【解析】
【原文】W: I think I’m catching a cold. What do you do when you have a cold
M: Well, if I can, I go to bed. A good long sleep is the best cure as far as I’m concerned.
W: Seriously, I can’t afford to rest at the moment. There will be an important meeting tomorrow morning, and now I have to prepare for it.
M: Then Plan B is to have some lemon juice and honey in hot water, along with some medicine.
W: I suppose I’ll have to try that. It sounds better than nothing.
M: The truth is, there’s no cure for the common cold. People will give you all sorts of advice — have some chicken soup or take a hot shower, but really you just have to wait until it goes away.
W: Colds aren’t so bad if they only last two or three days. But I hate it when they last for a week or more.
M: I suppose a lot of it depends on your general health. A fit person will probably recover quicker than an unfit person.
W: Yes, I guess you’re right. I think I need to set aside some time for exercise every week.

【解析】
【原文】M: A teacher gave his students a test and most of them managed to answer the questions until they read the last one. It asked, “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school ” The students thought that this question was some kind of joke. They had seen the cleaning woman many times each day in school. She didn’t look strong and she was a tall middle-aged woman with dark hair, but how would they know her name All of the students handed in their test paper, unable to answer the last question. Just before the class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward the results of the test. “Absolutely,” said the teacher. He went on to say, “In your lives and careers, you will meet many people and they are all important individuals. They each deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say ‘Hello’.” Over the following days, each of the students paid much attention to finding out the name of the cleaner and introducing themselves to her. They learned that the cleaner’s name was Dorothy, and they never forgot the lesson that everyone who plays a part in society deserves our respect.
第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)

Experience space with zero gravity flights
The dream of experiencing the weightlessness of space with a zero-G flight has come true in states such as New York, California, Florida and more this year. Specially trained pilots perform aerobatic maneuvers(特技飞行) to keep you floating in space, a feeling no longer only for astronauts.
Climb North America’s new via ferrata Rocky Mountains, Colorado
If a trip with a challenge is what you’re looking for, then consider North America’s newest and highest “via ferrata”. Via ferrata is a method of rock climbing with ladders, fixed steps and cables allowing non-mountaineers a leg up. No rock climbing experience is necessary to climb 12,900 feet to the top on this protected climbing course with a guide.
Travel with chimpanzees(黑猩猩), Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda
Many of us started to rethink our relationship to nature. Be like Jane Goodall and go on a journey with endangered chimpanzees in Uganda’s jungle. You will be putting your tourism dollars toward helping protect the animals through a series of protection projects with Jane Goodall Institute.
Hike to the Iceland’s erupting volcano(活火山), Iceland
In this once-in-life-time trip, you can hike or take a helicopter ride over the Fagradalsfjall volcano eruption in Geldinggadalur, which has been going on since March. Book this trip fast to catch the eruption because no one knows how long it will continue, or try ice climbing Skaftafell, the highest mountain in Iceland-no experience necessary.
21. Where can we both get close to and help nature
A. Travel with chimpanzees in Uganda.
B. Hike to the Iceland’s erupting volcano.
C. Climb North America’s new via ferrata.
D. Experience space with zero gravity flights.
22. Which of the following statements is true
A. One can experience zero gravity alone.
B. Experience is needed for rock climbing.
C. One should watch the volcano eruption right now.
D. All the adventures take place in different countries.
23. Which part of a newspaper does the passage belong to
A. Culture. B. Environment. C. Science. D. Travel.
【答案】21. A 22. C 23. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍并向读者们推荐了四个旅游路线。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据Travel with chimpanzees(黑猩猩), Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda部分中“Be like Jane Goodall and go on a journey with endangered chimpanzees in Uganda’s jungle. (像珍·古道尔一样,在乌干达的丛林里与濒临灭绝的黑猩猩一起旅行。)”以及本段中“You will be putting your tourism dollars toward helping protect the animals through a series of protection projects with Jane Goodall Institute.(你将把你的旅游收入用于帮助保护动物,通过简·古道尔研究所的一系列保护项目。)”可知,在该公园中旅行既可以帮助保护动物也可以在乌干达的丛林里旅行。故选A。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Hike to the Iceland’s erupting volcano(活火山), Iceland部分中“Book this trip fast to catch the eruption because no one knows how long it will continue, or try ice climbing Skaftafell, the highest mountain in Iceland-no experience necessary.(赶紧预订这趟旅行,赶上火山喷发,因为没人知道它会持续多久,或者试试爬冰岛最高峰斯卡夫塔瀑布——不需要任何经验。)”可知,在本次旅行中不确定火山喷发会持续多久,因此现在应该观察火山喷发。故选C。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,文章主要介绍的是四个旅游路线,因此推断文章出自于报纸的旅游部分。故选D。
B
The World’s oldest pen pals have both turned 100 after 84 years of transatlantic(跨大洋) letters.
