Skiddaw in Winter
Cumbria, England
It was an extremely cold winter's evening and freezing fog hung in the air. I climbed to the top of a small rise and realised that the mist was little more than a few feet deep, and though it was only a short climb, I found myself completely above it and looking at a wonderfully clear view of Skiddaw with the sum setting in the west. I used classical techniques, translated from my college days spent in the darkroom into Photoshop, to achieve the black—and—white image（图像）.
Timothy Smith(2014)

Cheshire, England
I was back in my home town of Macclesfield to take some winter images.

My Favourite Books
Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列)of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.
Matilda
Roald Dahl
I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words. Matilda's battles with her cruel me parents and the bossy headmisres，Miss Trunchbull，are equally fumy and frightening，but they're also aspirational.
After Dark
Haruki Murakami
It’s about two sisters-Eri，a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping，and Mari, a young student . In trying to connect to her sister. Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse ”night people” who are hiding secrets.
Gone Girl
Gillian Fynn
There was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did but the horror story is brilliant. There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It's a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what's going on is horribly enjoyable
The Stand
Stephen King
This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world's population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those let. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever.
21. Who does "I" refer to in the text?
A. Stephen King. B. Gillian Flynn.

C. A love story. D. A horror story.
【语篇解读】 这是一篇应用文。短文介绍了作家Jo Usmar最喜欢的书籍。
21.C
【解析】细节理解题。由Matilda中的“I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl’s writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words”可知，我曾经写过一篇关于童话故事对罗尔德·达尔写作有影响的论文，这篇论文让我对他奇怪而有趣的文字有了新的认识。所以Jo Usmar在介绍Matilda这本书，用第一人称“I”口吻来说明自己曾经写过一篇关于童话故事对罗尔德·达尔写作有影响的论文。所以“I”指的是Jo Usmar。故C选项正确。
22.C
【解析】细节理解题。由After Dark中的“It’s about two sister-Eri,a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping, and Mari,a young student”可知，故事讲的是两个姐妹---Eri是一个突然一觉不醒的模特。玛丽，是一个充满青春活力的学生。所以After Dark中讲述了Eri和Mari的故事。故C选项正确。
23.C

Children as young as ten are becoming dependent on social media for their sense of self-worth, a major study warned.
It found many youngsters(少年)now measure their status by how much public approval they
get online, often through “like”. Some change their behavior in real life to improve their image on the web.
The report into youngsters aged from 8 to 12 was carried out by Children's Commissioner (专
员)Anne Longfield. She said social media firms were exposing children to major emotional risks,
with some youngsters starting secondary school ill-equipped to cope with the tremendous pressure
they faced online.
Some social apps were popular among the children even though they supposedly require users to be at least 13.The youngsters admitted planning trips around potential photo-opportunities and then messaging friends—and friends of friends — to demand “likes” for their online posts.
The report found that youngsters felt their friendships could be at risk if they did not respond
to social media posts quickly, and around the clock.
Children aged 8 to 10 were "starting to feel happy" when others liked their posts. However,
those in the 10 to 12 age group were "concerned with how many people like their posts", suggesting a “need” for social recognition that gets stronger the older they become.
Miss Longfield warned that a generation of children risked growing up "worried about their
appearance and image as a result of the unrealistic lifestyles they follow on platforms, and
increasingly anxious about switching off due to the constant demands of social media.
She said: "Children are using social media with family and friends and to play games when
they are in primary school. But what starts as fun usage of apps turns into tremendous pressure in
real social media interaction at secondary school."
As their world expanded. she said, children compared themselves to others online in a way that was "hugely damaging in terms of their self-identity, in terms of their confidence, but also in terms of their ability to develop themselves".
Miss Longfield added: "Then there is this push to connect—if you go offline, will you miss
something, will you miss out, will you show that you don't care about those people you are
following, all of those come together in a huge way at once."
"For children it is very, very difficult to cope with emotionally." The Children's Commissioner for England's study—life in Likes—found that children as young as 8 were using social media platforms largely for play.
However, the research—involving eight groups of 32 children aged 8 to 12—suggested that as they headed toward their teens, they became increasingly anxious online.
By the time they started secondary school—at age 11—children were already far more aware of their image online and felt under huge pressure to ensure their posts were popular, the report found.
However, they still did not know how to cope with mean-spirited jokes, or the sense of
incompetence they might feel if they compared themselves to celebrities(名人)or more brilliant
friends online. The report said they also faced pressure to respond to messages at all hours of the
day—especially at secondary school when more youngsters have mobile phones.
The Children’s Commissioner said schools and parents must now do more to prepare children
for the emotional minefield(雷区)they faced online. And she said social media companies must
also "take more responsibility". They should either monitor their websites better so that children do not sign up too early, or they should adjust their websites to the needs of younger users.
Javed Khan, of children's charity Bamardo's, said: "It's vital that new compulsory age-
appropriate relationship and sex education lessons in England should help equip children to deal
with the growing demands of social media.
“It’s also hugely important for parents to know which apps their children are using.”
65.Why did some secondary school students feel too much pressure?
A. They were not provided with adequate equipment.
B. They were not well prepared for emotional risks.
C. They were required to give quick responses.
D. They were prevented from using mobile phones.
66. Some social app companies were to blame because .
A. they didn't adequately check their users' registration
B. they organized photo trips to attract more youngsters
C. they encouraged youngsters to post more photos
D. they didn't stop youngsters from staying up late
67. Children's comparing themselves to others online may lead to .
A. less friendliness to each other
B. lower self-identity and confidence
C. an increase in online cheating
D. a stronger desire to stay online
68. According to Life in Likes, as children grew, they became more anxious to .

