【语篇解读】本文主要介绍的是什么时候离开聚会最合适以及如

何拒绝主人的餐后邀请。

1.G[SfltTuRegardlessofwhichcategoryyoufallinto,though,

youmusthavesecretlywonderedaboutthebesttimetoheadoutthedoor.”

谈到人们参加聚会时都思考过什么时候离开最合适。空后“Notonlydo

youwanttoavoidbeingimpolite,butyoualsodon，twanttooverstayyour

welcome.”谈到既要避免不礼貌地过早离开，又要考虑不过度逗留。对

应G选项“找到离开聚会最自然的时间可能是一种艺术形式”，故选

Go]

2.B［空前uAccordingtoBlaikie,thereisagoldentimetoleavethe

gatheringwithoutappearingrude.”谈至U了礼仪专家Blaikie认为礼貌地

离开聚会有一个黄金时间，因此本段应该谈离开聚会的具体时间。所

以，本空谈在工作日的晚上聚会的话，10:30是离开的黄金时间，故

选B。］

3.A［上文说了工作日离开的最佳时间，结合本空后面一句“Aim

tosayyourgoodbyesat11:15p.m.”实际上回答了如果在周末晚上聚

会的话，什么时候离开最合适的问题，故选A。］

4.E［根据空后的内容“Chattingwithadrinkinyourhandcaneasily

makeyoulosetrackofthetime.”和uAfterall,yourhostistiredout”可

知，本段在谈应该拒绝关于餐后饮品的邀请，因为这样会把控不了时

间，况且主人也很累了。因此E选项作为本段主题句是最恰当的，故

选E。］

5.F［本段第一句"Thisadvicedependsonhowwellyouknowyour

host,ofcourse.”谈到了这些建议要根据你对主人的了解程度来使用。

本空后面的"Healsomightappreciateitifyoustayedbehindtohelp

cleanup.Inthatcase,you，11needtoknowthebestcleaningtipsfora

dinnerparty.”暗示了好朋友可能真的希望你留下来帮助他清理。据此

可推知，如果你拒绝餐后的邀请，你的好朋友可能会伤心，故选F。］

【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了作者跟一位销售员的电话通话，作

者出于礼貌地回应以及倾听，令这位销售员非常感动。

1.A.forgetB.pretend

C.likeD.dare

C［根据这里while“虽然”，表示转折关系，结合下文“I

myselfthatIcouldn'ttalkyet”可知，表示"我“不喜欢将时间花在这些

谈话上，故选C项。］

2.A.comfortedB.excused

C.remindedD.convinced

B［结合上文，“我”不喜欢这类谈话，需要给自己找个借口拒绝

打电话的人。故选B项。］

3.A.talkedB.argued

C.waitedD.rested

A［根据上文“That'swhathedid.”他那样做了。由此可知，销售员

“依约”下午6点打来电话，那么“我”跟他应该是交谈15分钟。故

选A项。］

4.A.previousB.useless

C.favoriteD.current

D［根据上文“tosellhisphoneplans”销售自己的电话计划，由此可

知，对方是想向“我”推销，希望作者购买，所以他说比“我”现在

用的好。故选D项。］

5.A.signB.result

C.rewardD.rule

A［根据上文uWhilelisteningtohim,sometimesIwaslostinmy

thoughts.”“我”一边听，一边又陷入自己的思绪中。由此可知，“我”

没有在认真听，但（可能出于礼貌）“我”依然以“嗯嗯”回应，作为

对对方的回应和认可，当然也是向他证明“我”在（听）。asignof…意为

”……的标志”符合题意。故选A项。］

6.A.whisperB.lie

C.explainD.confirm

D［根据上题可知，“我”“嗯嗯”的回应就是想让他知道“我”

在听，向他证明“我”在听他说。故选D项。］

7.A.guiltyB.impatient

C.nervousD.confused

B［结合上文，作者并没有认真听，只是在敷衍。再根据下文“ashe

hadabitofdifficultyincorrectlytalkinginFrench”他在正确用法语表述

方面有点困难时。“我”本来就不喜欢这样的电话，对方再表达不清

楚、不准确，这样“我”自然会不耐烦。故选B项。］

8.A.silentB.polite

C.indifferentD.focused

B［根据上文的描述，“我”不喜欢这样的电话，还是和销售员交

谈了15分钟，而且接电话过程也一直在回应。再根据逻辑连接词“but”

