36、段主要讲述要相信自己的能力可以提高，故F项“相信你的能力能提高是第一步。” 3选G根据上文中的“But if you have a growth mindset . grow with study and practice.”可知，如果你有成长的心态，认为你的能力可以提高，一项挑战将变成学习和成长的机会你大脑里的联系就会更强并且随着学习和练习而增加。由此可知，空处应是进一步说明有成长心态的人的优势，故G项符合语境。4选C空前一句是说失败很常见，空后两句又举例说明一些名人在成功前遭遇的失败，故C项“每个人都有可能经历失败。”符合语境，衔接上下文。5选E空前一句是说那些经常失败但一直坚持的人会积极

37、应对挑战，故E项“他们学着尝试不同的策略并坚持不懈。”符合语境。Passage 2主要介绍了公共演讲的几个类型以及做好演讲所需注意的事项。1选C从结构上看，第二段首先介绍了公共演讲的三种目的；接下来对这三种目的分别介绍了其对应的演讲类型以及注意事项，空处位于介绍informative speech这种类型之后，应是说明它的注意事项，故C项“不要输入太多的信息”符合语境。2选D本空是段首句。本段讲述了公共演讲的两个注意事项。下文“Aside from it . is quite necessary.”讲的是第二个注意事项：要提前了解观众是谁。接着进一步阐述了注意事项。空后讲的是多加练习对于演讲的

38、好处，由此可推知，空处应是第一个注意事项，并且与空后一句中的“practice”相呼应，故选D。3选A本空是段中句。空前一句是说语言是演讲中需注意的主要方面。空处应是对其进行进一步的说明，关键词是Language，A项中的It可推知指的就是Language，且根据空后的“make it clear to the audience”可知，A项符合语境。4选G本空是段中句。空前讲的是观众期待演讲者能给他们新的有用的东西，故G项“因此，演讲者需要了解如何发表他们的演讲来满足观众的期待。”与空前一句构成逻辑上的因果关系，所以答案选G。5选E本空是段尾句。空前讲的是演讲者可以重申要点，提醒观众所讲的重要

39、事情来结束演讲，空处应是叙述另一种结束方式，故E项符合语境。Passage 3本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了快乐人士所具备的几个习惯。1选D本段主要讲梦想，D选项符合语境。本句中作者用反例“没有梦想的人总是消极的”说明了拥有梦想的重要性。2选F本句对上一句的内容作进一步补充说明。快乐的人善于等待，不论路程有多远，他们知道人生最好的事情总是眷顾有耐心并锲而不舍的人。3选G本句是对上一句的总结，说明努力奋斗是进步的证据，也是快乐人士的生活方式。4选E本句为标题句，总结了本段的主要内容，即快乐人士会把钱花在积累经验上，而不是物质享受上。下文的experiences也是提示。5选B本句承上启下，引出

40、下面的例子说明快乐人士乐于付出。Passage 4 本文是一篇说明文。对新手家长来说，带着孩子去旅游是一件很可怕的事情。诸如你需要有很强的责任感，在旅途中的任何时刻旅行费用可能出乎意料之类的很多事情需要考虑。本文就此给出了一些建议。1选E依据下文的“many parents sometimes lose their kids”可知，该空应该是造成家长丢失孩子的原因，又联系下文中的“Popular tourist destinations are overcrowded, too.”可知E项“机场和火车站通常过于拥挤”符合语境。2选B分析文章结构和空处所在位置可知，本空是该段的主题句。该段谈到，

41、在旅行中鼓励孩子们创建旅行日记、阅读、讲故事、照相等，又结合第二句中的“in order to keep your little ones entertained”可知，这些都是让孩子们娱乐的方式，故选B项。3选D依据本段第二、三句可以推断出，该句的内容也与让孩子们娱乐的方式有关，故D项“棋类游戏也可能是个不错的选择”符合语境，该项中的too与前面的讲故事、照相等相衔接。4选C分析文章结构可知，本空是该段的主题句。该段主要讲了在旅行中要为孩子准备急救箱。故C项“准备一个适合儿童使用的小急救箱”与该段内容相符。5选G上文“Your first trip might not be so excit

42、ing, but with a careful preparation, your family trip will be the most memorable one.”中“with a careful preparation”可对应到G项中“Involve your little ones in the planning”，上句谈到精心准备，G项谈到让孩子们也参与其中，两句构成顺承关系。故选G。Passage 5本文是一篇说明文。作者在文中介绍了两种不同的学习类型主动学习和被动学习，并介绍了它们的区别，让学生了解主动学习是如何进行的，进而养成主动学习的习惯。1选B上文提到通常有主动和被动两

43、种学习方式，下文内容介绍了它们的不同，故B项符合语境，且与最后一段中的“All in all, behaviour of an active learner and a passive one varies greatly.”首尾相呼应。2选G根据行文结构可知，本空概括段落内容，第二段主要讲解不同学习模式中对阅读的不同的处理方式，再结合“set goals and check their understanding . what they have read”可判断，G项“主动学习者带着理解和记忆信息的目的进行阅读”正确。3选F空前内容介绍一种不好的学习方式，空后有转折词“on the oth

44、er hand”，紧接着是主动学习者如何进行阅读，故空前应该是被动学习者的做法，F项符合语境。4选C空前提到“because it means that you are analyzing and absorbing the information”，空后举例说明如何思考及处理信息，C项是前文的释义，且与下文表意一致，符合语境。5选D空前提到“相反，被动学习者阅读和听讲座时能理解大部分内容”，本文一直在对比两种学习方式的不同，故D项“However, that important step of reflecting on it is not taken.”符合题意，选项中的it指代“what is read and heard”。5学科网（北京）股份有限公司
