80、ABB610BCCBA1115CCABC1620CBCCC第二部分第一节A【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了欧洲音乐节的相关信息。21答案与解析:D细节理解题。根据Melt! Festival, Germany中的“Around 90% of the people attending the festival are German, providing a perfect chance to practise speaking the language.”可知,Melt! Festival的特别之处是大多数参加节日的人是德国人,故选D项。22答案与解析:A细节理解题。根据Exit Fes
81、tival, Serbia中的“the festival began as a way to show peoples dissatisfaction with the government. These days its less political (政治的).”可知,Exit Festival开始是出于政治目的,故选A项。23答案与解析:C细节理解题。根据Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival, Scotland中的“The most enjoyable part of the weekend is the ceilidh (traditional Scottis
82、h dance and party) which is always a lively event. It doesnt even matter if youre a beginner because the band teaches you each dance.”可知,教人们苏格兰舞蹈让Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival与众不同,故选C项。B【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述身残志坚的69岁老人夏伯渝克服重重困难,实现自己登顶珠穆朗玛峰的梦想。24答案与解析:D细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词“surprised the world”定位到第一段。根据文中第一段可
83、知,69岁的夏伯渝身残志坚,坚持完成自己登顶珠穆朗玛峰的梦想。25答案与解析:B细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词“lose his two legs”定位到第三段。根据文中第三段可知,恶劣的天气、睡袋的缺乏使夏伯渝失去了双腿。文中提到他在截肢后罹患癌症,故排除A项;C项“单薄的衣服”,文中未提及,故C项不正确;文中第三段提到睡袋的缺乏,而不是睡袋质量的问题,故排除D项。26答案与解析:D推理判断题。根据文中最后一段第一句可知,夏伯渝在2018年实现了自己的梦想。27答案与解析:A推理判断题。纵览全文,夏伯渝在双腿截肢的情况下,仍然为了自己攀登珠穆朗玛峰的梦想克服重重困难而多次做出努力。故推知其“
84、意志力坚强”。C【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章阐明了世界淡水危机加剧的趋势、原因以及解决办法。28答案与解析:B推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“Water supplies around the planet are running dry at an alarming speed.(全球水供给正以一个令人担忧的速度枯竭。)”可推知,水供给枯竭使人恐惧。A项错因:曲解文意,根据第一段第二句“Scientists say the world is experiencing a shortage of fresh water.”可知,地球上缺少的是淡水;C项错因:无中生有,第一段并未提及人口增长
85、越来越快的信息;D项错因:以偏概全,第一段中提到美国西部缺水,但并不是整个美国缺水。29答案与解析:D词义猜测题。根据第四段“In much of the world, shortage of fresh water is an increasingly wouldbe crisis that will only be exacerbated by climate change and a growing population.(在世界的大部分地方,缺少淡水是一个日益增长的危机,而该危机将仅仅由于气候的变化和人口的增长而恶化。)”结合选项可知,画线词意为“恶化”。A项错因:improve“改善
86、”,与画线词所在句子含义矛盾;B项错因:change“变化”,不确切,可以变好也可以变坏;C项错因:destroy“毁坏”,夸大其词。30答案与解析:A推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“.the amount of water on the earth has not changed for billions of years, but the ratio of fresh to salt water has.(几十亿年来,地球上水的量是没有变化的,但是淡水与海水的比率发生了变化(降低)。)”可知,地球上的水体总量没有变化,而淡水越来越少,故可推知“咸水增加了”。B项错因:与倒数第二段最后一句相反
87、。C项错因:文中没有提到阿拉伯人宁愿进口淡水而不愿淡化海水;D项错因:无中生有,文中并未有相关信息。31答案与解析:C观点态度题。本文作者自始至终引用科学家所说的话来说明淡水危机日益严重,并没有提出自己的观点,据此可知,作者是秉着实事求是的态度写作的。D【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。理想的师生关系应该是什么样的,这一直是一个热点话题,本文从师生如何学会适应,教师如何给予学生成就感、让学生体验成功的快乐等几个方面说明了这一问题。32答案与解析:C写作意图题。文章第一段作者提到了导游,其目的在于使自己的观点阐述得更加清楚,文章写作目的要服务于文章主旨,全文主旨是在讨论the ideal teach
