1. 此题为细节理解题，B为答案。在文章第3段的第2，3句可以证明选项B的正确。A的错误在于“earn an honest living”，为了生存Jamal和哥哥Salim
在流浪途中也有行骗的时候。文章并没有明说贫民窟因为国家的发展已经消失了，而从下面作者对中国的联想可以想到贫富目前依然是并存的，所以C错误。 从“Jamal and his brother grow and travel across India”可以知道Jamal并没有一直呆在童年时的贫民窟，所以D错误。
2．答案为D。电影并没有揭示通过个人奋斗而成为百万富翁的秘诀，电影是通过Jamal获奖的经历来讲述在印度这样的发展中国家穷人的生活现状，从中可见社会和经济的高速发展下贫富的悬殊。
3．答案为D。从文章的最后一段可以知道该电影最吸引作者的地方在于“how we
could relate to the scenarios (情节) presented in the movie”，比情节更重要的是给观众提供了“the window onto the social and economic situations in Asia”。
4．推理判断题。Jamal 和 Salim回忆童年这一幕让作者联想到在中国的朋友家望出去，简陋的平房和高楼并存，不由让作者感叹“It was amazing how affluence and poverty could live so close together.”。所以答案是C。作者两年前在中国，从第2段的“halfway around the globe”可推论出作者现在不可能是在中国。提名Oscar并不意味着可以获Oscar，此电影受到有亚洲经历和印度朋友的作者的喜爱，并不等于只有这样的人才会喜爱这部电影。推理一定要合理。
5．答案为A。此文的写作目的是介绍一部Oscar提名的电影，是一篇影评。D可以是电影的拍摄目的之一，但不是本文的目的。

1、C。主旨大意题，本文主要通过Nadia这个典型的例子引出现在年轻人都喜欢网上阅读，而不太选择读书的情况，之后展开了人们对于网上阅读对学生所起影响的不同看法：有赞成的，有反对的。正反方都展现了各自的观点及看法。
2、B。(第二题答案是B，对此错误Teens小编特此致歉！)
A项错在Nadia doesn’t do well in her studies，文章第三段说明Nadia考试得分都是A或B说明成绩很不错。B选项通过Nadia用网络做的事情可以看出，由social networking也就是socializing社交；听音乐、还有阅读别人的文章和作评论。所以B正确，同时排除C和D。
3、B。倒数第二段主旨是前两句话：网络创造了一种新的阅读，学校、社会不应该忽略它，因为做网络阅读更促进了年轻人去阅读和写作，而不是去看电视。所以使用Zachary Sims这个既爱读普通书籍又爱网上阅读的例子来突出体现网上阅读的特殊优势—互动性。
4、C。细节题，根据文章第三段最后一句话即可得知答案。
5、D。本文摆出了两方面观点，所以较客观，所以A错误。根据第四段可排除B项。C 选项是干扰项，干扰性很大，但却不是正确答案：因为这只是部分人的观点，并不代表所有人的观点；且文中未提及网上阅读时间对于学习成绩的有直接的不良影响。根据文章第二段可得知答案D。

1-3 BCD
1．B。2012年奥运会没有UK足球队的原因在第四、五段。奥组委(IOC)只承认代表一个国家的足球队，而英国却没有这样一个球队，因为它的四大组成部分：英格兰、苏格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰分别拥有自己的足球队。所以B正确。
2．C。解决这个问题很难的原因在倒数第三段和倒数第一段有所体现。总体来说因为要有一个UK足球队就会危及小一些的球队，他们不希望做任何危及现状的举动。
3．D。从文章可以看出UK的几大组成部分有很强的独立性，即使是英国首相Brown也不能命令它们拆散自己的球队。
