解答 36--40 CEBAG
36．C 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)下文From 18-25，according to I．Q．scores；  but you are wiser and more experienced with increasing age．可知，按照智商得分，從18歲到25歲，隨著年齡增長，你會(huì)更聰明和更有經(jīng)驗(yàn)．上文應(yīng)是：你什么時(shí)間最聰明．故選C．
37．E 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)上文your memory begins to go down你的記憶力開始下降，及下文Your vocabulary at the age of 45，for example，is three times as great as then you graduated form college你的詞匯量增多．中間缺少一個(gè)過渡句，即：你其它方面的智商則上升．故選E．
38．B 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)下文You have the best physical sense of yourself from 15 to 24； the best professional sense form 40 to 49可知，15歲至24歲之間你的身體感覺最好；40歲至49歲之間你對自己的職業(yè)感覺最佳．上文應(yīng)是：人們什么時(shí)候最幸福？故選B．
39．A 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)下文Mosart wrote a symphony and four sonatas by the age of 8，and Mendelssohn composed his best known work A Midsummer Night′s Dream，at 17，but most of the great music was written by men between 33 and 39．從這種例子中可以看出是人最具有創(chuàng)造性的時(shí)候．故選A．
40．G 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)上文most Nobel Prize winners did their top research in their late 20′s and 30′---creative people continue to produce work with high quality throughout their lives．可知，大多數(shù)諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)獲得都在二十幾歲和三十幾歲做出了他們重要的研究，創(chuàng)造性的人在他們的一生中會(huì)繼續(xù)做出高質(zhì)量的工作．下文應(yīng)是：對于那些狀語良好的頭腦是沒有極限的．故選G．

點(diǎn)評 七選五題型看似簡單，實(shí)際上有時(shí)完全作對并不容易，需要方法和分析能力及足夠的耐力，有必要進(jìn)行專門練習(xí)．首先，快速瀏覽一遍七個(gè)備選答案，先確定哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)適合放在文章的什么位置．其次，快速瀏覽文章，確定文章體裁，抓住文章結(jié)構(gòu)，分析篇章結(jié)構(gòu)，找出各段的主題句或主旨大意．其三，注意各選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)的句子銜接手段，尋找句中銜接標(biāo)志詞，七選五備選答案中有兩個(gè)多余的選項(xiàng)，會(huì)對文章中兩個(gè)空的選擇構(gòu)成干擾，這時(shí)要特別細(xì)致地比對相似選項(xiàng)．最后，用代入法，檢查答案是否合理，將所有選擇答案放回空白處，通讀全文，檢查文章內(nèi)容是否語義連貫合理、緊扣主題，語篇結(jié)構(gòu)是否通順連貫、具有一致性、合乎邏輯，寫作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用語是否恰當(dāng)貼切，從而判斷選擇的答案是否正確．
