As children,according to the Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky,we use private speech to regulate our actions in the same way that we use public speech to control the behavior of others.As we grow older,we don't abandon this system.(39)F.Psychological experiments have shown that his so-called inner speech can improve our performance on tasks ranging from judging what other people are thinking to sorting images into categories.

解答 36-40:GDBFA
36.G  上下文 語境理解題.根據(jù)Talking to ourselves,whether out loud or silently in our heads,is a valuable tool for thought.可知,和自己說話,不論大聲還是默默的在我們的頭上,是一個有價值的用于思考的工具.所以沒有必要 感到尷尬,故此處G符合語境.
37.D上下文 語境理解題.根據(jù)offering herself directions and giving voice to her frustrations.或是告訴自己要做什么,或者表達自己的情緒,可見這些都是孩子在對自己的私下話語,故答案為D.
38.B 上下文 語境理解題.根據(jù)前面一個句子We do a lot of it when we are young我們小時候經(jīng)常對自己私下說話,導致了成年后很少在這樣做了,故答案為B.
39.F 上下文語境理解題.從前面一句As we grow older,we don't abandon this system推出當我們長大時,我們并沒有放棄這個體系,是將它內(nèi)化 了,故答案為F.
40.A 上下文語境理解題.根據(jù)最后一句話You're bound to see an athlete or two encouraging themselves with a phrase or scolding themselves after a bad shot.提到了運動員,所以前面有sports channel,符合語境,故答案為A.

點評 本文是一篇選句填空閱讀,題目主要考查上下文聯(lián)系及文章內(nèi)容理解..做題時學生應仔細閱讀原文,把握文章主要內(nèi)容,聯(lián)系文章上下文內(nèi)容并結合所給選項含義,從中選出正確答案,一定要做到有理有據(jù),切忌胡亂猜測.

10.Professor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact these days.The term is"networked individualism".This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings.How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time?You need other people for networks.
Here is what Professor Wellman means.Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail,our social networks included live interactions with relatives,neighbors,and friends.Some of the interaction was by phone,but it was still voice to voice,person to person,in real time.
A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people,electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction.However,a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that's a good thing.Why?
In the past,many people were worried that the Internet separated us from reality and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer.But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true.The Internet connects us with more real people than expected-helpful people who can give advice on careers,medical problems,raising children,and choosing a school or college.About 60million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.
Thanks to the computer,we are able to be alone and together with other people-at the same time!

45.The underlined phrase"networked individualism"probably means that by using computers peopleD.
A.stick to their own ways no matter what other people say
B.have the rights and freedom to do things of their own interest
C.do things in their own ways and express opinions different from other people
D.a(chǎn)re able to keep to themselves but at the same time reach out to other people
46.According to the Pew study,what do many people rely on to make major life decisions?A
A.Networks.
B.Friends.
C.Phones.
D.Parents.
47.It can be inferred from the Pew study thatC.
A.people have been separated from each other by using computers
B.the Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonely
C.the Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communication
D.a(chǎn) lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing
48.Which would be the best title for this passage?C
A.We're Alone on the Internet.
B.We're Communicating on the Internet.
C.We're Alone Together on the Internet.
D.We're in the Imaginary World of the Internet.
