The Biggest Stadiums in the World
People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 80 A.D., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world’s best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.
These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities（容量） slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.
All these stadiums are still funtional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.
·Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang D.P.R. Korea. Capacity: 150,000. Opened: May 1,1989.
·Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U. S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened: October 1, 1927.
·Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U. S. Capacity: 106,572. Opened: September 17, 1960.
·Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio, U. S. Capacity: 104,944. Opened: October 7,1922.
·Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U. S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24, 1927.
1. How many people could the Circus Maximus hold?
A. 104,944. B. 107,601. C. About 150,000. D. About 250,000.
2. Of the following stadiums, which is the oldest?
A. Michigan Stadium. B. Beaver Stadium. C. Ohio Stadium. D. Kyle Field.
3. What do the listed stadiums have in common?
A. They host big games. B. They have become tourist attractions.
C. They were built by Americans. D. They are favored by architects.
【答案】1. D 2. C 3. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了世界上最大的体育场。目前这些体育场仍在运行并且还在承办大型体育赛事。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.(然而，与这座城市容纳了25万人的大竞技场相比，这只是小巫见大巫。)”可知，Circus Maximus的可以容纳250,000人。故选D项。

Opened October 7, 1922.(美国俄亥俄州哥伦布市俄亥俄体育场，容纳人数：104,944人。1922年10月7日开业。)”可知Ohio Stadium在1922年10月7日开业；由最后一段“Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U. S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened: October 1, 1927. （密歇根体育场，美国密歇根州安阿伯市，容量: 107,601人，开业日期: 1927年10月1日。）可知Michigan Stadium的开业时间是1927年10月1日；由文中最后一段“Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U. S. Capacity: 106,572. Opened: September 17, 1960. （美国宾夕法尼亚州立大学海狸体育馆，可容纳106,572人。开放时间: 1960年9月17日。）可知Beaver Stadium的开业时间是1960年9月17日；最后一段“Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U. S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24, 1927.（凯尔菲尔德，学院站，得克萨斯州，容量: 102,512。开放时间: 1927年9月24日。）”可知Kyle Field的开业时间是1927年9月24日；通过对比，Ohio Stadium的开业时间最久远，是最老的体育场。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“All these stadiums are still functional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport. (所有这些体育场馆仍在使用，仍在开放，仍在举办世界上最大的体育赛事。)”可知，这些体育馆都还在承办大型的体育赛事，这是他们的共同点。故选A项。

Papa’s jaw dropped when Mama told him that Sister had cheated on her final exams—not to succeed but to fail. “It’s unbelievable!” he said. “Sister has always been so proud of her good grades!”
“Yes, she has,” said Mama. “But it’s not unbelievable. It just shows how badly she wanted off the swimming team”.
“Wanted off the swimming team?”said Papa. “She never said anything about that to me.”
“Of course she didn’t.” said Mama. “She was afraid you’d blow your top.You already had her getting a swimming scholarship(奖学金) to college and winning gold medals at the Olympics. Can you imagine how much pressure she must have felt ? For her, being on the team couldn’t have been much fun.”
“Oh, my Gosh!” Papa said, clapping a hand to his forehand. “I’ve been so stupid! I just thought she’d want to be a champion swimmer because she’s so good at it.”
“It’s like anything else, dear,” said Mama, “No matter how good at it you are, if it stops being fun, you won’t want to do it anymore.”
Papa put his head in his hands.
“She must be really mad at me,”he mumbled.“Maybe I should say sorry to her.”
Sister’s footsteps could be heard on the stairs. She came into the kitchen and looked hopefully up at her parents with a smile.
“Honey,”said Mama with a smile. “Your Papa and I have decided that there’s no reason for you to be on the swimming team if you don’t want to.”
Sister’s face lit up like a Christmas tree. “Yippee!” she cried.
“And,”added Papa, “there’s no need for any more drills. I’m sure you’ll bring your grades back up all by yourself.”
Sister ran to Papa and jumped into his arms. She gave him a big hug. “I’m going to play cards with Lizzy!“ she said.”See you later!”
From the kitchen window, Mama and Papa watched their daughter run down the sunny road toward Lizzy’s house.
“It’s good to see her happy again,” said Mama,
“It sure is,“Papa agreed.“As for the swimming team, there’s always next year.”
“If?” Mama prompted him.
“Oh, right,” said Papa.“If she wants to.” Mama smiled. “At least you’re learning, dear.” she said. She kissed him.
