【答案】(1)B
(2)B
(3)A
(4)C
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了爱斯基摩人描述雪的词语虽然多但并非传言
中的100多个。出现这一想象的原因是1.爱斯基摩人本身就说两种语言,不同的语言就会
有不同的描述。2.词汇方面的融合也使得他们有很多能描述雪的词语。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“HisnumberwasapproximatelyfiveEskimowordsfor
snow,butsomehowthestorywassowidespreadandromanticthatitgotoutofcontroland
grewbiggerandbigger.”可知,本身BenjaminLeeWhorf对于雪的词汇可能就只有5个,但
是故事不断的传播,甚至带着浪漫主义气息,使得故事传播的越来越广泛,故事内容也越
来越夸张。故选B。
(2)考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“JustaswehavetalkedabouthowEnglishandmany
otherlanguagesdevelopedfromacommonlanguagecalledProto-Indo-European…”,作者将英
语和从原始印欧语发展而来的其他语言进行了比较,由此可知采用了比较的方法。故选
B。
(3)考查细节理解。根据第四段中的”Weexpressallthesameideas;wejustdoitalittle
differentlybecauofthewayourlanguageisbuilt.“以及第四段的例子中,不同语言、不同词
汇表达的都是同一个意思,唯一不同的是语言构建方式的不同而已。故选A。
(4)考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“n'tdecide
whatweareabletothinkaboutorarenotabletothinkabout.”语言都是不一样的,而且语言
也决定不了我们能或不能想什么;以及最后一段中的“don'tbelievethepeoplewhotrytotell
youthatEskimoshave100wordsforsnow.”不用相信那些想要告诉你爱斯基摩人有100种描
述雪的词汇,即不用在意究竟有多少词。由此可知,词汇的多少并不影响思想,故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇文化类阅读,考生需
要准确捕捉细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑推理,从而选出正确答案。

【答案】(1)B
(2)A
(3)D
(4)C
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,通过举例,说明了不同的地方有很多地方性的语
言,牛津词典正致力于将这些地方性的语言包含在它的字典之内。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“Anotheristhewordforaswimmingcostume,‘dookers’
or‘duckers’.ItisudinScotland.”dookers或duckers这个词用来指一种泳衣,主要在苏格兰
地区使用,以及常识,苏格兰是英国的一部分,可知,Dookers这个词最可能来自于英国
的一个地区。故选B。
(2)考查推理判断。根据第八段中的“MaieralsosaidthatitcanbedifficultfortheOED's
msaremoreoftenspokenthanwrittendown”Maier说
识别地方性的词汇对于牛津字典的编辑来说是比较困难的。因为这些词经常为口头描述而
没有被记录下来,可以推知搜集各地的地方性语言是一项比较困难的事情。故选A。
(3)考查主旨大意。根据最后一段中的“
lookingformoresuggestions.”和全文可知,本篇文章主要讲述了牛津字典收集地方性词汇的
意义以及进展情况,向大家介绍了这一个项目。故选D。
(4)考查推理判断。纵观全文可知,本文的话题是牛津字典收集地方性词汇,是与文化
中的语言相关的,所以我们可以推知这篇文章可能来源于报纸上的文化专栏部分。故选
C。

