Answer 1

分析 全文大意：
英国网球选手Andy Murray在能实现大满贯梦想之前，他等了7年．
在2012年9月11号，在美国公开赛决赛中，Murray打败了卫冕冠军Novak Djokovic．
那场比赛势均力敌，共持续了四个小时54分钟．他们两个都是好朋友，并且Djokovic只比他小7天．当Murray在他最近的四次大满贯中获得亚军的同时，Djokovic已经获得了他比赛生涯的五次冠军．在询问Murray是否能在第五次大满贯中获得头筹时，他自己也说不能确定．

解答 41．A 细节题．由全文第一句话可知，Andy Murray努力了七年的原因是为了实现大满贯之梦．
42．C 细节题．题目要求是找 Novak Djokovic 这个人的相关信息，因此考生要注意文中提及这个人的重要语句，在做题时，根据信息进行判断．C项正确，故选C．
43．D 推理题．题目要求判断美国公开赛之前Andy Murray的人物心理，因此考生需在提到"美国公开赛（US Open Final）"的语段中寻找有关人物心理的语句，由第四段第一句话可以得知．故选D．
44．A 推理题．题目要求"是什么让Andy Murray成为英国人的骄傲"，一般整个事件的"意义"会出现在文章的最后，因此可以在文章中的最后一句得知答案，选A．
45．B 推理题/语言知识题．考生如果没有词语的知识储备，不知道这个短语的意思，可以从相关的上下文进行推测．根据原句，可知是由while引导的并列句，表示转折，而且是在做同类的比较，可推测是"亚军"．

点评 解答此类题，需根据题意，采取不同的解答技巧，比如，如果是"细节题"，就着重在文中搜寻相关的细节，如果是"推理题"，便要联系相关语句进行推理判断．只有掌握了相关的答题技巧，才能在作答中节约时间，并且准确作答．
