No other art form creates excitement and moves the heart in the way that opera does, especially when performed by a great singer. Opera is an important part of the Western classical music tradition. It uses music, words, and actions to bring a dramatic story to life. Opera started in Italy at the end of the 16th century and later became popular throughout Europe. Over the years, it has responded to various musicals. In recent decades, much wider audiences have been introduced to opera through modern recording technology. Some singers have become celebrities thanks to performing on radio, on TV, and in the cinema. However, in recent years, opera has been facing serious challenges. One current challenge to opera is economics. The shortage of money raises the broader question of how much should be paid to support opera singers and other artists. Society seems to accept the large salaries paid to business managers and the multimilliondollar contracts given to sports athletes. But what about opera singers? Somehow, people have the idea that artists can be creative only if they suffer in poverty, but this is unrealistic. If artists, including opera singers, lack the support they need, valuable talent is wasted. Not only the shortage of money, but also the way money is managed in the opera world has led to hardships. Principal singers are generally paid performance fees once they complete a show. They typically receive nothing during the many weeks of rehearsal (排练) before a show starts. Another problem faced by opera is how to meet the demands of audiences who are influenced by popular entertainment. Pop singers are often judged as much on the basis of how they look as how they sound. These demands may be unrealistic and possibly harmful. Opera singers simply cannot make a sound big enough to fill a large theater or concert hall without a microphone if their body weight is too low. Emphasizing physical appearance over singing ability may cause audiences to miss out on the human voice at its best. There are no easy solutions to opera's problems and there are many different opinions about the value of opera. However, every year many young people register for music courses with hopes and dreams of developing their talent in this special art form. The fact that opera has survived many obstacles and continues to attract the rising generation shows that it remains a respectable art form full of value. 4.Which of the statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Opera singers' life stories are dramatic. B.Opera will soon appear on TV and in films. C.Opera fans thank celebrities for performing. D.Opera develops by adapting to new conditions. 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Over the years, it has responded to various musicals.”可推知,歌剧适应新的状况而得以发展,故选D。 5.What can we know from Paragraphs 2 and 3? A.Opera singers are financially insecure. B.Opera singers waste their valuable talent. C.Opera singers get paid before the show. D.Opera singers perform better if they are poor. 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“One current challenge to opera is economics.”以及第三段第一句“Not only the shortage of money, but also the way money is managed in the opera world has led to hardships.”可知,歌剧演唱家的经济是有问题的,不安全的,故选A。 6.What does the author try to say in Paragraph 4? A.Popular culture has had a positive influence on opera B.Audiences know best how opera should be performed. C.Microphones should be used to make opera more enjoyable. D.Opera singers' voices should be valued more than their looks. 解析:选D 推理归纳题。根据第四段最后一句“Emphasizing physical appearance over singing ability may cause audiences to miss out on the human voice at its best.”可知,歌剧演唱家的声音要比外貌重要得多,故选D。 7.What would be the best title for this passage? A.The Economic Challenge to Opera B.Opera Faced with the Difficulties C.Opera as Part of Popular Culture D.The Historical Context of Opera 解析:选B 标题归纳题。根据最后一段第一句“There are no easy solutions to opera's problems and there are many different opinions about the value of opera.”并结合全文的整体内容可知,本文主要讨论的是歌剧所面临的问题和挑战,故选B。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2018·郑州市高三第三次质量预测)Yesterday I was walking along a busy road when I noticed a young man standing near the pedestrian crossing,selling toys.

I showed the hole to God, and thought about it __6__ (careful) for a long time, “I wonder __7__ my sorrows could be.”He smiled a gentle smile __8__ said, “My child, they're all here with me.” I asked God why he gave me __9__ boxes, and why the black one __10__ (have) a hole. “My child, the gold one is for you to count your blessings; the black one is for you to let go.” 1.to hold hold和定语从句中的谓语gave之间没有连词,故此处用不定式作后置定语。 2.joys 空处与sorrows形成呼应,故用名词的复数形式joys,下文的“my joys and sorrows”也是信息提示。 3.heavier 根据while的提示可知,前后句表示逻辑上的对比关系,且与each day呼应,故用形容词比较级作表语。 4.curiosity 介词后跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语,故此处用名词curiosity作介词With的宾语。 5.my 考查代词。此处用形容词性物主代词修饰名词sorrows,在句子中作定语。 6.carefully 副词修饰动词、副词、形容词或者整个句子,在句子中作状语,故此处用副词carefully修饰动词thought。 7.where 结合下文的“My child, they're all here with me”可推知,作者疑惑的是自己的悲伤的去向,故用where引导宾语从句,在从句中作地点状语。 8.and 根据语境可知,动词smiled和said表示的是两个连续的动作,故用连词and。 9.the boxes不是第一次在文章中出现,故用定冠词the修饰,表示特指。 10.had 根据全文内容可知,文章讲述的是发生在过去的事情,故此处用have的过去式形式。 Topic 2 Art (Book 6·Unit 1) [主课文晨读] A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages (5th to 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created a feeling of respect and love for God. But when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance(15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values gradually replaced those held in the Middle Ages. People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess their own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces Impressionism(late 19th to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal, from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles. the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists,who lived and worked in Paris. The Impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angry about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous. Modern Art (20th century to today) At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepted as the beginning of what we call “modern art”. the Impressionists encouraged artists to look at their There are scores of modern art styles, but without the Impressionists, many of these painting styles might not exist. On the one hand, some modern art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates on certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them. On the other hand, some paintings of modern art are so realistic that they look like photographs. These styles are so different. Who can predict what painting styles there will be in the future? ❶as引导原因状语从句 ❷动词不定式作表语 ❸It is/was evident that ...“显然……” ❹“特殊疑问词+不定式”结构作表语 ❺条件状语从句的虚拟语气,表示与过去事实相反的情况 ❻without引导的含蓄虚拟条件句 ❼介词短语置于句首,句子完全倒装 ❽This is because ...这是因为……(because后跟原因) [单词“分类记”] (一)阅读障碍词汇(识其形·知其义) 1.gallery n. 美术陈列室;画廊 2.conventional adj. 常规的;传统的;因循守旧的 3.ridiculous adj. 荒谬的;可笑的 4.controversial adj. 争论的;争议的 5.aggressive adj. 敢作敢为的;侵略的;好斗的 6.contemporary adj. 当代的;同时代的 (二)高考高频词汇(知其义·写其形) 1.abstract adj. 抽象的;深奥的 n. 摘要 2.aim n. 目标;目的 vi.& vt. 瞄准;(向某方向)努力 3.evident adj. 明显的;明白的 4.attempt n. 努力;尝试;企图 vt. 尝试;企图 5.specific adj. 确切的;特定的 6.figure n. 画像;身材;数字 7.allergic adj. 过敏性的;对……过敏的 8.reputation n. 名声;名誉 (三)活学活用词汇(记得清·用得活) Ⅰ.根据词性和词义写出下列单词 1.faith n.信任;信心;信念→faithful adj.忠实的;守信的→faithfully adv.忠实地 2.typical adj.典型的;有代表性的→type n.类型;典型 3.adopt vt.采用;采纳;收养→adopted adj.收养的;领养的→adoption n.收养 4.possess vt.拥有;具有;支配→possession n.(尤作复数)所有;财产 5.coincidence n.巧合(的事);(事情、口味、故事等)相合→coincident adj.同时发生的;同一时间发生的 6.predict vt.预言;预告;预测→prediction n.预言→predictor n.预言者 7.preference n.喜爱;偏爱→prefer v.喜爱;偏爱 8.appeal vi.有感染力;呼吁;求助 vt.将……上诉 n.呼吁;恳求→appealing adj.吸引人的;动人的 Ⅱ.用所给词的适当形式填空 1.Mr.White is the adopted son of Mrs.Green, who adopted him when his parents died 20 years ago.Thanks to her adoption,_Mr.White could receive a good education and became an engineer.(adopt) 2.As a predictor,_he often made wrong predictions though he tried his best to predict everything.(predict) 3.He possessed these houses.

