促進殘疾婦女權利的政策。她分享了對殘疾人最大的誤解:“人們會立即認為一個殘疾人是

解殘疾人。故選B項。

[答案】24.D25.C26.D27.B

【解析】

本文為一篇記敘文。講述了Ruiz的成長,求學經(jīng)歷以及她鼓勵他人去追尋夢想的事跡。

【24題詳解】

推理判斷題。由文章第一段"Ruiz'sfatherpassedawaywhenshewasthree,leavinghermother

toraisethefivechildren.(Ruiz父親在她三歲的時候就去世了,留下她的母親撫養(yǎng)五個孩

子。)”可知Ruiz童年時生活不易;由文章第二段內容uThoughhermotherwasaworking

singleparenttryingtosupportherownfamily,shedidn'thesitatetohelpothers.(盡管她的母親是

一個要養(yǎng)家糊口的單親媽媽,她還是毫不猶豫地幫助別人。)”可知,她們家是充滿愛心的;

由此可知,Ruiz的童年雖然不容易,但充滿了愛。故選D。

【25題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。由文章第三段"RuizgotsuchgoodgradesatRCGCthatshewasofferedapartial

scholarshiptostudyjournalismattheUniversityofMiamibutrealizingshecouldnotgetenoughto

covereverythingthescholarshipwouldn't,shedidn'tgotoMiami.(魯伊斯在RCGC取得了如止匕

好的成績,以至于邁阿密大學提供了她的部分獎學金,讓她去讀新聞。但當她意識到她獎學

金不夠支付所有開支時,她沒有去邁阿密。)”可知,Ruiz沒有去邁阿密上大學是因為她

負擔不起花費。故選Co

【26題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段"RuizbecameanEMTandworkednightsinPhiladelphia,eventually

enrollinginRowanCollegeatGloucesterCounty,whereshesoughttodevelopherskillsasa

storyteller.(魯伊斯成為了一名急救醫(yī)生,在費城上夜班,最終考入了格洛斯特縣的羅文學

院(RowanCollege),在那里她努力培養(yǎng)自己講故事的技能。)”和"Shegraduatedwithtwo

degrees-JournalismandRadio,Television&,Film-fromtheCollegeofCommunication&.Creative

Arts.(她畢業(yè)時獲得了新聞和廣播電視兩個學位”可知,Ruiz的求學經(jīng)歷體現(xiàn)了她有堅

定的信念和強大的毅力;由最后一段她說的話“MygoalistosharepowerfulstoriessothatIcan

inspireasmanypeopleaspossibletolovethemselvesandtofollowtheirdreams.(我的目標是分

享有影響力的故事,這樣我就能激勵盡可能多的人去愛自己,追隨自己的夢想。)”可以看

出她關愛他人。由此可知,Ruiz意志堅強,有愛心。故選D。

[27題詳解】

主旨大意題。閱讀文章內容,并根據(jù)最后一段Rowanprovidedmethetoolstogiveavoiceto

thevoiceless.MygoalistosharepowerfulstoriessothatIcaninspireasmanypeopleaspossibleto

lovethemselvesandtofollowtheirdreams."(Rowan給了我一些工具,讓我為無聲的人發(fā)聲。

我的目標是分享有影響力的故事,這樣我就能激勵盡可能多的人去愛自己,追隨自己的夢

想?!保┛芍?,文章講述Ruiz希望通過她自己的成長、求學經(jīng)歷來鼓勵他人去追尋夢想,

所以她對別人是有激勵和鼓舞作用的。B項“Ruiz———個鼓舞人心的女性”可以作為本文

的最佳標題。故選Bo

【答案】28.B29.B30.A31.D

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。主要講了目前全世界范圍內水資源短缺,以及由此會產生的相關問題。

