The day I first came acrss a harp (竖琴) is a memry stred by all my senses. In cntrast t the vivid clr in which I recall this first encunter, I still remember my parents faces turning pale when I annunced “I’m ging t play the harp!” My parents’ faces reflected then financial fears. But they still rented me a little harp and hired a man t teach me.
I felt cmplete every time I played the harp. Then smething happened: sheet music. Suddenly I had t learn this freign language in rder t cntinue t play What was nce an effrtless pleasure turned int a cnstant struggle My dyslexic (诵读困难的) bran ted n the beauty f the music but fught with the way it was taught I sn fund myself stuck in a lve-hate relatinship.
Fr my 16th birthday, my parents used their savings t buy me a harp. in the hpe that it might settle my relatinship with it But in the weeks that fllwed the harp explded.
The remains f the harp sat at the bttm f ur stairs fr several weeks. Eventually, my father and I built a fire t burn it.

Tw weeks later, an ld and small harp turned up I threw away all my music bks and started playing by ear and frm the heart All the passin came back.

Spiders dn’t have ears like we d, and many have pr eyesight. But they can sense vibratins (振动). Instead f eardrums that turn sundwave pressure int signals fr ur brains, spiders hear using tiny, sensitive hairs that mve in respnse t sunds.
Previusly, researchers had measured hw a single thin piece f spider silk mved in respnse t sunds in the air They fund that the web silk itself is really gd at detecting sunds. In a new study, Rn Miles frm Binghamtn University and his c-authrs prvided the first evidence that spiders can pick up sunds in anther way thrugh their webs.
T study hearing in animals, researchers placed rb-weaving spiders, which are knwn t make large, wheel-shaped rb webs, in a specially designed quiet rm. I hey tracked hw the spiders reacted t different sunds played n a ludspeaker Depending n hw lud the sund was, spiders stretched, turned r raised their frelegs Researchers nticed that the spiders turned their bdies tward the sund, suggesting they knew where the nise riginated.
The ability t use a web like a giant extended ear culd help spiders detect prey (猎物). If an insect is flying nearby, fr instance, “that’s ging t cause the web t vibrate because f the sund,” Miles said “That kind f gets the spider’s attentin.”
Spiders might even use their webs t tune in t a variety f sunds “We suspect that the spider is actually able t srt f adjust the tensin in the web in rder t pick up certain frequencies,” Miles said.
Mst micrphnes tday wrk by sensing pressure and turning it int an electrnic signal. But in the natural wrld, “spiders aren’t sensing pressure.” Miles said “Mst animals dn’t hear that way, they sense the mtin f the air” Future micrphnes, like thse used in hearing aids, culd be designed with this in mind.

C. By changing the tensin f its silkD. By making full use f different parts f its bdy
11．What is the significance f the discvery?
A. It culd help imprve micrphnes
B. It culd bring attentin t spider web-making
C. It culd highlight the rle f electrnic technlgy
D. It culd heighten public awareness f insect prtectin

答案：ut；ttal (l) ed；independently；cperatin；a；is；patterns；persnal；becming；s
解析：
①考查固定短语。句意：其中，故宫博物院脱颖而出。分析句意再根据空格前的stands可知，此处用固定短语stand ut表示"突出、脱颖而出"。故填ut。
②考动词的时态。句意：据故宫博物院副院长介绍，去年故宫文化创意产品的销售总额为10亿元
。分析句式结构可知，空格处是谓语动词的位置，再根据last yearT可知，本句的时态应该用一般过去时，所以谓语动词用动词的过去式形式。故填ttal ed/ttalled。
③考查副词。句意：故宫博物院通过P授权或与其他公司合作，独立开发了近10000种不同的文化创意产品，与创意设计公司LKK等合作伙伴合作，为故宫博物院设计了17个主题的800多个类别的产品。分析句式结构可知，空格处用提示词的副词形式作状语修饰谓语动词。故填independently。
④考查名词的固定搭配。句意：故宫博物院通过1P授权或与其他公司合作，独立开发了近10000种不同的文化创意产品，与创意设计公司LKK等合作伙伴合作，为故宫博物院设计了17个主题的800多个类别的产品。分析句式结构可知，空格处应该用名词作介词in的宾语构成固定搭配in cperatin with表示"与…合作"。故填cperatin。

⑥考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：故宫最受欢迎的文化创意产品之一是以古代碗、盘子或衣服上的美丽图案为灵感的胶带。分析句式结构可知，本句是倒装句，主语tape是第三人称单数，且时态为一般现在时，所以be动词用is。故填is。
⑦考查可数名词的复数。句意：故宫最受欢迎的文化创意产品之一是以古代碗、盘子或衣服上的美丽图案为灵感的胶带。根据空格前的形容词beautifu可知，形容词应该修饰名词，所以空格处用提示词的名词形式pattern，又因为attern是可数名词，再分析句意可知，此处指"以古代碗、盘子或衣服上的美丽图案"，应该用名词复数形式。故填pat erns。
⑧考查形容词。句意：许多顾客用这种胶带来定制个人物品的外壳，将成品贴在网上成为一种流行趋势。分析句式结构可知，此处用形容词persn al作定语修饰名词litems。故填persnal。
⑨考查with复合结构。句意：许多顾客用这种胶带来定制个人物品的外壳，将成品贴在网上成为一种流行趋势。分析句式结构可知，此处是wth的复合结构，因为becme：和宾语之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词作宾补。故填becming。
