答案以及解析A答案：1-3CDA解析：1.细节理解题。根据第二部分中win$100inDowntownDollars和enterinthedrawingforDowntownDollars.可知,这个活动中找到JackLondon照片的人可以通过抽奖获得100美元的购物券。2.推理判断题。根据文中DonateanitemtoBeniciaMainStreetfortheBeniciaFamilyResourceCenterandreceive可知,只有向theBeniciaFamilyResourceCenter捐赠物品的人才可以得到购物打折的优惠。3.细节理解题。根据第一部分中Aminimumof6reservationsisrequiredortheGhostWalkwillbecanceled可知,这个活动要求提前预定的人数至少是6人,否则将取消活动。B答案：4.D;5.C;6.D;7.A

解析：4.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Iwatchedthedrivergetoutofthecar.Hewasstrongwithashavedhead;heworecargoshortsandaflannel法兰绒)shirt,unbuttonedtoexposehischesthair.Idislikedhimimmediately.”可知,作者不喜欢他的原因是他奇怪的外貌和随意的穿着。故选D.

5.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句“Thisstrangemanwasactuallyahero.”和最后一段最后一句“Itmakesmewonderwhatelsethatmanhasimproved,andhowIcanmakemyselfmorelikehim.”可知,这名司机对作者影响颇深。故选C。

6.推理判断题。综观全文,根据作者对司机的外貌描述和司机的一系列表现可知他虽然长相一般,穿着随意,但是极负责任地修好并加固了篱笆。故选D。

7.主旨大意题。综观全文,作者一开始是从外貌及衣着来评判这个司机的,但后来司机的一系列行为扭转了作者对他的看法,所以本文主要讲述“不要以貌取人”。故选A。C答案：8-11ADCC解析：8.根据第一段以及第四段中的第二句可知,EricShipton是探险家,他是在探索登山路线时发现了雪人的脚印。9.根据第二段最后一句可知,DanielTaylor认为人们应该相信神秘事物的存在。10.根据第五段最后一句可知,雪人体形巨大。11.根据文章最后一句可知,作者急切地想知道寻找雪人的结果。D答案：12-15DADC解析：12.D根据第二段以及第四段内容可知,蚂蚁能够大批快速通行的关键是它们会根据道路状况而做出自我行为的调整。13.A根据第四段首句内容可知,人们认为蚂蚁大批且快速通行的能力是令人吃惊的。14.D根据第四、五段内容可知,研究人员发现蚂蚁会根据道路交通状况调整自己的速度以适应整体局面,从而保持交通顺畅。而人们在驾驶时却没有全局意识,只是率性而为,由此推断研究人员建议人们应该要调整自己的驾驶习惯而顾全大局,从而改善交通拥堵的状况。15.C本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了研究人员对蚂蚁进行的一项研究。通过研究发现蚂蚁会改变自己的行为来顾全大局从而保证交通的顺畅。研究人员认为人们应该从中得到一点启发。七选五答案：16-20CDFGB解析：16.根据后句的转折词though可知,空格处内容应该与后句内容相反,是对前句内容的具体解释。故判断C选项内容符合语境。17.本段内容是介绍人们有时讨厌闲聊的原因,由此可知D选项可以作为段落主题句,对本段起到概括作用。而A选项看似能够起到承上启下的作用,但应该问的是上一段现象的原因。故排除A项。18.前句内容介绍人类是社会性动物,所以需要与他人交流,由此判断F选项内容可以承接上句,内容符合语境。19.空前内容介绍闲聊会让人心情愉快,有助于心理健康,而G选项内容中的asimpleactoffriendliness是空前句中的smileornodorexchangeafewwords的概括,由此判断选G。makeone'sday意为"让某人开心"。20.前句介绍进行闲谈的技巧之一是提问题,而提问则是表现出一种好奇,由此判断B选项内容符合语境。F选项虽然在内容上可以和上句衔接,但和后句内容不连贯。完形填空答案：21.B;22.C;23.A;24.D;25.C;26.A;27.A;28.D;29.A;30.A;31.B;32.D;33.D;34.A;35.B;36.C;37.C;38.B;39.D;40.C

25.考查形容词辨析.special特殊的、特别的;exact准确的、严谨的;responsible有责任的、负责的、可靠的;certain确定的、确信的.用爸爸给的钱还我的学校贷款或加在我的储蓄帐户上,和下文花钱给自己买了"烹饪课程"相比,是比较"可靠的",故选C.

26.考查动词短语.payingoff偿还、还清;puttingaway收起;givingup放弃;admittingto承认、允许(某人)进入….空格后的宾语是myschoolloan(我的学校贷款),所以用payingoff.故选A.
