答案和解析1~3.【答案】B、D、D【解析】（1）数字计算题。由本文FamousFoodFestival部分中的Admission：＄14atthedoor，＄7ages8-12，freeages7younger.（门票：门票14美元，8-12岁7美元，7岁以下免费。）可知一对夫妻两人是2乘以14，为28美元，6岁的孩子是免费的，10岁的孩子需要7美元，所以总共是35美元。故选B。

（2）细节理解题。由本文LightkeepersBehindtheScenesTours部分中的Admission：＄20，advancereservationsrequired.（门票：20美元，需提前预订。）可知去LightkeepersBehindtheScenesTours需要提前预定。故选D。

（3）推理判断题。由本文MontaukFamilyFallFestival部分中的Thefestivalincludesliveentertainmentwithmusicinthegazebo，afarmersmarket，pumpkinpainting，kidscrafts，andstreetpaintingfrom11a.m.to5p.m.SaturdayandSunday.（从周六、周日上午11点到下午5点，在露天凉亭举行现场音乐表演、农贸市场、南瓜画、儿童工艺品、街头画等活动。）以及RiverheadCountryFair部分中的TheagriculturalfairincludesLIAntiquePowerAssociationdemonstrations，livemusic，flowerdecorating，sunflowerandvegetablecompetitionsandjams，jellies，cakes，piesforsalefrom10a.m.to5p.m.Sunday.（农业博览会包括LI古董力量协会演示、现场音乐、花卉装饰、向日葵和蔬菜比赛，以及果酱、果冻、蛋糕、派，从周日上午10点到下午5点出售。）可知Montauk

Family

Fall

Festival和Riverhead

Country

Fair

的共同点就是都有音乐表演，所以他们可能会受到音乐爱好者的欢迎。故选D。

本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了一些在长岛全家人都可以做的令人兴奋的事情。

阅读理解解题步骤：首先对原文材料迅速浏览，掌握全文的主旨大意，因为阅读理解题一般没有标题，所以，速读全文，抓住中心主旨很有必要，在速读的过程中，应尽可能多地捕获信息材料；其次细读题材，各个击破，掌握全文的大意之后，细细阅读每篇材料后的问题，弄清每题要求后，带着问题，再回到原文中去寻找、捕获有关信息，要善于抓住每段的主题句，阅读时，要有较强的针对性，对于捕获到的信息，要做认真分析，仔细推敲，理解透彻，只有这样，针对题目要求，才能做到稳、准。

4~7.【答案】B、A、C、B【解析】（1）B.细节理解题。根据第三段Red

was

the

most

controversial

colour.（红色是最具争议的颜色。）可知，红色最可能引发争议。A.Black.黑色；B.Red.红色；C.Yellow.黄色；D.Brown.褐色，棕色。故选B。

（2）A.细节理解题。根据第四段Most

participants

agreed

that

pink

was

associated

with

love

and

pleasure,yellow

with

joy

and

amusement,or

that

black

was

the

saddest

colour.

（大多数参与者都认为粉红色与爱和快乐有关，黄色与快乐和娱乐有关，黑色是最悲伤的颜色。）可知，大多数参与者都认为粉红色与爱和快乐有关，A.Loveandpleasure.爱和快乐；B.Joyandamusement.欢乐和娱乐；C.Angerandsadness.愤怒和悲伤；D.Fearanddisappointment.恐惧和失望。故选A。

（3）C.细节理解题。根据第五段Another

example

is

the

association

between

purple

and

sadness

that

only

Greek

participants

chose.（另一个例子是紫色和悲伤之间的联系，只有希腊参与者选择。）可知，希腊的参与者认为这紫色与悲伤有关，故选C。

（4）B.标题判断题。根据第一段First,all

participants

found

it

quite

easy

to

link

colors

and

emotions.This

was

particularly

true

for

colors

like

red,black,or

yellow.Other

colors,like

brown

and

purple,received

fewer

associations.We

found

that

colour-emotion

associations

were

not

one-to-one,but

many-to-many.

（首先，所有参与者都发现很容易将颜色和情感联系起来。对于红色，黑色或黄色等颜色尤其如此。其他颜色，如棕色和紫色，收到的关联较少。我们发现颜色与情感的联系不是一对一的，而是多对多的。）可知，文章主要探究颜色与情感之间的联系，所以最好的标题是B.The

Link

Between

Colours

and

Emotions.（色彩和情感之间的联系）。故选B。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探究颜色与情感之间的联系。

做这类题材的阅读理解时要求考生对文章先通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。做题时要在抓住关键句子的基础上进行合理地分析，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。

8~11.【答案】C、A、A、D【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。

1.

根据第二段中的Feelingdisengagedfromthetaskinhand,oralackofstimulation(刺激),doeshaveitsbenefits,accordingtoresearchersattheUniversityofCentralLancashire.（中央兰开夏大学的研究人员表示，对手头工作感到心不在焉或缺乏刺激确实有好处。）可推断，作者在第二段中暗示了无聊可能是件好事。故选C。2.

