Happy birthday Mr Dickens (P4)
1. B。本文主要讲的是狄更斯对整个世界的影响,故选B
2. C。由第五段“he not only put forward the idea of snow at Christmas, but also painted a picture of glowing (炽热的) warmth – “home enjoyments, affections and hopes”.”以及第六段“Dickens can be said to have almost single-handedly created the modern idea of Christmas.”可知答案为C
3. D。由倒数第二段“He helped popularize the term “red tape” to describe situations where people in power use needless amounts of bureaucracy (官僚作风) in a way that particularly hurts the weaker and poorer members of society.”可知red tape的意思是官方办事时的繁文缛节,所以D项为最佳选项。
4. A。由最后一段“Dickensian” has now become a powerful word for describing an unacceptable level of poverty.”可知deprivation是用来形容“an unacceptable level of poverty”,故选A
 
IQ workout boosts brains (P5)
1. A。由第二段“People used to assume that a person’s IQ (intelligence quotient) was unchangeable.”可知A正确。
2. B。由第三段“This was seen to grow and become denser in the brains of people whose IQs improved greatly.”可知B项正确。
3. D。由第四段“The more you work on your short-term memory, the better you will become at reasoning and solving problems independently.”可知D项为答案。
4. D。根据第四段“trying to recognize or retell something that you have seen or heard can help raise your overall brain power”、第五段“People can also work on improving their attention span”以及“by drawing a circle with one hand and a square with the other while tracing a circle on the floor with one foot”、第六段“A good night’s sleep will also help improve your concentration.”可知D正确。
 
Miss Popular (P6)
1. A。文章的前三段对作者自己和Brittany分别进行了描述,告诉读者两人是截然相反的两种人。第三段的前两句提到了“我尽力不想让自己受到别人注意”,“而别人的优秀或是抢了Brittany的风头都会引起她的对抗”,所以作者应该是尽力不想和Brittany起冲突。
2. B。从第四段得知B正确,而Brittany是故意唆使那个男生邀请作者参加舞会的,所以A不对。C文中没有提到。文中虽然说到Brittany总是第一个被球队挑上,但并没有说这是因为她的优秀,所以D也不对。
3. D。从文中尤其是第五段可知,作者行为很低调但是一直在默默努力,想要成为比Brittany优秀的人。所以AC都不对。文中虽然提到了作者有点自卑,这不是作者进步的动力,所以B也不对。
4. C。从最后一段的第三句话可知,作者以前觉得Brittany对她只有坏的影响,但是现在她意识到,其实Brittany那时也只是个不能明辨是非的孩子。正是因为Brittany作者才会像现在这样谦逊。