【答案】(1)B
(2)C
(3)B
(4)D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一种代享受服务在中国的社交媒体上引起了
很多关注,网上代享受服务越来越受欢迎。
(1)考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“Anewtypeofonlinerviceallowspeopletohire
otherstoeatordrinktheirfavoritetreats,eithertocuretheirboredomorsatisfytheirappetite
withoutthecaloriesthatusuallycomewithit.”一种新型的在线服务允许人们雇佣他人来吃或
喝他们最喜欢的食物,既可以治愈他们的无聊,也可以满足他们的胃口,而不需要那些通
常伴随而来的卡路里。可知,那些试图减肥的人可能会购买这种新型的在线服务,故选
B。
(2)考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“It'snotexactlyaget-rich-quickjob,buttherearequite
arotofpeoplewillingtodoitforthefreetreatsalone.”这并不是一个快速致富的工作,但有相
当一部分人愿意为了免费的款待而去做。可知,许多人愿意接受这份新工作的原因是他们
可以免费享用美食,故选C。
(3)考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“Bubbleteadrinking"isaparticularlypopularrvice,
asthechewytapioca(木薯粉)ballsandpoppingdrinkisalltherageinAsiathedays,butthere
arealsoadsfrompeoplewillingtoeatfriedchickenorhotpotforanyonewillingtopayfor
them.““泡茶喝”是一项特别受欢迎的服务,因为这种耐嚼的木薯球和弹出式饮料最近在亚
洲风靡一时,但是也有一些广告是关于愿意吃炸鸡或火锅的人的。由此推断出,作者在第
四段中提到“泡茶喝”是举出了一个新的网上服务的例子,故选B。
(4)考查主旨大意。最后一段”Thisindulging-by-proxyrvice(代享受服务)hasreceiveda
lotofattentiononsocialmediainChina,withsomepeopledescribingitasthejoboftheir
dreams.“这种代享受服务在中国的社交媒体上引起了很多关注,一些人把它描述为他们梦
想中的工作,是全文的主题句,结合全文内容,可知这篇文章主要讲了网上代享受服务越
来越受欢迎,故选D。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,讲述了儿童成熟的速度是不同,所以作者认为允许
儿童投票的提议并不完全是荒谬的,如果将对未来50年的英国政治生活产生影响,16岁
的孩子应该被授予选举权。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Indeed,maturationhappensatvaryingspeedsacross
differentcategorieswithinthesameindividual,soI'dsayIwaasilyoldenoughtovoteat16,
butnobodyshouldhavegivenmeacreditcarduntilIwas32,andI'vegotthecountycourt
judgmenttoproveit.”可知,作者以他的成熟年龄来证明人们在各个方面的成熟速度是不一
样的。故选C。
(2)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“Nobodywouldsaythatasix-year-oldcouldbeheld
criminallyresponsible,couldbenttowar,couldbecapableofconnt,couldbegiven
responsibilityforanything.”没人说6岁的孩子会被追究刑事责任,会被送上战场,会有同意
的能力,会被赋予任何责任。由此推断,人们拒绝DavidRunciman的提议是因为他们认为
孩子在很多方面还不够成熟,不能被赋予相应的责任。故选A。
(3)考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Runciman'sargumentisthatthisistheonlywayto
rebalancepoliticallife”可知,Runciman论点的基础是,这是重新平衡政治生活的唯一途
径,即政治生活的不平衡导致他提出这个提议。故选D。
(4)考查推理判断。根据倒数第四段中的“Mykid,whenhewassix,madequiteaforceful
caagainstprivateproperty,onthebasisthat,sinceeverybodyneededahou,theyshouldn't
costmoney,,foodshouldbefree.
Itwasakindofpre-Marxcommunism,whereyoulimitthecoverageofthemarkettoonlytho
thingsthatyouwouldn'tmindsomeoneelnothaving.”可知,孩子反对私有财产,因为他们
觉得每个人需要房子,他们不应该花钱买房,此外食物也应该是免费的,这是一种前马克
思共产主义的想法,由此可推测孩子更加公平,更期待理想社会。故选A。
(5)考查推理判断。根据倒数第三段中的“Sogivingkidsthevoteisreallyjustawayofgiving
parentxtravotes.”可知,给孩子投票权其实只是给父母额外投票权的一种方式,由此推断
作者认为给孩子投票权可能会导致投票权的滥用。故选C。
(6)考查主旨大意。根据最后一段“Inshort:no,six-year-oldsshouldnotgetthevote;but
whilewe'rehere,ifanyvotescomeupinthenearfuture,whichwillhaveanimpactonthenext
fivedecadesofBritishpoliticallife,alongsideEUmigrants,16-year-oldscertainlyshouldbe
enfranchid.”可知,作者认为6岁的孩子不应该获得选举权,但是如果将来有任何会影响
英国以及欧盟移民未来50年政治生活的投票出现话,16岁的孩子应该被赋予选举权,由
此可知作者认为儿童被赋予选举权并不完全是荒谬的。故选B。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇应用文,介绍了四部电影。
(1)考查细节理解。根据DoctorSleep部分中的“EwanMcGregorstarsasDannyTorrance,
theboywithpsychicpowersin1980film.”可知EwanMcGregor在电影DoctorSleep扮演
DannyTorrance的角色。故选A。
(2)考查推理判断。根据DoctorSleep部分中的“Youcanexpecttoebloodflowingoutof
liftsinarapidstream,ghostlytwingirlsandheadache-includingcarpetpatterns.”可知电影里有
血腥场景,可怕的双胞胎姐妹和让人头痛的地毯图案,故推测喜欢看恐怖电影的人,会选

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,从小患有色盲的作者,利用颜色传感器来听自己看
不见的颜色,从而形成了作者与众不同的美感。作者认为如果我们扩展我们的感官,我们
将因此扩展我们的知识。
(1)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“Iactuallycomefromaworldwherecolordoesn'texist.
rncompletelycolor-blind.”我来自一个没有颜色的世
界。我生来患有色盲。我生来就是色盲。可推断,患有色盲的人是看不见颜色的。故选
C。
(2)考查句义猜测。根据第四段中的“SinceIstartedtohearcolor,mylifehaschanged
significantly.”自从我开始听到颜色,我的生活发生了巨大的变化;以及空后“Icanheara
Picasso.”我能听见毕加索的声音。可知作者说"艺术画廊变成了音乐厅"意思是对作者来说,
艺术画廊已经变成了各种各样的声音。故选A。
(3)考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“Iactuallycomefromaworldwherecolordoesn'texist.
rncompletelycolor-blind.”我来自一个没有颜色的世
界。我生来患有色盲。我生来就是色盲。可知A选项"尼尔小时候得了一种罕见的疾病。"
错误。故选A。