The rock drawings discovered in Valcamonica were the first prehistoric symbols of their kind recognized anywhere in the world.UNESCO first recognized the drawings in 1979 when about 140,000 were discovered, however, since then many more have been uncovered. These drawings are spread all across the valley.The carvings began to taper_off during the Iron Age and fewer appeared after that.The last period has been attributed to (归功于……) the Camunni people.Still there are drawings that have been identified as being from the 19th century.Many of these were created using the technique of engraving (雕刻). Some of the figures discovered in Valcamonica have been superimposed (叠印) without any order, but in most cases they appear in logical orders and also explain the relationship between each picture or symbol to tell a story. The first known modern report of the rock carvings was in 1909 when Walther Laeng happened upon two decorated rocks in Capo di Ponte.Scholars only took interest in the drawings in the 1920s.More rocks with engravings were soon found in the areas nearby and research into their history began.In the 1930s comprehensive study campaigns were undertaken. It was after the Second World War that the cataloging and mapping of the engravings began.This task was taken up by various teams of experts from Italy and other countries that were led by Laeng.In 1955 preservation work on the rocks began. In 1968, a large series of conferences were held where scholars from all over the world met to discuss the rock drawings, which give us some idea of what various societies of the past might have been like. 4.What do we know about Valcamonica's pictures? A.They tell a long whole story. B.They are interrelated in some ways. C.They were carved 8,000 years ago. D.They were first discovered in 1979. 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第一段中的“Valcamonica's pictures show various scenes and are connected through common themes like magic, war, navigation and agriculture.”可知,梵尔卡莫尼卡谷地的岩画展示了不同的场景,并且通过共同的主题连接在一起。 5.The underlined part “taper off” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “________”. A.turn up B.go up C.die out D.stand out 解析:选C 词义猜测题。由画线部分下文中的“fewer appeared after that”可知,这些雕刻在铁器时代逐渐减少,故由此推断,taper off意为“逐渐减少”。 6.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A.The history of the rock drawings. B.The features of the rock drawings. C.The discovery of the rock drawings.

It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought. __1__ We are all familiar with it, but do you know the following facts? Silver will save your life. When buying a new car and finding yourself facing various choices, you can't think clearly. Your best choice is to go with silver. Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident. __2__ Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness. __3__ Tough prisoners and crazy patients? It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control. So it surely has a useful place and a purpose, other than decorating a dress or Barbie's dream house. Yellow makes you hungry. Yellow and orange are not recommended for use in kitchens, as they have a positive influence on your appetite. __4__ I'm not normally one for conspiracy (阴谋) theories — but perhaps there's something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow's effects. Color is an imaginary friend. Technically, it's all in our heads: color does not exist at all. __5__ So, if you start a heated debate over color combinations with someone that you are certain has a low IQ or is just colorblind, remember it's a pointless argument and you should drop it instantly. You're both wrong. A.Pink comforts the nerves. B.Blue is the most common favorite color. C.They are most noticeable on the road and in low light. D.Yellowcolored walls seldom leave us wanting more food. E.It can be the focus of our careers, our lifestyle and the fun we have. F.Then where would our restaurant owners be without the clever tricks? G.Color tries to make sense of the huge amount of information from the outer world. 1.选E 根据上文的“Color is in everything we touch, taste, smell and feel. It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought.”可知,色彩与人们的生活密切相关,可以唤起人们的情感。E项“色彩是人们职业、生活方式和娱乐的焦点”与此呼应,故选E项。 2.选C 根据上文的“Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident.”及下文的“Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness.”可知,银色引人注目,不易引起交通事故,故选C项。 3.选A 根据下文的“It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control.”可推知,本段所介绍的颜色有定心安神的作用,故选A项。 4.选F 根据下文的“I'm not normally one for conspiracy (阴谋) theories — but perhaps there's something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow's effects.”可推知应选F项,餐馆老板利用色彩的作用招揽更多的顾客。 5.选G 根据上文的“Color is an imaginary friends. Technically, it's all in our heads: color does not exist at all.”可推知,本段对色彩进行了综合性的客观描述,与G项吻合,故选G项。 Ⅲ.短文改错 (2018·湖北省武汉市武昌区高三调研考试) Living without an aim is like sailing without compass.

