救了五条已经干涸了几十年的河流被认为是印度拉贾斯坦邦的英雄。4.A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“SowhenhemovedtoRajasthan'sAlwardistrictin1985,hewasinterestedincuringnotjusthispeopl

e,butalsotheregion'secosystem.”可知，当他1985年搬到拉贾斯坦邦的阿尔瓦地区时，他不仅对他的人民，而且对该地区的生态系统都很感兴趣，由此可知，搬到阿尔瓦地区后，他开始关注那里的生态系统，故A项正确。5.A推理

判断题。根据第三段中的“SinghnoticedthatmostvillagershadlefttheirhomesafterthelocalArvariRiverhaddriedup”可知，辛格注意到，当地的阿尔瓦

里河干涸后，大多数村民都离开了家园，由此可知，大多数村民离开家乡的原因是那里的居住环境不好，故A项正确。6.B推理判断题。根据第三段中的“astrongdesiretohelpthevillagers”帮助村民的强烈愿望。及最后一段中的“hehelpsthousandsofpeoplesol

veproblemsofwatershortage”他帮助成千上万的人解决缺水问题。由此判断出，辛格是乐于助人的；再根据第四段中的“Fortwoyears,Singhworkedtirelessly,buildingjohads(rainwaterstoragetanksbui

ltwithstone,dirt,orwhatevermaterialsareavailable)andcheckingdamsthatdidn'tresultinmuchsuccess.Localelderslaughedathim,buth

econtinuedworkingwithenthusiasm.”辛格不知疲倦地工作了两年，用石头、泥土或任何可用的材料建造雨水储存池，并检查水坝，但没有取得多大成功。当地的长者嘲笑他，但他继续热情地工作。由此判断出，辛格在保护当地生态系统的道路上的意志很坚定，故B项正确。7.C细节理解题。

根据最后一段中的“Singhrunsanon-profitorganizationcalledTarunBharatSangh(TBS),throughwhichhehelpsthousandsofpeoplesolveproblemsofwatershortage.”可知，通过TBS这个非

营利性组织，辛格帮助成千上万人解决了缺水问题，由此可知，TBS使许多印度村民更容易获得水了，故C项正确。Passage2Onemorningmorethanthirtyyearsago,IenteredtheTrackKitchen,arestaurantwhereeveryone

icedamemptychairnexttoanelderly,unshavenman以及Hewaswearingaworn-outhat可以得出，这个老人没有刮胡子，帽子破旧，所以根据上下文的语境判断出，划线词的意思是“不整洁的”。故选B。5.C细节理解题。根据第二段Iwasconcernedt

hathemighthavenomoneyandnotbeabletoaffordsomethingtoeat.可知，作者担心老人没钱支付早餐。所以者给这位老人买咖啡，因为他认为这位老人很穷。故选A。6.A推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Icouldha

rdlybelieveit.可知，我简直不敢相信。由此判断出作者感到很惊讶，故选C。7.D主旨大意题。通读全文尤其可知，作者在餐厅与一个看似穷酸的人就餐期间的对话的经历。再根据最后一段NowItrytotrea

teveryonewithrespect,nomatterwhoIthinktheyare.可知，现在我试着尊重每一个人，不管我认为他们是谁。由此可知故事中主要表达了我们不要以貌取人。故选D。Passag

的旅行经历，作者的心态从盼望快速到达目的地转变为关注旅途中的快乐。4.C细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Butluckilyforme,ViaRailCanadaofferedyouthsbetweentheagesof18and25thechancetoridethetrainacross

CanadaforthemonthofJulyin2017.Ijumpedattheopportunityandsecuredaninexpensiveticket.”可知，对作者来说幸运的是，ViaRailCanada公司为18至25岁之间的

年轻人提供了在2017年7月乘火车穿越加拿大的机会。作者抓住这个机会并获得了一张便宜的火车票。因此ViaRailCanada公司为青少年提供的限时的火车票使作者的火车之旅成为了可能。故选C。5.D细节理解题。根据

第二段中的“Afterjustanhouronthetrain,desperationalreadycameonme.Thethoughtofthreefulldaysonthosetracksbrokemyspirits.”可

