A few miles down the road,the lady saw a small caf6.She went in.The waitress came over with asweet smile.one that even being on her feet for thewhole day couldn’t erase.She noticed thewaitress was nearly eight months pregnant(懷孕),but she never let her aches be noticed.The oldlady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger.Then,she remembered Bryan. After her meal,the lady paid with a one hundred dollar bill.The waitress quickly went to get change.butwhen she came back,she noticed something written on thenapkin(餐巾紙)with the words saying:“You don’t owe me anything.Somebody oncehelped me out,the way I'm helping you.If you really want to pay me back,here iswhat you d0:Do not let this chain of love end with you.”Under the napkin were four more$100 bills. That night when the waitress got home,she was thinking aboutwhat the lady had written.How could the lady have knownhow much she and her husband needed the money with the baby due next month?

Though different cultures seem to havedifferent ways of greeting.smiling is taken as the universal gesture of friendliness.Smiling indicates happiness or agreement(同意)andit can also be used to mean “Excuse me ”or “Please”.Sowhen you are not sure what to do,just smile.

答案和解析
第一節(jié) 單項填空
從A、B、C和D四個選項中,選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項,并在答題卡l上將該項涂黑
(1) :B句意:——不會吧!我把我的包放在這,但是現(xiàn)在不見了。——天哪。要我報警嗎?本題考查的是情景英語。由第一句可知出現(xiàn)了意料之外的事情,第二旬自然表達驚訝之情。“Excuse me”意思是“抱歉;勞駕”。“Oh,dear”的意思是“哦,我的天哪”。“No problem”和“OK”的意思均是“沒問題”。故B正確。
(2) :C句意:為什么你不早點出發(fā)?這樣就不用趕了!本題考查的是副詞連接詞意義的辨析。“notuntil”的意思是“直到…才”。“since then”的意思是“自從…”,“so that”的意思是“為了;以便”。“asif”的意義是“好像…”。故C正確。
【知識拓展】so that和so…that的區(qū)別。兩個短語形似但意義卻迥異。so that…引導目的狀語從句,意為“為了;以便”,如I read more books so that I can catch up with my classmates.我讀更多的書,以便我能趕上我的同學。而so…that引導結(jié)果狀語從句,意為“如此…以至于…”,如I am so hungry that I ate six hamburgers.我是如此的餓以至于吃了六個漢堡包。
