For many years, Bruce Bexler dreamed of going where no human had gone before. He wanted to cut a path through unexplored lands and discover rare species.
That might sound like an impossible dream, but Bexler turned it into a reality.
In December 2015, he and a team of Australian scientists explored an isolated rainforest on the island of New Guinea. They were the first pe ople to enter the region. “As time was limited, we were dropped in by helicopter. Once we were on the ground, there were no trails anywhere; it was really hard to get around,” Bexler says.
Within minutes of landing, the team spotted a black chicken-like bird with strange orange skin hanging from its neck. The scientists soon determined that the unusual creature was a type of honeyeater — the first new bird species to be sighted on New Guinea in 60 years.
The honeyeater wasn’t the only surprise for the scien tists. They discovered more than 40 previously unknown plant and animal species —13 birds of paradise, 20 frogs, four butterflies, and five palms. “We were like kids in a candy store,” Bexler recalls. “Everywhere we looke d, we saw amazing things we had ne ver seen before.”
The newfound species didn’t shy away from the scientists. Two long-nosed echidnas — primitive egg-laying mammals — let the visitors pick them up and take them back to camp to study them.
Bexler thinks the animals weren’t frightened because they had never seen humans before. “In almost all parts of New Guinea, animals are hunted for food, and because of this, they are very cautious of people,” he explains. “This area gives scientists a place where they can go to study the behaviors of animals that have not yet learned to be afraid
of people.”
Scientists believe the area is probably the largest untouched forest in Asia. Bexler and his team did not have enough time to study the area completely. They hope to return to record more undiscovered s pecies. “We just scratched the surface,” Bexler says. “Anyone who goes there will come back with a mystery.”
4. Which word best describes Bruce Bexler?
A. Modest.
B. Adventurous.
C. Optimistic.
D. Confident.
5. What does Bruce Bexler mean in Paragraph 5 wh en he says the scientists “were like kids in a candy store”?
A. They didn’t have enough food and were hungry.
B. They were very excited about what they saw.
C. They were behaving like naughty children.
D. They knew that if they kept searching, they’d find sugar.
6. Why did some of the animals allow the scientists to pick them up?
A. The scientists seemed to be very friendly.
B. The scientists were good at handling animals.
C. The animals had been well-trained by the local people.
D. The animals had no experience or fear of people.
7. What can we conclude about the area Bruce Bexler explored?
A. The best way to explore the area is by helicopter.
B. The area has not been visited by scientists for many years.
C. The area still contains many plants and animals unknown to science.
D. The locals are unwilling to allow the scientists to enter the deep woods.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. C
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。

文章讲述了Bruce Bexler和一支澳大利亚的科学团队探索了一座人迹罕至的岛屿，在那里发现了许多从未见过的生物。

【4题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第一段“For many years, Bruce Bexler dreamed of going where no human had gone before. He wanted to cut a path through unexplored lands and discover rare species.”可知，Bruce Bexler一直梦想着去人类没有去过的地方，探索一些未知的地方，由此判断出他是一个喜欢冒险的人。

故选B项。

【5题详解】
推理判断题。

根据划线句后一句“Everywhere we looked, we saw amazing things we had never seen before.”可知，在他们所看到的地方都是从未见过的神奇事物，其实就是表达科学家们面对新发现时的兴奋、激动之情。

故选B项。

【6题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第七段第一句“Be xler thinks the animals weren’t frightened because they had never seen humans before.”可知，这些动物们不惧怕人类是因为它们根本没见过人类。

所以为什么动物允许人类把它们带回来是因为这些动物没有接触过人类，不怕人类。

D选项“这些动物没有接触过人类，不怕人类”符合文意。

故选D项。

【7题详解】
推理判断题。

根据最后一段中“They hope to return to record more undiscovered species.”和Bexler所说的“We just scratched the surface”可知，文中科学团队在无人岛屿上发现的物种还只是冰山一角，仍然有许多动植物是未知的。

