B
She was sitting up at four months, walking at eight months and completing 100-piece jigsaw puzzles（拼图玩具）at 15 months. So it is no surprise that Abigail Wilson, 15, from Connecticut, USA, recently made history when she became the youngest black girl ever accepted into an American university! “I’m proud of myself for getting in, but I usually find it hard to get excited. It’s pretty cool, I guess,” said Abigail.
Her mother, Nancy, said that Abigail was a quiet baby, born two weeks late on Christmas Day. She didn’t speak her first words until she was 22 months old! Nancy and her husband thought something must be wrong, but when she started to talk, her speech was perfect. She already knew her colours, letters and was able to read. Her parents read her normal bedtime stories and they didn’t know she was learning all of it.
Abigail has always been the youngest person in her class. At six she was in the fourth grade, at ten she took her first high school class in Maths. She has studied several languages, including Spanish, French, Chinese, Russian, Arabic and German.
Abigail says that she doesn’t usually plan when she studies, she calls herself scatterbrained（注意力不集中的）and she always delays（拖延）things up to the last minute. This gives her the motivation to really do something.
In her free time, Abigail plays basketball, surfs the Internet, reads, cooks and hangs out with her friends: they are all 17 and 18.She has also studied music. Her mother says that Abigail’s music lessons helped her to be a normal teen. She believes that Abigail needed to be in a situation where she had to fail in order to learn. “She found playing the piano very difficult, but it made her learn better,” said Nancy. “She can’t always be successful, she won’t be able to learn anything! People always learn more from their failures than from their successes”.
4. Why is it no surprise that Abigail went to university at 15?
A. She was a hard-working girl.
B. She was always ahead of other kids.
C. She was brought up in a special way.
D. She was no different than other black girls.
5. What can we learn about Abigail?
A. She is crazy about sports.
B. She has a gift for language.
C. Her favourite subject is maths.
D. Her success is due to good habits.
6. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A. Abigail has a better education than others.
B. Abigail won’t be a normal girl without music.
C. Nancy didn’t like Abigail when she was a baby.
D. Abigail usually does things when they are emergent.
7. What did Nancy’s words mean?
A. Abigail failed to have a normal life.
B. Abigail needed to learn from failures.
C. Abigail was good at playing the piano.
D. Abigail wanted to always be successful.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. B
【解析】文章讲述了天才女孩Abigail15岁考上大学，并且在语言、运动、音乐、读书、烹调方面都有超人的表现。
5. 推理判断题。根据第三段She has studied several languages, including Spanish, French, Chinese, Russian, Arabic and German. Abigail学过几种语言，包括西班牙语、法语、汉语、俄语、阿拉伯语和德语。由此可知她有学习语言的天赋，故选B.
6. 细节理解题。根据第四段she always delays（拖延）things up to the last minute.可知Abigail总是把事情拖延到最后，事情总是到了最后时刻才去做。故选D.
7. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“She found playing the piano very difficult, but it made her learn better,” said Nancy. “She can’t always be successful, she won’t be able to learn anything! People always learn more from their failures than from their successes”.可知Nancy认为Abigail是在不断的失败中学习，最后成功。她需要经历失败，故选B.
C
No one thought that the RMS Titanic would sink on its first time at sea. But in 1912, the ship hit an iceberg and sank during the night. No one knew exactly where it had sunk. Even if someone had known, it was 12,500 feet (3.8 km) underwater. To search for the Titanic so deep in the water seemed impossible. But, 73 years later, Dr. Robert Ballard thought he had found a way to go that deep.
In 1985, Ballard set out to find the Titanic. He would use an unmanned submarine（无人驾驶的潜水艇）called Argo. Ballard’s research team controlled it from a ship on the surface. Argo had video cameras and lights on it. This let Ballard see the ocean floor.
