A
As a child, I was prud f my suthern rigin. My wn vice reflected my family’s past and present-part nrthern Mississippi, part Tennessee, all suthern. There was n sund I lved mre than my grandmther’s accent: thick, sweet, warm.
While grwing up, I began t realize utside f ur regin, sutherners were ften dismissed as uncultured and ignrant. I was ready t leave behind my tiny twn in West Tennessee, starting a new life and jumping at big chances in sme far-ff cities. In that embarrassing space between “teen” and “adult”, my accent was a symbl f everything I thught I hated abut my life in the rural Suth. I feared it wuld disqualify me frm being a nted magazine writer. I wuld have t talk less “cuntry”. S I killed a piece f myself. I’m ashamed f it, but I’m mre ashamed that I tried t kill that part f smene else-change Emily’s accent.
I met Emily in cllege. She was determined t wrk fr the student newspaper, which was where I spent mst f my waking hurs, and we became friends. She, unlike me, accepted her rts. Early in ur friendship, her mther asked where I was frm, assuming it was smewhere up nrth. Then I felt my effrts paid ff and even wanted t ignre the mistake.
Emily is tw years yunger and she cared abut my pinin. I advised her t be mre like me and hide her signature Manchester accent. I stressed that thrughut ur cllege years, ften by making fun f her vwel (元音) sunds. I tld myself I was helping her achieve her dream f wrking as a reprter. Nw, I see that it was actually abut justifying my hiding part f myself.
Grandma Carlyn used t tell me, “Girl, dn’t frget where yu cme frm.” Nw I truly understand that. Many things have faded frm memry, but this sticks in my mind with uncmfrtable clarity. Nw that I am grwn and have left the Suth, it’s imprtant t me.
36. What made the authr want t leave her hmetwn?
A. Appeal f cnvenience in cities.
B. Her dream f becming a writer.
C. Outside prejudice against sutherners.
D. Her desire fr the nrthern accent.
37. Hw did the authr feel abut the mistake f Emily’s mther?

38. Why n earth did the authr try t change Emily’s accent?
A. T prve herself right.B. T help Emily be a reprter.
C. T make herself influential.D. T prtect Emily’s self-dignity.

Schlars have lng debated hw and when the Renaissance began. One thing, hwever, that mst schlars agree upn is the significance f this histrical perid as an evlutinary mvement tward individualism in art and thught. Althugh there is n histrical agreement n the exact time rder f events leading t the Renaissance, many histrians agree that visinaries f the fifteenth century had a sense f belnging t a mvement far greater than themselves and s far-reaching as t supersede the artistic and literary frms f the classical era. This phenmenn prduced the Renaissance, a perid when art, literature, language, and philsphy fund new and extrardinary interpretatins in the hands f the Humanists. Humanists believed in the imprtance f the humanities r “human letters”. Eventually, intellectuals f this perid became aware f man’s inner ptential.
The furteenth century Italian pet Petrarch characterized the early stage f this mvement as the New Age. In fact, it was his term, “Rinascita”, which cmes frm the Latin “renasci”, t be rebrn, that eventually led t the term Renaissance that we use tday.
Petrarch believed that the end f classical antiquity and the beginning f a thusand years f darkness, which he characterized as “the Dark Ages”, came with the destructin f the Rman Empire by invasins in 476 A.D. The awakening frm this perid was a time f rebirth, which he distinguished as the New Age. Petrarch’s view limited the Rinascita t the cmeback f Latin and Greek classics frm antiquity based n translatins f ancient text. Mst significant was his belief that the pagans (异教徒) f antiquity were much inspired by the pursuit f arts and literature in an effrt t reach the highest ptential f perfectin n earth. This belief led t a new sense f individualism and enlightenment that characterized the age f the Renaissance as ne that was against the ld beliefs that man’s earthly life was merely a functin f the scial rder. Frm the furteenth century thrugh the early seventeenth century, this new individualism grew steadily in Western Eurpean culture with a mtivatin fed by man’s desire t define and evaluate the essential values between men f antiquity and the emerging mdern man.
Nt nly did artists and writers turn t classical culture fr inspiratin, they set new gals. They explred the relatinship between ancient cultures and their wn cultures, and by ding s, they discvered a new visin f human life, f man as a glrius creature capable f develping his mind and bdy t reach his fullest ptential tward perfectin.