根据第三段中的Forexample,ifyoudecidethere'snothingworth…sincechildhood.（例如，如果你觉得没有什么值得看的电视节目，你可以选择关掉它，培养新的爱好。研究人员表示，这可以解释为什么在过去两年的封锁中，到童年以来首次拿起画笔的人们的创造力激增。）可知，无聊刺激了人们使得人们出现了创造力的激增。故选A。3.

根据第四段中的Peoplewho'dtakenpartinabean-sortingtasklaterperformedbetteratcomingupwithcreativeideasthananothergroupwho'dbeengivensomethingmoreinterestingtodofirst.（与另一组先做更有趣的事情的人相比，后来参加豆子分类任务的人在想出创造性想法方面表现得更好。）可知，这个实验室为了证明无聊可以激发创造力，所以推断2019年研究中的豆类分类任务的目的是创造一个无聊的环境。故选A。4.

根据第一段内容（感觉有点无聊？它可能正是你所需要的，让你产生最好的想法，激发你的创造力，或者只是让你的大脑休息一下。）及全文可知，本文主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。所以D项（无聊让我们更有创造力吗？）作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。

12~15.【答案】B、A、D、C【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的将植物王国成员连接在一起的高速公路，被研究人员称之为"木网"。

1.

根据文章的第一段Hidden

beneath

the

surface

in

the

roots

of

Earths

astonishing

and

diverse

plant

life,there

exists

a

biological

superhighway

linking

together

the

members

of

the

plant

kingdom

in

what

researchers

call

the"wood

wide

web".（在地表之下，在地球上惊人而多样的植物生命的根部，存在着一条生物高速公路

，将植物王国的成员连接在一起，研究人员称之为"木网"）"及下文的描述可知，文章主要讲述将植物王国成员连接在一起的高速公路。由此可知，第一段的作用是引入话题。故选B。

2.

根据文章的第四段"Like

our

Internet,

this

fungal

connectivity

is

also

full

of

crime.

Some

plants,such

as

Golden

Marigolds

have

been

found

to

release

poisons

into

the

network

to

slow

down

the

growth

of

surrounding

plants

in

the

fight

for

water

and

light.

Other

plants,

such

as

the

Phantom

Orchid,

do

not

have

the

chlorophyll（叶绿素）and

must

get

the

necessary

nutrients

from

surrounding

plants.

（就像我们的互联网一样，这种真菌连接也充满了犯罪。一些植物，如金盏花，在争夺水和光的过程中会释放毒素到网络中来减缓周围植物的生长。其他植物，如幽灵兰，没有叶绿素，必须从周围的植物获得必要的营养）"可知，有些植物释放毒素是给自己获得营养的。由此推断，植物的犯罪行为可以看作是一种生存竞争的方式。故选A。

3.

根据文章最后一段"The

more

we

learn

about

this

phenomenon,the

more

our

understanding

of

the

plant

life

of

our

planet

will

continue

to

change.

Perhaps

one

day,we

may

be

able

to

map

out

these

complex

networks

entirely.（我们对这一现象了解得越多，我们对地球上植物生命的理解就会越深刻。也许有一天，我们能够完全绘制出这些复杂的网络）"可推断，最后一段就是暗示需要做更多的工作来解决植物的网络问题。故选D。

4.

根据文章的第一段Hidden

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的将植物王国成员连接在一起的高速公路，被研究人员称之为"木网"。

16~20.【答案】F、G、C、A、E【解析】（1）F.推理判断题。根据上一句"Stress

can

affect

how

you

feel，think，and

behave.压力会影响你的感受、思考和行为"可知此处说的是压力的危害。所以"F.It

can

also

impact

how

your

body

functions.它也会影响你的身体机能。"符合上下文语境。故选F.

（2）G.推理判断题。根据上一句"Problems

can

be

divided

into

three

categories：those

with

a

practical

solution，those

that

will

get

better

with

time

and

those

outside

your

control.问题可以分为三类：有实际解决方案的问题，随着时间的推移会好转的问题，以及你无法控制的问题"可知此处说的是产生压力的三种问题。所以"G.Focus

on

the

first

kind

and

ignore

the

others.专注于第一种，忽略其他的。"符合上下文语境。故选G.

（3）C.推理判断题。根据上一句"Don't

worsen

the

stress

by

drinking

and

smoking不要因为喝酒和吸烟而加重压力"以及下一句"They

will

only

make

you

feel

physically

and

mentally

worse.它们只会让你的身体和精神感觉更糟。"可知此处说的是吸烟喝酒不能解决问题。所以"C.These

aren't

solutions.这些不是解决方案。"符合上下文语境。故选C.

（4）A.推理判断题。根据上一句"If

you

are

the

kind

of

person

who

is

open

to

advice

complain

to

a

friend

about

your

stress.Friends

can

work

as

a

support

group，and

they

may

provide

you

with

solutions.如果你是那种乐于接受建议的人，就向朋友抱怨你的压力。朋友可以作为一个支持小组，他们可能会为你提供解决方案。"可知此处说的是把问题告诉朋友。所以"A.Talk

it

through.把它说清楚。"符合上下文语境。故选A.

（5）E.推理判断题。根据上一句"Having

too

much
