Where the Wild Things are
Durban, a great all-round destination in South Africa,is home to some of South Africa’s most diverse wildlife. There you can see an impressive array of wild animals in the flesh, from lions, leopards and elephants to endangered species.Durban KZN is now just a direct British Airways flight away—take a look at some of its most unforgettable wildlife experiences.
Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park
Start north of Durban at one of South Africa’s most celebrated national parks. Hluhluwe-iMfolozi really comes alive during the winter months, when many animals congregate(聚集)at the water sources.Both the Black uMfolozi and White uMfolozi rivers flow through here, and it’s your best chance to see the Big Five all in one place lions, leopards, elephants, buffalo and rhinos, both black and white. Guided morning walks can be booked ahead for an astonishingly reasonable E12-f15.
Kosi Bay
It is an appealing complex of coastal lakes and an estuary(河口)with a peaceful, unspoiled atmosphere.

The AIDA model is the foundation of modern marketing and advertising practice. It outlines the four basic steps used to persuade potentials to make a purchase. The first three steps lie in creating attention (A), decorating interest (I), and building desire (D) for the product, before the fourth step — the “call to action” (A) — tells them exactly how and where to buy. AIDA can channel the customer’s feelings through each stage toward reaching a sale.
Attracting the customer’s attention is the first challenge and this may be achieved by using an attracting phrase or picture. Once someone’s attention has been clutched, it must be turned into real interest. This is best done by providing a brief description of the product’s benefits to the consumer rather than simply listing the product’s main features or problem-solving claims.
Now, it is time to transform that interest into a desire for a product or service. This is where consumers need to believe their lives could be better by possessing the product. It could be a vital step towards turning a potential into a real customer.
“Call-to-action” is where all of the initial hard work pays off and leads to the action from a potential customer. For example, they might pick up the phone to discuss the idea of a trial of the services or, alternatively, they may just buy that product or service that has been promoted to them all along.
And AIDA is used to great effect in the movie industry. Movie studios begin their marketing campaigns months in advance. The campaigns develop by offering attractive flashes of the movie without giving too much away. Desire is inspired by the release of the full preview which is fully designed to show the exciting moments of the movie, from special effects to humorous lines of dialogue on the opening weekend. Advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the movie’s release, inviting the consumer to go and buy a ticket.
4. What is the purpose of practising AIDA?
A. To create jobs. B. To increase sales.
C. To research markets. D. To introduce products.
5. What does the underlined word “clutched” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Seized. B. Freed. C. Cheated. D. Affected.
6. In which stage of the AIDA model may a customer call to try the service?
A. Action. B. Interest. C. Desire. D. Attention.
7. Why does the author mention the movie industry in the last paragraph?
A. To design an AIDA model. B. To display how AIDA works.
C. To show how to make a movie. D. To advertise the movie industry.
C
The South Pole has been warming at more than three times the global average over the past 30 years, according to research led by Ohio University professor Ryan Fogt, and Kyle Clem, who is a current postdoctoral research fellow in climate science. According to the study, this warming period was mainly driven by natural tropical (热带) climate variability and was likely strengthened by increases in greenhouse gases.
Clem and his team analyzed weather station data at the South Pole, as well as climate models to examine the warming in the Antarctic interior (内陆). They found that between 1989 and 2018, the South Pole had warmed by about 1. 8℃ over the past 30 years at a rate of +0. 6℃ per decade—three times the global average.
The study also found that the strong warming over the Antarctic interior in the last 30 years was mainly driven by the tropics, especially warm ocean temperatures in the western tropical Pacific Ocean that changed the winds in the South Atlantic near Antarctica and increased the delivery of warm air to the South Pole. They suggest these atmospheric changes along Antarctica's coast are an important mechanism driving climate anomalies (异常事物) in its interior.
Clem and Fogt argue that these warming trends were unlikely the result of natural climate change alone, stressing the effects of added warming related to human activities on top of the large tropical climate signal on Antarctic climate have worked together to make this one of the strongest warming trends worldwide.