由此判断出，这个地区仍然有许多科学上未知的动植物。

故选C项。

C
At your next meeting, wait for a pause (停顿) in conversation and try to measure how long it lasts.
Among English speakers, it is probable that it will be a second or two at most. But while this pattern may be universal, our understanding of silence differs greatly across cultures.
What one culture considers a confusing or embarrassing pause may be seen by others as a valuable moment of thought and respect for what the last speaker has said. Research in Dutch (荷兰语) and also in English found that when a silence in conversation lasts four seconds, people start to feel uneasy. However, another study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy with silences of 8.2 seconds—nearly twice as long as in Ame ricans’ meetings.
In Japan, it is recognized that the bes t communication is when you don’t speak at all. It’s already a failure to understand each other by speaking because you’re repairing that failure by using words.
In the US, it may originate from the history of colonial (殖民地的) America as a crossroads of many different races (种族). When you have difference, it’s hard to reach common understanding unless you talk and there’s understandably a kind of anxiety unless people use words to establish a common life. This applies also to some extent to London.
However, when there’s more homogeneity, perhaps it’s easier for some kinds of silence to appear. For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well know.
8. Which of the following people might have the longest silence in conversation?
A. The Dutch
B. The American
C. The English
D. The Japanese
9. What might the Japanese agree with in a conversation?
A. Speaking more gives the upper hand.
B. Speak out what you have in your mind.
C. Great minds think alike without words.
D. The shorter talking silence, the better.
10. What can we learn from the text?
A. A four second silence in conversation is universal.
B. It’s hard for American to reach a common agreement.
C. English speakers are more talkative than Japanese speakers.
D. The closer we and our family are, the easier the silence appears.
11. What does the underlined word “homogeneity” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Similarity
B. Difference
C. Disagreement
D. Misunderstanding
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。

文章讲述了不同文化和语言中，谈话时会让人感到不自在的停顿时间，其长短是存在差异的，表达的意义也是不一样的，文中列举了一些国家和语言作为例证。

【8题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第三段最后一句“However, another study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy with silences of 8.2 seconds”然而，另一项关于商业会议的研究发现，日本人对8.2秒的沉默很满意。

可知日本人交谈时能忍受的停顿时长是最长的。

故选D项。

【9题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第四段“In Japan, it is recognized that the best communication is when you don’t speak at all. It’s already a failure to understand each other by speaking because you’re repairing that failure by using words”可知，
在日本，人们公认最好的交流方式是你根本不说话。

通过说话来理解对方已经是一种失败，因为你在用语言来弥补这种失败。

由此判断出，日本人在谈话中会同意英雄所见略同，无需多言。

故选C项。

【10题详解】
细节理解题。

根据全文最后一句“For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less we ll know.”可知，与熟络的人进行对话，更容易出现沉默不语的情况。

所以我们和家人越亲密，沉默就越容易出现。

故选D项。

【11题详解】
词义猜测题。

根据最后一段中所举例子“For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well know.”可知，亲人、朋友等这些与你比较亲近、相似的人，更容易出现沉默相对的情况。

所以判断出，当有更多的相似之处时，也许更容易出现某种沉默。

所以划线词的意思是“相似”。

故选A项。

【点睛】词义猜测题是阅读理解中常见的一种题型，要求考生准确理解文中某些关键单词或词组的含义，包括对超纲词义的推断以及熟词生义的猜测，需要通过上下文得出其在特定场合的含义。

猜测词义的方法一般有以下几种：1.通过构词法（派生、合成、转化）猜测。

2.通过已有的同义词或反义词猜测，即在上下文找出该生词的其他表示方法，由此推断其含义。

3.通过同位语猜测。

4.通过解释性的词语，如that is，that is to say，in other words等，以及标点符号，如破折号、括号等引出的对该词的解释性词、句猜测。

5.通过具体语境中体现出来的某种关系，如因果关系、转折关系等进行猜测。

第4小题就要用具体语境中的关系来猜测，根据最后一段中所举例子“For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well know.”可知，亲人、朋友等这些与你比较亲近、相似的人，更容易出现沉默相对的情况。

