本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了四本假期阅读的新书。

1．直接信息题：直接信息题是指能够直接从原文中找到信息，选项在语言表达上与原文基本一致的题目。2．间接信息题：间接信息题是能够从原文中找到信息，但在语言表达上与原文有差异，做题时需要对原文信息进行转换。3．综合信息题：综合信息题是指这类题目所涉及的信息不是原文的某一句话，可能是原文的几句话，或者是散落在文章不同的地方，要求学生把原文所提供的信息综合起来分析，而不能断章取义。4~7.【答案】A、D、B、C【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据文章第一段MyhusbandandIalwayswantedtogototheCaribbeanbutdidn'tknowmuchabouttheislandsorhowweweregoingtoaffordit.Bychance，afriendofoursinAustraliamentioned"petsitting"andthatitissomethingyoucandoallovertheworld.（我丈夫和我一直想去加勒比海，但不太了解那里的岛屿，也不知道我们如何负担得起。一个偶然的机会，我们在澳大利亚的一个朋友提到了"宠物托管"，这是一件你在世界各地都可以做的事情。）可知作者靠照看宠物来支付旅行费用。因此A.Tocovertravelexpenses.（支付旅行费用。）符合题意。A.To

cover

travel

expenses.支付旅行费用；B.To

raise

fund.筹集资金；C.To

conserve

the

environment.保护环境；D.To

beautiful

（2）推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段It'sbeenoverthreeyearsnowandwecontinuetodowhatwecan.Thisjourneyhasledustosomeamazingplaces，workingwithgreatbrandsandevenorganizingacountry-widebeachclean-up

campaigninGrenada.（现在已经过去三年了，我们会继续尽我们所能。这段旅程带我们去了一些令人惊叹的地方，我们与知名品牌合作，甚至在格林纳达组织了一次全国性的海滩清洁运动。）可知作者打算通过她的故事来表达应该采取行动来对抗塑料污染。故选D。

（3）观点态度题。根据文章最后一段Ouraimnowistokeepongoing.Weloveconnectingwithlike-mindedpeople.It'sbeenamazingfewyearsthatwassparkedbyaconversationaboutpetsitting.Whowouldhaveguessed？（我们现在的目标是继续前进。我们喜欢和志趣相投的人交流。几年来，一次关于照看宠物的谈话引发了人们的兴趣，这真是太棒了。谁会想到呢？）可知作者觉得她在加勒比海的经历很有意义。A.Challenging.挑战性的；B.Significant.有意义的；C.Adventurous.冒险的；D.Unbearable.难以忍受的。故选B。

（4）标题归纳题。根据文章倒数第二段It'sbeenoverthreeyearsnowandwecontinuetodowhatwecan.Thisjourneyhasledustosomeamazingplaces，workingwithgreatbrandsandevenorganizingacountry-widebeachclean-upcampaigninGrenada.现在已经过去三年了，我们会继续尽我们所能。这段旅程带我们去了一些令人惊叹的地方，我们与知名品牌合作，甚至在格林纳达组织了一次全国性的海滩清洁运动。）可知本文主要写了作者和丈夫通过宠物照顾工作实现了去加勒比海旅行的愿望。因此C.UnexpectedGainsfromPetSittingTravel（宠物照看旅行的意外收获）是本文的最佳标题。故选C。

本文是一篇记叙文。主要写了作者和丈夫通过宠物照顾工作实现了去加勒比海旅行的愿望。

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。8~11.【答案】B、B、D、C【解析】【文章大意】本文介绍了网络安全公司LucideusTech发明了一款名为SafeMe的网络风险评估软件。

1.

根据全文内容尤其是倒数第二段中的Sowhatwearetryingtodo...yourowncyber-securityriskstatus（因此，我们试图通过SafeMe为你提供一个私人助手，当涉及到了解自己的网络安全风险状况时，你可以依靠它）可知，文章主要是站在LucideusTech联合创始人兼首席执行官SaketModi的角度，向读者介绍SafeMe这款应用程序，目的是推广宣传这款应用程序，让更多的人使用它。故选B。

2.

根据第三段中的Whenaregularuseropensthe"SafeMe"app,theywillseeascorehasbeengiventothemabouttheircyber-safetyrisk.（当一个普通用户打开“SafeMe”应用程序时，他们会看到一个关于他们网络安全风险的评分。）可知，SafeMe能提供有关网络安全风险的评分。故选B。

3.

根据最后一段Modipointedoutthatwith..."Soourapplicationcangive...ownriskstatus,"headded.（Modi指出，随着新冠肺炎疫情的流行，越来越多的员工在家办公，专业工作空间和个人空间之间的区别已经消失。“因此，我们的应用程序可以让用户和员工直接了解自己的风险状况，”他补充说。）可知，在现有大环境下，这款应用程序的实用性还是很强的。故选D。

4.

通读全文可知，本文介绍了网络安全公司LucideusTech发明了一款名为SafeMe的网络风险评估软件，与科技有关，因此本文最有可能在IT杂志上出现。故选C。12~15.【答案】A、C、D、B【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段中People

trying

to

Dr

Joel

that

anxiety

is

a

normal

emotional

response."（临床心理学家JoelMinden博士说："人们经常花太多时间和精力来消除焦虑。我鼓励他们记住，焦虑是一种正常的情绪反应。"）可知，JoelMinden医生对焦虑的看法是它经常被不恰当的处理。故选A。

（2）词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句子If

you

try

to

banish

anxiety，all

you're

doing

is

putting

it

more

at

the

forefront

of

your

mind.（如果你试图消除焦虑，你所做的就是把它更多地放在你的脑海中。）可知，划线词意思是"消除"和control"控制"意思接近。A.Identify.识别；B.Hide隐藏；C.Control控制；D.Overlook忽视。故选C。

（3）推理判断题。根据第三段ThiswayofrelatingtoanxietyhasbeenapowerfulstrategyforJohnBateman，the52-drivehisdecisions.Overtheyears，Batemanhasnoticedthatifhesubmitstohisthoughts，theydon'tgoawaybutdramaticallyincrease.Butifherecognizesthemforwhattheyare，justapassingthoughtandnotafactthatneedstobeactedon，theygraduallygoaway.（这种与焦虑有关的方式对约翰•贝特曼来说是一种强有力的策略，52岁的他推动了自己的决定。多年来，贝特曼注意到，如果他服从自己的想法，这些想法不会消失，而是急剧增加。但如果他认识到它们的本质，只是一个短暂的想法，而不是需要采取行动的事实，它们就会逐渐消失。）可推知，作者在第三段提到JohnBateman是为了提出一个成功的案例。故选D。

（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段中Whileacceptanceisthefirstandmostimportantsteptotake，somelifestylechangeshavebeenproventotaketheedgeoff，aswell.Sincetiredness，increasedtensionandstressleaveusmucheasiertofallintoanxiety，awell-balanceddiet，sufficientrestand，especially，regularexercisecanhelpusmanageitbetter.（虽然接受是第一步，也是最重要的一步，但事实证明，一些生活方式的改变被证明可以减轻压力。由于疲劳，增加的紧张和压力使我们更容易陷入焦虑，均衡的饮食，充分的休息，特别是有规律的锻炼可以帮助我们更好地控制这种情绪）可推知，建议调整生活方式来应对焦虑。故选B。
