答案和解析1~3.【答案】B、A、C【解析】（1）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)CristoRedentor部分ItcanbeeasilyaccessedviathecitybusthatstartsoffintheSanta'Teresaneighborhood.（它可以很容易地通過城市公共汽車，從圣誕老人的特蕾莎社區(qū)出發(fā)。）可知，你可以乘坐公共交通工具參觀CristoRedentor，故選B。

（2）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)PatiodoColegio部分ThissmallJesuitCollegemaynotlooktoogrand，butitisthefoundingsiteofSaoPauloitself.Basedonhistoryandfolktale，ifthisbuildingwasnotbuiltbyJesuitmonks，thecityofSaoPaulowouldnotbearoundtoday.（這所規(guī)模不大的耶穌會學院看上去可能不太宏偉，但它是圣保羅本身的建校地點。根據(jù)歷史和民間傳說，如果這座建筑不是由耶穌會僧侶建造的，圣保羅城就不會存在于今天。）可知，在SaoPaulo可以參觀文化大樓，故選A。

（3）目的意圖題。通讀全文，尤其是第一段Acountryisoftendefinedbyitsmemorableandimpressivelandmarks.Brazilisnoexception.Herearethemust-seenatural，andman-madelandmarksthatmakeBrazilunique.（一個國家往往是由其令人難忘和印象深刻的地標來定義的。巴西也不例外。這里是巴西獨一無二的自然和人造地標。）和文章介紹的四個地標可知，文章主要介紹了四個必看的巴西地標。由此可推知，文章的目的是介紹四個必看的巴西地標。A．TointroducetheuniquesymbolofBrazil.介紹巴西獨特的象征；B．ToexplorethelargestwildernessareasinBrazil去探索巴西最大的荒野地區(qū)；C．Tointroducefourmust-seeBrazilianlandmarks.介紹四個必看的巴西地標；D．TodisplayimpressivemodernBrazilianlandmarks展示令人印象深刻的現(xiàn)代巴西地標。故選C。

這篇短文主要介紹了巴西的一些必看地標。首先是基督像，它是坐落在科爾科瓦多山上俯瞰里約熱內(nèi)盧的一座巨大的耶穌基督雕像，成為了這座城市的標志。其次是帕蒂奧多科萊吉奧，這座小型的耶穌會學院是圣保羅市的創(chuàng)始地。再次是亞馬遜雨林和亞馬遜河，亞馬遜雨林是世界上最大、生物多樣性最豐富的熱帶雨林，而亞馬遜河則是世界上水量和排放量最大的河流，兩者共同創(chuàng)造了壯觀的自然荒野。最后是伊瓜蘇瀑布，這是一處水勢洶涌、聲勢浩大的景觀，瀑布被分為許多較小的瀑布和一個大而令人印象深刻的陡峭瀑布，被稱為"魔鬼之喉"。

1．直接信息題：直接信息題是指能夠直接從原文中找到信息，選項在語言表達上與原文基本一致的題目。2．間接信息題：間接信息題是能夠從原文中找到信息，但在語言表達上與原文有差異，做題時需要對原文信息進行轉(zhuǎn)換。3．綜合信息題：綜合信息題是指這類題目所涉及的信息不是原文的某一句話，可能是原文的幾句話，或者是散落在文章不同的地方，要求學生把原文所提供的信息綜合起來分析，而不能斷章取義。

4~7.【答案】C、D、C、B【解析】（1）推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段Neighborsbegantostopbytointroducethemselvesandsitdownforachat.Kristininvitedpeopletojoinheratthetableforcoffeeoricedtea."Itwasasimplewaytoslowdownandconnectwithothers，"shesays.Theturquoisetablewasinvitingandhadacommunalfeel.（鄰居們開始過來做自我介紹，坐下來聊天?？死锼雇⊙埲藗兒退黄鹱谧肋吅瓤Х然虮琛Ｋf："這是一種簡單的方式，可以讓你放慢腳步，與他人交流。"那張綠松石色的桌子很誘人，有一種公共的感覺）可知，TheTurquoiseTable加強了社區(qū)的聯(lián)系。故選C。

（2）推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段Thedeliverydriversetonetabledowninherfrontyardbymistake，andKristincouldn'tgettheimageoutofherhead."Aftertheparty，Ipaintedthetableturquoise-myfavoritecolor-andputitinthefrontyard，justafewfeetfromthesidewalk，"shesays.（外賣司機不小心把一張桌子放在了她的前院，克里斯汀無法將這一幕從她的腦海中抹去。"聚會結(jié)束后，我把桌子漆成了我最喜歡的綠松石色，然后把它放在前院，離人行道只有幾英尺遠，"她說）可知，克里斯汀偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)一張放錯位置的桌子才想到這個運動的。故選D。

