18、 years of previous experience in related areas is required”至少兩年工作經(jīng)驗。作者提到“a photographer Cambridge for over 3 years”表明作者在經(jīng)驗上是符合招聘要求的。A. She once did work there她曾經(jīng)在那里工作過B.

B【解析】本文是一篇說明文。文中介紹了一個非營利性組織Puppies Behind Bars (PBB)，該組織正在執(zhí)行一個項目：讓犯人把狗培訓成警犬或導盲犬，使之為社區(qū)服務。由于這是個雙贏的事，不僅讓這些犯人通過訓練狗感受到了溫暖的愛，而且也培訓了可為人類服務的狗。為此，作者為這個有意義的項目提供了大量的資金支持。4. 詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第一段第二句“

28、This non-profit organization is the brainchild of Gloria Gilbert Stoga，”主語是This non-profit organization非營利性組織；下文中可以看到Gloria Gilbert Stoga是一位婦女。句意：這個非營利性組織是這個女子的A. Founder奠基人，創(chuàng)立人，B. Idea想法，C. Pain痛苦，D. Wealth財富。故選B。【點睛】做此類型的詞義猜測題時，一定要把所有選項的意思弄明白。另外還要學會分析句子成分。如：本題中，This non-profit organization is the

29、brainchild of Gloria Gilbert Stoga這個非營利性組織是這個女子的。我們把各個選項的意思帶入到省略號內，就能用排除法找出答案。5. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句話“to become service dogs for the handicapped (殘疾人), or police dogs to serve police forces”，我們可知，這些特別挑選的囚犯把訓練小狗成為殘疾人的服務犬，或警犬警察部隊，故選C。6. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句“All donations to the program are used to buy dog food

30、, training supplies, and veterinary care”，句意：該項目的所有捐款都用于購買狗糧、培訓用品和獸醫(yī)護理。A項意為：用于警方和罪犯。B項意為：將被用于與狗相關方面。C項意為：常被用于傳統(tǒng)方法訓練狗。D項意為：將被分發(fā)給殘疾人。故選B。7. 寫作意圖題。根據(jù)短文中的最后一句“Because of this we have given a lot of monetary support of this meaningful program”，句意：正因為如此，我們?yōu)檫@個有意義的項目提供了大量的資金支持。我們可以看出，作者寫這篇短文的目的就是為了講述給這個項目提供

31、資金支持的原因。即：講述這個項目的重要性。A項意為：要求人們支持警方。B項意為：說明PBB的重要性。C項意為：號召人們照顧狗。D項意為：贊揚Gloria和他的團隊。故選B。If you are in a dilemma about being self-taught or getting formal education, you have come to the right webpage. In this article, we note the advantages of each of these to help you decide which one would be the be

32、st for you.Perhaps the biggest advantage of being self-taught is that you are able to save a lot of money. With each passing year, the cost of getting a degree is on the rise. As a result, many students these days tend to graduate from college with a significant amount of debt. This makes it necessa

33、ry for them to get a job as soon as possible, otherwise a number of serious issues may arise. Besides, it is possible to learn faster on your own, by focusing on only those areas that you are interested in. Finally, learning on your own can be a great confidence builder. You have to struggle to gain

34、 knowledge but once you clear the basics on your own, you will find yourself being much more confident about your abilities.One of the biggest advantages of formal education is that you get a degree which is a mark of recognition that you have achieved a level of knowledge in that particular field.

35、Many companies tend to prefer candidates who have a college degree. Whats more, though formal education lacks the convenience and flexibility of self-education, it offers you much more in terms of the actual structure of the learning process. Last, being formally educated means that you will enter a

36、 college or other similar educational institutions. There you will get the benefit of being taught and guided by learned teachers and other subject experts. This will be a big benefit as you will be able to take advantage of their experience and gain in-depth knowledge about the subject.Thus, both f

37、ormal education and self-education have their own sets of advantages. The choice between the two comes down to individual preferences as well as personal situations.8.

D 11. C【解析】本文是一篇說明文。文章分析了正規(guī)教育和自學各自的優(yōu)勢。自學或接受正規(guī)教育的選擇取決于個人喜好和個人情況。8. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段內容，可知自學的三個優(yōu)點“save a lot of m

41、oney.Besides, it is possible to learn faster on your own, by focusing on only those areas that you are interested in. a great confidence builder?！笨芍狝項更快的學習速度是其第二個優(yōu)點。故選A項。9. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“Last, being formally educated means that you will enter a college or other similar educational institutions. There

42、you will get the benefit of being taught and guided by learned teachers and other subject experts.”可知要想受益于有學問的專家的指導，就必須進入教育機構，故B項正確。10. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段的最后一句“The choice between the two comes down to individual preferences as well as personal situations.”可知，兩者之間的選擇取決于個人喜好和個人情況。分析選項可知D項（個人喜好和個人情況）符合題意，故選D

