10、。根据倒数第二段中“Tourist service centres in the Expo Site provide services including information inquiry(查询), storage of personal belongings, wheelchair and stroller renting, lost found service, and search for missing persons.”可知,园区的游客服务中心提供的服务包括信息查询、个人物品的存放、轮椅和婴儿车的租赁、失物招领和走失者的搜寻等,但不出售纪念品(selling the souve
11、nirs)。3D推理判断题。根据第二段中“please wait in lines and get your ID card ready for pre-check, ticket check and security inspection before entering.”可知,进入园博会前需排队等候,并准备好身份证,以便在入场前进行预检、检票和安全检查。所以游客要在进入园区前出示身份证。BA few years ago, my husband Charlie and I had marital problems.Growing family responsibilities and fin

21、间的问题。5D词义猜测题。根据第二段最后两句“Through countless discussions, we began to close the gulf. The more honest we were, the closer we became.”可知,作者和丈夫解决了他们之间的问题,关系越来越融治。再根据画线部分所在句子中“I asked my husband to give me an eternity(永恒)ring”可推知,作者感觉她和丈夫的关系已经很好了,他们已经和好如初了。6C细节理解题。根据第五段中“On the drive home, I didnt take my
22、eyes off it. ”可知,作者在回家的路上眼睛一直盯着那枚结婚戒指,因为它经过擦拭后重新放出了光芒,犹如丈夫刚给她的那天一样。7C推理判断题。根据最后一段中“And thats the way it is with a marriage. You have to work at keeping it polished and new, or else the grime(污垢)of the passing years will hide the joy.”可知,作者认为对待婚姻也应该像对待那枚戒指一样,经常除垢,经常发现婚姻生活中的闪光点,使婚姻保持新鲜。CMarian Bechtel

31、中“A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent)have breakfast alone and nearly half(46 percent)have lunch by themselves.”可知,在美国,约有46%的用餐是独自进行的。超过53%的人们独自吃早餐,46%的人们独自吃午餐,故可知本段的数据是关于用餐习惯的。9C细节理解题。根据第三段中“A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from t
32、apping her on the shoulder. Today, I just wanted some time to myself.”可知,Bechtel一个人吃午饭可以让她逃离老板的关注,给自己留一些自由时间。10D推理判断题。根据第四段中“He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom hes on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流)”可知,Mazoleny喜欢这样
33、的气氛,因为可以坐在那里,查看手机信息,或者想聊天了,可以直呼吧台服务员名字和他聊天。故可知,他与服务员很熟悉,可以直呼对方名字。11A主旨大意题。本文通过一份调查结果显示,很大比例的人选择独自用餐,原因很多,比如逃离工作氛围,或者反思自己,但是独自用餐正慢慢成为一种趋势。DSpring is coming, and it is time for those about to graduate to look for jobs.Competition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices.

42、装也会影响招聘经理对其的印象。12C细节理解题。根据第二段中“A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos(纹身) nose rings, or certain dress styles.”可知,报纸编辑认为有纹身或者鼻环的人也应该被公平对待。13D推理判断题。根据第二段中“Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is
43、 often about what customers accept.”可知,在职场着装不只代表个人形象更代表公司形象。14B主旨大意题。本文介绍了公司职员的着装是否得体不只代表个人还代表公司,而求职者的着装也会影响招聘经理对其的印象,由此可知文章的主要内容为着装,四个选项中只有B项提到了着装,所以 “Appearances Matter”最合适。15A细节理解题。根据最后一段中“There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer.
44、 No company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.”可知,作者认为求职者因为奇装异服而被公司拒绝是很正常的,因为很少有公司会为求职者改变标准,求职者应该改变自己来符合公司的要求。由此可知作者对奇装异服的态度是负面的。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,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

52、ow you can get scholarships for less-known sports(我知道这对足球运动员来说很明显,体育运动将增加这种可能性,但你知道不太出名的运动也能让你获得奖学金吗)?”中的“ the football player”可知,这些都是属于运动员(athlete)的范畴,故一些较高的奖学金是给大学运动员的,故选E项。18F上文“Try volunteering in your community or a community chapter of a major organization(尝试在你所在的社区或大型组织的社区分会做志愿者)”讲到要参与社区义务工作,
53、下文说明这是因为有效的社会义务工作会让你在大学里高人一筹,故F项中的“community service”符合此意。19B根据下文“Try building a personal connection with someone at a scholarship society(试着和奖学金协会的人建立个人联系)”以及主要内容可知,本段主要讲要通过各种方法和奖学金评选活动成员保持联络,以增加获选的可能性。故B项“Keep in touch. ”符合语境。20C本段最后一句“Applying early can lead to more applications overall, and some
54、one who applies to 100 scholarships against 10 has a much better chance of being awarded(提前申请可以带来更多的申请,申请100个奖学金的人比申请10个奖学金的人更有可能获得奖学金)!”可知,申请奖学金其实也是一种“数字游戏(numbers game)”。第二部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Unchangeable LoveOne day I visited an art museum
