【答案】21.A22.B23.C

【解析】

【分析】

這是一篇應(yīng)用文。短文向讀者推薦了四本書。

【詳解】1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞“poetry”定位到SecondHarvest,結(jié)合本段中“Likethefirst

installment,EclecticHarvest,thisbookincludesrhymedpoemswhichem-ploydifferentpoetic

techniques.”和第一部《收獲折衷主義》一樣，這本書收錄了押韻的詩歌，運用了不同的詩歌

技巧。所以SecondHarvest這本書最能吸引詩歌愛好者。故選A。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。結(jié)合關(guān)鍵詞“PrabhashKaran”可以定位到“OfHumanNatureandGoodHabits”，

結(jié)合“Researchclaimsthatmaintainingonly5goodhabits-eatinghealthily,exercising,drinking

properly,notsmokingandmaintainingahealthybodyweight-cannotonlykeepthe

lifeingoldenyearshealthybutalsoextendthelifetimeoftheoldmenandwomenby12yearsand

14yearsrespectively.”研究表明，只保持健康飲食、鍛煉、適量飲酒、不吸煙、保持健康體

重等5個良好習(xí)慣，不僅可以使老年人的晚年生活保持健康，而且可以使老年人的壽命分別

延長12年和14年?？芍?，保持五個良好的習(xí)慣(健康飲食、運動、適量飲酒、不吸煙、保

持健康體重)可以讓男性老人和女性老人的預(yù)期壽命分別延長12年和14年。故選B。

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。結(jié)合關(guān)鍵詞“MarvltandGoregGetinBigTroublewithaDinosaur”，定位到文

章最后一個黑體字部分。根據(jù)“MarvltandGoreglivenextdoortoeachother,andarebest

friends.Thesetwonaughty8-year-oldsseemtogetintoallsortsoftroubles.Atthezoo,theyhave

amuchdifferentencounter^Marvlt和Goreg是鄰居，他們是最好的朋友。這兩個淘氣的八歲

小孩，好像惹了很多麻煩。在動物園里，他們有著截然不同的遭遇.可知，這本書講述了關(guān)

于動物和孩子的故事。故選C。

B

A.Advantages.B.Crisis.

C.Services.D.Details.

27.WhichofthefollowingwordscanbestdescribeMahendra?

A.Kind-hearted.B.Humorous.

C.Open-minded.D.Modest.

【答案】24.D25.B26.B27.A

【解析】

本文是記敘文，講述了Mahendra成立印度第一個殘犬、病犬收容所的過程和收容所的現(xiàn)狀。

【24題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第一句"Ilallstartedin1998.”這開始于1998年。接下來第二段

講述了Mahendra散步時遇到了一條受傷的狗，然后就全身心地照顧他，直到小狗死亡。再

結(jié)合第三段"Afterthat,Mahendrastartedprovidingtreatmenttoallwoundedandsickdogshe

cameacross."在那之后，Mahendra開始為他遇到的所有受傷的和生病的狗提供治療，綜合

可知，一只虛弱、生病的流浪狗的死亡讓他決定為殘疾和生病的狗做些什么。故選D項。

【25題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“Finally,RameshBhaiPatel,anativefarmerfromavillagenamed

Jundal,agreedtogivehislandfornothing."可知，最后一個名叫RameshBhaiPatel.來自

Jundal的農(nóng)民同意將自己的土地?zé)o償讓給他。即當(dāng)Mahendra試圖建造庇護所時，他從當(dāng)?shù)?/p>

一位農(nóng)民那里免費得到一塊地。故選B項。

【26題詳解】

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)最后一段劃線詞后"butMahendraisdeterminedthatnomatterwhat

challengecomestheirway,they'11fightthrough."但是Mahendra決心無論他們面臨什么樣的

挑戰(zhàn)，他們都將戰(zhàn)勝它。再結(jié)合劃線單詞所在句子“Therehavebeensomefinancialcrunches

nowandthen”時不時有經(jīng)濟方面的crunches,結(jié)合兩句的意思以及兩句之間的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，

可知financialcrunches意思應(yīng)該是“經(jīng)濟方面的困境，危機”，結(jié)合選項，可知crunches是

“危機”的意思，故選B項。

【27題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)Mahendra救助一只虛弱、生病的流浪狗，并努力建立殘犬、病犬收容所

