题，而前文提到他连自己的书写都读不出来，故可推断出他的学习反映不出他的能力，故ability(能力)符合语境。24．选C　上一句提到当西蒙的妈妈进入房间时，我的手掌心出汗了。她亲吻我的两颊，是我意想不到的事情，也就是我完全“没有做好准备”(unprepared)。desperate“绝望的，不顾一切的”；responsible“负责任的”；unsuitable“不合适的”。由语境可知C项正确。25．选A　上一句提到西蒙妈妈的话让我吃惊得说不出话来。空格所在句句意：因为我，西蒙才变成了另外一个人。由语境“西蒙变成了另外一个人”可知，此处表示西蒙的变化是“因为我”(becauseofme)。inspiteof“尽管”；apartfrom“除……之外(还)”；asfor“至于”。26．选A　由空后的“hehadbeguntomakefriends”可知，在我的影响下，西蒙开始交朋友，那么西蒙对妈妈说的是喜欢(love)我，而非envy(妒忌)，please(使满意)，criticize(批评)。27．选C　此处表示“在他人生的12年里，他最近第一次在朋友家里待了一下午”。西蒙的变化是在我当他的老师以后，“最近”(recently)才发生的事，故C项正确。gradually“逐渐地”；constantly“经常地”；obviously“显而易见地”。n28．选A　由后面语境可知，我的一句话鼓励了西蒙，既然西蒙的妈妈感激我，那么从常理推断，肯定是我培养了她儿子好的性格。即“自尊”(selfrespect)。selfdoubt“自我怀疑”，selfpity“自怜”，selfdefense“自卫”，均不合语境。29．选C　由上文可知，西蒙妈妈的举止和她说的话完全出乎我的意料，因此，我惊呆了，约半个小时的时间都在疑惑(wonder)刚刚发生的事。imagine“想象”；observe“观察，观测”；regret“遗憾，后悔”。30．选B　前面西蒙的妈妈提到，我改变了西蒙，由“我想知道到底发生了什么事”可以推断，此处指“我对西蒙的改变起了这么大的作用，我甚至都不知道”。对未知或者奇怪事情的发生进行强调用even(甚至)，故B项正确。31．选B　前文提到我甚至都不知道我对西蒙有那么大的影响，而此句用finally提示我最终还是记起了几个月以前某一天发生的事情，故remember(记得，记起)正确。expect“期望，预料”，believe“相信”，accept“接受”，均不合语境。32．选D　一些学生在全班同学面前作报告。givereports“作报告”，为固定搭配。“作报告”是我最终记起的一件事，呼应了上题。故D项正确。write“写”，review“复习”，edit“编辑”，均不合语境。33．选A　由空后的“toencouragehertoraisehervoice”可知，珍妮是在轻声地(quietly)作报告，故A项正确。repeatedly“重复地”，quickly“迅速地”，firmly“坚定地”，均不合语境。34．选C　前一句提到，西蒙是这方面的专家，空格句应有“你只要让他信服就好了”的意味；也就是说，他是唯一一个你得使其信服的人，故选only。lucky“幸运的”，lonely“孤独的”，likely“可能的”，均不合语境。35．选D　前面提到，珍妮说话声音小，自然是坐在教室后面的同学听不见，故D项back符合语境。36．选B　这就是西蒙变化的转折点。他坐得更直了，注意力更集中了，微笑也多了，变得快乐了。与situpstraighter,paymoreattention,becomehappy并列的只能是表示积极意义的smile，而非sleep(睡觉)，shout(大声喊)，quarrel(吵架)，故B项正确。37．选D　前面提到，我让珍妮说话大点声，因为坐在后面的同学听不见，而恰好(happen)西蒙就是坐在最后一排的最后一名同学。happentobe“碰巧是”。38．选B　由前面的语境可知，无意当中的一句表扬的话(Simon'stheexpertonthis.)改变了一个孩子。也就是说，那天最需要表扬(praise)的孩子就是坐在最后的那个。故B项正确。39．选C　前面那个故事给了我多年教学生涯中最有价值的(valuable)一个经验。由语境可知，这件事情让我受益颇多，自然是“有价值的”(valuable)，故C项正确。difficult“困难的”；painful“痛苦的”；enjoyable“令人愉快的”。n40．选A　并列连词and后面是positively，那么与之并列的肯定是正向的东西，即：西蒙改变的故事来得早(early)，而且产生了积极的影响。语篇解读：淘气的汤姆被唤去换衣服，准备去主日学校。他马虎地洗脸穿衣，这引起了细心的玛丽的不满……41．选C　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“pouredoutthewaterontheground,gently,andthenenteredthekitchenandbegantowipehisfacediligentlyonthetowelbehindthedoor”可知C项正确。42．选B　推理判断题。根据第四段中的“forthecleanterritorystoppedshortathischinandhisjaws,likeamask;belowandbeyondthislinetherewasadarkexpanseofunirrigatedsoilthatspreaddownwardinfrontandbackwardaroundhisneck”可推断，他没洗脖子。43．选B　推理判断题。根据第四段中的“hisfloodedhairwasneatlybrushed,anditsshortcurlsformedintoanelegantandregulargeneraleffect...theyweresimplycalledhis‘otherclothes’”可知答案应选B。44．选A　句意理解题。根据画线部分的上一段中的“helosthistemperandsaidhewasalwaysbeingmadetodoeverythinghedidn'twanttodo”可知应选A。