Here are some of the strangest buildings in the world. Habitat 67, Montreal, Canada Habitat 67 is a very interesting arrangement of cubes, which looks like the building blocks that children play with. It is pretty interesting how it was designed. In its material sense, the cube is a symbol of stability. It looks so original and at the same time comfortable for living. It was created as a main attraction for Expo 67, one of the world’s largest universal expositions (博览会) where housing was one of the main themes. The Basket Building, Ohio, United States The Longaberger Basket Company building in Newark, Ohio might just be a strangest office building in the world. The 180,000-square-foot building, a copy of the company’s famous market basket, cost $ 30 million and took two years to complete. Many experts tried to persuade Dave Longaberger to change his plans, but he wanted an exact copy of the real thing. The Crooked House, Sopot, Poland Finished in 2003, the Crooked House has an extraordinary and amazing structure. Its design was based on the pictures of polish artist Jan Marcin Szancer and Swedish painter Per Dahlberg. It looks as if it had been taken from a cartoon: The building lines are not straight, but they are balanced, so the house is not ugly at all, just strange! The interesting part is how builders managed to create this genius idea, - 26 - but the house is a fact and everyone admires their creativity. La Pedrera, Spain It is situated in the Eixample district of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The story of the house is pretty interesting. The house was designed by Antoni Gaudi and built for a married couple. It is an extraordinary but stylish building considered to be highly unconventional-there is not even one straight line! 1. Which of the buildings above is associated with a toy? A. Habitat 67. B. The Basket Building. C. The Crooked House. D. La Pedrera. 2. What can we learn about the Basket Building? A. It was built for exhibition. B. It was designed following the pictures. C. It was constructed according to its original design. D. It might be the strangest office building in the world. 3. What do the Crooked House and La Pedrera have in common? A. They both look very ugly. B. They are built by Antoni Gaudi C. Their design patterns are common. D. Their construction lines are bent. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了四个令人惊奇的现代建筑。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Habitat 67, Montreal, Canada中Habitat 67 is a very interesting arrangement of cubes, which looks like the building blocks that children play with.(Habitat 67是一个非常有趣的立方体排列,它看起来像孩子们玩的积木)可知,Habitat 67与玩具有关。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Basket Building, Ohio, United States中的Many experts tried to - 26 - persuade Dave Longaberger to change his plans, but he wanted an exact copy of the real thing.(许多专家试图说服Dave Longaberger改变他的计划,但他想要的是真货的一模一样的复制品)可知,这个建筑物是根据最初的设计建造的。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Crooked House, Sopot, Poland中的It looks as if it had been taken from a cartoon: The building lines are not straight, but they are balanced, so the house is not ugly at all, just strange!(它看起来就像从一幅漫画:建筑的线条不直,但它们是平衡的,所以房子一点也不丑,只是奇怪!)和La Pedrera, Spain中的It is an extraordinary but stylish building considered to be highly unconventional-there is not even one straight line!(这是一座非凡而时尚的建筑,被认为是非常不寻常的——甚至没有一条直线!)可知,这两个建筑物的共同点都没有用直线设计。故选D。 【点睛】在细节考查题中有一类事实细节题 。该题属于细节类型的阅读理解题,一般只针对某个特定的细节,题型可以多种多样。此类题型一般分两种。第一种是直接理解题,在原文中可以直接找到答案。第二种是词义转换题,正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的转换。做此类试题一定要抓住事件发生的时间、地点、人物、发展过程和结局等环节,所选答案一定要符合原文,切不可望文生义。本题第2小题,根据The Basket Building, Ohio, United States中的Many experts tried to persuade Dave Longaberger to change his plans, but he wanted an exact copy of the real thing.(许多专家试图说服Dave Longaberger改变他的计划,但他想要的是真货的一模一样的复制品)可知,这个建筑物是根据最初的设计建造的。故选C。 