（3）觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段Kristininvitedpeopletojoinheratthetableforcoffeeoricedtea.（克里斯汀邀請人們和她一起坐在桌邊喝咖啡或冰茶）以及最后一段I'velearnedthathospitalitydoesn'talwaysmeanentertainingpeoplewithamealorabigparty.（我明白了待客之道并不總是用一頓飯或一個盛大的聚會來招待別人）可推知，克里斯汀熱情友好。A．Humorous

and

careful.幽默又細心的；B．Ambitious

and

positive.雄心勃勃，積極向上的；C．Warmhearted

and

friendly.熱心友好的；D．Hardworking

and

considerate.勤勞體貼的。故選C。

（4）標題歸納題。根據(jù)第一段"I'velearnedthathospitalitydoesn'talwaysmeanentertainingpeoplewithamealorabigparty.Atthepicnictable，allIhavetodoisshowup."Shelikeshowitenableshertotakeasmallsteptowardeasinglonelinessandbuildingrelationshipsinhercommunity."People'sgreatestneedistoknowthattheyarelovedandthattheybelong，"shesays.（"我明白了待客之道并不總是用一頓飯或一個盛大的聚會來招待別人。在野餐桌上，我所要做的就是露面。"她喜歡它能讓她在緩解孤獨感和建立社區(qū)關(guān)系方面邁出一小步。"人們最大的需求是知道自己被愛著，有歸屬感，"她說）結(jié)合文章主要說明了KristinSchell創(chuàng)立了"綠松石桌"加強了社區(qū)之間的聯(lián)系，文章還介紹了活動創(chuàng)立的經(jīng)過。故B選項"歡迎所有人的餐桌"最符合文章標題。故選B。

這是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了KristinSchell創(chuàng)立了"綠松石桌"加強了社區(qū)之間的聯(lián)系，文章還介紹了活動創(chuàng)立的經(jīng)過。

一、速讀全文，了解大意知主題。

閱讀能力一般指閱讀速度和理解能力兩個方面。閱讀速度是閱讀最基本的能力，考生必須在十分有限的時間內(nèi)運用略讀、掃讀、跳讀等技巧快速閱讀，搜尋關(guān)鍵詞、主題句，捕捉時空、順序、情節(jié)、人物、觀點，并且理清文章脈絡(luò)，把握語篇實質(zhì)。

二、看題干，帶著問題讀文章。

首先要掌握問題的類型，客觀信息題可以從文章中直接找到答案；而主觀判斷題考查的是對文章的感情基調(diào)等，這類題必須經(jīng)過對作者的態(tài)度、意圖以及對整篇文章進行深一層的推理等。其次，了解試題題干以及各個選項所包含的信息，然后有針對性地對文章進行掃讀，對有關(guān)信息進行快速定位。此法加強了閱讀的針對性，提高了做題的準確率。

三、邏輯推理，做好深層理解題。

在實際閱讀中，有時作者并未把意圖說出來，閱讀者要根據(jù)字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關(guān)系，研究細節(jié)的暗示，推敲作者的態(tài)度，理解文章的寓義。要求讀者對文字的表面信息進行分析、挖掘和邏輯推理，不能就事論事，以偏概全。推理題在提問中常用的詞有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜詞悟義，掃除閱讀攔路虎。

猜詞是應(yīng)用英語的重要能力。它不但需要準確無誤地理解上下文，而且要有較大的泛讀量，掌握或認識較多的課外詞匯。我們要學會"順藤摸瓜"，通過構(gòu)詞，語法，定義，同位，對比，因果，常識，上下文等線索確定詞義。

8~11.【答案】D、B、C、D【解析】（1）推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，文章主要介紹了名叫ARTEMIS的首款足球機器人，由此可推知，第一段Watchout，LionelMessi.ARTEMISishere.（注意，萊昂內(nèi)爾?梅西。ARTEMIS來了。）提到LionelMessi是為了引出文章主題——ARTEMIS足球機器人。A．To

present

a

story.講述一個故事；B．To

raise

a

question.提出一個問題；C．To

make

a

comparison.做個對比；D．To

introduce

a

topic.引出一個話題。故選D。

（2）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中But

what

sets

ARTEMIS

apart

on

top

of

that

is

its

ability

to

kick

a

ball.（但是，讓

ARTEMIS

脫穎而出的是它踢球的能力。）可知，ARTEMIS的亮點是，它有踢足球的技能。故選B。

（3）詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線單詞所在句子While

ARTEMIS

may

not

be

at

the

next

FIFA

World

Cup，Hong's

team

will

unveil

its

full

soccer

capabilities

at

RoboCup

in

Bordeaux，F(xiàn)rance，in

July.（雖然

ARTEMIS不會參加下一屆世界杯，但Hong的團隊將于7月在法國波爾多舉行的RoboCup上unveil其全部足球能力。）中的while可知，前后是讓步轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，雖然ARTEMIS可能不會參加下一屆世界杯，但在法國波爾多舉行的RoboCup上Hong的團隊會展示ARTEMIS全部的足球技能，由此可推知，劃線單詞unveil意為"展示"，與C項"Display.（展示）"意思一樣。A．Recover.康復；B．Anticipate.期望；C．Display.展示；D．Appreciate.感激。故選C。

