a

local

market.參觀當?shù)厥袌?。故選D項。

（2）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)OceanCity，Maryland標題下Therearemanypet-friendlyhotels，thoughdogsareonlywelcomeonthebeachinthecoldermonthsbetweenOctober1andApril30.（雖然只有在10月1日至4月30日這段寒冷的月份，海灘上才歡迎狗狗，但這里有許多寵物友好型酒店）可知，在大西洋城有寵物友好型酒店。故選A項。

（3）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)BlockIsland，RhodeIsland標題下17milesofbeaches（17英里長的海灘）及HamptonBeach，NewHampshire標題下18-milecoast（18英里長的海岸）及OceanCity，Maryland標題下10milesofbeaches（10英里長的海灘）及CanaveralNationalSeashore，F(xiàn)lorida標題下24milesofbeachhabitat（24英里的海灘棲息地）可知，卡納維拉爾國家海岸是最長的。故選D項。

這是一篇應用文。文章介紹了美國東海岸的幾個最佳景點。

一、速讀全文，了解大意知主題。

閱讀能力一般指閱讀速度和理解能力兩個方面。閱讀速度是閱讀最基本的能力，考生必須在十分有限的時間內(nèi)運用略讀、掃讀、跳讀等技巧快速閱讀，搜尋關鍵詞、主題句，捕捉時空、順序、情節(jié)、人物、觀點，并且理清文章脈絡，把握語篇實質。

二、看題干，帶著問題讀文章。

首先要掌握問題的類型，客觀信息題可以從文章中直接找到答案；而主觀判斷題考查的是對文章的感情基調(diào)等，這類題必須經(jīng)過對作者的態(tài)度、意圖以及對整篇文章進行深一層的推理等。其次，了解試題題干以及各個選項所包含的信息，然后有針對性地對文章進行掃讀，對有關信息進行快速定位。此法加強了閱讀的針對性，提高了做題的準確率。

三、邏輯推理，做好深層理解題。

在實際閱讀中，有時作者并未把意圖說出來，閱讀者要根據(jù)字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關系，研究細節(jié)的暗示，推敲作者的態(tài)度，理解文章的寓義。要求讀者對文字的表面信息進行分析、挖掘和邏輯推理，不能就事論事，以偏概全。推理題在提問中常用的詞有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜詞悟義，掃除閱讀攔路虎。

猜詞是應用英語的重要能力。它不但需要準確無誤地理解上下文，而且要有較大的泛讀量，掌握或認識較多的課外詞匯。我們要學會"順藤摸瓜"，通過構詞，語法，定義，同位，對比，因果，常識，上下文等線索確定詞義。

我們在做完形填空時，首先需要快速的瀏覽全文，把握文章的主旨大意；其次要學會帶著問題到文中相應的地方，通過細節(jié)閱讀來尋找或概括答案；最后理清作者的寫作思路也非常重要；做此類題時，要多注意一些形容詞或動詞的搭配，在平時多積累一些固定搭配。

4~7.【答案】C、D、A、C【解析】（1）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)首段第一二句In

Tennessee，you

—

to

by

performing

random

acts

of

kindness

for

those

in

（在田納西州，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)一個"秘密社團"，由9名自稱為"九位奶奶"的女性組成。它的使命很簡單通過為有需要的人做一些隨機的善舉來傳播快樂。）可知，秘密社團的任務是傳播快樂。故選C。

（2）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后三句They

fondly

recalled

how

MaMaw

Ruth

used

to

and

send

cakes

to

who

had

recently

lost

someone.The

"sisters"

wanted

to

do

good

for

their

community

too.So，the

"secret

society"

of

"The

9

Nanas"

was

born.

（她們深情地回憶起露絲媽媽過去是如何為那些剛剛失去親人的家庭烘烤并寄送一磅蛋糕的。"姐妹們"也想為她們的社區(qū)做點好事。于是，"九位奶奶"的"秘密社團"誕生了。）可知，她們對露絲媽媽的回憶激發(fā)她們?yōu)樯鐓^(qū)做點好事，于是成立了秘密社團。故選D。

（3）詞義猜測題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第二三四句But

by

then，the

husbands

had

started

to

get

suspicious.So

the

9

Nanas

gathered

the

husbands

and

spilled

the

beans.Their

husbands

wanted

in

on

the

fun.

（但到那時，丈夫們已經(jīng)開始懷疑了。于是，奶奶們把丈夫們聚集在一起，她們的丈夫也想加入其中。）可知，她們的丈夫們最初懷疑，但在被聚集一起后就想加入她們，說明奶奶們把秘密社團的事情告訴了他們。故劃線短語spilled

the

beans應為"講出事實"。A．Told

the

truth.講出事實；B．Shared

snacks.共享零食；C．Asked

for

help.請求幫助；D．Made

promises.許下承諾。故選A。

（4）觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)首段第一二句In

（在田納西州，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)一個"秘密社團"，由9名自稱為"九位奶奶"的女性組成。它的使命很簡單通過為有需要的人做一些隨機的善舉來傳播快樂。）可知，奶奶們樂于奉獻，關心他人。A．Practical

（根據(jù)該報告，主要受城市地區(qū)人口增長的推動，在過去40年里，全球用水量以每年約1%的速度增長，預計以類似的速度增長到2050年。）可知，用水量以每年約1%的速度穩(wěn)步增長。故選A。

（這些問題將在周三開幕的為期三天的聯(lián)合國水資源會議上討論。有171個國家，包括100多位部長，以及20多個組織在發(fā)言名單上。）可知，缺水問題已經(jīng)引起了全世界廣泛的關注。故選C。

