答案解析

I.

語(yǔ)篇解讀本文作者向人們介紹了一位慷慨、體貼的老板一一薪廠

1.C［細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段可知，察坎以對(duì)員工非常的慷慨而著名。故答案為C。］

2.A［細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二句中的"Cakanthoughthisbestpeopleshouldn,t

havetostruggletogettowork”可知，察坎為他最優(yōu)秀的員工提供汽車(chē)是為了讓他們

輕松地去上班。由此可知答案為A。］

3.B［標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)第一段及下文內(nèi)容可知，本文敘述的是一位慷慨、體貼的老板一

察坎。故"AConsiderateEmployer（—位體貼的老板）”作本文標(biāo)題最佳。］

語(yǔ)篇解讀文章介紹了業(yè)余愛(ài)好對(duì)老年人的好處：鍛煉腦力、強(qiáng)身健體。作者呼吁人們馬

上行動(dòng)起來(lái)。

4.D［推理判斷題。由第二段中的"Theyhavespentsuchagreatdealoftimeraising

theirfamily...Quiteoften,itisnottheiragethatistheconcern.Itisthefact

thattheyareunexpectedlyofferedmoretimeontheirhands."可知,很多老年人年

輕時(shí)把時(shí)間主要用來(lái)養(yǎng)家糊口，年老之后，他們擔(dān)心的不是變老，而是他們有了過(guò)多的可以

自由支配的時(shí)間。由此推知，他們?cè)瓉?lái)很少有自由時(shí)間。故D選項(xiàng)正確。］

5.A［細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段中的"Yourmindneedsworkingoutmuchlikeanyother

musclesinyourbody.Thisiswhygettingahobbymatters.n可知，就像你身體的其

他部位一樣，你的大腦需要鍛煉。這就是業(yè)余愛(ài)好重要的原因?？芍?，業(yè)余愛(ài)好可以鍛煉大

腦、增強(qiáng)腦力。故A選項(xiàng)正確。］

6.C［詞義猜測(cè)題。第三段和第四段主要介紹了業(yè)余愛(ài)好可以鍛煉腦力，同時(shí)對(duì)身體有好

處。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，該畫(huà)線單詞意思應(yīng)為C選項(xiàng)：極好的。］

7.C［標(biāo)題歸納題。文章主要介紹了業(yè)余愛(ài)好對(duì)老年人的好處。最后一段是總結(jié)段。最后

一段提到我們可以從業(yè)余愛(ài)好中受益。你可以有很多選擇，馬上開(kāi)始吧。故C項(xiàng)適合做該文

標(biāo)題?］

語(yǔ)篇解讀本文是一篇科普類(lèi)文章。你所使用的手機(jī)或電腦設(shè)備能否影響你的道德決

策？為此，研究者對(duì)1,010位參與者做了研究。

8.C［推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的"Onecaseofthequestionsparticipantswereasked

istheclassic'trolley（有軌電車(chē)）problem'”可推斷出，作者提到有軌電車(chē)問(wèn)題，只

是展示了研究中問(wèn)題的一個(gè)例子。故選C。］

9.A［細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的"Whatwefoundinourstudyisthatwhenpeople

usedasmartphonetoviewclassicmoralproblems,theyweremorelikelytomakemore

unemotional,reasonabledecisionswhenpresentedwithahighlyemotionaldilemma”

可知，面對(duì)情感困境，手機(jī)使用者能夠更冷靜地處理。故選A。］

10.C［細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Thiscouldbeduetotheincreasedtimepressure

oftenpresentwithsmartphonesandalsotheincreasedpsychologicaldistancewhich

canoccurwhenweusesuchdevicescomparedtoPCs.“可知，與電腦相比，手機(jī)更使

人感到精神上的疏遠(yuǎn)。故選C。］

11.D［推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Duetothefactthatoursociallives,work

andevenshoppingtakeplaceonline,itisimportanttothinkabouthowthecontexts

wherewetypicallyfacemoraldecisionsandareaskedtoengageinmoralbehavior

havechanged,andtheimpactthiscouldhaveonthehundredsofmillionsofpeople

whousesuchdevicesdaily.M可知，在日常生活中，人們參與道德決策是很普遍的。］

II.