Others try to convey certain emotions. Poets use many different forms of poetry to express themselves. In this text, however, we will look at a few of the simpler forms. Some of the first poetry is nursery rhymes. These rhymes like the one on the right (A) are still a common type of children's poetry. The language is concrete but imaginative, and they delight small children because they rhyme, have strong rhythm and a lot of repetition. The poems may not make sense and even seem contradictory, but they are easy to learn and recite. By playing with the words in nursery rhymes, children learn about language. A Hush, little baby, don't say a word, Papa's going to buy you a mockingbird. If that mockingbird won't sing, Papa's going to buy you a diamond ring. If that diamond ring turns to brass, Papa's going to buy you a lookingglass. If that lookingglass gets broke, Papa's going to buy you a billygoat. If that billygoat runs away, Papa's going to buy you another today. Some simple poems are like B and C that list things. List poems have a flexible line length and repeated phrases which give both a pattern and a rhythm to the poem. B I saw a fishpond all on fire I saw a fishpond all on fire, I saw a house bow to a squire, I saw a person twelvefeet high, I saw a cottage in the sky, I saw a balloon made of lead, I saw a coffin drop down dead, I saw two sparrows run a race, I saw two horses making lace, I saw a girl just like a cat, I saw a kitten wear a hat, I saw a man who saw these too, And said though strange they all were true. C Our first football match We would have won ... if Jack had scored that goal, if we'd had just a few more minutes, if we had trained harder, if Ben had passed the ball to Joe, if we'd had thousands of fans screaming, if I hadn't taken my eye off the ball, if we hadn't stayed up so late the night before, if we hadn't taken it easy, if we hadn't run out of energy. We would have won ... if we'd been better! Another simple form of poem that students can easily write is the cinquain, a poem made up of five lines. With these, students can convey a strong picture in just a few words. Look at the examples (D and E) on the top of the next page. D Brother Beautiful, athletic Teasing, shouting, laughing Friend and enemy too Mine E Summer Sleepy, salty Drying, drooping, dreading Week in, week out Endless F A fallen blossom Is coming back to the branch. Look, a butterfly! (by Moritake) G Snow having melted, The whole village is brimful Of happy children. (by Issa) Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry that is made up of 17 syllables. It is not a traditional form of English poetry, but is very popular with English writers. It is easy to write and, like the cinquain, can give a clear picture and create a special feeling using the minimum of words. The two haiku poems (F and G) above are translations from the Japanese. Did you know that English speakers also enjoy other forms of Asian poetry — Tang poems from China in particular? A lot of Tang poetry has been translated into English. This Tang poem (H) is a translation from the Chinese. H On and on the river flows. Never looking back, Transformed into stone. Day by day upon the mountain top, wind and rain revolve. this stone would utter speech. (by Wang Jian) With so many different forms of poetry to choose from, students may eventually want to write poems of their own. It is easier than you might think and certainly worth a try! ❶why引导定语从句修饰先行词reasons ❷省略关系代词that的定语从句 ❸while“而,却”,表示两者之间的对比 ❹where引导地点状语从句 ❺省略if的虚拟条件句 [单词“分类记”] (一)阅读障碍词汇(识其形·知其义) 1.rhyme n. 韵;押韵;押韵的词 vi.& vt.

During the Tang Dynasty, poems were recited when lovers walked under the moonlight.Poems were also recited when soldiers fought on the battlefield.People recited them in the open air or at temple fairs. Tang Dynasty poets wrote poems to win fame and also to develop their temperament (性情).They poured out deep feelings for their friends and criticized injustice in the world through poems. In the Tang Dynasty scholars had to be poets. Their readers were not only people of high social position but also common people. Poets recited poems, women singers sang poems and other ranks of people, including old women and children, read Tang poems. This atmosphere affected foreigners who visited the country at that time.As a result, Tang poetry was introduced to some adjacent countries, like Japan and Vietnam. Tang poetry is a most brilliant page in the history of ancient Chinese literature.It's a miracle (奇迹) in the cultural history of mankind.The Tang Dynasty was a powerful empire with a vast territory.It inherited (继承) Chinese civilization that went back to ancient times, was combined with the best of other cultures and adopted the benefits of other nations in the world.Tang poetry wasn't the only spiritual wealth created by the Tang Dynasty people.Philosophy and religion, handwriting and painting, and music and dance all gained new peaks of development.Tang poetry, however, was the jewel in the crown and its greatest achievement. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。通过本文,我们可以更深入地了解唐诗的影响力和其对世界文化的贡献。 1.We can conclude from the passage that ________. A.only people in the Tang Dynasty created poems B.in total there were four famous poets in the Tang Dynasty C.the Tang Dynasty probably existed for about three centuries D.in the Tang Dynasty most common people were poets 解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句可推断出C项正确。 2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? A.Why the poets created poems. B.Some other kinds of spiritual wealth in the Tang Dynasty. C.The significance and influence of the Tang Dynasty.

