參考答案第一部分第一節(jié)A【文章大意】這是一篇應(yīng)用文。本文是在招聘家教,并對(duì)工作的性質(zhì)、要求、條件、申請(qǐng)方式等進(jìn)行了詳細(xì)的描述。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Jobdescription這一主題下面的第四段“OnceourfallsemesterstartsonAugust21,wewillhaveevenhigherdemandsfortutoringsessionsonSundaysfrom1pmto8pmaswellasfrom3pmto9pmMonday—Thursday.”可知,最需要家教的時(shí)間是周日下午和晚上。故選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題干中的“morethan30hoursperweek”可知,答案位于文章中Whatweoffer這一主題下,由“Healthinsurancereimbursement(補(bǔ)償)…”可知,每周工作超過(guò)30個(gè)小時(shí)的家庭教師可享受到健康保險(xiǎn)補(bǔ)償,故選C。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章中Applicantsmust這一主題下的“Haveagoodcommandofthesubjectstheytutor.”可知,申請(qǐng)者必須精通所教授的科目,故選B。B【文章大意】這是一篇記敘文。文章講述了發(fā)生在加州的一次嚴(yán)重的大火,消防隊(duì)員和志愿者冒著生命危險(xiǎn)救人。但同時(shí)一匹馬逃離救援隊(duì),尋找并救助自己的家人的故事同樣使人感動(dòng)。作者告訴我們,一切善行都值得稱贊。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的“…burninghomesandforcingmorethan200,000peopletoleavetheirhomes.Thousandsofstructuresweredestroyedinthemassivefires.(……燒毀了房屋,迫使20多萬(wàn)人離開(kāi)家園。成千上萬(wàn)的建筑物在大火中被毀。)”可推測(cè),作者說(shuō)到這些結(jié)果的目的是說(shuō)明野火有多嚴(yán)重。故選B。詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段的“AvideoofahorserunningawayfromtherescueteamtofindhisfamilyofhorsesfromCBSLosAngeleswentviral.Thepublicwastouchedbythehorse’sheroicactandsharedtheirthoughtsontheInternet.”可知,來(lái)自哥倫比亞廣播公司洛杉磯分部的有關(guān)一匹馬逃離救援隊(duì),尋找自己的“家人”的一段視頻傳開(kāi)了。人們被馬的英勇行為感動(dòng)了,并在網(wǎng)上分享了他們的想法。根據(jù)上下文語(yǔ)境,尤其是touched和shared可推測(cè)畫(huà)線部分意為“傳開(kāi)了”。故選D。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段的“Thehorseracedbackintodangertoleadhisfamilytosafety,despiterescuers’besteffortstostophim.Heknewhecouldn’tleavethembehind.(不顧救援人員的全力阻止,這匹馬跑回危險(xiǎn)中,把‘他’的家人帶到安全的地方。‘他’知道‘他’不能丟下‘他們’。)”可推測(cè),這匹馬勇敢且關(guān)心家人。故選B。推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的“…thevideoandcountlessotherrescuestories—humansandanimalsalike—areshininglightonallactsofgoodnesstakingplace.(……這段視頻和無(wú)數(shù)其他救援故事——人類(lèi)和動(dòng)物都一樣——都讓我們看到了所有正在發(fā)生的善舉。)”可推測(cè),作者告訴我們無(wú)論是人類(lèi)還是動(dòng)物,一切善行都值得稱贊。故選C。C【文章大意】這是一篇議論文。成年后,我們有三分之一的時(shí)間在工作,還有很大一部分時(shí)間在為職業(yè)生涯做準(zhǔn)備。工作是為了生存,而把“完整的自己”帶到工作中去,這也是一種相當(dāng)新穎的職業(yè)建議。文章還說(shuō)明了不同的人對(duì)工作的看法是不同的。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“Weworkedtoeatandavoidbeingeaten.”可知,我們工作是為了吃飯和避免被吃掉。由此可知,我們成年后大部分時(shí)間都在工作是為了生存。故選D。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“Theideathatwearemeanttofindmeaningatworkortofindworkmeaningfulisarathermodern,ifnotpostmodern,invention.”