A
Toronto is a city of neighborhoods, so wherever you are in Toronto, you're bound to find yourself surrounded by shopping, dining and culture experiences unique to that specific area.
Toronto's CN Tower
It's one of the world's tallest structures at 1,815 feet and the glassed-in elevators offer visitors a sense of just how high that is. In the tower's 360 Restaurant, diners sit on a floor that performs a full cycle every 72 minutes, guaranteeing different views of the city with each bite of meal. Plus, if you order dishes at the restaurant, your entry to the CN Tower is free.
The Fairmont Royal York Hotel
It is one of Toronto's oldest and most storied hotels. Since opening in 1929, it's stood as one of the largest hotels in the British Commonwealth with 1,600 rooms. It's also home to more than 300,000 bees, who live on the hotel's rooftop and produce honey for the Fairmont Royal York's dining facilities.
The Toronto Islands
North America's largest urban car-free community offers plenty of green space and beaches for visitors of all ages. Those looking for exercise can explore the islands by bike while checking out the breathtaking views of Toronto's skyline; visit the rental facility near the Centre Island ferry dock.
St. Lawrence Market
Voted the world's best food market in 2012, the St. Lawrence Market complex consists of two buildings. The north building plays host to weekly Saturday farmer's markets, while in the south building, open every day except Sunday and Monday, meat, baked goods, jewelry…are on offer. One of Toronto's most iconic(标志性的) breakfasts—the pea-meal bacon sandwich is considered a signature dish.

American folklore (民间传说) is filled with tales of fictional heroes like Pecos Bill and the Lone Ranger. Yet, besides those mythical characters, there are real historical figures whose lives and fascinating deeds were mythologized over the years. Among them there is an apple grower, known by the popular nickname Johnny Appleseed. This man is said to have traveled on foot across the United States, planting apple trees.
Appleseed's real name was John Chapman. Chapman was widely known by the pioneers settling in the western lands in the 1800s. And the native Indians respected him as a "white medicine man". However, not much is known about Chapman's early life, except that he was born in a north-eastern state in 1774 and that his mother died soon after that. It's also said that he grew up on his father's farm, where apple trees grew.
Appleseed's legend began when he planted his first apple trees in Pennsylvania in 1798.Then, he began traveling west. Walking for miles every day and sleeping outdoors, he planted apple trees near settlements, where he sold them to the pioneers. His apples, which were not suitable for eating due to their bitter taste, were used to make cider (苹果酒). This became a common drink for the pioneers, especially in places where clean drinking water wasn't available.
By 1806, Chapman had been given his new name, and stories about him had spread among the pioneers. Most of these focused on his survival in the wilderness. Chapman was also known for his eccentric clothing: instead of a shirt, he wore a cloth bag with holes for his head and arms, and he wore no shoes. He is also said to have carried a bag of apple seeds and have had a meal pot on his head as a hat.
When Appleseed died in 1845, he had walked across three western states. And he was the owner of five square kilometers of land. Appleseed's story was first published in an article in 1871.Yet, not all the details in this article and the ones published later were based on facts. Appleseed's legend has grown over the years through songs, stories and plays and modern-day Disney productions.

6. What does the underlined word "eccentric" in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Traditional. B. Strange. C. Casual. D. Colorful.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. The mysterious apples.
B. How were apples spread in America?
C. The legend of Johnny Appleseed.
D. Who was real Johnny Appleseed?
C
Many sugar-sweetened beverages (饮料) have little to offer—no nutritional value and lots of calories,and their harmful health effects have been well-documented.Now,a study links drinking too many sugary beverages—and even 100% natural fruit juices—to an increased risk of early death.Specifically,drinking too much fruit juice could lead to an increased risk of early death ranging from 9% to 42%,according to a study.
Overall,the sugars found in orange juice,although naturally occurring,are pretty similar to the sugars added to soda and other sweetened beverages,the study suggests. "Sugary beverages,whether soft drinks or fruit juices,should be limited," Jean Welsh,a co-author of the study said.