Argo searched for signs of the Titanic. For many days and nights, Ballard and his teammates found nothing but sand and sea life. Time was running out. Ballard had only four days left before he had to return his boat. He knew this would be his only chance. Then, Ballard was awakened by one of his men. It was just after one o’clock in the morning. He rushed to the control room. On a screen was the view of one of the Titanic's boilers. They had found it!
Argo took amazing pictures of the ship. Ballard and his teammates found that the huge ship was in pieces. The debris was spread across one square mile (2.6 km2) of the ocean floor. They saw teacups, bottles, shoes, and other belongings（所有物）of the passengers.
During his career, Ballard has made more than 100 trips underwater. He has done much to teach children about the oceans. But, he will always be thought of as the man who found the Titanic.
8. Why was it difficult to find the Titanic?
A. Its size was huge. B. It was deep under the sea.
C. It had been broken into pieces. D. The weather at sea was terrible.
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. The poor life at sea. B. The difficulties in controlling Argo.
C. The causes of the Titanic’s sinking. D. The experience of finding the Titanic.
10. What does the underlined word “debris” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Rocks and sand. B. Dead passengers.
C. Pieces from the Titanic. D. Personal belongings.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Ballard’s life B. Finding the Titanic
C. Underwater trips D. The sinking of the Titanic
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】文章介绍了Ballard和他的团队利用无人潜艇Argo寻找Titanic残骸的过程，结果和重要贡献。
8. 细节理解题。根据第一段No one knew exactly where it had sunk. Even if someone had known, it was 12,500 feet (3.8 km) underwater. To search for the Titanic so deep in the water seemed impossible.可知寻找Titanic残骸很难，因为它可能在水下12,500英尺的深海底，故选B.
9. 推理判断题。根据第三段For many days and nights, Ballard and his teammates found nothing but sand and sea life. Then, Ballard was awakened by one of his men.和 On a screen was the view of one of the Titanic's boilers. They had found it! 等内容可知本段在描述Ballard和他的团队利用无人潜艇Argo寻找Titanic残骸的过程，故选D.
10. 猜测词义题。此处指Ballard和他的队友们发现这艘巨大的船已经支离破碎，残骸散落在一平方英里(2.6平方公里)的海底。“debris”指的是Titanic的残骸，即Pieces from the Titanic.故选C.
11. 主旨大意题。文章第一段介绍寻找Titanic残骸很困难；第二、三两段介绍Ballard和他的团队利用无人潜艇Argo寻找Titanic残骸的过程；第四段介绍发现的Titanic残骸和乘客物品；最后一段写Ballard的重要贡献。Finding the Titanic能概括全文内容，适合作为标题。故选B.
【点睛】
词义猜测题要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境上下文来判断其意义。因此熟练掌握一些猜词技巧是做好这类题的关键。下面结合近几年高考试题，对词义猜测的技巧加以解读。
1.根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测
有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其意义的词或短语，下面接着出现其定义或解释，这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依据。例如：It will be very hard but also very brittle—that is, it will break easily.从后面that is(也就是说)的解释中我们可以了解到brittle 是“脆”的意思。
2.根据同位关系进行猜测
阅读中出现的难词有时后面紧跟一个同位语，对前面的词进行解释，这时可利用同位关系对前面或后面的词义或句意进行猜测。例如：The “Chunnel”, a tunnel(隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete.此句中a tunnel connecting England and France是Chunnel的同位语。因此，The “Chunnel”就是英法之间的海底隧道。
3.根据构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)进行猜测
在英语中，有很多词可以在前面加前缀，在后面加后缀，从而构成一个词，乍看起来，这个词可能是新词，但掌握了一定的构词知识，就不难猜出它的词义。例如：“Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10,” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive and creative in that they built a sense of drama based on a subject.”文中interactive是由前缀inter-(相互的)和active(活动的，活跃的)而构成的，同时根据上下文的意思可以判断，该词的含义应是“互动的”。
4.根据转折或对比关系进行猜测
根据上下句的连接词，如but, however, otherwise等就可以看到前后句在意义上的差别，从而依据某一句的含义，来确定另一句的含义。另外，分号也可以表示转折、对比或不相干的意义。例如：A child’s birthday party doesn’t have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun.从前后两句的意思可以看出，hassle和a basket of fun肯定是近乎相反的意义。所以不难判断hassle的意思是“困难，麻烦”。

Experts say that, among young Internet users, it’s not boys who create most web content. The pioneers of the Internet at the moment are the girls.
