1、Accordingtothesecondparagraph,FlemingacceptedthejobofferedbyKemsley

Newspapers.

A、andhadtogiveuphisyearlyholidayplantoJamaica

becausehewasofferedtoworkinJamaicaeverywinter

C、sothathewouldn'thavetolookforemploymentelsewhere

D、onconditionthathelookwinterofftoJamaicaeveryyear

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第2段最后一句破折號(hào)后的內(nèi)容是Fleming接受KemsleyNewspapers

的匚作的條件，破折號(hào)后的內(nèi)容就是這個(gè)條件，D中的onconditionthat也表示基

于某種條件去做一件事，D是對(duì)破折號(hào)后的內(nèi)容的近義改寫，因此為本題答案。

2、Whenhebeganwriting,Flemingneverexpectedthat.

A、hewouldchangepopularculture

B、hecouldgetoverthepressure

C、Annewouldhaveadivorce

D、Annewouldkeephischild

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：本題實(shí)際上要求選擇在Fleming開始寫作后發(fā)生的事，而且這件事必

須是他開始寫作前沒(méi)有考慮到的。第3段第1句末尾的定語(yǔ)從句中的時(shí)態(tài)would表

明定于從句的內(nèi)容是發(fā)生在Fleming開始寫作之后，而且他從沒(méi)想過(guò)自己的寫作生

涯會(huì)造成那么大的影響，由此可見(jiàn)，本題應(yīng)選A。

3、Fleming'sthrillersreflectedhis.

A、senseforpopularcuhure

B>relationshipwithAnne

C、ownpersonalities

D^lifeatJamaica

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題干中的thrillers定位到第4段第1句。該句中的elite

existence,arrogance,style,acidwit等都是與個(gè)性特點(diǎn)有關(guān)的內(nèi)容，表明Fleming

在他的小說(shuō)中融進(jìn)了自己獨(dú)特的個(gè)性特點(diǎn)，因此本題應(yīng)選C。B和D都是Fleming

的經(jīng)歷，但與eliteexistence,arrogance,style,acidwit等“個(gè)性”特點(diǎn)關(guān)系不夠緊

密，因此不能選。

4、WhatdidFlemingprobablydieof?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Hearttrouble/disease.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第7段首句和最后一段首句都提到了hearl一詞，而最后一段首句中

的hisweakeningheart表明Fleming的心臟正一步步地衰弱，由此可見(jiàn)，F(xiàn)leming最

終可能死于心臟病，故答案為hearttrouble或heartdisease。

5、Smileywasmostprobably.

A、aspeculator

B、agambler

C、anadventurer

D、aninvestor

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第1段最后兩句中的makemoneyonanything和第2段中的winner,

winmoneyonit等都表明Slimey喜歡賭博，因此本題應(yīng)選B。本題最具干擾性的是

A,speculator(投機(jī)者)也是貶義詞，但投機(jī)者通常以為有機(jī)可乘，而Slimey并不看

是否有贏的可能，他看到什么就賭什么，所以他并不能算是一個(gè)speculalor.

6、Saying"itdidnotmattertohim,"'(Line1,Para.3)theauthorthinksthatSmileydidn't

mind.

A、howotherpeoplelookedathim

B、whetherhecouldwinmoneyornot

C^puttingmoneyonminorthings

D、makingmoneyonunfortunateoccasions

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：題干引號(hào)句子中的it針對(duì)的是第3段第1句的內(nèi)容，而it前的why

并不是真的要問(wèn)“為什么”，是一個(gè)用作連詞的感嘆詞?？梢员硎倔@訝、懷疑、異議

等情感，由此可見(jiàn)，考點(diǎn)的句子表明Smiley對(duì)別人怎么評(píng)價(jià)他并不在意，因此本

題應(yīng)選Ao

7、WhathappenedtoParsonWalker'swifeismentionedtoshowthatSmileywas

A^thoughtless

B、greedy

C、unique

D^funny

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第3段第4句在提到Smiley很“不同尋常”之后，作者寫了他如何對(duì)

待Mrs.Parson的例子，很顯然，這個(gè)例子是為了說(shuō)明Smiley”與眾不同”，因此,

本題應(yīng)選C。

8、WhatwastheresultofthefightbetweenSmiley'sdogandthedogwithoutbacklegs?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Smiley'sdoglostanddied.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：最后兩段帶述了這兩只狗打的那場(chǎng)架，結(jié)果就是Smiley的狗輸了，

最后死了。

9、Consideringherself"agoodworker",MotherRigbvwasconfidentin

A、herstrangepowers

B、hertalentsforhandicraft

C、anythingshemade

D、herselectionofmaterials

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第5段第4句提到IMotherRigby認(rèn)為自己是一個(gè)goodworker,隨后

的兩句話是對(duì)goodworker的解釋，這些句子表明MotherRigby自認(rèn)為有一手好手

藝，可以為Feathertop弄出一身合適的衣服，表明她對(duì)自己的手藝有信心，因比，

本題應(yīng)選B。

10、MotherRigbygaveFeathertopherpipesothat.

