28、eesthatweredyingfrombeingeatenbyinsects”可知,19世纪瓢虫被从澳大利亚引进到美国加利福尼亚州是为了挽救被害虫侵害的橘子树。3.D词义猜测题。由倒数第二段中的“Veryfewbirdsorinsectswilleataladybugbecauseitgivesoffsomethingthatisdangeroustoeat.”可知,很少有鸟或昆虫吃瓢虫。再由画线部分后的“abirdabout100timesitssize”可知,当遇见比它大的鸟时,瓢虫会释放某种物质从而对鸟造成威胁。故此处的standupto有“回击,抵御”之意。4.C推理判断题。本文旨在

29、介绍瓢虫这种能够吃害虫的昆虫,它们对于庄稼来说是得力的助手,故C项中的helper最符合瓢虫的这一特性。【篇章导读】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一项帮助盲人识别道路、进出大楼和公共场所等的项目。5.C细节理解题。由第一段中的“makeiteasierandsaferfortheblindtofindtheirwayto,intoandthroughbuildingsandlargepublicspaces”可知,这两本书指导人们如何将建筑物建造得方便盲人出入。6.B细节理解题。由第三段中的“Forexample,agoodsignmayincludetactileletteringBraille”

31、read”及“Icouldgetthroughawholebook”可知,作者小时候酷爱读书,常常“请求(ask)”父母允许自己熬夜读书,这样他才能“看完(finish)”自己想看的章节。2.C见上题解析。3.A根据本段中的“Ifoundmyselfchoosingbetweenbooksforchildren.andadultbooks”及下一段中的“Thislackofchoice”可知,“虽然(while)”儿童书籍很多,但是当你再大一些到了少年时期,你就会发现你的选择变得“有限(limited)”了。4.D见上题解析。5.A作者发现自己徘徊在“可笑的(silly)”、无聊的儿童书籍与自

32、己读不懂的成人书籍之间。6.C选择的限制“最终(finally)”导致作者读的书越来越少。7.B高中的时候,作者“唯一(only)”阅读的书籍是英语课上老师指定的书籍,而且作者对于老师的选择也缺乏“热情(enthusiastic)”。8.D见上题解析。9.C根据本段中的“toomuchdiscussion”及“maybeitwasjustadescription”可知,对象征意义和主题的过度讨论“毁掉(ruined)”了书籍本身。湛蓝的天空也许并不“代表(represent)”任何事物,它或许仅仅只是描写。10.A见上题解析。11.B根据本段中对作者读书越来越少的描述可知,作者对文学的“兴趣(

34、mythoughtswithotherpeoplemeantthat”及“thesubtleaspectsofthebooks”可知,与他人交流想法能让作者更好地“理解(understand)”书中隐晦的意思。17.B根据本段中的again及第一段中对作者爱读书的描述可知,作者又开始享受读书的“快乐(pleasure)”了。18.D根据空前的“Ispendalotofmysparetimeinbookshops”可知,作者在书店里度过了很多闲暇的时光,也在咖啡店里“读书(reading)”。19.C根据空前的“widenyourhorizons”可知,读书是一种“扩大(expand)”词汇量的好方法。20.B根据第一段中对作者爱读书的描述可知,作者很高兴自己又“重新找回(rediscovered)”了对书籍的热爱。三、第一句:yearyears第二句:closedclose;growgrowing第三句:butand;rapidrapidly第四句:feltfeel;talk后加to/with第五句:theirtheirs第六句:去掉that第七句:honestlyhonest
