A.improvepeople’sreadingabilityB.solvetheproblemsfacedbythewholeworldC.helpthepoortoreducepovertyD.causepovertyindevelopingcountries答案C解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的“Itisatoolwhichholdstheabilitytochangethelivesofthepoor,asitprovidesameansoflearningandmunicating.”可知,由于科技提供學(xué)習(xí)和交流的方法,所以它是能夠改變窮人命運的工具。25.WecanlearnfromthetextthatKhanAcademyaimsto.

A.helpthepoorpayforgoodcoursesB.provideeverychildwithaputerC.helptrainMBAcandidatesD.makeeveryonereceivegoodeducation答案D解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的“KhanAcademyisonesuchservice.LikeOLPC,itisanorganisationfoundedbyHarvardBusinessSchoolgraduateSalmanKhanwiththetaskofproviding‘a(chǎn)free,worldclasseducationtoanyone,anywhere’.”可知,該組織的目的是使每一個人都能接受世界一流的教育。26.Inthepast,peopleindevelopingcountries.

A.hadnoeducationalopportunitiesintheirhomelandB.seldomthoughtofreceivingforeigneducationtochangethemselvesC.alwaysbelievededucationwasofgreatimportanceD.wouldn’tleavetheirhomelandtoreducepoverty答案B解析推理判斷題。由最后一段的“Moreandmorepeoplewilltrytoimprovetheirlivesthrougheducationalopportunitiesoutsideoftheirhomeland—anideausuallyunmonindevelopingcountries.”可知,現(xiàn)在越來越多的人通過本國之外的教育機會來改善他們的生活,過去這在發(fā)展中國家是不常見的。由此可以推斷出,過去發(fā)展中國家的人們很少想到通過接受國外的教育來改變自己的命運。27.Whydidtheauthorwritethetext?A.Tointroducesomeorganisationsindevelopedcountriestohelpdevelopingcountriesbytechnology.B.Toexplainwhyeducationandtechnologyrevolutionareveryimportanttodevelopingcountries.C.Todescriberelationshipsbetweendevelopedcountriesanddevelopingcountries.D.Toshowhoweducationalprogrammesindevelopedcountriesarestarted.答案A解析寫作意圖題。該文主要介紹了發(fā)達國家的幾個組織,它們通過科技手段幫助發(fā)展中國家的人們接受教育,故A項作為寫作目的最合適。CFormanyyearstheschoolsysteminFinlandhasbeenverysuccessful.InthePISAsurvey,whichparesreading,mathandscienceknowledgeof15yearoldsaroundtheworld,FinlandisnotonlythetopEuropeancountrybutalsopeteswithAsiangiantslikeSingaporeandSouthKorea.Butwhatmakestheeducationalsysteminthissmallcountrysodifferentfromothersinthewesternworld?Untilthe1960sFinland’sschoolsystemhadbeeninfluencedlargelybyitsneighbour.Moststudentsleftschoolaftersixyears;somewentontoprivateschools.Onlythewealthyonesgotabettereducation.Inthemiddleofthe1960stheFinnishgovernmentsawtheneedtochangeandmodernizetheireducationsystemiftheywantedtobeinternationallypetitive.Lawmakersmadeasimpledecision:abasicschoolforallthe7to16yearoldspulsory(義務(wù)的)educationbeginsat7.Thegovernmentmakesitpossibleforallchildrentoattendpreschoolaswell.MostofFinland’sschoolsgettheirmoneyfromthegovernment.Thepeoplewhoareinchargeoftheeducationsystemfromteacherstoofficialsaretrainedteachers,notpoliticianslikeinothercountries.Teachersworkwiththeirpupilsinschoolasmuchaspossible.Whenteachersarenotwiththepupils,theyspendalotoftimeinschoolsworkingonthecurriculum(課程)andnewprojects.SchoolsinFinlandaresmall,atleastforinternationalstandards.Soteachersknoweverypupilintheirschoolandtryeverythingtosucceedwiththeirpupils.Thatiswhydropoutratesarelowparedtoothercountries.Incontrasttoothernations,teachersinFinlandarehighlyrespected.Finlandselectsitsteachersverycarefully:onlytalentedstudentswhogoontoauniversityandreceiveamaster’sdegreeineducationcanbeselectedasteachers.Finlandonlytakesthebesttoeducateitsyouth.AllFinnishchildren,whethertheyefromthecityorthecountry,whetherfromarichorpoorfamily,havethesamechancesineducation.Therearenotsomanydifferencesbetweenthewealthyandthepoor,asinAmericaorotherwesternEuropeancountries.Educationexpertssaythatthereisverylittledifferencebetweenverygoodandtheworststudents.TwothirdsofFinnishpupilsmoveontohighereducation,thehighestrateintheEuropeanUnion.28.TheteachersinFinland.

A.receivespecialtrainingquiteoftenB.devotelotsoftimetotheirworkC.trytheirbesttohelpthedropoutsD.paymoreattentiontotalentedstudents答案B解析細節(jié)理解題。由第四段中的“Teachersworkwiththeirpupilsinschoolasmuchaspossible.Whenteachersarenotwiththepupils,theyspendalotoftimeinschoolsworkingonthecurriculumandnewprojects.”可知,芬蘭的教師在工作上投入了大量的時間。29.Wecanlearnfromthetextthat.

