【答案】21.B22.D23.C

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Khalifa为了跟随JaneGoodall去建立一个更美好的世界

加入了Roots&Shoots,她参与了许多服务项目，并且她希望能激励女性、有色人种，对他

们的社区产生影响的人。是个乐于助人且很有雄心壮志的人。

【21题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段中Butherinvolvementbeganmuchearlierwhenshewasinspired

byavideoshowninaschoolclassroomofDr.JaneGojdal1doingresearchinTanzania.

“Ithinkitwasthethirdgrade,“shesays."Iwaslike,*Wow,Iwanttobelike

her.可知但她的参与在更早的时候就开始了，当时JaueGcxxkdl博_L在坦桑尼亚一所学

校的教室里做研究的视频给了她灵感。“我想那是在三年级的时候，”她说。“我当时就想,

'哇，我也想成为她那样的人。'"；以及第二段中Asamcmbci'oftheRoots&Shootsin

highschool,shewasinvolvedinmanyserviceprojects,tomakethewor1dabetter

placeforpeople,animals,andtheenvironment.可知作为高中时Roots&Shoots的一

员，她参与了许多服务项目，为人类、动物和环境创造一个更好的世界。由此可推知，Khalifa

加入Roots&Shoots,是为了跟胞JaneGoodall去建立一个更美好的世界。故选

【22题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段中DuringtheIraqWar,sheandherpeersmadeandcollected

artfromstudentsintheUnitedStatesandsentthemtoIraqis.Theprojecttapped

intobothherpassionfcrexpressionthroughartar.dhermitmenttohelpingothers.

可知在伊拉克战争期间，她和她的同龄人从美国的学生那里制作和收集艺术作品，并把它们

寄给伊拉克人。这个项目激发了她对通过艺术表达的热情和她对帮助他人的承诺。由此可推

知，Khalifa是个有爱心乐于助人的人;以及最后一段中"Themountaintop,formeat

least,wshesays,“ismakingapositiveimpactinmymunity,knowingthatIhelped

changenotonlymylifebutotherpeople,slives.vShehopesthatherstorywill

motivateothers.IwanttodothesameforothersthatJanehasdoneforme.That,s

thelongtermgoal."可知"山顶，至少对我来说，”她说，“对我的社区产生了积极的影

响，知道我不仅改变了自己的牛活,而口改变了其他人的牛活。她希望自己的故事能激励其

他人。最后，她说，“我想为其他人做同样的事，就像简为我做的那样。”这是长期目标。”

由此可推知，Khalifa希望能够激励其他人，且有自己的目标，是个有雄心壮志的人。综上，

Khalifa是个有爱心和雄心壮志的人。故选D。

【23题详解】

推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中Shehopestobeaninspirationtowomen,topeopleof

color,andtootherswhouhavethatlittleseed“whowanttoaskquestions,seek

answers,haveanimpactontheirmunities.可知她希望能激励女性、有色人种以及其他

“有那粒小种子”的人一一那些想要提问、寻求答案、对他们的社区产生影响的人。以及最

后一段中"Themountainlop,formeatleast,wshesays,“ismakingapositiveimpact

inmymunity,knowingthatIhelpedchangenotonlymylifebutotherpeople*slives.”

Shehopesthatherstorywillmotivateothers.可知“山顶，至少对我来说，“她说，

“对我的社区产生了积极的影响，知道我不仅改变了白匚的生活，而且改变了其他人的生活。

她希望自己的故事能激励其他人。由此可推知，从Khalifa的话中，人们应该对他人有所影

响。故选C。

【答案】24.A25.D26.B

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如果你插队，你可能就是个坏人。排队是一种规则，奖励

是通过耐心赢得的。如果你插队，可能会引来排队的人的愤怒。文章主要介绍了一些明智的

插队方式。

【24题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段中Yourchoicetoavoidthissimehonoredprocesswillbebound

todrawtheangerofthoseyoupassby,drawingremarkslike“Whoathere,Chief,“

thepassivcaggrcssive“There'saline,youknow!**andofcourse,theincredibly

mon“Hey,Copernicus,whydon'tyouguideyourselftothebackoftheline?”可

知你选择避开这个历史悠久的过程，势必会引来被你插队的人的愤怒，引来诸如“哇，老

大”“没看到在排队吗？”这样的被动攻击性的话语，当然，还有非常常见的话“嘿，哥白

尼，你为什么不把自己引导到队伍的后面去？”由此可推知，作者在第一段使用了关于老大

和哥白尼的评论，是为了举例说明队伍里其他人的反应。故选A。

【25题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中Theregularityofthesituationisveryimportant.（形势的

