答案和解析

1~3.【答案】B、c、D

【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据GREYMARESTAlL部分最后一句

Ontheothersidefromthefirstpathisasecondpath,followingthepath,andyou'llreachLochSkeen,

abeautifulglassyswimmingpoolofmountainwateravailablefortravellers.（在第一条路的另一边是第

二条路，沿着这条路走，你会到达LoChSkeen,一个美丽的玻璃般的游泳池，供旅行者使用）可

知，GreyMare,sTail的特别之处在于你可以在LOChSkeen游泳。故选B。

（2）细节理解题。根据WANLOCKHEAD部分最后一句WanIoCkheadisScotland'shighestvillage,

whichwon'tcomeasasurpriseonceyou'rethere.（Wanlockhead是苏格兰海拔最高的村庄，一旦你到

了那里就不会感到惊讶了）可知，WanIOCkhead是苏格兰海拔最高的地方。故选C。

（3）文章出处题。根据文章第一段

HeadingoutoftheScottishBordersandwestintoDumfries&Galloway,

thereareplentyofsightsstilltoseeonthejourney.（从苏格兰边境出发，向西进入Dumfries和

Galloway,在旅途中还有很多景点要看）可知，本文主要介绍了苏格兰的四处特色景点。由此可

推出，读者可以在网站上旅游专栏读到这篇文章。A.CUltUre.文化；B.AdVertiSement.广告；

C.EdUCatiOn.教育;D.TraVeL旅行。故选D。

这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了苏格兰的四处特色景点。

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】DsDvBxC

【解析】（I）推理判断题。根据第二段Thepageswerecoveredinredwriting,pointingouterrors.There

B.PIeaSed.高兴的；C.EXeited.兴奋的；D.SUrPriSed.惊讶的。故选D。

为他的家庭不够富裕。故选D。

（3）细节理解题。根据倒数第二段WhiIeIkePtStUdyingandkePtIeaming,

IlearnedtolovetwodozenwritersIhadneverheardofbeforeandexploredtypesofliteratureIhadnev

程中，我学会欣赏二十几位我从未听说过的作家，并探索了我从未研究过的文学类型。最终，我

一名兼职学生，之后不断努力学习，终于能够写出一篇合适的学术论文的故事，说明了"有志者事

竞成"这个道理，因此最好的题目是C选项"WhereThereIsAWill,ThereIsAWay（有志者事竟成）

习，终于能够写出一篇合适的学术论文的故事。

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。
