A
Our tiny boat was ploughing through (费力穿过) the waves across the Indian Ocean and I was absolutely freezing.The further we got from the shelter of the land, the more I thought how foolish I'd been to come along on this trip.
The pilot of the boat looked almost 60 but, perhaps because of a lifetime on the open sea in the hot sun, was very fit and strong.I was wondering how he managed to find his way.To me, it seemed difficult enough to navigate a boat without any electronic equipment even on a sunny day.
So at least we were safe.But this was not what we had come along for.A look at the other divers' faces suggested that now they were also doubtful that we'd ever get the chance to see a whale shark — these weather conditions were totally unsuitable for diving! None of us spoke.It seemed too much of an effort.Then suddenly the boatman stopped the engine.He said a few words in his own language to the diving instructor, who immediately jumped up from his seat and told us to get ready to dive.
When I jumped into the grey sea, I was sure I wouldn't see anything.But then ...there it was! An enormous whale shark, slowly swimming through the water.I couldn't believe my eyes — my first whale shark! I hardly dared breathe — I was afraid my streams of bubbles (气泡) might scare the huge creature away.And the other divers were equally awed.Slowly we approached this huge animal.It was swimming quite slowly and we were able to swim with it, looking at the beautiful markings on its back.I was still holding my breath, telling myself that this huge fish was harmless! Then I reached out and touched it, stroking (轻抚) its thick skin.It was amazing how this giant suddenly gained speed — we watched it as it swam away from us, and a few moments later it was gone.

【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I couldn't believe my eyes — my first whale shark!( 我简直不敢相信我的眼睛——我看到的第一条鲸鱼!)”可知，当看到鲸鱼这个庞然大物突然出现时，作者不敢相信自己的眼睛，有一点兴奋，再根据最后一段中“I was still holding my breath, telling myself that this huge fish was harmless!( 我仍然屏住呼吸，告诉自己这条大鱼是无害的!)”可知作者对这个庞然大物又有点害怕，综上所述可知作者此时又兴奋又害怕。故选B。

History tells us that footwear was one of the first things ancient people learned to make. Footwear helped them across rocky paths or hot sands without injuring themselves. The earliest footwear we know of was simply a piece of plaited (编织的) grass or leather tied to the feet.
The ancient Egyptians seem to have invented the first footwear with a firm sole (鞋底) — sandals. Egyptian royalty usually wore sandals that had a different style from those with lower status (身份), while slaves were not allowed to wear anything on their feet. The sandal is still the basic form of footwear in many countries, particularly those with a hot climate, whereas in cold climates, an entirely different type of shoe appeared — the moccasin — a slipper-shaped shoe made of soft but strong leather.
The Greeks were the first to develop shoes with heels (鞋跟). Then, in the Middle Ages, shoes with long points at the toe became very chic for the nobility. These shoes were often very difficult to wear. Other trends followed, with square-toed shoes, wide shoes, and even shoes that could make a woman stand two feet taller. Not surprisingly, these sometimes led to accidents. Even today, fashion rather than comfort often leads to the kind of shoes women wear.
Mechanical shoemaking appeared in the 1800s in North America. Until then, shoes had been made with the same kinds of hand tools used by the ancient Egyptians. And in 1858, a machine was invented that could stitch (缝合) the sole of a shoe to the upper part. Now it was possible to make shoes that were shaped to fit either the left or right foot. Toward the end of the 1800s came a new type of shoe that was specifically designed for sports — the sneaker — and it soon become an all-time favorite.
5. What did shoes often show in ancient times?
A. The rich resources. B. People's different beliefs.
C. People's status in society. D. The changeable climates.
6. What does the underlined word “chic” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Valuable. B. Convenient.
C. Fashionable. D. Comfortable.
7. Before mechanical shoemaking appeared, _____.
A. shoes were often very difficult for people to wear.
B. all the shoe patterns made by the Greeks were the same.
C. the only function of footwear was to protect people's feet.
D. people wore the same-shaped shoes on their two feet
8. How does the text mainly develop?
A. By providing examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By following the order of time. D. By following the order of importance.
