10、lumbia border and are inside two huge national parks Banff to the south and Jasper to the north. Banff was Canadas first wildlife reserve and these days the town of Banff is the most popular tourist destination in the country. But Jasper National Park is larger, wilder, and less well-explored. Betwe
11、en the parks of Banff and Jasper is the Columbia Icefield, a huge bowl of ice made up of about thirty glaciers. If you dont like ice, the Rockies offer wildlife walks, swimming, camping, hiking, canoeing, mountain climbing, and plenty of places to stay. Accommodation costs(住宿费)are usually lower at t
12、he Jasper end of this superb mountain playground.LunenburgLunenburg is south from Halifax, along a foggy coast of rocky seas, fishing villages, and historic towns. It is a beautiful little shipbuilding town and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Fishing has always been big in Lunenburg: most of Atlantic
13、Canadas deep-sea fishing boats leave from here, and North Americas biggest fish-processing factory is located in the town. Lunenburg still has many wooden buildings and as a result feels like an 18th century British colonial(殖民时期的)town. You can visit the towns Fisheries Museum or just wander around,
14、 looking at the wooden houses in the old streets and of course have a dinner of seafood.ChurchillOne of the few places in the north that is “easy” to get to, Churchill is a 1.5-day train journey from Winnipeg. Churchill is a major port, but eco-tourism is becoming more and more important. Although i
15、t is freezing, many visitors come to see the polar bears, whales, Arctic foxes, and if they are lucky, the Northern Lights. Churchill calls itself the “Polar Bear Capital of the World”, and for a good reason: the town sits right in the middle of the animals migration route, and the cute but deadly w

