Like friendship， so the belief went， hair seemed to be everlasting. George Washington even gifted his hair to some of his close friends， including fellow founding father Alexander Hamilton.(到18世 纪，朋友们开始交换一缕头发，头发降解的速度非常 缓慢。就像友谊一样，人们的信念是这样的，头发似 乎是永恒的。乔治·华盛顿甚至将他的头发送给了 他的一些密友，包括同为开国元勋的亚历山大·汉密 尔顿。)”可推知，人们认为交换一缕头发象征着永恒 的友谊，因为头发降解很慢，就像友谊一样似乎是永 恒的。] 4.C [主旨大意题。通读全文， 尤其是第一段中“One of the ways people have marked these bonds is by ex- changing gifts. Here are the stories of the symbols and traditions that have honored friendships through- out history and around the world.(人们庆祝这些关系 的方式之一是交换礼物。以下是历史上和世界各地 尊重友谊的象征和传统的故事。)”可知，文章主要讲 述了几个世纪以来，不同的物品和传统在不同时期成 为了友谊的象征，如16世纪伊拉斯谟送的绘画、书籍 和古币， 18、19世纪爱尔兰的克拉达戒指，18世纪交 换的一缕头发，19世纪的友谊胸针，20世纪末的友谊 手链等，所以文章主要论述不同历史时期象征友谊的 物品和庆祝方式。由此可推知， C选项“The history of friendship symbols(友谊象征物的历史) ”最适合作 文章标题。] B.[语篇解读]这是一篇说明文。本文主要探讨了人 际关系的重要性、网络互动对人际关系的影响以及“社 交小吃”的概念和危害。 5.C [推理判断题。根据第一段“Many times， that op- portunity is n't taken； we ar en't about to have an in- depth conversation with the waitress who asks for our order. But connection is always theoretically possible， and that's true whether we're interacting online or face-to-face.”可知， 女服务员的例子表明， 我们失去了 很多建立关系的机会。] -38 参考 6.A [细节理解题。根据第三段“However， using the Internet to make up for being lonely just makes you lonelier； using the Internet to actively seek out con nection has the opposite effect.(然而， 用互联网来弥 补孤独只会让你更孤独；使用互联网积极寻找联系会 产生相反的效果。)”可知，通过网络来弥补孤独可能 会让你更孤独，孤独不会得到缓解。] 7.D[细节理解题。根据第三段“However， using the Internet to make up for being lonely just makes you lonelier； using the Internet to actively seek out con- nection has the opposite effect.(然而， 用互联网来弥 补孤独只会让你更孤独；使用互联网积极寻找联系会 产生相反的效果。) ”、第四段“Research has found that technology-mediated interactions...and increased de pression post-Facebook use.”以及第五段“That kind of passive usage is a good example of‘social snac king'.(这种被动用法是‘社交零食'的一个很好的例 子。)”可知，每个周末和妈妈视频聊天，这与妈妈产生 互动，属于积极利用网络，所以是“社交零食”的 例外。] 8.A [词句猜测题。根据最后一段“When we compare our messy lived experiences... happiness， and well being.”以及后文“This effect is exacerbated when we consume people's digital lives without interacting with them， making it all too easy to miss the less photo genic moments of their lives.”可知， 上文提到我们将 自己混乱的生活经历与他人选择的自我表现相比较 时，我们很可能会遭受自卑、快乐和幸福的痛苦，推测 我们消费人们的数字生活而不与他们互动时，这种影 响会恶化，导致我们很容易错过他们生活中不那么上 镜的时刻， 故划线词意思是“恶化”， 与 worsened意义 相近。] C.[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项 科学研究，研究表明面部表情丰富的人在社交中有显著 优势，这种优势可以转化为具体的社交利益。文章最后 指出，对于大多数人来说，让自己的脸反映内 的状态 和意图可以引发更热烈的反应。 9.B [主旨大意题。根据第二段“The study， led by E i thne Kavanagh， a research fellow at NTU's School of... even over time periods up to four months.”可 知，本段主要介绍了研究发现人们在谈话中面部动作 的多少存在显著差异，而且是一种稳定的个人品质。 因此，本段主要在讲这项研究的发现。] 10.D [推理判断题。根据第三段中“In a negotiation task， more expressive individuals are more ...a tool for building good relationship and smoothing over con- flicts.”可知， 在谈判中， 面部表情可能是建立良好关 系和缓和矛盾的工具，帮助有表现力的人获得更大利 益。因此，面部表情在谈判环境中可能作为一种解决 分歧的策略。 11.D [词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Expressive ness is also linked to being seen as more‘readable'， suggesting that a lively face makes one's intentions and mental states easier for others to decipher. (表情 答案 答案 丰富也与被认为与更‘可读’有关，这表明一张生动的 脸让人的意图和精神状态更容易被decipher。)”中 "Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more ‘readable',”可知，丰富的表情更“可读”，即更容易被 理解和解读，所以“一张生动的脸更容易被人解读意 图和精神状态”。划线词decipher与interpret同义， 意为“解读”。] l2.B[推理判断题。根据最后一段“The findings chal- lenge the 'poker face'common belief...can invite warmer reactions.”可知，研究表明面部表情丰富的人 在社交中有显著优势，所以对于大多数人来说，让自 己的脸反映内心的状态和意图可以引发更热情的反 应。因此作者可能建议我们要学会像一本打开的书 一样，不要隐藏自己的情感和意图，要通过面部表情 表达出来。] Ⅱ.完形填空 [语篇解读]这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者一直 生活在荷兰，但在美国与人情感交流的经历让他意识到 美国和荷兰的情感交流目的不同，美国重视夸赞，荷兰 重视坦诚 1.A[考查副词词义辨析。句意：在荷兰的环境下，我