According to Jenny Baker, whose hobbies are designing icons（图示）, most boys just aren’t patient enough for blogging, uploading photographs, and creating their own websites. Jenny posts her pictures on her own website, and believes that most boys don’t often have their own sites. She thinks it’s mainly girls.
And Jenny is right. A study shows that, among Internet users aged 12 to 17, a lot more girls blog than boys (35 percent of girls compared with 20 percent of boys). A lot more girls also work on their web pages (32 percent of girls compared with 22 percent of boys). Girls are also ahead of boys in working on websites for other people.
Some girls have their own teenage podcasts（播客）which have become very successful and sometimes the creators have their own TV shows too. When asked what they think about the study that shows girls are more active on the web, they say that they’re not surprised because girls are very creative, and sometimes more creative than boys.
Other girl have started interactive（交流的）e-zines with articles written for girls by girls. “Girls from everywhere read our articles, and they ask lots of questions,” they say. “I think girls like to help other people more.” One expert said: “If boys were more interested in helping other people, the numbers would be different.”
But if girls are more interested in computers, why do women only have 27 percent of computer-related jobs? Maybe this will change in the future—after all, girls like these will be in the job market before too long.
12. Why does Jenny think boys don’t create web content?
A. They are impatient. B. They don’t have their own sites.
C. They are busy with their hobbies. D. They know little about web science.
13. What does the study show?
A. Girls prefer working on websites to blogging.
B. Girls watch more online TV shows than boys.
C. Girls spend most of their online time helping others.
D. Girls are more active in creating their own web business than boys.
14. What is the author’s opinion on the number of women in computer-related jobs?
A. Upset. B. Worried.
C. Hopeful. D. Satisfied.
15. What will probably happen in the future according to the author?
A. Girls will never match boys in computer science.
B. Boys will be more successful in making websites.
C. Less boys will like to read articles written by girls.
D. More and more girls will do computer-related jobs.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】研究表明：女孩在电脑网络方面更积极和有创造性，从事此方面工作的人数比男孩多。
12. 细节理解题。根据第二段中most boys just aren’t patient enough for blogging, uploading photographs, and creating their own websites.可知Jenny认为多数男孩没有足够的耐心,上传照片,并创建自己的网站。故选A.
13. 推理判断题。根据第三段A lot more girls also work on their web pages (32 percent of girls compared with 22 percent of boys). Girls are also ahead of boys in working on websites for other people.第四段When asked what they think about the study that shows girls are more active on the web, they say that they’re not surprised because girls are very creative, and sometimes more creative than boys.可知研究表明女孩写博客，和在网站工作的人数远远超过男孩，因为她们有时比男孩更有创造力。故选D.
14. 推理判断题。根据最后一段Maybe this will change in the future—after all, girls like these will be in the job market before too long.可知作者认为女性只拥有27%的与电脑相关的工作的状况也许这在未来会改变，作者对此充满希望。故选C.
15. 推理判断题。根据第四段girls are more active on the web, sometimes more creative than boys.第五段“Girls from everywhere read our articles, and they ask lots of questions,”和最后一段girls like these will be in the job market before too long.可知女孩在电脑网络方面更积极和有创造性，将来会有越来越多的女孩从事和电脑有关的职业。故选D.

Camberwell College of Arts has one 50m (Olympic sized) pool with a depth of 2m throughout, and one 25m pool with a 1m shallow end and a 4m deep end. Both pools may be used by the general public at certain times.
