Ⅳ.阅读理解
A
For centuries, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the body's blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold blooded killer. For example, the police are searching for a cold blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone's life as nothing.
Cold can affect oth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er parts of the body. The expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold of your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being pre president when you understand the situation.
The expression “giv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e someone the cold shoulder” probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you, to someone who has lied about you to others. 21*cnjy*com
A cold fish is not a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold hearted. Now a cold hearted person is someone who has no sympathy. Several popular songs in recent years were about cold hearted men or cold hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers.
“Out in the cold” mean ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise — he was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be.www-2-1-cnjy-com
21.There are ________ expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.
A. 3 B. 4
C. 6 D. 7
答案与解析 C 文中介绍的与cold相 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )关的表达有cold blooded, get cold feet, give someone the cold shoulder, cold fish, cold hearted, out in the cold六个。
22.When you refuse t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by “________”.21教育网
A. I give him the cold shoulder
B. I think he is a cold blooded man
C. I think he is a cold fish
D. I'm likely to get cold feet
答案与解析 A 不跟人讲话、拒人于 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )千里之外,表示对人冷淡,用give someone the cold shoulder表达合适,故选A项。
23.If Sue shows ab ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )solutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will say ________.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
A. she is a cold blooded killer
B. she gets cold feet
C. she is a cold fish
D. she is out in the cold
答案与解析 C 对非洲饥饿的孩子们无动于衷的人不能说是临阵畏缩或是遭受冷落,更不能说是冷血杀手,所以C项“她是冷漠无情的人”符合题意。
24.We can use the e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )xpression “________” to describe a man who abandons or hurts his lover without mercy.
A. cold blooded B. cold shoulder
C. cold feet D. cold hearted
答案与解析 D 根据倒数第二段最后两句,近几年的一些流行歌曲就是关于冷酷的男人或是女人无情地伤害他们的爱人的,所以D项符合文意。
25.The topic of this passage is about ________.
A. the relationship between cold and our body
B. some expressions about friendship
C. some expressions connected with cold
D. how cold weather comes into being
答案与解析 C 结合文章大意 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )及文章第一句话不难得出C项“与冷相联系的常见表达”为正确答案。而本文没有谈论冷和身体的关系,更没有涉及友谊或是寒冷的天气,故排除A、B、D三项。21教育名师原创作品
