D.Anofficialreport.【答案】1.A2.D3.C【解析】【分析】本文为应用文，题材为新闻广告类。本文介绍了剑桥科学节即将举办的一项鼓励学生们参加的好奇心挑战活动。叙述了第六届剑桥科技节的通知，通知要求5至14岁的学生可以报名参加，参赛作品可以是一张画、一篇文章、一张照片或一首诗，作品能够鼓励人们探险世界。将在剑桥科技节4月21日给优秀作品颁奖。【1题详解】细节理解题。谁能够参加好奇心的挑战？根据“Thechallengeinvites,evendaresschoolstudentsbetweentheagesof5and14tocreateartworkorapieceofwritingthatshowstheircuriosityhowitinspiresthemtoexploretheirworld.”这个挑战甚至鼓励5到14岁的学生创作艺术品或作品来表达他们的好奇心，以激发他们探索自己的世界。可知是5—14岁的学生可以参加比赛。故选A。【2题详解】细节理解题。颁奖仪式什么时间举行？根据“StudentswhoentertheCambridgeChallengeandareselectedaswinnerswillbehonoredataspecialceremonyduringtheCSFonSunday,April21st.”参加剑桥挑战赛并被选中的学生将在4月21日(周日)的CSF特别典礼上获得荣誉。可知颁奖仪式在4月21日星期天举行，故选D。【3题详解】推理判断题。这篇是属于什么体裁的文章？根据短文的内容及“TheCambridgeScienceFestival(CSF)ispleasedtoinformyouofthesixthannualCuriosityChallenge.”剑桥科学节(CSF)很高兴地告诉您第六届年度好奇挑战赛的信息。由此判断出，这是一个通知。故选C。【名师点睛】阅读理解主要考查学生对文章的理解能力，本文为应用文，这种文章注重对主旨大意和细节的理解。题型考查最多的细节理解题以及推理判断题，此次阅读的解题采用区域解题的方法。所谓的区域解题，就是考生通过依次而下或关键词定位的方式找到题目在文中所对应的位置，然后根据"一题一区域"的基本方法，通过该区域的内容排除错误选项，其它段落内容对于该题没有直接影响。例如：文章的第1题，由文中第一段Thechallengeinvites,evendaresschoolstudentsbetweentheagesof5--14tocreateartworkorapieceofwritingthatshowstheircuriosity。可知，5—14岁的学生可以参加比赛。故A选项Schoolstudents学校的学生正确。B选项剑桥人,C选项CSF赢家，D选项MIT艺术家均不符合。文章的第2题，由文中第二段结尾StudentswhoentertheCambridgeChallengeandareselectedaswinnerswillbehonoredataspecialceremonyduringtheCSFonSunday,April21st.可知，April21st进行颁奖，故B选项正确。剑桥科技节的名誉写的通知，而并非官方，故排除D。BThemorninghadbeenadisaster.Mytoothwasaching,andI’dbeeninanargumentwithafriend.Herwordsstillhurt:“Thetroublewithyouisthatyouwon’tputyourselfinmyplace.Can’tyouseethingsfrommypointofview?”Ishookmyheadstubbornly--andfelttheacheinmytooth.I’dthoughtIcouldholdouttillmydentistcamebackfromholiday,butthepainwasreallyunbearable.Istartedcallingthedentistsinthephonebook,butnoonecouldseemeimmediately.Finally,ataboutlunchtime,Igotlucky.“Ifyoucomebyrightnow,”thereceptionistsaid,“thedentistwillfityouin.”Itookmypurseandkeysandrushedtomycar.ButsuddenlyIbegantodoubtaboutthedentist.Whatkindofdentistwouldbesoeagertotreatsomeoneatsuchshortnotice?Whywasn’theasbusyastheothers?Inthedentist’soffice,Isatdownandlookedaround.IsawnothingbutthebarewallsandIbecameevenmoreworried.Theassistantnoticedmynervousnessandplacedherwarmhandovermyice-coldone.WhenItoldhermyfears,shelaughedandsaid,“Don’tworry.Thedentistisverygood.”“HowlongdoIhaveowaitforhim?”Iaskedimpatiently.“Comeon,heiscoming.Justliedownandrelax.Andenjoytheartwork,”theassistantsaid.“Theartwork?”Iwaspuzzled.Thechairwentback,suddenlyIsmiled.Therewasabeautifulpicture,rightwhereIcouldenjoyit:ontheceiling.Howconsideratethedentistwas!Atthatmoment,Ibegantounderstandwhatmyfriendmeantbyherwords.Whatarelief!4.Whichofthefollowingbestdescribestheauthor’sfeelingthatmorning?A.Cheerful.B.Nervous.C.Upset.D.Satisfied.5.Whatmadetheauthorbegintodoubtaboutthedentist?A.Thedentist’sagreeingtotreatheratveryshortnotice.B.Thedentist’sbeingasbusyastheotherdentists.C.Thesurroundingsofthedentist’soffice.D.Thelaughingassistantofthedentist.6.Whydidtheauthorsuddenlysmile?A.Becausethedentistcameatlast.B.BecausetheassistantkeptcomfortingherC.Becauseshecouldrelaxinthechair,D.Becauseshesawapictureontheceiling.7.Whatdidtheauthorleanfromherexperiencemostprobably?A.Strikewhiletheironishot.B.Haveagoodwordforone’sfriendC.Putoneselfinother’sshoesD.Afriendinneedisafriendindeed.【答案】4.C5.A6.D7.C【解析】本文为记叙文。