D. He translated ancient texts t Latin and Greek, leading t the start f the Renaissance.

When it cmes t risky behavir, adlescence is the perfect strm. In fact, teens are hardwired t seek challenge. Accrding t a study by University Cllege Lndn (UCL), risk-taking behavir peaks during adlescence. As an adlescent’s scial-emtinal system matures, they lng fr stimulatin and teen challenge.
Mrever, the study fund that teens tk risks because they enjyed the thrill. In fact, they ften understd the cnsequences f their behavir. Hwever, the desire t take risks was strnger than their cmmn sense. That’s because the teen brain is nt fully develped. Therefre, the areas cntrlling impulses (冲动) and decisin-making are still immature.

Scientists fund that the teenagers tk the mst risks cmpared with the ther grups. In fact, 14-year ld teens demnstrated the mst risky behavir. In ther wrds, they were cnstantly seeking challenge and excitement.

Scientists measured hw their brains respnded when they fund ut whether their answers were right r wrng. The teenagers’ brains released the highest levels f dpamine, a chemical assciated with pleasure. Dpamine mtivates the brain t seek rewards and is linked t addictin. Thus, the researchers cncluded that teens are mre willing t take risks in rder t experience rewards.
Risk-taking isn’t always a bad thing if it takes place within safe bundaries. In fact, a certain level f safe, psitive risk-taking is essential fr teens t develp their sense f self and gain self-esteem (自尊). Healthy risk-taking activities include playing sprts, utdr adventures, perfrming n stage, and reaching ut t make new friends.
In cnclusin, there’s n getting arund it: Teens will always seek thrills and push the limits. They’re made that way. But parents can help them find healthy challenges that supprt grwth and reduce risk.
44. What is the reasn fr teens’ tendency t take risks?
A. They lack cmmn sense and decisin-making ability.
B. They dn’t understand the cnsequences f their behavir.
C. They enjy the excitement and actively pursue stimulatin.

【解析】
【详解】考查时态和主谓一致。句意:富兰克林和许多其他科学家一样,激励我们通过进行实验来做出科学发现。分析句子可知,本句主语为Franklin,为第三人称单数形式,所以谓语动词也用第三人称单数形式,结合选项,可以排除A、C项,且D项为过去完成时,表“过去的过去”,不符合语境,所以这里可选B项,用现在完成时,表过去发生的事情对现在的影响,符合句意。故选B项。
14. All her time _________ experiments, she has n time fr entertainment.
A. devted t dingB. devted t d
C. devting t dD. is devted t ding
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:她把她的一生都贡献给了实验,没有时间娱乐。这里逗号后是一个完整的句子,逗号前All her time _________ experiments没有引导词,所以它不是从句;中间是逗号,没有并列连词,也不可能是并列句;句子的主语是she,all her time是所在句子的逻辑主语,与devte是被动关系,所以此处是独立主格结构,再根据devte all ne's time t ding意为“把一生贡献给做某事”。故选A。
【名师点睛】
非谓语动词作状语,其逻辑主语须与主句主语保持一致。若不一致,非谓语动词形式须另带主语,从而构成复合结构的形式作状语。这种结构称为“独立结构”。其中,非谓语动词主动用现在分词,被动用过去分词。所以独立主格结构由两部分组成,前一部分是名词或者代词,后一部分是非谓语动词(不定式、现在分词、过去分词)或形容词、副词、名词或介词短语。前后两部分具有逻辑主谓关系。独立主格结构在句中作状语,多用于书面语。独立主格结构本身不是句子,在句子中作状语,表时间、原因、条件、伴随、目的及状态等。如本题即为独立主格结构。
15. remains significant is we have an incredible desire t think and create. That’s the real spirit f inventin.
A. That; thatB. What; thatC. That; whatD. What; what
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查主语从句和表语从句。句意:重要的是,我们有一种难以置信的思考和创造的欲望。这是发明的真正精神。第一空引导主语从句,从句缺少主语,指物,应用what;第二空引导表语从句,从句不缺少成分,句意完整,故用that。故选B。