Seven US cities,including New York and most recently Philadelphia,have levied (征收) taxes on sweetened drinks with added sugar in an effort to reduce consumption.The new study defined "sugary beverages" as both sugar-sweetened drinks,like soda and fruit-flavored drinks,and 100% natural fruit juices that have no added sugar.So how does fruit juice compare to soda? "Previous research has shown that high consumption of sugars like those in soft drinks and fruit juices is linked to several cardiovascular (心血管的) disease risk factors," Welsh explained.
People who consumed 10% or more of their daily calories as sugary beverages had a 44% greater risk of dying due to a heart disease and a 14% greater risk of an early death from any cause compared with people who consumed less than 5% of their daily calories as sugary beverages,the study showed.Each additional 12-ounce (盎司) serving of fruit juice per day was associated with a 24% higher risk of death from any cause,and each additional 12-ounce serving of sugary beverages per day was associated with an 11% higher risk.
This is one of the first studies to examine the relationship between sugary drinks,including 100% fruit juices,and early death,wrote Marta Guasch-Fere and Dr.Frank B.Hu in an editorial published alongside the new study. "Although fruit juices may not be as harmful as sugar-sweetened beverages,their consumption should be moderated in children and adults,especially for individuals who wish to control their body weight," Guasch-Fere and Hu wrote.
Welsh said we need to consider both fruit juices and sugar-sweetened beverages when we think about how much sugar we consume each day.Between the two,she was in favor of fruit juices: "Given its vitamin and mineral content,fruit juice in small amounts may have a beneficial effect that isn't seen with sodas and other sugar-sweetened beverages."
8. What can we learn from the first paragraph? ______
A. Sugar-free drinks basically have no nutritional value.
B. Natural fruit juices are usually healthier than sugary beverages.
C. Drinking too much fruit juice may not be a healthy option.
D. The negative effect of drinking too many beverages remains unknown.
9. Why have seven US cities taxed sugary beverages? ______
A. To increase the government's income.
B. To increase the consumption of natural juice.
C. To urge people to turn to sugar-free drinks.
D. To let people buy less sweetened beverages.
10. How are the findings of the study presented to us? ______
A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving advice. D. By stating the facts.
11. From Jean Welsh's words,we know that ______ .
A. sugar is a major cause of cardiovascular disease
B. fruit juices are only recommended when consumed in small amounts
C. the sugar in juice is different from the sugar in sweetened beverages
D. the amount of sugar we consume mainly lies in drinks with added sugar
D
Is any economist so dull as to criticize Christmas?At first glance,the holiday season in western economies seems a treat for those concerned with such vagaries (奇想)as GDP growth.After all,everyone is spending;in America,retailers make 25% of their yearly sales and 60% of their profits between Thanksgiving and Christmas.Even so,economists find something to worry about in the nature of the purchases being made.
Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others.At the simplest level,giving gifts involves the giver thinking of something that the recipient would like he tries to guess his or her preferences,as economists say 一 and then buying the gift and delivering it.Yet this guessing of preferences is not easy;indeed,it is often done badly.Every year,ties go unworn and books unread.And even if a gift is enjoyed,it may not be what the recipient would have bought if they had spent the money themselves.
Interested in this mismatch between wants and gifts,in 1993 Joel Waldfogel,then an economist at Yale University,sought*。estimate the difference in dollar terms.In a research,he asked students two questions at the end of a holiday season:first,estimate the total amount paid (by the givers) for all the holiday gifts you received;second,apart from the emotional value of the items,if you did not have them,how much would you be willing to pay to get them?His results were gloomy:on average,a gift was valued by the recipient well below the price paid by the giver.
In addition,recipients may hot know their own preferences very well.Some of the best gifts,after all,are unexpected items that you would never have thought of buying,but which turn out to be especially well picked And preference can change.So by giving a jazz CD,for example,the giver may be encouraging the recipient to enjoy something that was ignored before.This,a desire to build skills,is possibly the hope held by many parents who ignore their children's desires for video games and buy them books instead.
