这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了伦敦和爱丁堡之间的夜间火车服务情况,包括座位类型和票价等。
【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容及第一段关键句“Caledonian
Sleeper
is
a
gateway
to
a
world
of
possibilities
with
our
overnight
rail
service
bringing
a
touch
of
the
extraordinary
to
travel
between
London
and
Edinburgh.”可知,文章介绍了伦敦和爱丁堡之间的夜间火车票以及火车服务情况,由此可推断出,本文是在推广火车服务,“A
train
service”意为“火车服务”。故选B项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段下面的表格内容可知,Caledonian
Double,
Club
rooms,
Classic
rooms和Comfort
seats中都有“Wi-Fi”这一项,由此可知,所有持票人均可免费享用Wi-Fi信号。故选A项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据Caledonian
Sleeper
Fixed
Advance部分关键句“Available
for
Club
rooms
(?150/passenger)
and
Classic
rooms
(?100/passenger).”可知,只针对Club
rooms和Classic
rooms提供预付款服务。由此可知,对于Caledonian
Double来说,是不提供预付款服务的。故选C项。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段关键句“If
you
are
travelling
in
a
Caledonian
Double
or
Club
room,
you’re
welcome
to
bring
up
to
2
pets
with
an
additional
fare
as
low
as
?
30
per
room.”可知,如果选择Caledonian
Double和Club
room,是可以携带两只宠物的,但在单程票价上每间房需要最低额外收费30英镑。再根据Caledonian
Sleeper
Fixed
Advance部分关键句“Available
for
Club
rooms
(?150/passenger)
and
Classic
rooms
(?100/passenger).”可知,如果使用预付费服务,Club
rooms最低收费150英镑每人,是单程票价。由此可知,夫妻二人加上两只宠物的单程最低票价是330英镑。题干中“round-trip
fare”询问的是往返票价,也就是660英镑。故选C项。
B
I
was
16
years
old
the
day
I
skipped
school
for
the
first
time.
It
was
easily
done:
Both
my
parents
left
for
work
before
my
school
bus
arrived
on
weekdays,
so
when
it
showed
up
at
my
house
on
that
cold
winter
morning,
I
simply
did
not
get
on.
The
perfect
crime!
And
what
did
I
do
with
myself
on
that
glorious
stolen
day,
with
no
adult
in
charge
and
no
limits
on
my
activities?
Did
I
get
high?
Hit
the
mall
for
a
shoplifting
extravaganza
(狂欢)?
Nope.
I
built
a
warm
fire
in
the
wood
stove,
prepared
a
bowl
of
popcorn,
grabbed
a
blanket,
and
read.
I
was
thrilled
and
transported
by
a
book—it
was
Hemingway’s
The
Sun
Also
Rises—and
I
just
needed
to
be
alone
with
it
for
a
little
while.
I
ached
to
know
what
would
happen
to
Jake
Barnes
and
Lady
Brett
Ashley
and
Robert
Cohn.
I
couldn’t
bear
the
thought
of
sitting
in
a
classroom
taking
another
biology
exam
when
I
could
be
traveling
through
Spain
in
the
1920s
with
a
bunch
of
expatriates
(异乡客).
I
spent
that
day
lost
in
words.
Time
fell
away,
as
the
room
around
me
turned
to
mist,
and
my
role—as
a
daughter,
sister,
teenager,
and
student—in
the
world
no
longer
had
any
meaning.
I
had
accidentally
come
across
the
key
to
perfect
happiness:
I
had
become
completely
absorbed
by
something
I
loved.
Looking
back
on
it
now,
I
can
see
that
some
subtle
things
were
happening
to
my
mind
and
to
my
life
while
I
was
in
that
state
of
absorption.
Hemingway’s
language
was
quietly
braiding
itself
into
my
imagination.
I
was
downloading
information
about
how
to
create
simple
and
elegant
sentences,
a
good
and
solid
plot.
In
other
words,
I
was
learning
how
to
write.
Without
realizing
it,
I
was
hot
on
the
trail
of
my
own
fate.
Writing
now
absorbs
me
the
way
reading
once
did
and
happiness
is
their
generous
side
effect.
5.
Why
did
the
author
skip
school
on
that
day?
A.
Because
her
parents
left
home
early.
B.
Because
it
was
a
cold
winter
morning.
C.
Because
she
was
fascinated
by
a
novel.
D.
Because
she
hated
to
take
the
biology
exam.

C
Anyone
who
commutes
(通勤)
by
car
knows
that
traffic
jams
are
an
unavoidable
part
of
life.
But
humans
are
not
alone
in
facing
potential
backups.
Ants
also
commute—between
their
nest
and
sources
of
food.
The
survival
of
their
colonies
depends
on
doing
this
efficiently.
When
humans
commute,
there’s
a
point
at
which
cars
become
dense
(稠密)
enough
to
slow
down
the
flow
of
traffic,
causing
jam.
Motsch,
a
mathematician
in
Arizona
State
University,
and
his
colleagues
wanted
to
know
if
ants
on
the
move
could
also
get
stuck.
So
they
regulated
traffic
density
by
constructing
bridges
of
various
widths
between
a
colony
of
Argentine
ants
and
a
source
of
food.
Then
they
waited
and
watched.
“The
goal
was
to
try
to
find
out
at
what
point
they
are
going
to
have
a
traffic
jam.”
said
Sebastien
Motsch.
But
it
appears
that
that
never
happened.
They
always
managed
to
avoid
traffic
jam.
The
flow
of
ants
did
increase
at
the
beginning
as
ants
started
to
fill
the
bridge
and
then
levelled
off
at
high
densities.
But
it
never
slowed
down
or
stopped,
even
when
the
bridge
was
nearly
filled
with
ants.
The
researchers
then
took
a
closer
look
at
how
the
behaviour
of
individual
ants
impacted
traffic
as
a
whole.
And
they
found
that
when
ants
sense
overcrowding,
they
adjust
their
speeds
and
avoid
entering
high-density
areas,
which
prevents
jams.
These
behaviours
may
be
promoted
by
pheromones,
chemicals
that
tell
other
ants
where
a
trail
is.
The
ants
also
manage
to
avoid
colliding
(碰撞)
with
each
other
at
high
densities,
which
could
really
slow
them
down.
The
study
is
in
the
journal
eLife.
Can
ants
help
us
solve
our
own
traffic
problems?
Not
likely,
says
Motsch.
That’s
because
when
it
comes
to
getting
from
point
A
to
point
B
as
fast
as
possible,
human
drivers
put
their
own
goals
first.
Individual
ants
have
to
be
more
cooperative
in
order
to
feed
the
colony.
But
the
research
could
be
useful
in
improving
traffic
flow
for
self-driving
cars,
which
can
be
designed
to
be
less
like
selfish
humans—and
more
like
ants.

to?
A.
Surviving.
B.

density
of
the
commuting
ants?

finding
out
the
dense
points.

