Sometime in 1885 or 1886, Arthur Conan Doyle was doodling (信手乱涂) on a sheet of paper. Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s Auguste Dupin, he had the idea for a “consulting detective”, who would also use “the Rules of Evidence” to catch his man. But what would he be called? “Ormond Sacker”? “Sherrinford Holmes”?
Had he settled on either of these alternatives, the modern-day fan clubs would be able to look closely through their magnifying glasses (放大镜) at that historic piece of paper at an exhibition opening at the Museum of London on Friday.
Sherlock Holmes: The Man Who Never Lived and Will Never Die is the first major show for the great detective since a Holmes display graced the Festival of Britain in 1951. It’s a winningly silly title: there are an unlimited number of men who never lived and wil never die, and a very large number of fictional creations of whom the same could also be said. But you can see what they are getting at.
It is likely that the show should take place at the Museum of London. Holmes occupied perhaps London’s most famous imaginary address — 221B Baker Street — and Dr. Watson wrote that his “knowledge of the byways of London was extraordinary”. In the form of his “Baker Street Irregulars”, he even employed a street-level spy-network o the homeless. London is often described as another character in the stories.
But, as historian David Cannadine points out in a fine, questioning essay in a new book accompanying the exhibition, Holmes’s London is actually only sketchily imagined in the stories. Conan Doyle grew up in Edinburgh, was educated in Lancashire and Austria, and lived in central London for less than a year before moving first to South Norwood, then in short order to Hindhead in Surrey and later to Sussex. To move Holmes around the capital, Conan Doyle used contemporary books of street maps and the London Post Office Directory. And he made all sorts of mistakes.
Also, before fan-fiction as we think of it now got under way, the Holmes stories led to a strange academic version of fan-fiction: Holmesians, taking a scholarly interest in the texts almost on the assumption that Holmes and Watson were real historical characters.
It should be noted that Conan Doyle himself didn’t sweat the details. Everything from the location of Watson’s old war wound to his marital situation and the address of his consulting room was distinctly patchy (东拼西凑的).
Holmes is, or might as well be, a magician. In this respect, the modern BBC TV adaptations — whose leaps of tricks I’ve seen complained about — are in keeping with Conan Doyle’s originals.
He’s not the product, not any more, of a single author. And he’s never going to be on the reader’s level — nor that of his friend Dr. Watson. Conan Doyle’s consulting detective is, made by the imaginations of others, a sort of god. And like all the best gods, he is — as the new exhibition’s title indicates — both imaginary and everlasting.
26.What do Auguste Dupin and Sherlock Holmes share in common according to the author?
A.They are both fictional detectives that lived in London.
B.They are both characters created by Arthur Conan Doyle.
C.They both use “the Rules of Evidence” to solve cases.
D.They both use magnifying glasses.
27.According to the passage, the sentence “Holmes’s London is actually only sketchily imagined in the stories” in paragraph 5 means that ______.
A.London is an important setting in the Sherlock Holmes stories
B.the city of London in the novel is different from how it really is
C.London is home to the two main characters, Sherlock and Watson
D.the author Conan Doyle made a lot of mistakes when in London
28.The word “Holmesians” in paragraph 6 probably refers to______.
A.super fans of Holmes
B.scholars interested in Holmes
C.studies about Holmes
D.mysteries concerning Holmes
【答案】26.C
27.B
28.A
【解析】
【导语】
本文是一篇说明文。文章借周五伦敦博物馆的一次展览引出关于福尔摩斯这一人物创作过程中的一些话题。
26.
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s Auguste Dupin, he had the idea for a ‘consulting detective’, who would also use ‘the Rules of Evidence’ to catch his man. But what would he be called? ‘Ormond Sacker’? ‘Sherrinford Holmes’? (受埃德加•爱伦•坡的小说《Auguste Dupin》的启发,他产生了“顾问侦探”的想法,这个侦探也会利用“证据规则”来抓住他的目标。但他叫什么名字呢?“Ormond Sacker”?“Sherrinford Holmes”?)”可知,Sherrinford Holmes是根据德加•爱伦•坡的小说《Auguste Dupin》创作的人物,他们都使用“the Rules of Evidence(证据规则)”来解决案件。故选C项。
27.
