【答案】(1)D

(2)D

(3)C

(4)B

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了长颈鹿濒临灭绝的原因，并指出提供准确的

数据，提高人们的保护意识至关重要。

(1)考查词义猜测。根据第一段中的"Surprisingly,evenscientistshaven'tgivenmuch

attentiontogiraffes.Wearelearningmoreabouttheirecology,butwhatweknowisstillway

behindwhatweknowaboutotherspecies."可知人们对其关注很少，了解很少，这时期灭绝

的原因，所以silentextinction意为在人们不知不觉中灭绝。故选D。

(2)考查细节理解。根据第二段中的"InTanzania,Hennessysays,thelatestwordonthe

streetisthateatinggiraffemeatcouldcureAIDS.Freshgiraffeheadsandbonescanbesoldat

pricesofupto$140perpiece.”可知人们认为长颈鹿肉能治愈艾滋病，因此其肉价很贵，故

选D。

(3)考查推理判断。根据第三段中的"Thereisalackofrightandtruedata.”可知造成人们误

解的原因是，缺乏正确真实的数据，再根据第四段中的"Hennessyandotherresearchersare

nowpullingtogetherthedataneededtoimprovethesituationoftheentiregiraffespeciesandall

ninesubspecies(亚种).〃可知要想根正人们的认知，需要提供准确可靠的数据，故选C。

(4)考查写作意图。根据最后一段中的"Hehopesthattheworldwillfinallystarttotake

noticeofhowendangeredthesebelovedanimalshavebecome."可知Hennessy的努力的目的是

提高公众保护长颈鹿的意识。故选B。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和写作意图四个题型的考查，是一

篇环保类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行

分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

【答案】(1)A

(4)A

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了比起文凭和学历，谷歌更看重什么。

(1)考查细节理解。根据第二段中的"Experiencehastaughthimthereareexceptionalkidsat

manyotherplaces,fromstateschoolsinCaliforniatoNewYork."可知Bock的意思是经验告诉

他，在一些别的地方，比如加利福尼亚或纽约的公立学校中，也会有一些天赋超常的人

才，故选A。

(2)考查推理判断。根据"Brain-teasers:Goneareinterviewquestionssuchas:Whyare

manholecovers(井盖)round?orHowmanygolfballscanfitinaschoolbus?zOurresearchtells

usthosequestionsareawasteoftime/Bocksaid^hey'reareallycoachableskill.Themoreyou

或者是：多少个高尔夫球能装满一辆校车？博克说：“我们的调查显示，这么问纯粹是浪费

时间。因为这些是能够通过训练提高的技能，你练习得越多，就能答得更好。”由此推断出

“覆盖德克萨斯州需要多少卫生纸”这是一个脑筋急转弯，故选Do

(3)考杳细节理解。根据"Leaders:Theideaisnotwhetheryouwerepresidentofthestudent

bodyorvicepresidentofthebank,butrather/Whenyouseeaproblemdoyoustepin,helpsolve

it/andthencritically,'Areyouwillngtostepoutandletsomebodyelsetakeover,andmake

roomforsomebodyelse?Areyouwillingtogiveuppower?’"这不是说你得是学生会主席或是银

行副总理，而是"当你遇到问题时能不能介入，帮助解决问题〃。然后是眼光要犀利，"可以

退出来让别人接管吗？能够让位于别人吗？可以放弃权力吗？”，由此可知依据谷歌的说

法，一个愿意退让的人是一个合格的领导者，故选C。

(4)考查推理判断。根据Googleyness:That'swhatGooglecallsitsculturalfit.It'snot'Areyou

likeus?zBocksaid/Weactuallylookforpeoplewhoaredifferent,becausediversitygivesus

greatideas/"这点被谷歌称作文化契合度。它并不是"你和我们一样吗？"博克说："事实

上，我们在寻找和我们不一样的人，因为多样性能给谷歌带来卓越的想法。由此推知独一

无二的人是具有谷歌精神的人，故选A。

(3)B

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者从自己的视角看父子俩的关系。

(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"Notmanypeopleconsiderthemfun,butonthis

SaturdayIheardlaughter.Atthefrontofthefirstcar-lookingoutthewindowatthetrackthat

layahead-wereamanandhisson.”和最后一段中的"Thefatherandson,though,werejust

ridingthisshuttletogether,makingitexciting,sharingeachother'scompany.”可知父子俩乘车是

相互陪伴的一次愉快的经历。故选C。

distinctions(种族歧视)thesedays,soIhopenoonewillmindifImentionthatmostpeopleon

(3)考查主旨大意。全文虽是作者的视角在看父子俩的关系，但全文的主人公却是父子

俩，因此文章以父子为标题更合适。故选B。

【答案】(1)C

(2)D

(3)A

(4)D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了美国报纸的由来，以及现在面临的挑战和做

出的调整。

⑴考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"theprinterJamesFranklin,Benjamin'solderbrother,

startedtheNewEnglandCourant,andthatwaswhatwemightrecognizetodayasareal

newspaper."可知，JamesFranklin创办的NewEnglandCourant就是我们今天所知的真正的报

纸，也就标志着美国报业的开始，故选C。

⑵考查推理判断。根据第二段中的"Newspapercompaniesarelosingadvertisers,readers,

marketvalue〃可知，报社正在逐渐失去广告商，读者和市场价值，以及后面编辑的话“At

placeswheretheygather,editorsaskoneanother,'Howareyou?',asiftheyhavejustcomeout

ofthehospitaloralostlawcase.",编辑们现在见面聊天的时候都会互相问候“你还好吗〃仿佛

刚出院或输了一场官司，其实隐含的意思就是因为报纸业的不景气，编辑们现在正面临着

困难，所以这个问候应该是你们报社生意怎么样？故选D。

⑶考查细节理解。根据最后一段可知，找到一种新的发展方式的是TheWashingtonPost

《华盛顿邮报》。故选A。

⑷考查推理判断。通读全文，作者列举了报业所面临的种种问题，可以判断作者对此很担

忧。故选D。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇生活类阅读，考生需

要准确掌握细节信息，并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