(3) :C句意:盡管他努力嘗試,但仍不能擺脫車禍的陰影。本題考查的是情態(tài)動詞的意義辨析。“might”表示推測,意為“也許”。“should”表示建議,意為“應該”。“could”表示能力,意為“能夠”。“would”表示意愿,意為“想要”。故C正確。
(4) :B句意:這首詩被翻譯成另一種語言之后讀起來會很奇怪。本題考查的是分詞結(jié)構(gòu)作狀語的用法。分詞結(jié)構(gòu)作狀語,若分詞結(jié)構(gòu)的主語與主句主語一致,動詞使用現(xiàn)在分詞形式;否則,使用過去分詞形式。poem是translate這個動作的賓語,而非主語,故B正確。
(5) :A句意:我該買哪款電腦需要你給點兒意見。本題考查的是介詞的用法。“advice on…”為固定搭配,后面接意見的內(nèi)容,意為“對…提出意見”。故A正確。
(6) :A句意:你喜歡西德尼給你的書嗎?——非常喜歡。這正是我想要的。本題考查的是連接詞的選擇。題干是一個表語從句且連接詞在從句中作賓語,因此需要由連接代詞引導。選項中what和which可以作為連接代詞引導表語從句,而what意為“所…的事物”,而which表示選擇“哪一個”。故A正確。
(7) :D句意:星期二伊利諾伊州下了幾英寸厚的暴風雪,造成至少100人死于交通事故。本題考查的是分詞結(jié)構(gòu)作狀語的用法。若分詞結(jié)構(gòu)的主語與主句主語一致,動詞使用現(xiàn)在分詞形式,否則,使用過去分詞形式。由題意可知,這場暴風雪正是造成100人死于交通事故的原因,即a storm是leave的主語,故D正確。
(8) :B句意:無論從哪個角度看,參加奧運會對任何人來說都是一項杰出的成就。本題考查的是it作代詞的用法。由題意可知,畫線部分和joiningthe Olympic Games指的是同一件事。it可以用作代詞,指代上下文重復出現(xiàn)的短語或者句子,以避免重復。故B正確。
【知識拓展】it可以用作人稱代詞和指示代詞。作人稱代詞時,it指代第三人稱單數(shù),代表前文已提到過的一件事物,如:I love swimming.It keeps me fit.我喜歡游泳,它能使我保持健康。同時,當說話者不清楚或無必要知道說話對象的性別時,也可用it來表示。如:It&
【知識拓展】it可以用作人稱代詞和指示代詞。作人稱代詞時,it指代第三人稱單數(shù),代表前文已提到過的一件事物,如:I love swimming.It keeps me fit.我喜歡游泳,它能使我保持健康。同時,當說話者不清楚或無必要知道說話對象的性別時,也可用it來表示。如:It’S a lovely baby.Is it a boy ora girl?寶寶真可愛,是男孩還是女孩?it作指示代詞時,常用來指人。如,一who is making such a noise?——是誰發(fā)出這樣的吵鬧聲?一It must be the children.——一定是孩子們。此外,it還可以用作沒有具體意義的主語,出現(xiàn)于表示天氣、氣候、溫度、時間、地點、距離等意義的句子中。如:It is half past three nOW,F(xiàn)在是三點半鐘。
(9) :C句意:——抱歉打擾你一下。這是五樓,對吧?——是的,你想去哪?本題考查的是日常用語的用法。A的意思為“你住在哪?”。B的意思為“你來自哪個國家?”。C的意思為“你想去哪?”。D的意思為“你在哪?”。故c正確。
(10) :B句意:——大衛(wèi)要下個月才能回家呢。哦,我說早了!——他回來了。本題考查的是日常用語的用法。speaktoo soon意為“說早了”。故B正確。
(11) :C句意:我反對認為女人的位置就在廚房這樣的想法。本題考查的是同位語從句的連接詞。由題意可知,“the woman’S place is in thekitchen.”是我反對的想法的內(nèi)容,因此該句是同位語從句,應由that引導。故C正確。
【知識拓展】同位語從句和定語從句的辨析是?嫉目键c。同位語從句同它所修飾的名詞在內(nèi)容上是等同關系,是在述說先行詞的具體內(nèi)容,而定語從句說明前一名詞的性質(zhì)、特征,對先行詞進行修飾、限制,是先行詞不可缺少的定語。引導詞在同位語從句中不作句子成分;而在定語從句中必作句子成分,是從句所修飾的詞的替代詞。試比較:The fact that theChinesepeople invented the compass is known to all。中國人發(fā)明指南針這個事實是眾所周知的。(同位語從旬)The fact that wetalked about is very important.我們談論的這個事實很重要。(定語從句)
