17、searchshowstheopposite.正确。4.G细节句。根据下文可知,研究发现睡眠不足与生产力水平下降、工作表现不佳以及安全性更差有关,故G项Poorsleeporlackofsleepcarriessomeprettynegativeresults.(睡眠不好或睡眠不足会带来一些相当负面的后果。)正确。5.A主题句。根据空后的内容可知,本段讲的是锻炼,A项Theyvaluefitness.(他们重视健康。)与锻炼身体有关,故选A。高级词块1.prolongedadj.长期的2.stickto 坚持3.stayup熬夜长难句原句:Settingasidealittletimehere

24、tartedonaprojectisnotalifeanddeathdecision.G.Theresultisthattimepassesandsodoestheperfectmoment.答案语篇解读如果我们心中有想法,就应该立即行动起来,深思熟虑、精心计划固然好,但经常会让我们犹豫不决以至于失去最初的热情而最终无法将想法付诸实践。1.C细节句。作者开始在第二段呈现自己的观点:尽管会有种种理由阻止我们将心中的想法付诸行动,但唯一的解决办法就是立即行动起来。故选C项。2.G细节句。此空前文指出人们在有了想法后往往会想要设计完美的计划,花大量时间考虑把一切都安排得妥当、完美,这样就会消磨掉热情
25、,因而此处提出这样的结果便是时间过去了,完美的时机也过去了。3.A细节句。前文提到忘记试图成为一个完美主义者,指出这是不可取的。故A项符合此意。4.F细节句。本段的大意是:立即行动起来,有个初步计划即可,之后慢慢改进。F项“开始一个项目并不是生与死的决定”符合此意。5.D细节句。本段提到一个不完美的“行动派”以及他的话,此处说到“但是现今他值得我们学习”,故选D。高级词块1.trialanderror反复试验2.perfectionistn.完美主义者3.takeaction采取行动长难句原句:Whiletherearemanyreasonsthatmaystopsomeonefromstar
26、tingaprojecttheyhaveinmind,fearbeingthemostobvious,theideaofperfectionismseemstobethesecondmost.分析:此句为主从复合句,其主句是theideaofperfectionismseemstobethesecondmost。前面是由while引导的让步状语从句,从句中that引导的定语从句修饰先行词reasons。fearbeingthemostobvious是一个独立主格结构。译文:尽管有很多理由可能会阻止某人开始实施头脑中的项目,害怕是最明显的,完美主义的想法是第二明显的。Passage4Muchof

33、rdependencedistinguishesbaseballfromfootballandbasketball.答案语篇解读本文为议论文,主题语境为人与社会,主题语境内容为体育精神。本文主要讨论了一个团队是否需要很多有天赋的个人加入。文章有助于培养学生的思维品质。1.B细节句。设空处后的“Companiesspendmillionshiringtopbusinesspeople.”与本空为并列关系,故答案为B项(体育团队的老板们花数百万美元吸引顶尖人才)。2.E主题句。根据下文尤其是“Theyfocusedonfootball,basketballandbaseball.”以及“There
34、sults”可知,答案为E项。句意:最近的几项研究调查了人才在体育世界中的作用。3.G过渡句。本段主要说明了任务互依性在不同的运动项目中的作用以及对团队表现产生的影响,与G项中的taskinterdependence相对应,故答案为G项。4.D细节句。根据设空处前的Ifabasketballstaris,forexample,.Youngchildrenlearningtoplayteamsportsareoftentold, “ThereisnoIinTEAM.”可知答案为D项(明星们显然不愿遵循体育精神的这个基本的原则)。5.F主题句。根据设空处后的“AnA-teammayrequirea
35、balancenotjustAplayers.”可知答案为F项(建立一个理想的团队比仅仅雇用最好的人才更复杂)。高级词块1.mixedadj.复杂的;混合的;混杂的2.declinev.减少,下降,衰弱,衰退3.interdependencen.互相依赖长难句原句:Interestingly,thistrendisntevidentinbaseball,whereadditionalindividualtalentkeepsimprovingtheteamsperformance.分析:本句为主从复合句。where引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为baseball。译文:有趣的是,这一趋势在棒球运

44、下文解释了社会保证号码的信息。因此D项符合本段的主旨。3.E细节句。由后面的Theyshouldbeascomplicatedaseachsitessystemcanbearandneverfewerthan12characters可知,密码应该复杂一些,不少于12个字符。由此可知,E项“专家建议每个网上账户有独一无二的密码”符合语境和逻辑。4.F细节句。由上文可知,你可以以文本、电子邮件或电话的形式收到来自想要进入的软件的代码,这样进入账户就会安全。窃贼没有你的手机,得不到代码,被拒绝进入,这就增加了安全性。F项符合语境和逻辑。5.A主题句。使用借记卡在网上购物,信息被盗取的话,你会受到伤害
45、,不仅是因为网上购物而且是因为如果卡被偷的话你会蒙受经济损失,账户上的钱被取光。由此可知,不要用借记卡在网上购物,故A选项切题。长难句原句:Ofitsninedigits,thefirstthreearetiedtowhereyoulived,thenexttwoareagroupnumberwithinthatgeographicallocation,andthelastfourareyourserialnumber.分析:这是一个复杂的句子,三个主语分别是thefirstthree,thenexttwo和thelastfour。whereyoulived是介词to 的宾语从句。译文:在九位
46、数字中,前三个数字与你居住的地方相关,接着的两个是地理位置的组号,最后四个是序列号。Passage6Weshouldntjudgeapersonbytheirappearancebutwedo.Infact,expertssaythatwhenwemeetsomeoneforthefirsttimewemakeadecisionaboutwhatthatpersonislikeinthreeseconds.1Oneofthemostimportantthingswelookatisclothes,butitisntthebrandofclothesthatpeoplewearthatisimp