C. use mobile phones for play
D. get more public approval
69. What should parents do to solve the problem?
A. Communicate more with secondary schools.
B. Urge media companies to create safer apps.
C. Keep track of children's use of social media.
D. Forbid their children from visiting the web.

【文章大意】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要就“点赞中的人生”的项目研究分析了社交媒体和中学生面临的压力二者之间的关系，以及社交媒体对孩子们带来的多重影响。 
65. B 细节理解题。根据第二段“…social media firms were exposing children to major emotional risks, with some youngsters starting secondary school ill-equipped to cope with the tremendous pressure they faced online.” 社交媒体公司让孩子们面临重大的情感风险，一些青少年在中学时就没有能力应对他们在网上面临的巨大压力可知，中学生还没有对情感风险做好充分的准备，所以他们感到压力巨大，故选B项。

C
Measles(麻疹), which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more, was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine(疫苗). But the disease is making a comeback, caused by a growing anti­vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly. Already this year, 115 measles cases have been reported in the USA, compared with 189 for all of last year.
The numbers might sound small, but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend. When vaccination rates are very high, as they still are in the nation as a whole, everyone is protected. This is called “herd immunity”， which protects the people who get hurt easily, including those who can't be vaccinated for medical reasons, babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn't work.
But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in. When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride, immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.
That's exactly what is happening in small neighbourhoods around the country from Orange County, California, where 22 measles cases were reported this month, to Brooklyn, NY, where a 17­year­old caused an outbreak last year.
The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades, and it is driven by a real but very small risk. Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.
Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out(决定不参加) of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten. Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption(豁免), sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.
Now, several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out. But no one does enough to limit exemptions.
Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons. But personal opinions? Not good enough. Everyone enjoys the life­saving benefits vaccines provide, but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.
63．The first two paragraphs suggest that ________．
A．a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trend
B．the outbreak of measles attracts the public attention
C．anti­vaccine movement has its medical reasons
D．information about measles spreads quickly
64．Herd immunity works well when ________．
A．exemptions are allowed
B．several vaccines are used together
C．the whole neighbourhood is involved in
D．new regulations are added to the state laws
65．What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?
A．The overuse of vaccine.
B．The lack of medical care.
C．The features of measles itself.
D．The vaccine opt­outs of some people.
66．What is the purpose of the passage?
A．To introduce the idea of exemption.
B．To discuss methods to cure measles.
C．To stress the importance of vaccination.
D．To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.
【文章大意】 文章讲述了曾经致命但几乎消失了的麻疹又回来了， 原因是少数人没有注射疫苗， 以致他们自己及其他人的健康受损， 作者借此呼吁人人都应该注射麻疹疫苗。
63．A　推理判断题。根据第二段中“…but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend.”可知少量的麻疹患者也会引起巨大的危险，故答案为A。
64．C　 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in.”可知只有整个群体都加入时免疫才会起作用，故 C选项正确。
65．D　细节理解题。根据第六段中“Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out…”可知法律使一些未按规定给孩子去注射疫苗的人太容易得到豁免，才使得麻疹再次回归，故答案为D。
66．C　写作意图题。根据最后一段中“Everyone enjoys the life­saving benefits vaccines provide, but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.”可以推断出本文的写作目的是强调接种疫苗的重要性，故C选项正确。
