检测时的恐惧。她制作这些手指偶不为赚钱，只是希望它们能够为孩子们带去欢乐。由此可推断，Helen是一个心地善良、乐于助人的人。C28.A推理判断题。根据第二段中的Ilaterlearnedthattwoplayers...ambulancetoarrive和IknowthatIamveryluckytohavemymomhere可知，那两名球员通过心肺复苏术救了作者的母亲，因此作者非常感激他们。29.D细节理解题。根据第三段中的MymomhasusedthisexperiencetospreadthewordaboutCPR以及作者的妈妈参加了几项活动可知，她康复后变成了一名积极的心肺复苏术宣传者。30.B细节理解题。根据第四段中的Justoneortwodaysofhealthclasseachyearwillensurethateverystudentinthestatewilllearnthisimportantskill.Thistrainingisalsonearlyfree可知，CPR培训花费的时间和费用都很少。31.C推理判断题。根据最后一段中的asmymomsays,“Youdon’tneedalittlecardtosavesomeone’slife.”可知，作者的母亲应该会认为，心肺复苏术的技能比这种技术的证书更重要。D32.C细节理解题。根据第一段中的usinghertalentasanartist以及第二段中的BriaNeff’senthusiasmdevelopedwhen...InternationalFundforAnimalWelfare可知，BriaNeff热衷于绘画。33.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的Shedecidedtocreatepaintingsoftheendangeredanimals,sell...worktoconservethosespecies可知，BriaNeff画动物的初衷是为了保护濒临灭绝的动物。34.B推理判断题。根据第二段中的Inthelastthreeyearsshehasdevotedmorethan500hourstothetask:painting,researching,educatingandraisingawarenessofendangeredanimals及第三段中的Shehassoldover250paintingsofendangeredanimals可知，BriaNeff花费了很多时间在保护动物这项公益事业上，而且她还创作了很多画。由此可见，她是一个热爱公益、勤奋多产的画家。35.A标题归纳题。BriaNeff把卖画赚来的钱都捐赠给了动物保护组织，她还出版了两本有教育意义的书，从而让动物园的动物受益，她的所作所为也激励了很多人。由此可见，她所付出的努力为保护动物起到了重要的作用，也让她的画作变得意义非凡。A项符合该主旨，最适合作标题。第二节36.A设空处在文中起承上启下的作用。A项中的they指代的是上文中的Scientists，this指代的是上文中的it’sallbecauseofourgenes这一研究发现。37.E设空处在文中起承上启下的作用。E项中的DNA是下文中gene的基本成分，answers是.上文中科学家askedthemquestions所得到的回答。38.B设空处承接前文，与下文呼应。B项中的Thisgene指代上文中的PER3gene，long 和short在下文中有原词复现，下文是对这两种基因的解释说明。39.F下文是对设空处的解释说明。下文中的weshouldtrytochangeourworkinghourstofitour“bodyclock”是对F项问题的解释说明。40.G设空处与上文构成因果关系。G项中的seventothree与上文中的youcouldstartworkearlyandfinishearly相呼应，twelvetoeight与上文中的startworkintheafternoonandworkuntillateatnight相呼应。第三部分第一节41.D根据空后的hetradedbowtiesforcandiesintheschoolplayground可知，Moziah还很“小（young）”的时候，就在学校用领结跟同学们换糖果。42.C43.A根据上文中的youngMoziahBridgeshasagiftforfashion可知，Moziah“强烈的（strong）”时尚感使得他把精力集中在“穿着（dressingup）”方面的天赋上。44.B根据文中对Moziah成立自己的公司卖领结的描述可知，Moziah最“喜欢（loved）”的是领结。45.A根据空后的hefeltthatnoneofhisbowtiesattractedyoungpeople可知，但“问题（problem）”是Moziah发现他制作的领结并没有吸引到年轻的顾客。46.C47.B根据本段中的step及tiesthataresuitablefortheyoung可知，Moziah的“下（next）”一步计划就是“制作出（create）”适合年轻人佩戴的领结。48.A49.C根据本段中的...hisgrandmothertoteachhimhowtosew及worked...toimprove可知，Moziah“请求（asked）”奶奶教他如何缝纫，然后“不知疲倦地（tirelessly）”工作以不断提高自己。50.D根据本段中的Thecolorful,handmadeties...onmajornetworks及下文中对Moziah的公司开得很成功的描述可知，Moziah的手工领结颜色艳丽、款式帅气，很快就在各大主流网络媒体上大受“欢迎（popularity）”。51.B52.A根据本段中的ofmakingtheworldafunand...place可知，设计出漂亮的领结只是Moziah把世界变成有趣的、“更快乐的（happier）”地方的“梦想（dream）”的一部分。.53.C54.B根据本段中的There’sevenaguidesuggesting...tieaMo’sBow及menofallages可知，网站上还有一份关于如何“恰当地（properly）”系领结的指导建议，各个年龄段的男士都能从中“学到（learnfrom）”东西。55.D56.A根据本段中的ontheNBCrealityTVseries“SharkTank”attheageof11，increasing...popularityofhisproducts及hehasearnedover$165,000fromhisbusiness可知， Moziah还因在11岁时“参加（appeared）”SharkTank而出名，他在该节目，上努力提高产品的“销量(sales)”及受欢迎的程度。57.B58.C根据本段中的She...metobethebest可知，Moziah把自己的“成功（success）”全部归功于他的奶奶，因为就像他说的，他的奶奶一直“鼓励（pushes）”他做到最好。59.D根据本段中的MoziahsoldhisGoMobowtie及togivetoGlenviewSummerCamp可知，Moziah卖掉了GoMobowtie，“筹集到（raised）”1,600美元，并把这笔钱捐给了GlenviewSummerCamp。60.B根据本段中的thecampcostsfor10kids及Moziah’snextplanistohelpmorepeopleinneed可知，Moziah捐赠的1,600美元足够为十个孩子“支付（cover）”他们参加该夏令营的费用。第二节61.islocated考查一般现在时的被动语态。由语境可知，设空处是对现在情况的描述，应用一般现在时，又因为TheLondonEye与locate之间是被动关系，故填islocated。62.organised考查动词-ed形式作定语的用法。设空处作后置定语修饰competition，又因为organise与competition之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填organised。63.themselves考查代词。byoneself意为“独自地”。64.where考查关系副词。设空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词place，且在从句中作地点状语，故填where。65.Originally考查副词。设空处作状语修饰scheduled，表示“原先”，故填Originally。66.of考查介词。becauseof...意为“因为……”。67.Tomake考查不定式作状语的用法。安装装饰性的LED照明系统是为了让伦敦眼看，上去更迷人，故填Tomake。68.attractive考查形容词作补语的用法。设空处作补语，表示“吸引人的，迷人的”，故填attractive。69.passengers考查名词复数。passenger是可数名词，且由前面的25可知，应填名词复数形式passengers。70.as考查固定搭配。as...as...意为“和……一样……”。第四部分第一节Wesetoffveryearlierinthemorning.MybrotherandIsatinthebackseatofDad’soldcar.Wewereexcitedearlybecauseofweweregoingto∧countrysidetopickapples.Whenwegotthere,wesawhundredsoftreesfillingwith删除ofthefilled