And everyone enjoys reading them, young and old. Baby shower (婴儿洗礼) poems can have rhythm and rhyme, but they certainly don't have to. Poems can be either long or short, but short is probably best for your typical baby shower needs. You can add a little humor as well! The people who are most often touched by baby shower poems are those who have had children themselves. Sweet poems can remind them of the time when their little ones were still young. No one will appreciate them more than the family members themselves. If you are a creative writer or have a special talent for putting words together in a special way, then you should try writing your own baby shower poems. This would make a great gift idea as well. If you decide to write your own baby poems, even common things can inspire you. Inspiration can be found anywhere. Look to your own memories from the past. What was special about your childhood? What special object have you treasured over the years? What words of wisdom (智慧) of advice could you pass on to the next generation? Look around the house and imagine a baby being there. What do you see, hear, or feel? Let those thoughts be the source of your best baby poems. When writing a baby poem, you do not have to write like Shakespeare, you just have to be sincere. Years later when the baby has grown, think of how special they will feel knowing the words were just for them. If you are not the creative type — don't worry! There are lots of places online where you can look for poems saying just the things you want to say. Poems have been written on all subjects throughout the ages, and baby poems and baby shower poems are no exception. A quick search online doesn't have to take any time at all. 5.In the author's opinion, baby shower poems ________. A.all have a little humor in them B.are not suitable for adults to enjoy C.don't have to have rhythm or rhyme D.must be short enough to meet babies' needs 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Baby shower (婴儿洗礼) poems can have rhythm and rhyme, but they certainly don't have to.”可知作者认为,婴儿洗礼诗不一定非要押韵。 6.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A.Advice from famous poets on writing poems. B.Words that can be used in baby poems. C.Different ways of writing baby poems. D.Inspiration for writing baby poems. 解析:选D 段落大意题。通读第三段可知,本段主要是告诉一些想写婴儿诗的人如何寻找写婴儿诗的灵感,故选D项。 7.According to Paragraph 4, a baby poem should sound ______. A.encouraging B.sincere C.beautiful D.interesting 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第四段的“When writing a baby poem, you do not have to write like Shakespeare, you just have to be sincere.”可知,婴儿诗应该听起来让人感到真诚。 8.What would be the best title for the passage? A.Write baby poems to say what's on your heart B.The most beautiful poems in the world C.How babies read poems D.How poems inspire babies 解析:选A 标题归纳题。本文主要围绕如何写关于婴儿的诗歌以表达感情展开叙述,故A项为标题最合适。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2018·湖南部分重点中学模拟)Hello, Mr. WiFi. Life without you is next to impossible now. We're happy to sing your name from morning till evening, sometimes till dawn. __1__ I know you help me, sometimes you're making me do things with __2__ attention. Many times I promise myself that I'll __3__ my feelings towards you, but you're __4__ me closer and closer ... You've entered both my home and my __5__. You're just a window for our __6__ and information. But we people aren't __7__ only with the window. So we open all our __8__ for you. Is this a(n) __9__ or some kind of attachment? If this is an illness, is it curable? And if this is an attachment will you __10__ me to the lifelong togetherness? We want you 24/7. Can't you take a few days off so that both you and I can __11__? You're a poison — not a slow one but a super __12__ poison which holds our mind and makes us dance __13__ its tune. Nowadays you're so __14__ that anyone can buy and make you our __15__. You'll never be bothered about our health but we'll __16__ be concerned about your “health”. Because you accompany us everywhere and never let us be alone. If you were a __17__ person made of flesh and blood (血肉之躯) would we love you the same? You __18__ us with your numerous talents and we even can't get rid of you. We're all your __19__. Sometimes I wonder how people in the previous generations __20__, but if they did why can't we? 语篇解读:作者用诙谐的语气质问WiFi,这呈现了现代人的一种通病,那就是对无线网络的依赖。 1.A.Now that B.Only if C.Though D.When 解析:选C 根据语境可知,虽然(Though)作者知道WiFi帮助了自己,但是正是WiFi的特殊作用让作者在做事情的时候会分散(divided)注意力。 2.A.praised B.increased C.focused D.divided 解析:选D 参见上题解析。 3.A.keep in B.bring back C.approve of D.give up 解析:选A 根据语境可知,作者很多次都对自己承诺说要抑制(keep in)自己对WiFi的情感。bring back“使回忆起,使想起”;approve of“同意,赞成”;give up“放弃”。 4.A.drawing B.pushing C.forcing D.observing 解析:选A 根据语境可知,此处形象生动地表现了作者不能抗拒WiFi对自己的吸引。draw“吸引”符合语境。 5.A.space B.soul C.society D.workplace 解析:选B WiFi进入了作者的家和灵魂(soul)中。下文中的“holds our mind”是关键提示。 6.A.entertainment B.argument C.expansion D.struggle 解析:选A WiFi(本来)只是我们娱乐(entertainment)和获取信息的窗口。 7.A.strict B.satisfied C.generous D.busy 解析:选B 根据上文的“You're just a window for our ... information.”以及“But”所表示的转折关系可知,此处表示人们并不满足于(satisfied)WiFi仅仅是个“窗口(window)”。 8.A.thoughts B.eyes C.exits D.doors 解析:选D 此处表示人们将WiFi的作用扩大化,不仅仅满足于其作为窗口的作用,而是将所有的“门(doors)”打开迎接WiFi。某种程度上而言,door是window的“升级版”。 9.A.disease B.inspiration C.routine D.phenomenon 解析:选A 结合下文中的“an illness”可知,作者疑惑的是自己和其他人对WiFi如此依赖的现象是否是一种病(disease)。 10.A.recommend B.instruct C.commit D.adapt 解析:选C 如果对WiFi的情感是一种依赖的话,WiFi能保证与作者一生都亲密无间吗?commit意为“保证(做某事、遵守协议或遵从安排等),承诺”,符合语境。 11.A.persist B.relax C.progress D.balance 解析:选B WiFi不能给自己放几天假以便它和作者都能放松(relax)一下吗? 12.A.raw B.ambiguous C.strong D.fast 解析:选D 根据本句中的“not a slow one”可知,WiFi并不是慢性毒药,而是快速起效的毒药,故用fast与slow形成对比。raw“不熟练的”;ambiguous“含糊不清的”。 13.A.to B.against C.from D.within 解析:选A WiFi是一种能控制人们的思想并使人们随着它的音调起舞的毒药。to表示“随着”。 14.A.affordable B.valuable C.conventional D.attractive 解析:选A 根据下文中的“anyone can buy”可知,如今WiFi的价格是如此低廉以至于任何人都能买到,并使其成为人们的伴侣(companion)。affordable“支付得起的,不算太贵的”,符合语境。 15.A.addition B.expert C.companion D.instrument 解析:选C 参见上题解析。下文中的“Because you accompany us everywhere and never let us be alone.”亦是提示。 16.A.sometimes B.always C.never D.seldom 解析:选B 毫无生命的WiFi是决不会在意其用户的健康的,但是用户们会一直担心WiFi的“健康”,此处用always与上文的“never”形成对比,强调人们对WiFi的在意程度。 17.A.selfish B.dishonest C.responsible D.real 解析:选D 根据下文中的“person made of flesh and blood (血肉之躯)”可知,作者想知道如果WiFi成为拥有血肉之躯的真实的(real)人,人们是否会一样喜欢它。 18.A.control B.scold C.comfort D.challenge 解析:选A 根据上文作者介绍的人们对WiFi的依赖及下文中的“we even can't get rid of you”可知,人们离开了WiFi简直无法生活下去,而本句中的“with your numerous talents”正是WiFi控制人们的方式。 19.A.friends B.slaves C.colleagues D.employers 解析:选B 根据语境可知,WiFi控制了人们,也就是说人们成了被其掌控的奴隶(slaves)。 20.A.suffered B.connected C.survived D.surfed 解析:选C 根据语境尤其是本句中的“in the previous generations”可知,作者非常疑惑的是在早期没有WiFi的时候人们是如何存活(survived)下来的。 Ⅲ.语法填空 (2018·安徽重点高中第二次模拟)Classical Chinese poetry is traditional Chinese poetry __1__ (write) in Classical Chinese and typified by certain traditional forms and close __2__ (connect) with particular historical periods, such as the poetry of the Tang Dynasty.

