Secure it to lamp posts or trees.”（你离开时一定要锁好自行车。把它固定在灯柱或树上）可知，此处提供了关于你离开时如何锁自行车的信息。故A选项正确。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据Marking部分的“The security marking of your bike can act as a prevention of being stolen, which can also help the police find your bicycle.”（自行车的安全标记可以防止被偷，也可以帮助警察找到你的自行车）可知，给自行车做标记一定能保证你的自行车不被偷的陈述是错误的。故C选项正确。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据Registration部分的“There are many companies that will offer the security marking to your bicycle.”及Attention部分的“Keep a record of the bicycle by yourself”可知，这篇文章建议你通过自己或提供安全标记的公司记录自己的自行车信息。故C选项正确。【4题详解】细节理解题。通读全文可知，文章提到了个人的登记号码和个人资料、自行车的生产地点和地址、自行车的类型和图片，但是没有提及你买的锁和自行车店老板的建议。故B选项正确。【点睛】细节事实理解题主要考查考生对文章中某一些特定细节或文章的重要事实的理解能力。它一般包括直接理解题和语义理解题两种。直接理解题的答案与原文直接挂钩，从阅读材料中可以找到。此外，在阅读中可以使用定位法与跳读法解决细节理解题。定位法即根据题干和选项所提供的信息直接从原文中找到相应的句子(即定位)，然后进行比较和分析(尤其要注意一些同义转换)，从而找出正确答案。跳读法即根据题干和选项所提供的信息跳读原文，并找到相关的句子(有时可能是几个句子)或段落，然后进行分析和推理等，从而找出正确答案。以本文第1小题为例，运用定位法：我们根据题干中“the information on how to lock your bicycle when you leave”（你离开时如何锁自行车的信息），其关键词是how to lock your bicycle when you leave，从而直接定位到Basic Security部分的“Always lock your bicycle when you leave.”再根据其后的“Secure it to lamp posts or trees.”（把它固定在灯柱或树上）可知，文章的这一部分提供了关于你离开时如何锁自行车的信息。从而得出正确答案。BGrandpa worked as a carpenter(木匠) in downtown Chicago. He loved lifeespecially when he could play a trick(玩笑) on somebody. At those times, his large body shook with laughter while he pretended(伪装) innocent surprise. But on a cold Saturday, Grandpa felt that God played a trick on him, and Grandpa wasnt laughing.On this particular day, he was building some boxes for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage (孤儿院) abroad. On his way home, he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He remembered putting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church. His search proved fruitless.Suddenly, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the boxes, which he had nailed shut. His brand-new glasses were heading for India!The Great Depression(经济萧条) was at its height, and Grandpa had six children. He had spent twenty dollars for those glasses that very morning.“Its not fair,” he told God as he drove home in sadness. “Ive been very faithful in giving my time and money to your work, but now this.”Several months later, the director of the orphanage was on vacation in the United States. He wanted to visit all the churches that supported him, so he came to speak on Sunday night at my grandfathers small church in Chicago. Grandpa and his family sat in their usual seats among the workers in the church.“But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year.”“Even if I had the money, there was simply no way of replacing those glasses. Along with not being able to see well, I experienced headaches every day, so my coworkers and I were much in prayer about this. Then your boxes arrived. When my coworkers removed the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on the top.” After a long pause, he continued, “Folks, when I tried on the glasses, I was able to see things clearly again. It was as though the glasses had been custom-made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that！”The people working for the church listened, happy for the amazing glasses, but they thought the director surely must have confused(混淆) their church with another; they knew that there were no glasses on their list of items donated(捐赠) overseas.But sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, an ordinary carpenter realized God had used him in an unusual way.5. Which of the following is NOT true about Grandpa according to the passage?A. He was an outgoing man. B. He had a large family to support.C. He sent the glasses to India on purpose D. He believed in God.6. The people in the church except Grandpa felt surprised at what the director said because _.A. Grandpa didnt tell the director that he was the owner of the glassesB. the director wanted to return the glasses even though he liked itC. the director could not get such glasses in their own countryD. the glasses were not included in the donation list7. What does the underlined word “custom-made” mean mostly?A. made specially B. made by a churchC. made with the directors agreement D. made by a carpenter8. Which can be the best title of the passage?A. Grandfathers Life B. The Helpful DonationsC. The Perfect Mistake D. An Impressive Speech【答案】5. C 6. D 7. A 8. C【解析】本文为记叙文。