Geoff Banks from Honiton, Devon, UK and Celesta Byrne, from the US, started writing to each other aged just 16 in 1938. They met as part of an educational project to put British and American students in contact-and 84 years later they are still contacting.
Geoff, a retired engineer, said, “I can’t quite remember how we got in touch, but I was talking to Celesta recently and I think it was something to do with an American school’s plan, which matched us up with Americans for a pen pal relationship, and somehow I ended up with this letter from an American girl, and we just kept contacting ever since. There were a couple of years when we tried very hard to keep in touch because of the war. Now of course she is poorly sighted, so I contact mainly by email to one of her daughters who lives nearby. Email is much easier for me these days too because I can’t write very well anymore. We just talk about daily lives and our families. She’s always been there to write to, even if it was just birthday cards and Christmas cards.”
Though having chatted for over 80 years, the pair has only ever met twice-first in 2002 while Geoff visited New York, and then two years later. Geoff is now a great grandfather, having three sons settling across the world and many more grandchildren. “I have this new thing called Zoom I think now to chat with her, but I leave all the technology to younger people. They’re much better at pressing all the buttons.”
24. What may bring Geoff and Celesta to be pen pals
A. The world war. B. Geoff’s visit to New York.
C. An American school’s plan. D. Communication technology.
25. Why did Geoff use email to write letters later
A. He relied on Zoom to chat. B. He was unable to write well.
C. He suffered from eye disease. D. He wrote to Celesta’s daughter.
26. What can we infer from the passage
A. Pen pals are true friends.
B. Technology builds friendship.
C. Letters were not allowed during the war.
D. True friendship survives time and space.
27. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Oldest Pen Pals in the World. B. A Great Way to Keep in Touch.
C. Importance of Being Pen Pals. D. Zoom: A New Technology to Chat.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。本文主要讲述了世界上年龄最大的两位笔友的故事。八十多年前,美国的一个教育项目使英国的杰夫与美国的塞拉斯塔建立了笔友关系。八十多年来,他们一直通过书信、电子邮件或视频软件保持着联系。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They met as part of an educational project to put British and American students in contact(他们的会面是一个教育项目的一部分,目的是让英国和美国学生接触)” 可知,一个教育项目让英国和美国的学生搭配成笔友进行联络以及文章第三段中“Geoff, a retired engineer, said, “I can’t quite remember how we got in touch, but I was talking to Celesta recently and I think it was something to do with an American school’s plan, which matched us up with Americans for a pen pal relationship( 杰夫是一名退休工程师,他说:我不太记得我们是怎么联系上的,但我最近和塞莱斯塔聊了聊,我想这和一所美国学校的计划有关,该计划让我们和美国人成为笔友。)”也说明了他们成为笔友的原因是一所美国学校的计划。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Now of course she is poorly sighted, so I contact mainly by email to one of her daughters who lives nearby. Email is much easier for me these days too because I can’t write very well anymore.(当然,她视力不佳,所以我主要通过电子邮件与住在她附近的一个女儿联系。这些天来,电子邮件对我来说也容易多了,因为我不能写得很好了。)”可知,杰夫后来用电子邮件写信,因为他写不好字。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“There were a couple of years when we tried very hard to keep in touch because of the war. Now of course she is poorly sighted, so I contact mainly by email to one of her daughters who lives nearby. Email is much easier for me these days too because I can’t write very well anymore.(有几年,因为战争,我们非常努力地保持联系。当然,她视力不佳,所以我主要通过电子邮件与住在她附近的一个女儿联系。这些天来,电子邮件对我来说也容易多了,因为我不能写得很好了。)”可知,杰夫与塞拉斯塔跨越 80 多年的笔友情谊,纵然有战争,纵然有健康原因,他们之间依然保持着联系。由此推断,真正的友谊超越时空。故选D。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“The World’s oldest pen pals have both turned 100 after 84 years of transatlantic(跨大洋) letters. (世界上最老的笔友在经历了84年的跨大西洋书信往来后,双双迎来了100岁生日)”以及全文可知,本文主要讲述了世界上年龄最大的两位笔友的故事。故选A。
C
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Elizabeth Hulanick turned to toys from her childhood to deal with worries and stress.