【答案】5. C 6. C 7. D 8. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述鞋的起源及鞋的发展历史。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章The ancient Egyptians seem to have invented the first footwear with a firm sole (鞋底) — sandals. Egyptian royalty usually wore sandals that had a different style from those with lower status (身份), while slaves were not allowed to wear anything on their feet. 古埃及人似乎已经发明了第一种鞋，有一个坚固的鞋底-凉鞋。埃及皇室通常穿着与那些较低身份的人不同风格的凉鞋，而奴隶则不允许穿任何东西。由此可知，在古代，鞋表明不同的社会身份，故选C。
【6题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章These shoes were often very difficult to wear. Other trends followed, with square-toed shoes, wide shoes, and even shoes that could make a woman stand two feet taller. Not surprisingly, these sometimes led to accidents. 这些鞋通常很难穿。其他的流行趋势紧随其后，有方头鞋、宽头鞋，甚至还有能让女人站起来高两英尺的鞋。由此可以推断，在中世纪，脚趾上有长尖的鞋子对贵族来说是一种流行趋势，是时髦的，因此推断“chic”为时髦的，时尚的，和fashionable意思相近。故选C。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Mechanical shoemaking appeared in the 1800s in North America. Until then, shoes had been made with the same kinds of hand tools used by the ancient Egyptians. 机械制鞋业出现在19世纪的北美。在此之前，鞋子是用古埃及人使用的相同种类的手工工具制作的。由此可知，在机械制鞋业出现之前，人们穿着同样形状的鞋子。故选D。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章写作顺序，先是古埃及发明第一种鞋，到中世纪尖头鞋开始流行再到19世纪北美出现机械制鞋业，可以推断出文章是按照时间顺序来发展的。故选C。
【点睛】推断判断题就是推断隐含意义，根据文章的某个句子、段落或全文所提供的事实进行逻辑推理，推断出作者没有提到、没有明说或者可能发生的事实。推理判断题的题干特点：推断隐含意义的题干中常含infer（推断），suggest（暗示），imply（暗示），indicate（暗示），conclude（推断，得出结论）等词语。常见的题干形式如下： We can know from the passage that...； We can infer from the （first/last） passage that... ；The passage/author implies/suggests that ...；It can be concluded from the passage that ... ；The underlined sentence indicates that ...等等，它的主要解题方法就是找到推理的依据，然后理解相关信息点的字面意义，最后结合语境和常识，在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的推断，从而得到作者的言外之意。
小题4是根据文章描述鞋子发展过程的时间推理判断出，文章是按照时间顺序来构思发展的。
C
The coffee giant Starbucks is once again a popular search on the internet, and there are people who think that coffee is now replacing tea as the most popular drink in China.But, is that really so?
Starbucks opened its biggest café shop in the world in Shanghai this Wednesday.The coffee giant says this will not only give customers the usual great coffee, but also give them the full experience of how the magical coffee beans get roasted to become those wonderful drops that make up your favorite drinks.It is like the Willy Wonka factory for coffee lovers.The company is expanding aggressively, and opening a new store every 15 hours on average in China.
China has very rich and splendid tea culture.What seems like the most enjoyable thing is to drink a cup of tea on a quiet day that is full of "Zen" spirit. But the fast-pace of life sometimes doesn't allow that. So there are tea shop owners locating their shops in the downtown area in order to provide quick service for customers. Take Heytea for example. It's one of the most highly rated tea shops and it has now opened several new branches in the business areas of big cities like Beijing. Waiting in lines for longer than one hour is common.China's consumption of tea is immeasurable. According to a research of USC Institute, in China, the average person consumes 400 cups of tea per year.
So it is unlikely that coffee can replace tea as the country's main drink any time soon.The expanding coffee shops are not there to replace tea, but to provide people with another choice that they can use to enjoy life.
