26、己)习惯于”,符合句意。4解析:选C。句意:缺乏对当地文化的了解可能会造成一些问题。existence存在;revolution革命;awareness意识;evidence证据。5解析:选B。考查情态动词表推测的用法。由上句didnt 可知是对过去事情的推测,might not have done 表示“有可能不做”,而could not have done 表示“不可能做过”。6解析:选B。句意:我们大家仍都记得几年前侵袭四川的那次可怕的地震。表示自然灾害“侵害”了某地,我们可以用hit或strike,但不可以用attack或knock。attack表示“进攻,袭击”,多表示用武力进攻,k
27、nock是“敲打”的意思。 7解析:选A。考查动词短语辨析。句意:在他的妻子死后,男子就完全与世隔绝,再也不与其他人联系。cut off使隔绝,切断;set off 出发,引起;put off 推迟;pay off 偿清,(努力等)得到回报。8解析:选B。quiet意为无吵闹的“安静”;calm意为心理上“镇静的;沉着的”;silent意为“不出声的,沉默的”;still意为“寂静的,不动的”。故B项符合题意。9解析:选B。考查固定短语。句意:这种解决问题的新方法帮助弄清楚了我遇到的所有的麻烦。pay attention to take notice of注意; throw light on帮

29、查die短语的用法。句意:如果我们不采取措施保护这种植物,它将很快就灭绝。die out“灭绝,消失”,符合语境。die down“(风、雨等)减弱,平息”;die from/of“死于”。 13解析:选B。考查短语辨析。句意:你知道我现在的处境,那我就开门见山了。你能不能借给我一些钱?take it easy 别着急;come straight to the point 直截了当,开门见山;mind your own business 别管闲事;take it seriously 认真对待。由句意知,B项正确。14解析:选B。考查动词的用法。claim后跟不定式作宾语。根据句中提供的时间状语
30、“when the house caught fire”,应是“他正同家人看电视”,故使用不定式的进行时。15解析:选C。考查情景交际。此处表示高兴地听到好消息,所以用Thats something,意为“太好了,真了不起”。A项意为“没关系”;B项意为“你知道该怎么做”;D项意为“你做得不错”。.阅读理解A解题导语本文介绍了Whitney Johnson从十几岁就积极参加志愿者活动,毕业后帮助染上HIV的孩子,并取得了很大成就。1解析:选A。主旨大意题。 根据文章内容可知,Whitney Johnson从十几岁起至上大学期间就积极参加志愿者活动。国外留学毕业后回到非洲,筹款成立UBA,帮助染
31、上HIV的孩子,并取得了很大成就。因此正确选项为A。其余选项均为文中局部信息。2解析:选D。细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后“When she left,all she wanted to do was go back and change what she had seen.”和第三段开头“After graduation,Johnson began a fundraising effort that eventually collected enough money to found UBA”可知,她留学毕业后筹款成立了UBA机构。因此正确选项为D。3解析:选D。理解判断题。根据文章第一段“
32、As a preteen in New York,Whitney Johnson volunteered at soup kitchens and delivered clothes to the homeless.”可知Johnson从十几岁起就积极参加志愿者活动。因此正确选项为D。4解析:选B。细节理解题。根据文章第一段的信息:Johnson在非洲留学第一年时在南非最穷的地方之一Khayelitsha的一个孤儿院做志愿者工作,第二段“When she left,all she wanted to do was go back and change what she had seen.”第三
33、段“After graduation,Johnson began a fundraising effort that eventually collected enough money to found UBA.Now UBA is housed in a church big enough for offices and the children.”等信息可以推知UBA的地点就在南非。因此正确选项为B。B解题导语本文主要讲了有关音乐节的一些情况。5解析:选C。正误判断题。根据第一段的第二句“.and are often inclusive of other attractions.”可知,音
34、乐节不仅包括音乐表演。A项错在不一定“一年举办一次”;B项错在“A common music festival”(公共的音乐会);D项错在最早的不一定在中世纪。6解析:选D。细节理解题。在一、二段中不难找出A、B、C的根据,而D项译成“搬岩石比赛”,与原文的“rock festivals” (摇滚音乐节)不符,且也不是举办的目的。7解析:选C。细节判断题。从第三段可找出A、B、D的根据所在。在第三段第一句后半句提到:对各个年龄段和不同成就的业余音乐家有益,并非各种各样的音乐家,所以C项是偷换了概念。8解析:选A。细节理解题。从第三段最后一句可知:最重要的因素是参加者可以互相学习,即从竞争中互相受益,所以A项符合。其余三项本段也都提到,但不是“最重要的意义”。
