60、 Today we are going to visit the Tower of London.参考答案1.答案：1-3 ACD解析：1.事实细节题。由第一句可知这一课程的目的主要是针对想提高英语的高中生而举办的,也就是想学英语的人,故应选A项。2.事实细节题。由学费下面的One-week Courae (July 26August 1): $ 310”可知C项正确。3.事实细节题。由倒数第二句可知D项正确。2.答案：DCDA解析：1.D提示:细节理解题u根据文章的整体理解可知，在科学家 霍金的 My Brief History 而不是 A Brief History of Time 这本书
61、里介绍了霍金是如何锻炼成天才的，故答案为D项.,2.C提示:推理判断题。根据文章最后-段标题“Always look for a silver lining(even if you are seriously ill)”，并结合最后 一段的整体理解可推知.在困境中看到阳光的一面有利于人 们发展成为天才，故答案为C项。3.D提不:推理判断题。根据第二段“In his recently published autobiography My Brief History, Hawking offers four life lessons on how to become a genius. ” 可推知
62、，霍金的这本介 绍如何成为天才的书是一本自传体书，因此他卞要是通过自 己的经历来阐述自己的观点的，故答案为D项。4.A提示：推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“ Hawkings disease has slowly robbed him of the ability to walk”可知选A。3.答案：1.A 2.B 3.D 4.B解析：文章介绍英国的不同的名字,和它们具体所指的地方,虽然这些名字可以被用来代表这个国家,但是含义还是有差别的。小题1:细节题:从第一段的句子:Did anyone find the names of “Great Britain”, “the United King
63、dom”, “England” and “the British commonwealth” which have the same meaning?可知Great Britain 和Britain 都是英国的意思,选A小题2:细节题:从文章第二段的句子:The British isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well, which you can see on the map.可知British isles是指两个主岛和成千上万的小岛,选 B小题3:细节题:从第二段的句子:The Briti

65、 Great Britain,Great Britain大于Britain, 所以选D。小题4:推理题:从文章的内容:Great Britain是整个大不列颠,Scotland 是苏格兰,Edinburgh,是一个城市所以依据写信的地址格式,小的地址在前面,可知如果你想写信给在苏格兰的Edinburgh 的人,地址应该写成Edinburgh, Scotland ,Great Britain,选B4.答案：1.B; 2.B; 3.A; 4.C解析：1.考查词义猜测。根据第一段的内容和最后一段中的try heating up last nights leftovers可知,B项与leftovers
66、的意思最相近。2.考查推理判断。A项中的have breakfast in a hurry与文章第二段中的skip breakfast(不吃餐)意思相反,因此排除A项;C、D项未提及;作者在文中介绍了一些对于早餐的错误观点,故选B项。3.考查段落大意。综合最后一段内容可以得知其第一句话为该段主旨句,故选A项。4.考查主旨大意。根据文章第三、第四段的首句和义章末句的内容可得出本文针对的对象,即这篇文章主要是写给想减肥的人看的,故选C项。 5.答案：1.

68、应该了解到钱并不总是给他们使用的,这也就暗示了 它也可以给别人提供一些帮助,这与A项在意思上表达一致。5.B 根据下文的If they open a savings account.可知,如果他们开一个储蓄账户的话,也可以养成好的用钱习惯, 这与选项B内容一致。6.答案：1.C; 2.B; 3.C; 4.D; 5.A; 6.D; 7.A; 8.C; 9.B; 10.B; 11.A; 12.C; 13.D; 14.B; 15.C; 16.A; 17.D; 18.A; 19.D; 20.B解析：1.根据空前的We dont do this often可知,因为作者一家人的预算应该不多,所以不能经常

71、anony mously(匿名地) towards 可推知,作者递给女服务员15美元。11.作者给女服务员钱是想帮助那位母亲支付她的部分账单。put. .towards.意为以支付某事的部分费用。12.作者希望这笔钱至少够付一个孩子的饭钱。cover在此的含义为足以支付,够付。13.由语境可知,女服务员微笑着接受了作者的好意。14.根据下文中的I wanted it to be completely anonymous可知,为了避免被人发现,作者并没有在前台站很久。因为他不想让任何人,甚至他的家人知道发生了什么。15.参见上题解析。16.在作者剩余的用餐时间里,他尽可能不再直接给予那母子四人所
72、在的餐桌更多的关注。17.参见上题解析。18.结合上文作者的行为可推知,他之所以这样做是不想让那位母亲怀疑是他付的账。19.根据本段中的full of love及“instead of anger and sadness可推知,作者觉得生活在这个世界非常愉快,因为这里充满了爱和友善。20.参见上题解析。 7.答案：crowds; from; laying; the; were used; fairly; it; managed; introduction; successful解析：crowds本题考查名词。avoid避免”后可跟名词或动名词作宾语。因为此空前有形容词terrible修饰,故排
