【答案】21.A22.B23.C

【解析】

【分析】

这是一篇应用文。短文向读者推荐了四本书。

【详解】1.细节理解题。根据关键词“poetry”定位到SecondHarvest,结合本段中“Likethefirst

installment,EclecticHarvest,thisbookincludesrhymedpoemswhichem-ploydifferentpoetic

techniques.”和第一部《收获折衷主义》一样，这本书收录了押韵的诗歌，运用了不同的诗歌

技巧。所以SecondHarvest这本书最能吸引诗歌爱好者。故选A。

2.细节理解题。结合关键词“PrabhashKaran”可以定位到“OfHumanNatureandGoodHabits”，

结合“Researchclaimsthatmaintainingonly5goodhabits-eatinghealthily,exercising,drinking

properly,notsmokingandmaintainingahealthybodyweight-cannotonlykeepthe

lifeingoldenyearshealthybutalsoextendthelifetimeoftheoldmenandwomenby12yearsand

14yearsrespectively.”研究表明，只保持健康饮食、锻炼、适量饮酒、不吸烟、保持健康体

重等5个良好习惯，不仅可以使老年人的晚年生活保持健康，而且可以使老年人的寿命分别

延长12年和14年。可知，保持五个良好的习惯(健康饮食、运动、适量饮酒、不吸烟、保

持健康体重)可以让男性老人和女性老人的预期寿命分别延长12年和14年。故选B。

3.细节理解题。结合关键词“MarvltandGoregGetinBigTroublewithaDinosaur”，定位到文

章最后一个黑体字部分。根据“MarvltandGoreglivenextdoortoeachother,andarebest

friends.Thesetwonaughty8-year-oldsseemtogetintoallsortsoftroubles.Atthezoo,theyhave

amuchdifferentencounter^Marvlt和Goreg是邻居，他们是最好的朋友。这两个淘气的八岁

小孩，好像惹了很多麻烦。在动物园里，他们有着截然不同的遭遇.可知，这本书讲述了关

于动物和孩子的故事。故选C。

B

27.WhichofthefollowingwordscanbestdescribeMahendra?

A.Kind-hearted.B.Humorous.

C.Open-minded.D.Modest.

【答案】24.D25.B26.B27.A

【解析】

本文是记叙文，讲述了Mahendra成立印度第一个残犬、病犬收容所的过程和收容所的现状。

【24题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段第一句"Ilallstartedin1998.”这开始于1998年。接下来第二段

讲述了Mahendra散步时遇到了一条受伤的狗，然后就全身心地照顾他，直到小狗死亡。再

结合第三段"Afterthat,Mahendrastartedprovidingtreatmenttoallwoundedandsickdogshe

cameacross."在那之后，Mahendra开始为他遇到的所有受伤的和生病的狗提供治疗，综合

可知，一只虚弱、生病的流浪狗的死亡让他决定为残疾和生病的狗做些什么。故选D项。

【25题详解】

细节理解题。根据第四段“Finally,RameshBhaiPatel,anativefarmerfromavillagenamed

Jundal,agreedtogivehislandfornothing."可知，最后一个名叫RameshBhaiPatel.来自

Jundal的农民同意将自己的土地无偿让给他。即当Mahendra试图建造庇护所时，他从当地

一位农民那里免费得到一块地。故选B项。

【26题详解】

词句猜测题。根据最后一段划线词后"butMahendraisdeterminedthatnomatterwhat

challengecomestheirway,they'11fightthrough."但是Mahendra决心无论他们面临什么样的

挑战，他们都将战胜它。再结合划线单词所在句子“Therehavebeensomefinancialcrunches

nowandthen”时不时有经济方面的crunches,结合两句的意思以及两句之间的转折关系，

可知financialcrunches意思应该是“经济方面的困境，危机”，结合选项，可知crunches是

“危机”的意思，故选B项。

【27题详解】

推理判断题。根据Mahendra救助一只虚弱、生病的流浪狗，并努力建立残犬、病犬收容所

的故事可知，他是一个善良的人。故选A项。

C

【答案】28.A29.D30.D31.C

【解析】

本文是说明文。马里不断缩小的湖泊意味着渔民家庭的末日。随着气温升高和蒸发的增加，

水体萎缩导致湖泊逐渐缩小，渔民的孩子成为渔民的机会也在减少。

【28题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段“Thelake'sfishhaveprovidedhimwithawaytoearnmoneytosupport

hisextendedfamily.How-ever,becausehecan'tcatchenoughfishtofeedhisfamily,henowraises

fhrmanimals."（湖中的鱼为他提供了赚钱养家的途径。然而，由于他捕不到足够的鱼来养活

家人，他现在饲养农场动物。）可知，在过去，Traore靠捕鱼养家。故选A。

【29题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中“'Ifthingsgoonlikethis,Idon'tthinkourchildrencanbecome