【名师点睛】
作者态度及写作意图推断
每一篇文章都会包含作者的某种观点和态度，只不过有的直截了当，有的含而不露，有的通过所用词语的褒贬来体现。此类题可细分为作者态度题(表明作者的好恶)和作者观点题(表明作者对某事物的看法)。准确把握作者的情感和态度，需要注意以下几点：
1.作者对某一事物的看法,要么支持,要么反对,带中立色彩的词最不可能是正确答案。
2.漠不关心类词语往往不对,既然写文章就不会不关心。
3.不要把自己的态度揉入其中,也要区分作者的态度和作者引用的别人的态度。
4.当作者的态度没有明确提出时,要学会根据作者使用词语的褒贬性来判断。
5.作者的观点一般与文章的主旨相关联。
6.绝对化或语气过于强烈的选项常常是错误的,如:strong, complete, entire等。
比如66题，本文主要是介绍了麻疹在历史上带来的危害，以及为什么会有这样的情况，最根本原因还是那些不注射疫苗的人导致的，故本文的目的是强调疫苗的作用，选C。学科&网
[2017·浙江卷6月考]
C
FLORENCE, Italy—Svetlana Cojochru feels hurt. The Moldovan has lived here seven years as a caregiver to Italian kids and the elderly, but in order to stay she's had to prove her language skills by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary friend and answer a fictional job ad.
Italy is the latest Western European country trying to control a growing immigrant (移民) population by demanding language skills in exchange for work permits, or in some cases, citizenship.
Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs, such measures will become more a vehicle for intolerance than integration (融合). Others say it's only natural that newcomers learn the language of their host nation, seeing it as a condition to ensure they can contribute to society.
Other European countries laid down a similar requirement for immigrants, and some terms are even tougher. The governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and promote understanding across cultures.
Italy, which has a much weaker tradition of immigration, has witnessed a sharp increase in immigration in recent years. In 1990, immigrants numbered some 1.14 million out of Italy's then 56.7 million people, or about 2 per cent. At the start of this year, foreigners living in Italy amounted to 4.56 million of a total population of 60.6 million, or 7.5 per cent, with immigrants' children accounting for an ever larger percentage of births in Italy.
Cojochru, the Moldovan caregiver, hoped obtaining permanent residence (居住权) would help her bring her two children to Italy; they live with her sister in Moldova, where salaries are among the lowest in Europe. She was skeptical that the language requirement would encourage integration.
Italians always “see me as a foreigner，” an outsider, even though she's stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently, she said.
28．Why does Cojochru have to take a language test?
A. To continue to stay in Italy.
B. To teach her children Italian.
C. To find a better job in Italy.
D. To better mix with the Italians.
29．Some people worry that the new language requirement may ________．
A. reduce Italy's population quickly
B. cause conflicts among people
C. lead to financial difficulties
D. put pressure on schools
30．What do we know about Cojochru?
A. She lives with her sister now in Italy.
B. She enjoys learning the Italian language.
C. She speaks Italian well enough for her job.
D. She wishes to go back to her home country.
【文章大意】 本文是一篇议论文，主要阐述了对意大利刚出台的针对日益增长的移民所采取的语言测试政策的不同看法。
28. A　细节理解题。根据文章第一段“…but in order to stay she's had to prove her language skills…”可以推断，Cojochru为了能够继续在意大利待下去，将不得不参加语言测试。为了留在意大利是她要参加语言测试的目的所在，所以答案选A项。

30. C　推理判断题。根据文章最后两段，特别是最后一段“…she's stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently…”可知，Cojochru已经在意大利居住多年，能流利地讲当地的方言，她在当地的交流和工作很顺利，故答案选C项。
【名师点睛】
本文【小题29】属于推理判断题，根据题干“Some people worry that the new language requirement may…”, 抓住关键词worry，可以从文中第三段第一句话进行推断：Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs, such measures will become a more vehicle for intolerance than integration. 根据关键信息intolerance可判断对语言的要求会造成外来居民和本地居民的不融合，即矛盾，从而选出正确答案。
推理判断题是历届考生失分较多的题型，因为此类题不仅要求考生理解具体事实细节，也要理解抽象含义，推理题的解题方法有：
1. 抓住特定的信息进行逆向或正向推理：善于抓住某一段话中的关键信息，即某些关键词或短语去分析，利用逆向思维或正向推理，从而推断出这句话所隐藏的深层含义。(29小题使用的就是这种方法)
2. 结合全文(段)进行推断：做推理题时，需要在弄懂全文意思的基础上，整合与题目相关的有用信息，综合起来进行推理判断，从而确定最佳结论。
3. 根据上下文的逻辑关系得出结论：逻辑结论是指严格根据文章中所陈述的事实，论点，例证等一系列论据材料进行推理，从而得出合乎逻辑的结论，所以要把握作者的写作思路，预测下文可能发展的内容。文章可按照事件发展的经过描写，也可按照因果关系，对比关系来描写。
4. 结合自己已有的知识进行推断：知识推断是根据文章中所阐述的细节，运用自己掌握的基础知识进行推敲，从而得出答案，这需要我们有一定的社会基础知识，以及对细节和有关背景知识的充分理解。