Finally,there are items that a recipient would like to receive but not purchase.If someone else buys them,however,they can be enjoyed guilt-free.This might explain the high volume of chocolate that changes over the holidays.Thus,the lesson for gift-givers is that you should try hard to guess the inference of each person on your list and then choose a gift that will have a high emotional value.
12. For what reason arc economists concerned about holiday purchases? ______
A. Seasonal sales don't match profits well.
B. Some of the holiday purchases end up with waste.
C. Sales and profits arc far from being matched.
D. Seasonal sales fail to satisfy people's special wants.
13. The word"gloomy" (in 3rd paragraph) most probably means "n. ______ ".
A. accurate B. persuasive C. depressing D. undoubtable
14. According to the passage,which of the following statements is true? ______
A. Recipients tend to overestimate the values of a gift.
B. People's preference is born with nature and remains unchanged.
C. Chocolate is a gift which may cause recipients' sense of guilt.
D. Gifts may be used to help a person to cultivate a hobby or skill.
15. Which of the following statements might the author agree with? ______
A. Guessing preference is important although sometimes it fails.
B. The more money you spend on the gift,the more emotional value it has.
C. Recipients' preferences have an impact on the holiday season economy.
D. The attached value of a present is the essence of gift giving.
二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)
Remote computer-aided design (CAD)working involves designers using cloud-based CAD software to perform the same work they would do at your company's office.(16).And there are plenty of benefits to this approach.
Greater productivity
Multiple studies have shown that remote workers are in fact more productive than office staff. There are fewer distractions (分心)at home,no aimless gossip,lengthy meetings or annoying background noise.(17).
Sense of responsibility
One 2018 study found that an incredible 97% of employees would like a flexible job. (18).No one likes commuting (往返上班),and remote work allows people to improve their work-life balance. It lets them spend time with family,perhaps fit in a visit to the gym when it's less busy during the day,and it gives them a greater sense of responsibility. All means that staff who can work remotely are happier and more likely to stay at your business.
Money saving
From your company's financial perspective (视角),a benefit of remote CAD working is money saving.(19).What's more, if your employees provide their own computers and you use an affordable-cost cloud-based CAD platform, your expenses are even lower.
(20)
Imagine your company found an ideal designer for your next project, but he / she lives on the other side of the country--- in most cases you would not be able to hire him/her. But with remote CAD working, that person could become a permanent (永久性的) member of your team without having to relocate.
A. Talent pool expanding
B. It's fairly obvious why
C. Improvements on remote CAD working
D. The job is not different from what they will do at the office
E. Most managers may fear that remote CAD working is an excuse for staff
F. Instead,the individual employee can focus all their energy on work, and work alone
G. If you need less office space, you can save hundreds of thousands of dollars each year
16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

Part of her couldn't wait.This Saturday,the great Ana Wolff,famous pianist,would perform at the concert hall in town.For four years,Elizabeth had listened to Ms Wolffs recordings over and over again,loving the way the notes flowed like a rushing mountain stream.
Part of Elizabeth was terrified.Her music teacher at school,Mr Leaf,had asked her to present the flowers to Ms Wolff after the performance.But Elizabeth knew herself well.She had serious stage fright and she really hated it when she had to talk in front of people.Even so,Elizabeth was determined to take the challenge this time.

"No,thanks," said Elizabeth, "Mum,I can't do this!I'll forget.I might even pass out(昏倒)!"
"Oh,honey.Think about it...sharing the stage with Ana Wolff.What an honour!" Mum gently comforted her.
Elizabeth kept practising. "Beautiful flowers for...for a beautiful performance..." She presented the flowers to the cat,the dog,even the statue in the garden.Soon it was Saturday night,Elizabeth stood at the backstage,behind the heavy black curtains.Holding the bouquet(花束)of red roses,she felt her heart racing wildly and her stomach tightened with nervousness.
The lights dimmed,and Ms Wolff began her performance.She swayed and nodded with her fingers dancing across the keys.Soft sad parts,loud angry parts,parts that sounded fun to play.Drawn into the music,Elizabeth forgot for a moment about the six words she had to say.With a flourish(挥舞),Ms Wolff played her final note.Applause thundered through the hall.People jumped to their feet and cheered.
