思维的一种方式。只有把自己的不足放到更广泛、更现实的层面去思考，才会大事化小，小事化了。选项A中的内容文中并未提及。
