（3）文章出处题。根据文章内容，结合文章标题Nagamori

a

delivery

company.在一家快递公司；B．In

a

department

store.在一家百货商店；C．In

a

post

这是一篇应用文，文章是Nagamori百货商店的宣传广告。

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。

阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。

二、看题干，带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。

三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。

在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。

猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

我们在做完形填空时，首先需要快速的浏览全文，把握文章的主旨大意；其次要学会带着问题到文中相应的地方，通过细节阅读来寻找或概括答案；最后理清作者的写作思路也非常重要；做此类题时，要多注意一些形容词或动词的搭配，在平时多积累一些固定搭配。

4~7.【答案】D、A、B、B【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段This

year，it

contained

about

10

percent.

"Another

year

of

high

figure，"

Barr

sighed.Things

were

quite

different

five

years

ago，when

the

number

had

been

around

6

percent.

"Now

the

snow

here

has

gotten

wetter

for

sure.We

understand

that

weather

is

weather，and

it

changes

all

the

time.But

all

of

a

sudden，the

last

five

years

have

all

presented

high

figures，"

said

Barr.（今年，这一比例约为10%。"又是一年的高数据，"

Barr叹道。五年前的情况大不相同，当时这个数字在6%左右。"现在这里的雪肯定变得更湿了。我们知道天气就是天气，它一直在变化。但是突然之间，过去五年的数字都很高。"）可知，关注雪中的水分百分比是因为多年来一直越来越高。故选D。

（2）细节理解题。根据第二段In

the

mountains，he

felt

relaxed

—

even

though

home

was

a

mining

hut

with

a

lamp

and

a

sleeping

bag.（在山里，他感到很放松尽管家是一间有一盏灯和一个睡袋的采矿小屋）可知，Barr选择留在山里是因为放松的感觉。故选A。

（3）推理判断题。根据第三段Nearly

half

the

record

low

temperatures

came

in

his

first

decade

here，and

more

than

half

the

record

highs

occurred

in

the

past

one.

"Back

in

the

70s，there

were

winters

when

we

had

over

100

days

in

a

row

when

it

didn't

get

above

freezing.Last

winter，the

most

was

nine，"

Barr

worried.（近一半的创纪录低温出现在他在这里的头十年，超过一半的创纪录高温出现在过去的十年。"早在70年代，有几个冬天，气温连续100多天不高于冰点。去年冬天，最多的是九个，"巴尔担心）可推知，在过去的十年里，零度以上的日子越来越多。故选B。

（4）观点态度题。根据最后一段Researchers

regularly

ask

him

for

data，he

said，and

he

was

always

pleased

to

share.Barr

is

witnessing

snow

fall

here

for

the

50th

year

straight.

"I

just

want

to

keep

it

going.It

is

interesting

—

it

is，I

think.And

it's

helpful."（他说，研究人员经常向他索要数据，他也总是乐于分享。巴尔目睹了这里连续50年的降雪。"我只是想让它继续下去。这很有趣我想是的。这很有帮助。"）可推知，Billy

Barr慷慨且具有奉献精神。A．Crazy

and

ambitious.疯狂又野心勃勃的；B．Generous

and

devoted.慷慨而投入的；C．Lonely

and

outdated.孤独过时的；D．Patient

and

optimistic.耐心乐观的。故选B。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了71岁的Billy

Barr常年测量山中的气温和雪中水分的含量数据，他喜欢将某一年与其他年份进行比较。他发现在过去的十年里，零度以上的日子越来越多。

8~11.【答案】C、D、C、A【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第二段It

would

save

on

fuel，reduce

overall

expenses，and

be

far

less

dangerous

than

rockets.（它将节省燃料，减少总开支，而且没火箭那么危险）可知，太空电梯比传统的交通工具，成本更低。故选C。

（2）段落大意题。根据第三段However，as

you

can

imagine，though，space

elevators

do

not

come

without

significant

questions.For

example，how

would

the

rope

stay

tight？How

could

we

ensure

that

nothing

comes

along

and

destroys

the

cable，like

terrible

weather

or

space

junk？How

would

you

even

build

such

a

thing？（然而，正如你所想象的，太空电梯并非没有重大问题。例如，绳子如何保持收紧状态？我们怎样才能确保不会发生恶劣天气或太空垃圾之类的事情来破坏光缆呢？你怎么会造出这样的东西？）可知，第三段的主要内容是太空电梯可能面临的挑战。故选D。

（3）细节理解题。根据倒数第二段Unfortunately，modern

tech

can't

solve

this

because

the

cable

needs

a

specific

strength

of

around

50

times

that

of

steel.But

according

to

Cohen，we're

likely

around

10

years

away

from

the

material

being

made

and

we

shall

be

walking

on

Mars

even

before

2040.（不幸的是，现代技术无法解决这个问题，因为电缆需要的特定强度是钢的50倍左右。但根据科恩的说法，我们可能还需要大约10年的时间才能制造出这种材料，我们甚至可以在2040年之前在火星上行走）可知，现在不可能建造太空电梯因为所需材料在技术上无法获得。故选C。

（4）观点态度题。根据最后一段Mostscientistsremainunconvinced—spaceelevatorshavebeenspokenaboutforyearsandyetalotofquestionsaretobeanswered.（大多数科学家仍然不相信太空电梯的存在人们谈论太空电梯已经很多年了，但仍有许多问题有待解答）可推知，大多数科学家对太空电梯的态度是怀疑的。A．Doubtful.怀疑的；B．Unconcerned.不关心的；C．Favorable.支持的；D．Opposed.反对的。故选A。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了太空电梯的概念、优势以及仍然存在的问题。

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。

阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。

二、看题干，带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。

三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。

在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。

猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

我们在做完形填空时，首先需要快速的浏览全文，把握文章的主旨大意；其次要学会带着问题到文中相应的地方，通过细节阅读来寻找或概括答案；最后理清作者的写作思路也非常重要；做此类题时，要多注意一些形容词或动词的搭配，在平时多积累一些固定搭配。

12~15.【答案】D、A、D、B【解析】（1）词义猜测题。划线词前的主语it指代sadmusic（悲伤的音乐），结合划线词后的withyourfeelingsofdisappointment（和你失望的感受）可知，此处指"希望悲伤的音乐能与你的失望情绪产生共鸣"，resonate意为"产生共鸣，相一致"。A．Communicate.交流；B．Cooperate.合作；C．Contrast.比较；D．Correspond.相符，一致。故选D。

Young和Bob

Dylan的歌曲中唱的那样，故文章提到Neil

Young和Bob

Dylan的歌是为了呈现他们歌中所表达的悲伤情绪。故选A。
