【答案】1.A2.B3.C4.B

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。介绍了正在设计中的VSS(旅行者空间站)的结构、收费标准及未来可享受到

的体验与服务。

1.细节理解题。根据第二段第四句"Thesolar-poweredhotelwillspinatspeedshighenoughtocreateartificial

gravity,ensuringguestsacomfortablestay.(这家太阳能酒店将以足够高的速度旋转,以产生人造重力,确保客

人入住舒适)”可知,VSS通过高速旋转营造舒适的环境。故选A。

2.推理判断题。根据第三段前两句"Whiletheideaisinteresting,makingVSSarealitywilltaketime.Theteamis

nowbuildingmodules(舱)forasmallerprototype(样机)ring.(虽然这个想法很有趣,但让VSS成为现实需要时

间。该团队现在正在为一个较小的样机圆环构建模块)”可知,目前VSS还没有实现,还在设计中。故选B。

3.词句猜测题。根据第四段第一句"Eveniftheprototypeiswildlysuccessful,transportingthemodulestospace

willcosttensofbillionsofdollars.(即使样机非常成功,将模块运送到太空也将花费数百亿美元)”可知,旅行

者空间站的搭建耗资巨大,根据划线部分所在句的前半句"However,OAC,whichexpectstocharge$5million

perpersonforeach3-daystay(然而,OAC预计每人每三天收取住宿费用500万美元)”可知,按照这样的收费

标准,是可以抵消前面的巨大开销的。由此可推知,划线部分recouptheexpense表示的是“抵消开支”,与

""Recoverthecosts”表述的内容相同。故选Co

4.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了正在设计中的VSS(旅行者空间站)的结构、收费标准及未来可享受到的

体验与服务,结合文章第一段第一句"ThankstothehardworkofSpaceX,VirginGalactic,andBlueOrigin,

第2页,共37页

spacetourismiswellonthewaytobecomingareality.(多亏了SpaceX,VirginGalactic和BlueOrigin的辛勤工

作,太空旅游正在成为现实)“可知,叮hefirstspacehotelontheway.(第一家太空旅馆即将到来)”适合作为本

文标题。故选B。

8.WhafsKodak'sattitudetowardsMr.Sasson'sinvention?

A.Doubtful.B.Indifferent.C.Supportive.D.Respectful.

【答案】5.C6.D7.A8.B

【导语】这是一篇说明文。Sasson先生发明了全数字摄影系统,但这项技术对柯达公司来说不具备吸引力。

5.细节理解题。根据第二段最后“whichconsistedofasensor(传感器)thattookanincominglightand

transformeditintoanelectricalsignal.(它由一个传感器组成,该传感器接收入射光并将其转换为电信号)”可知,

C.C.D.可以把光变成电子信号。故选C。

6.推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句"Itwasaphotographicsystemofanall-electroniccamerathatdidn'tusefilm

anddidn'tusepaper,andnoconsumables(消耗品)atallinthecapturinganddisplayofstillphotographic

images.(这是一个全电子相机的摄影系统,它不使用胶片,也不使用纸张,在拍摄和显示静止的摄影图像时

根本没有耗材)”可知,摄影系统极大地改变了图像处理的方式。故选D。

7.主旨大意题。根据第三段“Mr.Sassonwantedtocaptureanimagewithit,buttheC.C.D.couldn'tholdit

捕捉图像,但ccd无法保持它,因为电脉冲很快就消失了。为了存储图像,他决定使用数字化技术,将电子

脉冲转化为数字。但这个解决方案带来了另一个挑战——将图像存储在RAM内存中,然后将其存储在数字

磁带上。他还需要发明一种回放系统,可以将磁带上的数字信息转换成“你能在电视机上看到的东西”:数字

图像)”可知,本段主要对全数字摄影系统的工作原理进行了讲解。故选A。

8.推理判断题。根据最后一段"Themainobjectionscamefromthemarketingandbusinesssides.Kodak's

marketingdepartmentwasnotinterestedinit(主要反对意见来自营销和商业方面。柯达的营销部门对此不感兴

趣户可知,柯达对于Sasson的发明很冷漠。故选B。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述一位来自亚美尼亚的小伙子开商店慷慨解囊,为那些经济状况不如

他的人提供免费的面包,后来印制优惠券让需要帮助的人换取白面包或者黑面包。

9.细节理解题。根据第二段中"Heworkedasanengineer,beforesettinguphisownbusiness.(在创业之前,他

Struninocouldexchangeforwhiteorblackbreadathisstore.(那天,他决定印制优惠券,让斯特鲁尼诺的老人

可以在他的店里用这些优惠券换取白面包或黑面包)”可知,Mamoud打算先给镇上的老人慷慨解囊。故选C。

11.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Localauthoritiesdon'tcareaboutmyinitiative(地方当局不关心我的倡议)”

