案选C项。2.B推理判断题。从文章第四段中的“...exposingoneplasticsampletodeadbacteriaasacontrol”可推断,他这样做的目的在于测试他的方法是否有效,所

以答案为B项。3.B细节理解题。从文章倒数第二段中的“maintainingtherequiredtemperaturetakeslittleenergybecausemicrobesproduceheatastheywork”可知答案选B项。4.C推理判断题。从文章最后一段丹尼尔·伯德说的话可

推知,他是从每天的工作中得到启发的,故答案选C项。(二)本篇文章为记叙文。主要讲述印度一个小村庄的人们在外乡人的诱导下为了追求金钱收益捕杀青蛙,结果破坏了生态平衡。意识到这个问题后,他们及时停止了捕杀,重新回到了宁静的乡村生活。1.C细节理解题。第一段中有“Thepeoplew

erepoor.However,theywerenotunhappy.”和C项意思一致。2.A细节理解题。根据第二段的“Thisseemedlikemoneyfornothing.”句中fornothing是“免费的”意思,说明青蛙容易得到,并能赚到钱,村民才答应

卖。3.B推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Theyhadbeendoinganimportantjob—eatinginsects.Nowwithsomanyfrogskilled,theinsectswereincreasingmorerapidly.Theyweredamagi

ngthecropsandspreadingdiseases.”可以推断出庄稼收成不好,孩子生病与青蛙减少、害虫增多有关。4.C推理判断题。最后一句说明人们过度捕杀造成生态失衡,由此也影响了人类,因此,可以推断人与自然的和

谐是重要的。(三)世界的可用淡水资源有限,但农业在利用水资源过程中存在不尽如人意之处,本文指出了其中的一些问题。1.C细节理解题,由文中第一段第二句“With97%oftheworld'swatertoosaltytobedrunkorused

inagriculture...”可知A选项错误;由第一段第三句“...strangetosomeonefortunateenoughtoliveinahighrainfallcountry...”可知B选项不合文意;第二段前两句指出水资源的重新分配的费用极高,一方面是水

利过程本身的造价,另一方面也会对生态造成极大的破坏,所以选项C正确,根据第二段第四句“...itcannotbetransportedfromonesideoftheworldtotheother.”可知D项不正确

。2.C细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句“...hasresultedina25%reductionofthewaterstores.”可判断A选项不正确;由第一段最后一句可判断B选项错误;由文章最后一句“...fiftyyearsofpumping

willseethemrundry.”可知C项正确。根据文章第三段最后一句可知D项不正确。3.A判断推理题。文章前面一部分主要是讲述农业在利用水资源过程中存在的问题,接下来应该是介绍加强水资源管理的方法和措施,所以A选项正确。4.B主旨大意题。由第一段第

二句可知。二、人物传记类(一)1.A细节理解题。根据第一段的“WhatHenryForddidwastouseotherpeople'sideasandmakethembetter”.可知,A项符合题意。2.B细节理解题。根据第二段的“Intheearlydaysoftheautom

obile,almosteverycarmakerracedhiscars.Itwasthebestwayofgainingpublicnotice.HenryForddecidedtobuildaracingcar.Ford'smos

tfamousracewashisfirstone.”可知,B项符合题意。3.C词义猜测题。由第四段画线单词前的一句“In1903,adoctorinDetroitboughtthefirstcarfromthecompany.”以及画线单词所在的一句可知,C项符合题

意。4.A推理判断题。根据第四段的ThatsalewasthebeginningofHenryFord'sdream.Fordsaid:“Iwillbuildamotorcarforthegreatmas

sofpeople...makinggoodmoneywillbeunabletoownone.”可知,A项符合题意。(二)1.D细节理解题。由短文第一段中的“...shewenttoworkasaneditorin

thelasttwodecadesofherlife,sherevealedherselfasshedidnowhereelse”可推出她在自己的编辑事业中获益很大。故选D项。112.C细节理解题。根据画线句后面的“然而,很少有人知道她取得了这么多成就”可知,画

线句的含义是:她作为第一夫人的角色最终在她作为编辑的出色表现前黯然失色。故选C项。3.C推理判断题。由最后一段倒数第三句“Herbooksaretheautobiographysheneverwrote.”即她编

辑的书籍就是她从来没有写过的自传。由此可知,她的观点和信仰都反映在她所编辑的书籍中。故选C项。4.C主旨大意题。由短文第一段中“...asaneditorinthelasttwodecadesofherlife...”以及整篇文章

的叙述可知,本文主要介绍Jacqueline生命中最后20年的编辑生涯。故选C项。(三)1.B细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Miller'sfatherhadmovedtotheUSAfromAustria??Hungary,drawnlikesom

anyothersbythe‘GreatAmericanDream’”可知,他父亲移居美国像其他许多人一样是受当年伟大的美国梦吸引。2.A推理判断题。根据第二段可知,这部戏剧对美国制度是一个抨击,它表现了咄咄逼人的做生意的方式以及坚

信金钱和社会地位才是财富的象征。主人公Willy陷入困境,然而生意场上残酷无情:如果他做不了,那么对老板而言,他就一无是处,他必须离开。故此部戏剧揭露了美国职场的残酷。3.C推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句“Willyispainfullyawareofthis,

andatalossastowhattodowithhislackofsuccess.HerefusestofacethefactthathehasfailedandkillshimselfintheenD.”可知主人公面对失败无所适从,无法面对现实

,从而走向毁灭,成了美国资本主义制度下美国梦的牺牲者。故选C项。4.A细节理解题。根据第三段可知,这部戏剧自1949第一次搬上银幕就获得了“托尼戏剧音乐奖”、“纽约戏剧评论奖”、“普利策戏剧奖”三项大奖

,获得极大的成功。因此A项正确。5.D主旨大意题。纵观全文不难看出本文主要介绍ArthurMiller以及他的戏剧DeathofaSalesman《推销员之死》。其他选项都不全面,只是文中叙述的一部分。故D项正确。三、社会文化类(一)
