24、者來參加營地活動(dòng)，由此可知，這篇文章的主要目的是吸引人們到營地。故選B項(xiàng)。5. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段關(guān)鍵句“Unlike other camp programs that include horses as a small part of their program, at Shadow Ridge horses are the program! We are 100% horse from stable (馬廄) management, nature walks, and track rides to bedroom furnishings.”（不像其他營地項(xiàng)目，馬匹只是他們項(xiàng)目的一小部分

25、，在Shadow Ridge，馬匹是項(xiàng)目的核心！從馬廄管理、自然漫步、小道騎行到臥室家具，我們都是100%的馬。）可知，在Shadow Ridge，馬匹是項(xiàng)目的核心，貫穿了活動(dòng)的各個(gè)方面，例如馬廄管理和騎馬自然漫步等，馬在這些活動(dòng)中起著中心作用，由此可知，在Shadow Ridge營地項(xiàng)目中，馬在活動(dòng)中起著中心作用。故選A項(xiàng)。6. 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容“Horses help us achieve many of our aims.

27、 Ridge項(xiàng)目主要是幫助人們達(dá)到教育目的。故選C項(xiàng)。Would it surprise you to learn that the vast majority of adults around 75 percent tell up to two lies every day?

30、” someone whos lying? Back in 2015, University of Michigan researchers identified some common behaviors among liars, including frowning or grimacing (扮怪相), looking directly at the questioner in a bid to appear trustworthy, and overcompensating by gesturing with both hands. A more recent study found

31、that liars may unconsciously mimic the body language of those around them while their brains are otherwise engaged in telling lies. However, to establish a connection with a new person, that will make them feel that there is something about you that they like. Its also worth looking out for the “eye

32、 dart”: when we glance to the left, were attempting to recall facts and events; when we look to the right, were thinking more creatively.Vocal factors can offer a good clue, too.

37、解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Before you start protesting your innocence or confronting loved ones and colleagues, though, its worth noting that the bulk of these lies fall into the “hardly worth mentioning” category. Think little white lies such as attempting to spare someones feelings or gently twisting the facts to

38、 avoid looking-bad. (然而，在你開始抗議自己的清白或與親人和同事對峙之前，值得注意的是，這些謊言大多屬于“幾乎不值得一提”的范疇。想一些善意的小謊言，比如試圖不傷害別人的感情，或者溫和地歪曲事實(shí)以避免看起來不好)”可知，“我喜歡你的新發(fā)型?！?，“放松。這對我來說沒什么不同?！焙汀拔业幕疖嚤蝗∠恕?，而不是“我睡過頭了，錯(cuò)過了火車”是善意的小謊言，都屬于“不值得一提”謊言范疇，根據(jù)“An example of a big lie, according to the studys authors, would be saying “I love you” without bei

39、ng sincere. (根據(jù)研究作者的說法，一個(gè)大謊的例子是說“我愛你”時(shí)沒有真誠)”可知，不真誠地說“我愛你”，即“我太喜歡你了?！保ɡ淅涞卣f），是真正的大謊言，不屬于“不值得一提”謊言范疇。故選B項(xiàng)。8. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“A more recent study found that liars may unconsciously mimic the body language of those around them while their brains are otherwise engaged in telling lies. (最近的一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，說謊者可能會(huì)無意識地模

40、仿周圍人的肢體語言，而他們的大腦則在撒謊)”可知，撒謊者通過無意中重復(fù)著與他交談的人的手勢而暴露自己說謊。故選C項(xiàng)。9. 詞句猜測題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Back in 2015, University of Michigan researchers identified some common behaviors among liars, including frowning or grimacing (扮怪相), looking directly at the questioner in a bid to appear trustworthy, and overcompensating by

41、gesturing with both hands. A more recent study found that liars may unconsciously mimic the body language of those around them while their brains are otherwise engaged in telling lies. (早在2015年，密歇根大學(xué)的研究人員就發(fā)現(xiàn)了說謊者的一些常見行為，包括皺眉頭或做鬼臉，直接看著提問者以表現(xiàn)出可信，以及雙手做手勢來過度補(bǔ)償。最近的一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，說謊者可能會(huì)無意識地mimic周圍人的肢體語言，而他們的大腦則在撒謊

42、)”可知，說謊者說謊時(shí)往往會(huì)用雙手做過多的手勢，可得出說謊者可能會(huì)模仿周圍人的肢體語言，mimic在此處意為“模仿、映照（mirror）”。故選C項(xiàng)。10. 主旨大意題。根據(jù)上文講“說謊者是怎么通過肢體動(dòng)作以及聲音來暴露撒謊行為的”和最后一段中的“Its important to remember though that none of these pointers offer undeniable evidence that youre dealing with a liar. After all, some people just grimace (做鬼臉) more or speak s

43、lower than others. (但重要的是要記住，這些指針都不能提供不可否認(rèn)的證據(jù)，證明你在與說謊者打交道。畢竟，有些人只是比其他人做更多的鬼臉或說得慢)”可知作者認(rèn)為沒有可以用來判斷一個(gè)人是否說謊的絕對依據(jù)，D項(xiàng)“如何判斷某人是否在對你撒謊”符合文意。故選D項(xiàng)。二、七選五Do you want to be at the top of your class?
