【答案】21.B22.D23.C

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了Khalifa為了跟隨JaneGoodall去建立一個更美好的世界

加入了Roots&Shoots,她參與了許多服務項目，并且她希望能激勵女性、有色人種，對他

們的社區產生影響的人。是個樂于助人且很有雄心壯志的人。

【21題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據第一段中Butherinvolvementbeganmuchearlierwhenshewasinspired

byavideoshowninaschoolclassroomofDr.JaneGojdal1doingresearchinTanzania.

“Ithinkitwasthethirdgrade,“shesays."Iwaslike,*Wow,Iwanttobelike

her.可知但她的參與在更早的時候就開始了，當時JaueGcxxkdl博_L在坦桑尼亞一所學

校的教室里做研究的視頻給了她靈感。“我想那是在三年級的時候，”她說。“我當時就想,

'哇，我也想成為她那樣的人。'"；以及第二段中Asamcmbci'oftheRoots&Shootsin

highschool,shewasinvolvedinmanyserviceprojects,tomakethewor1dabetter

placeforpeople,animals,andtheenvironment.可知作為高中時Roots&Shoots的一

員，她參與了許多服務項目，為人類、動物和環境創造一個更好的世界。由此可推知，Khalifa

加入Roots&Shoots,是為了跟胞JaneGoodall去建立一個更美好的世界。故選

【22題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據第三段中DuringtheIraqWar,sheandherpeersmadeandcollected

artfromstudentsintheUnitedStatesandsentthemtoIraqis.Theprojecttapped

intobothherpassionfcrexpressionthroughartar.dhermitmenttohelpingothers.

可知在伊拉克戰爭期間，她和她的同齡人從美國的學生那里制作和收集藝術作品，并把它們

寄給伊拉克人。這個項目激發了她對通過藝術表達的熱情和她對幫助他人的承諾。由此可推

知，Khalifa是個有愛心樂于助人的人;以及最后一段中"Themountaintop,formeat

least,wshesays,“ismakingapositiveimpactinmymunity,knowingthatIhelped

changenotonlymylifebutotherpeople,slives.vShehopesthatherstorywill

motivateothers.IwanttodothesameforothersthatJanehasdoneforme.That,s

thelongtermgoal."可知"山頂，至少對我來說，”她說，“對我的社區產生了積極的影

響，知道我不僅改變了自己的牛活,而口改變了其他人的牛活。她希望自己的故事能激勵其

他人。最后，她說，“我想為其他人做同樣的事，就像簡為我做的那樣。”這是長期目標。”

由此可推知，Khalifa希望能夠激勵其他人，且有自己的目標，是個有雄心壯志的人。綜上，

Khalifa是個有愛心和雄心壯志的人。故選D。

【23題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段中Shehopestobeaninspirationtowomen,topeopleof

color,andtootherswhouhavethatlittleseed“whowanttoaskquestions,seek

answers,haveanimpactontheirmunities.可知她希望能激勵女性、有色人種以及其他

“有那粒小種子”的人一一那些想要提問、尋求答案、對他們的社區產生影響的人。以及最

后一段中"Themountainlop,formeatleast,wshesays,“ismakingapositiveimpact

inmymunity,knowingthatIhelpedchangenotonlymylifebutotherpeople*slives.”

Shehopesthatherstorywillmotivateothers.可知“山頂，至少對我來說，“她說，

“對我的社區產生了積極的影響，知道我不僅改變了白匚的生活，而且改變了其他人的生活。

她希望自己的故事能激勵其他人。由此可推知，從Khalifa的話中，人們應該對他人有所影

響。故選C。

【答案】24.A25.D26.B

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了如果你插隊，你可能就是個壞人。排隊是一種規則，獎勵

是通過耐心贏得的。如果你插隊，可能會引來排隊的人的憤怒。文章主要介紹了一些明智的

插隊方式。

【24題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據第一段中Yourchoicetoavoidthissimehonoredprocesswillbebound