18、ntains线路的介绍中“Banff was Canadas first wildlife reserve可知,”Banff是加拿大第一个野生动物保护区。故选A项。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据Lunenburg线路的介绍中“North Americas biggest fish-processing factory is located in the town.”可知,Lunenburg小镇有北美最大的鱼类加工厂。故选D项。【3题详解】推理判断题。根据Churchill线路的介绍中“Churchill calls itself the “Polar Bear Capital of the Wo
19、rld”,和“Tours to see the bears from September to November are the most popular attraction.”(Churchill自称为“世界北极熊之都”,“9月至11月的观熊旅游是最受欢迎的景点。)”由此判断出大多数游客到Churchill是为了看北极熊。故选B项。BIt was a day Id been waiting for. I had seen a few lift-offs(升空)on vision before, but this one was special. It was Apollo 11. The
20、astronauts were headed for the Moon, just to orbit, as Apollo 8 and Apollo 10 had done a few months earlier. This time, people would actually walk on it!I had a hard time getting through the next three days until Apollo 11 reached the Moon. I was glued to the television. Finally, Sunday morning arri
21、ved. After eating dinner, my family gathered in the living room. Our new television offered the best picture of the upcoming events. Luckily, I had read many books on space flight. I was familiar with the technical phrases, being discussed between Mission Control Center and the astronauts.,Then, we
22、heard the countdown to the undocking(出舱)of the Eagle, the Lunar Module (LM), from the Columbia, the Command and Service Module. None of us paid much attention to the background chatter. If we had, we would have realized that the descent(降落)was not going well. A loud master alarm kept sounding inside
23、 the LM. If it continued, the astronauts would have to stop the descent. But in our excitement, we didnt realize what was happening. Then we saw that the astronauts had reached the Moon. We all gave a loud cheer when Armstrong said his famous words as the LM touched down: Houston, Tranquility Base h
24、ere. The Eagle has landed.Even though I was only eight years old, I sensed the importance of that moment. Looking back at it, I feel a little sad that there has been nothing quite like that since. But we have our sight set on Mars now. To get to Mars, we will need to visit the Moon again. That excit
25、es me. Id love to see another moonwalk. I hope that kids will watch, as I did, the images(影像)of humans on another planet. Perhaps the next moonwalkers will change the lives of those viewers, as Armstrong and Aldrin changed my life 50 years ago.4. What can we learn about the author when he was young?
26、A. He liked watching TVB. He was crazy about reading.C. He wanted to be an astronaut.D. He was interested in space flight.5. Why did the author ignore the background chatter?A. He didnt know the technical phrases.B. He paid his attention to the alarm.C. He was too excited.D. He was too young.6. What
27、 would be the best title for the text?A. A magical moment.B. A happy childhood.C. A return to the Moon.D. A goal of visiting Mars.【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A【解析】【分析】本文是记叙文,讲述了作者8岁时观看阿波罗11号成功升入太空、宇航员到达月球的这一激动人心的时刻。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段首句“It was a day Id been waiting for.” 以及第二段中“I had read many books on space fli
28、ght.”,作者一直在等待阿波罗11号升空的这一天。在此之前作者还看过很多关于太空飞行的书。由此可以推断,作者对太空飞行很感兴趣。故选D项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“But in our excitement, we didnt realize what was happening.”,在观看电视直播时,因为处于兴奋中,谁也没有注意到那些嘈杂的背景声,没有意识到降落并不是很顺利。故选C项。【6题详解】主旨大意题。文章叙述了作者小时候观看阿波罗11号成功升入太空、宇航员到达月球的经历。根据文章最后一段首句“Even though I was only eight years old,
29、 I sensed the importance of that moment.”,作者感觉到了那一刻的重要性;再根据文章最后一句“as Armstrong and Aldrin changed my life 50 years ago.”,作者认为50年前阿姆斯特朗和奥尔德林登上月球的这一刻改变了他的生活。因此文章标题应该是“一个神奇的时刻”。故选A项。CCooperation at work is generally seen as a good thing. The latest survey by the Financial Times of what employers want f
30、rom MBA graduates found that the ability to work with a wide variety of people was what managers wanted most. But managers always have to balance the benefits of teamwork, which help ensure that everyone is working towards the same goal, with the dangers of “groupthink” when critics are reluctant to
31、 point out a plans drawbacks for fear of being kept out of the group. The disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961 was a classic case of groupthink. Skeptics were reluctant to challenge John F. Kennedy, the newly elected American president.Modern communication methods mean that cooperation is
32、 more frequent. Workers are constantly in touch with each other via e-mail messaging groups or mobile calls. But does that improve, or lower performance? A new study by three American academics, tried to answer this question. They set a logical problem (designing the shortest route for a travelling
33、salesman visiting various cities). Three groups were involved: one where subjects acted independently; another where they saw the solutions posted by team members at every stage; and a third where they were kept informed of each others views only intermittently.The survey found that members of the i
34、ndividualist group reached the premier solution more often than the constant cooperators but had a poorer average result. The intermittent cooperators found the right result as often as the individualists, and got a better average solution. When it comes to ideal generation, giving people a bit of s
35、pace to a solution seems to be a good idea. Occasional cooperation can be a big help: most people have benefited from a colleagues brainwave or (just as often) wise advice to avoid a particular course of action.Further clues come from a book, Superminds, by Thomas Malone of the Massachusetts Institu
36、te of Technology. He says that three factors determine the collective intelligence of cooperating groups: social intelligence (how good people were at rating the emotional states of others); the extent to which members took part equally in conversation (the more equal, the better); and the cooperati
37、on of women in the group (the higher, the better). Groups ranked highly in these areas cooperated far better than others.In short, cooperation may be a useful tool but it doesnt work in every situation.7. The author cites the example of The Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in paragraph 1 to _.A. prove t
38、hat team players are skilled at communicationB. show that teamwork cannot always be beneficialC. prove that critics are unwilling to challenge anybodyD. show the danger of groupthink is not very serious8. The underlined phrase “the intermittent cooperators” in paragraph 3 refers to _.A. those who do
39、 not cooperate but reach the best solutionB. those who are seldom informed of others viewsC. those who cooperate with others occasionallyD. the constant cooperators with a poor average result9. Which of the following factors makes a team cooperate better?A. Group members cooperating all the time.B.
40、Group members in a good emotional state.C. Equal distribution of men and women.D. Equal participation in the communication.10. Which can be the best title of the passage?A. When Teamwork WorksB. What Teamwork Is AboutC. How Teamwork OperatesD. A Useful Tool: Cooperation【答案】7. B 8. C 9. D 10. A【解析】【分
41、析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了团队合作是一种有用的工具,但并非在所有情况下都有用。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But managers always have to balance the benefits of teamwork, which help ensure that everyone is working towards the same goal, with the dangers of “groupthink” when critics are reluctant to point out a plans drawbacks for fear of being kep
42、t out of the group. The disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961 was a classic case of groupthink.”可知,经理们总是在团队合作的好处和群体思维的危险之间取得平衡,1961年灾难性的猪湾入侵古巴就是群体思维的危险性的经典案例,作者举这个例子就是为了证明团队合作不总是有益的,故B项正确。【8题详解】词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“The survey found that members of the individualist group reached the premier solut
43、ion more often than the constant cooperators but had a poorer average result.”可知,调查发现个人主义小组的成员比经常合作的小组成员更容易达成首要解决方案,此处是说偶尔性的合作者与个人主义者一样经常能找到正确的结果,并得到更好的平衡解,由此可知画线词词义为“偶尔合作的人”,故C项正确。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“the extent to which members took part equally in conversation (the more equal, the better)”可知,平等地参
44、与交流能够让团队合作得更好,故D项正确。【10题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章内容,特别是最后一段中的“In short, cooperation may be a useful tool but it doesnt work in every situation.”可知,团队合作并非在所有情况下都有用,故A项正确。【点睛】主旨大意题的难度较大,需要紧紧地抓住文章的主题句,如果文章第一段没有明显的主题句,那么最后一段带有总结性的句子就是主题句,例如本篇第4题,最后一段中的“In short”是明显的总结性的词语,根据“In short, cooperation may be a useful to
45、ol but it doesnt work in every situation.”可知,本文介绍了团队合作是一种有用的工具,但并非在所有情况下都有用。 DIt is that time of the year again.