9. Which of the following statements is correct about Starbucks?
A. The shop opened in Shanghai simply works as a drinking place.
B. Starbucks can only be seen in the downtown area of a city.
C. Starbucks holds a certain share of Chinese drinking market.

A. Tea may bring more pleasure to Chinese citizens’ life.
B. Coffee will replace tea in Chinese drinking market.
C. Both coffee and tea will make people’s life enjoyable.
D. Coffee and tea gain the same popularity in China.
【答案】9. C 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在中国尽管咖啡很受人们欢迎，但是咖啡不可能代替茶作为中国的主要饮品，作者认为咖啡和茶都会使中国人们的生活愉快。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The coffee giant says this will not only give customers the usual great coffee, but also give them the full experience of how the magical coffee beans get roasted to become those wonderful drops that make up their favorite drinks. It is like the Willy Wonka factory for coffee lovers. The company is expanding aggressively, and opening a new store every 15 hours on average in China.(这家咖啡巨头表示，这不仅能给顾客带来平常的好咖啡，还能让他们充分体验神奇的咖啡豆是如何被烘焙成美妙的水滴，从而成为他们最喜欢的饮品。它就像Willy Wonka咖啡爱好者工厂。该公司正在大举扩张，在中国平均每15小时就开一家新店)”可知，星巴克在中国的饮品市场上占有相当的份额。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“China has very rich and splendid tea culture.What seems like the most enjoyable thing is to drink a cup of tea on a quiet day that is full of "Zen" spirit. But the fast-pace of life sometimes doesn't allow that. So there are tea shop owners locating their shops in the downtown area in order to provide quick service for customers. Take Heytea for example. It's one of the most highly rated tea shops and it has now opened several new branches in the business areas of big cities like Beijing. Waiting in lines for longer than one hour is common.China's consumption of tea is immeasurable. According to a research of USC Institute, in China, the average person consumes 400 cups of tea per year.(中国有非常丰富和灿烂的茶文化。似乎最享受的事情是在一个安静的日子里喝一杯茶，充满“禅意”的精神。但是快节奏的生活有时不允许这样。因此，为了给顾客提供快捷的服务，有些茶馆老板把他们的店设在市中心。以喜茶为例。它是评价最高的茶馆之一，现在已经在北京等大城市的商业区开了几家新的分店。排一个小时以上的队是很常见的。中国的茶叶消费量是无法估量的。 根据USC研究所的一项研究，在中国，平均每人每年要喝400杯茶)”可推知，茶文化植根于中国人民的心中。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“So it is unlikely that coffee can replace tea as the country’s main drink any time soon. The expanding coffee shops are not there to replace tea, but to provide people with another choice that they can use to enjoy life.(因此，在短期内，咖啡不太可能取代茶成为中国的主要饮料。不断扩大的咖啡店不是为了取代茶，而是为人们提供另一种享受生活的选择)”可推知，作者认为咖啡和茶都会使中国人们的生活愉快。故选C项。

Children think other youngsters who wear glasses look smarter and are more honest than those who don't wear glasses, according to a U.S. study of 80 children. In addition, the researchers found that children seldom judge peers wearing glasses in terms of appearance.
The study included 42 girls and 38 boys, aged 6 to 10.Of those, 30 wore glasses, 34 had at least one classmate with glasses, and almost two-thirds had at least one parent who wore glasses. The study participants were shown 24 pairs of pictures of children. The children in each pair of pictures differed by gender and race, and each pair of pictures included one child with glasses and one child without glasses. The children were asked a series of questions about each pair of photos. About two-thirds said children wearing glasses looked smarter than those without glasses, and 57 percent said children wearing glasses looked more honest.
These findings may help comfort children as they're fitted for their first pair of glasses, lead author Jeffrey Walline, an assistant professor of optometry at Ohio State University, suggested in a prepared statement. "If the impression of looking smarter will appeal to a child, I would use that information and tell the child it is based on research. Most kids getting glasses for the first time are sensitive about how they're going to look. Some kids simply refuse to wear glasses, because they think they'll look ugly," Walline said.
12. What impression may a youngster wearing a pair of glasses leave on his classmate?
A. Ugly. B. Easygoing. C. Dynamic. D. Intelligent.
13. Which of the following is correct about the participants of the study?
A. Most of them wore glasses at an early age.
B. Most of them had one family member wearing glasses.
C. They observed children of different ages in each picture.
D. They were required to answer the same questions.
14. Why may the result of the study comfort the children first wearing glasses?
A. Because the study is carried out in a scientific way.
B. Because it convinces them of the necessity of wearing glasses.
C. Because it may help remove all their initial worries.
D. Because the children do care about being smarter.
15. What is the best title of this article?
A. Wearing Glasses, Smarter Looking. B. Wearing Glasses, More Intelligent.
C. Concerns on Wearing Glasses. D. Wearing Glasses, a New Trend.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. A

Do People Need Small Talk to Be Happy?
