答案：56-57AC

56.

选A。根据day4：enjoyarelaxingsoakinvolcanichotsprings提示，enjoy同义替换spendtime，故选A。根据day8：hikethroughtherainforest提示，B错；根据day7：enjoybirdwatching&crocodilespotting提示，C错；根据day7：continuetoyourManuelAntoniohotellocatedatNationalPark提示，D错。

57.

选C。根据右下角的框中他人的评论提示，故选C。ABD原文中根本没有提到B

A.reportthedamageofsolarstorms

D.analyzethepossiblecauseofsolarstorms

58.

选C。根据题目EdwardOughton提示，找到第4段第1、2行：estimatingtheeconomicimpactischallengingnow，challenging同义替换为difficult，estimate同义替换为predict，故选C。

59.

选A。根据第5段第1行提示：wilderstrategy，wilder说明了感情趋向，再来看这个idea：$100-billionmagneticdeflectorshield,positionedbetweenEarthandthesun，非常的狂野，几乎不可能，所以只能选A，unreasonable“不切实际的”。

60.

选B。通读全文可知作者的情感取向，ACD的确是文章的内容的一部分，但题目问的是作者写作目的，根据最后一段第二行：helpfindthebeststrategiesforconfrontingadangeroussolarstorm，最后一句：thisisachallengingbutimportantquestionthatweneedmoreeyeson说明作者在提醒大家阻止solarstorm，故选BC

64.Whatisthebesttitleforthepassage?

A.Measurestoboostsocialmobility

B.Timetoendtheacademicarmsrace

C.Difficultyinsolvingunemployment

D.Necessityofchanginghiringpractices

61.选D。文中第二段提及“Often,publicmoneyjustfeedsthearmsraceforqualification”在文末重提“Suchmeasureswouldbemoreefficientatdevelopingtheskillsthatincreaseproductivityandshouldsavepublicmoney”所以作者认为对于一些学生和纳税人而言，高等教育是在浪费金钱，所以答案选择D。

62.选A。Them所在的当句为“Employersdemanddegreesforjobsthatneverrequiredtheminthepastandhavenotbecomemoredemandingsince,”所以文中指的是老板过去曾经不需要学历。这里的them指代degrees。

63.选D。作者在文中提出了“Insteadtheyshouldseekotherwaysfornon-graduatestoprovetheyhavetherightskillsandtogetmoreonthejobtraining.”所以作者提出了要让辍学者得到合适的工作培训。所以D选项正确。A选项没有提及，文中只提出了让大学资格的获得更严格。B选项也没有提及。C选项文中说的是privatesector而并非publicsector。

64.选B。A选项过于片面，提高社会流动性只是政府支持大学教育的理由之一，并非全文核心。C选项偏离主题，文中探讨的是辍学者和大学教育的问题，并不是谈失业。D选项同理，偏题主题。排除法得B选项最佳。B选项包含了文中的内容D
