17、键词“Hurghada”可以将答案锁定在第一个小标题下。由第一句 介绍中的“the main attraction of staying here is the activities in and on the warm waters”可知，游客喜欢呆在 Hurghada 的最主要的原因是这儿有很多在温暖的水上以及水中 举行的活动。也就是说它提供很多种与水有关的活动供游客选择。故选 B。 【2 题详解】 细节理解题。 文章最后一段是对埃及首都 Cairo （开罗） 的介绍。 由其中的“Its definitely a starting point for most of Egypt holid
18、aymakers.”可知，毫无疑问，它是去埃及旅游 的大多数人开始旅游的地方。也就是说很多来埃及旅游的人，先会参观开罗。故选 A。 【3 题详解】 推理判断题。文章向读者介绍了去埃及旅游时可以参观的三个城市。由其内容可知，这篇文 章应来自于与旅游相关的杂志或网站。A. a historical document 历史文献；B. a science magazine 科学杂志；C. a travel guide 旅游手册；D. a book review 书评。只有选项 C 与 旅游相关，故选 C。 B B Have you ever noticed that your fingertips a
19、re wrinkled (起皱的) when youve just finished swimming or washing dishes? It seems as if your hands have aged 30 years in a second. But is this an accident? Or is it something that nature has built into our bodies? “If your fingers wrinkling up had no use at all, it wouldnt need to.” Professor Tom Smul
20、ders from Newcastle University UK told BBC News.

21、ngs more tightly. To test this, researchers asked 20 people to pick up marbles (大理石) from water with their hands.

27、nough. D. They are not so sensitive as dry fingers. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。科学家们用实验向我们证明了：在水里浸泡一段时间，我们的手指会皱起 来，有利于更能牢牢的抓住被浸湿的物体。并猜测了这一基因进化的背景。同时也指出了这 一生理现象的不足之处，那就是感觉不太灵敏了。 【4 题详解】 词句猜测题。由于“To test this（来验证它）”出现在第三段段首，而 this 是指代前边提 安徽芜湖高一英语下册期末考试试卷（含解析） - 6 - / 22 到过的事件或物体。所以我们在第二段段尾找它对
28、应的指代关系。第二段段尾句句意为：因 此他们做了一个猜想，手指起皱可能能帮助我们更紧紧地抓住东西。“a guess”与划线单词 this 都是单数形式，从形式和句意上都可以形成指代关系。故选 B。 【5 题详解】 推理判断题。 文章第三段讲述科学家们所做的试验。 由其中的“The researchers found that （科学家们发现）”可知其后的宾语从句说明的是实验结果。由这个宾语从句中从句部 分内容及其后一句内容可知，手指起皱的人能比手指干的人能更能快速地捡起水里的大理石， 而他们捡起干的大理石的速度是一样的。故可推知，手指起皱能帮人们更紧地抓住湿物体。 故选 C。 【6 题详解】
29、细 节 理 解 题 。 由 最 后 一 段 中 的 “Researchers explained that wrinkling had its disadvantage: wet fingertips are far less sensitive than smooth ones, reducing our sense of touch.”可知，科学家们解释说，起皱也有缺点，湿的手指没有光滑的手指敏感， 这样会削弱我们的触觉。也就是说起皱的手指不像干手指一样敏感。故选 D。 【点睛】词句猜测在高考中有三种考查形式：生词猜测词义或熟词生义、猜测一句话的意思、 指代关系猜词（代词或者名词） 。从近
30、三年考查形势看，三种考查方式同等重要。本文中第一 考查的是指代关系猜词。这种题中划线词汇一般都是代词。例如本题中划线单词是 this。解 这种题目，首先定位原文，找出题干中要求的指代词；其次依据代词的单复数意义或者其它 隐含含义，向上搜索，找出可替代的离的最近的名词（名词短语）或句子；最后用找到的词 替代划线词汇，看句意是否通顺。例如本题第一题中，首先由 this 可知，替换的可能是不可 数名词或者单数名词， 由于划线单词位于段首句， 我们要现在本句 this 前找有没有单数名词， 如果没有，再从上一段尾句开始找，就可以找到单数名词 a guess，且 test the guess 也是 语义
31、通顺的。故选 B。 C C To bring the Olympic spirit to developing nations in the late 1990s, the Olympic Committee allowed a small number of “wild card” athletes to join the Games.
