你想过个愉快的暑假吗？英国彼得伯勒的几个景点是你暑假旅游的好去处。

【21题详解】
细节理解题。

根据Saxon Youth Club中的“… try their hand at cooking at Saxon Youth Club”，可知对烹饪感兴趣的话可以去Saxon Youth Club，故应选C项。

”可知符合题意的是A项。

【点睛】文章细节的理解可以细化为：（1）一一对应型。

答案与题目在表达形式和意义上直接吻合，一一对应，一目了然。

如第2小题（2）语言转述型。

这是一类间接事实细节题，答案与题目在意义上从分运用了词义之间的转述关系，即正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的另类表达。

如第3小题。

（3）语意理解型。

这是一类深层事实细节理解题，答案与题目之间存在着一定的逻辑联系，这种联系需要建立在事实的基础上通过上、下文来进行判断、分析、归纳和整合，才能得出正确答案。

（4）是非辨别型。

这是一类综合事实细节题，出题形式常常是“三正一误”(三项正确，只有一项不符合原文内容)或“三误一正”（三项错误，只有一项符合原文内容)。

（5）事实排序型。

这是一类运用多项事实进行排序的事实细节题，要求根据动作发生的先后顺序、时间顺序或者句子之间的逻辑关系，找出时间发生，发展的正确顺序。

如果是一一对应型的细节理解，解答此类试题时，不必通篇细看原文，而应采取“带着问题找答案”的方法，先从问题中抓住关键性词语（题眼），然后以此为线索，运用略读及查读的
技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的：段落、语句，仔细品味，对照比较，确定答案。

如第2小题问题是“You want to watch the new play with your parents,”只要带着这个问题就可找到Houghton Mill中的“…Adult£10. Child£7. Family£20.”,可知一家人需要20英镑。

应选D项。

而第3小题，带着问题“needs parents' company”就可在最后一段中的“Suitable for children aged four and above, each child should be accompanied by an adult…”，其中的each child should be accompanied by an adult就是对“needs parents' company”的转述，可知“适合四岁以上儿童，每名儿童应由成人陪同。

”
B
I grew up with a group of pets. As a mother, I was determined to provide my daughter with the same joyful experiences. Indeed, by the time my daughter was in elementary school, our house was known as "the neighborhood zoo". Now that she is a teenager, we've reduced the number of animals in our home, but we still live with two dogs.
I can't imagine life without them.
Regardless, I have become increasingly uncomfortable with the word "pet". When I came upon the conclusion by the University of Tennessee zoologist Gordon Burghardt that the best we can do for pets is a life of "controlled deprivation (剥夺)", I wished I had never bought Lizzy, our leopard gecko(豹纹守宫). I felt a pit in my stomach when I learned that Lizzy' s constant clawing at the glass wall of her tank was most likely a signal of stress. It is perhaps not surprising that she died after only two years, despite our efforts to give proper care.
The problems with the various small creatures we put into cages and tanks are relatively clear-cut. More challenging moral questions, in my view, arise in relation to our closest furry friends: dogs and cats. Unlike animals that must spend their entire life in a cage or that must struggle to adapt to a human environment, most cats and dogs have it pretty good. Yet it is likely that our dogs and cats may be suffering in ways we don't readily see, because even the most well-meaning owner doesn't always provide what an animal needs.
It may be hard to recognize the harmful aspects of pet keeping when all we hear is how beloved pets are and how happy they are to be in our company. Advertisements showing golden-haired children playing with golden-haired puppies and YouTube videos
of cats doing funny things make pet keeping look ever so precious.
Yet if we really care about animals, we ought to know animals are not toys —they are living, breathing, feeling creatures.
24. What does the underlined part "the neighborhood zoo" in Paragraph 1
imply?
A. The author is a pet lover.
B. The author is a regular zoo-goer.
C. The author' s daughter is a zoo keeper.
D. The author' s neighborhood is rich in animals.
25. How did the author feel about Lizzy?
A. Worried.
B. Curious.
C. Guilty.
D. Annoyed.
26. What is the main problem with pet dogs and cats?
A. They can' t adapt to human life.
B. Their needs are easier to ignore.
C. They suffer a lot from ill-treatment.
D. Their owners fail to accompany them.
27. Which of the following statements is True?
A. My daughter grew up with a group of pets until adulthood.
B. According to Gordon Burghardt, we should try our best to give pets a life of "controlled deprivation (剥夺)".
C. Most cats and dogs spend their entire life in a cage just like other animals.
D. What the media did makes it hard for us to recognize the harmful aspects of pet keeping.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. D
【解析】
本文为议论文。

随着人们生活水平的不断提高，饲养宠物的人越来越多。

我们认为我们给这些动物提供了舒服的生活条件，给了它们足够的关爱，但事实果真如此吗？
【24题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第一段中的I grew up with a group of pets. 和 I can't imagine life
without them.可知，作者非常喜欢饲养宠物。

故选A项。

【25题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第二段中的I have become increasingly uncomfortable with the word "pet". 及I felt a pit in my stomach when I learned that Lizzy' s constant clawing at the glass wall of her tank was most likely a signal of stress. It is perhaps not surprising that she died after only two years,可知，作者根据研究结论得出自己养殖的豹纹守宫不停地用爪子扒拉鱼缸壁是有压力的表现，所以当这只可怜的小动物仅活了两年就死去时，作者应该是感到愧疚和自责的。

分析选项可知C项符合题意。

【26题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第三段中的More challenging moral questions, in my view, arise in relation to our closest furry friends: dogs and cats. Unlike animals that must spend their entire life in a cage or that must struggle to adapt to a human environment, most cats and dogs have it pretty good. Yet it is likely that our dogs and cats may be suffering in ways we don't readily see, 可知，相比较于其他宠物，猫、狗似乎生活的比较好，但这恰恰是更让人们容易忽略它们的需求。

