答案和解析1~3.【答案】B、D、A【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据Poyang

Lake

National

Wetland

Park部分中的Approximately

98%

of

all

the

world's

Siberian

white

cranes，which

only

number

around

4，000，spend

the

winter

on

the

Po

yang

Lake.（世界上大约98%

的西伯利亚白鹤，只有大约4000只，在鄱阳湖过冬。）可知，鄱阳湖国家湿地公园是西伯利亚白鹤的冬季栖息地，故选B。

（2）细节理解题。根据LhaluWetlandNationalNatureReserve部分中的Theareaisofgreatimportanceinregulatingthelocalclimate，increasinghumidity（湿度）andimprovingtheurbanenvironmentofLhasa.（该地区对调节当地气候、增加湿度、改善拉萨城市环境具有重要意义。）可知，拉鲁湿地国家级自然保护区的特别之处在于它对拉萨的气候影响很大。故选D。

（3）文章出处题。通读全文，尤其是第一段TherearesomefamouswetlandparksandnaturereservesinChina.（中国有一些著名的湿地公园和自然保护区。）可知，文章主要介绍了四个国家湿地和自然保护区，由此可推知，本文最有可能出现在自然杂志上，A．In

a

nature

magazine在一本自然杂志上；B．In

a

book

review在一篇书评里；C．In

a

science

report在一份科学报告里；D．In

a

guidebook在一本指南里。故选A。

本文是应用文。文章主要介绍了中国四个各具特色，著名的国家自然保护区。

做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，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合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。4~7.【答案】D、B、D、C【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容He

was

afraid

at

that

time，but

he

says

'It's

really

difficult

to

enjoy

things

if

you're

scared.I

think

the

ability

to

see

how

beautiful

things

are

is

directly

connected

to

your

openness

to

them

and

fear

closes

you

down.'（他当时很害怕，但他说："如果你害怕，就很难享受生活。我认为，看到事物有多美好的能力与你对它们的开放程度直接相关，而恐惧会让你封闭。"）可知，恐惧会阻止人享受生活，阻止人们看到美丽的事物，而面对恐惧，开放自己能看到美好事物。因此，是面对恐惧，做出改变的开放让人欣赏美丽。故选D项。

（2）细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容While

diving

in

the

underground

lake

in

Namibia，Smith

got

into

trouble

again.'

But

Smith

was

able

to

control

his

mind

and

deal

with

the

situation.（在纳米比亚的地下湖潜水时，史密斯遇到了麻烦，林看着他"以一种我们可能再也见不到他的速度下降"。但史密斯能够控制自己的思想，处理好这种情况。）可知，史密斯在潜水时遇到了危险，在同伴看来，"以一种再也见不到他的速度下降"，应是几乎失去生命。故选B项。

（3）推理判断题。根据文章第五段内容Produced

by

famous

filmmaker

Darren

Aronofsky，the

series

carries

on

the

tradition

of

National

Geographic

pushing

the

exploring

envelope

and

technology

to

help

us

our

world.（由著名电影制作人达伦•阿罗诺夫斯基制作的《国家地理》系列延续了《国家地理》的传统，不断挑战探索极限，运用最新技术帮助我们了解世界。）可知，它运用了最新技术。故选D项。

（4）文章出处题。根据文章第二段内容Smith，a

Hollywood

leading

man

who

admits

that

he's

far

from

enjoying

outdoor

activities，has

put

himself

in

danger

while

Welcome

to

Earth，a

Disney

original

series

from

National

Geographic.（史密斯是好莱坞的男影星，他承认自己并不喜欢户外活动，在拍摄《欢迎来到地球》时，他将自己置于危险之中。《欢迎来到地球》是由国家地理频道制作的迪士尼原创系列。）可知，文章介绍了《欢迎来到地球》这部电影和演员史密斯在其中的经历，由此可推知，应是来自电影杂志。A．A

guidebook.一本指南；B．A

book

review.书评；C．A

magazine.杂志；D．A

diary.一本日记。故选C项。

这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了威尔•史密斯克服自己的恐惧，参与拍摄了《欢迎来到地球》这一电影，在拍摄中他遇到了危险，但他也发现，不再害怕就能拥有看到美丽事物的能力。这部电影不断挑战探索极限，运用最新技术帮助我们了解世界。

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】C、A、B、D【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第二段第一句A