（4）推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段ARTEMIS'

actuators

are

also

unique

in

that

they

are

electrically

driven，rather

than

controlled

by

hydraulics

（液壓裝置）.That

means

it

is

quieter

and

operates

more

efficiently，while

also

being

cleaner，because

hydraulic

systems

are

not

welcomed

for

leaking

water.（ARTEMIS的驅(qū)動器也是獨一無二的，因為它們是電力驅(qū)動的，而不是由液壓裝置。這意味著它更安靜，運行效率更高，同時也更清潔，因為液壓系統(tǒng)因漏水而不受歡迎。）可推知，ARTEMIS的電力驅(qū)動系統(tǒng)優(yōu)于液壓裝置。故選D。

本文是說明文。文章主要介紹了名叫ARTEMIS的首款足球機器人。

一、速讀全文，了解大意知主題。

閱讀能力一般指閱讀速度和理解能力兩個方面。閱讀速度是閱讀最基本的能力，考生必須在十分有限的時間內(nèi)運用略讀、掃讀、跳讀等技巧快速閱讀，搜尋關(guān)鍵詞、主題句，捕捉時空、順序、情節(jié)、人物、觀點，并且理清文章脈絡(luò)，把握語篇實質(zhì)。

二、看題干，帶著問題讀文章。

首先要掌握問題的類型，客觀信息題可以從文章中直接找到答案；而主觀判斷題考查的是對文章的感情基調(diào)等，這類題必須經(jīng)過對作者的態(tài)度、意圖以及對整篇文章進行深一層的推理等。其次，了解試題題干以及各個選項所包含的信息，然后有針對性地對文章進行掃讀，對有關(guān)信息進行快速定位。此法加強了閱讀的針對性，提高了做題的準確率。

三、邏輯推理，做好深層理解題。

在實際閱讀中，有時作者并未把意圖說出來，閱讀者要根據(jù)字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關(guān)系，研究細節(jié)的暗示，推敲作者的態(tài)度，理解文章的寓義。要求讀者對文字的表面信息進行分析、挖掘和邏輯推理，不能就事論事，以偏概全。推理題在提問中常用的詞有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜詞悟義，掃除閱讀攔路虎。

猜詞是應(yīng)用英語的重要能力。它不但需要準確無誤地理解上下文，而且要有較大的泛讀量，掌握或認識較多的課外詞匯。我們要學會"順藤摸瓜"，通過構(gòu)詞，語法，定義，同位，對比，因果，常識，上下文等線索確定詞義。

12~15.【答案】A、C、C、D【解析】（1）文章出處題。通讀全文，尤其是第一段Inmostpartsoftheworld，stormcloudswouldbegreetedwithafrown.ButinIndia，it'ssaidthatwhenthemonsoonrainscome，abillionpeoplesmile.Monsoonseason，alsoknownastherainyseason，iscloselytiedtoIndia'seconomy.TheabundantrainsbringlifetoIndia'sfarmland，whichprovideshundredsofmillionsofjobstofarmworkersandhelpsfeeditsvastpopulation.（在世界的大部分地區(qū)，迎接暴風云的將是皺眉頭。但是在印度，據(jù)說當季風雨來臨時，十億人會微笑。季風季節(jié)，也被稱為雨季，與印度的經(jīng)濟密切相關(guān)。豐沛的降雨給印度的農(nóng)田帶來了生機，為農(nóng)場工人提供了數(shù)億個工作崗位，并幫助養(yǎng)活了其龐大的人口。）可知，文章主要介紹了印度的雨季給印度帶來的好處，結(jié)合選項A."飛機上提供的免費雜志上。"；B."在一本關(guān)于地理的年度評論書中。"；C."在一個國際旅行社的自傳里。"；D."在一本關(guān)于印度宗教的文學評論書中。"可推知，本文屬于科普類文章，最有可能出現(xiàn)在飛機上提供的免費雜志上。故選A。

（2）詞句猜測題。根據(jù)第一段中ButinIndia，it'ssaidthatwhenthemonsoonrainscome，abillionpeoplesmile.（但是在印度，據(jù)說當季風雨來臨時，十億人會微笑。）和Monsoonseason，alsoknownastherainyseason，iscloselytiedtoIndia'seconomy.TheabundantrainsbringlifetoIndia'sfarmland，whichprovideshundredsofmillionsofjobstofarmworkersandhelpsfeeditsvastpopulation.（季風季節(jié)，也被稱為雨季，與印度的經(jīng)濟密切相關(guān)。豐沛的降雨給印度的農(nóng)田帶來了生機，為農(nóng)場工人提供了數(shù)億個工作崗位，并幫助養(yǎng)活了其龐大的人口。）可知，季風雨與整個印度經(jīng)濟相關(guān)，降雨不僅為農(nóng)場工人提供了數(shù)億個工作崗位，并幫助養(yǎng)活了其龐大的人口，由此可推知，abillionpeople指的是受季風雨影響的印度人民，即受季風影響國家的人民。A．The

（4）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中HequotesalocalfromMumbaiwhodescribesthemonsoonasametaphorforcleansingandrebirth.（他引用了一位來自孟買的當?shù)厝说脑?，這位當?shù)厝藢⒓撅L比喻為凈化和重生。）可知，印度當?shù)氐淖诮倘耸繉⒓撅L看成是凈化和重生，故選D。