“Well, you know what they say,” Papa said. “Better late than never”.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是在女儿考试作弊后母亲说服父亲改变对女儿的要求，不要让女儿做自己不喜欢的事情，应该尊重孩子的选择。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段母亲所说的““Yes, she has,” said Mama. “But it’s not unbelievable. It just shows how badly she wanted off the swimming team”.(“是的，是很自豪，”妈妈说。“但这并非难以置信。这只能说明她多么想离开游泳队。”。)”可知，女儿之所以考试作弊，是极其想要离开游泳队。故选B项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的““Wanted off the swimming team?” said Papa. “She never said anything about that to me.”(“想退出游泳队?”爸爸说。“她从来没跟我说过这件事。”。)”以及划线短语前的““Of course she didn’t.” said Mama. “She was afraid(“她当然没有。妈妈说。她很害怕)”可知，父亲认为孩子从没有跟他提过这件事情，母亲说的是，孩子从来不说是害怕你生气，结合选项可知，划线单词指的是“生气”。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“You already had her getting a swimming scholarship(奖学金) to college and winning gold medals at the Olympics. Can you imagine how much pressure she must have felt ? For her, being on the team couldn’t have been much fun.”(你已经让她获得了上大学的游泳奖学金，还在奥运会上赢得了金牌。你能想象她承受了多大的压力吗?对她来说，加入这个团队不会有什么乐趣。”。)”可知，父亲曾经让女儿拿到上大学的游泳奖学金，赢得奥运金牌，没有考虑过女儿压力有多大，母亲说在游泳队可能并不是快乐的，由此可知，父亲给了女儿太多的压力。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第十段中的““Honey,”said Mama with a smile. “Your Papa and I have decided that there’s no reason for you to be on the swimming team if you don’t want to.”(“亲爱的，”妈妈笑着说。“你爸爸和我已经决定，如果你不想参加游泳队，就没有理由再参加了。”。)”以及第十二段中的““And,” added Papa, “there’s no need for any more drills. I’m sure you’ll bring your grades back up all by yourself.”(“而且，”爸爸补充说，“没有必要再训练了。我相信你会靠自己把成绩提高的。”。)”可知，母亲告诉女儿父母决定了如果不想去游泳队就不去了，父亲也同意不需要更多的训练了，由此可推断，母亲成功说服了父亲改变主意。故选B项。
C
There’s a day for just about everything, and the United Nations has designated May 20 as World Bee Day to celebrate the pollinators (传粉昆虫) dwelling in hives, fields and gardens around the globe since 2015. It draws much concern on bees and there’s a good reason to pay attention to them.
“There are 20,000 species of bees around the world and a lot of these bees are in decline,” says Hien Ngo, a pollinator expert from the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization. That includes honeybees, of course, but Ngo says they only make up a minority of all the kinds of bees in the world. Climate change, pesticides and habitat loss are putting many of those species a risk.
“Bees really provide for us in many ways, like food and human well-being. They’re also important to our culture, dating back thousands of years in terms of heritage, inspiration of art,” Ngo says. They even provide inspiration for TikTok, where Erika Thompson，a professional beekeeper in Austin,Texas, shares her work.
“The landlord wanted to call an exterminator (根除者), but the family who lived here wanted to save the bees, so they called me,” she says in her video.
Her fans watch with happiness — and sometimes a little horror-as she picks up mounds (成堆) of bees with her bare hands and then moves them somewhere safer.
“I’ve removed bees from a lot of crazy places,” Thompson says. “You know, I’ve removed bees from homes, RVs, tires, speakers and even a toilet.”
Thompson’s work is about more than getting millions of views per video. “Bees are just a key factor in creating diverse and healthy ecosystems,” she notes.
8. What can we know about World Bee Day?
A. It has a long history of hundreds of years.
B. It is celebrated on May 22 every year.
C It is designated by the United Kingdom.
D. People pay more attention to bees because of it.
9. Which factor that makes many bees in danger is NOT mentioned?
A. The change of climate. B. The shortage of food.
C. The damage to their habitat. D. The application of pesticides.
10. What’s Ngo’s attitude towards celebrating World Bee Day?
A. Unconcerned. B. Neutral (中立的).
C. Negative. D. Supportive.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. A Video-on Bees
B. How to Celebrate World Bee Day?
C. Why Should We Celebrate World Bee Day?
D. How Can We Human Beings Protect Bees?
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了庆祝世界蜜蜂日的原因。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It draws much concern on bees and there’s a good reason to pay attention to them. (它引起了人们对蜜蜂的极大关注，有充分的理由关注它们)”可知，因为世界蜜蜂日，人们对蜜蜂更加关注了。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Climate change, pesticides and habitat loss are putting many of those species risk. (气候变化、杀虫剂和栖息地的丧失正使许多这些物种面临风险) ”可知气候变化、杀虫剂和栖息地的丧失都是让许多蜜蜂濒临灭亡的原因。所有选项未提及的一个原因是B项（食物短缺）。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段Nigo所说的话“Bees really provide for us in many ways. They’re also important to our culture, dating back thousands of years in terms of heritage, inspiration of art. (蜜蜂确实在很多方面为我们提供了帮助。它们对我们的文化也很重要，可以追溯到几千年前的遗产和艺术灵感)”可知，Nigo是支持世界蜜蜂日的。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“There’s a day for just about everything, and the United Nations has designated May 20 as World Bee Day to celebrate the pollinators (传粉昆虫) dwelling in hives, fields and gardens around the globe. ( 几乎每件事都有特定的一天，联合国已将5月20日定为世界蜜蜂日，以庆祝这个世界各地蜂房、农田和花园中的传粉者。)”以及最后一段“Thompson’s work is about more than getting millions of views per video. “Bees are just a key factor in creating diverse and healthy ecosystems,” she notes. (汤普森的工作不仅仅是让每个视频获得数百万次观看。她指出：“蜜蜂只是创造多样化和健康的生态系统的关键因素。”) ”可知，本文是在讲述为什么要成立世界蜜蜂日，C项“Why Should We Celebrate World Bee Day (为什么我们应该庆祝世界蜜蜂日)”符合文意，最适合作为本文标题。故选C。
D
If you ever visit an English village, make sure to look out for morris dancing. Undoubtedly one of the strangest traditions of English culture, morris dancing is a form of folk dancing that dates back to the 15th century. If you ever get the opportunity, you really have to see it.