“From the very beginning, Kyle and I worked very well together and were able to accomplish more as a team than we were individually,” Fogt said. “We have published every year together since 2013, with one of our continuing collaborations being the annual State of the Climate reports. Our work on this project together each year ultimately led to this publication documenting the warming at the South Pole. However, most importantly for my family and me, apart from being a fantastic scientist and collaborator, Kyle is also considered as one of our closest friends.”
8. What is the major cause of the South Pole's warming according to the research?
A. The weather station. B. Lack of winds.
C. Increases of greenhouse gases. D. Natural tropical climate change.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The tropical climate signals in the Antarctic interior.
B. The effect of human activities on the warming trends.
C. The detailed explanation for the South Pole's warming.
D. The unpleasant consequences of natural climate change.
10. Which of the following does Fogt most probably agree on?
A. Cooperation is valued in scientific research.
B. Getting science paper published is difficult.
C. Friendship is more important than science.
D. Family support plays a key role in science.
11. From which is the text most probably taken?
A. A chemistry textbook. B. A science magazine.
C. A travel brochure. D. A science novel.
D
Imagine driving behind a huge truck shooting clouds of smoke into the air while your new fully electric vehicle cleans up its carbon emissions (排放). This dream may soon be a reality. A team of students in the Netherlands has created an electric car that not only doesn’t produce carbon dioxide when driving, but actually pulls it out of the air.
The two-seater sports car was designed and built in less than a year by a team of 32 students at Eindhoven University of Technology. Called “ZEM”, which stands for “zero emission mobility”, the car is equipped with special devices that remove carbon dioxide from the air as it drives. The team says if ZEM is driven about 32,000 kilometers, it can remove 2 kilograms of carbon dioxide from the air. That’s not a huge amount. The team calculates that 10 ZEM cars on the road for a year would remove as much carbon dioxide as a typical tree does during that time. However, they also point out that there are over a billion passenger cars in the world that could be using this technology. And if a billion cars were removing carbon dioxide instead of producing it, the result would be huge.
ZEM also has several other innovations that help to make it more capable of being sustained: the car’s frame and panels (面板) are 3D printed to reduce waste; it was built using recycled and recyclable materials; and it can be easily taken apart so that many of its parts can be reused. ZEM’s battery is also reusable, and has another handy feature: it can be charged with solar panels on the car’s roof—and can even be used to provide power to your house when the car isn’t on the road.
According to the statistics, transportation was responsible for over 20% of global carbon dioxide emissions in 2020—and of those emissions, cars were responsible for 41%. The Eindhoven team says its goal is to challenge the electric car industry: If 32 students can build a car like this in less than a year, then surely car manufacturers (生产商) are expected to adopt these innovations, too.
12. What is special about ZEM?
A. It can end the world’s CO2 release.
B. It can cut the truck’s CO2 emissions.
C. It can reduce the level of CO2 in the air.
D. It can absorb dirty air as well as CO2.
13. Why does the team run the calculation of ZEM in paragraph 2?
A. To demonstrate a superb vision of ZEM cars.
B. To explain how ZEM removes CO2 as trees do.
C. To illustrate the ongoing change in car making.
D. To show the influence of ZEM on the car market.
14. What do we know about all the components of ZEM?
A. They are of high quality. B. They are easy to process.
C. They are convenient to print. D. They are environmentally friendly.
15. What does the Eindhoven team hope to achieve in the future?
A. Sharp decline in fuel consumption. B. Mass production of ZEM cars.
C. Big success in beating other car makers. D. Dramatic changes in transportation.

The AIDA model is the foundation of modern marketing and advertising practice. It outlines the four basic steps used to persuade potentials to make a purchase. The first three steps lie in creating attention (A), decorating interest (I), and building desire (D) for the product, before the fourth step — the “call to action” (A) — tells them exactly how and where to buy. AIDA can channel the customer’s feelings through each stage toward reaching a sale.
Attracting the customer’s attention is the first challenge and this may be achieved by using an attracting phrase or picture. Once someone’s attention has been clutched, it must be turned into real interest. This is best done by providing a brief description of the product’s benefits to the consumer rather than simply listing the product’s main features or problem-solving claims.
Now, it is time to transform that interest into a desire for a product or service. This is where consumers need to believe their lives could be better by possessing the product. It could be a vital step towards turning a potential into a real customer.