的故事可知，他是一個善良的人。故選A項。

【答案】28.A29.D30.D31.C

【解析】

本文是說明文。馬里不斷縮小的湖泊意味著漁民家庭的末日。隨著氣溫升高和蒸發(fā)的增加，

水體萎縮導(dǎo)致湖泊逐漸縮小，漁民的孩子成為漁民的機會也在減少。

【28題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“Thelake'sfishhaveprovidedhimwithawaytoearnmoneytosupport

hisextendedfamily.How-ever,becausehecan'tcatchenoughfishtofeedhisfamily,henowraises

fhrmanimals."（湖中的魚為他提供了賺錢養(yǎng)家的途徑。然而，由于他捕不到足夠的魚來養(yǎng)活

家人，他現(xiàn)在飼養(yǎng)農(nóng)場動物。）可知，在過去，Traore靠捕魚養(yǎng)家。故選A。

【29題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“'Ifthingsgoonlikethis,Idon'tthinkourchildrencanbecome

fishermenlikeus.Theywillhavetochooseotherjobs/he56-year-oldTraoresaid."（“如果這樣

下去，我想我們的孩子可能成為不了我們這樣的漁民了。他們將不得不選擇其他工作，”56

歲的特拉奧雷說。）可知，下一代人將會選擇其他的職業(yè)。故選D。

【30題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“UNofficialsnotethatthefloodingandaseverelackofrainfallcan

causeproblemsintheSahel:Foodinsecurity,thefightoverfarmlandandthefastpopulationgrowth

canleadtoconflict."（聯(lián)合國官員指出，洪水和嚴(yán)重缺雨會給薩赫勒地區(qū)帶來問題：糧食不

安全、農(nóng)田爭奪和人口快速增長都可能導(dǎo)致沖突。）可知，可知溫度上升會導(dǎo)致水資源的問

題。故選D。

【31題詳解】

詞句猜測題。|艮據(jù)上文“PeopleintheruralareasWegniaandKononi-Sirakorohaveplanted56,000

treesinthepasttwoyears."（在Wegnia和Kononi-Sirakoro農(nóng)村地區(qū)的人們在過去兩年里種植

了56000棵樹。）以及下文“Moreandmorepeopleareturningtootheragriculture."（越來越多

的人轉(zhuǎn)向其他農(nóng)業(yè)。）可知這里指的是這些村民通過建造石頭屏障來使土壤保持雨水，從而

更好地控制水分。所以they指的是村民。故選C。

D

實驗，然后通過對比參與者血糖的反應(yīng)得出研究結(jié)果。故選B項。

【33題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段中的“However,strongblackcoffeeconsumedbeforebreakfastin-creased

thebloodsugarresponsebyaround50percent.v（然而，早餐前喝濃咖啡能使血糖反應(yīng)提高

50%左右。）和第四段中的"Bydrinkingsuchkindofdrinkafterbreakfast,UKresearchersfound

驗證明：在不同時間喝咖啡對健康會產(chǎn)生不同的影響——早餐前喝濃咖啡會使血糖反應(yīng)增加

約50%,早餐后喝咖啡會使身體健康分解食物的能力得到提高。故選D項。

【34題詳解】

推理判斷題。由最后一段中的"Asuptonowwehavehadlimitedknowledgeaboutwhatthisis

doingtoourbodies,inparticularforourmetabolicandbloodsugarcontrol,sowehavealongway

授說：“到目前為止，我們對咖啡對我們的身體所起的作用知之甚少，尤其是對于我們的新

陳代謝和血糖控制，所以我們還有很長的路要走。"）.可知JamesBetts認(rèn)為這項研究仍需

繼續(xù)。故選C項。

【35題詳解】

主旨大意題。第一段講“研究表明早餐前喝咖啡會極大地影響新陳代謝和血糖控制”，第二

三四段講“英國研究者們讓三組健康的男女參加不同的實驗，然后通過對比參與者血糖的反

應(yīng)得出研究結(jié)果：在不同時間喝咖啡對健康會產(chǎn)生不同的影響”，最后一段講“這項研究很

重要，但有很長的路要走，仍需繼續(xù)研究”，可知本文主要講早餐前喝咖啡會損害新陳代謝,

尤其是血糖水平。故選C項。

第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）
