D.About30,000kms.【答案】28.A29.D30.C31.B【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明白交通随着技术的发展而进步，且列举了水路、火车、航空以及高铁这几种交通方式随着时间推移而进步。【28题详解】主旨大意题。依据第一段“Transportationshapestheworld:alongwithcommunications,itformsaglobalnetthatconnectspersontoperson,citytocity,andcountrytocountry.Transportationroutesaswellasvehiclesarevitaltothefunctioningandspreadofeverycivilization.”可知交通塑造了世界:与通讯一起，它形成了一个连接人与人、城市与城市、国家与国家的全球网络。交通路途和交通工具对每一种文明的运作和传播都至关重要。结合文章主要说明白交通随着技术的发展而进步，列举了水路、火车、航空以及高铁这几种交通方式随着时间推移而进步。由此可知，这篇文章的主要内容是随着时间的推移，交通技术的进步。故选A。【29题详解】推理推断题。依据第四段中“Waterhasalwaysbeenafastandefficientmodeoftravel,andeventodayitremainsaprimarymoverofheavygoods.Theimportanceofwaterwaystohumancivilizationcanbeseenonanymap:almostalloftheworld’smajorcitiesarelocatedoncoastlinesorrivers.”可知水始终是一种快捷高效的运输方式，即使在今日，它仍旧是重型货物的主要运输方式。水路对人类文明的重要性可以在任何地图上看到：几乎全部的世界主要城市都位于海岸线或河流上。由此可推知，作者提到世界主要城市的位置，是为了强调水运对人类发展的贡献。故选D。【30题详解】细微环节理解题。依据倒数其次段“AlthoughtheMontgolfierbrotherstookflightinballoonsinthe18thcentury,airtravelwasnotpracticaluntiltheinventionofpoweredflightbytheWrightbrothersin1903.Withintenyears,thecommercialairtransportationbusinesshadbegun.”可知尽管18世纪的时候，蒙哥菲耶兄弟就用气球飞行了，但是直到1903年莱特兄弟独创了动力飞机，航空旅行才变得好用起来。不到十年，商业航空运输业务起先了。由此可知，飞机的独创促进了航空旅行的普及。故选C。【31题详解】细微环节理解题。依据最终一段中“Today,two-thirdsoftheworld’shigh-speedrailtrackisinChina,whichmeasuresnearly30,000kms,andthisisexpectedtoreach38,000kmsby2025.”可知如今，世界上三分之二的高速铁路在中国，总长近3万公里，预料到2025年，这一数字将达到3.8万公里。由此可知，当今世界高速铁路的总长度约（3除以2/3）4.5万公里。故选B。DTheygiveuspaperandfuel,aswellasvitalecologicalset-vices—likecleaningtheair,storingcarbonandprovidinghome.We’retalkingabouttrees,ofcourse.Buthumanchangestotheenvironmentappeartobecausinggreatchangestotreesaroundtheworld.Inanewstudy,scientistsreviewedglobalresearchontrendsintreeseedlings(幼苗)，growth,anddeath.Theycombinedthosedatawithananalysisdeforestation(森林采伐).Andtheyfoundworldwide,oldertreesaredyingatahigherratethaninthepast,duetoreasonslikerisingairtemperature,wildfires,drought(干旱)andpathogens(病菌).“Andmostofthedriversofthatdecreaseinlarge,oldtreesareincreasingthemselves,suchastemperaturegoingup,droughtsaremoresevere,wildfires,windstorms,anddeforestationareall—althoughvariableacrosstheglobe—they’regenerallyincreasing.Andsoboththelosshasalreadyoccurred,butweexpectmorecontinuedlossofbig,oldtrees,”saidNateMcDowell,anearthscientistatPacificNorthwestNationalLab,whowasoneofthestudy’sauthors.“Soifwehaveanincreasingrateofdeath,particularlyofthelarger,oldertrees,what’sleftaretheyoungertrees.Sothat’swhyonaverage,throughthelossofbigger,oldertrees,ourforestsarebecomingyoungerandshorter.Thistrendisaproblem,becauseoldtreesarevitallyimportant.”