atacommunitygardeninEastHarlem,anditmadeherwanttobemoreinvolvedwithplants.（她在東哈林區(qū)的——

個社區(qū)花園做志愿者，這讓她想要更多地參與到植物中來。）”可知，她對園藝很癡迷熱愛。選項A“Talent

【答案】8.C9.D10.A11.B

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了由于家長們希望自己的孩子出類拔萃，有時候就會對青少年

和未成年裁判過于苛責(zé)，而這也導(dǎo)致越來越少的年輕人愿意從事這份工作。

【8題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容“Long-timereferees（裁判）indifferentyouthsportssaythere'sanexpectationfbr

refereestobeperfect.Parentswanttheirchildrentoexcel,andcoachesareunderpressuretowin.Sometimes,they

say,refereesbecomeascapegoat（替罪羊）.（不同青少年體育項目資深裁判表示，人們對裁判的期望是完美

的。家長們希望自己的孩子出類拔萃，教練們也承受著取勝的壓力。他們說，有時裁判會成為替罪羊。）”

可知，第一段講的是青少年裁判的艱難處境。故選C。

【9題詳解】

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線單詞前一句"It'shappeninginsoccer,ifshappeninginothersports,theabuse（辱罵）that

iscomingfromcoachesandparents.（在足球和其他運動中，教練和父母的辱罵都在發(fā)生。）”可知，而劃線單

詞“it”所在句“（hasabadeffectonayoungkid,youngladyoryoungmanthafsoutthererefereeing對年輕的孩

子、年輕的女士或年輕的男人都有不好的影響）”可知，it指的是辱罵。故選D。

【10題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段"""I'vebeeninrinks（溜冰場）whereI'vehadtogouptoparents,andit'shappenedthree

timesthisyear,becauseyouhaveparentsbangingontheglass,shoutingattheofficialforamissedcall（裁判員的判

決）.Yes,they'regonnamakemistakesandIgoupandtrytoeducatethatparent9,Hey,we'vegota13-year-oldkid

outhere.Youknow,weneedhimtostayintheprogram/^hesays.（“我去過溜冰場，我不得不去找父母，今年

已經(jīng)發(fā)生了三次，因為有父母敲打玻璃，為裁判員的判決向工作人員大喊大叫。是的，他們會犯錯誤，我

會去教育那個家長，“嘿，我們這里有一個13歲的孩子。你知道，我們需要他留在項目中，'"他說。）”

可推斷，PetteHe希望父母能夠多尊重青少年裁判。故選A。

【11題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段"Forthemostpart,it9sgettingtothepointwhereyouthusedtothinkthatitwas

agoodwaytomakeafewextradollars,betterthanflippinghamburgers.Butwithalltheshoutingandabusingthat

Folino,MichiganStateRefereeAdministrator.（“在很大程度上，年輕人過去認(rèn)為這是一個賺外快的好方法，比

烙漢堡包要好。但是由于他們經(jīng)常受到責(zé)罵，他們覺得不值得這么從事這份工作。這樣的話傳到他或她的

朋友那里，他或她的朋友因此不會從事這份工作，”密歇根州裁判行政官Folino說。）”可推斷，年輕人覺得

這份工作帶來的痛苦大于好處，不愿意從事這份工作。故選B。

【答案】12.D13.B14.C15.C

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了新加坡國策之一的拓展訓(xùn)練是如何走進新加坡以及其帶給新

加坡的變化。

【12題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段"Hesaidhehadhitchhiked（搭便車）hiswayfromWalestoGermany,crossingthe

AlpsjusttoshowhisgreatadmirationforHahn'sextraordinaryachievements—ifthatwasnotthespiritofadventure,

whatwas?（他說他從威爾士搭便車到德國，翻越阿爾卑斯山只是為了表達(dá)他對Hahn非凡成就的欽佩一一如

果這不是冒險精神，那是什么？）”以及文章第三段“Despitethelimitations,thisdidnotstopyoungSingaporeans

fromcontinuingtofollowinHahn'srichlegacy（遺產(chǎn)）ofoutdoorlearning.（盡管有這些限制，但這并沒有阻止年

輕的新加坡人繼續(xù)追隨Hahn豐富的戶外學(xué)習(xí)遺產(chǎn)。）”可推斷，Shanmugam來到Hermannsburg的目的就是

了解拓展訓(xùn)練。故選D。

【13題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段Overlunch,Shanmugamtoldtheeducatorthathehadcomefromafarawaycountry

SingaporeansfromcontinuingtofollowinHahn'srichlegacy（遺產(chǎn)）ofoutdoorlearning.（午餐時，Shanmugam告

訴這位教育家，他來自一個遙遠(yuǎn)的國家，名叫新加坡。他談到這個平坦的熱帶小島，幾乎沒有登山、極地

探險或極端景觀的體驗。盡管有這些限制，但這并沒有阻止年輕的新加坡人繼續(xù)追隨Hahn豐富的戶外學(xué)習(xí)

遺產(chǎn)。）”可知，這位新加坡小伙子沒有辦法在新加坡進行戶外培訓(xùn)項目是因為新加坡地勢平坦，沒有各種

各樣的地形。故選B。

【14題詳解】

2田節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段”In1934,asIhefounderandheadmasterofGordonstounSchoolinMoray,Scotland,

heaskedhisstudentstomakeregularsailingexpeditions（定期航海探險）andhill-walking.（1934年，作為蘇格蘭

