【解析】【分析】文章大意：纽约比加州早3个小时，但它不会让加州变慢，也不会让纽约跑得快。他们都是在属于自己的“时区”工作。有人在25岁时成为CEO，50岁去世，而有人在50岁时成为CEO，活到90岁。在这个世界上，每个人都是根据自己的时区工作的，人们只能按照自己的步调来做事。所以不要羡慕你周围的人们，也不要嘲笑他们，他们在自己的时区，而你在你的时区。生活就是等待合适的时机去行动，坚持、坚强，忠于自己，在你自己的时区里战斗。

（1）推理计算题。根据New York is 3 hours ahead of California,纽约比加州早3个小时，可知当纽约是8点时加州应是8—3=5，所以加州应是5点，故答案选B。

（2）推理判断题。A根据Someone is still single, while someone else got married and waited 10 years having a child. There is another who had a baby within a year of marriage.可知文中说了有些人单身有些人结婚，有些人等10年才有孩子，而有些人结婚一年就有了孩子，但并没有提到说我们应该早点结婚，故A选项错误。B根据Life is about waiting for the right moment to act. Hold on, be strong, and stay true to yourself .Fight in your time zone.可知，生活就是等待合适的时机去行动，坚持、坚强，忠于自己，在你自己的时区里战斗，所以并不是说你落后了，就不必努力了，故B选项错误。C根据Obama retires(退休) at 55, but Trump starts at 70.可知，奥巴马在55岁退休，但特朗普在70岁才开始，所以说奥巴马比特朗普年轻就开始了他的总统职位是正确的，故B选项正确。D根据Life is about waiting for the right moment to act. Hold on,可知，生活就是等待合适的时机去行动，而不是等待正确的时区，故D选项错误。本题问哪一个选项是正确的，故答案选C。

（3）词义猜测题。根据上文People around you might seem to go ahead of you; some might seem to be behind you.你周围的人可能会走在你前面，有些人可能会落在你的后面，以及Don't envy them or laugh at them.不要…他们或者嘲笑他们，可知此处是与上文对应的，对于落后你的人不要嘲笑他们，那么对于走在你前面的人也应该是不要“羡慕、嫉妒”他们，故答案选C。

（4）细节理解题。根据Life is about waiting for the right moment to act. Hold on, be strong, and stay true to yourself .Fight in your time zone. 生活就是等待合适的时机去行动，坚持、坚强，忠于自己，在你自己的时区里战斗，可知，如果你现在学习不好，你应该努力工作，等待合适的时机，故答案选D。

（5）标题归纳题。通过对整篇文章的理解可知，每个人都是根据自己的时区工作的，人们只能按照自己的步调来做事。所以不要羡慕你周围的人们，也不要嘲笑他们，他们在自己的时区，而你在你的时区。所以生活就是等待合适的时机去行动，坚持、坚强，忠于自己，在你自己的时区里战斗。故答案选C。

【点评】阅读考题中细节理解题和猜测词义题属于客观题；主旨大意题和推理判断题属于主观题。针对不同类型的题目，要有不同的解决策略。对于客观题，阅读时关注文章的细节，如时间，地点或一些具体数字，在选择答案时，务必从原文中找到确切的依据。对于主观题，不仅要弄懂文章字面的意思，更重要的是要知道文章潜在的含义，和作者所给的提示。同时要对文章的含义和作者的暗示作合理的猜测和推论。

3．阅读理解

    That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.

    As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.

    About a block from my apartment (公寓房间), I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining street-light. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the street.

    Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired any more, and I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the street anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.

    Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the street next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes.

    "Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.

    It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.

（1）How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?

A. Cold and sick.                                                   B. Fortunate and helpful.

C. Disappointed and helpless.                             D. Satisfied and cheerful.

（2）From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy _________.

A. solving her problem at the bank                     B. preparing for the first night show

C. learning acting in an evening school              D. taking part in various city activities

（3）On her way home the writer __________.

A. lost her wallet unknowingly                            B. was stopped by a garbage truck driver

C. was robbed of her wallet by an armed man          D. found some homeless people following her

（4）In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?

A. Someone offered to take her back home.          B. A red-haired man came to see her.

C. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.          D. She heard someone call her name.

（5）From the text, we can infer that the writer _________.

A. would stop working at night                           B. would give up her job at the bank

C. would stay on in San Francisco                       D. would make friends with cleaners

【答案】（1）C

（2）B

（3）A

（4）D

（5）C

【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者在忙碌的工作之后感觉十分的失望无奈，只是在她回家的路上她的钱包在不知不觉中丢了，她在回去找钱包的路上遇到了归还钱包的清洁工，这份善良唤回了她对城市的信心。

(1)推理判断题。根据文章第一段"I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco．City life had become too much for me"我想过放弃表演和旧金山，城市生活对我来说真是变化太大了，可推测此时的作者是失望和无奈的；故选C。

38．细节理解题。根据文章第五段"Alisa Camacho？"I thought I was dreaming．How could this man know my name"可知作者觉得在做梦因为她听到了有人在喊她的名字；故选D。

(4)推理判断题。根据文章最后一段"I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other"可知作者改变了对城市的态度，不再那么失望了，因此她很可能会留在旧金山；故选C。

【点评】做题时不必拘泥于书中所呈现的语篇顺序，应遵循先易后难的原则。如可先做细节题再做推断题，因为细节题大多能直接从文中找到答案，而推断题则需对短文进行深层理解，再作判断。

4．阅读理解

    Have you ever wanted to achieve a goal and ended up doing lots of research on how to achieve it? As you learned more and more. It seemed you knew less and less. That is because when you learned a new concept(概念). You found that there was a lot more to know about it.

