19、nd. Then he set up his business as a cycle repairer.(Boris在城镇周围转了好多圈,最后找到了一块合适的荒地。然后他开始经营自行车修理的生意)”可知,Boris的职业生涯开始于修理自行车。故选C。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段中“But at long last, he managed to find an empty shop on a new estate where there were plenty of customers but no competition.(但是最后,他在一个新土地上找到了一家闲置的商店,那里有很多顾客,
20、但没有竞争)”可推知,Boris最终在一个新的土地上选择了一家闲置的商店,因为那里有很好的机会。故选D。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Boris and his assistant taught themselves how to repair scooters and motorcycles. Slowly but surely the profits increased and the business developed. At last Boris had managed to open the money-locker and found bank notes and gol
21、d coins inside.( Boris和他的助手自学如何修理小型摩托车和摩托车。利润缓慢而稳定地增长了,业务也发展了。最后,Boris终于打开了钱柜,发现里面有钞票和金币)”可推知,Boris事业上获得了成功。故选B。【7题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段“Why dont you start your own business?” one of his uncles told him. “The world is a money-locker. Youd better find a way of opening it.”(“你为什么不自己创业呢?”他的一个叔叔告诉他。“世界是一个钱柜。你最
22、好想个办法把它打开。”)”结合本文讲述的是Boris非常努力,却一直无法找到合适的工作,在叔叔的建议和鼓励下,自主创业,并时刻铭记叔叔的话“世界就是一个钱柜,你最好找到打开它的方法”。最后Boris取得成功。这个故事告诉我们,人生就是一连串的战斗,也就意味着一连串的失败,没人能常胜不败,虽然有时我们会屡战屡败,但只有屡战屡败的勇士才能找到钱柜的钥匙,才能获得你想要的一切。所以Boris的故事是围绕着标题“世界就是一个钱柜”而展开。故B选项“世界就是一个钱柜”是短文最佳标题。故选B。CIf you visit Uluwatu temple in Bali, be cautious.

23、ng-tailed temple monkeys there are well-known thieves.

D 11. D【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章作者援引研究发现,成年猴的偷窃行为和与受害者讨价还价已获得的高回报的行为是后天习得的。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一段“But Jean-Baptiste
32、 Leca of the University of Lethbridge, in Canada, wondered whether these monkeys are cleverer still. Sometimes, they do not accept the first offer and hold out for more. He therefore asked himself whether they are able to assess how valuable an object is to its owner, and factor that into their nego
33、tiations.(但是加拿大Lethbridge大学的Jean-Baptiste Leca怀疑这些猴子是否更聪明。有时,它们不接受第一个报价而坚持要更多。因此,他问自己,它们是否能够评估一件物品对其拥有者的价值,并将这一因素纳入谈判)”可知,Leca研究的目的是想了解猴子是否学会了评估物品对其拥有者的价值从而提出更多的要求。故选D项。【9题详解】词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“Since a long time ago, they have made a living by robbing visitors of their possessions and then holding those
34、objects until a ransom in the form of food is paid.(从很久以前开始,它们就以抢劫访客的财产为生,然后拿着这些物品直到以食物的形式的ransom)”可知,提问题ransom前提及“猴子们以抢劫游客的财产为生”。因此可推断,此处表示猴子在抢到游客的东西后,并以此作为勒索的条件,直到游客以给予食物为代价拿回东西为止。因此,此处的ransom应表示“酬金,奖励”。故选B项。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“To confirm which steal able objects are most valued by people, they
35、 divided them into six classes: empty containers, such as phone cases and plastic bottles; accessories (搭配物) such as hairpins and key rings; hats and shoes; spectacles and sunglasses; and electronics and wallets.

36、of property belonging to different classes, and thus classified objects into low value, medium value and high value.(为了确定人们最看重的失窃物品是什么,他们将这些物品分为六类:空容器,如手机壳和塑料瓶;发夹、钥匙圈等配件;帽子和鞋子;眼镜和太阳镜;电子产品和钱包。然后,他们观察受害者为了归还属于不同类别的财产而与猴子讨价还价的频率,从而将物品分为低价值、中价值和高价值)”可知,研究者通过讨价还价的频率来分类物品的价值。故选D项。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“They
37、found that monkeys do, indeed, have a complicated sense of what they are doing at least, adults and sub-adults do. These animals have a preference for stealing high-value items, and will often hold out either for more rewards, or for better ones, if they are in possession of such items. But this is
38、something that they have to learn how to do as they grow up. Young monkeys make no such distinctions, and sub-adults are less good at doing so than adults.(他们发现,猴子确实对自己在做什么有复杂的认识。至少,成年猴和亚成年猴都可以。这些动物偏爱偷走高价值的物品,如果拥有这些物品,它们往往会争取更多的奖励或更好的奖励。但这是它们长大后必须学习的方法。幼猴没有这种区别,次成年猴则不如成年猴)”可知,猴子的偷窃行为是后天习得的技能。因为幼猴不会这
39、种偷窃行为,而次成年候的偷窃能力不如成年候。故选D项。第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Theres no guaranteed roadmap to success in study._12_The following tips are a great place to start.Get enough sleep_13_Your ability to remember can drop by as much as 40 percent if you havent had adequate s

46、【12题详解】根据上文“Theres no guaranteed roadmap to success in study.(在学习中没有保证成功的路线图)”结合后文主要是一些关于学习习惯和方法的建议,故F选项“然而,改变你的学习习惯和调整你的方法,你会有很大的不同”符合语境,故选F。【13题详解】根据后文“Your ability to remember can drop by as much as 40 percent if you havent had adequate sleep. Aim to get adequate sleep as many nights as possible,
47、 and try to keep the same sleep schedule every night, even on weekends.(如果你没有充足的睡眠,你的记忆力会下降40%。尽量多睡几个晚上,每天晚上保持相同的睡眠时间,即使是周末)”可知,本段主要是在强调睡眠的重要性,C选项中sleep对应后文中sleep。故C选项“睡眠的重要性怎么强调都不过分”符合语境,故选C。【14题详解】根据后文“There is plenty of research indicating benefits for both nighttime studying and early morning st
48、udying, so you shouldnt feel pressured to maintain an uncomfortable schedule. As long as you are getting enough sleep and keeping up with your commitments, your schedule is up to you.(有大量的研究表明,夜间学习和清晨学习都有好处,所以你不必为保持一个不舒服的时间表而感到压力。只要你有足够的睡眠,遵守你的承诺,你的时间表是你自己决定的)”可知,后文提到不必保持一个不舒服的时间表,即学习时间表因人而异,并不固定,G选
49、项中study schedule对应后文中schedule。故G选项“说到睡眠计划,需要注意的是,没有放之四海而均准的学习计划”符合语境,故选G。【15题详解】根据上文“The Pomodoro Technique is a focusing method that relies on short bursts of intense work and plenty of breaks.
