30、ant be what you cant see”可以推断，作者没有在电视上看到过女性足球比赛，没有榜样可循，因此认为自己不能成为一名足球运动员。故D项正确。3答案与解析：B考查理解具体信息的能力。根据第五段中的“but the rise in support shows the demand is there”可知，对女足的资助增多表明对女足有需求，由此可知B项正确。4答案与解析：A考查理解文章主旨要义的能力。本文的中心句为“It allows you to see what has led you here and, hopefully, how society has changed a

31、nd improved”。文章以作者想成为一名女足球运动员，却由于没有榜样可循而放弃切入话题，文章后半部分讲随着时代的发展，社会在进步，女足得到了更多的投资和关注，所以这篇文章主要想告诉我们随着时代的发展，社会在进步。故A项正确。B语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与社会科技完全自动驾驶的日子还很远【语篇解读】今年新技术将会使司机开车时不用手扶方向盘了，但是那并不意味着他们的车是完全自动驾驶的，完全自动驾驶的日子依然很远。5答案与解析：D考查理解具体信息的能力。根据第一段第一句可知，今年新科技会使司机开车时不用手操控方向盘。故答案为D。6答案与解析：A考查理解段落主旨要义的能力。通过第六段可知，本段

33、 attention”可知，新技术将会使司机开车时不用手扶方向盘了，但是那并不意味着他们的车是完全自动驾驶的，完全自动驾驶的日子依然很远。.七选五语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与自我完善自我增强自信心【语篇解读】对青少年来说，在别人面前避免回答问题并不罕见，因为他们太害羞或太害怕出错。有些时候，缺乏自信可能源于没有安全感。本文介绍了从自身做起，做出一些改变，从而增强自信的方法。1答案与解析：B考查上下文衔接。空后一句指出这是一种你能够且应该改变的正常情绪，结合语境可知，此处应说明缺乏自信心可能对你产生的影响。故B项符合语境。2答案与解析：C考查段落小标题。本段第一句提到如果你担心人们会看到你的缺

34、点，你会发现很难坚定地表达自己的意见，本段后两句介绍了针对这种情况建立自信的第一步审视自我。由此可知，本段与理解缺乏自信的原因有关。故C项符合语境。3答案与解析：A考查上下文衔接。根据本段的小标题可知，此段主旨是为你的优点喝彩。根据空前内容“认识到你的缺点或是问题所在还不够”和空后叙述的探索你自己的优点可知，A项符合语境。4答案与解析：G考查上下文衔接。本段主要列举了改变自身行为的一些做法。而G项内容“你可以通过调整自己例如多微笑等来增强自信”，与下文中的“锻炼并获得足够睡眠”以及“赞赏别人的优点”都属于具体的做法。故G项符合语境。5答案与解析：D考查上下文衔接。结合本段的小标题可知本段主要讲

36、多连接东亚、南亚和地中海欧洲的路线，之所以称之为丝绸之路是因为这条路线上最大的商品贸易是中国的丝绸。名词短语the Silk Road和动词name之间为被动关系。故用过去分词。3答案与解析：branches考查名词的单复数。branch为可数名词，根据前面的several可知，该处用复数形式。4答案与解析：deciding考查现在分词。分析该句结构可知，空处进行了省略，补充完整即为“when you are deciding your routine”，故用现在分词形式。该句意为：道路上的几个路线分支意味着你在决定路线时可以有多个选择。5答案与解析：its考查代词。名词短语“least co

37、nnected regions ”和“China”之间为所有关系。故用its。该句意为：历史上，中国的西北地区是联络最少的地区之一。6答案与解析： marks考查主谓一致和时态。该句主语为The Jiayuguan，为第三人称单数，故谓语动词用单数；该句陈述的是一般现象。故用一般现在时。【易错分析】该题容易错填marked，错误的原因是受该句插入语“where the impressive Jiayuguan Fort was built in the 1370s”所用的一般过去时的影响，忽略了主句的时态。7答案与解析：which考查定语从句。分析该句结构可知，空处引导定语从句，作of的宾语，

38、指代先行词The region。故用which。该句意为：该地区绵延2 400多公里，其中大部分被广袤的沙漠所分隔。8答案与解析：an考查冠词。该处泛指“一件容易的事情”，故用不定冠词。easy为元音音素开头的单词。故用an。9答案与解析：with考查固定搭配。该句意为：如果乘火车过夜，出发前要准备好食物和足够的瓶装水。equip.with为固定搭配，意为“配备”。10答案与解析：to meet考查动词不定式。该句意为：火车上通常也卖啤酒和葡萄酒，但价格很高，所以一定要自己带着，因为“干杯”是在旅行中结识当地人和交朋友的好方法。a way to do sth.为固定结构，意为“做某事的方法”。
