本文是一篇應用文，主要介紹了大學河瀑分校學生托管職位招聘的詳細信息。

閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎上的邏輯推理能力，要求考生根據文章所述事件的邏輯關系，對未說明的趨勢或結局作出合理的推斷；或根據作者所闡述的觀點理論，對文章未涉及的現象、事例給以解釋。考生首先要仔細閱讀短文，完整了解信息，準確把握作者觀點。

4~7.【答案】C、A、A、B【解析】（1）推理判斷題。根據第一段ThezooinEnshi，HubeiProvince，iscalledthe"world'sloneliestzoo"becausefewpeoplevisitit.（湖北恩施的動物園被稱為"世界上最孤獨的動物園"，因為很少有人去參觀。）可知這個動物園被稱為"世界上最孤獨的動物園"是因為沒有多少人參觀這個動物園。故選C項。

（2）推理判斷題。根據第二段LuoYingjiubegankeepinganimalsathomeinthe1980s.Afterseeingwildanimalskeptincagesforsaleatamarket，Luoboughtthemandtookthemhometogivethemmedicaltreatment.Hereleased（釋放）thoseabletoliveontheirownintothewildandcontinuedtoraisethosethatcouldnotliveindependently.（羅英九從上世紀80年代開始在家里養動物。在市場上看到籠子里出售的野生動物后，羅把它們買了下來，帶回家治療。他將那些能夠獨立生活的放歸野外，并繼續飼養那些不能獨立生活的）可知，最初，羅是從市場上買回動物。故選A項。

（3）細節理解題。根據第二段的最后一句Thebusinesslaterbecameworsebecausevisitorswerenotinterestedinthezoo's"old，weak，sickanddisabled"animals.（后來生意變得更糟了，因為游客對動物園里那些"老弱病殘"的動物不感興趣）可知，羅的生意變得更糟，是因為游客對動物園里那些"老弱病殘"的動物不感興趣。故選A項。

（4）觀點態度題。根據第三段Usinghispension（退休金）tooperatethezoo，Mr.Luorefusedtolistentootherpeople'sadvicetocloseit."Itisnotjustazoo；itprovidesthehabitatfortheanimals，"heexplained."Ifthezooisclosed，wherecantheseanimalsgo？Theycannotevensurviveinthewild."（羅用自己的養老金經營動物園，拒絕聽取其他人關閉動物園的建議。"這不僅僅是一個動物園；它為動物提供了棲息地，"他解釋道。"如果動物園關閉了，這些動物能去哪里？它們甚至無法在野外生存"）推知，羅救助動物的決心非常堅定；和第四段Asheoperatesthezoo，hekeepsonrescuinganimals.Ablackbearwithonepawinjuredwassaved17yearsago.AdognamedDianziwassavedwhenitsformerownerplannedtoabandon（遺棄）it.Amonkeythathasbeenatthezoofornearly30yearsisalmostblindbecauseofcameraflashesfromvisitorswhotookphotos.Forthoseanimalsthatdied，Luoburiedthemonthenearbymountain.（在經營動物園的同時，他不斷地拯救動物。17年前，一只爪子受傷的黑熊獲救。一只名叫'點子'的狗在它的前主人打算拋棄它時獲救了。一只在動物園生活了近30年的猴子幾乎失明，因為拍照的游客的相機閃光燈。對于那些死去的動物，羅把它們埋在附近的山上）推知，羅是個熱心的人。A．Adventurousandhumorous.冒險又幽默的；B．Warm-heartedanddetermined.熱心而堅定的；C．Creativeandoutgoing.有創造力和外向的；D．Generousandfunny.大方又風趣的。故選B項。

本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了一位老人救助動物、經營一家小型動物園的故事。

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、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等，這類題必須經過對作者的態度、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，閱讀者要根據字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關系，研究細節的暗示，推敲作者的態度，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。

8~11.【答案】A、D、D、B【解析】（1）代詞指代題。根據第二段中Agriculture's

rise，however，came

with

a

price.

