　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　Deciding what to watch on TV is a battle of wills that is fought in homes all over the world. According to psychologists (心理学家), it is much more serious than simply deciding between a soap opera and a sports program, or between pop music and politics. This television conflict is part of a bigger power game which goes on in homes, even though most of the players do not realize that they are playing a game at all.

　　“It's such a game as is not easy to notice，” says psychologist Dr David Lewis, “that many people don't even know they're playing it.”

　　Unconsciously, people begin to play the game as soon as they meet their future husband or wife. By the time the couple get married, the rules of game are already formed. The big decision, like where to live and which school to send the children to, are usually joint decision. When it comes to less important things, it's a different matter. Here is just one example of this process at work. A husband looks through a pile of holiday brochures (小册子) and announces his preference: “The South of France”. And his wife quickly agrees before he realizes that the only brochures she gave him were those for the South of France. Similarly, she may decide on how the home should be decorated, but he chooses the new car and decides what the family does at weekends.

　　“Family power struggles are interesting，” says Dr Lewis. “Of course, some people are naturally more dominant (占支配地位的) than others, and the most dominant personality in a family tries to lead. These days, even though so many couples make a special effort to have a true and equal partnership, men generally have a greater need to appear to be in physical control. Women, on the other hand, are not so interested in physical control as in emotional control.

　　On the whole, they're more controlling and can make the man think of something as his idea in the first place.”

　　36. What is the psychologists' opinion about choosing a TV program at home?

　　A. It's likely to cause family quarrels.

　　B. It's an interesting game a family likes to play.

　　C. It's difficult to choose with so many programs.

　　D. It's a matter of power in a family.

　　37. According to the passage, which decision is made by the couple together?

　　A. How to decorate their home.

　　B. Where to settle down.

　　C. What kind of car to buy.

　　D. What to do at weekends.

　　38. What can we learn about family decision­making from the passage?

　　A. Men have the final say in the family.

　　B. Men are much better controlled than women.

　　C. Women are rather skillful in influencing men.

　　D. Women are emotional about important matters.

　　39. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

　　A. Why people fight for power at home.

　　B. Whose finger is on the button at home.

　　C. How family members play games at home.

　　D. What decision family members make together.

　　答案与解析

　　1.C　常用sb./sth. be likely to do或it's likely＋从句，表示“可能”；certain表示“确定的”；probable后常跟that从句表示“很有可能”；be sure to do sth.指“一定做某事，务必去做某事”。D　句意：别灰心，你很快就会适应新环境和不同的思维方式。lose heart“灰心”，是固定搭配；adapt oneself to“使某人自己适应……”

　　A　由题干可以判断出填入的部分与the mold一起在句中作定语修饰the first。the＋序数词(＋名词)的后面，多用不定式作定语。句意：她是我们班里第一个打破常规的人：没有从事教育工作，而是决定成为一名会计师。

　　D 考查名词辨析。句意：他脸上的表情告诉我他对我的答复不满意。expression“表情”；impression“印象”；sight“情景，视力”；appearance“表面，外表”， 故A、B、C三项均不符合句意。B　答句句意：长城的修建是为了抵御敌人。defend against“保卫……免受侵害”。

　　C　由句意“看医生时你最好带点东西读，以防需要候诊”可知应用in case。even if“即便”；as if“好像”；in order that“以便，为了”，均与语境不符，故选C项。

　　B　prevent常用于prevent sb. (from) doing sth.结构，表示“防止，预防”；avoid意为“避免”，后面跟名词或动词的­ing形式作宾语；protect“保护”；allow“允许”。根据句意，“虽然Tyron很生气，但是他头脑很冷静，就不会做不恰当的事情”，即“不会”冲进老板的办公室，所以用avoid最合适。

　　B　句意：他还未来得及冲进房子救他的孩子，屋顶就塌下来了。dash off“匆匆完成”；dash into“冲进”；dash out“冲出”；dash up“跑来”。故B项正确。

　　B　句意：一般来说人们不喜欢被嘲笑，尽管有些例外。on the whole“总的来说”；in general“一般说来”；in total“总共”；in a way“在某种程度上”。故B项正确。

　　D　句意：——你擅长数学或者物理吗？——我既不擅长数学，也不擅长物理。either...or...“……或者……”，答语说数学不好，物理也不好。表示“后者跟前者一样不……”时，常用“nor＋助动词＋主语”，故D项正确。

　　A　句意：——我最好的朋友心情不好。——送她一些花怎么样？表示建议可以用how about，其后要接v.­ing形式。

　　A　句意：传统的解决复杂问题的方法是把它们分成更小的、更容易处理的问题。approach to后加名词或动名词，意为“……的方式/方法”，故选A项。

　　D　greet sb. “迎接某人；问候某人”，此处指比尔开门迎接哈罗德。shout常用shout at sb.；wave常用wave to sb.；shake“摇动；颤动”。

　　A　考查连词otherwise。从句意和句子结构看，这里用otherwise连接并列分句表示转折：“否则，要不然”。

　　B　动词prepare与句子的主语构成逻辑上的主谓关系，且表示的动作发生在谓语动词之前，故用现在分词的完成式表示，非谓语动词的否定式not放在其前。

　　24．D　句意：他不得不离开家园，在另外一个国家住了下来。take over“接受”；take down“记下”；take off“取消，起飞”；take up“开始，着手，进入”。依据句意可知，答案为D项。

　　25．A　“It so happened that...”是固定句型，意为“碰巧……”。

　　26．B　根据下文的内容可知，鞋匠应该是花大量的金钱去购买“鞋钉”，而不是购买metal“金属”；fur“毛皮”；cloth“布”。故答案为B项。
