It would then join a wild flock and chatter away in the trees，its words being learned by younger birds in the flock.The older ones would be unlikely to start learning. When chicks are born, they hear the words being spoken by the older birds and grow up repeating the phrases.And so it continues, generation after generation.Mr.Robinson said that because of a drought in the western regions of New South Wales, flocks of wild birds“speakers”among themhave been flying to Sydney, where more food is available, and have been hanging around suburban gardens. From the tree tops in gardens, from chimney pots and lamp posts, the flocks have been talking away, leaving many people wondering if their minds were playing tricks on them.“These birds are very smart and very social, meaning that communication and contact is important between them，” said Mr.Robinson.“I just hope a pet bird that's been taught dirty words doesn't join a flock because we don't want to hear that kind of thing going around the back gardens.”【語篇解讀】 很多悉尼居民可以在自家的花園中聽到一群野生鸚鵡在樹梢上對他們說，“你好”“出什么事了”，這是為什么呢？1When people heard a flock of birds say “Hello there！” , they felt_.Athere was something wrong with their mindsBthey had drunk some wineCthey were in a world of parrotsDthey heard people speaking解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段、第三段以及倒數(shù)第二段的信息可知，人們在聽到野生鸚鵡說話時感到很詫異，以為自己的大腦出了什么問題。答案A2Flocks of wild bird “speakers” have been flying to Sydney because_.Athey are following some escaped pet parrotsBit is easy for them to find food in SydneyCthere are fewer birds left in New South WalesDthey are on their way of migration解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文章倒數(shù)第三段可知，這些會說話的野生鸚鵡從新南威爾士州飛到了悉尼，原因是新南威爾土州大旱，缺少食物，而悉尼有很多食物。答案B3Which of the following gives the correct order of events given in the passage?aPeople hear a bird in a tree say“Hello there！”bThe pet parrot escaped from its cage.cA flock of wild parrots learned to speak from the escaped“speaker”dA pet parrot picked up some sentences from its owner.eThe pet parrot joined a flock of wild birds.Ah, c, d, a, e Be, a, c, d, bCd, b, e, c, a De, b, c, a, d解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段和第四段的信息可知，C項(xiàng)符合文章所陳述的事實(shí)的順序。答案C4We can learn from the passage that_.Aparrots like to learn to speak human languageByounger birds are most likely to learn the language from the escaped parrotsCparrots can learn to speak from each other, whether old or youngDparrots flock together because they speak the same language解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文章第四段的第二、三、四句可知，幼鳥更有可能跟逃出來的會說話的寵物鸚鵡學(xué)習(xí)人類的習(xí)慣用語。答案BBIn 1890 William James, the American philosopher and physician and one of the founders of modern psychology, defined psychology as “the science of mental life” and this definition provides a good starting point for our understanding even today. We all have a mental life and therefore have some idea about what this means, even though it can be studied in rats or monkeys as well as in people and the concept remains difficult to understand.Like most psychologists, William James was particularly interested in human psychology, which he thought consisted of certain basic elements: thoughts and feelings, a physical world which exists in time and space, and a way of knowing about these things. For each of us, this knowledge is primarily personal and private. It comes from our own thoughts, feelings and experience of the world, and may or may not be influenced by scientific facts about things. For this reason, it is easy for us to make judgments about psycho1ogical matters using our own experience as a standard. We behave as amateur psychologists when we offer opinions on complex psychological phenomena. However, problems arise when two people understand these things differently. Formal psychology attempts to provide methods for deciding which explanations are most likely to be correct, or for determining the circumstances under which each applies. The work of psychologists helps us distinguish between inside information, which is subjective, and may be prejudiced and unreliable, and the facts: between our predictions and what is “true” in scientific terms.Psychology, as defined by William James, is about the mind or brain, but although psychologists do study the brain, we do not understand nearly enough about its workings to he able to comprehend the part that it plays in the experience and expression of our hopes, fears, and wishes, or in our behavior during experiences as varied as giving birth or watching a football match. Indeed, it is rarely possible to study the brain directly. So, psychologists have discovered more by studying our behavior, and by using their observations to obtain hypotheses (假設(shè)) about what is going on inside us.【語篇解讀】 雖然被譽(yù)為“美國現(xiàn)代心理學(xué)之父”的威廉·詹姆斯給出了心理學(xué)的定義，但是這種抽象的理論研究仍然存在許多難以洞察的現(xiàn)象。5The first paragraph is mainly about_.Athe founder of modem psychologyBthe definition of psychologyCthe complexity of psychologyDthe influence of psychology解析主旨大意題。本段第一句開門見山地交代了中心話題，后面進(jìn)行了深入分析，所以本段的大意是”心理學(xué)的定義”。答案B6From Paragraph 2，we can know that problems arise because_.Aof the difference between inside information and the factsBof different thoughts and feelings about psychologyCpeople usually make judgments based on their own ideasDamateur psychologists cannot use scientific terms解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的“For this reason，it is easy for us to make judgements.However, problems arise when two eople understand these things differently.”可推斷之所以出現(xiàn)問題是因?yàn)槿藗兺ǔＳ米约旱挠^點(diǎn)作出判斷。答案C7According to the passage, psychologists study the brain mainly_.Ain a direct wayBwith their own experienceCby observing how it worksDby watching people's behavior解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的最后一句可知心理學(xué)家主要是通過觀察人們的行為對大腦進(jìn)行研究。答案D8Which of the following can be the first sentence in the fourth paragraph?APsychology is also about the ways people use their mental abilities to operate in the world around them.BWilliam James is considered to be the greatest psychologist in the 1890s.CPsychology suggests that living beings adapt to a changing environment so that they can survive.DIt is important for psychologists, as well as ordinary people, to be, aware of the reasons.解析推理判斷題。第四段應(yīng)該承接的是第三段的內(nèi)容，根據(jù)第三段第一句前半部分中的內(nèi)容可推測A項(xiàng)與文章結(jié)構(gòu)最吻合。答案A