知，在火车上仅一个小时之后，作者就已经感到绝望了。一想到要在火车上呆整整三天让作者很沮丧。即作者在火车上呆了一个小时后，其旅行热情开始下降。故选D。6.B推理判断题。根据第二段中的“AsIgazedouttowa

rdsLakeSuperior’sglisteningwaves,IdecidedifIwastobestuckinhere,Iwouldneedtoenjoymytime.”和第三段中的“Those

threedaysturnedintoasummercamponrails.Realfriendshipswiththecrewwerebornwithinthattrain.”可知，当作者凝视苏必利尔湖畔闪闪发光的海浪时，作者决定如果要呆在这里，我需要享受我的时间。那三天变成了

铁轨上的夏令营。与乘务员的真正友谊源于那列火车。由此可知，作者想办法度过在火车上的时间，使自己充满快乐。因此“适应性强”最能恰当地描述作者。故选B。7.D细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“I’velearnedthatthejourneycanbem

oreenjoyablethanthedestination.”可知，作者明白了关注旅途中的快乐比盼望到达目的地更有趣。即作者明白了要在旅行中去探索更多的快乐。故选D。Passage4Everybodymayhavethatoneneighbor,whoju

anembarrassed.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。一位老人总是看着窗外，生气地看着每一个人和每件路过的东西。但他却有一颗金子般的心，暗地里做了很多好事。4.D推理判断题。根据第一段中Everybodymayhavetha

toneneighbor,whojustlooksoutofthewindow,lookingangryateveryoneandeverythingthatcrossesthepath.可知，每个人都可能有这样一个邻居，他只

是看着窗外，生气地看着每一个人和每一件穿过小路的东西。由此可知，这位老人只是看着窗外，生气地看着每一个人和每一件东西，因此给邻居们留下不友好的印象。故选D。5.A推理判断题。根据第二段中Whenhesawoneneighborsh

outingangrilyathersonafterhebrokehercoffeemaker,thisill-temperedoldmanwentandboughtheranewone.(当他看到一个邻居因为儿子打破了

她的咖啡壶而生气地对她大喊大叫时，这个脾气暴躁的老人就去给她买了一个新的)和第三段的第一句Buthedidn’twanthertoknowso,insteadhemadeitlooklikehewas

justthrowingitaway.(但他不想让她知道，相反，他让她觉得他只是把它扔了)可知，老人假装扔掉他的咖啡壶，是为了帮助这对母子。因为儿子打碎了咖啡壶，母亲冲他大喊大叫。故选A。6.B细节理解题。根据第三段的第二句Andthatonesecretgooddeedwasjus

tthetipoftheiceberg.可知，那件秘密的好事只是冰山一角。由此可知，这位老人偷偷地做了很多好事。故选B。7.C推理判断题。根据第三段的最后两句Butaboynextdoorknewthisill-temperedneighbor’ssecrets.Hecarefully

drewapictureoftheoldmandressedasSantaandputitonthewall.可知，但是隔壁的一个男孩知道这个坏脾气的邻居的秘密。他小心翼翼地画了一幅老人装扮成圣诞老人的画像，并把它挂在了墙上。由此可知，圣诞老人是秘密做好事的，画这幅画是为了表示

老人的善良。故选C。Passage5Sincetheageofthree,ChelsieHillhaddreamedofbecomingadancer.Thatambitionnearlyendedin2010whenHillwasinacarac

inacaraccident,whichputthe17-year-oldhighschoolseniorinhospitalfor51daysandleftherparalyzedfromthewaistdown.”可知，2010年，

希尔遭遇了一场（严重的）车祸，住了51天院，腰部以下瘫痪，故D项正确。25.A推理判断题。根据第一段中的““IwanttoprovetoeveryoneincludingmyselfthatI'mstillnormal,”shesaid,“whatevernormalm

eans.””可知，希尔说：“我想向包括我自己在内的所有人证明，我仍然是正常人，不管正常意味着什么”；再结合第三段中的“Toreachmorepeopleinalargercity,HillmovedtoLosAngelesin2014an

dformedateamofdancerswithdisabilitiesshecalledtheRollettes.”可知，为了接触到更大城市的更多人，希尔于2014年搬到了洛杉矶，并组建了一个名为“Rollettes”的残疾人舞蹈团，由此判断出，希尔组建Rollettes残疾人舞

