答案以及解析一、1.答案：(1)-(3)BDC

解析：(1).细微环节理解题。依据"...theself-proclaimed'LiveMusicCapitaloftheWorld'boastsnumerouslivemusicvenuesandoneofthelargestmusicfestivalsintheU.S."可知,它自称为"世界现场音乐之都",所以Austin吸引游客的地方应当是它的音乐节。

(3).细微环节理解题。依据"Anoldtownwithalotofhistoricarchitecturesandcobblestonestreets?"可知,PuertoRico有很多有历史意义的建筑。2.答案：1-4.DCDB

解析：1.细微环节理解题。依据第一段中的The"Sanjiuperiod",whichisinMinorCold(小寒),referstothethirdnine-dayperiod(the19thtothe27thday)afterthedayofthewintersolstice(冬至).可知,“三九”在小寒节气内。故选D项。

2.细微环节理解题。依据第三段中的InTianjin,thereisacustomtohavehuangyacai,akindofChinesecabbage,duringMinorCold可知,天津人在小寒的时候会吃黄芽菜。故选C项。

3.细微环节理解题。依据第四段中的Cantoneseaddsomefriedpreserved(腌制的)pork,sausagesandpeanutsandmixthemintotherice.可知,广东人将糯米饭和其他很多东西混在一起吃。故选D项。

4.推理推断题。依据第一段中的TherearemanydifferentcustomsrelatedtoMinorColdinChina.可知,文章可能选自报纸的文化栏目。故选B项。3.答案：(1)-(4)ADCA

解析：(1).细微环节理解题。依据文章第一段中的"Pettersonishopingtosowtheseedsofanindoorurbanfarmingrevolution."可知,他要在地下室内开办室内农场,所以选A项。

(2).词义揣测题。依据文章第三段中的"Pettersoncallsthefarm'sapproach'agritechture':thecombinationofagriculture,technologyandarchitecturehopingtorevolutionizehowweliveandeat."可知,此处的theterm指的就是"agritechture"。

(3).推理推断题。依据文章最终一段中的"Thebasementfarmwillcapturearound70percentofthiswastedheatandpipeitintotheheatingsystemoftheofficeblockabove."可知,地下室农场将捕获约70%的这种废热,并将其注人上方办公大楼的供暖系统,所以选C项。

(4).主旨大意题。依据文章的主题句"Pettersonishopingtosowtheseedsofanindoorurbanfarmingrevolution."可知,本文主要介绍的是"农业革命"。4.答案：(1)-(4)ADAC

解析：(1).推理推断题。依据第一段最终一句"ResearchersfromBrighamYoungUniversitydiscoveredthatfathersareinauniquepositiontohelptheiradolescentchildrenlearnpersistence."可知,该高校探讨的是父亲在家庭中对孩子毅力品行的养成起着重要作用。

(2).推理推断题。依据第四段可知,"权威式的"父亲并不专断,而是要让孩子感受到温温煦责任,要强调规则背后的缘由,要赐予孩子适当的自主权。故推断出,一个"权威式的"父亲会做的事情是给孩子说明规则。

(3).细微环节理解题。依据最终一段最终一句"...theresearcherssuggestthatsingleparent...,whichisanavenueoffutureresearch."可知,将来探讨的方向是单亲。

(4).主旨大意题。文章主要论述了父亲的行为会影响孩子毅力的养成。故C项"ChildrenTendtoLearnDeterminationfromFather"是文章的最佳标题。二、答案：CDEFA

解析：①该空前一句意思是:当学生接触新的环境时,教室里就会出现文化冲击。G项意思是:比较典型的是,这种状况往往发生在一名新移民学生首次进入教室时。前后逻辑顺畅,并且句意符合此处语境。故选G。②D项中的therules和该空前的Brainstorm(集体探讨)grouprules及该空后的Rulescouldinclude...相呼应。故选D。③E项中的Apartner和该空前的Findapartner及该空后的Agoodpartner...相呼应,故选E。④F项中的Classroomcultureshockisoftencaused...和该段的主题句Knowthesourceofaproblem及该空后的Itcanalsobecaused...相呼应,故选F。⑤A项中的Createspeciallessons和小标题下的Createlessons...相呼应,故选A。三、答案：(1)-(5)DBADC;(6)-(10)ABCAD;(11)-(15)BCAAB
