【答案】l.B2.B3.A

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇应用文，文章主要介绍了美洲大陆的一些海滩。

【1题详解】

推理判断题。根据SanchoBeach部分中“butitisdifficulttoaccess.Itcanonlybereachedbyboatorby

climbingdowntherockyhillsidesoneachend（但它很难进入。它只能乘船或从两端的岩石山坡上爬下来才能

到达）”可知，只能乘船或从两端的岩石山坡上爬下来才能进入Sancho海滩，由此推测是因其位置独特而

难以进入，故选B。

【2题详解】

细节理解题。根据VichayitoBeach部分中“JustashortdistancefromthewaterfronttownofMancora,this

lovelybeachisoftenquietandpeaceful,offeringsomeniceshallowwatertoswiminforlittleones.（星巨离海滨4、镇

曼科拉不远，这个可爱的海滩通常是安静祥和的，为孩子们提供了一些漂亮的浅水区）”可知，Vichayito

海滩最适合年幼的孩子游泳，故选B。

【3题详解】

推理判断题。根据CopacabanaBeach部分中“buttherearegoodspotsforsurfingandwindsurfing.Various

wateractivitiesmakeitagreatbeach（但有冲浪和帆板运动的好地方。各种水上活动使它成为一个很棒的海

滩）”和JericoacoaraBeach部分中“Locatednearthecitycenter,thisbeachisverypopularamongsurfersthanks

toitsgreatwaves.（这个海滩位于市中心附近，因其巨大的海浪而受到冲浪者的欢迎）”可知，两者的共同点

是都有水上运动；由此推知，它们对喜欢水上运动的人很有吸引力，故选A。

B

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了天才制片人和编剧NormanLear去世的消息，并回顾了他的

生平，介绍了他创作的喜剧所取得的巨大成功。

【4题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中“LeargrewupinanordinaryfamilyinConnecticut,whereanunexpectedaccident

broughtabouthisfather'sbusinesscollapse.Sohehadtodropoutofcollegeandjoinedthearmy.Inhislate20s,he

的一个普通家庭长大，一场意外事故导致他父亲的生意破产。所以他不得不从大学退学去参军。在他快三十

岁的时候，他搬到了洛杉矶，在那里他努力奋斗了几年，挨家挨户地卖家具）”可知，Lear成长于普通家庭，

因父亲生意破产而从大学退学去参军，快三十岁时得靠着卖家具努力挣钱。由此可知，他二十多岁时过着充

满挑战的生活。故选A项。

[5题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段中“Wheninterviewedaboutthehitofhisshows,Learsaid,41Ourteamreadtwoorthree

newspapersaday,paidalotofattentiontoourfamilies,andcameintotalkabouteverythingthatwasaffectingusin

ourdailylives."（在被采访到他的节目大受欢迎时，Lear说：“我们的团队每天读两三份报纸，非常关注我

们的家庭，并讨论影响我们日常生活的一切事情。"）”可知，Lear的节目创作团队关注报纸上的新闻、自

己的家庭、日常生活中的一切。由此可知，他的节目反映了真实的日常生活，这一点有助于节目的成功。故

选A项。

【6题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段MartyKaplan所说的话"Routinely,Lear'sshowsmightgetfiftyorsixtymillion

viewers.Hewasindirectcontactwiththelivingroomsandfamiliesofthecountry（Lear的节目通常会吸弓I五六

千万观众。他与这个国家的客厅和家庭直接接触）”可知，Lear创作的节目观众非常多，他与观众建立了紧

密的联系。由此推知，Lear因节目而广受欢迎。故选B项。

TuesdayinLosAngelesattheageof101.（天才制片人和编剧NormanLear周二在洛杉矶去世，享年101岁）”