细节理解题的类型：
1、直接信息题
对此类题型，考生可以首先从问题中找到关键词，然后以此为线索，运用略读及查阅的技巧在文中迅速寻找这一细节，找到后再把这一部分内容仔细阅读一遍，仔细比较所给选项与文中细节的细微区别，在准确理解细节的前提下，最后确定最佳答案。60题就是可以直接在文中找到有关信息。
2、间接信息题
做这类题目时，考生需要对原文信息进行加工处理，然后再进行进一步的推理或鉴别，这是介于事实细节题和推理判断题之间的一种题型，对考生来说有一定难度。比如第61题就属于间接信息题，只需要根据题意推知中国属于Rest of World，故是£70，答案为D。
3、数字计算题
数字计算题也是近几年高考中常考的内容，此类试题是在文章中直接表现出来细节事实，有的要经过具体的计算才能够得出正确的答案。具体的计算题可以是对年代的计算、月份的计算或比例的计算等。文章中经常会出现许多数字，它们对解题产生一定的影响。解答此类试题的方法是先来理解文章的大意，然后经过对比、分析、计算等就能够得出正确的答案。
4、排列顺序题
这种试题要求考生根据事件发生的先后顺序和句子之间的逻辑关系，找出事件发生的正确顺序。做这种题时可采用“首尾定位法”，即最先找出第一个事件和最后一个事件，迅速缩小选择范围，从而快速选出正确答案。
5、图表图画题
在有图表图画的阅读理解中，有的图表图画出现在阅读理解文章中，有的出现在选项中，这些图片的出现增加了试题的直观性，同时也暗含着和文章内容相关的信息。在解答此类试题的时候，一定要把握图表图画中所暗含的信息，特别是有些事实是通过图片来叙述的，我们可以采用按图寻找正确答案的方法。

CHRONOLOGICA
—The Unbelievable Years that Defined History

DID YOU KNOW…
※ In 105 AD paper was invented in China?
※ When Columbus discovered the New World?
※ The British Museum opened in 1759?
CHRONOLOGICA is a fascinating journey through time，from the foundation of Rome to the creation of the Internet. Along the way are tales of kings and queens，hot air balloons…and monkeys in space.
Travel through 100 of the most unbelievable years in world history and learn why being a Roman Emperor wasn't always as good as it sounds，how the Hundred Years' War didn't actually last for 100 years and why Spencer Perceval holds a rather unfortunate record.
CHRONOLOGICA is an informative and entertaining tour into history，beautifully illustrated and full of unbelievable facts. While CHRONOLOGICA tells the stories of famous people in history such as Thomas Edison and Alexander the Great，this book also gives an account of the lives of lesser­known individuals including the explorer Mungo Park and sculptor Gutzon Borglum.
This complete but brief historical collection is certain to entertain readers young and old，and guaranteed to present even the biggest history lover with something new！
56.What is CHRONOLOGICA according to the text?
A．A biography.
B．A travel guide.
C．A history book.
D．A science fiction.
57．How does the writer recommend CHRONOLOGICA to readers?
A．By giving details of its collection.
B．By introducing some of its contents.
C．By telling stories at the beginning.
D．By comparing it with other books.
【文章大意】 本文是一篇广告应用文。文章主要介绍了历史书CHRONOLOGICA的内容、特点、合适的读者群体等。
56. C　推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“While CHRONOLOGICA tells the stories of famous people in history such as Thomas Edison and Alexander the Great, this book also gives an account of the lives of lesser­known individuals including the explorer Mungo Park and sculptor Gutzon Borglum.”可判断CHRONOLOGICA是本书。从文章副标题“The Unbelievable Years that Defined History”(那些难以置信的界定了历史的年份)和第三段第一句“CHRONOLOGICA is an informative and entertaining tour into history…”都可以看出这本书与历史有关，因此CHRONOLOGICA是一本历史书，故选C项。

【名师点睛】
推断文章出处是高考英语阅读中一个比较常见的考点。主要考查考生能否从内容特点、文体特点、语言风格等判断出所读文章的具体出处。比如，如果所读材料具有较强的时效性或新闻性，则可能出自新闻报道；如果所读材料侧重历史事实，且措辞严谨，则可能出自历史教科书；如果所读材料中涉及工作要求、工资待遇、联系电话等，则可能出自招聘广告；如果所读材料轻松、休闲，则可能出自旅游杂志或休闲杂志等。第56题属于这一类题目。根据文章中出现的历史事件不难推断出CHRONOLOGICA是一本历史书。

