综合性
Ⅰ.A.[语篇解读] 本文通过一个小故事讲述了幽默的
重要性.
1.C [细节理解题.根据第一段的“whohitatraffic
jamonhiswaytowork”可知,他迟到的原因是他碰上
了交通堵塞.]
2.B [推理判断题.根据第一段“...shortlyafterreG
ceivinganultimatum(最后通牒)aboutbeinglateon
thejob.”我 们 可 以 了 解 到,Sam 不 止 一 次 上 班 迟
到了.]
3.A [词义猜测题.前面提到老板连辞退他的话都想
好了,而Sam 开的这个玩笑使人们哄堂大笑.而老板
为了树立他的威严,仍然强忍住笑.故答案为 A.]
4.B [主旨大意题.根据第一段第一句和第四段第一
句可知,整篇短文讲的是幽默的重要性.]
B.[语篇解读] 美国国家航空航天局正在寻找一个“小
丑”来加入其前往火星的飞行任务中.文章分析了美国
国家航空航天局这么做的原因,还以 AdolfLindstrom
为例,突出了幽默感在该项任务中的重要性.
5.B [考查细节理解.根据第一段中的“TheUSspace
agencyislookingfora‘joker’”可知,美国国家航空航
天局想要一个幽默的人加入其前往火星的飞行任务;
又根据最后一段可知,仅仅有幽默是不够的,这个人
必须是优秀的科学家和工程师,即他必须是专业方面
很优秀的人.综上所述,B选项(一个有才能的诙谐的
人)切题.]
6.D [考查词义猜测.根据第二段中的“atripthere
wouldtakearoundeightmonthsinasmalspacecraft”
可知,前往火星的行程非常漫长,而且是在一个小的
宇宙飞船中.而第三段以火星之旅为例(suchasona
missiontoMars),表明长时间在“aconfinedspace”中
很容易出问题.故可推知aconfinedspace应该指的
是狭小的、有限的空间.故 D选项正确.]
7.C [考查推理判断.根据第六段中的“ItwasadiffiG
cultjourney...the mostvaluable memberofthe
team”可知,Adolf的幽默感使队员们在整个旅程中保
持心情愉悦,从而成功地完成了艰难的旅程,所以,他
被认为是团队中最有价值的成员.该段以此为例来
证明幽 默 感 在 困 难 处 境 下 的 重 要 性.故 C 选 项
正确.]
78
参考答案
8.C [考查主旨大意.结合全文内容,文章第一段开门
见山,直入主题:美国国家航空航天局有一份新的工
作.它正在寻找一个“小丑”来加入前往火星的飞行
任务中.下文分析了美国国家航空航天局这么做的
原因:幽默感可以缓解宇航员的压力,从而使其专心
工作.文 章 还 以 AdolfLindstrom 为 例 证 明 了 这 一
点.最后,文章强调了对“小丑”的要求.即全文是围
绕美国国家航空航天局的这份新工作展开的.故选
C项.]
Ⅱ.[语篇解读] 本文介绍了笑对健康有很多益处以及
笑声疗法越来越受人们的欢迎.
1.G [由空后内容可知,笑有助于减轻疼痛、增强免疫
力和减轻压力.笑刺激身体分泌可以使我们感到快
乐的荷尔蒙.笑也会加快血液在全身的流动,并且有
类似于通过锻炼获得的益处.由此可推知此处是在
说笑对健康有诸多益处.]
2.E [由“Childrenexposedtofunnyfilmsandcartoons
beforemajorproceduresareabletocopebetterwith
painandanxiety.”可知,在进行重大手术前,接触有趣
的电影和动画片的儿童能够更好地应对疼痛和焦虑.
所以该空要表明笑声疗法可应用的地点.E项“在儿
童医院使用笑声疗法已经被证明是极有用的”符合文
意.E项 中 的“childrenshospitals”与 空 后 的 “ChilG
dren”对应.]
3.B [由空后的“Theseareprofessionalclownswhoare
senttohospitalstoentertainsickchildren”可知,应选
B 项,These 指 代 B 项 中 的 “soGcaledclowndocG
tors”.]
4.C [由上下文可推知,该空要表明训练开始时出现的
一些情况,故C项“有些人一开始可能会觉得它很尴
尬”符合文意.]
5.F [由空前的“Moreover,laughteriscontagious(有感
染力的)”可知,笑是有感染力的.所以该空要具体说
明笑是如何发挥感染作用的.故F项“如果一个人开
始大笑,其他人就不可避免地被其笑声所感染”符合
文意.]
Ⅲ.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.文章主要讲了规
律平衡的饮食比节食更能有效地保持健康的体重.
1.than [考查连词.句意:规律平衡的饮食比节食更能
有效地保持健康的体重.文中含有比较的意思,故填
than.]
2.wereasked [考查一般过去时的被动语态.设空处
前的 who指代2,452womenand2,227men,此处表
示“他们被要求完成问卷”,应用被动语态,由主句的
时态可知,此处应用一般过去时,故填 wereasked.]
3.and [考查连词.both...and...意为“和
都”,故填and.]
4.children [考查名词复数.因为child是可数名词,且
其前有twoormore,用名词复数,故填children.]
5.disappointed [考查形容词作表语的用法.设空处作
表语,说明主语 woman的状态,表示“失望的”,故填
形容词disappointed.]
6.Usualy [考查副词.设空处作状语,修饰后面整个
句子,表示“通常”,故填副词 Usualy.]
7.get [考查非谓语动词.makesb.dosth.意为“使某
人做某事”.]
8.helping [考查v.Ging形式作宾语的用法.设空处作
介词in的宾语,用v.Ging形式,故填helping.]
9.education [考查名词.设空处作宾语,表示“教育”,
故填名词education.]
10.who/that [考查定语从句.设空处引导定语从句
修饰those,且在从句中作主语,由语境可知,those
在此指代people,故填 who/that.]

综合性
Ⅰ.A.[语篇解读] 本文是记叙文.文章讲述了小学教
师 Whaley通过组织学生演讲来帮助学生增强自信的教
学实践.
1.B [细 节 理 解 题.根 据 第 一 段 中 的 “...todayis
speechday,andrightnowitsChrisPalaezsturn.”和
“...heseemslikethekindofkidwhowouldenjoy
publicspeaking.”可 知,今 天 是 演 讲 日,现 在 轮 到 了
Chris,虽然他看起来像那种喜欢在公共场合讲话的孩
子,但是他很紧张.由此可知,演讲使 Chris紧张.故
选B.]
2.A [词义猜测题.根据第二段中的“youshould...
should...”以及“...Votefor...me...”这样的语句
特点可知,Chris的演讲不流畅,也就是说有不适当的
停顿.这是他表现不好的地方,与画线词后的句意
“他完成得非常好”构成转折关系,与短语exceptfor
的语意相呼应.故选 A.]
3.A [推 理 判 断 题.根 据 倒 数 第 二 段 中 的 “Whaley
says...boastaboutthemselves.”可 知,Whaley创 办
这个项目的目的不仅仅是让学生学会阅读和在公共
场合演讲,他还希望学生学会自夸.故选 A.]
