Ⅰ.A.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇文章的引言.作者通过
比尔盖茨和通用汽车公司总裁的幽默谈话向我们讲
述了“笑”的作用:可以促进我们的身体健康、增强抵抗
疾病的能力.
1.D [主旨大意题.纵观全文可以看出,文章通过一个
幽默引出了笑的作用:可以促进我们的身体健康,增
强抵抗疾病的能力.]
2.B [细节理解题.文章第一段的“IfautomotivetechG
nologyhad...insteadofaVG8”用的是虚拟语气,故该
句中的描述与事实不符.]
3.A [词 义 猜 测 题.该 词 的 意 思 应 和 此 句 前 面 的
“Jokes(笑话)”以及后面的“comedians(喜剧演员)”接
近,故选 A.而“tragedy(悲剧)”,“bodylanguage(身
势语)”,“fiction(小说)”均不在此列.]
4.B [推理判断题.由最后一段的后半部分尤其是“In
thisarticle,wel...”可以看出,该文是一篇文章的引
言,用来吸引读者,介绍文章的内容.]
B.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了澳大利
亚人幽默、讽刺的语言表达方式.
5.B [细节理解题.通过第二段(你的发型被嘲笑为经
过了一场和割草机的战斗)和第三段(你的头发被嘲
笑为abushforapigsarse)给出的两个例子可知,澳
大利亚人试图通过取笑朋友来表现幽默.故选B.]
6.A [细节理解题.根据第四段最后两句“Ifyoufind
yourself...newfriends.(如果你发现 自 己 经 常 被 取
笑,可能是因为你给自己争得了很多朋友.)”和“ConG
sideryourselflucky-theseinsultsareal partsof
buildingarelationship.(你是幸运的———这些冒犯都
是建立关系的一部分.)”可知作者认为当你被澳大利
亚人嘲笑的时候,你应该欣然接受.故选 A.]
7.A [推理判断题.根据第五段的第一句“Australians
alsousealotofsarcasm.(澳 大 利 亚 人 也 用 很 多 讽
刺.)”和第六段的故事可知“Thankyouforthisgift”
表达的是相反的情绪,因此推测为不喜欢.故选 A.]
8.C [推理判断题.文中在说明澳大利亚人如何表现
幽默和讽刺时,使用了大量的例子.故选C.]
Ⅱ.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文:笑是最好的药.
它有助于解决问题、改善关系、维持身心健康.文章就
如何让笑成为生活的一部分提出了一些建议.
1.D [考查过渡句.由设空处前面提到的“笑是最好的
药,它帮助解决问题、改善关系、维持身体和情感健
康”以及设空处后面提到的“看看下面的建议,学会让
笑成为你生活的一部分”可知设空处应该起到承上启
下的过渡作用,D 选项“但并不是每个人都擅长真诚
而准确地笑”与上文构成转折关系,同时衔接下文,符
合语境.]
2.F [考查细节句.本段开头第一句就是本段主旨:笑
自己.设空处上文讲到“勇敢地分享你的尴尬时刻”,
空后讲到“当消极的事情发生时,努力把它变成一个
幽默的故事,让你和其他人都笑起来”,F选项“试着笑
你的尴尬处境,而不是惋惜它们”与前后两句共同说
明了如何“笑自己”,符合语境.上文 中 的 Laughat
yourself与选项中laughatyourawkwardsituations
对应,embarrassed与awkward对应.]
3.A [考查主旨句.结合2、4、5段的开头语可知,第3
段也应以祈使句开头,作为本段的主旨句.设空处下
文讲到玩具、有趣的海报、让你笑的电脑屏幕保护程
序、你和你的家人或朋友玩得很开心的照片,由此可
知,本段是在说明用一些东西来提醒自己露出喜色.
故 A选项“身边放一些有趣的提醒物来让自己露出喜
色”符合语境.]
28
选择性必修第二册(BSD)
4.C [考查细节句.本段主旨为“花时间和有趣的人在
一起”,前文介绍了幽默的人的有趣的观点和笑声具
有感染力.C项“当你在他们身边的时候,你也更有
可能笑”为前一句的结果,同时呼应主题.此句中的
them 指代前文中幽默的人.]
5.B [考查过渡句.设空处前文提到看幽默的录像和
有趣的照片,后文提到试着回忆听过或读过的笑话或
看过的喜剧,B选项“如果你手边找不到任何幽默,回
忆一些有趣的事情”承上启下,符合语境.B 项中的
recal 与 下 文 的 thinkingbackto 对 应.B 项 中 的
somethingfunny又与下文的joke和comedy呼应.]
Ⅲ.[语篇解读] “我”是一名单身母亲.在一次野餐
中,“我”制 作 了 樱 桃 派,但 没 有 把 樱 桃 核 取 出 来.当
“我”的男朋友吃到并吐出来时,“我”很尴尬.但他之后
还是娶了“我”,这也成为了“我们”之间的一个笑话.
1.children [考查名词复数.句意:那时我是一个有着
四个孩子的单亲妈妈.child是可数名词,four后面应
该用复数形式children.故填children.]
2.to [考查介词.句意:我们能为野餐贡献什么? 固定
短语contributetosth.,“贡献,带来”.故填to.]
3.that/which [考查定语从句关系词.句意:一个朋友
给了我两罐樱桃罐头,可以做一个很好的樱桃派.分
析句子结构可知,此处是限制性定语从句,先行词是
cannedcherries,应用that/which引导,并在句中作主
语.故填that/which.]
4.wonderful [考查词性转换.句意:当烹饪完成并上
桌时,它看起来很好吃,味道也很好.was是系动词,
后面应跟形容词作表语,故填 wonderful.]
5.totake [考查非谓语动词.句意:野餐时,我当时的
新男友Stu第一个吃了我的派.序数词后用动词不定
式修饰,故填totake.]
6.puzzled [考查词性转换.句意:我看见他脸上露出
困惑 的 神 色.puzzling,表 示 “令 人 迷 惑 的”;修 饰
look,应该用puzzled,意为“迷惑的,困惑的”.apuzG
zledlook“困惑的表情”.故填puzzled.]
7.began [考查动词时态.句意:然后他开始吐出樱桃
核.根据上下文可知,文章的主体时态为一般过去
时,故此处应该用动词begin的一般过去时.故填beG
gan.]
8.occurred [考查动词时态.句意:我从来没有想到有
人会不先把樱桃核取出来就把它装进罐头.根据空
前的had可知,此处是过去完成时,应用动词的过去
分词形式.故填occurred.]
9.How [考查感叹句.句意:多尴尬啊! 此处为 How
引导的感 叹 句:“How + 形 容 词/副 词(+ 主 语 + 谓
语!)”,故填 How.]
10.an [考查冠词.句意:在过去的48年里,樱桃派一
直是我们之间的一个笑话.joke是可数名词,此处
缺少冠词.inside开头发音为元音,故填an.]

病,使其又能笑对生活.
1.B [细节理解题.根据第二段的“MyexGwifetoldme
