32、响力,对迷你裙和热裤的流行起了非常大的作用。1A考查细节理解。本题问的是“哪个展览会带你回到二十世纪六十年代?”根据题干中的关键词“the 1960s”定位到原文第一个展览会介绍中的“the trends of the 1960s”,由此可知正确答案为A。2B考查细节理解。本题问的是“如果你对绘画作品感兴趣,你需要付多少钱买一张票?”。根据题干中的关键词paintings定位到原文第二个展览会介绍的第一句“The exhibition at the Tate Britain brings together 50 pieces of Vincent van Goghs classic works
33、”,再根据该部分中的“Tickets:22”可知,正确答案为B。3C考查细节理解。本题问的是“你在Diane Arbus展览会上能看到什么?”。根据题干中的关键词Diane Arbus定位到原文第三个展览会介绍中的“Titled Diane Arbus:In the Beginning, it covers the first half of her career, featuring more than 100 photographs taken across New York landmarks such as Times Square and Coney Island, more tha

36、ing up on a farm in Honduras”可知,他带孩子来这里是因为这里让他想起了他的童年。故选C项。6A考查词义猜测。根据对画线短语所在句的理解可知,本句是说果园的经营者对来果园参加节日活动的游客表示感激,因为这些日子果园的资金有些周转不开,由此可推知,画线短语和guarantee“保证”含义相近。故选A项。7D考查主旨大意。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了Buder果园的一些活动项目和它在巩固他人家庭关系上发挥的作用。故D项最能概括文意。【语篇解读】本文是说明文。气候变暖导致海冰融化,北极熊登陆,为阿拉斯加的一个小村庄带来了巨大的人气,促进了当地旅游业发展,当地人又用旅游业的收

38、r food”可知,全球变暖加速了海冰融化,破坏了北极熊原本的栖息地,故越来越多的北极熊待在陆地上以寻找食物,故选B。【易错点拨】本题易错选A项。很多考生根据第二段最后一句中的“more bears are remaining on land to look for food”就武断地认为北极熊待在陆地上是因为食物短缺,而忽略了“increasingly higher temperature has sped up the movement of sea ice”这一关键信息。9C考查观点态度。根据第三段的内容可知,随着越来越多的北极熊出现在陆地上,研究人员、生物学家等也越来越多地关注北极熊所
39、处的这一困境,随后,更多游客前往Kaktovik。由此可推知,大众对更多北极熊登陆现象表示关注。故选C项。10A考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“Most tourists visit in the fall”“Many tourists stay several days in the village, which has two small hotels”可知,大多数游客会选择在秋季去Kaktovik游览,而且很多游客会在这个小村庄待上几天,而这个小村庄只有两个小旅馆,故可推知在秋季,Kaktovik的旅馆很抢手。11D考查推理判断。通读文章可知,因为全球气候变暖,北极熊被迫登陆来寻找食物以
40、生存下去,这本来是北极熊的困境,然而北极熊登陆却为一个小村庄带来了旅游业的发展,这对小村庄来说是一个机遇,同时,村民又利用旅游业收入为北极熊提供更多保护。因此D项“事物都有两面性”符合语境。.阅读七选五【语篇解读】本文开头指出“健康比财富更重要”,接着分别从饮食、睡眠、锻炼这三个方面给我们作出了保持健康的指导。1B本空承上启下,引出文章的主题,故B项符合语境。2A根据文章结构和空处所在位置可知,此空为段落主题句。根据本段内容,尤其是“foods high in protein(蛋白质)”“vitamins and minerals”可知,本段主要讲适当的营养对保持健康的重要性。故答案选A。3E空前一句是说确保七到九个小时的睡眠,故E项“然后你的身体将会强壮,你的思维会敏锐”符合语境,承接上文。4G根据空后的“It also improves your heart and lungs”可知,空处应也是叙述锻炼对身体的具体好处,故G项符合语境。5F根据该段主题句中的“get plenty of exercise”和空后一句列举的多种运动方式,以及下文中的“Sports”可知,F项符合语境。
