III.Reading Comprehension(30 points,2 points for each item)
从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案,并在答题纸上将相应的字母涂黑。
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Who talks more,women or men? The seemingly conflicting evidence is
resolved by the difference between what I call public and private speaking.More men feel
comfortable doing "public speaking," while more women feel comfortable doing "private" speaking.
Another way of capturing these differences is by using the terms report-talk and rapport-talk.
For most women, the language of conversation is primarily a language of rapport: a way of
establishing connections and negotiating relationships. Emphasis is placed on displaying
similarities and matching experiences. From childhood, girls criticize their friends who
try to stand out or appear better than others. People feel their closest connections at home,
or in places where they feel at
home -- with one or a few people they feel close to and comfortable with -- in other words,
during private speaking. But even the most public situations can be approached like private
speaking.
For most women,talk is primarily a means to preserve independence and negotiate and maintain
status in a hierarchical(等级制度的) social order.This is done by exhibiting knowledge and
skill,and by ho1ding center stage through verbal performance such as torytelling,joking,
or conveying information.From childhood,men learn to use talking as a way to get and keep
attention.Therefore,they are more comfortable speaking in 1arger groups made up of people
they know 1ess well,in the broadest sense,"public speaking”. But even the most private
situations can be approached like public speaking,
more like giving a report than establishing rapport.
21.A similar term for "private talking" is ___________.
[A]report-talk
rapport-talk
[C]persuasive talk
[D]women's talk
22.When women talk,they tend to________.
[A]admire their friends who stand out
make others feel at home
[C]approach public situations like private talking
[D]seek close relationship with other speakers
23. Men talk in order to________.
[A]make new friends
share experience
[C]argue with others
[D]attract attention
24. The purpose of this passage is to _______.
[A]contrast the male and female talking styles
prove that men talk more effectively than women
[C]analyze why men and women are different
[D]draw people's attention to the difference between men and women
25. Which of the following is true?
[A]Men talk more than women.
Men feel more comfortable making a public speech than women.
[C]Men are more knowledgeable than women.
[D]Men are more independent than women.
Passage Two
Questions 26 t0 30 are based on the following passage.
The best example of how associations influence eating is that we often eat not because
we're hungry but because it's "lunchtime," because foods smell good, or because our
friends are eating.
More evidence that associations influence eating comes from
marketing and advertising pressures to sell foods by offering huge
servings. For example, movie theatres offer an extra large box of
popcorn(爆玉米花),which, at almost 900 calories, is equivalent to a
