18、指出正是因为作者的误撞入才让她意识到自己住的地方有多么美丽。16A细节理解题。根据文章第一段“When I was 17, I read a magazine article about a museum called the McNay, once the home of a watercolourist named Marian McNay.”可知,Marian McNay是一名水彩画家。故选A。17D细节理解题。根据文章第四段“May I help you?a man asked. No,I said. Were fine.Tour guides got on my nerves. ”可
19、知,导游令作者心烦,作者误认为屋子里的男人是位导游。get on ones nerves意为“让某人心烦”。故选D。18A推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The people in the hall seemed very nosy (爱窥探的), keeping their eyes on me with curiosity. What was their problem?”可推断出,作者当时感到困惑不解。故选A。19D推理判断题。根据全文可知,作者主要在叙述误将一个私人住宅当成McNay博物馆,这才是文章的重心,所以将真正的McNay博物馆的叙述一带而过。故选D。20C推理判断题。根据文章最后
20、一段“Before you came over, I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in.”可知,在作者未造访她家之前,这位女士从未意识到自己住的地方多么美丽,从而可以推断出,人们往往对周围的美视而不见。故选C。BAlbert Einsein said,“Only a life lived for others is worth living.”How does this job offer sound? Youll need to be available on short notice,including late at nig
21、ht and on weekends.You could be asked to do anything from helping at community events to responding to lifethreatening emergencies (sometimes putting your own safety at risk)This job also involves a lot of regular training.Oh,and you wont be paid for any of this.Would you take the job?This job might

31、可知,如果我们致力于第二段所述的“这项工作”,我们每周7天、每天24小时随叫随到。故选B。22D主旨大意题。根据第三段“Across both Australia and America, between a quarter and half of the population volunteer each year in areas including education, sports, health, religion, and social services.”可知,在澳大利亚和美国,许多人致力于志愿服务。故选D。23A推理判断题。根据第四段“Indeed, research show
32、s there are significant mental health benefits coming with volunteering. It can be a means to make new friends, build new skills or try things out of your comfort zone. It can also be a means to help loved ones.”可知,当志愿者既让被帮助人的受益,又让志愿者本人受益,这是一个双赢的局面。故选A。24B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“After her husbands passing, sh

34、definitely worth every minute you put into it.”可知,这篇文章的目的是“鼓励人们做志愿者”。故选A。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Before there was the written word,there was the language of dance.Dance expresses love and hate,joy and sorrow,life and death,and everything else in between._26_We dance from Florida to Alaska,from north to

39、里达跳到阿拉斯加,从北跳到南,从海的这边跳到海的那边”。B项“在美国,舞蹈无处不在。”正好说明了本段的主旨大意。27D空格后句讲“观看他们(跳舞)非常棒”。由这里的代词them可以推知,上文也就是空处句子中一定要有一个复数形式的名词,选项D中有复数名词students,该句意思是“我的那些年纪稍大的学生们说,跳舞使得他们感觉年轻”。故选D。28A本空出现在段首,为段落主旨句。该段讲的是一对年轻的夫妻的故事。他们来学习跳舞之初,情绪低落,但是在他们离开的时候却面带微笑。这其实就是跳舞的益处它可以调节人们的情绪。A项“那我们为什么要跳舞呢?”正好提问了跳舞的原因。故选A。29F根据前句“they
40、arrive at the class in low spirits and they leave with a smile.”可知,他们情绪低落地来到教室,然后带着微笑离开。 所以他们的心情彻底改变了,故选F。30E根据文章前后句可知,此处人称为第一人称,所以E项符合语境,作者结合自己的跳舞经历介绍了跳舞给自己带来的好处。第三部分完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)When twelveyearold John Wilson walked into his chemistry class on a rainy day in late October 1931,he had no w