词句猜测题。根据第五段中对作者成长经历的描写“Conan Doyle grew up in Edinburgh, was educated in Lancashire and Austria, and lived in central London for less than a year before moving first to South Norwood(柯南·道尔在爱丁堡长大,在兰开夏郡和奥地利接受教育,在伦敦市中心住了不到一年就搬到了南诺伍德)”和他创作方式的描写“To move Holmes around the capital, Conan Doyle used contemporary books of street maps and the London Post Office Directory. And he made all sorts of mistakes.(为了让福尔摩斯在伦敦四处走动,柯南·道尔使用了当时的街道地图书籍和伦敦邮局指南。他犯了各种各样的错误)”可知,柯南·道尔伦敦并不熟悉,所以历史学家大卫·康纳汀说“Holmes’s London is actually only sketchily imagined in the stories.(福尔摩斯笔下的伦敦实际上只是故事中粗略的想象)”是为了表明:小说中的伦敦和真实的伦敦的面貌是不一样的。故选B项。
28.
词句猜测题。根据第六段“Holmesians”一词后“taking a scholarly interest in the texts almost on the assumption that Holmes and Watson were real historical characters.(几乎假定福尔摩斯和华生是真实的历史人物,对这些文本产生了学术上的兴趣)”可推知,Holmesians是一群把虚构的福尔摩斯与华生当作真实历史人物来研究的读者,是福尔摩斯的一群超级粉丝。故选A项。
C
I spend half of my life with my mother and the other half with my father. My father lives with a twenty-pound cat named Tofu. He calls me his favorite daughter. I am the only child.
My father's apartment is quite different from any other people's living space.Except for my room,there is no furniture.He doesn't like sofas or any comfortable chairs,so he has only a drawing table,a desk and a bed. For three years he has resisted buying a stereo because he thinks it's ugly and will mess up his studio.
From my father's studio, window, you can see a large part of San Francisco. Í like to watch the colors change in the bay when the sun is setting.All the walls are white, and framed posters of my father's last three books hang side by side. He spends a lot of time lying on the studio floor. That's how he thinks,he says. Then he does yoga. He has a big kitchen,and on top of the Refrigeration is an old clock he winds every week for good luck. The last time the clock stopped, my father's car was pulled away by the police and some other unfortunate things happened, so he has become very superstitious(迷信). When he goes out of town, he hires someone to feed Tofu and wind the clock so it won't stop.
The one thing he has plenty of is house rules. You have to take off your shoes when you came in. He won't allow anyone who wears a baseball cap into his house. He says only baseball players should wear baseball caps and only the catchers should wear them backward. Every time I go to stay at his house, he makes up a new rule. "House rule number 579,no television programs with laugh tracks!" he will say. Well then he can never remember the numbers, so they change constantly.
The rule that he always enforces is the one that requires me to write a two-page-long essay anytime I want something.He didn't speak English until he was sixteen, and he had a hard time learning to write it,so he wants me to become a good writer at an early age.The ritual started when I asked him if I could have my ear pierced when I was nine.He said it was barbaric and told me I couldn't do it until I was thirty-five.But I kept asking him, and he finally said that if I wrote an essay and I could persuade him in writing why I wanted holes in my ears, maybe he would say okay. I wrote my first essay for my father, and after one month of writing and rewriting,he backed down and gave me his permission.
29.Which statement is an example of a house rule?
A.No baseball players should wear caps backward.
B.Lying on the studio floor can improve the way of thinking.
C.Wearing shoes in the house is not acceptable.
D.Keeping Tofu fed and the clock wound is important.
30.Based on the passage, we can draw the conclusion except that
A.the writer's parents are separated.
B.writing a two-page-long essay is a well-meant intention of the father
C.there are in all 579 house rules and the number is growing
D.my father doesn't want a stereo in his house for its ugliness.
31.Which of the following means the closest to the underlined word "pierced" in paragraph 5?
A.A sudden scream pierced the silence.
B.The darkness was pierced by the light from the sun.
C.Boil the corn until it can easily be pierced with a fork.