【名师点睛】
一般来说，解答细节理解题时都可采用“寻读法”。也就是说，考生不必通篇细看原文，而可以采取“带着问题找答案”的方法，先从问题中抓住关键性词语。这种关键性的词语可以被称为“定位词”，找出“定位词”然后以此为线索，快速地捕捉和理解事实或细节，恰当地运用略读、查读等技巧，在文章中寻找与此问题相关的段落、语句，仔细品味，对照比较，确定答案。
1. 应用文中的细节理解，特别是广告，是阅读理解题中常见的一种体裁。广告简洁明快，语言精练，篇幅小、信息多。广告阅读题多为细节理解题。做这类阅读题的技巧是：先读题目，带着问题有针对性地阅读相关部分快速寻找有效信息。一般情况下，只要细心都会找到正确答案。
2. 说明文中的细节理解与应用文一样，说明文中的阅读理解也偏重考查细节，我们也可以采用“先看题，然后带着问题在材料中寻找对应信息”的办法答题。
3. 记叙文中的细节以理解故事、人物描写等是阅读理解的考查重点之一。做这类题一般也可采用“寻读法”，即先读题，然后带着问题快速阅读短文，找出与问题相关的词语或句子，再对相关词语或句子进行分析对比，获取准确信息，找出正确答案。
例如第21题中根据题干中的关键词buy定位到Store，也就是第一段的内容。然后再结合后文中的The store is located(位于) upstairs in Building 3 right next to the Laster Dome.就可以得出正确答案。
能在文中直接找到信息句子的细节题比较简单，一般设置在第一篇阅读里以减轻考生的紧张心理。所以考生要抓住这一特点，灵活使用解题策略，达到快速高效的目的。

【名师点睛】
阅读理解中细节理解题的干扰项的设置手法体现在下列几个原则：
1．包含项原则
在答案选项分析中，假如对A选项的理解概括了对其它三项 (或其中某一项)的理解，那么我们就说选项A与其他三项是包含或概括关系，包含项A往往就是正确答案。如在“花”与“玫瑰”两选项中，正确答案肯定是“花”，花包含了玫瑰,因为玫瑰肯定是花，但花并不一定是玫瑰。
2．正反项原则
所谓正反项，是指两选项陈述的命题完全相矛盾。根据形式逻辑排中律知识：两个相互矛盾的判断不能都是假的，其中必有一真。所以在阅读理解中，假如四选项中A、B互为正反项，那我们通常先排除C、D项，正确答案一般在A、B项当中取其一。
3．委婉项原则
所谓委婉，这里是指说话不能说死，要留有余地。阅读理解选项中语气平和、委婉的往往是正确答案。这些选项一般含有不十分肯定或试探性语气的表达，如：probably, possibly,  may, usually, might, most of, more or less,relatively, be likely to, not necessary, although, yet, in addition，tend to，be liable to等等，而含有绝对语气的表达往往不是正确答案，如：must, always,
never, the most,all, every, any, merely, only, completely, none, hardly, already等等。
4．同形项原则
几个选项如存在形式与结构上的相似，那它们就互为同形项。同形项组可喻为高尔夫球场上的“果岭”，而正确答案就是果岭上的“球洞”。命题者往往先将正确答案设置在一个大命题范围，然后通过语言形式的细微变化来考察考生的理解能力与分析能力。同形项原则告诉我们：词汇与句法结构相似的选项一般存在有正确答案。
5．常识项原则
在议论文当中，那些符合一般常识，意义深刻富有哲理，符合一般规律，属于普遍现象的选项往往是正确答案。
6．因果项原则
阅读理解逻辑推理基本都是通过因果链进行的，前因后果，一步步循序渐进。然而，在推理题型的选项中，有的选项会推理不到位(止于前因)，或者推理过头(止于后果)，这就是所谓的干扰项。因果项原则规定：假如四个选项中有两项互为同一事物推理过程中的因果关系，那么正确答案就是这两个因果项中的其中之一。如果因项可以产生几个结果，那么答案就是因项；如果果项可以对应几个原因，那么答案就是果项。学科&网

