【答案】24.B25.C26.A27.A

【解析】

【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了土耳其城市Van独特的早餐文化。

【详解】1.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“HoursbeforethesunrisesoverVan,acityinthefareastofTurkey,

preparationsarealreadyunderwayforthemostimportantmealoftheday.By5a.m.,thescentofoven-hot

flatbreadandfreshTurkishteahasbeenwaftingacrossKahvalticilarQar§isi-Van^famous''BreakfastStreet”.（在太

阳升起的几个小时前，土耳其最东部的城市Van已经开始为一天中最重要的一餐做准备。早上5点，卡瓦

尔塔奇基亚勒Gar§isi-Van著名的“早餐街”已经弥漫着烤箱热大饼和新鲜土耳其茶的香味。）”可知，作者

一开始描述了土耳其城市Van的早餐街的一个场景来引出本文的话题。故选B项。

2.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“TheoriginsofVan'sbreakfastculturearethesubjectofdebate.（Van早餐文化

的起源一直是争论的焦点）”及第三、四段中关于不同时间的早餐起源的说法可知，Van的早餐文化是何时

形成的这一问题还存在争议。故选C项。

3.细节理解题。根据文章第四段“ButlocalssaythemoremodernhistoryofVanbreakfastcancertainlybelinked

tothedevelopmentofso-called“milkhouses“一whichwouldserveearlymorningmealsofmilk,cheeseandbread

tothosedoingphysicalworknearby-inthe1940s.SiitqiiKenan,whichtranslatesinTurkishas“MilkmanKenan”,

wasitselfopenedbyCoskurfsgreat-grandfatherKenanasamilkhousein1946.（但当地人说，Van早餐更现代的

历史可以肯定与所谓的“牛奶屋”的发展有关一一在20世纪40年代，“牛奶屋”为附近的体力劳动者提供

牛奶、奶酪和面包作为早餐。SutQuKenan,在土耳其语中翻译为“送奶工Kenan”，本身是科斯肯的曾祖父

Kenan在1946年开设的一家牛奶屋。）”可知，SiitqiiKenan一开始为附近的体力劳动者服务。故选A项。

4.词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“IsVanthebreakfastcapitaloftheworld?Definitely!（Van是世界早餐之都吗？

当然）”及最后一段划线词后的句子“In2014,morethan50,000peoplegatheredatrowsandrowsoftablesin

frontoftheVanFortress,whichwasbuiltinthe9thcentury,tobreaktheGuinnessWorldRecordforthe"largest

fullbreakfastattendance".（2014年，超过5万人聚集在建于9世纪的范城堡酒店前的一排排桌子前，打破了

“最大的早餐出席人数”的吉尼斯世界纪录）”可知，在Van创造的吉尼斯世界纪录是能“支持”“Van是世

界早餐之都”这一说法的。backup与suppprt同为“支持”含义。故选A项。

【答案】28.B29.A30.C31.D

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了AlNixon在八年前决定用坐在长凳上欣赏海滩风光来开始自己的一

天，但是一年后他改变了想法，不仅仅只是欣赏风光，他开始对人们微笑，展开对话，学会倾听过往的人

们，从而被人们称为“阳光市长”的故事。

【28题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段中的“"Icallit'liferising,becausewatchingasunrisemakesmefeelpositiveandcentered

beforeIstartmyday,“saysNixon,whoworksforthecity'swaterdepartment.ItisNixon'sownversionofdaily

motivation.（“我称之为'生活的上升'，因为看日出能让我在开始新的一天之前感到积极和专注，”在该市

水务部门工作的Nixon说。这是Nixon自己对日常动机的诠释）”可知，八年前，Nixon为了寻找精神力量，

决定从长凳开始他的一天，故选B。

【29题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中的uAyearlater,awomanstoppedtosayhello,andshesaidsomethingthatchangedhis

perspectiveonhisdailyritual.（一年后，一个女人停下来跟他打招呼，她说的话改变了他对日常生活的看法）”

和Nixon所说的“ThatwaswhenIknew:Ineededtopayattentiontothepeoplewalkingpast.Ineededtomakeeye

contactandletpeopleknowthatwemattertoeachother.（这时我明白了：我需要注意路过的人。我需要眼神交

流，让人们知道我们对彼此很重要）”可知，Nixon当时应该是很受启发的。故选A。

【30题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段中Nixon的行为和第四段中的"Hispresence,hisopennesstolistenandhiskindness

towardsstrangershaveledthemtonicknamehimtheSunshineMayor.（他的存在，他的倾听和他对陌生人的善良，

让他们给他起了一个“阳光市长”的绰号）”可知，Nixon温暖了陌生人的心，所以才得到这个昵称。故选C。

[31题详解】

细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Theysimplywanttositnexttosomeoneandsharethesilence.（他们只是想坐在

某人旁边，分享沉默）”以及“Shejustwantedamomentofpeaceandtoknowshewasn'talone.（她只是想要片

刻安宁，知道她并不孤单）”可知，对一些人来说，安静的陪伴反而能给他们带来慰藉。故选D。
