绍了慢艺术日(SlowArtDay)的一些情况。1.B解析:推理判断题。根据“Whyslow?”中的“Themostimportant...seeandexperienceartwithoutanexpert.”并结合全文大意可知,本文介绍慢艺术日的情况,因此文章开头引用梭罗的话是为了引入主题。
2.C解析:细节理解题。根据“Howdoesitwork?”部分中的“Participantslookatfiveworksofartfor10minuteseachandthenmeettogetheroverlunchtotalkabouttheirexperience.”可知,在这项活
动中,参加的人先自己观看艺术作品,然后聚在一起谈论他们的体验,故选C项。3.A解析:推理判断题。根据“Howdoesitwork?”部分中的“Onedayeachyear”可知,该活动每年举办一次;再结合“Bythenu
mbers”部分中的“sinceitsofficiallaunchin2010”可知,该活动首次举办于2010年。故可推知2017年为第八届。因此A项正确。4.B解析:推理判断题。本文作者介绍了慢艺术日,结合最后一部分最
后一句“Joinusandexperienceartdifferently.”可知,作者推荐此活动并希望更多的人参与,故选B项。【解题导语】旅行之所以吸引人是因为它可以让人们探索未知,但是并不一定非要去旅行才可以达到这个目的。正如阿兰·沃茨建议的,我们应该关注当下,因为我们看似平淡的日常
生活同样可以很精彩。5.D解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的...whatawasteitseemedtobe,spendingourtimeinsideinfrontofacomputeralldaylong.Iendedup
leavingmyjob...inanofficeallday.可知,作者和朋友都不喜欢每天待在室内,坐在电脑前,所以他们辞掉了工作。故选D项。6.A解析:段落大意题。由...travelingisexciting.It’sgettingtoexperiencenewthings,gett
ingtobeaslightlydifferentversionofourselves...asenseofwonder.可知,本段主要讲述是什么原因让旅游如此吸引人。故选A项。7.A解析:词义猜测题。第二段内容讲述旅游的魅力所在,第三段首句使用单
词However(然而)表转折,表明本段表述的内容与第二段内容不同,即我们不需要到处逛,也可以使我们的生活一样精彩,movingaround意为“走来走去”符合句意,故选A项。8.B解析:标题归纳题。文章第三段表明了作者的观点,我们不一定非要去旅行才能探
索未知,发现新的自我,下文引用了阿兰·沃茨的话,表明我们应该活在当下,因为我们看似平淡的日常生活同样可以很精彩。故选B项。9-12.BCDA【解题导语】本文是一篇科普说明文,介绍了日本发明的一种新型洋葱。13.A解析:
细节理解题。根据第三段的第二句可知,这种新型洋葱不释放让人流泪的气体,故A项正确。14.B解析:段落大意题。通读该段可知,该段主要说明新型洋葱在日本深受欢迎,故B项正确。15.C解析:标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了一种新型洋葱并重点介绍了这种洋葱的
特点:它不像普通洋葱那样释放让人流泪的气体,故C项“不让你流泪的洋葱”最适合作本篇文章的标题。第二节16-20.CEBDF