可知，文章主要报道了天才制片人和编剧NormanLear去世的消息，并以此简要回顾了他的生平经历，介绍

了他创作的喜剧所取得的巨大成功。因此，文章应该出自新闻报道。故选D项。

【答案】8.D9.B10.C11.D

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人体如何对抗流感病毒。

【8题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段中“Evenifyourbodysuccessfullyfightsagainsttheviruses,withtheirabilityto

evolverapidly,yourbodymayhavenoprotectionorimmunityfromthenewones.（即使你的身体成功地对抗了病

毒，由于病毒的快速进化能力，你的身体可能对新病毒没有保护或免疫力）”可知，流感对免疫系统构成威

胁是因为病毒能快速进化，很难跟上病毒进化的步伐。故选D。

【9题详解】

词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Yourbodycandetectinvadingmicrobesinyourbloodstreambecausetheycarry

antigensintheirproteins.（你的身体可以检测到血液中的入侵微生物，因为它们的蛋白质中携带着

antigens）"可知，身体可以检测到血液中的入侵微生物，是因为微生物的蛋白质中携带者antigens。由此推

知，antigens是作为病毒指示物的物质，故选B。

【10题详解】

细节理解题。根据最后一段中uFortunately,medicalscientistshavedevelopedvaccines（疫苗）,whichare

weakenedordeadfluvirusesthatenteraperson'sbodybeforethepersongetssick.Thesevirusescausethebodyto

学家已经开发出疫苗，这种疫苗是弱化或死亡的流感病毒，在人生病之前进入人体。这些病毒使身体产生

抗体，攻击和摧毁可能在流感季节入侵的强病毒）”可知，疫苗是弱化或死亡的流感病毒，帮助身体产生抗

体来消灭病毒，故选C。

【11题详解】

主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“Thehumanbodypossessesanefficientdefensesystemtobattle

withfluviruses.（人体拥有对抗流感病毒的有效防御系统）”可知，文章主要介绍了人体如何对抗流感病毒。

由此可知，D项“人体对抗流感病毒”为最佳标题，故选D。

【答案】12.B13.D14.C15.C

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人造卫星的组成、运行方式和速度等基本情况。

【12题详解】

主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Ontheoutside,theymaylooklikeawheel,equippedwithsolarpanelsorsails.

Inside,thesatellitescontainmission-specificscientificinstruments,whichincludewhatevertoolsthesatellitesneed

toperformtheirwork.（在外面，它们可能看起来像一个轮子，配备了太阳能电池板或帆。卫星内部装有特定

任务的科学仪器，其中包括卫星执行工作所需的任何工具）”可知，文章第二段主要讲的是人造卫星的组成

部分。故选B项。

【13题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第三段uComputersfunctionasthesatellite'sbrain,whichreceiveinformation,interpret

it,andsendmessagesbacktotheearth.（计算机就像卫星的大脑一样，接收信息，解释信息，并将信息发回地

球）”可知，计算机在人造卫星中的作用是处理接收到的信息。故选D项。

【14题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段Artificialsatellitesusegravitytostayintheirorbits.Earth'sgravitypulls

everythingtowardthecenteroftheplanet.Tostayintheearth'sorbit,thespeedofasatellitemustadjusttothe

tiniestchangesinthepullofgravity」人造卫星利用重力保持在轨道上。地球的引力把所有东西都拉向地球的

中心。为了保持在地球轨道上运行，卫星的速度必须根据引力最微小的变化进行调整）”可知，人造卫星是

通过在重力的作用下不断改变速度保持在轨道上的。故选C项。

【15题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Theclosertotheearth,thestrongerthegravityis.Therefore,thesesatellites

musttravelatabout17,000milesperhourtokeepfromfallingbacktotheearth,whilehigher-orbitingsatellites

cantravelmoreslowly.（离地球越近，引力就越强。因此，这些卫星必须以每小时17000英里的速度运行，

以防止落回地球，而轨道较高的卫星运行速度更慢）”可知，高地球轨道上的卫星运行速度较慢是因为它们

在高轨道上的引力较弱。故选C项。

G.Sofollowyourdreamswithnoexcusetoliveahappyandsuccessfullife.

