Week 1 Monday

Task 1:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

(2016·江苏,B)Chimps(黑猩猩) will cooperate in certain ways,like gathering

in war parties to protect their territory.But beyond the minimum requirements as

social beings,they have little instinct (本能) to help one another.Chimps in the

wild seek food for themselves.Even chimp mothers regularly decline to share food

with their children,who are able from a young age to gather their own food.

In the laboratory,chimps don’t naturally share food either.If a chimp is put

in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself or,with no greater effort,a plate that also provides food for a neighbor in the next cage,he will pull at

random—he just doesn’t care whether his neighbor gets fed or not.Chimps are truly

selfish.

Human children,on the other hand,are naturally cooperative.From the earliest

ages,they desire to help others,to share information and to participate in achieving

common goals.The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in

a series of experiments with very young children.He finds that if babies aged 18 months

see an unrelated adult with hands full trying to open a door,almost all will

immediately try to help.

There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help,inform and share

are not taught,but naturally possessed in young children.One is that these instincts

appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train their children

to behave socially.Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the

children are rewarded.A third reason is that social intelligence develops in children

before their general cognitive(认知的)skills,at least when compared with chimps.In

tests conducted by Tomasello,the human children did no better than the chimps on

the physical world tests but were considerably better at understanding the social

world.

The core of what children’s minds have and chimps’ don’t is what Tomasello 2 calls shared intentionality.Part of this ability is that they can infer what others

know or are thinking.But beyond that,even very young children want to be part of

a shared purpose.They actively seek to be part of a “we”,a group that intends to

work toward a shared goal.

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇科技说明文。主要介绍的是通过实验对比了黑猩猩与人类在相互帮助的本能方面的巨大不同。黑猩猩没有相互帮助的本能,根本就不懂合作,而人却从小就知道帮助他人,善于与他人合作,这是人类独有的天性。

1.What can we learn from the experiment with chimps?

A.Chimps seldom care about others’ interests.

B.Chimps tend to provide food for their children.

C.Chimps like to take in their neighbors’ food.

D.Chimps naturally share food with each other.

答案 A [细节理解题。根据第一、二段可知,黑猩猩很少关心其他的黑猩猩,比如第二段中的例子:把邻居的食物占为己有,根本不关心邻居是否有东西吃。]

2.Michael Tomasello’s tests on young children indicate that they ________.

A.have the instinct to help others

B.know how to offer help to adults

C.know the world better than chimps

D.trust adults with their hands full

答案 A [细节判断题。根据第三段中的Human children,on the other hand,are extremely

cooperative.From the earliest ages,they decide to help others可判断出,孩子有帮助他人的本能。]

3.The passage is mainly about ________.

A.the helping behaviors of young children

B.ways to train children’s shared intentionality

C.cooperation as a distinctive human nature

D.the development of intelligence in children

答案 C [主旨大意题。通读全文可知,通过实验,发现黑猩猩没有相互帮助的本能,根本就不懂合作,而人却从小就知道帮助他人,善于与他人合作,这是人类独有的天性。故C项为最佳答案。] 3 Task 2:词汇积累

1.cooperate vi.合作,配合

2.territory n.领土,范围

3.one another彼此

4.decline v.谢绝,减少

5.at random随便地

6.on the other hand另一方面

7.participate in参加,分享

8.no better than不比„„好;几乎等于

Task 3:攻克长难句

1.If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself

or, with no greater effort, a plate that also provides food for a neighbor in the

next cage, he will pull at random—he just doesn’t care whether his neighbor gets

fed or not.

分析:这是一个复合句,主句是he will pull at random,破折号后的句子对主句作进一步的解释;在if引导的条件状语从句中,where引导定语从句,修饰a cage;该定语从句又包含定语从句that also provides food for a neighbor in the next cage,修饰a__plate。

2.He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an unrelated adult with hands full trying

to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.

分析:在that引导的宾语从句中,if引导条件状语从句,aged 18 months作定语,修饰babies;with hands full是with复合结构作定语,修饰an__unrelated__adult。

Week 1 Tuesday

Task 1:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

(2014·浙江,C)Last summer,two nineteenth-century cottages were rescued from

remote farm fields in Montana,to be moved to an Art Deco building in San Francisco.The

houses were made of wood.These cottages once housed early settlers as they worked

the dry Montana soil;now they hold Twitter engineers.

The cottages could be an example of the industry’s odd love affair with “low
