    The strange close understanding between twins is a familiar enough phenomenon. Often they seem to understand each other and share each other’ s emotions to such an extent that one suspects some kind of thought communication.  What is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins’ intellectual development. As they are partly isolated in their own private world, twins communicate less with adults than do other children. The verbal ability of a four-year-old twin is typically six months behind that of a non-twin. The problem can be particularly severe in an underprivileged family, a one-parent family for example, where there is little stimulation for children anyway.  Such children, while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language,often remamn incomprehensible to outsiders and thus at a severe educational disadvantage. The only solution to the problem, cruel though it may seem, is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinary speech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.

    Atwins understand each other very well
    Btwins are slow to learn to talk
    Ctwins are unlikely to do less well at school than other children
    Dthere exists more communication between twins

    BThey communicate with outsiders less than non twins.

    DThey can only understand their own private language.
38. The author probably feels that twins’ problem（   ）.（1分）
    Acan be solved if the adults communicate with them more often
    Bcan not be solved because solution is very cruel

    Have you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings（誤解）？Litle wonder. We often believe we ‘ re more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are, according to Boza Keysar，a pofesor at the University of Chicago. In his recent study, speakers tried to express their meanings using unclear sentences. Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the time. Here’somegood advice to reduce misunderstanding:  (1)Don’t trust what you see from the listener. Listeners often nod, look at you or say “ uhhuh” to be polite or move the conversation along. But it’s easy to consider these as signs of understanding.  (2)Train the editor（編輯）in your head. If you say, “ Beth discusses her problems with her husband,”it’s not clear whether she’ s talking to her husband or about him. Try instead, “ Beth talks toher husband about her problems.” or Beth talks to others about the problems with her husband. “  (3) Ask listeners to repeat your message. Introduce your request by saying “I want to be sure I said that right. “ Questions like “How does that sound?”or“Does that make sense?”may also work.  (4)Listen well. When on the receiving end, ask questions to be sure you’re on the same page.After all, it isn’t just the speaker’ s job to make his speech understood.
40. Why does the writer give us the advice?（1分）
    AWe’ re not skillful enough to make clear sentences.
    BMisunderstanding is damaging our normal lives.
    CMisunderstanding occurs now and then.
    DIt’s impolite to say NO to others.
41. The writer suggests that when talking to others , the speaker should（   ）.（1分）
    Alook directly into his listener’ s eyes
    Bnotice listener’ s signs of understanding
    Cknow that listeners will show him that they understand his words
    Dexpress himself clearly even when he sees signs of understanding
42. By Train the editor in your head, the speakers are advised（   ）.（1分）
    Ato make sure each sentence has only one meaning
    Bto express themselves in long but simple sentences
    Cto discuss problems with their husbands or wives
    Dto get themselves trained by a good editor
43. In the last paragraph, the words ,“ you’ re on the same page”mean that（   ）.（1分）
    Ayou’ re fllowing the speaker closely
    Byour story is wittet on the same page as the speaker’s
    Cyou’re reading the same page as the speaker does
    Dyou should know which page the speaker refers to

    Mr. Smith was a wealthy industrialist , but he was not satisfied with life. He did not sleep well and his food did not agree with him.This sitation lasted for some time. Finally， after several sleepless nights，he decided to consult his doctor. The doctor advised a change of surroundings.“Go abroad,”he said.“But I’m not good foreign language,”said Mr. Smith. “l(fā)t doesn’ t mater,”said the doctor. “It won’t hurt you to talk a little less.Go on a voyage. Take plenty of exercise. Try to reduce your weight.Avoid rich food. ”  Mr. Smith went to Switzeland. He did not know French or German , and had to communicate through gestures.He attended a physical training course. The instructor made him bend his knees, swing his arms, stretch his neck and shake his head rapidly.He had to lie on the ground and raise his right and left legs alermately. After a time his muscles grew hard and firm. He forgot the financial crisis and the importance of raising the level of production. Hе even began to notice individual trees and individual birds.  Finally he returned home. But unfortunately his improvement was only temporary. Soon he was a normal businessman again, worried about his property , his profits, his savings, his advancement in a technological society , and things in general.

    Space is a dangerous place , not only because of meteors but also because of rays from the sun and other stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through,and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat , too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space , but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation. But their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft , if they are inside , do prevent a lot of radiation damage.  Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called “rem”.Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged ;the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage ——a person may feel perfectly well,but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged , and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed（畸形的）children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and ,during the outward and return journeys , the Apollo crew accumulated a large amount of rems. So far , no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere,working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation , but no really effective ones have been found so far.
48. According to the first paragraph,the atmosphere is essetial to man in that（   ）.（1分）
    Ait protects him against the harmful rays from space
    Bit provides suffcient light for plant growth
    Cit supplies the heat necessary for human survival
    Dit screens off the falling meteors
49. We know from the passage that（   ）.（1分）
    Aexposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatal
    Bradiation is avoidable in space exploration
    Castronauts in spacesuits needn’ t worry about radiation damage
    Dthe effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming
50. It can be inferred from the passage that（   ）.（1分）
    Aprotection from space radiation is no easy job
    Bradiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers
    Castronauts will have deformed children or grandchildren
    Dthe Apollo mission was very successful
51. The best title for this passage would be（   ）.（1分）
    AThe Atmosphere and Our Environment
    BResearch on Radiation
    CEffects of Space Radiation
    DImportance of Protection Against Radiation
