做完形填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要注意句子间的关系及句子与段落的关系。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。小题2考查名词。A. mall购物商场；B. restaurant饭店；C. school学校；D. hotel旅馆。根据下文的A visible shock went around the restaurant可知当时作者在饭店吃饭，故选B. 小题3考查名词。A. advice建议；B. help帮助；C. requests要求；D. donations捐赠。此处指钢琴演奏者询问人们的要求，下文Let's hear a request from him.给了提示，故选C.小题4考查形容词。A. comforting安慰的；B. pleasant令人愉快的；C. ordinary普通的；D. unfamiliar不熟悉的。与上句I'd never heard before呼应，此处指人们点的曲子都是我不熟悉的。故选D. 小题13考查名词。A. customer顾客；B. manager经理；C. pianist钢琴家；D. waiter服务员。此处指上文的a young piano player，故选C. 小题15考查形容词。A. older较年长的；B. younger较年轻的；C. stronger更强壮的；D. higher更高的。根据下文everyone over the age of 40, joined in singing the song和It's an old song.可知这是一首老歌，较年长的人会唱，故选A. 3.结合生活，考查学生利用常识题的能力

4.关注连词，考查学生对行文逻辑、句子关联的理解能力
此项用来考查学生在缺少连词的情况下，通过阅读能否理解句子的与句子的关系，是否了解行文逻辑的要求，能否掌握表示因果、转折、并列、条件、让步等的连词的用法。小题18考查连词。A. but但是；B. so所以；C. if如果；D. though虽然。这是一首老歌，但表达了现在对和平的希望，前后句是转折关系，故选A.
三、 阅读理解
18. People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions — and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.
Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly (均匀的) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.
“We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth.”
According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.
The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.
It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”
In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.
45. The discovery shows that Westerners_______. A. consider facial expressions universally reliable B. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth C. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways D. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions 46. What were the people asked to do in the study? A. To classify some face pictures.
B. To get their faces impressive.
C. To make a face at each other. D. To observe the researchers’ faces. 47. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A. The researchers of the study. B. The participants in the study. C. The errors made during the study.
D. The data collected from the study.
48. In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to_______. A. do translation more successfully B. study the mouth more frequently C. examine the eyes more attentively D. read facial expressions more correctly
49. According to the passage, we can infer that the researcher, Rachael Jack _______. A. is a student in University of Glasgow
B. studies the fields related to biology or cultures C. has published a new report on human rights
D. shows that facial expressions are universal signals of human emotion 50. What can be the best title for the passage? A. The Eye as the Window to the Soul B. Effective Methods to Develop Social Skills C. How to Increase Cross-cultural Understanding D. Cultural Differences in Reading Emotions
参考答案：
45. B 46. A 47. B 48. C 49. B 50. D
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了最新的科学研究发现：东方人比西方人更难于读懂他人的面部表情。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth.(西方人平等地看待眼睛和嘴巴，而东方人则偏袒眼睛而忽视嘴巴)可知，这项发现表明，西方人对眼睛和嘴巴同样重视。故选B。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral.(研究人员通过记录13名西方白人和13名东亚人的眼部运动，研究了他们在识别面部表情方面的文化差异。研究人员观察了表情丰富的面部照片，并将其分为快乐、悲伤、惊讶、恐惧、厌恶、愤怒和中性)可知，在这次研究中，人们被要求对一些脸部照片进行分类。故选A。 【47题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第六段中的The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said.(杰克说：“他们眼部动作的文化差异可能反映了面部表情的文化差异。”)由此推断出，they指的是这次研究的参与者（13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people）。故选B。 【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段最后一句Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.(我们的数据表明西方人用整个脸部传达情绪，而东方人用眼更多一些，用嘴少一些)可知，东方人更关注对方的眼神。故选C。 【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中“The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”(杰克说：“他们眼部动作的文化差异可能反映了面部表情的文化差异。”我们的数据表明西方人用整个脸部传达情绪，而东方人用眼更多一些，用嘴少一些)可知，Rachael Jack的研究与文化和生物学（对所涉及到的人身体部位的研究）有关。故选B。 【50题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其最后一段In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion.(总之，这些数据表明，面部表情不是人类情感的普遍信号。从这里开始，研究文化因素如何使这些基本社会技能多样化，将有助于我们理解人类情感)可知，?阅读情感的文化差异符合文章标题。故选D。