Men and women wearing old-fashioned, shabby（破烂的）clothing dance in the streets of towns and villages across the country during the holiday periods. Women wear long skirts and men wear short trousers with bells attached to them. They dance to traditional folk music which is often played on traditional musical instruments.
Some groups carry heavy black sticks with which they beat against each other while they dance. Other groups wave handkerchiefs in the air while they perform. The dances are usually performed near a pub so that when they’re over, the dancers and audience can sing some traditional folk songs over beer. The celebrations will often continue long into the night.
Morris dancing is a great English tradition but it’s facing a big crisis. As the years go by, fewer and fewer young people are joining morris dancing groups. The dancers are getting older and older and eventually, if not protected, the tradition will die out within the next few decades.
If you’ve ever had the fortune to see morris dancing, you may understand why teenagers aren’t rushing to sign up. Frankly, it’s not exactly the coolest thing for an 18-year-old to do. Why dress up in bells and funny costumes when you could be going camping, playing sports or doing anything else?
However, it would be a great shame to lose such a fun and lively part of England’s history and culture. So here’s a toast to the next generation of would-be morris dancers! Let’s hope they don’t leave it too late.
12. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The origins of moris dancing.
B. The popularity of morris dancing.
C. The protection of morris dancing.
D. The introduction of morris dancing.
13. What do we know about morris dancers?
A. They dance in pubs late into the night.
B. They perform with sticks or handkerchiefs.
C. They wear long dresses with bells attached.
D. They sing folk music while they dance.
14. What is the present situation of morris dancing?
A. It is losing appeal among young people.
B. It is keeping pace with people's demand.
C. It is witnessing great changes in history.
D. It is being criticized by modern people.
15. What does the author think about morris dancing?
A. It helps stay healthy.
B. It is fun for teenagers.
C. It deserves more attention.
D. It is too old-fashioned.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【分析】这一篇说明文。短文介绍了即将失传的英国民间传统舞蹈---莫里斯舞，包括莫里斯舞的起源、表演方式、现状等。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段“Undoubtedly one of the strangest traditions of English culture, morris dancing is a form of folk dancing that dates back to the 15th century”可知，莫里斯舞无疑是英国文化中最奇怪的传统之一，它是一种可以追溯到15世纪的民间舞蹈。以及下文对介绍莫里斯舞具体的介绍，可以判断出，这篇文章的主要内容是关于莫里斯舞蹈的介绍。故D选项正确。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中的“Some groups carry heavy black sticks with which they beat against each other while they dance. Other groups wave handkerchiefs in the air while they perform”可知，有些人拿着沉重的黑色棍子，跳舞时用它们互相殴打。其他人表演时在空中挥舞手帕。所以莫里斯舞者用棍子或手帕表演。B故选项正确。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由第四段第二句“As the years go by, fewer and fewer young people are joining morris dancing groups”可知，随着时间的推移，参加莫里斯舞蹈团的年轻人越来越少。所以，莫里斯舞蹈的现状是它对年轻人的吸引力正在下降。故A选项正确。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段“However, it would be a great shame to lose such a fun and lively part of England’s history and culture”可知，然而，失去英格兰历史和文化中如此有趣和有活力的一部分将是一个巨大的遗憾。所以通过关键词“ shame，fun，part of England’s history and culture”可以判断出，作者认为莫里斯的舞蹈值得更多的关注，需要被保护。故C选项正确。

语法填空的解题技巧：
语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力。我们在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意，有把握的空格可以进行填写。在读懂的基础上，再结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析逐题解答。按题型设计分三种情况：
1. 纯空格试题的解题技巧。
首先分析句子结构，根据所缺成分确定哪类词。然后根据句子意思，确定具体填什么词，或根据两句间的逻辑关系确定具体用哪个连词。
2. 给出了动词的试题解题技巧。
首先，判断要填的动词是谓语动词还是非谓语动词。若句子没有别的谓语动词或者虽然已有谓语动词，但需填的动词与之是并列关系，所给动词就是谓语动词，若是谓语动词就要考虑时态和语态；若句子有谓语动词则用非谓语动词（动词不定式、现在分词、动名词和过去分词）。
3. 词汇转换题解题技巧。
这类题主要考查名词、形容词和副词。根据所给词在句中所作句子成分确定用哪种形式。