分析选项可知B项符合题意，故选B 项。

【27题详解】
推理判断题。

倒数第二段内容：当我们听到的这些宠物是多么受人爱护，他们在我们的陪伴下是多么幸福时，可能很难认识到养宠物的有害方面，和金发小狗玩的金发小孩广告和YouTube视频中猫做有趣的事情让养宠物看起来非常珍贵。

本段中用的词“all we hear”和” Advertisements广告”及“YouTube videos”这些都是media（媒体）。

分析可知，D项符合题意，故选D项。

C
People with bigger brains tend to score higher on standardized tests of intelligence, according to new study findings.
However, the study author Dr. Michael A.McDaniel of the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond emphasized that these findings represent a general trend, and people with small heads should not automatically believe they are less intelligent. For instance, Albert Einstein's brain was "not particularly large", McDaniel noted." There's some relationship between brain size and intelligence on the average, but
there's plenty of room for exceptions," he said.
Interest in the relationship between brain size and intelligence grew in the1830s, when German anatomist(解剖学家) Frederich Tiedmann wrote that he believed there was "an unquestionable connection between the size of the brain and the mental energy displayed by the individual man". Since that statement, scientists have conducted numerous studies to determine if Tiedmann's assertion was correct. Most studies have looked into the link between head size and intelligence. More recently, however, researchers have published additional studies on brain size and intelligence, measured using MRI scan(核磁共振成像扫描).
For his study, McDaniel analyzed more than 20 studies that looked into the relationship between brain size and intelligence in a total of 1,530 people. The studies showed that on the average, people with larger brain volume tended to be more intelligent. The relationship between brain volume and intelligence was stronger in women than men, and in adults than in children. McDaniel notes in the journal Intelligence.
McDaniel is not sure why the relationship was stronger for adults and women. "Other research has shown that women, on the average, tend to have smaller brains than men, but score just as well—if not higher—in tests of intelligence," he said.
McDaniel insisted that the relationship between brain size and intelligence is not a "perfect" one. "One can certainly find lots of examples of smaller-sized people who are highly intelligent," he said, "But, on the average, the relationship holds."
28. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. MRI scans are applied to intelligence.
B. On the average, a bigger brain means higher IQ.
C. Dr McDaniel did well in his intelligence study.
D. Scientists are interested in Tiedmann's idea.
29. By mentioning Albert Einstein, the writer wants to show ________.
A. Albert Einstein was intelligent
B. the result of intelligence test was false
C. being hard working is more important than intelligence
D. brain size doesn't necessarily decide the level of intelligence
30. After Frederich Tiedmann wrote his article, ________ .
A. many scientists agreed with him
B. numerous studies have failed to prove his idea
C. MRI scan became popularly used
D. lots of researchers were interested in the connections between head size and intelligence
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. D

一项新的研究发现，大脑大在智力测试时智商也高。

然而该研究的作者认为大脑大小和智力之间有一定的关系，这是一般情况，但是也有很多例外。

本文用科学证明了大脑的大小未必决定你的智力。

【28题详解】
主旨大意题。

根据第一段People with bigger brains tend to score higher on standardized tests of intelligence, according to new study findings.可知，一项新的研究发现，头脑大的人在智力测试中的成绩越高。

接着下面用实验来证明它。

最终证明：一般来说，大脑大小和智力之间有一定的关系，但是也有很多例外。

分析选项可知B项符合题意，故选B项。

【29题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第二段的内容可知，研究者发现艾伯特·爱因斯坦的大脑“并不特别大”，麦克丹尼尔指出，“一般来说，大脑大小和智力之间有一定的关系，但是也有很多例外，”由此可推断出用爱因斯坦做例子是为了说明“大脑的大小未必决定你的智力”。

分析选项可知D项符合题意。

【30题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第三段的内容：19世纪30年代，当德国解剖学家Frederich Tiedman提出“大脑的大小和个人所表现出的精神能量之间存在着不容置疑的联系时，对大脑大小和智力之间的关系产生了兴趣”。

自那次声明以来，科学家们进行了大量的研究来确定Tiedmann的说法是否正确。

大多数研究都研究了头部大小和智力之间的联系。

由此可知，D项符合题意，
【点睛】推理判断中最常用的策略是根据事实细节，推断合理信息。

推理题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，作出一定判断和推论，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。

推理题所涉及的内容可能是文中某一句话，也可是某几句话，但做题的指导思想都是以文字信息为依据，既不能做出在原文中找不到文字根据的推理，也不能根据表面文字信息做多步推理。

也就是说，要做到判断有据, 推论有理, 忠实原文。

切忌用自己的观点代替作者的本意，切忌片面思考，得出片面结论。

如第2小题，用爱因斯坦的大脑“并不特别大”，但却是一个聪明人来证明：一般来说，大脑大小和智力之间有一定的关系，但是也有很多例外。

由此可推断出用爱因斯坦做例子是为了说明“大脑的大小未必决定你的智力”。

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

Tests can be stressful even for the best students. ____31____ Fortunately, there are several steps you can take to make your stress much more manageable.
Get Enough Sleep
Getting 6 hours of sleep or less can put you into what's called a sleep deficit(不足),which makes you less sharp mentally and prevents you from performing properly on tests. ____32____ This way, you needn't stay up for the test and can get a good night of sleep before your big day.
Study Smarter
___33___ Make a list of the most important things you need to learn and hit the items at the top of the list first. This will ensure they're mostly covered if you run out of time.
