15、It would also save a bit on energy bills and waste.“Annually，unwanted phone chargers produce 51,000 tons of waste in addition to the greenhouse gases created by the production of the electricity needed to charge them，” Hyland says.So a chargerfree phone is also a green phone.Though adapting our plug

51、e outdated idea of fathers as detached(使分開) from the parenting process and thats just what the photographers intended.”可知，時代的攝影師們認為Oscar Wilde的觀點已經過時了。 2. 答案：B解析：推理判斷題。根據文章開頭“Fathers should be neither seen nor heard，wrote Oscar Wilde.This is the only proper basis for family life.”可推知，Oscar Wilde認為在家
52、庭生活中，父親要和孩子們保持一定的距離，故答案為B項。 3. 答案：A解析：詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞所在句下一句的內容可知，Gregory Heisler想向讀者展示最真實的父親對孩子的關愛之情，故“genuine”與“real”同義。 4. 答案：D解析：細節(jié)理解題。從第三段中的“Although Lowe has not experienced fatherhood yet，he observed many warm moments of parenting by spending a lot of private time with each dad and child.”可以看出，Low
53、e通過觀察那些父親和孩子在一起的溫馨時刻，來傳遞自己的理念。 5. 答案：A解析：判斷正誤題。由第二段中的“This isnt the first time that.some 20 times”可知A項正確，由第四段的第一句可知B項錯誤；由第三段的最后一句可知C項錯誤；通讀全文可知，D項在文中沒有信息支持，故可排除。 B6. 答案：D解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段“.the ECu(E for energy，Cu for copper) is coated by copper backing with heat sinks like those normally used to keep el
54、ectronics from overheating.”可知，這種手機有一個銅制的后蓋，可以防止電器過熱，所以有一個導熱性很強的蓋子。 7. 答案：A解析：推理判斷題。畫線部分后面“.like those normally used to keep electronics from overheating.”作出了解釋，說明是用來散熱的。 8. 答案：B解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第四段“Annually，unwanted phone chargers produce 51,000 tons of waste in addition to the greenhouse gases created b
55、y the production of the electricity needed to charge them.”和“So a chargerfree phone is also a green phone.”看出，這種手機不需要像普通手機那樣插入電源充電，有節(jié)能的功能；根據第一段“.it charges from any heat source.”可知這種手機是從熱源那里獲得電源，通過里面配置的熱偶發(fā)電器把熱能隨時轉換為電能，因此綠色環(huán)保，答案為B項。 9. 答案：D解析：推理判斷題。從后兩段看出，即使在沒有電源的地方也可以使用這種手機，結合“countless opportunitie
56、s，aid and health advances”判斷，這種手機潛力無限、前景廣闊。 10. 答案：C解析：主旨大意題。本文介紹的是一種不用插入電源、在口袋里即可獲得電能的手機，所以答案為C項。 C11. 答案：C解析：詞義猜測題。根據第三段“We had a hard time calming down students.”以及第四段“Media coverage may arouse some students negative emotions again.”可知校方不愿意接受采訪。 12. 答案：C解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第六段開頭“Advisors and class leaders
57、 conducted dormtodorm checks to find students suffering depression.”可知答案為C項。 13. 答案：B解析：推理判斷題。Entertainment指“娛樂版”；Campus指“校園版”；Advertisement指“廣告版”；Culture指“文化版”。本文介紹的是華中科技大學學生跳樓自殺的原因和解決辦法，所以應在“校園版”。 14. 答案：A解析：細節(jié)理解題。校方對第一次自殺事件迅速做出了反應，這不應該是他們不愿接受采訪的原因。 15. 答案：B解析：主旨大意題。本文首先由描述華中科技大學兩名學生自殺引出“大學生自殺”這一社
58、會現象和問題，然后分析產生此現象的原因，最后提出解決方法。解決方法是重點，所以答案為B項。D16. 答案：D解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段第二句“.to suffer cold and hardship，and to take risks on high mountains？”可知，爬山者要遭受寒冷、艱辛，還要冒各種風險。可知選D項，“包含以上全部內容”。 17. 答案：C解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第三段第二、三句“There are no manmade rules，as there are for such games as golf and football.There are，of cour
59、se，rules of a different kind.”可知，運動與游戲的主要不同在于規(guī)則。 18. 答案：D解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第四段第三句“.when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend，there is obviously teamwork.”可知，登山運動員在登山過程中也需要相互依靠。所以登山運動也是一項集體運動，正確答案為D項。 19. 答案：C解析：推理判斷題。根據第四段第三句“There are，it is true，no matches between t
60、eams of climbers.”以及第五段第二句“He has to fight the forces of nature.”可知，登山運動是同大自然進行比賽。 20. 答案：A解析：主旨大意題。本文主要在討論登山運動并將其與其他運動相比較，A項最具概括性。第二節(jié) 1. 答案：Tips on making a successful interview 2. 答案：Make Full Selfpreparation 3. 答案：To be a good listener and find some common ground with your interviewers. 4. 答案：smartly and casually/in a smart and casual style 5. 答案：that you are nervous
