D.1.5hoursbeforeboarding.

【答案】第1题:A

第2题:B

第3题:A

第4题:A

第5题:D

【解析】1.客观细节题。由题干关键词“Leonardo”可以定位到文章第二段，第二段最后一句说到Themessageisclear:Airtravelisglamorous,sexyandatotalbreeze.（传达出的信息很明确：航空旅行是充满魅力、性感和轻松的。），说明莱昂纳多的表演传达了航空旅行是迷人的。因此A选项“令人神往的”正确。B选项“危险的”，C选项“令人沮丧的”，D选项“耗时的”均不符合文章表达的内容，所以B，C，D错误。

2.客观细节题。由A选项关键词“largest”可以定位到文章第三段第一句whatisstilltheworld’slargestairport(bypassengernumbers)（按乘客数量计算是世界上最大的机场），说明希思罗机场的世界最大是按照乘客数量计算的，而不是面积，所以A选项“希思罗机场是世界上面积最大的机场”错误。由C选项关键词“collapse”可以定位到文章第三段第一句isstretchedtobreakingpoint,besetbydelaysandhamperedbyacreakinginfrastructure（被延误和老化的基础设施所困扰，已经到了崩溃的边缘），说明希思罗机场濒临崩溃的原因是延误和老化的设施，而不是旅客数量，所以C选项“希思罗机场因旅客数量巨大而即将崩溃”错误。D选项“机场决心对老旧航站楼进行改造”在文中没有提及，所以D错误。由B选项关键词“significantposition”可以定位到文章第四段第一句Heathrow’skeyroleinthedevelopmentofBritain’s(andtheworld’s)aviationindustryhasbeenitsundoing.（希思罗机场在英国，乃至世界航空工业发展中的关键作用导致了它的毁灭。），说明导致希思罗机场现状的原因是它的在历史上的关键作用。因此B选项“机场在历史上的重要地位成为造成其现状的主要原因”正确。

3.客观细节题。根据题干关键词“airportsecurity”可以定位到文章第五段第一句ThequeuestoclearHeathrow’ssecuritycantakehourstoclear,especiallywhennotalltheX-raymachinesareopen.（希思罗机场安检的长队可能需要数小时才能通过，尤其是当X光机没有全部开放的时候。），说明只开放了部分X光机时，安检排队时间尤为漫长。因此A选项“只有部分X光机是开放的”正确。B选项“所有的X光机都被关闭”，C选项“反复检查行李”在文中均没有提及，所以B，C错误。D选项“行李系统出现故障”是希思罗机场的问题之一，但原文没有说它是造成安检时间特别漫长的原因，所以D错误。

4.客观细节题。由题干可以定位到文章第六段第二句Heathrow,likesevenothermajorairportsintheUK,isrunbytheBritishAirportsAuthority(BAA),whohasbeenaccusedofputtingtheprofitsfromthevastshoppingmallsineachterminalbeforeinvestmentinsecurityandstaff.（希思罗机场和英国其他七家主要机场一样，都是由英国机场管理局运营的，该管理局被指责把每个航站楼的大型购物中心的利润放在安全和员工投资之前。），说明英国机场投资不足是英国机场管理局之过。因此A选项“英国机场管理局”正确。B选项“欧洲航空公司协会”，C选项“希思罗机场”，D选项“国际航空运输协会”均不符合题意，所以B，C，D错误。

5.客观细节题。由题干可以定位到文章第七段第四句AndBAAisrecommendingthatpeopledon’tturnupearlierthantheyshould—threehoursforlong-haul,twoforshorthauland90minutesfordomesticshouldbefine.（BAA建议乘客不要早到——长途登机前3小时，短途登机前2小时，国内航班登机前90分钟就可以了。），说明国内航班的旅客应在登机前90分钟到达机场。因此D选项“登机前1.5小时”正确。A选项“登机前1小时”，B选项“登机前2小时”，C选项“登机前3小时”均不符合题意，所以A，B，C错误。

2.单选题

Withawidevarietyoffreshfruit（）available,cannedfruitisnolongersopopularasbefore.