“Call-to-action” is where all of the initial hard work pays off and leads to the action from a potential customer. For example, they might pick up the phone to discuss the idea of a trial of the services or, alternatively, they may just buy that product or service that has been promoted to them all along.
And AIDA is used to great effect in the movie industry. Movie studios begin their marketing campaigns months in advance. The campaigns develop by offering attractive flashes of the movie without giving too much away. Desire is inspired by the release of the full preview which is fully designed to show the exciting moments of the movie, from special effects to humorous lines of dialogue on the opening weekend. Advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the movie’s release, inviting the consumer to go and buy a ticket.
4. What is the purpose of practising AIDA?
A. To create jobs. B. To increase sales.
C. To research markets. D. To introduce products.
5. What does the underlined word “clutched” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Seized. B. Freed. C. Cheated. D. Affected.
6. In which stage of the AIDA model may a customer call to try the service?
A. Action. B. Interest. C. Desire. D. Attention.
7. Why does the author mention the movie industry in the last paragraph?
A. To design an AIDA model. B. To display how AIDA works.
C. To show how to make a movie. D. To advertise the movie industry.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了AIDA模式是现代市场营销和广告实践的基础以及它是如何工作的。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“AIDA can channel the customer’s feelings through each stage toward reaching a sale.(AIDA可以引导客户感受通过每个阶段来达成销售) ”可推知,实践AIDA就是为了增加销售。故选B。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“Attracting the customer’s attention is the first challenge and this may be achieved by using an attracting phrase or picture.(吸引顾客的注意力是第一个挑战,这可以通过使用一个吸引人的短语或图片来实现) ”可推知,划线句意思为“一旦某人的注意力被抓住了,就必须把它转化为真正的兴趣。”故clutched意为“抓住”,和A选项Seized同义。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段““Call-to-action” is where all of the initial hard work pays off and leads to the action from a potential customer. For example, they might pick up the phone to discuss the idea of a trial of the services or, alternatively, they may just buy that product or service that has been promoted to them all along.(“行动号召”是指所有最初的努力都得到了回报,并导致潜在客户采取行动。例如,他们可能会拿起电话讨论试用服务的想法,或者,他们可能只是购买一直向他们推广的产品或服务)”可知,在AIDA模型的行动阶段,客户可能打电话来尝试服务。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“And AIDA is used to great effect in the movie industry. Movie studios begin their marketing campaigns months in advance. The campaigns develop by offering attractive flashes of the movie without giving too much away. Desire is inspired by the release of the full preview which is fully designed to show the exciting moments of the movie, from special effects to humorous lines of dialogue on the opening weekend. Advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the movie’s release, inviting the consumer to go and buy a ticket. (AIDA在电影工业中发挥了巨大的作用。电影制片厂会提前几个月开始营销活动。宣传活动通过提供有吸引力的电影片段而不透露太多信息来发展。Desire的灵感来自于完整预览版的发布,该预览版旨在展示电影的激动人心的时刻,从特效到幽默的对白。报纸和电视上的广告关注电影的上映,邀请消费者去买票)”可推知,作者在最后一段提到了电影行业,以展示AIDA是如何工作的。故选B。
C
The South Pole has been warming at more than three times the global average over the past 30 years, according to research led by Ohio University professor Ryan Fogt, and Kyle Clem, who is a current postdoctoral research fellow in climate science. According to the study, this warming period was mainly driven by natural tropical (热带的) climate variability and was likely strengthened by increases in greenhouse gases.
Clem and his team analyzed weather station data at the South Pole, as well as climate models to examine the warming in the Antarctic interior (内陆). They found that between 1989 and 2018, the South Pole had warmed by about 1. 8℃ over the past 30 years at a rate of +0. 6℃ per decade—three times the global average.
The study also found that the strong warming over the Antarctic interior in the last 30 years was mainly driven by the tropics, especially warm ocean temperatures in the western tropical Pacific Ocean that changed the winds in the South Atlantic near Antarctica and increased the delivery of warm air to the South Pole. They suggest these atmospheric changes along Antarctica's coast are an important mechanism driving climate anomalies (异常事物) in its interior.