A.thechildreninFinlandareeducatedequallyB.thechildreninFinlandattendpreschoolattheageofsixC.theschoolsysteminFinlandisbetterthanthatinSingaporeD.theschoolequipmentinFinlanddoesn’tmeetinternationalstandards答案A解析細節(jié)理解題。由第五段中的“AllFinnishchildren,whethertheyefromthecityorthecountry,whetherfromarichorpoorfamily,havethesamechancesineducation.”可知芬蘭的孩子受教育的機會均等。30.Whichofthefollowingbestshowsthestructureofthetext?答案D解析邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)題。文章為總分結(jié)構(gòu),第一段提到芬蘭的教育體制很成功,接下來的幾段分別從教育體制變革、學(xué)校狀況、師資、學(xué)生受教育機會等方面進行論述。31.Whatcanbethebesttitleforthetext?A.WhatDifferencesEuropeanSchoolsHaveB.WhatGoodSchoolsProvideStudentsWithC.WhyFinland’sSchoolSystemIsSuccessfulD.WhyFinland’sSchoolSystemHasChanged答案C解析主旨大意題。文章開頭提出芬蘭的教育體制很成功,接下來分析成功的原因,因此以WhyFinland’sSchoolSystemIsSuccessful作為文章的標(biāo)題最合適。DYoungchildrenaretrustingmercialadvertisementsinthemedia,andadvertisershavesometimesbeenaccusedoftakingadvantageofthistrustingoutlook.TheIndependentTelevisionmission,regulatoroftelevisionadvertising,hascriticisedadvertisersfor“misleadingness”,inanefforttocontroladvertisers’useoftechniquesthatmakeitdifficultforchildrentojudgethetruesize,action,performance,orconstructionofatoy.Fantasyisoneofthemontechniquesinadvertisingthatcouldmisleadyoungaudience.Inchildren’sadvertising,advertisersaremorelikelytoincludefantasythanadvertisementsaimedatadults.InacontentanalysisofCanadiantelevision,theauthorStephenKlineobservedthatnearlyallmercialsforcharactertoysfeaturedfantasyplay.Childrenhavestrongimaginationsandtheuseoffantasybringstheirideastolife,butchildrenmaynotbeadeptenoughtorealisethatwhattheyareviewingisunreal.Fantasysituationsarefrequentlyusedtoattractchildren’sattention,particularlyinfoodadvertising.Advertisementsforbreakfasthavebeenfoundtobeespeciallyfondoffantasytechniques.Generally,thereisuncertaintyastowhetherveryyoungchildrencandistinguishbetweenfantasyandrealityinadvertising.Theuseofpopstarssuchassingersandmoviestarsismoninadvertising.Theintentionisforthepositivequalitiesofpopstarstobetransferredtotheadvertisedproductandforthetwotobeelinkedinaudience’smind.Inchildren’sadvertising,thepopstarsareoftenvividfiguresfrompopularcartoons.Inrecentyears,theroleofpopstarsinadvertisingtochildrenhasoftenbeenbinedwiththeconceptofhostselling.Hostsellinginvolvesadvertisementswithregularprogramminginawaythatmakesitdifficulttodistinguishonefromtheother.Hostsellingoccurs,forexample,whenachildren’sshowaboutacartoonlioncontainsanadvertisementinwhichthesamelionpromotesabreakfast.ThepsychologistDaleKunkelshowsthatthepracticeofhostsellinghasreducedchildren’sabilitytodistinguishbetweenadvertisingandtheprogrammematerial.Meanwhile,healsoshowssomeothertrickyadvertisements.32.Whatcanwelearnaboutthefantasytechniquefromthepassage?A.Itisespeciallyusedinadvertisingproductsforadults.B.Childrenarelikelytomistakeitforreality.C.Youngchildrenarequiteawareofitstricks.D.Itmakesithardforchildrentojudgehowmuchatoycosts.答案B解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段中的“Childrenhavestrongimaginationsandtheuseoffantasybringstheirideastolife,butchildrenmaynotbeadeptenoughtorealisethatwhattheyareviewingisunreal.”可以判斷出答案。33.Theunderlinedword“adept”inthepassageisclosestinmeaningto“”.

A.responsible B.patientC.skillful D.curious答案C解析詞義猜測題。前文說孩子們具有豐富的想象力,后文提到他們意識不到他們所看到的不真實,所以可以判斷出adept表示“擅長的,內(nèi)行的,熟練的”,因此選擇skillful。34.Inanadvertisement,acartoonlionisusedfor.

