26、rmed soil. The outmost layer of the earth is soil. There are many ways in which large pieces of rock break up into smaller ones. Wind, water, heat and cold help to break up rocks.

28、are worn down to smaller pieces. The heat of the sun is also helpful in breaking up rocks. When the sun shines, the rocks become very hot. If these rocks are suddenly cooled, they may crack.

48、d disaster, who should they be? The pairs of students had to talk over the problem either face to face or bycomputers.

49、th cameras so that students could see each other, this limited the personal side of the conversation. Generally the information was not extremely personal.

Yours， Chen Yu答案解析：1-5 CBAAC 6一l0 CBCBA ll15 ABCBA l6820 ACBAB21.C考查冠词。最高级形容词前用定冠词，故第一空用the；后一空处有of结构

66、限定，故也用定冠词。22.B考查代词辨析。句中所要表达的意思是说话人不能再面对像昨天那样的另外一天，所以用another，表示”再一，又一”。23.A考查形容词辨析。Frank把药放在最上面的抽屉里是为确保不让孩子们够到。accessible表示”可得到的；易接近的”。后三项分别表示”相关的”可接受的”敏感的”，都不符合语意。24.D考查时态和主谓一致。语意表示既是作家又是教师的史密斯自从搬到悉尼经历了无数的成败，由句中since可知主句要用现在完成时，且主语表示史密斯身兼两职，为单数，故选D项。25.C考查动词辨析。根据前一句中的内容可知父母想给孩子提供”庇护”，让他们避免各种危险，无论是真

67、实的，还是想象的。A项表示”认出；发现”，B项表示”开除；解散”， D项表示”区分”，都不符合语意。26.C考查省略结构。if not tired from work是if Im not tired from work的省略形式。在条件、时间等状语从句中，如果从句的主语与主句的主语栩同，可把从句l1的主语和be动词同时省略。27.D考查定语从句。后半句是非限制性定语从句，which代指前面整句话的内容，在从句中作find的宾语。28.B考查倒装句。句意：有一会儿什么都没有发生，然后传来了众人齐喊的声音。以then引起的句子中，谓语动词常为become，go等，句子要用完全倒装，故选B项。29.

68、D考查名词性从句。句意：西方的很多年轻人期望把婚姻可能是人生中最重要的决定几乎完全交给运气(来决定)。leave后的部分是宾语从句，what在从句中作主语。30.D考查倍数表达法。句意：根据数据，男性死于皮肤癌的可能性是女性的两倍还要多。twice asas表示”是的两倍”。31.C考查句子结构。根据语意及句中破折号可知后句的部分是一个祈使句，应浚用动列原形。32.D考在连词的用法。句意：这份菜单中的所有菜，除非有说明，否则都是供两到三人食用。中间部分是”unless they are stated”的省略形式。unless表示”除非；如果不”。33.D考查情态动词。根据前一句中的内容可知说话

69、人”可能”晚到一会儿，此处表示的是不太肯定的推测，故用might。34 C 考查固定用法。句意：不遗余力地确保来自德国的这些学生在南昌玩得开心。Spare notrouble to do sth. 表示”不遗余力地做某事”。35.D考查交际用语。根据答语的下一句可知答话人”还没有”完成。前三项分别表示”根本不”。不大可能”一点儿也不”，都与语意不符。 【解题导语】 滂沱大雨倾盆而下，可是天真善良的小女孩儿却执意要和妈妈在雨中穿梭。她的话感动了众人。于是瓢泼大雨中出现了一道匪夷所思的亮丽风景线.36.B 下文提到女孩儿建议和妈妈冒雨前行，由此可知外面在”下倾盆大雨”。pour表示”(雨)倾盆而下

70、”。37.C当时雨下得很大，作者和众人都在沃尔玛的门”内(in side)”站着。38.A根据小女孩儿所说的话可知她和众人一样，不愿意长时间等待下去，这种等待很”烦人”。annoying表示”讨厌的，令人恼火的”。39.C 上文已经提到小女孩儿所说的那句话，所以此处是”重复”一遍。另外，第41空后面也有线索提示。A项表示 ”回答”，B项表示”声明”，D项表示”宜布”，都不符合语境。40.D 由于当时雨下得很大，所以女孩儿的妈妈建议等到雨势 ”稍弱”的时候再出去。slow down表示”慢下来，减小，减弱”。41.D小女孩儿又等待了大约一分钟，此处表示”又一”，因此用another。假如选择A项

