Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) Section A

Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.

Let’s all stop judging people who talk to themselves. New research says that those who can’t seem to keep their inner monologues(独白) in are actually more likely to stay

on task, remain 26 better and show improved perception capabilities. Not bad, really, for some extra muttering.

According to a series of experiments published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology by professors Gary Lupyan and Daniel Swignley, the act of using verbal clues to 27 mental pictures helps people function quicker.

In one experiment, they showed pictures of various objects to twenty 28 and asked them to find just one of those, a banana. Half were 29 to repeat out loud what they

were looking for and the other half kept their lips 30 . Those who talked to themselves found the banana slightly faster than those who didn’t，the researchers say. In other

experiments, Lupyan and Swignley found that 31 the name of a common product when on

the hunt for it helped quicken someone’s pace, but talking about uncommon items showed no advantage and

14

slowed you down.

Common research has long held that talking themselves through a task helps children learn, although doing so when you’ve 32 matured is not a great sign of 33 . The

two professors hope to refute that idea, 34 that just as when kids walk themselves

through a process, adults can benefit from using language not just to communicate, but also to help “augment thinking”.

Of course, you are still encouraged to keep the talking at library tones and, whatever you do, keep the information you share simple, like a grocery list. At any 35 , there’ s still such a thing as too much information.

26. 【解析】F。空格前的 remain

为系动词，因此空格处需要填入一个形容词；根据前面的句意“……更有可能坚持做一件事”，可知 focused 最为符合，表示“保持全神贯注”，因此本题选 F。

27. 【解析】L。根据空格前的 to

可判断空格处应填入动词原形，根据句意，“使用口头提示来记忆图像”，可知选项 L 符合。

28. 【解析】0。空格前是量词 twenty，因此空格处需填入一个名词复数；再由前边的“In one experiment”可知这是一个实验，所以这里选择 volunteers （志愿者）最为合适，故本题选 0。

29. 【解析】H。空格前后分别为 be 动词 were 和介词 to，因此空格处需要填入一个动词的被动语态；根据句意，“一半人被

要大声地重复他们要找的东西，”可知 instructed （通知， 指导）最为合适，因此本题答案选 H。

30. 【解析】J。根据句子结构可判断空格处需要填入一个形容词。再由 the other half 对应的是前边的 Half， 可知这里的情况和前边的不同，前边说 repeat out loud （大声地重复），后边自然就是要表达“不说话” 的意思，keep one’s lips sealed 即“闭上嘴巴、不说话”的意思，故本题选 J。

31. 【解析】M。空格前的 that 引导的是宾语从句，空格与后面的名词词组 the name of a common product 共同充当宾语从句的主语，因此空格处应填入动词的-ing 形式，根据句意可判断 uttering 更为合适，故本题选 M。

32. 【解析】A。空格所在句是一个现在完成时态，空格前后组成谓语动词 have matured，因此空格处实际上并不缺成分，只可能填入一个副词来修饰动词 matured，根据单词意思，这里应选 apparently。

33. 【解析】C。根据空格前边的 a great sign of 可知，空格处缺少一个名词；再根据句意， “当你足够成熟时，自言自语并不能显示出你的 _”，可知这里填入 brilliance 更为合适。故本题选 C。

34. 【解析】 D。空格前边是一句完整的话，空格后是 that 从句，由此判断空格处

填入动词的-ing 形式，作为前边句子的伴随状语，并引导后面的宾语从句；分析选项，动词的-ing 形式只剩下 claiming 这一个词，故本题选 D。

35. 【解析】N。空格处需要填入一个名词，与前边的 At any

构成介词词组；结合整篇文章的大意，此处填入 volume 最为合适，故本题选 N。

Section B

Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.

Rich Children and Poor Ones Are Raised Very Differently

[A] The lives of children from rich and poor American families look more different than ever before. [B] Well-off families are ruled by calendars, with children enrolled in ballet, soccer and after-school programs, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. There are usually two parents, who spend a lot of time reading to children and worrying about their anxiety levels and hectic schedules.

[C] In poor families, meanwhile, children tend to spend their time at home or with extended family. They are more likely to grow up in neighborhoods that their parents say

aren’t great for raising children, and their parents worry about them getting shot, beaten up or in trouble with the law.