She started bringing Lego toys to work to build things out of the colorful blocks with her co-workers. She also started playing with Silly Putty, a toy made of special rubbery material that could change colors. Playing with a Silly Putty, she said, brought her comfort. “I always need something to be tinkering with, and that’s probably the best way for me to stick with a toy instead of trying to figure out how to fix cars or something like that,” said Hulanick, who is 37 years old and lives in New Jersey.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, many adults turned to toys to remember feelings from their childhood. The stress from the worldwide health crisis only grew that trend (趋势). Many toymakers see adults’ interest in toys as a long-lasting thing, even after the pandemic fully ends. This so-called “kid-adult” market is a big part of the toy industry. The market is the second fastest growing group after customers aged 12 to 17. Even the fast-food restaurant McDonald’s is marketing to toy-loving adults. In October, it publicized its adult Happy Meals, attracting a great number of toy lovers. McDonald’s sales officials said the company sold half its supply of valuable toys in the first four days of the special deal.
The Lego Group has been increasing its products for adults since 2020. It now has 100 toys designed for older customers. Among the most popular toys for adults are Star Wars and Harry Potter-linked Lego sets. Genevieve Cruz, senior director at Lego said, “The pandemic certainly served as a cause for this trend as adults found themselves sitting at home with nothing else to do with a lot of time on their hands.” Cruz added, “We do believe that the trend goes beyond the pandemic.”
28. Why did Elizabeth Hulanic play with Silly Putty
A. It could change colors. B. It made her feel relaxed.
C. It brought her good ideas. D. It helped her remember her childhood.
29. The underlined phrase in paragraph 2 can be replaced by ________.
A. fix B. make C. play D. protect
30. What do we know about Happy Meals
A. It showed McDonald’s new toys. B. It increased McDonald’s toy sales.
C. It was a big part of the toy industry. D. It made adults fall in love with toys.
31. What can we learn from Genevieve Cruz
A. Lego sets are adults’ favorite toys.
B. Adults spent a lot of time with toys at home.
C. COVID-19 helped the growth of the toy market.
D. The toy market will stop growing after the pandemic.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了疫情期间,许多大人开始通过玩玩具来应对担忧和压力,新冠疫情促进了玩具市场的增长。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Playing with a Silly Putty, she said, brought her comfort.(她说,玩橡皮泥给她带来了安慰)”可知,Elizabeth Hulanic玩橡皮泥是因为使她感到放松。故选B。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“that’s probably the best way for me to stick with a toy instead of trying to figure out how to fix cars or something like that”可知,Hulanic喜欢玩玩具,认为这是坚持玩玩具的最好方式,而不是试图弄清楚如何修理汽车或类似的东西,故划线词意思是“玩耍”。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“In October, it publicized its adult Happy Meals, attracting a great number of toy lovers. McDonald’s sales officials said the company sold half its supply of valuable toys in the first four days of the special deal.(10月,该公司推出了成人开心乐园餐,吸引了大批玩具爱好者。麦当劳的销售官员说,该公司在特价活动的头四天就售出了一半的贵重玩具)”可知,开心乐园餐增加了麦当劳的玩具销量。故选B。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The Lego Group has been increasing its products for adults since 2020. It now has 100 toys designed for older customers. Among the most popular toys for adults are Star Wars and Harry Potter-linked Lego sets. Genevieve Cruz, senior director at Lego said, “The pandemic certainly served as a cause for this trend as adults found themselves sitting at home with nothing else to do with a lot of time on their hands.”(自2020年以来,乐高集团一直在增加面向成人的产品。它现在有100个专为老年顾客设计的玩具。最受成年人欢迎的玩具是与《星球大战》和《哈利波特》相关的乐高玩具。乐高高级总监吉纳维芙·克鲁兹说:“疫情肯定是造成这一趋势的原因之一,因为成年人发现自己坐在家里无所事事,手上有很多时间。”)”可知,新冠疫情促进了玩具市场的增长。故选C。
D
The other day my new friend waved at me and went over to me. He said: “Have we met before ” It happened a lot-he finds it hard to remember new people’s faces. “Anyone I’ve spoken to once or twice I do forget quite soon,” he says. “If I meet someone new, I’ll make a point of following them on Facebook so their faces become impressive in my memory somehow.” Face blindness, or prosopagnosia, is a confusing condition that can make us believe we recognize people we’ve never met or fail to recognize those we have.