可知,我們注定要在工作中找到意義或找到有意義的工作,這種想法即使不是后現(xiàn)代的,也是相當(dāng)現(xiàn)代的發(fā)明。接著在后文中作者提到了一位世紀(jì)前的工人,由此可推知,作者提到這位一個(gè)世紀(jì)前的工人,是為了證明這個(gè)想法是現(xiàn)代的。故選B。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“Hispointwasthatemployeesdifferinthedegreetowhichtheyidentifywiththeirworkrole.”可知,他的觀點(diǎn)是,員工對(duì)自己工作角色的認(rèn)同程度各不相同。由此可知,A選項(xiàng)“員工對(duì)自己的工作角色有不同的理解”屬于WilliamKahn的觀點(diǎn)。故選A。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中“Theyare,itseems,almostpossessedbyworkandarethetypeofworkaholics(工作狂)mostcompanieslongfor.”可知,他們似乎幾乎被工作控制住了,是大多數(shù)公司渴望的工作狂類(lèi)型的人。由此可知,大多數(shù)公司喜歡全身心投入工作的員工。故選C。D【文章大意】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了一種衛(wèi)星的成功研制將使大眾探索太空成為可能。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中“SmallerthanastandardCubeSat,thelow-coststudent-designedspacecraftisaimedatprovidinggreateraccesstospaceforscientistsandhobbyistsalike.”和第三段“‘That’spartofourmajorgoal—spacediscoveryforeverybody.’”可以推斷出,研制這種微型衛(wèi)星的主要目的是幫助大眾探索太空。故選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“EachSunCubeFemtoSathasitsowncommunication,datacollectionandpropulsion(推進(jìn))systemsandispoweredbysolarpanels.Itismadeofoff-the-shelfpartsthatareavailableinshops,andtheenergy-efficientsolarpanelsarecutfromscrap(廢料),whichmakesitsaveenergy,soldatadiscountbymanufacturers.”可知,每個(gè)SunCubeFemtoSat都有自己的通信、數(shù)據(jù)收集和推進(jìn)系統(tǒng),并由太陽(yáng)能電池板供電。它是由商店里現(xiàn)成的零件制成的,而高效節(jié)能的太陽(yáng)能電池板是從廢料中切割出來(lái)的,這使得它能夠節(jié)約能源,并在制造商那里打折出售。由此可知,這種微型衛(wèi)星用太陽(yáng)能板供電,所用的材料都是節(jié)能環(huán)保的。故選B。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段“ThangaandhisstaffviewtheSunCubeFemtoSatasastartingpointforscientistsandstudents,andevenhopethedevicecouldbeboughtonthewebsitelikeAmazononeday.”可知,Thanga和他的工作人員將SunCubeFemtoSat視為科學(xué)家和學(xué)生的一個(gè)起點(diǎn),甚至希望有一天能在亞馬遜這樣的網(wǎng)站上買(mǎi)到這種設(shè)備。由此可知,Thanga希望人們能夠在網(wǎng)上買(mǎi)到SunCubeFemtoSat。故選A。標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)第一段中的關(guān)鍵句“Fancyyourownsatellite?”和第三段中的關(guān)鍵句“‘That’spartofourmajorgoal—spacediscoveryforeverybody.’”可以歸納出,B項(xiàng)“你自己的衛(wèi)星就要來(lái)了”作為標(biāo)題最能夠反映文章主題且吸引讀者。故選B。第二節(jié)【文章大意】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,主要介紹了如何記住我們讀過(guò)的書(shū)。根據(jù)空后“Youmayhavejustreadthetext,buttheideas,conceptsandimagesmayflyrightoutofyourhead.”可知,“你”可能已經(jīng)閱讀了文章,但文章里的思想、概念和圖像可能馬上就從你的腦中飛出去了,這說(shuō)明有時(shí)候記憶是件很難對(duì)付的事情,選項(xiàng)C符合語(yǔ)境。