D1 1-4 DADC
D2 1-5 ACDDA
D3 1-4 BDCD
D4 1-4 BCDB
D5 1-5 BDACF
解析:
D1:
1. D。从第二段最后一句(The show features various great performers who read remarkable letters from around the world that had been written over the centuries.)可以看出这个节目邀请优秀的演员朗诵几个世纪以来世界范围内非常好的信件。因此选择D选项。
2. A。从第四段可以看出,Cumberbatch认为信件是了解写信人和收信人的感受的窗口,Letter Live这个节目可以让人停下来去想象信件所反映的生活。因此选择A选项。
3. D。从第五段最后一句话(that two-time Oscar winner Hanks’ teenage dream was not to “be a big-time, Hollywood superstar” but to one day own a Porsche car and call his favorite US actor Robert Redford his nickname “Bob”.)可以看出Hanks青少年时期的梦想不是当一个一流的好莱坞巨星(因此排除C项),而是有一天能够拥有保时捷汽车,可以称呼他最喜欢的美国演员Robert Redford的昵称“Bob”。因此选择D选项。
4. C。从倒数第二段第二句和最后一句可以看出这封要求给予女性投票权利的信件感情强烈(passionate)且表达清楚(forthright),且最后一段引用信中的语言也表明了信件的观点明确、有力。因此选择C选项。
D2:
1. A。根据文章第一段第二句(…who finished last in two events at the 1988 Olympic Games…)可以看出Eddie在比赛中是最后一名,与第一句话(We always give flowers and applause to winners.我们通常将鲜花与掌声给予赢家。)相反。因此选择A选项,在比赛中不太可能赢的人。
2. C。文章的第四段讲了周围人认为Eddie想要参加奥运会的梦想很不现实,又根据第六段第一句话(Edwards doesn’t give up, and instead he tries his hardest to make his dream come true against all odds.)判断出他没有放弃,而是克服重重困难实现了自己的梦想。因而选择C选项,他没有在意周围人的消极看法,而是不断努力。
3. D。根据文章的第四段总起说大多数人把他的梦想视为笑话,再根据下面一一举出的例子: Eddie的父亲想要他面对现实,当一个泥水匠;选拔参赛选手的官员在他达到标准后故意提高了标准,为了防止他给自己和国家丢脸。因此选择D选项,周围人对他的期望不高。排除C项的依据在第六段。
4. D。根据第七段第二句(His spirit wins the audience over and touches newspapers and TV shows, so they give him the nickname “The Eagle”.)可以看出因为Eddie的精神(第八段具体解释了这点—坚持梦想)感动了观众,所以人们给他起了个“The Eagle”这个外号,因此选择D选项。
5. A。从最后一段可以看出Taron Egerton认为Eddie为了追逐自己的梦想,竟然都不做自我保护,这种精神很鼓舞人心,因此选择A选项。
D3:
1. B。根据The element was first discovered in Germany (hence the name) and was used to develop the first transistor because it can transport electricity very quickly可知B正确。
2. D。根据In the traditional process, people take the material after zinc mining or burning coal. But the Freiburg scientists decided to fall back on the natural world可知植物采矿的新方法更绿色,从So many of the costs are already covered in existing biogas plants可知植物采矿的方法更环保。
3. C。根据“Different energy crops are being planted, for example sunflowers, corn, … we want to use them for phytomining. In German we call it ‘mining with plants’”和Now scientists are working on different plants to improve this可知C正确。
4. D。根据Professor Martin Bertau的话可以看出,相关行业的企业还在观望,他们想要看到几乎一切都可以运转了,才会说购买(新技术)。但是我们(科研人员)必须要先把中间环节完成了,而前面一段说到在能获益之前还有很多要做,目前的产量也很低,所以可推断植物采矿的方法尚未达到工业化大量出产的规模,因此科学家尚须努力。
D4:
1. B。a blessing in disguise指的是坏事情有时会有好的结果,塞翁失马之意。本文谈到作者在父亲去世后度过了艰难的一年,但同时化悲痛为力量也收获了许多并成长,故选B。A与第一段不符,C项作者还未成为一位成功的舞者,D项与全文不符。
2. C。根据But as a fairly new dancer, I haven't had too many stage experiences. 及But my anxiety kicked in and my heart was racing可知作者作为新手缺乏舞台经验,表演时很紧张。A、B与文中不符,D项文中形容紧张得像得了心脏病,而非患病。
3. D。从文中可以看出作者遇到困难时,朋友的安慰与鼓励给予她巨大的力量,作者心存感激。A项与文意不符;B项与原文When grief hits them, many ask, "Why?" "How?" The truth is, there are no answers and there will probably be no reasonable ones for a long time.不符。C项与I thought people had forgotten I was still dealing with my father's death as if it were yesterday.不符。
4. B。本文夹叙夹议,作者讲述了父亲去世后她的经历及心路历程,鼓励人们积极乐观地应对悲痛。
