38、的内容和最后一段中的“try heating up last nightsleftovers”可知，B 项与 leftovers 的意思最相近。2B考查推理判断。A 项中的“have breakfast in a hurry”与文章第二段中的 skipbreakfast (不吃早餐)意思相反，因此排除 A 项；C、D 项未提及；作者在文中介绍了一些对于早餐的错误观点，故选 B 项。3A考查段落大意。综合最后一段内容可以得知其第一句话为该段主旨句，故选 A项。4C考查主旨大意。根据文章第三、第四段的首句和文章末句的内容可得出本文针对的对象，即这篇文章主要是写给想减肥的人看的，故选 C 项。5D细
39、节理解题。本题题干意为：最近这项研究主要是关于什么的？根据文章第一句话“根据消费者研究杂志上的一项最新研究，和我们一块用餐的同伴的体型和吃饭习惯都会影响我们的食物的摄入量”可知这项研究是关于我们的饮食行为的。故选 D 项。A：食品安全；B：电影观众类型；C：消费者需求。6D词义猜测题。本题题干意为：第一段中画线单词“beanpoles”指的是什么？画线单词所在的句子表示： 现有的研究成果认为你应该避免和那些较重的要大份饭菜的人一块用餐，与此相反的是你需要真正避开那些瘦高个且饭量大的人。画线单词与前面的 heavierpeople 相反，故选 D 项。A：大胃王；B：超重的人；C：吃饭挑剔的人。
40、7A推理判断题。本题题干意为：研究人员为什么雇用这位演员？作者在第二、三、四段描述了研究人员雇用这位演员和那些参与者做的两个测试， 发现这位演员的饮食摄入量都会影响参与者的饮食量。 由此推断出雇用她的目的就是测试她是如何影响参与者的。 故选A 项。B：测试一下参与者是否能认出她；C：为了弄明白她会在这两次测试中做什么；D：研究她为什么能够保持体重下降。8C推理判断题。本题题干意为：根据最后一段，我们在什么基础上“调整这种影响”？根据最后一段第二、三句话(如果这个同伴吃得多，我也要吃得多。我们称之为“我要有她有的东西”效应)推断出我们要想调整这种影响，就是要调整我们如何看待别人。故选 C 项。A
41、：我们到底有多饿；B：我们想要自己有多苗条；D：我们对食物的感觉。.七选五1G根据上下文内容可知，本空用来引出本文的话题，且在这里起承上启下的作用，所以选 G 项。2F由空前一句可知，本段主要介绍了不同国家的见面问候方式，F 选项介绍了美国和加拿大人见面问候的方式，与后面亚洲人和部分欧洲人的见面问候方式相对应，所以选 F项。3A由本段的内容可知，本段主要围绕眼神交流这一话题展开，所以选 A 项。4B上文中的“rude”与 B 项中的“polite”相对应，B 项说明了用什么样的方式向别人指示物体(或人)是礼貌的，所以选 B 项。5D由空前一句的“the concept of personal
42、space is nearly nonexistent”可知选 D 项。D项对“在中国，个人空间的概念几乎不存在”进行了解释说明。.语法填空1itself考查代词。此处填的代词与句子主语 tea 形成互指关系，故用反身代词。2 was described考查动词时态和语态。 根据语境中的时间状语“Acentury before the birthof Christ”可知，事情发生在过去，且 tea 和 describe 构成逻辑上的动宾关系，故用一般过去时的被动语态。3longer考查比较级。此处表示“让人活得更长”，故用 longer。4 preventing考查动名词。 介词后跟名词、 代
43、词或动名词作宾语， 故用动名词 preventing。5that考查定语从句。that 引导定语从句，在从句中作介词 of 的宾语，修饰先行词 onepoint。6is考查主谓一致。句子主语为 Tea，且与下文的“is drunk”在时态上呼应，故此处用一般现在时的第三人称单数形式。7flowers考查名词单复数。flower 是可数名词，由前面的 other 可知，此处表示复数概念，故填 flowers。8at考查介词。固定搭配 at a loss 意为“困惑，不知所措”，故用介词 at。9held考查非谓语动词。hold 和句子谓语之间没有连词，故用非谓语动词。句子主语The ceremony 与 hold 构成逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词形式。10as考查连词。由“as形容词as”的结构可知，此处应用连词 as 引导比较状语从句。
