47、to global warming. (当咖啡渣进入垃圾填埋场时，会向大气中释放温室气体，导致全球变暖。)”可知，咖啡垃圾导致的污染以及全球变暖问题已经到了刻不容缓的地步，必须要采取措施来解决这个问题。故选C项。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“They are finally processed into the fuel. Coffee Log. (它们最终被加工成燃料，咖啡原木。)”以及第四段“Coffee is highly calorific and lends itself to being a really fantastic fuel.(咖啡的热量很高，它本身就是一种非常棒

58、ining doesnt always have a negative impact.（抱怨并不总是有负面影响。）”表明抱怨并不一定全是坏处，再根据后面however，可以确定，空格处应选择抱怨的好处。所以选择项F“Sometimes a complaint changes an unfavorable situation into a more desirable one.(有时抱怨会把不利的情况变成更理想的情况。)”符合上下文语境。故选F。【17题详解】空格在段落末尾，仔细看我们会发现前面一句“If your neighbor is complaining about the phone
59、company, tell her about an unexpected call you received from an old friend.（如果你的邻居在抱怨电话公司，告诉她你接到一个老朋友的意外电话。）”的句式是if条件句加祈使句的结构，选项G正好也是这个结构，表示如果你的同事在说你老板的坏话，问问他是否遇到了新员工。根据句式一致原则，我们把选项G带入原文，会发现就是和小标题change the subject一致。所以选择项G“If your coworker is saying bad words about your boss, ask whether he met the
60、 new employee. (如果你的同事在说你老板的坏话，问问他是否见过新员工。)”符合上下文语境。故选G。【18题详解】此空格是小标题形式，根据前后的标题都是动词原形开头，可以把答案锁定在ABD中，根据后面内容中“ask nicely what shes done to improve it.（礼貌地询问她做了什么来改进它。）”可以确定是action，而非the effect或者the word complaining。所以选择项B“Challenge the person to act. (激励这个人去行动。)”符合上下文语境。故选B。【19题详解】空格在段首，空格后“, tell t
61、he complainer that you must cut the conversation short.（，告诉抱怨的人你必须打断谈话。）”是逗号，可以确定需要填入半句话，观察选项只有C是半句话形式。所以选择项C“When you have things to do (当你有事要做的时候)”符合上下文语境。故选C。【20题详解】空格在段中，根据后面一句话“Otherwise, if you hide your feelings and continue listening to repeated complaints（否则，如果你隐藏你的感情，继续听重复的抱怨）”可以确定空格应该是not
62、 hide your feelings. 再根据前面“stresses you out with loads of pessimism.（用大量的悲观情绪使你疲惫不堪。）”以及小标题心与心的交流，应该是坦诚自己的想法。所以选择项E“Its important to talk about the problem. ( 谈论这个问题很重要。)”符合上下文语境。故选E。第二部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Sandra was a businesswoma
