B
When I moved to Senegal in 2007 to work for a charity organization, the first thing I did was to hit the streets. Dakar, the capital, leans out into warm Atlantic wind. It has a relaxing atmosphere that makes it a favorite destination.
Not far from the city center, it also has one of Africa’s biggest slums(贫民区)and its share of beggars. Street kids would tail me, begging. During a previous trip to Senegal, I was once cheated by a man. I'd wondered for years whether to give money to beggars in West Africa.
Near my apartment, I passed a group of young men in wheelchairs whom I took to be beggars. Head down, I walked by them quickly. As the months went by, I'd often come across them. I’d often see them at an outdoor basketball court near my office. They’d sit on the ground with their chairs upside down, tightening and adjusting wheels, waiting until the other guys left so they could play.
I'd stay and watch them warm up. They played with speed, rolling down the court as fast as I could run. A few weeks later I introduced myself to them with the help of Mafall, who was one of the guys and
could speak a little French. I started spending more time with them and eventually became something like an assistant coach.
The players quickly grew on me. I started referring to them as “my guys” to my colleagues. It was the most fun I’d had since I got to Dakar. Life on the street had made my players strong and they didn’t back down easily. I was proud of them.
Toward the end of the season, Mafall invited me to where he lived—found many of the players there, with their wives and children. I learned that most of them were born with disabilities. As Mafall and I chatted, I knew something had changed. They were no longer beggars. They were basketball players, my guys, and my friends.
24. It can be inferred from the text that the disabled young men ________.
A. used to beg in the streets
B. often helped the local charity.
C. were not friendly toward foreigners
D. played basketball as well as normal guys.
25. Why did the writer walk by the young men with head down?
A. To be afraid of being recognized by them.
B. To prevent himself from being stolen.
C. To be afraid of being cheated by them.
D. To be careful enough to find his way home.
26. Why did the author call the disabled young men “my guys”?
A. They often played tricks on the author.
B. They were loved by the author.
C. They used to cheat others when begging.
D. They always quarreled while training.
27. What is the whole text mainly about?
A. The author refused to be cheated by beggars in Dakar.
B. The author helped the locals in Senegal out of poverty.
C. The author coached the young men in Senegal to play basketbal1.
D. The author helped to change some disabled young men in Dakar.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. D
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。

本文讲述的是在达喀尔，作者帮助改变了一些残疾青年男子的故事。

24. 推理判断题。

根据第三段Near my apartment, I passed a group of young men in wheelchairs whom I took to be beggars.可知，从文本中可以推断出残疾的年轻人曾经在街上乞讨。

故选A。

25. 推理判断题。

根据第二段During a previous trip to Senegal, I was once cheated by a man. I'd wondered for years whether to give money to beggars in West Africa.以及第三段Head down, I walked by them quickly.可推知，作者低头从年轻人身边走过是害怕被他们欺骗。

故选C。

26. 推理判断题。

根据倒数第二段The players quickly grew on me. I started referring to them as “my guys” to my colleagues. It was the most fun I’d had since I got to Dakar. Life on the street had made my players strong and they didn’t back down easily. I was proud of them.可知，作者把残疾青年称为“我的人”是因为他们受到了作者的喜爱。

故选B。

27. 主旨大意题。

根据最后一段中I learned that most of them were born with disabilities. As Mafall and
I chatted, I knew something had changed. They were no longer beggars. They were basketball players, my guys, and my friends.可知，本文讲述的是在达喀尔，作者帮助改变了一些残疾青年男子的故事。

故选D。

【点睛】概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。

文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。

本文第4小题，根据最后一段中I learned that most of them were born with disabilities. As Mafall and I chatted, I knew something had changed. They were no longer beggars. They were basketball players, my guys, and my friends.可知，本文讲述的是在达喀尔，作者帮助改变了一些残疾青年男子的故事，从乞丐变为篮球运动员。

C
New rules from the China National Tourism Administration prohibit guides from steering their clients to illegal or immoral activities, such as gambling or drugs.
Guides are also prohibited from forcing clients to shop at businesses during a tour, or to charge extra money against a client’s wishes, through intimidation, restricting a person’s freedom or using physical force. Those who violate the rules will have their licenses revoked(吊销), and income generated through such misbehavior will be confiscated. In addition, violators will be fined between 2,000 and 20,000 yuan($300 to $3,000).
The administration said the quality of tour guides and the services they provide are key to the way the industry is perceived in China and abroad. Through the rules, which will take effect on Jan. 1st, the administration hopes to ensure healthy development of the domestic tourism market.
Mr. Wang, a professor of tourism administration at Beijing International Studies University, said the new rules act as a supplement to existing tourism law. “They elaborate tour guides’ responsibilities and will be very helpful for the national tourism administration in strengthening its governance of this group of professionals,” Wang said.
The 2001 regulations listed some prohibited behaviors, and guides who were found in violation would have points taken away from their annual scores. In 2015 and 2016, many media reports appeared about misbehaving tour guides at popular destinations. Guide services start with 10 points each year. Points are required to maintain a license, so if all 10 are lost, the guide service is shut down.
The new rules describe situations beyond what were in the 2001 regulations, and cover circumstances in which a tour guide would be in violation and punishments are laid out in detail, noting that some of the examples reflect situations that have been reported domestically in recent years. Forced shopping, verbal abuse of clients and even abandoning clients half way through a tour were among the misdeeds.
28. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. A newspaper.
B. A tour guide’s diary.
C. The 2001 regulations.
D. China National Tourism Administration.
29. What does the underlined word “They” in the fourth paragraph refer to?
A. The tourists.
B. The new rules.
C. The tour guides.
D. The 2001 regulations.
30. Which of the following statements about the new rules is true?
A. They will replace the 2001 regulations.
B. They are replacements of the existing tourism law.
C. They cover more detailed description as a supplement.
D. They will act as new tourism standards replacing the old ones.
31. From the passage, we can infer that ________.
A. there will be more misbehaving tour guides
B. many travel agencies will go out of business
C. more misdeeds will appear at popular destinations
D. the domestic tourism market will be more normal
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. D
【解析】本文介绍旅游法的新规定。

