答案解析

D1

1. B. 根据第一段中的She is used to not having what other people have. Mostly, the 19-year-old student just accepts it可知Brie Fainblit已经学会接受贫困的生活，但是对于毕业舞会她不甘心敷衍了事。

2. B. 根据She wants to be Highland High School’s prom queen. She wants to turn heads和There is never enough money for new clothes可知经济拮据的Brie Fainblit只能通过制作拉环礼服来使得自己在毕业舞会上获得关注。

3. C. 根据And who knew that it would take many months to get enough perfectly shaped, identical (同样的) silver tabs for one prom dress?可知C正确。

4. B. take one’s toll表示“造成损伤”的意思。后文Fainblit and her mother both have Band-Aids on their fingers也印证了这一点。

D2

1.A. 根据Well, to an Australian like myself, British English sounds more academic (学究气的) and educated than American English可知选A。

2. B. 根据the two main factors (因素) that affect the way people speak English are geographical (地理的) (where they are in the world) and social (the way their parents, friends and other people they talk to speak)可知影响口音的主要有地理和社会两个方面的因素，而既然是在同一个城市里，那么社会因素会占主要影响地位。

3. C. 伦敦人和曼彻斯特人说的都是英语，但是口音不同，要区别开language和accent两个概念。

4. B. 根据In the end, the choice is yours - just remember to be consistent可知B正确。

D3

1. C. 关于输血的缺点，文章主要提到了两点，第一点是First of all, certain blood types are extremely rare，也就是C项对应的内容。另外一点是donated blood comes from various people, which means that it has to be screened carefully for diseases such as hepatitis (肝炎) and HIV to make sure that it’s safe for transfusion，但这和B，D两项均无法对应。

2. C. 根据Unlike many other scientists, who have tried to make blood substitutes by blending (混合) different ingredients together, Turner chose to grow blood directly from human stem cells (干细胞)可知C项正确。

3. D. 根据Not only is it a rare blood type, it’s also a universal type, which means it can be transfused into any patient可知D项正确。

4. A. 倒数第二段提到it could be another 20 years before the artificial blood can be manufactured on a large scale这个事实，对照最后一段Turner的讲述，大规模应用人造血还有很长的路要走，因此Turner的态度是很谨慎的。

D4

1. B. 根据He was a large man, both physically and socially - he was independent and strong. I worried that a place like our hospital, which demanded teamwork, was not right for such a personality可知B正确。

2. C. 原文中Mary’s thin old hands flew up to her face in a gesture of wonder and joy, then flew out hungrily like a starved child taking bread. Mary grabbed the red purse. She held it for a moment, just to see it, then pressed it to her breast, rocking it like a baby这一系列的描述表明Mary喜形于色，她对于Kenny的帮助十分感激。

3. D. 根据I walked back to my desk and sat down in a stunned (震惊的) silence. I had been wrong about Kenny可知D正确。

4. C. 根据文章大意可知作者最初对Kenny形成了刻板的印象，但是Kenny帮助Mary的故事让作者看到了Kenny与众不同的一面：富有同情心并且勇于付诸行动。这让作者对于自己先入为主的偏见产生了悔意。作者想要告诉读者不要急于给别人下定论。

PII

1. C。根据最后一段的“In addition to promoting (提升) coding skills, the Code-in contest introduces open-source firms (公司), plus Google, to a cadre (核心) of talented kids”可以得此答案。没有说这个比赛在硅谷举行，故A不对。B文中没有提到。D的47有误，应该是46个国家。

2. B。根据第三第四段可以得此答案。A的for google有误。C的perfectly跟第五段的“His work was polished and improved by the other volunteers”不符。Patt的贡献是大家现在可以点击一个键就能转换到自己母语的页面，而在他以前，人们需要到另一个网址才能实现页面语言的转换。所以D不对。

3. B。根据“His prize is a four-day trip to Mountain View, California, where Theo will meet the Google team, plus his mentors (导师) from Wikipedia.”可以得此答案。

4. A。根据“For him, the magic of coding is the creativity and the sociability of interacting with others.”可以得此答案。

PIII

1. B. 根据In the old days, the lemurs were very sacred. Village elders said it was taboo (禁忌) to hunt lemurs because ... they have many human qualities, like their faces and hands可知B正确。

2. B. 根据With stunning (令人震撼的) aerial (空中的) shots and a closeup look at the lives of these peculiar (独特的) little creatures, the movie takes viewers along on an amazing exploration可知B正确。

3. D. 根据Now, working in Madagascar, having that social work background has been very helpful可知D正确。
