A.areofthesametypeB.allhavefightscenesC.haven’tdecidedontheactorsD.areallintendedforteenagers【答案】C【解析】推理判斷題。由四部電影Cast部分中的“Unknownactorsasneedtoberealtwins”,“Tobedecided(bythedirector)”和“MajorHollywoodstarasleadactress(undecided)”以及“Young,unknownactors”可知,這四部電影都沒有確定演員陣容。BIfyouthinkthatrunningmarathonswillhelpyoulivealongandhealthylife,newresearchmaycomeasashock.Accordingtoarecentscientificstudy,peoplewhodoaverystrenuousworkoutareaslikelytodieaspeoplewhodonoexerciseatall.ScientistsinDenmarkhavebeenstudyingover1，000joggers(慢跑者)andnon-joggersfor12years.Thedeathratesfromthesamplegroupindicatethatpeoplewhojogataproperpacetwoorthreetimesaweekforlessthantwoandahalfhoursintotalareleastlikelytodie.Thebestspeedtojogatwasfoundtobeabout5milesperhour.Theresearchsuggeststhatpeoplewhojogmorethanthreetimesaweekorathigherspeedsofover7mphdieatthesamerateasnon-joggers.Thescientiststhinkthatthisisbecausestrenuousexercisecausesstructuralchangestotheheartandarteries(動脈)．Overtime,thiscancauseseriousinjuries.PeterSchnohr,aresearcherinCopenhagen,said,“Ifyourgoalistodecreaseriskofdeathandimprovelifeexpectancy(壽命)，joggingafewtimesaweekataproperpaceisagoodstrategy.Anythingmoreisnotjustunnecessary,anditmaybeharmful.”Theimplications(暗示)ofthisarethatmoderateformsofexercisesuchastaichi,yogaandwalkingmaybebetterforusthan“ironman”events,triathlonsandlong-distancerunningandcycling.AccordingtoJacobLouisMarott,anotherresearcherinvolvedinthestudy,“Youdon'tactuallyhavetodothatmuchtohaveagoodimpactonyourhealth.Andperhapsyoushouldn'tactuallydotoomuch.”24．Theunderlinedword“strenuous”inParagraph1isclosestinmeaningto“”．A．regular B．hardC．practical D．flexible【答案】B【解析】詞義猜測題。第一段“Ifyouthinkthatrunningmarathonswillhelpyoulivealongandhealthylife,newresearchmaycomeasashock.”可知，人們一般認為跑馬拉松會幫助我們過上健康長壽的生活，但新的研究結果不是這樣的。那些從事strenuousworkout的人和根本不做運動的人的死亡概率一樣。可以推測“runningmarathons”是屬于“strenuous運動”。再根據第二段“becausestrenuousexercisecausesstructuralchangestotheheartandarteries”可推測，strenuousexercise是指劇烈運動。strenuous意為“高強度的，劇烈的，強烈的”。故選B項。25．TheauthorpresentssomefiguresinParagraph2to．A．suggestgivingupjoggingB．showrisksofdoingsportsC．providesupportiveevidenceD．introducetheresearchprocess【答案】C【解析】推理判斷題。第二段中“Theresearchsuggeststhatpeoplewhojogmorethanthreetimesaweekorathigherspeedsofover7mphdieatthesamerateasnon-joggers.”，呈現研究數據是為了提供證據，證明文章第一段提出的觀點：做非常劇烈運動的人和根本不做運動的人的死亡概率一樣。故選C項。26．Accordingtothescientists,whyistoomuchexerciseharmful?A．Itmayinjuretheheartandarteries.B．Itcanmakethebodytiredout.C．Itwillbringmuchpressure.D．Itconsumestoomuchenergy.【答案】A【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段最后一句“Thescientiststhinkthatthisisbecausestrenuousexercisecausesstructuralchangestotheheartandarteries(動脈)．Overtime,thiscancauseseriousinjuries.”可知，過度運動可能會損傷我們的心臟和動脈。故選A項。27．Whatcanbeinferredfromthetext?A．Noexerciseatallisthebestchoice.B．Moreexercisemeansahealthierlife.C．Marathonsrunnersareleastlikelytodie.D．Properexercisecontributestogoodhealth.【答案】D【解析】推理判斷題。