9答案:【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过自己和朋友丿ennifer的关系的演变逐渐意识到每个人都不仅仅也不应该只有一个朋友,周图还有很多人可以与之交朋友。1.C解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的"丿enniferwantedtobethe'leader'ofourlittlegroup.Shewascontrolling…”可知丿ennifer是一个以自我为中心(selfcentered)且喜欢发号施令的人,故答案为C项。2.B解析:句意理解题。本题题干意为:第四段中画线部分“somethingsnapped"的意思是什么?第四段最后一句“Ourfriendshipfelltopieces."(我们的友谊破碎了。)与第一句前后呼应,是总结句。由此可知作者和Jennifer的关系最后破裂(breakup)了,故答案为B项。3.C解析细节理解题本题题干意为:作者决定与Jennifer绝交的原因是。根据前四段内容尤其是“struggle""leftout"等关键词可知在作者和丿ennifer的友谊中她没有被平等对待,感情受到了伤害,因此有了绝交的想法。此外,文章倒数第二段最后一句“Itdoesn'thurtmyfeelingsormakemefeellonely."也从反面说明了这一点。4.D解析:推理判断题。本题题干意为:从文中我们可以推断出什么?开始时作者觉得她和Jennifer是最好的朋友,但作者却被Jennifer伤害因而厌倦了这种单方面付出的友情后如乍者交了更多的朋友之后才发现周围有很多能够相互平等对待的朋友,也就慢慢地从中得到了快乐。由此可知答案为D项。第二组A(2018山西省考前适应性测试)BritishMuseumLocatedinGreatRussellStreet,LondonWCIB3DG,theBritishMuseumhousesavastcollectionofworldartandartifactsandisfreetoallvisitors.TheBritishMuseum'sremarkablecollectionspansovertwomillionyearsofhumanhistoryandculture,andithasmorethan7millionobjects,soitwouldprobablytakeaweekto

14主题。2.8解析:细节理解题。根据题干中的Carducci可以定位到第三段。第三段最后卡尔杜齐说,成功的闲聊的关键是学会怎样与他人产生联系,而不只是与他人交谈,故选B项。3.D解析:细节理解题。最后两段谈到2014年的一项研究,在这项研究中,主动与服务员交流的人态度更加积极,喝咖啡的体验更快乐,故D项(它(闲聊)能让人们心情愉快)符合题意。4.C解析:标题归纳题。本文阐述了闲聊的益处。放下手机,打破沉默,与陌生人开始闲聊,这能让我们心情更加舒畅,也可能会为我们的成功积攒人脉。因此选C项。C(2018北京卷)MyFirstMarathon(马拉松)Amonthbeforemyfirstmarathon,oneofmyankleswasinjuredandthismeantnotrunningfortwoweeks,leavingmeonlytwoweekstotrain.Yet,Iwasdeterminedtogoahead.Irememberbacktomy7thyearinschool.InmyfirstP.E.class,theteacherrequiredustorunlapsandthenhitasoftball.Ididn'tdoeitherwell.HelaterinformedmethatIwas"notathletic".TheideathatIwas"notathletic"stuckwithmeforyears.WhenIstartedrunninginmy30s,Irealizedrunningwasabattleagainstmyself,notaboutcompetitionorwhetherornotIwasathletic.Itwasallaboutthebattleagainstmyownbodyandmind.Atestofwills!Thenightbeforemymarathon,IdreamtthatIcouldn'tevenfindthefinishline.Iwokeupsweatingandnervous,butreadytoprovesomethingtomyself.Shortlyaftercrossingthestartline,myshoelaces(鞋带)becameuntied.SoIstoppedtoreadjust.NotthestartIwanted!