A
As a child, I was prud f my suthern rigin. My wn vice reflected my family’s past and present-part nrthern Mississippi, part Tennessee, all suthern. There was n sund I lved mre than my grandmther’s accent: thick, sweet, warm.
While grwing up, I began t realize utside f ur regin, sutherners were ften dismissed as uncultured and ignrant. I was ready t leave behind my tiny twn in West Tennessee, starting a new life and jumping at big chances in sme far-ff cities. In that embarrassing space between “teen” and “adult”, my accent was a symbl f everything I thught I hated abut my life in the rural Suth. I feared it wuld disqualify me frm being a nted magazine writer. I wuld have t talk less “cuntry”. S I killed a piece f myself. I’m ashamed f it, but I’m mre ashamed that I tried t kill that part f smene else-change Emily’s accent.
I met Emily in cllege. She was determined t wrk fr the student newspaper, which was where I spent mst f my waking hurs, and we became friends. She, unlike me, accepted her rts. Early in ur friendship, her mther asked where I was frm, assuming it was smewhere up nrth. Then I felt my effrts paid ff and even wanted t ignre the mistake.
Emily is tw years yunger and she cared abut my pinin. I advised her t be mre like me and hide her signature Manchester accent. I stressed that thrughut ur cllege years, ften by making fun f her vwel (元音) sunds. I tld myself I was helping her achieve her dream f wrking as a reprter. Nw, I see that it was actually abut justifying my hiding part f myself.
Grandma Carlyn used t tell me, “Girl, dn’t frget where yu cme frm.” Nw I truly understand that. Many things have faded frm memry, but this sticks in my mind with uncmfrtable clarity. Nw that I am grwn and have left the Suth, it’s imprtant t me.

Schlars have lng debated hw and when the Renaissance began. One thing, hwever, that mst schlars agree upn is the significance f this histrical perid as an evlutinary mvement tward individualism in art and thught. Althugh there is n histrical agreement n the exact time rder f events leading t the Renaissance, many histrians agree that visinaries f the fifteenth century had a sense f belnging t a mvement far greater than themselves and s far-reaching as t supersede the artistic and literary frms f the classical era. This phenmenn prduced the Renaissance, a perid when art, literature, language, and philsphy fund new and extrardinary interpretatins in the hands f the Humanists. Humanists believed in the imprtance f the humanities r “human letters”. Eventually, intellectuals f this perid became aware f man’s inner ptential.
The furteenth century Italian pet Petrarch characterized the early stage f this mvement as the New Age. In fact, it was his term, “Rinascita”, which cmes frm the Latin “renasci”, t be rebrn, that eventually led t the term Renaissance that we use tday.
Petrarch believed that the end f classical antiquity and the beginning f a thusand years f darkness, which he characterized as “the Dark Ages”, came with the destructin f the Rman Empire by invasins in 476 A.D. The awakening frm this perid was a time f rebirth, which he distinguished as the New Age. Petrarch’s view limited the Rinascita t the cmeback f Latin and Greek classics frm antiquity based n translatins f ancient text. Mst significant was his belief that the pagans (异教徒) f antiquity were much inspired by the pursuit f arts and literature in an effrt t reach the highest ptential f perfectin n earth. This belief led t a new sense f individualism and enlightenment that characterized the age f the Renaissance as ne that was against the ld beliefs that man’s earthly life was merely a functin f the scial rder. Frm the furteenth century thrugh the early seventeenth century, this new individualism grew steadily in Western Eurpean culture with a mtivatin fed by man’s desire t define and evaluate the essential values between men f antiquity and the emerging mdern man.
Nt nly did artists and writers turn t classical culture fr inspiratin, they set new gals. They explred the relatinship between ancient cultures and their wn cultures, and by ding s, they discvered a new visin f human life, f man as a glrius creature capable f develping his mind and bdy t reach his fullest ptential tward perfectin.
40. The wrd “supersede” (in paragraph 1) mst prbably means ________.
A. keep pace withB. make full use f
C. give rise tD. take the place f
41. Which f the fllwing shws the crrect time rder (frm far t near) f the three perids?
A. the Dark Ages, the Renaissance, the Rman Empire
B. the Renaissance, the Rman Empire, the Dark Ages
C. the Rman Empire, the Dark Ages, the Renaissance
D. the Dark Ages, the Rman Empire, the Renaissance
42. Why is Petrarch mentined in the passage?
A. He cined the term “Renaissance”, which has been in use fr ver 700 years.
B. His belief in persnal perfectin was the fundamental idea f the Renaissance.
C. His predictin f the cmeback f Latin and Greek classics inspired many artists.
D. He translated ancient texts t Latin and Greek, leading t the start f the Renaissance.
43. What can be cncluded abut artists and writers during perid f the Renaissance?

