19、st of London,started to develop during the 1100s”可知,牛津大学成立了还不到1000年。5D细节理解题。由第二段“but the colleges take primary responsibility for the teaching”可知,这些学院的主要任务是教学。6B词义猜测题。由画线词所在的句子可知,supervise应该是指教师对学生的“指导”,B项最接近该意。7B细节理解题。由第三段中“Students choose which lectures to attend on the basis of their own special

21、escent Health.The study included about 4,500 US children aged 8 to 11 and measured their habits against the Canadian 24Hour Movement Guidelines for Children and Youth. It found that 51% of the children got the recommended(建议) nine to eleven hours of uninterrupted sleep per night, 37% met the recreat

Only 5% of the children in the study met all three recommendations; 30% met none at all.The researchers found that as each recommend
23、ation was met by a participant, there was a positive association with global cognition, which includes memory, attention, processing speed and language. Those who met all three had the most “superior” global cognition, followed by those meeting the sleep and screen time recommendation and finally th

The organization suggests putting realistic rules or limits in place for how long your children ar

29、creen time to in The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health.”可知本文主要建议父母亲要把孩子的屏幕消遣时间限制在2小时之内、保证孩子有足够的睡眠和锻炼,这样做可以确保孩子有更好的认知能力。所以本文的目标读者是父母亲,而不是研究人员、老师和儿童。故C项正确。9.D主旨大意题。本文主要建议父母亲要把孩子的屏幕消遣时间限制在2小时之内、保证孩子有足够的睡眠和锻炼,第三段最后一句“Those who met all three had the most” superior “global cognition, .”告诉父母亲如果我们这样做可以确保孩子有更
30、好的认知能力。故D项正确。10.C推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“Those who met all three recommendation alone, according to the study.”可知满足三个要求的人认知能力最好,接下来是满足睡眠时间以及屏幕消遣时间。说明体育锻炼对认知能力影响最小。故C项正确。11.B推理判断题。根据最后一句“Besides, parents should such as creating ” “techfree zones”可知“the American Academy of Pediatrics”建议父母亲对孩子的睡眠要设立规则,例如“techf
31、ree zones”,目的是确保孩子在卧室里有足够睡眠时间。故B项正确。DLe Val de Cantobre, Aveyron (France)Its in the grounds of a medieval house. Theres a swimming pool, a river and a pizza restaurant.

38、外露营地等名胜都各有特色,读者可以根据自己的经济情况和爱好来各取所需。12C细节理解题。 根据Le Val de Cantobre,Aveyron (France)中的“A weeks stay will cost you about 280” 可知,每人每天花费40,2人2天则花费2240160,故选C。13D细节理解题。根据Four Seasons Tented Camp, Golden Triangle (Thailand)中的介绍可知,游客可以去享受水疗、去租小木屋,还可以学习骑大象,没有去酒吧一项,本题要求选择没有的,故选D。14B细节理解题。 根据“Three Cliffs Bay
39、, Gower (Wales) a family tent (2 adults, 2 children) is about 28 a day.”和“You can waterski from the beach”可知,一家人可以去Three Cliffs Bay滑水,“For more information please go to www.T.”意思是,要获取更多的信息可以访问www.T,故选B。15A推理判断题。在价格方面,Longitude 131要一晚花费 1,500欧元,这个价格在the Four Seasons可以住两晚,另外2个的价格远不及这个,所以在所提到的旅游目的地中Lon
40、gitude 131是最贵的。Longitude 131在一个巨大的岩石附近,它更像一个酒店而不是一个露营地。所以排除其他,选A。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Interruptions are one of the worst things to deal with while youre trying to get work done._16_,there are several ways to handle things.Lets take a look at them now._17_Tell