【名师点睛】阅读中的细节理解可以细化为：(1)一一对应型。答案与题目在表达形式和意义上直接吻合，一一对应，一目了然。属于浅层次的阅读试题，分数比例较少。(2)语言转述型。这是一类间接事实细节题，答案与题目在意义上从分运用了词义之间的转述关系，即正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的另类表达。属于中档难度题，分数比例较大。(3)语意理解型。这是一类深层事实细节理解题，答案与题目之间存在着一定的逻辑联系，这种联系需要建立在事实的基础上通过上、下文来进行判断、分析、归纳和整合，才能得出正确答案。属于较高难度的事实细节题。(4)是非辨别型。这是一类综合事实细节题，出题形式常常是“三正一误”(三项正确，只有一项不符合原文内容)或“三误一正”(三项错误，只有一项符合原文内容)。(5)事实排序型。这是一类运用多项事实进行排序的事实细节题，要求根据动作发生的先后顺序、时间顺序或者句子之间的逻辑关系，找出时间发生，发展的正确顺序。
细节理解题主要的答题策略有：
(1)细心审题，直接就题找答案。解答此类试题时，不必通篇细看原文，而应采取“带着问题找答案”的方法，先从问题中抓住关键性词语(题眼)，然后以此为线索，运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的：段落、语句，仔细品味，对照比较，确定答案。本题中的48小题就是一一对应型，解题时不需要通读全文，带着48题题干的关键词in 2015找到文章中的相应内容2015(90)，即可找到正确答案B。(2)多点归纳，综合事实找答案。细节理解题有时考查的并不是单一的信息，而是多处信息的整合。解答此类“综合”信息细节题时，一定要全面捕捉相关信息，进行综合分析、归纳，切忌根据“一面之词”草率地作出结论。本题中的47题，首先根据题干的mental images定位到they interact with the sensory world, looking at colours, feelings textures, constructing mental and physical images of what they see and experience.这句话，再追溯到这本书的名字Young Children as Artists可以得出答案D。学&科网

在完成广告类阅读时，我们可以使用题干定向法和排除法解题。
1.题干定向法： 如果题干的问题与原文中的相应句段基本相同，则可直接对号入座；如果题干的问题与原文中的相应句段有较大出入，则要进行一定的处理，这个“ 处理”是多方面的，它可能包括对原文进行同义变换、对概念进行解析、对事实进行归纳、将具体问题抽象化或将抽象问题具体化、将文中提到的原则或规则进行实际运用等等。 
以【小题56】为例根据题干内容，定位于Benefits of e-Learning部分Access to courses that may not be available at his or her TDSB school可知E-Learning中的一些课程是TDSB课程的一些有益的补充。
2.错误排除法：一般说来，对于那些与文意明显不符或与文章内容不相关的选项比较容易排除， 但有些选项与文章内容相符，却与题干问题不吻合，即属答非所问的情形，也应作为错误项予以排除，尤其是那些从文章中摘录的句子，要特别小心，它们很有可能是干扰项。除了验证其是否能回答所提问题外，还要看它是否回答了问题的主要方面， 也就是说看它是不是最佳答案， 如果它只能回答所提问题的一个侧面或还有比它更合适的选项，都要毫不犹豫地将其排除。

There are many places to go on safari(观赏野生动物)in Africa, but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys.
Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure, providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta. The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.
The morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly exciting. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.
In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.
Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine. Looking back on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.
48. What does the underlined word "They" refer to?
A. Flooded waters B. Wildlife journey
C. Safari camps D. Unique rides
49. What does the author find most exciting about a horse safari?
A. Seeing and feeling the real African life.
B. Enjoying good food and wine at the camp.
C. Hunting large animals just as our ancestors did.
D. Being part of the scene and getting close to animals.
50. What does the underlined word "sedate" probably mean?
A. Wild and romantic B. Slow and peaceful
C. Hurry and thirsty D. Active and excited
51. The author introduced the riding experience in the OKavango Delta mainly by________.
A. Following space order B. Following time order
C. Making classifications D. Giving examples
【解析】
试题分析: 本文说明文，介绍了非洲观赏野生动物的野营的项目。
48.C 词意猜测。根据第二段提到几个Safari的野营有优秀的马匹，专业的指导和许多人服务工作，故可知这些野营的声望是很好的，故选C项。
49.D 细节理解题。根据第三段提到The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though,as does your rate,as you move closer to them骑马的紧张与兴奋让人心跳加速，与他们更亲近，故选D项。
50.B 房间猜测。根据第四段第一句话可知在晚上骑马很放松，惬意，也是令人印象深刻的，故选B项。

