考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第二段中的“…myjacketbecauseit’tnotwell.Itwasahand-me-downfrommy與第四段中的“Thesearen’tmyboots...Thymybrother’smothermakesmewearthem”可知作者穿的是她哥哥的夾克與靴子。.14

22．A

.考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章的最后一段的“Ididn’twanttolosethem,soIputthemintothetoesofmyboots可知讓幫助穿鞋的老師費(fèi)了那么多耐心與力氣的是藏在鞋子里的手套。23．D

考查推理判斷。從文章第三段與第四段可知老師要幫小作者穿四次鞋：第一次是穿錯了腳，第二次是脫下來重新穿上，第三次是作者說了“aren’tmyboots”之后，她又把鞋脫下來，當(dāng)聽說是作者的媽媽非讓作者穿哥哥的鞋后又把它們給作者穿上第四次是聽說手套被放在鞋子里了就又脫下來重新穿了一次（文中沒有點(diǎn)明，但可推出）。24考查細(xì)節(jié)理解經(jīng)過多年的磨礪老師每次給她穿鞋都是那么有耐心，好像一點(diǎn)也不把小女孩的頑皮放在心上，這足以說明老師很體貼人。25．C

考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第一段的最后一句可知婦女們聚在一起總有說不完的話是因為她們認(rèn)為在一起就要玩得愉快，同時加深關(guān)系。26．B

考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章的第三段中的itasaofbonding可知，女人度假回來會給朋友打電話長聊是因為她們把電話看做維系關(guān)系的紐帶。27．A

考查寫作意圖。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的“girlbetterorganizedtosendandreceivespeech一句可知，作者最想讓讀者知道的就是她們能滔滔不絕的原因是她們的大腦在交流當(dāng)中更善于處理信息。28．C

考查標(biāo)題歸納。本文是圍繞女人喜歡講話這個話題來展開的，因此C項為最佳標(biāo)題。29．C

考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章第一段的“busticketscanbepurchased(QueenslandUniversityShort-termstudentsatQUTcannotusetheirID…”可以判斷，這份交通指導(dǎo)是由QueenslandUniversityofTechnology供的。30．D

考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章中saver中的說明“10tripsatanytimethezonesonbuses”可知Ten-tripsavers在任何時候都可以使用，當(dāng)然也包括“atoff-peaktime”。.15

31．B

.考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。因為他每天都乘坐汽車上學(xué)，往返次數(shù)多，他可以選擇Weekly，因為Weekly提供“Unlimitedtravelwithinthezonesforoneweekfromthedateofissue”。32．B

考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第二段中的“topsoillayerisupofsmallofrockwiththetopsoilitsdarkcolour.Thislayerisusuallyrichinnutrients可知給植物提供必要營養(yǎng)的土層是topsoillayer.33．B

考查細(xì)節(jié)判斷。根據(jù)文章第二段中的“thetopsoilisthesubsoil,a1ayermorestonesmixedwithonlyoforganicmatter.Thislayerislighterincolourbecauseofthelackofhumus”可知，并不是土層深，它的顏色就深。34

考查細(xì)節(jié)理解據(jù)文章第四段中“Eventuallythereache