本文是一篇說明文。首先介紹了全球缺水的現(xiàn)象，然后分析了導致缺水的三個問題，最后這一問題終于引起了全世界的廣泛關注。

一、速讀全文，了解大意知主題。

閱讀能力一般指閱讀速度和理解能力兩個方面。閱讀速度是閱讀最基本的能力，考生必須在十分有限的時間內(nèi)運用略讀、掃讀、跳讀等技巧快速閱讀，搜尋關鍵詞、主題句，捕捉時空、順序、情節(jié)、人物、觀點，并且理清文章脈絡，把握語篇實質。

二、看題干，帶著問題讀文章。

首先要掌握問題的類型，客觀信息題可以從文章中直接找到答案；而主觀判斷題考查的是對文章的感情基調(diào)等，這類題必須經(jīng)過對作者的態(tài)度、意圖以及對整篇文章進行深一層的推理等。其次，了解試題題干以及各個選項所包含的信息，然后有針對性地對文章進行掃讀，對有關信息進行快速定位。此法加強了閱讀的針對性，提高了做題的準確率。

三、邏輯推理，做好深層理解題。

在實際閱讀中，有時作者并未把意圖說出來，閱讀者要根據(jù)字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關系，研究細節(jié)的暗示，推敲作者的態(tài)度，理解文章的寓義。要求讀者對文字的表面信息進行分析、挖掘和邏輯推理，不能就事論事，以偏概全。推理題在提問中常用的詞有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜詞悟義，掃除閱讀攔路虎。

猜詞是應用英語的重要能力。它不但需要準確無誤地理解上下文，而且要有較大的泛讀量，掌握或認識較多的課外詞匯。我們要學會"順藤摸瓜"，通過構詞，語法，定義，同位，對比，因果，常識，上下文等線索確定詞義。

我們在做完形填空時，首先需要快速的瀏覽全文，把握文章的主旨大意；其次要學會帶著問題到文中相應的地方，通過細節(jié)閱讀來尋找或概括答案；最后理清作者的寫作思路也非常重要；做此類題時，要多注意一些形容詞或動詞的搭配，在平時多積累一些固定搭配。

12~15.【答案】C、A、D、B【解析】（1）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中Brainimplants（植入物）cantranslateinternalspeechintoexternalsignals，permittingcommunicationfrompeoplewithdiseasesthatstealtheirabilitytotalkortype.（大腦植入物可以將內(nèi)部語言轉換為外部信號，使患有疾病的人能夠與他人交流，這些疾病竊取了他們說話或打字的能力。）可知，大腦植入物的功能是為了協(xié)助溝通。故選C。

（2）段落大意題。根據(jù)第三段Neural（神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的）signalsassociatedwithwordsaredetectedbyelectrodes（電極）implantedinthebrain.Thesignalscanthenbetranslatedintotext，whichcanbemadeaudible（聽得見的）bycomputerprogramsthatgeneratespeech.Electrodespickedupnervecellsignalsintheposteriorparietalcortex，abrainareainvolvedinspeechandhandmovements.Abrainimplanttheremighteventuallybeusedtocontroldevicesthatcanperformtasksusuallydonebyahandtoo，（與單詞相關的神經(jīng)信號通過植入大腦的電極來檢測。然后，這些信號可以被翻譯成文本，這些文本可以通過生成語音的計算機程序發(fā)出聲音。電極接收到后頂葉皮層的神經(jīng)細胞信號，這是大腦中與語言和手部運動有關的區(qū)域。那里的大腦植入物可能最終會被用來控制那些可以執(zhí)行通常由手完成的任務的設備，）可知，第3段主要告訴我們關于這個系統(tǒng)的"工作原理"。故選A。

（3）推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的Tobeuseful，thecurrenttechniqueswillneedtogetfasterandmoreaccurate."Thesearestillearlydaysforthetechnologies，"Wandeltsays."Progresswillbepossibleonlywiththehelpofpeoplewhovolunteerforthestudies.Thefieldwillcontinuetobenefitfromtheincrediblepeoplewhoparticipateinclinicaltrials.""（為了發(fā)揮作用，目前的技術需要變得更快、更準確。Wandelt說："這些技術還處于早期階段。"。"只有在自愿參與研究的人的幫助下，才能取得進展。該領域將繼續(xù)受益于參與臨床試驗的令人難以置信的人。）可知，最后一段講述的是"它目前沒有多少實際用途。"故選D。

（4）目的意圖題。根據(jù)第二段中Ourdevicepredictsinternalspeechdirectly，allowingthepatienttojustfocusonsayingawordinsidetheirheadandtransformitintotext，（我們的設備直接預測內(nèi)部語音，讓病人只專注于在他們的腦海里說一個詞，然后把它轉換成文本，）可知，文章介紹一種新的設備?？茖W家已經(jīng)發(fā)明了直接從大腦中"讀"單詞的方法。大腦植入物可以將內(nèi)部語言轉換為外部信號，使患有疾病的人能夠與他人交流，這些疾病竊取了他們說話或打字的能力。研究的新結果提供了額外的證據(jù)，證明大腦植入物在恢復失去的溝通方面具有非凡的潛力。所以文章的目的是"介紹一種設備。"A．To

describe

a

trial.描述一場審判；B．To

introduce

a

device.介紹一種設備；C．To

advertise

a

product.為產(chǎn)品做廣告；D．To

explain

a

concept.解釋一個概念。故選B。

本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹一種新的設備?？茖W家已經(jīng)發(fā)明了直接從大腦中"讀"單詞的方法。大腦植入物可以將內(nèi)部語言轉換為外部信號，使患有疾病的人能夠與他人交流，這些疾病竊取了他們說話或打字的能力。研究的新結果提供了額外的證據(jù)，證明大腦植入物在恢復失去的溝通方面具有非凡的潛力。