B I grew up in a family that was middle class in terms of finances. Dad worked hard to support the family and mom tried to save a little bit of money while making sure we had enough food to eat and clothes to wear. One of their greatest desires was to raise decent and loving children who had an opportunity to finish college. Of their four children, my brother, Gener, seemed to be the most sociable. He experienced life by doing simple things that none of us risked doing. Gener never hesitated to learn new things. He tried his hands at a number of things. He did a lot of things for friends, often not being paid for them. Gener did not have a history of any health problems from his very young age to adulthood. However, one day he came home, ate his dinner and informed mom and dad - 26 - that he was retiring to bed. That evening, my “healthy” brother died suddenly of cardiac arrest. All my family were so sorrowful. At the funeral, along with the sadness, my parents and brother felt so much pride. There were so many people that came. Strangers to my parents, each were relating a story of how they were touched by Gener. A janitor (看门人) came to say that practically every day Gener brought him a sandwich. Finally mom found out why Gener took so many sandwiches to school! Gener never told her what he did with the sandwiches. Then there was a man who came in bringing money saying that Gener lent him some when he was down and out. Gener never asked him back for the money. From the school president to the janitor…people came because of his goodness of heart and deeds. In the end, my parents realized that even at a young age of 26, my brother lived a full life and was very instrumental in helping others live theirs a little better. 4. Which of the following could best describe the author’s child life? A. Poor but happy. B. Luxurious and free. C. Poor and stressful. D. Neither rich nor poor. 5. What can we learn from the passage? A Gener passed away unexpectedly. B. Gener was the eldest child in the family. C. Gener was unwilling to learn new things. D. Gener had poor health during his childhood. 6. Why did the author’s parents feel proud? A. Because Gener was moved by others. B. Because Gener helped others live better. C. Because Gener had contributed a lot to his family. D. Because Gener took so many sandwiches to school. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A happy son. - 26 - B. A secret helper. C. A courageous stranger. D. A sincere donor. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. B 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是作者平时身体健康的哥哥一直在家人不知道的情况下默默帮助他人。在出乎意料去世之后,因他平时的善心感动许多人,很多人参加他的葬礼并怀念他。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句话I grew up in a family that was middle class in terms of finances.(我生长在一个在经济上属于中产阶级的家庭)可知,作者的童年生活“既不富裕也不贫穷。”故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的That evening, my “healthy” brother died suddenly of cardiac arrest. All my family were so sorrowful.(那天晚上,我“健康”的哥哥突然死于心脏骤停。我的家人都很悲伤)可知,杰纳意外去世了。B项错误,因为文中并未提及他是最年长的。C、D项表达的意思与原文相反。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的At the funeral, along with the sadness, my parents and brother felt so much pride.(在葬礼上,伴随着悲伤,我的父母和哥哥感到非常自豪)以及最后一段中的内容In the end, my parents realized that even at a young age of 26, my brother lived a full life and was very instrumental in helping others live theirs a little better.(最后,我的父母意识到,即使只有年轻的26岁,我的哥哥就已经过着充实的生活,而且在帮助别人过得更好方面起到了很大的作用)可知,作者的父母感到自豪,因为杰纳一生都在致力于帮助其他人生活得更好。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文,可以知道杰纳短暂的一生都瞒着家人在帮助他人,在他的葬礼上很多我们不认识人都来分享他助人的故事,令我们引以为傲。由此可知,文章主要讲述了“一个秘密的帮手”。C项有干扰性,我们只是对来参加他的葬礼的人感到陌生,但这些人对于杰纳来说不一定就是陌生人。故选B。 C - 26 - A serious and widespread desert locust outbreak in some parts of Somalia, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan and Eritrea has caused panic in the agriculture and aviation sectors. The invasion, which has lasted for over a month despite efforts by respective governments to control it, has led to the destruction of crops and pastures (牧场) threatening food security in the region despite a promising harvest following successful rainfall. The outbreak has also caused panic in the aviation sector following a recent incident where an Ethiopian Airline passenger plane was forced by a swarm (群) of locusts to divert from landing in Dire Dawn Airport in east-central Ethiopia to Bole International Airport in Ethiopia’s capital Addis Ababa. