HowIFollowedMyMonthlyGoal.【答案】（1）D（2）C（3）B（4）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者公司电脑每个月都要换一次密码，这让作者很生气，特别是作者刚刚离婚，心情沮丧，但是前老板的话让作者意识到可以用设置密码提醒自己去达成一些目标，这样做效果真地很好。（1）考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的“Whatdidn'tmakeitanybetterwasthatIwasdeeplydepressedaftermyrecentdivorce.”更糟糕的是，在我最近离婚后，我感到非常沮丧。画线的不可能是沮丧，Iwasdeeplydepressed这里提到的是沮丧。根据第四段中的“Myangerdidn'tmeananythingtotheemptyinputfieldwithapulsatingcursor”这里指的是生气。故选D。（2）考查细节理解。根据第六段中的“Mypasswordbecametheindicator.MypasswordremindedmethatIshouldn'tletmyselfbeavictimofmyrecentbreakupandthatIwasstrongenoughtodosomethingaboutit.”我的密码成了指示符。我的密码提醒我，我不应该让自己成为最近分手的受害者，我足够坚强，可以为此做些什么。用这个密码因为他希望它能提醒他要坚强。故选C。（3）考查推理判断。根据最后一段“Andtheoneforlastmonth:Save4@ringYep.Lifeisgonnachangeagainsoon.”生活很快又要改变了。根据选项A.他每周都会给他妈妈打电话；选项B他很快就会向他的女朋友求婚。选项C他的密码能帮他省钱。这件事不可能发生的；选项D他会被提醒保存密码。根据推理可知只有选项B是生活有了改变。故选B。（4）考查主旨大意。根据第六段“Mypasswordbecametheindicator.MypasswordremindedmethatIshouldn'tletmyselfbeavictimofmyrecentbreakupandthatIwasstrongenoughtodosomethingaboutit.”及第十六段“Hereisasimplifiedextractofwhatsomeofmypasswordshavebeeninthepasttwoyears,soyougetanideaofhowmylifehaschanged,thankstothismethod.”通读全文可知,文章主要讲述的是作者借鉴了前任老板的忠告,利用新设置的一个密码帮助自己走出了离婚的阴霾,故A项作文章标题最佳。故选A。【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和主旨大意四个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。3．Choosetheonethatfitsbestaccordingtotheinformationgiveninthepassageyouhaveread.

becomemoresensitivetotheancientlifestyleofourancestors【答案】（1）B（2）D（3）B（4）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，自从1888年在埃及发现了猫动物的木乃伊之后，大量的皇家墓穴被挖掘，成千上万的木乃伊被运往世界各地，以攫取物质利益。后来考古学家不再只是寻宝，而是把它作为一门科学研究。因为木乃伊展示了古埃及人的日常生活。正如古物学家萨利玛·伊克拉姆所说，木乃伊的研究是现代社会和过去的联系的桥梁。（1）考查词义猜测。根据第一段中"Villagechildrenpeddledthebestonestotouristsforchange;therestweresoldasfertilizer."可知，peddled后的"totouristsforchange"即"把最好的给游客来换取零钱"，可知，此处的peddled是"兜售"给游客以换取零钱，可知peddle就是向他人炫耀从而售出，故选B。（2）考查推理判断。第二段叙述了"最初考古是为了寻找皇家陵墓，寻找华丽的黄金和彩绘面具来装饰欧洲和美洲的地产和博物馆。成千上万的来自古埃及的动物木乃伊出现在埃及各地的宗教场所，但很少有人研究它们"。可知，考古就是寻宝，为了物质上的价值。以及第三段中的“Inthecenturysincethen,archaeologyhasbecomelessofa

treasurehunt

andmoreofascience.”从那以后的一个世纪里，考古学已不再是寻宝，而是一门科学，可知，他们寻找古埃及的遗迹仅仅是为了他们的物质价值。分析选项可知D项符合题意，故选D。（3）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“shecreatedagalleryforthecollection—abridgebetweenpeopletodayandthoseoflongago.”可知，SalimaIkram把她的发现进行分类之后，她为这些收藏品创建了一个画廊——一座连接今天的人和很久以前的人的桥梁。以及她的话"Youlookatthesemummifiedanimals,andsuddenlyyousay,Oh,KingSo-and-Sohadapet.Ihaveapet.Andinsteadofbeingatadistanceof5,000-plusyears,theancientEgyptiansbecomeclearerandclosertous.""你看着这些动物木乃伊，突然你说，哦，国王某某养了一只宠物。我有一只宠物。古埃及人与我们之间的距离不再是5000多年前的事了，而是变得更加清晰，离我们更近了。"由此可推断出她认为研究这些遗迹有助于把现代社会与过去联系起来。故选B。（4）考查推理判断。本文主要叙述了古代埃及的木乃伊展示了古代埃及人的日常生活，是了解它们的途径，有助于在现代社会与过去的之间建立一座桥梁。通过研究它们可以让我们正确的评估过去。分析选项可知A符合题意，故选A。【点评】本题考点涉及词义猜测和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。4．Choosetheonethatfitsbestaccordingtotheinformationgiveninthepassageyouhavejustread.