Ms Wolff smiled and bowed.Then she walked off stage and into the wings(舞台侧面).Almost immediately,she returned to the stage for a second bow.

2. 根据Toronto's CN Tower部分中的It's one of the world's tallest structures at 1,815 feet and the glassed-in elevators offer visitors a sense of just how high that is.(它是世界上最高的建筑物之一,高1815英尺,玻璃电梯让游客感受到它有多高。)以及The Fairmont Royal York Hotel部分提到的It is one of Toronto's oldest and most storied hotels. Since opening in 1929, it's stood as one of the largest hotels in the British Commonwealth with 1,600 rooms.(它是多伦多最古老、最有名的酒店之一。自1929年开业以来,它一直是英联邦最大的酒店之一,拥有1600间客房。)和 The Toronto Islands部分提到的North America's largest urban car-free community offers plenty of green space and beaches for visitors of all ages.(北美最大的城市无车社区为所有年龄的游客提供了大量的绿色空间和海滩。)以及St. Lawrence Market部分提到Voted the world's best food market in 2012, the St. Lawrence Market complex consists of two buildings.(St. Lawrence Market被评为2012年世界上最好的食品市场,由两栋建筑组成。)由此可推知,这四处景点,都非常有名。故选A。

4~7.【答案】A、B、B、C
【解析】【文章大意】文章讲述了美国历史上的一位传奇人物Johnny Appleseed的故事。
1. 根据第二段中的Appleseed's real name was John Chapman(Appleseed的真名是John Chapman)和第三段中的Appleseed's legend began when he planted his first apple trees(Appleseed的传奇始于他种植的第一棵苹果树)可知,Chapman是因为种植苹果树而成为传奇人物的,故选A。
2. 根据第三段中he planted apple trees near settlements, where he sold them to the pioneers. His apples, which were not suitable for eating due to their bitter taste, were used to make cider (苹果酒). This became a common drink for the pioneers, especially in places where clean drinking water wasn't available.(他在居民区附近种植苹果树,然后卖给拓荒者。他的苹果因其苦味不适合食用,被用来制作苹果酒。这成为拓荒者的常见饮料,尤其是在没有干净饮用水的地方)可知,当时Chapman的苹果制造成的苹果酒成为拓荒者的常见饮料,即在拓荒者中很受欢迎,故选B。
3. 根据第四段画线词后面的instead of a shirt, he wore a cloth bag with holes for his head and arms, and he wore no shoes(他没有穿衬衫,而是穿了一个布袋,头上和胳膊上都有洞,也没有穿鞋)及have had a meal pot on his head as a hat(把饭锅当帽子戴在头上)可推知,此处指他的行为比较奇怪,所以划线词意为“奇怪的”,故选B。
4. 文章第一段谈到美国民间有很多虚构的英雄,而Chapman作为真实的历史人物,他的生活和事迹也被神话化了,接下来三段主要介绍了他的早年经历以及他种植苹果树的事迹,最后一段大概总结了他的生平,所以本文的标题可以为:Johnny Appleseed的传奇故事,故选C。
8~11.【答案】C、D、B、B
【解析】(1)推理判断题。根据文章第一段Many sugar-sweetened beverages (饮料) have little to offer—no nutritional value and lots of calories,and their harmful health effects have been well-documented.Now,a study links drinking too many sugary beverages—and even 100% natural fruit juices—to an increased risk of early death.Specifically,drinking too much fruit juice could lead to an increased risk of early death ranging from 9% to 42%,according to a study. (许多含糖饮料几乎没有什么可提供的——没有营养价值,而且热量很高,它们对健康的有害影响已被充分证明。现在,一项研究表明,喝太多含糖饮料---甚至是100%天然果汁---会增加早死的风险。具体来说,一项研究表明,喝太多果汁可能会导致早死风险增加9%至42%。)可推断,喝太多的果汁会增加早死的风险,因此可知,喝太多果汁对健康无益,所以不是一个健康的选择。故选C。
(2)推理判断题。根据文章第三段Seven US cities,including New York and most recently Philadelphia,have levied (征收) taxes on sweetened drinks with added sugar in an effort to reduce consumption. (包括纽约和最近的费城在内的七个美国城市已经对添加糖的甜饮料征税,以减少消费。)可推断,这七个城市是对添加糖的甜饮料征税,由此判断,这样做的目的是为了督促消费者少买含糖饮料,也就是说让人们买不太甜的饮料。故选D。
