【正文】 ildren. poor kids a chance for a better life. soccer players to help poor kids.【答案】 （1）B（2）C（3）A（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了一些受歡迎的運動項目和游戲。有些游戲可以幫助孩子們成長，而全球萬眾矚目的奧林匹克運動會關系著整個國家的榮譽。因此，運動還和我們的生活息息相關。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據第二段中的“But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating .”但也許更重要的是，他們把生活轉化為令人興奮的戲劇，教孩子們一些他們將在余生中遵循的基本規(guī)則，比如輪流和合作，可知，孩子們通過玩捉迷藏的游戲學會一些未來生活中的基本法則。故選B。 （2）考查詞義猜測。劃線部分前面的謂語動詞是translate有“翻譯，解釋，轉移，調動”的意思，該部分后面有一個定語從句“that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating .”教孩子們一些他們將在余生中遵循的基本規(guī)則，比如輪流和合作。前后結合就可以理解這部分的意思是：他們把生活變成激動人心的戲劇，由此可知，此處與C項“游戲可以讓學習生活技能更有趣”意思相近。故選C。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據第四段中的“People who watch the event wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned it.”觀看比賽的人揮舞著旗幟，知道金牌是一個國家的勝利，而不僅僅是贏得金牌的運動員，可推斷，贏得奧運獎牌激發(fā)了人們對國家深厚的愛。故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據倒數第二段中的“He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future.”他創(chuàng)建了一個基金會，為貧困兒童提供的不僅僅是足球還有一個充滿希望的未來?？芍?，Iribarne成立基金會的目的是讓貧窮的孩子有機會過上更好的生活。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，是一篇生活類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。7．閱讀理解 If you live in a place where most people speak the language you are learning, you may use the language for several hours each day. So it may bee part of your inner speech. In other words, you start thinking in that language. Your mind stops trying to translate things from your native language into the second language. But most of the English learners live in places where English is not the main language. This may be true for you. You may not have many chances to practice English. You may even be selftaught. Thinking in English really helps! It is not very difficult, but it does need practice. Here we will share some mental exercises. A good first step is to think in words. Look around you. What do you see? In your head, try to name each object in your surroundings. Charles Thomas has taught English for over 10 years. He tells his students to name the things that they see around them, wherever they are. Another exercise Thomas suggest is describing in your mind objects you don39。t know the words for. An example would be if you couldn39。t think of the word garage. Thomas says, If you39。re looking at your house and you see your garage, but you can39。t think of the name in English. You can say, 39。The place inside where I put my car39。 or you can say, 39。It39。s next to my house. I keep things there.39。 The next exercise is thinking in simple sentences. For example, if you are sitting in a park, you can tell yourself things like, It39。s such a beautiful day and People are playing sports with their friends. You can also describe your daily activities. Thomas asks his students to describe their day using the simple present verb form. So, they would think to themselves things like, I put on my shirt and He drives the bus. How much time should you spend on these exercises? Thomas says you do a little every day. When you make things a habit, then it just pops up into your mind without thinking and then, before you know it, really, you39。re thinking in English.（1）When a second language bees part of your inner speech, ________. people around you speak the language start thinking in the language translate things from your native language into it learn the language by yourself（2）The place inside where I put my car is an example for ________ objects in your surroundings in simple sentences objects you don39。t know the words for your daily activities（3）Which of the following is the best title for the passage? your time on exercises yourself a second language your brain to think in English English wherever you are【答案】 （1）B（2）C（3）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了在語言環(huán)境中學習語言的重要性，并給出了具體的學習方法。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據第一段中“So it may bee part of your ‘inner speech.’ In other words, you start thinking in that language. ”可知，當第二種語言成為你“內在語言”的一部分時，你就會開始用這種語言思考。故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據第三段中的“Another exercise Thomas suggest is describing in your mind objects you don39。t know the words for. ”可知，此句是總述句，因此“The place inside where I put my car”“我停車的地方”是用來支撐總述句“托馬斯建議描述你的頭腦中一些你不知道的東西”的例子。故選C。 （3）考查主旨大意。縱觀全文全文可知，在一個大多數人都說你正在學習的語言的地方，你可以每天使用這種語言幾個小時，然而大多數人不具備這樣的條件，全文為這類人提供了具體的學習方法，目的要達到用這種語言進行思考。故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎上，進一步根據上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 Robots have taken over many of America39。s factories. But can they pick a strawberry? It39。s really hard for robots to match what humans can do, says Bob Pizter, an expert on robots. Any 4yearold kid can pick a strawberry, but machines can39。t seem to figure it out. Pizter says the hardest thing for them is finding the fruit. Pizter39。s strawberrypicking robot is rolling into a strawberry field. This welldesigned device drives itself. It39。s as big as a bus, long enough to straddle (跨越) a dozen rows of strawberries at once. Powerful puters are sitting on top. Underneath, there are highdefinition cameras to find the berries, and robotic claws ready to pick them. Nobody39。s telling it what to do, explains Paul Bissett, the chief operating officer of Harvest CROO Robotics. It39。s remembering its path down the row. It39。s remembering where all these plants are. It knows all this, thanks to the superaccurate GPS. Its puter brain contains a map showing the locations of every strawberry plant in the field. The action of machinery is truly impressive, but the baskets are still practically empty. Pitzer says the robots are able to find and pick more than 50 percent of ripe berries. That39。s not yet up to human standards. A typical worker, he says, manages to pick anywhere from 60 to 90 percent of the berries. Also, he admits, the machine is slower than human hands. On the other hand, it has some advantages. It can work right through the night. Two years later, he says, this machine will be in the fields working for real. There are weaknesses to work out, but it39。s getting there. We39。re close. he says. Strawberry panies are putting millions of dollars into this project. The reason, Gary Wishnatzki, the owner of Wish Farms says, is that it39。s getting more and more
