39、fe.”可知选D项。2.A 细节理解题。由题干中的food travellers 可将答案定位到第三类旅行者。由该段第一句“Local cuisine plays a big part in thedecision-making process”可知选A项。3.C细节理解题。由题干中 countryside 可将答案定位到第四类旅行者。将四个选项与本段提供的目的地 Lausanne, Valence, Geneva, Essen, Luxembourg, Munich逐一比对，可知选C项。（B）本文讲述了作者不畏艰难，挑战自我，坚持跑完马拉松，实现了一次从自我砥砺到自我认知的人生“长跑”的励志

40、故事。本文告诉人们：只要勇于挑战，拼持进取，人人皆为胜者。4.D 细节理解题。由第一段第二句“Yet，I was determined to goahead.”并结合上句最后的leaving me only two weeks to train可知、作者决心在仅剩的两周训练时间里继续前行，去参加马拉松长跑。其中 determined与选项D中的made up his mind 相吻合。5.B 推理判断题。由第二段最后两句“I didnt do cither well.He later informed me that I was not athletic.”可知，作者提到七年级的第一次上体育课

41、是说明自己跑圈不行，打垒球也不行。这显然表明了作者在运动方面没有天赋，故选B项。6.A 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished！”可知，作者跑完了这次马拉松。故选A项。7.C 主旨大意题。由作者对自己跑马拉松情况的叙述可知，对于一位脚踝有伤、不具有运动天赋的人来说去跑马拉松，所面临的挑战可想而知，但作者不畏艰难，凭着强大的意志力，最后成功跑到终点，显然与C项“一位具有强大意志力的获胜者”相吻合。（C）本文介绍了一项研究成果：如果要减肥，最好的方法是通过饮食干预与充足睡眠相结合。8.A 推理判

42、断题。第一段主要讲的就是有充足的睡眠的人减去的脂肪要比睡眠不足的人多。9.D 推理判断题。从文章第五段可知，在这28天的测试中，平均每人减掉的fat-free mass（不含脂肪的物质）是3.55.38.8磅。10.C 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“Higher ghrelin levelscan.promote maintenance of fat”可知C项正确。11.A 主旨大意题。本文主要阐述的就是睡眠对减肥的影响，因此只能选A项作为标题。（D）本文介绍的是绿色建筑。绿色建筑能最大限度地节约资源，保护环境以及减少污染，为人们提供健康和高效的使用空间。12.A 推理判断题。由第一段第二句“

43、Green building can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories and offices.”可知，绿 色建筑也可以指的是环保型的房子，工厂和办公楼，而第二段首句指出绿色建筑就是要减少 the building所造成的（不良）影响，由此可推断这里的the building就是指普通的建筑，故选A项。13.C细节理解题。由第四段最后一句“Green building are often built on developed land,so that the buildings dont destroy fores

44、ts.” 可知，绿色建筑通常建在已经开发过的土地上，以便不再毁坏森林，选项C正确。其它三项在文章并未提及。14.B 推理判断题。“Its going to be big.”从字面上理解是“它（绿色建筑）将会变大”，文章花了大篇幅讲了绿色建筑的优点，再根据文章最后一句Anyhow所表达的逻辑关系进行推理，从长远来看，绿色建筑具有很大的潜能，在未来将会得到普及和流行，故选B项。15.A 主旨大意题。文章第一段介绍了绿色建筑的概念，接着分段介绍绿色建筑的优点，最后一段介绍其前景，而本文主要谈论的主题是“绿色建筑有助于环保，节能”，即A项“绿色建筑有利于保护环境”。第二节作者围绕提高生活阐述了积极行动

45、的重要性和必要性，同时批判了消极、不思进取和满足现状等负面思想。作者建议读者积极行动，从而使生活能真正有所改变。16. B 由空前“This is my fate. I cannot change it.（这是我的命运，我无法改变。）”和空后“There is no need for you to suffer.（你不必委曲求全。）”的描述可知，故选B项。17. F 由后句“You just dont sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky.（你不能坐等一百万美元从天上掉下来。）”可知，应是“要记住一份耕耘，

46、一份收获”，不要坐等机会，故选F项。18. D 由后句“Dont expect your luck to change, unless you do something about it.（别指望运气会改变，除非你对其有所行动。）”可知，如果你的生活并不如意，不要只说：“总有一天情况会好转的。”，要积极行动，故选D项。19.G 由文中前文的“Of course not！”的描述可知，看到别人陷入麻烦，只是希望和祈祷事情好转起来是没有用的，“你应该尽你所能去解救这个人”，故选G项。20.E 由“So it is with your own life.”可知，此处转到了对自己生活的描述；再由前句“In other words, dont just stand or sit there.”可知，不要袖手旁观，要行动起来改善你的生活，故选E项。10学科网（北京）股份有限公司