fishermenlikeus.Theywillhavetochooseotherjobs/he56-year-oldTraoresaid."（“如果这样

下去，我想我们的孩子可能成为不了我们这样的渔民了。他们将不得不选择其他工作，”56

岁的特拉奥雷说。）可知，下一代人将会选择其他的职业。故选D。

【30题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段“UNofficialsnotethatthefloodingandaseverelackofrainfallcan

causeproblemsintheSahel:Foodinsecurity,thefightoverfarmlandandthefastpopulationgrowth

canleadtoconflict."（联合国官员指出，洪水和严重缺雨会给萨赫勒地区带来问题：粮食不

安全、农田争夺和人口快速增长都可能导致冲突。）可知，可知温度上升会导致水资源的问

题。故选D。

【31题详解】

词句猜测题。|艮据上文“PeopleintheruralareasWegniaandKononi-Sirakorohaveplanted56,000

treesinthepasttwoyears."（在Wegnia和Kononi-Sirakoro农村地区的人们在过去两年里种植

了56000棵树。）以及下文“Moreandmorepeopleareturningtootheragriculture."（越来越多

的人转向其他农业。）可知这里指的是这些村民通过建造石头屏障来使土壤保持雨水，从而

更好地控制水分。所以they指的是村民。故选C。

D

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一项研究，研究发现早餐前喝咖啡会损害新陈代谢，尤其是血

糖水平。

【32题详解】

推理判断题。由第二段中的“Inthestudy,publishedintheBritishJournalofNutrition,UK

researcherslet29healthymenandwomentakepartinthreedifferentovernightexperiments.Inthe

firsttwoscenes,participantsweregivenasugarydrinkuponwaking-firstfromanormalnight's

coffee30minutesbeforeconsumingthesugarydrink.（在发表在《英国营养学杂志》上的研

究中，英国研究人员让29名健康的男性和女性参加了三个不同的通宵实验。在前两个场景

中，参与者首先从正常的睡眠中醒来，然后在一夜睡眠不好后再喝一杯含糖饮料•，在此期间，

他们每小时被叫醒五分钟。在第三组中，他们的睡眠也受到同样的干扰，但在饮用含糖饮料

前30分钟，给他们一杯浓咖啡。）和第三段中的"Bloodsamplesfromparticipantsweretaken

followingthesugarydrink,whichmirroredthecaloriesofatypicalbreakfast,ineachexperiment.

Resultsshowedthatonenightofdisruptedsleepdidnotworsentheparticipants*bloodsugar

responsesatbreakfastwhencomparedtoanormalnightofsleep.However,strongblackcoffee

consumedbeforebreakfastin-creasedthebloodsugarresponsebyaround50percent."（在每个

实验中，受试者的血样都是在含糖饮料之后采集的，含糖饮料反映了典型早餐的热量。结果

表明，与正常睡眠相比，一晚睡眠中断并不会使参与者早餐时的血糖反应变差。然而，早餐

前喝浓咖啡能使血糖反应提高50%左右。），可知英国研究者们让三组健康的男女参加不同的

实验，然后通过对比参与者血糖的反应得出研究结果。故选B项。

【33题详解】

细节理解题。由第三段中的“However,strongblackcoffeeconsumedbeforebreakfastin-creased

thebloodsugarresponsebyaround50percent.v（然而，早餐前喝浓咖啡能使血糖反应提高

50%左右。）和第四段中的"Bydrinkingsuchkindofdrinkafterbreakfast,UKresearchersfound

thatourbodies*abilitytobreakdownourfoodhealthilyiscompletelyimproved.（英国研究人

员发现，通过在早餐后喝咖啡，我们身体健康地分解食物的能力得到了完全提高。），可知实

验证明：在不同时间喝咖啡对健康会产生不同的影响——早餐前喝浓咖啡会使血糖反应增加

约50%,早餐后喝咖啡会使身体健康分解食物的能力得到提高。故选D项。

【34题详解】

推理判断题。由最后一段中的"Asuptonowwehavehadlimitedknowledgeaboutwhatthisis

doingtoourbodies,inparticularforourmetabolicandbloodsugarcontrol,sowehavealongway

togo."saidProfessorJamesBetts,co-directoroftheCentreforNutrition,ExerciseandMetabolism

attheUniversityofBath."（巴斯大学营养、运动和新陈代谢中心的联合主任JamesBetts教

授说：“到目前为止，我们对咖啡对我们的身体所起的作用知之甚少，尤其是对于我们的新

陈代谢和血糖控制，所以我们还有很长的路要走。"）.可知JamesBetts认为这项研究仍需

继续。故选C项。

【35题详解】

主旨大意题。第一段讲“研究表明早餐前喝咖啡会极大地影响新陈代谢和血糖控制”，第二
