the

Language

of

the

Trees

》这本书最适合对科学感兴趣的孩子。故选D。

（3）推理判断题。根据文章Rez

another（当新冠肺炎来袭时，玛莲正在拜访她的祖父母。正是在马莉安的祖父母的故事中，她了解到她的家乡社区的人们总是互相照顾）可知《雷兹狗》这本书有与疫情有关的图片。故选C。

（4）目的意图题。根据文章第一段Want

to

read

a

perfect

children's

book？Explore

some

recommendations

from

trusted

critics（想看一本完美的童书？探索一些值得信赖的评论家的建议）可知本文的目的是推荐一些儿童读物。故选A。

（5）文章出处题。根据文章第一段Want

read

a

perfect

children's

book？Explore

some

recommendations

from

trusted

critics（想看一本完美的童书？探索一些值得信赖的评论家的建议）可知本文推荐了一些儿童读物。说明文章应该出自一本杂志上。A.A

research

paper.一篇研究论文；B.A

magazine.一本杂志；C.A

literature

review.文献综述；D.A

travel

journal.旅游杂志。故选B。

本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了一些儿童读物。

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。

6~10.【答案】B、D、C、A、A【解析】（1）猜测词义题。根据文章第一段Ida

Keeling's

daughter，Cheryl，a

lifelong

athlete，thought

that

maybe

what

would

pull

her

mother

out

from

under

her

dark

cloud

was

something

that

would

get

her

pumping

again.She

suggested

a

run.Not

just

a

jog

around

the

block，but

an

official

run.（艾达•基林的女儿谢丽尔是一名终身运动员，她认为也许能让母亲走出阴霾的东西会让她重新振作起来。她建议跑步。不仅仅是在街区附近的一次巡逻，而是一次正式的跑步。）可知get

herpumping的意思是"让她充满活力"。A.Free

her

from

great

pressure.让她摆脱巨大的压力；B.Fill

her

with

life

and

energy

.让她充满活力；C.Equip

her

with

self-confidence.让她充满自信；D.Remind

her

of

her

problems.提醒她她的问题。故选B。

（2）推理判断题。根据文章第二段She

had

lost

her

husband

early

to

a

heart

attack，and

two

of

her

four

children

-both

of

her

sons-

died

in

unsolved

drug-related

incidents

in

1978

and

1981.（她很早就因心脏病失去了丈夫，四个孩子中的两个她的两个儿子分别在1978年和1981年死于与毒品有关的悬案。）可知因为失去了丈夫和儿子，基林患上了严重抑郁症。故选D。

（3）细节理解题。根据文章第五段She

hasn't

stopped

running

since，and

it's

no

longer

the

tough

work

it

was

during

that

first

meet.Since

then，the

small

Keeling

has

set

records

for

60

meters

in

the

95-to-99

age

group，and

in

100

meters

for

the

over-100

group.（从那以后，她就没有停止过跑步，这不再像第一次见面时那样艰难。从那以后，小基林在95岁至99岁年龄组中创造了60米的记录，在100岁以上年龄组中创造了100米的记录。）可知尽可能地锻炼有助于Keeling在她很老的时候创下记录。故选C。

（4）观点态度题。根据文章倒数第二段When

she's

not

running，she's

working

out.She's

in

the

gym

three

to

four

days

a

week，running

on

tread-mills（跑步机），working

out

with

weights

and

pedaling

on

the

exercise

bike，and

even

squeezing

in

some

squats

（深蹲）

while

she's

cooking.Part

of

her

health

y

diet

is

occasional

brandy

wine

mixed

with

her

coffee

or

water

to

aid

circulation

（血液循环）.（当她不跑步的时候，她在锻炼。她每周有三到四天在健身房，在跑步机上跑步，进行举重锻炼，在健身车上踩踏板，甚至在做饭的时候做一些下蹲运动。她健康饮食的一部分是偶尔将白兰地酒与咖啡或水混合以促进血液循环。）可知A.Athletic

