29、新研究表明，这样做不仅不能解决问题，还容易给狮子招来杀身之祸。1答案与解析：B考查理解具体信息的能力。根据第一段中的“Sometime back, after a sixyearold lioness.into Central Kalahari Game Reserve, far from people”可知，Magigi之所以被转移到自然保护区是因为它总是猎杀牛。故B项正确。2答案与解析：B考查理解具体信息的能力。根据第二段可知，由于人类的发展，狮子的自然栖息地受到了极大的压缩，狮子离牲畜近了，就会捕食牲畜，这就加剧了狮子与当地农民的冲突，于是他们经常射杀或毒死狮子，从而导致狮子数量的下降。

30、故B项正确。3答案与解析：C考查推断的能力。根据最后一段中的“emphasis should be placed on reducing the chances of lions encountering and killing livestock in the first place”可知，根据Maude的话，在解决狮子袭击牲畜的问题上，预防应是第一位的。故C项正确。4答案与解析：A考查理解文章主旨要义的能力。根据全文内容可知，本文主要讲了重新安置狮子不仅不能解决狮子猎食牲畜的问题，还有可能会危及狮子自身的安全。故A项适合作本文的标题。B语篇类型：新闻报道主题语境：人与自然人与动物引导象群南

31、迁【语篇解读】本文介绍了六月初中国云南昆明市附近出现了象群南迁的现象，原因是中国北方气候不适宜大象生存。政府努力引导象群南迁，使其回归到适宜的栖息地。5答案与解析：B考查理解具体信息的能力。根据第一段中的“Asian elephants need.will be for them”可知，中国北方的气候不适合象群生存。故B项正确。6答案与解析：A考查理解具体信息的能力。根据第二段中的“On June 6th, a bull elephant.made off on its own”可知，6月6日，一头不到10岁的公象离开了象群。故A项正确。7答案与解析：C考查理解词汇的能力。根据第三段中的“Th

32、ey have been there.no sign of returning soon”可知，小象离象群约20公里远，目前仍没有很快归队的迹象，再结合第四段首句可知，象群可能在等待离队的大象归队。由此可知，象群在山区“徘徊”。故C项正确。8答案与解析：C考查理解文章主旨要义的能力。本文主要介绍了政府正努力引导象群返回适宜的栖息地。另外，文中多处出现了“back home”“return journey”“return to their original habitat”等词语，故本文应用The Long Way Home作本文的标题。故C项正确。.七选五语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与社会研究

33、发现幸福感会随年龄增长而增加【语篇解读】本文主要讨论人们在年老之后更加快乐、更少担心。1答案与解析：D考查上下文衔接。设空处位于第二段最后一句，设空前一句说了研究团队关于压力水平的发现，即最高的压力水平出现在哪些年龄段，所以该空可能与压力水平的下降有关。故选D。2答案与解析：G考查上下文衔接。该空前一句说的是随着年龄变大，男人和女人有相似的情绪模式，所以此处应接着说基于男女对比的研究发现。故选G。3答案与解析：A考查段落主旨句。空处位于句首。根据后面的解释(一个理论认为，人变老时会变得对他们所拥有的事物更加感激，而且能更好地控制情绪)可知，A项“那么为什么幸福感会随着年龄增加？”符合语境。故选

34、A。4答案与解析：E考查段落主旨句。空处位于句首，根据后面的内容可知，人们到了80多岁的时候，睡眠质量问题最少，这是随着变老出现的又一个好处。故选E。5答案与解析：F考查上下文衔接。前一句说，有个流行的观点认为，随着年龄的增长，睡眠问题应该增加。而空后“But”表转折，故可推知此空和前一句为顺承关系，应与睡眠问题的增加有关。故选F。.语法填空语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与社会社会与文化中国扇文化【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了扇子在中国的起源、发展及其文化内涵。1答案与解析：times考查名词复数。time当“时期，时代，年代，世道”讲时，一般用复数。所以空处需要填times。2答案与解析：nati

35、onal考查词形转换。分析句子结构可知，空处修饰后面的名词style，需要用形容词。所以填national。3答案与解析：as考查介词。此处考查固定搭配be regarded as，意为“被视为/认为”。所以空处需要填as。4答案与解析：appeared考查谓语动词的时态和语态。分析句子结构可知，appear在句中作谓语，根据时间状语about 3,000 years ago可知，时态为一般过去时，“appear”无被动语态。所以空处需要填appeared。5答案与解析：and/so考查连词。空前空后皆为完整的句子，因此空处需要一个连词，结合句意可知，前后是并列或因果关系。所以空处需要填and

36、/so。6答案与解析：used考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，本句的谓语动词是was，所以use在句中是非谓语，且use与主语The material之间构成了逻辑上的动宾关系。所以空处需要填used。7答案与解析：who/that考查关系词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，在从句中作主语，先行词为表示人的名词The person。所以空处需要填who/that。8答案与解析：gradually考查词形转换。空处修饰后面的动词became，需要用到副词。所以空处需要填gradually。9答案与解析：popularity考查词形转换。根据空前的the和空后的of可知，空处一般用名词，所以需要用到popular的名词形式popularity。10答案与解析：was introduced考查谓语动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。此处与became并列作本句的谓语，所以时态应该用一般过去时；此处表示这项技术被引入欧洲，应用被动语态；主语this skill为第三人称单数。所以空处需要填was introduced。
