46、all or basketball on the high school，college，or professional level.Sports may seem like an innocent pleasure，but it is important to look under the surface.In reality，sports have reached a point where they play too large a role in daily life.They take up too much media time，play too large a role in t

47、he raising of children，and give too much power and prestige(声望) to athletes.The overemphasis(过度强调) on sports can be seen most obviously in the vast media coverage of athlete events.It seems as if every race，meet，or match is shown on one television channel or another.In addition，sports make up about

48、30 percent of local news.Radio offers a full list of games and a wide variety of sports shows.Furthermore，many daily papers such as US Today are devoting more and more space to sports coverage.The way we raise and educate our children also illustrates our sports craziness.As early as six or seven，ki

49、ds are placed in little leagues，often to play under screaming coaches and pressuring parents.Later，in high school，students who are singled out by the school and the community are not those who are the best academically but those who are the best athletically.And college sometimes seems to be more ab

52、itiveness we experience in our daily lives acted out on playing fields. 答案精析语篇解读本文是记叙文。文章讲述了一个来自美国阿拉巴马州，自称是“奥斯汀总统”的四岁小男孩奥斯汀的爱心故事。21A细节理解题。根据第一段中的“With his red cape(披肩) covering his shoulders，Austin Perine feeds the hungry and homeless population throughout the city in an effort to show love to those

53、 who needfood and smiles”可知，奥斯汀同情无家可归的人。22A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Austin began to get concerned”可知，奥斯汀在看了关于熊猫的纪录片后，对即将无家可归的小熊猫很是担心。23C细节理解题。根据最后一段TJ所说的话可知，奥斯汀和他的父亲打算成立一个机构，请专家帮助无家可归的人重回职场。语篇解读本文是说明文。作为最早被人类驯化的动物之一，马是人类的重要伙伴和好朋友，在人类的发展史上发挥了重要作用。在被人类驯化的过程中，马逐渐形成了自己与人类共处的高度的社会认知能力，研究人员也通过实验证明了这一点。24B写作手法题。根据第二段

54、对实验过程的描述可知，该段主要对实验的细节进行了描写。故选B。25D细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，饲养员是否看见食物被藏起来，对马的行为产生了影响。故选D。26A词义猜测题。根据该词所在句的语境可知，此处表示“这两个实验还表明马有很高的认知技能，能够让它们根据人们的认知状态灵活改变它们对人类的行为”。第三段中的“whether the horses behavior changed in other situations”中的changed也是提示。alter意为“改变”。语篇解读这是一篇议论文。文章通过对教育目的的探讨告诉我们，学校应拓宽其教学内容并设定更高更广泛的教育目标。27C细节理解

55、题。根据第二段中的“our British education holds a higher ideal(理想)equipping young people with selfconfidence and an understanding of the world around them”可知，在作者看来，教育的目的在于让年轻人拥有自信并了解周围的世界。故选C。28B推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Yet I believe that.what progress they have made.”可知，应试教育的现状令作者担忧，而考试又是有必要的，因为考试能反映学生的进步情况；根据第四段中的“I a

56、m not suggesting that tests should be withdrawn.”和“schools need to have the confidence to.not an end in itself”可知，作者并没有建议取消考试，而是说学校应勇于追求比考试更广泛的教育目标，考试本身不是教育的目的，而应被作为验证学习成果的方式。由此可推知，在作者看来，当下的考试必不可少但有一定的缺陷。故选B。29D推理判断题。根据第五段中的内容可知，虽然很多教师自己也知道学生被“亏待”了，但他们缺乏自信和支持来摆脱应试教育；而作者认为教师将自己对学科的热爱放在首位能让学生的参与度更高，从而

57、促成好的结果，比如更好的考试成绩、学生更自信等。由此可推知，作者认为教师的关注不应仅限于考试。故选D。30C标题归纳题。纵观全文可知，本文由“教育的目的是什么”开篇，进而论述了学校应拓宽其教学内容并设定更高更广泛的教育目的，而不仅仅注重考试。故C项作本文标题最佳。语篇解读本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人们在喂鸟活动中可能造成的一些对鸟不利的事情，并给出了较为实用有效的解决办法。31B前一句提到很多鸟类专家说喂鸟对人来说往往比鸟更令人愉快。下段提到了人类喂鸟最常犯的错误。观察各选项可知，B项是最佳答案。32G前一句对投食点的选择提出建议把鸟食罐放置在距离窗户至少一米远的地方。接下来给出这种建议可以带来