根據第三段“Anythingmoreisnotjustunnecessary,anditmaybeharmful.”和第四段JacobLouisMarott的觀點“Andperhapsyoushouldn'tactuallydotoomuch.”可知，如果目標是降低死亡風險和延長壽命，以適當的速度每周慢跑幾次是合適的，不應該做太多的運動。適度的運動才對我們的健康有好處。故選D項。CFindingtimetodobothhomeworkandexerciseisgettingeasierforstudentsatagrowingnumberofschools.Workoutmachinesareappearinginmanyschoollibraries.ThelatestschooltofixtheBikeDeskisTroyUniversity,whichnowhasatotalofsixinthelibraries.Overthepastthreeyears,theBikeDeskshavealsobeenfixedatfourotheruniversities.Theideaofpushing“activeworkplaces”isfarfromnew.Fromstandingofficestotreadmill(跑步機)meetings,companieshavebeenexploringthebenefitsofgettingemployeesupfromtheirdesks—benefitsthatincludehighermorale(士氣)andimprovedworkperformance.Andarecentstudythatfocusesonyoungerchildrensuggestsastrongconnectionbetweenphysicalactivitiesandgoodgrades.ChrisShaffer,whoisdirectoroflibraryservicesatTroyUniversity,sayshethoughtitwouldbeworthexperimentingwiththemachines.“Thefinalgoalistomakethelibraryawelcomingplacethatourstudentswanttovisit,”saysShaffer,“Ifwecanfindawaytoletourstudentsstudyandbecomehealthieratthesametime,thenIamallforit.”HesaystheexperimenthasbeensosuccessfulsofarthattheuniversityhasorderedthreeadditionalBikeDesks.TroyjuniorNiquettesaysthebikeshavebeeninuseeverydayhehasvisitedthelibrary.“Keepingaproperdietandexercisescheduleduringcollegeisnearimpossible,”hesays,“TheseofferaspecialwaytostudyandIhopetheuniversitycontinuestoaddmore.”SeniorRavenhasn’tusedtheBikeDesksyetbutsaysshewishesthey’dbeenfixedsooner.“Irememberbeingajuniorandthegymissocrowded,withthesmellofsweat,loudmusicandpeoplemovingaround,”Ravensays,“Ithinkthemachinesareagreatidea.Youcandosportsquietlywhileothersfocusontheirstudy.”【語篇解讀】本文介紹了TroyUniversity在圖書館安裝健身器材讓學生學習之余可以健身。28.Whatcanwelearnfromthefirstparagraph?A.Universitystudentsaredoingmoreexercisenow.B.Doinghomeworkiseasyforuniversitystudentsnow.C.TroyUniversityintroducedtheBikeDesktootherschools.D.Fixingworkoutmachinesinlibrariesisbecomingpopular.【答案】D【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據第一段的Workoutmachinesareappearinginmanyschoollibraries.“健身器材出現在許多學校的圖書館里?！笨芍?在圖書館安裝健身器材很受歡迎。29.Whatisthesecondparagraphmainlyabout?A.Thetypesofexerciseatworkplaces.B.Theexplanationofworkperformance.C.Thedevelopmentofactiveworkplaces.D.Thebenefitsofexercisingduringworkandstudy.【答案】D【解析】段落大意題。根據第二段的Andarecentstudythatfocusesonyoungerchildrensuggestsastrongconnectionbetweenphysicalactivitiesandgoodgrades.“最近一項針對年齡更小的孩子的研究表明,體育活動和好成績之間有很強的聯系?！笨芍?本段介紹工作和學習期間鍛煉的好處。30.WhatisthepurposeoffixingtheBikeDesksaccordingtoShaffer?A.Tomakethelibraryattractivetostudents.B.Tomakestudentsbecomehealthier.C.Tohelpstudentstogetgoodgrades.D.Todoexperimentsonthemachines.【答案】A【解析】推理判斷題。根據第三段的Thefinalgoalistomakethelibraryawelcomingplacethatourstudentswanttovisit.“最后的目標是使圖書館成為一個我們的學生想要訪問的受歡迎的地方。”可知,安裝健身器材的目的是使圖書館對學生有吸引力。31.WhatdoNiquetteandRaventhinkaboutthebikes?A.Theyareeasytoride.B.Theyarereallyuseful.C.Theymakethelibrarynoisy.D.Theydistractstudents.【答案】B【解析】推理判斷題。