故该划线单词意思应为“损害”，故A选项正确。2.细节理解题。由倒数第三段中的“Thereasonforthechildren’sdecisiontogotoShenzhenistheirloveofmusic.TheyarealltalentedandwanttosingtheirheartsoutinfrontofnationalaudiencebyparticipatinginaShenzhen—basedrealityshow”可知，这四个孩子都热爱音乐。他们想参加在深圳举行的真人秀节目，在全国观众面前唱出自己的心声。故D选项正确。3.细节理解题。由第一段中的“AwardingwiningfilmBalladFromTibet(《天籁梦想》)byChinesedirectorZhangWeiisscheduledtopremiereinNewYorkCityonSaturday,March10.”可知，该电影将在3月10号在纽约首映。故B选项正确。4.推理判断题。由最后一段的介绍可知，该电影获得了很多奖项，故可推知，它非常的成功。A选项正确。B【答案】5.C6.B7.B8.A【解析】这是一篇说明文。这篇文章讲的是维多利亚时期的文学。列举了代表性的作家和他们的代表作。\n5.细节理解题。根据第二段的句子DickenswrotevividlyaboutLondonlifeandthestrugglesofthepoor.可知，狄更斯写了伦敦的生活和穷人的挣扎。故选C。6.细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话TheBrontesisterswereEnglishwritersofthe1840sand1850s.可知，勃朗特姐妹是19世纪40年代和19世纪50年代的英国作家，所以选项A的描述错误；根据第三段第三句可知，In1846theypublishedthefirstbookattheirownexpenseaspoets.可知，勃朗特姐妹是自己出钱出版了第一本书，所以选项B的描述正确；根据第三段Theybegantowritefromearlychildhood.可知，他们从小就开始写作。所以选项C的描述错误；根据第三段,theirbookattractedlittleattention,sellingonlytwocopies.可知，他们的书几乎没有引起注意，只卖了两本，所以选项D描述错误。故选B。7.推理判断题。根据最后一段Adventurenovelswerewrittenforadultsbutarenowgenerallygroupedinthelistforchildren.可知，冒险小说是为成年人写的，但现在一般都归为儿童写；由此可推知，冒险小说起初不是为儿童写的。故选B。8.主旨大意题。从文章第一段的句子：ItwasintheVictorianEra(维多利亚时期)thatthenovelbecametheleadingformofliteratureinEnglish.可知，正是在维多利亚时代，小说成为英语文学的主要形式。所以这篇文章讲的是维多利亚时期的文学。故选A。C【答案】9.C10.B11.D12.A【解析】这是一篇说明文。继《哪吒》票房大获成功后，这部电影的导演杨宇一夜成名。文章主要介绍了导演杨宇的个人经历，和制作这部电影的一些过程。电影中哪吒的形象较以往有了很大的变化，这是因为杨宇希望通过哪吒的新形象，传达“不要以貌取人”的思想。9.细节理解题。根据第一段Afterthebox-officesuccessofNeZha,YangYu,thedirectorofthefilmhasrisentofameovernight.可知继《哪吒》票房大获成功后，这部电影的导演杨宇一夜成名。由此可知，《哪吒》的成功使它的导演杨宇变得非常有名。故选C。10.细节理解题。根据第二段中Yangwasborninadoctor’sfamily.Ashisparentsthoughtahospitaljobwouldbestable,Yangstudiedmedicineincollege.可知杨出生在一个医生的家庭。由于父母认为医院的工作比较稳定，杨在大学里学医。由此可知，杨的父母希望他毕业后成为医生。故选B。11.细节理解题。根据最后一段中Hiringaround1,600membersfromover20animationcompanies,thefilmtookfiveyearsforproduction,withNeZha’snewscreenimage—aboywithuglyteethanddarkcirclesaroundhiseyes.Itwasabigchangebecauseoverthepast40years,NeZhahadbeenplayedbyhandsomeactorsinTVdramasandmovies.可知这部电影从20多家动画公司雇佣了大约1600\n名成员，用了5年的时间制作，用的是哪吒的新银幕形象——一个有着丑陋牙齿和黑眼圈的男孩。这是一个巨大的变化，因为在过去的40年里，哪吒一直由英俊的演员在电视剧和电影中扮演。由此可知，在这部由杨宇导演的动画电影中，哪吒的外表有了很大的变化。故选D。12.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Wewantedabreakthroughandwishedtoconveyamessagethatit’stheinsidepersonalitythatdecideswhoyouare.”Yangexplains.可知“我们想要一个突破，希望传达这样一个信息，那就是内在的个性决定了你是谁。”杨解释说。由此可推知，杨宇会用A选项“不要以貌取人”这条谚语来传达他想要表达的信息。故选A。D【答案】13.C14.D15.D16.C【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲了讲述的是由著名小说《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中的一些句子演变成的英语俗语。13.推理判断题。根据第六段的“However，usuallyweusethisexpressiontomeanwegetinterestedinsomethingtothepointofdistraction（分神）.然而，通常我们用这个短语来表示我们对某事感兴趣，以至于分心。”可知，人们通常用"Tofalldowntherabbithole"表达被一些分神的东西感兴趣。C项当吉姆在网上找体育书籍时，他迷上了许多有关超级明星的报道。符合此义，故选C。14.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“ButtobemadasaMarchHaremeansthatsomeoneiscompletelymad，orcrazy.TheexpressionmadasaHatteralsomeanstobecompletelycrazy.但是像三月兔一样发疯意味着某人完全疯了，或者说疯了，"madasaHatter"这个词也意味着完全疯了。”可知，tobemadasaMarchHare与madasaHatter都表示完全地疯狂的意思，故选D。15.细节理解题。根据最后一段的“AwomanwhoiscalledaQueenofHeartslikescontrollingothersandalwaystriestocontroleverythingandeveryonearoundher.一个被称为红桃皇后的女人喜欢控制别人，总是试图控制周围的一切和每个人。”可知，叫作QueenofHearts的妇女想要控制别人，并且总是控制她周围的每个人、每件事，故选D。16.推理判断题。根据全文可知，本文讲述的是由《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中的一些句子变成的英语俗语，可知作者是想探索一下著名小说中的一些英文表达方式，故选C。
