参考答案A答案：1.D;;2.C;3.D

解析：1.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的倒数第三句"In1793,theLouvrebecameapublicmuseum."可知答案选D。

2.细节理解题。根据第一段中的"Thefirstbuildingwasafort.In1190,itwastheking'scastlewithhighwallsandaroundtower..."及"TheLouvrebecameapalacehomeforFrenchkingsandqueens."可知答案选C。

3.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的"In1793,theLouvrebecameapublicmuseum.Itisaplacewherearttreasuresarekeptforeveryonetoenjoy."可知答案选D。B.答案：1.A;2.B;3.C;4.A解析：1.词义猜测题。根据本句”Thechildrenintheadareactorsbuttheadultssmokingareunsuspectingparticipantsintheproject.“并通过上下文的对比可知,unsuspectingparticipants与前面的actor是相反的意思:广吿里的孩子是演员,但是抽烟的成年人是不知情的参与者。故这些成年人事先是不知道拍摄这个广告的。故A正确。

2.细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句话”Thefirstadultstartedbysaying,'I’mnotgivingittoyou,’andthevideogoesontostate

'everyadultfilmedsaidnoandremindedthechildrenthatsmokingisbad.'”可知,所有的成年人都拒绝了孩子借火的要求,并告诉孩子抽烟有害。故B项说法是正确的。

3.推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段”Thevideoshowsthatafewofthesmokersquicklythrewawaytheircigarettesorputtheircigarettesaway,showingthatthisexperimentwaseffectiveatthatmoment.“可知,一些人都把香烟扔掉了,说明这个广告在那个时候是有效的。故C正确。

4.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一个劝人戒烟的广告,使用儿童演员向成年人借火来告诉我们要为了自己的健康而戒烟。故A正确。C答案：14DAAB解析：1.推理判断题。文章第二段讲述了六年前，Josh提出四年的筹资期限，许多人怀疑他是否能达到100,000美元的目标，但这并没有动摇他的信念，他开始到处筹资。由此可以看出Josh是信心坚定的，不可动摇的，因此用determined（坚定的）最恰当。故选D。2.细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的Fourmonthsbeforehisdeadline,hewas$30,000short.HedecidedtoholdaFamilyFunFairandSpaghettiDinnereventinUxbridge,whichisintheprovinceofOntario.Theeventraised$19,000.可知，在最后期限的前4个月，他仍缺少30,000美元，于是他决定在Uxbridge举办FamilyFunFairandSpaghettiDinner。目的是实现他的目标，即筹集100,000美元。故选A。3.推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的Eventually,Joshreachedatotalof$134,000beforethedeadline."Themomentumjustkeptgoing,andwedecidedtodomore,"hesaid."Josh'sPennyHouse"isbeingbuiltbyHabitatforHumanityinthecityofOshawa,alongwith24newtownhouses.可知Josh的筹资梦想实现了，并且他决定要做更多，由此可推测画线部分表示"他收到持续的捐款"。故选A。4.主旨大意题，根据文章第一段中的JoshMorrison,17,dreamedofraising$100,000tobuildahomeforalowinefamily.Afteryearsofhardwork,hisdreamhasetrue.可知文章主要讲述了17岁的JoshMorrison梦想筹集100,000美元，为低收入家庭建造家园，他的梦想最终实现。B选项符合文章主题，而且有新意，故选B。D答案：1.B;2.A;3.D;4.A

解析：1.考查细节理解。由题干的"returned...afterthehurricane"可知,答案应该在第三段。娜塔莉一家在飓风过后回到家乡,发现街区已变为废墟(neighborhoodinruins),很多朋友失去家园,并住到了很远的地方。人们都在遭受苦难,特别是老年人。从这些信息可知选B。

2.考查细节理解。由第四段第一句中的"themenandwomenhelpingRockawayrecoverinspiredNatalie"可知选A。

3.考查细节理解。由第七段可知,娜培莉建立了一个网站,让捐助者与需要帮助的人通过这个网站建立联系,以此来帮助他们,因此选D。

4.考查主旨大意。本题给出的四句谚语的含义依次为:"小人物也有大作为";"患难之友才是真正的朋友";"金窝银窝不如自己的狗窝";"技术就是力量"。本文介绍的是14岁的小女孩娜塔莉如何帮助家乡的重建工作,因此选A。七选五答案：①⑤DAGEC解析：①根据后句中的However以及thatsadness可以推断空格处介绍的是负面情绪的危害，而且和sadness有关，纵观选项可知D选项中的sad与此对应，而且内容符合语境。②本空位于段落小标题的位置，根据其他几个段落标题的句式判断该处应该填祈使句，而本段主要介绍的是健康饮食和保持健康对积极情绪的影响，故A项内容可以概括本段。③前句提到每周锻炼几次，每次至少半个小时，G项"甚至户外散步以及享受阳光都会改善你的情绪。"可以承接上文。④本段的建议是要对他人友好，而空后提到让某人的一天变得更美好不仅能让他或她的脸上露出笑容，也能让你的脸上露出笑容，所以判断E项"好情绪来源于善良、无私的行为。"符合上下文语境。其中kindness和小标题中的kind呼应。⑤根据空后的Instead可以判断设空处内容和后句构成转折，故判断C项"不要担心将来可能会带来什么。"符合语境。完型答案：1.B;2.C;3.A;4.C;5.D;6.A;7.C;8.B;9.B;10.D;11.A;12.D;13.C;14.B;15.A;16.C;17.B;18.D;19.A;20.D

解析：1.考查形容词辨析。根据…butsoonImetagroupofnewfriendsandtheywerereallynice.“但很快我就遇到了一群新朋友,他们确实很好。”可知作者开始过着孤单的生活。lonely“孤独的”;private“私人的”;colourful“多彩的”;normal“正常的”,根据句意可知选B。

2.考查形容词辨析。朋友突然患上了肾结石,这是大家都没有预料到的。unexpected“未预料到的”,符合题意。strange“奇怪的”;wrong“错误的”;unfair“不公平的”,均不符合句意。

3.考查动词词义的辨析。必须尽快做手术切除。remove“除去”;reduce“减少”;examine“检査”;lift“举起”,根据句意可知选A。

4.考查形容词的辨析。但事情没有那么简单,“我”朋友支付不起手术费用。simple“简单的”;terrible“可怕的”;painful“痛苦的”;special‘特别的”,根据句意选C。

5.考查动词的辨析。“我”朋友支付不起手术费用。afford“支付得起”;stand“站立,容忍”;consider“考虑,认为”;perform“表演”,由题意可知选D。

6.考查名词词义的辨析。要尽快动手术,但没钱,朋友肯定是很着急。anxiety“焦急”;confusion“混淆”;embarrassment“尴尬”;dissatisfaction“不满意”,由题意知选A。

7.考查连词的用法。根据Ididn’tk