Of the key aspects of Classical Chinese poetry, another is __9__ (it) intense interrelationship with other forms of Chinese art, such as Chinese painting and Chinese calligraphy. Classical Chinese poetry has proven to be of strong influence __10__ poetry worldwide. 1.written 中国古诗是用古文写的传统中国诗歌。write与poetry之间是被动关系,故用过去分词作后置定语。 2.connections 空前有形容词close“紧密的”,故空处填名词。connection在此表示“(两种事实、观念等的)联系,关联”,是可数名词,故填名词的复数形式。 3.is documented document在此表示“记录,记载”,是及物动词,document与existence之间是被动关系,故用被动语态,且此处表示客观事实,要用一般现在时。 4.Various 存在多种多样的形式和种类的结合体。空处修饰名词combinations,故填形容词Various“多种多样的”。 5.arose 它们中的很多或者说大部分产生于唐代晚期。arise“产生,出现”,是不及物动词,根据时间状语at the end of the Tang Dynasty可知本句用一般过去时。 6.actively 分析句子结构可知,空处修饰谓语动词continued,故用副词actively“活跃地”。 7.when 分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,先行词是the year of 1919,空处在从句中作时间状语,故填when。 8.a a great deal of“大量的,许多”,是固定搭配,修饰不可数名词,故填a。 9.its 空处指代对象是Classical Chinese poetry,且表示“……的”,故填its。 10.on/upon influence“影响”常与介词on/upon连用。 Topic 4 Pygmalion (Book 8·Unit 4) [主课文晨读] PYGMALION MAIN CHARACTERS: Eliza Doolittle(E):a poor flower girl who is ambitious to improve herself Professor Higgins (H):an expert in phonetics, convinced that the quality of a person's English decides his/her position in society Colonel Pickering (CP):an officer in the army and later a friend of Higgins' who sets him a task Act One FATEFUL MEETINGS 11:15 pm in London, England in 1914 outside a theatre. It is pouring with rain and cab whistles are blowing in all directions. A man is hiding from the rain listening to people's language and watching their reactions. he makes notes. Nearby a flower girl wearing dark garments and a woollen scarf is also sheltering from the rain. A gentleman (G) passes and hesitates for a moment. E:Come over'ere, cap'in, and buy me flowers off a poor girl. G:I'm sorry but I haven't any change. E:I can giv'ou change, cap'in. G:(surprised) For a pound? I'm afraid I've got nothing less. E:(hopefully) Oah! Oh, Captain. Take this for three pence. (holds up some dead flowers) G:(uncomfortably) Now don't be troublesome, there's a good girl. (looks in his wallet and sounds more friendly) But, wait, here's some small change. Will that be of any use to you? It's raining heavily now, isn't it? (leaves) E:(disappointed at the outcome, but thinking it is better than nothing) Thank you, sir. (sees a man taking notes and feels worried) Hey! I ain't done nothing wrong by speaking to that gentleman. I've a right to sell flowers, I have. I ain't no thief. I'm an honest girl I am! (begins to cry) H:(kindly) There! There! Who's hurting you, you silly girl? What do you take me for? (gives her a handkerchief) E:I thought maybe you was a policeman in disguise. H:Do I look like a policeman? E:(still worried) Then why did 'ou take down my words for? How do I know whether 'ou took me down right?'ou just show me what 'ou've wrote about me! H:Here you are. (hands over the paper E:What's that? That ain't proper writing. I can't read that. (pushes it back at him) H:I can. (reads imitating Eliza) “Come over'ere, cap'in, and buy me flowers off a poor girl.” (in his own voice) There you are and you were born in Lisson Grove if I'm not mistaken. E:(looking confused) What if I was? What's it to you? CP:(has been watching the girl and now speaks to Higgins) That's quite brilliant! How did you do that, may I ask? H:Simply phonetics studied and classified from people's own speech. That's my profession and also my hobby. You can place a man by just a few remarks. I can place any spoken conversation within six miles, and even within two streets in London sometimes. CP:Let me congratulate you! But is there an income to be made in that? H:Yes, indeed. Quite a good one. This is the age of the newly rich. People begin their working life in a poor neighbourhood of London with 80 pounds a year and end in a rich one with 100 thousand. But they betray themselves every time they open their mouths. Now once taught by me, she'd become an upper class lady ... CP:Is that so? Extraordinary! H:(rudely) Look at this girl with her terrible English: the English that will condemn her to the gutter to the end of her days. But, sir, (proudly) once educated to speak properly, that girl could pass herself off in three months as a duchess at an ambassador's garden party. Perhaps I could even find her a place as a lady's maid or a shop assistant, which requires better English. E:What's that you say? A shop assistant? Now that's sommat I want, that is! H:(ignores her) Can you believe that? CP:Of course! I study many Indian dialects myself and ... H:Do you indeed? Do you know Colonel Pickering? CP:Indeed I do, for that is me. Who are you? H:I'm Henry Higgins and I was going to India to meet you. CP:And I came to England to make your acquaintance! E:What about me? How'll you help me? H:Oh, take that. (carelessly throws a handful of money into her basket) We must have a celebration, my dear man. (leave together) E:(looking at the collected money in amazement) Well, I never. A whole pound! A fortune! That'll help me, indeed it will. Tomorrow I'll find you, Henry Higgins. Just you wait and see! All that talk of (imitates him) “authentic English” ...(in her own voice) I'll see whether you can get that for me ...