故選C。根據(jù)空前“Iftheplot,thecharacters,orwordusageisconfusingforyou,youlikelywon’tbeabletorememberwhatyouread.”可知如果故事情節(jié)、人物或詞匯用法讓你感到困惑,你可能不會(huì)記得你讀過(guò)的東西,選項(xiàng)D指出困惑的感覺(jué)就像是在讀外語(yǔ),符合語(yǔ)境。故選D。根據(jù)空前“Withsomebooks,youmayfeelaconnectionrightaway.”可知對(duì)于有些書(shū),你可能馬上感覺(jué)到一種聯(lián)系。本句中的somebooks和選項(xiàng)F中的otherbooks相對(duì)應(yīng),因此選項(xiàng)F“Butotherbooksrequireabitmoreworkonyourpart.(但是其他的書(shū)需要你做更多的工作。)”符合語(yǔ)境。故選F。空前舉了狄更斯的例子,“他會(huì)對(duì)著鏡子做鬼臉,為每個(gè)角色改變自己的聲音?！苯酉聛?lái)應(yīng)該是建議你也可以做同樣的事,因此選項(xiàng)G“Youcandothesamethingwhenyouarereadingthetext!(你讀文章時(shí)也能做同樣的事!)”符合語(yǔ)境。故選G。根據(jù)前文“Ifyoureadfrequently,you’lllikelyhaveaneasiertimewithrememberingwhatyou’rereadingandwhatyou’veread.”可知,如果你經(jīng)常閱讀,你可能會(huì)更容易記住你正在讀的內(nèi)容和曾經(jīng)讀過(guò)的內(nèi)容。此處是告訴我們熟能生巧,因此選項(xiàng)B“Practicemakesperfect.(熟能生巧。)”符合語(yǔ)境。故選B。第二部分第一節(jié)【文章大意】這是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者做兼職,幫食品公司快遞快餐,可是一份訂單的地址寫(xiě)錯(cuò)了,讓作者浪費(fèi)了半個(gè)小時(shí)。作者很生氣,但見(jiàn)到顧客后,顧客的態(tài)度和解釋讓作者原諒了他們,為此作者受到了公司的表?yè)P(yáng)。根據(jù)上文“…payoff…”可知,作者需要這個(gè)工作來(lái)還清債務(wù)(debt)。ticket票;product產(chǎn)品;tax稅。根據(jù)上文“…deliverfood…”可知,作者得到了一個(gè)訂單(order)。根據(jù)下文“Thecustomergotchargedahigherdeliveryfee,whichwouldbepaidtome.”可知,這實(shí)際上是件好(good)事。根據(jù)下文thecustomer’sfood可知,作者拿起(pickup)顧客的食物,開(kāi)車(chē)去他的家。cutup切碎;payfor為……付錢(qián);waitfor等待。根據(jù)下文“…putinthewrongaddress…”可知,顧客告訴作者的地址是錯(cuò)(wrong)的。因?yàn)榈刂峰e(cuò)了,在這個(gè)訂單上“我”已經(jīng)浪費(fèi)(waste)了半個(gè)小時(shí)了。另外,“我”丟失(lose)了另一個(gè)訂單,它在此期間被重新分配給另一個(gè)人。根據(jù)下文“…becausehisdeliveryhadtakensolong.”可知,作者估計(jì)顧客的心情會(huì)不好。expect除了表示“期待”,也表示“預(yù)計(jì)”。根據(jù)下文“…Iwasgreetedbyaverypleasantcustomer.”可知,顧客很高興,這和上文作者所預(yù)想的形成對(duì)比,表示轉(zhuǎn)折,故選D。結(jié)合語(yǔ)境可知是不小心把地址寫(xiě)錯(cuò)了。故選C。byaccident意為“意外地,偶然地”。inreturn作為回報(bào);withpleasure樂(lè)意地;onpurpose故意地。知道真相(truth)后,“我”沒(méi)有向顧客抱怨。但是他說(shuō)他感到很抱歉(sorry),并決定給“我”額外的30美元現(xiàn)金來(lái)補(bǔ)償“我”的麻煩。anxious焦慮的;ashamed羞愧的;afraid害怕的。結(jié)合語(yǔ)境可知,他們想用額外的30美元現(xiàn)金來(lái)補(bǔ)償“我”因?yàn)檫@件事情造成的麻煩(trouble)。courage勇氣;progress進(jìn)程;patience耐心?！拔摇敝馈拔摇毙枰X(qián),但“我”也知道寬恕是一種美德。所以“我”拒絕(refuse)了。根據(jù)下文“…Iwasgivenanextraamountofmoneyasareward.”可知,公司表?yè)P(yáng)(praise)了作者。employ雇用;fire解雇;charge指控,收費(fèi)。第二節(jié)【文章大意】本文為記敘文。文章敘述了30年前,加拿大一對(duì)老年夫婦開(kāi)展了一項(xiàng)獨(dú)特的項(xiàng)目,來(lái)幫助加拿大人更好地了解中國(guó)。他們?cè)?985年出版了《通過(guò)卡通