51、earsuitsordresses.答案语篇解读本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了服装对人们的影响。1.C细节句。从后文的Oneofthemostimportantthingswelookatisclothes可知,这里讨论的是我们看的是什么。故C项正确。2.D细节句。本段讲述的是校服的作用,而D项符合这一主题。3.F过渡句。上段讲述的是学校会要求学生穿校服。而本段讲述的是除了学校,还有很多工作和场所要求员工穿相应的工作服。F项起到了承上启下的作用。4.G细节句。本段讲述的是其他行业穿工作服的情况,而G项是有关银行工作人员穿工作服的事情,符合本段的主题。5.A细节句。本段论述的主题是穿着对我们的影响
52、。A项的句意符合该主题。高级词块1.brandn.品牌,牌子2.uniformn.制服,校服3.identifiableadj.可辨认的,可识别的答案长难句原句:Infact,expertssaythatwhenwemeetsomeoneforthefirsttimewemakeadecisionaboutwhatthatpersonislikeinthreeseconds.分析:第一个that引导宾语从句。宾语从句中又含有时间状语从句whenwemeetsomeoneforthefirsttime 和宾语从句whatthatpersonislike。译文:事实上,专家们说,当我们第一次见到某

58、sfast-paced,artful,andfulfillingasthefoot-basedvariety.答案语篇解读这是一篇记叙文。自幼想做舞蹈家的希尔,17岁的时候遭遇了一场车祸导致腰部以下瘫痪。但她没有放弃自己的梦想,坚持学习,耐心训练,最终成立了一个残疾人舞蹈队,鼓舞了来自世界各地的很多人。1.E“希尔遭遇了一场车祸,她在医院里待了51天,腰部以下都瘫痪了”是“毁掉大部分人对舞蹈事业的所有希望”的原因。结合后句“对希尔来说,这是一个开始。”可知应该选E。2.D通读语篇,结合前句可知希尔想向她的社区和自己证明,她仍然是正常的,她为此做了不懈努力,所以此处应该选D(无论正常意味着什么,
59、它肯定需要大量的学习和耐心。)。3.F由下文中“她邀请她们和她一起跳舞”“希望接触更大的城市里的更多的人”以及“来自10个国家的173名参与者参加了这个活动”可知,此处应该选F(毕业后,希尔想扩大她的舞蹈网络,让像她这样的女性也参与进来。)。4.A由前句“到目前为止,希尔已经实现了她儿时的梦想。”以及后句“她每年都会为轮椅使用者举办一个舞蹈营,2019年,来自10个国家的173名参与者参加了这个活动。”可知,A项(但是Rollettes舞蹈队的成员帮她发现了更多。)符合语境。5.B由前句舞蹈队的成员所说的话和一位在YouTube上看到了这个舞蹈队的比赛视频的女士的评价可知,B项(舞者并不是唯一
60、受到鼓舞的人。)符合语境。Passage8“Communicationisthemostessentialandsociableofallhumanbehaviors”,whichisabsolutelytrueasforhumancommunity.Communicationisthemajorityofeveryonessociallife.“Withoutcommunication,lifewouldbeascoldasarock.”1Becausethesecertainconversationscanmakepeopleattracted.Personally,weshouldcon

65、Furthermore,goodcommunicationisaninterestingattractioninourdailylife.答案语篇解读本文是说明文。主题语境是人与社会。交流是人类日常行为中不可缺少的部分。那么,怎么才能顺利交流呢?本文从三个方面介绍了交流的策略,即充分准备、学会倾听、重视目光交流。1.G设空处前面提到交流的意义。而设空处后面提到某些对话可以使人备受吸引(attracted)。选项G中提到“agoodcommunicationisaninterestingattraction”,在此处衔接恰当。故选G。2.F设空处前面提到准备好相关的问题有利于良好的交流,后面又提
66、到我们可以问一些表示我们的礼貌、尊重和关心的问题。故选F(人们认为被问好的问题是相当舒服的。)。3.E设空处前面提到“Themostimportantpartofcommunicationistolisten.”,要我们学会倾听,设空处后面提到要给别人诉说的机会。因此设空处要表达我们的具体做法:认真倾听,换位思考。故选E。4.B通读该段内容可知,该段强调目光交流在对话中的作用。B项提到眼睛是心灵的窗户,符合语境。故选B。5.C该空位于段末,容易被误认为该段的总结。其实,该段的结构分为两部分:首先强调目光交流在对话中的作用,最后两句又提到不当对视的不妥。But有导向作用,设空处前面提到不要进行不
67、当对视,设空处当然要讲不当对视的影响。故选C。Passage9Peoplewholovetospendtimeintheirkitchenknowthatafterhavingaroughdayithelpsthemtorelievestress.Cookingafavoritemealhelpsyouforgetaboutanyoftheissuesyouwerefocusedonduringtheday.1Spendingtimealoneinthekitchenafteralongdayatworkallowsyoutosimplyrechargeandenjoythesolitudeo
