A考查词义猜测。由下文的解释“because I havent been able to see her and she is having a rough time in school.”可以看出，女朋友离开去上大学了，自己感觉很孤独，再加上女友在学校“having a rough time”，由此可以看出，这正是上文所说

11、的killer，一些使人烦恼的事情。3.

22、half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children, a new survey showed last Tuesday.The survey, published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $ 3 million or more in assets. It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and p

23、ass on their assets to their children”.The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self-made, first-generation rich. Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth. One in there parents sai

24、d they had never thought to do it.They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产) they plan to leave them.“There i

26、 the next.”The trend is led by the worlds richest man Bill Gates, who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金会), and not to his children.“We want to five it back to society in the way that it wi

27、ll have the most positive impact,” he said.Of his plans for his children, Gates said: “I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.” 1We can learn from the passage that .Arich parents may not know how to manage th

28、eir inheritanceBrich parents dont equal rich kids, at least in the USCAmerican children dont get to inherit their parents wealthDpoor children dont expect themselves to be as rich as their parents2According to the survey, most rich Americans .Athink they owe their children nothingBthink it best to g

30、an see that Bill Gates wants to show .Athe trend of leaving no inheritance to childrenBthe positive impact of charity on societyCthe way of giving back to societyDthe importance of independence for children【答案与解析】文章主要介绍了大多数美国富人处理他们资产的方式，告诉人们保持孩子的独立性比金钱更重要。1.B细节推断题，根据第二段、第三段可知，在美国，大多数富人们不把他们所有的资产告诉孩子

31、们，也不会让孩子们继承太多的资产，可以得出家长富有并不等于孩子富有。B项rich parents dont equal rich kids, at least in the US.(至少在美国是这样）家长富有并不等于孩子富有，符合题意。2.C逻辑推断题。根据第五段，“Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产) they plan to leave them.”(仅有34%的家长坚信他们的孩子有能力处理好留给他们的任何遗产）可以推出66%的家长对孩

32、子们处理资产的能力表示怀疑。所以C.doubt their childrens ability to handle wealth(怀疑他们的孩子处理资产的能力）符合逻辑。3.D根据第六段，第一句是一个that引导的定语从句，句意：那儿有一个关于富有家长们的预料，that引导的定语从句揭示了富有家长们怎么样的预料，那就是他们肩负着把他们的财富传给下一代的责任。因此，这里they指的是那些富有的家长们。4.D根据最后一段句意，我要给孩子们一些钱,但不是一个有意义的百分比，他们将需要工作,但他们会感觉合理照顾。由此可知，这样做的目的是不让孩子们过度的依赖父母，要让他们工作，学会独立。D.the im

33、portance of independence for children(独立对孩子们的重要性）符合最后一段的句意。4.Squirrels often communicate with whistles, chirps and chucks, which sound like the word “chuck” Whistles and chirps are like the sounds that many birds makeNow scientists have translated some of their squirrel-speakHare, a professor of zoo

34、logy at the University of Maniloha in Winnipeg, and his team managed to record squirrels alarm callsThe researchers studied the sounds and then played them back to 60 wild squirrels, which the scientists approached individually with a video recorder to capture(抓拍）their reponsesSome squirrels lifted

35、their heads up and becameAlert(警惕的）Creatures that were more frightened simply ran for their lives and dived into cavesIn effect then, whistles that mix with chucks say theres an enemy of average threat thats here, and whistles without chucks say theres an enemy of seemingly average threat around her

36、e somewhere, while pure chirps say, Im hiding here because theres an immediate danger Hare toldDiscovery NewsHare and some other researchers believe such sounds arc part of an advanced language that develops just as all other communication systemsAlthough squirrels risk their lives when they call ou

37、t to warn others of threats, other squirrels might admire this behaviour, thus increasingly the callers social status, like humans who look up to heroes. Hare added that other animals, such as birds, probably understand at least some squirrel language, since they also may benefit from the alarm call