43、項。11. 寫作意圖題。本文第一段告訴讀者“如果你正處于自學或接受正規(guī)教育的兩難境地，那么你就來到了正確的網(wǎng)頁。在這篇文章中，我們注意到每一種教育的優(yōu)點，以幫助您決定哪一種是最好的”，接著第二段第三段各自分析二者的優(yōu)點，最后一段說“因此，正規(guī)教育和自我教育都有自己的優(yōu)勢。兩者之間的選擇取決于個人喜好和個人情況。”由此可知作者寫此文的目的是幫助讀者在兩種教育形式中選擇。故選C項正確。Its comforting to think if you were somehow swallowed by a whale, youd simply hang out in his stomach until

44、he eventually spat you out, unharmed and whole. Unfortunately, your chance of ending up in this type of situation is pretty low.In 2012 reporter Ben Shattuck read the records at the New Bedford Whaling Museum Research Library. Despite his extensive research at one of the most comprehensive whaling a

45、rchives (檔案), he failed to find a single report of anyone ever being swallowed alive by a whale. He found plenty of reports of whalers who were bitten or injured by the creatures, and several who died after fighting with a whale, but none related to swallowing.With whaleslarge mouths, it certainly s

46、eems possible that a whale could swallow someone whole, so why is it so unlikely? Baleen whales, or whales without teeth, are some of the largest creatures on the planet. Despite their massive size, baleen whales could never get you into their bellies thanks to their relatively small esophagus (食道).

47、 These whales are designed to eat small sea creatures, and the opening in their throat is only about as large as a basketball, so youd never make it that far.But what about toothed whales? Sperm whales eat whole seals, so you could easily fit down their throats and into their stomachs. However, once

48、 you reached the first of the sperm whales four stomachs, your journey would probably end quickly. Not only would the whales stomach acid make quick work of you, but youd experience a distinct lack of air on the inside. Actually, youre more likely to get eaten or injured as you try to make it past t

49、he sperm whales sharp teeth. Plenty of whalers, have fought with sperm whales and lost their hands or lives due to these mean teeth.12. What did Ben Shattucks research in 2012 show?A. Many people had been killed by whales.B. Only a single whale had swallowed people.C. Whales had often been injured b

50、y whalers.D. No whales had been found swallowing people.13. What can we learn about baleen whales in this text?A. They have only a few teeth.B. They like big sea creatures best.C. They have relatively small esophagus.D. They are the largest animals in the world.14. What is the most likely tool for s

51、perm whales to injure humans?A. Their throats.B. The four stomachs.C. The inside of the stomach.D. The mean teeth.15. What may be the best title for the text?A. Will Whales Kill Humans?B. Can Whales Swallow People Alive?C. Do Whales only Eat Small Creatures?D. How Can People Research on Whales?【答案】1

52、2. D 13. C 14. D 15. B【解析】本文是一篇說明文。作者收集資料，列出證據(jù)證明人被大鯨魚吞食后仍能夠存活下來的可能性是沒有的。并且通過分類，從有齒鯨魚和無齒鯨魚這兩種類別來證明，被鯨魚吞食之后無法生存。12. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“He found plenty of reports of whalers who were bitten or injured by the creatures, and several who died after fighting with a whale, but none related to swallowing”句意：他發(fā)現(xiàn)

53、了大量關于被這些生物咬傷或受傷的捕鯨者的報告，還有一些人在與鯨魚搏斗后死亡，但沒有與吞食有關。Ben Shattuck的2012年研究證明了沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)鯨魚活生生吞人的記錄。故選D。【點睛】英語中有種考題的設計，是對原文換表達方法。如小題1中的D項 No whales had been found swallowing people = he had found no whales swallowing people = none of these reports was related to swallowing = He found none related to swallowing?？忌?/p>

54、做題時注意選項和原文的轉換。13. 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第三句“Despite their massive size, baleen whales could never get you into their bellies thanks to their relatively small esophagus (食道)”可知，盡管他們塊頭巨大，由于相對較小的食道須鯨永遠不可能讓你到它們的腹部。故C項“他們有相對較小的食道”正確，故選C。14. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段倒數(shù)第二句“Actually, youre more likely to get eaten or injured as yo

55、u try to make it past the sperm whales sharp teeth.”可知，當你在通過這種the sperm whale鯨魚的牙齒的時候，你很有可能就吃掉或者受了重傷。故the sperm whale鯨魚傷害人的最可能的武器就是它們的牙齒。故選D。15. 標題歸納題。本文第一段引出作者的觀點，被鯨魚吞食后，無法生還，從第二段，到文章最后，作者收集檔案資料證明生還的可能性是沒有的，然后從從有齒鯨魚和無齒鯨魚這兩種類別也證明了生還的的可能性是沒有的。A項意為：鯨魚會殺死人類嗎？B項意為：鯨魚能把人活生生的吞下肚嗎？C項意為：鯨魚只吃小生物嗎？D項意為：人們怎樣對鯨

56、魚展開研究的？故選B。第二節(jié)(共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項，井在答題卡上將該項涂黑。選項中有兩項為多余選項。Nov 21 is United NationsWorld Television Day.