50m Pool

B
She was sitting up at four months, walking at eight months and completing 100-piece jigsaw puzzles（拼图玩具）at 15 months. So it is no surprise that Abigail Wilson, 15, from Connecticut, USA, recently made history when she became the youngest black girl ever accepted into an American university! “I’m proud of myself for getting in, but I usually find it hard to get excited. It’s pretty cool, I guess,” said Abigail.
Her mother, Nancy, said that Abigail was a quiet baby, born two weeks late on Christmas Day. She didn’t speak her first words until she was 22 months old! Nancy and her husband thought something must be wrong, but when she started to talk, her speech was perfect. She already knew her colours, letters and was able to read. Her parents read her normal bedtime stories and they didn’t know she was learning all of it.
Abigail has always been the youngest person in her class. At six she was in the fourth grade, at ten she took her first high school class in Maths. She has studied several languages, including Spanish, French, Chinese, Russian, Arabic and German.
Abigail says that she doesn’t usually plan when she studies, she calls herself scatterbrained（注意力不集中的）and she always delays（拖延）things up to the last minute. This gives her the motivation to really do something.
In her free time, Abigail plays basketball, surfs the Internet, reads, cooks and hangs out with her friends: they are all 17 and 18.She has also studied music. Her mother says that Abigail’s music lessons helped her to be a normal teen. She believes that Abigail needed to be in a situation where she had to fail in order to learn. “She found playing the piano very difficult, but it made her learn better,” said Nancy. “She can’t always be successful, she won’t be able to learn anything! People always learn more from their failures than from their successes”.
4. Why is it no surprise that Abigail went to university at 15?
A. She was a hard-working girl.
B. She was always ahead of other kids.
C. She was brought up in a special way.
D. She was no different than other black girls.
5. What can we learn about Abigail?
A. She is crazy about sports.
B. She has a gift for language.
C. Her favourite subject is maths.
D. Her success is due to good habits.
6. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A. Abigail has a better education than others.
B. Abigail won’t be a normal girl without music.
C. Nancy didn’t like Abigail when she was a baby.
D. Abigail usually does things when they are emergent.
7. What did Nancy’s words mean?
A. Abigail failed to have a normal life.
B. Abigail needed to learn from failures.
C. Abigail was good at playing the piano.
D. Abigail wanted to always be successful.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. B
【解析】文章讲述了天才女孩Abigail15岁考上大学，并且在语言、运动、音乐、读书、烹调方面都有超人的表现。
5. 推理判断题。根据第三段She has studied several languages, including Spanish, French, Chinese, Russian, Arabic and German. Abigail学过几种语言，包括西班牙语、法语、汉语、俄语、阿拉伯语和德语。由此可知她有学习语言的天赋，故选B.
6. 细节理解题。根据第四段she always delays（拖延）things up to the last minute.可知Abigail总是把事情拖延到最后，事情总是到了最后时刻才去做。故选D.
7. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“She found playing the piano very difficult, but it made her learn better,” said Nancy. “She can’t always be successful, she won’t be able to learn anything! People always learn more from their failures than from their successes”.可知Nancy认为Abigail是在不断的失败中学习，最后成功。她需要经历失败，故选B.

No one thought that the RMS Titanic would sink on its first time at sea. But in 1912, the ship hit an iceberg and sank during the night. No one knew exactly where it had sunk. Even if someone had known, it was 12,500 feet (3.8 km) underwater. To search for the Titanic so deep in the water seemed impossible. But, 73 years later, Dr. Robert Ballard thought he had found a way to go that deep.
In 1985, Ballard set out to find the Titanic. He would use an unmanned submarine（无人驾驶的潜水艇）called Argo. Ballard’s research team controlled it from a ship on the surface. Argo had video cameras and lights on it. This let Ballard see the ocean floor.