Through
closer
observation.
C.
By
controlling
the
widths
of
their
path.
D.
By
regulating
their
numbers.
11.

level
off
at

densities.
C.
they
never
stop
or
slow
down
on
the
way.
D.
they
depend
on
their
natural
chemicals
to
adjust
their
speeds.
12.

【解析】
【分析】
本文为议论文。我们生活中常会遇到交通拥挤的现象,蚁群中虽然蚂蚁很多,但是不会导致交通堵塞。本文用事实证明了蚁群可以避开交通堵塞。
【9题详解】
猜测词意题。第二段划线部分“this”的所在语境“Ants
also
commute—between
their
nest
and
sources
of
food.The
survival
of
their
colonies
depends
on
doing
this
efficiently”蚂蚁也在它们的巢穴和食物来源之间往返。蚂蚁的殖民地的生存有效地依赖于“this”,由此可知,蚂蚁要生存就要依赖于“Ants
also
commute”。
可知,this是指蚂蚁的“commuting”,故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段中“they
regulated
traffic
density
by
constructing
bridges
of
various
widths
between
a
colony
of
Argentine
ants
and
a
source
of
food.
Then
they
waited
and
watched.”
因此,他们通过在一群阿根廷蚂蚁群和食物来源之间建造不同宽度的桥梁来调节交通密度,然后等着观察。可推断出,研究人员是通过控制蚁群的路的宽度来控制蚁群的密度的。故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段中“And
they
found
that
when
ants
sense
overcrowding,
they
adjust
their
speeds
and
avoid
entering
high-density
areas,
which
prevents
jams.
These
behaviours
may
be
promoted
by

These
behaviours
may
be
promoted
by
pheromones,
chemicals
that
tell
other
ants
where
a
trail
is.”
他们发现,当蚂蚁感觉到过度拥挤时,它们会调整速度,避免进入高密度区域,从而避免拥堵。这些行为可能是由信息素引起的,信息素是一种化学物质,可以告诉其他蚂蚁路线的位置。可推断出蚂蚁可以避免交通堵塞的主要原因是它们依靠化学物质来调整速度。由此可知,选D。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段提出人类上下班遇到交通堵塞是不可避免的。而蚂蚁也会往返于巢穴与食物源之间。那么蚂蚁遇到交通阻塞也是不可避免的吗?从第三段至倒数第二段研究者用实验证明,蚂蚁不会的,因为蚂蚁可用分泌的信息素通知同伴调整速度,进而避免拥堵现象出现。因此最佳标题应该为B项。故选B。
【点睛】选择标题在英语阅读理解中属于主旨大意题,是一种深层理解题。要求考生在通读全文基础上,认真分析文章大意及作者的写作意图。通常情况下,标题要有根据性,针对性和醒目性的特点。所谓概括性,就是指标题应最大程度上覆盖全文,囊括文章的主要内容,体现文章的主题。针对性就是对标题外延的一种界定,标题要直接指向文章的主要特点。而醒目性是为了吸引了读者的注意,唤起读者对文章阅读的兴趣。
确定最佳标题的方法。在阅读文章时,要注意文章中反复出现的或强调的信息,寻找与文章大多数内容相关的信息。找出覆盖全文的核心词汇。如第4小题属于主旨大意题。文章第一段提出人类上下班遇到交通堵塞是不可避免的。而蚂蚁也会往返于巢穴与食物源之间。那么蚂蚁遇到交通阻塞也是不可避免的吗?从第三段至倒数第二段研究者用实验证明,蚂蚁不会的,因为蚂蚁可用分泌的信息素通知同伴调整速度,进而避免拥堵现象出现。因此最佳标题应该为B项。故选B。

I
personally
think
trains
are
exciting
and
romantic.
I
must
admit
that
trains
are
not
important
means
of
transportation
in
the
US,
but
I
do
have
some
experiences
with
them.
When
I
was
a
child,
growing
up
in
a
small
town
with
very
little
entertainment,
we
used
to
go
to
the
station
to
watch
the
passenger
trains
coming
in.
There
was
something
exciting
about
the
steaming,
roaring
string
of
trains
coming
into
view
around
the
mountains,
slowly
growing
larger
and
louder
and
finally
after
their
stop
crowds
of
strangers
spilling
(漏出)onto
the
platform.
I
took
my
first
train
trip
when
I
was
ten
years
old.
I
went
with
my
elder
sister
to
visit
our
cousins
six
hundred
miles
away.
The
train
—
so
loud
and
violent
on
the
outside
—
was
gentle
and
rocking
inside.
We
were
very
excited,
and
as
that
was
also
our
first
time
away
from
our
parents,
we
felt
somewhat
frightened
too.
However,
because
I
had
expected
so
much,
I
was
a
little
disappointed
when
I
was
finally
one
of
the
passengers
I
had
watched
for
so
long.
As
a
college
student,
I
used
to
ride
an
overnight
train
to
my
roommate's
hometown.
We
could
never
afford
a
sleeper,
so
we
played
cards,
sang,
ate,
read
and
talked
until
we
finally
fell
uncomfortably
asleep
in
the
straight-backed
seats.
My
idea
that
trains
are
romantic
may
come
from
the
fact
that
my
husband
and
I
took
the
train
on
our
honeymoon,
spending
extra
money
to
eat
in
the
dining
car,
and
looking
out
of
the
window
as
the
desert
scenery
slid
past.
Now,
when
I
make
a
trip,
I
always
fly
or
drive,
and
trains
are
not
a
very
important
part
of
my
life.
Still,
every
time
I
hear
the
train
whistle
far
away
on
a
quiet
night,
I
can
always
feel
the
impulse
in
my
heart
to
pack
my
bags
and
jump
on
board,
entering
a
unique
world
of
motions,
sounds,
sights
and
experiences
which
just
aren't
matched
in
the
dull
environment
of
an
airplane.
13.
Why
did
the
author
feel
a
little
disappointed
during
the
first
train
trip?
A.
Because
the
train
was
loud
and
violent.
B.
Because
she
finally
became
a
passenger.
C.
Because
she
had
a
high
expectation.
D.
Because
she
missed
his
parents.
14.
It
can
be
inferred
from
the
passage
that.
A.
the
author's
childhood
memory
of
trains
was
frightening
and
disappointing
B.
the
author
no
longer
makes
a
trip
by
train
now
as
a
result
of
its
dull
environment
C.
the
author
didn't
fall
asleep
until
she
found
straight-backed
seats
with
her
roommate
D.
the
author
thought