One of the ways people have marked these bonds is by exchanging gifts. Here are the stories of the symbols and traditions that have honored friendships throughout his tory and around the world. In the 16th century， Dutch theologian Erasmus offered his friends paintings， books， and ancient coins， which became a kind of currency of friendship among early modern humanists. By the 18thand19th centuries in Ireland， the Claddagh ring had gained attention as a sym- bolof both love and friendship：the heart on the ring represents(代表)love， while the clasped hands represent friendship. By the 18th century， friends were exchanging locks of hair， which degrades very slowly. Like friendship， so the belief went， hair seemed to be everlasting. George Washington even gift ed his hair to some of his close friends， including fellow founding father Alexander Hamilton. Throughout the 1th century， friends exchanged friendship brooches(胸针) . They some times featured ivy flowers， which Victorians associated with loyalty， and the phrase， “Nothing can separate me from you.”As one advertisement for friendship brooches said in 1913， the brooch's circular shape was， “like friendship， endless”. By the end of the 20th century， a new friendship symbol and gift-giving practice took hold： friendship bracelets， which tend to be brightly colored and woven. No one knows exactly where friendship bracelets came from or how the tradition started， but they may have their roots in woven bracelets from Central America. All these show an idea that'sbeen aroundforever：It'sgreat to find someone who under stands you in this big world， and it's something worth celebrating. 1.What did Erasmus offer his friends in the 16th century? A.Ivy flowers and woven bracelets. B.Paintings， books， and ancient coins. C.Friendship bracelets and locks of hair. D.Claddagh rings and friendship brooches. 2.What can we know about the Claddagh ring in Ireland? A.It was only worn by men. B.It was expensive and hard to get. C.It was made of gold and diamonds. D.It represented both love and friendship. 3.What can be inferred about the tradition of exchanging locks of hair? A.It was a way to show long life. B.It was a practice limited to the 18th century. C.It was a common practice only among the wealthy. D.It was believed to symbolize everlasting friendship. 4.What's the best title for the text? A.How celebrities make friends B.How people celebrate friendship C.The history of friendship symbols D.The importance of celebrating friendships —57 B Every time two people talk to eachother， an opportunity for relationship growth is unfolding. an oppo Many times， that opportunity is n't taken； we ar en't about to have an in depth conversation with the waitress who asks for our ar der. But com nei on is always horetiraly possble and hats true whether we're interacting online or face-to-face. Close relationships are the bread and butter of happiness and even health. Loneliness is a stronger predictor of death rate than smoking multiple cigarettes a day. If we want to understand the role technology plays in our well-being， we need to start with the role it plays in our relation ships. And it turns out that the technology-mediated interactions that lead to positive outcomes are exactly those that are likely to build stronger relationships. Spending your time online by sched- u ling interactions with people you see day in and day out seems to workout in increased social in tegration. However， using the Internet to make up for being lonely just makes you lonelier； using the Internet to actively seek out connection has the opposite effect. Research has found that technology-mediated interactions that don't really address our close relationships don't seem to do us any good-and might， in fact， do us harm. Passively scrolling (刷屏) through your Facebook feed without interacting with people has been linked to