【答案】4.B5.A6.C7.D

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位叫作Edwards的运动员，他热爱运动，认为比赛的目的重

在参与，而不仅仅是赢得比赛。

【4题详解】

推理判断题。由第一段“Beinghighlysuccessfulinanyfieldisprettyrare.Ittakesacombination

ofnaturaltalent,luck,determination,andplentyofoutsidesupportforsomeonetomakeitbigin

sports,entertainment,orbusiness.Butwhatifcompetingisallthatmatterstoyou,whetheryouare

likelytosucceedornot?ThiswasthegoalofMichaelEddietheEagleEdwards,andthathereached

thatgoalwasanamazingachievement.M（在任何一个领域都非常成功是非常罕见的。•个人

要想在体育、娱乐或商业领域发迹，需要天赋、运气、决心和大量外部支持。但是，如果竞

争对你来说是最重要的，你是否有可能成功呢？这是MichaelEddietheEagleEdwards

的目标，他达到了这个目标，这是一个惊人的成就。）可知作者通过对比提问，引出本文的

话题。故选B项。

【5题详解】

细节理解题。由第二段中的“Hewouldhavelikedtorepresenthiscountryinthe1984Winter

Olympics,buttherewerealargenumberofdownhillcompetitors,andEdwardsdidn'tqualify.

Seeinghischanceelsewhere,heswitchedtoskijumping.Skijumpingdidn'tcostnearlyasmuch,

andtherewasalmostnocompetitionforaplaceontheBritainteam."（他本想代表自己的国家

参加1984年冬季奥运会，但有大量的下坡选手，Edwards没有获得参赛资格。看到他在别

处的机会，他改行跳台滑雪。跳台滑雪的成本没有那么高，而且在英国队中几乎没有竞争对

手。）可知MichaelEdwards选择跳台滑雪是因为它在英国几乎没有竞争。故选A项。

【6题详解】

细节理解题。由最后一段中的"HethenwentontotheCalgaryOlympicsin1988,wherehe

finishedlastinbothofhisevents.Manyathleteswouldhavebeenembarrassedbythisresult,buthe

isproudofhisachievementtothisday.”（然后他参加了1988年的卡尔加里奥运会，两个项

目的成绩都是最后一名。很多运动员都会为这个结果感到尴尬，但他为自己的成就感到骄傲，

直到今天。）可知Edwards认为自己的成绩不错，换句话说，他觉得自己已经达到了目标。

故选C项。

【7题详解】

推理判断题。由第三段aButanumberofhurdles（障碍）couldhavemeanttheendofEdwards,

dream.Heweighedmorethanmostcompetitors,whichputhimatadisadvantage.Hehadno

financialsupportforhistraining.Pooreyesightmeantthathehadtowearglassesunderhisgoggles

（护目镜）一notagoodthingwhentheysteamedupathighaltitudes.Buthecouldnrtletanyofthis

discouragehim.Hesawhimselfasatrueloverofthesportwhosimplywantedthechanceto

compete.Winningwasn'tthepoint.Havingtheopportunitytotrywasallhecaredabout.And

nothingcouldstophimfromtrying."（但一些障碍可能意味着Edwards梦想的终结。他的体

重比大多数竞争者都重，这使他处于劣势。他的训练没有经济支持。视力差意味着他不得不

在护目镜下戴眼镜一一当眼镜在高空蒸腾时，这可不是件好事。但他不能让这些让他气馁。

他认为自己是这项运动的真正爱好者，只想有机会参加比赛。赢不是关键。有机会尝试是他

所关心的。没有什么能阻止他尝试。）可知尽管困难重重，他也不气馁，Edwards还是坚持

比赛，是个很有决心的人，可推断出是他要赢的决心让他出类拔萃。故选D项。

【答案】8.D9.C10.B11.A

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。作者主要向我们介绍了在飞机上需要关闭手机的原因以及未来对可以在飞

机上拨打或接听电话的期望。

【8题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第二段"Whenwespeakonourphonesintheair,theycancause

interferencetotheaircraft'sradiosandpilotscanhearthisinterferenceintheirheadphones.''It'sthe

samenoiseyou'llbefamiliarwith,ifyouputyourmobiletooclosetoaspeaker,''theMirror

noted."可知，当我们在空中打电话时，会对飞机的无线电设备造成干扰，飞行员可以通过

耳机听到这种干扰。“如果你把手机离扬声器太近，你就会熟悉这种噪音，”《镜报》指出。

由此可知，乘客在飞机上必须关闭手机的原因是使用电话可能会给飞行员带来烦人的噪音。

故选D。

【9题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第二段"AsUSscientistSvenBilenexplains,forthissystemtowork,

thereare“built-in“expectations:Thereshouldn'tbetoomany“handoffs“andpeopleshouldn'tbe

travelingfasterthancarspeeds.410fcourse,phoneusersshouldbeclosetotheground."headded."

