9、.【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中第一句“.it was different.”以及第二句“He decided to take his daughter along with him.”可知，这一次的不同之处在于他的女儿将与他一起潜水，故选D项。根据第一段第三句“She was only ten years old.”可知A项错误。B、C两项均不符合题意。【答案】D2What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?ALarry had some privileges.BLarry liked the rented diving suits.CDivers had

11、有导师指导并训练他，在他那个年龄的孩子甚至不被允许去潜水，由此可推断，他有一些特权，故选A项，同时可推知D项错误。根据该段第四、五句“.by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore.He had hated them.”可知B项错误。C项在本段中找不到相关信息。【答案】A3Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes?ATo protect himself from danger.BTo dive into the deep w

13、er him”的补充，而不是Larry不得不待在笼子里的原因，故不能选。【答案】A4What did Larry expect his daughter to do?ABecome a successful diver.BMake a good diving guide.CTake a lot of photos underwater.DHave longer hours of training.【解析】细节理解题。根据本文最后一句“This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.”可知，Larry期望他的女儿成为一位成功的潜水员。

20、her.BTeaching is a rewarding job.CIt is not easy to be a teacher.DTeachers should be respected.【解析】句意猜测题。根据这句话的字面意思“那些不会做事情的人，就去教书吧”可以推知，其主要说明教书没有什么技术含量，基本上人人都可以当老师，故应该选A选项“人人都可以当老师”。【答案】A6In seventh grade，Mr.Lombrana Ataught all the subjects including mathsBinspired the authors love for literatureC
21、tried to help the author write creativelyDbuilt a good speech and debate team【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第三段的第三句“Mr.Lombrana let us have a love of literature”可知，Lombrana老师使作者以及作者班上的学生都爱上了文学。【答案】B7According to the author，a good teacher should Ateach in a quite unique wayBget on well with his studentsChave a wide r

23、fe.Frank Hurleys pictures would be outstandingundoubtedly firstrate photojournalismif they had been made last week.In fact，they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海难), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival.Many of the images were stored
24、 in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegianbuilt threemaster that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all，to the southernmost shore of Antarcticas Weddell Sea.From

27、a onetime British merchantnavy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography.Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic，was hired to make the images,
28、 most of which have never before been published.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。1914年到1916年间，一群海员和科学家踏上了南极探险之路。结果他们在回来的路上发生海难，其中一个摄影师在临死之前拍摄了大量的照片，并把照片封存在破损的木船的冰块箱里。通过这些照片我们可以了解到那次不太成功的探险经历。8What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?AThey were made last week.BThey showed undersea sceneries.CThey were found by
29、 a cameraman.DThey recorded a disastrous adventure.【解析】细节理解题。由题干中的the photos taken by Hurley定位到文章第二段开头。该段说这些照片即使是上个星期拍的也堪称佳作，故A项错误；该段中还说照片是在一次海难之后拍的，故D项正确；文章没有说拍摄的是海底景观，故B项错误；拍摄者是摄影师，但没有说是一名摄影师发现了这些照片，故C项错误。【答案】D9Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?AFrank Hurley.BErnest Shackleton
30、.CRobert Falcon Scott.DCaroline Alexander.【解析】推理判断题。由题干中的“第一个到达南极”这条信息定位到第三段。被发现的照片所展示的这次旅行是为了获得比Robert Falcon Scott船长先前的探险更大的收获，该船长在1912年就到达了南极。由此推断Robert Falcon Scott是最先到达南极的人，故选C项。【答案】C10What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?AArtistic creation.BScientific research.CMoney ma
31、king.DTreasure hunting.【解析】细节理解题。题干的Alexander在最后一段出现，the 1914 voyage指本文谈到的Endurance这艘船的探险，该段开头说，这个作家在她的小说The Endurance中说，在那时，探险就已经是纯商业活动(a thoroughly commercial effort)了，因此1914年航行的目的是赚钱(money making)，故选C项。A项“艺术创作”，B项“科学调研”，D项“寻宝”，均未体现。【答案】C.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题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

38、16题空上应填一句连接前后两句的句子，F项意为“但是我们经常度过自己的人生，却不知道自己做了什么”。12D第二段的标题意为“意识到决定的巨大力量。”空后以吸烟为例，介绍了如果你决定吸烟和决定不吸烟产生的不同的一系列影响，所以此空应填D，意为“你所做的任何决定都会产生一系列影响。”13B本段主要内容是如果你做了一个决定，就要将其付诸行动，否则和没做决定一样，所以标题应为B，意为“实施你的决定。”14E本段主要观点是“将你的决定告诉别人。”作者举自己决定早起的例子来对观点进行说明，最后一句应为作者通过实践“将决定告诉别人”所达到的效果，所以应为E，意为“两天我就能够做到了”。15A本段标题意为“享
39、受做决定的快乐。”正文主要告诉读者如何做到享受做决定这一乐事，所以此空应为A，意为“享受做决定的过程。”.完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Everyone has a weakness and thats OK.If we 16 doing what we are strong at and let others do things we are weak at, we will get much more 17 This is where team work comes in.Not everyone
