d【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了国外留学的好处，大致列举了几个方面的原因，可以经历外国的风俗、节日、食物、艺术与音乐，可以增强自信心，还能帮你适应大学和成年期的过渡。此外，文章还列举了几个人物的例子，分别对应说明了国外留学的好处，通过这些来劝说人们加入到国外留学的计划中来。1. 推理判断题。根据“one reason to study abroad is that you will experience new customs, holidays, food, art and music”出国留学的原因之一是你会经历新的风俗、节日、食物、艺术与音乐，之后“another reason for studying abroad is that youll gain self-confidence”另一个留学的原因是你获得了自信，以及“living away from home can also help you adjust in the transition to college and adulthood”离家生活也能帮助你适应大学和成年期的过渡，可以得出本文主要描述了三个在国外留学的原因。故选b。2. 细节理解题。根据“he said：“i learned french and now i can speak french fluently. when i was in france, i learned about cultures, people and myself. i learned a lot from the stand of a native member of the country, not from a tourists stand.” andrew学习了法语并且现在可以流利的说法语，当他在法国的时候，他学习了文化、人物和他自己，他是以本国人的立场学到很多东西，而不是以一个旅游者的角度，d选项强调学习当地的文化，文中突出的就是他在法国时以当地人的立场学到很多东西。 a选项和c选项在文中有关andrew的事迹中没有提及，b选项强调的是在旅行过程中，不合题意。故选d。3. 推理判断题。根据第一段中“if you want, consider a study-abroad program”如果你乐意，考虑一下国外留学计划，以及分析全文，主要围绕在国外留学的好处可知，文章的目的就是为了劝说大家加入到国外留学的计划中来。故选d。btrapped under ruins after the iran earthquake, dan woolley believed he was going to die. but rather than giving up, the film-maker managed to look up ways to treat his injuries on his iphone beneath the earth. he also wrote a moving diary for his family, allowing them to read his last

iran with his colleague david hames. both had been working for charity compassion international. he was in the hotel when the earthquake struck. buried under tons of ruins, the film-maker downloaded a

wrote a moving diary for his family, allowing them to read his last messages of love and comforting them after his death”以及“mr woolley used a small black notebook to write messages to his family” 可知，他为他的家庭写了充满爱意和安慰性的遗言。故选d。5. 细节理解题。根据“buried under tons of ruins, the film-maker downloaded a first aid application to his iphone. he used the instructions from the app to treat the serious bleeding. he used his shirt to tie off the injury on his leg and a sock to bandage the back of his head.”可知，他先是被埋在废墟下，其次为他的手机下载了急救应用软件，然后按照应用程序的指示治疗了严重出血的地方，最后用他的衬衣包扎了腿部和头部后面的伤口。所以顺序应该是a、b、d、c。故选a。6. 细节理解题。根据“dan woolley believed he was going to die.”以及 “i always wanted to survive, but i knew that was something that i couldnt control.”可知他没有自信能够存活下来，根据“he was in the hotel when the earthquake struck.”可知地震爆发的时候他在酒店而不是在制作电影，根据 “ after being flown to miami for surgery”可知他是飞往迈阿密做手术，而不是在伊朗医院，根据“ mr. woolley set his phone alarm to go off every 20 minutes to keep him awake.”可知他为手机设置了每20分钟响一次的闹铃来使他保持清醒。故选d。7. 推理判断题。纵览全文，文章主要是围绕woolley通过手机学习急救的知识，学习处理伤口的办法，并通过手机设置闹铃来让自己保持清醒，最后在地震中存活了下来。文章最后一段“new technology really played a huge part in our life.”也通过说明科技的重要性，可以推断出手机的重要性。故选c。cthe game of rugby football was played at rugby school between 1750 and 1859, but players were not allowed to run with it in their hands towards the other sides goal. with no limit to the number of players per side, hundreds would participate in it, sometimes resulting in major injuries. the innovation(创新) of running with the ball was introduced between 1859 and 1865. the popular myth of the sports origin states that rugby pupil william webb ellis broke the local rules by running