5、thathisgrandmawasgoingtotellhimthetimethathisgrandmawasgoingtobuyhimawatch參考答案：1B2C3A4B5C講解：1第一句介紹杰克今年20歲,2年前中學畢業，故選Bo2結合前后文意，前面講他吃完飯就去睡覺，并且很快就睡著了，文章最后介紹他用腳跺樓，發出聲音，奶奶阻止他，說明他奶奶怕吵，綜合判斷選Co3.由第二段倒數第二句判斷。4根據文意，他奶奶住他樓下，倒數第二句又講他用腳在地板上發出“Bang.”的聲音，故應是用腳跺樓。5因他表壞了，Mary又沒帶，他們想知道時間閱讀理解2Weareallbusytalkingabouta

10、eopledidnthaveenoughsoftwaretogeton-lineconvenientlyuntiltheearly1990s.參考答案：1F2T3F4T年。講解：1第二段開頭講互聯網是在60年代建立的，故至今歷史已超過302文中第二段闡明計算機網絡工作狀況不好(didntworkwell)。3第三段中說明大學、醫院等都被允許使用電腦，然而，計算機仍然很貴，并且網絡很難使用。4由第三段最后幾句介紹可知，到90年代，計算機便宜且好用。科學家也發展了軟件使網上瀏覽更方便。而本題干用了not.until句型，譯為“直到90年代早期人們才有足夠的軟件上網”。閱讀理解3Mr.andMrs.

16、annexttoMrs.Turnerwantedtoshowoffherson,too參考答案：1D2A3C4B5C講解：1因為牛津大學是英國的著名大學。第一段最后一句講“這使他們高興”。“It”指代前一句講的情況，即他們的兒子功課很好。3根據第三段文意判斷。4第三段最后一句講“所有人都開始聽她講。”故A不對；她這樣做只是想炫耀一下而已。C、D描述的意思都不確切。5文章前面做了鋪墊，講MrsTurner如何炫耀她兒子考上大學，結尾講那個婦女說自己的兒子是教授不論真假，她是在阻止Mrs.Turner的炫耀。閱讀理解4“Cool”isawordwithmanymeanings.Itsoldmean

21、,thewritersuggests（暗示）thattheword“cool”canbeusedinsteadofmanywordsusuallymeanssomethinginterestingcanmakeyourlifecolourfulmaynotbeascoolasitseems參考答案：1C2B3A4C5D講解：1見首句。由“express”前后詞義關系可推斷出是“表達”的意思，與“show”同義。3由第二段首句可知。由例子中的學生用cool一詞概括出他的所有感受，知cool詞義的擴大會導致語言中詞匯的缺乏，是令人擔憂的。結合第4題的答案可做出選擇。參考答案：1.A2.D3.A4.

22、D5.C講解：由短文最后一句“Theyhadtravelled1,797kilometresfromLondon”可知，最接近“fornearly1,800kilometres”，因此選A。由短文第2段倒數第3句“Sotheywereabletochangeitsweight可知答案為Do從第3段可以看出，越往上溫度越低，因此應選Ao由短文最后一段倒數第2句“TheycamedowninPoland.”可知答案為Do縱觀全文可以看出答案C不正確。閱讀理解6Ifyoudonotuseyourarmsoryourlegsforsometime,theybecomeweak;whenyoustart

31、隕石使它來回動，故答案選Bo由短文第4段“About3,500meteoritesmayfalloneartheveryyear,butonlyveryfewarefound.”一句可推斷，答案選Co由短文最后一段第1句4MrPettiferisglad”可以看出，且happy與glad意思相近，故答案應選Ao閱讀理解8OneofthethingsIalwaysbelieveisthatnomatterhowbadsomethingis,youcantakesomethingpositiveoutofit.TheonetimeIwasntsureofthatwasonSeptember11.I

45、，故答案為A。從文中孩子們建議用錢買玩具或帶自己的玩具去醫院，而“MrsWeekssaid,butmineisdifferent.”到有人提議“makesometoys”時她微笑，可判斷答案為C。縱觀整個新聞內容可知沒有足夠的玩具供生病的孩子們玩，故答案為C。由文中說醫生“askformoneyforchildrenstoys，得知玩具不夠，因此本題答案選C。從文章中可以看出MrsWeeks的本意就是教學生學會關心愛護別人，故答案D是正確的。閱讀理解10Oncetherelivedanoldmaninatown.Healwaysforgotalotofthings.Sohiswifealway
