39、ke a free checklist for troublemakers and it endangers children”可知,父母很担心孩子的网上安全的问题。3答案与解析:A推理判断题。根据第五段第一句“Parents on the other hand are seriously concerned about the security problems of MySpace.”以及最后一段内容可知,在这个网站上有很多的个人信息,这对孩子来说是一个很大的安全隐患,所以父母们非常关注这个话题。4答案与解析:B主旨大意题。根据文章第一段内容本文主要讨论的是一个社交网站MySpace,以及
40、这个网站引起父母担心的问题。故B正确。B【语篇解读】本文属于记叙文。作者通过让学生拼装玩具,发现并鼓励学生的创造性和想象力。5答案与解析:A推理判断题。根据文章第二段可知,当作者把拼装式玩具放在学生面前的时候,有些学生犹豫着,在等着看别人如何行动,有一些学生查看了使用说明并根据提供的飞机模型做出了一些东西。而另外一些学生则根据自己的想象力做出了一些东西。通过观察作者对不同学生的性格有了不同的理解,所以A项正确。6答案与解析:D推理判断题。由文章第三段第一、二句“Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his f
41、ree time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home.”可知,这个男孩在空闲时间拼装这些玩具,而且他的作品堆满了艺术教室的一个架子,家中卧室里也有很多。由此可知,他是个富有想象力和创造力的学生。7答案与解析:B词义猜测题。根据“I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking.”可知,作者冒着失去那些有不同思维方式的学生的危险。这说明作者的
42、教育方式也有不足之处。由此可知该词的意思是“缺点”。8答案与解析:A推理判断题。根据文章最后部分的对话内容可知,作者鼓励孩子们说出最有趣的、有创造性和想象力的梦,并鼓励他们在白天的课堂上也要做有想象力的梦。作者这样做的目的是让他们看到自己的创造力和想象力。C【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了出版专家迈克尔诺里斯的一项调查结果:现在的孩子读书越来越少,并不能完全归咎于电子产品;一些父母对孩子阅读书目的干涉阻止了他们养成阅读习惯。9答案与解析:C细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知,父母过分干涉孩子读什么书,而这使孩子们失去了兴趣,即父母对孩子书目的选择的影响阻止了孩子养成阅读习惯。故选C项。10答案
43、与解析:D细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The results of a number of surveys Norris has carried out with hundreds of American booksellers over the past year.”可知,这项研究是诺里斯实施的。故选D项。11答案与解析:B细节理解题。根据第五段中的“to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller, while parents stand well back”可知,父母应该让孩子单独与书商谈谈。故选B项。1
44、2答案与解析:A推理判断题。根据最后一段中诺里斯说:“在我很小的时候,我父亲让我读了汤姆克兰西的猎杀红色十月。从那以后,我再也没有读过克兰西的书。”可知,诺里斯认为他的父亲让他读了不合适的书。故选A项。.七选五【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了如何在一个新的学校交朋友。1答案与解析:B由空格前面的内容可知在一所新学校开始可能很困难。一切和你原来的学校都不一样,你甚至不知道到哪里去上你自己的课。由此可知,交新朋友也可能是困难的。B项关键词为too。2答案与解析:D根据本段标题句“Be yourself. (做你自己)”及空后句“If some people dont accept you, t
45、heyre not the kind of friend you need. (如果有些人不接受你,他们就不是你需要的那种朋友)”可知,D项(永远不要改变你自己来试着融入其中)符合上下文文意。3答案与解析:A根据位置可知本空是段落标题句,且根据前后段的段落标题句可知本空应用短小精悍的祈使句。本段第一句“Remember to be nice to the people you meet at your new school.”中nice与A项中的friendly同义。4答案与解析:E由空格前面内容讲要抬起头,与他人目光接触,及空格后面内容讲做自我介绍,告诉他们你的名字和你来自哪里可知E项(如果
46、你看见你认识的人,要微笑或说一声“嗨”)符合上下文文意。5答案与解析:F上句句意:你喜欢别人叫你的名字,其他人也是这样。下句句意:另外,如果他们有一个昵称,请用亲切的方式叫他们。故F项(如果你每次一开始就先说“嘿”,人们可能会生气的)符合上下文文意。.语法填空【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者的数学老师Maam不仅教书好而且非常关心学生,成为学生们的良师益友。1答案与解析:teachers考查名词复数。根据空前的many可知,应用可数名词teacher的复数形式。2答案与解析:best考查副词最高级。句意:每一门学科都有一个不同的老师,但我最喜欢我的数学老师。根据句意可知,应用副词wel
47、l的最高级best修饰动词like。3答案与解析:joined考查动词的时态。根据时间状语last term可知,本句应用一般过去时。4答案与解析:interesting考查形容词。句意:她非常善良,她的教学方法非常简单有趣以至于我们都能理解她教的内容以及如何做。根据句意可知,本空应用形容词interesting作表语。5答案与解析:that考查定语从句。本空引导定语从句,修饰不定代词everything,在从句中作主语,故本空应用关系代词that。6答案与解析:importantly考查副词。本空应用副词importantly作状语,修饰整个句子。7答案与解析:with考查介词。help sb. with sth.意为“帮助某人某事”,故本空应用介词with。8答案与解析:to help考查不定式。此处应用动词不定式作目的状语,故填to help。9答案与解析:us考查代词。此处作介词of的宾语,故应用we的宾格us。10答案与解析:a考查不定冠词。句意:对我来说,Maam不仅是一位好老师,还是我们最好的朋友。不定冠词a/an表示泛指,定冠词the表示特指,本句中使用不定冠词a泛指一位好老师。故填a。
