26.WhatdoweknowaboutTom?

A..Hewasseriouslyill

B.Hewasadishonestboy.

C.Hewascrazyaboutmagic

D.HewasDr.Epstein'spatient

解析：Tom為關(guān)鍵詞，查找全文。

A細(xì)節(jié)題。由第一段最后一句Hecamethroughseveraloperationsandalotof

pain可知，他病得很嚴(yán)重，故選。選項B（他是一個不誠實的孩子）和選項C（他對魔術(shù)著了

迷）都是無中生有;由第一段第三句FredEpstein,inhisbookIfIMakeIttoFive,tells

astoryheheardfromoneofhisfriendsaboutTom可知，有關(guān)Tom的事情是Dr.

Epstein從他的一個朋友那里聽來的，因此可排除選項D（他是Dr.Epstein的病人）。

27.WhatcanbeinferredaboutTom'smother?

A..Shewasarichlady

B.SherefusedTom'srequest

C.ShewantedTomtobeasuperhero

D.ShewantedtogetTomthroughthepain

解析：D推斷題。由第三段第三四句Hearingthis,themotherhesitatedfora

while.Shehadavoidedbuyingtheexpensivecostume（戲裝），finally

sheagreed.可知，她并不富有，但最終還是同意了Tom的請求，為他購買昂貴的戲裝，由

此推斷,她是希望Tom能度過痛苦關(guān)。由hadavoidedbuyingtheexpensivecostume可

排除選項A；由finallysheagreed可排除選項B；她同意為他購買昂貴的戲裝其目的不是

希望他真正成為超人，故排除選項C。

28.WhenTomwentforthethirdoperation,he.

A.pretendedtobepainful

B.actedlikeasuperhero

C.appearedinpoorspirits

D.arguedwithhismother

解析：B細(xì)節(jié)題。由第四段第一句TomappearedasthepowerfulSuperman,showing

offthroughthehospitalhallsandcoollywavinghishandtothepeoplegreeting

himalongtheway可知,他的行為就像是一個超人。

29.1nthelastparagraph,youareadvised.

A.togothroughsomedifficulttests

B.towakeupfromyourwilddreams

C.tobecomeapowerfulpersoninyourmind

D.towearexpensiveclothesforjobinterviews

解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。由最后一段的第一句可排除選項D；選項A（經(jīng)歷一些困難的測試）和B（從不

羈夢中醒來）含文中的一些字眼，其實是斷章取義；由第三句Becomethepersonyouneed

tobecometowinoveryourchallengeanddoitinyourmindfirst可知，選項C（要

成為一個內(nèi)心強(qiáng)大的人）正確。

3O.Whatisthepurposeofthepassage?

A.Totellusaninterestingstory.

B.Tohelpusmakerightdecisions.

C.Toadviseustocareaboutchildren.

D.Toencourageustouseourimagination.

解析：D目的題。由文章首句Imaginationandfantasycanplayanimportantrolein

achievingthethingswefear.可全文末句So,letyourimaginationrunwild,anddare

todream可知，作者寫這篇文章的目的是鼓勵我們運(yùn)用我們的想象力。

B

31.Paragraph1mainlytalksabout.

A.thereasonsforsuccess

B.themeaningofsuccess

C.thestandardsofsuccess

D.theimportanceofsuccess

解析：A段意歸納題。文中的“運(yùn)氣”“天賦”“家庭環(huán)境”等都是指成功的條件或理由，故

選A。本段中并沒有講什么是成功，排除選項B（成功的含義）和C（成功的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)）；也沒講成

功對人生有哪些重要性，也容易排除選項D。

32.InParagraph2,theunderlinedwordthatrefersto.

A.beinggoodatsomething

B.settingapracticalgoal

C.puttinginmoretime

0.succeedinginlife

解析:B代詞指代題。代詞是意義銜接的手段之一，此處的代詞that替代前句中的setagoal

andthengraduallymakeitmorepractical,故選B。

33.Successfulpeoplesuggestdoingwhatonelovesbecause.

