A.differencesbetweenteenagersandtheirparentsB.whatispopularamongchildrenatthemomentC.howtospendmoneywiselyD.children’shighconsumption(消费)ofproducts【解析】选D。主旨大意题。第一段表明了本文主题——现在中国的孩子们花钱是父辈花钱的5倍,下文说明了他们购买的东西和导致此现象的原因。所以本文主要内容是讲述孩子们对产品的高消费问题,故选D。22.Parentsaretoblameforchildren’sspendingalotofmoneybecause______.

A.theydon’tgivechildrenpositiveguidanceinconsumptionB.theyoffertobuythelatestfashionsfortheirchildrenC.theyalwaysgivechildrentoomuchpocketmoneyD.theirconsumptionhabitssetabadexampletochildren【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第三段Butparentsalsoneedtotaketheblameforspendingsomuchmoney.Theywanttheirchildrentohavethebestthings.可知父母总是想给孩子买最好的东西,造成了孩子的高消费问题,所以父母也该受到责备。23.Thesaying“Moneydoesn’tgrowontrees.”inthelastparagraphseemstotellusthat______.

A.theoldergenerationunderstoodhowtoteachchildrentosaveB.inthepast,peopleattachedmoreimportancetosavingmoneyC.moneyhasagreatdealofvaluebothinthepastandatpresentD.moneyisnoteasilyearnedandweshouldbecarefulwhenwespendit【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据Whenourgrandparentswereyoung,therewasverylittlemoneyandeveryonehadtosavehardforthingstheybought.Theyonlyboughtthingstheyneeded,notthingstheyjustwanted.可知祖辈们都是为买东西攒钱,他们只买需要的东西,而不是想要的东西。所以“Moneydoesn’tgrowontrees.”告诉我们挣钱不容易,花钱要节省。BIfyouareinvitedtoawedding,babyshowerorothercelebrations,youwillbeexpectedtobringagift.Unlessyouknowthehostverywell,thegiftshouldbemodestinvalue,about$25orso.Forawedding,thebridewillhave“registered(登记)”atoneortwolocaldepartmentstores,indicatingtheitemssheprefers.Youcanbuythecoupleagiftthatisn’tlisted,butmostpeoplebuysomethinglistedontheregistry(记录簿).Ifyoubuyanitemlistedontheregistry,besuretotellthestorethatyouaredoingthis,sothatthecoupledoesn’treceiveduplicate(重复的)gifts.Forababyshower,bringagiftappropriateforanewbornbaby.Ifyouwishtogiveagiftwhenyouleavetoreturntoyourcountry,thebestgiftissomethinguniquetoyourcountry.Itdoesnotneedtobeespeciallyvaluableorrare.Possibilitiesincludeabookaboutyourcountry,aninexpensivepieceofhandicraft(手工艺品)orart,orsomethingelsethatreflectsyourculture.Ifthechildrencollectcoinsandstamps,theywouldbeverypleasedwithasetofyourcountry’scoinsoraselectionofstampsfromyourcountry.IfyouoweadebtofdeepgratitudetoanAmericanhostfamily,acommonwayofrepayingitistotakethefamilytoaformofentertainment,suchasbaseball,basketball,oragoodrestaurant.GiftgivingisnotasimportantinAmericaasitisinothercountries,sothereisnothingwrongwithnotgivingagift.Ifyouneedhelp,talktoasalespersonatadepartmentstore.Tellthemaboutthepersonwhowillbereceivingthegiftandthereasonforthegift,andtheywillhelpyoufindsomethingappropriate.【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。本文主要说明了在美国不同的场合,比如:参加婚礼、婴儿洗礼或其他的庆祝活动,你应该带什么样的礼物。24.Whyiscollectingcoinsmentionedinthethirdparagraph?A.Toshowtheimportantroleofcoinsasgifts.B.TostressthepopularityofcoincollectinginAmerica.C.Togiveanexampleofselectingauniquegift.D.Toexplaintherelationbetweencoinsandculture.【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据第三段第一句Ifyouwishtogiveagiftwhenyouleavetoreturntoyourcountry,thebestgiftissomethinguniquetoyourcountry.可知如果你想在回国时送一件礼物,最好的礼物是属于你的国家的独一无二的东西。下文则列举了收集硬币,可知是为了举一个选择独特礼物的例子。故选C。25.WhatdoestheauthorintendtodoinPara.4?A.Introduceawaytoshowgratitude.B.Addsomebackgroundinformation.C.Summarize(总结)thepreviousparagraphs.D.Recommendsomefamily-friendlyactivities.【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第四段IfyouoweadebtofdeepgratitudetoanAmericanhostfamily,acommonwayofrepayingitistotakethefamilytoaformofentertainment,suchasbaseball,basketball,oragoodrestaurant.可知如果你对一个美国寄宿家庭怀有深深的感激之情,一种常见的报答方式是带他们去看一场娱乐活动,比如棒球运动、篮球运动或去一家不错的餐馆。即第四段作者是想介绍一种表达感激的方法。26.Thewriterdevelopsthepassagemainlyby______.