For some people with face blindness, it may be the poor ability to see. “Because they’re seeing faces a little bit differently to everybody else, it doesn’t allow them to pick up on the visual message that most of us use to recognize different people.” says John Towler, lecturer in psychology at Swansea University. They can have problems with the whole face at first sight, and will focus on a particular detail to remember people by-the eyebrows, the mouth for example.
For other people with the condition, it may be more of a memory problem. “Clearly, if the ability to see is poor, then memory is going to be poor and the two things often affect each other,” says Towler. “But for some people, it’s mainly one or the other.”
The result is that both types of people are unable to recognize familiar faces. Neither type would know which face was being shown to them-the first type because they can’t see it perfectly enough, and the second type because they can’t remember it.
It’s less clear what causes face blindness in people. Studies have suggested that there are unusual structural and functional signs in the brain’s wiring, according to Towler, but there is no agreement on the exact cause. For this reason, the line between having developmental(发育性)prosopagnosia and being simply “bad” with faces can be unclear. One of the things about any kind of ability is that humans are not all the same.
32. Why does the writer mention his new friend
A. To introduce the topic. B. To share a story.
C. To give an opinion. D. To make a comparison.
33. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part in paragraph 2
A. lift. B. forget. C. notice. D. watch.
34. According to John Towler, people with prosopagnosia ________.
A. can’t remember anything
B. have something unusual in their brains
C. can recognize people by the mouth only
D. are both poor at memory and the ability to see
35. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Humans share no similarities in ability.
B. The cause of face blindness is unknown at all.
C. Scientists are still working to find the unusual signs.
D. It’s hard to tell prosopagnosia from being “bad” with faces.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了脸盲症。
32题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The other day my new friend waved at me and went over to me. He said: “Have we met before ” It happened a lot-he finds it hard to remember new people’s faces. “Anyone I’ve spoken to once or twice I do forget quite soon,” he says.(前几天,我的新朋友向我挥了挥手,走到我身边。他说:“我们以前见过面吗 ”这种事经常发生——他发现很难记住陌生人的脸。他说:“和我说过一两次话的人,我很快就会忘记。”)”和“Face blindness, or prosopagnosia, is a confusing condition that can make us believe we recognize people we’ve never met or fail to recognize those we have.(脸盲症或面孔失认症是一种令人困惑的疾病,它会让我们相信我们能认出从未见过的人,或者认不出我们见过的人。)”可知,作者提到他的新朋友是为了导入脸盲症这个话题。故选A。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“For some people with face blindness, it may be the poor ability to see.(对于一些患有脸盲症的人来说,可能是视力差。)”和下文“They can have problems with the whole face at first sight, and will focus on a particular detail to remember people by-the eyebrows, the mouth for example.(他们在第一眼看到整张脸时会有问题,他们会把注意力集中在一个特定的细节上,比如眉毛、嘴巴。)”可知,他们看到的面孔和其他人有点不同,这让他们无法注意到我们大多数人用来识别不同人的视觉信息。由此可知,pick up on意为“注意到”,和notice意思接近。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“It’s less clear what causes face blindness in people. Studies have suggested that there are unusual structural and functional signs in the brain’s wiring, according to Towler, but there is no agreement on the exact cause.(目前尚不清楚是什么原因导致了人们的脸盲症。根据托勒的说法,研究表明,在大脑的线路中存在不寻常的结构和功能迹象,但对确切原因没有一致意见。)”可推知,根据约翰·托勒的说法,面容失认症患者的大脑中有一些不寻常的东西。故选B。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“ For this reason, the line between having developmental(发育性)prosopagnosia and being simply “bad” with faces can be unclear.(由于这个原因,发育性面容失认症和仅仅是“不熟悉”面孔之间的界限可能不清楚。)”可知,很难区分脸盲症和“不熟悉”面孔。故选D。

Beyond Burnout(精力耗尽)

【答案】Adam was attracted to football as/because/since sport makes a great difference to health.