【28題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段首句"Itisn'tonlyagrowingworldpopulationthatplacesdemandson

water-industriessuchasenergyandagriculturearealsoconsumingmoreandmore.(不僅世界人

口的增長對水資源產生了需求,諸如能源和農業(yè)等行業(yè)消耗的水資源也越來越多。)”可知本

段主要在講述水資源缺乏的原因。故選Bo

【29題詳解】

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞下文“mayleadtoarmedconflicts(可能導致武裝沖突)”可知對水資

源的爭奪會引起武裝沖突,故disputes應有“爭奪、搶奪”之意,B選項Argument.意為:爭執(zhí),

符合題意。故選B。

【30題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“Aroundtheworld.2.1billionpeopledonothaveimmediateaccessto

cleandrinkingwater.(全世界有21億人不能立即獲得干凈的飲用水。)”可知全世界很多人

喝不上干凈的飲用水。故選A。

【31題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的最后一段“Overthenexttenyears,ifwedonotcometogethertofind

answerstoourwatershortage,wewillfacemajorsupply-relatedissuesaroundtheglobe,notjust

withdrinkingwater-ourindustrieswillbeaffectedaswell.(在接下來的十年里,如果我們不能

齊心協(xié)力解決水資源短缺的問題。我們將在全球面臨與水供應相關的重大問題,不僅僅是飲

用水問題,我們的工業(yè)也將受到影響。)”可知作者寫這篇文章的主要目的是告訴我們水資源

短缺以及由此會產生的相關問題的一個嚴峻現(xiàn)狀。故選D。

【答案】32.D33.B34.C35.A

【解析】

本文為一篇說明文。文章主要講述了科學家們正在嘗試用一個最新的方法來改寫基因,如果

成功,將可以在一天的時間里創(chuàng)造出一個新的基因,但目前該技術尚未成熟。

【32題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。由第二段最后一■句話“Buttheprocessistypicallyslowanderror-prone,limiting

oligostoabout200letters-atinypartofthethousandsoflettersthatmakeupmostgenes.(但這個

過程通常是緩慢而且容易出錯的,限制寡核甘酸只有大約200個字母一一這只是組成大多數(shù)

基因的數(shù)千個字母中的一小部分。)”可知傳統(tǒng)重組基因方法的缺點是緩慢且容易出錯,故

選Do

[33題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的第一句話“Overthedecades,mostresearchershavesettledonone

particularpolymerase(聚合酶),calledTdT,becauseunlikeothers,itcanattachnewnucleotidesto

anoligostrandwithoutfollowingaDNAtemplatestrand.(在過去的幾十年里,大多數(shù)研究人

員都專注于一種特殊的聚合酶,稱為TdT,因為與其他酶不同的是,它可以將新的核甘酸附

著到寡聚鏈上,而不需要附著在DNA模板鏈上。)”第三段第一句話“Ultimately,theapproach

shouldbecheap,becauseTdTiseasytomanufactureinbacteria.(最終,這種方法應該是廉價的,

因為TdT很容易在細菌中制造。)”可知研究人員專注于TdT的原因是因為TdT在細菌中很

容易得到。故選Bo

【34題詳解】

推理判斷題。由文章最后一段的首句"Thenewapproachisnotquiteready.(新方法還不完全

成熟。)”及最后一句"Inordertowriteoligosupto1000baseslong,theapproachwilllikelyneed

tobe99.9%accurate.(為了寫出1000個堿基長的寡核甘酸,這種方法可能需要99.9%的準確

度。)”可以推斷出這種基因重組的方法目前還不成熟,主要是精準度不夠,由此可以推斷

出這種方法離正真應用到實際還需要進行很多的試驗與研究工作。故選Co

【35題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的主要內容可知本文為一篇科技說明文,講述了科學家們正在嘗試用

一個最新的方法來改寫基因,如果成功,將可以在一天的時間里創(chuàng)造出一個新的基因,由此

可知本文最有可能出現(xiàn)在與科技相關的雜志上。故選Ao

第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2.5分,滿分12.5分)

根據(jù)短文內容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩

項為多余選項。