11.【2015·上海】B



The Curse of the Were-Rabbit(2005) is the first full-length feature film made by directors Nick Park and Steve Box with their amazing plasticine(粘土) characters Wallace and Gromit. It won an Oscar in 2006, and if you watch it, you’ll understand why. It’s an absolutely brilliant cartoon comedy.
Cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his brainy dog Gromit have started a company to protect the town’s vegetables from hungry rabbits. However, just before the annual Giant Vegetable Competition, an enormous rabbit begins terrorising the town. It is attacking all the vegetables and destroying everything in its path. The competition organizer, Lady Tottington, hires Wallace and Gromit to catch the monster alive. But they will have to find the were-rabbit before gun-crazy hunter Victor Quartermaine who is desperate to kill it.
The screenplay is witty and full of amusing visual jokes. As usual, the voice of Peter Sallis is absolutely perfect for the role of Wallace, and Gromit is so beautifully brought to life, he can express a huge range of emotions without saying a word. And both Helena Bonham-Carter, who plays the part of Lady Tottington, and Ralph Fiennes as Victor are really funny.
To sum up, The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is an amazing film which is suitable for both children and adults. If you liked Wallace and Gromit’s previous adventures and you appreciate the British sense of humour, you’ll love this film. Don’t miss it!

70. In the film review, what is paragraph A mainly about?
A. The introduction to the leading roles B. The writer’s opinion of acting
C. The writer’s comments on the story D. The background information
71. According to the film review, “monster” (paragraph B) refers to ______.
A. a gun-crazy hunter B. a brainy dog
C. a scary rabbit D. a giant vegetable
72. Which of the following is a reason why the writer recommends the film?
A. It’s full of wit and humour.
B. Its characters show feelings without words.
C. It is an adventure film directed by Peter Sallis.
D. It is about the harmony between man and animals.
【答案】
70 D
71. C
72. A
【解析】
试题分析：这是说明文，是一篇电影评论，有关一部卡通电影。

71. C 猜词题 4个选项文章中都有提到，既然说是指代，那么不妨把4个选项都带了进去理解，那么不难发现答案就是C。同时也要关注一些连词的表达，比如however 和but。根据最后一句话的描述，可以排除hunter选项；dog是进行寻找的动物，不是被找的动物；根据monster 后的alive活抓可以排除vegetable选项。
72. A细节题 根据C部分的第一句话“the screenplay is witty and full of amusing visual jokes剧本是聪明而充满魅力的视觉的笑话”以及D部分的最后一句话“you appreciate the British sense of humour, you’ll love this film .Don’t miss it! 你喜欢英国的幽默感,你会喜欢这部电影的。不要错过它!” 这两点都反映出了一个东西，就是幽默和智慧，所以答案为A。
【考点定位】 说明文

【2014·浙江卷】B
Here is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some countries.
In Brazil
Brazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses. Schedules tend to be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned. But to be safe, be on time. Meals can stretch for hours—there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil. Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon. Brazilians are social, preferring face-to-face communication over mails or phone calls.
In Singapore
Singaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Business cards should be offered and received with two hands. Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency(效率) is the goal, so meetings and dealings often are fast-paced. Singaporeans are direct in their discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank is important and authority is respected. This determines both people interact in meetings. For example, people avoid disagreeing outright with someone with a higher rank.
In the United Arab Emirates
In the UAE, status is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles. The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere. So, do not pull away the handshake. Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress. Men also tend to be covered from neck to elbows(肘部) and down to the knees. People do not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also hold business meals at restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided. When meetings are one-to-one, if your host offers you coffee, you should refuse. It might seem odd, but it is a cultural tradition. Coffee should only be accepted if it is always set out or presented.
In Switzerland
The Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are respectful of private lives. You should be careful not to ask about personal topics. Punctuality (守时) is vital, something that comes from a deep respect for others’ time. Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe. They also have clear structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the final decisions, even if others might disagree. Neat, clean dress is expected. The Swiss follow formal table manners. They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table. It is polite to finish the food on your plate.
【小题1】 The passage is mainly about ________.
   A. communication types                       B. the workplace atmosphere
   C. customs and social manners                 D. living conditions and standards
【小题2】 Why do Singaporeans avoid arguing with their boss?
   A. They put efficiency in the first place.
   B. They dislike face-to-face communication.
   C. They want to finish meetings as quickly as possible.
   D. They are supposed to obey the person of a higher rank.
【小题3】 In the UAE, when should you refuse the coffee if it is offered?
   A. When greeting seniors.                     B. When meeting the host alone.
   C. When attending a presentation.               D.When dining with business partners.
【小题4】. In which country do people care about where to put their hands at the dinner table?