79. 当没有成功加入校足球队时,他有点失望。(fail, make) (汉译英)
【答案】He felt a bit disappointed when he failed to make the school football team
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词、动词、时态和时间状语从句。“他有点失望”是主句,主语“他”用he,“有点失望”用feel a bit disappointed表示,其中feel是系动词,描述过去的状态,用一般过去时态felt,形容词作disappointed表语;“当没有成功加入校足球队时”是时间状语从句,用从属连词when引导该从句,根据句意,补充主语he,谓语“没有成功”用fail to do...表示,讲述过去的事情,谓语动词fail用过去式failed,宾语“加入校足球队”用不定式to make the school football team。综上,全句译为:He felt a bit disappointed when he failed to make the school football team.
80. 亚当正计划申请更适合自己的校辩论社团。(apply, 进行时表将来)(汉译英)
【答案】Adam is applying for the school debate club, which is more suitable for him./and it is more suitable for him.

Experience space with zero gravity flights
The dream of experiencing the weightlessness of space with a zero-G flight has come true in states such as New York, California, Florida and more this year. Specially trained pilots perform aerobatic maneuvers(特技飞行) to keep you floating in space, a feeling no longer only for astronauts.
Climb North America’s new via ferrata Rocky Mountains, Colorado
If a trip with a challenge is what you’re looking for, then consider North America’s newest and highest “via ferrata”. Via ferrata is a method of rock climbing with ladders, fixed steps and cables allowing non-mountaineers a leg up. No rock climbing experience is necessary to climb 12,900 feet to the top on this protected climbing course with a guide.
Travel with chimpanzees(黑猩猩), Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda
Many of us started to rethink our relationship to nature. Be like Jane Goodall and go on a journey with endangered chimpanzees in Uganda’s jungle. You will be putting your tourism dollars toward helping protect the animals through a series of protection projects with Jane Goodall Institute.
Hike to the Iceland’s erupting volcano(活火山), Iceland
In this once-in-life-time trip, you can hike or take a helicopter ride over the Fagradalsfjall volcano eruption in Geldinggadalur, which has been going on since March.

The World’s oldest pen pals have both turned 100 after 84 years of transatlantic(跨大洋) letters.
Geoff Banks from Honiton, Devon, UK and Celesta Byrne, from the US, started writing to each other aged just 16 in 1938. They met as part of an educational project to put British and American students in contact-and 84 years later they are still contacting.
Geoff, a retired engineer, said, “I can’t quite remember how we got in touch, but I was talking to Celesta recently and I think it was something to do with an American school’s plan, which matched us up with Americans for a pen pal relationship, and somehow I ended up with this letter from an American girl, and we just kept contacting ever since. There were a couple of years when we tried very hard to keep in touch because of the war. Now of course she is poorly sighted, so I contact mainly by email to one of her daughters who lives nearby. Email is much easier for me these days too because I can’t write very well anymore. We just talk about daily lives and our families. She’s always been there to write to, even if it was just birthday cards and Christmas cards.”
Though having chatted for over 80 years, the pair has only ever met twice-first in 2002 while Geoff visited New York, and then two years later. Geoff is now a great grandfather, having three sons settling across the world and many more grandchildren. “I have this new thing called Zoom I think now to chat with her, but I leave all the technology to younger people. They’re much better at pressing all the buttons.”
24. What may bring Geoff and Celesta to be pen pals
A. The world war. B. Geoff’s visit to New York.
C. An American school’s plan. D. Communication technology.
25. Why did Geoff use email to write letters later
A. He relied on Zoom to chat. B. He was unable to write well.
C. He suffered from eye disease. D. He wrote to Celesta’s daughter.
26. What can we infer from the passage
A. Pen pals are true friends.
B. Technology builds friendship.
C. Letters were not allowed during the war.
D. True friendship survives time and space.
27. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Oldest Pen Pals in the World. B. A Great Way to Keep in Touch.
