【答案】LA2.D3.B

【解析】

本文为说明文。文章主要介绍了2020年最受期待的三部电影。

【1题详解】

细节理解题。根据TheGrudgeDirectedDirectedby:NicolasPesce部分中的“Aremakeofthe

AmericanremakeoftheJapanesehorrorfavorite,Grudgeonceagainfocusesonavengefulghost

withalongmemory....anddirectorNicolasPesce...criticscalledhisTheEyesofMyMothera

hauntingslasher”，《怀恨》是美国翻拍的日本恐怖片，《怀恨》再次聚焦于一个记性很好的复

仇鬼魂。……导演尼古拉斯•佩塞，评论家称他的《我母亲的眼睛》是一部令人难忘的恐怖

片。从“horror”和“ghost”可以看出NicolasPesce拍电影是恐怖电影。由此可知NicolasPesce.

是恐怖电影的导演。故选A。

【2题详解】

细节理解题。根据TheRhythmSection部分中的uBlakeLivelystarsinthelatesttroubledfemale

assassinmovie,basedontheeponymousnovelbyMarkBurnell”可知，布莱克•莱弗利主演的

最新电影《麻烦女刺客》由马克•伯奈尔的同名小说改编。从novel（小说）一词可以看出该

电影改编自一本小说。故选D。

【3题详解】

推理判断题。根据WeatheringwithYou部分中的“ThelatestanimatedadventurefromMakoto

Shinkai,theacclaimeddirectorofYourName,centersonapairofteens,...《你的名字》的著名

导演Shinkai最近的一部动画片以一对十几岁的孩子为中心。由此可推断出，这部分电影聚

焦于青少年，可推断出这部电影会吸引孩子们。故选B。

B

【答案】4.B5.C6.B7.A

【解析】

【分析】

这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了，一位反消费主义观念的澳大利亚妇女，为了避免浪费，结

婚后一直穿婚纱做各种事，她认为多次穿上这件婚纱是利用婚纱最合理的方式。

【4题详解】

细节理解题。由题干关键词TammyHall和anewlifestyle可将答案定位到第二段。由第二段

的句子“43-year-oldTammyHalladoptedanewlifestyle-anti-consumerism（反］有费主.义）lifestyle

in2016,afteratriptoIndiaopenedhereyestohowmuchweasasocietyconsumed.n和“She

decidednottobuyanynewclothesorfootwearforawholeyearaftershereturnedhometo

Adelaide可知，43岁的TammyHall在2016年接受了一种新的生活方式反消费主义，

因为此前一次印度之行让她看到了我们这个社会消费了多少东西，回到Adelaide后，她决

定一整年不买任何新衣服或新鞋，说明她认为社会存在过度消费，所以接受反消费主义并缩

减消费。所以为什么塔米•霍尔采取了一种新的生活方式是为了减少消费。故选B项。

【5题详解】

细节理解题。由第四段的句子"I'dmakesureIcouldgetmymoney'sworth”和第五段的句子

“ThefirsttimeIworeitaftertheweddingwastovoteintheAustralianelectioninearly2019,“和

Sincethen,it'sbeentoallsortsofplaces.Wearingitonacrowdedtrainwasespeciallyfunny,but

I'vewornittodohousework,tofootballgamesandtothegym.”可知,为了确保从婚纱中得到

价值，婚礼后她穿婚纱去2019年初的澳大利亚大选中投票，从那以后，婚纱去过各种各样

的地方，在拥挤的火车上穿它特别有趣，但我穿它做家务、踢足球和健身；可知TammyHall

在日常生活中穿婚纱。故选C项。

【6题详解】

词义猜测题。由倒数第二段的句子“Hallsaysthatshehasgottensomestrangelooksfrompeople,

butnoirritatingcomments.Itmayhavesomethingtodowiththefactthatthedressisnotthe

fanciest,butshebelievespeoplearejusttooreservedtosayanything."可知，可能是与这件衣服

不是最华丽的有关，但TammyHall认为是人们太拘谨了以致于什么也说不出来有关，人们

并未发表什么使人恼怒的评论，只是有一些奇怪的表情，所以此处irritating意为“令人恼怒

的”。故选B项。

【7题详解】

推理判断题。由第二段的句子"Shedecidednottobuyanynewclothesorfootwearforawhole

yearaftershereturnedhometoAdelaide,inSouthernAustralia,andshemanagedtomakeit."（回

到Adelaide后，她决定一整年不买任何新衣服或新鞋，并做到了），第四段的句子"Intheend

IdecidedthatifIwasgoingtogetaweddingdress,I'dmakesureIcouldgetmymoney'sworth”

（假如我要买一件婚纱,我会确保我能得到钱的价值一一在第五段用天天穿婚纱的行动做到

了）和倒数第二段的句子“Anyway,shedoesn*treallycare,becausesheknowsshehastohitthe

goalshehassetandwearingthedressmultipletimesisthemostreasonablewayshecouldthinkof

tomakethemostofherweddingdress.n（不管怎么说，她其实并不在乎，因为她知道自己必

须达到自己设定的目标，而多次穿上这件婚纱是她能想到的最合理的方式，才能最大限度地

利用自己的婚纱。）由此推断出TammyHall是一个能把想法付诸实践的人。故选A项。

【点睛】词义猜测是应用英语的重要能力，也是高考中必考的题型。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。做这种类型的技巧之一：

要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境上下文来判断其意义，即有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其

