參考答案:

1.A2.C3.D

【導(dǎo)語】

這是一篇應(yīng)用文。主要介紹了幾款實(shí)用的應(yīng)用程序。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Duolingo中“Duolingooffersavarietyofinteractivecoursesinover30

languages,fromSpanishtoChinese.Theapppersonalizesyourlearningexperience,adjuststo

yourskilllevel,andprovidesexercisesacrossspeaking,listening,reading,andwriting.With

Duolingo,youcantrackyourprogress,setdailygoals,andjoinacommunityoflearners.Ifsideal

foranyonelookingtopickupanewlanguageorimprovetheirskills.^^（Duolingo提供從西班牙

語到漢語等30多種語言的互動課程。這款應(yīng)用可以個性化你的學(xué)習(xí)體驗(yàn)，根據(jù)你的技能水

平進(jìn)行調(diào)整，并提供說、聽、讀、寫方面的練習(xí)。使用Duolingo,你可以跟蹤你的進(jìn)度，設(shè)

定每日目標(biāo)，并加入學(xué)習(xí)者社區(qū)。對于任何想要學(xué)習(xí)一門新語言或提高技能的人來說，這是

理想的選擇。）可知，你可以用Duolingo通過多樣的練習(xí)來學(xué)習(xí)一門新語言。故選A項(xiàng)。

2.推理判斷題。根據(jù)Zedge中“Zedgeistheappyou'llwanttousetopersonalizeyourdevice's

ringtones,notifications,andalarmsounds.^^（Zedge是一款應(yīng)用程序，你可以用它來個性化你

的設(shè)備的鈴聲、通知和鬧鐘聲音。）以及“Youcansetacustom（定制的）ringtoneforeachperson

inyourcontactlist,soyoualwaysknowwho'scalling.^^（您可以為聯(lián)系人列表中的每個人設(shè)置

自定義鈴聲，這樣您就可以隨時(shí)知道誰在打電話。）可推知，尋求自定義設(shè)備聲音的用戶可

能對Zedge感興趣。故選C項(xiàng)。

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Remindee中“Everfindyourselfbrowsingthroughanapp,onlytosee

somethingyouneedtoremindyourselfoflater?Remindeeisasimpleappthatletsyoucreate

remindersfromanywherewithinyourdevice,nomatterwhatappyou5recurrentlybrowsing.（有

沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)自己在瀏覽一個應(yīng)用程序時(shí)，卻看到一些需要稍后提醒自己的東西？Remindee是

一款簡單的應(yīng)用程序，可以讓你在設(shè)備的任何地方創(chuàng)建提醒，無論你目前正在瀏覽什么應(yīng)用

程序。）可知，如果你想回顧一下你瀏覽過的內(nèi)容，Remindee這個應(yīng)用程序最適合你。故選

D項(xiàng)。

4.C5.B6.C7.A

【導(dǎo)語】

答案第1頁，共12頁

本文是一篇記敘文。主要講述了作者作為一名大學(xué)生找暑期工作頻頻受挫，但他沒有放棄，

最終找到了理想的暑期工作。

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的"Onetime,Ievencalledoneofthecompaniesmultipletimes,

butthemanageravoidedme.Iwasclosetogivingup.IfeltlikeIwastheonlyonestrugglinghard.

Ihadaprettygoodresume,andIalwaysdressednicelyformyinterviews,sowhycouldn'tIgeta

job?（有一次，我甚至多次給其中一家公司打電話，但經(jīng)理沒有見我。我?guī)缀跻艞壛?。?/p>

覺得只有我一個人在苦苦掙扎。我有一份很好的簡歷，面試時(shí)我總是穿著得體，所以為什么

我找不到工作呢？）”可知，作者想在第2段中表達(dá)他失業(yè)時(shí)的困惑。故選C。

5.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的"EvenifIwantedtoworkduringtheschoolyear,noneofthe

companieswantedtohiremebecauseofmylimitedweekdayavailability.Anddespitenot

knowingifIcouldjuggle（盡量兼顧）bothschoolandajob,Ievenstartedtotellinterviewersthat

Iwouldliketoworkduringtheschoolyearandgiveupmyweekends.ButIhadnoluck.（即使我

想在學(xué)年期間工作，也沒有一家公司愿意雇傭我，因?yàn)槲夜ぷ魅盏目捎眯杂邢蕖１M管我不知

道自己是否能兼顧學(xué)校和工作，但我甚至開始告訴面試官，我想在學(xué)年工作，放棄周末。但

我沒有運(yùn)氣。）”可知，臨時(shí)代理機(jī)構(gòu)不愿意接納作者是因?yàn)樗麄冋J(rèn)為他工作時(shí)間很緊。故選

Bo

6.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段中的"Despitebeingrejectedsomanytimes,Istillappliedforanyjob

thatIwasqualifiedfor.Ievenstartedmyjobsearchbeforethesemesterendedtogetahead.

