18、r,theres no problem.But if our habits are different,you may start to talk before Im finished or fail to take your turn when Im finished.Thats what was happening with Betty and Sara.It may not be coincidental that Betty,who expected relatively longer pauses between turns,is British,and Sara,who expec

21、nal consequences.For example,a woman from the southwestern part of the US went to live in an eastern city to take up a job in personnel.When the Personnel Department got together for meetings,she kept searching for the right time to break in-and never found it.Although back home she was considered o

22、utgoing and confident,in Washington she was viewed as shy and retiring.When she was evaluated at the end of the year,she was told to take a training course because of her inability to speak up.Thats why slight differences in conversational style-tiny little things like microseconds of 精品文档.pause-can

28、 a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them.Full government funding(资助)is not very good for universities.Adam Smith worked in a Scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees.He knew and looked down upon 18th-century Oxford,where the academics lived com

29、fortably off the income received from the government.Guaranteed salaries,Smith argued,were the enemy of hard work;and when the academics were lazy and incompetent,the students were similarly lazy.If students have to pay for their education,they not only work harder,but also demand more from their te

30、achers.And their teachers have to keep them satisfied.If that means taking teaching seriously,and giving less time to their own research interests,that is surely something to celebrate.Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy(经济).Many graduates clea

42、覆盖面广，语言地道，文体特征鲜明。文章体裁和主要内容介绍 夹叙夹议：通过记叙作者与一只被遗弃的小狗的故事，说明不应该轻易对他人的行为下定论。（A 篇）应用文：一位主编的公开信，劝说同行要注重手下记者的职业发展，激发他们的潜能。（B篇）说明文：介绍不同文化背景的人有不同的谈话节奏，及其带来的问题。（C 篇）议论文：支持高等教育应该由受教育人自付费用。（D 篇）说明文：介绍缪扎克音乐(一种通过线路向机场、商场、餐馆等播放的背景录音音乐)。（E篇）与往年比较的变化 1每一篇文章都加上了标题：一定程度上降低了考试难度，帮助学生把握文章的中心意思。精品文档.2应用文消失：今年阅读理解形式上保留了应用文，

43、因为 B 篇体裁仍为书信，实则为说理性质，增加了考题的难度。答案解析及技巧运用 A 篇 阅读技巧：夹叙夹议，叙为议服务，议为叙指导。把握了这句话就把握了阅读此类文章的真谛。叙述不分重点关注人物，情节的变化；议论一定看清楚作者想表明的道理。答题技巧：本篇题目由 3 个细节题和一道文章结构题组成，难度都不大。细节题要求学生把握文章中的原文，做合理推断和转述。比如 57 题，将 unsettled 理解成 worried。文章结构题基本属于送分题，要求学生作答，此篇记叙文按照时间顺序发展。56.B 情绪推断，较难题。此推断题的难点在于，原文没有直接的形容词表述，要求学生通过具体的描述总结。原文第 2

44、 段 She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her.There was nothing I could do to make her happy,it seemed.Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owners.划线句子表明作者同情被遗弃的小狗，希望帮助它高兴起来。57.A 细节题，较难题。要做对此题主要要排除 C 项的干扰，原文第 2 段 She hardly ate anything and had such an air of s

45、adness about her.hardly ate anything 的表述与 ate little 是不一样的。前者是几乎什么都不吃，后者是吃得少，此错误选项属于改变否定/肯定的程度。58.D 原因推断题，简单题，通过原文第 4 段的描写可得正确答案。59.A 问文章的行文结构，简单题，此篇记叙文按照时间顺序发展。B 篇 阅读技巧：第一段出现重要信息：特殊标点破折号和隐性转折词 in fact，因此后面信息极其重要：写信给一个编辑说他的 reporter 很棒，但是要离开了；第二段要把握两个中文注释，此 reporter 给作者简历并充满热情地向其描述了自身特质;第三段平淡无奇，机械寻找

46、重要信息出处in fact，故得知该 reporter 干一行爱一行，精神可嘉;接着第四段一个问句，基本预示情节的转折，一眼即得知下面要详细阐述该 reporter 要离开的原因;继续往下，重要信息处稍微留意，即转折词 but，因果词 so,最后段的最高级 best 句，以及有特殊标点出现的最后一精品文档.句。通过这几处内容的梳理，文意会变得清晰很多-年轻记者需要主编充分发挥他们的潜能，在竞争与挑战中寻求职业发展。答题技巧：此篇的 4 个题目包括 3 个推断题，其中包括对人物态度、作者身份、写作目的的推断。人物态度要求学生具备将具体描述wants to be coached to new he

47、ights 等转换成形容词表述的能力；作者身份推断题要求学生学会通过人称代词 our 判断；写作目的要求学生对全文的把握能力。60.C 判断推理题，难题。原文 He wants to be pushed,challenged,coached to new heights.要通过划线处的具体描述总结出 ambitious 这个词：有抱负的。61.D 细节题，较难题。困难之处在于不好定位原文，故用排除法。从选项中找关键词，逐个排查，得出正确选项 D.62.A 推断作者身份，较难题。此类型题目把握方法很简单：文章对象（主编）+人称(our)，不难得出正确答案作者也是主编。63.C 考查文章写作目的，

48、较难题。抓住文章结尾是王道：Our best hope Our best hope in keeping our best reporters,copy editors,photographers,artists-everyone-is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential 再结合前面 60 题的答案，不难选出正确答案。C 篇 阅读技巧：开篇复杂的人物关系，以及第三段几个国家之间的复杂对比是学生阅读的最大困难。攻略：1.动笔：中国学生对英语名字太不敏感，

49、请划出来。2.再难读说明文的目标不变：找出文章说明对象是什么。答题技巧：包括 3 个细节题和一个词义猜测题，其中 65 题细节比较排序题是亮点，要求学生从复杂的表述中理清顺序，区别出哪国人的说话节奏最快。64.C 细节题，难题。难在弄不清谁是 S 谁是 B，耐心读，动笔划，从第一段得出正确答案并不难：Sara felt Betty didnt hold up her end of the conversation 精品文档.65.B 细节排序题，难题。还是耐心读，动笔划。S 代表美国人，B 代表英国人（加起来？），S比 B 期待谈话间隙时间更短，又在以色列人(Israelis)说话时插不上嘴，

50、故答案选说话嗒嗒嗒嗒的以色列人。66.C 变态细节题，较难题。A 不符原文，B 无中生有，D 无中生有，C 关键要理解 culturally determined，由文化决定或者受文化影响。67.A 词义猜测题，较难。难点在于 A 选项的干扰作用。原文说那位 MM 的 inability to speak up注意别人认为她没能力，不是说她不愿意。所以 D 比 A 好，此处用反义对比方法。D 篇 阅读技巧：此篇议论文难度较低。把握议论文的阅读两步：1.作者想说服你什么？2.分了几个并列的点来说服你？答题技巧：此篇包括 2 个推断题和 1 个细节题。其中 68 题要求学生找出 them 的所指，