It

introduced

infectious

diseases，social

inequality，occasional

famines

（饑荒）

and

war.（然而，農業的崛起是有代價的。它帶來了傳染病、社會不平等、偶爾的饑荒和戰爭）和指代關系可推知，指示代詞it代指的是上文的"Agriculture's

rise"。A．Agriculture's

rise.農業的崛起；B．The

growth

of

population.人口的增長；C．The

formation

of

village.村莊的形成；D．The

appearance

of

a

city.一個城市的樣子。故選A項。

（2）推理判斷題。根據第三段中They

live

almost

entirely

free

of

possessions.They

enjoy

an

extraordinary

amount

of

leisure

time，

'working'—

actively

pursuing

food

—

only

four

to

six

hours

a

day.（他們幾乎完全沒有財產。他們享受大量的休閑時間，而每天的"工作"——積極地追求食物——只有4到6個小時）和第四段中The

Hadza，who

by

nature

are

not

a

combative

（好戰的）

people，have

almost

always

moved

away

instead

of

fighting.（哈扎人天生就不是一個好斗的人，他們幾乎總是在搬家，而不是戰斗）可推知，哈扎人總是過著沒有爭斗的自由生活。故選D項。

（3）推理判斷題。根據最后一段中最后兩句話The

fact

is

that

it's

too

late

for

us

to

go

back

to

the

Hadza

lifestyle.Of

greater

concern

is

that

soon

it

may

be

impossible

for

them

to

maintain

theirs.（事實是，我們不能回到哈扎人的生活方式了。更令人擔憂的是，他們可能很快就無法維持自己的生活方式了）可推知，作者對哈德扎人的現狀感到擔憂。故選D項。

（4）標題歸納題。本文主要介紹了坦桑尼亞的哈扎族人的獨特的生活方式。所以用B項"The

Unique

Hadza

Lifestyle

（獨特的哈扎生活方式）"作為本文的標題與文章主題相符合。故選B項。

本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了坦桑尼亞的哈扎族人的生活方式。

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、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等，這類題必須經過對作者的態度、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，閱讀者要根據字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關系，研究細節的暗示，推敲作者的態度，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。

12~15.【答案】D、C、D、A【解析】（1）段落大意題。根據第一段TheyhavecreatedtheEco-currentenergyproductionunitthatharvests"leftover"electronstoharness（利用）electricityfromplants.（他們創造了生態電流能源生產裝置，收集"剩余"電子來利用植物的電力。）、第二段NafisaandherfriendscameupwiththeideaofEco-currentforaschoolcompetition.Theydecidedtoworkoncleanenergyinacreativeway.AndthentheyshowedEco-currentatExpo2020Dubai.（Nafisa和她的朋友們為學校比賽想出了生態電流的主意。他們決定以創造性的方式研究清潔能源。然后他們在2020年迪拜世博會上展示了生態電流。）和第三段ThepupilsfoundresearchfromtheNetherlandsaboutproducingenergyfromplantsusingarunofelectrons.Thisapproachtowardsgreenenergydoesnotharmtheplant.Fornow，thepupilsknowthatthetechnologycanbeusedtopowerphonesorsmallerdevices，usingelectricityproducedfrommoss（苔蘚）.Withbiggerunitsandmoreresearchonthemostsuitabletypesofplants，thepupilsare

largermachinescanbepowered—suchaswashingmachines，coffeemachines，andevenahouse.（學生們發現了來自荷蘭的一項關于利用電子從植物中產生能量的研究。這種綠色能源的方法不會傷害植物。目前，學生們知道這項技術可以用苔蘚產生的電力為手機或更小的設備供電。隨著更大的設備和對最適合的植物類型的更多研究，學生們對更大的機器如洗衣機、咖啡機，甚至是一所房子可以提供動力感到樂觀。）可知，前三段主要告訴我們NadaNafisa和她的伙伴是如何開發新能源的。故選D。

（2）詞句猜測題。根據劃線詞前句Fornow，thepupilsknowthatthetechnologycanbeusedtopowerphonesorsmallerdevices，usingelectricityproducedfrommoss（苔蘚）.（目前，學生們知道這項技術可以用苔蘚產生的電力為手機或更小的設備供電）和前半句Withbiggerunitsandmoreresearchonthemostsuitabletypesofplants，（隨著更大的設備和對最適合的植物類型的更多研究）可知，隨著研究的深入進行，學生們對更大的機器可以提供動力感到樂觀。所以sanguine為"自信的；樂觀的"之意。A.Doubtful.懷疑的；B.Curious.好奇的；C.Confident.自信的；D.Critical.關鍵的。故選C。

（3）細節理解題。根據第三段ThepupilsfoundresearchfromtheNetherlandsaboutproducingenergyfromplantsusingarunofelectrons.（學生們發現了來自荷蘭的一項關于利用電子從植物中產生能量的研究）和第四段Wefoundthatwecanproduceenergyfromplants.（我們發現我們可以從植物中產生能量）可知，NadaNafisa和她的伙伴從植物中獲得能量。故選D。

（4）推理判斷題。根據第三段ThepupilsfoundresearchfromtheNetherlandsaboutproducingenergyfromplantsusingarunofelectrons.Thisapproachtowardsgreenenergydoesnotharmtheplant.Fornow，thepupilsknowthatthetechnologycanbeusedtopowerphonesorsmallerdevices，usingelectricityproducedfrommoss（苔蘚）.Withbiggerunitsandmoreresearchonthemostsuitabletypesofplants，thepupilsare
