（2）细节理解题。根据第三段NowacollaborationbetweenUKcharitySafeHavenforDonkeysandEgyptiancommunitydevelopmentcharitytheBridgeFoundationisprovidingmuch-neededrelieftotheseanimals.（现在，英国慈善机构"驴的避风港"和埃及社区发展慈善机构"桥梁基金会"正在为这些动物提供急需的救助。）可知，驴的安全避难所通过向工作的驴提供救济来帮助它们。故选A。

（4）写作意图题。根据最后一段SafeHavenforDonkeys'work，whichhelpsanestimated10.000animalsayear，ismadepossiblebycharitabledonationsthatfundthetreatmentandtrainingthattheyoffer.YoucandonateatsafehavenA.（驴工作的避风港每年帮助大约10000只动物，这是因为慈善捐款为它们提供的培训和培训提供了资金。您可以在safehavenA上捐款。）可知，最后一段的写作意图是呼吁大家捐赠。故选A。

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。12~15.【答案】C、B、C、D【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第三段Whileitiswellestablishedthatmemorycanworsenaspeopleage，ithasnotbeenclearwhatchangesoccurattheindividualbrainneuronleveltocausethis—untilnow.（虽然人们已经确定，随着年龄的增长，记忆力会恶化，但到目前为止，还不清楚是什么样的变化导致了这种情况。）可知，现在科学家还不知道是什么导致人们随着年龄的增长而记忆力下降。故选C。

（2）词义猜测题。根据第六段However，thisabilitytoholdmemorydiminishesinmiddle-agedandoldmiceduetoweakeningconnectionsamongtheneurons，whichcausesthemicetotakelongertorecallandperformtasks.（然而，由于神经元之间的连接减弱，这种保持记忆的能力在中老年小鼠中减弱，这导致小鼠需要更长的时间来回忆和执行任务。）可知，"diminishes"意为"减弱；下降"。A.standsout突出；B.goesdown下降；C.comestrue成为现实；D.diesout灭绝。故选B。

（3）细节理解题。根据最后一段Thisresearchemphasisestheimportanceofearly，strategicinterventions（干预）tocopewithcognitivedecline，providingavitalframeworkforfutureageingresearchandbrainhealthmaintenance.（这项研究强调了早期战略性干预措施应对认知能力下降的重要性，为未来的老龄化研究和大脑健康维护提供了重要框架。）可知，早期科学预防是对抗认知能力下降的关键。故选C。

（4）标题归纳题。根据全文和第一段AteamofscientistsfromNanyangTechnologicalUniversity，Singapore（NTUSingapore）hasdemonstratedthatcommunicationamongmemory-codingneurons（神经元）一nervecellsinthebrainresponsibleformaintainingworkingmemory—isdisruptedwithageingandthatthiscanbegininmiddleage.（新加坡南洋理工大学的一组科学家证明，记忆编码神经元之间的交流一大脑中负责维持工作记忆的神经细胞会随着年龄的增长而被破坏，这可能始于中年。）可知，文章主要介绍了从中年开始，衰老会削弱脑细胞维持记忆的能力。D项Thewayagingweakensbraincells'abilitytomaintainmemory.（衰老削弱了脑细胞维持记忆的能力。）是最合适的标题。故选D。

本文为说明文。文章主要介绍了从中年开始，衰老会削弱脑细胞维持记忆的能力。

做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。做题时要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。16~20.【答案】D、E、F、A、G【解析】（1）联系上文题。根据上文Thegoodnewsisthatthereisabetterpathouttherewaitingforyou（好消息是，有一条更好的路在等着你。）可知此处说的是有一条更好的路在等着你。所以"D.However，tofindit，youwillneedtothinkdifferently然而，要找到它，你需要用不同的方式思考"符合语境。故选D。

（2）联系上文题。根据上文Isthereaclearandappealingpurposetoyourwork？（你的工作是否有一个明确而吸引人的目标？）可知此处说的是你的工作状态。所以"E.Canyoulinkyourdailyeffortstomakingadifferencetosomethingimportant你能把你每天的努力与重要的事情联系起来吗？"符合语境。故选E。

（3）联系上文题。根据上文Wecanalwaysfindtimeforsomethingwetrulylove.（我们总能找到时间做我们真正热爱的事情。）可知此处说的是找到自己真正热爱的事情。所以"F.Ifyoudon'tloveyourwork，trytofindsomethingyoucanlovealongsideyourjob如果你不喜欢你的工作，试着在工作之外找一些你喜欢的事情"符合语境。故选F。

（4）联系下文题。根据下文Spendsometimeremindingyourselfofwhatmatteredmosttoyouinyourteensandearlytwenties.（花点时间提醒自己，在你十几岁和二十岁出头的时候，什么对你最重要。）可知此处说的是想一想年轻时候的事情。所以"A.Reconnectwithyouryouthfulidealism重新找回你年轻时的理想主义"符合语境。故选A。

（5）联系下文题。根据下文ClimbKilimanjaro，learnanewlanguageorhowtowriteJavnScript.（爬乞力马扎罗山，学习一门新语言或如何编写javascript。）可知此处说的是重新找到自己喜欢的事情。所以"G.Giveyourselfpermissiontofindonepleasure，goal，orambitionyouwillconquer允许自己去寻找一个你能征服的乐趣、目标或抱负"符合语境。故选G。

本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一些窍门，可以帮助你摆脱旧的恶性循环，为新的良性循环而奋斗。

七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子。解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子。21~40.【答案】B、D、C、A、D、A、C、B、D、C、D、A、B、C、A、B、D、A、C、D【解析】（1）考查形容词及语境理解。A.cleverest最聪明的；B.youngest最年轻的；C.thinnest最瘦的；D.tallest最高的。句意：他们进门时，最小的孩子兴奋地跟我打招呼，欢快地说了声"嗨"。根据下文Duringthecheck-in（6）withtheparents，theyoungest（7）announced."It'smybirthdaytomorrow!"可知，是被接待家庭的最小的孩子打了招呼。故答案为B。
