大学。她嫁给了一个答应带她去德国学习的人。她在这一领域做出了重大贡献，成为俄罗斯

第一位获得数学博士学位的女性。广可知，TooMuchHappiness这本书是关于俄罗斯女数学

家的先驱科瓦列夫斯卡娅的，故选C。

【23题详解】

细节理解题。根据StoriesofYourLifeandOthersbyTedChiang段落内容中的“Thiscollection

containsseveralmathsSk）I*ies.（这本合集里有几个数学故事。）“；TheHousekeeperandthe

ProfessorbyYokoOgawa段落内容中的"It'saboutawomanwhocomestoworkforaonce-great

【24~27题答案】

【答案】24.B25.D26.B27.D

【解析】

【导语】本文是夹叙夹议文。文章作者通过阐述自己管理拖船的工作，阐述了来自拖船的哲理，团

队合作尤为重要，正如远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊，还得依靠小小拖船的帮助一

样。

【24题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中“Mostofyounodoubthaveseenthesetugspushingandpullingatthe

bigliners.Whattheyaredoingdoesn'tseemtomakemuchsenseatfirst（毫无疑问，你们大多数人

都看到过这些拖船拉大船。他们所做的事情在一开始似乎没有多大意义）”可推知，最初，拖

船的工作是不重要的，“humble”在此的意思是“不起眼的，不重要的”。故选B。

[25题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段内容“Thesetugs,whetheroneorten,moveaboutinaccordwithwhistle

signalsIsendthemfromthebridgeofthebigliner.Thesesignalsmakeupalanguagethatisjustas

dependableasthespokenword;orevenmoreso,becauseourdockingsignalsarerarely

misunderstood.Thecaptainofeachtugdoeshisworkaccordingtothesignalshereceives.He

neverasksquestions.Hetakeseverythingonfaith,anditalwaysworksout.（这些拖船，无论——艘

还是10艘，它们的行动都是听命于我在巨轮舰桥上的鸣笛信号。这些信号便是一种语言，它

的可靠程度可与口头语言相比，甚至有过之而无不及。这是因为我们的汽笛信号几乎不会被

误解。每艘拖船的船长会根据接收到的指令严格行动。而对于我的指挥，他们毫无疑问且完

全信任，它总是起作用。）”可知，远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊，还得依靠小小拖

船的帮助。因此推断本段通过讲述拖船的工作，阐述文章的主题，相互帮助的重要性，故选

D,

[26题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“WorkingaroundtugboatshashaditseffectonwhatIbelieve.

Thegreattransatlanticlinersdependonthehelpofthelittlelugstobringthemsafelytoport,andit

iswithone'ssuccess.（在拖船周围工作对我相信的东西产生了影响。远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想

安全入港停泊，还得依靠小小拖船的帮助一样。它就像一个人的成功）”可推断，一个人的成

功就像巨轮需要小小拖船才能安全进入港湾，需要相互帮助。故选B。

[27题详解】

主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是最后一段“Workingaroundtugboatshashaditseffbcton

whatIbelieve.ThegreattransatlanticlinersdependonthehelpofIhelittletugstobringthem

safelytoport,anditiswithone'ssuccess.（在拖船周围工作对我相信的东西产生了影响。远洋

航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊，还得依靠小小拖船的帮助一样。它就像一个人的成功广

可知，作者通过描写拖船的工作来揭示人生的道理，一个人的成功需要相互帮助，故选D。

[28~31题答案】

【答案】28.B29.D30.A31.D

【解析】

【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了少数族裔人群在别人念错他们名字时往往选择接收而非纠

错，并且会选择重新取•个英文名字的现象以及背后显现的社会问题。

【28题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段第二句"ManystudentsseemunwillingtocorrectmewhenIattemptto

learntheirnamesCorreCtIy.（当我试图正确记住他们的名字时，许多学生似乎不愿意纠正我）''可

知，当学生听到自己的名字被喊错时，他们不会去纠正，即接受被叫错。故选B项。

【29题详解】

推理判断题。“resumeWhitening''出现在第四段，根据上一句"Thisisespeciallythecasewhenit

comestoseekingjobs.Racialandculturalminoritiesoftenattempttoavoiddiscriminationhiring

byhidingracialcuesontheresumeincludingchangingtheirname.（在找工作的时候尤其如此。种

族和文化上的少数族裔经常试图通过在简历中隐藏种族暗示，包括更改他们的名字，来避免

在招聘时受到歧视）“可知，IhiS指代的是前一句话，即种族人群在找工作时会为了避免遭到种

族歧视而选择更改他们的名字；resume意为“简历"，Whiten为“使……变白"，D项"Apractice

ofusingWesternnamesinjobSeeking.（在求职时使用西方名字的做法）“，把隐含有种族暗示的

原来的名字换成西方人的名字填写在简历上，以便找到工作，符合题意。故选D项。

【30题详解】

细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句“Ontheotherend,thosewithethnicnamesfrequentlydon't

correctpeople,evenwhentheirnameispronouncedwrongrepeatedly,feelingitisbetterjustto

keepthepeaceandnotstandoutforbeingdifficult.（另一方面，那些有少数民族的姓名的人经常

不去纠正别人，即使他们的名字被反复念错，他们觉得最好保持和平，不耍因为太难而显得

突出）”可知，就是少数民族人群为了保持和平（避免麻烦），会接受对方叫错名字。故选A

项。

[31题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段“Itisimportanttotrytopronounceeveryone,snameasthey

pronounceit.Thiscommunicatesrespectofthemasapersonandtheirculture.Thereisnothing

wrongwithaskingsomeonetorepeattheirnamesothatyoucanlearntopronounceitproperly.

Thisisusuallyappreciated.（每个人的名字都要念出来，这很重要。这传达了对他们个人和他

们文化的尊重。让别人重复他们的名字，这样你就可以正确地发音了。这通常是值得赞赏的）”

可知，作者对正确叫出少数民族的姓名这事持支持态度。故选D项。
