25、Communication theory often stresses how speakers should present their material. However, listeners play the same important role. Some of them focus intently on the speaker, while others daydream or whisper to a neighbor. What makes these two kinds of listeners different? Generally speaking, effective listeners have discovered the benefits of paying close attention. Not having experienced the rewards of paying close attention, ineffective listeners continue to wonder why they can’t remember what they “heard” or why they do poorly on tests.
How do effective listeners manage to pay close attention? First of all, they avoid letting poor environments, like an uncomfortable seat, a personal problem, or the speaker’s manners, distract (使分心) them. Instead, they “tune out” anything that will keep them from understanding and remembering what they hear. After leaving a lecture or meeting, they remember what was said, not the room conditions or the poor delivery of the speaker. On the other hand, ineffective listeners who think they are paying attention to the message can be easily daydreaming.
In order to resist probable distractions, effective listeners actively but objectively focus on the message itself. They do not prejudge the speaker as representing an opposite viewpoint, nor do they prejudge the material as boring, too easy, or too difficult. Effective listeners accept the challenge of new ideas. To help themselves become actively concerned with the speaker’s message, effective listeners write down important words and phrases as a reminder of difficult ideas.
Ineffective listeners reject theoretical material; they may pretend to listen but daydream instead to avoid hearing what they don’t agree with or readily understand. Moreover, rather than dealing with meaning itself, ineffective but well-intentioned listeners might be so concerned with taking a lot of notes that they miss the speaker’s main idea. These listeners leave a speech or a class with a notebook full of words that are not connected by any conceptual framework and therefore mean little when referred to later for a test or other purposes.
Clearly, a certain amount of effort is concerned with listening actively, objectively, and openly to new ideas. But as that effort begins to pay off for ineffective listeners, they too will develop this skill as a beneficial lifelong habit.
【1】The underlined phrase “tune out” means ________.
A.deal with
B.think about
C.pick out
D.pay no attention to
【2】In order not to be distracted, effective listeners can do following things EXCEPT ________.
A.objectively focusing on the message
B.accepting the challenge of new ideas
C.trying to copy every word of the speaker
D.avoiding prejudging the speaker or the level of the material
【3】Which of the following statements is close to the writer’s opinion?
A.Listeners should accept the new ideas and write down important words.
B.Listeners can daydream to avoid hearing what they don’t understand.
C.Listeners will develop listening skills if they copy all the words the speaker said.
D.Listeners may remember what was said if they prejudge the speaker’s viewpoint.
【4】The main purpose of this passage is to ________.
A.point out the result of effective listening
B.discuss the methods which we used by a variety of listeners
C.explain the differences between effective and ineffective listeners
D.describe the listening habits of poor listeners
26、When I was in fourth grade, I worked part-time as a paperboy. Mrs. Stanley was one of my customers. She’d watch me coming down her street, and by the time I’d biked up to her doorstep, there’d be a cold drink waiting.
I’d sit and drink while she talked. Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, “Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning,” she’d say. The first time she said that, soda(汽水) went up my nose.
I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I should sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe she’d work it out of her system. So that’s what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while, she seemed to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地).
I finally stopped delivering newspapers and didn’t see Mrs. Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser(募捐活动). She was spooning potatoes and looking happy. Four years before, she’d had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on.
I live in the city now, and my newsboy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how I’m doing. When I don’t say “Fine,” she sticks around to listen to my problems. She’s lived in the city most of her life. She knows about the community. The community isn’t so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask how you’re doing because they care, and not because they’re getting paid to do so. Sometimes it’s good to just smile, nod your head and listen.
【1】Why did soda go up the author’s nose one time?
A.Because he was talking fast.
B.Because he was shocked.
C.Because he was in a hurry.
D.Because he was absent-minded.
【2】Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs. Stanley according to paragraph 3?
A.Because he enjoyed the drink.
B.Because he wanted to be helpful.
C.Because he took the chance to rest.
D.Because he wanted to please his dad.
【3】Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “work it out of her system”?
A.go out from her sadness
B.move out of the neighborhood
C.turn to her old friends
D.speak out about her past
【4】What does the author think people in a community should do?
A.Open up to others.
B.Depend on each other.
C.Pay for others’ help.
D.Care about one another.
27、Are some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence (智力) developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. In some degree, our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no education can make a genius (天才) out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in a rich environment. Therefore, the limits(限度) of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This point of view is now held by most experts.
It is easy to show that intelligence is something that we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people is, the closer their intelligence is likely to be. If we take two strangers by chance from the population, it seems that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we compare two twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relatives like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.
Imagine now that we take two twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory separately where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this shows that environment as well as birth plays an important part. This result is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.
【1】How is man’s intelligence given?
A.At birth
B.Through education
C.Both at birth and through education
D.Neither at birth nor through education
【2】What does the underlined word mean in the first paragraph?
A.稳固 B.确定 C.修理 D.安排
【3】According the passage, if a child is born with low intelligence, what might happen to him later?
A.Become a genius.
B.Still become a genius if he should be given special education.
C.Reach his intelligence limits in rich environment.
D.Never reach his intelligence in his life.
【4】What can we learn from the example of the twins going to a university and to a factory?
A.The importance of their intelligence.
B.The role of environment on intelligence.
C.The importance of their jobs
D.The part that birth plays

I have lost my key but I had a good r【1】 for it.
I was about to see Philadelphia’s greatest citizen, Benjamin Franklin. E【2】 in the town knew him. By accident, I had heard his son William tell a shopkeeper that he and his father were going to fly a kite this day and I wanted to watch the f【3】 man at work.
I followed them to a farm right outside the city and hid behind a tree. They watched the sky, and as storm clouds gathered. Ben tied a string to the kite. Then he looked around for something. “Where is the key, William?” His son looked in his pockets but found no key. “I cannot do the experiment w【4】 a key.” said Ben.
At that moment, I came out with the key to my house. Ben exclaimed, “You have s【5】 the day, young man!” He tied it near the end of the string. Next, he tied a metal wire to the key, which led to a glass jar.
William got the kite flying, as rain began to fall. Before long, we saw a flash of lightning. Did his experiment work? Ben put his hand near the key. An electric spark jumped from the key to his fingers. “We have done it!” he exclaimed. “We proved that lightning is made of electricity. And if it’s not you, I could not have done this.” he said to me. When I got home, I realized I had left my key with Ben. I had helped unlock a s【6】 of nature-but I couldn’t unlock my front door!