可知，正如美国科学家SvenBilen解释的那样，要让这个系统工作，有“内在的”期望：不

应该有太多的“交接”，并且人们的旅行速度不应该超过汽车的速度。”当然，手机用户应

该靠近地面。”他补充道。由此可知，一共有三个“内在的”期望被提到来帮助打电话，分

别是不应该有太多“交接”、人们的旅行速度不应该超过汽车的速度、电话用户应该靠近地

面。故选C。

【10题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Inthefuture,asBilenpointsout,itmaybepossibleforair

travelerstomakeandreceivecallsfreely.Thebreakthroughcouldbe“picocells'',whicharesmall

celltowersontheplaneitself."可知，Bilen指出,在未来，航空旅客可以免费拨打和接听电

话。突破可能是“微型电池”,这是飞机上的小型电池塔。由此推知，picocells有助于飞机

上无障碍通话的实现。故选B。

[11题详解】

推理判断题。文章主要讲了在飞机上需要关闭手机的原因以及未来对可以在飞机上拨打或接

听电话的期望。由此可排除C、D选项；从语气上看并非正式的官方语气，故B不正确。因

此，本文应该来自一份报纸。故选A。

D

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了植物育种这门科学，其目是为了生产出具有优良特点的

植物品种。全世界的人都在争论它的好处和坏处，文章解释了进行植物育种背后的一些原因

以及可能产生的问题。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段"Plantbreedingisthescienceofchangingthecharacteristicsofplantsin

ordertoproducedesiredones.Genesinaplantarewhatdeterminewhattypeofcharacteristicsit

willhave.Plantbreederstrytocreateaspecificoutcomeofplantsandpotentiallynewplant

varietiesbychangingthegenesoftheplantsthroughbreeding,whichismakingnewplantsfrom

parentsofdifferentvarietiesorspecies.（植物育种是一门改变植物特性以产生所需特性的科学。

植物中的基因是决定它将具有什么样的特征。植物育种者试图通过育种改变植物的基因，即

用不同品种或种类的根源制造新的植物，从而创造出植物的特定结果和潜在的植物新品

种）”可知，植物育种的目的是生产具有优良特点的植物品种。故选C。

【13题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中"Internationaldevelopmentagenciesbelievethatbreedingnewcrops

isimportantforensuringfoodsecuritybydevelopingnewvarietiesthatarehigheryielding,

disease-resistant,drought-tolerantorregionallyadaptedtodifferentenvironmentsandgrowing

conditions.（国际发展机构认为，培育新的作物对确保粮食安全很重要，可以开发产量高、抗

病、耐旱或适应不同环境和生长条件的新品种）”可知，转基因作物产量更高，从而保证食

品安全。故选A。

【14题详解】

细节理解题。根据第四段中“Somecanresistnaturalpestsandvirusesspreadbyinsects.This

reducestheamountofchemicalneededtokillpests,whichishelpfultotheenvironment.（有些能抵

抗由昆虫传播的自然害虫和病毒。这减少了杀死害虫所需的化学物质的数量，对环境有益）”

可知，转基因品种可以增强对害虫的抵抗力，减少化学杀虫剂的使用，从而对环境有益。故

选B。

【15题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段“Geneticengineeringisaverynewscienceandwehavealottoleam

aboutthegooditcandoandthedamageitcancause.Themainconcernisthatnotenoughtestsare

beingdonetoensureitissafe.（基因工程是一门非常新的科学，关于它能带来的好处和它能造

成的破坏，我们还有很多东西要学习。目前主要的问题是还没有进行足够的测试来确保它是

安全的）”推断出，作者对植物育种的态度是客观的。故选C。

【答案】16.F17.A18.B19.G20.D

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了了食品添加剂的问题。被商家称为“含有水果成分”、“纯

天然”的食品，实际上，所含的水果成分很少，甚至一点也没有，使用的全是添加剂和色素。

【16题详解】

根据后一句Itwillincreaseprofits,andconsumerswon'talwaysrealizetheyarebeingtricked.（这

样做会增加利润，消费者也不会意识到自己被欺骗了。）可知，故选项承接下文。故F项“如

果商家通过使用调味品可以降低成本，他们很有可能会这么做"符合语境，故选F。

【17题详解】

根据上下句"Researchersanalyzedthecontentsof28strawberry-flavoredproductssoldinstores.

Ofthe11productsthatdidcontainstrawberries,fiveofthemcontainedlessthanone

percentrealfruit."（28种草莓味的产品中，只有11种含有少量的草莓）可知，选项要承接

上文，引起下文。故A项“60%的产品都不含任何水果成分”符合语境，故选A。

【18题详解】

根据后一句Let'stakejamasanexample.Somestrawberry-flavoredjamwaslabeledascontaining

noartificialcolors,flavors,orsweeteners,butitcontainedabsolutelynostrawberriesatall.（以口

香糖为例，一些标有不含任何人工颜料、添加剂和糖精的草莓味口香糖竟不含草莓成分）可

知，选项与后一句为总分关系。故B选项“即使标有不含人工成分、更天然的产品也不含水

果成分”符合语境。故选B。

【19题详解】

根据后一句Consumershavetherightstoknowclearlyaboutwhattheyhavebought.（消费者有

权知道所买商品里面都含有什么），可知，选项要说明具体的做法。故G项“食品委员会建

议把所使用的添加剂都标在包装上“符合语境，故选Go

【20题详解】

根据上——句Describingaproductasstrawberryflavorandcoveringthesurfaceofthepacketwith

picturesofstrawberriesismisleading.（标榜草猿口味的产品，并在产品包装上贴上草莓图案

的行为是在误导消费者。），故选项对上一句进行进一步的解释。故D项“实际上，这个产品

仅含有少量的草莓成分，甚至一点草莓成分也没有''符合语境，故选D。