forward with the ball in his hands in 1823. rugby school produced the first written rules for their version of the sport in 1845.in the result that the teams still tied at the end of the match, a drop goal shootout was held. the selected kickers of the two teams would have one shot at the goal each and would take turns shooting at the goal until one of the kickers missed.in england, rugby union is widely regarded as an “establishment” sport, played mostly by members of the upper and middle classes. for example, many students at private schools and grammar schools play in rugby union. in france, rugby is also widely played and has a strong tradition in the basque people along the border regions between spain and france. the game is very popular in south africa among both blacks and whites, having been introduced by english-speaking settlers in the 19th century. british colonists also brought the game with them to australia and new zealand, where the game is widely played. it has spread then to much of polynesia, having particularly strong followings in fiji, samoa, and tonga.an official rugby union ball is made of leather or suitable material. rugby shirts were formerly made of cotton but are now made of a cotton and polyester (涤纶) mix. this material has the advantage of not absorbing as much water or mud as cotton alone.8. which of the following statements is wrong about the ancient rugby?a. players often got injured.b. a great number of people could take part.c. players could run forward with the ball in their hands before 1823.d. written rules were first made in rugby school in the 1840s.9. why was a drop goal shootout made?a. to select outstanding players.b. to encourage the audiences curiosity.c. to make the match exciting.d. to decide the winner of the match.10. the third paragraph mainly talks about _.a. the popularity of rugby sportb. how rugby union was established in englandc. how british people spread the sportd. the origin and development of rugby11. rugby shirts made of cotton alone _.a. are easy to absorb much water and mudb. are replaced by polyester shirt finallyc. are much more expensive than polyesterd. are much suitable to the players【答案】8. c 9. d 10. a 11. a【解析】本文是一篇说明文。通过介绍橄榄球的起源、规则的创新、橄榄球在哪些国家受欢迎，以及橄榄球服的制作材料的改进，使我们对橄榄球有了一定程度的了解。8. 细节理解题。根据“the popular myth of the sports origin states that rugby pupil william webb ellis broke the local rules by running forward with the ball in his hands in 1823.”可知，在1823年橄榄球运动员william webb ellis用手向前击球打破了当地的规则，出现了这项运动起源的流行神话，所以在1823年之前运动员们用手击球。故选c。9. 细节理解题。根据“in the result that the teams still tied at the end of the match, a drop goal shootout was held.”结果在比赛结束时两队仍然是平手，所以又举行了一次落球比赛。这样做的目的当然是为选出胜出的一方。故选d。10. 推理判断题。根据第三段可以看出主要通过描写橄榄球运动项目在英国、法国、南非、澳大利亚、新西兰等地都有出现，可以推断出橄榄球运动很受欢迎。故选a。11. 细节理解题。根据“this material has the advantage of not absorbing as much water or mud as cotton alone.”可知，这种材料的优点是不会像棉花那样吸较多的水或泥浆，所以如果橄榄球服只用棉花这一样材料的时候，会容易吸入水或泥浆。故选a。【名师点睛】阅读理解旨在考查考生对于文章整体的理解与细节的分析与把握，要在了解整篇文章框架的基础上进行选择。本篇题目在仔细阅读文章后都能够得出答案。例如第3小题推理判断题，可以用排除法。在第三段中，我们可以看出它提及到英国人创建了橄榄球运动，但只是点到了一句，没有提及如何创建，排除b，也提及到它在很多地方传播，但没有提及英国人是如何传播这项运动的，排除c，这一段中也没有提及橄榄球的起源与发展，排除d，根据第三段可以看出主要通过描写橄榄球运动项目在英国、法国、南非、澳大利亚、新西兰等地都有出现，可以推断出橄榄球运动很受欢迎。故选a。dweekend
