A simila

10、r product in the grocery store costs 59 cents more per can.”（基本上是一种来自Chicken of the Sea的产品，5盎司罐装的Van Camp的大块白色长鳍金枪鱼在Dollar Tree的售价为1美元/罐。杂货店的一种类似的产品每罐贵59美分。），可知杂货店买一罐类似的金枪鱼大概要$1.59（1美元+59美分）。故选C项。【2题详解】细节理解题。由倒数第二段的“For storing food, childrens supplies, or whatever your household needs may be, there

11、s nothing better than plastic storage containers.”（对于储存食物，儿童用品，或任何你的家庭需要，没有什么比塑料容器更好的了。），可知塑料容器最适合储存食物。故选D项。【3题详解】细节理解题。由第二段“Essentially a product from Chicken of the Sea, 5-ounce cans of Van Camps Chunk White Albacore Tuna in Water are available for $1 per can at Dollar Tree.

13、iu softgels is only $11.99.

14、unt packs for $1. A three-count of similar socks at Albertsons will cost $6.59 and theres much less variety.”（DollarTree有很多男式、女式和儿童短袜可供选择。女式迷你圆领短袜分三种，每包1美元。在Albertson的三个类似的袜子计数将花费6.59美元，品种叶少得多。），可知Dollar Tree买袜子划算，Albertson买袜子不划算；因此在Trader Joes和Dollar Tree能买到便宜点的东西。故选B项。BA shop owner placed a sign a

23、狗，他决定以全价把它买下，虽然老板愿意免费赠送。小男孩认为残疾的狗有着与正常狗一样的价值和尊严，我们不能歧视它们，这是小男孩带给我们的心灵反思。【4题详解】推理判断题。由第三段“The store owner replied, “Anywhere from $30 to $50.”（店主回答说：“从30美元到50美元不等。”）和第七段中的“That little dog is worth every bit as much as all the other dogs and Ill pay full price.”（那只小狗和其他狗一样值钱，我要付全价。）可知狗至少30美元起，小男孩要全价买，

24、可推断出小男孩决定至少付给主人30美元买这条跛脚的狗。故选C项。【5题详解】细节理解题。由最后一段中的“To his surprise, the little boy reached down and rolled up his pant leg to reveal a badly twisted, crippled left leg supported by a big metal brace.”（令他吃惊的是，小男孩伸手卷起裤腿，露出一条严重扭曲、残废的左腿，腿上有一个大金属支架。）可知店主感到惊讶是因为那个男孩也有残疾。故选A项。【6题详解】词句猜测题。由倒数第二段中的“The shop

He is never going to be able to run and play with you like the other puppies.”（店主countered：“你真的不要买这只小狗。它再也不能像其他小狗那样和你一起奔跑和玩耍了。”）可知店主辩解让小男孩不要买这只残疾的小狗，还说明了不买它的理由，可推断出countered在此处意为“argue（争辩、说理）”。故选B项。【7题详解】主旨大意题。由全文语境和最后一段中的“He looked up

26、at the shop owner and softly replied, “Well, I dont run so well myself, and the little puppy will need someone who understands!”（他抬头看了看店主，轻轻地回答说：“嗯，我自己跑得不太好，小狗需要一个能理解它的人！”）可知身有残疾的小男孩看到了一只与他同病相怜的小狗，他决定以全价把它买下，虽然老板愿意免费赠送。小男孩认为残疾的狗有着与正常狗一样的价值和尊严，我们不能歧视它们，小狗需要一个能理解它的人，可知本文主要讲的是“理解”。故选D项。CTristan da Cunh

67、了鸽子，彩虹和橄榄枝三种事物作为和平象征的历史和原因。【16题详解】第一段“Think about how we greet people.（想想我们是如何问候别人的。）”句中的how提示下文将在问候方式方面进行展开叙述。空后的“we greet people by shaking hands or with another gesture（我们通过握手或其他手势来问候别人）”是关于手势或动作的问候方式；“And there are certain symbols（有一些特定的符号）”是关于特定符号的问候方式，选项C是关于语言的问候方式，与上下文衔接紧密。故选C项。【17题详解】第二段中“In

68、 ancient Greek（在古希腊）”和“In ancient Japan（在古代日本）”表明鸽子在古代是如何代表和平的，而选项A中的“modern（现代的）”与前文的ancient相呼应，完整讲述了鸽子在古代和现代历史上是如何被用来代表和平的。故选A项。【18题详解】选项D中的“Nowadays（现在）”与第三段中的“In Scandinavian mythology（在北欧神话中）”和“In Chinese tradition（在中国的传统中）”相呼应，讲述在现代人们是如何利用彩虹这个标志的。且D项中的“for peace（为了和平）”也与全文的和平主题一致。故选D项。【19题详解】选

69、项B描述橄榄树的用途，与第四段小标题“The olive branch（橄榄枝）”是相符的，且空后“the goddess Athene gave the olive tree to the people of Athens,（雅典娜女神将橄榄树送给雅典人，）”，句中的the olive tree也暗示，前文应对橄榄树有所铺垫。故选B项。【20题详解】第二段和第三段都是从历史和原因两方面对鸽子和彩虹的和平意义进行讲述，而第四段中所讲述的雅典娜将橄榄树送给雅典这个神话与橄榄枝的和平意义并无关联，又根据空后的“Whatever the history（无论历史是什么）”可知，前文对橄榄枝用作和平象

70、征的历史并没有做出明确的说明，选项G中“但没有人确切知道它是何时或为何开始象征和平的。”符合题意，选项中的it指代前文的the olive tree。故选G项。第二部分 英语知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Many western cultures measure their days with the solar calendar.