问题1选项

A.personally

B.readily

C.rarely

D.properly

【答案】B

【解析】考查副词辨析。A选项personally“亲自地；当面；个别”；B选项readily“容易地；乐意地”；C选项rarely“很少地”；D选项properly“恰当地”。句意：随着各种各样的新鲜水果可（）获得，罐头水果不再像以前那样受欢迎。根据语境，因为新鲜水果容易购买，于是水果罐头不那么受欢迎了，readily“容易地”符合题意。因此B选项正确。

3.单选题

Thechildrencheeredupwhentheysawhundredsofcolorfulballoons（

）slowlyinto

thesky.

问题1选项

A.floating

B.raising

C.heaving

D.ascending

【答案】D

【解析】考查动词词义辨析。float“漂浮，浮动”；raise“提升，增加”；heave“举起”；ascend“攀登，上升”。句意：看到数百只彩色的气球缓缓升入天空，孩子们欢呼起来。选项D符合题意。

4.单选题

Youmustinsistthatstudentsgiveatruthfulanswer（）withtherealityoftheirworld.

问题1选项

A.relevant

B.simultaneous

C.consistent

D.practical

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词词义辨析。A选项relevant表示“相关的；中肯的”，常与介词to搭配，B选项simultaneous表示“同时的，同时发生的”，C选项consistent表示“一致的；连续的”，常与介词with搭配，D选项practical表示“实际的；实践的”。由题干信息可知，原文空缺处单词需与with构成搭配，表示“与……一致”，因此，本题最佳选项为C选项。句意：你必须坚持要求学生的真实回答要与他们的现实世界一致。

5.单选题

Thisisan____pieceofworkofart,verifiedbyseveralprominentartconnoisseurs.

问题1选项

A.angular

B.ambitious

C.authentic

D.almighty

【答案】C

【解析】【选项释义】

A.angular有棱角的；有尖角的B.ambitious费力的；耗资的；耗时的

C.authentic真品的D.almighty全能的

【答案】C

【考查点】语义衔接

【解题思路】原句中，该词修饰的是艺术作品，根据后文“经几位著名的艺术鉴赏家证实”推测，该句表述的是该艺术作品是真品，C选项authentic“真品的”符合前后语义衔接。

【干扰项排除】A、B、D选项不符合原句语义衔接。

【句意】这是一件经过几位著名艺术鉴赏家鉴定的真品。

6.填空题

Oneofourarticlesisabouttobe（1）inNature.Everyoneispleasedthatit’sappearinginahigh-profileinternationaljournal,buttherewasaserious（2）inourresearchgroup（3）overwhoshouldbetheleadauthor.Someofthe（4）

ofthegrouparestillangry.

【答案】1.published

2.such

3.debate

4.members

【解析】1.语义题。句中的Nature是指一种杂志，我们的文章应该是“发表在”杂志中。

2.语义题。这里填such，suchahigh-profileinternationaljournal表示“如此引入注目的期刊”。

3.固定搭配。debateover就……进行讨论。

4.语义题。根据空格后的ofthegroup可以推断出最后一个空可以填入members表示“团队的成员”。

7.单选题

Nohumanbeingis（

），butAlistairAldingtonmadeveryfewmistakes.

问题1选项

A.fallacious

B.false

C.plausible

D.infallible

【答案】D

【解析】考查形容词辨析。fallacious意为“(思想、论据、道理)谬误的，错误的”；false意为“错误的；不正确的，伪造的”；plausible意为“(借口或解释)有道理的，花言巧语的”；infallible意为“永无过失的，一贯正确的，绝对可靠的”。由句中的but可知前后为转折关系，因此选D。

句意：没有人是永不犯错的，但AlistairAldington很少犯错误。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:C

第3题:B

第4题:C

第5题:A

【解析】1.细节判断题。文章关于泰晤士河给哪些人带来利益的描述在第三段:Itis,forexample,a“sportingriver”torowers,butaworkingriverformenofcommerce.AndpaintersandwritersregardtheThamesasasourceofinspiration(例如，对于划手来说，这是一条“运动之河”，但对于商业人士来说，这是一条工作之河。画家和作家认为泰晤士河是灵感的源泉)。因此四个选项中,泰晤士没有带来利益的是D项“农民”。

2.判断推理题。第一段将泰晤士河,尼罗河,亚马逊河和密西西比河做了比较:itisalittlerivercomparedtheNile,Amazon,orMississippi(对比尼罗河,亚马逊河和密西西比河,泰晤士河只能算作一条小河流)。由此推断泰晤士河短一些。故选C项。

3.细节事实题。文中第四段提到“topreventtheriverfromflooding,theworld'slargestmovablefloodbarrierwasbuiltin1972”，可知为了防止洪水的爆发，1972年建立了世界上最大的移动式防洪屏障。答案为B。

4.主旨大意题。文章第二段讲了泰晤士河见证了伦敦的衰落，文中最后一段讲了现在伦敦建立了高楼大厦以及伦敦的变化，可见泰晤士河见证了伦敦的衰落。C项“泰晤士河见证了伦敦的起伏”比较能概括全文

5.细节事实题。四个选项为:A:泰晤士河曾经是繁荣的,错误,第二段说泰晤士河以前旁边只有沼泽河岸。

11.单选题

）.