可知,当地政府对此丝毫不关心。故选C。

12.主旨大意题。根据第一段"Forthelast8years,about200residentsofStrunino,asmalltowninRussia's

VladimirOblastregionhavenothadtoworryaboutbuyingbread,thankstothegenerosityofalocalgrocerystore

名居民不必担心买不到面包,这要归功于当地一家杂货店老板的慷慨解囊,他一直免费发放面包)”结合文章

主要讲述一位来自亚美尼亚的小伙子开商店慷慨解囊,为那些经济状况不如他的人提供免费的面包,后来

印制优惠券让需要帮助的人换取白面包或者黑面包。故A项“MamoudShavershyan无私地帮助他人”符合文

章标题。故选A。

【答案】13.A14.A15.B16.C

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。丹妮尔・贝伦尼(DanielleBelleny)从小就喜欢野生动物。现在,年纪轻轻的她已

经成了一位野生动物学家。同时,她还是一个观鸟者和作家。

13.细节理解题。根据第一段中的"Shewantedtobeaveterinarian,apersonwhocantreatsickorinjuredanimals,

atfirst.”(起初,她想成为一名兽医,一个可以治疗生病或受伤动物的人。)可知,贝伦尼最初想当一名兽医。

故选Ao

14.主旨大意题。第三段第二句到最后一句提到""Inthemornings,Tmusuallyoutthedoorbeforesunrise,she

says.Shesurveysbirds,keepingtrackofdifferentspecies."(“早上,我通常在日出前出门,”她说。她调查鸟类,

t己录不同种类的鸟类。);“Aroundlunchtime,she911returnhomeandwriteupareport.Intheafternoon,sheleaves

foranothersitevisit.Landownerscanrequestherservices.”(午餐时间左右,她会回家写一份报告。下午,她又

去实地考察了。)由此可知,本段主要在谈她的野外工作。故选A。

15.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的"Tryeverythingyou'reinterestedinthroughbooksandlibraries.Ifyou're

intowildlifebiology,gotoalibraryandfindsomefieldguides.”(尝试所有你感兴趣的书籍和图书馆。如果你对

野生动物生物学感兴趣,去图书馆找一些野外指南。)可知,贝伦尼给年轻人建议:要多看书,多到图书馆去

看自己已感兴趣的书籍。故选B。

16.推理判断题。根据第——段中的"DanielleBellenyalwaysoutdoors,pickingupinsectsandinvestigatingthe

animalworldonherown.Shehadn'tyetheardofwildlifebiology,butthafswhatshewaslearning

about."(DanielleBelleny总是在户外,独自捕捉昆虫和调查动物世界。她还没有听说过野生动物生物学,但

这就是她正在学习的东西。)及“IalwaysknewIwantedtoworkwithanimals”(我一直都知道我要和动物们一

起工作)以及最后一段"tryeverythingyou9reinterestedinthroughbooksandlibraries”(尝试所有你感兴趣的书籍

和图书馆)可知,正是由于贝伦尼对一直对动物很感兴趣,她才成为今天的野生动物学家。由此她的故事说

明一个道理:兴趣是最好的老师。故选C。

军的追梦经历。

21.细节理解题。根据文章第一段"Writtenacrossthebottomarethenamesofthemembersoftherunningteams

thathavebroughtMcFarlandninestatechampionshipsoverthepasttwentyyears.(写在底部的是田径队成员的

名字,他们曾在过去的二十年里给McFarland镇拿下九次州冠军。厂可知,被人们称作“州冠军之家”是因为

这里的田径队曾获得过九次加州越野赛跑的冠军,故选B项。

22.推理判断题o根据第四段“Myfamilyhasbeenworkingonfarmspickingalmondsforfortyyears.Youand

yourfamily,livinginyourbigcomfortablehome,eatthesewithoutgivingasinglethoughttowheretheycame

realshoesforrunning.(四十年来这里没有任何改变,也不会有任何改变!跑步是大城市里私立学校的富家子

弟的事,不是我们这些乡下穷小子的事。我们甚至买不起真正的跑步鞋。)”可知,队员们都家境贫苦,需要

通过繁重的体力劳动养活自己,他们沮丧地认为生活多艰,根本无法追逐梦想,故选C项。

23.推理判断题。根据最后一段"Hewentintothefieldsandworkedwiththe"pickers".Heboughtrunningshoes

money.(他走进田间地头,和“采摘者”一起工作。他给孩子们买了跑鞋。每天晚上都和孩子们的家人一起吃

饭。他的妻子烘焙并出售饼干来筹集资金。)”可知,为了与队员们建立信任并且真正走入队员们的生活,Jim

White与他们的家人同吃同劳动,还为他们买了跑鞋,甚至积极筹措资金,改善队员们的训练条件,这些举

动充分表明JimWhite善解人意,待人真诚。故选B项。
