阿拉斯加原住民使用，沿途也可以到達(dá)以下地點：McHughCreek（112英里）、Rainbow（108英里）和Windy（107

[22題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章IditarodNationalHistoricTrail中的“PutupatentatEchoBend（Mile3）,orrentoneof

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇記敘文。介紹了美國印第安人吉姆?索普坎坷的人生經(jīng)歷和他作為運(yùn)動員所取得的驕

人成績。

【24題詳解】

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)第二段“ThorpewasanAmericanIndianfromOklahomawhodevelopedhisextraordinary

athleticskillsinhisyouththroughhardlabor.Ilwasalsoinhisyouththathelearnedtoendurehardshipbrought

uponbyracialprejudice.Manywouldsayhischildhoodwasnoteasy.Hegrewuppoorandatage9histwin

brotherpassedawayandafewyearslaterhelostbothofhisparents.^^（索普是來自俄克拉荷馬州的美洲印第安

人，他在年輕時通過艱苦勞動發(fā)展了非凡的運(yùn)動技能。也正是在他年輕的時候，他學(xué)會了忍受種族偏見帶

來的苦難。許多人會說他的童年并不容易。他出身貧寒，9歲時雙胞胎兄弟去世，幾年后他失去了雙親。）

可知，吉姆?索普經(jīng)歷了很多苦難，幼年時雙胞胎兄弟過世，隨后父母雙亡，青年時又困擾于種族偏見帶來的

磨難：以及劃線句前面的yet表轉(zhuǎn)折意義,可知,劃線部分的意思是雖然索普后來有所成就，但卻經(jīng)歷了很多

苦難。故選D。

[25題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的“Theshoesweretwodifferentsizes.Heworeanextrapairofsocksononefootto

eventhemout."（鞋子有兩個不同的尺寸，他一只腳上多穿了一雙襪子來平衡。）可知，兩只鞋大小不一，

因此索普多穿襪子就是為了讓鞋合腳。故選B。

【26題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的"becausehehadnevercompetedinthateventbefore"（因為他以前從未參加過那

個項目）可知，他沒有參加過標(biāo)槍比賽，因此比賽經(jīng)驗不足最可能是他失利的原因。故選C。

[27題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的敘述可知，吉姆?索普成長過程中經(jīng)歷過很多苦難，這很大程度上塑造了他堅

韌不拔的性格。第三段的“Butthatdidnotstophimfromdoingwhathelovedandpursuinghisdreams.Nothing

seemedtoslophim,notevenstolenshoes."（但這并沒有阻止他去做他喜歡的事情，去追求他的夢想。似乎沒

有什么能阻止他，甚至是偷來的鞋子。）正是對他堅韌不拔性格的刻畫，由此可知,tough（堅韌的）和

strong-minded（意志堅定的）是對他最準(zhǔn)確的描述。故選Co

【答案】28.B29.D30.B31.D

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】本文是說明文。我們現(xiàn)在所食用的多種植物都是從遠(yuǎn)古時期就存在的野生植物嫁接或育種而來。

然而，這些植物的“野生遠(yuǎn)親”現(xiàn)在卻被人們棄之如草芥，沒有得到應(yīng)有的保護(hù)和尊重。研究人員認(rèn)為，

這些野生植物在幫助我們現(xiàn)存的植物應(yīng)對氣候變化、病蟲害及棲息地喪失方面可以發(fā)揮巨大的作用，我們

應(yīng)該對其加大保護(hù)力度。

【28題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段的aHundredsofnativeNorthAmericanplants,oftendismissedasweeds,deservealot

morerespect,accordingtoanewstudy.Theseplants,distantcousinsoffoodslikesunflowersandlettuce,actually

representabotanicaltreasurenowfacingincreasedthreatsfromclimatechangeandhabitatloss.（根據(jù)一*項新的研

究，數(shù)百種北美本土植物，通常被認(rèn)為是雜草，應(yīng)該得到更多的尊重。這些植物是向日葵和生菜等食物的

遠(yuǎn)親，實際上是一種面臨氣候變化和棲息地喪失日益嚴(yán)重威脅的植物瑰寶。）”可知，這項新研究主要關(guān)注

的是糧食作物的野生親緣。故選B。

【29題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的"Soplantgrowerscrossbreditwithcommercialsunflowersandcreatednew

varietiesthatcangrowinplaceswherethesoilcontainsmoresalt.（因此，植物種植者將它與商業(yè)向日葵雜交，創(chuàng)

造出可以在土壤含鹽更多的地方生長的新品種。）"可知，"theparadoxicalsunflower”與商用向日葵雜交產(chǎn)