(12) :D句意:這段路應該只需要30分鐘,但實際上通常要花一一個小時。本題考查的是介詞短語的意義辨析。“in turn”意為“輪流”。“ingeneral”意為“總體上…”。“in time”意為“及時”。“in fact”意為“實際上”。故D正確。
(13) :A句意:我越了解麗莎,就越喜歡她。本題考查的是固定句型“The more…the more…”。more后面分別接形容詞/副詞的比較級,意為“越…越…”。故A正確。
(14) :C句意:一一瓊斯先生來這家公司之前是做什么的?一一他開了超過25年的城市巴士。本題考查的是動詞時態(tài)。由題意可知,開城市巴士這個動作到現(xiàn)在為止持續(xù)了25年多,并且for +時間段是完成時的顯著標志。故C正確。
(15) :A句意:——今年我的生日趕在一個星期六。——太好r!我們有時問開個大party了!本題考查的是定冠詞和不定冠詞的用法。第一個空表示泛指,所以用不定冠詞a。第二個空同樣表示泛指,而time是不可數(shù)名詞,所以不填冠詞。故A正確。第二節(jié) 完形填空
閱讀下面短文,從短文后所給各題的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中選出能填人相應空白處的最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
(1) :A
參考譯文
你相信在美國第一個杰出的聾啞老師是一個法國人嗎?他的名字是羅倫·克拉克。十二歲時羅倫進入了巴黎皇家聾啞學院學習,成績非常突出。畢業(yè)后,學校請他留校成為一名教師。
與此同時,正在美國為成為一名牧師而學習的托馬斯·加勞德特遇到了一個年輕的聾啞女孩。他失望地發(fā)現(xiàn)美國居然沒有為聾啞人開辦的學校。因此,在1815年,加勞德特乘船前往倫敦,探求教聾啞人學習的方法。然而,加勞德特并沒有獲得任何幫助,為此他感到十分灰心。幸運的是,他遇到了一位法國教育家,這位法國教育家邀請加勞德特到巴黎的一所學校學習三個月,而這所學校正是克拉克任教的地方。學校安排克拉克教加勞德特手語。結(jié)果,這兩個人認識了彼此。
在加勞德特即將返回美國的時候,他邀請克拉克和他一起去美國。1816年6月,兩個人一起出發(fā),歷經(jīng)52天的航程,橫跨大西洋來到了美國。他們充分利用在船上的時間為他們想要開辦的聾啞學校做計劃。他們的愿望轉(zhuǎn)年在美國康涅狄格州變?yōu)榱爽F(xiàn)實。
在學校的日子克拉克十分忙碌。盡管他想要回到法國。但他始終沒能如愿。1869年7月18日克拉克在美國去世。法國的損失卻是美國珍貴的財富本題考查的是動詞的用法。enter意為“進入”,visit意為“拜訪”,hear of意為“聽說”,set up意為“創(chuàng)建”。根據(jù)上下文的意思,羅倫進入學校學習并且成績十分優(yōu)秀。故A正確。
(2) :C本題考查的是名詞的用法。work意為“工作”,preparation意為“準備”,graduation意為“畢業(yè)”,explanation意為“解釋”。上文提到羅倫求學的經(jīng)歷,因此可以推斷此句是講他畢業(yè)之后的事情。故C正確。
(3) :B本題考查的是對上下文的理解。上文提到羅倫求學的經(jīng)歷,那么他被邀請留在學校只能是做教師。故B正確。
(4) :D本題考查連接副詞的意義辨析。after意為“在…之后”,unless意為“除非”,because意為“因為”,when意為“當…時”。主句使用過去進行時態(tài),說明加勞德特學習成為一名牧師和他遇到一個聾啞女孩這兩個動作同時發(fā)生,故D正確。
(5) :A本題考查對全文的理解。通讀全文可知,文章介紹的是美國第一個聾啞學校的建立和第一位聾啞學生教師的事跡,故A正確。
(6) :A本題考查對上下文的理解。美國沒有一所聾啞學校是加勞德特赴倫敦尋求幫助的原因,因此應該選擇表示因果關系的連詞。therefore意為“因此”,however意為“然而,可是”,besides意為“并且”,meanwhile意為“與此同時”,故A正確。
(7) :D本題考查動詞的詞義辨析。0ffer意為“提供”,share意為“分享”,test意為“測試”,seek意為“尋求”。上文提到因為美國沒有一所聾啞學校,因此加勞德特去倫敦是要尋求相關信息,故D正確。
