假定你是李华，作为交换生在一所英国学校交流学习。现在你即将回国，要作为学生代表在欢送会上发言，请按下列要点写一篇发言稿:1.表示感谢；2.学习的收获和感受；3.表达祝愿。注意:1.词数100左右;2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________答案以及解析A答案：CCA解析：1.C细节理解题。根据第二段“reconnectchildrenwithnatureandoutdoorplay”可知，目的是把户外活动和接触大自然重新联系起来。2.C细节理解题。根据最后一段“confusinglycalledonitsviewerstoswitchoffyourTVsetandgotodosomethinglessboringinstead”可知，节目号召孩子们出去参加户外活动。

3.A细节理解題。根据第四段“Timespentoutdoorsisdown...hasbeenlost.”可知，花在户外活动上的时间变少了，活动水平下降了。

B答案：AABA解析：1.A根据本段内容可知答案为A项。

2.A推理判断题。根据第二段第四句可知，伺料价格上涨，廉价进口产品的竞争优势以及口蹄疫的爆发都削减了养猪农民的热情。对猪肉需求的增加并不是削减养猪农民热情的原因，故选A项。

3.B推理判断题。根据第三段第三句可推断应选B项。

4.A推理判断题。根据第四段第一句可推断应选A项。C答案：1.C;2.B;3.B;4.D解析：1.第二段解释这座大楼的名字的由来:因为其外形像一块很薄很锋利的破玻璃(averythin,sharppieceofbrokenglass),因此选C。

2.第二段谈到设计师的想法:因为这座大楼的尖顶外形是伦敦传统的一部分(partofagreatLondontradition),因此选B。

3.第五段说有些批评家不喜欢碎片大厦所代表的意义,他们认为只有非常有钱的人才能住进那里,而这座大厦所在地却是穷人区,因此他们说碎片大厦是社会贫富等级分界的一个标志。由此可知选B。

4.全文介绍的是英国伦敦的欧洲第一高楼"碎片大厦"。文章开头说这座摩天大楼的修建改变了伦敦的外观,后面说到人们对这座摩天大楼的批评意见,文章的最后一段也点明了主题,因此D项能概括本文的内容。D答案：1.B;2.A;3.D;4.A

解析：1.考查细节理解。根据第四段"Showeringcanhelptoraiseourlevelofdopamine(多巴胺),ahormone(激素)closelyrelatedtoourcreativity...Takingawarmshowercanmakeusfeelrelaxedandthereforemakethedopaminelevelriseandbring'Aha!'momentstous"可知,洗澡能提高多巴胺水平。所以B项正确。

2.考查细节理解。根据第五段的内容可知,如果一个人一整人都冥思苦想一个问题,洗个澡就有助于把注意力转移到内心感受上。故选A。

3.考查推理判断。根据最后一段的内容可以推断出尝试一些不同的事情而不是只专注于一件困难的任务是有益的。所以D项的表述符合作者的言外之意。A、B、C三项的表述要么不符合原文之意,要么原文没有提到。故选D。

4.考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“Sotrytocreateyourownway

tofreeyourmind"可知,GertrudeStein的故辑是被用来鼓励读者找到他们6己获得灵感的方式的。故选A。答案：1.G2.A3.E4.D5.B

解析：本文主要介绍了睡眠的四大要素。1.G通过第一空前一句可知,睡觉和起床的规律性有助于确保良好的睡眠。其意与G项中的"gotobedandwakeupalthesametime"相对应。2.A通过第二空前一句可知,睡得过多会毁掉夜晚的睡眠由此可推出A项"如果可以的话,白天尽可能保持清醒"正确。3.E由第三空后的关键词worries可推出E项"焦虑使神经系统兴奋,使你变得更加警觉"正确。4.

D由第四空后一句“Itisnotagoodideato

use…"可知D项"你的卧室应仅是个睡觉的地"正确。5.

B由第五空前一句每几个月需要翻动床垫可推出B项"至少每十年要换床垫"正确。答案：BCCADABDACBCADBBDDCA解析：试题分析：本文通过一个在中国工作的外籍教师的视角介绍了中国和美国在各种文化方面的差异，从家庭生活，讨价还价和给小费等方面进行比较。
