42、n human communication.The advanced smell-spraying machines.參考答案Passage 1D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。題目問作者寫作本文的意圖。文章一開始就說歡迎到Ontario Parks游玩，后面介紹該公園做了哪些改進(jìn)措施以及該公園具體有哪些娛樂項(xiàng)目，最后再次歡迎人們到該公園游玩。選項(xiàng)A ，告訴更多的人Ontario 公園有哪些改進(jìn)措施； 選項(xiàng) B ， 吸引更多的人從網(wǎng)上瀏覽該公園； 選項(xiàng) C， 贊美 Ontario公園的美景。這三個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是以偏概全，沒有全面表達(dá)文章的意思。選項(xiàng)D ，讓更多的人到該公園游玩，符合文章的意思，為正確答案。B細(xì)節(jié)理解題

43、。題目問Ontario公園做了哪些改進(jìn)措施?？梢远ㄎ坏轿恼碌诙?，從中找到正確答案。選項(xiàng)A ，新項(xiàng)目和服務(wù)；選項(xiàng)B ，新的休息站點(diǎn)和野營站點(diǎn)；選項(xiàng)C,休息站點(diǎn)和特殊活動(dòng)；選項(xiàng) D,新的野營站點(diǎn)和教育項(xiàng)目。文章第二段第四句話中明確提到， 增加了新的休息站點(diǎn)和野營站點(diǎn)， 并打算以后增加教育項(xiàng)目。所以，正確答案為選項(xiàng) B 。C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。 Ontario 公園為游客提供什么。 選項(xiàng) A ， 世界上最新的運(yùn)動(dòng)和游戲項(xiàng)目；選項(xiàng)B ，世界上最激動(dòng)人心的冒險(xiǎn)活動(dòng)。這是無中生有；選項(xiàng)C，放松和振作精神的多種選擇。第四段第二句的 for relaxation and fun, or simply toget

44、away from it all就是該選項(xiàng)的同義改寫；選項(xiàng) D,經(jīng)歷所有戶外活動(dòng)的機(jī)會(huì)。第四段最后一句說， 體驗(yàn)世界上其他地方的一些戶外經(jīng)歷， 但并不是所有的活動(dòng)。因此正確答案為 C。A 推理判斷題。選項(xiàng) A ，有游客建議要多弄一些野營地點(diǎn)。根據(jù)第二段，作者說收到了很多意見卡，根據(jù)建議，他們?cè)鲈O(shè)了些野營地點(diǎn)。所以，該選項(xiàng)正確；選項(xiàng)B,上季度，大約有15,000人游玩了 45個(gè)公園。這是對(duì)原文的曲解，文章說的是 “我們咨詢了 45 個(gè)公園中的 15,000名游客 ”；選項(xiàng) C, 2006年，將有更多的人參觀游玩Ontario 公園；選項(xiàng) D, Ontario 公園的經(jīng)理擔(dān)心他們的游客數(shù)量將減少。

45、這兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)都犯了無中生有的錯(cuò)誤。Passage 2D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。定位原文根據(jù)“Someone may call and say that they are from:Immigration Canada可知，如果自稱是加拿大移民局的人打電話向你收錢，那么 這可能是一個(gè)騙局，故D 項(xiàng)正確。A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。定位原文根據(jù)“ Embassies willnot threaten you to make apayment or request an investigation fee due to a fake的造的）passport.可知, 大使館不會(huì)要求你為假護(hù)照支付調(diào)查費(fèi)用，故A 項(xiàng)正確。A推斷

46、題。定位原文根據(jù)文章第一句話“The International Student Center hasheard of several frauds 詐騙）that are targeting international students.可知， 國際學(xué) ” 生中心聽說了針對(duì)國際學(xué)生的騙局， 文章介紹了這些騙局的特點(diǎn)以及告訴國際學(xué) 生如何警惕上當(dāng)，由此可知本文的目標(biāo)讀者是國際學(xué)生，故A 項(xiàng)正確。Passage 3B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“ Emilia Dubcek traces her interest in space andthe universe back to third grade when she and her father watched a blood moon alunar eclipse （月蝕 ） on the roof of their house. Emilia Dubcek. 對(duì)太空和宇宙感興”趣是在三年級(jí)，與父親在屋頂一次看月食的時(shí)候；lunar意為月亮的。因此答案為 B。C 推斷題。根據(jù)第四段“Ikn
