39、in which he explains how he protects them.(分数:70.00)A.PhysicalB.Emotional C.ReasonableD.Chemical解析:词义辨析题。physical 意为“身体的,物理的”,emotional 意为“情绪的”,reasonable 意为“合理的,有道理的”,chemical 意为“化学的”。由句中表并列的短语 as well as“都,也”可知其前后内容在语义上应是并列的,即与 logical thought 对等的应为 emotional reactions,因此选 B。A.processes B.programs
40、C.plansD.products解析:词义辨析题。结合句意“情绪反应和逻辑思维_都会对大多数人的行为造成影响”来看选项,可知 A“过程”最符合文意。其他选项:B“项目”、C“计划”和 D“产品”都不能与 logical thought连用。A.someB.oneC.other D.another解析:语法结构题。该空需填入代词作主语,指代的情况与 one instance 相对应,可先排除 some 和one。根据下文提到的 both 可知此处应属于 one.the other 的情况,故选 C。one.another 意为“一个另一个”,涉及的对象通常是三者以上。A.attributesB
41、.attitudesC.behaviors D.reactions解析:词义辨析题。attribute 意为“属性,品质”,attitude 意为“态度,看法”,behavior 意为“举止,行为”,reaction 意为“反应”。文章第一段已经提出了全文的主旨,即情绪和思维影响人们的行为,接下来的内容都应该为这一主旨服务。结合句意“这两个例子都说明这样一个事实:_来源于经历”可知,C 项最符合文意。A.impressive B.fragileC.ambiguousD.depressive解析:词义辨析题。impressive 意为“给人印象深刻的”,fragile 意为“易碎的”,ambig

44、度,部分原因是孩子从他所_的成人那里_态度”可知,A 项最符合文意。A.knowB.preferC.hearD.respect 解析:词义辨析题。填入的词与 whose word 构成动宾结构,结合句意(见第 8 题解析)和常识来看选项:know 指对成人世界的了解,而实际孩子对成人并不了解;prefer 指“更喜欢”,文中没有把孩子和成人的语言进行比较;hear 包含的范围太广,成人的语言有很多但并不一定他们都要听。因此应是 respect,受他们尊重的人的语言才能够影响他们,故选 D。A.belongedB.performedC.occurred D.told解析:短语搭配题。由句中的并列
45、连词 or 可知,前部分 has only been touched upon at home“只有在家里简单涉及”和后部分 has possibly never _ to them before“之前可能从未”在语义上是并列的,两者的主语都是 subject,结合句意“另一个原因是学生们在学校通常会深入钻研某一科目,这一科目他们只有在家里简单涉及过,或以前从未_过”来看选项,可知 C 项最符合文意。occur to意为“发生,想到”。A.previously B.usuallyC.easilyD.reluctantly解析:词义辨析题。previously 意为“先前,以前”,usually
46、 意为“经常”,easily 意为“容易地”,reluctantly 意为“不情愿地”。根据句意“对于一个_不了解墨西哥的孩子来说,老师对于这一知识的处理方法将会大大影响孩子对墨西哥人的看法”并结合选项,应选 previously。A.whoB.thatC.whatD.which 解析:语法结构题。分析句子结构,该句的主语为 media,谓语为 are,因此可知填入的词应和介词through 共同引导定语从句修饰 media,四个选项中只有 which 符合。A.innumerable B.formidableC.imaginableD.inevitable解析:词义辨析题。innumerab
47、le 意为“无数的,数不清的”,formidable 意为“强大的,令人敬畏的”,imaginable 意为“可想象的,可能的”,inevitable 意为“不可避免的”。下文提到的 social studies,science matters of health and safety 等都是培养健康态度的方式,由此可知,这些方法是很多的,因此选 A。A.momentB.atmosphere C.thingD.condition解析:词义辨析题。moment 意为“瞬间,时刻”,atmosphere 意为“氛围,气氛”,thing 意为“事物”,condition 意为“情况,条件”。结合句意
