K答案』CK推理判斷題。通讀第一段可知，F(xiàn)awnSharp在一次直升機(jī)飛

行中意識到氣候變化導(dǎo)致了冰川融化；由此可推知，作者在第一段中提及Fawn

K語篇解讀R本文是議論文。文章圍繞加利福尼亞的大樹從20世紀(jì)30年代以

來大量減少這一主題，探討出這一現(xiàn)象的原因。

28.Whatisthesecondparagraphmainlyabout?

A.Theseriousnessofbig-treelossinCalifornia.

B.TheincreasingvarietyofCaliforniabigtrees.

C.ThedistributionofbigtreesinCaliforniaforests.

D.TheinfluenceoffarmingonbigtreesinCalifornia.

K答案』AK主旨大意題。第二段中通過列舉一系列數(shù)字表明，加利福尼

亞州的大樹減少的嚴(yán)重性，故A項(xiàng)正確。?

29.Whichofthefollowingiswell-intentionedbutmaybebadforbigtrees?

A.Ecologicalstudiesofforests.

B.Banningwoodcutting.

C.Limitinghousingdevelopment.

D.Firecontrolmeasures.

K答案XDK推理判斷題。文章第三段提到了造成加利福尼亞州的大樹減

少的三個(gè)因素：woodcutters,housingdevelopment與aggressivewildfirecontrolo

前兩個(gè)因素直接與大樹的減少有關(guān)，如果能控制住，大樹就不會減少；而第三個(gè)

因素——控制野火的措施使得加利福尼亞州的森林里滿是跟大樹爭奪資源的小

樹，初衷是為了控制野火，這是好的，實(shí)則對大樹不利，故D項(xiàng)正確力

30.WhatisamajorcauseofthewatershortageaccordingtoMcIntyre?

A.Inadequatesnowmelt.B.Alongerdryseason.

C.Awarmerclimate.D.Dampnessoftheair.

K答案XCK細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的“…thebiggestfactorsdriving

upwaterstressinthestatehavebeenrisingtemperatures.??“可知，水資源不足的主要

原因就是氣溫升高，即更加溫暖的氣候，故C項(xiàng)正確力

31.Whatcanbeasuitabletitleforthetext?

A.California'sForests：WhereHaveAlltheBigTreesGone?

B.CuttingofBigTreestoBeProhibitedinCaliforniaSoon

C.WhyAretheBigTreesImportanttoCaliforniaForests?

D.PatrickMcIntyre：GrowMoreBigTreesinCalifornia

K答案』AK標(biāo)題判斷題。本文是一篇調(diào)查報(bào)告，第一段就點(diǎn)出主題：

Californiahaslosthalfitsbigtreessincethe1930s。后面具體分析了力口利福尼亞州

大樹的現(xiàn)狀、造成大樹減少的原因等，故A項(xiàng)作為標(biāo)題最合適/

K語篇解讀U本文是說明文。文章闡述了一項(xiàng)新的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)：與長在森林中的

樹木相比，城市里的樹木長得更快，但死得更早。

32.WhatcanbeknownaboutCO2fromParagraph2?

A.Itisoneofthesideeffectsofgreenhouses.

Bitgreatlyacceleratestheprocessofglobalwarming.

C.Itresultsfromthewidespreadburningoffossilfuels.

D.Itpreventstheearthfrombecomingunsuitabletoliveon.

K答案XDK推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段中的“theearthwouldbefreezingor

burninghotwithoutCO2”可知，如果沒有二氧化碳，地球?qū)O冷或極熱。由此

可以推斷，二氧化碳可以防止地球變得不適合居住?！?/p>

D.Toassessthecarbonamountsinthem.

K答案UAK細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段中的"Tofigureouthowquickly

的直徑是為了了解樹木的生長速度?！?/p>

34.Whatadvantagedocitytreeshaveoverforesttrees?

A.Theyaremorelikelytoaccessgrowthpromoters.

B.Theycanenjoymorewatercomingfromtheair.

C.Theycanenjoymoreshadefromneighbors.

D.Theyarebetteratcompetingforlight.

K答案』AK推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段內(nèi)容可知，與生長在森林中

的樹木相比，城市里的樹木長得更快是因?yàn)樗鼈儫o需與鄰近的樹木爭奪光照，也

能得到更多的氮量，還更容易得到水。由此可以推斷，城市里的樹木比森林中的

樹木更可能獲得生長促進(jìn)劑力

35.Whatwillprobablybetalkedaboutifthepassageiscontinued?

A.Howurbantreescanlivelonger.

B.Whycitylivingmakestreesdieyoung.

C.Howtreesrespondtodrysoilconditions.

D.Whyfaster-growingtreesabsorbmoreCO2.

K答案UBK推理判斷題。文章首句就提到了一項(xiàng)新的研究結(jié)果：城市里

的樹木比森林中的樹木長得更快，但死得更早。文章最后一段介紹了城市里的樹

木比森林中的樹木生長得更快的幾個(gè)原因。由此可以推斷，文章接下來很可能就

要介紹城市里的樹木死得更早的原因/

37.FK前文Nevermindthatmosttravelersnowadayshavesmartphoneswith

built-inalarmclocks.（大多數(shù)旅行的人都有手機(jī)鬧鈴，那也沒關(guān)系），后文舉例說

明各個(gè)酒店的個(gè)性人工叫醒服務(wù)，故而該空應(yīng)是過渡句，F(xiàn)項(xiàng)Thehumanwake-up

callisawaytopersonalizeaguesfsstay.（人工叫醒是一種個(gè)性化客人入住的方式）

符合題意。故選F4

38.BK前文以文華東方酒店為例，提到酒店不使用自動(dòng)化的電話叫醒，而是人

工，后句應(yīng)選B項(xiàng)Ifyoudon'tanswer,you'llgetawake-upknock.（如果你不接電

話，那么就有人來敲門）與之銜接，進(jìn)一步印證酒店人工叫醒的人性化。1

39.CK前文Hotelshavealwaystakenthewake-upcallseriously.（酒店對叫醒這件

事是非常認(rèn)真的）是本段主題句，而后文介紹了皇冠假日酒店有措施確保叫醒服

務(wù)得以實(shí)施。故選C項(xiàng)CrownPlaza,forinstance,hasawake-upcallguarantee.（例

如，皇冠假日酒店就有叫醒服務(wù)保證）1

40.DK后文提到在20世紀(jì)80年代末，酒店轉(zhuǎn)向自動(dòng)化系統(tǒng)。故D項(xiàng)Butthe

wake-upcallbecamelesspersonalovertheyears.（但隨著時(shí)間的推移，叫醒電話變

得不那么私人了）切題。》