Clem and Fogt argue that these warming trends were unlikely the result of natural climate change alone, stressing the effects of added warming related to human activities on top of the large tropical climate signal on Antarctic climate have worked together to make this one of the strongest warming trends worldwide.
“From the very beginning, Kyle and I worked very well together and were able to accomplish more as a team than we were individually,” Fogt said. “We have published every year together since 2013, with one of our continuing collaborations being the annual State of the Climate reports. Our work on this project together each year ultimately led to this publication documenting the warming at the South Pole. However, most importantly for my family and me, apart from being a fantastic scientist and collaborator, Kyle is also considered as one of our closest friends.”
8. What is the major cause of the South Pole's warming according to the research?
A. The weather station. B. Lack of winds.
C. Increases of greenhouse gases. D. Natural tropical climate change.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The tropical climate signals in the Antarctic interior.
B. The effect of human activities on the warming trends.
C. The detailed explanation for the South Pole's warming.
D. The unpleasant consequences of natural climate change.
10. Which of the following does Fogt most probably agree on?
A. Cooperation is valued in scientific research.
B. Getting science paper published is difficult.
C. Friendship is more important than science.
D. Family support plays a key role in science.
11. From which is the text most probably taken?
A. A chemistry textbook. B. A science magazine.
C. A travel brochure. D. A science novel.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了南极地区气温异常增高及其原因。热带地区气候变化影响了大气环流以至向南极地区输送了更多温暖的气流,加之人类活动的影响,进而造成了南极地区气温异常增高。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“According to the study, this warming period was mainly driven by natural tropical climate variability and was likely strengthened by increases in greenhouse gases(这一变暖期主要是由自然的热带气候变化驱动的,并可能因温室气体的增加而加强)”可知,研究发现南极气温异常升高主要是因为热带地区气候变化。故选D。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“The study also found that the strong warming over the Antarctic interior in the last 30 years was mainly driven by the tropics, especially warm ocean temperatures in the western tropical Pacific Ocean that changed the winds in the South Atlantic near Antarctica and increased the delivery of warm air to the South Pole. They suggest these atmospheric changes along Antarctica's coast are an important mechanism driving climate anomalies (异常事物) in its interior(研究还发现,南极内陆在过去的30年里强烈的变暖主要是由热带地区,特别是热带太平洋西部温暖的海洋温度驱动的。热带,尤其是西热带太平洋温暖的海洋温度改变了南极洲附近南大西洋的风,增加了向南极的暖空气输送。 他们认为,这些沿南极洲海岸的大气变化是导致其内部气候异常的重要机制)”可知,太平洋西部热带地区海洋温度升高改变了靠近南极洲的南大西洋风向,进而向南极输送了更多的温暖的气流,由此造成了南极变暖。由此可知,本段主要是对南极变暖的详细说明。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“From the very beginning, Kyle and I worked very well together and were able to accomplish more as a team than we were individually...We have published every year together since 2013, with one of our continuing collaborations being the annual State of the Climate reports. Our work on this project together each year ultimately led to this publication documenting the warming at the South Pole(从一开始,凯尔和我就合作得很好,作为一个团队我们完成了更多工作,超过了我们单独工作所能完成的。自2013年以来,我们每年都一起布报告,其中一个持续合作项目是年度气候状况报告。 我们每年在这个项目上的共同工作最终导致了这份记录南极变暖的出版物地诞生)”可知,Fogt和好友的研究成果的取得离不开他们的合作。由此可知,Fogt非常看重科学研究中的合作。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。文章主要介绍了南极地区气温异常增高及其成因,这属于科学研究的范畴。因此,本文最有可能出自“科学杂志”。故选B。

Imagine driving behind a huge truck shooting clouds of smoke into the air while your new fully electric vehicle cleans up its carbon emissions (排放). This dream may soon be a reality. A team of students in the Netherlands has created an electric car that not only doesn’t produce carbon dioxide when driving, but actually pulls it out of the air.