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization or FAO, a specialized agency of the United Nations that leads international efforts to defeat hunger and improve nutrition and food security, the present outbreak is the worst in 25 years. The UN agency attributed the invasion to unusual weather and climate conditions, including heavy and widespread rains since October 2019. It warned a further increase in locust swarms is likely to continue until June due to the continuation of favorable ecological conditions for locust breeding. The locusts have already destroyed 175,000 acres of farmland in Somalia and Ethiopia, according to the FAO. The desert locust is the most dangerous of the nearly one dozen species of locusts. A typical desert locust swarm can contain up to 150 million locusts per square kilometer, according to the IGAD. An average swarm can destroy as many food crops in a day as is sufficient to feed 2,500 people. 8. What is the result of the desert locust outbreak on East Africa? A. It has led to a disease outbreak. B. It has caused the weather to change. C. It has created fear in agriculture and aviation. D. It has threatened the safety of the people there. 9. What does the underlined word “divert” in Paragraph 3 mean? - 26 - A. Take a different route. B. Take off from an airport. C. Split off from a new place. D. Slide away from somewhere. 10. What can we learn about the desert locust outbreak according to the UN agency? A. Locust breeding is slower and slower. B. There will possibly be a decrease in locust swarms. C It is related to unusual weather and climate conditions. D. The ecological conditions are bad for locust breeding. 11. How does the author prove the desert locust is the most dangerous of the locust species? A. By describing a process. B. By comparison. C. By statistics. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇科普说明文。文章讲述的是沙漠蝗虫肆虐,对于一些国家的农业和航空也造成危害。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容A serious and widespread desert locust outbreak in some parts of Somalia, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan and Eritrea has caused panic in the agriculture and aviation sectors.(在索马里、肯尼亚、埃塞俄比亚、苏丹和厄立特里亚的一些地区发生了严重和广泛的沙漠蝗虫疫情,在农业和航空部门造成了恐慌)可知,东非沙漠蝗虫的爆发给农业和航空业带来了恐慌。故选C。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段划线词所在句中前后部分可以了解到:蝗虫爆发也在航空业中导致恐慌,一架埃塞俄比亚的客机被迫改变航线,原本从Dire Dawn Airport机场降落改为在Bole International Airport降落。由此可知,划线词的意思是“走另一条路。”故选A。 - 26 - 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段中的The UN agency attributed the invasion to unusual weather and climate conditions, including heavy and widespread rains since October 2019.(联合国机构将入侵归咎于不寻常的天气和气候条件,包括自2019年10月以来的大雨和大范围降雨)可知,根据联合国机构,沙漠蝗虫的爆发与不寻常的天气和气候条件有关。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章的最后一段The desert locust is the most dangerous of the nearly one dozen species of locusts. A typical desert locust swarm can contain up to 150 million locusts per square kilometer, according to the IGAD. An average swarm can destroy as many food crops in a day as is sufficient to feed 2,500 people.(沙漠蝗虫是近12种蝗虫中最危险的一种。根据东非政府间发展组织的数据,一个典型的沙漠蝗群每平方公里可容纳多达1.5亿蝗虫。一个普通的蜂群一天能摧毁多达2500人的粮食作物。”作者列举了一个典型的沙漠蝗群每平方公里可以容纳1.5亿只蝗虫。一个普通的沙漠蝗群一天可以摧毁足够供给2500人的粮食作物)可知,作者通过数据来说明沙漠蝗虫是危害最大的蝗种。故选C。 【点睛】推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上,做出一定的推理判断,从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话,也可能是某几句话,所以,推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案:即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。推理判断题的题干中通常含infer, suggest, imply, conclude, indicate等标志性词语。本题第3小题,根据文章第五段中的The UN agency attributed the invasion to unusual weather and climate conditions, including heavy and widespread rains since October 2019.(联合国机构将入侵归咎于不寻常的天气和气候条件,包括自2019年10月以来的大雨和大范围降雨)可知,根据联合国机构,沙漠蝗虫的爆发与不寻常的天气和气候条件有关。故选C。 D TerraCycle is a company that has recycled and upcycled (升级改造) just about any garbage it can get its hands on.

