different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women.It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men;this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are,and also have the ability to speak more clearly,precisely,and more quickly than men.In one study it was found that women spoke for an average of three minutes describing a painting,as opposed to the thirteen-minute average it took men to describe it.Men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating,which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say.Men’s body language is much more reserved when talking to women.Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them.Men avoid other people’s body space while talking,and they also tend to sit back when talking.All of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom.Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral.After learning about our styles of communicating with each other,I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating,what fun would it be if we all spoke the same“language”?The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost.The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex,“I wonder if there’s something there?” would no longer exist.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,讲述的是“相反的性别,不同的语言”。1.What does the underlined word“this”in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.The differences between men’s and women’s languages.B.The different speed of men’s and women’s speech.C.The ability of men’s and women’s spoken language.D.The non-verbal vocabulary of men and women.答案B解析词义指代题。根据第二段第一、二句“Manydifferentstudiesshowthatmentendtotalkmuchmorethanwomen.Ithasalsobeenproventhatwomentendtospeakfasterthanmen...”可知许多不同的研究表明,男人比女人更爱说话。事实证明,女性说话速度比男性快。再根据第二段下文“...thisisduetothefactthatwomentendtobeinterruptedmoreoftenthanmenare,andalsohavetheabilitytospeakmoreclearly,precisely,andmorequicklythanmen.”可知这是由于女性比男性更容易被打断,而且她们比男性更清楚、更准确、更迅速地说话。由此推知,此处this指的是男人和女人说话的速度不同。故选B项。2.In what way do men and women differ according to the third paragraph?　　　　　　　　　　　　A.Speed of understanding.B.Understanding of speech roles.C.Politeness of communication.D.Application of body language.答案D解析细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Menandwomenalsotendtohaveaverydifferentnon-verbalwayofcommunicating...”可知男人和女人也有一种非常不同的非语言交流方式,故选D项。3.What is the author’s attitude to the differences between men’s and

language答案D解析主旨大意题。根据第一段“Intoday’ssociety,languageplaysakeyroleindefininggender(性别)byvocabulary,andalsotheirnon-verbal(非语言的)vocabulary.Eachoneofthesedifferenttypesofwaysofcommunicatingisobviouslydifferentbetweenmenandwomen.”和最后一段最后一句“Thequestioneveryoneaskshimselforherselfaftertalkingwithsomeoneoftheoppositesex,‘Iwonderifthere’ssomethingthere?’

ages 5 to 12,can allow someone to remotely tap into the watch’s microphone and secretly spy from remote places.The regulator isn’t just worried about the potential of people spying on children—it’s worried the devices(设备) can be used to spy on anyone.And in Germany,it’s illegal to record private conversations without permission.According to our investigations,parents were using the watches,for example,to listen in on their children during class,said Federal Network Agency President Jochen Homann in a statement.Smartwatches that make phone calls,like the Apple Watch,are legal in Germany.The problem with many of the children’s smartwatches,however,is that the devices have a classic spying function,similar to a baby monitor,which can be easily activated(激活) just by using an app.The German regulator is so serious about destroying these devices.It’s asking citizens to document the watches’ destruction and file evidence online.Once the watches are destroyed,the regulator will provide a “certificate of destruction,” confirming the deed was done.This isn’t the first time the Federal Network Agency told German citizens to destroy a consumer device.The regulator once prohibited the doll “My Friend Cayla”,which was fitted with radio transforming technology that could allow children to be spied on.Remind tech producers:The German government won’t just ban devices that can spy on anyone.They’ll demand the devices be destroyed with hammers (or whatever means of destruction one prefers)—even if they’re dolls.【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。德国政府要求家长“毁掉”孩子的智能手表。就在中国父母们还在为孩子选择哪种智能手表而纠结时,德国政府已经全面封杀儿童智能手表,并要求国人毁掉已有的智能手表。在德国联邦网络局看来,儿童智能手表和智能娃娃都是“间谍设备”。5.Why is the Federal Network Agency concerned about children’s smartwatches?A.They are too expensive to afford.B.They can’t be used in remote places.C.They are harmful to children’s health.D.They can be used to watch anyone in secret.答案D解析细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“OnFriday,Germany’stelecomregulator(电信业管理者),theFederalNetworkAgency,announcedthatanumberofchildren’ssmartwatches,designedforages5to12,canallowsomeonetoremotelytapintothewatch’smicrophoneandsecretlyspyfromremoteplaces.”