(8) :C本題考查對連詞however用法的掌握。however意為“然而,可是”,表示轉(zhuǎn)折關系,說明加勞德特沒能獲得幫助,故C正確。
(9) :B本題考查動詞詞義的辨析。join意為“加入”,invite意為“邀請”,order意為“命令”,permit意為“允許”。上文提到加勞德特在倫敦一無所獲,因而可以推知那位法國教育家邀請加勞德特到法國尋求幫助,故B正確。
(10) :A本題考查對上下文的理解。learn意為“學習”,monitor意為“監(jiān)測”,practice意為“練習”,review意為“復習;檢查”。根據(jù)上下文可知加勞德特獲邀到法國的學校學習,故A正確。
(11) :D本題考查對上下文的理解。上文提到加勞德特獲邀到克拉克任教的學校學習,因此可推斷出克拉克教授手語的對象正是加勞德特,故D正確。
(12) :C本題考查對上下文的理解。上文提到加勞德特來到克拉克任教的學校學習,下文提到他們共赴美國,由此可知他們在學校的時候相識。故C正確。
(13) :D本題考查對上下文的理解。上文提到加勞德特是美國人,獲邀在法國學習三個月,因此可推斷出此處表示他要返回美國了。故D正確。
(14) :A本題考查動詞詞組的意義。set out有“出發(fā)”的意思,get back意為“拿回;奪回”,settledown意為“定居;安定下來”,work out意為“想出;弄懂”。上文提到加勞德特邀請克拉克去美國,因此這里是說兩人一起出發(fā),故A正確。
(15) :B本題考查介詞的用法。to表示方向,across意為“橫跨”,from表示來源,over作介詞意為“在…上方”。根據(jù)題意,從倫敦回到美國要橫跨大西洋,故B正確。
(16) :D本題考查對上下文的理解。由上文可知,加勞德特和克拉克兩人在去往美國的途中充分利用了時間,可以推斷兩人是在為即將在美國開辦的聾啞學校做計劃,故D正確。
(17) :B本題考查關系詞的選擇。關系詞在句中引導定語從旬,修飾the new school for the deaf,且關系詞在從句中作0pen的賓語,故B正確。
(18) :D本題考查對上下文的理解。discover意為“發(fā)現(xiàn)”,buy意為“購買”,plan意為“計劃”,found意為“建立”。上文已經(jīng)提到加勞德特和克拉克計劃開辦聾啞學校,因此此處是指學校最終建立,故D正確。
(19) :D本題考查對上下文的理解。上文中連詞although意為“盡管…”,表明兩個分句間是轉(zhuǎn)折關系,因此可以推斷克拉克想要回到法國卻沒能如愿,并且根據(jù)下文克拉克在美國去世,可知他從未回到法國。故D正確。
(20) :B本題考查名詞的使用?死说娜ナ缹Ψ▏且粋損失。故B正確。
(1) :D他看到一位老婦人和她停在路邊的車子。他能看得出這位老婦人需要幫助。因此他把車停在她的車前面然后走了出去。
即使他面帶微笑,老婦人依然感到害怕。他看上去可不安全,而且又窮又餓。
他說,“我來幫助你,夫人。我的名字叫布萊恩·安德森。”其實只是爆胎而已,但是對這樣一位老婦人來說已經(jīng)算是很糟糕了。布萊恩幫老婦人更換了輪胎,老婦人感激不已。緊接著,老婦人問布萊恩應該付多少錢給他。老婦人已經(jīng)想象到了所有可能發(fā)生的不好的事情。布萊恩告訴老婦人,如果她真的想要報答他,那么下一次當她遇到需要幫助的人的時候,她可以伸出援手。
沿著公路開了幾英里,老婦人看到一間小咖啡館。她走進去。服務員臉上帶著甜蜜的笑容,那笑容即便在站了一整天之后還是無法抹去。老婦人注意到眼前的這個服務員已經(jīng)有了大約8個月的身孕,但她卻不讓自己的痛苦為人所知。老婦人想知道是什么讓一個幾乎一無所有的人卻仍然給予一個陌生人這么多。這時,她想到了布萊恩。用餐之后,老婦人付了一張100美元的鈔票。服務員馬上回去找零錢,但當她回來的時候,發(fā)現(xiàn)餐巾紙上有這樣的幾行字:“你不匙我什么。曾經(jīng)有個人幫助過我,就像我現(xiàn)在幫助你一樣。如果你真的想要回報我,就這樣做:不要讓愛的傳遞在你這里停止。”在餐巾紙的底下還放著4張100美元的鈔票。晚上服務員回到家,想起了老婦人寫下的話。老婦人怎么知道她和她的丈夫是多么地需要錢來迎接下個月即將出生的嬰兒呢?她躺在她的丈夫身邊,輕柔地低語。“一切都會好的。我愛你,布萊恩·安德森”。
推理題。題二F意為“為什么當布萊恩試圖幫助老婦人的時候,她感到擔憂?”從文中第二段對老婦人心理活動的描寫“He didn’t look safe.He looked poorand hungry.”