語(yǔ)篇解讀提及技術(shù)，成年人將無(wú)法跟上他們的孩子。本文論述的是數(shù)字世界里的青少

年大腦。

12.B［根據(jù)上文“butittookonly20yearsforthephonetoreachthesamenumber,

and13yearsforthetelevision.Incontrast,ittookFacebook3.6years.”由此可

知，B項(xiàng)（Twitteronlyneeded88days.推特只需要88天。）與之匹配。］

13.F［根據(jù)上句：他們的大腦似乎有非凡的能力去適應(yīng)周?chē)氖澜?。以及下文?enabling

teenagerstokeepupwiththeincreasingpaceofdigitaltechnology可知，止匕處

說(shuō)的是青少年的大腦可以適應(yīng)新技術(shù)。故答案為F。］

14.G［根據(jù)上句：在美國(guó)，青少年平均每天花&5小時(shí)在電腦、手機(jī)和其他設(shè)備上學(xué)習(xí)、

互動(dòng)和玩耍。G項(xiàng)指出，如果你把所有的多任務(wù)處理都包括在內(nèi)，這就增加到1L5小時(shí)，

承接上句。］

15.D［根據(jù)下文：視頻網(wǎng)站表示，全世界的青少年都在觀看同樣的片段，并因?yàn)橥粋€(gè)笑

話而哈哈大笑，這表明他們比過(guò)去的青少年更具有全球意識(shí)?？芍?，數(shù)字趨勢(shì)的增長(zhǎng)是有優(yōu)

勢(shì)的。故選D。］

16.A［根據(jù)下句：到30歲時(shí)，我們的大腦將會(huì)變得僵化，讓我們更難適應(yīng)和應(yīng)對(duì)新技術(shù)。

可知此空的意思是：適應(yīng)新技術(shù)也不是無(wú)限制的，有一個(gè)截止。此空位于句首，和上文內(nèi)容

是一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。故選A。］

答案解析

I.

語(yǔ)篇解讀作者小時(shí)候和好朋友因?yàn)榧]而偷了老師的信，導(dǎo)致了老師和男朋友關(guān)系破

裂。作者和好朋友為此感到非常后悔和羞愧。

1.B［細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后兩句"Applewantedthatstampbadlyandtheidea

ofstealingtheletteroccurredtohim.Iwasfrightenedandbeggedhimnottodo

that."可知，作者當(dāng)時(shí)對(duì)Apple的計(jì)劃感到害怕。故選B。］

2.A［細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第二句"Itwasaman,shandwriting.Intheletter,

themanimploredourteachertoforgivehimandaskedhertomeethimatthegate

ofCentralParkateightthatevening.v可知，這位男士給作者的老師寫(xiě)信是為了向她

道歉。故選限］

3.D［推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中“Shesaidthatsheoncehadafriendwhowasa

stamp-collectortoo,butshehadlosthimforeverw可知,老師和那位男士最后分手

了。故選D。］

4.A［推理判斷題。根據(jù)前面的講述可知，是Apple和作者的錯(cuò)誤行為導(dǎo)致了老師和男朋

友分手；不知道真相的老師還把她本來(lái)為男朋友收集的郵票給了Apple；再根據(jù)最后一段第

一句"Afewdayslater,Applerantomewithstampsinhishandandtearsinhis

eyes.”可知，Apple一定是非?；诤拮约旱男袨?，所以很可能以后都不再集郵了。故選A。］

II.

語(yǔ)篇解讀作者的老師讓他們討論什么時(shí)候一個(gè)人才被視為老人，同學(xué)們對(duì)此各抒己見(jiàn)。

作者以70歲的奶奶仍堅(jiān)持自己的夢(mèng)想的例子來(lái)說(shuō)明：一個(gè)人如果有夢(mèng)想并為夢(mèng)想而奮

斗，就不算老；只有當(dāng)我們不知道自己的追求讓遺憾成為生活的中心時(shí)，我們才可以被

視為老人。

5.B［respond回答；agree同意；identify確定；understand明白，理解。大衛(wèi)說(shuō)有皺

紋的人即為老人,但瑪麗認(rèn)為“somepeoplemaygainwrinklesatanearlyage”可知，

她并不贊成大衛(wèi)的說(shuō)法，故選B。］

6.C［negative消極的；boring令人厭煩的；tough艱苦的；complex復(fù)雜的。根據(jù)常識(shí)

