解析:
Day 1
1、B。段落大意题，本段只是一个引子，从足球融合了全世界谈起，谈到唯独美国不接受足球，进而谈到全球化的影响，但是再次强调美国的体育文化还是和足球文化大不相同。
2、C。细节理解题，根据文章第五小段即可知答案，C选项并未被提到，其它三个选项都能在本段中找到相应的根据。
3、C。细节理解题，根据文章第四小段最后一句话就可推知答案。根据第三段可以排除A项。D选项文章没有谈到。B项相关的原文是they are appalled (惊讶) that star players like David Beckham are traded like horsemeat from one team to another, often leaving their home country (such players are disloyal)，经常不为自己国家而战，所以才被看作不忠诚。而根据常识NBA的队之间也会有队员转队的。所以可判断C正确。
4、B。推论题，根据文章最后一段就可推知答案。根据倒数第二段for Europeans, they can’t believe that a national sport would change its rules to suit TV…可判断错误。 C项不符合原文表述。原文只是说美国人喜欢打棒球，但并没有因为这点上和别国不同而骄傲。D项错误的原因是文章是很客观的表述现象和分析现象背后的文化，作者并没有评判孰好孰坏。
Day 2
1. D。从节选演讲稿的第一段“…in an era of heightened international competition, with an economy that’s still rebounding from the worst crisis since the Great Depression”以及第二段的“you’re coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments”可知A、B、C项Obama都有提及，而D项文中没有涉及。
2. A。由节选演讲稿的第二段“you’re coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don’t always rank that high on the truth meter”可知，媒体提供给我们的信息并不都是准确的，有些信息言过其实，所以可推知，A项正确，我们要辩证地看待媒体提供给我们的信息。
3. B。最后一段主要是讲述了教育在现时代的重要性，所以B项正确。
Day 3
1. A。文章主要谈了关于时空穿梭的事情，从开头谈到各种相关的文艺作品，之后谈到了科学家霍金新发表的观点，可以到未来，但是回不到过去。所以A正确。
2. A。根据第二段可以判断A正确。根据这段…has always been a popular theme in science fiction.可知罗列的这些名字包括”Back to the future triology”都是科幻的作品，所以不是某频道的节目，排除B项。根据第六段排除C项。最后一项从文章看不出来。
3. C。根据“After another two years of full thrust the ship would reach full speed, 98% of the speed of light, and each day on the ship would be a year on Earth.”可判断C正确。
4. C。根据文章最后一段，可知选C。
Day 4
1. D。由第八段“Most everything you do comes with risks. You could break your arm at gymnastics. Do you want to stop going to gymnastics?”可知，作者让女儿意识到只能直面自己的恐惧，要不然很多自己喜欢的事情都做不了了，故选D。
2. A。从第10段“congratulating myself for being a self-sufficient single parent”以及第15段“What grandma wants is for some guy to break my heart again,”可知作者离婚了，在感情方面受过伤害故不愿再涉足感情，所以A选项正确。go to gymnastics只是作者用来劝说女儿的一个例子而已，所以B不对；C项不对，作者并没有生女儿的气，而是对自己的母亲不满，所以C项不对；文中提到作者的女儿因为第一次学自行车时摔断了胳膊，而害怕继续尝试，所以D项也不对。
3. B。作者与女儿前一天晚上发生过争执，并不等于他们相处不好，所以A不对；作者的女儿尝试劝说母亲继续寻找爱情，但是她没有提到具体的对象，所以D项不对；她从学自行车的经历中领悟到love is like a broken arm, 我们在失败后还是可以重新开始的， 所以C项不对。聪明的女儿“现炒现卖”，而且是把同样的原则用到了抽象的事情上，也促使母亲有所领悟。
4. D。作者鼓励女儿克服恐惧感再次骑自行车以及作者在母亲和女儿的鼓励下重新找到爱这两件事都告诉我们不能因为之前的不愉快的经历而害怕继续尝试，所以D为最佳答案。
Day 5
1-5 BADCB 6-10 ACDBA 11-15 CCABA 16-20 CABDC
本文讲述了卡特里娜飓风袭击新奥尔良后，作者一家的经历（免费修车、免费理发、免费租房），作者深切感受到陌生人无私援助人间温暖。
1. B。整句话意思为：由于受到飓风的袭击，家乡新奥尔良的房屋已成齐腰高的废墟，臭气熏天，脏乱不堪。reduce sb/sth (from sth) to sth指使某人/物陷入某种（通常指更坏的）状态或状况中，这里用了过去分词，表状态。

M: I feel restless these days. I need change in my life. Perhaps I’ll go on a trip, Mary. But where to? Do you have any ideas?
W: I think I can help you, Donald. The planet has all been explored. Human beings have been everywhere on Earth. But how about a trip into space? Soon it won’t just be astronauts strapping themselves into a rocket and being shot into orbit!
M: This is interesting, Mary, tell me more.
W: A Spanish company has this cool idea for a hotel in space. It’s set to open in 2012. Guests will take a rocket, of course. The journey will take a day and a half.
M: And what will they do when they get there?
W: Well, they won’t be going to the beach, that’s for sure. But they’ll get to know how it feels to be Spiderman. How do you fancy being able to walk around the walls of your hotel room? And you’ll be able to see the sun rise 15 times a day.
M: Mary, you have me sold on this idea. It would be just the thing for my restless spirit. Do you happen to know the cost? I’ll go to the bank this afternoon, get out the money and book myself a place on that rocket. Outer space, here I come!
W: Er, you might have to save up for a while. The cost is 3 million euros.
M: Oh well. Maybe I’ll just have a weekend at the seaside.
