主題語境:人與自我-做人與做事本文是記截文，作者是一名工程師，但是喜歡喜劇表演，報(bào)名學(xué)習(xí)喜劇的

過程讓她意識(shí)到，不要刻意迎合他人。而要走自己認(rèn)為正確的道路.

24.Bo推斷。根據(jù)第一段中的ButcomedyexpertClaireLaMonroedidn'tevenHashasmilef???I,CIaire對(duì)作

者的第一次表演感到不滿意。

25.Do理解具體信息。根據(jù)第一段中的IhadgiVenher...jokeabouttake-your-kids-to-workday和例數(shù)第二中的

?talkedaboutmyofficelife可知，作者想談的是自己的辦公生活之類的日窩。B項(xiàng)是Claire給作者的建議“Ialk

aboutlifeintheneighborhood,,的錯(cuò)誤聯(lián)想:C項(xiàng)根據(jù)第三段術(shù)的asproudas?wasofmyroots,ldidn,twantto

turnthatlifeintojokes我除。

26.C,解詞匯。根據(jù)第三段中的Iwasn,texactlysurewhatCluiremeant和劃線短語后的IfIwantedtobe

authenticandreal,Ihadtodowhatfelttighttome可知，作者在上臺(tái)表演前，突然明白了Claire的意思。

27.Do理解主旨要義。根據(jù)全文特別是最后兩段可知,作者最終沒有遵循喜劇專家給自己設(shè)定的路線，而是

選擇了自己認(rèn)為正確的道路，最終找到了自己的幽默。Flmny在此作名詞,意為“笑話,有趣的故事”。

主題語境:人與自然一自然生態(tài)

本文是說明文。研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，金鵝會(huì)調(diào)整發(fā)聲以適應(yīng)不同的環(huán)境。

28.Co理解具體信息。根據(jù)第二段中的Thesignaturesbecamemaresimilarovertimeforpenguinsthatwere

partnersorinthesamecolony,andforpenguinsthatheardmoreofeachother'scalls可知，錄音顯示同?群體當(dāng)

中的企蕭發(fā)聲相似,即企鵝會(huì)被此同化發(fā)聲

29.Ao理解目的。根據(jù)第三段首句Thisadaptationcouldmakeiteasierforpenguinstofindtheirpartnersand

friendsinacolony可知，作者引用Baciadonna的話是為了說明企鵝為什么會(huì)出現(xiàn)發(fā)聲的變化。

3（）.Bo理解具體信息。根據(jù)第四段中的Identifyingwhichspeciesdisplayvocalaccommodationcouldprovide

cluesforhowvocallearningevolved可知，此項(xiàng)研究的意義在于了解哪些物種洲有發(fā)聲調(diào)節(jié)能力,有助于人類

更好地研究發(fā)聲學(xué)習(xí)的進(jìn)化。

31.Ao推斷。根據(jù)Ortiz在最后一段中說的Therecouldbeahugevarietyofdifferentspecies...butwedon'tknow

IhaIyel和IlSeemSfUrlherreSearChiSnceded可知，OlliZ覺得有發(fā)聲調(diào)節(jié)能力的物種可能很多，只是我們目

前還不知道，看來還需要進(jìn)一步的研究。山此可推斷QriZ建議研究人員收集其他物種的粗關(guān)證據(jù)。

主題語境:人與社會(huì)-本文是說明文。文章通過介紹SherifBaioumy的餐車營(yíng)生表明街邊攤販?zhǔn)且蛔鞘絮r

活的見證。

32.Do理解具體信息。根據(jù)第二段中的信facttheyplayavitalrole—notjustbyfeedingpeople,butasliving

recordsoftheircitiesnchanginghabitsandpopulation網(wǎng)知,街邊攤販的重要性不僅在于他們?yōu)槿藗兲峁┝耸?/p>

物，還體現(xiàn)在他們見證著一座城市生活習(xí)慣的變化和人口的變遷，是一個(gè)地方的過去和現(xiàn)在的見證者。

33.Co推斷。根據(jù)第三段中的CallingMrBaioumyfriendlyislikecallingwaterdamp;heischeerfulandwarm,

whetherfist-bumpingwithhisregularsorattractingpassers-byUJ推知Baioumy的友好令其備受順客們歡迎。

34.Bo推斷。倒數(shù)第二段首句表明，這些潔真食品車（halalcarts是新生事物,在這之前人們的街頭午餐選擇是

希臘的Souvlaki《烤肉串）,但是隨著希臘移民的減少以及希臘攤販的老齡化（immigrationfromGireeceslowed

andGreekvendorsaged）7臘美食隨之減少，這才催生了清真食品車

的興起。35.B0推斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的Intime,thechickenandlambthatMrBaioumysellsmayseemas

UnremarkabIyAmericanashotdogs和Butasfooddevelops.NewYork'sfoodcartsservethesamefunction:

offeringaquickmealandfriendlygreetingtoacityforeverinahurry可知，Baioumy的小吃以后雖然會(huì)變得像