蹈团是因为她想激励更多像她一样的人，故A项正确。26.B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Ihavemoreconfidence.”可知，埃德娜塞拉诺说她在参加RollettesExperience舞蹈夏令营后变得更加自信了，故B项正确。27.C推理判断题。根据第一段中的“ButforHill,i

twasthebeginning.Farfrombeingabarrier,herwheelchairencouragedhertofight.“IwanttoprovetoeveryoneincludingmyselfthatI'mstillnormal,”s

hesaid,“whatevernormalmeans.””可知，对希尔来说，这只是个开始，她的轮椅非但不是障碍，反而激励她与身体残疾斗争，她说：“我想向包括我自己在内的所有人证明，我仍然是正常人，不管正常意味着什么”，根据第二段中的“Halfofherbodywastakenawayfromhe

r,soshehadtomoveitwithherhands.Ittookmuchlearningandpatience.”可知，希尔下肢瘫痪，所以她不得不用手移动轮椅来跳舞，这需要很多的学习和耐心，

这两点说明希尔的意志很坚定；再根据第三段中的“Toreachmorepeopleinalargercity,HillmovedtoLosAngelesin2014andformedateamofdancerswithdisabilitiesshecalledtheRollettes.”可知，

为了在更大城市接触到更多的人（为了激励更多和她一样的人），希尔于2014年搬到了洛杉矶并组建了一个名为“Rollettes”的残疾人舞蹈团，根据倒数第二段中的“EveryyearHillholdsadancecampcalledtheRollett

esExperienceforwheelchairuserstohelpthembringouttheiractingtalent.”可知，希尔每年都为坐轮椅的人举办一个名为RollettesExperience的舞蹈夏令营，帮助他们发挥表演才能，这两点说明她非常鼓舞人心，故

deastowalkonwhatwasseenasanunconventionalcareerpath.可知，这并不容易，因为Sneha不得不与她的家庭和社会观念斗争，走在被视为非传统的职业道路上。由此可知，Sneha的父母认为她的梦想非传统。故选D。5.A细节理解题。根据第二段中Ials

ocarriedmybookseverywhereasItoldmyselfthatstudieswerealsoapreferencealongwithracing.可知，我也随身带着我的书，因为我告诉自己，学

习和赛跑一样是我的爱好。由此可知，Sneha认为学术和比赛一样重要。故选A。6.D细节理解题。根据第三段中Allthishustlewasattheageof16,andpreparedhertogetuptospeedforabusylife.In2007,s

hewenttoSanFranciscoforflyingclasses.Ayearlater,shejoinedIndigoAirlinestoflyAirbus320.可知，她在16岁的时候就开始了这种忙碌的生活，并为以后的忙碌生活做好了准备。2007年，她去旧金山上飞行课

。一年后，她加入了Indigo航空公司，驾驶空客320。由此可知，Sneha18岁的时候开始驾驶客机的。故选D。7.C推理判断题。根据最后一段中Clearly,herhardworkhasputhercareeratthetopspeed!可

知，显然，她的努力工作使她的事业达到了顶峰！结合文章内容Sneha为自己的梦想不懈努力和奋斗，由此可推知，Sneha是个努力的人。故选C。Passage7Oneofthemostimportantthingsthathashappenedtomeoccurredlo

AUniqueNameC.RememberthePastD.TheMeaningofNickname文章大意：这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者介绍了自己的昵称及其背后蘊含的深意。4.B细节理解题。由第一段中的“Asthestorygoes,IwasthreedaysoldandMom

wassinging“TheNameGame”songtome:“ChristineBo-Bean-Banana-Fanna-Fo-Feen.”Bydayfour,Iwasgivenanewname—Christine-Bo-Bean

,orjustBo-Beetomymother.”（故事是这样的，我三天大，妈妈给我唱了一首“名字游戏”的歌：“克莉丝汀·波豆香蕉粉”。到了第四天，我得到了一个新的名字，克莉丝汀·波豆，或者对于妈妈来说是波比。），可知作者出生后四天大得到了昵称。故选B项。5.C推理判断题。由第三段

