【答案】24.A25.B26.A27.D

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了小作者想要在店里买一只宠物，他伪造了一封信，表示母亲允许买宠物。

事情败露，作为惩罚，妈妈要求他给亲戚写信，作者和他舅舅通信多年，直到舅舅去世时，妈妈很后悔没

有和舅舅多多联系，得知孩子一直和舅舅通信感到很欣慰。作者认为，信心可以增进亲情。

24.推理判断题。根据第一段“Mytrickquicklyfailed,anditwasallmessedup.（我的把戏很快就失败了，一切

都搞砸了）"及第二段"Mymumgotveryangryandfeltthatthepunishmentshouldfitthecrime.Knowingthat

mywritingwaspoorandalwaysinneedofimprovement,shemademewriteletterstoafewrandomlyselected

relatives.（我妈妈非常生气，觉得惩罚应该与罪行相称。她知道我的文笔很差，总是需要改进，于是让我给

儿个随机挑选的亲戚写信）”可知，作者做错事假冒妈妈笔迹写信，妈妈让作者给亲戚写信是作为惩罚。故选

A项。

25.推理判断题。根据第三段末句“Heturnedouttobethemostfascinatingman.（事实证明他原来是最迷人的

人）“可知，作者对舅舅是赞美的，fascinating一词表明星舅是很有趣很有魅力的人。故选B项。

26.推理判断题。根据第四段“Mymumbegantoreadthemandknewthatalthoughshehadn'tbeenintouch,Ihad

grownclosetohimbywritingtohim,whichrelievedandcalmedher.（我妈妈开始读这些信，她知道虽然她还没

有联系过，但我通过给他写信已经和他亲近了，这让她松了一口气，也让她平静了下来广可知，妈妈得知作

者舅舅去世时是很震惊，很难过，并且很后悔没有和他多联系。可是她知道作者和舅舅一直在通信，并且

读了那些信件时心情好多了，感到很欣慰，难过的心情得到抚慰，comforted和relieved意思相近。故选A

项。

27.推理判断题。根据最后——段“Itencouragedmetowritetolotsofotherpeopleinfact,andit?ssomethingIkeep

upwithtothisday.Besides,receivingaletterissuchalovelysurprise.Beboldandwritetosomeoneyoumaybe

don'tknowthatwell.Whoknowswhereitwilllead?（事实上，它鼓励我给很多其他人写信，我一直坚持到今天。

此外,收到一封信是•个如此可爱的惊喜。大胆地写信给你可能不太了解的人。谁知道会发生什么呢）”可知，

作者建议大家给亲人写信。作者通过和之前不太熟悉的舅舅通信，和舅舅一直保持通信，和舅舅维系了亲

情，并在舅舅去世妈妈伤心难过时，那些信安慰到了妈妈。由此可知，作者认为写信有着神奇的力量可以

增进关系，并建议读者写信。故选D项。

【答案】28.C29.B30.C31.A

【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自己的经历说明了使用词典的好处并号召读者去查阅词典。

28.细节理解题。根据第一段中“Istartedtoseedictionariesasfieldguidestothelifeoflanguage.Lookingup

wordsencounteredinthewildfeltlesslikeafailureandmorelikeanadmissionthatIstilldidn'tknowlotsof

thingsandanopportunitytodiscovermore.（我开始把词典视为语言生活的实地指南。查阅“在野外''遇到的单词

并不像失败，而更像是承认我仍然不知道很多东西，并有机会发现更多户可知，查阅词典对作者来说是一个

探索未知的机会。故选C项。

29.词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句力cherishmy1954copyofWebster'sNewInternationalDictionarygivenby

myroommate.IoftenconsultitduringtheeveninggamesofScrabbleormiddaymagazinereading/我很cherish我

室友送给我的那本1954年版的韦氏新国际词典。我经常在晚上玩拼字游戏或中午阅读杂志时查阅这本书）”

中“oftenconsultit”可知，作者经常使用韦氏新国际词典，由此推知，他会“珍视，珍爱”它，划线词与prize（珍

视）意思相近。故选B项。

30.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Wikipediaanswersquestionswithmorequestions,openinguppagesof

informationyouneveraskedfor.Butadictionarybuildsoncommonknowledge,usingsimplewordstoexplain

morecomplexones.（维基百科用更多的问题来回答问题，打开你从未问过的信息页面。但是词典建立在常识

的基础上，用简单的词来解释更复杂的词户可推知，第三段维基百科的目的是介绍另一种有用的学习工具字

典。故选C项。

31.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Formostofyou,dictionariesareagatewayintothatkindofunconsidered

knowledge-seeking.Theyremindyouthat,whenitcomestolearning,allowingyourcuriosityisjustasimportant

aspayingattention.Afterall,isn'tcuriosityreallyjustanotherformofattention?Followingyourcuriosityinstead

多数人来说，词典是进入那种不经思考的求知之门。他们提醒你，在学习方面，保持好奇心和集中注意力

一样重要。毕竟，好奇心不就是注意力的另一种形式吗？跟着你的好奇心走，而不是把它推开，查阅你的

词典，感受你与眼前事物以外的事物之间的联系）”可推知，作者在最后一段中发起呼吁，号召读者去查阅词

典。故选A项。

发展及影响。

32.主旨大意题。根据文章第二段的"AncientMesopotamiawashometomanyofcivilization'searly

developments.Itspeoplewereworldleadersinadaptingtotechnologicalandculturalchanges.Theyinventedthe

wheelandagriculture,andpioneeredadvancesinmathematicsandurbanization.Thesebreakthroughsarereflected

J'数学和城市化的先河。这些突破反映在楔形文字文学中，这是已知最古老的书写形式之一。）“，可知，

关于美索不达米亚人，第二段主要讨论了“他们的文明成就”。故选D。

33.推理判断题。根据文章第三段的“Theyoftenrepresentnewtechnologiesbeingcontrolledintheserviceof

humanconflictandmostlyservingtheinterestsofthosewithhighsocialpositions.（它们通常代表着为人类冲突

服务而被控制的新技术，主要为那些社会地位高的人的利益服务。）”，可知，从第3段可以推断出技术进

34.细节理解题。根据文章第四段的"Inbroaderfields,theboundariesofhowAImaybeusedhaven'tbeenclearly

explained.（在更广泛的领域，人工智能如何使用的界限还没有得到明确的解释。）“，可知，根据第4段，

AI的现状是“它的应用范围是不明确的。”故选C。

35.主旨大意题。通过对文章结构和内容的分析，再根据最后一段“Humanshavebeenstrugglingtoinvent,use

andadapttotechnologysinceourearliestcivilizations.Butthetechnologyandresultingknowledgearenotalways

evenlydistributed.Knowinghowweadaptedtochangingtechnologyinthepasthelpsusmorefullyunderstandthe

humanconditionandmayevenhelpusprepareforthefuture.（自最早的文明以来，人类一直在努力发明、使用

和适应技术。但是技术和由此产生的知识并不总是均匀分布的。了解我们如何适应过去不断变化的技术有

助于我们更全面地了解人类的状况，甚至可能帮助我们为未来做好准备。）”，可知本文主要通过讲述历史

上美索不达米亚人的科技成就及其影响来启示今天的科技发展及影响。所以短文的标题为“关于新技术的影

响，历史能告诉我们什么"。故选D。