所以判断出，当有更多的相似之处时，也许更容易出现某种沉默。

所以划线词的意思是“相似”。

故选A项。

In the fall of 2017, when Paula Aldridge needed to get a job, she found herself at a crossroads. The 50-year-old wasn’t sure she would ever work again, due to health issues.
But Aldridge’s life and care er journey started to turn around af ter she connected with Goodwill of Central Iowa’s skills (技能) training programs. These programs aim to help people develop the specific, real-world skills they need to get and keep a job, through a combination of detailed teaching and hands-on experience.
When Aldridge first connected with Goodwill in September 2017, she was having trouble finding a job. Transportation was challenging, as she didn’t have a driver’s license or own a car. Aldridge also had a limited work history with long employment gaps (间断) , meaning she missed the chances to learn important skills, such as
working a credit card machine. Besides, her physical health issues were also a problem.
According to Kayleigh Duff, a career specialist at Goodwill of Central Iowa, the biggest difficulty Aldridge had to overcome was from within. “She said outwardly that she had all of this confidence and that she knew how strong a worker she was, but I don’t think she truly believed it herself.”
Thankfully, many people offer Aldridge encouragement and guidance. She first started off in the food service training program but was eager to enter the retail (零售) skills program, since she had worked at the Salvation Army and Subway before. When Aldridge mentioned her interest in retail, Duff recognized that her go-getting attitude would be perfect for the program.
The seven-week retail skills training is a systematic program combining classroom teaching with on- the-job experience at a Goodwill store. As Aldridge graduated from the program, she became more confident in her abilities.
Duff said it was great to see how Aldridge grew into the devoted worker she is today. “She has this strong desire, this longing to succeed. And she knows that she’s able to do that, although she has fallen short in the past.”
12. What can be learned about Goodwill’s training programs?
A. They combine theory with practice.
B. They will surely find a good job for people in the program.
C. They are designed mainly for the unemployed.
D. They were set up in the autumn of 2017.
13. What was the biggest problem Aldridge faced according to Duff?
A. Poor health.
B. Poor working skills.
C. Without enough confidence.
D. Not having a driver’s license.
14. Why did Aldridge change her training program?
A. She wanted to attend a more systematic program.
B. She wanted to get some hands-on experience.
C. She was more interested in retail.
D. She follo wed Duff’s advice.
15. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. A 50-year-old devotes herself to Goodwill.
B. Goodwill helps a 50-year-old turn her life around.
C. Goodwill training programs spring up around the world.
D Success is closely connected to good training programs.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。

文章讲述了50岁的Paula Aldridge通过参加一个技能培训项目成功地再次就业，也找回了自信。

【12题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段最后一句“These programs aim to help people develop the specific, real-world skills they need to get and keep a job, through a combination of detailed teaching and hands-on experience.”可知，这些培训项目是结合了详细的理论教学和实操经验的，与A选项“结合了理论和实践”相符。

故选A项。

【13题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第四段Duff的原话“She said outwardly that she had all of this confidence and that she knew how strong a worker she was, but I don’t think she truly believed it herself”可知，Aldridge表面上对自己的能力很自信，但其实并不是真正这么相信的，也就是说在Duff看来她最大的问题是缺乏自信。

故选C项。

【14题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第五段第二句“She first started off in the food service training program but was eager to enter the retail (零售) skills program”以及“When Aldridge mentioned her interest in retail”可知，正是出于对于零售业的兴趣，她才选择了改变培训项目。

故选C项。

【15题详解】
主旨大意题。

总览全文，主要讲述的就是50岁的Paula Aldridge通过参加Goodwill公司的一个技能培训项目成功地再次就业的故事，B选项“Goodwill帮助一个50岁的人改变了生活”为短文的主旨大意。

故选B 项。

【点睛】细节理解题是阅读理解中最常见的题型，考生需要清楚，文章中心是论点，事实细节就是论据或主要理由，细节理解题就是有关文章细节的问题，常对文中某个词语、句子、段落的细节及事实进行提问，所提问题一般可直接或间接在文章中找到答案。

常用且比较稳妥的方法是排除干扰项，细节理解题中的干扰项一般分为范围过大或过小、偷换概念、正误并存等类型，可逐句在文中寻找根据加以甄别。

第1小题中，B选项表达担保培训结果和C选项指出培训对象，在文中都是没有提及的，而D选项提到的时间点其实是主人公联系到Goodwill公司的时间，属于张冠李戴，这样通过排除也可以得出正确答案。

根据第二段最后一句“These programs aim to help people develop the specific, real-world skills they need to get and keep a job, through a combination of detailed teaching and hands-on experience.”可知，这些培训项目是结合了详细的理论教学和实操经验的，与A选项“结合了理论和实践”相符。

故选A项。

故选A项。

【点睛】七选五题型主要考查考生对文章的整体理解和掌握情况，相当于阅读理解和完形填空的综合。

它不仅需要阅读速度，还要对文章的结构、主旨、写作意图、观点都有所了解。

主要考点包括：1.考查主题句，也就是考查对文章整体内容的概括能力；2考查上下文衔接，即考查文章的过渡部分；3考查中心句，需要考生学会归纳段落大意。

拿到题目时，应该先确定出题位置；读题干，再读需要填入句子的上下句，画出关键词；读文章各段落，确定段落中心句和文章主题句；通读文章确定上下句和选项之间的逻辑关系。

针对不同设空位置选择不同的策略就能事半功倍。

第5小题就是缺少主题句的设空类型，这时要理清文段大意，在此基础上提炼出中心思想：心态对于睡眠的影响很大。

继而在选项中对应找到最符合这一主题的一项，即为正确答案。