A.usingnumbersB.givingexamplesC.givingreasonsD.tellingstories【解析】选B。推理判断题。文章第二、三、四段分别列举了婚礼、回国送礼物以及想要表达感激三种送礼的场合来论述,可知作者是通过举例子的方式来展开这篇文章的。27.Whichcanserveasatitleforthetext?A.HowtoselectagiftB.GiftgivinginAmericaC.WheretobuyagiftD.CelebrationsinAmerica【解析】选B。主旨大意题。文章内容主要为说明在美国不同的场合,比如受邀参加婚礼、婴儿洗礼或其他的庆祝活动时,需要带什么样的礼物。故选B。CACaliforniafamilydrivesacarthatcouldhelpprotecttheenvironment.WhenJonandSandygotothestoreortotheirdaughters’soccergames,theydriveinhigh-techstyle.Theydrivea$1million,fuel-cell-poweredcar.Itmaybetheworld’smostexpensivecarandoneofthemostenvironmentallyfriendlycars.TheFCXisthefirstfuel-cell-poweredcartobeusedbyafamilyanywhereintheworld.TheFCXuseshydrogenandoxygenforfuel.Carmakershavebeenworkingtodevelopvehiclesthatarebetterfortheenvironment.Theyaredevelopingcarsthatusefuelotherthangasoline.Andthenwhatisfuelcelltechnology?Fuelcelltechnologyworksbychangingthechemicalshydrogenandoxygenintowater.Thisprocessproduceselectricity,andwatervaporwhichcomesoutoftheexhaustpipe.Mostcarsreleasedangerousgasessuchascarbonmonoxideandcarbondioxide.Manyscientistssaythesegasesaremajorcontributorstoglobalwarming.“TheFCXisdrivenjustlikeanyothervehicleontheroad,butwithoutthegaseswhichpollutetheenvironment,”scientistssay.Fuelcelltechnologyhasbeenaroundsincethe1800s,butscientistshaveyettoperfectit.Theysayitmaytakeyearsbeforethetechnologyisreadyforwidespreaduse.Anotherearth-friendlycarisalreadyonthemarket.Hybridcarsusebothgasolineandanelectricmotor.Theyarebecomingmorepopularwithcustomersbecausetheycutpollutionandimprovefuelefficiency.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了使汽车更加环保的燃料电池技术。28.WhichofthefollowingabouttheFCXisnottrue?A.Itletsoutdangerousgasestopollutetheair.B.Itmaybethemostexpensivecarintheworld.C.Itisoneofthemostenvironmentallyfriendlycars.D.Ituseshydrogenandoxygenforfuelotherthangasoline.【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第二段中的“TheFCXisdrivenjustlikeanyothervehicleontheroad,butwithoutthegaseswhichpollutetheenvironment”可知,FCX和道路上的任何其他车辆一样,但没有污染环境的气体。因此推断FCX不会排放有害气体污染空气,故A项正确。29.Accordingtothepassage,whatisthemajorcauseforglobalwarming?A.GasesfromtheFCX.B.Gasesfromcars.C.Hydrogenandoxygen.D.Watervaporfromcars.【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Mostcarsreleasedangerousgasessuchascarbonmonoxideandcarbondioxide.Manyscientistssaythesegasesaremajorcontributorstoglobalwarming.”可知,科学家认为汽车所排放的像一氧化碳和二氧化碳这样的气体是全球变暖的主要原因,故B项正确。30.Fromthepassage,weknowthatfuelcelltechnology______.