可以推斷老婦人害怕布萊恩傷害他。故D為正確答案。
(2) :C推理題。題干意為“為什么老婦人想要付錢給布萊恩?”從文中第三段對老婦人心理活動的描寫“Shehad already imagined all the temble things that could have happened.”可以推斷老婦人想要破財免災。故c為正確答案。
(3) :D推理題。題干意為“第五段中劃線的單詞erase是什么意思?”從第五段第三句話“She noticedthe waitress was nearly eight months pregnant,but she never let her aches be noticed.”可以推知服務員盡管已經(jīng)懷了8個月的身孕,但是不想讓別人感到她身體的不適,因此竭力讓自己的笑容不被抹去,故D為正確答案。
(4) :A細節(jié)題。題干意為“老婦人建議服務員如果想要報答她的話,要怎么做?”從文中第六段最后一句話“If youreally want to pay me back,here is whatyou d0:Do not let this chain oflove end with you.”可知,老婦人讓服務員將愛心傳遞下去,也就是繼續(xù)幫助其他人。故A為正確答案。
(5) :B主旨題。題干意為“以下哪項最適合做本文的標題?”通過本文敘述的兩個故事可以看出文章的主題是愛的傳遞,布萊恩付出的愛心經(jīng)由老婦人又傳遞回了他本人和他的妻子。故B為正確答案。
(6) :D
不同的國家擁有不同的文化 。同一個手勢可能在不同的國家有著不同的含義。比如,在非洲,人們通過敲打桌子來叫服務員,然而這在中國卻是不禮貌的。在西方國家,如果你用大拇指和食指環(huán)成一個圈
然后伸出其他三個手指,那就代表著“好的,沒問題”。同樣的手勢在日本是“金錢”的意思,而在巴西則表示對人的侮辱。了解了這些,你最好在到外國旅游之前先了解一下當?shù)氐娘L俗習慣。
問候是人際交往中重要的一部分。當問候別人的時候,美國人會伸出手,直視對方,并且面帶微笑。然而,有時候這樣的行為會在其他國家造成誤解。那些國家的人們不會用握手來彼此問候,而直視對方的眼睛也有著不同的含義。 ‘
亞洲人認為身體接觸是一件很尷尬的事情,因此他們并不握手。他們有自己打招呼的方式。對日本人來說,輕輕頷首就足夠了。在韓國,女性并不與人握手或者擁抱,而男性則可能握手并且輕輕點一下頭。在西亞,穆斯林并不與女性發(fā)生身體接觸,但是男性之間通常可以互相擁抱。眼神接觸也是一樣。在許多國家,A.-f]'3用避免眼神接觸來表示對對方的尊敬。這也可能造成誤解÷事實上,一些亞洲學生因為不與他們的美國老師進行眼神接觸而被認為對老師有失尊重。盡管不同的國家有不同的問候方式,微笑被看作是表達友好的通用方式。微笑暗示心情愉悅或者表達認可,同時也可以用來表達“打擾了”或者“請”。所以當你不確定該怎么做的時候,就微笑吧。
細節(jié)題。題干意為“當兩個日本人見面,他們通過什么方式相互問候?”根據(jù)文章第三段第三句“對日本人來說,輕輕頷首就足夠了。”可知輕輕點下頭就是日本人的問候方式。故D為正確答案。
(7) :D推理題。題干意為“如果一個美國人對一個日本人做出‘0K’的手勢,那么日本人可能會認為?”根據(jù)第一段第四、五句可知,美國人用“OK”的手勢表達“好的,沒問題”,而同一個手勢在日本表示“金錢”,由此可推知,如果日本人看到美國人擺出“OK”的手勢,可能會覺得是想要錢。故D為正確答案。
(8) :B細節(jié)題。題干意為“以下哪項中的行為會被認為是不禮貌的?”根據(jù)第三段末尾亞洲學生因為不與他們的美國老師進行眼神接觸而被認為對老師有失尊重的例子,可以推知美國人習慣進行直接的眼神接觸,故A項的行為是禮貌的。根據(jù)第三段第三句“對日本人來說,輕輕頷首就足夠了。”可知點頭致意是日本人的問候方式,故c項的行為是禮貌的。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知“微笑被看作是表達友好的通用方式”,因此D項對法國人來講,用微笑來表達自己喜悅的心情是禮貌的。根據(jù)第三段第五句“在西亞,穆斯林并不與女性發(fā)生身體接觸,但是男性之間通?梢曰ハ鄵肀”可知穆斯林的女性是不與人進行身體接觸的,所以B項的行為會被認為是不禮貌的。故B為正確答案。