C. Importance of Being Pen Pals. D. Zoom: A New Technology to Chat.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Elizabeth Hulanick turned to toys from her childhood to deal with worries and stress.
She started bringing Lego toys to work to build things out of the colorful blocks with her co-workers. She also started playing with Silly Putty, a toy made of special rubbery material that could change colors. Playing with a Silly Putty, she said, brought her comfort. “I always need something to be tinkering with, and that’s probably the best way for me to stick with a toy instead of trying to figure out how to fix cars or something like that,” said Hulanick, who is 37 years old and lives in New Jersey.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, many adults turned to toys to remember feelings from their childhood. The stress from the worldwide health crisis only grew that trend (趋势). Many toymakers see adults’ interest in toys as a long-lasting thing, even after the pandemic fully ends. This so-called “kid-adult” market is a big part of the toy industry. The market is the second fastest growing group after customers aged 12 to 17. Even the fast-food restaurant McDonald’s is marketing to toy-loving adults. In October, it publicized its adult Happy Meals, attracting a great number of toy lovers. McDonald’s sales officials said the company sold half its supply of valuable toys in the first four days of the special deal.
The Lego Group has been increasing its products for adults since 2020. It now has 100 toys designed for older customers. Among the most popular toys for adults are Star Wars and Harry Potter-linked Lego sets. Genevieve Cruz, senior director at Lego said, “The pandemic certainly served as a cause for this trend as adults found themselves sitting at home with nothing else to do with a lot of time on their hands.” Cruz added, “We do believe that the trend goes beyond the pandemic.”
28. Why did Elizabeth Hulanic play with Silly Putty
A. It could change colors. B. It made her feel relaxed.
C. It brought her good ideas. D. It helped her remember her childhood.
29. The underlined phrase in paragraph 2 can be replaced by ________.
A. fix B. make C. play D. protect
30. What do we know about Happy Meals
A. It showed McDonald’s new toys. B. It increased McDonald’s toy sales.
C. It was a big part of the toy industry. D. It made adults fall in love with toys.
31. What can we learn from Genevieve Cruz
A. Lego sets are adults’ favorite toys.
B. Adults spent a lot of time with toys at home.
C. COVID-19 helped the growth of the toy market.
D. The toy market will stop growing after the pandemic.
D
The other day my new friend waved at me and went over to me. He said: “Have we met before ” It happened a lot-he finds it hard to remember new people’s faces. “Anyone I’ve spoken to once or twice I do forget quite soon,” he says. “If I meet someone new, I’ll make a point of following them on Facebook so their faces become impressive in my memory somehow.” Face blindness, or prosopagnosia, is a confusing condition that can make us believe we recognize people we’ve never met or fail to recognize those we have.
For some people with face blindness, it may be the poor ability to see. “Because they’re seeing faces a little bit differently to everybody else, it doesn’t allow them to pick up on the visual message that most of us use to recognize different people.” says John Towler, lecturer in psychology at Swansea University. They can have problems with the whole face at first sight, and will focus on a particular detail to remember people by-the eyebrows, the mouth for example.
For other people with the condition, it may be more of a memory problem. “Clearly, if the ability to see is poor, then memory is going to be poor and the two things often affect each other,” says Towler. “But for some people, it’s mainly one or the other.”
The result is that both types of people are unable to recognize familiar faces. Neither type would know which face was being shown to them-the first type because they can’t see it perfectly enough, and the second type because they can’t remember it.
It’s less clear what causes face blindness in people. Studies have suggested that there are unusual structural and functional signs in the brain’s wiring, according to Towler, but there is no agreement on the exact cause. For this reason, the line between having developmental(发育性)prosopagnosia and being simply “bad” with faces can be unclear. One of the things about any kind of ability is that humans are not all the same.
32. Why does the writer mention his new friend
A. To introduce the topic. B. To share a story.
C. To give an opinion. D. To make a comparison.
33. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part in paragraph 2
A. lift. B. forget. C. notice. D. watch.
34. According to John Towler, people with prosopagnosia ________.
A. can’t remember anything
B. have something unusual in their brains
C. can recognize people by the mouth only
D. are both poor at memory and the ability to see
35. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Humans share no similarities in ability.
B. The cause of face blindness is unknown at all.
C. Scientists are still working to find the unusual signs.
D. It’s hard to tell prosopagnosia from being “bad” with faces.
