Part 1 Reading Comprehension
第一部分 閱讀理解
Passage 1
1. D. New York City will soon end a ban on cell phones in schools. 考查文章大意。
文章第一段提到…to end a controversial, citywide cell-phone ban in public schools, 同時(shí)提到the city is preparing to end the ban, 由此可知答案為D紐約將終止學(xué)校的手機(jī)禁令。
2. A. a dollar考查文章細(xì)節(jié)。文章第四段提到Workers in vans that resemble food trucks store teens' cell phone and other devices for a dollar a day. 由此可知答案為A 一美元。
3. B. weapons考查文章細(xì)節(jié)。文章第三段The detectors were installed to keep weapons out of schools. 由此可知答案為B武器。
4. D. unfair詞意推測(cè)題。由uneven和后面it puts a disadvantage on students who can't afford to pay to store their phones可以推斷該詞意思是不公平的。
5. D. A phone-storage industry has appeared outside the 88 metal-detector campuses. 正誤判斷題。由文章最后一句話判斷A錯(cuò)誤,根據(jù)文章首句not equally enforced判斷B錯(cuò)誤,文章第四段首句判斷C錯(cuò)誤,第四段第二句判斷D正確。
Passage 2
6. C.when she was very young考查文章細(xì)節(jié)。文章第一段When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father可判斷答案為C。
7. B. Maggie was once a slave. 正誤判斷題。文章中提到Her mother was once a slave并不是說Maggie was once a slave.
8. A. Maggie loved to help other African Americans. 正誤判斷題。文章只是說Maggie got a job as a teacher. 并沒有提到她在學(xué)校老師中很受歡迎,故B錯(cuò)誤;文章第二段提到She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St. Luke. 因此Maggie只是志愿幫助該組織,并不是該組織的創(chuàng)始人,故C錯(cuò)誤;文章第三段最后一句可判斷D錯(cuò)誤。由文章第二段最后兩句可以判斷A正確。
9. D.poor詞意推測(cè)題。文章第一段指出Maggie的母親曾經(jīng)是一名奴隸,她年幼喪父,家中impoverished,所以她的母親只好給有錢人洗衣服,由此可推斷impoverished應(yīng)該是貧窮的意思,即poor。
10. B. next project推斷題。文章最后一句提到Now Walker was ready for her next big step. 因此可推斷下文將要討論Maggie's big step即B。
Passage 3
11. A.is from Brazil文章首段提到The study followed more than 3000 babies into adulthood in Brazil第二段提到Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil因此可判斷Horta is from Brazil. B應(yīng)該是conducts his research in Brazil. 文章并沒有提到Horta的研究團(tuán)隊(duì)有多少人,故C錯(cuò)誤。D文章也沒有提及。
12. A.They stayed longer in school. 文章倒數(shù)第二段說明C正確,最后一段說明A、D正確。
13. C.Horta’s research project lasted about 30 years. 文章倒數(shù)第二段So Horta analyzed data collected…since birth. They are now in their 30s. 由此可判斷C正確。
14. D. pllluted詞意推測(cè)題。文章第三段提到a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed. 由此可知是這些國(guó)家水被污染,因此喝奶粉長(zhǎng)大的孩子比母乳喂養(yǎng)的孩子在6個(gè)月之前更容易夭折。
15. C.Breast-feeding Improves Chances of Success文章首段首句即交代文章主旨大意。