16B.Awinnerisonewithagreateffortofwill.C.Failureisthemotherofsuccess.D.Oneisnevertoooldtolearn.答案:【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者不畏艰难,挑战自我,坚持跑完马拉松,完成了一次从自我砾砸到自我认知的人生“长跑"的励志故事。1.C解析:细节理解题。由第一段第二句“Yet,Iwasdeterminedtogoahead."并结合上一句中的“leavingmeonlytwoweekstotrain"可知,虽然作者在马拉松前一个月脚踝受伤需休息两周,但他决心在仅剩的两周训练时间里继续前行,去参加马拉松长跑。故选C项。A项有一定的迷惑性,但与脚踝受伤、仅剩两周的训练时间矛盾。2.C解析:推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句“Ididn'tdoeitherwell.HelaterinformedmethatIwas'notathletic'.”可知,作者列举小时候第一次上体育课的例子,说明自己跑圈不行,打垒球也不行,所以老师告诉作者他不擅长体育运动。这显然表明了作者在运动方面没有天赋,与C项的意思匹配。3.A解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Iwasoneofthefinalrunnerstofinish.ButIfinishedr'可知,作者跑完了这次马拉松。故选A项。4.B解析:主旨大意题。根据作者对自己跑马拉松清况的叙述可知,对千一位脚踝有伤、不具有运动天赋的人来说去跑马拉松面临的挑战可想而知,但作者不畏艰难,凭着强大的意志力,最后成功到达终点。故选B项(一位具有强大意志力的获胜者)。D(2018江西上饶二模)Animalsdoamazingthings.Birdstravellongdistances.Whalescommunicateacrossvastoceans.Honeybeesrememberfamiliarflowers.Crowscanturnsticksintotools.Elephantscanimitatesounds.Monkeysdosimplemath.Cananimalsalsowarnusifanaturaldisasterisabouttostrike?AfewdaysbeforetheAsiantsunamiwhichhappenedseveralyearsago,apersonwatchedthousandsofantsrushawayfromthebeachintotheforest.Accordingtootheraccounts,elephantsscreamedandrantohighergroundas

211.B解析细节理解题。根据第二段中的“ThecarshapedsomeofthemostlastingaspectsofAmericanculture...eventhehamburger."可知,汽车塑造了某些最持久的美国文化,其中就包括汉堡。由此可知,汽车对千汉堡文化的形成,影响是非常大的。所以,在第二段中提及汉堡,就是为了说明汽车对于美国文化有相当大的影响。故选B项。2.8解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“ThecarsthatdrovetheAmericanDreamhavehelpedtocreateaglobalecologicaldisaster."可知,驱动美国梦的汽车导致了全球性的生态灾难,即汽车的使用引起了环境问题。故选B项。C项曲解文意,文章提及能源的过度消耗,但这并不意味着汽车的使用导致了石油供应的短缺。3.c解析:观点态度题。根据最后一段第一句“Friedmanpointsoutthatthegreeneconomy(经济)isachancetokeepAmericanstrength."可知,Friedman认为绿色经济是使美国保持实力的一个机遇。由此可知,他对美国的未来充满了希望。故选C项。B(2018课标全国卷田)Citiesusuallyhaveagoodreasonforbeingwheretheyare,likeanearbyportorriver.Peoplesettleintheseplacesbecausetheyareeasytogettoandnaturallysuitedtocommunicationsandtrade.NewYorkCity,forexample,isnearalargeharbouratthemouthoftheHudsonRiver.Over300yearsitspopulationgrewgraduallyfrom800peopleto8million.Butnotallcitiesdevelopslowlyoveralongperiodoftime.Boomtownsgrowfromnothingalmostovernight.In1896,Dawson,Canada,wasunmappedwilderness(荒野).Butgoldwasdiscoveredtherein1897,andtwoyearslater,itwasoneofthelargestcitiesintheWest,withapopulationof30,000.DawsondidnothaveanyofthenaturalconveniencesofcitieslikeLondonorParis.Peoplewentthereforgold.Theytravelledoversnow-coveredmountainsandsailedhundredsofmilesupicyrivers.ThepathtoDawsonwascoveredwiththirtyfeetofwetsnowthatcouldfallwithoutwarning.Anavalanche(雪崩)onceclosedthe