新规定是对现行旅游法的补充。

28. 推理判断题。

根据第一段New rules from the China National Tourism Administration prohibit guides from steering their clients to illegal or immoral activities, such as gambling or drugs.可知，这是来自the China National Tourism Administration的旅游新规定，故排除B/D；再根据The 2001 regulations listed some
prohibited behaviors可知，是借鉴了2001年的规则，故排除C，由此推知这篇文章最有可能来自一份报纸。

故选A。

29. 代词指代题。

根据第四段Mr. Wang, a professor of tourism administration at Beijing International Studies University, said the new rules act as a supplement to existing tourism law. （北京外国语大学旅游管理教授王先生说，新规定是对现行旅游法的补充。

）“They elaborate tour guides’ responsibilities and will be very helpful for the national tourism administration in strengthening its governance of this group of professionals,”（它们详细阐述了导游的职责，对国家旅游局加强对这群专业人士的管理非常有帮助）由此推知，they指的是上文提到的new rules（新规则），故选B。

30. 推理判断题。

根据第四段中“They elaborate tour guides’ responsibilities and will be very helpful for the national tourism administration in strengthening its governance of this group of professionals”可知，新规则详细阐述了导游的职责，也就是将更详细的描述作为补充。

故选C。

【点睛】代词指代题要求同学们根据语境的逻辑关系、判断画线的人称代词或指示代词在文章中指代的对象，包括考查it（指动物，无生命的事物、特定的事件或人），they/them(指代人、物、事件的复数名词)，he/she等人称代词的指代意义，以及指示代词this，that，these，those等在文章中的指代意义，考查同学们对文章中叙述特定的人，物，事件的认知能力。

解答这类题时，同学们要认真阅读画线词所在句和前后临近句的内容，分析人称转换和动作变换的详细过程，理清来龙去脉和前后的因果关系，从而准确推断其指代的对象。

本题第3小题，根据they 前一句Mr. Wang, a professor of tourism administration at Beijing International Studies University, said the new rules act as a supplement to existing tourism law.以及they所在句子“They elaborate tour guides’ responsibilities and will be very helpful for the national tourism administration in strengthening its governance of this group of professionals,可知，此处they指的是“旅游新规则”，这份新规则详细阐述了导游的职责。

31. 推理判断题。

根据最后一段中The new rules describe situations beyond what were in the 2001 regulations, and cover circumstances in which a tour guide would be in violation and punishments are laid out in detail, noting that some of the examples reflect situations that have been reported domestically in recent years.（新规则描述的情况超出了2001年的规定，涵盖了导游违规的情况，并详细列出了惩罚措施，并指出其中一些例子反映了近年来在国内报道的情况。

）可知，从这篇文章中，新规则规定更加详细明确，据此可推断出国内旅游市场在新规定下将更加正常。

故选D。

D
Make Up Your Mind to Succeed
Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because
“everyone’s winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”
Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:
A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic –you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.
On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chan ce rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.
We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.
32. What does the author think about the present generation?
A. They don’t do well at school.
B. They are often misunderstood.
C. They are eager to win in sports.
D. They are given too much praise.
33. A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ________.
A. doesn’t want to work hard
B. cares a lot about personal safety
C. cannot share his ideas with others
D. can succeed with the help of teachers
34. What does the growth mind-set believe?
A. Admitting failure is shameful.
B. Talent comes with one’s birth.
C. Scores should be highly valued.
D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.
35. What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study?
A. Encourage them to learn from failures.
B. Prevent them from making mistakes.
C. Guide them in doing little things.
D. Help them grow with praise.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. D 35. A
【解析】本文是一篇科学调查报告。

斯坦福大学教授Dweck经过40年的调查研究认为人们对待失败有两种不同的思维模式，这两种思维模式对我们如何对待失败有很大的影响。

第一种是有固定思维模式的人，他们认为才能是天生的，成功不需要努力而失败是耻辱。

他们逃避未来的困难。

第二种是具有成长思维模式的人，他们认为才能不是天生的，努力和学习使一切成为可能。

向失败学习并把它看作成长的经历。

32. 细节理解题。

根据第一段最后一句As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”可知，这是被过度表扬的一代，故D正确。

33. 细节理解题。

根据第三段The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.可知，他们认为不努力也能成功，故A正确。

34. 推理判断题。

根据文章第四段中的“the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.”可知，成长思维把失败看成是一个机会而不是耻辱。

当面对困难时，它会很快重新思考、改变和重试。

事实上，它享受这种体验。

所以成长心态认为克服困难是令人愉快的。

故D正确。

35. 推理判断题。

根据文章倒数第二段the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again.和文章最后一句“But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.”可推知，根据Dweck的研究，父母应该鼓励孩子从失败中学习，变为成长思维。

故A正确。