Psychologists (心理学家) have long said that connecting with others is an important part of happiness, but just how much conversation we require is under examination. In one study， researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related with happiness.
___16___. Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding. Late last year, Princeton researchers reported that small talk keeps closeness with loved ones, and isn’t merely the stuff of awkward exchanges with strangers.
Still, chatting with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists gave Chicago passengers different directions about whether to talk with fellow passengers-something they typically avoided.___17___. None of the chatters reported being rejected.
Small talk can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at， made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas (服务员) reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction (交易).___18___One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not approached.
___19___.In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure (透露). But people who were considered “curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges. ___20___.
A. The same is true of gallery goers.
B. They found that small talk is related with happiness
C. But don’t play down small talk just yet.
D. Of course, some people are better than others at turning small talk into something bigger.
E. A “curious mindset”，the author concluded, can lead to “positive social interactions”.
F. Making small talk is an important skill for all the social situations.
G. Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey.
【答案】16. C 17. G 18. A 19. D 20. E
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了不要把聊天贬的一钱不值，科学家认为聊天能促进感情。
【16题详解】
根据上文“In one study, researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related with happiness.（在一项研究中，研究人员发现闲聊只占他们与快乐有关的谈话的10%。）”和下文“Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding.（科学家相信，闲聊可以促进联系)”。可知，关键词only和promote表明此空应该是一个表示转折的内容，C项：But don’t play down small talk just yet.（但是仍然不要降低闲聊）符合语境。故选C。
【17题详解】
根据空格下句“None of the chatters reported being rejected.（没有一个聊天的人表示自己碰了钉子。）”可知，上句的意思是：被告知要与别人聊天的人表示旅途更愉快。G项：Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey.（那些被要求与他人聊天的人报告说旅途更愉快。）符合语境。故选G。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Small talk can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at， made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction.闲聊还能帮助我们感到与周边环境有关联。相对于买完东西就走的顾客，对星巴克的服务生微笑，与之有目光接触以及简单聊上几句的人表示自己更有归属感。）”和下文“One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not approached.（一个报告发现当志愿者打破美术馆的寂静与艺术爱好者聊天时，参观者会比没被搭讪的人更快乐，更有与展览相关联的感觉。）”可知，根据上下句可知此空的意思是：对美术爱好者来说这同样是真的。它起承上启下的作用，故选A。
【19题详解】
根据下文“In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure（在一项研究中，被研究人员评定为“缺少好奇心”的人很难使交谈自然而然地进行下去，在拿到鼓励披露个人的信息问题时更有望与他人建立亲近感。）”可知，上句的意思应该是：我们当中的一些人比起他人更善于把闲聊变成更有意义的事情。故选D。
【20题详解】
根据上文“But people who were considered “curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges.但是被认为“有好奇心”的人不需要帮助就能把诸如最喜欢的节日之类的乏味话题转化为亲近交流。)”可知,作者得出结论认为“好奇的心态”可以激发“积极的社会交往”。故选E。

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
Our tiny boat was ploughing through (费力穿过) the waves across the Indian Ocean and I was absolutely freezing.The further we got from the shelter of the land, the more I thought how foolish I'd been to come along on this trip.
The pilot of the boat looked almost 60 but, perhaps because of a lifetime on the open sea in the hot sun, was very fit and strong.I was wondering how he managed to find his way.To me, it seemed difficult enough to navigate a boat without any electronic equipment even on a sunny day.
So at least we were safe.But this was not what we had come along for.A look at the other divers' faces suggested that now they were also doubtful that we'd ever get the chance to see a whale shark — these weather conditions were totally unsuitable for diving! None of us spoke.It seemed too much of an effort.Then suddenly the boatman stopped the engine.He said a few words in his own language to the diving instructor, who immediately jumped up from his seat and told us to get ready to dive.
