Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing with a pencil a short bar across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Questions 1115 are based on the following passage:Some psychologists maintain that mental acts
10、 such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that ones muscles also participate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your e
11、ars but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their body or more specifically, some part of their body.

12、ent conductor on the job.Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener “feels” himself into the music with more or less noticeable motions of his body.The
13、muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less noticeable.11. Some psychologists maintain that thinking is _.A. not a mental processB. more of a physical process than a mental actionC. a process th
14、at involves our entire bodiesD. a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain答案D。本题考点在文章第一句中的mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that ones muscles also participate。原文中的notalone, but相当于考题里的as well as, 所以考生对意思相似相近的表达要清楚。12.

15、 familiar music without _.A. moving some part of their bodyB. stopping what they are doing to listenC. directing the orchestra playing itD. wishing that they could conduct music properly答案A。本题的依据句是第二段中的第二个句子Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their body or mor
16、e specifically, some part of their body.13. Body movements are necessary in order for the listener to _.A. hear the music B. appreciate the musicC. enjoy the music fully D. completely understand the music答案C。本题依据关键在第三段第二句中的derive all possible enjoyment from music,这与试题中的enjoy the music fully意思相当。14.
17、According to the selection, muscle participation in the process of thinking is _.A. deliberate B. obviousC. not readily apparent D. very pronounced答案C。本题的依据是短文中的最后一句,关键部分是this participation is less obvious,这与选项C、 not readily apparent意思相当。15. The best title for this selection is _.A. An Ear for Music
18、B. Music AppreciationC. How Muscles Participate in Mental ActsD. A Psychological Definition of the Thinking Process答案C。短文先指出思维中可能有类似听音乐时肌肉参与的情形;接着描述了听音乐过程中肌肉参与的情况;最后指出,肌肉在思维活动中的参与只不过没那么明显罢了。可见,全文主要讨论的是肌肉在思维活动中的参与,既不是专门讲思维,更不是专门说音乐。故C选项做标题合适。Questions 1620 are based on the following passage:During th