规律性是很重要的）可知C选项“考虑到事情的规律性”是明智的插队方式；根据倒数第二段

中Forthoserequestsinnormalsituations,emphasizingeithertheurgencyofyour

taskorthesimplicityofyourtaskprovedtobeeffective:experimenterswhosaid

“Excuseme,Ihavefivepages.MayIusethephotocopier?”（对于那些在正常情况下

的请求，强调任务的紧迫性或任务的简单性被证明是有效的：实验者说“不好意思，我有五

页纸。我可以用这台亚印机吗？”）可知B选项“说明活动的紧急情况”属于明智的插队方式;

根据最后一段中Ifyouhaveacoupleofextradollarslyingaround,bribingmembers

ofthelinealsoprovedtobeeffective.（如果你有多余的钱，贿赂队伍中的成员也被证

明是有效的）可知C选项“给排队的人送钱”属于明智的插队方式；只有D选项“捍卫插队的

权利”文章没有提到，不是明智的插队方式。故选D。

【26题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第二段Bui,inthemomentinwhichyoureallycannotwait,forexample,

theentireroyalfamilyhaspreparedadinnerpartyuponyoulastminute,thenthere

isawaytocutthelinecorrectly.可知但是，在你真的等不了的时候，例如，整个皇室

家族在最后一刻为你准备了一场晚宴，那么有一种方法可以正确地插队。结合文章主要说明

了如果你插队，你可能就是个坏人。排队是一种规则，奖励是通过耐心赢得的。如果你插队,

可能会引来排队的人的愤怒。文章主要介绍了一些明智的插队方式。由此可知，B选项“可以

接受的插队方式”最符合文章标题，故选B。

【答案】27.C28.B29.D30.A

【解析】

【分析】

这是一篇说明文.文章介绍了发光的浮游生物，以及说明了浮游生物过度生长会导致海洋生

物的死亡。

【27题详解】

词义猜测题。由第二段中的的“Forstarters,theshiningplanktonhassweetspetsto

whereitshowsupandthenfadesaway,sowhileonthewater,it'simpossibletojust

findit,”首先，发光的浮游生物在它们出现和消失的地方都有自己的闪光点，所以当它们

在水面上的时候，耍找到它们是不可能的。可知，发光的浮游生物在它们出现和消失的地方

都有自己的闪光点，可以推断，“sweetspots”指的是浮游生物出现和消失的地方，是一个

完美的时刻。故选C项。

【28题详解】

细节理解题。由第三段中的"Thoughwitnessingshiningsea1ifeisrare…Thephencmenon

canbeattributedtothepresenceofmillionsofplankton,whichtendtogatherand

reproduceinlargequantitiesinthewarmcoastalwatersduringthistime.虽然

亲眼目睹闪亮的海洋生物是罕见的……这种现象可以归因于数以百万计的浮游生物的存在，

它们在这段时间里倾向于在温暖的沿海水域大量聚集和繁殖。可知，海洋生物发光的主要原

因是，它们被数百万闪亮的浮游生物包围着。故选B项。

【29题详解】

细节理解题。由第三段中的"ThoughamajorityofCalifornia'sredtidesarccausedby

planktonspeciesthatdonotproducedeadIypoison,somealgalblooms（藻花）canbe

dangerousforseaanimals,especial1ywhentheystayforlongperiodsoftime…killed

hundredsoffishandotierseaanimals.w尽管多数加州的赤潮是由不能产生致命的毒药

的浮游生物物种造成的，一些藻花对海洋动物是危险的，恃别是当它们保持很长一段时间……

导致数百条鱼类和其他海洋动物死亡。可以推断，造成海洋生物死亡的原因是藻类的繁殖。

故选D项。

【30题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章介绍了发光的浮游生物，以及说明了浮游生物过度生

长会导致海洋生物的死亡。可以推断，这篇说明文可能出现在报纸的科学版面。故选A项。

【点睛】细节理解题主要考查考生对某句话或某几句话的理解，同学们若能根据题干内容从

原文中找到相关的句子，然后进行比较和分析，便可确定最佳答案。多数情况下，作者不会

明确的呈现一个事实，读者需要根据已有的信息进行处理，读出言外之意。还要特别注意文

章的时间顺序、故事发生的地点、情节的发展和人物之间的关系.例如，第2题，由第三段

中的“ThoughamajorityofCalifornia'sredtidesarecausedbyplanktonspeciesthat

donotproducedeadlypoison,somealgalblooms（藻花）canbedangerousforseaanimals,

especial1ywhentheystayforlongperiodsofIime…killedhundredsoffishandother

seaanimals.”尽管多数加州的赤潮是由不能产生致命的毒药的浮游生物物种造成的，一些

藻花对海洋动物是危险的，特别是当他们保持很长一段时间……导致数百条鱼类和其他海洋

动物死亡。可以推断，造成海洋生物死亡的原因是藻类的繁殖。故选D项。

第二节（共5小题；每题2分，满分10分）

根据短文内容，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。