The two-seater sports car was designed and built in less than a year by a team of 32 students at Eindhoven University of Technology. Called “ZEM”, which stands for “zero emission mobility”, the car is equipped with special devices that remove carbon dioxide from the air as it drives. The team says if ZEM is driven about 32,000 kilometers, it can remove 2 kilograms of carbon dioxide from the air. That’s not a huge amount. The team calculates that 10 ZEM cars on the road for a year would remove as much carbon dioxide as a typical tree does during that time. However, they also point out that there are over a billion passenger cars in the world that could be using this technology. And if a billion cars were removing carbon dioxide instead of producing it, the result would be huge.
ZEM also has several other innovations that help to make it more capable of being sustained: the car’s frame and panels (面板) are 3D printed to reduce waste; it was built using recycled and recyclable materials; and it can be easily taken apart so that many of its parts can be reused. ZEM’s battery is also reusable, and has another handy feature: it can be charged with solar panels on the car’s roof—and can even be used to provide power to your house when the car isn’t on the road.
According to the statistics, transportation was responsible for over 20% of global carbon dioxide emissions in 2020—and of those emissions, cars were responsible for 41%. The Eindhoven team says its goal is to challenge the electric car industry: If 32 students can build a car like this in less than a year, then surely car manufacturers (生产商) are expected to adopt these innovations, too.
12. What is special about ZEM?
A It can end the world’s CO2 release.
B. It can cut the truck’s CO2 emissions.
C. It can reduce the level of CO2 in the air.
D. It can absorb dirty air as well as CO2.
13. Why does the team run the calculation of ZEM in paragraph 2?
A. To demonstrate a superb vision of ZEM cars.
B. To explain how ZEM removes CO2 as trees do.
C. To illustrate the ongoing change in car making.
D. To show the influence of ZEM on the car market.
14. What do we know about all the components of ZEM?
A. They are of high quality. B. They are easy to process.
C. They are convenient to print. D. They are environmentally friendly.
15. What does the Eindhoven team hope to achieve in the future?
A. Sharp decline in fuel consumption. B. Mass production of ZEM cars.
C. Big success in beating other car makers. D. Dramatic changes in transportation.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了荷兰的一个学生团队发明了一种叫做ZEM的电动汽车,这种汽车不仅在驾驶时不产生二氧化碳,而且实际上可以从空气中提取二氧化碳。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Called “ZEM”, which stands for “zero emission mobility”, the car is equipped with special devices that remove carbon dioxide from the air as it drives.(这种汽车被称为“ZEM”,意思是“零排放机动性”,它配备了特殊装置,在行驶过程中可以去除空气中的二氧化碳。)”可知,ZEM的特殊之处在于它能降低空气中的二氧化碳含量。