Of course he helped set the trend, so that got me thinking about the link between films and trends in fashion. Fashion and films have gone hand in hand for long. The Wild One is a good example: it appeared in 1954, starring Brando. Dressed in a black leather motorcycle jacket, leather cap and jeans, he created a look which is still considered “cool” today. Everyone from Madonna to a middleaged man is seen wearing the classic leather motorcycle jacket. Another strong influence on fashion trends was Breakfast at Tiffany's, starring Audrey Hepburn. She made famous the simple black dress that looks perfect at either a cocktail party or just standing around an expensive department store like Tiffany's with a pastry and coffee in your hand, as Audrey Hepburn does in the film. She looks so elegant, wearing simple but beautiful dresses, big dark glasses and a string of pearls around her neck. Audrey Hepburn still influences women's fashion with her “Tiffany's look”. In more modern times, the film star Uma Thurman created a major fashion trend when she appeared in the film Pulp Fiction, made in 1994. Her style was very simple. Her black trousers, crisp white shirt and hairstyle were copied by women in the world. Influencing fashion trends can often be about timing. The movie Memoirs of a Geisha came just in time to start a trend in Japanese fashion. It starred the Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi, who wore beautiful silk kimonos (和服), and it won an Oscar for Costume Design. Many travel companies picked up on the trend and ran “geisha trips” to Japan. The film has also led to a regained interest in kimonos. It is now quite common to see young Japanese women wearing kimonos not just on traditional occasions, but at various social events. The fashion is also beginning to spread to western countries. 1.What is the best title for the passage? A.Films and fashion B.Stars' fashion C.Influential films D.Film cultures 解析:选A 标题归纳题。第一段的第三句“Fashion and films have gone hand in hand for long.”开篇点题,结合全文的整体内容可推知,本文主要讨论了电影和时尚之间的关系。 2.Who will people associate Madonna wearing the leather motorcycle jacket with? A.Zhang Ziyi. B.Audrey Hepburn. C.Uma Thurman. D.Marlon Brando. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Dressed in a black leather motorcycle jacket, leather cap and jeans ... is seen wearing the classic leather motorcycle jacket.”可知,麦当娜的皮革摩托夹克会让人联想到演员Marlon Brando。 3.What is implied in the film Breakfast at Tiffany's according to the passage? A.One can be active by wearing black. B.One can be elegant by wearing simple. C.One can be famous by looking perfect. D.One can be stylish by eating at Tiffany's. 解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第二段内容尤其是倒数第二句“She looks so elegant, wearing simple but beautiful dresses, big dark glasses and a string of pearls around her neck.”可推知,电影Breakfast at Tiffany's映射出一个人可以通过简单的衣着表现出优雅。 4.What does the film Memoirs of a Geisha lead to? A.The popularity of the Chinese actress. B.The worldwide reading of geisha stories. C.The recovery of interest in kimonos. D.The “geisha trips” to social events. 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据最后一段的倒数第三句“The film has also led to a regained interest in kimonos.”可知,电影Memoirs of a Geisha使人们重新对和服产生了兴趣。 B 话题 词数 建议用时 情景喜剧 329 7分钟 (2018·河北省石家庄市高中毕业班第一次模拟) Keep Running into Mary Richards When I was 13, I first met Mary Richards, the central character in the sitcom (situation comedy) “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”. She was a single and independent career woman. As soon as I heard the show's theme song “Who can turn the world on with her smile?”, I was hooked. My friends were huge fans as well. Passing in the hallway at school, we would shout to each other, trying to imitate (模仿) Mary's accent. “Hi, Rho! See ya later, kid!” The show lasted seven years, but our fascination (着迷) faded earlier. But that wasn't the end of Mary for me. In the 1990s, when I was single, living alone in a city, a TV station began airing reruns of “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” at 10 p.m. I was hooked all over again. But this time was different. The way she handled her career and relationships, sending a clear message that being 30plus and single was just fine, won my respect on a whole new level. Once again, however, life moved on. I went to live in a different city, and 10 p.m. became the perfect time to call my mother each night. For me, talking to Mom was always a great pleasure. So when my mom passed away, it was as if the sun had gone out of the sky. That feeling seemed particularly intense at 10 p.m., when I'd find myself staring at my silent phone. And then I heard the song I'd first heard at age 13, “Who can turn the world on with her smile?”. Mary Richards, of course! Thanks to the wonder of technology, Mary was now as close as my phone. So every night at 10, I would dial up an episode of “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”. Weeks later, I realized I didn't need my nightly sessions with Mary anymore, because Mom's and Mary's elegance was showing itself in other corners of my life and, once again, I was ready to move on. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。“我”在小时候就喜欢Mary Tyler Moore的情景喜剧,她在剧中扮演的角色Mary Richards一直影响着“我”。 5.What does the author's imitation with her friends indicate? A.They had a very happy childhood. B.The theme song was well received. C.They valued their friendship a lot. D.The sitcom was popular with them. 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“My friends were huge fans as well. Passing in the hallway at school, we would shout to each other, trying to imitate (模仿) Mary's accent.”可知,“我”和朋友们都是Mary的粉丝,经常模仿她的口音;据此可以判断,情景喜剧很受“我”和朋友们的欢迎,故D项正确。 6.How did the sitcom influence the author in the 1990s? A.Her career was changed greatly. B.She decided to stop living singly. C.She became more confident in life. D.Her fascination with it disappeared. 解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第二段的最后一句“The way she handled her career and relationships, sending a clear message that being 30plus and single was just fine, won my respect on a whole new level.”可推知,Mary的情景喜剧让“我”在生活中重拾自信,故C项正确。 7.What does the underlined word “intense” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Contradictory. B.Strong. C.Natural. D.Serious. 解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据第三段的第四句“So when my mom passed away, it was as if the sun had gone out of the sky.”可知,母亲的去世让“我”感到非常悲伤;结合画线词所在句中的“when I'd find myself staring at my silent phone”可知,当晚上十点“我”凝视着电话时,这种悲伤的感觉尤其强烈。据此可知,画线词意为“强烈的”,故B项正确。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 (2018·唐山市高三一模) Facts You Didn't Know About Happy People Here are some facts that happy people have combined into their lives.

Luckily, there are books for that. The Complete Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen Any reader of fairy tales knows Andersen's responsible for the snowy scenes in “The Snow Queen”, the story of children Kay and Gerda, who must face the goddesslike woman who controls all snowflakes after Kay is kidnapped. Family Life by Akhil Sharma It's a beautiful yet tragic novel about an Indian family immigrating to America, only to face entirely new hardships. Sharma's novel isn't entirely set in the wintertime, but his poetic descriptions of winter weather as lovely yet isolating make it a great choice for a December read. Frankenstein by Mary Shelley Go ahead and give up the movie adaptation that has been produced recently and read or reread the classic itself. You know the story: a scientist driven by his ambition discovers a method for creating life, and spends two years cobbling together a living creature, who later feels angry with him. An American Childhood by Annie Dillard Dillard's first book is, as its title suggests, about her change from being a selfcentered child to being an adult more concerned with the world around her than with her own personal concerns. Her parents are key figures in the story. One famous scene takes place during what the author calls “a big snow”, in 1950. 语篇解读:本文主要介绍了四本文学名著的作者、内容简介等相关信息,它们是《安徒生童话全集》、《家庭生活》、《弗兰肯斯坦》和《美国童年》。 1.Who wrote a novel about “The Snow Queen”?

