B.Science&Technology.C.Culture D.Sports.【答案】1.D2.D3.C【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了英国常见的美食节的相关信息。【1题详析】细节理解题。由TheGinger(姜)andspiceFestival中的“TheGingerandspiceFestival,heldinMarketDrayton,celebratesitstown’shistoricconnectiontoRobertClive,whoreturnedfromIndiawithginger”可知，在德雷顿市场举办的生姜和香料节庆祝了小镇与罗伯特·克莱夫的历史联系，罗伯特·克莱夫从印度带回了生姜。所以罗伯特·克莱夫从印度把姜带回了英国。故D选项“罗伯特·克莱夫从印度把姜带回了英国”正确。故D选项正确。【2题详析】细节理解题。由TheNationalHoneyshow中的“Thisthree-dayeventattractsover2000participantstotheirtraditionalcompetition,andofferslecturesandworkshopsonbeekeepingand,ofcourse,thatsyrupygoldenhoney.”可知，这个为期三天的活动吸引了2000多名参赛者参加他们的传统比赛，并提供有关养蜂的讲座和研讨会，当然，还有甜腻的金色蜂蜜。所以TheNationalHoneyshow对爱吃甜食的人最有吸引力。故D选项正确。【3题详析】推理判断题。由第一段“FoodfestivalsareacommonoccurrenceintheUKandtakeplaceinallsortsofplacesandatallsortsoftimes.Whateveryourtaste,there’safoodfestivaltomatch-nomatterhowspecialized.”美食节在英国很常见，在任何地方、任何时间都可以举办。无论你的口味如何，总有一个美食节适合你。所以短文介绍了英国常见的美食节的相关信息。而美食节是文化的一部分。所以判断出最有可能在杂志的文化部分,找到这篇文章。故C选项正确。BWhenshewasyoung,SylviaColt-Lacayonoticedshewasparticularlyfascinatedwithon-screenstories.Mediaofferedanescapewhenlifewashard.WatchingGlee,shewasthrilledtoseeacharacterwhousedawheelchairlikeher—untilshelearnedtherolewasplayedbyanactorwhowasnotdisabled.“Irememberfeelingsoheartbrokenandbetrayed(背叛),fornoreasonotherthanthefactthatIfeltseenforonceasa10-year-oldwatchingGlee,andthepowerofthat,”saysColt-Lacayo.Now,Colt-LacayoisgraduatingfromStanfordwithadegreeinfilmandmediastudiesandisheadingtoHollywoodwithapassionforincreasingdisabilityrepresentationanddiversityingeneral.“Representationmatters,andIalsothinkthatdiversestorytellingiswhatismostcompelling(令人信服的),”shesaid.RepresentationshapedColt-Lacayo’spathtoStanford.AsadisabledLatinagirl,shestruggledtoimaginegoingtocollege,inpartbecausesheneversawadultwheelchairusersinthemedia.Inhighschool,shemet-anotherStanfordstudentwhowasalsoawheelchairuserataconference.Suddenly,anewstoryfeltpossible.WhenshearrivedatStanford,Colt-Lacayoknewshewasoftenthefirstvisiblydisabledstudentherprofessorsandpeershadinteractedwith.Herparentshadtaughthertoadvocateforherself,andwhileshedoesn’tclaimthelabel“activist”,sheasksforwhatsheneeds.“Yes,there’ssomethingthatisinmyDNAthatmakesmybodydifferentfromotherpeople’s.Butreally,whatmakesmedisabledisthatpeopletreatmedifferently,andIdonothaveequalaccesstoresources,”shesaid.ShebroughtthisperspectivetoherStanfordexperience.Forherseniorthesis(论文),shewroteascreenplayexamininghowgrowingupwithadisabilityimpactsone’srelationshipwithoneselfandone’sunderstandingoftheworld.Colt-Lacayoaimstobecomeanagentforscreenwritersandfilmdirectors.Shehopesthatsharingherstorygivesotherstheexampleshewishedforwhenshewasyoung.4.HowdidColt-LacayoinitiallyfeelwhilewatchingGlee?A.Overjoyedandinspired.

