站。）可知，訂票日期截止到2022年12月31日，所以2023年不能預定團體票。故選D項。【3題詳解】推理判斷題。根據文章標題“WITHANEXPERIENCEDTOURMANAGERTHROUGHOUTTOUR”（和有經驗的導游經理到處旅行）可知，文章應該是來自報紙的旅游專欄。故選A項。BOnMarch25,2010,KateandDavidOggheardthewordseveryparentfeargreatly:Theirnewbornwasn’tgoingtomakeit.Theirtwins—agirlandaboy—wereborntwominutesapartand14weekspremature,weighingjustovertwopoundseach.Doctorshadtriedtosavetheboyfor20minutesbutsawnoimprovement.Hisheartbeatwasnearlygone,andhe’dstoppedbreathing.“Isawhimbreath,butthedoctorsaiditwasnouse,”KatetoldtheDailyMail.“Iknowitsoundsstupid,butifhewasstillbreathing,thatwasasignoflife.Iwasn’tgoingtogiveupeasily.”Still,theSydneycoupleknewthiswaslikelygoodbye.Inanefforttocherishherlastminuteswiththetinyboy,Kateaskedtoholdhim.“Iwantedtomeethim,andforhimtoknowus,”KatetoldToday.“We’dresignedourselvestothefactthatweweregoingtolosehim,andwewerejusttryingtomakethemostofthoselast,preciousmoments.”Kateunwrappedtheboy,whomthecouplehadalreadynamedJamie,fromhishospitalblanketandorderedDavidtojointheminbed.Thefirst-timeparentswantedtheirsontobeaswarmaspossibleandhopedtheskin-to-skincontactwouldimprovehiscondition.Theyalsotalkedtohim.“Weweretryingtoenticehimtostay,”KatetoldtheDailyMail.“Weexplainedhisnameandthathehadatwinthathehadtolookoutforandhowhardwehadtriedtohavehim.”Thensomethingmiraculoushappened.Jamiegaspedagain—andthenhestartedbreathing.Finally,thecouple’slostboyhadmadeit.Eightyearslater,Jamieandhissister,Emily,arehappyandhealthy.TheOggsonlyrecentlytoldthekidsthestoryoftheirbirth.“Emilyburstintotears,”Katesaid.“Shewasreallyupset,andshekepthuggingJamie.Thiswholeexperiencemakesyoucherishthemmore.”4.Inthepassage,whichofthefollowingistrue?AKategavebirthtotwinsafteronly14weeksofpregnancyin2010.B.Neitherofthetwinsweighedmorethan3poundseachwhentheywereborn.C.Theboyhadnoheartbeatwhenhewasborn.D.Twominutesafterthetwinswereborn,theparentsheardtheboywasn’tgoingtomakeit.5.Theunderlinedword“entice”inthesixthparagraphrefersto________.A.attractB.orderC.inviteD.beg6.Itcanbeinferredfromthetextthat________.A.thedoctorsweretiredofsavingtheboy.B.hearingthesadnews,thecouplefeltsohopeless.C.Jamiecamebacktolifeandgrewuphealthily.D.Emilywassohappyaftersheheardthestory.7.Whichmightbethebesttitleforthepassage?A.Life-GivingTouchB.TheBoyWhoLivedC.PowerofParents’LoveD.AMedicalMiracle【答案】4.B5.A6.C7.A【解析】【導語】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了Kate和David的雙胞胎孩子早產，其中男孩生命垂危，醫生都放棄了治療。但是Kate和David沒有放棄，他們試圖用肌膚接觸溫暖孩子，和他說話，奇跡終于出現了，奄奄一息的男孩奇跡般地活了下來。【4題詳解】細節理解題。根據第一段中的“Theirtwins—agirlandaboy—wereborntwominutesapartand14weekspremature,weighingjustovertwopoundseach.(他們的雙胞胎——一個女孩和一個男孩，出生時間相隔兩分鐘，早產14周，體重僅超過兩磅)”可知，這對雙胞胎出生時體重都不超過3磅。故選B。【5題詳解】詞句猜測題。根據劃線詞下文“Weexplainedhisnameandthathehadatwinthathehadtolookoutforandhowhardwehadtriedtohavehim.(我們解釋了他的名字，他有一個雙胞胎兄弟，他必須要照顧，我們為了他付出了很多努力)”可知，Kate和David沒有放棄，試圖吸引他留下來。由此可知，劃線詞entice與attract“吸引”意思接近。故選A。【6題詳解】推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段中的“Thensomethingmiraculoushappened.Jamiegaspedagain—andthenhestartedbreathing.(然后奇跡發生了。杰米又喘了一口氣——然后他開始呼吸了)”和最后一段中的“Eightyearslater,Jamieandhissister,Emily,arehappyandhealthy.TheOggsonlyrecentlytoldthekidsthestoryoftheirbirth.(八年后，杰米和他的妹妹艾米麗健康快樂。奧格夫婦最近才告訴孩子們他們出生的故事)”可推知，杰米活過來了，健康地長大了。故選C。【7題詳解】主旨大意題。根據第五段中的“Thefirst-timeparentswantedtheirsontobeaswarmaspossibleandhopedtheskin-to-skincontactwouldimprovehiscondition.(初為父母的他們希望他們的兒子盡可能地溫暖，并希望通過皮膚接觸可以改善他的狀況)”和倒數第二段“Thensomethingmiraculoushappened.Jamiegaspedagain—andthenhestartedbreathing.Finally,thecouple’slostboyhadmadeit.(然后奇跡發生了。杰米又喘了一口氣——然后他開始呼吸了。最后，這對夫婦快要失去了的孩子成功了)”可知，這對夫婦與孩子的肢體接觸讓孩子活了下來。由此可知，Life-givingTouch(賦予生命的觸摸)適合作本文最佳標題。故選A。