[语篇解读] 本文是一篇应用文.介绍四个不同
的动物保护志愿者项目,每个项目都提供了详细
的描述,包括项目的目标、地点、要求和费用.
1.A [细 节 理 解 题.根 据 Leatherback Turtle

每周 266 欧 元)”,WildlifeShelterCarer下 的
“Fee:706C=perweek(费用:每周706欧元)”,
ThaiElephantSanctuary 下 的 “Fee:647C= per
week(费 用:每 周 647 欧 元)”以 及 Forcefree
HorseSanctuaryAssistant下的“Fee:392C= per
week(费 用:每 周 392 欧 元)”可 知,Leatherback
TurtleAmbassador是花费最少的.]
2.B [细节理解题.根据 WildlifeShelterCarer
下的“Everyyear,hundredsofthousandsofnG
ativeanimalsareinjured...relyonthedonaG
tionsofvolunteersandthepublic.(每年,成千
上万的本土动物受伤或生病,通常是因为与人
或宠物的互动.我们的野生动物收容所拯救了
生病、受伤的本地野生动物,并爱护它们,使它
们恢复健康,回归自然环境.由于我们没有得
到政府的资助,这些庇护所依靠志愿者和公众
的捐款.)”可知,在 WildlifeShelterCarer可以
照料状况不佳的动物.]
3.D [细节理解题.根据ForcefreeHorseSancG
tuaryAssistant下的“Requirements:Age:14

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.本文主要介绍
的是穿梭于草原和牧区之间,为西藏边远地区的
人民提供医疗服务的乡村医生 Tsega.
4.B [细节理解题.根据第三段的句子“‘Inthe
past,withoutvehicles,uponreceivingmessaG
gesaboutsomeonefalingil,sometimesIhad
torideahorse,sometimeswalk.Itwouldtake
afourtofiveGdayroundtriptosomevilages,’
Tsegasaid.(Tsega说‘在过去,没有交通工具,
一接到有人生病的消息,我有时不得不骑马,有
时不得不步行.往返一些村庄需要4到5天的
时间.’)”可知,过去在安多,交通不便让提供医
疗帮助变得困难.故选B项.]
5.B [词句猜测题.根据划线短语前面的部分
“andlaterpursuedoverayearofprofessional
trainingatthePeoplesHospitalinNagchu”可
知,通过在那曲人民医院接受一年多的专业培
训,Tsega肯定是熟练掌握了西医.所以,划线
短语 proficientin的意义为“在方 面 很 熟
练,精通于”,与B项skiledat意义一致.故选
B项.]
6.A [推 理 判 断 题.根 据 第 三 段 “Tsegahas
workedasavilagedoctorinAmdoforover40
years,shuttlingbetween...‘Inthepast...to
somevilages,’Tsegasaid.”和第五段“DiscovG
eringhispassionforhealing...becomingproG
ficientinWesternmedicineaswel.”可知,TseG
ga是 个 尽 心 尽 力 的 人.根 据 第 六 段 的 句 子
“Duringhisvisits,hecarriesavarietyofmediG
cationsprovidedbythetownshiphospitaland
purchasessomehimself.和第七段的句子“Over
thepastdecade,hehaspersonalyfundedanG
nualhotspringactivitiesfortheelderly,weak
anddisabledacrossthearea”可知,Tsega是个
无私的人.故选 A 项.]
7.D [主旨大意题.本文主要介绍的是穿梭于草
原和牧区之间,为西藏边远地区的人民提供医
疗服务的乡村医生 Tsega.所以,D 项“AdocG
torisdevotedtotreatingpatientsinaremote

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.文章主要介绍
了什么是微志愿活动,它的好处和意义.
8.A [写作手法题.根据第一段中“Solvingthe
mysteryoftheLoch Ness Monsterwouldbe
consideredasagooddeed,right?...Whatyou
aredoingismicroGvolunteering,whichoffers
volunteersaseriesofeasytasksthatcanbe
doneanytime,anywhere,ontheirownterms.”可
知,第 1 段 提 到 尼 斯 湖 水 怪 是 为 了 说 明 微
志愿.]
9.B [细节理解题.根据第三段中“ThekeybenG
efitofmicroGvolunteeringisitsflexibility.PeoG
plefrequentlycitetheirlackoftimeasthebigG
gestbarriertovolunteering.Formany,microG
volunteeringremovestheneedtoworryabout