B. They develped their wn cultures frm ancient nes.
C. They went beynd the classics with a new individualism.
D. They did nthing mre than recapture the glry f the ancients.

【40题详解】
词句猜测题。根据该单词下一句“This phenmenn prduced the Renaissance, a perid when art, literature, language, and philsphy fund new and extrardinary interpretatins in the hands f the Humanists.(这一现象产生了文艺复兴时期,在这个时期,艺术、文学、语言和哲学在人文主义者的手中找到了新的、非凡的解释)”可知,这场运动的影响非常深远,艺术、文学、语言和哲学都有了全新的解释。由此判断,这场运动取代了之前古典时期的艺术和文学形式。选项A“keep pace with (和……一致)”;选项B“make full use f (充分利用)”;选项C“give rise t (导致)”;选项D“take the place f (取代)”。故选D。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Petrarch believed that the end f classical antiquity and the beginning f a thusand years f darkness, which he characterized as “the Dark Ages”, came with the destructin f the Rman Empire by invasins in 476 A.D. The awakening frm this perid was a time f rebirth, which he distinguished as the New Age. Petrarch’s view limited the Rinascita t the cmeback f Latin and Greek classics frm antiquity based n translatins f ancient text. Mst significant was his belief that the pagans (异教徒) f antiquity were much inspired by the pursuit f arts and literature in an effrt t reach the highest ptential f perfectin n earth. This belief led t a new sense f individualism and enlightenment that characterized the age f the Renaissance as ne that was against the ld beliefs that man’s earthly life was merely a functin f the scial rder. (Petrarch认为,随着公元476年罗马帝国被入侵摧毁,古典古代的终结和千年黑暗的开始(他称之为“黑暗时代”)随之而来。从这一时期开始的觉醒是一个重生的时期,他将其称为新时代。Petrarch的观点将“复兴”限制在以古代文本翻译为基础的拉丁语和希腊语经典的回归上。最重要的是他相信古代的异教徒受到了对艺术和文学的追求的启发,努力达到地球上完美的最高潜力。这种信念导致了一种新的个人主义和启蒙思想,这是文艺复兴时代的特征,它与认为人类的世俗生活只是社会秩序的一个功能的旧信仰相抵触)”可知,罗马帝国后为黑暗时代,然后为文艺复兴时代。故选C。
【42题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The furteenth century Italian pet Petrarch characterized the early stage f this mvement as the New Age. In fact, it was his term, “Rinascita”, which cmes frm the Latin “renasci”, t be rebrn, that eventually led t the term Renaissance that we use tday.(14世纪意大利诗人Petrarch将这一运动的早期阶段称为“新时代”。事实上,正是他的术语“Rinascita”,来自拉丁语“renasci”,意思是重生,最终导致了我们今天使用的“文艺复兴”一词)”以及第三段“Petrarch’s view limited the Rinascita t the cmeback f Latin and Greek classics frm antiquity based n translatins f ancient text. Mst significant was his belief that the pagans (异教徒) f antiquity were much inspired by the pursuit f arts and literature in an effrt t reach the highest ptential f perfectin n earth.

【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Nt nly did artists and writers turn t classical culture fr inspiratin, they set new gals. They explred the relatinship between ancient cultures and their wn cultures, and by ding s, they discvered a new visin f human life, f man as a glrius creature capable f develping his mind and bdy t reach his fullest ptential tward perfectin.(艺术家和作家不仅从古典文化中寻找灵感,而且还设定了新的目标。他们探索了古代文化和他们自己的文化之间的关系,通过这样做,他们发现了人类生活的新愿景,即人类是一种璀璨的生物,能够发展他的思想和身体,以充分发挥他的潜力,走向完美)”可推知,文艺复兴时代的艺术家们和作家们从古典文化中寻求灵感,同时又超越了古典并最终成就了完美的自我。故选C。