问题1选项

A.paidoff

B.takenitstoll

C.madeadifference

D.shownup

【答案】A

【解析】词组辨析题。payoff付清，取得成功；takeitstoll造成损失，造成伤亡；makeadifference有影响，有关系；showup出现，揭露。

句意：我很高兴的听说你找到了工作，在学校里一切的努力显然都得到了回报。只有选项A符合语境。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:C

第3题:A

第4题:B

第5题:A

【解析】1.事实细节题。题干问：这篇文章提到买（）。D选项“为一个孩子离家的老人买一栋小房子”，定位到倒数第二段，第二句Itmustbesmaller,quieter,easiertorun,andmoreconvenientlyplacedfortransport.（它必须更小，更安静，更容易运行，更方便运输。）我们可以看出来这个房子应该是很小的，并且是给老人住的，因此答案是D。A选项“为一对新人买房子”，B选项“为一个不断壮大的家庭买一个大房子”，C选项“当人们有更多资金时买一栋更好的房子”。

2.判断推理题。题干问：文章暗示长大的孩子会（）。C选项“更加友好但是不那么亲近”，答案定位到第一段whereyourchildrenpassedthroughtheirwonderfulchildhoodandannoyingteenstoafriendlybutslightlydistantcommunitysuddenly.（在这里，你的孩子在一个友好但有点疏远的社区里度过了美好的童年和令人讨厌的少年。）我们可以得出，孩子长大后变得更友好，但是也和父母有了距离，因此答案为C。A选项“在他们长大之后对他们的父母更好”，B选项“和父母会产生距离”，D选项“烦人的”。

3.事实细节题。题干问：作者决定搬家（）。A选项“当他们的房子带给他们太多的家务并且需要花费很多去打理”，根据题干我们定位到第二段ahouse,whichconsumesinitsmaintenancetoomuchenergyandmoney.（它消耗了太多的精力和金钱来维护。）因此答案为A。B选项“当他们厌倦了他们现在的房子”，C选项“当他们突然有能力去搬家了”，D选项“在房子倒塌之前”。

4.事实细节题。题干问：作者建议处于像他这种情况的人（）。B选项“搬到能装下最大家具的地方”，定位到第三段Notsosmall,though,thatitwillnotelegantlyaccommodateyourlargestpiecesoffurniture（不过也不是太小，不能很好地摆放你最大的家具），因此作者建议这样人们搬到一个能放得下自己最大家具的房子，不一定要很小，答案为B。A选项“搬进去一个非常小的房子”，C选项“不要搬到离主路太远的地方”，D选项“选一个不那么吵的地方”。

5.事实细节题。题干问：根据原文，这个新房子有（）。A选项“两层”，定位到最后一段Therewereonlytwofloorsabovegroundlevel（只有地上两层），我们可以得出这个房子只有两层；Therewasakitchenonthegroundfloor,withthebathroomaboveit.（一楼有一间厨房，上面是浴室。）通过最后一句话我们可以得出，只有一个洗手间，因此答案为A。B选项“三层”，C选项“四层”，D选项“两个卫生间”。

16.单选题

Thefarmerusedwoodtobuildahouse______tostoregrain.

问题1选项

A.which

B.where

C.with

D.inwhich

【答案】D

【解析】【试题解析】考查定语从句。句意：那位农民用木头盖了一所房子，用来储存粮食。横线前面部分是完整的主谓宾结构，横线到句尾要么是短语要么是从句，根据语境，后面部分还原成tostoregraininahouse，强调在房子里面储存粮食，D选项inwhich是修饰storegrain的状语，A选项which不能作状语；B选项where虽然也可以作状语，但是指在建造房子的整个地方，而不是房子里面；C选项with后面接介词to语法错误。因此D选项正确。
