【能力提升】I.阅读理解

1.A细节理解题。根据第一段中uThelake^fishhaveprovidedhimwitha

way...raisesfarmanimals/,由于他捕不到足够的鱼来养活家人，他现在饲养农场

动物。可知，在过去，Traore靠捕鱼养家。故选A。

2.D推理判断题。根据第二段中“'Ifthingsgoonlikethis,Idon'tthinkour

childrencanbecomefishermenlikeus.Theywillhavetochooseotherjobs,'the

56-year-oldTraoresaid.可知，下一代人将会选择其他的职业。故选D。

3.D推理判断题。根据第四段“UNofficialsnotethatthefloodinganda

severelackofrainfall...leadtoconflict.v可知，可知温度上升会导致水资源的问题。

故选D。

4.C词义猜测题。根据上文“PeopleintheruralareasWegniaand

Kononi-Sirakorohaveplanted56,000treesinthepasttwoyears.v以及下文“More

andmorepeopleareturningtootheragriculture.n可知，这里指的是这些村民通过

建造石头屏障来使土壤保持雨水，从而更好地控制水分。所以they指的是“村

民”。故选C。

5.C词义猜测题。根据Although和画线词后的“someofthoseexplorers

discoveredanaturaltreasure以及历史知识可知，尽管淘金热最终以许多淘金者

的失败而告终，但其中一些探索者发现了一个自然宝藏。由此可知画线词词义为

“失败”。故选C。

6.A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Thefirstnon-nativetouristsarrivedinthe

mid-1850safterreportsfromgoldseekerstoldofanareaofbreathtakingbeautythat

nowordswereabletodescribe.n可知，第一批非本地游客是在听淘金者说这里有

难以用语言描绘的美景后来到约塞米蒂的，也就是他们在这个地方被淘金者发现

之后来到这里的。故选A。

7.B细节理解题。根据第四段中的“AfterlivinginYosemiteforafewyears,

hehelpeddefineitsproposedboundaries.”可知，在约塞米蒂居住多年后，JohnMuir

帮助确定了约塞米蒂的边界。故选B。

8.A推理判断题。根据第三段中的“InthemidstoftheCivilWar,President

AbrahamLincolnsignedagranttoprotectYosemitepermanently”可知，内战期间,

林肯总统就签署了一项条款，永久保护约塞米蒂。由此可知，自内战期间起，约

塞米蒂就得到了很好的保护。故选A。

II.七选五

1.C根据上文“Quitesimply,schooltripsarethejourneyswhichtakeplace

outsideastudent'snormalenvironment."（简言之，学校旅行就是发生在学生正常

环境之外的旅行。）和下文^Educationaltripsarenormallydone,•,onafieldtrip.,,

（教育之旅通常在博物馆或历史名胜进行。他们可以提供更好的理解，因为学生

将能够建立一个地点，时间，甚至历史上的人与他们在实地考察中看到的东西之

间的联系。）可知，空处承上启下，说明了学校旅行的目的。C项：Aschooltripis

donemostlyforeducationalpurposes.（学校旅行主要是为了教育目的。）符合语嬴

故选C。

2.E根据下文本段主题句"Atriptothezoocouldprovideabetter

understandingofanimals."（去动物园旅行可以让人们更好地了解动物。）和上文
