B．Specialist.C．Beginner. D．Judge.C[词义揣测题。依据最终一段“don'tevenknowthepropermovement”可知，novice指不知道运动的正确姿态和动作，对该运动不是很熟识的人，由此可以知道该词是初学者、新手的意思。故答案选C。]8．Whatisthemainideaofthetext?A．Athletesarelikelytowingamesthroughimaginedpractice.B．Practicingaskillproperlyinmindcanproduceintendedeffect.C．Practicewhethermentalorphysicalhasitsowncharacteristics.D．Scientistshavefoundasafewayforathletestopracticetheirskills.B[主旨大意题。本文用一个闻名运动员的例子来引出话题，运动员用运动的精神训练法在某种程度上也能跟身体训练一样，达到促进运动技能的效果。故答案选B。]CReadingcanbeasocialactivity.Thinkofthepeoplewhobelongtobookgroups.Theychoosebookstoreadandthenmeettodiscussthem.NowthewebsiteBookCrossingturnsthepageonthetraditionalideaofabookgroup.Membersgoonthesiteandregisterthebookstheyownandwouldliketoshare.BookCrossingprovidesanidentificationnumbertostickinsidethebook.Thenthepersonleavesitinapublicplace,hopingthatthebookwillhaveanadventure,travelingfarandwidewitheachnewreaderwhofindsit．BrucePederson,themanagingdirectorofBookCrossing，says，“Thetwothingsthatchangeyourlifearethepeopleyoumeetandbooksyouread.BookCrossingcombinesboth.”Membersleavebooksonparkbenchesandbuses,intrainstationsandcoffeeshops.Whoeverfindstheirbookwillgotothesiteandrecordwheretheyfoundit.Peoplewhofindabookcanalsoleaveajournalentrydescribingwhattheythoughtofit.E­mailsarethensenttotheBookCrosserstokeepthemupdatedaboutwheretheirbookshavebeenfound.BrucePedersonsaystheideaisforpeoplenottobeselfishbykeepingabooktogatherdustonashelfathome.BookCrossingispartofatrendamongpeoplewhowanttogetbacktothe“real”andnotthevirtual(虚拟)．Thesitenowhasmorethanonemillionmembersinmorethanonehundredthirty­fivecountries.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个图书漂流的网站，该网站激励人们拿出自己的图书与他人共享，如今超过135个国家的一百多万人成为该网站的会员。9．Whydoestheauthormentionbookgroupsinthefirstparagraph?A．Toexplainwhattheyare.B．TointroduceBookCrossing.C．Tostresstheimportanceofreading.D．Toencouragereaderstosharetheirideas.B[推理推断题。由题干定位到第一段，该段首先说阅读是一种社会性的活动，然后谈到读书小组(bookgroups)，接下来说到BookCrossing这个网站，说该网站给传统的读书小组翻开了新的一页(turnsthepageon)，然后逐段介绍这个网站的做法，由此推断，介绍读书小组的目的是引出这个网站，因此选B项。A项“说明它们的含义”，C项“强调阅读的重要性”，D项“激励读者共享他们的观点”，均不是作者提到读书小组的目的，可解除。]10．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“it”inParagraph2referto?A．Thebook.B．Anadventure.C．Apublicplace.D．Theidentificationnumber.A[代词指代题。画线词在其次段，该段具体介绍这个网站的具体做法：会员去网站登记自己情愿共享的书，网站给这本书一个身份编号并贴在书中，主子把书留在公共场所，希望这本书会跟“找到它的每个新读者”一起旅行。由此可知代词it指前文提到的thebook。B项“一次冒险”，C项“一处公共场所”，D项“身份编号”，均不是it所指的内容。]11．WhatwillaBookCrosserdowithabookafterreadingit?A．Meetotherreaderstodiscussit.B．Keepitsafeinhisbookcase.C．Passitontoanotherreader.D．Mailitbacktoitsowner.C[推理推断题。从题干中的afterreadingit推断答案在第四段。该段说，人们在看完一本书之后就把书留在公园的长凳、公共汽车、火车站及咖啡馆等地方，下一位找到这本书的人就到网站上记录他们找到这本书的地点，由此可推断选C项“把书接着传递给另一位读者”。A项“与其他读者会面，探讨这本书”，B项“把书妥当保存在书架上”，D项“把书邮寄给他的主子”，均不是会员的做法。]12．Whatisthebesttitleforthetext?A．