A^Feathertopwouldkeepalive

B>Feathertopwouldbemanlier

C^Feathertopwouldlivethesamelifeasshe

D^Feathertopwouldberelatedtoherforever

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：該段第4句Itisyourlife表明MotherRigby將煙斗當(dāng)作Feathertop的

生命之源，因此本題應(yīng)選A。其他選項(xiàng)根本沒(méi)有原文依據(jù)。

11、AccordingtoMotherRigby,Feathertop"stillwillbesayingnothing"because

A^hewasnotcleverenoughtolearnanything

B>hewasonlymadetohavebirds,intelligence

C>hedidnothaveabraintorememberanything

D^hecouldlearnnothingworthwhileintheworld

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題干中引號(hào)里的內(nèi)容定位到最后一段第4句。該句表明

Feathertop在進(jìn)入外面的世界后，即使學(xué)會(huì)講很多句子，但說(shuō)了還是等于沒(méi)說(shuō)，由

此可以推斷MotherRigby認(rèn)為Feathertop從外面學(xué)到的東西都是無(wú)意義的，即

Feathertop根本不能從中學(xué)到東西，由底可見(jiàn)，D是正確的推斷。

12、WhatdidMotherRigbydecidetomakeafterbreakfast?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Ascarecrow.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第2段雖然并沒(méi)有明確說(shuō)明MotherRigby要做的東西叫什么名字，

但從第5段第4句提到的scarecrow可以知道MotherRigby一開始想要做的就是

scarecrow,因此本題答案就是Ascarecrow?；卮鸨绢}時(shí)，不能籠統(tǒng)地照搬第2段

提到的somethingthatwouldlooklikeaman,因?yàn)檫@不足以說(shuō)明MotherRigby要做

的是什么。后面的句子倒是解釋了這個(gè)東西的功能，但表述太長(zhǎng)，不可能用作答

案。

13、Jerushathoughtthatshecouldn'tbeveryrespectfulto'JohnSmith"because.

A、hewasatotalstrangertoher

B、shewassureitwasafakeidentity

C、thenamewasnotdistinctiveenough

D、nobodywouldliketobecalledthatname

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第5段第2句中的pickout表明Jerusha認(rèn)為JohnSmith這個(gè)名字是

收信人自己隨便挑的，也就是說(shuō)，她認(rèn)為這個(gè)名字是假的，因此本題應(yīng)選B。在第

5段中，關(guān)鍵詞是pickout,Jerusha最介意的是對(duì)方隨便選一個(gè)名字敷衍她，至于

和對(duì)方有多熟悉，對(duì)方的名字有沒(méi)有個(gè)性，都不是造成Jerusha難以尊重對(duì)方的原

因。

14>Thefactthatherday"isdividedintosectionsbybells1'makesJerushafeel.

A^asbusyasafirehorse

B、restrictedbyrules

C、pressedfortime

D、fullofvitality

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：倒數(shù)第2段第4句中的Itsveryenlivening表明Jerusha認(rèn)為聽著鈴聲

來(lái)安排生活使她覺(jué)得“充滿活力”，由此可見(jiàn)，本題應(yīng)選D。

15、JerushadecidedtocallthetrusteeDearDaddy-Long-Legs.

A、inordertoshowherrespectforhim

B、becauseitwasoneofhisinternalqualities

C、inordertomakethemfeelclosertoeachother

D、becauseshehadalwayswantedafather

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第7段最后一句中的petname表明Jerusha認(rèn)為DearDaddy-Long-

Legs這個(gè)名字表示一種“愛(ài)”，“愛(ài)稱”只有關(guān)系親密的人之間使用，由此可見(jiàn)，

Jerusha使用這個(gè)稱呼是為了拉近距離，因此，本題應(yīng)選C。

16、Whatdoes"muddled"(Para.2)mostprobablymeaninthecontext?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Confused./Baffled./Bewildered./Puzzled.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第2段第1句開頭的bewildering,gellost表明作者一出門就迷路，

于是第2句作者說(shuō)在她lessmuddled時(shí)，，再好好描述一下學(xué)校。兩句的內(nèi)容對(duì)比之

下，可以推斷出muddle和bewilder同義，可以用bewildered作為本題答案，也可

以用其它近義詞,如confused,baffled,puzzled等。

1、WhatisTRUEabouttheZikavirus?

A^Itisinfectiousandfatal.

B、Itdamagesbrainsofbothpregnantwomenandtheirbabies.

C>Ithasnotreatment.

D^Noneoftheabove.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：推斷題。選項(xiàng)A錯(cuò)在后半部分，從文中可以看出Zika病毒雖然是蚊

媒傳染病，但并不致命。選項(xiàng)B錯(cuò)在混淆了文中對(duì)孕婦的警告是說(shuō)病毒可能對(duì)胎

兒的大腦發(fā)育造成影響，并未提及對(duì)孕婦本身也會(huì)有同樣影響。選項(xiàng)C正確，文

中小標(biāo)題及其下面第一段明確點(diǎn)出沒(méi)有有效的治療方案，只能靜養(yǎng)。

2、WhichofthefollowingmethodsCANNOTpreventbeinginfectedbytheZikavirus?

A、Avoidinggoingtomosquito-infestedregions.

B、Puttingoninsectrepellent.

C^Gettingvaccinated.

D>Stayinginsideair-conditioncdrooms.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。文章最后一個(gè)小標(biāo)題是問(wèn)句，問(wèn)“是否有疫苗”，直接定位到

這一部分，文中提到目前才剛剛開始研制疫苗，所以要預(yù)防感染Zika病毒，不可

能選擇注射疫苗。因此答案選C。

3、Whatisthemainideaofthispassage?

A、TheZikavirusisanewlydiscoveredvirusbyscientists.

B、PregnantwomentravelingtotropicalareasarewarnedabouttherisksoftheZika

virus.

C、TheZikavirusisinfectiousthroughbirth.

D、TreatmentsfortheZikavirusarenotavailableincertaincountries.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：主旨題。本文主要是介紹Zika病毒對(duì)胎兒可能造成的影響，建議孕

婦不要去有被傳染風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的熱帶地區(qū)。選項(xiàng)A不正確，Zika并非新發(fā)現(xiàn)的病毒。選

項(xiàng)C也不正確，它的主要傳染方式是通過(guò)蚊子叮咬。詵項(xiàng)D文中沒(méi)有提及。
