章介绍了泰国、瓦努阿图、日本和斯里兰卡这四个国家发生在这三个

月里的节日。

21.Whatdoestheunderlinedphrase“monsoonseason“probablyrefer

to?

A.Windyseason.B.Rainyseason.

C.Dryseason.D.Foggyseason.

whichwillbringtherainmanypeoplehavebeenlookingforwardto是

which引导的非限制性定语从句修饰限定先行词thecomingmonsoon

22.WhomaybemostinterestedinNaghol?

A.Agardener.B.Asportslover.

C.Awoodcutter.D.Amusicfan.

【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据Naghol—Vanuatu部分可知，该节日

最著名的是它的“陆地弹跳仪式〃。在仪式上，男人和男孩们从高高的木

塔上俯冲到地面，脚踝上只系有两根细细的葡萄藤蔓。由此推断，一个

体育爱好者可能对这种陆地蹦极最感兴趣，故选B。

23.WhatcanpeopleenjoyduringSinhaleseNewYear?

A.Summertimesunshine.

B.AncientArchitecture.

C.Traditionaldances.

D.Excellentfood.

【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据最后一段的Therearealotofdelicious

【文章大意】文章主要讲述了一个圣诞节的习俗：圣诞节早上在你的长

袜里发现了橘子，然而事实证明，关于为什么人们开始在圣诞袜里放

橘子有很多争论。

24.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“reputation“inParagraph2mean?

A.Greatsystem.B.Futuregeneration.

C.Bigcelebration.D.Goodname.

【解析】选D。词义猜测题。根据单词所在句子St.Nickhashada

reputationforbeinggenerouseversince中介词for意为“凭借；因为"，

即beinggenerous（慷慨的）为原因，这是一个褒扬的词语，因此可以推

断hadareputation可以理解为“有一个好名声”，D项Goodname（美名）

为同义表达。故选D。

25.Whyaretheorangesaremindertosharewhatyouhavewithothers?

A.BecauseDecemberistheseasonofgiving.

B.Becausemanyfamiliescouldn'taffordtobuyChristmasgiftsorcandy.

C.Becausetheorangesarethoughttorepresentthegoldheleftthegirls.

D.Becausetheorangeswereoncea“specialtreat"inwinter.

【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据文章末段Anotherexplanationisthatthe

orangesarearemindertosharewhatyouhavewithothers,asDecember

istheseasonofgiving.（另一种解释是，橘子是提醒你与他人分享你所

拥有的，因为12月是给予的季节。）可知，12月被看作为给予的季节。

故选A。

26.Howmanyargumentsarethereaccordingtothepassage?

A.2.B.3C.4.D.5.

【解析】选C。细节理解题。文章结构为总分结构，首段为中心论点，其

他段落分别提出了分论点。第二段提出第1个分论点theorangesare

thoughttorepresentthegoldheleftthegirls;第三段提出第2个分论点

Somebelieve,ontheotherhand,thatthepracticebeganduringtheGreat

Depression;第四段提出第3个分论点Anotherexplanationisthatthe

orangesarearemindertosharewhatyouhavewithothers,asDecember

istheseasonofgiving和第4个分论点Andfinally,somethinktheoranges

w因此可知，文章有个分论点。故

选C。

27.Whatcanwelearnfromthepassage?

A.PeoplecanonlyputorangesinChristmasStockings.

B.ManyfamilieswererichduringtheGreatDepression.

C.St.Nicholashelpedthemanpayforhisdaughters'weddings.

D.Theorangeswerenota“specialtreat“inwinterforchildrenlivingin

thesouth.

【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据文章第二段可知，根据圣・尼古拉斯（现

在被称为圣诞老人）的最初的故事，圣人给了一个穷人三袋金子。这些

钱帮助他支付女儿的婚礼费用。由此判断C选项St.Nicholashelpedthe

manpayforhisdaughtersfweddings.（圣•尼古拉斯帮助这个人支付他

女儿的婚礼费用）论述正确。

C

【文章大意】文章介绍了一种新的艺术形式一一快闪。根据维基百科可

知，"快闪”一词是BillWasik在2003年原创的。不到一年的功夫,这个

词就进入到了简明牛津英语词典中。快闪是都市时尚文化的一种，是

一种现代的流行的应该被庆贺的艺术形式。

28.Whatdoestheunderlinedword"baffled"inParagraph1

mean?

A.Excited.B.Puzzled.

C.Satisfied.D.Disappointed.

