soldthreeofthefourT-shirts.Withthemoneyhemade,hehadanothersixprinted,then12,then24.“Thatfirstyeartheearningswere$98,000,”hesays.(“这是我花过的最值的50美元,”《先驱报》笑着说。到上午结束时,他已经卖掉了四件T恤中的三件。加上他赚的钱,他又印了6张,然后是12张,然后是24张。“第一年的收入是9.8万美元,”他表示。)”可推知,Herald认为这是他花过的最好的50美元,是因为他从那笔钱中获得了超出预期的收益,故选D。【30题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中“Hisbusinesswasduetonotjustclevermarketing—thepubliclovedtheslogan—butalsohehastoadmitthatinthosedaystherewasverylittlecompetitioninhissectoroftheclothingindustry,andhewasintherightplaceattherighttime.(他的生意不仅是因为精明的营销——公众喜欢这个口号——还因为他不得不承认,当时他所在的服装行业几乎没有什么竞争,而且他在正确的时间出现在了正确的地点。)”可推知,Herald认为他生意的成功源于商业意识和运气,故选A。【31题详解】词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段中划线单词上文“Hismessage:anyonecanbefinanciallysuccessfuliftheysettheirmindtoit.(他的信息是:任何人只要下定决心,都可以获得经济上的成功。)”和下文“becausenoteverythingisgoingtoworkthewayyouplanit.(因为不是所有事都按你的计划进行)”可知,并不是所有事情都能按照你的计划进行,因此要下定决心,坚持下去,也就是要有毅力,由此可知,划线单词stickability意为“持久性”,与C项“persistence(毅力)”意思一样,故选C。【32题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段“Theaccusation(谴责)sparkedsomethinginhim,andheborrowed$50fromhisbrothertohavefourT-shirtsprintedwiththeslogan:“Idon’thaveanattitudeproblem;youhaveaperception(看法,见解)problem.(这个指控激起了他的某种情绪,他向他哥哥借了50美元,买了四件印有标语的T恤衫:“我没有态度问题;你有观念问题。”)”可知,文章主要讲述了JustinHerald致富的过程,并说明了他变得富有是因为他坚持不懈的态度,因此最后的题目是B项“态度得到了回报”适合做文章标题,故选B。COnebillionpeopleintheworldareshortofwater.Howcanthisproblembesolved?Somesuggestionshavebeentodesalinateoceanwaterortobuildenormouswaterpipelinesfromareaswherewaterisabundant.(Suggestionssuchastheseproveextremelyexpensivewhentheyareactuallyused.)Onepossibilitythatscientistsareconsideringispullingicebergs(冰山)fromeithertheNorthPoleortheSouthPoletopartsoftheworldwithawatershortage.Althoughmanyquestionsmustbeansweredbeforesuchaprojectcouldbetried,movingicebergsseemsareasonablepossibilityinthefuture.

A.IcebergsforWaterB.ShortageofWaterC.ScientistsandIcebergsD.Icebergs—Scientists’Headache【答案】33.A34.C35.B36.A【解析】【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述了科学家们对运输冰山作为解决淡水资源缺乏问题提出的假设以及可能性,并且认为解决了一系列的问题之后,这一办法是可行的。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Howcana200-million-tonicebergbemoved?Noshipisstrongenoughtopullsuchenormousweightthroughthewater.Perhapsseveralshipscouldbeused.Attachingropestoanicebergthissizeisalsoanenormousproblem.(2亿吨的冰山怎么移动?没有一艘船能够在水中拖动如此巨大的重量。也许可以用几艘船。把绳子系在这么大的冰山上也是个大问题。)”可知,运输冰山的过程中由于冰山体积过大,运输将有难度,这将是运输过程中存在的一个问题,故选A。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中“Althoughmanyquestionsmustbeansweredbeforesuchaprojectcouldbetried,movingicebergsseemsareasonablepossibilityinthefuture.(尽管在尝试这样的项目之前必须回答许多问题,但移动冰山在未来似乎是一种合理的可能性。)”和最后一段中“Asasolutiontotheworld’swaterproblems,icebergsmaybeaworkablepossibility.(作为世界水资源问题的解决方案,冰山也许是一种可行的可能性。)”可推知,作者认为作为解决世界用水问题的办法——移动冰山是合理的可能的解决办法,即作者对此方法持乐观积极的态度,故选C。