A.worksbywaterB.worksbyelectricityC.hasbeenwidelyusedsincethe1800sD.hasahistoryforabouttwohundredyears【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Fuelcelltechnologyhasbeenaroundsincethe1800s”可知,燃料电池技术从19世纪就开始了,现在已经是21世纪了,至今已经有200年左右的历史了,故D项正确。31.Whatcanweinferfromthepassage?A.Therewillbenogasolineforcars.B.Globalwarminghasbeenstopped.C.Peoplecan’taffordtobuycarsinthefuture.D.Futurecarswillbeenvironmentallyfriendly.【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Theyarebecomingmorepopularwithcustomersbecausetheycutpollutionandimprovefuelefficiency.”可知,因为能够减少污染和提高燃料效率,这种汽车将越来越受消费者的欢迎,为了满足消费者的需要,汽车生产商必定会生产越来越多的环保汽车,也就是说未来的汽车将是环保的,故D项正确。【方法技巧】推理判断题的难度在于要根据文章的已知信息进行合乎逻辑的推断,切不可凭主观臆断,例如本篇最后一题,根据第二段中的“Theyarebecomingmorepopularwithcustomersbecausetheycutpollutionandimprovefuelefficiency.”可知,因为能够减少污染和提高燃料效率,这种汽车将越来越受消费者的欢迎,为了满足消费者的需要,汽车生产商必定会把注意力集中于这类环保汽车,加大研发和生产,也就是说未来的汽车将是环保的。DAlong-termAmericanstudyshowstheimportanceofearlyeducationforpoorchildren.ThestudyisknownastheAbecedarian(初步的)Project.ItinvolvedmorethanonehundredyoungchildrenfrompoorfamiliesinNorthCarolina.Halfofthechildrenattendedanall-dayprogramatahigh-qualitychildcarecenter.Thecenterofferededucational,healthandsocialprograms.Childrentookpartingamesandactivitiestoincreasetheirthinking,languageskillsandsocialandemotionaldevelopment.Theprogramalsoincludedhealthyfoodsforthechildren.Thechildrenattendedtheprogramfromwhentheywereafewweeksolduntiltheageoffiveyears.Theothergroupofchildrendidnotattendthechildcarecenter.Aftertheageoffive,bothgroupsattendedpublicschool.Researcherscomparedthetwogroupsofchildren.Whentheywerebabies,bothgroupshadsimilarresultsintestsformentalandphysicalskills.However,fromtheageofeighteenmonths,thechildrenintheeducationalchildcareprogramdidmuchbetterintests.Theresearcherstestedthechildrenagainwhentheyweretwelveandfifteenyearsold.Thetestsfoundthatthechildrenwhohadbeeninthechildcarecentercontinuedtohavehigheraveragetestresults.Thesechildrendidmuchbetterontestsofreadingandmathematics.Afewyearsago,organizersoftheAbecedarianProjecttestedthestudentsagain.Atthetime,eachstudentwastwenty-oneyearsold.Theyweretestedforthinkingandeducationalability,employment,parentingandsocialskills.Theresearchersfoundthattheyoungadultswhohadtheearlyeducationstilldidbetterinreadingandmathematicstests.Theyweremorethantwotimesaslikelytogotocollegeortohavecompletedcollege.Inaddition,thechildrenwhoreceivedearlyeducationwereolderonaverage,whentheirfirstchildwasborn.Thestudyoffersmoreevidencethatlearningduringthefirstmonthsandyearsoflifeisimportantforalllaterdevelopment.TheresearchersoftheAbecedarianProjectbelievetheirstudyshowsaneedforlawmakerstospendmoneyonpublicearlyeducation.Theybelievethesekindsofprogramscouldreducethenumberofchildrenwhodonotcompleteschoolandareunemployed.【文章大意】本文属于说明文。研究发现,早期教育十分重要,可以改善贫穷孩子未来的生活,帮助他们完成学业,顺利找到好工作。32.TheAbecedarianProjecthaslasted______.

A.involveschildrenfromrichfamiliesB.doesn’tprovidefoodforchildrenC.offersforeignteacherstohelpimprovechildren’slanguageskillsD.studiestheimportanceofearlyeducationforpoorchildren【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知,一项长期的美国研究表明早期教育对贫困儿童很重要。这项研究涉及北卡罗来纳州一百多名来自贫困家庭的孩子。接着下面把去过育儿中心的和没去过的两组孩子进行了对比,发现去过高质量育儿中心的这些孩子在阅读和数学测试方面做得更好。在他们二十一岁时再次比较发现,去过育儿中心的受过早期教育的年轻人在阅读和数学测试方面仍然做得更好。他们上大学或完成大学的可能性更大,从而得出了早期教育对贫困的孩子来说非常重要。分析选项可知D项符合题意。35.WhatisNOTsureabouttheAbecedarianProjectafterreadingthetext?A.Howimportantearlyeducationisforpoorchildren.B.Whatthechildrenlearnedatthechildcarecenter.C.HowmanychildrenareinvolvedintheAbecedarianProject.D.Whetherlawmakerswillspendmoneyonpublicearlyeducation.【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据TheresearchersoftheAbecedarianProjectbelievetheirstudyshowsaneedforlawmakerstospendmoneyonpublicearlyeducation.可知,这个项目的研究者认为他们的研究表明:立法者需要在公共早期教育上投资资金,我们无法确定立法者是否这样做了。分析选项可知选D。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Americansspendalotofmoneyintheirdailylives.Workingpeoplespendmoneyontransportationtoandfromworkandonvariousexpensesthroughouttheday.Americansenjoyshoppingandbuymanythingsthattheyneedandwant.36Theybuysportsequipment,gotothemoviesanddomanythingsthatcostmoney.