可知，艱苦生活易使人有皺紋，故選C。］

7.C［certainty確定性；wish愿望；doubt懷疑；concern關(guān)心。莉莉說(shuō)60歲及以上的

人可謂老人，但艾米麗認(rèn)為"someoldpeoplemaystillbeenergeticandtryingtopursue

theirdreamsw,即她對(duì)莉莉的觀點(diǎn)也表示懷疑?？赏茢噙xC。］

8.B［attractive有吸引力的；young年輕的；intelligent聰明的；ambitious有抱負(fù)的。

結(jié)合語(yǔ)境可判斷，此空應(yīng)與"someoldpeople”相對(duì)應(yīng)，即老人ubeenergeticandtrying

topursuetheirdreams”使他們顯得年輕。故選B。］

9.A［reachconclusion為固定搭配，意為“得出結(jié)論”。根據(jù)“sotheteacherasked

ustothinkaboutitafterclass”可推斷出，同學(xué)們對(duì)老師的提問(wèn)未得出任何結(jié)論，故

選A。]

10.C[embarrassment尷尬；barrier障礙；question問(wèn)題；confusion混亂。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境

可知，此空應(yīng)指老師的提問(wèn)“whenamancouldbereferredtoasanoldman”，由此

判斷選C。]

11.B[preserve保存，維持；seek尋找；treasure珍視；possess擁有。根據(jù)下文對(duì)奶

奶故事的介紹以及“Soifwehaveourdreamsandseekforthem,wearen,told.”

可判斷選B。]

12.A[even甚至；nearly幾乎；only只有；hardly幾乎不。甚至當(dāng)奶奶70歲了，她還

在追求自己的夢(mèng)想。故選A。]

13.D[realize意識(shí)到；change改變；promote提升；keep保持。由上下文可知，奶奶想

當(dāng)畫(huà)家的夢(mèng)想從孩提時(shí)代到70歲的高齡一直沒(méi)有放棄過(guò)，即一直保持著這個(gè)夢(mèng)想，故選D。]

14.D[therefore因此；instead相反；moreover而且；however然而。盡管奶奶一直保

III.

語(yǔ)篇解讀本文主要講述了調(diào)查顯示大多數(shù)的樹(shù)種向西遷移。盡管科學(xué)家們不確定是什

么導(dǎo)致了這一變化，但一項(xiàng)研究認(rèn)為它與降雨有關(guān)。

25.areexpected［考查語(yǔ)態(tài)和主謂一致。本句中expect的賓語(yǔ)是treespecies,故本句

要用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。treespecies是復(fù)數(shù)名詞，故填areexpectedo］

26.a［考查冠詞。句意為：但最近的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示了……，用冠詞a泛指“一個(gè)"。］

27.stronger［考查比較級(jí)。根據(jù)than可知，要用比較級(jí)，故填stronger。］

28.surveyed［考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。treespecies與survey是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，所以要用過(guò)去分

詞surveyed作后置定語(yǔ)。］

29.since［考查連詞。本句中用了現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。連詞since(自從)+過(guò)去的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)，主

句用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。故填since。］

30.themselves［考查反身代詞。分析語(yǔ)境可知，樹(shù)木不會(huì)自己(themselves)連根拔起搬

到別處去，故填themselves。］

31.plants［考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。根據(jù)someoftheolder...可知，應(yīng)該是植物的復(fù)數(shù)plants。

故填plants。］

32.what［考查名詞性從句。sure后的賓語(yǔ)從句中缺少主語(yǔ)，用what。］

33.causing［考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意為：美國(guó)各地的降雨總量發(fā)生了變化，導(dǎo)致東南部等

地區(qū)每年的降水量顯著減少。要用動(dòng)詞的?ing形式作狀語(yǔ)表示自然而然的結(jié)果。故填

causingo］

34.increasingly［考查副詞。修飾形容詞watery,因此要用其副詞形式increasingly。］