生的向日葵可適應(yīng)含鹽高的土壤。故選D。

【30題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的"Khouryandsomeofhiscolleaguesjustfinishedasurveyofabout600wildcrop

relativesthatgrowinNorthAmerica,andtheyfoundthatmostoftheseplantsarethreatenedbythingslikefires,

fanninganddevelopment.（庫里和他的一些同事剛剛完成了一項對大約600種生長在北美的野生作物親屬的

調(diào)查，他們發(fā)現(xiàn)這些植物中的大多數(shù)都受到火災(zāi)、農(nóng)業(yè)和開發(fā)等因素的威脅。）”可知，科學(xué)家們對約600

種野生植物進(jìn)行了調(diào)研后發(fā)現(xiàn)，其中絕大多數(shù)的生存狀況不容樂觀，受到了諸如火災(zāi)、農(nóng)耕及社會發(fā)展的

威脅。由此可推知，科學(xué)家們對其發(fā)現(xiàn)會感到擔(dān)憂。故選B。

【31題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的"Inmanycases,theplantsalreadyaregrowingonpubliclandthat'smanagedbythe

U.S.ForestService（USFS）ortheBureauofLandManagement（BLM）.（在許多情況下，這些植物已經(jīng)生長在由

美國林務(wù)局（USFS）或土地管理局（BLM）管理的公共土地上。）"和“It'smoreaboutjustbeingawarethatthese

plantsactuallyexist（更重要的是要意識到這些植物確實存在）”可推知，Khoury可能會建議美國內(nèi)政部土地

管理局去了解其管轄范圍內(nèi)的植物，從而保護(hù)這些野生植物。故選D。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的第二句"Researchersfoundthatparticipantswhotookawewalksshoweda'smallself,

inthattheyfilledlessoftheirphotographswiththeirownimageandmorewiththebackgroundscenery.（研究人員

發(fā)現(xiàn)，敬畏地散步的參與者表現(xiàn)出一種“小我”，因為他們用自己的圖像填充的照片較少，而更多地用背景

風(fēng)景填充。）”和倒數(shù)第三句"Theirsmilesalsogrewbroaderbytheendofthestudy.（研究結(jié)束時，他們的笑容

也變得更加燦爛。）”可知，敬畏步行組的自拍照中，自己的身體只占一小部分，而且面帶燦爛的微笑。所

以他們的自拍照中，可能顯示的是小身形，但是面帶燦爛微笑。故選D項。

【34題詳解】

推理判斷題。最后一段的最后兩句"Butwalkingmoredidn'tresultinpositivechangesinemotionalhealthorin

thewaytheirselfiesweretaken.Thissuggeststhattheresultsweremainlyduetoexperiencingawe,andnotjustin

spendingtimeexercising」但是多走路并不會對情緒健康或者自拍方式產(chǎn)生積極的影響。這表明，結(jié)果主要是

由于體驗敬畏，而不只是在花時間鍛煉。）”提到積極健康情緒產(chǎn)生于心懷敬畏，而非只是簡單地花時間鍛

煉。由此可知，作者在最后一段想傳達(dá)的是，心懷敬畏才是真正產(chǎn)生影響的。故選A項。

【35題詳解】

主旨大意題。結(jié)合全文，文章主要介紹一項有關(guān)awewalk（敬畏步行）的研究，尤其是根據(jù)第一段的“Anew

researchpublishedinthejournalEmotion,foundthatolderadultswhotook'awewalks,feltmorepositiveemotions

intheirdailylives.（發(fā)表在《情感》雜志上的一項新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，那些“敬畏步行”的老年人在日常生活中感受

到更多的積極情緒。）”和最后一段uParticipantsinthecontrolgrouptookmorefrequentwalksthanthosepeople

intheawegroup,theresearchersdiscovered.Butwalkingmoredidn'tresultinpositivechange:inemotionalhealth

orinthewaytheirselfiesweretaken.Thissuggeststhattheresultsweremainlyduetoexperiencingawe,andnot

justinspendingtimeexercising.（研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，控制組的參與者比敬畏組的參與者更頻繁地散步。但是多走

路并不會對情緒健康或者自拍方式產(chǎn)生積極的影響。這表明，結(jié)果主要是由于體驗敬畏，而不只是在花時

間鍛煉。）”可知，敬畏步行有利于促進(jìn)積極健康情緒。所以C項“敬畏步行能促進(jìn)積極的情緒”最適合作

為本文標(biāo)題。故選C項。

第二節(jié)（共5小題;每小題分，滿分分）
