amatMinistrySaintJoseph'sHospitalinMarshfieldbecauseshewasabletopursueherfour-yeardegreeclosetohome.Shecoulddrivetoclassandbehomeintheeveningtohel
pwithherkids.”,由此可知,主人公是为了照顾孩子们,才选择MinistrySaintJoseph'sHospital,故选A。3.细节理解题。第四段第二句“Jennifersacrificed(牺牲)toachievehergoal,givingupmanynightsw
ithherkidsandmissingimportanteventstostudy.”,可知,主人公为了学业,不能陪伴孩子,故选B。4.推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句“However,herchildrenhavelearnedanimportantlessonwitnessingthe
irmotherearnherdegree.Jenniferisafirst-generationgraduateandaninspirationtoherfamily—andthat'sprettypowerful.”可知,主人公的努力获得了回报,并且结合

8DABC【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述女孩Sacagawea帮助探险队成功探险的故事。5.细节理解题。根据第三段SacagaweaalsojoinedasaninterpretertotalktoNative-Americanpeopleontheir8,000-milej
ourney.可知,探险家雇佣Sacagawea目的是帮助他们和当地印第安人交流。故选D。6.词义猜测题。根据划线单词后半句whentheyreachedthePacificOceaninNovember1805,Sacagaweawasaskedtocasth
ervoteforwheretheyshouldbuildafort.当他们在1805年11月到达太平洋时,Sacagawea被要求投票决定他们应该在哪里建造营地。可推知,Sacagawea受到Lewis和Clark的尊
敬,他们才会要求Sacagawea决定在哪里露营;由此可知,划线单词“esteemed”的意思是repected“尊敬”之意,故选A。7.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段描述Sacagaweaprovedherselfagainafterthegrouptookad
ifferentroutehomethroughwhatisnowIdaho.…andhelpedtheexpeditionfindtheirwaythrough.Clarkevenpraisedherashis“pilot”.Sacagawea再次证明了自己的能力,她的团队选择了一条不同
的路线,穿过现在的爱达荷州回家。当他们经过她的家乡时,Sacagawea想起了她童年时在Shoshone部落留下的足迹,并帮助探险队找到了道路。Clark甚至称赞她是他的“领航员”。可知,Sacagawea在探险活动的地位是无可替代的。故选B。8.主旨大意题。本文讲述女孩Sacagaw
ea帮助探险队成功探险的故事,由此可知,Anoutstandinggirl.一个杰出的女孩。切题。故选C。(二)AfellowspeakerfromCalifornianamedGeriflewtoJapan,inherfavoritejeansan

w.【答案】9.D10.A11.C12.C【解析】这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了一个叫格瑞的美国人来到日本,因为不了解日本的礼仪文化而做的一些不合时宜的事。9.推理判断题。根据第四段的“ThesecondmistakewasGe
ri'shandlingoftheirbusinesscardsrudely.”可知,第二个错误是格瑞粗鲁地处理他们的名片,由此可推断,在四位日本绅士的眼里,格瑞十分不恭敬地接过了他们的名片。故选D。10.
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Then,thefourthhorrorofhorrorswasthatGerishouldnothaveopenedthegiftinfrontofherclients.Inalandwheresavingfaceiscritical,itwouldbeembarras
singtodiscoverthegifttheygavewasnotasniceastheonetheyreceived.Whatisworse,Gerihadn’tevengiventhemagift!”可知,然后,第四个可怕的事情是,格瑞不应该在她的客户面前打开礼物。在一个
面子至关重要的国家,如果发现他们送的礼物没有收到的那么好,那就很尴尬了。更糟糕的是,格瑞甚至没有给他们礼物!由此判断出,这些男士认为格瑞的做法极为不礼貌,已经无法忍受,所以离开了,故选A。11.词义猜测
题。根据第三段最后的“Whatdidshedowrong?”(她哪里做的不对)以及第四段“Thesecondmistake”(第二个错误)可知,划线词的意思是“错误”,指的是她的牛仔裤是第一个错误。故选C。12.推理判断题。通读全文可知,本文主要讲述了一个叫格瑞的美国人来到日本,因为
不了解日本的礼仪文化而做的一些不合时宜的事。由此判断出,我们从故事中学到要入乡随俗。故选C。(三)Formostpeople,graduationisanexcitingdaythecelebrationofye

