英语答案与解析第二部分阅读理解本篇广告类的说明文介绍了欧洲四个国家的首都即将举办的音乐节的相关信息。21．【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。本题考查文章列举的四个音乐节的时间长短，第二则说该节日持续一个星期，因此选D。22．【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。根据题干信息，我们把答案定位在最后一则介绍。该则信息说，参加这个音乐节的人主要是当地人(60,000mostlylocalpeople)，因此选D。23．【答案】A【解析】推理判断题。根据题干的rockmusic判断，第三、四则音乐节的介绍提到摇滚乐，举办地分别是德国柏林和法国的巴黎，因此选A。本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。想象力是人类创新的源泉，是创造的动力，会影响一个人的人生态度。“我”的童年就是一段充满想象力的美好岁月。“我”现在的积极人生态度都得益于此。24．【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。依据文章第一段可知，作者小时候曾经想象过自己未来成为宇航员、西部牛仔、足球运动员，由此可知，作者小时候对未来有着美好的憧憬，故选C项。25．【答案】B【解析】词义猜测题。由第一段可知，作者小时候想象自己从事某些职业，本句中的inmyhead说明作者在构思各种各样的境况，故选B项。26．【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中的…IndianaJones,whichcleanedupatthecinemaatthattime即可判断，这是当时一部很热门的影片。27．【答案】A【解析】推理判断题。在文章最后一段作者描述了自己小时候丰富的想象力对现在生活的影响，文中Ienjoysharingwithandhearingaboutotherpeople'sstories表明，作者与他人相处很好，乐观生活，这些都归功于“我创造性的想象力”。故选项A作为本文的标题最为合适。C篇【解题导语】要想健康生活，是先节食还是先运动呢？研究发现，两者同时进行好。28．【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。由第二段中的“…tendstodiscourage...newchangescanalsouseupenergyandmotivation,andleadtoadropincomplianceovertime”可知，这些建议都有弊端，所以不能令人满意。29．【答案】C【解析】推理判断题。由第四段中的Thosethatchangedtheirfitnesshabitsfirstsignificantlyincreasedtheamountofexercisetheyreceiveddailycomparedtotheothergroupsafterfourmonths.可知，这部分人在运动方面最先取得进步，对应的是第三组（见第三段）。30．【答案】C【解析】推理判断题。由第四段中的Theresearcherssuspectthatchangestodietareeasiertomakethanchangestophysicalactivity可推知，一开始先进行节食训练的小组一年后在运动方面还不达标，可能原因是，运动比节食改变起来更费劲。其他选项妄加揣测。31．【答案】A【解析】细节理解题。由末段首句的“pairingdietandexercisechangesmayhelptoovercomesomeofthebarrierspeoplefaceinaddingmorephysicalactivityintotheirlives”可知答案。好奇心像一台发动机，让你在求知的路上突飞猛进、硕果累累。那么如何激发好奇心呢？请看科学家们怎么说吧。32．【答案】A【解析】细节理解题。由第二段中的“Thecuriousindividualismotivatedtoobtainthemissinginformationtoreducethefeelingofdeprivation.”可知，当人们意识到知识缺口时，就渴望弥补它。33．【答案】D【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中的“soeagertogettotheanswerthatwedonotdevotesufficienttimetodevelopingthequestion”可知，DanielWillingham不赞同老师的做法。由此推知，学生厌学，老师责无旁贷。34．【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。由第四段的GeorgeLoewensteinnotedthatcuriosityrequiressomebasicknowledge可知答案。即要对某事物产生好奇心，需要有相关知识。35．【答案】C【解析】主旨大意题。由第一段中的Buthowdoesonegenerate（产生）curiosity,inoneselforothers?可知，本文谈好奇心是怎样产生的问题，针对此问题，最后三段对如何激发好奇心给出了科学的建议。由此可知答案为C项。语言学习的明显目的是为了交流，但对我们了解异域文化、职业发展和语言提高也有很好的帮助作用。36．【答案】D【解析】根据下文中的Peopleineverycountrypreferitwhentouristsmakeanefforttospeakthelocallanguage,evenifallyoucansayinitis“hello”and“please”，可知应选D项，Yourtrip与tourists相呼应。37．【答案】C【解析】根据段落开头的Speakinganewlanguagehelpsyoutogettoknowanotherpeopleandculture可知，学习另一种语言能够开阔眼界。38．【答案】B【解析】根据上文中的Itisextremelydifficultforatranslationtobeaperfectreplicaoftheoriginal可知，最好的方法是阅读作者的原著。39．【答案】E【解析】根据下文中的Schoolsandemployerstendtoprefercandidateswhospeakoneormoreforeignlanguages可知，讲多种语言能够增加市场机会。40．【答案】G【解析】上文谈到许多语言对英语的发展的作用，据此可知，通过学习那些语言能够知道词汇和语法结构的起源。第三部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空【解题导语】本文是一篇神话故事，是有关Diwali（排灯节）的传说，讲述了一位老妇人用自己的智慧为全家人换来了永世的富裕和幸福。41．【答案】C【解析】下文出现了thesnake，由此可知答案。最小的儿子在回家的路上看见了一条蛇，并且把它捡起来带回家。42．【答案】A【解析】四个选项中符合逻辑的只有A项，母亲认为这条蛇不能给全家当饭吃。43．【答案】B【解析】第二段倒数第二句中出现了onthehouse是提示，觉得蛇没有用便将其扔到房顶。44．【答案】B【解析】根据介词短语inabeautifullake可知，女王正在池塘里洗澡。45．【答案】D【解析】下文多次出现necklace一词。有只老鹰在女王洗澡时叼走了项链。46．【答案】A【解析】此处是说这只老鹰看见了房顶上的那条蛇。47．【答案】C【解析】于是老鹰将项链丢下。其他选项很显然不合逻辑。48．【答案】D【解析】老鹰丢下项链带走(takeaway)了那条死蛇。wakeup唤醒。putaside撇开。lookfor寻找。49．【答案】A【解析】前文提到老鹰将项链丢在了房顶，再结合下文可知，此处应该是说那位老妇人看到了房顶的项链。50．【答案】A【解析】老鹰是趁女王不备时叼走了项链，因此可以理解为这个项链是被偷走的。51．【答案】C【解析】所填词修饰动词want表示该动词的程度。女王很想弄回项链。badly此处意为“极其”，而不是“糟糕地”。52．【答案】B【解析】此处应该选择表示时间概念的连接词。When“当……的时候”。53．【答案】C【解析】女王见到失而复得的项链当然是非常高兴的。54．【答案】B【解析】本句句首的连词but是解题的关键。女王要给老妇人一大笔钱，但是她却谢绝了。decline谢绝。如果选择D项则应该将but改为and。55．【答案】D【解析】所选动词的宾语是oillamps，再结合下文内容可知，老妇人请求女王在排灯节那天只允许她家点油灯。light点燃。56．【答案】C【解析】是老妇人将项链还给她的，因此女王应该非常感激她。此处是so...that句型，表明了女王感激的程度，因为心存感激从而答应了老妇人的请求。57．【答案】D【解析】空后面说的“看见一片漆黑
