【答案】BCCBBC
【分析】本文讲述了一颗珍贵的蓝钻石在伦敦一场拍卖会上被拍卖，但随后神秘失踪的故事。聪明的侦探詹姆森通过细致的观察和推理，发现了一条几乎隐藏的蓝色细线，这条线索引导他找到了藏在通风口里的蓝钻石。最终，詹姆森凭借他的智慧和坚持，成功找回了失窃的蓝钻石，并将小偷绳之以法。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据第二段"Detective Jameson，a man who was very smart and had sharp eyes that noticed everything，was there，not to buy，but to make sure the precious stone was safe."，表明詹姆森警探在拍卖会现场的目的不是购买钻石，而是确保这颗珍贵宝石的安全，故选B。
（2）细节理解题。根据第五段 "He saw a small blue string，almost hidden，caught on the edge of the place where the diamond was shown.It led to a small hole in the wall，a ventilation shaft，where the cover was a little bit out of the place." 以及后续顺着线索找到钻石藏在通风井的小洞里等内容可知，小偷是通过把钻石藏在通风系统里，趁没人注意偷走了钻石，故选C。
（3）词义猜测题。根据最后一段The thief，caught in his own trick，was caught，and the Blue Diamond was given back to where it belonged，showing how much Detective Jameson's unwavering faith to justice.（小偷中了自己设的圈套而被抓获，那颗蓝钻石也物归原主了，这彰显出詹姆森警探对正义坚定不移的信念。）可知，"unwavering" 修饰 "faith to justice"，在这里体现的是他对正义坚定、不放弃的态度，意思是 "坚定不移的；不放弃的"，故选C。
（4）细节理解题。根据倒数第二段He followed the blue string，thinking about what could have happened.The thief had not only fooled the security but also left a clue that was so small，most people wouldn't see it.But Jameson did.（他顺着那根蓝色的细绳追踪，思索着可能发生过的情况。小偷不仅骗过了安保人员，而且还留下了一个极其细微的线索，大多数人都不会发现它，但詹姆森发现了。）可知，作者描述展示柜边缘那根几乎被隐藏的蓝色细绳这一细节，是因为大多数人都没发现这个细微线索，而詹姆森警探却注意到了，通过这个细节突出了他敏锐的观察力，故选B。
（5）细节理解题。根据最一段As the sun started to come up，the Blue Diamond was found，safe and not hurt，hidden in the small hole in the wall.The thief，caught in his own trick，was caught，and the Blue Diamond was given back to where it belonged，showing how much Detective Jameson's unwavering faith to justice.（随着太阳开始升起，那颗蓝钻石被找到了，它完好无损，就藏在墙上的小洞里。小偷中了自己设的圈套，被抓获了，蓝钻石也物归原主了，这彰显出詹姆森警探对正义那坚定不移的信念。）以及通读全文可知故事先是在伦敦的一场拍卖会上展示了漂亮的蓝钻石，竞拍很激烈，一位戴面具的先生赢得竞拍，但随后夜里钻石在戒备森严的情况下离奇失踪。詹姆森警探不放弃追查，凭借发现的蓝色细绳线索，顺着找到藏在墙上通风井小洞里的钻石，最终抓住小偷，让钻石物归原主。这一系列情节展现出詹姆森警探聪明机智，有着敏锐的观察力，并且对待工作认真负责、执着，不轻易放弃查找真相，所以是钻石被找到后，詹姆森警探因其出色的工作而受到赞扬，故选B。

