根据Besurealwaystoaskthedriverthecostofyourticketashecannotgivechange.可以知道，当你去坐公交车的时候，一定要问问司机票价是多少。故选A。3.根据文中Sin

gapore'spublictransportsystemisoneofthebestintheworld,soyoushouldhavenoproblemfindingyourwayaroundlikealocal.Therea

rethreemainformsofpublictransportthatyouwouldfindinanyothermajorcity－trains,busesandtaxis.可知，在新加坡旅行对游客来说是非常

方便的，故选D。4~7.人们喜欢假日美食，但又怕发胖．本文提出了一些既能享受美食又不会增重的建议．阅读理解解题步骤：首先对原文材料迅速浏览，掌握全文的主旨大意．因为阅读理解题一般没有标题，所以，速读全文，抓住中心

主旨很有必要，在速读的过程中，应尽可能多地捕获信息材料．其次，细读题材，各个击破．掌握全文的大意之后，细细阅读每篇材料后的问题，弄清每题要求后，带着问题，再回到原文中去寻找、捕获有关信息．要善于抓住每段的主题句，阅读时，要有较强的针对性．对于捕获到的信息，要做认真分析，

仔细推敲，理解透彻，只有这样，针对题目要求，才能做到稳、准．1.A．细节理解题：从文章第一、二两段however，areworriedabouttheweightthatcomesalongwiththesedelici

ousfoods．可以得知假期中人们往往吃得多，所以他们担心会带来肥胖问题．故选A．2.B．细节理解题：根据Betternothavehigh-fatfoods．Dishesthatlookoilyorcreamyhavemuch

fatinthem．可知不要吃高脂肪食品．故选B．3.D．细节理解题．根据最后一段Don'tletexercisetakeabreakduringtheholidays．A20-minutewalkafteramealcanhelpburn

offexcess（过多的）calories可知锻炼是阻止你增加体重的必要部分；故选D．4.A．推理判断题．根据全文的描述可知假期过后，很多人体重增加是因为他们没能控制住自己的饮食．从我们的常识也能得出这一点．8~11.【文章大意】这篇文章主要

讲了智能手机对人们的影响。【关键词】smartphone...1.根据Intwoexperimentstheyfoundphonessittingonadeskoreveninapocketorhandbagwouiddistractusersa

ndleadtoworsetestscoresevenwhenitwassetupnottodisturbtestsubjects.可知，故选A。2.根据Theresearchersfoundthatthenegativeeffectofh

avingaphonewithineyeshotwasmuchgreateramongthosewhosaidtheyweredependentontheirsmartphones.可知，故选C。3.根据T

heresearcherssaidtheeffectarisesbecausepartofasmartphoneusers’mindisdevotedtotryingnottothinkaboutdistra

ctionssuchaswhethertheyhaveanymessageswhenthesmartphoneisintheirsight.可知，故选B。4.这是一篇新的发现，可能在新的报道上发现，故选D。12~15.【文章大意】丝绸

之路是古代世界最著名的长途贸易路线，它连接着西方的欧洲和东方的中国。商人们在这条路上赚取巨额利润，但也不是没有风险。本文主要讲述了丝绸之路上的旅行者们所面临的各种艰难险阻。1.词句猜测题。根据Althoughmerchantscouldmakehugeprofitstrave

llingtheroad,itwasnotwithoutrisk.可知，虽然商人可以通过在这条路上旅行赚取巨额利润，但这并非没有风险。“这”指的是“通过在这条路上旅行”，因此，画线词“it”指的是“travellingtheroad”，theroad即theSilkRoad，故选B。2.细节理

解题。根据第三段TheGobiDesert...consistsmainlyofrocky,hardearth.Thisfeaturemadeiteasierfortraderstotravelacross,comparedtosandydeserts可知，戈壁沙漠主要由

坚硬的岩石组成。与其他沙漠相比，这一特性使得商人更容易穿越戈壁沙漠。因此，戈壁沙漠比其他沙漠更容易穿越，是因为它的表面更容易行走，故选A。3.推理判断题。根据第四段reststopswerecreatedalongtheroute,allowingtravelerstorest,eat

anddrink.Theseplacesalsopromotedtheexchangeofgoods,andevenideas,amongstthetravelerswhostoppedthere.可知，沿途设立了