todrawtheangerofthoseyoupassby,drawingremarkslike“Whoathere,Chief,“

thepassivcaggrcssive“There'saline,youknow!**andofcourse,theincredibly

mon“Hey,Copernicus,whydon'tyouguideyourselftothebackoftheline?”可

知你選擇避開這個歷史悠久的過程，勢必會引來被你插隊的人的憤怒，引來諸如“哇，老

大”“沒看到在排隊嗎？”這樣的被動攻擊性的話語，當然，還有非常常見的話“嘿，哥白

尼，你為什么不把自己引導到隊伍的后面去？”由此可推知，作者在第一段使用了關于老大

和哥白尼的評論，是為了舉例說明隊伍里其他人的反應。故選A。

【25題詳解】

細節理解題。根據第三段中Theregularityofthesituationisveryimportant.（形勢的

規律性是很重要的）可知C選項“考慮到事情的規律性”是明智的插隊方式；根據倒數第二段

中Forthoserequestsinnormalsituations,emphasizingeithertheurgencyofyour

taskorthesimplicityofyourtaskprovedtobeeffective:experimenterswhosaid

“Excuseme,Ihavefivepages.MayIusethephotocopier?”（對于那些在正常情況下

的請求，強調任務的緊迫性或任務的簡單性被證明是有效的：實驗者說“不好意思，我有五

頁紙。我可以用這臺亞印機嗎？”）可知B選項“說明活動的緊急情況”屬于明智的插隊方式;

根據最后一段中Ifyouhaveacoupleofextradollarslyingaround,bribingmembers

ofthelinealsoprovedtobeeffective.（如果你有多余的錢，賄賂隊伍中的成員也被證

明是有效的）可知C選項“給排隊的人送錢”屬于明智的插隊方式；只有D選項“捍衛插隊的

權利”文章沒有提到，不是明智的插隊方式。故選D。

【26題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據第二段Bui,inthemomentinwhichyoureallycannotwait,forexample,

theentireroyalfamilyhaspreparedadinnerpartyuponyoulastminute,thenthere

isawaytocutthelinecorrectly.可知但是，在你真的等不了的時候，例如，整個皇室

家族在最后一刻為你準備了一場晚宴，那么有一種方法可以正確地插隊。結合文章主要說明

了如果你插隊，你可能就是個壞人。排隊是一種規則，獎勵是通過耐心贏得的。如果你插隊,

可能會引來排隊的人的憤怒。文章主要介紹了一些明智的插隊方式。由此可知，B選項“可以

接受的插隊方式”最符合文章標題，故選B。

【答案】27.C28.B29.D30.A

【解析】

【分析】

這是一篇說明文.文章介紹了發光的浮游生物，以及說明了浮游生物過度生長會導致海洋生

物的死亡。

【27題詳解】

詞義猜測題。由第二段中的的“Forstarters,theshiningplanktonhassweetspetsto

whereitshowsupandthenfadesaway,sowhileonthewater,it'simpossibletojust

findit,”首先，發光的浮游生物在它們出現和消失的地方都有自己的閃光點，所以當它們

在水面上的時候，耍找到它們是不可能的。可知，發光的浮游生物在它們出現和消失的地方

都有自己的閃光點，可以推斷，“sweetspots”指的是浮游生物出現和消失的地方，是一個

完美的時刻。故選C項。

【28題詳解】

細節理解題。由第三段中的"Thoughwitnessingshiningsea1ifeisrare…Thephencmenon

canbeattributedtothepresenceofmillionsofplankton,whichtendtogatherand

reproduceinlargequantitiesinthewarmcoastalwatersduringthistime.雖然

親眼目睹閃亮的海洋生物是罕見的……這種現象可以歸因于數以百萬計的浮游生物的存在，

它們在這段時間里傾向于在溫暖的沿海水域大量聚集和繁殖。可知，海洋生物發光的主要原

因是，它們被數百萬閃亮的浮游生物包圍著。故選B項。

【29題詳解】

細節理解題。由第三段中的"ThoughamajorityofCalifornia'sredtidesarccausedby

planktonspeciesthatdonotproducedeadIypoison,somealgalblooms（藻花）canbe

dangerousforseaanimals,especial1ywhentheystayforlongperiodsoftime…killed

hundredsoffishandotierseaanimals.w盡管多數加州的赤潮是由不能產生致命的毒藥

的浮游生物物種造成的，一些藻花對海洋動物是危險的，恃別是當它們保持很長一段時間……

導致數百條魚類和其他海洋動物死亡。可以推斷，造成海洋生物死亡的原因是藻類的繁殖。

故選D項。

【30題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據文章內容可知，文章介紹了發光的浮游生物，以及說明了浮游生物過度生

長會導致海洋生物的死亡。可以推斷，這篇說明文可能出現在報紙的科學版面。故選A項。

【點睛】細節理解題主要考查考生對某句話或某幾句話的理解，同學們若能根據題干內容從

原文中找到相關的句子，然后進行比較和分析，便可確定最佳答案。多數情況下，作者不會

明確的呈現一個事實，讀者需要根據已有的信息進行處理，讀出言外之意。還要特別注意文

章的時間順序、故事發生的地點、情節的發展和人物之間的關系.例如，第2題，由第三段

中的“ThoughamajorityofCalifornia'sredtidesarecausedbyplanktonspeciesthat