(长久的)feast.C.Asmoothseanevermakesaskillfulmariner.D.Misfortunestelluswhatfortuneis.【答案】13.B14.C15.B16.A【解析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要介绍了作者在毕业后经历了失败和恐惧
,然后依靠坚持写作走出困境的励志文章。13.推理判断题。根据文章第二段第四、五句“WhatIthoughtwouldtakeaweekdraggedintotwo,andthenfour,and100jobapplicationslater,Ifoundmyselfintheexac
tsamespotasIwasbefore.Andtheduedatetobeginpayingbackmystudentloanswascreepingevercloser.”可知,作者在毕业后难以找到工作,而学生贷款还款期限日益逼近,作者无力偿还,由此可知作者陷入
经济困难。故选B项。14.细节理解题。根据文章第四段第一、二句“SowhatdidIdotomaintainmysanity(理智)?Iwrote.”以及第六句“SoIchanneledmyfrustrationintoachildren'
sbook.”可知,作者通过坚持写作来改变自己的令人沮丧的处境。故选C项。15.猜测词义题。根据文章最后一段第一、二句“Themoralofthisstoryis…don'tgiveup.Evenifthingslookbleaknow,
don'tgiveup.”可知,能够导致你对一件事情的放弃,这件事可能是无望的或者是糟糕的,所以能够替换bleak的词是hopeless。故选B项。16.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Themoralof
thisstoryis...don'tgiveup.Evenifthingslookbleaknow,don'tgiveup.ThingschangeIfyouworkhard,giveittime,anddon'tgiveup,thingswi
llalwaysgetbetterOftentimesallweneedisthecouragetopushbeyondtheriver.”可知,本文主要谈论的是成功属于坚忍不拔的人。故选A项。(四)Igrewupwithafour-yeargap(差距)betweenmys

yLittleBrotherHelpedMeLearnD.TheGreatQualitiesofMyLittleBrother【答案】17.C18.B19.A20.C【解析】本文是议论文,作者作为一个姐姐,从弟弟那学习到了很多。17.推理判断
题。根据第一段“HavingayoungerbrotherwhileIwasagirlwasalotofworkfortherewasalotoffighting.”当我还是个小女孩的时候,有个弟弟对我来说是件很辛苦的
事,因为经常会吵架。第二段进行了转折“However,aswe'vegotolder,we'vebecomecloser,andI'velearnedseveralthingsinlifefrommyyoungerbrotherthatIdidn't
realizeIneededbefore.”然而,随着我们年龄的增长,我们的关系越来越亲密,我从弟弟身上学到了很多以前我不知道自己需要的东西。所以作者作为一个姐姐,觉得麻烦但是鼓舞人心。故选C项。18.推理判断题。根据第三段“He'shelpedremindmethroughhisactionsa
ndwordsthatgivinguponcreativityissomethingapersonshouldneverdo.”他用行动和言语提醒我,放弃创造力是一个人永远都不应该做的事。所以弟弟给姐姐的建议是永远不要停止创造。故选B项。19.推理判断题。根
据第四段“Myyoungerbrotherhasalwaysbeenamoreintrovertedtype,andifyouspeaktohim,you'reluckytogetoverthreewordsoutofhimatatime.”我弟弟一
直比较内向,如果你跟他说话,能一次说出三个字就很幸运了。可知introvertedpeople指的是很内向安静的人,故选A项。20.主旨大意题。根据第二段“andI'velearnedseveralthingsinlifefr
ommyyoungerbrotherthatIdidn'trealizeIneededbefore.”在生活中,我从弟弟那里学到了很多以前我不知道自己需要的东西。作者在此展开叙述,讲述弟弟的优点对自己的影响,所
以本文的主旨是我从弟弟那里学到的课程。故选C项。(五)Lastyear,myoldestsonMatthewwentofftocollege.Thingsathomewerenotas“busy”astheyusedtobe.Westill

B23.C24.A【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和妻子在大儿子上大学后收养了一只斗牛犬,他们过着充满爱的生活。21.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Lastyear,myoldestsonMatthewwentofftoc
ollege.Thingsathomewerenotas“busy”astheyusedtobe.Westillhadour15-year-oldsonGabrielwithus,butwemissedhavingMatthew
around.”以及文章第二段“Mywifesoonhadacrazyidea.“Let’sgetadog.”shesuggested.”可推知,去年大儿子上大学后,由于生活没有那么忙碌,也很思念自己的孩子,所以作者的妻子才想要养一条狗。故选D项。22.词义猜测题。根据文章第二段“M
ywifesoonhadacrazyidea.“Let’sgetadog.”shesuggested.以及“butIagreed”可知,but表示转折,即:虽然我对这个想法并不太满意(兴奋),但还是同意了,所以画线词thrill
ed意为“兴奋,高兴”。故选B项。23.细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Heisalwaystheretogreetuswhenwecomehomewithahugesmile.He’sshownusmorelovethananyotherliving
creatureonEartheverhadbefore.可知,作者夫妇与收养的斗牛犬过着充满爱的生活。故选C项。24.推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,本文主要讲述了作者和妻子收养了一只斗牛犬,他们过着充满爱的生活,其目的就是分享关于收养宠物的温暖的故事。故选A项。