recent

study

published

in

the

scientific

journal

Nature

Astronomy

concluded"that

current

practices

have

a10percent

chance

of

one

or

more

deaths

over

a

decade"（最近发表在科学杂志《自然天文学》上的一项研究得出的结论是"目前的做法在十年内有10%的几率出现一人或多人伤亡"）和第二段第二句中的there's

roughly

a

one-in-ten

chance

that

the

next

decade

will

witness

falling

space

junk

kill

someone（在未来十年里，大约有十分之一的几率将看到坠落的太空垃圾导致人死亡。）由此可知，该研究的结论是在未来，人们有可能会被太空中的坠落物砸死。故选C。

（2）推理判断题。根据第三段第三至五句While

the

floating

space

junk

is

certainly

a

problem，not

all

that

the

objects

that

went

up

must

come

down，and，in

fact，a

number

of

pieces

simply

burn

up

in

the

atmosphere.But

sometimes

those

objects

particularly

large

ones

like

spent

rocket

attachments

give

in

to

gravity

and

fall

back

down

to

Earth，to

be

dealt

with，once

again，by

their

human

makers.Typically，people

don't

die

or

even

get

injured

by

this

phenomenon

much

of

the

falling

pieces

crash

into

the

ocean.（虽然漂浮的太空垃圾确实是个问题，但并不是所有上升的物体都一定会下降，事实上，许多碎片只是在大气层中燃烧，但有时那些物体会屈服于重力，落回地球，再次由人类制造商处理，通常情况下，人们不会因为这种现象死亡或受伤，因为许多坠落的碎片都会坠入海洋。）由此可推知，通常情况下，我们不必担心太空垃圾问题。故选A。

（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段This

poses

an

obvious

safety

risk

to

people

on

the

ground.

"When

some

large

parts

of

space

junk

return

to

Earth，the

parts

of

their

mass

survive

the

heat

of

atmosphere.Many

of

the

surviving

pieces

are

potentially

dangerous，giving

serious

risks

on

land，at

sea，and

to

people

in

airplanes，"

the

study

explains.（这对地面上的人构成了明显的安全风险。"当一些大部分太空垃圾返回地球时，它们的质量部分经受住了大气层的高温。许多幸存下来的碎片具有潜在的危险，给陆地、海洋和飞机上的人带来严重的风险，"该研究解释道。）可知文章接下来可能会阐述如何解决太空垃圾的问题。故选B。

（4）标题概括题。通读全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了当前太空中有太多的太空垃圾以及这些垃圾给人们带来的危险。D项符合文章主旨，适合做本文的标题。A.Space

Junk

Causes

Pollution.太空垃圾造成污染；B.How

to

Take

Risk.太空垃圾将人们置于危险之中。故选D。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了当前太空中有太多的太空垃圾以及这些垃圾给人们带来的危险。

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。12~15.【答案】C、B、A、A【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据标题的感叹句Today'samazingnewspaperheadline（今天令人惊叹的报纸标题）；第一段的First

family

of

four

to

walk

to

the

South

Pole

wearing

Mickey

Mouse

ears

and

clown's

shoes（第一个戴着米老鼠耳朵穿着小丑鞋走到南极的四口之家）；第二段No，not

really.It

isn't

true.I

invented

it.But

I

wouldn't

be

surprised

to

see

it

one

day

soon（不，不是。这不是真的。它是我发明的。但如果很快看到它，我一点儿也不会感到奇怪），可知作者发明了报纸标题，是为了使读者对这个话题感兴趣，故选C。

（2）推理判断题。根据第五段的It's

become

a

popular

tourist

trip.People

pay

thousands

of

dollars

to

be

taken

up

the

mountain

by

the

local

Sherpas，who

lead

the

way

and

carry

the

bags.At

any

one

time

there

are

about

a

thousand

people

either

climbing

up

or

on

their

way

back

down.As

a

result，Everest

is

covered

with

rubbish

and

the

Sherpas

have

to

make

special

trips

up

the

mountain

to

pick

it

up（它已经成为一种受欢迎的旅游旅行。人们花数千美元由当地的夏尔巴人带上这座山，夏尔巴人带路并背着袋子。任何时候都有大约1000人在攀登或返回途中。因此，珠穆朗玛峰到处都是垃圾，夏尔巴不得不专程上山捡垃圾），可知作者说"这已经成为一次受欢迎的旅游旅行"，意思是攀登珠穆朗玛峰已经失去了真正的意义，变成了普通的旅游，故选B。

（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段的Talking

of

taxpayers，many

Australians

are

getting

a

bit

fed

up

with

record

breakers.A

lot

of

people

trying

to

break

sailing

or

rowing

records

get

into

trouble

in

the

seas

around

Australia，so

the

Australian

navy

has

to

send

ships

to

save

them.There

have

been

a

lot

of

difficult，time-consuming

rescue

missions

in

recent

years

costing

the

Australian

government

millions

of

dollars（说到纳税人，许多澳大利亚人有点受够了这项破纪录者。许多试图打破帆船或赛艇纪录的人在澳大利亚周围的海域遇到了麻烦，所以澳大利亚海军不得不派遣船只来拯救他们。近年来，澳大利亚政府花了数百万美元执行了许多艰难而耗时的救援任务），可知许多澳大利亚人不喜欢破纪录者的原因是他们必须为拯救破纪录者付出代价，故选A。

（4）标题归纳题。通读全文，特别是第四段的So，those

people

who

feel

the

need

for

adventure

can

only

do

things

that

have

been

done

before（所以，那些觉得需要冒险的人只能做以前做过的事情），可知很多人为了所谓的出名，做了一些没有意义的探险，造成不必要的损失，这些探险前人已经做过了，所以A.It's

All

Been

Done

Before（以前都做过）是最好的标题，故选A。
