《2025年小题狂做九年级英语上册译林版巅峰版》

1. Paragraph 2 is mainly about C.
2. What can we learn about lying from the passage? B
3. The underlined word “backfire” in Paragraph 4 probably means “D”.
4. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? B

答案： 1. C 提示:段落大意题。第二段第一句承上启下,第二句说了撒谎时要做的事,第三句介绍了撒谎时大脑工作的区域——前额叶皮层,第四句介绍了前额叶皮层负责的两项工作,接下来具体介绍这两项工作如何运行的。由此可知第二段主要讲述了人们撒谎时大脑是如何工作的。
2. B 提示:细节理解题。根据第三段中“... people's mental workload will be heavier and their reaction time longer when they lie. Worse still, when the prefrontal cortex is busy with tasks related to lying, she notes, it has a harder time doing other tasks”可知,人在掩盖谎言时需要很多脑力。
3. D 提示:词义猜测题。结合画线词所在句可知,backfire 与 risky 并列,意义相似。根据下文“When you give dishonest praise, you may make your friends feel good at first. But if you do it often enough, they'll soon learn that they can't trust your praise.”可知,善意的谎言开始可能会让人感觉舒服,但是如果你经常这么做,别人很快就会不相信。由此可推断 backfire 与 D 选项“产生相反的效果”意义相同。
4. B 提示:标题归纳题。通读全文可知,选项 B“撒谎的代价”最适合作标题。
