这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了今年夏天值得一看的四部影视作品。

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。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。

二、看题干，带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，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，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、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。

我们在做完形填空时，首先需要快速的浏览全文，把握文章的主旨大意；其次要学会带着问题到文中相应的地方，通过细节阅读来寻找或概括答案；最后理清作者的写作思路也非常重要；做此类题时，要多注意一些形容词或动词的搭配，在平时多积累一些固定搭配。

4~7.【答案】C、D、C、B【解析】（1）C．细节理解题。根据第一段Toknowwhatbraillefeelslike，takeaballpointpenandpresshardontoapieceofpaper.Nowturnthepaperoverandtouchtheraiseddotmadebythepenpoint.要了解盲文的感觉，请拿一支圆珠笔并用力压在一张纸上。现在，将纸张翻转过来，然后触摸笔尖产生的凸起点。可知，作者通过让读者亲身感受的方式解释盲文是什么。故选C。

（2）D．推理判断题。根据第二段WhenLeefirstsawthedotsofthebraillealphabet，shewonderedifshe'deverbeabletoreadandwritethemeasily.当Lee第一次看到盲文字母的点时，她想知道自己是否能够轻松阅读和书写它们。可知，描述Lee对盲文的第一反应是为了表明Lee觉得它很难学会。故选D。

（3）C．词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段Sometimes，goingoverastoryagainandagaingetstiring.That'swhenLeetakesabreak.有时，一次又一次地重复一个故事会很累。Lee会休息一下；Whentheanimalsaren'tworking，Leelikesspendingafewminuteswiththem.当动物不工作时，Lee喜欢和他们玩几分钟。可知，对她来说和狗一起玩一直是中午时段能令人放松的时刻。C项"Somethingtohelprestoreone'sspirit.（可以帮助恢复精力的东西。）符合题意。故选C。

（4）B．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Sometimes，goingoverastoryagainandagaingetstiring.有时，一次又一次地重复一个故事会很累；最后一段Throughmybrainpowerandmyfingers，Iamputtingthedotsintosomekid'shands.通过我的脑力和手指，我将盲文的圆点送到了一些孩子的手中。意在表明作者认为她的工作是累人但有意义的。A.Profitableandhopeful.  有利可图的和充满希望的；B.Tiringbutmeaningful  令人疲劳的但是有意义的；C.Relaxingandhelpful  放松的和有帮助的；D.Boringbutchallenging  无聊但富有挑战性。故选B。

本文是一篇日常生活类阅读，主要讲述了JennyLee和其他盲文转录员成功使用电脑程序将故事文字转换为盲文的经历。

做这类题材的阅读理解时要求考生对文章先通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。做题时要在抓住关键句子的基础上进行合理地分析，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。

8~11.【答案】A、B、D、C【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段We

can

recognize

our

friends'

face.Many

social

animals

can

also

identify

individuals

of

their

own

species

by

their

facial

features.（我们可以认出朋友的脸。许多群居动物还可以通过面部特征来识别同类）可推断，识别面孔的能力，这不是人类独有的能力。故选A。

（2）推理判断题。根据第二段Scientists

have

also

wondered

whether

domesticated

animals

that

have

coexisted

with

people

for

thousands

of

years

can

recognize

different

human

faces.Léa

Lansade

of

France's

National

Research

Institute

for

Agriculture，Food

and

Environment

is

one

of

them.Her

experiment

on

horses

provides

insight

into

this.（科学家们还想知道，与人类共存了数千年的家养动物是否能识别不同的人脸。法国国家农业、食品和环境研究所的Léa

Lansade就是其中之一。她在马身上的实验提供了深入的见解）并结合第三段实验的内容可知，Léa

Lansade和她的团队做实验是为了研究马识别人脸的能力。A．To

teach

horses

to

recognize

human

faces.教马识别人脸；B．To

study

horses'

ability

to

identify

human

faces.研究马识别人脸的能力；C．To

make

horses

distinguish

between

their

keepers.让马区分它们的主人；D．To

figure

out

similarities

between

man

and

horses.找出人和马的相似之处。故选B。

（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段So

maybe

think

twice

before

doing

anything

at

a

stable（马厩）

that

might

give

a

horse

a

long

face.After

all，the

horse

could

probably

"remember"

you.（所以，在马厩里做任何可能让马拉长脸的事情之前，也许要三思。毕竟，马可能会"记得"你）可推断，作者在最后一段使用了比较幽默的口吻来行文。A．Academic.学术的；B．Dramatic.戏剧性的；C．Cautious.谨慎的；D．Humorous.幽默的。故选D。

（4）标题归纳题。根据第一段And

research

has

shown

that

some

species

of

monkeys，birds，and

domesticated（驯养的）

animals

can

even

distinguish

among

different

faces

by

looking

at

photographs

alone.（研究表明，一些种类的猴子、鸟类和家养动物甚至可以仅通过看照片来区分不同的面孔）、最后一段So

maybe

think

twice

before

doing

anything

at

a

stable（马厩）

that

might

give

a

horse

a

long

face.After

all，the

horse

could

probably

"remember"

you.（所以，在马厩里做任何可能让马拉长脸的事情之前，也许要三思。毕竟，马可能会"记得"你）及全文可知，文章主要讲的是研究发现驯养的马通过看照片就可以认出自己的饲养者。所以"Horses

