their dorms on weekends.D.文章主要介紹了剛離開(kāi)家上大學(xué)的學(xué)生面對(duì)新環(huán)境可能遇到的問(wèn)題和給他們提出的建議。由原文“Increases/decreases in appetite.”可知,如果一個(gè)人想家,就有可能增加或減少食欲,所以C選項(xiàng)“感覺(jué)食物或水果失去吸引力”符合題意,而其他選項(xiàng)“想跟別人吵架”、“對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)比以前更感興趣”和“幾乎參加了大學(xué)所有的活動(dòng)”都不符合題意。(2)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。所以B選項(xiàng)“他們對(duì)不符合預(yù)期的事物感到厭煩”符合題意。(3)推理判斷題。由原文“Set up a balance between work and leisure.”可知,應(yīng)該在工作和休閑之前建立一個(gè)平衡,所以B選項(xiàng)“提醒他們自己保持忙碌并忘記想家”是不符合題意的。所以答案選D。推理是在既有信息的基礎(chǔ)上得出合乎文章內(nèi)容的內(nèi)涵意義,即某一問(wèn)題、某一觀點(diǎn)沒(méi)有直接表述,而寓意在文章的字里行間,要求通過(guò)文中信息分析推出某種符合作者思想、符合文章邏輯的內(nèi)涵意義。推斷題推斷得正確與否,很大程度上取決于是否能正確把握作者潛隱在字里行間的語(yǔ)氣及觀點(diǎn)。In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music, dance and theatre in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War. At the same time, the Fringe appeared as a challenge(挑戰(zhàn)) to the official festival. Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years. Today the Fringe, once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959, with only 19 theatre groups performing, some said it was getting too big. . bee a nonofficial event gone beyond an art festival shows all year round growing rapidly【答案】 (1)A(2)D(3)B(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了愛(ài)丁堡音樂(lè)節(jié)形成和發(fā)展,包括對(duì)創(chuàng)設(shè)目的,參與群體,發(fā)展規(guī)模等方面進(jìn)行了簡(jiǎn)要而準(zhǔn)確的敘述,回顧了愛(ài)丁堡音樂(lè)節(jié)的發(fā)展歷程。根據(jù)第一段中的“The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.”可知,這個(gè)Edinburgh Festival是為了在二戰(zhàn)后重新團(tuán)結(jié)歐洲。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選D。根據(jù)第三段中的“At the same time, the ‘Fringe’ appeared as a challenge(挑戰(zhàn)) to the official festival. ”可知Fringe 與official是相對(duì)的;再根據(jù)“Eight theatre groups turned up?”以及第四段中的“Soon, groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform ”可知很多團(tuán)體和大學(xué)生也參與了進(jìn)來(lái),所以Fringe譯為非正式的,故選B。根據(jù)最后一段中的“ today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. ”可知它發(fā)展的非???。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇文化類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。Spending Christmas in a foreign country can be a truly eyeopening experience, especially since it39。With celebrations beginning on 7 December, Columbia is recognized as having the longest Christmas celebrations period in the world. The celebrations generally begin in the evening with the lighting of candles, either in the streets, parks or outside people39。Probably the biggest surprise for me has been the music people listen to during the Christmas period. At first, you could easily mistake these songs for the classic salsa, which is played all year round. However, after asking a Colombian if it really felt like Christmas music, they explained to me that the songs are loved more for the memories they symbolize than for the way they sound, and that Colombia has been through so many dark periods in history, it was important to hold on to the good memories of years gone past. t need to be religious to take part in these Christmas traditions.(1)What39。t a global festival. isn39。s celebrated only in some places.(2)What can we learn about the Christmas music? is celebrated in the same way as in the UK. is celebrated mainly as a religious festival. is celebrated for nine days or so. is celebrated with lanterns and fireworks.(3)What do Colombians do during the Christmas celebration period? traditional foods. to the church together. abut home decorations. a onemonthlong holiday.(4)Colombians love the songs mainly because ______. sound extremely wonderful express best wishes for the future represent good memories of the past have been passed down for generations【答案】 (1)B(2)B(3)A(4)C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了在哥倫比亞圣誕節(jié)的意義及人們的慶祝方式。根據(jù)第一段中的“Being from the UK, Christmas for me means spending time with family and friends, exchanging presents, eating and drinking, and, of course, hiding from the cold.”可知在作者眼里,圣誕節(jié)意味著與家人和朋友共度時(shí)光,交換禮物,吃喝玩樂(lè)。故選B。根據(jù)第一段中的“In Colombia, however, Christmas is viewed much more as a time which devotes itself to religion.”可知在哥倫比亞,圣誕節(jié)更多的是作為宗教節(jié)日被慶祝的,故選B。根據(jù)第二段中的“another tradition in Colombia is that during the nine days before Christmas, family members and friends meet up to pray, sing songs and share traditional foods at home. ”可知在哥倫比亞,家人和朋友團(tuán)聚祈禱,唱歌,共享傳統(tǒng)食物。 (4)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選C。5.閱讀理解 Popular music in America is what every student likes.