    Usually, people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea. There is nothing wrong with learning a lot, but when you let learning get in the way of doing, you will never get going.

    One of the best ways to learn is to take action and learn from the results that you get from those actions. Don't be afraid of not being perfect and just take the first step. You will go further than those who are still in preparation. It's good to be prepared, but over-preparation in trying to reach a goal won't get you results. The knowledge and skills that you will need will be picked up along the way.

    If a baby wants to learn how to walk, it doesn't do it by just sitting there and thinking about how to walk. The best way for a baby to walk is to actually get up and start walking. Sure it may fall, but with every fall, it learns what is working and what is not and adjusts(调整)to it. By doing this over and over, it will finally learn to walk. This is the method you should use when you want to achieve your goals as well. It works.

    Learning more is great but if all you're doing is learning and not taking action, it's time to change that. Just take the first step.

（1）When you learned something new, you found there was         to know about it.

A. less                               B. nothing                               C. everything                               D. more

A. People need to learn a lot before trying a new idea.

B. One of the best ways to learn is to take action.

C. Learning has nothing to do with doing.

（3）A baby should         when it wants to learn how to walk.

A. get up and start walking

B. sit there and think about how to walk

C. learn from its parents

D. read books about how to walk

（4）We can usually read the passage in        .

A. a storybook               B. a newspaper               C. an advertisement               D. a guidebook

6．阅读下面短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

    A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.

    Venice is in the north-east of Italy. It wasn't built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.

    Even so, travel isn't difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get around. There are 177 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery and the cool summer night while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along.

    Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped from a war over 1, 500 years ago, and built homes there.

    Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences. One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge, and there's nothing special but when they come back to the bridge an hour later, it's underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.

    Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimetres. Another problem is the rising seawater. The temperature has risen over the years. This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean (北冰洋) melt (融化).

    Every year, high waters hit the city in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater.

    Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower. The Italian government has asked some of Italy's biggest companies to build the MOST project, which was planned to be built under the seawater to stop the rising water. Anyway, this project is helping solve the problem.

（1）According to the passage, Venice is ________ of Italy.

A. in the north-east              B. in the west              C. in the south-west              D. in the south

（3）Venice ________ small islands in saltwater lakes more than 1, 500 years ago.

A. changed into                   B. turned into                   C. became                   D. developed from

（4）Which is NOT the reason why the city gets lower and lower?

A. The higher temperature.

B. Overused underground water.

C. Too many waterways.

D. The rising seawater.

（5）The passage is mainly about ________ of Venice.

8．根据短文内容，判断正误。

    I was 15 months old, a happy and carefree kid, until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I landed on a piece of glass that cut my eye badly. From then on, my injured, sightless, cloudy gray eye lived on with me.

    Sometimes people asked me embarrassing (使人难堪的) questions. Whenever kids played games, I was the "monster". I was always imagining that everyone looked down on(瞧不起) me. Yet mum would say to me, "Hold your head up high and face the world." I began to depend on that saying. As a child, I thought mum meant, "Be careful，or you will fall down or bump into something because you are not looking. "As a teenager, I usually looked down to hide my shame. But I found that when I held my head up high, people liked me.

    In high school, I even became the class president, but inside I still felt like a monster. All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mum and she would look at me with loving eyes and say," Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the beauty that is inside instead of your appearance(外貌) ."

    My mum's love was the sunshine that made me bright. I had faced hard times, and learned not only to be confident(自信的) but also to have deep compassion(同情) for others. "Hold your head up high "has been heard many times in my home. I say it to my children. The gift my mum gave me will live on.

9．根据短文理解选择正确答案。

C

      If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person.

      A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations. They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo (舒缓的节拍).

      “Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve (神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added.

      The volunteers said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.

      Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart's violin pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.

10．阅读理解

    Everybody hates rats. But rats may soon be man's new good friends. What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can't get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.

    How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat's brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat's brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.

    Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Robots' noses don't work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that. Rats can also see in the dark, they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don't need electricity!

    The "rat project" is not finished. But a scientist says, "It would be great. A rat could get into any place we couldn't get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe." Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).

（1）Where do you think you can find this passage?

A. In a magazine about toys.                               B. In a history book.

（2）Which of the following is NOT TRUE?

A. Rats don't need electricity.                 B. Rats are better than robots when smelling.

C. Rats are as clever as radios.                D. Rats can see things in the dark when doing rescues.

（3）Why does the "rat project" sound great according to the passage?

A. Because rats can get into very small spaces.  B. Because rats have better noses than dogs.

C. Because rats don't like robots.                        D. Because rats are brave.

（4）Which is the best title of this passage?

A. Ways of saving people                B. Rats                C. Earthquakes                D. Rats for rescue

【答案】 （1）C

（2）C