But, can they rise to the level of art? Organizers of an exhibit in New York City think so. Peter Souleo Wright organized “The Button Show” at Rush Arts Gallery in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan. Eleven artists used the small, ordinary objects to create sculptures, portraits and wearable art. Some of the works are political, some are personal and others are just fun. Wright said each artist reimagines and repurposes the buttons to make art.“What I tried to do with this show,” he said, “was to look at artists who were promoting that level of craft.” He said he wanted the button art to be comparable to a painting “because of the amount of detail and precision in the work”. Artist Beau McCall produced “A Harlem Hangover”. It looks like a wine bottle that fell over on a table. A stream of connected red buttons hang over the side, like wine flowing down. Similar red buttons form a small pool on the floor. McCall layers buttons of different shapes and sizes to create the bottle. The stitching that holds them together is also part of the artistic design. For San Franciscobased artist Lisa Kokin, buttons are highly personal. After her father died in 2001, she created a portrait of him using only buttons. That memorial to her father led to other button portraits, including those of activists Rosa Parks and Cesar Chavez. Others use buttons for details. Artist Amalia Amaki of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, placed them on and around old photographs. Los Angeles artist Camilla Taylor attached buttons to three large sculptures that look like headless animals with long, narrow legs. “The Button Show” ends at March 12. The Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation paid for the exhibition. The foundation was created in 1995 by the Simmons brothers: artist Danny, hiphop producer Russell and rapper Reverend Run. The foundation seeks to bring the artists to urban youth and to provide support for new artists. 语篇解读:文章介绍了纽约艺术家们组织的一场特殊的纽扣展览,在展览中人们见到了许多有创意的艺术品。 5.Why did Wright organize “The Button Show”?

It uses threedimensional (3D)printing to recreate famous paintings so they can be touched. One painting printed with the new technology is Gustav Klimt's “The Kiss”. It is a popular attraction at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna, Austria. The painting shows a man and a woman standing in a field filled with flowers. They are wearing gold robes and have their arms around each other. The man leans down to kiss the woman. Klimt finished the painting in 1908. Until now, people who had trouble seeing could not appreciate the artwork. But thanks to the reproduction they can touch the piece and feel the ridges and depressions. Andreas Reichinger started making 3D versions of artwork in 2010. He said this reproduction was his most difficult project because the couple's robes are so detailed. Dominika Raditsch is a blind museum visitor. She touched the reproduction. As she moved her hands around it she said, “Exactly, can you see these? There are so many details.” Raditsch said she could imagine what the original painting looks like when she touched the reproduction. “It's somehow round. You can feel it. You can feel it. It comes with it. And in many places it's so smooth. And then I think to myself: it probably shines too!” Raditsch said. The Belvedere is not the only museum to have 3D versions of its artwork. Some of the pieces at the Prado Museum, in Madrid, Spain have reproductions that can be touched. But the piece in Vienna has one special part: it is made with widely available 3D printing technology. That means one day, blind art fans anywhere in the world could download the source files and print the reproductions themselves. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了欧盟的一个项目使用3D打印技术重现名画,让它们可以被视障人士触摸到。 8.What is “The Kiss”?

But could you imagine being considered beautiful for years, and suddenly being ugly after moving to another continent? It is a sad reality that people don't realize how vacillating the idea of beauty can be from one country to another. Think of the most typical American girl you know. Is she blonde haired with white skin and light blue eyes, and does she love shopping or sports? Now place this girl in the heart of Africa, where beauty is placed on what you can control. The Maasai tribe in Kenya focuses on how clean people are, and how stylish their piercings (穿孔) are. This tribe's culture is to be a brave fighter, so they will cut their skin with patterns in it to show that they are strong. If you don't look fierce, you are not beautiful. Other countries like North Korea and South Korea have their own unique views on beauty. In an interview, a woman who has lived in both North Korea and South Korea claims that beauty in North Korea is based more on your ability to be a good woman and wife. She says that women in North Korea are less concerned about fashion and beauty in the physical sense. She says they did have a time when big eyes were a big deal and everyone wanted to get double eyelid surgery. This is something extreme and could perhaps be influenced by Western culture. But don't you think the idea of getting surgery done to look more attractive is crazy? 12.What does the underlined word “vacillating” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A.Inconsistent. B.Reasonable. C.Unusual. D.Similar. 解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据第一段第二句“But could you imagine being considered beautiful for years, and suddenly being ugly after moving to another continent?” 可知,许多年里,你都被认为是美丽的,当你搬到另一个大陆时突然会被认为是难看的。由此可知美会随着地点的不同发生变化,因此此处指人们没有意识到不同国家的人对美的观点是不一致的。inconsistent“不一致的”;reasonable“合理的”;unusual“不寻常的”;similar“相似的”。 13.The Maasai tribe in Kenya is mentioned to show that in their eyes ________. A.getting dirty is stylish B.looking fierce is beautiful C.strong people cut their skin D.American girls love shopping 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“If you don't look fierce, you are not beautiful.”可知,肯尼亚的Maasai部落认为看起来凶猛就是美丽的。 14.According to the woman interviewed, women in North Korea now ________. A.care a lot about their appearance B.put the beauty of eyes in the first place C.pay great attention to their ability D.are crazy about double eyelid surgery 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“claims that beauty in North Korea is based more on your ability to be a good woman and wife”可知,朝鲜的女性现在更加关注她们成为好女人和好妻子的能力。 15.What does the text mainly tell us? A.Inner beauty is of great importance. B.Ideas of beauty vary among culture groups. C.Different ways are needed to admire true beauty. D.Fashion magazines easily influence young people. 解析:选B 主旨大意题。根据第一段的“It is a sad reality that people don't realize how vacillating the idea of beauty can be from one country to another.”可知,不同国家的人对美的观点是不同的,即不同的文化群体对美的观点不尽相同。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2018·郑州市高三质量预测)From childhood, Moira loved to write.

Mr Ma, aged 52 this year, is now the richest person in Asia and the 14th wealthiest in the world, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. His net worth has climbed $8.5bn this year to $41.8bn. The latest surge came after China's largest ecommerce company forecast 45 to 49 per cent revenue (收入) growth in the year ending March, demonstrating how investments in online shopping are paying off. Shares in Alibaba, where Mr Ma is chairman, rose 13 per cent to a record high. Alibaba and Tencent, which dominate online shopping and social media respectively, have ventured (冒险) deeper into new areas from cloud computing services to streaming music and video as the country's economy slows. Alibaba is capturing more digital advertising spending by incorporating (吸收) social elements such as video in its shopping sites. Alibaba is holding meetings with investors this week. On Friday, the former English teacher said he wasn't going to discuss corporate forecasts. He took the stage instead to describe how his company had become effectively the world's 22nd largest economy — just after Argentina — in terms of transactions (交易) by never fearing to think big. Mr Ma, who said Alibaba revised 10year plans annually, foresaw the company becoming the fifthlargest eventually by 2036 by serving burgeoning (迅速发展) Chinese middle classes, taking advantage of global trade and making use of its valuable data. Ma's comments about the evolution of datadriven technology echoed those of Masayoshi Son, chairman of Japan's SoftBank. SoftBank — Alibaba's largest shareholder — has invested billions in companies such as ARM with the intention of staking out a leading position in the future Internet of Things. “The Internet of Things is going to be big because in the past, machines ‘drank’ electricity,” Mr Ma told investors. “In the next 20 years, machines will ‘drink’ data. In the future, no company, no country, no business can survive without data.” 语篇解读:本文介绍了阿里巴巴集团股票股价上涨13%,使董事长马云净身家在一天之内增加28亿美元,成为亚洲首富的故事。 5.The text is intended to tell us that ________.

