When groups of men and women watch a movie to
16、gether, the men usually end up telling the women to shut up. Men can either talk or watch the screen - they cant do both - and they dont understand that women can. Besides, women consider that the point of all getting together is to have a good time and develop relationships - not just to sit there
17、like couch potatoes staring at the screen.During the ad breaks, a man often asks a woman to explain the plot and tell him where the relationship between the characters is going. He is unable, unlike women, to read the subtle body language signals that reveal how the characters are feeling emotionall
18、y. Since women originally spent their days with the other women and children in the group, they developed the ability to communicate successfully in order to maintain relationships. For a woman, speech continues to have such a clear purpose: to build relationships and make friends. For men, to talk
19、is to relate the facts.Men see the telephone as a communication tool for sending facts and information to other people, but a woman sees it as a means of bonding. A woman can spend two weeks on vacation with her girlfriend and, when she returns home, telephone the same girlfriend and talk for anothe
20、r two hours.There is no convincing evidence that social conditioning, the fact that girls mothers talked to them more, is the reason why girls talk more than boys. Psychiatrist Dr Michael Lewis, author of Social Behaviour and Language Acquisition, conducted experiments that found mothers talked to,
21、and looked at, baby girls more often than baby boys. Scientific evidence shows parents respond the brain bias of their children. Since a girls brain is better organized to send and receive speech, we therefore talk to them more. Consequently, mothers who try to talk to their sons are usually disappo
22、inted to receive only short grunts in reply.36. While watching TV with others, women usually talk a lot because they A. are afraid of awkward silence with their families and friendsB. can both talk and watch the screen at the same timeC. think they can have a good time and develop relationshipsD. ha
23、ve to explain the plot and body language to their husbands37. After a vacation with her girlfriend, a woman would talk to her again on the phone for hours in order to .A. experience the happy time again B. keep a close tie with herC. recommend her a new scenic spot D. remind her of something forgott
24、en38. What does the author want to tell us most?A. Womens brains are better organized for language and communicationB. Women love to talk because they are more sociable than men.C. Men do not like talking because they rely more on facts.D. Social conditioning is not the reason why women love talking
25、.39. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Women Are Socially Trained to Talk B. Talking Maintains RelationshipsC. Women Love to Talk D. Men Talk Differently from WomenBHappiness is associated with smiling. But do we always smile when we are happy?During the Olympic Games
26、 in Barcelona in 1992, Spanish researchers analyzed the facial expressions of 22 gold medal winners at the medal ceremonies. The researchers were surprised to see that these medal winners didnt smile very much. In fact, throughout the different medal ceremonies, they only smiled about 10% of the tim
27、e. But during the brief moment when the gold medal was put around their neck, the medal winners grinned (露齿笑) about 70% of the time. The researchers interviewed the winners they had watched to find out how they felt. All the winners interviewed said that they felt intensely(强烈的happy throughout the c
28、eremony. Though they were profoundly衷心地happy, they didnt smile a great deal. The researchers concluded that smiling was not the automatic expression of happiness. The fact that the gold medal winners smiled much more when they were actually being given their medals could be explained because, accord
29、ing to the Spanish researchers, smiling was a form of communication between individuals. The happy athletes were smiling at the people who were giving them gold medals. Perhaps we can support the findings of the Spanish researchers by making some observations of our own behaviors. When we are all al
30、one, for example, do we smile at ourselves when we are happy? Probably not very often. If someone greets us with a friendly smile, do we respond with a smile? Yes, we probably do. When a friend gives us a beautiful present, will we show our appreciation with a smile? Yes, of course. But if we are si
31、tting alone watching television, do we smile at a commentator (讲解员) who smiles at us?40. How much of the time did the gold medal winners smile during the medal ceremonies? A. 10%. B. 70%. C. 22%. D. 92%.41. According to the passage, when did the athletes smile quite a lot? A. Throughout the medal ce
32、remony. B. When they were informed of their success. C. When the gold medal was put around their neck. D. When their national flag was raised.42. According to the passage, on which of the following occasions would we most probably NOT smile?A. When we are sitting alone watching TV. B. When someone g
33、reets us with a friendly smile.C. When a friend gives us a beautiful present. D. When we feel intensely happy.43. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The gold medal winners were too nervous that they would hardly smile at themedal ceremonies.B. People will always s
34、mile automatically when they feel happy.C. Smiling is a way of communication.D. When the gold medal was put around their neck, the gold medal winners were smiling at the audience but not at those who gave the medal.C It was a Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night.The morning after the stor
35、m,though, was beautiful:blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently. My father realised it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him.I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same. Im so glad I did.On the r
36、oad to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast,but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape.After all， it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea.As we got on board,we noticed two big humps (脊背) in the distance. On approaching them, we s
37、aw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldnt believe it there arent any whales along the coast here.The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badlly polluted that nothing could survive.The little baby whaleactually as big as our boatwas obvi
38、ously stuck and could not move.The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩涡) and waves. “Shes trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side,my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the
39、baby whale, pushed it gently. With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappared under water.Then it swam up right beside its mum.They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction.We hurried up to the whales and tr
40、ied to lead them towards the bay channel. Showly, they let us lead them, some-times rising from the water right beside us to breatheand to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail a
41、nd off they swam into the distance.In the excitement, it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day. Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.44.

45、ike fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit .any r