mainly
because
of
the
pleasant
moment
with
her

Which
word
best
describes
the
author's

A
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。短文回忆了作者从小喜欢火车,喜欢乘火车之旅。每当作者在安静的夜晚听到火车远处的汽笛声,总是很激动。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“However,
because
I
had
expected
so
much,
I
was
a
little
disappointed
when
I
was
finally
one
of
the
passengers
I
had
watched
for
so
long.”可知,然而,因为我期待的太多,当我终于成为我注视了这么久的乘客之一时,我有点失望。由此可知,为什么作者在第一次乘火车旅行时感到有点失望是因为她有很高的期望。故选C项。
14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“My
idea
that
trains
are
romantic
may
come
from
the
fact
that
my
husband
and
I
took
the
train
on
our
honeymoon,
spending
extra
money
to
eat
in
the
dining
car,
and
looking
out
of
the
window
as
the
desert
scenery
slid
past.”可知,我之所以认为火车很浪漫,可能是因为我丈夫和我在度蜜月时坐火车,花额外的钱在餐车里吃东西,看着窗外沙漠景色徐徐而过。由此判断出,作者认为火车浪漫主要是因为与丈夫的愉快时刻。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Still,
every
time
I
hear
the
train
whistle
far
away
on
a
quiet
night,
I
can
always
feel
the
impulse
in
my
heart
to
pack
my
bags”可知,每当我在安静的夜晚听到火车远处的汽笛声,我总能感受到心中的冲动。由此判断出,“渴望的”最能描述作者听到火车汽笛声时的感受。故选A项。
【16题详解】
主旨大意题。短文回忆了作者从小喜欢火车,喜欢乘火车之旅。每当作者在安静的夜晚听到火车远处的汽笛声,总是很激动。所以短文的最佳标题为“我对火车的热爱”。故选A项。
E
Smartphone
Bans
in
School
Today's
students
all
over
the
world
are
losing
an
hour
a
week
of
productivity
due
to
their
smartphone
activity.
That
is
what
two
researchers
from
the
London
School
of
Economics
are
arguing
with
their
new
study
that
examined
130,000
students
in
91
British
schools
that
employed
various
smartphone-use
policies.
Then,
they
looked
at
how
their
respective
students
performed
in
16-year-olds'
national
exams.
In
what
may
not
come
as
a
surprise
to
some,
researchers
Richard
Murphy
and
Louis-Philippe
Beland
found
that
as
schools'
phone
policies
evolved
since
2001,
with
some
choosing
to
completely
ban
smartphones,
school
test
scores
improved
by
an
average
of
6.4
percent.
The
increase
in
scores
from
underachieving
students
was
even
more
significant
as
they
saw
their
scores
increase
by
an
average
of
14
percent.
“The
results
suggest
that
low-achieving
students
are
more
likely
to
be
distracted
by
the
presence
of
mobile
phones,
while
high
achievers
can
focus
in
the
classroom
regardless
of
the
mobile
phone
policy,"
the
researchers
told
CNN.
"We
found
the
effect
of
banning
phones
for
these
students
was
the
same
as
an
additional
hour
a
week
in
school,
or
increasing
the
school
year
by
five
days."
Professor
Murphy
and
Beland
said
their
study
does
not
mean
that
smartphones
and
other
technology
have
no
place
in
assisting
learning.
“There
are,
however,
potential
drawbacks
to
new
technologies,"
they
told
CNN,
citing
the
temptation
to
text,
play
games
or
chat
on
social
media.
Therefore,
smartphones
will
not
be
completely
out
of
classrooms
anytime
soon.
Smartphone
ownership
among
young
people
and
children
has
skyrocketed
in
the
past
few
years.
Pew
Research
and
the
Berkman
Center
for
Internet
and
Society
at
Harvard
University
reported
that
as
of
2013,
78
percent
of
teens
aged
12
to
17
owned
a
cellphone,
47
percent
of
which
were
smartphones.
The
use
of
smartphones
in
schools
is
a
controversial
topic
Parents
want
to
be
able
to
reach
their
children
while
teachers
complain
about
the
effect
they
have
on
classes.
In
March,
New
York
City
Mayor
Bill
de
Blasio
ended
a
decade-long
city-wide
ban
on
smartphones
in
public
schools
and
left
them
to
make
up
their
own
rules.
But
Murphy
and
Beland
said
the
decision
may
not
have
a
good
result.
“Schools
could
significantly
reduce
the
education
achievement
gap
by
prohibiting
mobile
phone
use
in
schools.
So
by
allowing
phones
in
schools,
New
York
may
unintentionally
increase
the
inequalities
of
outcomes.”
17.
Which
of
the
following
is
TRUE
about
the
research?
A.
It
examined
130,000
underachieving
students.