“Theincreaseindeathdoeslimitthecarbonstorageofanecosystem,andcanforcethesystemtobecomeacarbonsourcetotheatmosphere.Thesecondreasonisfromabiodiversityviewpoint—oldtreestendtohouseahigherbiodiversity.Andthethirdreasonislinkedwithbeauty:asasocietywecareaboutthesetrees.Wehavenationalparksnamedafterthesebigtrees.”NateMcDowelladded.32.What’sthepurposeoftheauthorinwritingthepassage?A.Towarnustocareaboutoldtrees.B.Tocallonustoplantmoretrees.C.Totelluswhyoldtreesaredyingout.DToproveforestsarebecomingsmaller.33.WhichofthefollowingdoesNateMcDowellthinkisaproblem?A.There’llbealargernumberofoldertrees.B.Oldertreeswilldisappearintheworld.C.Youngtreeswillbecutdownbypeople.D.Treeswillbecomeyoungerandshorter.34.Whyareoldtreesimportant?A.Theyarebeautiful.B.Theycanshelteravarietyofwildlife.C.Nationalparkshaveaccesstothem.D.Theylimitthecarbonstorageofanecosystem.35.Whatmaybethebesttitleforthetext?A.TemperatureDestroysForests.B.ForestsGetsYoungerandShorterC.TheReasonsoftheLossofOldTreesD.TheDriveroftheDecreaseofOldTrees【答案】32.A33.D34.B35.B【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲解并描述了由于种种缘由，森林里较大、较老的树木不断死亡，剩下多为幼树，森林正在变得更年轻、更矮，告诫我们要爱护古树。【32题详解】推理推断题。依据第一段中“Theygiveuspaperandfuel,aswellasvitalecologicalset-vices—likecleaningtheair,storingcarbonandprovidinghome.We’retalkingabouttrees,ofcourse.”第三段中“Andmostofthedriversofthatdecreaseinlarge,oldtreesareincreasingthemselves,suchastemperaturegoingup,droughtsaremoresevere,wildfires,windstorms,anddeforestationareall—althoughvariableacrosstheglobe—they’regenerallyincreasing.”以及第四段中“Thistrendisaproblem,becauseoldtreesarevitallyimportant.”作者讲解并描述森林树木的对人类的作用，但由于自身和外界的缘由古树越来越少，但它们很重要，可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是告诫我们要爱惜古树。故选A项。【33题详解】细微环节理解题。依据第四段中“Sothat’swhyonaverage,throughthelossofbigger,oldertrees,ourforestsarebecomingyoungerandshorter.Thistrendisaproblem,becauseoldtreesarevitallyimportant.”可知，这就是为什么平均来说，随着更大、更老的树木的削减，我们的森林正在变得更年轻、更矮。这一趋势是个问题，因为古树特别重要。NateMcDowell认为树变得更年轻、更矮是一个问题。故选D项。【34题详解】细微环节理解题。依据最终一段中“Thesecondreasonisfromabiodiversityviewpoint—oldtreestendtohouseahigherbiodiversity.”可知，古树可以庇护各种野生动物，所以它们重要。故选B项。【35题详解】主旨大意题。依据第五段中““Soifwehaveanincreasingrateofdeath,particularlyofthelarger,oldertrees,what’sleftaretheyoungertrees.Sothat’swhyonaverage,throughthelossofbigger,oldertrees,ourforestsarebecomingyoungerandshorter.Thistrendisaproblem,becauseoldtreesarevitallyimportant.””可知，本文主要是讲解并描述了由于种种缘由，森林里较大、较老的树木不断死亡，剩下多为幼树，因此森林正在变得更年轻、更矮，因此本文的最佳标题是选项B“森林变得更年轻更矮”。故选B项。其次节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。并在答题卷上将该项涂黑。Reducingclasssizehastraditionallybeenseenasanimportantwaytoimproveastudent’seducationalexperience.Manyoftenbelievethatsmallerclasseswouldpermitteacherstogivemorepersonalattentiontotheirstudents.