可知，空格和上文“不耐烦”是转折，综合可以判断，“我”是一直保

持冷静和礼貌。故选B项。］

9.A.revealedB.recommended

C.promisedD.introduced

A［根据最后一段开头的"Ithankedhimforthisrevelation.""我"

感谢他向“我”透露的自己的遭遇。由此可知，这里是谈话结束时，

销售员将自己的遭遇透露给作者。故选A项。］

10.A.awkwardB.enjoyable

C.usualD.brief

B［根据下文"Usually,peopleatus,insultus,andtreat

usasthieves.Today,since10a.m.,Ihadn，thada(n)withoutan

offense."通常，人们会对我们大声嚷，侮辱我们，把我们当成小偷。

今天，从上午10点开始，我没有哪一句话受到侮辱。由此可知，销售

员和其他人打电话时，没得到过尊重。再根据上文可知，“我”在和销

售员聊天时，一直很有礼貌，所以销售员向“我”表示感激，认为跟

“我”聊天很愉快。故选B项。］

11.A.waveB.signal

C.pointD.shout

D［结合下文的“insultus,andtreatusasthieves”侮辱我们，将

我们当成小偷。可见，平常销售员们遭遇的都是非善意回应，结合选

项意思，shoutat…”朝嚷”，符合题意。故选D项。］

12.A.interviewB.order

C.conversationD.quarrel

C［才艮据上文“spendtimewiththoseconversations,,C4Attheendofthe

conversation”以及“withwhomIhada(n)conversation."可才艮据

conversation原词复现以及销售员是通过电话跟人交谈进行销售，故选

C项。］

13.A.workedB.relaxed

C.complainedD.slept

B［工作了一天，在电视前看看电视是放松的一种方式。故选B

项。］

14.A.disturbedB.embarrassed

C.exhaustedD.touched

D［根据上文"Instead,youlistenedcarefullytome."你反而认真

听我说话。结合上文语境，销售员收到的通常是非善意的回应，可知

“我”的认真倾听让销售员很感动。故选D项。］

15.A.violenceB.communication

C.agreementD.conflict

A/吉合上文uUsually,peopleatus,insultus,andtreatus

asthieves.”通常人们会对我们大声嚷，侮辱我们，将我们当成小偷。

由此可知，销售员是语言暴力的对象，故选A项。］

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了跑步带来的多种好

处。一本医学杂志上的评论及研究表明，跑步不仅使人长寿，而且可

以降低死亡的风险。

1.longer［考查副词比较级。句中有than,故用long的比较级

longero］

2.tosee［考查非谓语动词。本句有谓语，因此此处应用非谓语

动词；分析句子结构及句意可知，此处应用动词不定式tosee作目的状

语。］

3.dying［考查非谓语动词。短语reduceone'sriskof..."降低某

人……的风险”，此处介词of后用动名词作宾语。］

4.is［考查时态和主谓一致。本文介绍了跑步的好处，通篇以一

般现在时为主。本句中宾语从句与主句的时态应保持一致，故用一般

现在时；且宾语从句中的主语为it,故用is。］

5.than［考查介词。根据句中的more可知，此处应用介词than

引出比较对象。此处表示跑步比散步、骑行或游泳更能有效地延长寿

命。故填than。］

6.that/which［考查定语从句的关系词。分析句子结构可知，此

处引导定语从句，先行词为astudy,且定语从句中缺少主语，故填关

系代词that/which。］

7.causes［考查名词复数。此处cause是可数名词，意为“原因”，

句中的all表示“所有”，后应用可数名词的复数形式，故填causes。］

8.strengthen［考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处为动

词不定式作目的状语，故本空应填动词strengthen,意为“增强，加

强”。］

9.energetic［考查形容词。and连接两个并列分句，两个分句都

表示跑步的特征，and前面的cheap和easy均为形容词，故此处应用形

容词energetic作表语，意为“精力充沛的，充满活力的”。］

10.it［考查固定搭配。giveitatry为固定搭配，意为"试一试”，

根据语境可知，it指代running,故可填it或running。］
