39、阿拉伯语比起来，这两种语言的各个字母之间差异更加鲜明。3答案与解析：A推理判断题。由第五段可知，讲阿拉伯语的成年人辨识阿拉伯语单词时仅用到了左脑。当阿拉伯语阅读者看到简单的单词并用右脑处理这一信息时，他们根本就分辨不出这些单词。B【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者去印度时发现那里的人们缺乏清洁的饮用水，由此得到启发，回国后参加了探索教育3M青年科学家挑战赛，有机会与吉姆琼扎博士合作，开发了一个利用太阳能的净水系统。作者凭自己的发明在决赛中获奖，荣获“美国顶尖青年科学家”的称号。4答案与解析：B推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句I was troubled to learn that million

40、s of people, most of them children in developing countries, die each year because of waterrelated diseases.可知，作者提到自己去印度的经历是为了说明人们缺乏清洁水的问题。故选B项。5答案与解析：D词义猜测题。根据My invention is green and costeffective可知作者有了某项发明，再由画线词后的内容可知作者希望自己的发明用到有水污染的地方，故implementing是“应用”的意思。6答案与解析：C细节理解题。根据第三段You could hear a pin

41、 drop as he opened the paper with the winners name可知，宣布获奖名单时，你甚至可以听到大头针落地的声音。由此可知，观众都非常安静地坐着，故选C项。7答案与解析：A推理判断题。根据全文可知，作者主要按时间顺序回顾了自己在探索教育3M青年科学家挑战赛中夺冠的经历。故选A项。.七选五【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了空降消防员这一特殊的职业。1答案与解析：E根据后一句话Smokejumpers help to stop this.中的“this”指代火造成的损失和伤害可知，E项(同时，家园被毁，成千上万的人死去)与前文森林被烧毁是并列关系，符合语境

42、。故选E项。2答案与解析：A根据这一段解释了什么是smokejumper可知，空格处与Smokejumpers are a special type of firefighter.构成了问答的关系。故选A项。3答案与解析：F根据上文谈到的空降消防员在工作期间需要携带的东西可知，F项(他们也会携带水，只是数量很有限)符合语境。故选F项。4答案与解析：C根据后文For example.可知后文举例说明了这一职业对于体重的要求，所以C项(更重要的是你的身高和体重)切题。故选C项。5答案与解析：D根据下文的But for these firefighters, smokejumping isnt ju

43、st a job. They love being able to jump out of planes, fight fires, and live in the forest.可知，但是对于他们来说，这不仅仅是一份工作，他们还很喜欢自己能跳下飞机救森林大火，并且喜欢住在森林里。由But表转折可知，选项中与空后内容形成对比的只有D项(这项工作既危险还费时)，故选D项。.语法填空【语篇解读】本文讲述了Christopher用玩具蒸汽机带动缝纫机使轮子转动，想为母亲减轻工作负担的故事。1答案与解析：turns考查动词的时态和主谓一致。分析句子可知本句含有if引导的条件状语从句，主句为一般将来时，

44、从句用一般现在时表将来，从句主语为a machine，谓语动词用单数形式。2答案与解析：so考查连词。句意：Christopher知道她总是有很多工作，而且她很固执，以至于他几乎做任何事都无法改变她的想法。so.that.如此以至于，引导结果状语从句。3答案与解析：her考查代词。此处指Christopher的母亲的想法，change ones mind意为“改变某人的想法”。4答案与解析：bought考查非谓语动词。此处为过去分词短语作后置定语。buy与其逻辑主语a toy steam engine构成被动关系，应用过去分词形式。5答案与解析：doing考查非谓语动词。finish后面跟动名

45、词作宾语。6答案与解析：by考查介词。by hand意为“用手，手工”。7答案与解析：have worked考查动词的时态。根据下文for too many years可知应用现在完成时。8答案与解析：disappointed考查形容词。句意：Christopher感到非常失望。根据上文felt可知此处应填形容词作表语，应用ed结尾的形容词。disappointed意为“失望的”。9答案与解析：behavior/behaviour考查名词。根据上文mothers为名词所有格可知此处应填behave的名词形式。10答案与解析：which考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句，且从句中缺少主语，指物，故填which。