decreased well-being and increased depression post-Facebook use. ace b That kind of passive usage is a good example of“social snacking” Like eating junk food， social snacking can temporarily satisfy you， but it's lacking in nutritional content. Looking at your friends'posts without ever responding might make you feel more connected to them， but it doesn't build relationships. Passive engagement has a second downside as well： social comparison. When we compare our messy lived experiences to others'selected self-presentations， we are likely to suffer from lowered self-esteem， happiness， and well-being. This effect is exacerbated when we consume people's digital lives without interacting with them， making it all too easy to miss the less photo- genic moments of their lives. 5.What does the example of the waitress imply? A.Waitress s are often disrespected. B.Public places enhance relationships. C.Many relationship-building chances are lost. D.In-depth conversations frequently take place. 6.What might be the result of making up for loneliness through the Internet? A.Loneliness will not be relieved. B.Interaction skills will improve. C.More connections will be made. D.Relationships will be strengthened. 7.Which of the following is an exception to“social snacking”? A.Reading a friend's posts in silence. B.Watching online videos constantly. C.Checking Facebook to pass the time. D.Video chatting with Mom every weekend. 8.What does the underlined word“exacerbated”probably mean in the last paragraph? A.Worsened. B.Weakened. C.Realized. D.Improved. C Are you an open book， your face broadcasting every passing emotion， or more of a poker face， not showing what you are feeling? Scientists at Nottingham Trent University say that wearing your heart on your face， could actually give you a significant social advantage. The study， led by Eithne Kavanagh， a research fellow at NTU's School of Social Sciences， involving over 1， 300 participants， noticed striking variations in how much people moved their faces during conversations. Importantly， this expressiveness emerged as a s table individual qual- —58 ity.People displayed similar levels of facial expressiveness across different contexts,with differ- ent social partners,and even over time periods up to four months. The researchers say that facial expressiveness is linked to personality,with more agreeable individuals displaying more lively faces.Facial expressiveness can also translate into concrete so- cial benefits.In a negotiation task,more expressive individuals are more likely to secure a larger slice of a reward.The researchers suggest that for agreeable folks,dynamic facial expressions may serve as a tool for building good relationship and smoothing over conflicts.Across the board,the results point to facial expressiveness serving an "affiliative()function,"or a so- cial glue that develops liking and smoother interactions. Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more "readable",suggesting that a lively face makes one's intentions and mental states easier for others to decipher.Beyond frequency of facial movements,people who employ facial expressions more strategically to suit social goals,such as looking friendly in a greeting,are also more well-liked. The findings challenge the "poker face"common belief that a still and unemotional appear- ance is always most advantageous.Instead,they suggest that for most people,allowing one's face to mirror inner states and intentions can invite warmer reactions.As the researchers con- clude,"Being facially expressive is socially advantageous."So,the next time you catch yourself making lines on your forehead,or flashing a smile,know that your face just might be working overtime on your behalf. 9.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning the study?
