13、ians who had spent a long day cleaning up the polluted beaches of the continents northern coast.

The Rangers are of more than 100 Indigenous groups spread across Australia who ha
14、ve taken on the job of protecting the land of their forefathers. In Arnhem Land, they are the protectors of 3,300 square miles of land and sea. They comb the beaches by hand, picking up as much rubbish as possible. The task is very difficult as each day it delivers waves of new rubbish. For the Rang
15、ers, cleaning the beaches is more than a vacation. For a people whose culture is strongly tied to the land, protecting the environment is equal to preserving their history. However, colonization forcefully broke their connection to the land generations ago. Indigenous people were displaced and their
16、 cultural practices outlawed. Tens of thousands of years of traditional land management ended, and as a result many parts of the country now face serious disasters from invasive plant and animal species, bush fires and land mismanagement. In recent years, the government has restored more than 20 per
17、cent of Australias land to Indigenous owners. Since 2007,the Indigenous Rangers Organizations have been at work protecting this land. Luck, one of the few non- Indigenous employees working with the Rangers, said the combination of old and new techniques and an appreciation for the culture of Indigen
18、ous workers has been critical to the programs success. “You are working with staff who see the world different to you, so there is a much higher focus on the cultural aspects of work and life,” he said. “Being a ranger is a source of confidence.

22、的文化。 少数非土著人也与 Rangers 一起工作在一起来保护他们的文化。 4C 细节理解题。由第一段“ Soon they would be eating freshly caught fish and seafood cooked under the stars on an open fire, as their ancestors did.”可知,他们像他们的祖先一样,在星空下吃着篝 火煮熟的新鲜的鱼和海鲜。所以澳大利亚土著居民过去过着以捕鱼和打捞海鲜为主的生活。 故 C 选项正确。 5D 细节理解题。由第三段“For a people whose culture is strongl
23、y tied to the land, protecting the environment is equal to preserving their history”可知, 对于一个文化与土地紧密相连的民族来说, 保护环境就等于保护他们的历史。所以 Rangers 认为清理海滩就是保护他们的文化。故 D 选 项正确。 6A 细节理解题。由第四段“Tens of thousands of years of traditional land management ended, and as a result many parts of the country now face serious d
24、isasters from invasive plant and animal species, bush fires and land mismanagement.”可知,成千上万年的传统的土地管理模式结束了,因此, 这个国家的许多地区现在面临着来自外来动植物物种的入侵、丛林火灾和土地管理不善的严 重灾难。 所以为什么政府要将土地归还给原住居民是因为被污染的土地需要他们更好的管理。 故 A 选项正确。 7 B 推理判断题。 由倒数后三段“the combination of old and new techniques and an appreciation for the culture
25、of Indigenous workers has been critical to the programs success.“You are working with staff who see the world different to you, so there is a much higher focus on the cultural aspects of work and life,” he said. The culture is still alive.”可知,新老技术的结合以及对土著人文化的欣 赏对该项目的成功至关重要。他说:“你的同事和你有着不同的世界观,所以应更加关注
26、工作 和生活中的文化方面。这种文化仍然存在。所以通过 Luck 和 Terence 所说的话可以判断出, 从最后三段中能学到,文化对澳大利亚土著居民很重要。故 B 选项正确。 C Mary Lyon was a leader in womens education in the nineteenth century. It was a time when womens education was not considered important in the United States. States did require each town to provide a school for
27、children, but there were not enough teachers. Most young women were not able to continue their education. If they did, they often were not taught much except the French language, how to sew clothing, and music. Mary Lyon felt that womens education was extremely important. She believed women were tea

30、minary for Women. In 1893, 34 years after her death, under a state law, Mount Holyoke Female Seminary became the first college to offer women the same kind of education as men.