作者的外公不小心把自己的眼镜装入捐赠衣物的箱子里送了出去，这副眼镜是外公新配的，当时家境并不富裕的外公感到很失落，希望把眼镜找回来。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the boxes, which he had nailed shut. His brand-new glasses were heading for India!”可知，祖父的新眼镜不小心滑落到要发送到印度的箱子里，并不是故意把眼镜发送到印度去的。故C选项正确。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“but they thought the director surely must have confused(混淆) their church with another; they knew that there were no glasses on their list of items donated(捐赠) overseas.”可知，主任一定感到很疑惑，他们想，在送往海外的物品名单中并没有眼镜。故D选项正确。【7题详解】词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句子句意“这副眼镜好像是专门为我定制的!”可知，画线词custom-made意为“定制的”。故A选项正确。【8题详解】标题判断题。通读全文，本文主要讲述了外公不小心把自己的眼镜送往了海外的孤儿院，却阴错阳差地帮助了别人，获得了感激的故事，所以C选项“The Perfect Mistake”（完美的错误）适合做本文最佳标题。故C选项正确。CIts really true what people say about English politeness: its everywhere. When squeezing(挤) past someone or passing through a crowd in a narrow place, people say “sorry”. When getting off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” rather than the driver. In Germany, people would never dream of doing these things. After all, squeezing past others is sometimes unavoidable(不可避免的), and the bus driver is only doing his job. I used to think the same way, without questioning it, until I started traveling to the British Isles and came to appreciate(欣赏) some more polite ways of communicating with people, and here are some more polite ways of interacting with people in UK.People thank each other everywhere in England, all the time. When people buy something in a shop, customer and shop assistant in most cases thank each other twice or more. In Germany, it would be surprising to hear more than one thank you in such a conversation. British students thank their lecturers when leaving the room. English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs, which is different from Germans, who would normally think that paying their workers money is already enough.Another thing I observed during my stay was that English people rarely criticize(批评) others. Even when I was working and mistakes were pointed out to me, my employers repeated several times but none of their explanations were intended as scolding me. It has been my impression that by avoiding scolding, English people are making an effort to make others feel comfortable. This also is showed in other ways. British men still open doors for women, and British men are more likely to treat(请客) women to a meal than German men. However, I do need to point out here that this applies(适用于) to English men a bit more than it would to Scottish men! Yes, the latter are a bit mean(吝啬的).9. What is the authors feeling of English politeness?A. He thinks highly of it. B. He thinks little of it.C. He thinks it is unnecessary. D. He thinks it goes too far.10. What can be inferred from the passage?A. British men never treat a woman to dinner.B. British men think its unnecessary to say “thank you” to the bus driver.C. In Germany, employers often say “thank you” to employees for their job.D. Germans think it is unnecessary to thank workers because payment is enough.11. We can learn from the last paragraph that Scottish men _.A. like to fight with each other B. treat women more politely than English menC. are as generous as English men D. are unwilling to spend money for women12. The author develops the text through the method of _.A. telling stories B. making comparisons (对比)C. giving reasons D. doing scientific research (调查)【答案】9. A 10. D 11. D 12. B【解析】本文为介绍说明文。