When I jumped into the grey sea, I was sure I wouldn't see anything.But then ...there it was! An enormous whale shark, slowly swimming through the water.I couldn't believe my eyes — my first whale shark! I hardly dared breathe — I was afraid my streams of bubbles (气泡) might scare the huge creature away.And the other divers were equally awed.Slowly we approached this huge animal.It was swimming quite slowly and we were able to swim with it, looking at the beautiful markings on its back.I was still holding my breath, telling myself that this huge fish was harmless! Then I reached out and touched it, stroking (轻抚) its thick skin.It was amazing how this giant suddenly gained speed — we watched it as it swam away from us, and a few moments later it was gone.
1. While riding a tiny boat across the Indian Ocean, the author _____.
A. volunteered to act as a pilot
B. felt regret about his decision
C. enjoyed the beautiful sunshine
D. talked with other people happily
2. The author probably wanted to know how the boatman _____.
A. kept fit in his spare time
B spent his life on the boat
C. navigated his boat at sea
D. communicated with others
3. What was the purpose of the author's trip?
A. To see a whale shark.
B. To learn how to dive.
C. To swim the Indian Ocean.
D. To save underwater creatures.
4. How did the author feel after he jumped into the sea?
A. Rather anxious and angry.
B. A little scared but excited.
C. Doubtful and disappointed.
D. A bit tired but later relaxed.
【答案】1. B 2. C 3. A 4. B

【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Our tiny boat was ploughing through (费力穿过) the waves across the Indian Ocean and I was absolutely freezing.The further we got from the shelter of the land, the more I thought how foolish I'd been to come along on this trip.( 我们的小船在印度洋上破浪前进，我简直要冻死了。我们离这片避风的土地越远，我就越觉得自己来这趟旅行是多么愚蠢。)”可推知，由于天气不好，作者对他出海看鲸鱼的决定感到后悔。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I was wondering how he managed to find his way.To me, it seemed difficult enough to navigate a boat without any electronic equipment even on a sunny day.( 我想知道他是怎么找到路的。对我来说，即使是在阳光明媚的日子，没有任何电子设备的情况下驾驶一艘船似乎也很困难。)”可知，作者最想了解这位船夫是如何在海上辨别方向的。故选C。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“A look at the other divers' faces suggested that now they were also doubtful that we'd ever get the chance to see a whale shark(看看其他潜水员的脸，他们也怀疑我们是否有机会看到鲸鱼——这种天气条件完全不适合潜水!)”和最后一段作者描述他下水看到鲸鱼的过程可知，作者此行的目的是看鲸鱼。故选A。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I couldn't believe my eyes — my first whale shark!( 我简直不敢相信我的眼睛——我看到的第一条鲸鱼!)”可知，当看到鲸鱼这个庞然大物突然出现时，作者不敢相信自己的眼睛，有一点兴奋，再根据最后一段中“I was still holding my breath, telling myself that this huge fish was harmless!( 我仍然屏住呼吸，告诉自己这条大鱼是无害的!)”可知作者对这个庞然大物又有点害怕，综上所述可知作者此时又兴奋又害怕。故选B。

History tells us that footwear was one of the first things ancient people learned to make. Footwear helped them across rocky paths or hot sands without injuring themselves. The earliest footwear we know of was simply a piece of plaited (编织的) grass or leather tied to the feet.
The ancient Egyptians seem to have invented the first footwear with a firm sole (鞋底) — sandals. Egyptian royalty usually wore sandals that had a different style from those with lower status (身份), while slaves were not allowed to wear anything on their feet. The sandal is still the basic form of footwear in many countries, particularly those with a hot climate, whereas in cold climates, an entirely different type of shoe appeared — the moccasin — a slipper-shaped shoe made of soft but strong leather.
The Greeks were the first to develop shoes with heels (鞋跟). Then, in the Middle Ages, shoes with long points at the toe became very chic for the nobility. These shoes were often very difficult to wear. Other trends followed, with square-toed shoes, wide shoes, and even shoes that could make a woman stand two feet taller. Not surprisingly, these sometimes led to accidents. Even today, fashion rather than comfort often leads to the kind of shoes women wear.
Mechanical shoemaking appeared in the 1800s in North America. Until then, shoes had been made with the same kinds of hand tools used by the ancient Egyptians. And in 1858, a machine was invented that could stitch (缝合) the sole of a shoe to the upper part. Now it was possible to make shoes that were shaped to fit either the left or right foot. Toward the end of the 1800s came a new type of shoe that was specifically designed for sports — the sneaker — and it soon become an all-time favorite.