【35题详解】主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Alloftheseproblemsmustbesolvedbeforeicebergscanbecomeareasonablesourceofwater.Yetscientistsestimatethatitwillbepossibletotransporttheminthenearfuture.Eachyear,enoughicebergsformtosupplythewholeworldwithfreshwaterforafullyear.Inaddition,icebergsarefreeandnonpolluting.Asasolutiontotheworld’swaterproblems,icebergsmaybeaworkablepossibility.(在冰山成为合理的水源之前,所有这些问题都必须得到解决。然而,科学家们估计,在不久的将来将有可能运输它们。每年形成的冰山足以为全世界提供一整年的淡水。此外,冰山是自由和无污染的。作为世界水资源问题的解决方案,冰山也许是一种可行的可能性。)”可知,Yet后面的内容是重点,即该段告诉我们用冰山解决世界上淡水问题是个不错的选择。故选B。【36题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中“Althoughmanyquestionsmustbeansweredbeforesuchaprojectcouldbetried,movingicebergsseemsareasonablepossibilityinthefuture.(尽管在尝试这样的项目之前
必须回答许多问题,但移动冰山在未来似乎是一种合理的可能性。)”和最后一段中“Yetscientistsestimatethatitwillbepossibletotransporttheminthenearfuture.Eachyear,enoughicebergsformtosupplythewholeworldwithfreshwaterforafullyear.Inaddition,icebergsarefreeandnonpolluting.Asasolutiontotheworld’swaterproblems,icebergsmaybeaworkablepossibility.(然而,科学家们估计,在不久的将来将有可能运输它们。每年形成的冰山足以为全世界提供一整年的淡水。此外,冰山是自由和无污染的。作为世界水资源问题的解决方案,冰山也许是一种可行的可能性。)”可知,文章主要讲述了科学家们对运输冰山作为解决淡水资源缺乏问题提出的假设以及可能性,并且认为解决了一系列的问题之后,这一办法是可行的。A项“用冰山上的水”适合作文章标题,故选A。DManyofusmistakenlybelievethatit’swrongtothinkwehaveanygoodqualities.Wemayspendalotoftimeblamingourselvesforournegativequalities,thinkingthatself-criticismisthekeytoimprovingourperformance.However,aconstantfocusonoursupposedshortcomingscanstopoureffortstomakefriendswithotherpeople.Howcanwebelievethatotherscouldlikeusifwebelieveourinnerbeingisflawed(有缺陷)?Ifsomeoneseemstodislikeyou,thereasonforthatdislikemighthavelittleornothingtodowithyou.Thepersonwhodoesn’tlikeyoumightbefearful,orshallow,orbusyorshy.Perhapsyouandthatpersonaresimplyamismatchforeachotheratthisparticulartime.Don’ttakeyourselfoutofthegamebydecidingthatyourflawsarebiggerthanyourgoodqualities.Infact,someoftheveryqualitiesyouconsidertobeflawsmaybeirresistibletosomeoneelse.Forallthefactorsthatmightcauseonepersontorejectyou,thereareatleastasmanyfactorsthatwillworkinyourfavorwithsomeoneelse.Youmightbethirtypoundsoveryouridealweight,butyoumayhaveawonderfullaughandarealenthusiasmforlife.Therearemanypeoplewhodon’tmindyourextrapounds.Youmaydriveashabbycar,butyoumightbeagreatdancerandaloyalfriend.Therearepeopleouttherelookingforloyalty,orfun,orsweetness,orwisdom,andthepackageitcomesinisnotimportant.Ifyouareworriedthatyouarenotbeautifulenoughtoattractfriends,keepinmindthatnoteveryoneislookingforphysicalbeautyintheirfriends.Youcandecidetofeelinferior(自卑)becauseyoudon’thavemuchmoneyandyoudon’tdriveanicecar.Youcanbelievethatthisisthereasonthatyoudon’thavemanyfriendsinyourlife.Ontheotherhand,ifyouareverywealthyyoumaybesuspiciousthateveryoneisafteryourmoneyandthatnobodyreallylikesyouasaperson.Thepointisthatyoucanfocusonjustaboutanythingandbelieveit’sthereasonwhyyoudonothavefriends