相比德国人和苏格兰人，英国人的礼貌无处不在。作者通过把英国人和德国人、苏格兰人相比较，来体现英国人的礼貌及绅士。【9题详解】推理判断题。通过第一段及全文可知，作者看到英国人的礼貌无处不在，起初他不以为然，认为有些事大可不必说客气话，但是在英国大不列颠岛的一次旅行改变了作者对英国人礼貌的看法。appreciate意为“欣赏”。故A选项正确。【10题详解】细节理解题。通过文中第二段最后一句话“English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs, which is different from Germans, who would normally think that paying their workers money is already enough.”可知，英国老板会感谢工人为自己做的工作。相反，德国老板却不会，因为他们觉得付给工人的钱已经足够了。所以D项与原文意思相符。故D选项正确。【11题详解】细节理解题。根据文中最后一段的后半部分可知，英国男士比德国男士更喜欢请女士吃饭，但是，作者同时指出这个规律相比苏格兰男士而言更适合英国男士，因为苏格兰男士有一些很吝啬，不愿意出钱。故D选项正确。【12题详解】细节理解题。通过全文可知，作者通过把英国人和德国人、苏格兰人相比较，来体现英国人的礼貌及绅士。故B选项正确。DIf youre tired of the big cities and sandy beaches; if you dont want to head to Disney again, perhaps its time for a summer holiday in space. Russia has declared(宣布) plans for its first floating hotel, 217 miles above earth, and it is something of an offering with good service.Hosting just seven guests in four cabins(座舱), the accommodation (膳宿) will include huge windows with views back to earth and tasty microwave meals will be served instead of the ones often used by astronauts.Just getting there will be an adventure in itselfit will take two days aboard a rocketand it wont exactly be a budget holiday: A five-day stay will cost you100, 000 to500, 000 for your journey. The hotel is due to open by 2019 and it will be far more comfortable than the International Space Station (ISS) used by astronauts and cosmonauts.In the weightlessness of space, visitors can choose to have beds that are either vertical(垂直的) or horizontal(水平的). Tourists, who will be accompanied by experienced astronauts, will dine on food prepared on Earth and sent up on the rocket, to be reheated in microwave ovens(炉子). Many kinds of delicious food will be offered.Iced tea, mineral water and fruit juices will be included, but alcohol will be strictly forbidden. Toilets will use flowing air instead of water to move waste through the system. Waste water will be recycled.Sergei Kostenko, chief executive of Orbital Technologies which will construct the hotel, said: “Our planned module inside will not remind you of the International Space Station. A hotel should be comfortable inside, and it will be possible to look at the Earth. The hotel will be aimed at wealthy individuals and people working for private companies who want to do research in space.” The hotel can also be used as an emergency shelter for astronauts aboard the International Space Station if there is a disaster.13. Which can be the best title of the passage?A. Russia has the advanced technology in exploring spaceB. The International Space Station is being built nowC. The astronauts will have a second home in spaceD. Russia declares the design for its first space hotel14. What does the underlined word “budget” in the 3rd paragraph mean?A. expensive B. excitingC. cheap D. uncomfortable15. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.

Many kinds of drinks are offered including alcohol.D. In the near future, a space trip for most of the people can be realized.【答案】13. D 14. C 15. B【解析】本文为介绍说明文。文章介绍了俄罗斯的太空旅馆计划。【13题详解】标题判断题。根据第一段中的“Russia has declared(宣布) plans for its first floating hotel, 217 miles above earth”可知，俄罗斯宣布了它的第一个太空旅馆的计划，接下来的段落是对这项计划的具体介绍，由此可知，D选项适合做本文最佳标题。故D选项正确。【14题详解】词义猜测题。根据下文“A five-day stay will cost you100, 000 to500, 000 for your journey.”（逗留5天的旅行将花费你10万到50万英镑）可知，划线词所在句意为“它可不是一个便宜的假期”。故C选项正确。【15题详解】细节理解题。根据第五、六段的描述可知，这个太空旅馆严禁饮酒、不会让你想起国际空间站、有可能看到地球；再根据上文中提到的“旅行价格昂贵”，所以不久的将来，大多数人实现太空之旅是不现实的。故C选项正确。第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。A great number of people can get injured or even killed resulting from a human stampede (踩踏).The bad thing is that a peaceful group of people can quickly become concerned and panicked(恐慌). _16_.