【答案】16.D17.B18.F19.G20.C

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要阐述了每个人都渴望成功，但成功的路上必然会遇到障碍，只有勤奋的

人才能克服障碍。作者给出了一些方法可以帮助人们变得勤奋，最后实现成功。

【16题详解】

根据上文“Buthurdlesareboundtocomeuponthewaytosuccess,discouragingyoufromyourgoal."（但是，

在通往成功的道路上必然会遇到障碍，阻碍你实现目标。）以及下文“Herearesomewaysthatmayhelpyou

tobediligentandwriteyourownsuccessstory.n（这里有一些方法可以帮助你变得勤奋，让你书写自己的成

功故事。）可知，这里缺少一个承上启下的句子。D项中的them指代前文中的hurdles,然后句中又指出只

有diligent可以克服这些障碍，刚好起着承上启下的作用。D.Infact,onlythosewhoarediligentcanovercome

them.（事实上，只有那些勤奋的人才能克服它们。）符合语境。故选D项。

【17题详解】

根据上文“Firstofall,havingaclearvisionisessentialtobediligentinlife.Ifyouarenotclearaboutwhatyou

wanttoachieveinlife,youwilllosedirection,motivationandenthusiasminlife."（首先，在生活中，有一个清

晰愿景是勤奋必不可少的因素。如果你不清楚自己想要在生活中实现什么，你就会失去生活的方向、动力

和热情。）可知，首先要有个明确的目标，才有勤奋努力的方向。B项中的Ontheotherhand与上文形成对

比，ifyouare省略了clearaboutwhatyouwanttoachieveinlifeo所以B.Ontheotherhand,ifyouare,youwill

staydiligent.（相反，如果清楚自己想要在生活中实现什，你会保持勤奋。）符合语境。故选B项。

【18题详解】

根据下文“Properplanningenablesustoturnmostofthegoalsintorealitywithoutregretsinlaterpartoflife.

Havingaplaninadvance,though,doesnotmeanthatyouhavetoplanfromstarttofinish.Itmeansyoushouldknow

inwhichdirectionyouareheading."（适当的计划能让我们把大部分的目标变成现实，在以后的生活中没有

遗憾。提前制定计划并不意味着你必须从头到尾都计划好。这意味着你应该知道你要朝哪个方向前进。）可

知，空格处为总写句，指出提前做个计划非常重要。F项Itisofthesameimportancetohaveaspecificplan

beforehand.（事先有一个具体的计划也是同样重要的。）符合语境。故选F项。

【19题详解】

本艮据上文“Moreover,excusesarenotgoingtokeepyouawayfromregretsinyourlaterlife.Ifyoudelaydiligence

becauseofyourfamilyresponsibility,itsimplymeansyourgoalsarenotinyourprioritylist,whichiswhyexcuses

arecoming."（此外，借口并不能让你在以后的生活中远离遗憾。如果你因为家庭责任而推迟了勤奋，这仅

仅意味着你的目标不在你的优先列表中，这也由此产生了借口。）可知，借口是成功路上的绊脚石，所以空

格处为这一段的总结，告诉人们在追求成功的路上不要找借口。G.Sofollowyourdreamswithnoexcuseto

liveahappyandsuccessfullife.（所以，追随你的梦想吧，不要找借口，去过幸福成功的生活。）符合语境。

故选G项。

【20题详解】

根据下文“Otherwise,youmightunconsciouslydevelopthehabitofnotbeingseriousaboutbiggertasksaswell.”

（否则，你可能会无意识地养成不认真对待大任务的习惯。）句中Otherwise表示否则，C项中的small和下

文的bigger形成鲜明的对比。C.Youneedtopracticediligenceevenforthesmallesttask.（你需要练习勤奋，即

使是最小的任务。）符合语境。故选C项。

第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）

第一节（共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分）

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