OnlineReading：AVirtualTourB．ElectronicBooks：ANewTrendC．ABookGroupBringsTraditionBackD．AWebsiteLinksPeoplethroughBooksD[标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了BookCrossing这个网站，因此这篇文章的标题应体现出“网站”这一关键点，再依据第三段中的thepeopleyoumeetandbooksyouread可知只有D项涵盖了这些信息。]DAnewcollectionofphotosbringsanunsuccessfulAntarcticvoyagebacktolife.FrankHurley'spictureswouldbeoutstanding—undoubtedlyfirst­ratephoto­journalism—iftheyhadbeenmadelastweek.Infact，theywereshotfrom1914through1916,mostofthemafteradisastrousshipwreck(海难),byacameramanwhohadnoreasonableexpectationofsurvival.Manyoftheimageswerestoredinanicechest,underfreezingwater,inthedamagedwoodenship.TheshipwastheEndurance,asmall,tight,Norwegian­builtthree­masterthatwasintendedtotakeSirErnestShackletonandasmallcrewofseamenandscientists,27meninall，tothesouthernmostshoreofAntarctica'sWeddellSea.FromthatpointShackletonwantedtoforceapassagebydogsled(雪橇)acrossthecontinent.ThejourneywasintendedtoachievemorethanwhatCaptainRobertFalconScotthaddone.CaptainScotthadreachedtheSouthPoleearlyin1912buthaddiedwithhisfourcompanionsonthemarchback.AswriterCarolineAlexandermakesclearinherforcefulandwell­researchedstoryTheEndurance,adventuringwaseventhenathoroughlycommercialeffort.Scott'slastjourney，completedashelayinatentdyingofcoldandhunger,caughttheworld'simagination,andafilmmadeinhishonordrewcrowds.Shackleton,aonetimeBritishmerchant­navyofficerwhohadgottowithin100milesoftheSouthPolein1908,startedabusinessbeforehis1914voyagetomakemoneyfrommovieandstillphotography.FrankHurley,aconfidentandgiftedAustralianphotographerwhoknewtheAntarctic，washiredtomaketheimages,mostofwhichhaveneverbeforebeenpublished.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。1914年到1916年间，一群海员和科学家踏上了南极探险之路。结果他们在回来的路上发生海难，其中一个摄影师在临死之前拍摄了大量的照片，并把照片封存在破损的木船的冰块箱里。通过这些照片我们可以了解到那次不太胜利的探险经验。13．WhatdoweknowaboutthephotostakenbyHurley?A．Theyweremadelastweek.B．Theyshowedunderseasceneries.C．Theywerefoundbyacameraman.D．Theyrecordedadisastrousadventure.D[细微环节理解题。由题干中的thephotostakenbyHurley定位到文章其次段开头。该段说这些照片即使是上个星期拍的也堪称佳作，故A项错误；该段中还说照片是在一次海难之后拍的，故D项正确；文章没有说拍摄的是海底景观，故B项错误；拍摄者是摄影师，但没有说是一名摄影师发觉了这些照片，故C项错误。]14．WhoreachedtheSouthPolefirstaccordingtothetext?A．FrankHurley.B．ErnestShackleton.C．RobertFalconScott.D．CarolineAlexander.C[推理推断题。由题干中的“第一个到达南极”这条信息定位到第三段。被发觉的照片所展示的这次旅行是为了获得比RobertFalconScott船长从前的探险更大的收获，该船长在1912年就到达了南极。由此推断RobertFalconScott是最先到达南极的人，故选C项。]15．WhatdoesAlexanderthinkwasthepurposeofthe1914voyage?A．Artisticcreation.B．Scientificresearch.C．Moneymaking.D．Treasurehunting.C[细微环节理解题。题干的Alexander在最终一段出现，the1914voyage指本文谈到的Endurance这艘船的探险，该段开头说，这个作家在她的小说TheEndurance中说，在那时，探险就已经是纯商业活动(athoroughlycommercialeffort)了，因此1914年航行的目的是赚钱(moneymaking)，故选C项。A项“艺术创作”，B项“科学调研”，D项“寻宝”，均未体现。]Ⅱ.