可知,它们可以被用来秘密监视任何人。故答案为D项。6.How can a smartwatch’s spying function be performed?A.By using an app. B.By using a baby monitor.C.By fixing a device. D.By downloading software.答案A解析细节理解题。根据第三段中“whichcanbeeasilyactivated(激活)justbyusinganapp.”可知,智能手表的监视功能可以通过应用程序来实现。故选A项。7.What will citizens get after destroying the watches?A.A document. B.A doll.C.A certificate. D.A prize.答案C解析细节理解题。根据第四段中“Oncethewatchesaredestroyed,theregulatorwillprovidea ‘certificateofdestruction’...”可知,在毁坏了这些手表之后,人们会得到一个证书。可知答案为C项。8.What can we infer about the German government’s attitude to children’s smartwatches?A.Doubtful. B.Supportive.C.Acceptable. D.Unbearable.答案D解析推理判断题。根据最后一段“TheGermangovernmentwon’tjustbandevicesthatcanspyonanyone.They’lldemandthedevicesbedestroyedwithhammers(orwhatevermeansofdestructiononeprefers)—evenifthey’redolls.”德国政府不仅会禁用那些给监视监听打开方便之门的设备,他们还会要求人们用锤子(或随便其他什么破坏工具)砸烂这些设备——就算是玩具娃娃也不会放过。由此可知,德国政府对智能手表的态度是不能容忍的。故选D项。 C(2018安徽江淮十校第二次联考)The last thing Caitlin Hipp would have expected as she prepared to turn 28 years old was to be living at home with her parents.All she’s ever wanted to do is to become an elementary school teacher.However,Hipp has racked up(累计) $100,000(about 0.67 million yuan) in student loan debt and isn’t able to earn enough through working as a part-time skating instructor and restaurant server to live anywhere other than home. To some degree,multigenerational households have always been a part of American life.However,the number of adults who have been moving back in with their parents or never leaving home in the first place has been growing steadily.The Pew Research Center recently reported that 2016 was a milestone in the evolving living arrangements of young adults in the US.Until 2016,the most common living arrangement for young adults was to be living in their own property as part of a couple.UBS Financial Services,a Swiss global financial services company,released a report that even suggests one reason for the growing number of young adults still living at home could be that their family doesn’t want them to leave.The report shows that 74 percent of millennials(千禧一代) get some kind of financial support from their parents after college.Millennials see their parents as peers,friends and mentors(导师).In return,their parents happily provide financial support well into adulthood,helping fund everything for them.Stuart Hoffman,chief economist for the PNC Financial Group in the US,said “Although job growth for millennials since 2014 has improved,that doesn’t necessarily mean that millennials are starting to fly the nest,”he said.“They may like living at home and being able to save money.”He added,“While it has held back household formation and purchases on things,they are probably traveling more and eating out more.I don’t know if it represents a change in moral values.It’s much more common for adult children to live in their parents’ homes because it’s becoming part of the culture.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。在西方的传统观念中,成年即意味着要离开父母,独立生活。然而现在,越来越多的西方年轻人更倾向于与父母同住。9.What’s the purpose of Caitlin Hipp’s story?A.To prove the author’s view.B.To introduce her situation.C.To present the topic.D.To make readers rethink about the problem.答案C解析推理判断题。在西方的传统观念中,成年即意味着要离开父母,独立生活。然而现在,越来越多的西方年轻人更倾向于与父母同住……。作者在第一段讲述CaitlinHipp的故事,就是为了引出本文话题,“在某种程度上,几代同堂一直都是美国人生活的一部分。然而,搬回来和父母同住、或从一开始就没离开过家的成年人数量正稳步上升。”故选C项。10.What does the underlined part (Paragraph 1) probably refer to?A.Live with parents. B.Live independently.C.Stay at home. D.Leave home.答案B解析词义猜测题。根据第一段最后一句“However,Hipphasrackedup(累计)$100,000(about0.67millionyuan)instudentloandebtandisn’tabletoearnenoughthroughworkingasapart-timeskatinginstructorandrestaurantserver...”Hipp身负10万美元(约67万元人民币)的学生贷款债务。她目前的工作是兼职滑冰教练和餐厅服务员,所以她挣的工资根本无法让她离家独立生活。可知画线部分liveanywhereotherthanhome的意思是“离开父母独自生活”,故选B项。11.According to Hoffman,which of the following is true?A.It isn’t necessary for millennials to leave the nest.B.They can spend less money on their daily life.C.Moral values are changing gradually.D.Young adults are living in a different lifestyle.答案D解析推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“Theymaylikelivingathomeandbeingabletosavemoney.”和最后一段内容可知,按照Hoffman所说,年轻人正过着一种不同的生活方式。故选D项。12.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Why is the number of the millennial growing steadily?B.Why has the percentage of adults living with their parents been on the rise?C.Why are parents willing to help fund for young adults?D.Why do more adults treat their parents as peers,friends and guides?答案B解析主旨大意题。在某种程度上,几代同堂一直都是美国人生活的一部分。然而,搬回来和父母同住或从一开始就没离开过家的成年人数量正稳步上升。所以本文主题应该是B项“Whyhasthepercentageofadultslivingwiththeirparentsbeenontherise?”为什么与父母生活在一起的成年人的比例在上升?Ⅱ.完形填空(2018黑龙江齐齐哈尔三模)When
