35.D【分析】本文属于说明文，介绍信用分数在美国非常重要，涉及到生活的方方面面，而中国留学生在这方面的知识缺乏和重视程度不够，最后提供几条关于提升信用分数的方法。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段ShewenttoVerizon,theU.S’largestwirelesscommunicationserviceprovider,onlytobetoldthatshecouldn’tenjoytheservicebecausehercreditscorewasn’thighenough.可知，由于信用分数过低，无法开通电视和宽带服务，故选A。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段ManyChineseoverseasstudentslackthenecessaryknowledgeaboutcreditscores,eventhoughit’swidelyusedintheireverydaylives.可知，尽管信用分数涉及到生活的方方面面，但是中国留学生缺乏必要的知识，而不是缺乏了解信用知识的渠道，换句话说，对信用分数不了解，故选B。【34题详解】词义猜测题。根据前文it’swidelyusedintheireverydaylives可知，正是因为信用用在很多方面，因此不能忽视信用评估报告的作用，甚至可以是对一个人的性格的鉴定，故选C。【35题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段Ifyou’reusingtopayoffdebts,makesureyoukeepenoughcashinaneasyaccesssavingsaccountforemergencies.可知，如果处于还信用卡的时期，确保储蓄卡里留有足够的金额以防备用，也就是说，如果没有足够的现金，很有可能导致信用卡不能按时还款，导致信用受损，故D切题。【点睛】关于阅读理解中选项似是而非的解题关键。阅读理解中，有时会遇到选项几乎与文章原文一致，如果稍不注意，很有可能踏入陷阱。遇到与原文几乎一致的选项，务必仔细谨慎，首先仔细阅读选项的句子，理解里面的所包含的逻辑关系，特别是因果关系，以及标注出里面表示程度或者表示绝对意义的词，然后仔细地与原文句子进行对比，进而确定答案。以小题2为例，D选项看似与原文句子一致，但是仔细对比，发现多了两个词accessto（…途径），正是因为这个词组，导致该选项意思与原文意思截然不同，因而不能D。19.Along-termAmericanstudyshowstheimportanceofearlyeducationforpoorchildren.ThestudyisknownastheAbecedarian(初步的)Project.Itinvolvedmorethanone-hundredyoungchildrenfrompoorfamiliesinNorthCarolina.Halfofthechildrenattendedanall-dayprogramatahigh-qualitychildcarecenter.Thecenterofferededucational,healthandsocialprograms.Childrentookpartingamesandactivitiestoincreasetheirthinkingandlanguageskillsandsocialandemotionaldevelopment.Theprogramalsoincludedhealthfoodsforthechildren.Thechildrenattendedtheprogramfromwhentheywereafewweeksolduntiltheageoffiveyears.Theothergroupofchildrendidnotattendthechildcarecenter.Aftertheageoffive,bothgroupsattendedpublicschool.Researcherscomparedthetwogroupsofchildren.Whentheywerebabies,bothgroupshadsimilarresultsintestsformentalandphysicalskills.However,fromtheageofeighteenmonths,thechildrenintheeducationalchildcareprogramdidmuchbetterintests.Theresearcherstestedthechildrenagainwhentheyweretwelveandfifteenyearsold.Thetestsfoundthatthechildrenwhohadbeeninthechildcarecentercontinuedtohavehigheraveragetestresults.Thesechildrendidmuchbetterontestsofreadingandmathematics.Afewyearsago,organizersoftheAbecedarianProjecttestedthestudentsagain.Atthetime,eachstudentwastwenty-oneyearsold.Theyweretestedforthinkingandeducationalability,employment,parentingandsocialskills.Theresearchersfoundthattheyoungadultswhohadtheearlyeducationstilldidbetterinreadingandmathematicstests.Theyweremorethantwotimesaslikelytogotocollegeortohavecompletedcollege.Inaddition,thechildrenwhoreceivedearlyeducationwereolderonaverage,whentheirfirstchildwasborn.Thestudyoffersmoreevidencethatlearningduringthefirstmonthsandyearsoflifeisimportantforalllaterdevelopment.TheresearchersoftheAbecedarianProjectbelievetheirstudyshowsaneedforlawmakerstospendmoneyonpublicearlyeducation.Theybelievethesekindsofprogramscouldreducethenumberofchildrenwhodonotcompleteschoolandareunemployed.32.TheAbecedarianProjecthaslasted______.A.almostoneyear