BLOOD DRIVE ＆ MARROW(骨髓)REGISTRATION
“These patients deserve a chance at a normal, happy future and they rely on the kindness of the strangers to make that happen.
— Daisy, Isabelle’s Mother
Isabelle is the daughter of Daisy and Saman Mirzaei. In January 2008 Isabelle was diagnosed(诊断)with a genetic blood disorder，beta thalassemia. Isabelle’s body
is unable to produce healthy red blood cells. As a result, Isabelle has been receiving blood transfusions (输血) every 4-6weeks since she was 11 months old. A lifetime of regular transfusions can lead to serious medical problems. Her only chance at a normal, healthy life is to have a marrow transplant. Isabelle is an only child, so doctors have started a search for an unrelated marrow donor through The Match Registry. The Mirzaei family asks that you consider helping patients like Isabelle by registering to be a marrow donor and give the gift of life, the gift of blood.

Which boy hasn’t dreamed of being a cool secret agent (特工)? The wonderful fighting abilities and the world-saving adventures are much more colourful than most people’s everyday lives. Well, Cody Banks is just like any other boy，except that he is not just dreaming. He has a big secret his friends never know about. He was trained to be a spy (间谍)by a special CIA programme，which was made to look like a summer camp. He learned high-speed driving，hand-to-hand fighting and the use of high-tech tools.
After proving he could become a young hero by saving a baby from a runaway car，Banks gets his first real task. He must make friends with a popular girl at school，Natalie Connors. Then，he must spy on her father，a scientist who has developed a dangerous technology (技术).Banks must stop a group of bad people from forcing Natalie’s father into using the technology to endanger the world.
The CIA may have taught him first-class self-defence moves，but they didn’t show him how to talk to girls. Banks has zero ability when it comes to dealing with girls. How can he get around his problem and get an invitation to the girl’s upcoming birthday party? Will he finally become Natalie’s boyfriend and find out whatever he can about her father’s work?

Never before had a kitchen
so much of a history

It tells of Freedom, Success, and of the Architecture of big American cities. Because that is where it started: in the second half of the 19th century!
Welcome to a new Era of Kitchen Interior Design
Back then, a Generation of successful American Entrepreneurs dreamt of a new style of Architecture to express their personal wealth. This dream was realized by young architects such as Daniel Burnham and Stanford White. They all had studied at the E＇cole des Beaux­Arts in Paris. And they created a new style for Architecture and Interior Design, named after the famous French Art Institute: Beaux­Arts.
SieMatic Beaux­Arts breaks and creates
In fact it was not a new style at all, but a composition of styles from different periods and cultures. Many world­famous structures such as the Chicago Art Institute and the Statue of Liberty account for it. But what does that have to do with your kitchen? Just as much as you want it to. Because in the same way that the anti­conventional architects back then took the freedom to combine elements from different historical eras, today, you too can break the conventional rules of style and create something new: your own personal composition of your kitchen. For that, SieMatic Beaux­Arts offers unique opportunities: A broad range of seemingly conflicting features that you combine to a harmonious design of your own. You can choose from menu of various forms, appealing colours, and precious materials, to create an environment that is much more than just a kitchen: a reflection of your personality.
【小题1】Why did the BeauxArts style attract American entrepreneurs?
A. It helped display their money status. B. It was created by famous architects.
C. It was named after a famous institute. D. It represented the 19th century urban culture.
【小题2】What is unique of SieMatic BeauxArts?
A. Its designs are anti-conventional.
B. Its designs come from famous structures.
C. Its customers can enjoy their own composition.
D. Its customers can choose from various new styles.

There have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths:
I’ll never lose weight --- I come from a fat family
Wrong! While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercise too little.
I am fat because I burn calories slowly
Wrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢). If fact, although fat people consume more energy that slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.
Exercise is boring
Wrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do Yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself a distance or time challenge.
No pain, no gain
Wrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If you don’t, rest and seek medical advice.
【小题1】. What does the author think about being fat?
A. It is the family genes that make people fat.
B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.
C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.
D. It is the consequence of people’s unbalanced lifestyle.
【小题2】. According to the author, how can we make exercise more interesting?
A. By taking varied exercise. B. By choosing simple exercise.
C. By doing regular exercise. D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.
【小题3】. What is the author’s opinion about “No pain, no gain” in exercising?
A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.
B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.
C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.
D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.
【小题4】. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To declare the importance of keeping fit.
B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.
C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.
D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.

试题分析：
本文旨在澄清人们关于肥胖和运动的几个认识上的误区。作者告诉我们：肥胖与遗传无关；肥胖不是因为新陈代谢缓慢；运动可以是有趣的；运动不以疼痛为代价。
