21、题。根据小标题Cancellation policy中的 “(b)This experience requires good weather. If its canceled due to poor weather, youll be offered a different date or a full refund. ”(这种体验需要好天气。如果由于天气原因而取消,你将被提供一个不同的日期或全额退款。)可知A项错误;B选项对旅行者来说,这是一次威胁生命的冒险。与文章不符;根据小标题matters need attention中的“Group size is limited to 13 peo
22、ple to ensure a quality experience.” 团体规模限制为 13 人,以确保获得高质量的体验。由此可知C选项“如果要集体体验,少数旅行者是必要的”符合文章的旅游要求限制人数,C选项正确;本篇文章是和旅游相关的,应该更可能出现在旅游杂志上,不可能出现在时尚杂志上。故D选项不对,故选C。【点睛】一般定位关键词适用于解答细节理解题。通过定位关键词解题,考生在阅读题干时,把题干中有标记意义的词或词组划记出来,或者选项中的关键词,然后用这个词回到原文当中定位。如小题1题干中的intensity,定位回文章中的第一部分,可以帮助快速找出答案。BI heard many par

They set off in new directions in music, but somehow they all end up gathering around listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in a similar way is that the
32、 crowd is doing it.”可知,青少年声称想穿自己喜欢的衣服,但他们都穿同样的衣服。他们开始选择欣赏新的音乐,但不知何故,他们都聚在一起听同一张唱片。他们以类似的方式思考或行动的原因是,大家都在这样做。因此如果青少年产生了叛逆心理,他们会跟随着同龄人做相同的事情。故选C。【5题详解】主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of todays parents have come to a
33、ward high marks for the popularity of their children. All these create a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path. ”可知,如今,每个青少年都能从广告中学到青少年应该拥有什么和应该成为什么样的人而且许多父母都为孩子的受欢迎程度打高分。所有这些都给想要找到自己前进道路的青少年制造了巨大的障碍。因此第三段主要讲的是关于青少年找不到自己前进之路的原因。故选C。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Well, go for it.
34、Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come with the people who respect you for who you are. That is the only kind of popularity that really matters.”可知,作者鼓励青少年要找到自己前进的方向,做好自己,才会赢得别人的欢迎和尊重。即作者建议青少年要坚持自己的想法。故选D。CWhen we talk about positive thinking, we often use terms having to do with our heart
35、s open heart, pure heart or joyful heart. But new research from Duke University is making a closer connection, finding that a positive attitude may be helpful to people who have angina (心绞痛),a common heart condition. Symptoms of this condition include chest pain or pressure because the heart is not
36、receiving sufficient oxygen. Patients who displayed optimistic thought patterns, including having positive expectations about recovery, were 40 percent less likely to be hospitalized or require surgery than those who were not optimistic, according to the study. The researchers collected data from 2,
37、400 patients who had diagnoses of angina. An interesting additional finding from the patients questionnaires was that the most optimistic patients were also the least likely to have histories of heart attack, heart failure or heart disease. The researchers did not declare a causal relationship betwe

There are multiple possible reasons for the results of the study, including the idea that patients who are healthier to begin with are more likely to expect to recover and regain good health. But the study does represent a new way of l
39、ooking at the situation. Now, in addition to a body of research that examines the relationship between depression and heart health, there is a new way of inquiry that asks whether positive thinking could be used as a strategy to improve outcomes.

Angina, a kind of serious conditionC. Depression, a key cause of heart attackD. Positive thinking makes hearts healthier【答案】7. B
44、 8. A 9. B 10. D【解析】本文是一篇说明文。最新研究表明,积极的态度可能有助于患有心绞痛的人。文章呼吁每个人要微笑面对生活,这是一把打开每个人心灵的钥匙。【7题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But new research from Duke University is making a closer connection, finding that a positive attitude may be helpful to people who have angina”可知,杜克大学的一项新研究正在建立积极思考和心脏之间更紧密的联系,发现积极的态度可能对患有心绞痛的人有所帮
45、助。因此根据这项研究,心绞痛患者可以通过积极的思考从而感觉好一些。故选B。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“his next research question will find ways to improve attitudes among heart patients.”可知,亚历山大法纳罗夫的下一个研究问题是找到改善心脏病患者态度的方法。即亚历山大法纳罗夫下一步的研究可能是探讨如何改善患者的态度。故选A。【9题详解】细节理解题。由第三段中的“the most optimistic patients were also the least likely to have hist
46、ories of heart attack, heart failure or heart disease.”可知,乐观的病人比别的病人得心脏病的可能性小,但不意味着乐观的人不会得心脏病,因此A项是错误的,也可知道C项的描述“积极的思维对心脏健康有多大好处尚不清楚”是错误的。由第五段中的“a body of research that examines the relationship between depression and heart health”可知,有研究在关注抑郁症与心脏健康之间的关系,但没有提到D项的“病人恢复良好的原因是他们没有抑郁症”。由第四段中的“patients wh
47、o are healthier to begin with are more likely to expect to recover and regain good health.”可知,一开始健康的患者更容易期望康复和恢复良好的健康。即人们的积极态度决定了他们的整体健康状况。故选B。【10题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“But new research from Duke University is making a closer connection, finding that a positive attitude may be helpful to people who have
48、angina,a common heart condition. ”可知,杜克大学的最新研究表明,积极的态度可能有助于患有心绞痛的人,但没有提到“保持积极的心态能够摆脱疾病”,因此A项的描述是错误的。由第一段的“people who have angina ,a common heart condition”可知,心绞痛是一种常见的心脏病,因此B项的描述“心绞痛是一种严重的疾病”是错误的。文章没有提到“抑郁症是心脏病发作的主要原因”,因此C项是错误的。D项的描述“积极的思考使心脏更健康”符合文章第一段中的描述。即D项可以作为文章的最佳标题。故选D。第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根
