Charles Darwin pointed out that 23__________ all people of all races blush，animals do not. When it came to explaining the reason, he was 24 __________ a loss. That has not stopped others from trying.

One 25 __________ is that blushing started out as a way to show we obey authoritative members of the group. Later, as our social interactions became 26__________ complex, it became involved with higher, self-conscious 27__________ such as guilt, shame and embarrassment. This would seem to put individuals at a disadvantage，but blushing might actually make a person more 28 __________ or socially desirable.

29__________ that women blush more than men，one university researcher suggests that blushing might have evolved as a way for women to 30__________ their honesty to men so as to win their support in raising children. Some zoologists also think blushing could have emerged as a way to foster trust. " If you were to go hunting 31__________ a stone-faced partner，you could never 32__________ what he wants. “he says.

Once blushing became 33 __________ with embarrassment, anyone who did not blush might have been at a disadvantage because we are 34 __________ likely to trust someone who appears never to feel 35 __________ about anything.

B. reply

C. reflection

D. recall

参考答案：A

参考解析：文章主题是人类为什么会脸红。response意为“反应”;reply意为“回复”;reflection意为“反射，倒影”;recall意为“回忆”。根据文章主题，脸红是一种反应。

第22题单选填入(22)处的最佳答案是()。ding

B. forcing

C. encouraging

D. preventing

参考答案：B

参考解析：forbid意为“禁止”;force意为“迫使”;encourage意为“鼓励”;prevent意为“阻止”。根据原文，脸红会暴露自己在说谎。

A. when

B. while

C. since

D. because

参考答案：B

参考解析：这里引用达尔文所说的话。when和while都表示“当……时候”的意思，但while 有“与……相反”的意思，翻译成“然而，却”。since和because表示原因。根据上下文，这里是说人类与动物不一样，人类会脸红，而动物却不脸红。应选择表示相反的词。

第24题单选填入(24)处的最佳答案是()。

A. on

B. in

C. at

D. of

参考答案：C

参考解析：at a loss是固定词组，表示茫然。这部分是说，达尔文指出人类会脸红而动物不会的时候也是茫然的，说不出其原因。

第25题单选填入(25)处的最佳答案是()。

A. suggestion

B. advice

C. solution

D. question

参考答案：A

参考解析：suggestion意为“建议”;advice意为“劝告”;solution意为“解决”;question意为“问题”。达尔文解不开的谜，更多的人想试一试。所谓“试(trying)”就是不肯定。

第26题单选填入(26)处的最佳答案是()。

A. apparently

B. completely

C. awkwardly

D. increasingly

参考答案：D

参考解析：apparently意为“明显地”;completely意为“完全地”;awkwardly意为“危险地，不舒服地”;increasingly意为“日益地”。根据原文，社会在发展，社会交往肯定也是日益复杂。

第27题单选填入(27)处的最佳答案是()。

A. moods

B. senses

C. emotions

D. tempers

参考答案：C

参考解析：mood意为“情绪、心情”;sense意为“感官”;emotion意为“情感”;temper意为“脾气”。原文列举了如guilt(愧疚)、shame(羞愧)、embarrassment(尴尬)等感觉。这些显然不属于sense(感官)和temper(脾气)，排除。mood和emotion的区别在于，mood表示就某种事件或某段时间影响下所产生的心情或情绪，emotion表示主观上的下意识的感觉。原文在分析人类脸红的原因，从人类自身的情感着手。所以，这里应是emotion。

第28题单选填入(28)处的最佳答案是()。

A. privileged

B. embarrassed

C. energetic

D. attractive

参考答案：D

参考解析：privileged意为“享有特权的”;embarrassment意为“尴尬”;energetic意为“充满活力的”;attractive意为“有吸引力的”。根据原文空格后的“or socially desirable(社交上更合适)”判断，attractive(有吸引力的)最恰当：人类的脸红可能使人更具有吸引力或者说社交上更合适。

B. speak

C. tell

D. talk

参考答案：C

参考解析：C say意为“说”;speak意为“发言”;tell意为“告诉”;talk意为“谈话”。根据原文，可直接排除speak和talk。say和tell的区别是，say表示所说的内容，通常陈述说者原话，tell把信息传达给别人。根据原文，你根本不知道他要什么。

第33题单选填入(33)处的最佳答案是()。

B. related

C. contacted

D. associated

四、Reading Comprehension (75 points)Directions: There are four reading passages in this part.Each passage is followed by five questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D.Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET Ⅰ.

June came and the hay (干草) was almost ready for cutting. On Midsummer's Eve, which was a Saturday, Mr. Jones went into Willington and got so drunk at the Red Lion that he did not come back until midday on Sunday. His men had milked the cows in the early morning and then had gone out chatting without bothering to feed the animals. When Mr. Jones got back, he immediately went to sleep on the living-room sofa with the "News of the World" over his face. When evening came, the animals were still not fed. At last, they could stand no longer. One of the cows broke into the door of the storehouse with her horns and all the animals began to help themselves to the grains.

It was just then that Mr. Jones woke up. The next moment he and his four men were in the storehouse with whips in their hands, whipping in all directions. This was more than the hungry animals would bear. Together, though nothing of the kind had been planned beforehand, they jumped upon their masters. Mr. Jones and his men suddenly found themselves being struck with the horns and kicked from all sides. The situation was quite out Of their control. They had never seen these animals act like this before. This sudden rebellion of the creatures, which they were used

to beating and whipping just as they chose, frightened them. After only a moment or two, they gave up trying to defend themselves. A minute later all five of them were in full fright down the road with the animals running after them joyfully.
