解析：［解析］推理題。題目問(wèn)哪一天的天氣適合去野餐?顯然野餐最好是在晴天。據(jù)天氣預(yù)報(bào)，Sunday

當(dāng)天為晴天，午間有云。由此可推知正確答案是C選項(xiàng)。

解析：［解析］詞匯推斷題。由預(yù)報(bào)可知，Monday當(dāng)天會(huì)有雷陣雨，據(jù)此可推測(cè)，降雨概率為80%所以

正確答案是D選項(xiàng)。

C.

D.J

解析：［解析］理解題目。根據(jù)預(yù)報(bào)，Tuesday當(dāng)日為大風(fēng)伴隨雷陣雨，北部地區(qū)可能有暴雨。據(jù)此可

知，當(dāng)天的天氣是很惡劣的，所以正確答案是D選項(xiàng)。

D.

解析：［解析］推斷題目。由預(yù)報(bào)可知，每天的日出時(shí)間越來(lái)越晚，日落時(shí)間越來(lái)越早，就是白晝變短，

黑夜變長(zhǎng)，所以正確答案是B選項(xiàng)。

（5）.Whatdayhasthegreatesttemperaturedifferencebetweendayandnight?

解析：［解析］內(nèi)容理解題目。題目問(wèn)哪天的晝夜溫差最大。由預(yù)報(bào)內(nèi)容可知，Monday當(dāng)天最高為26

度，最低為17度，溫差為9度，高于其余各天的8度溫差值，為最大溫差。所以正確的答案是A選項(xiàng)。

A.

B.

C.

D.

解析：［解析］細(xì)節(jié)題。第一段第一句說(shuō)：Everycountrytendstoacceptitsownwayoflifeas

beingthenormaloneandtopraiseorcriticizeothersastheyaresimilartoordifferent

fromit.每個(gè)國(guó)家都傾向于把自己的生活方式作為標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，對(duì)與自己的生活方式相似的國(guó)家表?yè)P(yáng)，對(duì)與自

真正認(rèn)識(shí)這個(gè)國(guó)家和她的人民。A答案不夠全面，容易干擾考生。

解析：［解析］細(xì)節(jié)題。第二段最后兩句說(shuō)：我們通過(guò)這種方式獲得的信息與我們通過(guò)其他途徑獲得的二

手信息有多大的差別啊!我們經(jīng)常發(fā)現(xiàn)原以為與我們很不一樣的外國(guó)人實(shí)際上卻和我們差不多!可見(jiàn)，一個(gè)

人在旅游之前掌握的信息與旅游之后了解的實(shí)際情況有很大出入。A答案不夠全面。

(4).Differencesbetweenpeoples.

A.willgraduallydisappearbecauseofeaseoftravel

解析：［解析］邏輯推理題。第三段的頭兩句提到:Differencesbetweenpeoplesdo,ofcourse,

existand,onehopes,willalwayscontinuetodoso.Theworldwillbeadullplaceindeed

whenallthedifferentnationalitiesbehaveexactlyalike,andpeoplemightsaythatweare

rapidlyapproachingthisstateofaffairs.民族之間的差別的確存在.而且人們希望這種狀況能夠

持續(xù)。如果有一天，世界各國(guó)都同化得差不多了，那么這個(gè)世界就毫無(wú)樂(lè)趣了。有人說(shuō)這種現(xiàn)象有加快的

趨勢(shì)。

解析：［解析］邏輯推理題。作者在第一段連續(xù)問(wèn)了三個(gè)問(wèn)題：什么是撒謊?說(shuō)假話(huà)就是撒謊嗎?或者說(shuō)撒

謊不僅僅是說(shuō)假話(huà)?然后舉例，你不想借錢(qián)給一位朋友，又怕傷害他的感情，于是你撒謊了，這樣也是撒

謊嗎?可見(jiàn)，作者認(rèn)為，有時(shí)候?yàn)榱瞬粋λ说母星?，撒謊是有必要的。

(2).InParagraph2,“womenarebetterliarsthanmen〃probablymeans.

解析：［解析］語(yǔ)義題。此句話(huà)中的better肯定是與男性相比后得出的結(jié)論。所以在對(duì)比男女撒謊的情況

后我們發(fā)現(xiàn)：女性撒謊是為了不傷害別人的感情，男性則是要從中得到好處，可見(jiàn)女性撒謊多是出于善

D.aliethatoftenhasanevilpurpose（分?jǐn)?shù)：2.00）

A.

B.V

C.

D.