It
proves
that
smartphones
are
no
good
for
students'
studies.
C.
Smartphone
ownership
among
teens
aged
12
to
17
amounted
to
about
50
percent.
D.
In
schools
with
smartphone
bans,
scores
of
the
underachieving
students
increased
by
14%.

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了目前全世界的学生由于使用手机,会每周耽误一个小时的学习时间,而在一些实施了手机管制政策,甚至是手机禁令的学校里,学生们的成绩都有了明显的
提高。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段,“they
saw
their
scores
increase
by
an
average
of
14
percent”(他们看见他们的分数提高了14%)可知,在有手机禁令的学校里,学生们的分数上升了14%,D项符合原文。故选D。
【18题详解】
词义猜测题。下文提到,“high
achievers
can
focus
in
the
classroom
”(成绩好的学生可以在课堂上集中精力),由此可推出,本句主语提到的
low-achieving
students(成绩差的学生)应该是受到手机的干扰而导致的,所以该动词应该是“受影响,干扰”的意思,D项符合原文。故选D。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Today's
students
all
over
the
world
are
losing
an
hour
a
week
of
productivity
due
to
their
smartphone
activity”(由于使用手机,现在的学生每周都失去了一个小时的学习时间),以及文章第三段,We

was
the
same
as
an

or
increasing
the
school
year
by
five
days(我们发现手机禁令对于这些学生的影响等同于一周多一个小时的学习,或者说一年多五天的学习时间),由此可知,使用的手机的学生则相当于失去了五天的学习时间,B项符合原文。故选B。
【20题详解】
主旨大意题。作者在第一段提出,Today's
students
all
over
the
world
are
losing
an
hour
a
week
of
productivity
due
to
their
smartphone
activity”(由于使用手机,现在的学生每周都失去了一个小时的学习时间),后面第三段又提到在实施手机禁令的学校里,“school
test
scores
improved
by
an
average
of
6.4
percent”,(学校测试成绩平均提高了6.4%),以及“they
saw
their
scores
increase
by
an
average
of
14
percent”(他们看见他们的分数提高了14%),由此可知,目前学生的学习受到手机的影响,而在有手机管控的学校里,学生们的成绩有了进步,所以本文在讲手机禁令对学生的成绩是有益的,A项符合原文。故选A。

-
Use
Your
Brain!
How
does
the
brain
save
new
information?
Think
of
the
last
time
you
looked
up
a
number
in
the
telephone
book
and
dial
it.
Could
you
remember
that
number
five
minutes
later?
Probably
not!
___21___.
Short-term
memory
works
like
a
“holding
area"
for
new
information---that's
where
you
keep
the
phone
number
while
you
dial
it
But
if
you
can
put
the
phone
number
into
long-term
memory,
you'll
remember
that
same
phone
number
next
week.
This
part
of
your
memory
holds
everything
from
irregular
verbs
to
the
names
of
all
your
cousins.
When
you
study,
you
transfer
new
information
into
long-term
memory.
Every
time
we
learn
something
new,
the
structure
of
the
brain
actually
changes,
___22___.
When
there
are
more
connections
to
the
new
information,
it's
easier
to
find
it
again.
Brain
researchers
have
discovered
four
key
points
for
effective
study.
?Make
an
effort.
The
brain
remembers
better
when
we
are
interested
in
the
subject,
already
know
a
little
about
it,
and
know
we
will
need
the
information
in
the
future.
?____23____.
Your
brain
can
process
only
a
limited
amount
of
information
at
one
time,
so
don't
try
to
remember
every
detail.
When
studying
a
textbook,
look
for
titles,
headings
and
illustrations
to
show
you
the
main
ideas.
?___24___.
One
technique
is
to
recite
the
ideas
out
loud
in
your
own
words.
This
is
the
most
powerful
way
to
transfer
information
from
short-term
to
long-term
memory.
Another
method
is
drawing
a
picture
of
the
information,
to
activate
the
visual
part
of
the
brain.
?
Give
the
new
material
time
to
soak
in
(吸收)一your
brain
has
to
build
new
physical
connections.
___25___.
And
cramming
(突击准备考试)the
night
before
a
big
test
doesn't
help.
A.
Make
the
new
brain
connections
stronger
B.
as
we
build
new
connections
to
information
that
we
already
know
C.
but
these
memories
last
just
a
few
seconds
D.
Find
the
most
important
information
and
organize
it
E.
That's
because
it's
in
your
short-term
memory
F.
For
this
reason,
it's
better
to
study
for
several
short
sessions
than
one
long
one
G.
Remember
all
the
small
details
to
really
learn
a
subject.
【答案】21.
E
22.
B
23.
D
24.
A
25.
F
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了大脑如何能更好地学习和记忆新知识,并归纳了四种方法:1.做出努力;2.找到最重要的信息并组织起来;3.加强新的大脑连接。4.
给新知识吸收的时间。
【21题详解】
根据上文“
Could
you
remember
that
number
five
minutes
later?
Probably
not!
(五分钟后你还记得那个号码吗?可能不会吧!)”以及下文“Short-term
memory
works
like
a
“holding
area"
for
new
information…(短期记忆就像是一个新信息的‘储存区’……)”可知,空格处起承上启下的作用,它是对上文为什么五分钟后记不住那个号码的回答,并且根据下文可知这个回答是短期记忆。故空格处的回答应该是“那是因为它在你的短期记忆中”。故选E项。
【22题详解】
根据上文“When
you
study,
you
transfer
new
information
into
long-term
memory.(当你学习时,你把新的信息转移到长期记忆中)”以及下文“When
there
are
more
connections
to
the
new
information,
it's
easier
to
find
it
again.(当新信息有更多的连接时,再找到它就更容易了)”可知,是因为我们对已知的信息建立了新的联系,所以每次我们学习新的东西时,大脑的结构会发生变化。故选B项。
【23题详解】
根据第二段段末“Brain
researchers
have
discovered
four
key
points
for
effective
study.(大脑研究人员发现了有效学习的四个要点)”以及接下来的第一段和最后一段段首分别是一个要点的概括可知,本题空格处也是这四个要点之一,即对本段落内容的概括。根据本段中“Your
brain
can
process
only
a
limited
amount
of
information
at
one
time…(你的大脑一次只能处理有限数量的信息)”以及“...look
for
titles,
headings
and
illustrations
to
show
you
the
main
ideas.(找一些标题、标题和插图来展示你的主要思想)”可知,由于大脑一次工作量有限,我们需要挑选主要且重要的信息来记。即本段阐述的四要点之一为:找到最重要的信息并组织起来。故选D项。
【24题详解】
根据上题解释可知,本题空格处也是这四个要点之一,即对本段落内容的概括。根据本段已给内容可知,将信息从短期记忆转移到长期记忆的最有效方法:一个是用自己的话大声地背诵这些想法,另一个是画出信息的图片,激活大脑的视觉部分。本质上这两种方法都是在强化大脑中信息的联系。故本段阐述的四要点之一为:加强新的大脑连接。故选A项。
【25题详解】
根据上一句“Give
the
new
material
time
to
soak
in(给新知识吸收的时间)”以及下一句“cramming
the
night
before
a
big
test
doesn't
help(在大考前一天晚上突击准备也无济于事)”可知,为给大脑留出充足的时间去吸收领会知识,学习和记忆知识应该分多次少量。即多次短时间学习比一次长时间学习效果更好。故选F项。