Eventually,Igotmyidealsummerjob.（盡管被拒絕了很多次，我仍然申請了任何我有資格的

工作。我甚至在學(xué)期結(jié)束前就開始找工作，最終找到了理想的暑期工作。）”可知，只要一個

人愿意等待，事情必將會發(fā)生。故選C。

7.推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Butdon'tgiveup.Keepsearchingandapplying,signupfor

sitesthatsendyoujoboffersandlookontheuniversity'swebsiteforon-campusjobs.（但不要放

棄。繼續(xù)搜索和申請，注冊向你發(fā)送工作邀請的網(wǎng)站，并在大學(xué)網(wǎng)站上尋找校內(nèi)工作。戶可

知，作者寫最后一段的主要目的是提供建議。故選A。

8.B9.A10.D11.A

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了氣候變化導(dǎo)致越來越多的地區(qū)變成沙漠。這一問題正

在影響2.5億人的生活，因?yàn)檫^去適合耕種的土地變得干旱和貧瘠。摩洛哥的一家公司可以

在五年內(nèi)將一片沙漠變成一個可持續(xù)的、有利可圖的種植園。

答案第2頁，共12頁

8.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段"Climatechangeiscausingmoreareastoturnintodeserts.Thisissue

isaffectingthelivesof250millionpeopleaslandthatusedtobegoodforfarmingbecomesdry

andunproductive.Aroundone-thirdoftheworld'slandisimpacted,includingregionsinAfrica,

southernEurope,AsiaandAmerica.”（氣候變化導(dǎo)致越來越多的地區(qū)變成沙漠。這一問題正在

影響2.5億人的生活，因?yàn)檫^去適合耕種的土地變得干旱和貧瘠。全球約三分之一的土地受

到影響，包括非洲、南歐、亞洲和美洲地區(qū)。）可知，作者在第一段描述了沙漠化的現(xiàn)象。

故選B項(xiàng)。

9.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中"Thesolutionisusingagrofbrestry（農(nóng)林業(yè)）tocreateanewkindof

agriculturethatissustainableandthatcanberesilient（有適應(yīng)力的）infrontofclimatechange.”

（解決方案是利用農(nóng)林業(yè)來創(chuàng)造一種可持續(xù)的新型農(nóng)業(yè)，這種農(nóng)業(yè)可以在氣候變化面前具有

彈性。）以及第三段中“ThesoilisregeneratedusingwhatSandtoGreencalls“greenmanure”,a

mixturethatincludescompost,biochar（生物炭）andmicroorganismsthathelpthesoil"wake

（土壤的再生使用“從沙到綠”所謂的“綠肥”，這是一種混合物，包括堆肥、生物炭和微生物，

可以幫助土壤“蘇醒”。）可知，沙改綠采用農(nóng)林業(yè)是因?yàn)榭梢员３肿魑锏拇婊盥?。故選A項(xiàng)。

10.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中“Amongtheintercroppingherbs（草本植物）thathavebeen

successfullytrialedarerosemary,geranium,vetiverandcitronella,whichBenMoussadescribesas

“verylow-maintenanceandveryhigh-profit"."（在已成功試驗(yàn)的間作草藥中，有迷迭香、天竺

葵、香根草和香茅，本?穆薩稱這些草藥“維護(hù)成本低，利潤高”。）可推知，從沙到綠，我們

能了解到它產(chǎn)生了良好的效果。故選D項(xiàng)。

11.詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第五段中“Itsaysasiteofthatsizewouldcostaround$475,000tosetup

andwouldstartbringingfinancialreturnsinaboutfiveyears.”（該公司表示，這種規(guī)模的網(wǎng)站將

花費(fèi)約47.5萬美元來建立，并將在大約五年內(nèi)開始帶來經(jīng)濟(jì)回報(bào)。）由此可知，此處為“從

沙到綠”目前正在努力擴(kuò)大到20公頃的商業(yè)用地。故可猜測劃線短語scaleup為“擴(kuò)大，的意

思，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)A項(xiàng)Expand“擴(kuò)大”意思一致。故選A項(xiàng)。

12.C13.B14.D15.B

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了一項(xiàng)新的研究表明，一種名為赤辭糖醇的糖替代品與

血液凝固、中風(fēng)、心臟病發(fā)作和死亡有關(guān)。

12.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“"Thedegreeofriskwasnotmodest,"saidleadstudyauthorDr.
