A文章出处题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了新加坡的四个画廊和博物馆,包括其地址、电话、开放时间以及服务特色等。通过发散思维可推知,本文最可能选自旅游宣传手册,故A项正确。 B语篇解读:已经工作多年的Montefiore重返
66、大学后,不仅继续修完本科课程,更意识到了教育的无穷价值。24. C。细节理解题。根据第二段可知。Montefiore在1996年退学,2018年又回到学校继续完成学业,这是他已经42岁,毕业时已经44岁,所以比起正常学生,他在这个年纪毕业有些不同寻常。25. A。词义猜测题。根据划线单词后面的in order to improve himself and work well in future可知,Montefiore重返校园是想继续提升自己,以后可以工作得更好。由此可以推知,Montefiore的工作发展停滞。stall意为“暂缓;搁置”。26. B。推理判断题。根据第三段前两句可知,Mon
67、tefiore没有翘过任何一节课,每次都做在教室前排听讲,还两次获得优秀学生奖。由此可以推知,他这次对待学习很认真。27. D。段落大意题。根据最后一段Montefiore说的话可知,他明白了教育的价值,教育不仅给他带来学位证书,方便他找工作,还增加了他的自信和自尊。也就是说这次经历使他明白教育能够让人对自己更满意。C语篇解读:本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了学校因为考试的压力减少体育课的时间,以及减少体育课带来的问题。28.

69、 and dangerous.(心理健康基金会发言人Cal Strode表示,缩短体育锻炼时间是“目光短浅且危险的”。)”可知,Cal Strode表示,缩短体育锻炼时间是“目光短浅和危险的”。30. C。细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Rising exam stress has been raised as a problem by experts who warn that children are under greater pressure because of a competitive jobs market. (越来越大的考试压力是专家们提出的一个问题,他们警告说,由于就业市场竞
70、争激烈,孩子们面临着更大的压力。)”可知,考试的压力是来自于竞争激烈的就业市场,也就是将来的工作。31. D。主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Schools in the UK are cutting time spent on PE lessons because of exam pressures.(由于考试压力,英国的学校正在减少体育课的时间。)”及全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了学校因为考试的压力减少体育,以及减少体育课带来的问题。所以“Schools cutting down PE time for exam pressure(学校因考试压力而减少体育课时间)”作为文章标题最为合适。D语篇解
71、读:这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了宇航员把水晶泥带入太空进行实验以及这个实验的重要意义。32. C 推理判断题。根据第一段“If you grew up watching the kids television channel Nickelodeon, you will probably understand that there is nothing greater than enjoying its special bright green slime ( 水晶泥). The week of May 11, astronauts (宇航员) aboard the International

B 细节理解题。根据第二段“The green slime was also used to guide astronauts through a series of expe
73、riments that were designed to learn more about how slime acts in microgravity.”(这种绿色的水晶泥还被用来指导宇航员进行一系列实验,这些实验旨在更多地了解水晶泥在微重力下的作用。)可知,在太空进行水晶泥实验是为了更好地了解水晶泥在微重力下的表现。34. C 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This experiment shows how microgravity can help us understand things on Earth, especially the things we take for grante
74、d.”(这个实验展示了微重力如何帮助我们理解地球上的事物,特别是那些我们认为理所当然的事物)可知,Koch认为水晶泥实验显示了微重力怎样帮助我们理解地球上的事物,所以他对这个实验是肯定的态度。A.Puzzeled困惑的;B.Worried 担心的;C.Positive 积极的,肯定的;D.Uninterested不感兴趣的。35. B 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The week of May 11, astronauts (宇航员) aboard the International Space Station(ISS) joined the slime.”(这周的5月11日,国际空间站上的宇航员
75、把水晶泥带入了太空)是全文的主题句,结合全文内容可知,文章主要围绕宇航员把水晶泥带入太空进行实验以及这个实验所带来的意义。所以这篇文章最好的标题是“宇航员为了科学把水晶泥带入太空”。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)FBEGD本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了作者在学习教授学生如何变得更快乐的心理学课程后,作者推荐了一些让人都能真正变得更快乐的建议。36. 根据上文After taking the course, I believe that anyone who follows the suggestions can truly become happier.
