B.Patientandsensitive.C.Attractiveandhumorous. D.Talentedanddetermined.解析推理判斷題。通過她在電影中的表現(xiàn)(尤其第一段第五行的敘述)我們可知秀蘭·鄧波兒的才華；根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二行的敘述可知她的決心。A項中的generous沒有體現(xiàn)；C項中的humorous在文中也沒依據(jù)可尋；B項更是如此。答案DPassage7(2014·黃岡期末)話題：巧克力詞數(shù)：398Whenmostofushearthewordchocolate，theverbthatcomestomindisprobably“eat”，not“drink”，andthemostproperadjectivewouldseemtobe“sweet”.Butforabout90percentofchocolate'slonghistory，itwasstrictlyabeverage(飲料)，andsugardidn'thaveanythingtodowithit.TheOriginofChocolateManymodernhistorianshaveestimatedthatchocolatehasbeenaroundforabout2000years，butrecentresearchsuggeststhatitmaybeevenolder.InthebookTheTrueHistoryofChocolate，authorsSophieandMichaelCoeprovethattheearliestlinguistic(語言學的)evidenceofchocolateconsumptiondatesbackthreeorevenfourthousandyears.ValuableandFashionableChocolateBeverageIt'shardtodiscoverexactlywhenchocolatewasborn，butit'sclearthatitwascherishedfromthestart.Forseveralcenturiesinpre－modernLatinAmerica，cacaobeanswereconsideredvaluableenoughtouseascurrency.100beanscouldpurchaseagoodturkeyhen，accordingtoa16th－centuryAztecdocument.Sweetenedchocolatedidn'tappearuntilEuropeansdiscoveredtheAmericasandsampled(品嘗)thenativecuisine.Chocolatedidn'tsuittheforeigners'tasteatfirst—onedescribeditinhiswritingsas“abitterdrinkforpigs”—butoncemixedwithhoneyorcanesugar，itquicklybecamepopularthroughoutSpain.Bythe17thcentury，chocolatewasafashionabledrinkthroughoutEurope，believedtohavenutritious，medicinalfunctions.Butitremainedlargelyaprivilegeoftherichuntiltheinventionofthesteamenginemademassproductionpossibleinthelate1700s.TheBirthofSolidChocolateIn1828，aDutchchemistfoundawaytomakepowderedchocolate.Hisproductbecameknownas“Dutchcocoa”，anditsoonledtothecreationofsolidchocolate.In1847，JosephFrycreatedthefirstmodernchocolatebar.By1868，alittlecompanycalledCadburywasmarketingboxesofchocolatecandiesinEngland.Milkchocolatehitthemarketafewyearslater.ProsperousChocolateIndustryInAmerica，chocolatewassovaluedduringtheRevolutionaryWarthatitwasusedinsteadofwages.Evennow，statisticsshowthatthehumblecacaobeanisstillapowerfuleconomicforce.Chocolatemanufacturingisamorethan4－billion－dollarindustryintheUnitedStates，andtheaverageAmericaneatsatleasthalfapoundofthestuffpermonth.【語篇導讀】本文是說明文。講述了巧克力的簡單歷史。1.Theearliestchocolatewasmostprobably.A.adish B.adrink C.abar D.acandy解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)首段可知，人們普遍認為巧克力是用來吃的，而且是很甜的，然而巧克力在發(fā)展史上大部分時間是一種苦澀的飲料。故選B。答案B2.Itcanbeinferredfromthepassagethat.A.thehistoryofchocolateisatmost4，000years.B.peoplearoundtheworldcouldbuythingswithchocolate.C.chocolatewaswellpaidattentiontosinceitwasborn.D.anAmericanatleasteatsapoundofchocolatepermonth.解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段首句“...butit'sclearthatitwascherishedfromthestart”可知巧克力從誕生起就受到人們的珍愛。故選C。