看编解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“摔跤”这一奥运比森项目有着悠久的历

史。

A.TheancientOlympicGameshavealonghistory.

B.WrestlingwasanimportantgameintheancientOlympicGames.

C.Wrestlingispopularallthetime.

D.Wrestlinghasareallylonghistory.

种运动有悠久的历史。

A.Becauseorganizerswantedtofinddirectlinkstoancienttimes.

B.Becausewrestlingwasverypopularacrossmuchoftheancientworld.

C.In1904,anotherkindofwrestlingtooktheplaceofGreco-Romanwrestling.

secondwrestlingeventandcalledit“freestyle”.可知，在1904年又增加了一种自由式摔跤

比赛，并没有说取代了原来那种。

语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。年仅13岁的EllaStevens正在争取机会进入一级方程式赛

车中最著名的法拉利车队，并且有希望成为法拉利车队的第一个女赛车手。

5.WhatwillEllawinafterfightingoffaseriesofchallenges?

A.She，11becomeakartingchampion.

B.She'HdriveforFerrariinFormula1.

C.She'Hhavetopassafewfitnesstest.

D.She，11becomethefirstfemaleracingchampion.

解析：选B推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知，年仅13岁的EllaStevens正在争取

机会进入一级方程式赛车中最著名的法拉利车队。由此可推知，她在赢得一系列挑战之后，

会进入法拉利车队。

6.WhyisMickSchumachermentionedinParagraph3?

A.Tomakepeoplebelievehe'safamousracingdriver.

B.ToshowFerriariDriverAcademyisdifficulttoenter,

C.TointroducethathewasonceadoubleFlworldchampion.

D.ToproveFerrariDriverAcademyishometothepromisingracingdrivers.

解析：选D推理判断题。第三段的主旨句是第一句话，后面的支撑性细节通过举例

展开。因此，本段提到MickSchumacher是为了证明主旨句，因此D项（为了证明法拉利车

手学院是有前途的赛车手的家）与段落主旨一致。

7.Whatdoestheunderlinedword"dominated”inParagraph4mostprobablymean?

A.Won.B.Ruled.

C.Placed.D.Grasped.

解析：选B词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的Afterall,afemalehasnotracedinFlfor

nearly30years,andjustfivewomenhavetakenpartinagrandprix（大奖赛）.可知，已经

有近30年没有女赛手参加过一级方程式赛事，仅有五名女性参加过大奖赛。由此推断，一

级方程式赛车是一项由男性主宰的赛事。

8.What'sthebesttitleforthetext?

A.EllaStevens：theFirstFemaleRacer

B.EllaStevens：aPromisingRacingStar

C.Formula1—Ferrari：theWorldTopRace

语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了在自动扶梯上站立和行走两种方式哪种更

高效的问题。

9.Paragraph1ismainlyabout・

A.thefunctionsofescalators

B.differentwaystotakeescalators

C.impatientpeopleonescalators

D.people*sdissatisfactionwithescalators

解析：选B段落大意题。第一段介绍了两种乘坐自动扶梯的方式——站立和行走，

然后分别介绍了两种乘坐自动扶梯的人对自动扶梯作用的看法以及对彼此的看法。由此推

断B选项概括了段落主旨。

10.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“This"inParagraph3referto?

A.Knowingthemajorpreference.

B.Makingarightchoice.

C.Weighingefficiency.

D.Countingnumbers.

解析：选A代词指代题。根据画线词所在语境可知，考虑到坐自动扶梯的效率，我

们需要考虑大多数人乘坐自动扶梯的方式，所以了解大多数人喜好的方式对提高效率是很

重要的。

11.Whatdoestheauthorthinkofthe“standingonly,9policy?

A.Unreasonable.B.Significant.

C.Impractical.D.Controversial.

解析：选B推理判断题。根据文章第五段内容可知，在自动扶梯上只允许站立，不

允许走动的政策可以增加自动扶梯的容量，所以对这个政策的评价应该是积极的，故选B

项（有意义的）。

12.Whatisthemainpurposeofthistext?

A.Toprovetheconvenienceofescalators.

B.Toshowhowescalatorseasepedestriantraffic.

C.Totellthedifferencebetweenstandersandwalkers.

D.Toexplainwhyweshouldstandontheescalator.