___36___.Butonerecentstudysuggeststhere'snotmuchresearch-basedevidencetosupportthisidea.TheresearchwascollectedbyateamfromDenmark'sDanishCenterforSocialScienceResearch.Thestudynotesthatoneofthemainproblemswithreducingclasssizeisthatitcanhaveveryhighcosts.___37___.Financiallimitationsmakeitverydifficultformanyschoolstoreducethenumberofstudentsintheclassroom.Thenewstudybeganbyexamining127studiesonclassroomsize.Itsgoalwastoexaminethemajorresearchstudiesalreadycompletedonthesubject.___38___.Intheend,theresearchcenteredon10mainstudieswithpossiblesampling(采样)problems.Theresearchersconcludedthatthere'ssomeevidencetosuggestthatreducingclasssizemayleadtosomeimprovementinastudent'sreadingachievement.___39___.Theyfoundjusta53-percentchancethatarandomlyselectedtestscorefromastudentfromasmallclasswouldbehigherthantheselectedscoreofastudentfromalargerclass.___40___.Thisledtheresearcherstoconcludethattherewouldbenobenefitatalltomathstudentsinasmallerclasssize.A.ButtheysaidtheeffectisverysmallB.Formathematicsachievement,theresultwas49percentC.ThiscantheoreticallyleadtoimprovedacademicresultsforstudentsD.ManypublicopinionstudieshaveshownteachersfavorsmallerclasssizesE.TheeffectsoflargerclasssizecanstaylongafterthestudentscompletetheireducationF.IncreasingclasssizeisoneofthemostcommonwaysschoolsystemscontroleducationspendingG.Theyespeciallycenteredonthosetryingtomeasureifsmallerclasssizeledtogreateracademicsuccess【答案】36.C37.F38.G39.A40.B【解析】这是一篇说明文。削减班容量传统上被认为可以提高学生的成果。但新的探讨发觉，班容量小可能会提高部分学生的阅读成果，但对于学生的数学成果来说，没有明显的作用。【36题详解】上一句提到：减小班容量可以使老师们给学生更多的关注。该句承接上文，应当接着介绍这么做的好处，故C选项切题：这从理论上可以提高学生的学习成果。C选项中的This指代上一句的内容。【37题详解】依据上一句中的“itcanhaveveryhighcosts”和下一句中的“Financiallimitationsmakeitverydifficult”可知，该段介绍的是班容量和成本方面的关系，选项中只有F选项和此有关，故F选项切题：提高班容量是学校限制教化费用的常见的方式之一。【38题详解】该空前面介绍的新探讨的对象和目的。那么，该空仍旧要介绍新探讨的相关内容，故G选项切题。该空主要介绍新探讨的重点：他们特殊关注那些试图衡量班级规模是否会带来更高校术成就的探讨。下一句中的“10mainstudies”亦是对该空的补充说明。【39题详解】该空前面提到：有一些证据表明减小班容量可能会导致学生阅读成果的提高。后一句提到：他们发觉，来自小容量班学生的随机选择的测试分数只有53%的几率会高于来自大容量班级学生的所选分数。该空承上启下，应当表明小班教学事实上效果不是很好，故A选项切题。【40题详解】上一句提到：来自小容量班学生的随机选择的测试分数只有53%的几率会高于来自大容量班级学生的所选分数。下一句提到：这导致探讨者们得出结论：班级容量小对于学生的数学成果没有好处。该空承接上文，还应当介绍班容量和数学成果有关的内容，故B选项切题：对于数学成果来说，这个几率只有49%。第三部分语言运用（共两节30分）第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Mylocalsupermarketisalwaysbusy.ThefirstparkingspaceIfoundwasconvenient,butI’dnoticedawomaninabluecar____41____forawhile.AsIwas____42____,Iletherhaveit.Onthe____43____ofthecarparkIbackedintothenextavailablespot—itwasatightfit.Prettysoon,I’dmademywaythroughthesupermarketandwasbackinthefreshair.Feelinggood,I____44____mypursechangeintothehandsofahomelessma
