D。

（3）细节理解题。根据最后一段Inthehopethatpeoplewillrecognizethebenefitsofsilenceforcreativityand

peaceofmind,Sarahencouragesindividualstoabsorbsilenceintotheirlives.（为了让人们认识至!］沉默对仓1J造

力和心灵平静的好处，萨拉鼓励人们在生活中融入沉默）可知，莎拉在文章中强调沉默的好处是对创新和

他人带来巨大的好处，并强调了沉默倾听艺术的好处。”失落的沉默艺术”是对喧嚣世界中拥抱安静的力量

和美丽的一次迷人的探索）可知，莎拉•安德森这本书的目的是倡导沉默的普遍吸引力和益处。因此

C.Toadvocatefortheuniversalappealandbenefitsofsilence.（倡导沉默的普遍吸引力和益处。）符合题

意。故选C。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了作家兼画家莎拉•安德森的新书《失落的沉默艺术：重新连接到安静的

力量和美丽》说明了在我们的生活中拥抱安静的重要性，介绍了灵感来源以及书中的主要思想。

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。

阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的

时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观

点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。

二、看题干，带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情

基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干

以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅

读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。

三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。

在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的

暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。

猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识

较多的课外词汇。我们要学会“顺藤摸瓜”，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等

线索确定词义。

8〜11.【答案】A、D、C、D

【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第二段InTanzania,Hadzagathererscanuseaspecialwhistletoattractthis

whentheyheardrecordingsmadebytheirusualhumanpartners,comparedtothesoundsmadebyhoneyhunters

fromadifferentcountry.（研究发现，与来自不同国家的蜂蜜猎人的声音相比，当鸟类听到它们通常的人类

伴侣的声音时，它们更有可能出现并引导人们找到蜂蜜。）可知当小鸟听到熟悉的人类的录音时最有可能

出现。故选D项。

（3）推理判断题。根据第四段Humanhoneygathererslearnhowtocommunicatewiththesebirdsfromtheir

elders,accordingtotheresearchers,andthosegathererssaytheysticktotheircommunitiestraditionalcalls

becauseit'sthewaytogetthemosthoney.（根据研究人员的说法，人类采蜜者从他们的长辈那里学习如何与

这些鸟交流，这些采蜜者说他们坚持他们社区的传统召唤，因为这是获得最多蜂蜜的方式。）可知采蜂人

从自己的祖先处习得了如何与这种鸟交流。故选C项。

（4）主旨归纳题。根据最后一段Whenthehoneycombisout,thebirdsgetsomeofthewastebeeswax,

whichtheylovetoeat.Andthehumangatherersgetthehoney,whichisanenormouslyimportantfoodforthe

Hadza.WoodhascalculatedthattheHadzagetabout10%ofthecaloriesintheirannualdietwiththehelpof

honeyguides.（当蜂巢出来后，鸟儿们会得到一些它们爱吃的废蜂蜡。人类采集者得到蜂蜜，这是哈扎人非

常重要的食物。伍德计算过，哈扎人在蜂蜜向导的帮助下获得了他们一年饮食中大约10%的热量。）可知

本文主要讲了采蜂人与“向导鸟”之间的合作关系。故选D项。

本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了非洲的一种野生鸟类一一大蜜鸟，能学会附近人类采蜜者特有的口哨和呼

唤声，并引导他们找到满布蜂巢的树木。