自动扶梯上站立还是行走不仅仅是个人喜好的问题，而且有科学上的原因。然后从第三段

开始，分别从效率、舒适度、容量三方面论述了在自动扶梯上要站立的原因。

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国一年一度的大学生篮球联赛影响力非常大，

无数的美国人为之疯狂。

1.选D箱据空格前后两句可知，这种“疾病”的影响很广，孩子不愿上学，员工无

心工作。因此，此处应选D项（大学生无视他们的作业）。

2.选F根据上一句可知，这种“疾病”实际上是全美大学生篮球赛，设空处应该介

绍全美大学生篮球赛的时间，故选F项。

3.选A根据空格前后两句可知，人们互相猜测谁是赢家，朋友之间互相打赌，夫妻

之间、同事和老板之间互相打赌，故选A项。

4.选G根据上一句中的thelittle-knownGeorgeMasonUniversity可知，George

MasonUniversity在比赛前一点也不出名，故G项符合语境。

5.选C根据上下文可知，大学篮球运动员没有报酬，参加比赛更多是为了学校和他

们自己赢得名气，但是花在赌球上的钱约有40亿，广告收入达到了5亿。由此可知，此处

应选C项（但这并不意味着比赛与钱无关）承上启下。

语篇解读；本文是一篇说明文。竞走能减轻你的体重:锻炼你的身体，让你情绪高涨，而

且不需要健身房会员或私人教练！

解析：选A细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知，最新的锻炼趋势是竞走。

2.Whatdoestheunderlinedword"overpriced"inParagraph2mean?

A.Expensive.B.Worthy.

C.Prepaid.D.Discountable.

解析：选A词义猜测题。对于复杂的有氧运动和昂贵的健身房会员来说，竞走是一

个令人耳目一新的选择。根据语境和常识可知，健身房会员是昂贵的。此处分析画线词的

构成也可以猜测出词义。over-作为前缀表示“超过，过于“，price意为“价格”，故

overpriced”价格过高的“与A项含义最为接近。

3.Whatcanwelearnfromthestudiesandresearchesmentionedinthepassage?

A.Walkingisgainingincreasingpopularity.

B.Walkingbenefitspeopleindifferentaspects.

C.Walkingisanenjoyablewaytoloseweight.

D.Walkinginvolvesdifferentgroupsofpeople.

解析：选B推理判断题。第二段中提到的科学研究分别介绍了竞走可以减肥，少患

感冒，提升个人情绪等。由此可推知，文章提这些调查研究的作用在于介绍竞走对人们的

诸多好处。

4.Whichofthefollowingstatementscanbeinferredfromthelastparagraph?

A.10,000stepsadayisneededforweightloss.

B.Theeffectofwalkingisnoticeableovertime.

C.Yourfitnessleveldependsonyourhealthexperts.

D.Changingthewalkingtimeeverydayisnecessary.

解析：选B推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，健康专家建议我们每天步行10,000

步来保持健康。事实上，你可能需要每天走至少16,000步才能减肥。你还应该通过每两周

增加5分钟步行时间的方法来达到进步的目标，并且走得更快一点。三个月后，最终的结

果就会证明步行会有很好的效果的。由此可见，随着时间的推移，竞走的好处自会显现出

来。

风靡全球。

6.Theunderlinedword“obstacles"inParagraph2isclosestinmeaningto

A.streetsB.objects

C.barriersD.roofs

解析：选C词义猜测题。该词前的over意为“从上面越过”。结合选项，C选

森解读「本文是一篇说明文。研究表明，阅读益处多多，建议读者多读书。

1.collected分析句子结构可知，collect和其逻辑主语thedata构成动宾关系，与介

词by相呼应，故填其过去分词collectedo

2.hopeful修饰名词一般用形容词，所以用形容词hopeful修饰名词pattern,在句子

中作定语。

3.longer根据语境中的比较级标志than可知，此处表示比较的含义，故填longer。

4.forces根据语境可知，此处叙述客观情况，应用一般现在时；且主语为动名词短

语readingbooks,句子谓语用单数形式，故填forceso

5.connectionsconnection是可数名词，与该句中的fromonechaptertoanother相呼

应，表示复数概念，且其前无限定词修饰，故填connections。

6.which分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰

前面的整个句子，故用which来引导该从句。

7.tocarryseemtodosth.为固定用法，此处用不定式作宾语，故填tocairy。

8.aninstruction意为“操作指南”时是可数名词，且第一次在语境中出现，故用不

定冠词修饰，表示泛指，且其发音以元音音素开头，故填an。

9.areinvolved根据语境可知，此处描述客观情况，应用一般现在时；且主语many

partsofyourbrain为复数，beinvolvedin”涉及,参与”符合语境，故填areinvolvedo

10.it空处表示对本文主题“阅读”的再次点题，giveit