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二中“The team says if ZEM is driven about 32,000 kilometers, it can remove 2 kilograms of carbon dioxide from the air. That’s not a huge amount. The team calculates that 10 ZEM cars on the road for a year would remove as much carbon dioxide as a typical tree does during that time. (研究小组说,如果ZEM行驶约32000公里,它可以从空气中清除2公斤的二氧化碳。这不是很多。研究小组计算出,10辆ZEM汽车在公路上一年清除的二氧化碳排放量相当于一棵普通树一年吸收二氧化碳的量。)”可推知,研究团队在第二段计算ZEM吸收二氧化碳的量是为了表明对ZEM汽车的美好憧憬,故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“ZEM also has several other innovations that help to make it more capable of being sustained: the car’s frame and panels (面板) are 3D printed to reduce waste; it was built using recycled and recyclable materials; and it can be easily taken apart so that many of its parts can be reused. ZEM’s battery is also reusable, and has another handy feature: it can be charged with solar panels on the car’s roof—and can even be used to provide power to your house when the car isn’t on the road.(ZEM还有其他一些创新,有助于使其更具可持续性: 汽车的车架和面板是3D打印的,以减少浪费;它使用可循环回收利用的材料制造;它可以很容易地拆卸,其中许多部件可以重复使用。ZEM的电池也是可重复使用的,而且还有一个方便的特点: 它可以用车顶上的太阳能电池板充电,甚至可以在汽车不在路上的时候为你的房子提供电力。)”可知,ZEM的所有零部件都是环保的,故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The Eindhoven team says its goal is to challenge the electric car industry: If 32 students can build a car like this in less than a year, then surely car manufacturers (生产商) are expected to adopt these innovations, too.(Eindhoven的研究小组表示,他们的目标是挑战电动汽车行业:如果32名学生能在不到一年的时间里制造出这样一辆汽车,那么汽车制造商肯定也会采用这些创新。)”可知,Eindhoven团队的目标是挑战电动汽车行业,由此可推知,Eindhoven希望在未来实现ZEM汽车的大量生产,故选B。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了地球给予了我们人类很多,而人类却破坏地球,使地球的状况日趁糟糕,最后提出几个如何阻止地球不会如此快地变糟的方法。
【16题详解】
根据空后“However, the human beings that don’t appreciate the earth, let harmful gases cause pollution and kill millions of animals living here with us, don’t deserve the planet and should be punished and pay the price.(然而,不珍惜地球,让有害气体造成污染,杀死数百万与我们生活在一起的动物的人类,不应该拥有这个星球,应该受到惩罚并付出代价。)”可知,破坏地球的人该受到惩罚,根据however可以判断该空内容与空后内容相反,F选项“The human beings that care for it and love it deserve what our planet provides us with.(关心它、热爱它的人类理应得到我们的星球为我们提供的一切。)”讲述的是关心地球的人配得上地球给我们提供的一切,与空后内容相反,符合逻辑。选项中的it指代上文提到的The earth,故选F项。
【17题详解】
根据空前“The earth lets us breathe.(地球让我们呼吸。)”可知,前文讲述了地球让我们能够呼吸,空后“It’s totally wrong to destroy nature and take what we have for granted.(破坏自然并认为我们拥有的东西是理所当然的,这是完全错误的。)”提到了破坏大自然以及把我们的所有认为是理所当然地看法是错误的,由以上可推断,此空应与空前内容一致,继续讲述地球给我们提供了什么,C选项“It gives us food, water, shelter and natural beauty.”讲述的是地球给我们提供的东西,符合题意,与上文是顺承关系,呼应下文的“what we have”故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据空前的“If you have already worked for or managed a factory that lets off harmful gases, or if you have gone hunting and killed something that shares harmony with us, there is no way to make it up to our planet.( 如果你效劳或管理一家排放有害气体的工厂,或者如果你去打猎并杀死了与我们和谐相处的动物,那就没有办法补偿我们的星球。)”可知,如果破坏了地球,就不会有弥补的方法,D选项“The minute a life is lost, forgiveness is not possible.(一旦失去生命,宽恕是不可能的。)”讲述的是生命一旦消失,宽恕便无可能,内容与空前一致,都是讲述破坏了的地球是无法弥补的。且选项中的forgiveness呼应下文的forgive。故选D项。
