44.B.考查形容词词义辨析 根据下文可知,此处指不同出生顺序的孩子在家庭中用各自"不同的(different)"方式获得优势.
45.A.考查形容词词义辨析 根据该空后的do everything correctly可知,最大的孩子总是努力做得"完美(perfect)".
46.A.考查形容词词义辨析 根据前一句可知,最小的孩子习惯了别人给予自己,所以他们可能更"关心(concerned about)"自己而不是别人.
47.C.考查名词词义辨析根据该段第一句中的gain an advantage in the family可知,此处填advantages.

59.C.考查名词词义辨析根据上文中的change the effects of birth order on personality可知,此处填personality.
60.C.考查代词词义辨析人类很复杂,但那并不意味着我们不能从出生顺序理论中学到"一点东西(something)"

点评 完型填空,解题时要抓住文章的脉络,一定要读懂全文,弄清文章要表达的思想,注意前后段落之间的关系.答题中,一定要认真分析,注意选项与上下文的关系,与前后单词的关系.对于一时没有太大的把握的题可以放到最后再来完成,因为有时答案可以从下文内容体现出来.答完后再通读一篇文章,看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺,语意连贯.

19.In the animal kingdom,weakness can bring about aggression in other animal.This sometimes happens with humans also.But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people.I see it every day when people hold doors for me,pour cream into my coffee,or help me to put on my coat.And I have discovered that it makes them happy.
From my wheelchair experience,I see the best in people,bur sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily.They don't get to see this soft side of others often,we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness,which includes a lot of pretending.But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that's in them.
Last month,when I was driving home on a busy highway,I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual.People behind me began to get impatient and angry,with some speeding up alongside me,horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me.At the moment I decided to do something I had never done.I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.
No more angry shouts and no more horns!
When I put on my flashlights,I was saying to other drivers,"I have a problem here.I am weak and doing the best I can."And everyone understood.Instead of getting impatient and angry,they waited,knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.
Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don't feel that way.More often it would be better if we don't pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.

41.The author has discovered that people will feel happy whenA.
A.they offer their help           
B.they receive others'help
C.they feel others'kindness      
D.they show their weakness
42.The author feels sad sometimes becauseD.
A.he has a soft heart               
B.he relies much on others
C.some people pretend to be kind    
D.some people fail to see the kindness in others
43.What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?B
A.They speed up to pass.
B.They waited with patience.
C.They tried their best to help.
D.They put on their flashlights too.
44.In this passage,the author advises us toC.
A.handle problems by ourselves     
B.accept help from others
C.admit our weakness             
D.show our bravery
45.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?B
A.A Wheelchair Experience.
B.Weakness and Kindness.
C.Weakness and Strength           
D.A Driving Experience.

19.Are you working on your typing skills to make you become a more efficient worker?That may be all for nothing as Intel believes that we will be able to manage our computers with our brains by 2020.
Intel and its research partners are studying how the brain acts when it thinks.For example,scientists have found that people's brains react in a similar way when they are asked to think of a bear.Through some equipment that can also find this sort of brain activity,Intel thinks that it will be able to read and translate this into an input system tanks to an implantable chip in the brain.
"We are trying to prove you can do interesting things with brain waves."Intel research scientist Dean Pomerleau told Computerworld."Eventually people may be willing to be more devoted to brain implants."Even if thinking about a bear isn't enough to show that you want to copy something,Intel still thinks that there is a future in suing your brain instead of the keyboard."If we can get to the point where we can find specific words,you could mentally type,"he added."You could compose characters or words by thinking about letters flashing on the screen."
While this may all sound impractical or even inconvenient for present time,Intel thinks that it's possible.
"I think human beings are very adaptive,"said Andrew Chien,vice president of research and director of future technologies research at the Intel Labs."If you had told people 20years ago that they would be carrying computers all the time,they would have said,‘I don't want that.'Now you can't get them to stop.There are a lot of things that have to be done first but I think implanting chips into human brains is possible."
Make good use of your mouse and keyboard set-up before they're old-fashioned.

64.What can be known about Intel from the passage?D
A.it is researching how our brains manage our computers.
B.it is working on how to improve people's typing skills.
C.It is finding how the brain reacts when it thinks of a bear.
D.It is studying the relation between what the brain thinks and how it acts.
65.From what Dean Pomerleau said,we can learn thatC.
A.brain implants are not accepted now
B.people have no interest in the research
C.mentally typing will probably be a real fact
D.new things need a long time to be accepted
66.What Andrew Chien said can prove thatD.
A.everything is possible in the world
B.man has great power to face difficulties
C.society is changing from time to time
D.man is very good at accepting new things
67.What does the last paragraph implay?B
A.Everything should be used to the full.
B.Mouses and keyboards won't exist in the future.
C.Our brains can take the place of computers.
D.Some new kinds of mouse and keyboard will appear.