CAttheendofthe1985film“BacktotheFuture.”DocBrownswoopsinfromthefuturetopickuphispartnerinaDe-Loreanfueledbytrash.In2022trash-poweredvehiclesstillsoundlikesciencefiction,butatechnologyrevolutionmaybeturningthemintoareality.Hiddenamongthecarefullystriated(條紋)layersofwasteatthelocallandfillisapotentenergysource:methanegas.Whenitisn’ttransformedintosomethingelse,methaneisanextremelystrongpollutant,82timesaspowerfulascarbondioxide.Inalessonabouthowtheenergytransitionislikelytoplayout,landfilloperators’abilitytomakeuseofexcessgashasexplodedinrecentyears.Newfacilitiesarebeingcreatedtoconvert(轉化)trashintorenewablenaturalgas(RNG).Thepotentialhasspurred(刺激)majorsanitationandenergycompaniestobreakintothisnewmarket.InOctobertheBritishcompanyBPagreedtoacquireArchaeaEnergy,acompanythatdesigns,buildsandoperatesRNGplantsintheU.S.toconvertwasteemissions.Archaeaproduces6,000oil-equivalentbarrels(油桶當量)adaythrough13RNGfacilitieswithplanstoconstruct88moretoserverisingdemand.Ouronlyinputistrash.Archaeasellslargelytovoluntarybuyerswhowishtolockincleangasatfairprices.RNGstillcomesatahighpricecomparedwithotherfuelsources,butreducingthecostofproducingRNGwillmeanmoreofitisavailabletobuyersonattractiveterms.WeareworkingtolowerthepriceofRNGbycreatingstandardizedandmodular(模塊化的)productionfacilitieswithdecreasedoperatingcosts,higherprocessingefficiency,anduptimeratesthatstartabove90%.Small-scalebreakthroughsingasprocessingenabledustoimprovetheportionofusablenaturalgasrecoveredfromlandfillst

dmoredifficulttosaythan‘I’msick’,butifyourEnglishteacherasksyouwhyyouhaven’tdoneyourhomework(是的，它比“I’msick”說得更長、更難，但是如果你的英語老師問你為什么不做家庭作業)”可知，上文提出了“如果你的英語老師問你為什么不做家庭作業”的情況，由此推知，空處內容應陳述如果你用“I’mfeelingundertheweather”回答時會出現的結果。G項“heorsheismorelikelytoforgiveyouifyousaythatyouwerefeelingthatway(如果你說你有這種感覺，他或她更有可能原諒你)”符合題意，選項中的heorshe指代上文的yourEnglishteacher。故選G。【20題詳解】根據下文“Ifsomeonesaysthistoyou,donottakeoffenceorthinktheyarethreateningyou;instead,theyarejustwishingyouluck.(如果有人這樣對你說，不要生氣，也不要認為他們是在威脅你；相反，他們只是祝你好運)”可知，“breakaleg”這句習語最容易讓人誤解。F項“Thisisperhapsoneofthemostconfusingyetwell-knownEnglishidioms(這可能是最讓人困惑卻又廣為人知的英語習語之一)”符合題意。故選F。第三部分語言運用(共兩節,滿分45分)第一節(共20小題;每小題1.5分,滿分30分)閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。WhenmysonMarkwaseightyearsold,histeacher____21____aclassspellingcontest,theprizebeingapizzalunchforthewinnerplusthreefriends.Markwantedtowinthatcontest____22____.Hecouldpractically____23____thepizza,hotwithcheese.In____24____ofthecontest,Markactuallyagreedtoahaircut,and____25____hechangedhismind,Itookhimofftothebarbershop.“Makeitaluckycut,”I____26____barberJoe.“Mark’s____27____inaveryimportantspellingcontestnextweek.”“Well,didyoudoyourhomework?”the____28____asked.“Yeah.”Markreplied.“Doyouhaveconfidence?”barberJoeasked.“Confidence.C-O-N-F-I-D-E-N-C-E.Confidence.Alotofpeoplespellthatone____29____,”Markexplained.“Sure.Youcanspellit,”barberJoe_____30_____.“Butdoyouhaveit?Youhavetohaveconfidenceinyourself,son.It’sawinner’ssecret_____31_____”MarklookedatbarberJoe’sreflectioninthemirror,beingvery_____32_____tomoveonlyhiseyesandnothisheadforfearoflosingapieceofeartobarberJoe’sscissors.“Thesecretweapon,huh?Confidence!”Andwiththat,Mark_____33_____anewmottotohisbagoftricks:ICANWINTHESPELLINGCONTEST!Andhedid.Andthepizzawas_____34_____.AndMarkneverforgotbarberJoe’swords:“Youhavegottohaveconfidencein_____35_____,son.It’sawinner’ssecretweapon.”_____36_____later,aftercreatinghisownfirmand_____37_____himselfasafamousarchitect,Markbeganreceivinginterviewrequests.Duringaninterview,thereporter_____38_____withaquestionthatalmoststumpedMark“You’reconsideredagreatarchitect.Wheneveryonearoundsaysitcan’tbedone,whatmakesyouthinkyoucan_____39_____?”Afterthinkingabit,Markreplied,“_____40_____.It’sawinner’ssecretweapon.”21.A.gave