311.B解析:细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中的“Freebackpacksfilledwithvariousschoolsupplies"可知,在活动期间Heartland提供免费的学习用品。2.C解析:细节理解题。根据第四段的“Monday&Wednesday:8:00a.m.—5:00p.m."可知,周三上午九点可以去Heartland的诊所。3.D解析细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“Heartlandislocatedat346MaineSt.,Ste.150inLawrence..."可知Heartland的具体位置。B(2018佛山高三质检)Itwasjustonewordinonee-mail,butitcausedhugefinanciallossesforamultinationalcompany.Themessage,writteninEnglish,wassentbyanativespeakertoacolleagueforwhomEnglishwasasecondlanguage.Unsureoftheword,thereceiverfoundtwocontradictorymeaningsinhisdictionary.Heactedonthewrongone.Monthslater,seniormanagementinvestigatedwhytheprojecthadfailed,costinghundredsofthousandsofdollars.Whensuchmisunderstandingshappen,it'susuallythenativespeakerswhoaretoblame.Ironically,theyareworseatdeliveringtheirmessagethanpeoplewhospeakEnglishasasecondorthirdlanguage.AlotofnativespeakersarehappythatEnglishhasbecometheworld'sgloballanguage.Theydon'tfeeltheneedtoaccommodateoradapttoothers.Theyoftentalktoofastforotherstofollow,andusejokes,slang,shortformsandreferencesspecifictotheirownculture."ThefirsttimeIworkedinaninternationalinstitution,somebodysaid'ETA16:53'andIthought'WhatonearthisETA?'"saysMichaelBlattrer;anexecutiveinaninternationalcompany.Andthenthere'sculturalstyle.WhenaBritishreactstoaproposalbysaying"That'sinteresting",afellowBritishmightrecognizethisas"That'srubbish."Butothernationalitieswouldtaketheword"interesting"onfacevalue.Also,lotsoftheinformationisnotfullyunderstoodbecauseofthecomplex

45museumsusuallydo,theMuseumofFailureconsistsofover70'failed'productsfrombig-namecompaniessuchasAppleandCoca-Cola."可知,失败博物馆展出的不是成功的产品,而是来自苹果和可口可乐等大名鼎鼎的公司的不成功的产品。由此推知,画线词组所在句表示,韦斯特希望人们看到,即使是这种人人敬仰的大品牌,也会有搞砸的时候,故画线词组应表示“搞砸;弄得一团糟"。2.8解析·推理判断题。根据第三段中的“AlbertEinsteinoncesaid,'Apersonwhonevermadeamistakenevertriedanythingnew.'...embracedbylotsofcompaniesintheU.S.SiliconValley,forexample..."可知,美国许多公司都接纳失败,并尝试新事物,硅谷也这样。由此推知,“Failfast,failoften."指的是接纳失败,并尝试新事物。3.C解析:细节理解题。根据文章第五段中的“Butsomepeopleareskepticalofthisso-called'cultureoffailure'...asWiredmagazineputit..."可知,《连线》杂志表现出了对千“失败的文化'的怀疑态度。4.A解析:细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的内容可知,韦斯特认为,学习是将失败变为成功的唯—途径,如果你不从失败中学习,那么你就真的失败了。故选A项。D(2018甘肃高三诊断)Foralotofpeople,gettingafullnight'ssleepisnothingmorethanjustadream.Someofusclimbintobedintheearlyevening,andthenextthingweknow,it's2inthemorningandwe'restillstaringattheceiling.It'scommonknowledgethatsleepproblemscanbecausedbythingssuchasstress,anxiety,orevenusingasmartphonebeforebedtime.Butrecently,ateamofresearchersdiscoveredthatgenescouldalsobeacauseofsleeplessnights.Thescientists,fromRockefellerUniversityinNewYork,U.S.,foundthatdelayedsleep-phasesyndrome(DSPS,睡眠相位后移综合征),aconditionthataffectsone'ssleepingpatterns,ispasseddownviaamutated(突变的)gene.DSPSsufferers