上的安排很灵活.]
10.C [词义猜测题.根据第三段中“Formany,
microGvolunteeringremovestheneedtoworry
about making longGterm commitments once
theystartvolunteering.”可知,因为微志愿在时
间上的安排很灵活,所以它可以让被排除在传
统志愿服务方式之外的人能够参与进来,所以
beexcludedfrom 的意思是“被排除”之意,和 C
项“Bediscouragedfrom”意思相近.]
11.D [推理判断题.根据最后一段中“Tosome
extent,microGvolunteeringisanapproachthat
aimstohelplotsofpeoplecometogetherto
makeadifference...itservesasacomplement
tothemoretraditionalmethodsofcontributing
togoodcauses.”可推知,作者认为微型志愿服
务可以作为对更传统的慈善方式的补充,所以
作者对微志愿的看法是可持续的.]

研究告诉我们,与邻居的关系如何以及为什么
会对我们如此有益.令当时的科学家惊讶的
是,研究结果显示,与家庭成员———甚至是自
己的孩子———的联系对幸福感或意志力几乎
没有影响.与此同时,友谊,尤其是与邻居的
友谊,预示着较低程度的孤独和担忧,较高程
度的有用感和社区内的尊重感)”可知,1976年

往具有责任感、距离和个人不和谐等特征.后

[语篇解读] 这是一篇记叙文.文章主要讲述了
作者一家在曼谷旅游时遇到一位好心的司机 的
故事.
1.E [根据上文“Googlemapssuggestedusthe
shortestroute,which wasjust20 minutes
awaybywalk.(谷歌地图为我们推荐了最短的
路线,步行只需20分钟.)”提到谷歌地图提供
了最短的路线,步行只需20分钟,结合下一段
中“Walkingalongtheheavilycrowdedroads
withthedarkredskyfeltbeautiful.(在拥挤的
道路上漫步,深红色的天空让人感觉很美.)”可
知,作者一家选择了按推荐 的 路 线 步 行,E 项
“我 们 决 定 不 浪 费 钱,而 是 花 费 时 间.”符 合
语境.]
2.C [根 据 下 一 句“ItwasclosedforredecoraG
tion.(它因重新装修而关闭了.)”可知,作者一
家应是到达酒店后发现它关闭了,C选项中 HoG
telRamada对应后文It.C项“我们到达了一个
完全不同的华美达酒店.”符合语境.]
3.A [上 一 段 末 句“Wehadnocluewherewe
were,ourmobilephonesnearlyoutofpower.
(我们不知道自己身在何处,我们的手机几乎没
电了.)”提到作者一家身陷困境,结合下文“He
wasataxidriver.(他是一名出租车司机.)”可
知,空处应是提及一个帮助作者一家解决困境
的人物,A 项“就在这时,我们的英雄来了.”符
合语境.]
4.B [根据上文“Hewassokindastoofferto
driveusaroundfortherestofourstay.(他好
心地提出在我们剩下的逗留时间里开车载我们
四处转转.)”提到那名司机带作者一行人四处
转转,结合下文“Forthenextfourdays,from
floatingmarketstothetemplesof WatPho,
ourtrip wouldnthavebeensotroublefree
withouthim.(在接下来的四天里,从水上市场
到卧佛寺,如果没有他,我们的旅行不会这么顺
利.)”可知,作者一家应是很感谢那位司机,B项
“我们的感激之情难以形容.”符合语境.]
5.G [根据上文“Sometimeswhenthingsdont
goaccordingtoplan,Ithinkaboutthestranger
wemetonthestreetsandhowatinymistake
onourpartledtounexpectedresults.(有时候,
当事情没有按计划进行时,我会想起我们在街
上遇到的那个陌生人,想到我们的一个小错误
是如何导致意想不到的结果的.)”可知,事情不
按原计划发展时作者总会想起那位陌生人和那
次旅行,所以空处应是总结那次旅行得出的感
悟,G项“这次旅行提醒我们,黑暗中总有一线
光明.”符合语境.]
