Lockedupduringthedaytime,they’dbebroughtoutintheearlyeveningforphotoopportunitieswithholidaymakers.(上一次是在摩洛哥，當時我正在調查他們在市場上用來吸引人的獼猴。這些可憐的猴子被關在惡劣的環境中，受到身體虐待。它們白天被關起來，傍晚時分被帶出來和度假者合影)”可知，摩洛哥的獼猴白天被關在籠子里，晚上被用于拍照，所以D項“Theywerecagedinthedayandusedforphotosintheevening.(白天把它們關在籠子里，晚上用來拍照)”是正確表述。故選D項。【37題詳析】細節理解題。根據第一段中“Whilethelastgovernmentwenttothetroubleofpassingthisact,itfailedtosetoutalistofactivitiesbannedunderit.Thatmeansthousandsofholidaymakerscancontinuetobuyticketstoattractionsthattreatanimalscruellythissummer.(雖然上屆政府費心通過了這項法案，但它沒有列出根據該法案禁止的活動清單。這意味著成千上萬的度假者今年夏天可以繼續購買那些殘忍對待動物的景點的門票)”可知，作者認為當前反虐待動物的法律無效是因為它缺乏明確的禁止行為清單。故選A項。【38題詳析】細節理解題。根據第一段中“Itseemslikelythatanimalexploitationisincreasingwiththeriseofselfieculture(隨著自拍文化的興起，動物被剝削的現象似乎在增加)”可知，作者認為自拍文化導致了動物被剝削現象的增加。故選B項。【39題詳析】推理判斷題。根據第一段中“Overdecadesoftravelling,Ihavecomeacrosssomeshockingtreatmentofanimalsclearlybeingexploitedforourentertainment.(在幾十年的旅行中，我遇到了一些令人震驚的動物待遇，它們顯然是為了供我們娛樂而被剝削)”、第二段中“Buttherearesomesimpleyetpowerfulthingswecanalldotohelpshutdownthesecrueltrades.(但我們都可以做一些簡單而有力的事情來幫助取締這些殘忍的交易)”和最后一段中“It’stimetodobetterandmakesurewechoosewellwhenitcomestosatisfyingourinbornurgetoexperiencetheanimalsweshareourplanetwith.(是時候做得更好了，當涉及到滿足我們天生的渴望去體驗與我們共享地球的動物時，確保我們做出正確的選擇)”可知，文章先揭露了旅游業中動物被虐待的現象，然后呼吁人們采取行動。所以文章的主要目的是揭露旅游業中的動物虐待現象并呼吁采取行動。故選B項。(B)Inrecentyears,professionalorganizationsintheforeignlanguagefieldhavecollaboratedtosetprofessionalgoals,establishpolicies,andprovidevaluablesupport.Hereisalistofkeymembershiporganizations.Formoreinformationandupdates,youcanvisitthelinkstotheseorganizations’sitesontheTeacher’sHandbookwebsite.MLA:Foundedin1883,theModernLanguageAssociation(MLA)promotesthestudyandteachingoflanguagesandliteraturesandoffersopportunitiesforitsmemberstosharetheirscholarlyliteraryfindingsandteachingexperienceswithcolleagues.Composedofnearly30,000membersin100countries,MLAhostsanannualconventionandothermeetings,workswithrelatedorganizations,andmaintainsoneofthefinestpublishingprogramsinthehumanities.Itsinvolvementwithforeignlanguageteachingandlearningspecificallyisevidencedbyitsroleinthecreationofotherkeyorganizations.CTFL:ThenationalumbrellaorganizationfortheforeignlanguageteachingprofessionistheCouncilontheTeachingofForeignLanguages(CTFL),foundedin1967bytheleadershipoftheMLA,toaddressissuesofteacherpreparation,languageinstruction,andcurriculumdevelopment.Inrecentyears,CTFLlauncheditsResearchPrioritiesinForeignLanguageEducationProgramtoidentifykeyareasinwhichresearchisneededtoinformandimproveclassroompracticeandtosponsorthisresearchthroughfunding,publication.TESOL:TESOLstandsforTeachersofEnglishtoSpeakersofOtherLanguages,andtheprofessionalassociationisTESOLInternationalAssociation.ThefieldofteachingEnglishtospeakersofotherlanguagesisaprofessionalpursuitthatrequiresspecializedtraining.TESOLdiffersfromteachingEnglishtonativespeakersofEnglish,sinceitsprimaryfocusisonteachingnon-nativestocommunicateinEnglishandunderstandculturalpracticesofEnglish-speakingcommunities.Englishasasecondlanguage(ESL)educatorsteachEnglishlanguagelearners(ELLs)incountrieswhereEnglishisthedominantlanguage,suchasAustralia,Canada,England,andtheUnitedStates.Englishasaforeignlanguage(EFL)educatorsteachincountrieswhereEnglishisspokenonlyasaforeignlanguage,suchasJapanandSaudiArabia.40.WhatistheprimaryfocusoftheModernLanguageAssociation(MLA)?A.PromotingtheteachingofEnglishtospeakersofotherlanguages.B.Facilitatingthestudyandteachingoflanguagesandliteratures.C.Improvinglanguageinstructionthroughspecializedtraining.D.Fundingresearchinforeignlanguageeducation.41.WhatisasignificantprograminitiatedbytheCTFLinrecentyears?A.Anannualconventionforlanguageteachers.B.Alanguagepublishingprogramforliterarystudies.C.Establishingaglobalnetworkoflanguageeducators.D.TheResearchPrioritiesinForeignLanguageEducationProgram.42.HowdoesTESOLdifferfromMLAandCTFL?A.TESOLismorefocusedonliterature,whileMLAandCTFLfocusonlanguage.B.TESOLpromotesthestudyofalllanguages,whileMLAandCTFLfocusonEnglish.C.TESOLisspecifictoteachingEnglishtonon-nativespeakers,unlikeMLAandCTFL.D.TESOLoperatesinEnglish-speakingcountries,whileMLAandCTFLworkinternationally.【答案】40.B41.D42.C【語篇解讀】本文是一篇應用文。文章介紹了外語領域的三個重要專業組織——MLA、CTFL和TESOL。【40題詳析】細節理解題。根據MLA部分中“Foundedin1883,theModernLanguageAssociation(MLA)promotesthestudyandteachingoflanguagesandliteraturesandoffersopportunitiesforitsmemberstosharetheirscholarlyliteraryfindingsandteachingexperienceswithcolleagues.(成立于1883年的現代語言協會(MLA)促進語言和文學的學習與教學，并為其成員提供與同事分享學術文學研究成果和教學經驗的機會)”可知，MLA的主要重點是促進語言和文學的學習與教學。故選B項。【41題詳析】細節理解題。根據CTFL部分中“Inrecentyears,CTFLlauncheditsResearchPrioritiesinForeignLanguageEducationProgramtoidentifykeyareasinwhichresearchisneededtoinformandimproveclassroompracticeandtosponsorthisresearchthroughfunding,publication.(近年來，CTFL發起了外語教育研究優先項目，以確定需要進行研究的關鍵領域，為課堂實踐提供信息并加以改進，并通過資金和出版物來資助這項研究)”可知，CTFL近年來發起的一個重要項目是外語教育研究優先項目。故選D項。【42題詳析】細節理解題。根據TESOL部分中“TESOLdiffersfromteachingEnglishtonativespeakersofEnglish,sinceitsprimaryfocusisonteachingnon-nativestocommunicateinEnglishandunderstandculturalpracticesofEnglishspeakingcommunities.(TESOL與向以英語為母語的人教授英語不同，因為它的主要重點是教非母語人士用英語進行交流，并了解英語國家的文化習俗)”可知，TESOL專門針對向非母語人士教授英語，這與MLA和CTFL不同。故選C項。(C)FromCrisistoCommunityCurrencyThefinancialcrisisof2008sentshockwavesthroughoutmanycountriesintheEurozone,andindeedtheworld.OneofthehardesthitnationswasGreece.FormanyGreeksthismeantbeingthrownontothebreadlineorworsestill,plungingbelowthelineofpoverty.Forothers,thecreditcrunch(信貸緊縮)preventedthemfromusingcreditcardsastheirdebtsmounted.Whilemostpeoplefelthopeless,manydecidedtotakethebullbythehorns.WhenresidentsofthesmalltownofVolosfoundthemselvesstrugglingtoaffordevenessentialitemsineuros,whattheydidwastocomeupwithanalternativecurrency.TheypayforthegoodsinTEM,TEMbeingalocalalternativecurrencythatpeoplecanearnbyofferingtheirservicesorgoodstoothers.TheTEMsystem,whichbringstomindtheancientbarteringsystem,operatesonanexchangebasis.MembersoftheTEMcommunitygaincreditbydoingjobsforotherpeopleorsellingthemtheirownproduce.Forexample,bysellingclothesinTEMatthemarket,atradercouldgetlanguageorcomputerlessonsinreturn.Asonestall-holderatthemarketputit,“Wehavereachedthebottomofourlivesandwenowhavetothinkinadifferentway.”Butit’snotonlyatthelocalmarketthatTEMisaccepted.Evenwell-establishedlocalshopsinVoloswillacceptbothTEMandeuros.Insomecases,paymentcanbemadeinparteuroandpartTEM.Hard-upcustomerscan,therefore,makemoreaffordablepurchasesandstoreownerscancovertheircosts.So,howdoesthesystemoperateinpracticalterms?Thesystem,whichhasbeendevelopedonline,requiresmemberstohaveTEMaccounts.Theseaccounts,whicharecreditedwhentheyearnTEManddebitedwhentheymakeapurchase,arecloselyregulatedbyfoundingmembersoftheTEMcommunity.Butforthosewhofeelthatparallelcurrenciesaretoocomplicatedamatter,theycanturntoanotherorganizationcalledPeliti.2002wasthe