(9) :B主旨題。題干意為“以下哪項是文章的最佳標題?”文章以不同手勢在不同國家的不同含義開始,引出各個國家問候方式的不同,接著講述了不同國家對待身體接觸和眼神接觸的不同態(tài)度。不難看出,文章是圍繞“不同國家,不同風俗習慣”這一一個主題進行的。故B為正確答案。
(10) :C一提起韓國,人們可能會想到很多東西,比如泡菜、化妝品和美女。實際上,韓國的手工制作衣服也很有名。在韓國,幾天的時間就可以讓你擁有一套手工制作的衣服,但是一定要留意尺寸,因為韓國的尺碼通常偏小一點,特別是對西方人來說。即便是一件大號的T恤衫對美國人來說也可能太小了!韓國的衣服由各種絲綢以及其他材料制作而成。你也可以在韓國購買傳統(tǒng)手工服裝。
那些傳統(tǒng)韓國服裝有著很悠久的歷史,這些歷史經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)在古代壁畫或者墓穴中。韓服是韓國文化的最佳代表。今天,人們在正式場合仍然穿著韓服。韓服由兩部分組成。上衣為長袖襯衫式樣,稱為“赤古里”。女性下裝穿著高腰背心裙,而男性則穿著像口袋一樣的褲子,也被稱為“巴基”。
在節(jié)日或者特殊的日子,普通韓國百姓一般穿著白色服裝,而上層階級則以穿著鮮艷的衣服來表明自己的社會地位。韓國人也會佩戴珠寶或者發(fā)飾來讓自己裝束完整。傳統(tǒng)韓服偏好用柔和的線條來遮掩身體的曲線,代表了韓國人對美和優(yōu)雅的追求。不同的韓服設計代表了韓國的豐富文化。
細節(jié)題。題干意為“下列關于第一段的表述哪項是正確的?”根據(jù)第一段第三句“在韓國,幾天的時間就可以讓你擁有一套手工制作的衣服”可知在韓國買到一身手工制
作的衣服并不困難,故A項不正確。第一段第三句同時指出在韓國購買服裝“一定要留意尺寸,因為韓國的尺碼通常偏小一點,特別是對西方人來說,即便是一件大號的T恤衫對美國人來說也可能太小了”,由此可以推知西方人在韓國買衣服需要注意尺碼,但并不是一定買不到合適的衣服,故B項不正確。D項的說法太過絕對,文中并沒有提及所有的韓國衣服都是手工制作的。根據(jù)第一段最后兩句可知,在韓國可以購買不同材質(zhì)的服裝,也可以購買傳統(tǒng)服飾,故C為正確答案。
(11) :D細節(jié)題。題干意為“——不會出現(xiàn)在傳統(tǒng)韓國女性服裝中。”根據(jù)第二段第四句和第五句可知,Hanbok是韓服的總稱,Jeogori(赤古里)是韓國男性和女性都會穿著的上裝,Chima(高腰背心裙)是韓國女性穿著的下裝,而Paji(巴基)則是韓國男性穿著的下裝,不會出現(xiàn)在傳統(tǒng)韓國女性服裝中。故D為正確答案。
(12) :B推理題。題干意為“在韓國的節(jié)日或者特殊日子里,我們?nèi)绾握J出社會地位高的人?”根據(jù)第三段第一句“在節(jié)日或者特殊的日子,普通韓國百姓一般穿著白色服裝,而上層階級則以穿著鮮艷來表明自己的社會地位。”可以推知韓國人通過衣服顏色的不同來表明社會地位。故B為正確答案。
(13) :B白斑狗魚是一種十分有害的魚類。它體型很大,容易饑餓,以捕食其他小型魚類為生。許多白斑狗魚居住在戴維斯湖。它們捕殺那里的小型魚類。白斑狗魚對戴維斯湖造成了嚴重的威脅,因為它們捕食那里的所有小型魚類。不久,湖中的所有其他魚類都會被它們吃光。這對環(huán)境來說是不健康的。
研究人員擔心白斑狗魚會通過許多匯入戴維斯湖的小河游出戴維斯湖。這樣它們就可能遍布整個國家,危害許多其他的水域。如果這種情況發(fā)生,到時再阻止白斑狗魚就太晚了。
