26、aturallysuitedtocommunicationsandtrade.NewYorkCity,forexample,isnearalargeharbouratthemouthoftheHudsonRiver.”可知,像纽约市这样的城市往往占据重要的地理位置,交通、通信和贸易方便,由此推知答案为C项。2.B推理判断题。根据第二段倒数第一、二句“Ofthefirst20,000peoplewhodugforgold,4,000gotrich.About100ofthesestayedrichmenfortherestoftheirlives.”可知,最早来淘金的20,000人里,有4,00

27、0人依靠挖掘黄金致富,占总人数的1/5。故选B项。3.B细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Butsoon,thegoldthatDawsondependedonhadallbeenfound.Thecitywascrowded.whentheyheardtherewerenewgolddiscoveriesinAlaska,theyleftDawsonCityasquicklyastheyhadcome.”可知,金矿被开采殆尽,特别是当得知阿拉斯加发现新的金矿后,人们已经没有兴趣继续留在这里。据此得出导致很多人离开道森的主要原因是要到别处寻找新的金矿,答案为B项。4.A主旨大意题。A项“一座城市的

28、兴衰”;B项“加拿大淘金热”;C项“荒野之旅”;D项“道森的旅游业”。文中主要介绍加拿大城市道森因为金矿而崛起,又因为金矿被开采殆尽而衰落,经济只能依靠旅游业支撑,所以A项能准确概括文章内容;文章重心在讲城市的形成,而非淘金热活动本身,所以B项排除;C项与文章内容不符,排除;道森的旅游业只在文章最后一段最后一句提到,不能作为主旨内容。【解题导语】本文是议论文。作者认为人们毕业后仍应坚持看书、学习。5.C细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Mostofthemwillseldomeverreadanothernon-fictionbook.theircareergoals.”可知,作者认为很多人毕业后很

29、少阅读非小说类书籍。6.D段落大意题。根据第二段中的“.readingbooksaboutaspecificsubjectthatisofinteresttoyouregardingyourcareer.”及“Anothertipistotrytoreadmaterialwrittenbysomeonewithhands-onexperienceinthefield.”可知,本段主要讲人们应该读什么样的作品以推进自己的事业目标。7.C推理判断题。根据第三段末的“.youcouldgetupahalfhourearliereachdaytoreadundisturbedand,asBrianTr

30、acysays,milkthegoldenhour.”可知,作者引用博恩崔西的话是为了表明如何找时间阅读。8.C细节理解题。根据第四段开头的“Butbyfarthemostpowerfulwayoffindingthetimetolearnismakingyourcaryourcollegeonwheels.”可知,作者认为最好的读书时间是在车上的时间。.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了表情符号在职场沟通中的重要作用。1.D根据上文出现的messagingplatforms和下文出现的westerncountries可知,信息平台在全球迅速普及开来。故选D项。2.A根据前一句出现的

31、emojis和下文的结果状语可知,此处表示带有表情符号的信息更有利于交谈。故选A项。3.G上文提到,办公室里的人们年龄不同,交流方式可能是一个挑战,由此推知此处应该是解决方案。故选G项。4.B根据上文出现的annoying和下文出现的friendlier可知,B项承上启下,符合语境。故选B项。5.F根据下文的thatpositiveoutcome可知,F项中的ahappierworkplace刚好与之吻合。故选F项。.The old saying “The early bird catches the worm”showshows us the importance of planning,w

32、orking hard and trying constantconstantly.To achieve outstanding results,the most people must plan ahead and work diligently to overcome all kindkinds of difficulties.That has been my own experience,eithertoo.When I first started at high school,I seldom passed my exams,sobecause I never prepared well.Later,myteacher,Mr.Black,advised meto plan everything in advance.SheHeasked me to study hard as well.After a year of putting his advice ontointo practice,I can now easily pass all my exams.There are no shortcuts to succeed.success/succeeding
