细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的最后一句“You should send any evidence you have with the nomination form, showing the nominees’ actions”可知，你必须将你所拥有的任何证据连同提名表格一起寄回，以证明被提名者的行为举止。如果需要提名某人的话，需要提供这个人相应的资料。故选C。
【3题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“The Young First Aider of the Year is a wonderful way to celebrate their bravery and quick-thinking．” 最佳青年急救员奖一个很好的方式来庆祝他们的勇敢和敏锐的思维。根据“Nomination for the Young First Aider of the Year is now open．” 年度年轻急救员的提名现在开始了。以及下文介绍了最佳青年急救员奖的相关信息。所以短文的最佳标题为“最佳青年急救员奖”。故选D。
B
My family and I never talked about school as the ticket to a future. I was in the classrooms, but I wasn’t there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.
I had an English teacher, Mr. Creech, who knew I couldn’t read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldn’t happen again. Later that day, Mr. Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.
Now I was 41 years old. One day, I planned to fly back to Texas to visit my friends and family. On my way from the airport, I saw Mr. Creech buying himself a drink. I rushed over and reached into my pocket to pay for him. “Do I know you?” he asked. “Yes, sir you do know me,” I answered excitedly. “My name is Anthony Hamilton. You taught me English.” The look on his face told me that he remembered the boy he’d once encouraged.
“I’m so glad I had a chance to see you,” I said. “And Mr. Creech, I have great news to share.” I told him I had learned to read. But that wasn’t all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get another Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well,” I added.
The experts say what once worried me has a name: dyslexia (诵读困难症). But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education.
4. Why did the author want to hide?
A. Because he felt sorry for himself. B. Because he hated being laughed at.
C Because he couldn’t read at all. D. Because he didn’t have a ticket.
5. Which of the following could best describe Mr. Creech?
A. Considerate and dutiful. B. Demanding and enthusiastic.
C. Emotional and dedicated. D. Friendly and ambitious.
6. Why couldn’t the author read before meeting Mr.Creech?
A. Because his reading age was not long enough.
B. Because his parents didn’t teach him how to read.
C. Because he was afraid of reading before the class.
D Because he didn’t have inner driving force to learn to read.
7. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Mr. Creech taught two students called Anthony Hamilton.
B. The author had become a published author and an active speaker.
C. Dyslexia was the underlying reason that made the author unable to read.
D. The author was grateful to Mr. Creech.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. D
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。记叙了作者患有诵读困难，13岁了还不识字。直到遇到了Creech老师，老师尽职地鼓励和帮助作者阅读，从此作者再也没有放弃阅读。多年后作者再次遇到老师，表达了自己的感激之情。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中I was in the classrooms, but I wasn’t there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide.（我在教室里，但我不是在那里学习写作、阅读甚至是说话。轮到我读书时，我想藏起来。）以及第二段中I had an English teacher, Mr. Creech, who knew I couldn’t read.（我有一个英语老师，Mr. Creech，他知道我不识字。）可知作者想躲起来，是因为他根本不识字。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中I had an English teacher, Mr. Creech, who knew I couldn’t read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. （我有一个英语老师，克里奇先生，他知道我不识字。在我的第一节课上，老师说任何一个阅读年龄在6岁以下的人都必须站起来。）可知Mr. Creech知道作者不识字，因此在第一节课上只是让阅读年龄在6岁以下的人站起来，体现了他很体贴学生；以及下文Later that day, Mr. Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read.（那天晚些时候，Mr. Creech鼓励我，并承诺他会尽最大努力帮助我学习阅读。）可知Mr. Creech帮助作者学习阅读，是非常尽职尽责的。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中Later that day, Mr. Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.（那天晚些时候，克里奇老师鼓励我，并承诺他会尽最大努力帮助我学习阅读。从那以后，我再也没有放弃过阅读。）以及最后一段The experts say what once worried me has a name: dyslexia. But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education.（专家们说，曾经让我担心的问题有一个名字:诵读困难。但我可以告诉你，这是因为缺乏受教育的欲望。）可知作者在遇到克里奇老师之前不能阅读，是因为他没有学习阅读的内在动力。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“I’m so glad I had a chance to see you,” I said. “And Mr. Creech, I have great news to share.” I told him I had learned to read. But that wasn’t all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get another Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well,” I added.（“我很高兴有机会见到你，”我说。“克里奇老师，我有个好消息要告诉你。我告诉他我已经学会了阅读。但这还不是全部。我成了一名作家和演说家。“下次你的教室里再来一个安东尼·汉密尔顿，请也鼓励他读书，”我补充道。）可知作者见到克里奇老师很高兴，并且告诉老师自己的近况，可推知作者很感激克里奇老师。故选D。
C
Many people have long dreamed of being able to fly around as simply as riding a bicycle. Yet the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years, developments in technology have moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now, two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon.