While at the Starmus Festival, a festival in Trondheim, Norway, celebrating science and the arts, Hawking warned people that the human race is in serious danger. Hawking criticized President Donald Trump for denying climate change. Then the physicist warned the audience, “I am not denying the importance of fighting climate change and global warming, unlike Donald Trump, who may just have taken the most serious and wrong decision on climate change this world has seen.” Hawking proposed that the leading countries should send astronauts to the Moon before 2020 to restart a movement of more exploration in space. The BBC reported that Hawking suggested that we “build a lunar base in 30 years' time and send people to Mars by 2025”. According to the BBC, Professor Hawking said, “Spreading out into space will completely change the future of humanity.” He continued, “I hope it would unite competitive nations in a single goal to face the common challenge for us all.” The physicist shared more ideas to motivate the younger generation to continue exploring space. Hawking stated, “A new and ambitious space program would excite (young people), and stimulate interest in other areas, such as astrophysics (天体物理学) and cosmology (宇宙学).” Hawking also revealed his vision of other forms of energy that could move us to a new planet. He warned the audience, “The Earth is under threat from so many areas that it is difficult for me to be positive.” He continued, “Our natural resources are being drained at an alarming rate. We have given our planet the disastrous gifts of climate change, rising temperatures, reduction of the polar ice caps, deforestation (滥伐森林), and decimation (大批杀死) of animal species. We can be an ignorant and unthinking (考虑不周的) lot.” The professor warned the audience that doing nothing would lead nowhere. He said, “If we succeed we will send a probe (航天探测器) to Alpha Centauri within the lifetime of some of you alive today. It is clear that we are entering a new space age. We are standing at the threshold (开端) of a new era. Human colonization and moving to other planets is no longer science fiction, and it can be science fact.” Hawking advised the audience to move to other worlds because we are running out of space. 语篇解读:文章引用了世界知名物理学及天文学家霍金的观点,阐明了人类必须离开地球在太空中找一处新家的原因。 9.According to Hawking, what is the first step for humans to spread out into space? A.To send people to Mars. B.To build a lunar base. C.To send astronauts to the Moon. D.To change the future of humanity. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由文章第三段的第一句可知,人类要向太空扩展应在2020年之前把宇航员送到月球以重启太空探索,故选C项。 10.The underlined word “drained” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by “________”. A.speeded up B.stored C.used up D.explored 解析:选C 词义猜测题。由该词前面的“natural resources”和后面的“at an alarming rate”可以推断出,drain在这里是“用完,耗尽”的意思,故选C项。 11.What is Hawking's attitude towards the Earth's future? A.Pessimistic. B.Confused. C.Positive. D.Indifferent. 解析:选A 观点态度题。由文章中反复出现的“warned”以及第五段的内容可以推断出,霍金对地球的未来持悲观的态度,这也是他提出人类要离开地球的原因,故选A项。 12.The reason why humans must leave the Earth soon is that ________. A.the Earth is under threat and the human race is in serious danger B.humans have found other forms of energy to move to a new planet C.a new and ambitious space program would excite young people D.astronauts have found a better world in space than the Earth 解析:选A 细节理解题。由第一段的第二句和第五段的第二句可知,人类必须离开地球的原因是:人类处于危险之中,地球受到威胁,故选A项。 D Called “the man who shaped America” and “the father of modern industrial design”, Raymond Loewy must be one of the most influential designers of all time. He revolutionized the industry, working as an adviser for more than 200 companies and creating designs for everything from packaging to refrigerators, from cars to the insides of spaceships. Loewy's designs all had one thing in common. They were shaped by the MAYA principle — Most Advanced Yet Acceptable. His idea was that people will not accept solutions to design problems if the solutions are too different from current designs. Loewy started his career in industrial design in 1929 by redesigning a copying machine for the British manufacturer, Sigmund Gestetner. The 28yearold designer completed the task in three days and the design of the machine lasted for the next 40 years. The Gestetner copying machine was the beginning of many designs which used streamlining (流线型). He described this as “beauty through function and simplification”. He spent the next 50 years streamlining everything from postage stamps and company logos (商标) to the insides of stores. The famous Greyhound bus and Studebaker car show his use of streamlining in action. He is perhaps most famous for his redesign of the Lucky Strike packaging. In 1940, the President of the Lucky Strike Manufacturing Company, George Washington Hill, bet Loewy D|S50,000 that he could not improve the appearance of the green and red Lucky Strike packets. Loewy accepted the challenge. He changed the background of the packet from green to white. Then he put the red lucky strike target on both sides of the packet. This made it more eyecatching and greatly increased sales. It is now recognized as a design classic. Loewy's logo design aimed at “visual retention (视觉保持)”. He wanted to make sure that anyone who saw the logo, even for a short while, would never forget it. He designed many highly visible logos for famous companies such as Shell Oil, Exxon, Greyhound and Nabisco. By the mid 20th century, his industrial design firm was so famous that he could say “the average person, leading a normal life ... is bound to be in daily contact with some of the things, services or structures” designed by his firm. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了20世纪最著名的美国工业设计师之一与美国工业奠基人雷蒙德·罗维。 13.Loewy's biggest influence was in ________. A.completely changing the design industry B.successfully shaping Americans' taste C.changing people's idea about design D.building a professional design team 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“the father of modern industrial design”和“one of the most influential designers of all time”以及“He revolutionized the industry”可知,雷蒙德·罗维完全改变了设计行业。 14.Loewy's designs were based on the idea of ________. A.speeding up the design process B.providing completely different designs C.providing most immediately recognizable designs D.offering original but not revolutionary answers to problems 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,罗维的设计都基于一个原则:最先进的但仍可接受的。 15.What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.Loewy provided service to ordinary people. B.Loewy's designs were famous and influential. C.Loewy's design firms existed all over the world. D.Loewy was welcomed and respected by the public. 解析:选B 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,一个普通人每日都会接触雷蒙德·洛威公司的设计作品,由此可推知,雷蒙德·罗维公司的设计作品非常著名,而且极富影响力。 Ⅱ.完形填空 I'm sitting at the airport watching people in the last minutes before their loved ones arrive or depart.