58、的好处，即防止鸟受惊时撞到玻璃死亡。故G项符合语境。33C空后的“They eat a lot and do not leave much food for other birds.”描述了可能出现的情况，所以该空要说明造成这一情况的原因。故C项符合语境。34D根据该段的内容可知，该段强调了保持鸟食的新鲜，故D项符合语境。35A上文提到要小心选择鸟浴池，空后建议在水中放些石头，这是为了避免容器过深造成安全隐患。故A项符合语境。下文举了蜂鸟很小且喜欢在盛水的树叶上洗澡的例子也是一种提示。语篇解读本文属于记叙文，讲述作者为接待一名聋人，专门学习了手语，让客人的旅行很特别，同时客人也给作者带来了惊喜

59、。36C句意为：几周前我接到一个预订，预订信息里面附了一条信息，说她将和耳聋的父亲一起来。guest客人；invitation邀请；booking预订；warning警告。根据第二段中for the surname on the booking可知，客人预订了房间，故选C。37Adeaf聋的；blind瞎的；forgetful健忘的；stubborn固执的。根据后文作者去学手势语可知，客人的父亲听不见，故选A。38Bdiscuss讨论；deal处理；cooperate合作；bargain讨价还价。根据文章可知，客人提前告知作者，希望作者提前准备，能够很好应对，故选B。39Dsoon很快；lon

60、g长的；formal正式的；smooth顺利的。根据文章可知，客人想让父亲的旅行尽可能地顺利，故选D。40Cguide引导；invite邀请；check登记；drive驾车。根据文章可知，作者是宾馆的接待人员，办理客人的登记入住和退房，故选C。check in(旅馆、机场等)登记，报到。41Bbody身体；sign手势；official官方的；foreign外国的。根据文章可知，客人的父亲是聋人，需用手势语，下文“sign language”也是提示。故选B。42Aask问；pay支付；charge要价；apply申请。根据生活常识可知，客人入住，需要核对预订信息，故选A。43Dgreet打招

61、呼；decide决定；forget忘记；realize意识到。根据文章可知，因为有预订信息，所以作者听到姓氏后意识到是这位客人，故选D。44Chour小时；day天；week周；month月。根据前文a few weeks ago可知，客人几周前预订了房间，作者提前两周学习手语，倒数第三段末句也是提示。故选C。45Bfluent流利的；terrible糟糕的；standard标准的；helpful有帮助的。根据空后but一词可知，作者手势语学得不好，故选B。46Astay停留；travel旅行；study学习；dinner正餐。此处作者想表达的意思是：虽然作者的手语不好，但是在入住期间如果有什

62、么需要都可以找他。故选A。47Alearn学习；leave离开；book预订；buy买。根据前文可知，作者专门为客人学习了手语，故选A。48D根据文章可知，作者专门学习手语与客人交流，让客人宾至如归，故选D。49Bfair公平的；enough足够的；natural自然的；regular有规律的。根据文章可知，作者对客人的反应很满意，故选B。50Csleep睡觉；notice注意；work工作；wait等待。根据空后but可知，客人给作者留了一张便条，故作者当时没上班，故选C。51Chealthy健康的；normal正常的；amazing惊讶的；hopeful充满希望的。自从作者给他们办理登记入

64、疑；appreciate感激；suggest建议。故选C。56It考查it的用法。本句中that引导的从句是真正的主语，故句首用It作形式主语。57were考查动词的时态和主谓一致。本句的主语是people，表示复数概念，再根据其后置定语in ancient times可知用一般过去时，故设空处填were。58when考查关系副词。设空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词time且在从句中作时间状语，故填when。59identification考查名词。设空处前面是介词of，故此处填名词identification。60documents考查名词复数。document是可数名词，根据设空处前面的All

65、可知此处填其复数形式documents。61is kept考查动词的时态和语态。tradition与keep之间是被动关系，再根据本句开头的时间状语Today可知用一般现在时，故设空处填is kept。62certainly考查副词。设空处修饰动词need，故填副词certainly。63amazing考查形容词。设空处修饰名词souvenir且意为“令人惊讶的”，故填形容词amazing。64translated考查非谓语动词。have sth.done是固定搭配，表示“使某事被做”。65from考查介词。be carved from意为“由雕刻而成”。应用文写作参考范文Dear Jack，