A.workmakesonefeelpain

B.onetendstoenjoyhiswork

C.onegivesuphisworkeasily

D.ittakesalotoftimetosucceed

解析：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。題眼出現(xiàn)在第三段第,句Thisisabigreasonwhymanysuccessful

peopleadviseyoutodosomethingyoulove.但其中的this就是指代上文的內(nèi)容,即第

二段的第后兩句話的內(nèi)容oneneedstospendatleast10,000hoursstudyingand

practicing.Tobecomegreatatcertainthings,it'11requireevenmoretime,time

thatmostpeoplewon'tputin,這兩句就告訴我們，要成功需要花費大量的時間。

34.WhatcanweinferfromParagraph4?

A.Successfulpeopleliketoshowtheirgreatskills.

B.Peoplesometimessucceedwithoutluckortalent.

C.Peopleneedtoachievesuccessatthecostoflife.

D.Ithelpstothinkthatluckortalentleadstosuccess.

解析：C推理判斷題。由第一句theyhaveputinahugepartoftheirlifeto

getthereatahugecost可推知。

35.Whatisthemainthemeofthepassage?

A.Havingagoalisvitaltosuccess.

B.Beinggoodisdifferentfrombeinggreat.

C.Onecannotsucceedwithouttimeandpractice.

D.Luck,talentandfamilyhelptoachievesuccess.

解析：C主旨?xì)w納題。由第二段開頭的However可知，本文的中心論題不是第一段而在第二

段tosucceedinlife,onefirstneedsto…needsto…，再結(jié)合最后一段第一句ifyou

wanttobecomegreatatit,youneedtoworkdayinanddayout,almosttothe

pointofaddiction,andoveralongperiodoftime,可知本文的主題思想是不花時間

和實踐是不可能取得成功的。

36.Whenhefirstmettheauthor,David.

A.feltalittleexcited

B.walkedenergetically

C.lookedalittlenervous

D.showedupwithhisteacher

解析：C推理判斷題。因David失去了家人，怎么可能興奮呢？可排除選項A；由Hekept

walkingupanddownrestlessly,hisfacepale,andhishandsshakingslightly（Itll

煩躁地地走來走去，面色蒼白，雙手在微微地顫抖）可推斷，他進(jìn)來時有點緊張，故選C,

在這種情況下他不可能是“精神抖擻地走進(jìn)來”，文中也沒有相應(yīng)的信息說明這一點，可排

除選項B；由Hisheadteacherhadreferredhimtome中的時態(tài)可知,老師將David的

情況告訴作者是在David進(jìn)來之前，且由hewrote可知，是老師寫的字條而不是親自來了，

故排除選項Do

37.Asapsychologist,theauthor.

A.wasreadytolistentoDavid

B.wasskepticalaboutpsychology

C.wasabletodescribeDavid'sproblem

D.wassureofhandlingDavid'sproblem

解析：A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段HowcouldIhelphim?Thereareproblemspsychology

doesn,thavetheanswerto,andwhichnowordscandescribe（我應(yīng)如何來幫助他呢?

這些是在心理學(xué)上沒有答案的難題；也是用語言無法描述的難題）可排除選項D（有把握處理

David的問題）和C（能夠描述David的問題）；選項B只是使用了文中psychology這個詞，

其實文中根本沒有表明“作者懷疑心理學(xué)”的信息，只是說明心理學(xué)上沒有處理David這類

問題的現(xiàn)存答案，故排除B；由第二段最后一句Sometimesthebestthingonecandois

tolistenopenlyandsympathetically可知,選A,作者打算傾聽David。

38.Davidenjoyedbeingwiththeauthorbecausehe.

A.wantedtoasktheauthorforadvice

B-needtosharesorrowwiththeauthor

C.likedthechildren?sdrawingsintheoffice

D.beartheauthormanytimesinthechessgame

解析：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第四段告訴我們David喜歡跟作者在一起，第五段中作者的推測

Perhapshesimplyneedssomeonetosharehispainwith.PerhapshesensesthatI

respecthissuffering可知，選B。

39.WhatcanbeinferredaboutDavid?

A.Herecoveredaftermonthsoftreatment.

B.Helikedbikingbeforehelosthisfamily.

C.Hewentintouniversitysoonafterstartingtotalk.

D.Hegotfriendsinschoolbeforehemettheauthor.