Argo searched for signs of the Titanic. For many days and nights, Ballard and his teammates found nothing but sand and sea life. Time was running out. Ballard had only four days left before he had to return his boat. He knew this would be his only chance. Then, Ballard was awakened by one of his men. It was just after one o’clock in the morning. He rushed to the control room. On a screen was the view of one of the Titanic's boilers. They had found it!
Argo took amazing pictures of the ship. Ballard and his teammates found that the huge ship was in pieces. The debris was spread across one square mile (2.6 km2) of the ocean floor. They saw teacups, bottles, shoes, and other belongings（所有物）of the passengers.
During his career, Ballard has made more than 100 trips underwater. He has done much to teach children about the oceans. But, he will always be thought of as the man who found the Titanic.
8. Why was it difficult to find the Titanic?
A. Its size was huge. B. It was deep under the sea.
C. It had been broken into pieces. D. The weather at sea was terrible.
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. The poor life at sea. B. The difficulties in controlling Argo.
C. The causes of the Titanic’s sinking. D. The experience of finding the Titanic.
10. What does the underlined word “debris” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Rocks and sand. B. Dead passengers.
C. Pieces from the Titanic. D. Personal belongings.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Ballard’s life B. Finding the Titanic
C. Underwater trips D. The sinking of the Titanic
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】文章介绍了Ballard和他的团队利用无人潜艇Argo寻找Titanic残骸的过程，结果和重要贡献。
8. 细节理解题。根据第一段No one knew exactly where it had sunk. Even if someone had known, it was 12,500 feet (3.8 km) underwater. To search for the Titanic so deep in the water seemed impossible.可知寻找Titanic残骸很难，因为它可能在水下12,500英尺的深海底，故选B.
9. 推理判断题。根据第三段For many days and nights, Ballard and his teammates found nothing but sand and sea life. Then, Ballard was awakened by one of his men.和 On a screen was the view of one of the Titanic's boilers. They had found it! 等内容可知本段在描述Ballard和他的团队利用无人潜艇Argo寻找Titanic残骸的过程，故选D.
10. 猜测词义题。此处指Ballard和他的队友们发现这艘巨大的船已经支离破碎，残骸散落在一平方英里(2.6平方公里)的海底。“debris”指的是Titanic的残骸，即Pieces from the Titanic.故选C.
11. 主旨大意题。文章第一段介绍寻找Titanic残骸很困难；第二、三两段介绍Ballard和他的团队利用无人潜艇Argo寻找Titanic残骸的过程；第四段介绍发现的Titanic残骸和乘客物品；最后一段写Ballard的重要贡献。Finding the Titanic能概括全文内容，适合作为标题。故选B.
【点睛】
词义猜测题要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境上下文来判断其意义。因此熟练掌握一些猜词技巧是做好这类题的关键。下面结合近几年高考试题，对词义猜测的技巧加以解读。
1.根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测
有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其意义的词或短语，下面接着出现其定义或解释，这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依据。例如：It will be very hard but also very brittle—that is, it will break easily.从后面that is(也就是说)的解释中我们可以了解到brittle 是“脆”的意思。
2.根据同位关系进行猜测
阅读中出现的难词有时后面紧跟一个同位语，对前面的词进行解释，这时可利用同位关系对前面或后面的词义或句意进行猜测。例如：The “Chunnel”, a tunnel(隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete.此句中a tunnel connecting England and France是Chunnel的同位语。因此，The “Chunnel”就是英法之间的海底隧道。
3.根据构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)进行猜测
在英语中，有很多词可以在前面加前缀，在后面加后缀，从而构成一个词，乍看起来，这个词可能是新词，但掌握了一定的构词知识，就不难猜出它的词义。例如：“Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10,” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive and creative in that they built a sense of drama based on a subject.”文中interactive是由前缀inter-(相互的)和active(活动的，活跃的)而构成的，同时根据上下文的意思可以判断，该词的含义应是“互动的”。
4.根据转折或对比关系进行猜测
根据上下句的连接词，如but, however, otherwise等就可以看到前后句在意义上的差别，从而依据某一句的含义，来确定另一句的含义。另外，分号也可以表示转折、对比或不相干的意义。例如：A child’s birthday party doesn’t have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun.从前后两句的意思可以看出，hassle和a basket of fun肯定是近乎相反的意义。所以不难判断hassle的意思是“困难，麻烦”。

Experts say that, among young Internet users, it’s not boys who create most web content. The pioneers of the Internet at the moment are the girls.