根據最后一段的Niquettesaysthebikeshavebeeninuseeverydayhehasvisitedthelibrary.“尼奎特說,他每天去圖書館都要騎自行車?！焙蚏avensays,“Ithinkthemachinesareagreatidea.Youcandosportsquietlywhileothersfocusontheirstudy.”“雷文說,我認為機器是個好主意。你可以安靜地做運動,而其他人專注于他們的學習?！笨芍?Niquette和Raven認為圖書館的自行車真的有用。DIfitreallyiswhat’sontheinsidethatcounts,thenalotofthinpeoplemightbeintrouble.Somedoctorsnowthinkthattheinternalfatsurroundingimportantorgansliketheheartorlivercouldbeasdangerousastheexternalfatwhichcanbenoticedmoreeasily.“Beingthindoesn’tsurelymeanyouarenotfat”,saidDr.JimmyBellatImperialCollege.Since1994,Bellandhisteamhavescannednearly800peoplewithMRImachinestocreate“fatmaps”showingwherepeoplestorefat.Accordingtotheresult,peoplewhokeeptheirweightthroughdietratherthanexercisearelikelytohavemajordepositsofinternalfat,ev

A.theexactdangersofinternalfatB.beingslimisnotdangerousatallC.internalfatisthecauseofheartdiseaseD.beingslimdoesn’tmeanyouarenotfatinside【答案】D【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據第五段可知,根據研究結果,那些通過節(jié)食而不是運動來保持體重的人,即使他們很瘦,體內也可能有大量的脂肪沉積。由此可知,即使人很苗條,但也不一定就不胖。故選D。34.Whatcanwelearnfromthelastparagraph?A.Internalfatleadingtodiseasehasbeenproved.B.Thinpeopleusuallyhaveinternalfateveniftheyareslim.C.Itiseasiertoburnoffinternalfatthanexternalfat.D.Exerciseplaysanimportantroleinpeople’slifeforkeepinghealthy.【答案】D【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據最后一段中Exercisehastobeanimportantpartofyourlifestyle可知,鍛煉是你生活方式中很重要的一部分。由此可知,鍛煉在人的生活中起很重要的作用。故選D。35.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“shortcut”inthelastparagraphmean?A.Alongroad.B.Agooddiet.C.Acleardifference.D.Ashortdistance.【答案】D【解析】詞義猜測題。根據最后一段中Thegoodnewsisthatinternalfatcanbeeasilyburnedoffthroughexerciseorevenbyimprovingyourdiet.可知,好消息是,內部脂肪可以通過鍛煉,甚至通過改善飲食很容易燃燒掉。再根據Exercisehastobeanimportantpartofyourlifestyle可知,鍛煉是你生活方式中很重要的一部分。由此可知,如果你想要健康沒有捷徑,只有鍛煉。從而推知畫線詞的意思是“捷徑”。故選D。二、七選五（共5小題，每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）Criticalthinkingmeansabsorbingimportantinformationandusingthattoformadecisionoropinionofyourown.36Butluckily,it’ssomethingyoucantrainyourselftodobetter.Oneofthemostimportantpartsofthinkingcriticallyislearningwhatdetailsmatter.We’reexposedtosomuchinformationandsomanydifferentopinionseverydaythatit’sreallyeasytogetlostinthedetails.37Knowingwhichdetailsarethemostimportantisthefirstpartofcriticalthinking,butit’sprettyuselessifyoudon’tknowwhattypesofquestionstoasknext.38It’simportanttoalwaysaskyourselfwhysomethingisimportantandhowitconnectstothingsyoualreadyknow.Asyoudothat,youtrainyourbraintothinkcriticallyaboutmoreinformationyoucomeacross.Aswithanything,ifyouwanttogetgoodatcriticalthinking,youneedtopracticeiteveryday.39Thiscouldbecasualobservationsoranotebookwithopinions,butthepointistowriteeverysingleday.Likewise,participatinginahealthydebatewithfriendsisgreatpractice.40Themoreknowledgeyougain,thebetteryou’llbecomeatthinkingaboutit.Thatdoesn’tmeanthatyoushouldbeconstantlythinkingaboutthinking,buttheendresultisabrainthatautomaticallyformsbetterarguments,focusedideas,andcreativesolutionstoproblems.A.Criticalthinkingdoesn'tend.B.Itdoesn’talwayscomenaturallytous.C.Criticalthinkingcan’tbelearnedinschool.D.Youshouldquestionalltheprovideddetails.E.Oneeasywaytodothisistokeepajournalofsomekind.F.Afterall,thinkingcriticallyandaskingquestionsgohandinhand.G.Asaresult,weneedtotrainourselvestolearnwhichdetailsmatter.