参考答案：

【语篇解读】本文讲述了为什么有时我们感觉一节课时间过得很快，有时过

得很慢，这主要是因为人的大脑对于一个任务的专注程度不同。

当大脑专注于一个任务的多个方面时，它的精力就会被分散，因而就转移了对时间的注意。

1．A.guessB．learn

C．believeD．doubt

答案　C　[考查语境与动词的辨析。

课间十分钟玩得很开心，时间在不知不觉中就过去了。

此处用can'tbelieve表示对这段时间飞快流逝的惊讶与感叹。

]

2．A.viewB．point

C．sceneD．experience

答案　C　[考查语境与名词的辨析。

上文提到的是一种特定的心理场面，而不是人所经历的某一件具体的事情，故此处表示如果你对这个场景熟悉的话。

scene意为“情景，场面”。

]

3．A.dragsB．stops

C．backsD．gains

答案　A　[考查上下文的语境。

根据文中倒数第二段的解释可得知答案。

也可从此处与前面相同的结构推出答案。

drag“过得很慢，拖沓地进行”。

]

4．A.thoughtoverB．madeup

C．cameoutD．comeupwith

答案　D　[考查动词短语的辨析。

thinkover意为“仔细考虑”；makeup意为“组成”；comeout意为“出现，露出”；comeupwith意为“找到，提出”。

科学家是以实验为基础进行研究而给出的一种解释。

]

5．A.changeB．develop

C．growD．slow

答案　A　[考查上下文的语境。

联系下文的实验可知，当人的大脑集中于一个任务的多个方面时，就变得比较活跃，反之，则变得不那么活跃。

所以当大脑所注意的任务不同时，大脑的活动状态是不一样的。

故A项符合题意。

]

6．A.sleepyB．bored

C．excitedD．active

答案　B　[考查上下文的语境。

联系上下文可知，人在比较厌烦或感到无事可做的时候，才感觉时间过得很慢。

]

7．A.reportB．think

C．decideD．see

答案　B　[考查生活常识。

时间过得很慢只是人的主观感受。

]

8．A.producedB．carried

C．triedD．performed

答案　D　[考查语境与动词搭配。

空白处所缺的词作定语，应与前面的experiment构成动宾关系，结合下文进行的实验可知，只有D项符合。

B项若为carriedout也是正确答案。

]

9．A.soB．when

C．whileD．but

答案　C　[考查语境与逻辑关系，此处用while强调在实验过程中，被实验者与研究人员的任务对比关系。

]

10．A.partlyB．quickly

C．slowlyD．first

答案　D　[考查上下文的语境。

根据后面的“then...third”可得知答案。

]

11．A.rememberB．focuson

C．forgetD．tellapart

答案　B　[考查上下文的语境。

根据下文第29空后的解释可知，实验的目的是让大脑不停地专注于一个任务的多个方面。

]

12．A.researchersB．experiment

C．clockD．brain

答案　D　[考查语境。

此处指被研究人员的大脑思维比较活跃。

]

13．A.muchB．many

C．lessD．more

答案　D　[考查上下文的语境。

结合上文的实验可知，研究人员是让实验者的大脑专注于一个任务的多个方面。

由上文中的“brainwasmoreactive”中的more可知，答案为D。

]

14．A.busyB．likely

C．readyD．sure

答案　A　[考查语境与固定短语搭配。

bebusydoing...意为“忙于……”，为固定搭配；belikelytodo...意为“可能做……”；bereadytodo...意为“准备做……”；besureof/about意为“对……确信”。

答案为A。

]

15．A.focusB．gather

C．reachD．spread

答案　D　[考查
