Ⅰ.A.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.文章主要介绍了
学习汉语的重要性、汉语的特点以及学习汉语的困难.
1.D [推理判断题.根据第一段第三、四 句 中 的“China
startstobecometheengineoftheworldseconomyinthe
comingyears.Thiswil makelearningChineseveryimG
portantforpeopleinmanyindustries,”可推知,中国将在
未来几年成为世界经济的引擎,这使学习汉语变得非常
重要,由此可知,学习汉语变得越来越重要是因为中国对
世界经济变得重要.]
2.B [推理判断题.根据第三段作者对汉语拼音和汉语文
字体系的理解可知,作者对汉语和中国文化很感兴趣.]
3.A [段落大意题.根据最后一段第一句“FornativeEngG
lishspeakersChineseisoneofthemostdifficultandmost
differentlanguagestolearn.”可知,本段主要介绍了学习
汉语很困难.]
4.C [推理判断题.根据最后一段最后一句“Yet,fora
determinedlearner,theresalwaysawaytoovercomeit.”
可知,对于有决心的学习者来说,总有办法克服这些困
难,所以接下来作者可能会介绍如何克服困难去学习汉
语的建议.]
B.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.文章主要介绍了甲骨
文———中国最早的文字记录.
5.D [细节理解题.根据文章第一段最后一句“TheearliG
estwrittenrecordsofChinesecultureareknownasoracle
boneinscriptions(甲 骨 文).They werediscovered121
yearsago.(中国最早的文字记录是甲骨文.它 们 是 在
121年前被发现的.)”可知,根据选项2024年的121年前
是1903年,但考虑到是121“年前”,因此应往前推算一
年,即1903年的前一年1902年是甲骨文被发现的年份.]
6.C [细 节 理 解 题.根 据 文 章 第 二 段 中 “Peopleasked
questionsabout manytopicssuchasthe weather,the
workandloveandsoon.(人们会问很多关于天气、工作
和爱情等话题的问题.)”可知,人们会问很多关于天气、
工作和爱情等话题的问题.但不会问世界上第一个生物
是什么时候出现的,因为这是在探究生物起源问题,而非
通过占卜可以得知的未来之事.]
7.B [词义猜测题.根据文章第三段中“Tensofthousands
oforacleboneshavebeenfoundsofar.(到目前为止,已
经发现了数万块甲骨文.)”以及后文“Theycantelusa
greatdealabouthowpeoplelivedduringtheShangDyG
nasty.(它们可以告诉我们很多关于商朝人们是如何生活
的.)”可知,“They”指代前文提到的甲骨文,这些甲骨文
能让我们了解很多关于商朝的事情,以及甲骨文帮助我
们理解我们的文化从何而来,故划线词指代的内容与 B
选项“Theoraclebones.(甲骨文)”相一致.]
8.B [主旨大意题.根据文章第一段“Theearliestwritten
recordsofChinesecultureareknownasoracleboneinG
scriptions(甲骨文).(中国最早的文字记录是甲骨文.)”
以及通读全文,文章主要介绍了甲骨文———中国最早的
文字记录.甲骨文是商朝时期用于占卜并将结果记录在
兽骨上的文字,距今已有三千多年历史.这些记录为了
解商朝时期人们的生活和文化提供了宝贵信息,同时也
是理解汉字发展和演变的关键.2017年,甲骨文被联合
国教科文组织列入“世界记忆”名录,成为古代中国的重
要记忆.文章主要讲述了古代的文字记录———甲骨文.
故B选项“TheDevelopmentofOracleBoneInscriptions
(甲骨文的发展)”概括文章主要内容,符合标题.]
Ⅱ.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.许多同学感觉上英
语课很吃力,文章主要从三个角度介绍了如何上英语课,
甚至爱上英语课.
1.E [根据小标题可知此空内容与“阅读”这个话题相关.
下文指出你应该学会爱上阅读.根据 So可知设空处与
下一句是因果关系.E项“阅读能帮助你旅行,想象不可
能的事情.”与下文联系紧密.]
2.C [设空处的上一句提到有一些技巧是可以帮助阅读
的.由此可推测设空处的内容与技巧相关.C 选项“然
而,提升阅读技巧也是需要时间的.”与上文不仅内容相
通,都讲阅读技巧,而且形成转折关系.]
3.B [空格处为小标题.提炼对应段落内容大意可知,本
段主要讲到如果我们遇到问题,可以找老师帮忙,把自
己的问题摊开来与老师谈谈.]
4.D [本段主要讲遇到问题多向老师求助,且上一句提到
找时间跟老师谈谈你遇到的问题.由此可知,D选项“你
会惊讶于你的老师是一个多好的帮手.”不仅贴合本段的
大意,而且与上一句逻辑相通.]
5.G [本段主要建议积极参与课堂讨论.上文指出参与讨
论的好处———使你融入课堂,帮助你对阅读和学习的东
西更感兴趣.G项承接上文,指出另一个好处就是可以
使你丰富相关材料的知识.]