A.thepromotionofaproductB.thelovelynatureofalionC.thefantasyofalionD.theregularprogramme答案A解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Hostsellingoccurs,forexample,whenachildren’sshowaboutacartoonlioncontainsanadvertisementinwhichthesamelionpromotesabreakfast.”可以推斷出答案。35.Whatwouldthefollowingparagraphmostprobablybeabout?A.Developmentinadvertising.B.Misleadingadvertisedtoys.C.Childrenandadvertisement.D.Anotherilltechniqueforadvertising.答案D解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一句中的“someothertrickyadvertisements”可知接下來文章將會論述另一個欺騙人的廣告技巧。第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項,選項中有兩項為多余選項。Bothmenandwomenarelivinglongerthesedaysinindustrializedcountries.36.Ingeneral,theycanexpecttolivesixorsevenyearsmorethanmen.Onereasonforthisisbiological.

41.A.result B.truthC.reason D.idea答案B解析此處語境為:無論什么時候聽到“無家可歸”,我們都會想到發(fā)展中國家,但事實上無家可歸者到處都有。根據(jù)前句意思可知前面說的是想的內(nèi)容,由后面的but可知要說的是實際的事情,故選B項。42.A.traditional B.developingC.typical D.wealthy答案D解析此處語境為:我們中有多少人會料到在像德國這樣的富裕國家里也能看見有人住在街上?根據(jù)后面的Germany可知應(yīng)是指一些富裕的國家。traditional傳統(tǒng)的,developing發(fā)展中的,typical典型的。43.A.preparations B.housesC.meals D.suggestions答案C解析夫婦二人已經(jīng)花了十一年為無家可歸者做仮。由后面的“madesandwiches...gavefoodtothehomeless”可知應(yīng)是meals。44.A.began B.metC.called D.left答案A解析由“first”可推知他們第一次幫助別人是在一個夏天,故選A項。45.A.asleep B.aloneC.across D.away答案D解析在這樣一個漫長而炎熱的夏天里,大多數(shù)德國人都外出度假。由“mostGermans”和“onholiday”可知選D項。46.A.broughtup B.setupC.putaside D.gaveaway答案B解析他們在家里做了三明治,在街上擺放桌子,為無家可歸者提供食物。setup有“搭起,支起”之意。bringup“撫養(yǎng)”,putaside“放到一邊”,giveaway“捐贈,泄露”,均不合題意。47.A.enough B.necessaryC.helpful D.expensive答案A解析夫婦二人意識到了僅提供衣食是遠遠不夠的。由后面的“Whatthesepeoplealsoneediswarmth...”可知。48.A.fame B.freedomC.courage D.caring答案D解析這些人同時還需要溫暖與關(guān)愛。由and連接的warmth可知此處需要的是“關(guān)愛”。49.A.hesitate B.agreeC.pretend D.intend答案A解析根據(jù)后面的“givetheirphonenumber”以及前面的“didn’t”可知他們是“毫不猶豫”地把號碼給了需要幫助的人。50.A.madesense B.foundoutC.madesure D.workedout答案C解析由后面的內(nèi)容可知Rita是“確?！奔依飼r時都有人,他們家隨時對那些需要幫助的人“開放”。51.A.open B.crowdedC.noisy D.near答案A解析他們的家隨時對不能在街上過夜的人開放。52.A.costing B.wastingC.taking D.spending答案D解析此處是指二人“花光了”所有的錢,故只能用spending,而不用costing,更不能用wasting。taking是指占用“時間或空間”。53.A.payfor B.askforC.lookinto D.carryout答案B解析由上下文可知,二人是去“尋求”一些幫助。只有askfor可表達此意,payfor為……付錢,lookinto調(diào)查,carryout執(zhí)行,均不符題意。54.Apletely B.calmlyC.regularly D.roughly答案C解析此處是指經(jīng)過夫婦二人的努力,“三十多家公司能定期捐贈食物和其他東西”。修飾donate,只有C項最合適。55.A.advertise B.sellC.deliver D.lend答案C解析根據(jù)上下文可知志愿者是把這些捐贈物“送到”那些無家可歸者那里,而不是sell。此題抓住主題可以排除其他幾個選項。56.A.donates B.producesC.designs D.collects答案A解析由文章主題不難推斷出此處應(yīng)為“捐贈”一些新的鞋,而不是“生產(chǎn)”。donate捐贈;produce生產(chǎn);design設(shè)計;collcet收集。57.A.permission B.paymentC.direction D.support答案B解析夫婦二人做這些事情是沒有“報酬”的。permission允許;payment報酬;direction方向,指導(dǎo);support支持。58.A.borrow B.raiseC.save D.expect答案D解析父母不會指望因幫助他們的子女而獲利。其他選項均無法表達此意。59.A.surprised B.excitedC.tired D.amused答案C解析根據(jù)句意,此處應(yīng)該是指盡管她非常“勞累”,但她說會繼續(xù)她的工作。60.A.profit B.differenceC.decision D.rule答案B解析makeadifference“對……有影響”。她會繼續(xù)這一工作的原因在于她喜歡那種通過自己的努力來使這個世界變得更美好的感覺。第二節(jié)(共10小題;每小題1.5分,滿分15分)導(dǎo)學(xué)號86964015閱讀下面短文,在空白處填入1個單詞或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。Thirtyyearsago,municationwasn’tsoconvenient.Andmygrandparentswroteletterstotheirfriendsandrelatives.Theyalsowrotetoeach