42．（12分） Boxing（拳击） is a popular sport that many people seem to be attratced by.Newspapers，magazines and sports programs on TV frequently broadcast boxing matches.Professional（专业的） boxers earn a lot of money，and successful boxers are thought as big heroes.
It seems to me that people，especially men，find it exciting because it is an aggressive（攻击性的） sport.When they watch a boxing match，they can identify with the winning boxer，and this gives them the feeling of being a （1）　A　 themselves.It is a fact that many people have feeling of aggression from time to time，but they cannot show their aggression in their everyday lives.Watching a boxing match gives them a chance to use up their aggression.
（2）　B　，there is a negative side to boxing.It can be a very dangerous sport.Although boxers wear gloves during the fights，and amateur（业余的）boxers （3）　C　have to wear helmets which protects the head，there have frequently been accident in both professional and amateur boxing，sometimes with dramatic results.Boxers have suffered from head injuries，and sometimes，fighters have even been killed as a result of being knocked out in the ring.Furthermore，studies have shown that there are often long﹣term effects of boxing，in the form of serious brain （4）　C　，even if a boxer has never been knocked out.
I am personally not at all in （5）　A　of aggressive sports like boxing.I think it would be better if less time was given to aggressive sports on TV，and we welcomed more men and women from non﹣aggressive sports as our heroes and heroines in our society.I believe that the world is aggressive enough already !Of course，people like （6）　A　sports，and so do I，but I think that hitting other people in an aggressive way is not something that should be regarded as a sport.

【答案】ABCCAA
【分析】本文主要讨论了拳击运动的受欢迎程度及其原因，同时也指出了拳击运动的危险性和负面影响。作者认为，尽管许多人喜欢观看拳击比赛并从中感受到刺激和释放攻击性，但拳击作为一项极具侵略性的运动，其危险性不容忽视，包括可能导致的头部伤害甚至死亡事故，以及长期的大脑损伤。因此，作者个人不支持这类侵略性运动，并呼吁社会应更多关注非侵略性运动，减少电视上对侵略性体育的报道，以促进一个更加和谐的社会环境。
【解答】（1）考查名词。句意：当他们观看拳击比赛时，他们会认同获胜的拳击手，这让他们有一种自己也是赢家的感觉。A获胜者；B观看者；C观察者；D训练者。根据they can identify with the winning boxer（他们会认同获胜的拳击手）可知这种认同让他们自己也有一种获胜的感觉。故选A。
（2）考查副词。句意：然而，拳击也有不好的一面。A首先；B然而；C此外；D因此。根据两句的逻辑关系，可知此处表示转折。故选B。
（3）考查副词。句意：虽然拳击手在比赛中会戴上拳套，业余的拳击手甚至还要戴上保护头部的头盔，但无论是职业拳击还是业余拳击，都经常会发生意外，有时甚至会造成严重后果。A否则；B从不；C甚至；D很少。根据there have frequently been accident in both professional and amateur boxing（无论是职业拳击还是业余拳击，都经常会发生意外）可知即使戴头盔也会发生意外。故选C。
（4）考查名词。句意：此外，研究表明，即使拳击手从未被击倒过，拳击也会对大脑造成严重损伤，从而产生长期影响。A丢失；B波动；C损害；D混乱。根据Boxers have suffered from head injuries（拳击运动员头部受伤）可知此处指头部损伤。故选C。
（5）考查名词。句意：我个人根本不喜欢像拳击这样的有侵略性的运动。A喜欢；B过程；C管理；D力量。in favor of喜欢，固定短语。故选A。
（6）考查形容词。句意：当然，人们喜欢竞技体育，我也是，但我认为以攻击性方式打人不应被视为体育运动。A有竞争的；B安静的；C合作的；D有规律的。根据sports（运动）可知此处指竞技体育。故选A。