The British company Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype (原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton, marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics, says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly." It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed," he adds.
Mr. Stapleton says safety was the company's main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors to power the vehicle.
The company is testing a full-size prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams.
In New Zealand, Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a full-size prototype of its personal flying device, called the Jetpack. It can fly for more than 30 minutes, up to 1, 000meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour.
Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said the Jetpack "is built around safety from the start". In his words, “Reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself, very similar to a Formula One racing car.
The Jetpack uses a gasoline-powered engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute that would be used, if there should be an emergency. "It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot," he adds. Mr. Coker says the Jetpack will be ready for sale soon.
8. We can learn from the passage that the Hoverbike
A. can hardly get in and out of small spaces quickly.
B. can fly for over 30 minutes, up to l, 000 meters high
C. has been used by the police and emergency rescue teams.
D. can be transported quickly after being folded and packed.
9. Peter Coker uses the example of Formula One racing car to show that
A. the Jetpack is very safe and reliable.
B. the engine of the Jetpack is powerful.
C. the actual structure of the Jetpack is unique
D. the Jetpack can reach a great speed and height
10. The underlined word "It" in the last paragraph refers to .
A. the jet stream B. the engine
C. the Jetpack. D. the parachute
11. What is the author’s main purpose of writing the passage?
A. To describe the problems of inventing flying vehicles.
B. To introduce the latest development of flying vehicles.
C. To show the differences between two flying vehicles.
D. To advertise the two personal flying vehicles.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
本文为说明文。文章主要讲述一种个人飞行工具很快就会应用于现实，然而安全性和强度一直是个大问题文中介绍了两家研发飞行器的公司的最新的产品，新产品把安全放在首位，并对产品进行了改进。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段最后the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed, 可知，Hoverbike能够很快地进出小空间。它可快速地在大陆上移动，因为它可以折叠和包装。分析选项可知，A说不能快速进入小空间，故错误。D项说在折叠和包装后可以快速运输，D正确。根据第五段最后一句可知，the Jetpack可飞行30分钟，高达1000米，而不是Hoverbike，故B错误。根据第四段The company is testing a full-size prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams.
可知，Hoverbike是体验可能首先应用于警察和紧急救援队，而不是已用于，故C错误。
【点睛】通常细节题的正确选项有以下特征：1.对原文句子中的关键词进行替换。把原文中的一些词换成意义相近的词，成为正确选项。如D项就是对原句的关键词进行了替换。原文说能快速进入小空间，在陆地上快速移动，是因为它能折叠和包装。而D项说折叠和包装后可快速运输。2.词性或者语态的变化。把原文中的一些词变换一下词性，或者改变原文句子的时态或语态，给考生制造障碍。如C项把未然当成已然（句中的将来进表未做，C项完成表完成）3.语言简化。把原文中的复杂语言现象进行简化，成为正确答案。4.张冠李戴的手法来迷惑考生。把A的观点说成B的观点等。如选项B项。所以做题时要仔细地辩认。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。第六段Peter Coker说Jetpack从一开始就围绕安全进行的，安全可靠性是最重要的因素。我们在车的现行结构中植入了安全性，非常类似于Formula One赛车。分析选可知A项（Jetpack安全可靠）符合题意，故选A项。
【10题详解】
猜测词义题。根据最后一段Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute (降落伞) that can be used should there be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude …., （Coker先生说Jetpack上也有降落伞，可以在紧急情况下使用。“在海拔非常低的情况下开始用它…”。）可知，Jetpack上的降落伞它）是在海拔低时才用。由此可知it指的是parachute (降落伞) 故选D项。
11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段可知，许多人一直梦想能像骑自行车一样简单的飞来飞去，科技的发展让这个梦想很快实现。然而飞行自行车的安全性和强度一直是个大问题。接着下面叙述了两家研发飞行器的公司的最新的产品，新产品把安全放在首位。分析选项，可知B项（介绍飞行器的最新发展）符合文意。故选B。
D
