Except for one. He often walked through the plant. He checked out product quality. He stopped for a brief word—usually no more than a “hello.” He wasn’t outgoing. He didn’t display any of the qualities typically associated with a “leader”. Yet we liked him. In a 1992 University of Pittsburgh study, researchers had four women attend a number of different classes. Their attendance varied: one woman might attend every class; a different woman might attend only a few. What didn’t vary was their behavior. None of the women spoke in class or spoke to other students. At the end of the term, students were asked which woman they liked best. Who “won”？ Women who attended the highest number of classes. According to the researchers, “Mere exposure had weak effects on familiarity, but strong effects on attraction and similarity.” Or in non－researcher－speak: If I see you frequently, I naturally like you more. That’s the power of showing up. Knowing someone will show up in the future also matters. In a 1967 University of Minnesota study, researchers gave study participants profiles of two people and told them that one would be a partner in future discussion groups. When asked, the participants said they liked their future partner more. Even though the profiles were almost identical. Want your team or your customers to like you more? Show up. Drop in. Drop by. Send a brief note. Make a quick phone call. You don’t have to say or do much. Then, be consistent in your behavior. In time, people will expect you to drop in or drop by, whether in person or virtually. Anticipating future contact will make them like you more. 1. What does the first paragraph serve as? A. An introduction.　　　 B. A background. C. A comment. D. An explanation. 2. According to the 1992 study, what helps make a student welcome? A. Answering questions frequently. B. Greeting others enthusiastically. C. Behaving more like others. D. Attending classes more often. 3. What did the University of Minnesota study find? A. Familiarity contributes to likability. B. Identical behaviors enhance likability. C. Future partnership increases likability. D. Virtual contacts benefit likability. 4. What is the text mainly about? A. Power of likability. B. Research on likability. C. Definition of likability. D. Application of likability. B Pieter Bruegel’s 1565 realistic painting The Harvesters hangs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. “The work describes farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are，” Ghent University biologist Ive De Smet says. “Nowadays, if you walk through a wheat field, you basically see wheat is about knee－high, which is a consequence of selective breeding(培育) from the second half of the 20th century.” De Smet says he’s teaming up with art historian David Vergauwen of Amarant to look at things where they can spot differences in shape, in color, and in size. Wheat is just one example of how historical artwork can help track the transformation of food crops over time. Friends since childhood, their interest in plants in artwork began with a visit to the Hermitage Museum in Russia—where they noticed an odd－looking watermelon in an early－17th－century painting by Flemish artist Frans Snyders. “So if you think of a watermelon, you cut it through, it should be dark red on the inside. But that one appeared to be pale and white.” De Smet assumed the painter had done a poor job. But Vergauwen said, “This is one of the best painters ever from that era. So if he paints it like that, that’s the way it must have been.” Other paintings showed that both red and white watermelons were raised during the 17th century. The team hopes to set up an online research database of historical plant artwork. They create a social media hashtag(主题标签) for it. Anyone could send pictures of relevant artwork and details of plants when they visit a museum or exhibit through the hashtag. But, they add, the sources need to be realistic. “If you’re going to use, for example, Picasso to understand how a pear looked, you might be misled.” 5. What can we learn from De Smet’s words in Paragraph 1? A. Humans have mainly fed on wheat since 1565. B. Selective breeding affects agricultural structure. C. Wheat has gone through great changes in height. D. The scene in The Harvesters may be unbelievable. 6. What is Vergauwen’s attitude to the watermelon painted by Frans Snyders? A. Curious. B. Disapproving. C. Doubtful. D. Favorable. 7. Why was the social media hashtag created? A. To collect more source paintings. B. To encourage people to focus on art. C. To advertise their research database. D. To share some historical plant artwork. 8. What is the text mainly about? A. Ancient paintings focus on food crops. B. Old art reveals agricultural information. C. Two men create a database of plant artwork. D. Plants today are different from their ancestors. 四.完形填空 “I’m going to tell you a story.” All eyes look up.