【19题详解】
分析语篇可知,空格上一段讲述的是如果地球遭到破坏,将会是无法弥补的,而空后“The only thing that really matters and helps is to just take care of the life around you.(唯一真正重要和有帮助的事情就是照顾好你周围的生命。)”讲述的是如何关爱地球,前后内容发生了转折,由此可判断,此空起到承上启下的作用,A选项“However, there are ways to help our planet not become worse so rapidly!(但是,有一些方法可以帮助我们的星球不会如此迅速地恶化!)”中的however为解题关键信息,内容与下文吻合,且与上文形成转折关系,符合逻辑。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据空前“Respect it and appreciate it and don’t ever take what you have for granted!(尊重它,欣赏它,永远不要把你所拥有的视为理所当然!)”可知,这是让地球不会很快变糟的做法,空后“Trees would be growing from the healthiest of soil instead of being firewood or just cut down to make room and space for another factory with more destructive chemicals.(树木将从最健康的土壤中生长出来,而不是作为柴火,或者只是砍伐树木,为另一家生产更具破坏性化学物质的工厂腾出空间。)”讲述的是这种做法可能会带来的好的变化,由此可推断,该空为承上启下,G选项“If everyone did that, creatures all over our world wouldn’t be endangered.(如果每个人都这样做,我们世界上的生物就不会濒临灭绝了。)”中的that指代的为空前的关爱地球的做法,且该句内容中也包含了这样做会对地球带来的好的变化,承接下文内容。故选G项。

考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。A. impression印象;B. movement运动,动作;C. imagination想象力;D. experience经验。根据文意和语境可判断,作者通过身体感受到的震动和想象力来感知音乐,故选C。
【30题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:我的整个声音世界是通过利用我拥有的几乎每一种感官而存在的。A. sense感觉,感官;B. effort努力;C. feeling感觉,感受;D. idea主意,想法。根据上文,作者听力丧失,所以只能协调其他的感官去“听”音乐。故选A。
【31题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意:我下定决心要被评为一名音乐家,而不是聋哑人音乐家,于是我向伦敦著名的皇家音乐学院提出了申请。A. dissatisfied不满意的;B. astonished震惊的;C. determined决定,坚定的;D. discouraged灰心的。根据语境及“and I applied to the famous Royal Academy of Music in London”可知,此处表达作者要立志成为音乐家,所以不难选出determined一词,其他三项感情色彩与文章主旨明显不符。故选C。
【32题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:以前没有其他聋哑学生这样做过,一些老师反对我入学。A. done做;B. accepted接受;C. advised建议;D. admitted承认。根据语境可知,作者耳患顽疾,且又申请著名的伦敦皇家音乐学院去学习,这在当时是没有哪个聋哑学生能够做到的,故选A。
【33题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意同上。A. supported支持;B. followed跟随;C. required需要;D. opposed反对。由上下文语境,再加上衔接词and(注意文中没用but,说明此处表示并列,而非转折)可推知,作者的行为自然要受到老师的反对。故选D。
【34题详解】
考查副词词义辨析。句意:基于我的表现,我最终被录取,并以学院最高荣誉毕业。A. usually通常;B. finally最后;C. possibly可能;D. hopefully有希望地。从“admitted”一词可知,作者大胆尝试,顶住压力,最终被皇家音乐学院录取,故选B。
【35题详解】

考查动词词义辨析。句意:因为很少有专门为打击乐手写的曲子,所以我写了和编排了很多曲子。A. wrote写;B. translated翻译;C. copied复制,抄写;D. read读。根据文章,作者经过不懈努力,后来成为第一位专职打击音乐独奏演员,写下并编排了很多曲子,下句“had been written specially for solo percussionists.”中written一词是同义复现,故选A。
【37题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意同上。A. enough足够的;B. some一些;C. many很多;D. few少量的。since引导原因状语从句,根据上下文逻辑,因为很少有人来专门为打击音乐独奏演员来谱曲,所以出现上文作者挺身而出,竭力为演员们来谱曲,故选D。
【38题详解】
考查连词词义辨析。句意:虽然医生认为我完全聋了,但这并不意味着我的激情不能实现。A. However无论以何种方式;B. Although尽管;C. When当……时候;D. Since自从。结合句意可知,此处表示让步,应用although引导让步状语从句。故选B。

