27、rthquake prediction，in satellites for weather forecasting and in .are byproducts(副产品) of technological developments in the space industry！”可知，科学的进步与发展已经给我们带来了很多益处，所以spinoffs的意思是unexpected benefits。4答案与解析：C细节理解题。从第六段第一句话“.surely theadaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets.”可

28、知C项正确。5答案与解析：D主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了人类为什么要探索太空及人类可以从不断探索中受益，怎样避免潜在的危险，故选择D项。.七选五【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己近三年来逐渐改变了对野营的看法，从以前对野营活动嗤之以鼻，经过几次野营后慢慢喜欢上了野营，最后表达野营将逐渐成为人类回归自然的很好方式，建议人们找到属于自己的方式。1答案与解析：D上文 They had nothing in common with me 说明作者原来认为他不会成为野营者。而下文主要描述是“我”从最开始进行“rough travel”到有了“popup camper”(弹出式野营车)再到有了 t

29、railer 的过程，在这过程中作者对野营的爱好逐步增加，对野营的相关知识也在逐步增长，上下文呈转折关系。D项意为“然而在那之后我将会学到关于野营的很多知识”，起到转折作用，引出下文，符合语境。故正确答案为D。2答案与解析：C由下文 We slept in a tent，cooked over an open fire，and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom 可知，“我”的野营条件非常艰苦。C项意为“他们带我去的旅途非常艰苦”，引出下文，符合语境。故正确答案为C。3答案与解析：A由下文 Instead

30、，we had a popup camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner 可知，空格处是与下文形成转折的内容，而“我”此次旅行用了展开式营房。A项意为“这一次没有帐篷”，与下文形成转折，符合语境。故正确答案为A。4答案与解析：F由第三段第一句 going on another funfilled holiday 可知，“我”对这次旅行非常满意，而由下文 We have done a lot of it since 可知，“我们”都爱上了野营。F项意为“从这里旅行后，我全家都对野营产生了巨大的兴趣”，承上启下，符合语境。故正确答案为F

31、。5答案与解析：E由下文 sooner or later，everyone finds his or her way back to nature 可知，“我”希望每个人都能找到回归自然，也就是野营的个性化选择。形成这一观点的前提是“我”自己已经爱上了野营。E项意为“我必须承认我已经开始享受野营了”，引出下文，符合语境。故正确答案为E。.完形填空【语篇解读】本文是学校生活类记叙文。Hudson夫人是作者的老师。一天，她带着一个走路一瘸一拐的女孩进了教室，包括作者在内的几个男孩取笑这个女孩。而Hudson夫人用激励、爱心和智慧教育了作者，启迪了他的心灵，作者从此不再孤立女孩。这段经历对作者的一生

32、产生了很大的影响。1答案与解析：A上文讲到Hudson夫人带着一个走路一瘸一拐的女孩进了教室，将这个女孩介绍给班里的孩子们，让大家“欢迎”她，所以选A。welcome“欢迎”；introduce“介绍”；recommend“推荐”；follow“跟随”。2答案与解析：B上文讲到女孩走路一瘸一拐的，接着说Hudson夫人“缓缓地”将女孩带到了前排的一个座位上，所以选B。casually“随便地”；gently“温柔地，缓缓地”；nervously“紧张地”；hurriedly“匆忙地”。3答案与解析：DHudson夫人先是将女孩带到了前排的一个座位上，接着弯下腰来在她的耳边“小声说话”，所以选D

33、。spread“传播”；deliver“递送，发表 (演讲)，接生”；repeat“重复”；whisper“小声说”。4答案与解析：CHudson夫人讲完数学题后，“宣布”该休息了，所以选C。cry“喊叫，哭”；sigh“叹气”；announce“宣布”；agree“同意”。5答案与解析：B根据上文可知，老师宣布下课了，根据常识可推知，下课后，男孩子们先“跑了出去”，故raced out符合语境。look out“朝外看”；turn up“出现，露面，调高 (音量等)”；give up“放弃”。6答案与解析：C上文提到男孩子们跑了出去，所以过了一会儿，作者应该是回到了“教室”。school“学

34、校”；office“办公室”；classroom“教室”；platform“平台，月台，讲台”。7答案与解析：CHudson夫人对作者说，“Jack，你是一个好人”，她是用表扬的方法来促使作者转变自己的做法，使作者友善对待新来的女生。guard“卫兵”；colleague“同事”；person“人”；speaker“说话者”。8答案与解析：A作者取笑新来的女孩，Hudson夫人却说他是一个好人，这让作者感到有点“尴尬”，所以选A。embarrassed“尴尬的”；satisfied“满意的，满足的”；convinced“确信的”；worried“担忧的”。9答案与解析：CHudson夫人对作者

35、的正面“评价” (说作者是个好人)让作者知道了老师是非常喜欢他在身边的。answer“回答，答案”；explanation“解释，说明”；comment“评论，评述”；prediction“预测，预言”。10答案与解析：D上文讲到，Hudson夫人说作者是一个好人，然后“继续说”，“这就是我确信你今天会邀请Margaret一起玩的原因。”beg“祈求”；reply“回答”；urge“敦促”；continue“继续说”。11答案与解析：A参见上题解析。why“为什么”；how“如何，怎样”；when“何时”；where“哪里”。12答案与解析：B她“肯定的”话如同冰冷的刀子直指向作者的心，所以选

36、B。doubtful“怀疑的”；confident“自信的，肯定的”；honest“诚实的”；comfortable“舒服的”。13答案与解析：D上文提到作者孤立新同学，但老师却说他是个好人，所以作者心中疑惑：她“有可能”会猜到我们都说Margaret什么吗？她知道我有“多令人讨厌”吗？necessarily“必要地，必然地”；regularly“经常，定期地，有规律地”；hardly“几乎不”；possibly“可能”。14答案与解析：C参见上题解析。greedy“贪婪的”；smart“聪明的，机灵的”；awful“糟糕的，极讨厌的”；outgoing“外向的，友好的”。15答案与解析：D之

37、后，作者设法让Margaret“加入”到了他们的团体中。refuse“拒绝”；praise“表扬，赞美”；separate“使分离，使分开”；include“包含，包括，加入”。16答案与解析：A多年过去了，很多学校的回忆“逐渐消失”，但Hudson夫人给作者的“教训”却一直伴随着他。fade“逐渐消失，褪色”，exist“存在”；remain“继续存在”；refresh“恢复精神”。17答案与解析：D参见上题解析。process“进程”；principle“原则”；secret“秘密”；lesson“课，教训”。18答案与解析：BHudson夫人温和地引导作者，“激励”他去做正确的事情。force“强迫，逼迫”；challenge“激励，要求”；permit“允许”；order“命令”。19答案与解析：A作者的老师信任他，“由于”老师所做的一切，作者达到了老师的“期望”，所以选A。because of“因为，由于”；regardless of“不顾，不管”；in spite of“尽管”；in terms of“按照，在方面，以的措辞”。20答案与解析：B参见上题解析。belief“信仰，信条”；expectation“指望，期望”；success“成功”；standard“标准，水平”。
