34、ser”最有可能暗示消费者做了什么。根据画线短语所在句中的“they couldnt tell how much theyd had: those given extralarge shares ate more than everyone else” “they didnt feel fuller”可知，摸黑吃饭的顾客不知道吃的饭的具体分量：那些被给予超大份的人比其他人吃得多，但是他们没有意识到自己比平常吃得多，他们并没有觉得更饱。由此可知，“none the wiser”应指的是顾客没有意识到自己比平常吃得多。故选A。2A考查推理判断。该题问的是一家高级餐厅怎么获得更高利润。根据第四段第三

35、、四句“One way to encourage customers to stay and order that extra round: put on some Mozart (莫扎特). When classical, rather. diners spent more.”可知，餐厅演奏古典音乐能刺激顾客增加消费，因此推知，演奏古典音乐能让餐厅获得更多利润。故选A。3D段落大意题。该题问的是最后一段主要谈论了什么。根据最后一段第一句“Meanwhile, things that you might expect to discourage spending bad tables, cro

36、wding, high prices dont necessarily.”可知，同时，你认为可能会阻碍消费的事情“坏”的桌子、拥挤、高价不一定会妨碍消费。由此可知，最后一段主要介绍了人们对饭店的一些常见的误解。故选D。【语篇解读】Laura Sides在读大学期间，父亲患上了阿尔茨海默病，她休学悉心照料父亲直到他去世；后来她被医生告知自己在十年后也会患上同样的病。短暂的痛苦之后，她便振作了起来，积极面对生活，参加马拉松比赛，并且进行阿尔茨海默病方面的公开对话，鼓励人们公开谈论这种病，而不是回避它。(onset n开始；发生；攻击；袭击)4D考查细节理解。根据文章第一段最后两句“Then, I

37、came home for my 21st birthday. Thats when I knew something serious was happening”可知，Laura的父亲忘记参加女儿的21岁生日会，在那时Laura意识到父亲已患病，故选D。5B考查词义猜测。根据上文中的“there was a fiftyfifty chance that she had inherited it”可知，医生告知Laura，她有百分之五十患病的几率，并结合画线词所在句中的“whether to be tested”可推知，此处表示Laura多年来苦苦思索是否去检查一下，与B项词义接近。6A考查细

38、节理解。根据题干中的关键词open talk定位到文章的最后一段。根据该段首句“She hoped to start the conversation around earlyonset Alzheimers and to encourage people to talk about it more openly”可知，作者公开谈论阿尔茨海默病是为了鼓励人们公开谈论此病，故答案是A。7A考查推理判断。通读全文内容可知，Laura在得知父亲患阿尔茨海默病后休学来悉心照料他直至他去世，后来得知自己也会得阿尔茨海默病后，挣扎后便振作起来，先是决定参加马拉松比赛，接着针对这种病进行公开对话，鼓励人们更

39、加公开地谈论它，而不是回避它。由此可推知，作者是一个关心他人又积极向上的人，故答案是A。【语篇解读】柬埔寨农村地区的孩子经常遭受甚至死于可预防的疾病，因为没有任何可用的肥皂；美国人Samir Lakhani注意到了这个问题，于是他开始请求旅馆捐赠肥皂并成立了EcoSoap Bank来解决该地区的肥皂问题。8D考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“affordability”、“access”以及“many Cambodians dont really understand where diseases come from, they dont know how to prevent them”可知，贫

40、困、缺少接触途径以及缺乏意识是柬埔寨人很少用肥皂的原因。故选D。9C考查推理判断。根据第五段中的“four recycling centers”“providing jobs”以及“hygiene (卫生) has been improved”可知，“killing three birds”在文章中指的是减少浪费、提供就业机会以及改进健康状况。故选C。10C考查推理判断。根据第六段的内容尤其是最后一句“Were looking at seven countries to expand to in the near future”可知，EcoSoap Bank将会把自己的服务扩展到其他七个发展中

41、国家。由此可推知，EcoSoap Bank将对发展中国家作出更大贡献。故选C。干扰项分析：根据第六段中的“The demand for improved hygiene in the developing world is huge, and much remains to be done”可知，该组织主要是改进发展中国家的卫生状况，并没有扩展到全世界，故A项错误；文章没有提到B、D两项所表述的内容。11A考查细节理解。通读全文可知，文章讲述了EcoSoap Bank能为柬埔寨乡村地区的人提供肥皂，从而改善那里的卫生状况，故A项正确。干扰项分析：文章第五段只提到了35位当地妇女获得工作，故B项

42、以偏概全；本文主要讲述美国人Samir Lakhani成立了EcoSoap Bank来帮助解决柬埔寨的肥皂问题，未提到他呼吁帮助一些贫困国家，故C项不符合题意；文章只提到了柬埔寨以及其他发展中国家的卫生问题，故D项不符合题意。.阅读七选五【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了在家种马铃薯的方法，包括选种、浇水、培土和收获。1E根据该空所在的位置可知，该空为承上启下的句子；由空处下文可知，下文介绍的是在家里种植马铃薯的方法，故E项符合语境。2G根据空后一句可知，我们大部分人都不知道50克有多重，也不需要去称重。据此可推知，空处应是关于每块马铃薯的重量，故G项符合语境。G项中的“50 grams”也是提示。3D根据空后一句“If it feels dry, its time to water”可知，如果它摸起来干，就该是浇水的时候了。据此可推知，空处应是介绍感知土壤干湿的方法，故D项符合语境。4F根据该句中的“you need to hill them in case they will break”可知，培土是为了防止其断掉。据此可推知，空处应是介绍培土的时机，故F项符合语境，衔接下文。5B根据空处所在的位置可知，空处为该段的主题句；结合空处下文内容可知，该段主要介绍了收获马铃薯的时间，故B项符合语境。