中的“Theystillseemeasaquiet,bookishchild.Theydon’tknowwhoIamnow.Mymostrecenthopes,fears,goals,dreamsandopinionsescapeth

eirnotice;itiseasiertothinkofmeasIwas”（他们仍然把我看作一个安静的，书呆子。他们不知道我现在是谁。我最近的希望、恐惧、目标、梦想和观点都没有引起他们的注意；更容易把我想

象成原来的我。），可推断出他们并没有意识到作者的改变。故选C项。6.D推理判断题。由第四段中的“Boisatightsqueezeintheold“Christine”boxes.”（Bo是个挤在旧“Christine”盒子里的人。），

可知作者的过去指的是Christine（克莉丝汀）；再有第五段中的“WhenIwasChristine,Iwasquiet,andeasilyscared.Ifearedgroups,meetingnewpeopleandsha

ringmyopinions.Iwasmorecomfortablewithabookthanmybestfriend.AsChristine,IthoughteveryonewasbetterthanIwas.”（当我还是

克莉丝汀的时候，我很安静，很容易害怕。我害怕团体，害怕结识新朋友，害怕分享自己的观点。与其和好朋友待在一起，我更喜欢和书相处，这样更舒服。作为克莉丝汀，我觉得每个人都比我好。），可推断出作者过去缺乏信心、宁愿独处。故选D项。7.A主旨大意题。第一段讲昵

称Christine-Bo-Bean的由来，第二段讲昵称Bo的重要性，第三段讲本名Christine的自己在大家眼中是什么样的，第四到五段讲作者成为“Christine”和“Bo”的不同之处，第六到八段讲自己更喜欢Bo的身份，所以文章讲的是Bo这个真正

的名字。故选A项。Passage8Sincebirth,JoyandMiriamwereleftatthegateofanorphanage(孤儿院).Forthedisabledsisters,whobothhavespinabifida(脊柱裂),itmayhaveseeme

ance【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了作者曾经在一家政府机构工作，每天分拣邮件，作者一到那里就发现，邮件插槽上的标签不是人名，而是姓名的首字母。于是重复地询问同事金太太为什么要这么做，导致最后被解雇。最后人事经理告诉了作者谷仓啄食的故事，让作者

明白了要尊重他人。8.B细节理解题。根据第二段中Iwashorrifiedtoseethattheslotswerelabelednotwithpeople’snamesbutwiththeirinitials.可知我震惊地发现，这些插槽上的标签不是人名，而是姓名的首

字母。由此可知，作者刚开始工作时，发现插槽上的标签不是全名而是首字母。故选B。9.A细节理解题。根据第二段中Withoutthinking,Iaskedwhythiswasagoodidea,onlytoreceiveasharpg

lancefromMrs.King.SoIrepeatedthequestion.ThistimeMrs.KingtoldmenottoquestionwhatIdidn’tunderstand.可知我不假思索地问为什么这是一个好主意，结果只得到金太太锐利的一瞥。所以我重复了这个问题。这一

次金夫人告诉我不要问我不明白的问题。以及第三段中WhenIaskedMrs.Kingabouttheprocedures,however,shealwaysreactedthesameway.可知然而，当我

向金太太询问程序时，她的反应总是一样的。由此可知，作者在两个月后被解雇，因为他不停地问他的老板金太太。故选A。10.D词义猜测题。根据第三段中Mrs.King,themanagersaid,wasthatlowliestchickena

tthebottomofthepeckingorderintheagency’smanagement.Nooneshoulddoubtforamomentthatsheruledherrooster.可知经理

说，金太太是公司管理层中最低级的人。谁也不应该怀疑她支配着她的公鸡。由此可推知，谷仓啄食顺序指的是公司里的排名系统。故选D。11.C推理判断题。根据最后一段中EventuallyIsawhowarro

gant,andhowunsympathetic,mybehaviorhadbeen.Inmynextjob,I’lllearnthepeckingorderbeforeIbecomeareformer,ifIdo.可知最终，我看到了我的行为是多么傲慢，多么没有同情心。在我的下一份工作中，

如果我想成为一名改革家，我会先学习一下社会等级。由此可知，作者从他的工作经历中学到了尊重。故选C。