5. What did shoes often show in ancient times?
A. The rich resources. B. People's different beliefs.
C. People's status in society. D. The changeable climates.
6. What does the underlined word “chic” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Valuable. B. Convenient.
C. Fashionable. D. Comfortable.
7. Before mechanical shoemaking appeared, _____.
A. shoes were often very difficult for people to wear.
B. all the shoe patterns made by the Greeks were the same.
C. the only function of footwear was to protect people's feet.
D. people wore the same-shaped shoes on their two feet
8. How does the text mainly develop?
A. By providing examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By following the order of time. D. By following the order of importance.
【答案】5. C 6. C 7. D 8. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述鞋的起源及鞋的发展历史。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章The ancient Egyptians seem to have invented the first footwear with a firm sole (鞋底) — sandals. Egyptian royalty usually wore sandals that had a different style from those with lower status (身份), while slaves were not allowed to wear anything on their feet. 古埃及人似乎已经发明了第一种鞋，有一个坚固的鞋底-凉鞋。埃及皇室通常穿着与那些较低身份的人不同风格的凉鞋，而奴隶则不允许穿任何东西。由此可知，在古代，鞋表明不同的社会身份，故选C。
【6题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章These shoes were often very difficult to wear. Other trends followed, with square-toed shoes, wide shoes, and even shoes that could make a woman stand two feet taller. Not surprisingly, these sometimes led to accidents. 这些鞋通常很难穿。其他的流行趋势紧随其后，有方头鞋、宽头鞋，甚至还有能让女人站起来高两英尺的鞋。由此可以推断，在中世纪，脚趾上有长尖的鞋子对贵族来说是一种流行趋势，是时髦的，因此推断“chic”为时髦的，时尚的，和fashionable意思相近。故选C。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Mechanical shoemaking appeared in the 1800s in North America. Until then, shoes had been made with the same kinds of hand tools used by the ancient Egyptians. 机械制鞋业出现在19世纪的北美。在此之前，鞋子是用古埃及人使用的相同种类的手工工具制作的。由此可知，在机械制鞋业出现之前，人们穿着同样形状的鞋子。故选D。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章写作顺序，先是古埃及发明第一种鞋，到中世纪尖头鞋开始流行再到19世纪北美出现机械制鞋业，可以推断出文章是按照时间顺序来发展的。故选C。
【点睛】推断判断题就是推断隐含意义，根据文章的某个句子、段落或全文所提供的事实进行逻辑推理，推断出作者没有提到、没有明说或者可能发生的事实。推理判断题的题干特点：推断隐含意义的题干中常含infer（推断），suggest（暗示），imply（暗示），indicate（暗示），conclude（推断，得出结论）等词语。常见的题干形式如下： We can know from the passage that...； We can infer from the （first/last） passage that... ；The passage/author implies/suggests that ...；It can be concluded from the passage that ... ；The underlined sentence indicates that ...等等，它的主要解题方法就是找到推理的依据，然后理解相关信息点的字面意义，最后结合语境和常识，在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的推断，从而得到作者的言外之意。
小题4是根据文章描述鞋子发展过程的时间推理判断出，文章是按照时间顺序来构思发展的。
C
The coffee giant Starbucks is once again a popular search on the internet, and there are people who think that coffee is now replacing tea as the most popular drink in China.But, is that really so?
Starbucks opened its biggest café shop in the world in Shanghai this Wednesday.The coffee giant says this will not only give customers the usual great coffee, but also give them the full experience of how the magical coffee beans get roasted to become those wonderful drops that make up your favorite drinks.It is like the Willy Wonka factory for coffee lovers.The company is expanding aggressively, and opening a new store every 15 hours on average in China.
China has very rich and splendid tea culture.What seems like the most enjoyable thing is to drink a cup of tea on a quiet day that is full of "Zen" spirit. But the fast-pace of life sometimes doesn't allow that. So there are tea shop owners locating their shops in the downtown area in order to provide quick service for customers. Take Heytea for example. It's one of the most highly rated tea shops and it has now opened several new branches in the business areas of big cities like Beijing. Waiting in lines for longer than one hour is common.China's consumption of tea is immeasurable. According to a research of USC Institute, in China, the average person consumes 400 cups of tea per year.
