题文
阅读理解。 For centuries, the body's blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no humanemotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer. For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone's life as nothing.
Cold can affect other parts of the body. The expression"get cold feet" has nothing to do with cold or your
feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be
president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the
organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you
understand the situation.
The expression "give someone the cold shoulder" probably comes from the physical act of turning your
back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who
has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.
A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love
or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be
cold-hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy (同情心).Several popular songs in
recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of
their lovers.
Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody
but him got a pay raise---he was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be. 1. There are _____ expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.A. 3

日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
