　　Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving (铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.

　　63. The text is mainly about ______.

　　A. why paving roads reduces our water

　　B. how much we depend on water to live

　　C. why droughts occur more in dry climates

　　D. how human activity affects our water supply

　　Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours (绕行路) in life than by the narrow road toward goals. I like this image. But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.

　　50. What could be the best title for the passage?

　　A. Charm of the Detour

　　B. The Road to Bravery

　　C. Creativity out of Necessity

　　D. Road Trip and Country Life

　　二、细节理解题

　　细节理解题主要考查考生对阅读材料中某一特定细节或文章的主要事实的理解能力。它的设题方式主要有以下两种：

　　1. 以what, who, which, when, where, why, how等特殊疑问句的方式来提问，针对文章中的具体事物、人物、时间、地点、原因(目的)、方式等来设问考查。解这类题时，大家可以带着问题去阅读文章，最后采用“对号入座”的办法，把原文信息跟后面的题目对照，最后确定出正确答案。如:

　　(2024 江苏卷D篇)

　　I say clever because anti-slavery fiction had been the important part of the literature in the years before the Civil War. H. B. Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin is only the most famous example. These early stories dealt directly with slavery. With minor exceptions, Twain planted his attacks on slavery and prejudice into tales that were on the surface about something else entirely. He drew his readers into the argument by drawing them into the story.

　　65. How do Twain’s novels on slavery differ from Stowe’s?

　　A. Twain was more willing to deal with racism.

　　B. Twain’s attack on racism was much less open.

　　C. Twain’s themes seemed to agree with plots.

　　D. Twain was openly concerned with racism.

　　解析：根据文中信息，Stowe的小说正面抨击奴隶制问题，而马克?吐温则通过故事来抨击奴隶制和种族歧视，可见马克?吐温对种族歧视的抨击不那么公开。

　　(2024课标卷I A篇)

　　Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. Take my family’s last vacation. It was my six-year-old son’s winter break from school, and we were heading home form Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York, so I had to get back. But that didn’t mean my husband and my son couldn’t stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.

　　56. Why did Delta give the author’s family credits?

　　A. They took a later flight.

　　B. They had early bookings.

　　C. Their flight had been delayed.

　　D. Their flight had been cancelled.

　　解析：本文为夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述自己的亲身经历来阐明观点，即如何获取金钱的最大利用价值，从而理性消费。利用关键词查询可以在第一段中找到The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day这些相关信息。由该句可知，因为航班超员，航空公司(Delta)以信用卡的形式补偿我们每人400美金，要我们放弃座位，第二天再离开。故选A项(他们乘坐了较晚的航班)。

　　2. 以不完整的句子形式，针对文章的某个细节设题，考查考生对此事实细节的认定和理解能力。如：

　　(2024课标卷I B篇)

　　Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise (同样地) when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.

　　61. Babies are sensitive to the change in ______.

　　A. the size of cards

　　B. the colour of pictures

　　C. the shape of patterns

　　D. the number of objects

　　解析：，When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves可知，，D。

　　三、推理判断题

　　推理判断题主要考查考生对文章的深层理解和挖掘，往往针对作者的态度或观点、文章的隐含意义、 文章的写作目的、 文章的体裁或者出处来设题考查。题干中往往含有一些标志性词语: infer, suggest, imply, conclude等。

　　命题方式一般有：

　　What can we infer from the last paragraph?

　　What does the second paragraph suggest?

　　What attitude does the author of the text have towards …?

　　What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?

　　做推理判断题时，考生要注意挖掘文章的隐含信息，从已知获得未知，而不是凭空臆断。很多文章，尤其是记叙文和议论文，其语境都有一定的褒贬性，这种褒贬性反映了作者的态度、观点及作者的写作意图?？忌θ险嬖亩廖恼虏⒄页龇从秤锞嘲嵝缘墓丶源驶慊蚓渥?，这对我们掌握文章主旨文意、 把握作者观点态度，从而正确地进行逻辑推断大有好处。如：

　　If ichthyosaurs did evolve an anti-decompression means, they clearly did so quickly — and, most strangely, they lost it afterwards. But that is not what Dr Rothschild thinks happened. He suspects it was evolution in other animals that caused the change.

　　A. failed to evolve an anti-decompression means

　　B. gradually developed measures against the bends

　　The CRF’s produce is “green”, made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series — with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆), cheese and other flavors — also does well and is fun to taste.

　　A. The attacks.

　　B. Slavery and prejudice.

　　C. White men.

　　D. The shows.

　　解析： 根据最后两句可知，没有理由认为马克?吐温把这些戏剧看作是代表现实的，而他频繁地抨击奴隶制和偏见表明他清晰的意识，这些戏剧并不能取代现实。they指前文提到的the shows。

　　(2024山东卷 D篇)

　　Just over a quarter of American adults now read news on their cell phones, according to a new report from the Pew Research Center. The survey results being released by the group Monday offer another sign of how people are changing the way they get information. Technology has been reshaping the news business and the way consumers relate to it for more than a decade. The latest shift is being driven by the exploding popularity of phones that can easily access the Internet.

　　The new study found that 26 percent of Americans get news on their phones. Pew doesn’t have comparable data for say, two or three years ago. But evidence of the shift in habits can be seen in this finding: About 43 percent of those under 50 said they are mobile news consumers, compared with 15 percent of older respondents.

　　Still, some things don’t change. Readers’ No. 1 concern when they look for news on their phones: the weather. Of the 37 percent of cell phone owners who said they use the Internet on their phone, 72 percent said they check weather reports. Current events came in second with 68 percent.

　　Pew’s survey offered a wide range of statistics on people’s news habits. It showed people are not relying on one medium. Just shy of 60 percent of respondents get news from both online and offline sources. And 46 percent said they use four to six different types of media on a typical day. The Web is also helping to turn the news into more of a social experience: More than 80 percent of respondents get or receive news via e-mailed links.
