導(dǎo)讀
這是一篇記敘文，主要介紹了俄羅斯的網(wǎng)球明星Maria Sharapova的成長歷程。
詳析
1. D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第一段的總體介紹中可以看出，她獲
得了 22次單打冠軍，3次雙打冠軍和3次大滿貫冠軍， 一共28次冠軍。
2. A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第二段詳細(xì)介紹莎拉波娃的成長歷程。從第
—句中的“she beat Serena Williams and won her first singles title. ”可知她在20M年第一次獲得單打冠軍。
3. C 推理判斷題。從第一段 “Maria Yuryevna Sharapova
(bom on April 19.1987) .”可知她出生于 1987 年4 月 19 日，從“She became the World No. 1 for the first rime on Aug 22.2005. ”可知第一次取得世界冠軍是在 2005年8月22曰，因此，她當(dāng)年18歲。
4. C推理判斷題^從第二段的“After winning the number
one ranking again in May 2008.Sharapova's shoulder problems made her out of the game for nearly ten months”可推測出她這段時間離開賽場去處理她的 傷病。
5. A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。她在2004年首次獲得單打冠軍，進(jìn)入前 十名，而不是排名第一。
B項，她現(xiàn)在的排名是14.而 不是最后一句說的12;C項，在第二段中提到在2007 年的賽季中她的排名首次跌出了前五，她也就是在這 一年跌出前五名，因此與原文是相符的。
障礙句分析
Sharapova's 2007 season saw her ranking fall out of the top 5 for the first time in two years,because she got injured.
在 2007年的賽事中，Sharapova由于受傷在近兩年中首次跌出了前五名。
這句話運用了擬人的手法，把“Sharapova's 2007 season” 作為主語，它看到她的排名跌出了前五位。“got injured”意
為“受傷的”。