38、s.In fact, another Canadian study found that deep-voiced, black-capped chickadees have their own language tooAccording to certain research, there are a lot of tidings in chickadees calls, such as directing fellows activities, keeping in contact between mates, and raising alarmsWhile chickadees and o

39、ther birds are often welcomed into gardens by homeowners, squirrels are frequently viewed as pests(害兽）. Hare wishes a greater understanding of the complex social lives and communication systems of squirrels will provide “hope that humans will gain a greater appreciation and stop doing harm to these

40、animals”.1The text mainly talks about Athe study on the language of squirrelsBthe comparison between squirrels and chickadeesCthe calling for the protection of squirrelsDthe ways for squirrels to escape from their enemies2If a squirrel is in a very dangerous situation, it would probably make _Awhist

41、les with chucks Bpure chirpsCwhistles without chucks Drepeated chucks3The underlined word “tidings” in pardgmph 6 probably means _Adifficulties Bpoises Cmessages Dlanguages4What can be learned from this text?ASquirrels communicate with cach other as humans do.BSome squirrels understand the recorded

42、alarm calls.COther animals also well understand the language of squirrelsDBirds such as chickadees dont have their own language1.A 主旨大意题。纵观全文可以看出，文章向我们讲述了Hare以及他带领的团队对松鼠们所使用的语言的研究。2.B细节理解题。由文章中的“while pure chirps say, Im hiding here because theres an immediate danger”可以看出，B项正确。3.C词义推测题。下文such as 后里列

43、举的“directing fellows activities, keeping in contact between mates, and raising alarms”都是是不同的信息，由此可以看出，该词和message同义。4.B 推理判断题。从文章的第二段中“Some squirrels lifted their heads up and becameAlert(警惕的）Creatures that were more frightened simply ran for their lives and dived into caves”可以看出，松鼠们对于“the recorded a

45、earchers also did an experiment that measured whether or not the threat of appearing un-American influenced respondents food choicesAfter being questioned about their ability to speak English，75 percent of Asian-Americans identified a typical American food as their favorite. Only 25 percent of Asian

46、-Americans who had not been asked if they spoke English did the same. When their American identity was called into question during a follow-up study, Asian-American participants also tended to choose typical American dishes，such as hamburgers and cheese sandwichesIn that experiment, 55 Asian-America

47、ns were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant. Some participants were told that only Americans could participate in the study. Those who chose the more typical American fare ended up consuming an extra 182 calories，including 12 grams of fat and 7 grams of saturated fat（饱和脂

48、肪）.People who feel like they need to prove they belong to a culture will change their habits in an attempt to fit in，said Sauna Cheryan，an author of the study and assistant professor of psychology at the University of Washington. If immigrants and their children choose unhealthy American foods over

49、healthier traditional foods across their lives，this process of fitting in could lead to poorer health. Cheryan added Social pressures，the study concluded, are at the heart of the problemIn American society today, being American is associated with being whiteAmericans，who dont fit this image even if

50、they were born here and speak English，feel that pressure to prove that theyre American, said Cheryan 1. The author wants to show that _.

54、段是文章的中心段，根据本段第一句中的内容可知作者意在表明移民倾向于食用高能量食物以便融人美国社会。2C推理判断题。从第二段的研究可知，75的被询问过英语能力的亚裔美国人将一种典型的美国食物看做他们的最爱，而只有25的没有被询问是否说英语的亚裔美国人这样做，由此可推断选择食物与亚裔美国人的处境有关。3A猜测词义题：结合上文中的“In that experiment。55 AsianAmericans were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant”以及画线词后面的内容可推知画线词表示的是提供的食物。4C推理判断题。根据倒数第二段后半部分中的内容可推断此人认为移民不惜以健康为代价去融人美国社会。5D细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句中的内容可知应该把不良的饮食习惯归咎于社会压力。
