78、。【45题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段“What in the world, Harold wonders, do they have to talk about?(哈罗德想知道,他们到底要谈什么?)”可知,Harold不能理解她们到底有多少要聊的内容。故选A项。【46题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend, and almost always it was a woman. More married men than women named t
79、heir wife/husband as a best friend, most trusted person, or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress(痛苦). “Most women,” says Rubin, “identified at least one, usually more, trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment, and they spoke openly about the importance of thes
80、e relationships in their lives.”(然而,四分之三的单身女性可以毫不犹豫地说出最好的朋友,而且几乎都是女性。与女性相比,更多的已婚男性将自己的妻子/丈夫视为最好的朋友、最信任的人,或者在情绪低落时可以求助的人。“大多数女性,”鲁宾说,“至少有一个,通常更多,值得信赖的朋友,她们可以在遇到麻烦的时候向他们倾诉,并且公开谈论这些关系在她们生活中的重要性。”)”可推断,已婚女性为了获得情感上的支持,更倾向于求助于女性朋友。故选D项。【47题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第五段“For the most part, Rubin says, interactions betwe
81、en men are emotionally controlled-a good fit with the social requirements of manly behavior.(在很大程度上,男人之间的交往在情感上是受控制的,这很符合“男子汉气概”的社会要求。)”和最后一段“While a womans closest female friend might be-the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasnt unusual to hear a man say he didnt know his friends
82、marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa.(虽然一个女人最亲密的女性朋友可能是第一个告诉她离开一段失败的婚姻,但听到一个男人说直到他朋友有一天晚上出现问他,他才知道他朋友的婚姻陷入了严重的麻烦,这也并不罕见。)”可推断,社会不接受一个男人抱怨婚姻问题。故选B项。【48题详解】细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Even when a man is said to be a best friend,” Rubin writes, “the two sh
83、are little about their innermost feelings.”(“即使一个男人被说成是最好的朋友,”鲁宾写道,“他们也很少分享内心深处的感受。”)”可知,男人总是把自己的感情藏在心里。故选A项。【49题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men.(为了研究这个叫做友谊的问题,心理学家莉莉安鲁宾花了两年时间采访了20
84、0多名男女。)”可知,鲁宾的实验围绕男性与女性的友谊为中心的。故选C项。DIf I could give todays young people three wishes, they would be: More hugs. More time outside in nature. More belief in their own power to change the world. While most people understand the importance of the first two wishes, the third one leaves some folks wonde
85、ring why young peoples belief in their own power is so essential.Lets start with the idea that all of us-especially young people-need heroes. We need them to be our guides on the difficult trail(足迹)we call life and to show us just how far we can go. And we need heroes today more than ever. Our moder
86、n society is terribly confused about the difference between a celebrity and a hero. And the difference: is vital. A celebrity is all about fame(名望)-temporary, superficial fame, usually for qualities that are easy to see: a pretty face, a great dance move. A hero,by contrast, is about character-quali
87、ties under the surface that arent visible until they take action.Heroes are all around us. They truly hold our world together, through their unselfish devotion to helping others, teaching children, and protecting the environment. They dont want fame, or glory; they just want to help. In so many ways
88、, these unsung heroes pilot the boat in which all of us sail.Yet, young people hear a lot more about celebrities than about heroes in the media. The hidden message they get from all this is that their self-worth comes from what they buy-which shoes, which cell phone-not who they are down inside. Wha
89、t gets lost in this? Young peoples sense of their own potential for heroic qualities-their own power to make a positive difference in the world. Truth is, there is a potential hero, a future difference maker, in every young person. Each of them, from whatever background, is a positive force who can
90、do something. All it takes for that to be true is belief.How do we help young people believe in their own power? The best way is simply to share examples, of other young people who have made a difference.Ryan, age 11, has worked tirelessly to raise money to provide clean drinking water to African vi
91、llages. When he first heard about the plight(困苦)of African children who died from impure water, Ryan was only six years old. In the next five years, he raised over $500,000-enough to build over 70 water wells.Barbara, age 17, grew up on a farm in Texas. When she realized that local farmers were pour

97、 By contrasting the achievements made by different young people.C. By giving examples of young people who show the qualities of a hero.D.

98、es are reported too much in the media.C. Adults should become role models for young people.D. Young people should believe in their ability to make a difference.【答案】50. B 51. D 52. A 53. D 54. C 55. D【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了作者认为当今年轻人拥有的三大愿望:更多的拥抱,更多的户外时间,更多的相信自己改变世界的力量。虽然大多数人都明白前两个愿望的重要性,但第三个愿望却让一些人疑惑
99、为什么这是如此重要。【50题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段第四句“Our modern society is terribly confused about the difference between a celebrity and a hero.”(我们现代社会对名人和英雄之间的区别非常困惑。)可知,作者引出了“名人和英雄的区别”,并在下文进行区分,整段文章其实就在讨论名人和英雄之间的区别。故选B项。【51题详解】词义猜测题。根据题干中提示词“on top of.face”(在.之上,表面)可知,superficial的意思是“表面的,浅显的”,即“没有深度的”,和without dep
100、th同义。故选D项。【52题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段“They truly hold our world together, through their unselfish devotion to helping others, teaching children protecting the environment.They dont want fame, or glory; they just want to help. In so many ways, these unsung heroes pilot the boat in which all of us sail.”(英雄让
101、我们的世界团结在一起,他们无私的奉献,帮助别人,教育孩子,保护环境。他们不要名誉,或者荣耀。他们只是想帮忙。在很多方面,这些无名英雄引领着我们所有人航行)可知,英雄在这个世界上发挥着积极着作用,推动着世界积极的转动。故选A项。【53题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第四段中句子“What gets lost in this? Young peoples sense of their own potential for heroic qualities-their own power to make a positive difference in the world.”(在这里面迷失了什么? 年轻人
102、对自己的英雄潜质的认识他们自己对世界产生积极影响的能力。)可知,年轻人在自我能力上产生了迷失,他们对自己的力量没有信心。故选D项。【54题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第五段中句子“How do we help young people believe in their own power? The best way is simply to share examples ,of other young people who have made a difference.”(我们如何帮助年轻人相信自己的力量?最好的方法就是分享其他年轻人做出改变的例子。)可知,作者提出自己的观点后,在接下来的两段中
103、,列举Ryan和Barbara两位年轻人的事例来说明年轻人具有成为英雄的潜力。即,作者是用举例的方式来进一步阐述自己观点。故选C项。【55题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第一段最后一句“.why young peoples belief in their own power is so essential.”(.为什么年轻人相信自己的力量是如此重要。)和最后一段最后一句“These are but a few examples of young people who have discovered that they can build on their own energy to do some
104、thing great.”(这些只是年轻人的几个例子,他们已经发现他们可以依靠自己的力量去做一些伟大的事情。)可知,作者以 “相信自己的力量”点题,段中例举了几个通过自己的力量做出改变的例子,结尾又以“自己的力量”与首段呼应,可知,整篇文章讲的是年轻人应该相信自己有能力做出改变。故选D项。【点睛】第卷第三部分:写作第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。My name is Clara.