解析:A推理判斷題。從第六、七、八段的敘述，即從Somemonthslater至Nowhehadreally

startedtolivehisownlife可以推斷，David恢復(fù)了，故選A。選項B和D若正確，就

會有朋友同David分擔(dān)悲傷了，也就沒有必要來同作者下棋了，故也可排除。

40.WhatmadeDavidchange?

A.Histeacher'shelp.

B.Theauthor'sfriendship.

C.Hisexchangeofletterswiththeauthor.

D.Theauthor'ssilentcommunicationwithhim.

解析：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的AfterthatheplayedchesswithmeeveryWednesday

afternoon一incompletesilenceandwithoutlookingatme和最后一段第二句ButIalso

learnedthatone—withoutanywords一canreachouttoanotherperson可知，選I）,

是作者同David的無聲交流改變了Davido

41.WhywasJenniferwatchedinannoyingexam?

A.Tocorrecthertypingmistakes.

B.Tofindhersecretsintheroom.

Ctopreventherformslowingdown.

D.Tokeepherfromdishonestbehaviors.

解析：D推理判斷題。由第三段第一句Inthebattleagainstcheating可知，前面兩段

對Jennifer在家考試中受監(jiān)控器的監(jiān)控的具體描述是為了防止他作弊。

42.TheunderlinedexpressioncuttingedgeinParagraph3isclosestinmeaningto.

A.advancedtechnique

B.sharpeningtool

C.effectiverule

D.dividingline

解析：A詞義推斷題。由第二段的具體描述來看，這是防止作弊的先進(jìn)技術(shù)，另外，也可以

從第五段的第一句中的otherhigh-tichmethods（另外的高科技方法）得到啟示，要選A。

其他選項“磨銳刀具”“有效的規(guī)則”“分界線”都不合語境。

43.Forinternetuniversities,examsanddiplomaswillbevalidif.

A.theycanattractpotentialstudents

B.theycandefeatacademiccheating

C.theyofferstudentsonlinehelp

D.theyoffermanyonlinecourses

解析：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段最后一句Onlywithsolidmeasuresagainstcheating,

expertssay,canInternetuniversitiesshowthattheirexamsanddiplomasarevalid

可知，只有有了打擊作弊的強(qiáng)有力的措施，網(wǎng)絡(luò)大學(xué)才能表明他們的考試和文憑是有效的。

44.Someprogramscanfindoutpossiblecheatersby.

A.checkingthequestionansweringspeed

B.producingalargenumberofquestion

C.scanningtheInternettestquestion

D.givingdifficulttestquestion

解析：A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后一段第二句recognizepossiblecheatersbyanalyzing

whetherdifficulttestquestionsareansweredatthesamespeedaseasyones可

知，是通過分析答題的速度來判斷是否作弊，故選A。

45.Whichofthefollowingisthebesttitleofthispassage?

A.TheAdvantagesofOnlineExams

B.TheHigh-techMethodsinOnlineCourses

C.TheFightagainstCheatinginOnlineEducation

D.TheWaragainsttheBoomingofOnlineEducation

解析：主旨大意題。選項A（在線考試的優(yōu)點）文中無此內(nèi)容，應(yīng)排除；選項B（在線課程的高

科技方法），文中只提到防止作弊的高科技方法，B的范圍過大，應(yīng)排除；選項D（反對網(wǎng)絡(luò)

教育蓬勃發(fā)展的戰(zhàn)爭）與短文內(nèi)不符，應(yīng)排除；全文都是介紹打擊網(wǎng)上教育的作弊，故選C。

解析：B

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段最后兩句可知，特別是ucaresaboutmeandwishesmeweir,

可知選擇wishestheauthoragoodday

27.WhatdoestheunderlinedsentenceinParagraph2mean?

A.Thesalesgirlisrude.

B.Thesalesgrilisbored.

C.Thesalesgirlcaresaboutme.

D.Thesalesgirlsaysthewordsasaroutine.

28.Bysaying“Haveaniceday,“astrangermay.

A.trytobepolitetoyou

B.expressrespecttoyou

C.givehisblesingtoyou

D.sharehispleasurewithyou

解析：A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第四段可知，特別是“hastriedtobenicetoyou”最為明顯。

29.Accordingtothelastparagraph,peoplesay“Haveaniceday”.

