16.In ancient Egypt,the pharaoh (法老)treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace,if he brought good news.(71)G  
That spirit spread over today′s conversations.Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing.As we walked out the door,a smiling neighbor said,"Oh,boy,bad day for a picnic.(72)B"I wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut better and sandwiches.Not for his stupid weather report,but for his smile.(73)DAs I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter,the sales agent said with a broad smile."Oh,that bus left five minutes ago."Dreams of head-cutting!
It′s not the news that makes someone angry.(74)E  Big winners know,when delivering any bad news,they should share the feeling of the receiver.
Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy,I would have appreciated his warning.Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left,I probably would have said,"Oh,that′s all right.(75)A"Big winners,when they hear bad news,deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded (被轟炸的) person is sure to have.

A.I will catch the next one.
B.The weatherman says it′s going to rain.
C.Receiving bad news requires great courage.
D.Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus.
E.It′s the unsympathetic attitude with which it?s delivered.
F.Delivering bad news properly is important in communication.
G.However,if the exhausted runner brought unhappy news,his head was cut off.

分析 本文屬于議論文閱讀,作者通過(guò)這篇文章主要向我們描述了好消息使人高興,壞消息令人氣憤的主題,但是對(duì)于壞消息的表達(dá)是需要技巧的,表現(xiàn)出真誠(chéng)的同情遺憾能讓聽(tīng)到消息的人不那么惱怒,幸災(zāi)樂(lè)禍則會(huì)刺激他們.

解答 71-75GBDEA
71.G 考查上下文聯(lián)系.前面提到跑步者帶來(lái)好消息的后果,所以后面連接的是傳遞壞消息的后果,也就是被砍頭.故選G.
72.B 考查上下文聯(lián)系.根據(jù)后面的"Not for his stupid weather report"可知,前面提到的是天氣預(yù)報(bào).故選B.
73.D 考查上下文聯(lián)系.根據(jù)后面的"Oh,that bus left five minutes ago"可知,我正趕著去公共汽車站.故選D.
74.E 考查上下文聯(lián)系.根據(jù)前文內(nèi)容可知,作者本身已經(jīng)很窘迫了,對(duì)方還要損他,可知這是一種沒(méi)有同情心的態(tài)度.故選E.
75.A 考查推理判斷.根據(jù)常理,售票員變相指責(zé)作者,作者應(yīng)當(dāng)會(huì)氣得去坐下一班車.故選A.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 七選五"這樣的題型,主要目的在于"考查考生對(duì)文章的整體內(nèi)容和結(jié)構(gòu)以及上下文邏輯意義的理解和掌握.解題時(shí)最主要的兩個(gè)步驟就是1.理清文章的邏輯和結(jié)構(gòu),2.在所給的原文中找出關(guān)鍵詞或者說(shuō)是線索詞.文章的整體思路能幫助你在答案中篩選出符合邏輯的選項(xiàng),關(guān)鍵詞則能幫助你確定更多的細(xì)節(jié),排除相近的選項(xiàng).這些技巧多練練就能孰能生巧.

6.A classic joke goes like this:A nurse rushes into an exam room and says,"Doctor,doctor,there is an invisible man in the waiting room."The doctor says,"Tell him I can't see him."Pretty simple,right?
Here is how I tell it:"A nurse-her name is Joyce-feels a presence in the waiting room.She looks around but sees nothing.She jumps up from her desk,carefully replaces her chair,and runs down the hallway to the doctor's office.She knocks on the door.No response.He's not there.Where can he be?She continues down the hall,admiring a picture of an 18th-century Mississippi boat along the way."By the time,my audience has left,but I go on."She bursts into the exam room and says,‘Doctor,doctor!'The doctor,I should mention…"

My uncle's different."Okay,this is a good one.Ready?No,really,ready?Okay,‘A nurse…'Got it?A nurse?Okay,ready?‘A nurse rushes into an exam room and says:Doctor,there's an invisible man in the waiting room.'Now,this is where it gets funny.Ready?'No one is ever ready,so they leave before he gets to the funny part.
No one in my family has ever finished this joke.
Next time you see my family and someone is telling a joke,do yourself a favour:Make yourself invisible.

7.Imagine this:You're at the movies seeing the latest box-office hit.The leading actor Chases down(找到) the film's bad guy before winning over the beautiful leading lady.What does he do next?He sucks on a cigarette.
What's wrong with this picture?Doesn't the beautiful woman see her hero's yellow teeth?Doesn't she smell his smoky breath?And wouldn't the good guy have trouble chasing,since smoking causes a person to cough?
But you don't see any of that when someone smokes cigarettes in the movies.And there is a lot of smoking in movies.Actors light up in more than 50percent of youth-rated (G,PG,PG-13)movies,according to the American Legacy Foundation,which aims to put an end to smoking among young people.That means that Hollywood is showing 14 billion images of smoking to young people every year.
All that exposure to on-screen smoking can influence teens to smoke.The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) argues that 44percent of teens who begin smoking do so because they've seen smoking in movies.The CDC reports that teens are two to three times more likely to start smoking after seeing repeated smoking scenes in movies than teens who are lightly exposed to smoking in movies.
Several organizations are working to remove smoking in youth-rated movies.And adults are not the only ones who care about this issue.Many teens are actively involved.Livia Clandorf,16,of Chatham,New York,is a member of Reality Check,an organization that educates teens about what it considers to be the manipulative(巧妙處理的)practices of tobacco companies.Livia participated in an event called a"movies stomp(跺腳)."Reality Check rents out a movie theater and screens a youth-rated film that shows smoking.Every time audience members see smoking,they stomp their feet and show disapproval by shouting"boo".

28.What is the picture you are asked to imagine like according to the author?D
A.It's touching
B.It's beautiful
C.It's frightening
C.It's Unreasonable
29.What does the underlined part"light up"in paragraph 3mean?B
A.Guide with a light.
B.Begin to smoke.
C.Show pleasure.
D.Provide light.
30.What can be inferred from the CDC's words?C
A.Over 50 percent of teens smoke.
B.Teens should watch more movies.
C.Many movies cause teens to smoke.
D.Teens are less likely to smoke than adults.
31.When will participants in a"movies stomp"stomp their feet?D
A.When they are active.
B.When they are excited.
C.When they feel like smoking.
D.When they see smoking scenes.
