答案和解析
1~3.【答案】D、D、A
【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据PaintedDeSert,PetrifiedForestNationalPark,AZ中的ThiSiSfree
camping,wildcamping.（这是免费的，野外露营。）可知，石化森林国家公园露营地不收费。故
选D。
（2）细节理解题。根据WatChmanCamPgroUnd,ZionNationalPark,UT中的NOte,however,that
thiscampgroundisextremelypopular.ReservationsareabsolutelyrecommendedfromMarchthrough
November.（不过请注意，这个露营地非常受欢迎。从3月到11月绝对建议预订。）可知，如果
你去守望者营地，你需要在旺季预订场地。故选D。
营地）及四个国家公园的介绍可知，这四个国家公园共同之处在于都是户外帐篷营地。
A.C）UtdoortentCamPSiteS.户外帐篷营地；B.EnOUghCamPingeqUiPment.足够的露营装备；
C.COnVenienttraffiCCOnditiOnS.便利的交通条件；D.EnVironmentaIWarningSignS.环境警告标志。
故选A0
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅
进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。三、逻
辑推理，做好深层理解题。在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，
面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer,
imply,suggest,indicate等。四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它
不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要
学会“顺藤摸瓜”，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
47.【答案】B、A、B、C
【解析】（I）细节理解题。根据第二段中HOWCanhemakethemStandfirmHebeginsbybalancing
fourcardstoformaboxwitharmsstickingout,whichformsagrid.Thenherepeatsthegridoverandover,
expandingoutward,tobuildasolidbase.Afterthat,Bryanlayscardsaroundtheedgeandthenacrossthe
toptomakethefloorforthenextstoryofthebuilding.（他怎能使他们站立得住呢？他首先平衡四张
卡片，形成一个盒子，手臂伸出来，形成一个网格。然后他一遍又一遍地重复网格，向外扩展，
以建立一个坚实的基础。之后，布莱恩把卡片铺在边缘，然后铺在顶部，为建筑的下一层铺好地
板）可知，重复的网格是让布莱恩的纸牌建筑屹立不倒的基础。故选B项。
（2）段落大意题。根据第三段中Interestinglyenough,Bryandidnotgettheideafromanyofthe
physicalbooks.Instead,hediscoveredtheuniquewaytobuildsolidstructuresusingatrickfrom
nature.Thesecretisplantcells.Plantcellshavehardwallsandfittogethertightlytoformagridthathelps
leavesandstemstokeeptheirshape.Beesusethesamekindofpatterntocreatehoneycombs.Bryan
borrowedthisideatoinventrepeatinggridsofcardCellS.（有趣的是，布莱恩并没有从任何一本实体
书中得到这个想法。相反，他发现了利用大自然的技巧建造坚固结构的独特方法。秘密在于植物
细胞。植物细胞有坚硬的细胞壁，紧密地结合在一起形成网格，帮助叶子和茎保持形状。蜜蜂用
同样的模式来建造蜂巢。布莱恩借鉴了这个想法，发明了重复的纸牌单元格）可知，本段主要讲
B.Bryan'sspecificbuildingProCeSS.布莱恩的具体建造过程；
C.Bryan'scomprehensiveknowledgeOfbiOIogy.布莱恩全面的生物学知识；
D.Thesimilaritybetweenplantcellsandhoneycombs.植物细胞和蜂巢的相似性。故选A项。
（3）推理判断题。根据第四段中OUtofcuriosity,peoplewhocometoseethecardbuildingssometimes
pushandpoketoseeiftheyhaveclipsinside,butfindtheydon't!Once,whenBryanbuiltacardcastleat
DisneyWorld,birdskepttryingtolandonil.Asquirrelmanagedtotakedownonewallanddidplentyof
damageinside.But,amazingly,thecastledidn,tcollapse.（出于好奇，来参观卡牌建筑的人有时会
推推揉揉，看看里面是否有夹子，但发现没有!有一次，布莱恩在迪士尼世界搭了一个纸牌城堡，
鸟儿们一直想降落在上面。一只松鼠成功地推倒了一面墙，并在里面造成了很大的破坏。但令人
惊讶的是，城堡并没有倒塌）可推知，本段提到迪士尼纸牌城堡是为了证明布莱恩牌的力量是有
效的。故选B项。
（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段中Ialsoleamalotfromtakingthemapart—thedestructionshowsme
wheretheweakpointsare.Thatiswhatmynextstrongerbuildingsreallyneed.（我也从拆卸它彳门中学至∣J
了很多东西——破坏告诉我弱点在哪里。这是我的下一个更坚固的建筑真正需要的）可知，布莱
恩学到了自己不足的地方，然后下次改进。由此推知，布莱恩在最后一段表达的人生哲学是：一
个人只有超越自我，才能完善自己。故选C项。
的感悟。
学会“顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
8~11.【答案】CxBxAsC
【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段ItlSsomethingthattheAmericansingerTaylorSwiftdoesagood
jobofmakingherFrenchsoundrealisticinfrontoffansduringhertours."Aforeignaccentisapieceof
cakeforthesingers."saysSusanneReilerer,anurolinguisticsresearcheratViennaUniversity.（美国
歌手泰勒斯威夫特在巡演期间就擅长在歌迷面前使她的法语听起来逼真。"外国口音对歌手来说
是小菜一碟。“维也纳大学的神经语言学研究员苏珊娜韦勒说。）可知，在第一段中，作者想告
诉我们泰勒斯威夫特模仿语言的能力。故选C。
（2）词句猜测题。根据划线词后半句thenyouhavemorepowerbasicallyinyourhearingareas.（那
么你的听觉区域就会更强大。）可知，如果一个人在音乐方面有很强的倾向，那么其听觉区域就
会更强大。所以predisposition为"倾向；条件”之意。A.Interest.兴趣；B.ConditiOn.条件；C.Training.
训练；D.KnOWledge.知识O故选Bo
（3）推理判断题。根据第二段Reiterer1Steamfoundthatsingershadanadvantageoverinstrumentalists
inforeignlanguageimitation,butbothsingersandinstrumentalistsoutperformednon-musicians.（韦勒
的研究小组发现，歌手在模仿外语方面比乐器演奏者更有优势，但歌手和乐器演奏者的表现都优
于非音乐家。）和第三段“Sincetalkingusesthesamebiologicalmakeupassinging,thetwomustbe