45．选D　推理判断题。根据最后一段的最后一句中的“aplacethatTomhatedwithhiswholeheart;butMarywasfondofit”可知，人物、地点均转移至学校了，故在学校发生的事可能就是接下来要叙述的。语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。一场肆虐的火灾吞噬了很多人的家园，但这场火灾是如何发生的呢？三名二十多岁的人该对此事负责。46．选C　推理判断题。第一段介绍的是消防队员基本上控制了火情，这场严重的火灾使该地区的很多人无家可归，当前的火情形势以及持续的干旱天气意味着火灾形势依然很严峻。故第一段概述了火灾事件的主要内容。47．选D　细节理解题。根据文章首句尤其是“hadlargelytamedatowelofflame”可知，火情很严重，火焰蹿得很高，故选D。48．选D　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“irresponsiblystartingthefirebytossingpaperintoacampfireintheAngelesNationalForest”可知答案。49．选C　词义猜测题。根据画线词后面一句中的“GlendoraresidentswereallowedtoreturnhomeThursdayevening”可知，人们“逃离”了火灾。50．选B　细节理解题。由文章最后一段中的“werearrestedonsuspicionofirresponsiblystartingthefire...havebeenanaccident”可知答案。语篇解读：许多人注重身体健康，但很少有人知道，大脑健康也可通过锻炼来提高。事实上，你可以像锻炼肌肉那样锻炼你的大脑。n51．选A　主旨大意题。根据第一段和最后一段的首句即可判断出，A项最适合作本文的标题。52．选B　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Toimproveyourbrain,youcan'tsimplyrepeatthesameexercisesoverandover.”及该段最后一句可知应选B。53．选C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Lumosity,whichemploysateamofinhouseneuroscientistswithdegrees...workwithanexperiencedteamofgamedesigners.Togetherthey'vedevelopedafun,effectiveonlinebraintrainingprogram”可知，选项C正确。54．选D　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“evidencesuggestingthatLumositymaybebeneficialtonormal,healthyadults”可知，研究中的数据就是证据，答案应为D。55．选A　文章出处题。根据文章最后两句尤其是“There'sasmallfeetousethefullproduct,ornewuserscanstartafreetrial.”可知应选A。语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。世界上自行车共享的城市有哪些？作为自行车王国的中国做得又怎么样呢？56．选C　句意理解题。根据第一段中的“itwastreatedasanationaleventandeveninternationalmediatooknotice”可知，自行车共享在美国很受欢迎，故选C。57．选A　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“whichintroducedacoinoperatedsystemin1995calledBycyklen”以及第三段首句可知，1995年时自行车采用的是硬币操作系统，1998年时才可以用卡。因此可知1995年在法国城市雷恩人们是通过投币来使用自行车共享的。58．选D　细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Theworldwideleaderinbikesharing,asmeasuredbythenumberofbikes,isChina.”可得出答案。59．选C　推理判断题。根据第六段中的“differentcitiesaretryingdifferentwaystomakebikesharingwork”可知C项正确。60．选B　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“you'llseewhatjustmaybethebestbikeshareintheworld”可知，杭州的自行车共享是世界上做得最好的，故它是一个最成功的例子，选B项。61．选D　推理判断题。第四段中“Becauseofthem,awildpopulationof800－1,000individualsexiststoday.”的意思是：正是因为它们(18只幸存的雪貂)，这个群落的数量达到了八百到一千只，才能够在野外得以存在。62．选B　细节理解题。根据最后一段“ScientistsrealizedthatDDT,achemicalusedtokillpests,wasdestroyingeggshells.”可知，游隼数量急剧减少是因为DDT毁坏了它们的蛋壳。n63．选A　推理判断题。四种动物的拯救都是通过人工养殖的办法，由此可以证明这种办法是行之有效的。64．选A　细节理解题。根据第二段的“thoughitisstillinseriouscondition”可知，加州秃鹰仍然有灭绝的危险。野生黑足雪貂有近千只，文中并未提到它们濒临灭绝；灰狼和游隼都已经不在濒危动物列表上了。故选A。65．选D　主旨大意题。根据第一段内容可知，本文主要介绍了四种被拯救的濒危动物。