and

strong-willed.体格健壮，意志坚强的；B.Caring

and

sport-loving.有爱心，热爱运动的；C.Modest

and

hard-working.谦虚勤奋的；D.Humorous

and

out-going.幽默外向的。故选A。

（5）标题归纳题。根据文章最后一段She's

written

a

book

about

her

experiences，titled

Can't

Nothing

Bring

Me

Down：Chasing

Myself

in

the

Race

Against

Time.Her

philosophy

is

also

suitable

for

a

runner：

"Every

day

is

another

day

forward."（她写了一本关于自己经历的书，名为《什么都不能打倒我：在与时间的赛跑中追逐自己》。她的哲学也适合跑步者："每一天都是新的一天。"）可知本文的最佳标题是A.Run

forward

.向前跑。故选A。

本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了艾达•基林的女儿谢丽尔是一名终身运动员，她认为也许能让母亲走出阴霾的东西会让她重新振作起来。

11~15.【答案】C、C、D、A、A【解析】（1）段落大意题。根据第三段The

new

limits，aimed

at

foods

for

children

under

2，do

not

deal

with

grain-based

snacks

that

have

also

been

found

to

contain

high

levels

of

heavy

metals.And

they

do

not

limit

other

metals，like

cadmium，which

the

agency

and

many

consumer

groups

have

found

in

baby

foods

in

previous

years.（新的限制针对两岁以下儿童的食品，不包括被发现含有高含量重金属的谷物零食。他们不限制其他金属，如镉，该机构和许多消费者团体前几年在婴儿食品中发现了镉。）可知第三段的中心思想是指南的缺点。故选C。

（2）推理判断题。根据第四段Jane

"It

本文是一篇说明文。美国食品药品监督管理局（FDA）在周二提出了婴儿食品中铅含量的最高限制，此前多年的研究显示，许多加工产品含有已知对婴儿健康构成风险的铅水平。新的限制针对2岁以下的儿童的食品，但并未涉及也被发现含有高水平重金属的谷物类零食，也未限制其他金属，如镉。然而，有非营利组织的研究主管表示，这些指南令人失望，因为它们并未足够保护婴儿免受铅暴露引发的神经发育损害。FDA估计，这些提议的水平可能会使一些幼儿的饮食暴露于铅的风险降低约25%。

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。

16~20.【答案】C、G、A、E、D【解析】（1）联系上文题。根据上文Doyouwanttoimpresspeoplewithyourwords？Doyouwanttobethepersonatpartieswhoseconversationisalwaysfilledwithwisdom？（你想用你的语言给人留下深刻印象吗？你想成为聚会上谈吐总是充满智慧的人吗？）结合后文主要说明了让听众印象深刻的方法，故C.Here

（4）细节理解题。根据上文About70%ofallcommunicationisdonethroughnon-verbalcommunication，suchasbodylanguageandgestures.（大约70%的交流是通过非语言交流完成的，比如肢体语言和手势。）以及后文Standstraight.Don'tswingwildlyorrushthroughyourwordsoryourgestures.Movingtooquicklyisasignofnervousness.Makeeyecontactabout50%ofthetimewhenspeaking，andabout70%ofthetimewhenlistening.（站直。不要疯狂地摇摆或匆忙地表达你的语言或手势。行动太快是紧张的表现。说话时大约50%的时间进行眼神交流，倾听时大约70%的时间进行眼神交流。）可知，上文提到了非语言交流的重要性，后文提到了站直等肢体语言，可知本句是在说明通过肢体语言来表现出自信。故E.In

your

audience，you

speak.（为了使你的听众高兴，你说话的时候应该表现出自信。）符合语境，故选E。

（5）联系下文题。根据后文Forexample，don'tassumethatwomenwillonlywanttodiscussshoppingorthatmenwillonlywanttodiscusssports.（例如，不要认为女人只想谈论购物，或者男人只想谈论体育。）可知，后文的例子表明不要对听众做假设，D选项中assumptions对应后文assume。故D.Don't

make

assumptions

about

your

audience.（不要对你的听众做假设。）符合语境，故选D。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一些让听众印象深刻的方法。
