I.[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一个26
岁的女孩是如何在大庭广众之下的玻璃房里戒烟的。
1.B[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Her previous ef-
forts all failed...So this time she has made her decision
very public.”可知,她以前私下里一个人戒烟一直没有
成功,所以她希望这次在大庭广众之下可以戒烟成功。
故选B。]
2.A[细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Lu,who is a writ
er,has been keeping an online blog of her experiences in
the glass house.”可知,把自己在玻璃房里戒烟的经历发

I.A.[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。1914年到1916
年间,海员们和科学家们踏上了南极探险之路。结果他们
在回来的路上发生海难,其中一个摄影师在临死之前拍摄
了大量的照片,并把照片封存在破损的木船的冰块箱里。
通过这些照片我们可以了解到那次不太成功的探险经历。
l.D[细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“In fact,they
were shot from 1914 through 1916,most of them after a
disastrous shipwreck(海难)”可知,照片拍摄的是一次灾
难性的冒险。]
2.C[推理判断题。第三段中提到,被发现的照片所展示
的这次旅行是为了获得比Robert Falcon Scott船长先前
的探险更大的收获,该船长在1912年就到达了南极。由
此推断Robert Falcon Scott比其他三人先到达南极。]
3.C[细节理解题。题千中的Alexander在最后一段中出
现,the1914 voyage指本文谈到的Endurance这艘船的
探险,该段开头说,这个作家在她的小说The Endurance
中说,在那时,探险就已经是纯商业活动(a thoroughly
commercial effort)了,因此1914年航行的目的是赚钱
(money making),故选C项。]
4.C[推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Scott's last jour-
ney,completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hun-
ger”可知,当时的场景非常凄惨。]
B.[语篇解读]本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了
一名滑雪者在阿尔卑斯山遭過雪崩后被营救的故事。
5.B[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“He didn't have time
to escape and it hit him with full force and knocked him
senseless..”以及文章接下来描述的内容可知,本在阿尔
卑斯山出了滑雪事故。]
6.A[细节理解题。根据第三段中的“His friend called
the French rescue services.”可知,是他的朋友给法国救
援服务机构打的电话。]
7.D[推理判断题。根据第四段中的“I was waiting for
what seemed like hours on that rock.I was beginning to
give up hope'”可知,本在漫长的等待过程中开始有点儿
放弃希望了。]
8.A[标题归纳题。文章首段“A snowboarder was feel
ing lucky to be alive yesterday after a helicopter rescue."
为全文的主题句,下文围绕此话题展开叙述。由此可
知,A项用作标题最合适。]
参考答案
Ⅱ.[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了法
国探险家雅克·卡蒂埃的三次航海探险经历。
l.B[由该空前的“Jacques Cartier went to North America
looking for gold..”和该空后的“It became France's
main route into Canada..”可知,B项“相反,雅克·卡蒂埃
发现了圣劳伦斯河”符合此处语境。]
2.G[由第三段中的“In about 1534,the king of France
asked him to lead an expedition(远征)”可知,G项“在
1534年春天,卡蒂埃横渡大西洋到了现在的加拿大”符
合语境。]
3.A[由该空后的“This time,Cartier sailed deeper into
the Gulf of Saint Lawrence..”可知,在1535年5月,卡
蒂埃进行了第二次航行。]
4.C[由该空前的“the first Europeans to winter in what
is now Canada”可知,C项“严寒令卡蒂埃和船员们难以
承受,其中一些船员死于严寒”符合此处语境。]
5.F[由该空前的“Cartier once again crossed the Atlan-
tic”和该空后的“he was told that they were just the com-
mon minerals pyritet(黄铁矿)(fool's gold)and quartz(石
英)”可知,1541年卡蒂埃第三次北航,他进一步探险,发
现了他认为是黄金和宝石的“宝物”。]

峰的同时,却留下来太多的垃圾,这造成了环境污染。幸
好有环保登山者致力于清理珠峰,收集的垃圾被制成艺术

词作宾语,故填waiting。]
3.crowds[考查名词。分析句子结构可知,设空处作句子
主语,谓语动词是are,所以主语要用复数形式,故填
crowds。
4,to bring[考查非谓语动词。need to do sth.中,动词不
定式作need的宾语,表示“需要做某事”,故填to bring。]
5.tallest[考查最高级。根据句义可知,此处要用形容词
最高级形式,表示“世界上最高的垃圾场”,故填tallest。]

布泉是世界上最危险的地方之一。雅各布泉曾经夺走过
不止8名潜水员的性命,但是前赴后继的探险家们依旧选
择到这里来潜水。
l.A[词义猜测题。根据“The cool water there has lured
locals and visitors to the Hill Country spot for hundreds
of years.(几百年来,那里凉爽的水吸引了当地人和游客
来到这一丘陵地区)”可知,该词的意思相当于“吸引”,
所以选A项。]

the lip of the well,escaping the heat,spending time with
friends..”可知,许多人和朋友去那里是为了避暑,所以
选B项。]

deadly lifestyle.”以及第三段中的“.had to cut away
his weight belt to make it back to the surface before his
breath ran out.”可知,在泉里潜水是非常危险的,所以选
C项。]

危险的地方之一,它曾经夺走过不止8名潜水员的性命。
由此可知,本文主要介绍的是雅各布泉的危险性,所以

时光的好方法。本文向我们介绍了露营时让父母高兴的
几条建议。
1.G[本段前两句介绍了露营的好处,本空后面的How
ever表示语义转折,由此可以推知此处是进一步介绍露
营的好处,故选G项(即使就在家附近的营地也可以打
开一个令人兴奋的新世界)。]
2.C[本段介绍露营时可以和父母一起骑自行车,由此可
知此处应该是介绍骑车的快乐,故选C项(沿着山路飞
驰而下将会是一次很快乐的经历)。]
3.D[本段讲的是在河边露营时,可以和父母乘船捕鱼,
故D项(天晚些的时候你们可以在篝火上烤鱼吃)符合
