的學(xué)生在考場(chǎng)上讀題和記錄答案,使他們得以繼續(xù)接受教育的故事。

mothermanagedtoraiseenoughmoneytoeducateherthroughhighschooI.（她以為她

得退學(xué)了。幸運(yùn)的是,她的母親設(shè)法籌到了足夠的錢(qián)供她讀完高中）”可知,Nagaraj艱難地完

成了高中學(xué)業(yè)，故選B。

【5題詳解】

詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)畫(huà)線詞上文“InIndia,mostchiIdrenwithsightchailengesdonothave

況下，因此他們對(duì)參加筆試就會(huì)變得很猶豫，進(jìn)而輟學(xué)。故畫(huà)線詞意思為“變得猶豫”。故選A。

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中uAnotherchaIIengeistoexpandthecircIeofscribes.（另

一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)是擴(kuò)大抄寫(xiě)員的圈子）”可推知,Nagaraj女士必須克服的挑戰(zhàn)是抄寫(xiě)員的數(shù)量有限。

故選Ao

【答案】16.A17.F18.C19.G20.E

【解析】

本文為說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了人們傾向于為心愛(ài)的人花大筆錢(qián)買(mǎi)禮物的幾個(gè)原因。

「6題詳解】

根據(jù)首句"HaveyoueverspIashedout（花大筆$戔）onapresentforsomeoneyouIove,

spendingfarmorethanyouwouldonyourself?”（你是否曾經(jīng)花大筆錢(qián)為你喜愛(ài)的人買(mǎi)

禮物,花的錢(qián)遠(yuǎn)比花在你自己身上的多？）這個(gè)問(wèn)句可知，在下文里需要有個(gè)回答,A項(xiàng)的“If

so,youarenotalone"（如果是這樣，不是只有你會(huì)這樣做。）符合語(yǔ)境邏輯。故選A。

【17題詳解】

根據(jù)空格后文句子“SineemycIoserelativessharemoregeneswithme,naturaIselection

hasseIectedforthewayofinvestingincIosereIatives,"（因?yàn)槲业慕H與我享有

更多的基因，自然選擇已經(jīng)選了這個(gè)為近親投資的方式）可知，本句是上一句中的“原因”的具

體內(nèi)容，所以F項(xiàng)中的"reason”和“genes”與空格后句子的“since"和"genes”相呼應(yīng)，

符合語(yǔ)境邏輯。故選F。

【18題詳解】

根據(jù)空格前句子"ThosewithhigherEOspentmoremoneyongiftsforothers,especiaIIy

peopletheywerecloseto."（那些情商更高的人花更多的錢(qián)給他人買(mǎi)禮物，尤其是給他們

親密的人）及空格后句子"TheideaisthatpeopIewithhigheremotionaIunderstanding

canbetterpredicttheirownemotions,asweIIasthoseofthereceiver,“（有觀

點(diǎn)認(rèn)為：情商更高的人能更好地預(yù)測(cè)他們自己的情感,而且還能更好地預(yù)測(cè)那些接受者的情感）

中的兩個(gè)形容詞比較級(jí)"mere"“better”可知，C項(xiàng)"Andtheyexperiencedgreater

happinessdoingcon（通過(guò)這樣做，他們能體會(huì)到更大的快樂(lè)）中的比較等級(jí)“greater”符

合語(yǔ)境邏輯,they指代的就是上下文中的“情商更高的人”。故選C。

【，9題詳解】

根據(jù)空格后句子"ExpertshaverecognizedpIentyofothersreasons,fromcheering

someoneuptotheself-interested."（專(zhuān)家們已經(jīng)認(rèn)識(shí)到許多別的理由，從鼓舞別人到自

我的興趣）可知,這說(shuō)明送人禮物這一行為不只是因?yàn)榍樯谈?還有其他原因,G項(xiàng)“Ofcourse,

il'snoIjusldownLoevoluLionorEQIhaLwegivepresents"（當(dāng)然，我們贈(zèng)人禮物

的行為不只歸因于進(jìn)化或情商）符合語(yǔ)境邏輯。故選G。

[20題詳解】

根據(jù)空格前一句"ResearchsuggeststhattheIoweryourincome,thebiggerpartofit

youspendonchiIdren,comparedtomorewealthyfamilies."（研究表明：與富裕的家

庭相比，你收越低時(shí)，你花在孩子們上的部分就越大）可知，E項(xiàng)“That'sbecause

chiIdren5sneedsareseenassomewhatfixed"（那是由于孩子們的需求被看作是某種固
