從初學(xué)者到經(jīng)驗豐富的專家。探索下面的RecWcll俱樂部。）”可知，該文章介紹的是普渡大學(xué)的俱樂部，

同時根據(jù)每個部分的郵件地址可知，該文章來自于校園網(wǎng)。故選B項。

women，sand6men'sevents.（我們擁有并運營4個女子項目和6個男子項目的設(shè)備。）“可知，該俱樂部管

理十項賽事設(shè)備。故選C項。

【答案】24.B25.C26.B27.C

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇夾敘夾議。文章主要敘述了作者參加世界杯的經(jīng)歷，包括親眼所見的現(xiàn)場情況以及自

己的感受，通過這些經(jīng)歷來說明體育運動可以團(tuán)結(jié)人們，避免文化差異產(chǎn)生的隔閡，達(dá)到文化交流的效果。

【24題詳解】

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章第二段中uUnlikewhatonenormallyseesonthenews,thismatchwasmainlypeaceful

exceptforonefight.（與新聞上通常看到的不同，這場比賽主要是和平的，除了一場斗毆。）”及“Whenthe

fightstarted,thewholesectionbeganchanting（呼喊）withonevoice,askingthosefightingtostop.（□□開始時,

整個看臺開始異口同聲地高呼，要求斗毆者停止）”及結(jié)合劃線句子"Whentheydidn't,therabble-rousers

weresentoutbysecurityguardsminuteslater.（當(dāng)他們沒有這樣做時，...在幾分鐘后被保安人員送出

去。）”可知，觀眾呼喊打架停止，打架者沒有聽，被保安帶了出去，因此推測r知ble-rousers的意思為打

架的粉絲，故選B。

25題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中"WhatstruckmeaboutthegamesIattendedwasthesenseofcamaraderie.Imet

soccerfansfromdifferentcountries.Sometimeswewerecheeringforthesameteamandsometimesforopposite

teams,butthatdidn,tstopusfrombecomingfriends.（我參加的比賽讓我印象深刻的是友情。我遇到了來自不

同國家的足球迷。有時我們?yōu)橥恢蜿牃g呼，有時為對立的球隊歡呼，但這并沒有阻止我們成為朋

友。）”可知，讓作者印象深刻的是熱情的友誼。故選C。

【26題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中"IwaswithfriendsatalargebarwhichhostedamixofBrazilianandGennan

supporters.AsGermanyscoredonegoalafteranother,thesadnessandeventearswerevisibleonthefacesof

Brazilians.ButGermanfanscametotheBrazilianstocomfortthemandapologizethatthegamewasendingwith

者。當(dāng)?shù)聡犚粋€接一個地進(jìn)球時，巴西人臉上可以看到悲傷甚至淚水。但德國球迷來到巴西人面前安

慰他們，并為比賽以如此大的差距結(jié)束而道歉。每個人都希望有一場精彩的比賽。）”及第五段“Whatl

loveabouttheWorldCupisthatitprovidesachanceforpeopletolearnaboutothercountriesandcultures.（我喜

歡世界杯的原因是它為人們提供了一個了解其他國家和文化的機(jī)會。）”可知，作者提到自己酒吧的經(jīng)歷

是為了說明一點，即運動可以團(tuán)結(jié)不同國家和文化背景的人們。故選B。

【27題詳解】

推理判斷題。文章主要介紹了作者在巴西參加世界杯的經(jīng)歷，以及體育運動有可能讓來自不同國家和文

化背景的人團(tuán)結(jié)在一起。根據(jù)第五段中uPeoplelearnaboutthecountriesoftheteamstheysupportandabout

theiropponents5historyandculture.Soccerisagamethatnotonlygivespeoplethechancetolearnabouteach

otherbutalsohasthepotentialtounitepeople.（人們了解他們支持的球隊的國家以及對手的歷史和文化。足

球是一項不僅讓人們有機(jī)會相互了解，而且還有可能團(tuán)結(jié)人們的游戲。）”以及第六段“Sportscanbea

dividingforce,butthetruespiritofsportsisaboutunityandfun.ThematchesatthisWorldCuphavebeen

exactlythatsofar,andIhopeitremainsso.（體育可以是一種分開的力量，但真正的體育精神是團(tuán)結(jié)和樂

趣。到目前為止，本屆世界杯的比賽就是這樣，我希望它能繼續(xù)保持下去。）”，再結(jié)合作者分享了來自不

同團(tuán)隊的球迷之間的和睦互動及合作，強(qiáng)調(diào)了體育運動可以促進(jìn)文化交流，讓人們了解其他國家和文

化，可推斷，文章揭示了體育運動盡管偶爾會出現(xiàn)沖突，但最主要的還是將全世界人民團(tuán)結(jié)在一起，促

進(jìn)文化交流與理解。故選C。

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹人工智能可能會讓會議變得更高效。

【28題詳解】

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞上文“It's"veryfeasible^^foranAItobeabletorecognisewhenonepersonis

hijackingameeting,orifacirculardiscussionkeepsreturningtoasingleissue,saysJamesCampanini,from

videoconferencingcompany,BlueJeans.（視頻會議公司BlueJeans的JamesCampanini表示，人工智能“非常

有可能”識別出一個人何時在強(qiáng)行進(jìn)行會議，或者一場循環(huán)討論是否不斷回到單一問題上）”可知，人工

智能能夠識別一個人何時強(qiáng)行控制了一次會議，或者循環(huán)討論是否不斷回到一個問題，即人工智能能讓

會議變得高效。由此可知，當(dāng)沒有新的內(nèi)容出現(xiàn)的時候，AI就會建議停止會議。故劃線詞意思是“結(jié)

束”。故選C。

【29題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中“TheprefectureofOsakainJapanstartedusinganAIasaminutetakerto