馬里Gordonstoun學(xué)校的創(chuàng)始人和校長，他要求他的學(xué)生定期航海探險和爬山。）”以及文章第五段“During

theSecondWorldWar,HahnstartedanewkindofschoolinAberdoveyinWalestotrainyouths:aone-monthcourse

involvingexpeditionsacrossthreemountainranges,rescuetrainingandvolunteerworkinthelocalcommunity.（第

二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間，Hahn在威爾士的阿伯多維開辦了一所新式學(xué)校來訓(xùn)練年輕人：為期一個月的課程，內(nèi)

容包括穿越三座山脈的探險、救援訓(xùn)練和當(dāng)?shù)厣鐓^(qū)的志愿工作。）”可知，這兩個地區(qū)學(xué)校的共同之處在于

都對學(xué)生進行戶外生活技能。故選C。

【15題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段“"Wewantallouryoungpeopletobestrong,adaptableandcreative.Outdoor

adventurelearningisespeciallyusefulingivingtheselessons,whichareveryhardtoteachintheclassroom,said

Singapore'sPrimeMinisterLeeHsienLoong.（"我們希望我們所有的年輕人都強壯、適應(yīng)能力強、富有創(chuàng)造力。

戶外冒險學(xué)習(xí)對于教授這些課程尤其有用，而這些課程在課堂上很難教授。”新加坡總理李顯龍說。）”可推

斷，李顯龍總理認(rèn)為年輕人應(yīng)該學(xué)習(xí)在野外生存。故選C。

第二節(jié)（共5小題海小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）

【答案】16.G17.C18.F19.D20.B

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇說明文。文章講的是如何更好的管理自己的財富。

【16題詳解】

根據(jù)上文“Whenyou9rejuststartingyourfinancialjourney,being“successful“mightfeellikealongwayoff."（當(dāng)

你剛剛開始你的財務(wù)之旅時，“成功”可能會感覺很遙遠(yuǎn)。）以及后文的“Withthesetips,youcangetstartedearly

tosetyourselfupforfinancialsuccess.（有了這些建議，你可以盡早開始為自己的財務(wù)成功做好準(zhǔn)備。）”可知，

此處需要一個承上啟下的過渡句，雖然管理好自己的財務(wù)很難，但是專家的建議可以祝你成功，G選項“So

weinvitedthreefinanceexpertstotalkabouthowtomakesmartmoneymoves.（因此，我們邀請了三位金融專家

來談?wù)勅绾巫龀雒髦堑耐顿Y舉動。）"中threefinanceexperts提出了如何管理自己金錢的建議。與下文的these

tips形成呼應(yīng)。故選G。

【17題詳解】

根據(jù)后文的"It'simportanttoensureyouarealwaysmakingmoremoneythanyouarespending.（確保你總是賺的

比花的多是很重要的。）”可知，管理自己金錢過程中很重要的是要確保賺的總比花的多。賺的多花的少是

一個簡單的數(shù)學(xué)問題。故C選項uBeingfinanciallysuccessfulcomesdowntosimplemath.（經(jīng)濟上的成功可以

歸結(jié)為簡單的數(shù)學(xué)。）”中的simplemath與后文的makingmoremoneythanyouarespending形成呼應(yīng)，強調(diào)

的是賺的多花的少是一個數(shù)學(xué)問題。故選C。

【18題詳解】

根據(jù)本段的段旨“Usefinancialplanningsoftware（使用財務(wù)規(guī)劃軟件）”以及后文中“Theyaregreattoolstoensure

youareontracktoreachingyourmoneygoals.（它們是很好的工具，可以確保你在實現(xiàn)你的金錢目標(biāo)的軌道

上。）”可知，此處強調(diào)的是一些規(guī)劃軟件是可以幫助你實現(xiàn)金錢控制的。F選項“Inaddition,olherapps,such

asMintandYouNeedaBudget,canalsohelpyou.（止匕外，其他應(yīng)用程序如Mint和YouNeedaBudget,也可以

幫助你。）”中介紹了常用應(yīng)用程序，與前文的software呼應(yīng)，同時與空后的They構(gòu)成指代關(guān)系，故選F。

【19題詳解】

根據(jù)前文的"Howmuchyoushouldhavesaveddependsonthegoalofyoursavingsaccount（你應(yīng)該存多少錢取

決于你儲蓄賬戶的目標(biāo)。）”可知，此處強調(diào)要設(shè)定自己的儲蓄賬戶目標(biāo)。D選項“Isitforyourcollege,avacation,

anemergencyfundorsomethingelse?（是為了上大學(xué)、度假、應(yīng)急基金還是其他什么?）”中的it指代前文的儲

蓄目標(biāo)，此處對儲蓄的目標(biāo)進行舉例說明如為了上大學(xué)、度假、應(yīng)急基金或其他目標(biāo)而存錢。故選D。

【20題詳解】

根據(jù)前文“SeiupsavingstobeautomaticbecauseyouneedtopayyourselfArst（建立自動儲蓄，因為你在月初

要先給自己存錢。）”可知，形成存錢習(xí)慣首先要在月初存錢，后文應(yīng)該強調(diào)接下來做什么。同時根據(jù)后

文“It'shappeningeverymonthwithoutyouneedingtoliftafinger.（它每個月都在發(fā)生，而你不需要自己費心。）”

可知，當(dāng)存錢形成習(xí)慣后，自己則不用去在多想它，它自然而然地就會發(fā)生。B選項“Thenyoudon'thaveto

Ihinkaboulit.（那你就不用想了。）”中的then與前文的first承接，月初存錢之后，就不用在多去想它，由此

會形成存錢習(xí)慣，就不用費勁了。故選B。