熱狗一樣平淡無奇，但是隨著食物的演變,紐約的小吃推車會(huì)扮演同樣的功能一一為多匆忙忙的紐約人提供

一頓快餐的同時(shí),也捎去了一句問候由此可推斷，BaiOUmy的小吃將會(huì)成為紐約這座城市的一部分。

主題語境:人與自我-做事本文是說明文，求職面試時(shí)該如何做自我介紹呢？

36.Ao根據(jù)設(shè)空處前的You11haveanopportunitytointroduceyourselffstartaninterviewwithanopen-ended

question網(wǎng)知，此處是剛開始面試時(shí)的情形，因此A項(xiàng)符合語境。B項(xiàng)不符合StartarlinIerVieW的語境。

37.Do根據(jù)設(shè)空處后的enableyoutomeetitsrequirements可則，D頂中的analyzethejobbeforetheinterview

與之呼應(yīng)，只有面試前好好分析工作的相關(guān)情況，才能在面試時(shí)談?wù)摿钭约耗軌驖M足其要求的相關(guān)內(nèi)容，

38.Fo根據(jù)小標(biāo)恩Keepyourintroductionshort和設(shè)空處前的Yourintroductionshouldbeconciseenough可

炯，此處強(qiáng)調(diào)介紹應(yīng)該簡(jiǎn)短下項(xiàng)中的aquickbrief、bestqualificationsenough與之呼應(yīng)

39.Go設(shè)空處上一句提到“你最初的發(fā)言應(yīng)該表明你對(duì)該工作和機(jī)構(gòu)的熱情”，下一句提到“面試官時(shí)間

有限,所以你的介紹要簡(jiǎn)短，這樣才會(huì)推進(jìn)到下一個(gè)階段的問題”,這兩句中間缺少一個(gè)承上啟下的句子;G項(xiàng)

與上一句構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折,引出下一句內(nèi)容,符合語境。

40.Co根據(jù)接下來的兩段內(nèi)容可知，此部分主要談?wù)摗懊嬖嚬贂?huì)提出更多的問題，你要準(zhǔn)備好提供具體的事

主題語境:人與自我-生活與學(xué)習(xí)

本文是說明文。文章說明了表們的記憶會(huì)IH錯(cuò)并指出了這種機(jī)制的利弊。

41.Co前兩句是對(duì)比關(guān)系:人類的記憶力非常強(qiáng)，但也有把事情記錯(cuò)的習(xí)慣。注phenomenaIly意為“出眾地,

非凡地

42.A.根據(jù)Ihada.vividmemory>Inhermemory和donesomethingcompletelydifferenttochooseNate'sname

可劉，作者和妻子當(dāng)時(shí)正在討論他們是如何選出小兒子的名字的。

43.Dt,44.C。根據(jù)because.…oneWebothIoVed可知,作者記得他們夫委倆是在發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)他倆都喜歡的名寧

后就不再選

45.Bo46.C.根據(jù)justalew和gonebackandchosenonefromthemiddleofthelist可知，妻子不同意作者的說

法。在她的記憶中，他們列了個(gè)長(zhǎng)得多的名單，全部看完后從名單的中間選了一個(gè)。

47.Ao48.D.根據(jù)thepieceofpaperwe'dused、andfoundthat和donesomethingcompletelydifferentR∣?l,

他們找出了那張使用過的紙，然后發(fā)現(xiàn)他們實(shí)際上在取名字時(shí)微了完全不同的事。dig。Ut童為“找出，發(fā)現(xiàn)

(藏著的或被遺忘的東西)

49.B.根據(jù)andsimilarbitsofinformationcanOVerEPinourbrains可知，記憶常常通過取想工作，相似的信息

會(huì)在我們頭腦中重受。

50.Aobut后需要一個(gè)與IOgiCal形成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的詞，故選UntrUe。untrue與下句中的Wrong構(gòu)成詞匯的同義

復(fù)現(xiàn)。

51.C,根據(jù)wemakeitstronger可知,每當(dāng)我們喚起某段記憶的時(shí)候，這段記憶會(huì)變得更深刻，

52.A(>根據(jù)上段中提到的記憶會(huì)出錯(cuò)和本段中的goodnews...helpustofindinformation可知,有時(shí)導(dǎo)致

錯(cuò)誤的聯(lián)想也可能幫助我們找到信息。

53.D<,54.Bo根據(jù)helpustofindinformationtrythinkingofthingsyouassociatewiththem和seeifyourbrain

gets...itneeds可知，當(dāng)你想不起某人的名字時(shí)，試著想與那個(gè)人有關(guān)的事情，然后看看你的大腦是否得到

了它需要的提示。

55.Co根據(jù)process:mind-blowinglypowerfulandalsoopentomistakes可知，記憶是個(gè)創(chuàng)造性的過程:強(qiáng)大得

令人難以置信但也容易出錯(cuò)。