So it is unlikely that coffee can replace tea as the country's main drink any time soon.The expanding coffee shops are not there to replace tea, but to provide people with another choice that they can use to enjoy life.
9. Which of the following statements is correct about Starbucks?
A. The shop opened in Shanghai simply works as a drinking place.
B. Starbucks can only be seen in the downtown area of a city.
C. Starbucks holds a certain share of Chinese drinking market.

B. The enjoyment of tea drinking can only be experienced in a quiet place.
C. Tea consumption holds the largest share of world drinking market.

A. Tea may bring more pleasure to Chinese citizens’ life.
B. Coffee will replace tea in Chinese drinking market.
C. Both coffee and tea will make people’s life enjoyable.
D. Coffee and tea gain the same popularity in China.
【答案】9. C 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在中国尽管咖啡很受人们欢迎，但是咖啡不可能代替茶作为中国的主要饮品，作者认为咖啡和茶都会使中国人们的生活愉快。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The coffee giant says this will not only give customers the usual great coffee, but also give them the full experience of how the magical coffee beans get roasted to become those wonderful drops that make up their favorite drinks. It is like the Willy Wonka factory for coffee lovers. The company is expanding aggressively, and opening a new store every 15 hours on average in China.(这家咖啡巨头表示，这不仅能给顾客带来平常的好咖啡，还能让他们充分体验神奇的咖啡豆是如何被烘焙成美妙的水滴，从而成为他们最喜欢的饮品。它就像Willy Wonka咖啡爱好者工厂。该公司正在大举扩张，在中国平均每15小时就开一家新店)”可知，星巴克在中国的饮品市场上占有相当的份额。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“China has very rich and splendid tea culture.What seems like the most enjoyable thing is to drink a cup of tea on a quiet day that is full of "Zen" spirit. But the fast-pace of life sometimes doesn't allow that. So there are tea shop owners locating their shops in the downtown area in order to provide quick service for customers. Take Heytea for example. It's one of the most highly rated tea shops and it has now opened several new branches in the business areas of big cities like Beijing. Waiting in lines for longer than one hour is common.China's consumption of tea is immeasurable. According to a research of USC Institute, in China, the average person consumes 400 cups of tea per year.(中国有非常丰富和灿烂的茶文化。似乎最享受的事情是在一个安静的日子里喝一杯茶，充满“禅意”的精神。但是快节奏的生活有时不允许这样。因此，为了给顾客提供快捷的服务，有些茶馆老板把他们的店设在市中心。以喜茶为例。它是评价最高的茶馆之一，现在已经在北京等大城市的商业区开了几家新的分店。排一个小时以上的队是很常见的。中国的茶叶消费量是无法估量的。 根据USC研究所的一项研究，在中国，平均每人每年要喝400杯茶)”可推知，茶文化植根于中国人民的心中。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“So it is unlikely that coffee can replace tea as the country’s main drink any time soon. The expanding coffee shops are not there to replace tea, but to provide people with another choice that they can use to enjoy life.(因此，在短期内，咖啡不太可能取代茶成为中国的主要饮料。不断扩大的咖啡店不是为了取代茶，而是为人们提供另一种享受生活的选择)”可推知，作者认为咖啡和茶都会使中国人们的生活愉快。故选C项。

Children think other youngsters who wear glasses look smarter and are more honest than those who don't wear glasses, according to a U.S. study of 80 children. In addition, the researchers found that children seldom judge peers wearing glasses in terms of appearance.
The study included 42 girls and 38 boys, aged 6 to 10.Of those, 30 wore glasses, 34 had at least one classmate with glasses, and almost two-thirds had at least one parent who wore glasses. The study participants were shown 24 pairs of pictures of children. The children in each pair of pictures differed by gender and race, and each pair of pictures included one child with glasses and one child without glasses. The children were asked a series of questions about each pair of photos. About two-thirds said children wearing glasses looked smarter than those without glasses, and 57 percent said children wearing glasses looked more honest.
