Moussambani made an energetic start in the first 50 meters, but in the final half of the race, he struggled to stay afloat (漂浮着), so much so that those

B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了奥运会100米自由泳项目世界最慢记录的创造者埃里克莫桑巴尼鼓舞人心的故事。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Unfortunately, football is far and away the most popular sport in Moussambanis h

105、ome country. Living in such a football-crazed country, it was difficult for Moussambani to find a place to train consistently (持续地) (不幸的是，在莫桑巴尼的祖国，足球无疑是最受欢迎的运动。生活在这样一个足球狂热的国家，莫桑巴尼很难找到一个地方持续训练)”可知，在莫桑巴尼的祖国，崇尚足球运动，对游泳不够重视，这导致他无法得到正规的训练。故选A项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“The day of the 100m freestyle came. Moussam

106、bani made an energetic start in the first 50 meters, but in the final half of the race, he struggled to stay afloat (漂浮着), so much so that those on the sidelines considered jumping in and helping him out of the water.

108、all about, a commentator said. The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning, but taking part. The essential thing in life is not defeating others, but fighting well, he said.(这就是奥运会的意义所在，一位评论员说。在奥林匹克运动会中最重要的事情不是取胜，而是参与。人生最重要的不是打败别人，而是好好战斗。)”可知，莫桑巴尼在奥运会中的表现正是“重在参与”的最好体现。由此可推知，在这位评论员看来

109、，莫桑巴尼展现了奥运精神。故选A项。【7题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“Moussambani hopes to grow the sport in his country.(莫桑巴尼希望在他的国家发展这项运动)”可知，莫桑巴尼现在希望能在自己的国家推广游泳运动。故选B项。CA unique curved (弯曲的) barrier has been designed by researchers at Imperial College London, who publish new findings in the journal Cities & Health on how the

110、 structure can protect people from the damaging effects of air pollution.The health concerns arising from lower air quality are more significant amongst lower-income communities which are more likely to be near roads with heavy traffic. Similarly, children are more readily exposed (接触) to air pollut

111、ion simply because they live closer to the ground, where heavier pollutants settle over time.Dr Tilly Collins from Imperials Centre for Environmental Policy found this issue particularly worrying, especially after noticing the severe pollution in the air while watching her child playing netball in a

112、 school playground alongside a busy London A-road. “I started researching the effect of walls along roads.” Dr Collins said. “It became evident that along the pedestrian (行人的) side of these roadside walls, there are vortexes (涡旋) where the air quality can actually be even worse as the pollutants get

113、 trapped in them.”Initially building off simple models, Dr Collins and Dr Huw Woodward, also from the Centre for Environmental Policy, explored ideas of urban design that would mitigate these vortex effects and improve air quality for pedestrians and especially children.Inspired by sound-walls along

114、side motorways in Germany and the Netherlands, the researchers found that curved structures would more effectively reflect pollutants back towards the roads and would very rapidly improve air quality for pedestrians in an inexpensive manner.When asked about the challenges faced during this project,

115、Dr Collins said: “Initially, it was difficult to convince others to get on board. The focus is very much on successfully reducing smoke from cars, but there are things we can do now to protect our children.”“With increased attention being placed on the challenges associated with air pollution, there

116、 is a need for unique and effective urban design, and these curved barriers are able to handle these challenges head on, providing huge benefits to the general public,” said Marcus Grant, editor in chief of Cities & Health.8.

C【解析】【导语】本文是说明文。伦敦帝国理工学院的研究人员设计出了弯曲的路障，可保护人们尤其是儿童免受空气污染的破坏性影响。【详解】1. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“children are more readily exposed (接触) to air pollution simply because they live closer to the ground

120、(儿童更容易暴露在空气污染中，仅仅是因为他们生活在离地面更近的地方，随着时间的推移，更多的污染物会沉淀下来。)”可知，孩子们身高相对成人更矮小，生活的环境与地面的距离更近，而地面是重污染聚集地，所以孩子们更容易受到空气污染的侵害。故选A。2.词句猜测题。根据第三段中对涡旋的解释“vortexes (涡旋) where the air quality can actually be even worse as the pollutants get trapped in them(空气中有漩涡，当污染物被困在漩涡中时，空气质量会变得更糟。)”可知，涡旋处空气质量非常差。结合划线单词所在句子“Ini

121、tially building off simple models, Dr Collins and Dr Huw Woodward, also from the Centre for Environmental Policy, explored ideas of urban design that would mitigate these vortex effects and improve air quality for pedestrians and especially children.(柯林斯博士和同样来自环境政策中心的休伍德沃德博士最初建立了简单的模型，探索城市设计的理念，以.这些

122、涡流的影响，改善行人，尤其是儿童的空气质量。)”可知，涡旋处空气质量非常差，所以为了改善空气质量，Collins博士和Woodward博士的设计应该是要“减少”涡旋效应。由此可知，划线单词“mitigate”与B项“Reduce(减少)”意思一样，故选B。3. 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“the researchers found that curved structures would more effectively reflect pollutants back towards the roads and would very rapidly improve air quality fo

123、r pedestrians in an inexpensive manner(研究人员发现，弯曲的结构能更有效地将污染物反射回道路，并且能以一种廉价的方式非常迅速地改善行人的空气质量。)”可知，这些科研人员发现弯曲的结构可以更有效地将污染物反射回道路，从而快速提高空气质量。由此可知，研究人员的设计有望减少行人暴露于污染空气的机会。故选C。4.推理判断题。根据最后一段Grant的言论“With increased attention being placed on the challenges associated with air pollution, there is a need for

124、unique and effective urban design, and these curved barriers are able to handle these challenges head on, providing huge benefits to the general public,”(随着人们越来越关注与空气污染相关的挑战，我们需要独特而有效的城市设计，这些弯曲的屏障能够迎头应对这些挑战，为公众带来巨大的利益。)”可知，随着应对空气污染的挑战越来越受到人们关注，亟需独特、有效的城市设计来防治空气污染，而这种弯曲的路障可以有效解决这些问题，给公众带来益处。由此可推知，Gra

136、咖啡馆就在附近)”可知，住在Gothic Quarter的作者，家四周有美丽的建筑，商店和咖啡馆都很近，由此可推知，作者住在这里生活很便利，这也是作者热爱这里的原因。故选B。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句“The councils efforts are not controlling tourism. Theyre only controlling accommodation(市议会的努力并没有制约旅游业。他们只是规范了旅客的食宿)”可知，作者认为这项法律没有解决根本问题没有减少巴塞罗那的旅游人数。故选D。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“If you want to v