休息站，让旅行者休息、吃喝。这些地方还促进了在那里停留的旅行者之间的商品交换，甚至思想交流。由此推断，戈壁沙漠的休息站被来自不同国家的旅行者共享，故选D。4.主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章各个段落都用了“风险、危险、挑战”等词汇。第一段itwasnotwithoutrisk、第二段theg

reatestdangeroftheSilkRoad、第三段中thebiggestchallengetravelersfaced、第四段anotherdangeroftheSilkRoad以及最后一段itisnotenti

relywithoutitsperils。因此，本文主要讲述的是丝绸之路的旅行者们所面临的各种艰难险阻，故选C。16~20.【文章大意】如果一件事情对于你来说没有任何挑战，那么它将也不能改变你。对此作者给出了几条建议，认为人们不应该局限于现状，应走出舒适圈，挑战自我

。1.根据上文Ifsomethingthatyou'redoingdoesn'tchallengeyou,thenitdoesn'tchangeyou.Weallneedsomenormalstressinourlives,afterall.（如果你正在做的

事情对你没有挑战，那么它也不会改变你。毕竟，我们在生活中都需要一些正常的压力。)和下文Sochallengethefollowinglimits（因此挑战以下限制）可知，设空处和下文形成因果关系，说明要挑战极限的原因。G项：Youcanneverseeanyimprovementifyous

ticktoyourcomfortzone.（如果你坚持在你的舒适区，你永远不会看到任何改善。）符合语境。故选G。2.根据上文Ifyou'reasalesman,andyou'rescaredoftalkingtopeopleper

sonallyoroverthephonenow,insteadofbeingscaredandthinkingyou’llfail,spendatleastfiveminutesadaytopickupthephoneandmakeacall.（如果你是一名销售人员，现在你害怕与人面

对面交谈或打电话，与其害怕和认为自己会失败，不如每天至少花五分钟拿起电话打个电话。）和下文Butdon'tstoponthefirsttry!（但是不要在第一次尝试时就停止）可知，设空处和下文形成转折关系，空处提到可能有

人会挂断电话。B项：Someonemayhanguponyou.（有人可能会挂断你的电话）符合语境。故选B。3.根据上文Makesurethishobbyisnotlinkedtoyourcareer;youhavetorelaxandrelieveyourstres

swhileperformingthis.（确保这个爱好与你的职业无关;在做这个的时候，你必须放松，释放你的压力。）可知，空处与之形成解释说明关系，举例说明具体可以有的爱好。F项：Someexamplesmightbecooking,sewing,paintingandsoon.（一些例子可

能是烹饪，缝纫，绘画等等。）符合语境。故选F。4.根据本段主题句Setasideatleastnineminutesadayforphysicalexercise.（留出至少9分钟每天体育锻炼。）和下文Asimple9-minut

erunaroundyourneighborhoodcandowondersforyourself.（简单的9分钟的跑步可以为你自己创造奇迹。）可知，空处的内容和锻炼的地点有关，不需要太专业的地点。C项：Youdon'tneedtogotothegym.（你不需要去健身房）。符合语境。

故选C。5.根据本段标题Travelandallowyourselftobeinterestedinnewpeople.（去旅行，让自己对陌生人感兴趣。）可知，本段内容和旅行有关。E项：Starttotravelnowand

learntochallengeyourself.（现在就开始旅行，学会挑战自己。）符合语境。故选E。21~35.【文章大意】文章主要描述了通过一次测试老师让学生们明白了，生活中遇到的问题与生活中的其他一切相比是微不足道的。所以老师告诉学生们，应

问题，只有中间一个黑点。A.happy高兴的；B.surprised吃惊的；C.excited激动的；D.sad难过的。根据下文Theteacher(5)thestudents'surprise可知，此处

指学生们是非常惊讶的。故选B。5.句意：老师注意到学生们的惊讶，说：“我想让你们把看到的写下来。”A.forgot忘记；B.remembered记得；C.noticed注意；D.hated憎恨。根据句意并结合选项可知，这里表示老师注意到学生们的惊讶。故选C
