19.It's nearly time for the meeting to start.The manager ________ be here soon.(  )
A.couldB.shouldC.needD.would

分析 几乎到了会议开始的时间了.经理按理快到这儿了.

解答 答案是B.本题考查表示推测的情态动词的用法. could表示推测往往不出现在肯定句中;should表示推测时往往表示"按照常理常规的推测",表示"按照道理应该…";need不表示推测;would(有充分理由的猜测)肯定是.根据语境"快到开会的时间了",经理"按照常理"快到了,所以答案是B.

点评 在正确理解情态动词的基本含义的基础上,整体理解语境中的情感态度,做出合理的判断.

16.Once upon a time,a king had a precious diamond (钻石).As he held it to the light,it was shinning.He felt it would suit the crown (皇冠).
One morning,the king awoke and upon taking out his precious treasure,he found,much to his astonishment,there was a single thin crack running down its face.
The greatest jewelers were called in to look at the stone in the hope of fixing it,but nothing could be done-the crack ran so deeply down the face of the diamond that any effort to remove it would ruin the diamond.
Finally,one jeweler,a simple man from one of the neighboring villages,stepped forward,saying that he would save the diamond.
The king laughed.The greatest jewelers in the world had seen the stone and considered it hopeless,how could a simple jeweler hope to do anything?
Seeing there was nothing to lose,the king informed the jeweler that he could spend a single night with the diamond.If he managed to fix it,he would get great reward.If,however,he did not succeed,a bitter lot would wait for him.
Locked in the room,the jeweler took a long look at the stone.It was true that the crack could not be removed without destroying the precious diamond in the process.What could be done?
The next morning,the jeweler came out with the stone in hand and a smile on his face.
When the diamond was shown,everyone let out a cry of amazement.The crack was not removed,but turned into the stem of a delicate (精致的) rose,the symbol of the kingdom.
The king stood up and hugged the jeweler."Now I truly have my crown jewel!The diamond wasn't perfect until now.It's the best I've seen and the unique in the world!"
21.The king become quite worried whenC.
A.he found the diamond was missing
B.he got to know the diamond was not unique
C.he noticed a thin crack on the diamond
D.he realized the diamond didn't match the crown
22.Why did the king laugh when the simple jeweler offered to save the diamond?B
A.He thought badly of the jeweler.
B.He felt the jeweler was talking big.
C.He believed in the jeweler's skill.
D.He finally found someone to fix the diamond.
23.The simple jeweler succeeded becauseC.
A.he was more skilled than other jewelers
B.he showed more courage to meet the challenge
C.he worked out a creative plan to solve the problem
D.he was good at making designs of diamonds.

10.A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it.Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see.Some last a few minutes before they give in.But others are determined to wait until the last moment.
By the time the children reach high school,something remarkable has happened.A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular,adventurous,confident and dependable.The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early were more likely to be lonely,easily frustrated and inflexible(顽固的).
Actually,the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test.
The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists'concerns.But brain theory can't explain what we wonder about most,like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.
Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman,writer of Emotional Intelligence:when it comes to predicting people's success,brain ability measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as"character".
EQ is not the opposite of IQ.What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one's ability to handle stress,for instance,affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use.Among the ingredients (要素) for success,researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.
While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously,some few fear EQ causes misuse.

66.The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear thatC.
A.the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment
B.emotional intelligence won't show up until adolescence
C.the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success
D.candy can be used to measure a person's emotional intelligence
67.Which of the following is TRUE of EQ and IQ according to the text?D
A.There is no link between EQ and IQ.
B.The higher a person's IQ is,the higher his or her EQ is.
C.Some people can be blessed with lots of both,but some with little of either.
D.Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together.
68.The underlined word"upbeat"in Paragraph 4 probably means"D".
A.kind        
B.floating        
C.excited         
D.optimistic
69.Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?C
A.To amuse both the children and readers.
B.To prove the scientist's wisdom.
C.To introduce the topic of the text.
D.To show us how to do an IQ test.
70.What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?B
A.Information about famous people with high EQ.
B.Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.
C.Some reasons why EQ is relatively new field.
D.Strong demands for basic emotional education.

7.Running on Empty
For almost a century,scientists have assumed,tiredness-or exhaustion-in athletes originates in the muscles(肌肉).Precise explanations have varied,but all have been based on the"Limitations Theory".In other words,muscles tire because they hit a physical limit; they either run out of fuel or oxygen or they drown in harmful by-products (副产品).
In the past few years,however,Timothy Noakes from the University of Cape Town. South Africa,has examined this standard theory.Tiredness,he argues,is caused not by signals springing from overtaxed muscles,but is an emotional response which begins in the brain.The fundamental nature of his new theory is that the brain paces the muscles to keep them well back from the edge of exhaustion.When the brain decides it's time to quit,it creates unbearable muscle tiredness.This"Central Governor"theory remains controversial,but it does-explain many puzzling aspects of athletic performance.
A recent discovery that Noakes calls the"lactic acid paradox"made him start researching this area seriously.Lactic acid is a by-product of exercise,and the increase of it is often mentioned as a cause of tiredness.But when research subjects exercise in certain conditions created artificially,they become tired even though lactic acid levels remain low.
Nor has the oxygen content of their blood fallen too low for them to keep going.Obviously,something else was making them tire before they hit either of these physiological limits. Noakes conducted an experiment with seven cyclists.It has long been known that during exercise,the body never uses 100% of the available muscle fibres (纤维).The amount used varies; but in some tasks such as this cycling test the body calls on about 30%.His team found that as tiredness set in,the electrical activity in cyclist's legs declined-even when they were making a great effort to cycle as fast as they could.
To Noakes,this was strong evidence that the old theory was wrong."The cyclists may have felt completely exhausted,"he says,"but their bodies actually had considerable reserves that they could theoretically tap by using a greater amount of the resting fibres."
This,he believes; is the proof that the brain is regulating the pace of the workout to hold the well back from the point of extreme tiredness.
67,Which of the following is supported by the"Limitations Theory"?B
A.Tiredness is caused by signals from brain.
B.Athletes feel tired when they use up all their energy.
C.The body uses 100% of the muscle fibres in exercise.
D.Athletes become tired though lactic acid levels remain low.
68.Noakes has found out that.C
A.muscle fibres control athletes'movements
B.lactic acid levels remain high in cycling test
C.mental processes control the symptoms of tiredness
D.different exercises use different amount of muscle fibres
69.It is likely that both theories accept that.A
A.lactic acid is produced in muscles during exercise
B.the oxygen content in blood may rise after sports
C.tiredness is a harmful by-product of exercise
D.the energy in human bodies can be
70.What is Paragraph 3mainly about?C
A.The description of a new test.
B.The explanation of the theory.
C.The puzzling evidence of a study.
D.The whole process of the research.
