【正文】 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“ Second yourlow prices and excellent customer service keep me ing back to Supermarket”你們的低價和優(yōu)質(zhì)的顧客服務(wù)使我經(jīng)常光顧你們的超市。從信中我們可以了解到作者是該店的?？汀９蔬xB。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“Specifically, I have never been able to purchase nacho cheese soup at your store. I can find other flavors (味道) of soup, but your store does not carry nacho cheese soup, a mon ingredient (原料) in many of my recipes. In addition, I can only find large wonton wrappers, while many other stores carry both large and small and offer a more varied selection for their customers. Another example is Regent Brand Chili Seasoning.”具體來說，我從來沒能在你們店里買到納喬奶酪湯。我可以找到其他口味的湯，但你們店里沒有納喬奶酪湯，我的很多食譜里都有納喬奶酪湯。此外，我只能找到大餛飩皮，而許多其他的商店有大的和小的，并為他們的客戶提供更多樣化的選擇。另一個例子是Regent牌辣椒調(diào)料。可知，作者在第二段中通過舉例子來陳述他的觀點。故選D。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中“Your Supermarket is outstanding in many ways. First I enjoy the selection of produce and fresh bakery items. Second your low prices and excellent customer service keep me ing back to Supermarket.”你們的超市在很多方面都很出色。首先，我喜歡選擇農(nóng)產(chǎn)品和新鮮的烘焙食品。其次，你們低廉的價格和優(yōu)質(zhì)的客戶服務(wù)讓我經(jīng)常光顧超市。可知，據(jù)鮑勃說，這家雜貨店提供良好的顧客服務(wù)。故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一封信件，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。3．閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。 A large body of research has been developed in recent years to explain many aspects of willpower. Most of the researchers exploring selfcontrol do so with an obvious goal in mind: How can willpower be strengthened? If willpower is truly a limited resource, as the research suggests, what can be done to make it stay strong? Avoiding temptation (誘惑) is an effective method for maintaining selfcontrol, which is called the out of sight, out of mind principle. One recent study, for instance, found office workers less attracted to candy in the desk drawer than that on top of their desks, in plain sight. The research suggesting that we possess a limited reservoir of selfcontrol raises a troubling question. When we face too many temptations, are we to fail? Not necessarily. Researchers don39。t believe that one39。s willpower is ever pletely exhausted. Rather, people appear to hold some willpower in reserve, saved for future demands. The right motivation allows us to tap into those reserves, allowing us to carry on even when our selfcontrol strength has been run down. High motivation might help overe weakened willpowerat least to a point. Willpower may also be made less vulnerable (脆弱) to being exhausted in the first place. Researchers who study selfcontrol often describe it as being like a muscle that gets tired with heavy use. But there is another aspect to the muscle parison, they say. While muscles bee exhausted by exercise in the short term, they are strengthened by regular exercise in the long term. Similarly, regular practices of selfcontrol may improve willpower strength. The evidence from willpowerexhaustion studies also suggests that making a list of resolutions on New Year39。s Eve is the worst possible approach. Being exhausted in one area can reduce willpower in other areas, so it makes more sense to focus on a single goal at a time. In other words, don39。t try to quit smoking, adopt a healthy diet and start a new exercise plan at the same time. Taking goals one by one is a better approach. Once a good habit is in place, Baumeister says, you39。ll no longer need to draw on your willpower to maintain the behavior. Eventually healthy habits will bee routine, and won39。t require making decisions at all.（1）From the studies in the passage we learn that ________. A.people have unlimited selfcontrolB.high motivation ensures one39。s successC.willpower is hardly pletely exhaustedD.too many temptations often lead to failure（2）The underlined phrase tap into in Paragraph 3 most probably means ________. A.make use ofB.run out ofC.buildD.increase（3）The author pares self—control to muscles ________. A.to prove the longterm effect of willpowerB.to show the significance of regular exerciseC.to argue that selfcontrol can he easily used upD.to explain the benefits of practicing selfcontrol（4）To develop a good habit, which of the following does the author prefer? A.I will give up dessert and do exercise.B.I will set three goals this new semester.C.I will read an English novel every month.D.I will keep myself from any temptation.【答案】 （1）C（2）A（3）D（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文，列舉了關(guān)于意志力的幾種研究和觀點，作者認為有了明確的目標(biāo)，良好的自我監(jiān)督和練習(xí)，就可以在面對誘惑時使意志力保持堅強。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“Researchers don39。t believe that one39。s willpower is ever pletely exhausted. Rather, people appear to hold some willpower in reserve, saved for future demands.”可知，研究人員不相信人的意志力會完全耗盡，他們還有備用的和為將來需求節(jié)省的意志力。所以從文章中的研究我們了解到意志力幾乎沒有完全喪失。故選C。 （2）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的The right motivation allows us to tap into those reserves, allowing us to carry on even when our selfcontrol strength has been run down.可知，正確的動機使我們能夠利用這些儲備，即使我們的自我控制能力已經(jīng)被消耗殆盡，我們?nèi)匀豢梢岳^續(xù)前進。所以通過上下文的語境，判斷出tap into指利用，與make use of同義。故選A。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“While muscles bee exhausted by exercise in the short term, they are strengthened by regular exercise in the long term. Similarly, regular practices of selfcontrol may improve willpower strength.”可知，雖然肌肉在短期內(nèi)會因運動而疲憊不堪，但長期而言，它們會通過經(jīng)常鍛煉而增強。同樣規(guī)律的自我控制可以提高意志力。兩者相比是為了說明同一個道理：長期的鍛煉和自我控制的好處。所以作者把自我控制比作肌肉是為了解釋自我控制的好處。故選D。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Taking goals one by one is a better approach. Once a good habit is in place, you39。ll no longer need to draw on your willpower to maintain the behavior. Eventually healthy habits will bee routine, and won39。t require making decisions at all.”可知，作者認為一個接一個的制定目標(biāo)是一個更好的方法。一旦養(yǎng)成好習(xí)慣，你就不再需要依靠意志力來維持自己的行為。最終健康的習(xí)慣將成為慣例，而且不需要做任何決定。所以C項I will read an English novel every month.是先設(shè)立目標(biāo)，然后成為好習(xí)慣，作者更喜歡這種目標(biāo)。故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。4．閱讀理解 With fuel costs rising and airlines finding more fees to impose on travelers every day, airfare isn39。t getting any cheaper. Since you can39。t drive to all your dream destinations, flying is the only way to go sometimes and, undeniably, the fastest. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to find the most affordable fares and also avoid paying as many extra charges as possible when you plan ahead. Getting the