(现在,TerraCycle希望通过一本新书《让垃圾变得伟大:TerraCycle家庭零废物生活指南》来帮助家庭减少浪费)可知,这本书的目的是为了帮助家庭减少浪费。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的后两句Even the physical book itself is a bit of an inspiration. It’s printed on tree-free paper and is a reminder that there is usually a sustainable (可持续的) alternative to many of the products that we waste.(甚至实体书本身也有一些灵感。它印在没有树木的纸上,提醒我们通常有一个可持续的选择来替代我们浪费的许多产品)可知,这本书的用纸不是由树制成的,这本书是环保的。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文尤其最后一段作者的描述Whether the book inspires you to get a little clever at dealing with your waste or simply inspires you to think before you buy or before you throw, anyone who is concerned about the amount of waste our culture creates will find some ideas here.

Acknowledge that you’re angry. When you’re angry, you notice it in your body.___17___. You are literally hot and bothered. ___18___. The standard advice here is to take deep breaths, in and out. When you’re really in anger though, and the breathing, counting or similar techniques aren’t working, it pays to take cues from your physiological sensations. Ask yourself what your anger wants to do. Give yourself a time out. How do you do the exercise above when you're in the middle of a face-to-face conversation? Call a personal timeout.___19___. This also aids in decreasing anger and or de-escalating the situation. A timeout allows time for you to reflect on the actual trigger that manifested the anger, which helps with identifying the trigger to prevent it from reoccurring. Change the subject of the conversation. Let’s say you’ve taken the advice above, but you’re still feeling heated. If you or your partner/co-worker/friend still feel hotheaded, changing the topic of conversation can also be a good way to cope with anger in the moment.___20___. If things are heated, changing the subject will alter the trajectory of the conversation - 26 - as a whole. By cooler heads prevail, we don’t mean this. Take what you’ve learned here and cool it, hothead! A. Follow your body’s cues, safely and slowly B. Ask yourself what emotion is behind the anger C. You experience it physically far more than you do cognitively D. There are things you can do in the moment to calm yourself, though E. Focusing on something else helps change your mood and how you will respond F. I would like you to be supportive of me and only give me your input when I ask for it G. Walking away gives you time to calm down and collect your thoughts before responding 【答案】16. D 17. C 18. A 19. G 20. E 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章告诉我们如何消除愤怒情绪。 【16题详解】 根据上文提示“我们都会时不时地经历瞬间爆发的愤怒”。再根据下文提示“下面,治疗师提供了他们最好的建议,在你的脾气控制你之前控制它。”承接上下文,D项There are things you can do in the moment to calm yourself, though(不过,你可以做一些事情让自己冷静下来)切题。故选D。 【17题详解】 根据上文提示“当你生气时,你会注意到它在你的身体里。”再根据下文提示“你真的又热又烦。”承接上下文,C项You experience it physically far more than you do cognitively(你身体上的体验比你认知上的要多得多)切题。选项中的physically与前文 When you’re angry, you notice it in your body.中的body相呼应。故选C。 【18题详解】 此题是小标题,应该用短小精悍的祈使句,所以在A/B项中选择。再根据下文内容“这里的标准建议是深呼吸,吸气,呼气。当你真的生气时,呼吸、计数或类似的方法不起作用,从你的生理感觉中寻找线索是有好处的。”由此推知,A项 Follow your body’s cues, safely and slowly(安全而缓慢地跟随身体的暗示)切题。关键词是cues。故选A。 【19题详解】 - 26 - 根据上文提示“叫个人暂时休息。”再根据下文提示“这也有助于减少愤怒和缓和局势。”承接上下文,G项Walking away gives you time to calm down and collect your thoughts before responding(走开会给你时间冷静下来,在回应之前整理一下思绪)切题。故选G。 【20题详解】 根据小标题Change the subject of the conversation.(改变谈话的主题)可知,E项Focusing on something else helps change your mood and how you will respond(专注于其他事情有助于改变你的情绪和你的反应)切题。故选E。 第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分) 第一节完形填空(共20小题:每小题1.5分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A,B.C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At stations in London goes a tradition that warm and inspirational words are written on White Boards for emotional support.