(3)推理判断题。根据文章第四段People who consumed 10% or more of their daily calories as sugary beverages had a 44% greater risk of dying due to a heart disease and a 14% greater risk of an early death from any cause compared with people who consumed less than 5% of their daily calories as sugary beverages,the study showed.Each additional 12-ounce (盎司) serving of fruit juice per day was associated with a 24% higher risk of death from any cause,and each additional 12-ounce serving of sugary beverages per day was associated with an 11% higher risk. (研究显示,与摄入每日卡路里量不到5%的人相比,摄入每日卡路里量10%或以上的含糖饮料的人死于心脏病的风险要高出44%,因任何原因过早死亡的风险要高出14%。每天每多喝12盎司果汁,任何原因导致的死亡风险都会增加24%,每天每多喝12盎司含糖饮料,死亡风险会增加11%。)可知,作者通过对比的方式呈现研究结果。A.By giving examples.通过举例;B.By making comparisons.通过比较;C.By giving advice.通过给建议;D.By stating the facts.通过陈述事实。故选B。
(4)推理判断题。根据文章最后一段Welsh said we need to consider both fruit juices and sugar-sweetened beverages when we think about how much sugar we consume each day.Between the two,she was in favor of fruit juices: "Given its vitamin and mineral content,fruit juice in small amounts may have a beneficial effect that isn't seen with sodas and other sugar-sweetened beverages." (Welsh说,当我们考虑每天摄入多少糖时,我们需要考虑果汁和含糖饮料。在这两者之间,她更喜欢果汁:"考虑到果汁含有维生素和矿物质,少量的果汁可能有苏打水和其他含糖饮料所没有的有益作用。")可知,Welsh认为如果想要喝果汁,应该少量饮用。故选B。
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现,该研究发现表明许多含糖饮料几乎没有营养价值,而且热量很高,它们对健康有不好的影响。
一、速读全文,了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。
二、看题干,带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。
四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。
12~15.【答案】B、C、D、A
【解析】(1)B.推理判断题。根据第二段"Yet this guessing of preferences is not easy;indeed,it is often done badly.Every year,ties go unworn and books unread.And even if a gift is enjoyed,it may not be what the recipient would have bought if they had spent the money themselves."(然而,这种对喜好的猜测并不容易;事实上,反而很糟糕。每年,收的领带都没戴,书也没读。而且,即使礼物很受欢迎,也可能不是收礼人自己愿意自己花钱买的东西)可知,经济学家担心一些假日购物最后可能会是一种浪费,故选B。
(2)C.词义猜测题。根据划线词前的"how much would you be willing to pay to get them?"(你愿意花多少钱来买它们?)及划线词后的"on average,a gift was valued by the recipient well below the price paid by the giver."(平均而言,收礼者对礼物的估价远低于送礼者所花的钱)可知,结果是令人沮丧的,由此可知划线词词义为"令人沮丧的",A.accurate准确的;B.persuasive有说服力的;C.depressing令人沮丧的;D.undoubtable毋庸置疑的。故选C。
(3)D.细节理解题。根据第四段"Some of the best gifts,after all,are unexpected items that you would never have thought of buying,but which turn out to be especially well picked.And preference can change.So by giving a jazz CD,for example,the giver may be encouraging the recipient to enjoy something that was ignored before.This,a desire to build skills,is possibly the hope held by many parents who ignore their children's desires for video games and buy them books instead."(毕竟,有些最好的礼物是你从未想过要买的意想不到的东西,但却是经过精心挑选的,而且人们的偏好是可以改变的。例如,送一张爵士乐唱片,送礼者可能会鼓励收礼者享受以前被忽视的东西。这种培养技能的愿望,可能是许多父母的希望,他们忽略了孩子对电子游戏的渴望,反而给他们买书)可知,礼物可以用来帮助一个人培养爱好或技能,故选D。