第三节语法填空(共10小题,每小题L5分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Why
does
autumn
have
two
names?
According
to
Merriam-Webster,
“autumn”
appeared
first
in
English
in
the
1300s,
coming
from
the
Lation
word
“autumnus”.
“Autumn”
caught
on
quickly,
likely
because
it
replaced
the
____66____
(origin)
name—”harvest”.
As
you
might
imagine,
when
crops
were
collected
from
the
fields,
calling
the
season
“harvest”
might
make
people
____67____
(confuse)
because
“harvest”
is
also
the
name
for
the
act
____68____
(it).
So
“autumn”
appeared
instead
of
“harvest”.
Then
the
term,
“autumn”,
____69____
was
referred
to
the
season
between
summer
and
winter,
lasted
for
a
couple
of
____70____
(century).
“Fall”
as
a
name
for
the
season
came
about
sometime
in
the
1500s,
a
shortened
version
of
the
very
poetic
phrase
for
“the
fall
of
leaves”.
The
English
phrase
had
true
meaning
of
the
season
without
leading
____71____
any
confusion.
Not
even
a
century
later,
the
phrase
became
a
simple
word:
fall.
Around
this
same
time,
the
English
language
was
traveling
across
the
globe
as
Britain
expanded,
and
it
was
____72____
(go)
through
some
changes,
as
many
languages
did.
This
was
____73____
(particular)
true
in
the
American
colonies
(殖民地).
Some
English
words
changed
in
the
US,
whether
in
terms
of
spelling
____74____
in
terms
of
general
usage.
In
the
mid-1800s,
British
and
American
English
speakers
further
developed
in
different
ways
and
“fall”
was
the
common
word
for
“autumn”
in
the
US,
while
autumn
____75____
(regard)
as
the
word
for
fall
in
England.

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。英文中“秋天”有两个名字。文章介绍了这两个名字的由来。
【66题详解】
考查词性转换。句意:“Autumn”很快流行起来,可能是因为它取代了原来的名字“harvest”。根据空后的名词“name”,此处应该填入形容词original“最初的”作定语。故填.
Original。
【67题详解】
考查形容词。句意:你可以想象,当庄稼从地里收割时,把这个季节叫做“收获”可能会让人们感到困惑,因为“收获”也是这个行为本身的名字。形容词confused在此句中修饰人,意为“感到迷惑的”。故填confused。
【68题详解】
考查代词。句意:你可以想象,当庄稼从地里收割时,把这个季节叫做“收获”可能会让人们感到困惑,因为“收获”也是这个行为本身的名字。反身代词itself在此处作“the
act”的同位语。故填itself。
【69题详解】
考查定语从句。此处“autumn”做先行词,指物,关系代词which在此处引导非限定性定语从句,且在从句中作主语,that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。
【70题详解】
考查名词复数。根据空前的a
couple
of“几个”,修饰可数名词复数,故填centuries。
【71题详解】
考查介词。句意:这个英语短语有这个季节的真正含义,没有引起任何混乱。lead
to是固定短语,意为“导致”。故填to。
【72题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:大约在同一时期,随着英国的扩张,英语也在全球范围内传播,和许多其他语言一样,英语也经历了一些变化。根据语境可知,此句应该用过去进行时,故填入现在分词going。
【73题详解】
考查副词。副词particularly在此处修饰形容词“true”。particularly
ture意为“特别真实”。故填particularly。
【74题详解】
考查让步状语从句。根据句意和结构可知,“whether
in
terms
of
spelling
or
in
terms
of
general
usage”意为“无论是在拼写方面,还是是在一般用法方面”。“whether
...
or”意为“无论……还是……”,引导让步状语从句。故填or。
【75题详解】
考查一般过去时态的被动语态。根据上文中的时态,再结合autumn和regard是动宾关系可知,此处应该用一般过去时的被动语态,且主语是autumn,是单数第三人称。故填was
regarded。