D.The crazy man threatened to pierce the defense of the police.
32.What is the best title of the passage?
A.The Tension between My Father and Me B.A Father's Unusual Habits
C.A Caring Father D.A Challenging Teenager
【答案】29.C
30.C
31.C
32.B
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是父亲的各种不同寻常的习惯。
29.
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The one thing he has plenty of is house rules. You have to take off your shoes when you came in. ” 他有很多家规。你进来的时候必须脱掉鞋子。可知在室内穿鞋是不可接受的。故选C。
30.
推理判断类。本题题干意为:根据文章,我们可以得出结论,除了…。根据文中倒数第二段“House rule number 579, no television programs with laugh tracks!”he will say. Well then he can never remember the numbers, so they change constantly. 家庭规则第579,禁止播放有笑声的电视节目!他会说。那么他就永远记不住数字了,所以数字总是在变。我们从这句话里面并不能推断出是否总共有579个规则,更加不能推断出数目是属于增长的趋势。故选C。
31.
词义猜测题。根据文中pierce所在段落的后面一句“I wanted holes in my ears” 我想在耳朵上打个洞。可知题目中“pierce my ear“为穿耳洞,pierced为“刺穿”的意思。而选项中A为“声音响彻”,B为“光划破黑暗”,C为“刺穿”,D为“突破防守”,只有C“把玉米煮到可以用叉子很容易扎进去”最符合pierce在文中物理上的刺穿之意,故选C。
32.
主旨大意题。需根据全文内容判断,我们可知本文主要讲述了我与父亲生活的过程中,父亲在生活中的各种习惯。根据文章第二段“My father's apartment is quite different from any other people's living space.” 我父亲的公寓与别人的生活空间大不相同;第三段讲的是“ He spends a lot of time lying on the studio floor. That's how he thinks,he says. Then he does yoga. He has a big kitchen,and on top of the Refrigeration is an old clock he winds every week for good luck. The last time the clock stopped, my father's car was pulled away by the police and some other unfortunate things happened, so he has become very superstitious(迷信). When he goes out of town, he hires someone to feed Tofu and wind the clock so it won't stop. ” 他说,这就是他的想法。然后他做瑜伽。他有一个大厨房,冰箱上放着一个老钟,他每周都会上发条祈求好运。上次钟停的时候,我父亲的车被警察拖走了,还有一些其他不幸的事情发生了,所以他变得很迷信。当他出城的时候,他会雇人喂Tofu,给钟上发条,这样它就不会停止了。可知主要讲的是爸爸的生活习惯;第四段讲到家规;最后一段讲到“The rule that he always enforces is the one that requires me to write a two-page-long essay anytime I want something.” 他总是坚持的一条规则就是要求我在任何时候都要写一篇两页长的文章。是爸爸总是坚持的一条规则。可判断B选项 A father’s Unusual Habits(父亲不寻常的习惯)。为短文最佳标题,故需选B。
D
Full stops intimidate young people when used in social media communication as they are interpreted as a sign of anger, according to linguistic experts.
Teenagers and those in their early twenties, classified as Generation Z, have grown up with smartphones which they use to send short messages without full stops. Linguistic experts are now investigating why teens interpret a correctly-punctuated text as a signal of annoyance.
The debate became active again after writer Rhiannon Cosslett tweeted: “Older people, do you realise that ending a sentence with a full stop conies across as sort of abrupt and unfriendly to younger people in a message?” Genuinely curious. That caused crime novelist Sophie Hannah to reply: “Just asked 16-year-old son — apparently this is true. If he got a message with full stops at the end of sentences? He’d think the sender was weird, mean or too blunt.”
According to experts, youngsters used to communicating electronically break up their thoughts by sending each one as a separate message, rather than using a full stop, which they use only to signal they are annoyed. Some have said the full stop is unnecessary when used in texting because the message is ended just by sending it.
Linguist Dr Lauren Fonteyn of Leiden University in Holland tweeted: “If you send a text message without a full stop, it’s already obvious that you've concluded the message. So if you add that additional marker for completion, they will read something into it and it tends to be a falling intonation (语调) or negative tone. Make your sentence an open end. and it will make friends online very happy and relaxed. So full stops could be unnecessary in most cases.”
