试题分析：本文是一则图书俱乐部的会员加入说明。

1.细节信息题。根据Being a member部分中的第一句话“All we are asking you to do while you are a member is to choose four books during your first year.”可知，成为会员后，第一年要选购四本书，这些书并不是免费的，因此A选项不是成为会员的好处。根据Immediate benefits部分的内容可知，B、C、D三项都是成为会员后可以享受到的好处。

2.When you’ve joined部分中的第二句话“Your free club magazine arrives once a month，to keep you up to date with the latest best?sellers.”可知，每月给会员一本免费的会员杂志是为了告知会员最近的畅销书，因此答案为B。

3.When you’ve joined部分中的首句“As a member，you’ll enjoy savings of between 30% and 50% off the publisher’s price on every book you buy”可知，会员购书可以打七到五折，因此一本100美元的图书，会员将节省30至50美元，故B项正确。

In a recent study, participants were asked to drink beer from either a straight-sided glass, or a curved “beer glass”. People took about almost twice as long to finish when drinking alcohol from the straight-sided glass, compared with the curved glass. There was no difference in drinking rates from the glasses when the drink was nonalcoholic.

People may drink their alcohol faster from curved glasses because it is more difficult to accurately judge the halfway point of these glasses, the researchers concluded. As a result, drinkers may be less able to measure how much they have consumed. “People often talk of ‘pacing themselves’ when drinking alcohol as a means of controlling levels of drunkenness, but I think the important point to take from our research is that the ability to pace effectively may be compromised when drinking from certain types of glasses,” said study researcher Angela Attwood of the University of Bristol’s School of Experimental Psychology in the United Kingdom.

In another experiment, participants completed a computer task in which they were shown pictures of two glasses containing varying volumes of liquid, and asked to judge whether each glass was more, or less, than half-full. The researchers found people made greater errors in judging the halfway point of the curved glass.

“The participants who showed the greatest error in these judgments also tended to show the greatest changes in their drinking rates,” the researchers said. “The speed at which people drink alcohol influences their level of intoxication (迷醉), and the number of drinks they consume on an occasion. Therefore, slowing down is likely to have a positive impact for the individual, and also at a population level.”

1.If a man finishes drinking alcohol from a curved glass in 30 minutes, from a same-volumed straight glass, he will spend _____.

A. about 15 minutes B. about 60 minutes

C. about 45 minutes D. about 25 minutes

2.According to the passage, the experiment shows that _____.

A. curved glasses mislead people’s judgment

B. people differ greatly when judging the same glass

C. people do computer tasks poorly after drinking

D. the type of liquid influences people’s thinking

3.What advice do the researchers give drinkers?

A. Use a curved “beer glass”.

B. Drink at a slower pace.

C. Drink with positive people.

D. Try different types of alcohol.

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Shape may influence your drinking

B. Curved glass is out of date

C. Drink less for your health

D. Drinkers favor a different type of glass

试题分析：在最近的一项研究中，实验的被试分别用直边玻璃杯和有弧度的酒杯喝酒，前者喝一杯酒的用时比后者多一倍。这是因为，有弧度的酒杯不容易判断中间点的位置，喝起酒来无法把握每次喝的量。

1.People took about almost twice as long to finish when drinking alcohol from the straight-sided glass, compared with the curved glass.”可知，与curved glass相比，人们使用straight-sided glass喝一杯酒所用的时间是使用curved glass的两倍，故选B。

2.it is more difficult to accurately judge the halfway point of these glasses…As a result, drinkers may be less able to measure how much they have consumed.”和最后一段“who showed the greatest error in these judgments also tended to show the greatest changes in their drinking rates”可知，使用有弧度的酒杯不容易精确判断杯子一半的位置，人们无法准确判断自己喝了多少酒，错误判断杯子中间点位置的人，更容易错判他们喝酒的量，故选A。

3.slowing down is likely to have a positive impact for the individual”可知，减慢喝酒的速度对一个人很有帮助，故选B。

4.either a straight-sided glass, or a curved “beer glass””和第二段“People may drink their alcohol faster from curved glasses”及第四段“the greatest error in these judgments also tended to show the greatest changes in their drinking rates”可知，文章主要讲的是酒杯的形状影响饮酒者对酒量的判断，故选A。