答案C3.WhydidchocolatesuittheSpanish'stastesoquickly?A.Becausechocolatewassotastyandbitter.B.Becausechocolatewasbelievedtobeasourceofnutrition.C.Becausechocolatewassweetenedwithhoneyorcanesugar.D.Becausechocolatebecameafashionablebeverage.解析推理判斷題。由第五段的第二句“...butoncemixedwithhoneyorcanesugar，itquicklybecamepopularthroughoutSpain”可知巧克力飲料混合蜂蜜或蔗糖變甜以后，就迅速受到西班牙人的歡迎。故選C。答案C4.Whichoneshowsthecorrectorderaccordingtothetimeoftheirappearing?A.chocolatebeverage→chocolatebar→chocolatecandies→milkchocolateB.chocolatebar→chocolatebeverage→chocolatecandies→milkchocolateC.chocolatebar→chocolatecandies→milkchocolate→chocolatebeverageD.chocolatebeverage→chocolatecandies→chocolatebar→milkchocolate解析推理判斷題。由文章敘述巧克力的歷史過程可知巧克力飲料是最早的形式；再根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中三個事件發(fā)生的時間和最后一句可知A項是按時間順序敘述巧克力的演變史。答案APassage8(2014·濟寧一模)話題：蝙蝠詞數(shù)：297Thesunissettingonasummernight.Attheentranceofadeep，darkcave，afewbatsflyout.Withinafewminutes，millionsandmillionsofbatsarepouringoutofthecave.Soundslikeascaryhorrormovie?Believeitornot，thisscenetakesplaceallsummerlong，atBrackenCaveinTexas，where20millionbatscomeouttofeedoninsectseverynight.“Itismagical，”saysJimKennedyofBatConservationInternationalinTexas.“Itisoneofthemostimpressiveanimalmovementsontheplanet.”EveryMarchorApril，Mexicanfree－tailedbatsmigrateupto1，600kilometersfromtheirwinterhomeinMexicototheirAmericanhomeinTexas，wheretheyraisetheiryoung.Soonaftertheyarrive，eachmothergivesbirthtoonebaby.Asmanyas500babybatscrowdinto30cubiccentimetersofspace，andallthosebodiescreatenicewarmtemperaturestokeepthemcozyandcomfortable.Ifyouhaveeverlostsightofyourparentsinacrowdedplayground，youmaybewonderinghowmotherbatsrecognizetheirchildren.Theyusetheirsenseofsmelltotellwhichbabyistheirswhenitistimeforthebabiestohavemilk.Whentwentymillionbatsflyoutofonecaveopening，theymakeacolumnsothickthattheyshowupontheradaratthenearbyairport.Itcantakethreehoursforallofthemtogetoutfromthecave.“Youcanfeelthebreezefromtheirwings，andseetheplantswaving，”saysKennedy.“Themovementofallthosewingsmakesaveryrelaxingsoftsound.I'vealwaysthoughtitwouldmakeagreatrelaxationmusictohelpyougotosleep.Somuchforbatsbeingscary！”【語篇導讀】文章主要講述了在美國得克薩斯州遷徙后的蝙蝠出行捕食，撫育幼仔的情景，并告訴我們蝙蝠并非令人恐怖的動物。1.Thescenedescribedinthefirstparagraphtakesplacein.A.amovie B.acave C.Mexico D.theUS解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“Texas”或第三段中“theirAmericanhomeinTexas”可知選項D正確。這一幕并非發(fā)生在洞穴內(nèi)，故排除B。答案D2.Whatmakesthesceneso“impressive”？A.Theentranceofadeep，darkcave.B.Thebatsfeedingoninsectsatnight.C.Thehugenumberofbatsflyingtogether.D.Ittakesplaceallsummerlong.解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第二行中“20millionbatscomeouttofeedoninsectseverynight”可知答案。答案C3.BothParagraphs3and4aremainlyabout.A.whenandwherethebatsmigrateB.howyoungbatsareraisedC.whybabybatscrowdtogetherD.howmotherbatsfindtheirchildren解析推理判斷題。