作者讲述了自己牙疼去看牙医的经历。牙医为了减轻病人看病时的痛苦，在天花板上设计了一幅美术作品让病人欣赏，由此作者感悟到：要设身处地为他人着想。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段Themorninghadbeenadisaster.Mytoothwasaching.AndI’dbeeninanargumentwithafriend.Herwordsstillhurt:一大早牙疼，且与朋友争吵了，她的话深深伤害了我，由此判断出作者那天早上心情很不悦。故选C项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段ButsuddenlyIbegantodoubtaboutthedentist.Whatkindofdentistwouldbesoeagertotreatsomeoneatsuchshortnotice?Whywasn’theasbusyastheothers?”可知，但是我突然开始怀疑牙医。什么样的牙医会如此急切地在如此短的时间内治疗一个人？为什么他不像其他人一样忙？所以作者对这个牙医在这么短时间就这么迫切想给病人医治的行为表示怀疑。故选A项。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段SuddenlyIsmiled.Therewasabeautifulpicture,rightwhereIcouldenjoyit:ontheceiling.正是天花板上的漂亮的图片让作者会心的笑了。故选D项。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段提到…Ibegantounderstand…byherwords.（开始理解朋友所说话的意思），而在文章第一段提到…Thetroublewithyouisthatyouwon’tputyourselfinmyplace…stubbornly.作者与朋友争吵了，朋友说作者的问题是不会为她着想。由此可推知作者感悟到：要要设身处地为别人着想。故选CCWhydoAmericansstrugglewithwatchingtheirweight,whiletheFrench,whoconsume（消耗）richfood,continuetostaythin?NowaresearchbyCornellUniversitysuggestshowlifestyleanddecisionsabouteatingmayaffectweight.ResearchersconcludedthattheFrenchtendto（往往，倾向于）stopeatingwhentheyfeelfull.However,AmericanstendtostopwhentheirplateisemptyortheirfavoriteTVshowisover.

D.Abookreview（书评）【答案】8.C9.B10.A11.C【解析】本文是一篇议论文。主要讨论了美国和法国的生活方式的不同，以及他们的生活方式与肥胖之间的关系。作者认为美国人在与肥胖作斗争而法国人享受着美食且保持身材苗条，由此引出话题，并展开讨论。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句“AccordingtoDr.JosephMercola,ahealthexpert,theFrenchseeeatingasanimportantpartoftheirlifestyle.”可知法国人将饮食当作生活重要的一部分，故选C。【9题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了美国和法国的生活方式的不同，而且美国的饮食宜造成肥胖，而法国的饮食可保持身体苗条，因此推断文章主要介绍生活方式与肥胖之间的关系，故选B。【10题详解】推理判断题。纵观全文可知，作者在讨论生活方式与肥胖的关系的时候，使用对比手法，对比了美国人与肥胖作斗争而法国人则享受着美食并保持身材苗条。故选A。【11题详解】推理判断题。本文主要介绍了美国和法国生活方式的不同以及生活方式带来的体型变化等，故应是来源于健康报告。故选C。DAsInternetusersbecomemoredependentontheInternettostoreinformation,arepeoplerememberless?Ifyouknowyourcomputerwillsaveinformation,whystoreitinyourownpersonalmemory,yourbrain?ExpertsarewonderingiftheInternetischangingwhatwerememberandhow.Inarecentstudy,ProfessorBetsySparrowconductedsomeexperiments.SheandherresearchteamwantedtoknowtheInternetischangingmemory.Inthefirstexperiment,theygavepeople40unimportantfactstotypeintoacomputer.Thefirstgroupofpeopleunderstoodthatthecomputerwouldsavetheinformation.Thesecondgroupunderstoodthatthecomputerwouldnotsaveit.Later,thesecondgrouprememberedtheinformationbetter.Peopleinthefirstgroupknewtheycouldfindtheinformationagain,sotheydidnottrytorememberit.Inanotherexperiment,theresearchersgavepeoplefactstoremember,andtoldthemwheretofindtheinformationontheInternet.Theinformationwasinaspecificcomputerfolder(文件夹).Surprisingly,peoplelaterrememberthefolderlocation(位置)betterthanthefacts.WhenpeopleusetheInternet,theydonotremembertheinformation.Rather,theyrememberhowtofindit.Thisiscalled“transactivememory(交互记忆)”AccordingtoSparrow,wearenotbecomingpeoplewithpoormemoriesasaresultoftheInternet.Instead,computerusersaredevelopingstrongertransactivememories;thatis,peoplearelearninghowtoorganizehugequantitiesofinformationsothattheyareabletoaccessitatalaterdate.Thisdoesn’tmeanwearebecomingeithermoreorlessintelligent,butthereisnodoubtthatthewayweusememoryischanging.12.Thepassagebeginswithtwoquestionsto________.A.introducethemaintopic
