参考答案:
 
Tasting Morocco’s flavor (P3)
1. C。由第一段最后一句话“However, last year we wanted some warm weather, so we went to Morocco instead.”可知C为正确答案。
2. A。由上文“I must stress that traveling is not as expensive as you may think.”以及下文“so if you book in advance going abroad is sometimes cheaper than traveling within a country”可知这里的budget airlines指的是“廉价航空公司”,所以答案为A
3. B。由第四段“We stayed in Marrakech, a city that excites your senses. Sights, smells, tastes and sounds filled the air. The city was alive from morning till night”可知Marrakech是一个繁华的、有生机的城市,所以B项正确。A文中提到城市里的喧闹声,但是作者没有认为它过于喧闹和商业化;第四段提到了“The alleyways that snaked out from the central square were like mazes made up of lanterns and spices.”而C选项的“sales of lanterns and spices”不对;D选项的clean and orderly文中没有提及。
4. D。由第三段的“But on our first morning in Morocco, the deep blue sky seemed endless and the sun blazed down with a light wind running through the air. How refreshing it was to be awake at last.”可知作者到了摩洛哥之后,天气开始变好,所以A项不对;由倒数第二段“The tea is sweet and strong with a powerful scent. We indulged in such delights morning, afternoon and night.”可知B不对;由最后一段“The culture is so different to that of Europe, but there are still many similarities with Asia.”可知C不对;由最后一句话“There is an interesting fusion of traditions and values that challenge previous perceptions.”可知D正确。

Follow your body clock (P5)
1. C。由第二段“Our bodies are exactly the same – meaning there is an ideal time to do different tasks, according to The Wall Street Journal.”以及下文进一步介绍的不同时间段最适合做的事情可推知C为正确答案。
2. B。由第四段“This is because our body temperature starts rising just before we wake up. As it continues to increase, our memory, alertness (机敏) and concentration all improve gradually and reach the peak in the late morning.”可推知B正确。文中只提到了体温从我们睡醒后开始上升,但并没有提什么时候体温达到峰值,所以A不对;由下文可知一天中我们最容易分神的时间段为中午到下午四点,所以C不对;由倒数第二段“As for the best time to exercise, it would be from about 3 pm to 6 pm. That is when our lungs and muscles perform the best.”可知D不对。
3. B。由第六段“When it comes to doing creative work, you may be surprised to know that we do it best when we are tired”可知B正确。
4. B。最后一段通过两组老鼠的实验结果对比,告诉我们有规律的饮食习惯,有益身体健康,所以B项正确。

2. AReflect on的意思是“反思”。最后四段是作者从蛇皮上得到的启迪和思考:我们也应该反省自己,有没有不适合自己、需要丢弃的东西,这样我们才能发展和进步。
3. B。从倒数第二段Sarah的反应可以看出,她对作者的回答很满意。
4. D。作者对Sarah做出的解释清晰明白,我们可以看到作者是个很有逻辑性的人;由蛇皮联想到人的除旧迎新,说明作者是个很有想法的人。
5. A。全文以Sarah发现一张蜕下来的蛇皮为引,作者阐述了自己的观点,我们也应该时常反省自己,并且应该像蛇一样,丢弃那些已经不适合自己发展的东西。
