【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。作者通过书信的形式向有关部门建议要谨慎考虑把图书

馆改建为超市的计划。虽然超市能方便人们的日常生活，提供就业机会，但图书馆能丰富

没有网络的人的精神世界，帮助学生完成家庭作业，这一点是超市无法取代的。因此作者

希望有关部门能够慎重考虑。

8.A细节理解题。根据第二段中的"Butthepeoplewhowanttobuildthe

supermarketseemtothinkthatnoonewantsthelibraryanymore”可知，支持建

超市的人是因为他们觉得不再有人想要图书馆了。

9.D词义猜测题。it作代词时，代表前文已提到过的一件事物。前文中提到“the

roadsinandaroundwillbefullofcarsinthedaytimeanddeliverylorriesat

night（这个住宅区的路白天会塞满车，晚上有运输卡车）”可知，此处的it指的是交通情

况。

10.C推理判断题。根据第一段中的"Iwouldliketoexpressmyconcernaboutthis

plan.ItisnotthatIamcompletelyagainst…”可知，作者写这封信的目的是为了

表达自己对于这个计划的担心，而且作者希望有关部门能权衡利弊后再做出决定，说明作

者对这个计划的态度是消极的。

11.B目的意图题。文中第一段提到社区图书馆将被改建为超市的计划，作者在信中

表达了他的顾虑。根据"Ijustthinkthatasacommunityweneedtoweighupthe

advantages…”可知，作者希望有关部门能够权衡利弊后再做出决定，故这封信的写作目

的是呼吁关注这个项目。

【语篇解读】在斯德哥尔摩一座地标性的27层塔楼的地下室里，彼得森希望播下室内

12.A细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Pettersonishopingtosowtheseedsofan

13.D词义猜测题。根据第三段中的"Pettersoncallsthefarm's

approach'agritechture?：thecombinationofagriculture,technologyand

architecturehopingtorevolutionizehowweliveandeat.”可知，止匕处的Theterm

指的就是“agritechture”。

14.C推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Thebasementfarmwillcapturearound70

percentofthiswastedheatandpipeitintotheheatingsystemoftheofficeblock

above.”可知，地下室农场将捕获约70%的这种废热，并将其注入办公大楼上方的供暖

系统。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己有一天情绪低落，当看到两个截然

相反的个性车牌时心情转变的故事。

16.C前一句说“任何了解我的人都会认为我是一个乐观主义者”，后一句又说“在

一个寒冷的一月里我就是这样"。由此可知，此处需要一个承上启下的过渡句，C项“即

使是乐观主义者也可能暂时失去希望”符合语境。

17.A根据本空后的"Thegrayskyblockedevenasinglerayofsunlight.”

可知，灰暗的天空甚至没有一缕阳光，故A项“天气似乎很合我的心情”符合语境。

18.G根据本空前的“Ibegantothinkaboutmynegativeattitudeandreminded

myselfthatIwasresponsibleforchoosingmystateofmind.”可矢口，“我”开始

思考我的消极态度，并提醒自己，“我”有责任选择“我的”心态。G项“虽然我不能忽

视我正在经历的痛苦，但我可以选择积极地思考”可承接上文。

19.D根据本空前的“Thisbroughtanimmediatesmiletomyface.”可知，这

使“我的”脸上立刻露出了笑容。D项“这感觉就像在提醒自己：阳光毕竟是灿烂的”符

合语境。

20.F根据本空前的“Seeingthetwooppositelicenseplatesatthatexactmoment

intimestrengthenedmypreviousrecognitionofmyabilitytochoosemyattitude.”

可知，此处承接上文，讲的是积极的态度对自己的影响，F项“当我决定选择一种积极

的态度时，我感到精神振奋”符合语境。
