答案解析

　　1-4.聽(tīng)力原文：When Midori was two years old, she often climbed onto the piano bench and reached for the violin that belonged to her mother, a 38-year-old professional musician.

　　"Please don't touch, Midori," her mother scolded. The violin was, after all, worth more than $20,000.

　　But Midori persisted; she longed to handle the graceful instrument that made beautiful sounds. Finally, on her third birthday, Midori was handed a package: a tiny violin, about half the normal size.

　　Almost from the moment Midori was born, her mother knew she was sensitive to music. For several years mother and daughter practiced together day after day. She was eager to learn. Failure often led to tears, though she never once turned from the instrument. Instead, she persisted until the problem was overcome.

　　One day Johnston, an American musician, heard Midori playing the violin. He couldn't believe she was just eight years old. "She must make a tape and I will take it to the United States," the musician said.

　　A famous American violin teacher heard the tape. He, too, had difficulty believing his ears. The playing was absolutely astonishing. He immediately accepted her as a pupil and recommended her for a full scholarship. In 1982, Midori and her mother moved to New York city, leaving behind a comfortable life in Japan.

　　正確答案：1. D 2. A 3. D 4. C

　　解題思路：1.第一段直接提到她母親是個(gè)音樂(lè)家。

　　2.第二段最后一句話的意思：這把小提琴值兩萬(wàn)多美元。A項(xiàng)的句意是：這把提琴很貴。兩句的意思吻合。B項(xiàng)的意思：Midori太小了不能拉提琴，這與提問(wèn)的要求在內(nèi)容邏輯上不符。C項(xiàng)在原文中沒(méi)有提及。D項(xiàng)與內(nèi)容也不吻合。

　　3.第五段的最后一句話：She must make a tape…與D.項(xiàng)：To make a tape recording在內(nèi)容上相吻合。A項(xiàng)在原文中提及，而且與原文的部分內(nèi)容一致，但卻不是本題的答案。本題問(wèn)的是：約翰斯頓要求Midori做什么?而原文中第五段第一句話說(shuō)的卻是：約翰斯頓聽(tīng)了Midori的演奏。因此A項(xiàng)是答非所問(wèn)故被排除。B項(xiàng)與C項(xiàng)都是張冠李戴，因?yàn)檫@兩項(xiàng)的主語(yǔ)施動(dòng)者都不是約翰斯頓。

　　4.最后一段的第四句話：He immediately accepted her as a pupil…與C項(xiàng)的內(nèi)容一致，故選C。

　　5-7.聽(tīng)力原文：In the old days divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.

　　One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania", which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1,500 lives. It had four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of these propellers is worth $300,000 or more. The ship, lying on the sea-bed, has been bought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up these propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $600,000.

　　正確答案：5. D 6. C 7. D

　　解題思路：5. 細(xì)節(jié)題。見(jiàn)第一段最后一句。The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.

　　6. 細(xì)節(jié)題。文中提到 "which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1,500 lives",意思是死了約1500人。

　　7. 數(shù)字計(jì)算題。1200000 + 600000 = 1800000.

　　8-10.聽(tīng)力原文：Fast-food restaurants are very popular in the United States. They are popular because the service is fast and the prices are low. Of all the fast-food restaurants, McDonald's is probably the most famous and the most popular.

　　Richard and Maurice McDonald, the original owner of McDonald's, opened their first self-service restaurant in San Bernadino, California. People would come from everywhere to buy their French fries and hamburgers. Workers would buy their lunches at McDonald's because the hamburgers and french fries tasted better than their lunches from home.

　　By 1960, the McDonald brothers owned 228 self-service restaurants. Then, in 1960, Ray Kroc, a 56-year-old salesman, bought the name and most of the restaurants for 2.7 million dollars.

　　He then began to build new restaurants, and, by 1982, he owned about 7,063. Of those restaurants, about 1,283 were in other countries: Japan, West Germany, England, and Australia. That same year, McDonald's Corporation earned about 7 million dollars.

　　McDonald's is a big business, but it is not too big or too rich to help ordinary people. For example, owners of restaurants participate in special community programs for children or senior citizens.

　　The corporation owns special houses near children's hospitals. These Ronald McDonald houses are for sick children and their parents. Sometimes a child has to go stay at a hospital for several weeks or months. Then the child's parents can stay at a Ronald McDonald house. Staying at these houses is cheaper than staying at hotels, and the atmosphere is friendlier and more homelike.

　　正確答案：8. C 9. D 10. D

　　解題思路：8.文章內(nèi)容講的是麥當(dāng)勞的歷史。本題考查點(diǎn)是事實(shí)的記憶和再現(xiàn)。相關(guān)的信息出現(xiàn)在材料的前一部分。Richard and Maurice McDonald, the original owner of McDonald's, opend their first self-service restaurant in San Bermardino, California.所以答案是C。

　　9.考查有關(guān)事實(shí)的再現(xiàn)。相關(guān)的信息是McDonald's is a big business, but it is not too big or too rich to help ordinary people. For example, owners of restaurants participate in special community programs for children or senior citizens.參照一下備選項(xiàng)，發(fā)現(xiàn)D是正確的選項(xiàng)。senior citizens的意思是老年人。

　　10.時(shí)間已經(jīng)限定在1982年。在材料里的相應(yīng)信息是 by 1982, he owned about 7,063. Of those restaurants, about 1,283 were in other countries: Japan, West Germany, England, and Australia. That same year, McDonald's Corporation earned about 7 million dollars. 所以答案是D。
