主旨大意題真題題組A(2017全國(guó)，D)The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are. Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and wellbeing among older people，leading to them being more isolated(隔絕) and inactive. Led by Professor Phil Blythe，the Newcastle team are developing invehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life. These include custommade navigation(導(dǎo)航) tools，night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains： “For many older people，particularly those living alone or in the country，driving is important for preserving their independence，giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others. ”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to. ”Dr Amy Guo，the leading researcher on the older driver study，explains： “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems. ”For example，most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly，we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. Were looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that. “We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解決方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel. ”文章大意：本文是一篇科普說(shuō)明文，介紹了智能交通團(tuán)隊(duì)建立移動(dòng)實(shí)驗(yàn)室，研究老年人開車存在的問(wèn)題和難點(diǎn)，幫助老年人安全駕駛。What is the purpose of the DriveLAB？ _C_ATo explore new means of transport.

But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days，a brush was made from camels hair. There were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead. He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush. The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long，the cat began to look ragged(蓬亂). His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing. The_cats_lot_was_about_to_improve. That year，one of Benjamins cousins，Mr. Pennington，came to visit. He was impressed with Benjamins drawings. When he went home，he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes. He also sent six engravings(版畫)by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen. In 1747，when Benjamin was nine years old，Mr. Pennington returned for another visit . He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamins parents if he might take the boy back to Philadelphia for a visit. In the city，Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings. The boy began a landscape (風(fēng)景) painting. William Williams，a wellknown painter，came to see him work. Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home. The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little，having been a poor student. But he later said，“Those two books were my panions by day，and under my pillow at night. ” While it is likely that he understood very little of the books，they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nineyearold boy decided then that he would be an artist. 文章大意：本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了美國(guó)著名藝術(shù)家本杰明韋斯特是如何開始他的藝術(shù)生涯的。What is the text mainly about？ _C_ABenjamins visit to Philadelphia.

Using expansive gestures with open arms makes us feel more powerful，crossing your arms makes you more determined and lying down can bring more insights(領(lǐng)悟). So if moving the body can have these effects，what about the clothes we wear？ Were all well aware of how dressing up in different ways can make us feel more attractive，sporty or professional，depending on the clothes we wear，but can the clothes actually change cognitive(認(rèn)知的) performance or is it just a feeling？Adam and Galinsky tested the effect of simply wearing a white lab coat on peoples powers of attention. The idea is that white coats are associated with scientists，who are in turn thought to have close attention to detail. What they found was that people wearing white coats performed better than those who werent. Indeed，they made only half as many errors as those wearing their own clothes on the Stroop Test (one way of measuring attention ). The researchers call the effect “enclothed cognition”，suggesting that all manner of different clothes probably affect our cognition in many different ways. This opens the way for all sorts of clothesbased experiments. Is the writer who wears a fedora more creative？ Is the psychologist wearing little round glasses and smoking a cigar more insightful？ Does a chefs hat make the resultant food taste better？From now on I will only be editing articles for PsyBlog while wearing a white coat to help keep the typing error count low. Hopefully you will be doing your part by reading PsyBlog in a cap and gown (學(xué)位服). 文章大意：本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，主要講述了“具衣認(rèn)知”理論，該理論認(rèn)為人們的衣著會(huì)影響人們的認(rèn)知表現(xiàn)。What is the main idea of the text？ _C_ABody movements change the way people think.

BHumorous. CFormal.

UNESCO(United Nations Educational，Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music，its significance，and its potential as a unifying(聯(lián)合) voice across cultures. Despite the celebrations，though，in the US. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older，and the music has failed to connect with younger generations. Its Jason Morans job to help change that. As the Kennedy Centers artistic adviser for jazz，Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz，make the music more accessible，and preserve its history and culture. “Jazz seems like its not really a part of the American appetite，” Moran tells National Public Radios reporter Neal Conan. “What Im hoping to acplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black or white anymore. Its actually colorful，and its actually digital. ”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music cant be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move，because the way the world works is not the same，” says Moran. Last year，Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Wallers music for a dance party，“just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music，” says Moran. “For me，its the recontextualization. In music，where does the emotion(情感) lie？ Are we，as humans，gaining any insight(感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts？ Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context，” says Moran，“so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster. ”文章大意：本文介紹了舉辦第一屆國(guó)際爵士樂(lè)日的宗旨、當(dāng)前爵士樂(lè)面臨的挑戰(zhàn)以及如何讓爵士樂(lè)重新流行的設(shè)想。Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day？ _D_ATo remember the birth of jazz.

BThe production of jazz growing faster. CJazz being less popular with the young. DThe jazz audience being larger. 解析：考查詞意猜測(cè)。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，畫線詞that指代上段“Despite the celebrations，though，in the US. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older，and the music has failed to connect with younger generations”的內(nèi)容，即爵士樂(lè)聽眾的數(shù)量減少并且趨于老齡化，不受年輕人喜歡的現(xiàn)狀。故選C。What can we infer about Morans opinion on jazz？ _C_AIt will disappear gradually. BIt remains black and white. CIt should keep up with the times. DIt changes every 50 years. 解析：考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第五段的內(nèi)容尤其是“It has to continue to move，because the way the world works is not the same”可知，由于時(shí)代在改變，人們的娛樂(lè)方式已經(jīng)發(fā)生改變，所以爵士樂(lè)應(yīng)該隨著時(shí)代改變，才能吸引更多的聽眾。故選C。Which of the following can be the best title for the text？ _A_AExploring the Future of JazzBThe Rise and Fall of JazzCThe Story of a Jazz MusicianDCelebrating the Jazz Day解析：考查主旨大意。本文介紹了為保護(hù)爵士樂(lè)，聯(lián)合國(guó)教科文組織設(shè)立國(guó)際爵士樂(lè)日。縱觀全文內(nèi)容尤其是第三至第六段中提到的杰森莫蘭對(duì)爵士樂(lè)的看法及希望可知，A項(xiàng)“探索爵士樂(lè)的未來(lái)”作本文標(biāo)題最佳。模擬題組A(2018福州市畢業(yè)班質(zhì)檢)Steve Brosnihan is the “resident cartoonist” at the Childrens Hospital，who wanders from room to room drawing and chatting and doing whatever else he can think of to cheer up the sick children. During one visit，he was saying good night to a teenage patient when he had a bright idea. Steve told the teenager to look out of the window after he left. Outside，Steve flickered(閃爍) his bike light up toward the hospital. To his surprise，the teen responded，flickering his own room lights right back. Every night after that，Steve flickered his light，and more and more kids flickered back. When he mentioned it to a friend working at a restaurant，the owner said he wanted in too. He started to flicker the restaurant sign for one minute every night at 8： 30. Soon enough，the customers started joining in with flashlights and cell phones.

Even boats on the river join in to give their bright goodnight wave to kids who are going through frightening situations and sleeping in a strange place. “It is all I look forward to basically all day，” says Abigail Waldron，aged ten. “It just shows you that somebody is helping you through your whole experience in the hospital. ”“It would be very hard not to do this，” says Steve，“once you start. ” The most powerful of all，he adds，es from the families of children who have died. They continue to return to the hospital to flicker a light outside in support of children who are still patients. 文章大意：本文是一篇記敘文，主要講述了Steve Brosnihan在兒童醫(yī)院外向醫(yī)院閃爍車燈使生病的孩子振作起來(lái)的故事，后來(lái)更多的人參與到閃爍燈光的活動(dòng)中。Why did Steve Brosnihan flicker his bike light？ _B_ATo get light for the hospital.