【40题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:我会鼓励人们不要让自己受到他人的限制。A. directed管理,指导;B. guided引导,指导;C. taught教;D. limited限制。根据下文“Follow your passion; follow your heart.”可知,作者鼓励追求本心,也就是不要被别人限制(limited)。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是美国自然历史博物馆通过开展活动给学生提供实现成为宇航员、天文学家或航天工程师的梦想的途径。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:博物馆激发人们成为宇航员、天文学家或航天工程师的梦想。an后跟可数名词的单数形式,此处意为“天文学家”,是astronomer,故填astronomer。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意:学生们在参观博物馆时可以看到从恐龙到遥远星系的一切,科学、技术、工程和数学在现实生活中的应用是显而易见的。from...to...是固定短语,意为“从……到……”,因此空格处是from,故填from。
【43题详解】
考查动名词。句意:它的目标是让这些“哇”的时刻成为培养未来STEM领导者的第一步。toward是介词,其后跟动名词作宾语,故填developing。
【44题详解】
考查不定式。句意:要开始在STEM领域建立职业生涯,学生需要实践经验和支持网络。根据语境可知,句子表示“要开始在STEM领域建立职业生涯,学生需要实践经验和支持网络”,空格处用不定式表目的,位于句首的单词首字母要大写,故填To start。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:他们需要一个让他们在学习时感到舒服的地方。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,关系词指代先行词place并在从句中作地点状语,故填where。
【46题详解】
考查冠词。句意:AMNH利用其作为校外环境的地位,收集、研究工具、非正式的教育者和科学人员。environment是泛指,前面要加不定冠词,out-of-school是元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an,故填an。
【47题详解】
考查连词。句意:博物馆训练科学家与学生一起工作,并为他们提供长达一年的、由科学家指导的研究机会。“trains its scientists to work with students”和“offers them year-long, scientist-mentored research opportunities”是并列关系,而且句子是肯定句,因此用and连接两句话,故填and。
【48题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。句意:学生有机会向公众展示他们的作品。句子表示“学生有机会向公众展示他们的作品”,空格处意为“他们的”,用形容词性物主代词their修饰名词work,故填their。
【49题详解】
考查时态。句意:迄今为止,已有1000多名学生参加了nasa主题的科学研究指导计划课程,并在期刊和会议上发表了他们的研究成果。由To date可知,句子时态用现在完成时,主语students是复数,因此空格处是have participated。故填have participated。
【50题详解】
考查副词。句意:他们进入大学的比例几乎达到100%,其中许多人积极参与学校的研究。空格处用副词修饰动词involved,active的副词是actively,意为“积极地”,故填actively。

4. learn前加to
5. think →thinks
6. 删除because后的of
7. keep →keeping
8.She →He
9.the →a
10. Last →Lastly
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍的是指导顾问麦克杜格尔先生(Mr. McDougall)给克里斯蒂(Kristy)提出的关于未来工作的几个建议。
【详解】1.考查名词。句意:克里斯蒂来找指导顾问麦克杜格尔先生,寻求有关未来工作的建议。advice为不可数名词,没有单复数形式的变化。故将advices改为advice。
2. 考查固定句型。句意: 麦克杜格尔说,将会有与信息技术、生物技术和绿色技术相关的新工作。分析句子结构可知,此处应为“there be”句型,所以不能使用表示“有”的实义动词have,且前有助动词will,使用be动词的原形。故将have改为be。
3. 考查并列连词。句意:麦克杜格尔说,将会有与信息技术、生物技术和绿色技术相关的新工作。结合句意可知,信息技术、生物技术以及绿色技术为并列结构,表示并列关系,而不是选择关系。故将or改为and。
4. 考查非谓语动词。句意:所以他建议克里斯蒂学习不同类型的技能。分析句子结构可知,此处应为advise sb. to do sth.意为“建议某人做某事”,不定式结构作宾补。故在learn前面加to。
5. 考查主谓一致。句意:首先,他认为学习新技能的能力很重要,因为未来人们可能会在很多年里找到四到五份工作。分析句子结构可知,think的主语为第三人称单数,且全文为一般现在时态。故将think改为thinks。
6. 考查原因状语从句。句意:首先,他认为学习新技能的能力很重要,因为未来人们可能会在很多年里找到四到五份工作。分析句子结构可知,because后面为原因状语从句,介词of后应该跟的是名词,代词或者是动名词短语作宾语。故删除because后的of。
7. 考查非谓语动词。句意:其次,利用互联网,学习新的IT技能并跟上技术发展将非常重要。分析句子结构可知,keep up with technology developments与前面的using the Internet和learning new IT skills为并列结构,所以此处不能使用动词原形。故将keep改为keeping。
8. 考查代词。句意:他还提到人们可能会再说一门语言。根据Mr. McDougall为男性以及全文中指代Mr. McDougall的代词均为he,所以此处的she指代的性别错误,且位于句首,首字母要大写。故将She改为He。
9. 考查冠词。句意:他还提到人们可能会再说一门语言。结合句意可知,此处表示的是“再学一门外语”,序数词前应为不定冠词,且language的第一个音节为辅音。故将the改为a。
10. 考查副词。句意:最后,他说批判性思维和创造力在未来至关重要。分析句子结构可知,此处应为副词,表示“最后”作状语,且位于句首,首字母要大写。故将Last改为Lastly。