如果一个人不喜欢你,原因可能与你无关,即你也许不是那个该受责备的人,故选A。【39题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Infact,someoftheveryqualitiesyouconsidertobeflawsmaybeirresistibletosomeoneelse.Forallthefactorsthatmightcauseonepersontorejectyou,thereareatleastasmanyfactorsthatwillworkinyourfavorwithsomeoneelse.(事实上,一些你认为是缺点的特质可能对其他人来说是不可抗拒的。对于所有可能导致一个人拒绝你的因素,至少有同样多的因素会对你和其他人有利。)”可知,我们可以从第三段中了解到,你的弱点在某种程度上也可能是你的长处,故选C。【40题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Thepointisthatyoucanfocusonjustaboutanythingandbelieveit’sthereasonwhyyoudonothavefriendsandcannotmakeany.(关键是你可以专注于任何事情,并且相信这就是为什么你没有朋友,也不能交到朋友的原因。)”可推知,如果作者继续写,他最有可能提出如何发现你的优点。故选D。第III部分书面表达(共两节,35分)第一节阅读回答问题(共4小题;每小题2.5分,共10分)阅读下面短文和问题,根据短文内容和每小题后具体要求,完成对该问题的回答。答语要意思清楚,结构正确,书写工整。JeanPaulGettywasbornin1892inMinneapolis,Minnesota.Hebecameamillionairewhenhewasonly24.Hisfatherwaswealthy,buthedidnothelphisson.Gettymadehismillionsalone.Hemadehismoneyfromoil.HeownedGettyOilandover100othercompanies.TheFortunemagazineoncecalledGetty“therichestmanintheworld.”ButmoneydidnotbuyhappinessforGetty.Hemarriedfivetimesanddivorcedfivetimes.Hehadfivechildrenbutspentlittletimewiththem.NoneofGetty’schildrenhadveryhappylives.Gettylovedtomakemoneyandlovedtosaveit.Inspiteofhisgreatwealth,Gettywasamiser.Everyevening,hewrotedowneverycenthespentthatday.Heevenputpaytelephoneintheguest’sbedroomsinhishousesohecouldsavemoneyonphonebills.In1973,kidnappers(绑匪)tookhis16-year-oldgrandson,anddemandedalargeamountofmoneyforhissafereturn.Getty’ssonaskedhisfatherformoneytosavehischild.ButGettyrefused.ThekidnappersweremercilessandGetty’ssonmaderepeatedrequestsforhelpfromhisfather.Finally,Gettyagreedtolendthemoney,butat4percentinterest.

ownefforts./Grettymadehismillionsalone.。【42题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段划线句子下文“Everyevening,hewrotedowneverycenthespentthatday.Heevenputpaytelephoneintheguest’sbedroomsinhishousesohecouldsavemoneyonphonebills.(每天晚上,他都记下那天花的每一分钱。他甚至在客人的卧室里安装了付费电话,这样他就可以省下电话费了。)可知,虽然Getty很富有,但是他舍不得花钱,由此可知,划线句子“Inspiteofhisgreatwealth,Gettywasamiser.”意为“尽管他很富有,盖提却讨厌花钱/花钱很少/很小气/很吝啬。”故填Althoughhewasveryrich,Gettyhatedtospendmoney/Grettyspentlittlemoney/Grettywasmean/Grettywasstingy.。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中“In1973,kidnappers(绑匪)tookhis16-year-oldgrandson,anddemandedalargeamountofmoneyforhissafereturn.(1973年,绑匪绑架了他16岁的孙子,并要求他支付一大笔钱,以保证他的安全返回。)”可知,绑架者绑架了盖蒂的孙子,并要求支付一大笔钱。故填TheytookGetty’sgrandsonandaskedformoney/demandedalotofmoney.。【44题详解】开放试题,言之有理即可。题干问“你认为盖蒂是一个慷慨的百万富翁吗?为什么?”,如果为肯定回答,可以从文章中最后一段“Heleftallhismoneytothemuseum.(他把所有的钱都留给了博物馆。)”中来解释:因为他把所有的钱都留给了博物馆并且为艺术界做出了巨大的贡献。如果答案为否定,可以从第四段中“Getty’ssonaskedhisfatherformoneytosavehischild.ButGettyrefused.(盖蒂的儿子向父亲要钱来救他的孩子,但是盖蒂拒绝了。)”解释为:因为他更关心自己的利益而不是他孙子的生命。我们不能说一个人是慷慨的,当他甚至不关心家庭成员之间的感情。故填Yes,becauseheleftallhismoneytothemuseumandmadegreatcontributionstotheartworld./No,becausehecaredmoreabouthisowninterestthanhisgrandson’slife.Wecan’tsayoneisgenerouswhenheisevenunconcernedabouttheaffectionamongfamilymembers.。第二节书面表达(共25分)从A、B中任选一篇,根据写作要求,写出一篇连贯完整的短文。请先将所选作文在答题卡相应区域A或B涂黑,再将作文写在答题卡上。A45.参考阅读理解B篇和阅读回答问题中的文章,介绍一位名人成功的经历以及你从中获得的体会和感悟。注意:词数不少于60。
