Segovia

isapparentlyalittleflankinnaturewhileVelazquezisdescribedasshy.”可知，Segovia和Velazquez彼此不说话因为他们的性格上没有什么相似处。故选D。5．推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段的句子“Unlessthetwomengettheiractstogether,theonlywaytohearthelanguagewillbetoeitherlistentoManuel'snot--so--fluentstatementorseethemtalkinadocumentary”可知，如果不采取有效措施，Zoque-Ayapaneco就会灭绝。故选B。6．词义猜测题。根据文章第四段的句子“forfearofbeinglaughedat,”可知，年轻人害怕被嘲笑，不愿意说Zoque-Ayapaneco。“shunned”意思是“不愿意的”。故选C。7．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段的句子“theonlywaytohearthelanguagewillbetoeitherlistentoManuel'snot--so--fluentstatementorseethemtalkinadocumentaryentitled‘LenguaMuerta’”可知，我们可以从曼纽尔或“LenguaMuerta”的纪录片那里听到这种语言。故选D。8．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段的句子“Zoque-Ayapaneco,anativeMexicanlanguageisconsideredthemostlikelytobecomeextinct,becausetheonlytwopeopleintheworldthatspeakitfluentlydonottalktoeachother!”可知，文章主要介绍一种濒临灭绝的语言，只有两个人在说。故选C。【备注】文章介绍墨西哥的当地的语言Zoque-Ayapaneco濒临灭绝，因为唯一两个会说这种语言的人不怎么交流。23.Shealmostdidnotrun.ChristineWilliamsadmitsthatnow.Shecouldbarelyputonefootafteranotherfollowingthewake(守灵)forhersister,whohaddiedinanautomobileaccident.Butshedidrun.Withthecheersoffriendsandstrangersreachingherheart,WilliamssetaC.W.PostrecordinBoston.Nowshewillrunagain,inthenationalDivisionIIcross-countrychampionshipsinEvansville,Ind.Shewantedtobesureshewasdoingtherightthingbyrunning.Shewasthemiddleofthreesisters,betweenKerry,whois25,andJennifer,whowas18.Justgoingthroughanymotionswashardenough,butChristineWilliamswantedtoknowifsheshouldputonheruniformandhershoesandrunthroughthewoodsonanautumnafternoon,intheawfulgapingtimebetweenhersister’swakeandherfuneral.“Ikindofgotupsetbeforehand.”Williamsadmitted.Notachatterboxundernormalconditions,shenowholdsherselfthebestwayshecan,thefewerwordsthebetter.Shealmostwalkedawayfromthestartline.ButherfriendAngelaToscano,whohadflownuptoBostonwithher,directlyfromthewake,wasstandingnearthelineandtalkedherthroughit.“Shesaidmysisterwouldhavewantedmetorun.”Christinesaid.Andthatwasenoughtogetherstarted.TheaccidenthappenedjustaftermidnightonNov,4.FouryoungwomenweredrivinginanunfamiliarareaofLongIslandinEastport,N.Y.,whenoneofthemapparentlyranayieldsign,andthecarwashitbyanothervehicle.HeatherBrownriggandJenniferWilliamsdied,andtheirfriendsAprilBrownandKaciMoranweretreatedatahospitalandreleased.Thecrashmadethepapers.AprilBrownwaschargedwithdrunkendrivinganddrivingwithoutalicense.ThewakebeganonNov.6.ThenextdayChristinewastorunwiththePostcross-countryteamattheregionalmeet.RichDegnan,thePostcoach,andPostofficialsofferedacarserviceandticketsonthelastflighttoBostonf