According to Jenny Baker, whose hobbies are designing icons（图示）, most boys just aren’t patient enough for blogging, uploading photographs, and creating their own websites. Jenny posts her pictures on her own website, and believes that most boys don’t often have their own sites. She thinks it’s mainly girls.
And Jenny is right. A study shows that, among Internet users aged 12 to 17, a lot more girls blog than boys (35 percent of girls compared with 20 percent of boys). A lot more girls also work on their web pages (32 percent of girls compared with 22 percent of boys). Girls are also ahead of boys in working on websites for other people.
Some girls have their own teenage podcasts（播客）which have become very successful and sometimes the creators have their own TV shows too. When asked what they think about the study that shows girls are more active on the web, they say that they’re not surprised because girls are very creative, and sometimes more creative than boys.
Other girl have started interactive（交流的）e-zines with articles written for girls by girls. “Girls from everywhere read our articles, and they ask lots of questions,” they say. “I think girls like to help other people more.” One expert said: “If boys were more interested in helping other people, the numbers would be different.”
But if girls are more interested in computers, why do women only have 27 percent of computer-related jobs? Maybe this will change in the future—after all, girls like these will be in the job market before too long.
12. Why does Jenny think boys don’t create web content?
A. They are impatient. B. They don’t have their own sites.
C. They are busy with their hobbies. D. They know little about web science.
13. What does the study show?
A. Girls prefer working on websites to blogging.
B. Girls watch more online TV shows than boys.
C. Girls spend most of their online time helping others.
D. Girls are more active in creating their own web business than boys.
14. What is the author’s opinion on the number of women in computer-related jobs?
A. Upset. B. Worried.
C. Hopeful. D. Satisfied.
15. What will probably happen in the future according to the author?
A. Girls will never match boys in computer science.
B. Boys will be more successful in making websites.
C. Less boys will like to read articles written by girls.
D. More and more girls will do computer-related jobs.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】研究表明：女孩在电脑网络方面更积极和有创造性，从事此方面工作的人数比男孩多。
12. 细节理解题。根据第二段中most boys just aren’t patient enough for blogging, uploading photographs, and creating their own websites.可知Jenny认为多数男孩没有足够的耐心,上传照片,并创建自己的网站。故选A.
13. 推理判断题。根据第三段A lot more girls also work on their web pages (32 percent of girls compared with 22 percent of boys). Girls are also ahead of boys in working on websites for other people.第四段When asked what they think about the study that shows girls are more active on the web, they say that they’re not surprised because girls are very creative, and sometimes more creative than boys.可知研究表明女孩写博客，和在网站工作的人数远远超过男孩，因为她们有时比男孩更有创造力。故选D.
14. 推理判断题。根据最后一段Maybe this will change in the future—after all, girls like these will be in the job market before too long.可知作者认为女性只拥有27%的与电脑相关的工作的状况也许这在未来会改变，作者对此充满希望。故选C.
15. 推理判断题。根据第四段girls are more active on the web, sometimes more creative than boys.第五段“Girls from everywhere read our articles, and they ask lots of questions,”和最后一段girls like these will be in the job market before too long.可知女孩在电脑网络方面更积极和有创造性，将来会有越来越多的女孩从事和电脑有关的职业。故选D.
