參考答案1．答案：D解析：根據(jù)AmericanSignLanguage（ASL）部分中可知，Mr.Wilson會教孩子們學(xué)習(xí)手語以便同聽障人士交流。2．答案：B解析：根據(jù)EnglishSkillsforHighSchool部分和SectionB，再結(jié)合Morningsessions中的SectionB:9:20-10:20可知，B項為正確答案。3．答案：D解析：根據(jù)ComputerSkillstraining部分中的Cost:$240和Bookfee:$30可知，想要學(xué)習(xí)計算機科學(xué)這一課程的學(xué)生需付270美元。4．答案：A解析：根據(jù)第二段中的第一句可知，顯然當(dāng)時作者一家離開得很匆忙。5．答案：C解析：根據(jù)第四段中可知，當(dāng)時的作者感到很絕望。6．答案：D解析：根據(jù)最后一段中的最后一句可知，本文應(yīng)該是寫于作者一家重新安定下來之后。7．答案：B解析：根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知，一場野火把作者的家燒成灰燼，但作者一家還是扛過了這場災(zāi)難，B項最能體現(xiàn)作者一家的經(jīng)歷，適合作為本文標(biāo)題。8．答案：A解析：根據(jù)該劃線詞后面的withexhaustedfishstocks魚類資源枯竭，可知barren的意思是"資源枯竭的"。9．答案：B解析：第三段中提到，AntonioVerdi的手工捕魚方式對自然友好，因為破壞生態(tài)系統(tǒng)可能會減少漁民的收入，這表明他的方法對生態(tài)系統(tǒng)的破壞小。10．答案：C解析：第四段中提到Duetothepresenceoftheunderwatersculptures，somespeciesnotseeninalongwhilesuchasgroupersandlobstershaverejoinedthewaters，這表明之前消失很久的海洋物種已經(jīng)回歸到了這片水域中。11．答案：D解析：文章中提到，AntonioVerdi的手工捕魚方式對生態(tài)系統(tǒng)的破壞小，他還通過創(chuàng)建人工礁石和雕塑公園來保護海床和海洋生物，這表明捕魚活動應(yīng)該考慮對海洋生態(tài)系統(tǒng)的影響，以確保其健康和可持續(xù)性。12．答案：D解析：第一段中的….incrediblylightweightsolarcellsthatcanbeplacedonavarietyofsurfaces和第二段中的…appliedtomanydifferentsurfaces，….theyarecapableofproducingapproximately18timesmorepowerperkilogramcomparedtotraditionalsolarpanels說明這種太陽能電池使用起來非常靈活，電池的容量很大。13．答案：C解析：第三段中提到，aproblemthatresearchersareaddressingbeforethesesolarcellscanbemass-producedishowtoprotectthesolarcellsfromoxygenandmoisture（濕氣）.14．答案：B解析：根據(jù)第三段中的addingsuchalayerwouldremovethemajoradvantageofthenewultra-thinsolarcells可知，添加一層玻璃會削弱新型超薄電池目前的主要優(yōu)勢，因此玻璃不適合用來做保護層。15．答案：C解析：最后一段提到了澳大利亞在太陽能技術(shù)方面也有創(chuàng)新研發(fā)，比如用新型便攜式太陽能電池給Tesla車輛充電。16．答案：D;B;E;F;G解析：①根據(jù)設(shè)空前的Therearethreecommontypesofvalleys:V-shapedvalleys，U-shapedvalleysandflatflooredvalleys可知山谷的形狀各不相同。山谷通常是陡峭的峽谷或廣闊的平原。②V形山谷是一個狹窄的山谷，側(cè)面陡峭，從橫截面看類似于字母"V"。它們由強大的溪流形成，隨著時間的推移，它們通過一種稱為下切的過程切入巖石。這些山谷形成于山區(qū)或高原地區(qū)，溪流處于"年輕"階段。選項B指的是在這個階段，溪流迅速沿著陡坡流下。③U形谷是輪廓類似于字母"U"的谷。它們的特點是陡峭的側(cè)面在谷壁的底部彎曲，U形山谷是由冰川侵蝕形成的。選項E說明了U形谷的特點。④第三種山谷稱為平地山谷，是世界上最常見的類型。這些山谷與V形山谷一樣，由溪流形成，設(shè)空前說的是相同點，選項F說的是不同點。