答案和解析

1~3.【答案】D、D、A

【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据PaintedDeSert,PetrifiedForestNationalPark,AZ中的ThiSiSfree

camping,wildcamping.（这是免费的，野外露营。）可知，石化森林国家公园露营地不收费。故

选D。

（2）细节理解题。根据WatChmanCamPgroUnd,ZionNationalPark,UT中的NOte,however,that

thiscampgroundisextremelypopular.ReservationsareabsolutelyrecommendedfromMarchthrough

November.（不过请注意，这个露营地非常受欢迎。从3月到11月绝对建议预订。）可知，如果

你去守望者营地，你需要在旺季预订场地。故选D。

（3）推理判断题。根据文章标题BeStCamPgrOUndSinUs.NationalParks（美国国家公园最好的露

营地）及四个国家公园的介绍可知，这四个国家公园共同之处在于都是户外帐篷营地。

A.C）UtdoortentCamPSiteS.户外帐篷营地；B.EnOUghCamPingeqUiPment.足够的露营装备；

C.COnVenienttraffiCCOnditiOnS.便利的交通条件；D.EnVironmentaIWarningSignS.环境警告标志。

故选A0

本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍几处美国国家公园最好的露营地。

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅

读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关

键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。二、

看题干，带着问题读文章。首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而

主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章

进行深一层的推理等.其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章

进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。三、逻

辑推理，做好深层理解题。在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，

通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表

面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer,

imply,suggest,indicate等。四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。猜词是应用英语的重要能力。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。我们要

学会“顺藤摸瓜”，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

4〜7.【答案】B、A、B、C

【解析】（I）细节理解题。根据第二段中HOWCanhemakethemStandfirm?Hebeginsbybalancing

fourcardstoformaboxwitharmsstickingout,whichformsagrid.Thenherepeatsthegridoverandover,

expandingoutward,tobuildasolidbase.Afterthat,Bryanlayscardsaroundtheedgeandthenacrossthe

toptomakethefloorforthenextstoryofthebuilding.（他怎能使他们站立得住呢？他首先平衡四张

卡片，形成一个盒子，手臂伸出来，形成一个网格。然后他一遍又一遍地重复网格，向外扩展，

以建立一个坚实的基础。之后，布莱恩把卡片铺在边缘，然后铺在顶部，为建筑的下一层铺好地

板）可知，重复的网格是让布莱恩的纸牌建筑屹立不倒的基础。故选B项。

（2）段落大意题。根据第三段中Interestinglyenough,Bryandidnotgettheideafromanyofthe

physicalbooks.Instead,hediscoveredtheuniquewaytobuildsolidstructuresusingatrickfrom

nature.Thesecretisplantcells.Plantcellshavehardwallsandfittogethertightlytoformagridthathelps

leavesandstemstokeeptheirshape.Beesusethesamekindofpatterntocreatehoneycombs.Bryan

borrowedthisideatoinventrepeatinggridsofcardCellS.（有趣的是，布莱恩并没有从任何一本实体

书中得到这个想法。相反，他发现了利用大自然的技巧建造坚固结构的独特方法。秘密在于植物

细胞。植物细胞有坚硬的细胞壁，紧密地结合在一起形成网格，帮助叶子和茎保持形状。蜜蜂用

同样的模式来建造蜂巢。布莱恩借鉴了这个想法，发明了重复的纸牌单元格）可知，本段主要讲

述了布莱恩搭建稳固结构灵感的来源。A.ThesourceofBryan,sinspiration.布莱恩的灵感来源；

B.Bryan'sspecificbuildingProCeSS.布莱恩的具体建造过程；

C.Bryan'scomprehensiveknowledgeOfbiOIogy.布莱恩全面的生物学知识；

D.Thesimilaritybetweenplantcellsandhoneycombs.植物细胞和蜂巢的相似性。故选A项。

（3）推理判断题。根据第四段中OUtofcuriosity,peoplewhocometoseethecardbuildingssometimes

pushandpoketoseeiftheyhaveclipsinside,butfindtheydon't!Once,whenBryanbuiltacardcastleat

DisneyWorld,birdskepttryingtolandonil.Asquirrelmanagedtotakedownonewallanddidplentyof

damageinside.But,amazingly,thecastledidn,tcollapse.（出于好奇，来参观卡牌建筑的人有时会

推推揉揉，看看里面是否有夹子，但发现没有!有一次，布莱恩在迪士尼世界搭了一个纸牌城堡，

鸟儿们一直想降落在上面。一只松鼠成功地推倒了一面墙，并在里面造成了很大的破坏。但令人

惊讶的是，城堡并没有倒塌）可推知，本段提到迪士尼纸牌城堡是为了证明布莱恩牌的力量是有

效的。故选B项。

（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段中Ialsoleamalotfromtakingthemapart—thedestructionshowsme

wheretheweakpointsare.Thatiswhatmynextstrongerbuildingsreallyneed.（我也从拆卸它彳门中学至∣J

了很多东西——破坏告诉我弱点在哪里。这是我的下一个更坚固的建筑真正需要的）可知，布莱

恩学到了自己不足的地方，然后下次改进。由此推知，布莱恩在最后一段表达的人生哲学是：一

个人只有超越自我，才能完善自己。故选C项。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了建筑师布莱恩•伯格如何搭建稳固的卡片建筑，以及建筑给他

的感悟。

8~11.【答案】CxBxAsC

【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段ItlSsomethingthattheAmericansingerTaylorSwiftdoesagood

jobofmakingherFrenchsoundrealisticinfrontoffansduringhertours."Aforeignaccentisapieceof

cakeforthesingers."saysSusanneReilerer,anurolinguisticsresearcheratViennaUniversity.（美国

歌手泰勒•斯威夫特在巡演期间就擅长在歌迷面前使她的法语听起来逼真。"外国口音对歌手来说

是小菜一碟。“维也纳大学的神经语言学研究员苏珊娜•韦勒说。）可知，在第一段中，作者想告

诉我们泰勒•斯威夫特模仿语言的能力。故选C。

（2）词句猜测题。根据划线词后半句thenyouhavemorepowerbasicallyinyourhearingareas.（那

么你的听觉区域就会更强大。）可知，如果一个人在音乐方面有很强的倾向，那么其听觉区域就

会更强大。所以predisposition为"倾向；条件”之意。A.Interest.兴趣；B.ConditiOn.条件；C.Training.

训练；D.KnOWledge.知识O故选Bo

（3）推理判断题。根据第二段Reiterer1Steamfoundthatsingershadanadvantageoverinstrumentalists
