答案解析
D1
1. D. 原文提到They’re the kind of students who slip through the cracks in America’s inner-city schools. Yet each day they come together to join one of Summit County, Ohio’s brightest groups of students. 结合前两段的内容,可知两人虽然家庭出身贫寒,却都很努力。
2. B. 原文提到It’s part of a national program that bridges secondary and post-secondary education, fostering (培养) independent students who attend college classes while knocking out a high school diploma (毕业证). 参加the Akron Early College High School program项目的学生能够拿到高中毕业证和大学两年学习的肄业证书。
3. B。 根据最后一段“We have no discipline (纪律) issue”可知学生们没有纪律问题,所以act up表示“不守规矩”的意思。
4. B。根据倒数两段的内容可知the Akron Early College High School program帮助Jonathan Jones养成了良好的生活学习习惯(see school differently)。
D3
1. B. 根据第三段的But the truth is that not everything is determined by numbers.可知作者在开头提出这些问题就是让人们意识到数字可能会误导我们。
2. D。根据But Spiegelhalter says that life is about more than just numbers - it’s also about how we feel.可知Spiegelhalter认为最重要的不是数字本身,而是如何理解数字背后的含义。
3. C。根据“But I did buy a house by the river. I decided the joys of the beautiful view outweighed (超过) the moderate (适度的) risk of flooding. I’m all for adventurousness, we just need to be sure that doesn’t swerve (转变方向) into recklessness (鲁莽).”可知人们解读数字和数据时要充分考虑自己的感受。冒险要适度,不能鲁莽做决定,同时要考虑生活的真正需要。
D4
1. D。根据第二段的“It had to be done perfectly, or he might end up emotionally scarred”可以得此答案。AB文中没有提到。由第二段的“I did not want the burden”和“It would have been easy to run from this task and leave it to a parent”可知,作者心里对于是否去帮助孩子面对死亡,还是有些犹豫的,所以C有误。
2. B。根据第三段的“As I spoke, the boy moved quickly away from me, probably so I could not see his face”可以得此答案。
3. D。根据第三段的最后两句话,男孩同意让他的猫安乐死,作者也认为那是最好的选择。
4. D。从作者温柔地跟男孩解释猫的病情,到他或她自己泪流满面,再到最后给男孩的拥抱,我们不难看出作者对男孩是同情支持的态度。