【解析】选B。词义猜测题。根据第一Atfirst,onlookersarebaffled,

thentheystartsmilingandclapping.Theynowknowwhatthey,re

seeing:aflashmob.（起初，旁观者们很好奇，之后他们开始欢笑和鼓

掌。他们现在知道正在看什么：快闪。）可知，起初，旁观者们是困惑的,

故选Bo

29.WhydoestheauthormentiontheConciseOxfordEnglishDictionary?

A.ToargueagainstBillWasik.

B.TocompareitwithWikipedia.

C.Toexplainthemeaningof“flashmob".

D.Toshowtherapiddevelopmentofflashmobs.

【解析】选Do推理判断题。根据第二段AccordingtoWikipedia,theterm

“flashmob“wascreatedbyBillWasik,aneditoratHarper'sMagazine,in

2003.Withinayear,thephrasehadenteredtheConciseOxfordEnglish

Dictionary.（根据维基百科，"快闪"一词是BillWasik在2003年原创的。

不到一年的功夫，这个词就进入到了简明牛津英语词典中。）可知，作者

之所以提到ConciseOxfordEnglishDictionary,是要说明"快闪"一词发展

得如此之快，故选D。

30.WhatisspecialaboutMp3ExperimentEight?

A.Itwasplayedonline.

B.Itwastheearliestflashmob.

C.Itwasplayedwithnosound.

D.Itwasmostacceptedbytheaudience.

【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第四段可知，一个著名的例子就是

Mp3ExperimentEight,它是2011年7月在纽约举办的一场参加者超过

3500人的快闪活动。它不同于常规的快闪是因为它大部分都是完全无

声的。由此判断，Mp3ExperimentEight的特殊之处是它是无声的，故选

Co

31.Whatistheauthor'sopiniononflashmobs?

A.Supportive.B.Hopeless.

C.Uncaring.D.Doubtful.

【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据文章最后一句Forthisreasonalone,

they'reamodern,popularartformthatshouldbecelebrated.（单单由于

这一个原因，他们就是一种现代的流行的应该被庆贺的艺术形式。）可

知，作者对“快闪〃的态度是支持的，故选A。

D

【文章大意】文章从诗歌节的主题、组织形式以及获奖情况等方面，介

绍了第四届人民诗歌艺术节。

32.WhatcanbeinferredaboutthePeople'sPoetryFestival?

A.Ittendstolastaweek.

B.Itisheldonceayear.

C.Itspoeticformissingle.

D.Itiscatchingonglobally.

【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句"thefourthannual

People'sPoetryFestivalheldFeb.28throughMarch2”中可知,第四届人

民诗歌艺术节举行的时间仅有三天。即使是闰年，也只有四天，不到一

周的时间，故排除A项;根据第一段中“diversepoeticforms”,排除C项;

根据第二段可知，这不是全球性的节日，故排除D项。根据"thefourth

annualPeople'sPoetryFestival"中"annual”意为"每年一度的”由此推断

出，人民诗歌艺术节是每年举行一次。故选B。

33.Whichcanpossiblyreplacetheunderlinedword“panels“inParagraph

2?

A.Groups.B.Days.

C.Topics.D.Poems.

【解析】选A。词义猜测题。根据第三段"The'Homebrewed'panelwas

madeupofalllocalpoets."可知"Homebrewed”小组由当地的所有诗人

组成，panel应为"group（组）”较为适宜，而非day（日子）,topic（话题）或

poem（诗歌）。故选A。

34.Whatwasspecialaboutthe4thPeople'sPoetryFestival?

A.Itwasonlivetelevision.

B.Diversitywashighlighted.

C.Allthepoetswerelocal.

D.Musicalpoetrywasintroduced.

【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第三段"Forthefirsttimeever,musical

poetrywasperformedattheevent."可知，音乐诗歌是首次出现在诗歌

节上，和前几届相比，它的出现是独特的。故选D。

35.Whatisthemainideaofthelastparagraph?

A.Celebratingaward-winningpoets.

B.HonoringthelateRobbJackson.

C.The4thPeople'sPoetryFestival.

D.PoetLaureateofCorpusChristi.

［解析］选A。段落大意题。根据最后一段"Celebratingexceptionalwriters

isanotherpartofPeople'sPoetryFestival”可知，庆祝杰出作家是人民诗

歌艺术节的另一个组成部分。所以最后一段主要介绍了在诗歌节上诗

人获奖的情况。故选A。

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）

项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
