【答案解析】
1. C 主旨大意题。通读全文我们不难发现作者是在谈论北京的空气污染。A、B两项表示的是政府在治理过程中的措施和进展。D项明显不符文意。
2. D 细节归纳题。航空飞行表演是因为浓雾被取消，这不是治理空气污染的措施，恰恰是空气污染造成的结果。
3. A 推理判断题。根据短文中一位高一男生所说的：尽管在治理方面取得了一些进展，但仍然令人担忧(the air quality of Beijing is still worrying though)，由此可推断：到2008年北京奥运会时北京要达到生态城市的目标，治理工作任重道远。
4. A 细节判断题。根据短文第五段But thanks to recent measures, the capital has made some progress可知，北京的空气质量比以前有所改善。去年空气质量指数达到良的为224天，而1998年只有100天。
5. C 细节理解题。短文第三段表述二十多年来，科学家们认为高度自信是成功的关键，但从第四段中的Now, new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful一句可知新的研究表明高度自信可能不是成功的关键。
6. C 细节理解题。根据短文中People with high self-esteem can have big egos和People with high self-esteem tend to think more of themselves两句分析可知。
7. D 推断题。从下文He believes that violent and wicked people often have the highest self-esteem of all一句推断，句中的better 表示的意义必须是同violent and wicked的意义相反。(责任编辑：www.360gaokao.com)