【答案】36-40BGFEA【解析】這是一篇說明文。文章向讀者介紹了訓練批判性思維的建議。36．由下一句“Butluckily,it'ssomethingyoucantrainyourselftodobetter.”（但幸運的是，你可以訓練自己在批判性思維上做得更好。）可知，“But”表轉折，后面講我們可以訓練批判性思維，說明批判性思維需要訓練，不是隨時都有、自然而然出現的，所以我們可以通過訓練得到批判性思維，承接下文，B選項“批判性思維并不總是自然而然地出現在我們身上?！鼻蓄}。故選B項。37．由上兩句“Oneofthemostimportantpartsofthinkingcriticallyislearningwhatdetailsmatter.We'reexposedtosomuchinformationandsomanydifferentopinionseverydaythatit'sreallyeasytogetlostinthedetails.”（批判性思維最重要的部分之一是了解細節(jié)的重要性。我們每天都會接觸到太多的信息和太多不同的意見，很容易迷失在細節(jié)中。）可知，人們每天都會接觸到太多的信息和不同的意見，而批判性思維最重要的部分之一是了解細節(jié)的重要性，所以訓練批判性思維需要去了解哪些細節(jié)是重要的，承接上文，G選項“隨后，我們需要訓練自己去了解哪些細節(jié)是重要的。”切題。故選G項。38．由上一句“Knowingwhichdetailsmatteristhefirstpartofcriticalthinking,butit'sprettyuselessifyoudon'tknowwhattypesofquestionstoasknext.”（知道哪些細節(jié)很重要是批判性思維的第一部分，但是如果你不知道下一步要問什么類型的問題，那就沒用了。）可知，只知道批判性思維中的哪些細節(jié)很重要，但不會提問，那也沒用，說明批判性思考和提問都很重要、相輔相成，承接上文，F選項“畢竟，批判性思考和提問是相輔相成的。”切題。故選F項。39．由上一句“Aswithanything,ifyouwanttogetgoodatcriticalthinking,youneedtopracticeiteveryday.”（和任何事情一樣，如果你想擅長批判性思維，你需要每天練習。）和下一句“Thiscouldbecasualobservationsoranotebookwithopinions,butthepointistowriteeverysingleday.”（這可以是一個隨意的觀察，也可以是一個有意見的筆記本，但關鍵是每天都要寫。）可知，批判性思維需要每天練習，可以是一個有意見的筆記本，說明作者建議讀者每天記日記來訓練批判性思維，承接上下文，E選項“一個簡單的方法就是記日記?！鼻蓄}。故選E項。40．本處是段落總結。由下一句“Themoreknowledgeyougain,thebetteryou'llbecomeatthinkingaboutit.”（你獲得的知識越多，你就越善于思考。）可知，學的越多就越善于思考，說明批判性思維的學習是無止境的、不會結束，越學越有用，承接下文，A選項“批判性思維不會結束。”切題。故選A項。完形填空（共15小題，每小題1分，滿分15分）TheMunfordsweremovingintoahousetheybought.Theywantedtoseeifallthefurniturewasingoodconditionbeforetheyusedit.JamesMunfordwas____41____thebuilt-indrawersintheclosetlastmonth,whenhefoundtwocasesholding46goldLiberty$5coinsand18Morgansilverdollarsthatweremadeinthe1800s.Theylookedreallyold,liketheywerereallyworthalotof____42____.Jamesandhiswife,Clarrisa,whoarebothretiredthoughtthecoinsare____43____afamilyheirloom(傳家寶),sotheywentaheadandmadesuretheowner____44____themback.Jamestextedpicturesofthe____45____tothehome’sformerownerandmadeplansto____46____them.“Wereallydidn’tknowanythingaboutthe____47____ofthecoins.Wereallydidn’t____48____,tobehonestwithyou.Weknewtheywerenotours,”saidClarrisaMunford,whorunsarestaurantbusiness.Thehome’s____49____owner,whoaskednottobe_____50_____,estimated(估算)thatthecoinswereworthabout$25,000.Hesaidhe’dputthecontainersinthebackofhissockdrawerafewmonthsagoforsafekeepinganddidn’tseeitinhis_____51_____togetpackedupandmovedoutofthehouse.Therestofhiscoincollectionwasinhissafe.Hedidn’trealizethecoinswere_____52_____untiltheMunfordscontactedhim.Headdedthathewouldneverhaveknowniftheyhad_____53_____tosellthe