以我发现现在一直听到颜色是完全正常的。以及文章主要内容为生来是色盲的作者讲述自

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了对动物时间感知的研究。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Accordingtoateamofrearchers,ananimal'sability
toperceive(感知)timeislinkedtotheirpaceoflife.”可知,据一组研究人员称,动物感知时
间的能力与它们的生活节奏有关,由此可知,文中提到的这个研究是关于动物的时间感知

(4)考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的“thetigerbeetle(虎甲虫)runsfasterthanits
eyescankeepup,basicallybecomingblind,whichrequiresittostopperiodicallytore-evaluate
itsprey's(猎物)position”可知,虎甲虫的移动比眼睛快,基本上是盲目的,这就要求它不
时地停下来,重新评估猎物的位置,由此可知,为了抓住移动的猎物,虎甲虫需要不时地
停下来确定猎物的位置,故选C。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道,介绍了7月1日上海市出台的垃圾分类规定,有
望成为我国的一个典范。文章说明了垃圾分类规定的部分内容以及违反者将面临的处罚,
这项政策出台的原因是上海日益增多的垃圾,以及居民们对此政策的看法和态度。

关规定,故第一段的目的是介绍垃圾分类的规则。故选C。
(2)考查词义猜测。根据第二段中的“Theycouldbehitwithfinesofupto200yuan($29).”
他们将面临最高200元(29美元)的罚款。可推测他们此处指违反垃圾分类规定的人们,故
划线单词意思为“违反规定的人”,故选D。
(3)考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“Mostuptaretheshortwindowsforthrowing
trash,typicallyacoupleofhours,morningandevening.”最让人心烦的是扔垃圾的短暂开放
期,通常是早上和晚上的几个小时,可知,扔垃圾的时间很短让居民对这些规定最不满。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,介绍了对信息技术的过分迷恋对国家,对个人,对
慈善事业都会有不利的影响。
(1)细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However,theyhavereakimpacts,astheyresultin
misguideduofscarceresources.”可知,对信息技术的错误判断会导致有限资源的错误使
用,也就是资源的浪费,故选D。
(2)推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Perhapsgivingmoneyfortholessfashionablethings
suchasdiggingwells,extendingelectricitynetworksandmakingmoreaffordablewashing
machineswouldhaveimprovedpeople'slivesmorethangivingeverychildalaptopcomputeror
ttingupInternetcentresinruralvillages,Iamnotsayingthatthothingsarenecessarilymore
important,butmanydonatorshaverushedintofancyprogrammeswithoutcarefullyasssing
therelativelong-termcostsandbenefitsofalternativeusoftheirmoney.”可知,与其给那些
贫困地区孩子笔记本电脑或者建网络中心,还不如给钱打井,铺电网或者生产他们买得起
的洗衣机,这些东西更能改善他们的生活。作者不是说这些东西一定更重要,但是很多捐
赠者没有仔细考虑捐赠的东西的长期成本,因此作者建议捐赠者要考虑接受捐赠的人的实
际情况,而不是一味地追求信息化,故选A。
(3)推理判断题。根据第五段“Inyetanotherexample,afascinationwiththenewhasled
peopletobelievethattherecentchangesinthetechnologiesofcommunicationsand
transportationaresorevolutionarythatnowweliveina"borderlessworld".以及Believingin
suchaworld,manygovernmentshaveputanendtosomeoftheverynecessaryregulationson
cross-borderflowsofcapital,labourandgoods,withpoorresults.”可知,对新东西的迷恋让人
们认为如今通讯技术和交通的变革让我们生活在一个无国界的世界。正是认为我们生活在
这样一个世界,很多政府取消了关于跨国界的资本、劳动力以及商品流动的法律法规,故
选B。
(4)推理判断题。根据第三段“ThefascinationwiththeICT(InformationandCommunication
Technology)revolution,reprentedbytheInternet,hasmadesomerichcountrieswrongly
concludethatmakingthingsisso"yesterday"liefin
"post-industrialsociety"hasledthocountriestoneglecttheirmanufacturingctor(制造业)
withnegativeconquencesfortheireconomies.”可知,对互联网呈现的通讯技术变革的迷恋
让很多富裕国家做出一个错误的结论,制造产品已经过时了,他们应该靠创意生活,因而
忽略了制造业,从而对经济造成不利影响,故可知,传统的技术依然有它的地位,不能被
新兴的信息技术取代,故选B。
