2022年考博英语-西安交通大学考前模拟强化练习题（附答案详解）1. 单选题Mens and womens brains are not only different, but the way we use them differs too. Women have larger connections and more frequent interaction between their brains left and right hemispheres. This accounts for womens ability to have better verbal skills and intuition. Men, on the other hand, have greater brain hemisphere separation, which explains their skills for abstract reasoning and visual-spatial intelligence.Both men and women tend to follow their biological programs. Men tend to retain a firm sense of direction: they need to trace the game, catch it, and find the way home, while women have a better peripheral vision that helps them to see whats happening around the house, to spot all approaching danger, to notice changes in the childrens behavior and appearance. Mens brains are programmed to hunting, which explains their narrow range of vision, while womens brains are able to decipher a wider range of information.When entering a room, men look for exits, estimating a possible threat, and ways of escape, while women pay attention to the guests 9faces to find out who they are and how they feel. Men are able to sort out information and archive it in their head. Women tend to “rewind” the information over and over again. The only way to stop thinking of the problems is to talk it over.When a woman shares her problems with a man, she is not looking for solutions: she needs someone to listen to her.Men prefer strident noises, hard handshakes, and red color. They are better at solving technical problems. Women have a sharper ear; they use more words while talking, and are better at completing tasks independently.Based on these biologically explained differences, some psychological distinctions between men and women can be established; Men grasp a situation as a whole and think globally, while women think locally, relying on details and nuances; men are more independent in their thoughts and actions, while women are more willing to follow the ideas suggested by others. Women tend to criticize themselves, while men are more satisfied with their own performance. Mens satisfaction come from career and prosperity, while women value family and kids; men have a pronounced need to fulfill their goals, and women rank relationships with others first. Women endue pain and monotonous work better than men.All the above gets even more confusing, if we take into account that 15 to 20 % of men happen to have a female type of brains, and about 10%of women have a male type of brains, which means that some percentage of men and women no matter how small it seems, are partially programmed to the behavior and way of thinking of the opposite gender.“Okay, I understand the problem” you are saying to yourself, but “whats the solution”？ That depends on whether you are a woman or a man.1.This passage mainly describes the differences between men and women in（ ） .2.When a woman narrates her problems to a man, she wants（ ）.3.Which of the following may reflect the Chinese saying “女人心, 海底针”？4.We can infer from the passage that（ ）.5.When a man has a sharper natural ability of intuition than other men, we would say that he（ ）.6.When we say “women think locally” it means that（ ）.问题1选项A.physiologyB.sociologyC.psychologyD.all of the above问题2选项A.a helperB.a listenerC.all analyzerD.problem-solver问题3选项A.Womens brains are able to decipher a wider range of information.B.Women have larger connections and more frequent interaction between their brains left and right hemispheres.C.women are better at completing tasks independently.D.woman attach greater importance to relationships.问题4选项A.men are more dependent emotionallyB.women are less dependent emotionallyC.men are less dependent in making decisionsD.women are less confident than men问题5选项A.is a woman as a matter of factB.is born to be a womanC.has a female type of brainsD.has a male type of brains问题6选项A.women are attracted more by local affairsB.women notice only the local affairsC.women pay more attention to detailsD.women dont care about the international affairs【答案】第1题:D第2题:B第3题:A第4题:C第5题:C第6题:C【解析】1.结合全文内容可知, 第一二段主要是生理学的角度讲述讲述男女差异, 第三四五段是社会学的角度, 第六段是心理学的角度, 所以选项D正确。2.根据第四段“When a woman shares her problems with a man, she is not looking for solutions: she needs someone to listen to her.”可知, 当女人在倾诉的时候, 她需要的不是解决方案, 而是一个倾听者, 所以选项B正确。3.“女人心, 海底针”指女人想得比较多, 心思难以琢磨。选项A“女性的大脑能够解读更广泛的信息”说明女性心思细腻, 想法多。所以选项A符合题意。其他选项都不是讲女性心思细腻, 想法多, 所以排除。4.根据原文可知, 选项A和B在文中没有提及, 根据第六段“men are more independent in their thoughts and actions, while women are more willing to follow the ideas suggested by others.”男人在思想和行动上更独立, 而女人更愿意听从别人的建议。说明男性在做决定时更独立, 选项C正确；第六段提及女人喜欢批评自己, 而男人对自己的表现更满意, 并不能说明女人不如男人自信, 所以排除。5.根据倒数第二段的内容可知, 15-20%的男性有着女性思维
