she

was

just

9

years

old，Hilde

Lysiak

became

famous

across

the

United

States

for

reporting

on

difficult

news

stories.（当她只有9岁的时候，HildeLysiak因为报道困难的新闻故事而在美国闻名）以及第三段Following

the

rules

taught

by

her

father，she

researched

and

reported

stories

of

her

town

in

the

newspaper.In

2016，OSN

suddenly

became

famous

when

a

murder

happened

in

town，and

9-year-old

Hilde

was

the

first

person

to

report

it.（按照父亲教导的规则，她调查并在报纸上报道了她所在城镇的故事。2016年，镇上发生了一起谋杀案，OSN突然出名，9岁的Hilde是第一个报案的人。）可知作为镇上第一个报道谋杀案的人使席德的报纸一夜成名。故选B。

（2）推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容"Butsheneverletthatstopher.Hildecontinuedreporting.（但她从未让这阻止她。Hilde继续报道）"可判断，人们的抱怨指责没有阻止HildeLysiak继续报道，说明HildeLysiak是一个勇敢的人。故选D。

（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段In

April，the

book

Hilde

on

the

Record

came

out，in

which

Hilde

tells

her

own

story，both

the

（4）标题归纳题。根据第一段When

she

was

just

9

years

old，Hilde

Lysiak

became

famous

across

the

United

States

for

reporting

on

difficult

news

stories.（当她只有9岁的时候，HildeLysiak因为报道困难的新闻故事而在美国闻名）可知讲述了当只有9岁的HildeLysiak因报道困难的新闻故事而闻名于美国。现在，HildeLysiak写了一本书，讲述了她自己的故事，并分享了她面临的一些挑战。由此可知，短文的最佳标题为"C.A

Young

Reporter

Tells

Her

Own

Story年轻记者讲述自己的故事"。故选C。

本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了当只有9岁的HildeLysiak因报道困难的新闻故事而闻名于美国。现在，希尔德写了一本书，讲述了她自己的故事，并分享了她面临的一些挑战。

阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力，要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系，对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断；或根据作者所阐述的观点理论，对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释。考生首先要仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握作者观点。

8~11.【答案】A、C、B、A【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第二段中Floating

gardens

are

essentially

platforms

built

and

wrapped

in

coconut

husks

（椰子壳），and

filled

in

with

native

plantings.As

plants

grow，they

extend

their

roots

into

the

water.On

the

North

Branch

of

the

Chicago

River，non-profit

Urban

Rivers

and

its

partners

are

developing

a

mile-long

floating

eco-park

called

the

Wild

Mile.（漂浮花园本质上是用椰子壳包裹起来的平台，里面种满了本地植物。当植物生长时，它们的根会伸入水中。在芝加哥河的北支流，非营利组织"城市河流"及其合作伙伴正在开发一个长达一英里的漂浮生态公园，名为"野生一英里"。）可知，漂浮花园的用材是椰子壳，其功能是作为生态公园。由此推知，漂浮花园是环保的。故选A。

（2）细节理解题。根据第三段中The

primary

aim

of

the

floating

gardens

is

beautification.（漂浮花园的主要目的是美化。）可知，建造漂浮花园的主要目的是让周边环境更加美观。故选C。

（3）代词指代题。根据第四段中The

project

also

matches

well

with

Urban

Rivers'

broader

goals.

"The

city

is

interested

in

bettering

water

quality，"

says

Phil

Nicodemus，Urban

Rivers'

Director

of

Research.

"Happily，Illinois

State

took

part

in

it

later."（该项目也与"城市河流"更大的目标相匹配。"城市河流"研究主任Phil

Nicodemus说："这座城市对改善水质很感兴趣，令人高兴的是，伊利诺伊州立大学后来也加入了。"）可知，Phil

Nicodemus很高兴伊利诺伊州立大学参与了这个项目，it指代的是上文中提到的The

project。A．The

floating

garden.漂浮花园；B．The

project.这个项目；C．The

treatment

of

ponds.池塘的处理；D．The

quality

of

water.水质。故选B。

（4）标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了一项研究指出，美国伊利诺伊州的漂浮花园不但起到了美观的作用，而且能够有效改善水质。因此，A项"漂浮花园：不止于美丽"可概括文章大意，适合作为文章标题。故选A。

本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项研究指出，美国伊利诺伊州的漂浮花园不但起到了美观的作用，而且能够有效改善水质。

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。

12~15.【答案】C、C、B、A【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句Fortunately，JapaneseresearchersatTokyo'sMeijiUniversityandthemanufacturerKirinhavedevelopedhigh-techchopsticksthatenhancesaltytastes，potentiallyhelpingthosewhoneedtoreducesodiumintheirdiets.（幸运的是，日本东京明治大学的研究人员和制造商麒麟开发出了一种高科技筷子，可以增强咸味，可能会帮助那些需要减少饮食中钠含量的人。）可知，这种高科技筷子的功能是帮助减少食盐摄入量。故选C。

（2）推理判断题。根据第三段第一句Accordingtotheresearchteam，thebasicprincipleisthattheextrasaltyflavorisperceivedduetoextremelyweakelectriccurrentsconveyeddirectlyintothemouththroughthetipofoneofthechopsticks.（据研究小组介绍，其基本原理是，通过其中一根筷子的尖端直接进入口腔的极弱电流会让人感受到额外的咸味。）可知，这种高科技筷子是通过让大脑感受额外的咸味来发挥其功能的。故选C。

（3）词义猜测题。根据第四段前两句Anddothesechopsticksworkasexpected？To

verifytheeffectofthenewchopsticks，theresearchersconductedanexperimentonatotalof36participantsaged40to65，allofwhomwereeatingalow-sodiumdiet.（这些筷子像预期的那样好用吗？为了证明新筷子的效果，研究人员对36名年龄在40到65岁之间的参与者进行了一项实验，他们都在吃低钠饮食。）可知，划线词是"证明，证实"的意思。A.Improve提高，改善；B.Confirm证实；C.Change改变；D.Strengthen加强。故选B。