As
is
known
to
all,
the
Great
Wall
is
one
of
the
best-known
tourist
attraction
around
the
globe.
Almost
everybody
wants
to
pay
a
visit,
but
I
am
no
exception.
This
summer
vacation,
the
day
I
looked
forward
to
coming
at
last.
I
got
up
and
set
off
on
the
early
morning,
my
brother
Tim
keeping
me
a
company.
After
two
hour's
bus
ride,
we
arrived
at
which
looked
like
a
large
market.
Seen
millions
of
people
talking,
pushing
and
photographing,
I
immediate
lost
my
enthusiasm.
Indeed,
the
Great
Wall
is
really
something
must
be
experienced
with
a
little
care.
【答案】第一句:attraction
→
attractions
第二句:but→and
第三句:coming→came
第四句:on→in;
删掉a
第五句:
hour's
→
hours';
which
→
what
笫六句:Seen
→
Seeing;
immediate
→
immediately
第七句:something后加that
【解析】
分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了作者游览长城的经历。
【详解】第一处:考查固定用法。one
of
+
可数名词复数,该用法是固定用法,表示“……之一”,所以attraction
改成
attractions。
第二处:考查连词。句意:几乎每个人都想去参观,我也不例外。“几乎每个人都想去参观”和“我也不例外”之间是并列关系,用表示并列意义的连词and连接前后两个分句,所以but改成and。
第三处:考查时态。分析句子结构,I
looked
forward
to是一个省略了that的定语从句,修饰前面的先行词the
day,主句的谓语动词是“come”,根据时间状语This
summer
vacation,以及下文的时态,可知这是在描述发生在过去的事情,用一般过去时,所以coming改成came。
第四处:考查介词。表示“在早晨”,应该说in
the
morning,所以on改成in。
第五处:考查固定搭配。keep
sb
company“
陪伴某人”,这是一个固定搭配,所以删掉a。
第六处:考查名词所有格。句意:经过两个小时的车程,我们到达了一个看起来像大市场的地方。hour前有数词two修饰,用名词复数,表示“两个小时的”,应该是two
hours',所以hour's
改成
hours'。
第七处:考查宾语从句。这里含有一个宾语从句,引导词在从句中作主语,表示“一个地方”,所以which
改成
what。
第八处:考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构,“看到”与其逻辑主语“我”之间是主动关系,用现在分词作时间状语,所以Seen
改成
Seeing。
第九处:考查副词。修饰动词lost,用副词,所以immediate
改成
immediately。
第十处:考查定语从句。这里含有一个定语从句,修饰先行词something,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,当先行词是something等不定代词时,只能用that引导该从句,且关系词不能省略,所以something后加that。

I
was
16
years
old
the
day
I
skipped
school
for
the
first
time.
It
was
easily
done:
Both
my
parents
left
for
work
before
my
school
bus
arrived
on
weekdays,
so
when
it
showed
up
at
my
house
on
that
cold
winter
morning,
I
simply
did
not
get
on.
The
perfect
crime!
And
what
did
I
do
with
myself
on
that
glorious
stolen
day,
with
no
adult
in
charge
and
no
limits
on
my
activities?
Did
I
get
high?
Hit
the
mall
for
a
shoplifting
extravaganza
(狂欢)?
Nope.
I
built
a
warm
fire
in
the
wood
stove,
prepared
a
bowl
of
popcorn,
grabbed
a
blanket,
and
read.
I
was
thrilled
and
transported
by
a
book—it
was
Hemingway’s
The
Sun
Also
Rises—and
I
just
needed
to
be
alone
with
it
for
a
little
while.
I
ached
to
know
what
would
happen
to
Jake
Barnes
and
Lady
Brett
Ashley
and
Robert
Cohn.
I
couldn’t
bear
the
thought
of
sitting
in
a
classroom
taking
another
biology
exam
when
I
could
be
traveling
through
Spain
in
the
1920s
with
a
bunch
of
expatriates
(异乡客).
I
spent
that
day
lost
in
words.
Time
fell
away,
as
the
room
around
me
turned
to
mist,
and
my
role—as
a
daughter,
sister,
teenager,
and
student—in
the
world
no
longer
had
any
meaning.
I
had
accidentally
come
across
the
key
to
perfect
happiness:
I
had
become
completely
absorbed
by
something
I
loved.
Looking
back
on
it
now,
I
can
see
that
some
subtle
things
were
happening
to
my
mind
and
to
my
life
while
I
was
in
that
state
of
absorption.
Hemingway’s
language
was
quietly
braiding
itself
into
my
imagination.
I
was
downloading
information
about
how
to
create
simple
and
elegant
sentences,
a
good
and
solid
plot.
In
other
words,
I
was
learning
how
to
write.
Without
realizing
it,
I
was
hot
on
the
trail
of
my
own
fate.
Writing
now
absorbs
me
the
way
reading
once
did
and
happiness
is
their
generous
side
effect.
5.
Why
did
the
author
skip
school
on
that
day?
A.
Because
her
parents
left
home
early.
B.
Because
it
was
a
cold
winter
morning.
C.
Because
she
was
fascinated
by
a
novel.
D.
Because
she
hated
to
take
the
biology
exam.
6.
What
did
the
author
think
is
the
source
of
true
joy?
A.
Reading
by
the
fire.
B.
Travelling
in
Spain.
C.
Breaking
the
regulations.
D.
Being
occupied
by
one’s
passion.
7.
Which
can
best
replace
the
underlined
phrase
“braiding
itself
into”
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.
Entering.
B.
Destroying.
C.
Mending.
D.
Blocking.
8.
What
can
we
infer
from
the
passage?
A.
I
was
tired
of
my
real-life
roles.
B.
I
learnt
how
to
write
on
the
internet.
C.
Hemingway
skipped
school
when
he
was
young.
D.
Becoming
a
writer
was
my
childhood
dream.

