158、 shape. After all，it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps(脊背) in the distance.On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldnt believe it there arent any whales along the coast here. The
159、storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.The little baby whaleactually as big as our boatwas obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩涡

With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under
161、water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, some-times rising from the wate

167、”可知“村民们虽然穷，但还是颇为满足的”。 57.【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“This seemed like money for nothing. ”句中“for nothing”是“免费的”意思，说明青蛙容易得到，并能赚到钱，村民才答应卖。58.【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“They had been doing an important job-eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging
168、the crops and spreading diseases. ”可以推断出庄稼收成不好，孩子生病与青蛙减少，害虫增多有关。59.【解析】选C。推理判断题。最后一句“These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning. ”现在夜晚的这些声音具有更深刻的意义。说明人们过度捕杀造成生态失衡，由此也影响了人类，因此，可以推断人与自然的和谐是重要。2、 【文章大意】本文讲述了一位法国游客见义勇为而备受赞扬的故事。50.【解析】选C。推断题。由文章的第一句话和第五段的第一句话都可以推出Duret在纽约是度假的。51. 【解析】选D。细节理
169、解题。由文中倒数第三段中的“An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a train with his girlfriend shortly after. ”，我们知道救护车来了之后，Duret和他的女朋友立刻去赶火车了，即很快离开了现场。既没有接受报社的采访，也没有坐救护车去医院，所以A项和C项属于无中生有。他没有向他女朋友要干衣服，而是旁观者递给他的，所以B项属于偷梁换柱。52. 【解析】选A。细节理解题。由文中第三段的最后一句话“
170、He handed the girl to her father ,David Anderson, who had dive in after him. ”，我们可知小女孩的父亲David Anderson随Duret后跳入河中去救小女孩。53.【解析】选B。细节理解题。由文章的第二段可知，救人这件事发生在上周六，星期二的每日新闻才说Julie Duret就是那个救人后马上。离开现场的人，所以说事隔几天后人们才知道了这位英雄的名字。3、 【文章大意】在母亲家的厨房里，总有一个放记事本和铅笔的木架。木架用了多年未换，记事本上记录着母亲一边做饭一边看孩子所产生的对解数学题的一瞬间的灵感，充分表现了

172、e stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these(我感到很吃惊这么多年了你还是用着同样的木架来放记事本和铅笔)”可知，作者原以为旧的木制架子该换了，也就是需要换一个更好的了。所以B项正确；A项 木架对全家人意义重大；C项 使她会想起孤独的童年；D项 应该传给下一代；都不符合文章内容。48【解析】选C。推理判断题。作者看到母亲充分利用任何可利用的时间来思考研究解决数学问题，根据最后一段中I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time t
173、o work(我觉得很难为情，我抱怨没有足够的时间玩)可知作者对童年未充分利用时间遗憾，所以C项正确。A、B、D项在文章中未提到。49.【解析】选A。推理判断题。从最后一段中reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician的“天才数学家”可以推断出母亲事业成功。根据最后一句those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years(意思是说那些符号未被改变地经历了50年)可知B项是错误的。根据最后一段中I complain abou

176、d-winning actress可知，她的第二本书并不像1995出版的自传那样，对自己获得的奖项却介绍得更少了。由此可推断Mary Moore在1995年之前获得过不少奖项。第二段第二句：In her career, Mary won many awards也有提示。所以答案选B。63. 【解析】选A。细节理解题。可在第三段第一句：her second book is less about life as anaward-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病)中找到答案。64. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第四段，

Years would pass before she realized she had to grow upagainand take control of her diabetes, not let it control her.”当Mary Moore听到改变她人生的消息时，她孩子气地选择了逃避，数年后，她才意识到她必须控制糖尿病而不是被它控制，由此可推断她当时失去了控制。65. 【解析】C

182、亲。69. 【解析】选D。推理判断题。从本段的“Our kids dont hold back because theyre afraid to fail. Theyre only afraid of failing us. ”可知孩子们并不是因为害怕失败而退缩，而是因为他们害怕让我们失望。又根据“Their fear -as mine was until my fathers letter-is of being a disappointment. ”可知作者直到读了父亲的信以后，他的这种“害怕”才结束。言外之意，父亲的信打消了作者担心让父母失望的想法。70. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据
183、最后一段的“I always knew my parents loved me. ”可知作者相信父母是爱他的。71. 【解析】选D。推理判断题。通读全文尤其是最后一段，作者提到家长应该给孩子成功的机会，要相信孩子会成功的，给孩子信心，这才是父母对孩子的更完整的，更真实的爱。所以作者写这篇文章的目的是在建议父母给孩子以鼓励。7、 【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文，描述一个孩子与父亲一起解救鲸鱼的童年记忆。51.【解析】选C。句意推断题，可根据文章主线来解答。此题的关键在于询问Im so glad I did的原因，而不是简单的句意猜测，审题时定要抓住because，否则，就会感到做题无所适从。52.