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)Lastsummerover12，000fanswereatWembleyArenainLondon，shoutingandcheering.Thousandsmorewerewatchingonline.16Itwasesports，orcompetitivecomputergaming.MillionsofpeopleintheUKplaycomputergamesforfun.Someofthemhavebecomeprofessionalgamers，playinggamesastheirfull­timejob.17Theypractisefortenormorehoursaday，fiveorsixdaysaweek.Theydoexercisesliketypingsomethingandtryingtotypeitfasterandfaster.Theyalsostudyvideosofotherplayersandplanwaystobeatthem.18Areplayersathletes?Somesayno.Esportsplayersdon'tneedtorun，jump，throwordobigphysicalactions.Atthemoment，theUKgovernmentclassifiesesportsaskindsofgames，notassports.Butotherssayyes：esportsaresports.Playersdoneedsomephysicalskills，especiallyhand­eyecoordination，reflexes，accuracyandtiming.Ifdarts，snookerandshootingareclassifiedassports，thenperhapsesportsshouldbetoo.19AndtheywillbeanofficialmedalsportintheAsianGamesstartingfrom2024.Nextstep：theOlympics?Formanyesportsfansandplayers，though，themostimportantthingisthatesportsaregrowinginpopularityandimportance.20A．Butareesportsreallysports?B．Alllikeplayingcomputergames.C．It'snoteasybeingaprofessionalgamer，though.D．Butthiswasn'tafootball，basketballortennismatch.E．Itiscertainthatesportswillcomeintothe2024Olympics.F．Infact，ChinaandSouthKoreadoclassifyesportsassports.G．Ifesportsarenotasimportantassportsnow，theydefinitelywillbeinthenearfuture.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了电子体育的现状、发展前景和人们对它的看法。16．D[空后一句说明这个运动是竞技电脑竞赛，故选项D“但这不是足球、篮球或网球竞赛”符合语境。]17．C[选项C中的关键词“professional”与空前一句中的关键词“professional”呼应。]18．A[依据空后的“Areplayersathletes？”可知，该段是对电子运动提出质疑，故选项A符合语境。]19．F[该段说明有些人认为电子体育也是体育。空后一句说明“esports”运动是2024年亚运会角逐金牌的项目，故选项F“中韩两国将电子体育划分为运动”符合语境。]20．G[该空前一句说明电子体育的流行和普及，故选项G“假如现在电子体育不如体育重要，在不久的将来它们肯定会和体育一样重要”符合语境。]Ⅲ.完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)Sleepwalkingismostcommonduringthepreteenyearsandmayaffect15percentofchildren.Herearesomewaysto21thisnighttimebehavior.Soundanalarm.22isanobviousconcerninthissituation，soifyoudon'thaveanalarmsysteminyourhousetohelp23yourchildinside，youmaywanttouseanindividualdooralarm.Placeagateinthedoorwaytoyourchild's24．Thiswillkeepthesleepwalkerintheroom，orhemaymakeenough25tryingtomovethegatethatyou'llcatchyourchildintheact.Makesureyouhavesafetylocksonalldoorsandwindows26outside，soyourchildcan'tleavethehousewhilesleepwalking.27yourchildbacktobed.28encouragehimtogotosleep.29sleepwalkersareinthedeepeststageofsleep，theywillbeconfusedifwoken.Inaddition，30thesleepwalkersmaydisrupttheirsleep，whichinturnmaycausetheirdaytime31．Reducestress.Mostoften，sleepwalkingistheresultofemotional32．Whenasecondchildisborn，theolderchildmaybeafraidoflosinghisparents'love.Talkwithyourchildabout33inhislife.Ifyoufindyourchild'ssleepwalkingmightbe34bysomestressinhislife，tryto35【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了应对儿童梦游的三种方法。21．A.getthrough
