At six oclock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette (香煙) smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? Had someone got in? She checked the back door

28、and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry (進(jìn)入). Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door  “a master key” perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone wat

29、ching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, but she didnt go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait silently. It was just after four oclock when the

30、front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle (壺) of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire (金屬絲) appeared through the letter-box, and

31、 then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob (把手) on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand.

35、tion because its challenging, or we think its unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say its an invaluable social practice that results in big advantages.Small talk is the grease (潤滑劑) for social communication, says Be

36、rnardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. “Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,” he explains. “The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.”In a

37、2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to look for an interaction (互動(dòng)) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their waiter reported higher positi

38、ve (積極的) feelings and a better coffee shop experience. “Its not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband.” says Dunn. “But interactions with peripheral (邊緣的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.”Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers fe

41、 title for the text?A. Conversation Counts B. Advantages of Small TalkC. Uncomfortable Silence D. Ways of Making Small TalkDAs is often the case, parents are very shocked to discover their children have lied to them for the first time. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice

42、many of the lies their children tell them.Psychologists have discovered that most parents are over-confident in their childrens honesty and this may impair their ability to discover a lie.The findings may help to explain why some parents seem to be willing to let their children get away wi

43、th almost anything even in the face of the evidence (跡象). They say parents suffer from a “truth bias (偏見)” with their own teenagers, but when faced with lies from other peoples children, they have less difficulty telling if a statement is true or not.Dr Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock Universi

44、ty in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children may lead to parents failing to discover their childrens lies. Parents truth bias may result in parents being less doubtable of their children, allowing them to successfully cheat (欺騙) them.”Most children are thoug

45、ht to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at around the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive (認(rèn)知的) and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In thei

46、r study, Dr Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they performed a test after being asked not to look at the answers. They were then asked afterwards if they had looked, with 50 truthfully denying (否認(rèn)) looking, 49 lying about looking and 9 admitting (承認(rèn)) to looking.Vi

47、deos of those denying looking were then shown to 152 parents of children aged 8 to 16, 80 of whom had children who had taken part in the test. The researchers found that the parents were less able to discover lies told by their own children than by other peoples children.54. What does the underlined

What makes parents fail to see their childrens lies.D. What affects childrens relations with their parents.57. Wh

50、at can be inferred from Dr Evanss study in the last two paragraphs?A. Parents prefer to protect their own children.B. Lying is a part of childrens development.C. Children aged 8 to 16 are very likely to tell lies.D. Parents can easily discover lies told by children of others.第II卷 （主觀題 共40分）五、詞匯運(yùn)用（本大
