【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文。文章講述了一項新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)撒謊雖

然不會像匹諾曹故事中那樣讓鼻子變長，但是會出現(xiàn)一些細微的面部

表情變化，而這項發(fā)現(xiàn)可以應用到司法執(zhí)法的過程中。

1.Whydoestheauthormention“Pinocchio"atthebeginning?

A.Totellafairystory.

B.Towarnusnottolie.

C.Tointroducearesearch.

D.Toinspireustodoubtoldbeliefs.

選C。推理判斷題。匹諾曹故事的作用，而非故事寓意，故從結構作用

上分析可知用匹諾曹是為了引出主題研究。故選C。

2.Accordingtotheresearch,whatmighthappenifyoutellalie?

A.Yournosegetslonger.

B.Yournosebecomessmaller.

C.Yourtemperaturegetshigher.

D.Yourtemperatureremainsstable.

選B。細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段內容可知，人撒謊過后鼻尖降溫、額頭

升溫，而這種溫度的變化會導致皺鼻子(slightlyshrink)的動作，也就是

鼻子會稍微縮小，故選B。

3.Whatcanwelearnabouttheresearch?

A.Researchersconductthestudybyinterviewing.

B.Researchersdesigndifferenceliesforparticipants.

C.Thethermalliedetectorwillproveapopularone.

D.Thethermalliedetectormayassistlawenforcement.

選D0推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段內容可知，這項技術有望投入到司

法執(zhí)法過程中，綜合全文內容，可知這項研究中的最大成果是測謊儀

的應用O

【文章大意】本文是一?篇議論文。西方教育工作者提出〃STEAM〃的概念,

說明〃藝術〃和其他的核心專業(yè)同樣重要。中國教育部也發(fā)布了準則,

要求高校提供更多與藝術相關的課程，學生需要獲得一定數(shù)量的藝術

學分才能畢業(yè)。藝術教育可以培養(yǎng)他們的自信、團隊合作精神及思維

習慣等。

4.Whatisthefunctionofthefirstparagraph?

A.Tointroduceafamousartist.

B.Tosummarizethewholepassage.

選C。推理判斷題。文章第一段借用西班牙著名畫家PabloPicasso說過

的話Everychildisanartist.Theproblemhehasishowtoremainanartist

oncehegrowsup.”是為了引出下文的關于孩子應該接受藝術教育的話

題。故選C項。

選Bo細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段中“Collegesanduniversitiesarerequired

toprovidemoreart-relatedcoursesandstudentsneedtoearnacertain

numberofartcreditsinordertograduate.”可知，根據(jù)中國教育部發(fā)布

的準則，高校學生需要獲得一定量的藝術學分才能畢業(yè)。故選B項。

6.Whatisthebesttitleofthepassage?

A.Everychildisanartist

B.Bringingarttolife

C.Learningfromtheartists

D.Lifeisart

選B。主旨大意題。文章主題是應該發(fā)展藝術教育，讓藝術重回我們的

生活。所以短文的最佳標題是〃讓藝術重回我們的生活〃。故選B項。
