细节理解题。根据第一段可知，K2-18b是围绕着红矮星运动的行星。13.A 词义猜测题。根据上下文可知，如果没有一个真实的表面，在K2-18b上着陆几乎是不可能的，因为K2-18b上的气体非常厚，压强非常大，任何地球制造的宇宙飞船发射到那里都会被毁灭。因此，画线词是“毁灭”的意思，destroy意为“毁掉”，故选A项。14.C 细节理解题。由题干定位至最后一段的第二句，其中的

空后提到“因为它将帮助我们获得自信”，为了承接下文，G项“克服这种说一门新外语的恐惧极其重要”符合语境。该项中的extremelyimportant与空后的gainconfidenceinourselves形成因果关系。故选G项。17.F 上文提到“如果你犯了错误，不要难过或感到失望；这是提高口语能力的一部分”，F项“一旦你犯了错误，改正它，然后继续前进承接上文，符合语境。该项中的correctitandcarryon与上文中的Don'tbesadorfeeldisappointed相呼应。故选F项。18.A 此处应该填小标题，跟其他小标题句型结构一致，为祈使句，即在A项和B项之间选择。根据该小标题下面一段的第一句可知该段讲的是“要寻求帮助”。故选A项。19.E 上文提到“非母语人士的问题之一就是太害羞而不敢开口”，E项“这对很多人来说这可能是最大的问题”承接上文，符合语境。该项中的This指代上文中的beingtooshytospeak。选项中的altofpeople与下文的mostpeople相对应。20.C 上文提到“你学一门外语肯定是有原因的，所以别多想只管好好学吧！尽情享受、尽管去犯错，甚至去创造新词！”C项“这些都是学外语的必经过程”承接上文，符合语境。故选C项。第二部分语言运用第一节【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者由一名家庭主妇转变为考古学家的故事，由此可见，只要坚持梦想并付诸行动，一切皆有可能。21.B 当时作者是一名家庭主妇，需要养育3个小孩，所以那时她的生活是以照顾小孩和节省开支为中心的。centrearound意为“以……为中心”，故选B项。22.A 由findingwaystostretchadimeintoadollar和but可知，虽然作者将10分钱当成1美元用，但生活总是很拮据。tight意为“（时间）紧的：（钱）拮据的”，故选A项。23.D 由设空前表达的意思“我真的爱和我的孩子们在一起，愿意为孩子作出任何……”可知，作者很爱孩子，应该是愿意作出辆牲。sacrifice意为“辆牲“，符合语境，appointment意为“约定”；arrangement意为“安排”;impawn意为“印象”，故选D项。24.D 句意为；所以最终我决定放弃梦想，由下一段中的dm可知此处选D项。25.B 根据上文可知，此处指作者谈到她未完成的梦想，故选B项。26.C 句意为：哥哥用非常期盼的眼神看着我，说：“为什么不（实现梦想）呢？”由最后一段最后一句可知选C项。27.A 由下文可知，作者最终实现了梦想，故此处是说接下来的几个星期，作者脑中不断重现他们的谈话。replay意为“重播；重现”explain意为“解释”；regret意为“后悔”；copy意为”复制”，故选A项。28.D 由however可知，此处表示转折，故此处是说，但很奇怪的是，这些理由似乎更像借口，excuse意为“借口”，故选D项29.B 句意为：最终，我意识到，如果我连实现目标最起码的努力都没有，我的余生将会后悔我所作的决定。reachone'sgoal为固定搭配，意为“实现某人的目标”。故选B项。由最后一段中的reachedtowardsmygoals也可知答案。30.C 句意见上一题解析，derision意为“决定”，符合语境。conclusion意为“结论”；contribution意为“贡献”；solution意为“解决办法”故选C项。31.C 句意为：我获得了一份周末的兼职，这样在我工作的时候，丈夫就可以看孩子。由首段第一句可知答案，watchthekids意为”照看孩子”，故选C项32.D 句意为：我甚至上一些深夜课，这样孩子就不需要日托，也不至于回到空无一人的家。根据语境可知选D项。33.B Sevenyearslater及由becameanarchaeologist可知，作者获得了研究生学位，成了考古学家。earn意为“挣得；获得”，故选B项。34.C 句意为：此外，我发现当我通过克服挑战和困难实现了目标的时候，我也变得更开心、更自信了。该空前后为递进关系，moreover意为“而且；此外”，故选C项。35.B 后面有and连接，故设空处应是与difficulties感情色彩相同的词。challenge意为“挑战”，故选B项。第二节【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了冰淇淋品尝师约翰·哈里森及他的工作。36.where 句意为：是的，真的有一份可以让你通过品尝冰淇淋就能得到报酬的工作。此句中job是先行词，定语从句中主谓宾成分完整，关系词在定语从句中作地点状语，表抽象地点，故答案为where。37.the 句意为：问问
