That applies to everything from their physical health

14、 and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (认知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents-and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it. Research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that

24、tegrity than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones; their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.All unattractive women executives were thought to hav

25、e more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.Why are attractive women not though

63、学年度第一学期高三级英语科期中考试题答案34. D 推断题。结合全篇可以看出，人们对魅力的态度是因领域和性别不同而保持固有观点，都不全面即one-sided。35. B 主旨题。文章着重论述了个人魅力在某些领域对于女人而言是不利因素，所以不难知道作者写这篇文章的目的是为了discuss the disadvantages of being attractive。C篇解析：本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过故事改变了自己对富裕的理解。36. 主旨大意题。小男孩的问话 “Lady, are you rich?” 和小女孩的话 “Your cups match your saucers”引起了作者对富裕的深

64、刻思考，改变了她原先对于富裕的片面认识，因此用 “Lady, are you rich?” 作为标题最为合适，最能体现文章的主题 对富裕的再思考和正确认识。37. 细节理解题。由第三段的 “I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals, wet with heavy snow.” 可以推断，作者这样做是出于对他们的怜悯和同情。38. 细节理解题。 小女孩认为作者富裕，因为作者的茶杯喝茶托很相配，这不是她有意地奉承作者，而是小女孩对

65、富裕的观点：只要物与物之间、人与人之间相互协调，和谐相处，即使很简陋、很平淡，也是很富裕的、幸福的。故A项表述错误，它背离了文意。39. 细节理解题。由最后一段中的 “Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.” 可知正确答案为B项。40. 推理判断题。 本文通过这两个孩子的故事告诉我们每个人的富裕观和幸福观各不相同，真正的富裕不是你拥有多少好东西，不是你有多高的地位，而是你对生活的态度。III写作 (共两节，满分40分)第一节 基础写作 (共1小题，满分15分
