Part Two Reading Comprehension
Directions:
In this part there are four passages followed by questions or
unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers. Choo the
one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answer on the ANSWER
SHEET by drawing with a pencil a short bar across the corresponding
letter in the brackets.
Questions 11—15 are bad on the following passage:
Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are
not performed in the brain alone, but that one's 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 surprid to be told that you usually listen to
music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people
can listen to music that is more or less familiar without mo赶火车
ving
their body or more specifically, some part of their body. Often when
one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, he is tempted to
direct the orchestra even though he knows there is a competent
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"
himlf into the music with more or less noticeable motions of his
body.
The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process
of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious
becau it is less noticeable.
11. Some psychologists maintain that thinking is __________.
A. not a mental process
B. more of a physical process than a mental action
C. a process that involves our entire bodies
D. 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 one's muscles also
participate。原文中的not…alone, but…相当于考题里的as well as, 所以