71、，应改为one more。42.A由上文可知，小女孩对妈妈说了好几次要在雨中行走，所以应当是”拉(pulled)”着妈妈的胳膊。43.B在雨中行走会被淋”湿”是众所周知的常识，所以女孩儿的妈妈对女儿的话予以否认。第47空前面有线索提示。44.C 如果上帝能够让我们”熬过”这个难关，那么他就可以让我们熬过任何困难。45.B上一句提到整个人群中死一般的寂静，由此可知作者”发誓”除了雨声之外，再也听不到任何声响。swear”郑重声明(自己说的是真话)”，符合语境。46.D根据本句后半部分中的内容可知女孩儿的妈妈”停顿了一会儿，思考着如何回答。47.A如果我们被雨淋湿了，也许我们正需要”洗一洗”。此外

72、，第51空后面的”I needed washing.”也是线索提示。48.A小女孩儿建议和妈妈在雨中跑步前进，所以应是从车辆旁边”冲”过。49.C 两个人当时没有带雨伞，所以用购物”袋”护住头。50.D下文提到几个人也冒雨前进，由此可知这儿个人是在效仿这对母女，”跟着”她们冲向雨里。51.B这几个人像孩子一样在雨|”一路上”尖叫，大笑，跑向他们的车。way表示“距离，时段”，all the way指他们跑向停车的地方的那段距离。52.D根据本句后半部分中的money可知环境或人们可以拿走你的”物质”财富。material possessions表示”物质财富”。A项表示”身体的；物理学的”，不

73、符合语境。53.A上文提到小女孩儿的爸爸患了癌症，由此可知他们可以带走你的”健康”。54.C根据下一句中的memories可知没有人能够拿走你珍贵的”回忆”。 55.A不要忘记每天”腾出”时问并抓住机会去创造回忆。 【解题导语】 起初，地球的表面都是巨大的岩石，后来，它们逐渐变成了土壤。这其中的原因是什么?本文将带你探究其中的奥秘。56.A推理判断题。根据笫一段中的描述，尤其是”Then slowly”可知土壤的形成是一个非常缓慢的过程。57.C 推理判断题。结合最后段中的内容可推测温度的急剧变化会加速岩石的碎裂。58.B正误判断题。根据笫二段的两句中的内容可知巨大的岩石碎裂成小块岩石的方式很

74、多，风、水、热、冷等都是其中的因素，由此可推断B项内容错误。59.A主旨大意题。第一段概述了文章的大意，根据本段最后两句可知本文叙述的足岩石形成土壤的过程，下文分述的是岩石的碎裂方式，B项不具有概括性，故排除。 【解题导语】 加利福尼亚的一名教师别出心裁地设计出一培养孩子解决问题能力的计划，让他们在城市规划中自由驰骋，潜移默化地学到观察问题、分析问题和解决问题的知识。60.C细节理解题。由第一段最后一句以及最后一段的内容可知这个计划的目的是培养孩子解决问题的能力。61.D细节理解题。根据第二段第三句话中的”With the aid of an architect.”可知建筑师每周来教室一次的目

75、的是在这个计划中为孩子们提供帮助。62.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中中间部分的”says the teacher who developed this program.”可知这个计划的设汁者是一位教师。63.D推理判断题。第二段后半部分提到孩子们可以充分发挥他们丰富的想象力，无须害怕任何责备，因为在未来设计方面没有错误的答案，由此可推测孩子们在这个计划中可以无拘无束，不必担心犯过错。 【解题导语】 能被选拔为G20峰会的厨师实属荣幸，也是挑战。食谱既要反映当前不景气的经济现象，又要体现本国的饮食文化。64.D猜测词义题。第一段后半部分提到菜单应该能够反映出贸易和工业很不繁荣而且就业率下降的现实