A.sincerely

B.asthanks

C.asahabit

D.encouragingly

解析：C深層理解題。由第一句（特別是custom一詞）和最后一段的最后兩句（Whilethe

expressionmaynotoftenbesincere,itisalwaysspoken.Thepointisthatpeoplesayitallthetime

whentheylike.）可知，人們常說“Haveaniceday”已成為一種習(xí)慣了。

3O.Whatisthebesttitleofthepassage?

A.HaveaNiceDay-aSocialCuston

B.HaveaNiceDay—aPleasantGesture

C.HaveaNiceDay一aHeart-warmingGreeting

D.HaveaNiceDay一aPoliteEndingofaConversation

B

31.AccordingtoParagraph2,onereasonwhyababycriesisthatitfeels.

A.sickB.upsetC.sleepyD.hungry

解析：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段最后一句<4Thebabyasksforattentionbycryingandsearching

forfoodwithitsmouth”可知。孩子哭，是因為低血糖引發(fā)的，而低血糖實際上就是沒仃吃飽，

所以孩子哭的話，就是為了得到食物。這也和文章整體的意思相一致。

32.WhatdoestheauthorthinkaboutDrKing?

A.Heisstrict

B.Heisunkind

C.Hehasthewrongidea.

D.Hesetsatimetableformothers

解析:C推理判斷題。由第三段第三句I'veneverheardanythingsoridiculous(荒謬可笑的)

以及本文最后一句可知。

33.Thewordcopper-bottomedinParagraph4isclosestinmeaningto.

A.basicB.reliableC.surprisingD.interesting

解析：B詞義猜測題。由第四段的具體描述可知。

34.Whatdoestheresearchtellusaboutfeelingababyondemand?

A.Thebabywillsleepwell.

B.Thebabywillhaveitsbrainharmed.

C.Thebabywillhavealowbloodsugarlevel.

D.Thebabywillgrowtobewiserbytheageof8.

解析：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第四段第三句"Bytheageof8,theirIQ(智商)scoresarefourtofive

percenthigherthanbabiesfedbyarigidtimetable''可知。

35.Theauthorsupportsfeelingthebaby.

A.inthenight

B.everyfourhours

C.wheneveritwantsfood

□.accordingtoitsbloodsugarlevel

解析：C由本文的第一句(Ihavebeenconsistentlyopposedtofeedingababyregularly)就提出

觀點，“反對定期喂嬰兒”，最后一句(Ihopethisresearchwillputanendtoadvocatingstrictly

timedbabyfeedingpractices)希望結(jié)束主張嚴(yán)格按時喂養(yǎng)的習(xí)慣。既然“不定期”，也就是按嬰

兒需要喂養(yǎng)，故選C。

A.shemightberecognized

B.askingfbrhelplookedsilly

C.shewasnormalandindependent

D.beingfondblindwasembarrassing

解析：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由本文第一句(Iwasblind,butIwasashamedofitifitwasknown.)可知。

37.Afterthegirlgotoffthebusthatevening,she.

A.begantorun

B.hitapersonasusual

C.hitalamppostbyaccident

D.wascaughtbysomething

解析：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段前三句，特別是第三句(Whenithappenedathirdtime,Irealized

Ihadbeenapologizingtoalamppost)uj知。

38.Attherequeststopthatevening,thegirl.

A.stoppedabiglorry

B.stoppedthewrongbus

C.madenoattempttostopthebus

D.wasnotnoticedbyotherpeople

解析：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由題干中的thatevening可知,問的是“那天晚上發(fā)生的事”,即信息

點應(yīng)在第2和4段，因為第3段是講通常的情況而不是當(dāng)晚，所以A和B兩個選項就很容

易排除了。根據(jù)第2段最后一?句Nooneelsewasthere可知，當(dāng)晚只有她一個人在那等車，

都沒有人在身邊，怎么可能被人注意到呢？據(jù)此可排除D"解第4段中的Butbecause]had

givenupstoppingthemforfearofmakingafoolofmyself,Iletthemallgoby.Istoodthere

aloneforhalfanhourwithoutstoppingone.?J特別用的是過去完成時(hadgivenup),可

見她怕攔錯車，出洋相，早就放棄努力自己攔車了，因此當(dāng)晚她并沒有努力去攔車，因此，

選項C正確。