(4)A.推理判断题。根据最后一段"Thus,the lesson for gift-givers is that you should try hard to guess the preference of each person on your list and then choose a gift that will have a high emotional value."(因此,给送礼者的经验教训是,你应该努力猜测清单上每个人的喜好,然后选择一件具有较高情感价值的礼物)可知,作者会同意"送礼时猜测对方的喜好很重要,尽管有时会失败"这个说法,故选A。
本文是一篇说明文,是关于节日购买礼物送人的一个社会生活调查,研究结果表明你所送的礼物往往并不是接受者所想要的,但尽管如此,送礼时猜测对方的喜好还是很重要的。

16~20.【答案】D、F、B、G、A
【解析】(1)D.信息提示题。上文"Remote computer-aided design (CAD) working involves designers using cloud-based CAD software to perform the same work they would do at your company's office." 说远程计算机辅助设计(CAD)工作涉及到设计师使用基于云计算的CAD软件来完成他们在公司办公室所做的相同工作,此处承接上文,接着介绍这种工作的基本特点,D选项"The job is not different from what they will do at the office" 这份工作和他们在办公室做的工作没有什么不同,其中的The job指的就是远程计算机辅助设计(CAD)工作,所以D选项呼应上文,故选D.
(2)F.细节理解题。上文"There are fewer distractions(分心) at home, no aimless gossip, lengthy meetings or annoying background noise." 说家里没有那么多让人分心的东西,没有漫无目的的闲言碎语,没有冗长的会议,也没有恼人的背景噪音。此处总结这种工作环境的好处,F项中的Instead在此起到连接的作用,与前面提到的单位办公环境形成对比,"the individual employee can focus all their energy on work, and work alone"起到了总结作用,因此F项"Instead, the individual employee can focus all their energy on work, and work alone" 相反,每个员工可以把他们所有的精力都集中在工作上,独自工作,符合语境,故选F.
(3)B.逻辑关系题。上文"One 2018 study found that an incredible 97% of employees would like a flexible job." 说2018年的一项研究发现,令人难以置信的是,97%的员工都喜欢弹性工作。下文"no one likes commuting(往返上班), and remote work allows people to improve their work-life balance." 说没有人喜欢通勤,远程工作可以让人们改善工作与生活的平衡。B项It's fairly obvious why中的it指代上文,下文解释了why的原因,B项起到了承上启下的作用,故选B.
(4)G.细节理解题。本段的主题是"Money saving"省钱。G选项"If you need less office space, you can save hundreds of thousands of dollars each year" 如果你需要更少的办公空间,你每年可以节省几十万美元。紧扣本段主题,故选G.
(5)A.标题归纳题。空处为本段小标题,根据本段"Imagine your company found an ideal designer for your next project, but he / she lives on the other side of the country--- in most cases you would not be able to hire him/her. But with remote CAD working, that person could become a permanent(永久性的) member of your team without having to relocate." 可知,想象一下,你的公司为你的下一个项目找到了一个理想的设计师,但他/她住在国家的另一边--在大多数情况下,你不会雇用他/她。但通过使用远程CAD,这个人可以成为你团队的永久成员,而不必搬家。由此可知本段的主题关于扩大招纳人才的范围,A选项Talent pool expanding人才库扩大,符合题意,适合作本段的标题,故选A.
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了远程计算机辅助设计(CAD)工作的四个好处。
"七选五"这样的题型,主要目的在于考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。解题时最主要的两个步骤就是1.理清文章的逻辑和结构,2.在所给的原文中找出关键词或者说是线索词。文章的整体思路能帮助你在答案中筛选出符合逻辑的选项,关键词则能帮助你确定更多的细节,排除相近的选项。得出正确的答案。

(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求,再次快速阅读短文,抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性,语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