Recognize

Keepers'

Pictures（马能认出饲养员的照片）"作为文章标题最为合适。故选C。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍一项研究表明，驯养的马通过看照片就可以区分不同的人。

12~15.【答案】D、C、A、A【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第二段Bloodtransfusionsaren'tassimpleastakingbloodfromonepersonandgivingittosomeoneelse.There'reseveraldifferentbloodtypesthatdon'tallmixwell.Ifsomeonegetsatransfusionofthewrongkindofblood，theirbodywillrejectthebloodcells，causingproblems.Forthefirsttimeever，scientistsfromtheUniversityofBristol，Britain，arecarryingoutanewtrail：testingredbloodcellsgrowninalaboratoryonhumanvolunteers.Thescientistshaveusedstemcells（干细胞）fromabloodsampletogrowbillionsofbrandnewredbloodcells.（输血并不像从一个人身上取血给另一个人那么简单。有几种不同的血型并不能很好地混合在一起。如果有人输错了血，他们的身体就会排斥血细胞，造成问题。英国布里斯托尔大学的科学家们首次进行了一项新的试验：测试在实验室里培养的人类志愿者的红细胞。科学家们利用血液样本中的干细胞培育出数十亿个全新的红细胞）可知，输血并不像想象的那么简单，且不同血型不能很好的混合，输错了血可能造成问题。由此推知，科学家进行实验的目的是找到一种新的输血方式——红细胞输血，以避免这些问题。故选D。

（2）细节理解题。根据第三段中的The

the

lab

are

brand

new，and

this

means

they

last

longer

and

that

patients

will

need

fewer

transfusions.（在实验室中生长的红细胞是全新的，这意味着它们的持续时间更长，患者需要的输血更少）可知，在实验室中的红细胞的优势是它们是全新的，因此对患者有效的时间更长。故选C。

（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段的And

a

done.

（还有很多工作和测试需要完成）可知，该研究还有很长的路要走。故选A。

（4）主旨大意题。根据首段中的For

transfusions

usually

include

（英国布里斯托大学的科学家有史以来第一次在人类志愿者身上测试实验室中生长的红细胞。科学家们使用来自血液样本的干细胞来培养数十亿个全新的红细胞）可知，本文主要讲述的是科学家在实验室研发的一种红细胞输血方式。由此可知，The

transfusions.两种输血方法的比较；C．An

transfusions.输血的费用。故选A。

本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍的是一种新的给患者输血的方式，即给患者提供红细胞，这种输血方式一旦成功，将会使得经常输血的患者，即使是那些具有稀有血型的患者的生活变的轻松。

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。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。

二、看题干，带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，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，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、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。

我们在做完形填空时，首先需要快速的浏览全文，把握文章的主旨大意；其次要学会带着问题到文中相应的地方，通过细节阅读来寻找或概括答案；最后理清作者的写作思路也非常重要；做此类题时，要多注意一些形容词或动词的搭配，在平时多积累一些固定搭配。

16~20.【答案】D、B、F、C、A【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据前文The

36-year-old

USactress

and

model

said

on

social

media

that

she"invented"the

selfie（自拍）

in

2006，posting

a

photo

of

her

and

Britney

Spears

as

"

proof

"（这位36岁的美国女演员兼模特2006年在社交媒体上说，自拍是她"发明的"，她发布了一张她和布兰妮•斯皮尔斯的照片作为"证据"）；以及后句They

posted

evidence

of

selfies

that

appeared

much

earlier

in

history（他们发布了历史上更早出现的自拍证据），可知表示"互联网用户立即证明她错了"的选项D可以起到承前启后的作用，They代指互联网用户，故选D。

（2）推理判断题。根据前一段的They

posted

evidence

of

selfies

that

appeared

much

earlier

in

history（他们发布了历史上更早出现的自拍证据）；以及前文But

perhaps

the

funniest

example

was

a

black-and-white

selfie

that

was

taken

by

American

photographer

Robert

Cornelius

in

1839（但也许最有趣的例子是美国摄影师罗伯特•科尼利厄斯1839年拍摄的一张黑白自拍照），可知表示"这很可能是有史以来第一张自拍"的选项B可以承接前文，介绍哪一个才是第一张自拍照，故选B。

（3）推理判断题。根据前文Why

do

people

love

to

take

selfies

so

much？Is

it

because

we're

naturally

vain（虚荣的）

and

proud（为什么人们如此喜欢自拍？是因为我们天生虚荣和自豪吗），可知表示"也许事实恰恰相反——也许我们感到不安全或害羞"的选项F可以承接前文，构成转折关系，介绍喜欢自拍的真正原因，故选F。

（4）主题判断题。根据后文For

example，if

you

take

one

while

you'

re

on

holiday

and

post

it

online，criminals

might

see

it

and

know

that