⑤本段總結(jié)了人和山谷的關(guān)系。設(shè)空后的they指的是valleys。自人類發(fā)展開始，山谷就因為靠近河流而成為人們的重要場所。河流使流動更容易，還提供了水、良好的土壤和魚類等食物等資源。山谷本身也很有幫助，因為如果聚落模式定位正確，谷壁通常會阻擋風(fēng)和其他惡劣天氣。在地形崎嶇的地區(qū)，山谷也為定居提供了安全的場所，使入侵變得困難。17．答案：A解析：結(jié)合語境，此處指"自行車騎行的持久快樂喚起了我內(nèi)心的童真"。短語bringout意指使顯現(xiàn);激發(fā)。checkout調(diào)查;查看;takeout"帶某人出去";pullout"使擺脫困境"。18．答案：B解析：此處動詞表示情感，與前文的"痛苦"形成對比，"小時候在操場上玩的單杠和秋千讓我感到痛苦""騎自行車不一樣，現(xiàn)在依然讓我感到興奮激動"，所以選B。wearsb.（out）"使筋疲力盡";bothersb."使煩惱";sheltersb."保護"。19．答案：B解析：此題考查搭配，acurefortheblues"治療抑郁癥的療法"，這里指"騎自行車通勤已經(jīng)成為一種擺脫擁擠的公共交通帶來的壓抑情緒的方法"。barrier"障礙"。20．答案：C解析：結(jié)合上下文語境，這題的關(guān)鍵是情感的把握。"無論下雨、放晴、下雪還是刮風(fēng)，我都欣然接受身體和精神上的挑戰(zhàn)。""welcome"表示"欣然接納"，而不只是遇到（encounter），"經(jīng)歷（undergo）"或遭受（suffer）。這一句也與文章第一句Iloveridingabiketoworknomattertheweather相呼應(yīng)。21．答案：D解析：根據(jù)下文可以推測，這里指"溫哥華夜晚濕冷天氣中的騎行會因為見到松鼠、鹿和浣熊而增添樂趣"。sightingsofsquirrels，deerandraccoons指向旅途中的beauty，brighten指"增添樂趣"。impressedby"對…印象深刻";surroundedby"被包圍";disturbedby"被打擾"。22．答案：A解析：結(jié)合下文的"evolvedfromannoyedtooptimistic"可以推斷，這里作為本段的總起句指騎行可以幫助他平復(fù)情緒，讓他變得"平靜（calmness）"。23．答案：D解析：在騎行過程中我面對并思考人生中的挑戰(zhàn)，所以選D。trials"考驗";breaks"短暫休息";routines常規(guī)。24．答案：D解析：一路騎行到達目的地時，我的情緒很有可能已經(jīng)從憤怒轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)闃酚^。destination指向行程的終點。peak"頂峰";bottom"底部";limit"極限"。25．答案：A解析：參見上一題的解析。此處要結(jié)合前文angry和mad兩個詞都指向"生氣;懊惱"的情緒。fromannoyedtooptimistic與6題的"calmness（平靜）"形成閉環(huán)。shocked"震驚的";frustrated"沮喪的";embarrassed"尷尬的"。26．答案：C解析：根據(jù)下文，此處指"我想把騎行的快樂傳遞給兒子"。Passonsth.tosb表示傳遞;carryon"繼續(xù)做;堅持干";takeon"呈現(xiàn)，具有（特征）";insiston"堅持做"。27．答案：A解析：結(jié)合語境可知，此處指"我?guī)е鴥鹤映跗谔剿黩T行快樂的經(jīng)歷中包括（有一次）他坐在自行車掛車?yán)铮嬖V我騎得太慢了，路太顛簸"。involved"包括";occupied"占據(jù);使忙于做某事";sparedsb.（from...）"使某人免得麻煩;使逃脫"risked"冒險"。28．答案：D解析：結(jié)合后文的"Yourlegsaren'tmovingveryfast."推測"爸爸你一定是累了"。focused"專注于";stressed"焦慮的";frozen"嚇呆的"。29．答案：B解析：根據(jù)上下文語境，此處意指自行車騎行不僅僅是一種交通方式;它還是對我們?nèi)谌胙赝撅L(fēng)景的一種邀約，讓我們?nèi)ジ惺?、體驗旅程，而不只是匆匆趕往目的地。notsimply"不僅僅"。apparently"顯然";directly"直接";extremely"極度;非常"。30．答案：C解析：參見上一題的解析。invitation在這兒是"邀約"。struggle"掙扎，努力";urge"強烈的欲望";must"必不可少的事"。31．