These findings may help comfort children as they're fitted for their first pair of glasses, lead author Jeffrey Walline, an assistant professor of optometry at Ohio State University, suggested in a prepared statement. "If the impression of looking smarter will appeal to a child, I would use that information and tell the child it is based on research. Most kids getting glasses for the first time are sensitive about how they're going to look. Some kids simply refuse to wear glasses, because they think they'll look ugly," Walline said.
12. What impression may a youngster wearing a pair of glasses leave on his classmate?
A. Ugly. B. Easygoing. C. Dynamic. D. Intelligent.
13. Which of the following is correct about the participants of the study?
A. Most of them wore glasses at an early age.
B. Most of them had one family member wearing glasses.
C. They observed children of different ages in each picture.
D. They were required to answer the same questions.
14. Why may the result of the study comfort the children first wearing glasses?
A. Because the study is carried out in a scientific way.
B. Because it convinces them of the necessity of wearing glasses.
C. Because it may help remove all their initial worries.
D. Because the children do care about being smarter.
15. What is the best title of this article?
A. Wearing Glasses, Smarter Looking. B. Wearing Glasses, More Intelligent.
C. Concerns on Wearing Glasses. D. Wearing Glasses, a New Trend.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. A

Do People Need Small Talk to Be Happy?
Psychologists (心理学家) have long said that connecting with others is an important part of happiness, but just how much conversation we require is under examination. In one study， researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related with happiness.
___16___. Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding. Late last year, Princeton researchers reported that small talk keeps closeness with loved ones, and isn’t merely the stuff of awkward exchanges with strangers.
Still, chatting with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists gave Chicago passengers different directions about whether to talk with fellow passengers-something they typically avoided.___17___. None of the chatters reported being rejected.
Small talk can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at， made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas (服务员) reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction (交易).___18___One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not approached.
___19___.In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure (透露). But people who were considered “curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges. ___20___.
A. The same is true of gallery goers.
B. They found that small talk is related with happiness
C. But don’t play down small talk just yet.
D. Of course, some people are better than others at turning small talk into something bigger.
E. A “curious mindset”，the author concluded, can lead to “positive social interactions”.
F. Making small talk is an important skill for all the social situations.
G. Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey.
【答案】16. C 17. G 18. A 19. D 20. E
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了不要把聊天贬的一钱不值，科学家认为聊天能促进感情。
【16题详解】
根据上文“In one study, researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related with happiness.（在一项研究中，研究人员发现闲聊只占他们与快乐有关的谈话的10%。）”和下文“Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding.（科学家相信，闲聊可以促进联系)”。可知，关键词only和promote表明此空应该是一个表示转折的内容，C项：But don’t play down small talk just yet.（但是仍然不要降低闲聊）符合语境。故选C。
【17题详解】
根据空格下句“None of the chatters reported being rejected.（没有一个聊天的人表示自己碰了钉子。）”可知，上句的意思是：被告知要与别人聊天的人表示旅途更愉快。G项：Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey.（那些被要求与他人聊天的人报告说旅途更愉快。）符合语境。故选G。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Small talk can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at， made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction.闲聊还能帮助我们感到与周边环境有关联。相对于买完东西就走的顾客，对星巴克的服务生微笑，与之有目光接触以及简单聊上几句的人表示自己更有归属感。）”和下文“One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not approached.（一个报告发现当志愿者打破美术馆的寂静与艺术爱好者聊天时，参观者会比没被搭讪的人更快乐，更有与展览相关联的感觉。）”可知，根据上下句可知此空的意思是：对美术爱好者来说这同样是真的。它起承上启下的作用，故选A。
【19题详解】
根据下文“In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure（在一项研究中，被研究人员评定为“缺少好奇心”的人很难使交谈自然而然地进行下去，在拿到鼓励披露个人的信息问题时更有望与他人建立亲近感。）”可知，上句的意思应该是：我们当中的一些人比起他人更善于把闲聊变成更有意义的事情。故选D。
【20题详解】
根据上文“But people who were considered “curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges.但是被认为“有好奇心”的人不需要帮助就能把诸如最喜欢的节日之类的乏味话题转化为亲近交流。)”可知,作者得出结论认为“好奇的心态”可以激发“积极的社会交往”。故选E。