意义的词或短语，上文或下文接着出现其定义或解释，这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依

据。命题者在出这类题时惯用常规词义来麻痹考生，我们要特别注意熟词生义，切不可脱离

语境主观臆断。如在第3小题中，要猜测irritating的意思，可从画线单词后一句"Itmayhave

somethingtodowiththefactthatthedressisnotthefanciest,butshebelievespeoplearejusttoo

reservedtosayanything.w得出，可能是与这件衣服不是最华丽的有关，但TammyHall认为

是人们太拘谨了以致于什么也说不出来有关，人们并未发表什么使人恼怒的评论，只是有一

些奇怪的表情，所以此处irritating意为“令人恼怒的”。故选B项。

【答案】8.B9.C10.C11.D

【解析】

本文是说明文。介绍了目前对女性来说比较困难的三个工作领域中两个领域的现状和原因。

【8题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段中youllprobablyhavenoticedthattherearecertainjobsyou'rejustnot

supposedtodoifyou'reagirl.However,alotishappeningtodaytogetwomeninto

male—dominated（男性主导的）areasofwork.可知虽然一些职业不适合女性，然而，现在有很

多女性进入男性主导领域的工作。也就是说女性现在工作领域宽了，有了更多的工作选择，

故选B。

【9题详解】

细节理解题。根据第六段Thegovernmentisworriedtheresimplywon'tbeenoughscientistsand

engineersinthefuture.Thiscouldaffectthewholeeconomybecause,asacountry,wecansellour

technologyandskillstoothercountries.可知科学研究领域如果没有足够的女性科学家和工程

师，可能会影响整个经济的发展。故选C。

【10题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段awomanpoliceofficermightbemoreunderstandingormore

approachable.Studiesalsosuggestthatwomentendtotrustotherwomenmorethanmen.Women

canalsobemoreunderstanding.........womenareoftenbetteratlisteningandatunderstandingother

people'sproblems,whilemenaremorelikelytobedismissive.可知女警官可能更善国军人意或更

平易近人。研究还表明，女性比男性更容易信任其他女性。女人也可以更善解人意。女性通

常更善于倾听和理解别人的问题，而男人则更容易不屑一顾。由此推知女警官更容易沟通，

故选Co

【11题详解】

推理判断题。第一段提到welookatthreeareasofworkwherethingsaretoughforwomenright

now.说明了本文的主要内容，介绍目前对女性来说比较困难的三个工作领域。随后分析了

Scienceandresearch和Thepolice两个领域的情况，所以下文应该是介绍第三个领域及情况，

故选D。

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“探测海洋有多深“，科学家们已经探测出海洋的宽度，但是

对于海洋深度的探索仍然没有定论，而对于海底的研究，也能帮助人们更好地测量海洋。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段首句"In1872theHMSChallenger,aBritishNavyship,setsailtolearn

abouttheocean,includingitsdepth.M可知，英国皇家海军"挑战者号"启航出海的目的是探

索海洋。故选C。

【13题详解】

【答案】16.A17.C18.E19.D20.F

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。家庭作业是上学的一个主要部分，是老师评估你对课堂内容理解程度的一

种方式。它有助于强化概念。文章主要就如何完成作业提出了一些建议。

【16题详解】

根据上文uSoundlikealistofyourhomeworkforthenextfewnights——ormaybeevenjustfor

tonight?（听起来像是你接下来几天晚上的作业清单一一或者甚至只是今晚的作业？）”以及

后文"It'syourteachers'wayofevaluatinghowmuchyouunderstandwhafsgoingoninclass.

Andithelpsstrengthenconcepts.（这是老师评估你对课堂内容理解程度的一种方式。它有助于

强化概念）”可知，上文提到了家庭作业，后文则在解释家庭作业的作用，可知本句为过渡

句，承上启下说明家庭作业的作用，A选项中Homework与上文homework相对应。故A选

项“家庭作业是上学的一个主要部分”符合语境，故选A。

【17题详解】

根据后文"It'sinvitingtostartwiththeeasythingstogetthemoutoftheway.However,you'll

havethemostenergyandfocuswhenyoubegin,soit'sbesttousethismentalpoweronthesubjects

thataremostchallenging.Later,whenyou'remoretired,youcanfocusonthesimplerthings.（从简

单的事情开始，先把它们完成，这很诱人。然而，当你开始的时候，你会有最多的精力和注

意力，所以最好把这种精神力量用在最具挑战性的课题上。之后，当你更累的时候，你可以

专注于更简单的事情）”可知，后文提到最开始写作业时，精力和注意力更好，之后，当你

更累的时候，你可以专注于更简单的事情，可推知本句作为本段的中心句，是在建议先从最

难的作业开始写起。C选项中thehardesttasks对应后文中subjectsthataremostchallenging。

故C选项“当你开始做家庭作业时，先处理最难的作业”符合语境，故选C。

【18题详解】

根据上文“Ifyougetstuckonaproblem,trytofigureitoutaswellasyoucan——butdon'tspend

toomuchtimeonitbecausethiscanmessupyourhomeworkschedulefortherestofthenight.（如

果你被一个问题困住了，试着尽可能地把它弄清楚一一但不要在它上面花太多时间，因为这

会打乱你剩下的晚上的家庭作业计划）”以及后文"Butdon、picksomeonewhomyou'llbeup

allnightchattingwith,oryou'llnevergetitdone!（但是不要选择一个你会和他整晚聊天的人，

否则你永远也不会完成作业！）”可知，上文提到写作业遇到了难题，后文则提到不要选择

爱和你聊天的人，可推知本句是在说明向他人求助，后文则提到了求助时的注意事项。故E

选项“如果你需要的话，可以向成年人寻求帮助，或者打电话或发邮件向同学寻求建议”符