The Power of Memory
Memory，the ability that enables the retention of past experiences，is essentially connected to the process of learning.One needs memory for skills like riding a bicycle.A dog needs it to respond to commands.Memory is said to be （1）s 　tored　 in the brain as a "memory trace."What makes up this trace is not known.Some scientists believe that certain chemical substances may carry certain memories.For example，one substance，when given to rats，causes them to fear the darkness.
Other research into memory has to do with how the brain works.Psychologists use three means to find out how a person remembers.For example，give a person a grocery list.Let the person （2）m 　emorize　 the list，then put it away.The most natural way to find out how much a person remembers of the grocery list is to ask （3）w 　hat　 he or she remembers.This is called the method of recall.Another technique is recognition，the individual is presented with a different list and tasked with identifying items from the original list that appear only on the second list.Interestingly，individuals often find it easier to recognize rather than recall items.A （4）t 　hird　 method of finding how much a person remembers is called relearning.Here the person is asked to read over the first list.The person will probably learn the list the second time （5）f 　aster　 than he did the first time.The difference in the time it takes to relearn the list is thought of as a measure of how much a person has remembered.
Repetition is a common strategy for committing information to memory，yet （6）i 　t　 plays an important role.Boring lists of facts are much more difficult to remember than something that we understand and are interested in.Motivation，the drive to accomplish a task，is equally significant.Motivation is （7）l 　inked　 with the prospect of reward.For example，a hungry animal quickly learns how to do something if that action gets the animal food.In humans，wanting to learn is often motivation.with the approval of a teacher or the affirmation of a correct response serving as a reward.
【答案】（1）stored（2）memorize（3）what（4）third（5）faster（6）it（7）linked
【分析】本文主要探讨了记忆的力量及其在学习过程中的重要性。
【解答】（1）考查动词。句意：记忆据说是作为"记忆痕迹"储存在大脑中的。根据句意，此处意为"被储存在大脑中"，使用被动语态，所以使用动词的过去分词。故填stored。
（2）考查动词。句意：让这个人记住清单，然后把它收起来。根据句意可知，此处使用let sb.do sth.，固定搭配。故填memorize。
（3）考查代词。句意：想知道一个人对购物清单记得多少，最自然的方法是问他或她记得什么。根据句意，此处意为"问他或她记得什么"，使用what。故填what。
（4）考查数词。句意：第三种发现一个人记得多少的方法叫做再学习。根据句意可知，此处意为"第三种"，使用序数词third。故填third。
（5）考查副词。句意：这个人第二次可能会比第一次学得更快。根据后面的than可知，此处使用副词的比较级。故填faster。
（6）考查代词。句意：重复是记忆信息的常用策略，但它也起着重要的作用。根据句意可知，此处使用代词it指代前面的Repetition。故填it。
（7）考查动词。句意：动机与对回报的期望联系在一起。根据句意可知，此处使用be linked with...，固定搭配。故填linked。

【分析】Joe喜欢篮球。一天在去看篮球比赛的路上，一辆车撞上了他，Joe醒来时在医院的病房，当医生告诉他双腿骨折时，他知道他的大学篮球梦已经结束了，在他离开医院后，Joe被送到了一家健康中心，在他到达那里一周后，他遇到了Sunny。一个轮椅篮球队的教练。Sunny 邀请Joe参加比赛，Joe进步很快，篮球对他来说就像是一剂良药，Joe比以前好多了。

（2）Playing college basketball the following year.细节理解题。根据he was walking and dreaming about playing college basketball the following year.可知梦想着第二年打大学篮球。故答案为Playing college basketball the following year。
（3）He did what the doctors told him，but his progress was slow.细节理解题。根据Joe did what the doctors told him，but his progress was slow.可知是按照医生的要求做，但是进展很慢，故答案为He did what the doctors told him，but his progress was slow。
（4）Everyone on the team played from a wheelchair.细节理解题。根据Everyone on the team played from a wheelchair.可知队里的每个人都坐在轮椅上打球。故答案为Everyone on the team played from a wheelchair。
（5）Because he could play basketball.推理判断题。根据Joe played badly，but for the first time since the accident，he stopped feeling sorry for himself.Basketball was like medicine for him.可知是因为他能打篮球让他不再沮丧难过，故答案为Because he could play basketball。
（6）Everyone will have difficulties.If you overcome them in a positive way，your life will be different.续写题。合理即可。根据上文He asked Sunny how he managed to be so happy，confident and generous，even with his paralysis.是在询问Sunny为什么那么阳光自信，Sunny的回答是告诉他秘诀，每个人都会有困难。如果你以积极的方式克服它们，你的生活就会不同。故答案为Everyone will have difficulties.If you overcome them in a positive way，your life will be different。

Repetition is a common strategy for committing information to memory，yet （6）i 　 　 plays an important role.Boring lists of facts are much more difficult to remember than something that we understand and are interested in.Motivation，the drive to accomplish a task，is equally significant.Motivation is （7）l 　 　 with the prospect of reward.For example，a hungry animal quickly learns how to do something if that action gets the animal food.In humans，wanting to learn is often motivation.with the approval of a teacher or the affirmation of a correct response serving as a reward.
