D1 1-3 CAD
1. C。根据第二段But he said doing it made him wonder why hot water worked better than cold water when washing, and what made soap a good cleaner.以及第五段He ended up learning why soap and hot water are better for cleaning , and a way to remove oil from water. 可知C正确。B选项错在虽然石油泄漏的事件也给了Nathan灵感做相关的科研，但是他最终并没有研究出更好的清理油泄漏的方法。A选项错在他和其他人一样不爱做家务。D选项错在刚开始他认为自己的想法是幼稚的，因此不能说很自信自己能够得奖。
2. A。Nathan能够从在家务中想到要探究背后的原理，并且成功地设计出了相关的装置来测量表面张力，可判断他具备好奇心，并且很聪明。B选项错在shy；C选项错在outgoing；D选项错在polite。
3. D。根据文章最后一段When asked his secret to success, he said to keep a science fair project simple at first. “Break down the problem into smaller, manageable steps, so in that way, you will be able to know what you are doing and build on your knowledge gradually.”可知D选项正确。C选项和D选项所表达的意思正好相反。A，B选项文中均没有明确提及。
D2 1-4 AADC
1. A。根据文章第一段可知a，b选项正确，根据第二段可知d选项错在Scandinavia这个地区是比较冷的，c选项文章中没有提到，而且由文章内容可知，北欧这些国家之间其实是有一些共同点的。综上，正确答案为A。
2. A。根据倒数第二段As you’d expect, the Scandinavian cities are also welcoming to visitors.可知A选项正确。B选项错在busy；根据第三段What doesn’t come to mind is citizens who like to party.可知C选项错误；根据第五段The city’s authorities have preserved the attractive wooden houses from the 19th century. Many of these have been made over into restaurants and coffee bars.可知D选项错误。
3. D。根据前一句The people don’t care about your ethnic background or anything else that some other places might take exception to.以及此句的后半句everyone’s invited to the party.可知这里的人没有偏见，每个人都会被邀请去派对，可见tolerant应与open-minded意思相近，表示宽容的。
4. C。文章先介绍了Scandinavia这个地区的一些总体特点（第一段和第二段），接着介绍了这个地区人们爱交际、欢迎游客的特点，中间还介绍了Gothenburg吸引人的地方，因此C选项最为恰当。A，D选项文中没有提及；B选项只是部分内容。
D3 1-3 BAB
1. B。根据第五段What’s more, the students were able to best match the faces to the names when the faces they looked at came from within their own culture.可知人们能够更好地匹配自己文化中的名字和长相，因此选B。A选项错在25%说的是正常四选一能随机猜对的概率。C选项错在研究只是想发现名字和长相有没有联系以及探究背后的原因。D选项错在是给照片选名字，而不是给名词猜选项。
2. A。文章第六段和第七段的内容大致为：研究人员认为人们是在无意识地改变自己的长相来迎合社会对他们名字的期望，且早期相关的研究也证实了这点，并举了Bob的例子，人们认为叫Bob的人的脸会比叫Tim的人更圆一些，这些对名字的偏见时间长了就影响了人们的长相，这两段实际上是在解释人们长得像自己的名字的原因，因此选A。
3. B。根据倒数第二段If a name can influence appearance, it can influence many other things and this research opens an important direction that may suggest how parents should consider better the names they give their children,可知研究者认为名字除了影响长相，还会影响其他方面，因此父母在起名字的时候要慎重考虑，因此选B。A，C选项文中没有提及；D选项和文章表达的意思刚好相反，文章认为我们应该注重名字的含义，慎重起名。
D4 1-4 BCCA
1. B。根据文章前三段可知，作者在大学期间就一直想要把技术和艺术结合，作者生病后有了更多的时间独处，才有更多的时间进行尝试，因此选B。A选项错在只是一只耳朵听不见了。C选项错在吃药之后听力并没有恢复。D选项错在作者是因为上了这个课之后才爱上了computers and code，这才有了后面大学期间想要把技术和艺术结合的想法，生病只是让她有时间真正地去做尝试，而不是因为生病了才有时间上技术课程。
2. C。根据文章第四段可知C选项正确。A选项错在作者小时候并没有想到艺术和技术可以结合，而是上了相关的技术课之后才爱上了技术，同时也可排除B选项。D选项文章中没有明确提及她关注telecommunications是为了恢复自己的听力，作者只是想贡献一点力量，让之后可能的灾害不会影响到生活中的通讯交流。
3. C。根据倒数第二段They have had more to do with what people think of my work and of me than anything technical, however.可知作者遇到的最大困难是人们对自己的看法。
4. A。根据最后一段We should try to turn something bad that happens to us into something positive. We have to make time for hard work and we have to trust our feelings. We must never give up.可知作者主要想传达的是不好的事情也可以转变为好的、积极的事情，作者自身的经历也证实了这点。
D5 听力原文
（一）
1. US Teens Learn From Jobs
What do you do during your free time? Travel? Hang out with friends? Well, some American teenagers over the age of 14 get part-time jobs. Their part-time jobs can be babysitting, waiting tables or even working at a movie theater.
But why do teens do this? Some want extra money. Others want to start saving money for college because some US parents may not pay for their children’s tuition. Some teens might want to save money for something big, like buying a car.
Many teens choose to get part-time jobs during the summer holiday. That’s because they are busy studying during the school year.
Having a part-time job is great for any US teen. They get an idea of what the real working world is like. And it gives them skills and experience. That will help them get a full-time job later in life.
2. US Kids Learn to Horse Around
Horses aren’t common in the city of Suffolk, US. But a new program makes them a part of school life for some Huntington Middle School students.
The school began the program two months ago. There are 25 students in the program now. Early last month, these students visited a farm. They learned to clean, feed and ride horses. “The program is, first, to teach students about horses,” said Anthony Hooper, CEO of the program. “And it teaches them how to look after animals and be responsible people.”
Ronald Green, a sixth-grader, felt great about the first visit. He hopes for a second.
“It’s nice to take care of something other than ourselves,” Green said. “If we can look after a horse, we can look after our life. That’s amazing.”
（二）US Students Start School
It’s time to go back to school! Are you ready? Let’s see what American students do on the first day of school.
Most Chinese schools start on the same day in September. But US schools don’t. Classes can start any time between August and September. Each school gets to decide when their classes will start. If summers are hot, then school might start a little later.
In American schools, students don’t have fixed classrooms. They can choose their favorite teachers and courses. So before school starts, they spend some time picking their own schedule.
New students to junior high also get their own lockers on the first day of school. Elementary school students in the US have to share them with their classmates. But once they get to high school, they have their own place to store their bags and coats!
