细节理解题。根据第三段的最后一句可知，买用过的书无疑是一种节省钱的方法，故B项正确。2．选A 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“Havingagoodcollegeexperienceisallaboutbalancingworkandfun”；第五段第一句“Beawarethatyourlivingenvironmentcanlargelyaffectyouracademicsuccess”和最后一段的最后一句“Having_too_much_on_your_platecanhurtyourgrades”可知，作者不时地提醒，对大学新生而言，任何时候都要把学业成绩放在首位，故答案为A。3．选D 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Avoidfoods...15poundsduringtheirfreshmanyear”可知，很多大学生在大一期间，长胖了至少15磅，即很多大学新生不注重饮食，对饮食持放松随意的态度，故D项正确。4．选C 句意理解题。最后一段中的“Makesure,though,thatyoustillhavetimetostudy”表明了作者的态度，即可以参加俱乐部和其他的组织，但是要确保有时间学习，故可推断此处表示如果课外活动太多，会影响成绩，即C项正确。语篇解读：家长该不该给孩子某种奖励来激励他们做家务呢？本文针对这个问题进行了探讨。5．选A 推理判断题。由文章第一段可知，作者首先陈述目前一些家长常见的做法，从而引出本文讨论的话题：家长该不该奖励孩子做家务。因此答案为A。6．选C 细节理解题。根据第二段可知，SusieWalton认为孩子有义务帮助家长做家务，家长不应奖励孩子做家务。因此答案为C。7．选D 段落大意题。文章第三段的第一句是本段的主题句，讲的是奖励孩子做家务有好处。后面的内容是对这个观点的进一步阐述和解释。因此答案为D。8．选A 写作意图题。根据文章的最后两段可知，作者邀请读者针对这个问题发表看法，并提供了邮箱地址，交代了注意事项。因此答案为A。语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。论述了大学教育方面的问题。人们总认为，上大学是成功的唯一途径，大学教育的价值承载着太多的压力。而在现实社会中，有专业技能的学生更受欢迎。9．选B 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句中的“We’vebeentellingstudentsandtheirfamiliesforyearsthatcollegeistheonlywaytosucceedintheeconomyandofcoursethere’salotoftruthtothat”可知，多年来我们一直在告诉学生和家长上大学是成功的唯一途径。由此可知，人们都认为，没有大学学历就不能成功。故B项正确。10．选D 词义猜测题。根据下文“Europe’sfocusonearlyeducationratherthanpostsecondarylearning”可知，该短语的宾语意为“欧洲专注于早期教育而不是后高中教育”，由此可推知，要从欧洲的这种方法中学习。故该词意为“向……学习”。故D项正确。5\n11．选C 推理判断题。根据第五段第一句中的“Shesuggestedtwoavenuesforimprovingthesituation：increasingvocational(职业的)technicaltrainingprograms”以及最后一段最后一句中的“because’employersaredesperate’forworkerswiththeseskills”可推知，社会更需要有专业技能的学生。故C项正确。12．选A 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句中的“warnsthat’wemayhaveoverdonethemessage’oncollege...Sawhillsaid”以及下文中她的建议可推知，Ms.Sawhill认同“大学教育的价值承载着太多的压力”这一观点。故A项正确。5