Apersonwhotakesasingle-ingredientmedicinepairedwithoneofthesemulti-ingredientmedicinescanreceiveanunsafedoseofthatingredient.(仔细阅读非处方药的包装成分以避免重复剂量是很重要的。感冒药通常由多种成分组成。一个人服用单一成分的药物与其中一种多种成分的药物搭配，可能会收到不安全剂量的该成分。)”可知，作者在第三段中提感冒药是为了强调了解药物成分的重要性。故选D。【10题详析】推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Olderpeoplewhoareusingprescribeddrugstotreatmultiplehealthconditionsmayhaveahigherriskofdruginteractionsbecauseofthehighernumberofmedicinesbeingusedatthesametimetotreatdifferentconditions.Theagingbodyisnotasexpertatabsorbing,distributingandclearingmedicinesasyoungerbodiesare.(使用处方药治疗多种健康状况的老年人可能有更高的药物相互作用风险，因为同时使用更多的药物来治疗不同的疾病。衰老的身体不像年轻的身体那样擅长吸收、分配和清除药物。)”可以推断出老年人的身体不容易接受药物。故选B。【11题详析】主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段中的“Whencoldsandfluhit,manypeopleautomaticallyturntoover-the-counter(OTC)medicinestopushthroughandtreattheirsymptoms.Althoughthesemedicinesareeasilyaccessibleandwidelyused,itmightcomeasasurprisetomanypeopletolearnthattheyarenotrisk-free.(当感冒和流感来袭时，许多人会不由自主地求助于非处方药(OTC)来克服和治疗他们的症状。虽然这些药物很容易获得并被广泛使用，但许多人可能会惊讶地发现它们并非没有风险。)”可知，本文主要讲的是非处方药（OTC），如感冒和流感药物的风险。C选项“OTCMedicinesMayNotBeSafe(非处方药可能不安全)”最适合用作本文的标题。故选C。DJason,astraight-AstudentfromtheUniversityofPennsylvania,usestheterm“pseudo-working”todescribehowmanyofusstudy.Thepseudo-workerlooksandfeelslikesomeonewhoisworkinghard—heorshespendsalongtimeinthelibraryandisnotafraidtopushonlateintothenight—but,becauseofalackoffocusandconcentration,heorshedoesn’tactuallyaccomplishmuch.Thisphenomenoncanbeseeninmostcolleges.Forexample,atDartmouththerewasasectionofthemainlibrarythatwasopentwenty-fourhoursadayandthestudentsIusedtoseeintherelateatnightcrowdedingroups,drinkingcoffee,weredefinitelypseudo-working.Byplacingthemselvesindistractingenvironmentsandinsistingonworkinglonghours,thesestudentsaredamagingtheirbrain’sabilitytothinkclearlyandefficientlytoaccomplishthetaskathand.Intheendtheygethalftheresultswithtwicetheeffort.Thebiggerproblemhereisthatmoststudentsdon’tevenrealizethatthey’repseudo-working.Tothempseudo-workingiswork—it’showthey’vealwaysdoneit,andit’showalloftheirfriendsdoit.Itnevercrossestheirmindthattheremightbeabetterway.Straight-Astudents,ontheotherhand,knowallaboutpseudo-working.Theyfearit,andforgoodreasonitnotonlywastestime,butit’salsomentallytiring.Infact,themostimportantskillinbecomingabetterstudentistheabilitytogetworkdonequicklyandwithaminimumofwastedeffort.Somecognitivescienceresearchconcludesthatabout50minutesistheoptimallearningperiodtomaximizethemateriallearnedpertimeunit.Sohowcanstudentsmanagetostudyefficiently?Onekeyfactoriscapturedinthefollowingsimpleformula:workaccomplished=timespent×intensityoffocus.Pseudo-workingfeaturesaverylowintensityoffocus.Therefore,toaccomplishsomethingbypseudo-working,youneedtospendalotoftime.Thestraight-Aapproach,ontheotherhand,maximizesintensityinordertominimizetime.12.Whichofthefollowingphenomenonisanexampleofpseudo-working?A.Tomisbusytakingnoteswhileattendingalecture.B.AliceandSaraaresittingonthesofareadingtheirfavoritebooks.C.Mikeissittinginthestudyroominpreparationforafinalexamquietly.D.Jackspendsalongtimeinthelibraryonhisessaywhilelisteningtomusic.13.Whatcanbeinferredfromparagraph3and4?A.Straight-Astudentsbelievesometasksareworthtwicetheeffort.B.Toomuchthinkingmayweakenthebrain’sabilityofthestudents.C.Negativeeffectsofpseudo-workingarenotfullyrealizedbymanystudents.D.Studentswillgetgoodgradesoncetheyrealizethatpseudo-workingisineffective.14.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“optimal’meaninparagraph5?A.Longest.