34、意】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了 Mary Lyon ,她是 19 世纪女性教育的领导者,为 争取美国女性与男性获得同样的教育机会做出了卓越的贡献。她的影响一直持续至今。 8B 细节理解题。由第一段“Most young women were not able to continue their education. If they did, they often were not taught much except the French language, how to sew clothing, and music.”可知, 大多数年轻女性无法继续接受教育。即使他们能接受了教育。除了法语、
35、如何缝制衣服和音 乐之外,他们通常不会学到多少东西。所以 19 世纪美国女性的教育问题是他们对科目几乎没 有选择权。故 B 选项正确。 9C 推理判断题。由第二段“Mary Lyon felt that womens education was extremely important. Mary opened a school for young women in the village of Buckland.”可知,Mary Lyon 认为女性的教育 极其重要。 Mary Lyon 在巴克兰村为年轻女性开办了一所学校。 所以我们能从第二段中学到, Mary 很重视女性的教育。故 C 选项正
36、确。 10 B 细节理解题。 由第三段“ This school would own its own property (财产), guided by an independent group of direction. Its finances would be the responsibility of the directors.Its finances would be the responsibility of the directors. It would not depend on any one person to continue”可知, 这所学 校将拥有自己的财产(财产),
37、由一个独立的指导小组指导。它的资金将由董事们负责,不依靠 任何人。所以 Mary Lyon 开办的学校在资金上是独立的,不依靠别人。故 B 选项正确。 11D 推理判断题。由最后段“Marys efforts led to the spread of higher education for women in the United States. Her influence lasted as the many students from her schools went out to teach others.” 可知,Mary 的努力使美国妇女接受高等教育得到普及。她的影响一直持续至今,因
38、为她创办 学校的许多毕业生都成为了老师。 所以通过关键词“ higher education for women , teach others.” 可以判断出,为什么美国人还记得 Mary 是因为她提高了美国女性的教育水平。故 D 选项正 确。 D If you use social media to chase away loneliness, a new study suggests youre going against the gain. We may have heard a lot about the benefits of interacting with others onli
39、ne, but the findings of a study conducted by University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine scientists show a direct relationship between social media usage and feelings of isolation (隔绝). In short, the more time you spend on social media, the lonelier you may feel. With increased interaction on a larg
40、e number of apps that allow for endless virtual connectivity, loneliness seems like the last problem frequent social media users would face, but according to the leader of the study Brain Primack, it has the exact opposite effect. “Mental health problems and social isolation are at widespread levels
41、 among young adults nowadays,” Primack said, “We are naturally social creature, but modem life tends to separate us instead of bringing us together. While it may seem that social media presents opportunities to fill the social void (空隙), I think this study suggests that it may not be the solution pe
42、ople were hoping for.” Primack and his team examined the social media habits of 1,787 U.S. adults aged 19 to 32 via a questionnaire that asked about the time and frequency they spent on the most popular social media platforms. Eventually, they determined that young adults who are constantly logging
43、into social media reported more feelings of isolation than those with less social media usage. Frequent exposure to unrealistic descriptions on social media instead of face- to- face social interactions may give people the impression that others are living happier, more connected lives, and this may
44、 users feel more socially isolated in comparison. 12What does the underlined phrase “going against the grain” in Paragraph 1 mean? ADoing it all wrong. BOn the way to success. CTaking a risk. DMaking a difference. 13How did Primack and his team conduct the study? ABy providing explanations. BBy coll
45、ecting data online. CBy doing a survey. DBy describing their own experiences. 14What can we learn from the study? AYou will feel happier if you spend more time online. BInteraction online is not the solution to social isolation. CVirtual connectivity is best way to fill the social void. DPopular soc
46、ial media platforms can bring people together. 15What does the text mainly tell us? ANew study on social media usage has been published. BFace- to- face social interactions are on the way out. CSocial media does users more harm than good. DSocial media might make loneliness worse. 【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。研究表明
47、,花在社交媒体上的时间越多,人们可能会越感到孤 独。 12A 词义猜测题。由第一段“If you use social media to chase away loneliness, a new study suggests youre going against the gain.”以及第二段“ In short, the more time you spend on social media, the lonelier you may feel.”可知,如果你用社交媒体来驱赶孤独,一项新的研究表明,你这是在逆 水行舟。简而言之,你花在社交媒体上的时间越多,你可能会感到孤独。所以通过下文的语
48、 境可以判断出,第 1 段中加下划线的短语“going against the grain”是 Doing it all wrong“都做错 了”的意思。故 A 选项正确。 13 C 细节理解题。 由第五段“Primack and his team examined the social media habits of 1,787 U.S. adults aged 19 to 32 via a questionnaire that asked about the time and frequency they spent on the most popular social media pla
49、tforms”可知, Primack 和他的团队通过问卷调查了 1787 名年龄在 19 岁 到 32 岁之间的美国成年人的社交媒体习惯, 问卷调查了他们在最受欢迎的社交媒体平台上花 费的时间和频率。所以 Primack 和他的团队是通过做一个调查进行这项研究的。故 C 选项正 确。 14 B 推理判断题。 由第四段“While it may seem that social media presents opportunities to fill the social void (空隙), I think this study suggests that it may not be the solution people were hoping for.”可知, 虽然社交媒体似乎提供了填补社会空白的机会,但我认为这项研究表明,这可能不是人们希 望的解决方案。所以我们能从研究中得到,在