十年來,官員們試圖將白斑狗魚移出戴維斯湖。他們嘗試用網(wǎng)捕撈和用毒藥毒殺白斑狗魚。但是,白斑狗魚依然在戴維斯湖生活得很好。許多人不贊成用毒藥毒殺白斑狗魚。他們擔心毒藥對同樣使用湖水的人類有害。但是,人們尚未在當?shù)氐木邪l(fā)現(xiàn)任何毒藥的痕跡。
科學家打算再次嘗試毒藥。這一次,他們將會先抽干湖水,然后放入毒藥。為了討論這個問題,將會召開一次向公眾開放的聽證會。
推理題。題干意為“這篇文章的體裁可能是什么?”由文章敘述的口吻可知文章是從觀察者的角度來客觀陳述戴維斯湖面臨的一個問題,由此可推斷文章體裁最有可能是一篇新聞報道,故B為正確答案。
(14) :A細節(jié)題。題干意為“如果白斑狗魚游出戴維斯湖將會發(fā)生什么?”由文章第二段可知,如果白斑狗魚游出戴維斯湖將會遍布全國,給更多的水域造成危害,到那時再阻止它們就來不及了。由此可知,如果任由它們游出戴維斯湖,則會失去對它們的控制。故A為正確答案。
(15) :D細節(jié)題。題干意為“在戴維斯湖使用毒藥的結(jié)果是什么?”由文章第三段第二、三句“They havetried using Nets and poisons.However,the Northern Pike population is still doingwell in Lake Davis.”可知,毒藥對白斑狗魚沒有產(chǎn)生任何效果。故I)為正確答案。
(16) :A推理題。題干意為“將要召開向公眾開放的聽證會是因為什么?”由文章第三段可知,人們反對用毒藥毒殺白斑狗魚,因為害怕人們使用的井水受到污染。而第四段第一句話指出科學家打算再次嘗試用毒藥消滅白斑狗魚,由此可以推出,召開聽證會的原因是當?shù)鼐用穹磳κ褂枚舅帲瑸榇艘髑蟠蠹业囊庖。故A為正確答案。
(17) :A
即使你的孩子是個好學生,你也不能指望他總是認真地完成作業(yè)。下面是一些關于如何幫助孩子更好地應對作業(yè)的實用建議。
確定固定的學習時間和學習地點。留出固定的做作業(yè)的時間和地點。如果你的孩子在上初中或者高中,讓他們自己制定自己的時間表。
一步一步來。孩子很可能會被大量需要做的作業(yè)壓倒。這時,鼓勵你的孩子冷靜地想清楚都需要做哪些作業(yè),需要多少時間,然后制定一個計劃。幫助你的孩子將作業(yè)分解成一個個可以掌控的步驟。
伸出援手。你不必幫助你的孩子做作業(yè)或者重新教他一遍課堂上教授的東西,但是你可以表現(xiàn)出你的興趣,鼓勵孩子獨立解決問題。
表揚做得好的功課。不管是多大的孩子都需要自己的工作得到肯定。表揚他們的成功,鼓勵他們繼續(xù)良好的表現(xiàn)。小的表揚會幫助他們建立健康的學習習慣。
主旨題。題干意為“這篇文章主要是寫給誰的?”通讀全文可知,文章講述的是如何幫助孩子更好地完成作業(yè),故而可以推知文章的讀者主要是家長。故A為正確答案。
(18) :D細節(jié)題。題干意為“當有太多作業(yè)要做的時候,應該鼓勵孩子如何去做?”由文章第三段最后一句話“Help yourchild break homework down into manageable steps.”可知應該鼓勵孩子將作業(yè)分解成可以掌控的步驟來做。故D為正確答案。
(19) :A推理題。題干意為“文章認為孩子應該被鼓勵去做什么?”由文章第四段第二句“You shouldn’t have to…you can helpout by showing your interest and by encouraging independent problem solving.”可推知應該鼓勵孩子自己管理學習。故A為正確答案。
(20) :B推理題。題干意為“如何最好地幫助孩子不斷進步?”由文章最后一段最后一句話“A littlepraise will go a long way in building healthy study habits.”可知不時地鼓勵表揚孩子可以讓孩子不斷進步。故B為正確答案。