多历史遗迹已经渐渐地被破坏.]
2.C [推理判断题.根据第一段中的“buildinganewfloor

知,他赞成加装地板.]
3.A [词 义 猜 测 题.根 据 第 二 段 中 的“Visitorswantto
knowwhatitwasliketobetherewhentheplacewasbeG
ingused.”可知,游客游览某个古迹时想要知道这个地方
过去时候的样子.而改变古迹可以帮助游客实现这一想
法.由此可知,此处的dothis指代“领略历史遗迹过去的
样子”.下文以罗马斗兽场的新地板为例对此进行了解
释说明.]
4.B [推理判断题.根据最后一段中 TomasoMontanari
的讲话可知,TomasoMontanari认为罗马斗兽场的改变
向游客呈现了假的场景,这一改变很可笑,并没有必要.]
B.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.文章讲述了由于污
染,泰姬陵白色的石墙都变颜色了.
5.D [细节理解题.根据文章第一段“TheinsectsdropG
pingsarebeginningtoturnthewalsgreen.(昆虫的粪便
开始把墙壁染成绿色.)”可知,昆虫留下的粪便使得泰姬
陵的石墙变成了绿色.]
6.C [推 理 判 断 题.根 据 文 章 第 二 段 “Butexpertsfear
cleaningcoulddamagetheartworkoftheTajMahal.(但
专家担心,清洁工作可能会损坏泰姬陵的艺术品.)”可
知,专家担心,清洗会对泰姬陵的艺术造成损坏.所以清
洗工作是比较有挑战性的.]
7.A [推 理 判 断 题.根 据 文 章 第 三 段 “Therearemany

er.(沿河有许多燃煤发电站.由于空气污染,泰姬陵的白
色石头已经变黄了.此外,工业废料正在污染这条河.)”
可知,亚穆纳河沿岸有许多燃煤发电站,造成的空气污染
使泰姬陵的白石墙变黄了.另外,从工厂排出的工业废
物也污染着河水.环保人士 D.K.Joshi认为,应当治理
这些污染企业.]
8.D [推理判断题.根据第四段的“Socityofficialsshould
forcepeopletotry moreenvironmentalyfriendlycusG
toms.(因此,城 市 官 员 应 该 强 迫 人 们 尝 试 更 环 保 的 习
俗.)”可知,专家认为,城市官员应迫使人们尝试较为环
保的丧葬习俗.]
Ⅱ.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文.文章主要介绍了自

遗产所采取的措施.
1.C [由上文“Naturalsitesandhistoricbuildings,when
leftalone,canslowlybeinbadcondition.(自然遗址和历
史建筑,如果不加以保护,就会慢慢遭到破坏.)”可知,本
空要说跟“自然遗址和历史建筑的破坏”有关的话题,由
下文“Forthesereasonswemustprotectthem.(基于这些
原因,我们必须保护它们.)”可知,本句要表达自然遗址
和历史 建 筑 遭 到 破 坏 的 原 因,故 C 选 项 “Peoplecan
changetheseplacestoo,justasthewindandraincan.(人
们也可以改变这些地方,就像风雨一样.)”能承上启下,
符合题意.]
2.A [由上文“‘WorldHeritage’isthetitlegiventoplaces

挑选出来的.这些地方被认为是特殊的、有价值的,需要
保护.它们可能是自然或文化遗址,是这个国家人民的

的话题,故 A选项“Theymayalsobehometoendangered
species.(它们也可能是濒危物种的栖息地.)”能承接上
文,符合题意.]
3.E [由 下 文 “Thats why measuresarebeingtaken
aroundtheworldtoprotectthem.(这就是为什么世界各
地都在采取措施保护它们.)”可知,本空要说跟“采取措
施的原因”有关的话题,故E选项“EvenextremelybeautiG