Who ‘won’？ Women who attended the highest number of classes.”可知，根据1992年的研究，上课更频繁让学生受欢迎。 3. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“When asked, the participants said they liked their future partner more.”可知，明尼苏达大学的研究发现未来的伙伴关系会增加亲和力。 4. 答案　B 解析　主旨大意题。通过首段的引言、1992年匹兹堡大学的一项研究以及1967年明尼苏达大学的研究都可知，本文主要介绍的是增进联系可增强好感度。 答案与解析 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。Pieter Bruegel的《收割者》描绘了农民在收割几乎和他们一样高的小麦的情景。Frans Snyders画的西瓜的瓤是白色的。这些作品看似奇怪，却提供了一定的农业信息。 5. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The work describes farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are” 和“Nowadays, if you walk through a wheat field, you basically see wheat is about knee－high”可知，1565年Pieter Bruegel画的《收割者》中的小麦几乎与人同高，但如今，田地里的小麦才大约及膝高，由此可知，小麦的高度发生了很大的变化。 6. 答案　D 解析　观点态度题。根据第三段中的“But Vergauwen ... if he paints it like that, that’s the way it must have been.”可知，Vergauwen认为Frans Snyders是那个时代最好的画家之一。所以，如果他把西瓜画成那样的话，那么西瓜(当时)就一定是那个样子的。由此可推知，Vergauwen对Frans Snyders的画是肯定的。 7. 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段的“The team hopes ... They create a social media hashtag for it ... visit a museum or exhibit through the hashtag.”可知，他们希望建立一个历史植物艺术品在线研究数据库，并为此在社交媒体上创建了一个主题标签。人们在参观博物馆或展览时，可以通过主题标签发送相关艺术品和植物细节的照片。故他们创建主题标签的目的是为数据库收集更多画作。 8. 答案　B 解析　主旨大意题。阅读全文尤其是第一段的尾句“Wheat is just one example of how historical artwork can help track the transformation of food crops over time.”可知，本文通过画家Pieter Bruegel和Frans Snyders的两幅画作来说明古艺术品能揭示农作物发生的变化，故B项能概括主旨。 四．完形填空 答案与解析 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。“我”认为，讲故事是最能让学生们更快地安静下来并放下手机的方法。自“我”任教以来，在每年的2月，“我”都会与“我”的学生们分享这个故事。虽然这个故事会让“我”暂时失去作为他们老师的权威，却能达到很好的教育效果。 1. 答案　B 解析　根据句中的chatty可以推断，此处所选词与其有关，根据本句的句式结构“Nothing ... more effectively than”可知，讲故事最能让一群爱闲聊的青少年更快地安静下来并放下手机，因此选B项。 2. 答案　A 解析　根据文章首句可知，这是一个承诺。因此选A项。 3. 答案　C 解析　根据下一句“Their eyes widen.”及语境可知，此时“我”停下来是为了使故事更具有戏剧效果。因此选C项。 4. 答案　A 解析　“我”的目的就是吸引他们的注意力，让他们听“我”讲，此时“我”达到了目的，have在此处意为“使处于(某种状态)”。因此选A项。 5. 答案　D 解析　自“我”任教以来，在每年的2月“我”都会讲这个故事，且这个故事可以改变学生们对“我”的看法，故可推断这是这个故事的影响力所在，因此选D项。 6. 答案　C 7. 答案　B 解析　讲这个故事暂时让“我”失去作为他们老师的权威，留下的是一名感情受伤的11岁的小女孩。因此第6题选C项，第7题选B项。 8. 答案　C 解析　“我”在六年级时不可救药地喜欢上了David。在一场聚会上，“我”收到了一张卡片，“我”颤抖着打开了信封，因此选C项。 9. 答案　D 解析　根据下文“the signature ... David”可知，“我”收到的卡片正是来自“我”所喜欢的David，所以“我”欣喜若狂，因此选D项。 10. 答案　B 解析　“我”看到了David的签名，高兴得几乎要晕过去了。因此选B项。 11. 答案　C 解析　根据上文可知，这件事太完美了，以至于让“我”感觉太不真实了，因此选C项。 12. 答案　A 解析　根据上文叙述可知，“我”在给学生们讲故事，故事到了最精彩的部分，所以学生们身体前倾凑过来听，因此选A项。 13. 答案　D 解析　“我”收到的卡片中这样写道，“给我们班最丑的女孩子”，学生们听到这里，惊讶得张大了嘴，有些人甚至低头看着他们的桌子，似乎在为“我”感到尴尬。因此选D项。 14. 答案　A 解析　根据上文内容可知，自那以后，这一行字动摇了“我”一直以来对自己仅有的一点儿自信，因此选A项。 15. 答案　B 解析　尽管有这样一段令人心碎的经历，“我”还是挺了过来。因此选B项。 五．应用文写作 参考范文 Dear_Bob， Hearing you’re planning an activity called Cultural China, I’m writing to recommend Chinese calligraphy as its focus. Chinese calligraphy is a traditional art form of writing, which has developed into various categories over the centuries and reflects the Chinese wisdom. If you want to hold the activity successfully, it’s advisable to provide classic works, thus enabling viewers to appreciate this type of art. Besides, prepare Chinese brushes and paper to let students have a try. A display of their works can be mounted later. I do hope my suggestions can be of help. Yours， Li_hua 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
