A.Satisfied.B.Hopeful.C.Surprised.D.Worried.【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）A（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了美國報紙的由來，以及現(xiàn)在面臨的挑戰(zhàn)和做出的調整。(1)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“the printer James Franklin, Benjamin39。s older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper.”可知，James Franklin創(chuàng)辦的New England Courant就是我們今天所知的真正的報紙，也就標志著美國報業(yè)的開始，故選C。(2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Newspaper panies are losing advertisers, readers, market value”可知，報社正在逐漸失去廣告商，讀者和市場價值，以及后面編輯的話At places where they gather, editors ask one another, 39。How are you?39。, as if they have just e out of the hospital or a lost law case.，編輯們現(xiàn)在見面聊天的時候都會互相問候“你還好嗎”仿佛剛出院或輸了一場官司，其實隱含的意思就是因為報紙業(yè)的不景氣，編輯們現(xiàn)在正面臨著困難，所以這個問候應該是你們報社生意怎么樣？故選D。(3)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段可知，找到一種新的發(fā)展方式的是The Washington Post《華盛頓郵報》。故選A。(4)考查推理判斷。通讀全文，作者列舉了報業(yè)所面臨的種種問題，可以判斷作者對此很擔憂。故選D?！军c評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇生活類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀下列短文，從短文后每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。 So many of us hold on to little resentments that may have e from an argument, a misunderstanding, or some other painful event. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us—believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship. An acquaintance of mine, whose health isn39。t very good, recently told me that she hadn39。t spoken to her son in almost three years. She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn39。t speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out, she resisted initially and said, I can39。t do that. He39。s the one who should apologize. She was literally willing to die before reaching out to her only son. After a little gentle encouragement, however, she did decide to be the first one to reach out. To her amazement, her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own. As is usually the case when someone takes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins. Whenever we hold on to our anger, we turn small stuff into really big stuff in our minds. We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go, and reach out. Let other people be right. This doesn39。t mean that you39。re wrong. Everything will be fine. You39。ll experience the peace of letting go, as well as the joy of letting others be right. You39。ll also notice that, as you reach out and let others be right, they will bee less defensive and more loving toward you. They might even reach back. But if for some reason they don39。t, that39。s okay too. You39。ll have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world, and certainly you39。ll be more peaceful yourself.（1）The underlined word rekindle in Paragraph 1 probably means ____________. A.recoverB.developC.acceptD.replace（2）According to the passage, the author39。s friend never spoke to her son for three years because ____________.

A.instruct the readers how to apologizeB.teach the readers how to gain inner peaceC.inform the readers the importance of being forgivingD.tell the readers to reach out first when there are painful events.【答案】（1）A（2）C（3）D（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文，論述了面對與人們的矛盾時，不要執(zhí)著于怨恨，伸出你的手來化解它，學會首先向別人道歉，讓別人是對的，這并不意味著你是錯的。（1）考查詞義猜測。第一段中的“Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us—believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship.”固執(zhí)地說，我們等著別人來找我們——相信這是我們能夠原諒或重新點燃友誼或家庭關系的唯一途徑?？芍猺ekindle是“恢復”之意，選A。（2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“ She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn39。t speak to him again unless he called first.”她說她和她兒子對他的妻子意見不和，她不會再和他說話除非他先打電話。故選C。（3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy.”我們開始相信我們的地位比我們的幸福更重要。其實不然，如果你想成為一個更愛好和平的人，就必須明白“正確”幾乎永遠也不會比讓自己快樂更重要。可知A、B、C三項都是人們不愿首先道歉的原因，故選D。（4）考查寫作意圖?？v觀全文可知，本文探討了面對與人們的矛盾時，應該做主動言和的那個人，這樣才能消除心中的怨恨，并且獲得幸福，因此本文的目的是告訴讀者在發(fā)生痛苦的事情時要先主動道歉，故選D?！军c評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和寫作意圖三個題型的考查，是一篇生活類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，概括歸納，從而選出正確答案。6．閱讀理解 About aspirin: Aspirin is a monly used drug which can be taken to relieve disfort caused by numerous medical problems including headaches, toothache, inflammation and infections.