Anyone
who
commutes
(通勤)
by
car
knows
that
traffic
jams
are
an
unavoidable
part
of
life.
But
humans
are
not
alone
in
facing
potential
backups.
Ants
also
commute—between
their
nest
and
sources
of
food.
The
survival
of
their
colonies
depends
on
doing
this
efficiently.
When
humans
commute,
there’s
a
point
at
which
cars
become
dense
(稠密)
enough
to
slow
down
the
flow
of
traffic,
causing
jam.
Motsch,
a
mathematician
in
Arizona
State
University,
and
his
colleagues
wanted
to
know
if
ants
on
the
move
could
also
get
stuck.
So
they
regulated
traffic
density
by
constructing
bridges
of
various
widths
between
a
colony
of
Argentine
ants
and
a
source
of
food.
Then
they
waited
and
watched.
“The
goal
was
to
try
to
find
out
at
what
point
they
are
going
to
have
a
traffic
jam.”
said
Sebastien
Motsch.
But
it
appears
that
that
never
happened.
They
always
managed
to
avoid
traffic
jam.
The
flow
of
ants
did
increase
at
the
beginning
as
ants
started
to
fill
the
bridge
and
then
levelled
off
at
high
densities.
But
it
never
slowed
down
or
stopped,
even
when
the
bridge
was
nearly
filled
with
ants.
The
researchers
then
took
a
closer
look
at
how
the
behaviour
of
individual
ants
impacted
traffic
as
a
whole.
And
they
found
that
when
ants
sense
overcrowding,
they
adjust
their
speeds
and
avoid
entering
high-density
areas,
which
prevents
jams.
These
behaviours
may
be
promoted
by
pheromones,
chemicals
that
tell
other
ants
where
a
trail
is.
The
ants
also
manage
to
avoid
colliding
(碰撞)
with
each
other
at
high
densities,
which
could
really
slow
them
down.
The
study
is
in
the
journal
eLife.
Can
ants
help
us
solve
our
own
traffic
problems?
Not
likely,
says
Motsch.
That’s
because
when
it
comes
to
getting
from
point
A
to
point
B
as
fast
as
possible,
human
drivers
put
their
own
goals
first.
Individual
ants
have
to
be
more
cooperative
in
order
to
feed
the
colony.
But
the
research
could
be
useful
in
improving
traffic
flow
for
self-driving
cars,
which
can
be
designed
to
be
less
like
selfish
humans—and
more
like
ants.

density

commuting
ants?

off

I
personally
think
trains
are
exciting
and
romantic.
I
must
admit
that
trains
are
not
important
means
of
transportation
in
the
US,
but
I
do
have
some
experiences
with
them.
When
I
was
a
child,
growing
up
in
a
small
town
with
very
little
entertainment,
we
used
to
go
to
the
station
to
watch
the
passenger
trains
coming
in.
There
was
something
exciting
about
the
steaming,
roaring
string
of
trains
coming
into
view
around
the
mountains,
slowly
growing
larger
and
louder
and
finally
after
their
stop
crowds
of
strangers
spilling
(漏出)onto
the
platform.
I
took
my
first
train
trip
when
I
was
ten
years
old.
I
went
with
my
elder
sister
to
visit
our
cousins
six
hundred
miles
away.
The
train
—
so
loud
and
violent
on
the
outside
—
was
gentle
and
rocking
inside.
We
were
very
excited,
and
as
that
was
also
our
first
time
away
from
our
parents,
we
felt
somewhat
frightened
too.
However,
because
I
had
expected
so
much,
I
was
a
little
disappointed
when
I
was
finally
one
of
the
passengers
I
had
watched
for
so
long.
As
a
college
student,
I
used
to
ride
an
overnight
train
to
my
roommate's
hometown.
We
could
never
afford
a
sleeper,
so
we
played
cards,
sang,
ate,
read
and
talked
until
we
finally
fell
uncomfortably
asleep
in
the
straight-backed
seats.
My
idea
that
trains
are
romantic
may
come
from
the
fact
that
my
husband
and
I
took
the
train
on
our
honeymoon,
spending
extra
money
to
eat
in
the
dining
car,
and
looking
out
of
the
window
as
the
desert
scenery
slid
past.
Now,
when
I
make
a
trip,
I
always
fly
or
drive,
and
trains
are
not
a
very
important
part
of
my
life.
Still,
every
time
I
hear
the
train
whistle
far
away
on
a
quiet
night,
I
can
always
feel
the
impulse
in
my
heart
to
pack
my
bags
and
jump
on
board,
entering
a
unique
world
of
motions,
sounds,
sights
and
experiences
which
just
aren't
matched
in
the
dull
environment
of
an
airplane.
13.
Why
did
the
author
feel
a
little
disappointed
during
the
first
train
trip?
A.
Because
the
train
was
loud
and
violent.
B.
Because
she
finally
became
a
passenger.
C.
Because
she
had
a
high
expectation.
D.
Because
she
missed
his
parents.
14.
It
can
be
inferred
from
the
passage
that.
A.
the
author's
childhood
memory
of
trains
was
frightening
and
disappointing
B.

longer

Smartphone
Bans
in
School
Today's
students
all
over
the
world
are
losing
an
hour
a
week
of
productivity
due
to
their
smartphone
activity.
That
is
what
two
researchers
from
the
London
School
of
Economics
are
arguing
with
their
new
study
that
examined
130,000
students
in
91
British
schools
that
employed
various
smartphone-use
policies.
Then,
they
looked
at
how
their
respective
students
performed
in
16-year-olds'
national
exams.
In
what
may
not
come
as
a
surprise
to
some,
researchers
Richard
Murphy
and
Louis-Philippe
Beland
found
that
as
schools'
phone
policies
evolved
since
2001,
with
some
choosing
to
completely
ban
smartphones,
school
test
scores
improved
by
an
average
of
6.4
percent.
The
increase
in
scores
from
underachieving
students
was
even
more
significant
as
they
saw
their
scores
increase
by
an
average
of
14
percent.
“The
results
suggest
that
low-achieving
students
are
more
likely
to
be
distracted
by
the
presence
of
mobile
phones,
while
high
achievers
can
focus
in
the
classroom
regardless
of
the
mobile
phone
policy,"
the
researchers
told
CNN.
"We
found
the
effect
of
banning
phones
for
these
students
was
the
same
as
an
additional
hour
a
week
in
school,
or
increasing
the
school
year
by
five
days."
Professor
Murphy
and
Beland
said
their
study
does
not
mean
that
smartphones
and
other
technology
have
no
place
in
assisting
learning.
“There
are,
however,
potential
drawbacks
to
new
technologies,"
they
told
CNN,
citing
the
temptation
to
text,
play
games
or
chat
on
social
media.
Therefore,
smartphones
will
not
be
completely
out
of
classrooms
anytime
soon.
Smartphone
ownership
among
young
people
and
children
has
skyrocketed
in
the
past
few
years.
Pew
Research
and
the
Berkman
Center
for
Internet
and
Society
at
Harvard
University
reported
that
as
of
2013,
78
percent
of
teens
aged
12
to
17
owned
a
cellphone,
47
percent
of
which
were
smartphones.
The
use
of
smartphones
in
schools
is
a
controversial
topic.
Parents
want
to
be
able
to
reach
their
children
while
teachers
complain
about
the
effect
they
have
on
classes.
In
March,
New
York
City
Mayor
Bill
de
Blasio
ended
a
decade-long
city-wide
ban
on
smartphones
in
public
schools
and
left
them
to
make
up
their
own
rules.
But
Murphy
and
Beland
said
the
decision
may
not
have
a
good
result.
“Schools
could
significantly
reduce
the
education
achievement
gap
by
prohibiting
mobile
phone
use
in
schools.
So
by
allowing
phones
in
schools,
New
York
may
unintentionally
increase
the
inequalities
of
outcomes.”
17.
Which
of
the
following
is
TRUE
about
the
research?
A.
It
examined
130,000
underachieving
students.
B.
It
proves
that
smartphones
are
no
good
for
students'
studies.
C.
Smartphone
ownership
among
teens
aged
12
to
17
amounted
to
about
50
percent.
D.
In
schools
with
smartphone
bans,
scores
of
the
underachieving
students
increased
by
14%.
18.
Which
could
best
replace
the
underlined
word
“distracted"
in
paragraph
4?
A.
Improved.
B.
Interested.
C.
Assisted.
D.
Affected.
19.
As