選項C是第3段內(nèi)容；選項D是第4段的內(nèi)容。但兩者間有交叉點，即蝙蝠幼仔被養(yǎng)育的方式。答案B4.Theunderlinedword“breeze”inthelastparagraphisclosestinmeaningto.A.lightwind B.hotairC.strongsmell D.blacksmoke解析詞義猜測題。根據(jù)該詞后的“fromtheirwings”及“theplantswaving”可知breeze的含義(微風)。答案A5.WhatdoesKennedymeanby“Somuchforbatsbeingscary！”？A.Somuchspaceisbeingoccupiedbybats!B.Batsaresomuchmorescarythanbefore!C.Neversaybatsarefrighteningagain!D.Somanybatsarebeingscaredaway!解析推理判斷題。通讀全文尤其是最后一段，蝙蝠會給我們一些放松與美好，可知作者對蝙蝠恐怖一說是持否定的，故選C?！癝omuchforbatsbeingscary”意為“蝙蝠恐怖的說法就到此為止吧”。答案CPassage9(2014·臨沂模擬)話題：Anactofkindness詞數(shù)：292MydaughterandIcollectedtheemptycansandbottlesinourhomethismorning.Wehad6fullgarbagebagslatersoIknewwewouldbespendingabitmoreoftimeattherecyclingcenter.Whenwegotthere，amanandhiskidswerealsodoingthemorningrecyclingandwereusingtwoofthefourmachinestorecycletheirplasticandcans.Luckily，wewereabletousethe2remainingmachines.Ofcourse，therewereothersthatcame，butwhentheysawthetwofamilieswithgarbagebagsfullofrecycledthings，theyquicklyleft.However，onewomancameinwithjust5cansandlookedasifshewasinahurry.SoIstoppedwhatIwasdoingandletherintorecyclehercans.Ofcourse，shewasgrateful，anditfeltgoodtolethergoaheadofme.Butthatwasnotthewholestory.MydaughterandIcontinuedtoworkthroughthebags，buttheplasticrecyclingmachinestoppedworkingbecauseitwasfull.Mydaughterwasleftwithnothingtodo.Theotherfamilywasstillusingtheothertwoplasticrecyclingmachines，butitseemedthattheywerealmostdone.Ijusttoldmydaughterwewouldhavetowaituntiltheyweredone.Butthemanoftheotherfamilycamethroughwithanotheractofkindness.Heofferedtoletusgoaheadofhim.Iwasreallysurprised，becausewehadmorethan5bottles，buthedidn'tseemtomind.Ihappilyacceptedit.Itwasgreattogiveandthentogetanactofkindnessinreturn.Itwassmall.Ididn'texpectit，butitsurelybrightenedupmyday.【語篇導讀】我與女兒去回收站加工處理生活廢品。那兒共有4臺機器，我和女兒各用一臺。不一會兒一個行色匆匆的女士趕來，看她著急，我將自己的機器讓與她。不曾想由于東西多，女兒的機器“罷工”了。這時，另一家人向我們伸出了“禮讓之手”。1.WhatcanwelearnfromParagraph1?A.Thewriterdidcollectingeverymorning.B.Thewriterusuallyhad6bagsofcanstorecycle.C.Therewerefourrecyclingmachinesinall.D.Mostpeopledidrecyclinginthemorning.解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段的最后兩句可知回收機器共有4臺。答案C2.Whydidthewriterletthewomanrecyclehercansfirst?A.Becausethereweremanyotherfamiliesthere.B.Becausethewomanseemedtobeinahurry.C.Becausethewriterwantedtohearastory.D.Becausethewomanwasverygrateful.解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“However，onewoman...SoIstopped...”可知原因為B。答案B3.Whycouldn'tthewriterfinishherrecyclingintime?A.Becauseherdaughter'smachinestoppedworking.B.Becausetheotherfamilywasstillusingthemachines.C.Becauseshelettheotherfamilyusehermachinefirst.D.Becauseshehelpedrecycletheotherfamily'sbagsfirst.解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的第一句我們可知答案。答案A4.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“it”inParagraph3referto？A.Thekindness.