Professor David Crystal? one of the world’s leading language experts, argues that the usage of full stops is being “revised in a really fundamental way”. In his book, Making a Point, he says that the punctuation mark has become an “emotion marker” which warns the recipient (接受者) that the sender is angry or annoyed.
33.What does the underlined word “intimidate” probably mean in paragraph 1?
A.Frighten. B.Move. C.Delight. D.Reward.
34.Why do the Generation Z dislike full stops when texting?
A.Full stops end the conversation awkwardly.
B.Full stops make messages more boring.
C.Full stops are punctuation marks without any emotion.
D.Full stops are regarded as an indication of the sender's anger.
35.What is Dr Lauren Fonteyn's attitude to full stops for completion?
A.Skeptical. B.Conservative. C.Negative. D.Tolerant.
36.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.Will full stops be replaced in messages?
B.Does a full stop really conclude a message?
C.How do full stops make recipients embarrassed?
D.How do we understand punctuation marks in messages?
【答案】33.A
34.D
35.C

本文是说明文。文章介绍了在社交媒体交流中使用“句号”会让年轻人感到害怕,因为它们会被解读为愤怒的信号。
33.
词句猜测题。根据划线词后面的“as they are interpreted as a sign of anger, according to linguistic experts(根据语言学家的说法,因为它们被解读为愤怒的表现)”可知,they指的是上文中的Full stops。由此可知,年青人认为是Full stops在表达愤怒,所以看到Full stops时,他们很可能会感到害怕。故选A项。
34.
细节理解题。根据第一段“Full stops intimidate young people when used in social media communication as they are interpreted as a sign of anger, according to linguistic experts.(根据语言学家的说法,在社交媒体交流中使用“句号”会让年轻人感到害怕,因为它们会被解读为愤怒的信号)”和第二段中的“Linguistic experts are now investigating why teens interpret a correctly-punctuated text as a signal of annoyance.(语言专家正在研究为什么青少年会把标点符号正确的文本解读为一种恼怒的信号)”可知, Z一代不喜欢发信息时用句号是因为句号被认为是发件人恼怒的表达。故选D项。
35.
推理判断题。根据第五段中Dr Lauren Fonteyn 的话“Make your sentence an open end and it will make friends online very happy and relaxed. So full stops could be unnecessary in most cases.(让你的句子成为一个开放式的结尾,这会让网上的朋友们非常开心和放松。所以在大多数情况下,句号可能是不必要的)”可推知,Dr Lauren Fonteyn对用full stops来结束句子持否定或消极态度。故选C项。

四、还原信息(共4小题:每小题1.5分,满分6分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Integrity(正直诚实) will be the most important to people who are hoping to be truly successful in their personal or business lives. The path to doing this will include not only willpower(意志力)37.
Integrity means a good quality of being honest and strong about what you believe to be right.However,carrying out the rule in public is easy.38. People will sometimes seem to do amazing thing.but would they still do so without reward?
I recently watched a program about drug(药物) cheating(作弊) in sport They carried out a study where they said to Olympic athletes if we could give you a drug that could make you win but wasn't easy to be found,would you take it? Most said yes,even with the warning that you would die five years later. So their training integrity was beaten by the need to be seen as the best whatever the cost.
So if you work in an office. do you work just as hard when alone? Or if on a diet do you eat some chocolate when no one is around? But does it matter if only you know? Well yes,that's Integrity! 39. .What's going on here is that you can achieve your dream easily if you are willing to cut comers(偷工减料)、but if this does harm to yourself and others,your human side will hopefully call to you to do the right thing.40. After all,money,fame and power are attractive.
The key to developing integrity is to take a step back in a certain situation to make sure you feel you are doing the right thing,not cheating yourself or others.
A.but the real test is doing so when alone.
B. but confidence in your ability
C.but doing it tor the right thing.
D. But as we all know it's sometimes harder said than done.
E.Integrity for a person is doing the right thing, even when no one is looking.
F.Success will come and go, but integrity is forever.
【答案】 B A E D