as
a

use
students
may.

an
hour
every

percent
D.

What's
the
passage
mainly
about?
A.
Smartphone
bans
in
schools
are
beneficial.
B.
Smartphones
cause
students
many
problems.

Use
Your
Brain!
How
does
the
brain
save
new
information?
Think
of
the
last
time
you
looked
up
a
number
in
the
telephone
book
and
dial
it.
Could
you
remember
that
number
five
minutes
later?
Probably
not!
___21___.
Short-term
memory
works
like
a
“holding
area"
for
new
information---that's
where
you
keep
the
phone
number
while
you
dial
it
But
if
you
can
put
the
phone
number
into
long-term
memory,
you'll
remember
that
same
phone
number
next
week.
This
part
of
your
memory
holds
everything
from
irregular
verbs
to
the
names
of
all
your
cousins.
When
you
study,
you
transfer
new
information
into
long-term
memory.
Every
time
we
learn
something
new,
the
structure
of
the
brain
actually
changes,
___22___.
When
there
are
more
connections
to
the
new
information,
it's
easier
to
find
it
again.
Brain
researchers
have
discovered
four
key
points
for
effective
study.
?Make
an
effort.
The
brain
remembers
better
when
we
are
interested
in
the
subject,
already
know
a
little
about
it,
and
know
we
will
need
the
information
in
the
future.
?____23____.
Your
brain
can
process
only
a
limited
amount
of
information
at
one
time,
so
don't
try
to
remember
every
detail.
When
studying
a
textbook,
look
for
titles,
headings
and
illustrations
to
show
you
the
main
ideas.
?___24___.
One
technique
is
to
recite
the
ideas
out
loud
in
your
own
words.
This
is
the
most
powerful
way
to
transfer
information
from
short-term
to
long-term
memory.
Another
method
is
drawing
a
picture
of
the
information,
to
activate
the
visual
part
of
the
brain.
?
Give
the
new
material
time
to
soak
in
(吸收)一your
brain
has
to
build
new
physical
connections.
___25___.
And
cramming
(突击准备考试)the
night
before
a
big
test
doesn't
help.
A.
Make
the
new
brain
connections
stronger
B.
as
we
build
new
connections
to
information
that
we
already
know
C.
but
these
memories
last
just
a
few
seconds
D.
Find
the
most
important
information
and
organize
it
E.
That's
because
it's
in
your
short-term
memory
F.
For
this
reason,
it's
better
to
study
for
several
short
sessions
than
one
long
one
G.
Remember
all
the
small
details
to
really
learn
a
subject.

第三节语法填空(共10小题,每小题L5分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Why
does
autumn
have
two
names?
According
to
Merriam-Webster,
“autumn”
appeared
first
in
English
in
the
1300s,
coming
from
the
Lation
word
“autumnus”.
“Autumn”
caught
on
quickly,
likely
because
it
replaced
the
____66____
(origin)
name—”harvest”.
As
you
might
imagine,
when
crops
were
collected
from
the
fields,
calling
the
season
“harvest”
might
make
people
____67____
(confuse)
because
“harvest”
is
also
the
name
for
the
act
____68____
(it).
So
“autumn”
appeared
instead
of
“harvest”.
Then
the
term,
“autumn”,
____69____
was
referred
to
the
season
between
summer
and
winter,
lasted
for
a
couple
of
____70____
(century).
“Fall”
as
a
name
for
the
season
came
about
sometime
in
the
1500s,
a
shortened
version
of
the
very
poetic
phrase
for
“the
fall
of
leaves”.
The
English
phrase
had
true
meaning
of
the
season
without
leading
____71____
any
confusion.
Not
even
a
century
later,
the
phrase
became
a
simple
word:
fall.
Around

As
is
known
to
all,
the
Great
Wall
is
one
of
the
best-known
tourist
attraction
around
the
globe.
Almost
everybody
wants
to
pay
a
visit,
but
I
am
no
exception.
This
summer
vacation,
the
day
I
looked
forward
to
coming
at
last.
I
got
up
and
set
off
on
the
early
morning,
my
brother
Tim
keeping
me
a
company.
After
two
hour's
bus
ride,
we
arrived
at
which
looked
like
a
large
market.
Seen
millions
of
people
talking,
pushing
and
photographing,
I
immediate
lost
my
enthusiasm.
Indeed,
the
Great
Wall
is
really
something
must
be
experienced
with
a
little
care.