解析：［解析］細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)作者在whitelie后舉的例子：whenawomanatapartytellsan—other

womanthatshelikesherdresswhenshereallythinksitlooksterrible.我們可以猜測(cè)while

lie指的是善意的謊言。

當(dāng)人們?nèi)鲋e時(shí)，在一些細(xì)微的不重要的方面會(huì)發(fā)生行為變化。只有B符合題意。

C.

D.J

解析：［解析］細(xì)節(jié)題目。文章首句提到，F(xiàn)irefightersareoftenaskedtospeaktocommunity

abouttheimportanceoffiresafety,particularlyfirepreventionanddetection.可知消防員

要告訴居民防火知識(shí)。根據(jù)句子意思推出正確答案是D選項(xiàng)。

D.

解析：［解析］細(xì)節(jié)理解題目。文章第一段第二句提到，煙霧感應(yīng)器在火災(zāi)中可以降低一半的死亡率。而

A項(xiàng)survivingafire的意思是在火災(zāi)中存活，二者的意思是一致的。所以正確的答案是A選項(xiàng)。

(3).Asmokedetectormustalwaysbeplaced.

A.onanylevelofahome

C.inallhallwaysofahome

D.inkitchenswherefiresaremostlikelytostart(分?jǐn)?shù)：2.00)

A.

B.V

C.

D.

解析：［解析］推理題。文章第二段提到，theremustbeadetectoroutsideeachsleepingarea.意

思是臥室外要安裝煙感，這里的each和B選項(xiàng)中的all是一個(gè)意思。據(jù)此可以推出正確答案是B選項(xiàng)。

(4).Thepassageimpliesthatdead-airspaceismostlikelytobefound.

A.

B.

C.V

D.

解析：［解析］推理題。文章第三段提到，火災(zāi)時(shí)熱空氣到達(dá)不了閉塞空氣區(qū)域，煙感的安裝位置要么在

距離墻壁4英寸的天花板處，要么在墻壁高處，但距離天花板的距離最少得4英寸，最多不超過(guò)12英

寸。由此不難推知墻體和天花板交界處容易閉塞空氣，故正確答案是C選項(xiàng)。

(5).Whatisthefocusofthispassage?

A.Howfirefighterscarryouttheirresponsibi1ities.

B.Theproperinstallationofhomesmokedetectors.

C.Thedetectionofdead-airspaceonwallsandceilings.

A.

B.V

C.

D.

解析：［解析］主旨題。文章主要介紹了安裝煙感的必要性、安裝的位置以及安裝中需要注意的問(wèn)題，據(jù)

此可知正確答案是B選項(xiàng)。

A.

B.

C.

D.J

解析：［解析］細(xì)節(jié)題。答案在第一段：theoriginoflanguageisamystery,因此語(yǔ)言的起源仍然是

個(gè)謎，還沒(méi)有得到解決。

A.

B.

C.J

D.

解析：［解析］細(xì)節(jié)題。第一段談到人類(lèi)起初用某種聲音進(jìn)行交流，后來(lái)又有了字母，字母結(jié)合起來(lái)可以

代表聲音，也可以寫(xiě)下來(lái)。因此，這些說(shuō)出來(lái)的聲音也好，用字母寫(xiě)出來(lái)的聲音也好.被稱(chēng)為單詞。所以

B是正確答案：?jiǎn)卧~既可以代表聲音，也可以代表字母。

看。可見(jiàn)，當(dāng)時(shí)Pepys正在睡覺(jué)。

A.tobewearingB.tobepushing

A.

B.

C.

D.J

解析：［解析］詞匯題。Pepysslippedonhisdressinggownandwenttothewindowtowatch

it.根據(jù)上題我們知道，當(dāng)時(shí)Pepys正在唾覺(jué)，妻子叫醒他后，他才slippedon他的睡袍，走到窗戶(hù)邊

去看。因此slippedon的意思肯定與“穿”有關(guān)，首先就可排除B和C。其次分析A和D,A意為“穿

著“，表狀態(tài)；D意為“穿上”，表動(dòng)作?？纱_定D為正確答案。

解析：［解析］邏輯推理題。文章最后一段提到：thebaker'shousehadcaughtfirefromtheover-

heatedovenandthentheflameshadquicklyspreadtotheotherhousesinthenarrowlane.C

和D文章并未提及，A最具干擾性。A應(yīng)該是起火的原因，并不是本題問(wèn)的大火迅速蔓延的原因。真正的

原因應(yīng)該是B,這房子之間的足巨離很小。