46、ing to deal with the Oxbridge stress in the only way I know: caffeine hits and reclusion(遁生活) Whether you love or hate Oxbridge, the fact that these two universities provide unique learning environments is something of a double-edged sword. On the one hand, students have access to some of the best e

48、ors, their director of studies or even from themselves. The drive towards achievement is either the key to success or to possible serious personal issues, as Mark Phippen, head of the University of Cambridges Counseling Service said, There are plenty of perfectionists in Cambridge, but it can work t
49、wo ways: it can push them to accomplish and to achieve, or it can get out of hand, disabling them.

As everyone seems to be coping, they must also pre

The only thing students have: tutors and supervisors regularly encourage students to avoid extracurricular activities, urging them to focus on their studies to such an extent that many find it hard to handle it. One current Cambridge tutor has been known for checking up on the acti

It shouldnt be an accepted response in one of the worlds best universities.
55、 Their responses only worsened any feelings I had concerning my final year. Phippen said, At this point the exams seem like the most important thing in the world. However, two years down the line youll realize that the exams you did at university arent very important at all, as what then becomes mor
56、e important is what you have done within those two years afterwards. Finalist exams can become depressing for students studying at any university.

62、e that comes with this can prove damaging to them and cant be swept under the carpet for they have to face it eventually.可知,一方面学生可以接触到世界上一些最好的教育;另一方面,来自这种情况的压力被证明对他们是有伤害的,不能be swept under the carpet,因为他们最终不得不面对它。结合句意,尤其是they have to face it eventually可推测划线部分的意思是“被掩盖”。A. be covered up(被掩盖)符合以上说法,故选A项
63、。【12题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段的as Mark Phippen, head of the University of Cambridges Counseling Service said, There are plenty of perfectionists in Cambridge, but it can work two ways: it can push them to accomplish and to achieve, or it can get out of hand, disabling them. (正如剑桥大学咨询服务的负责人Mark Phippen所说,剑桥有很多完

65、an extent that many find it hard to handle it.(学生唯一拥有的东西:教师和导师经常鼓励学生避免课外活动,敦促他们集中精力学习,以至于很多人觉得难以应对)可知,部分教师和导师对学生要求过分严格,甚至鼓励他们不参加课外活动,只专注于学习。B. Some tutors and supervisors push their students too hard.(部分教师和导师对学生要求过分严格)符合以上说法,故选B项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段的a campaign to handle complaints about supervisors a

67、ane said.(这是一项针对导师缺乏能力提供适当精神支持的投诉活动。一个参加期末考试的学生Jane说:“当我告诉导师我的焦虑问题,因此我担心周围的工作时,她说,一旦我完成了工作就可能就没那么焦虑了。”)可推测,Jane和导师谈话的目的是想从导师那儿得到更好的精神方面的支持,但很显然导师之关心学习。B. had expected better spiritual guidance from her tutors(本期待从导师那儿得到精神方面的指导)符合以上推测,故B选项。【15题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其第一段的Up and down the country, thousan
