细节理解题。根据第二段中的“More than 515 million guests have traveled to this American landmark from around the world since the park first opened to guests on July 17, 1955.”可知,加州迪士尼乐园是1955年对游客开放的,是五个主题公园中开放时间最早的,故B项正确。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The park’s design and attractions don’t make much difference from Disneyland Park in Anaheim.”可知,佛罗里达的魔幻王国的景点与加州阿纳海姆迪士尼乐园没太大区别,故B项正确。
【3题详解】
文章意图题。根据第一段中的“Top 5 List of the Best Amusement Parks in the World” has come out as follows”可知,这篇文章的目的是向读者介绍世界上最好的五个游乐园,故D项正确。
【点睛】广告布告类阅读的设题以细节理解题为主,解答这类试题可以利用快速定位法,即根据题干关键词快速在文中寻找对应的关键信息,这样既提高了准确性又节省了时间,例如本篇第1题,题干问的是哪个公园的历史最悠久,既然是最长的历史必然和开放时间有关,我们需要在文中找到各个公园的开放时间,经过对比我们发现加州迪士尼乐园是1955年对游客开放的,是五个主题公园中开放时间最早的。
B
When I was young, I read many kinds of books, including fairy tales. Most of the books described heroes who were handsome and heroines who were beautiful. So, I believed I had to be beautiful if I wanted to become a great person.
As I grew up, I began to realize outer beauty was not so important to make someone good. I remember a friend of mine, Janie, who was so beautiful that every classmate wanted to talk with her, but she was very arrogant (傲慢的).
She believed that she could do everything she wanted because she was so beautiful, but she lost friends one by one. My poor friend! But she learned a good lesson: inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. After she learned that, she changed her attitude and made friends again.
Whenever I see TV advertisements, I feel that these things make us believe beauty is very important— especially physical attractiveness. Although we say that inner beauty is more valuable, we often look for plastic surgery to make us more beautiful. There seems to be a boom (流行) in plastic surgery. It is surprising to realize the number of people who try it is increasing day by day.
We know good-looking guys usually get higher scores on job interviews. So, what is real beauty? I want to say that inner beauty is the real one because if someone has beauty in his soul, he looks like a really beautiful person.
The beauty looked at with eyes doesn’t last forever. Instead of concentrating on outer beauty, we should concentrate on inner beauty. The point is that inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. So, if we make the effort to make our minds beautiful, we’ll be happier.
4. When the author was young, she thought if he wanted to succeed, .
A. she must learn from the heroes B. she had to work hard at her lessons
C. she must have good looks D. she had to read many kinds of books.
5. Why did Janie lose friends one by one?
A. Because she looked down upon others. B. Because she wouldn’t take their advice.
C. Because she was too ashamed. D. Because she didn’t study well at her lessons.
6. The underlined phrase “plastic surgery” in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A. 化妆 B. 阅读 C. 健身 D. 整形
7. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Importance of Beauty B. Inner Beauty is the Real Beauty
C. Beauty Makes One Happier D. How to Make Oneself Beautiful
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过讲述作者生活中的故事及朋友詹尼的举例,最终提出外在的漂亮并非成功必须的,内在美才是真的美。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When I was young, I read many kinds of books, including fairy tales. Most of the books described heroes who were handsome and heroines who were beautiful. So, I believed I had to be beautiful if I wanted to become a great person. ”(当我年轻的时候,我读了很多种类的书,包括童话故事。大多数书都描写英雄是英俊的,女英雄是美丽的。所以,我相信如果我想成为一个伟大的人,我必须变得漂亮。)可知,作者小时候,通过读书了解到,书中的英雄都是长相好看的,即作者认为成功的人必须有好的长相。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“I remember a friend of mine, Janie, who was so beautiful that every classmate wanted to talk with her, but she was very arrogant (傲慢的).” (我记得我的一个朋友,詹妮,她是如此美丽,每个同学都想和她说话,但她非常傲慢。)第三段中“But she learned a good lesson: inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. After she learned that, she changed her attitude and made friends again.”(但她学到了一个很好的教训: 内在美比外在美更重要。在她学会了这一点之后,她改变了态度,重新交到了朋友。)可知,詹尼对待想和她说话的同学很傲慢,这导致之后她的朋友一个接一个的离她而去。故选A。
6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Although we say that inner beauty is more valuable, we often look for plastic surgery to make us more beautiful. ”(虽然我们说内在美更有价值,但我们经常寻求plastic surgery,使我们更美丽。)可知,人们知道内在美的价值,但常常大家为了外在的美,而寻求plastic surgery,即通过plastic surgery让自己变得更美,可推知划线词此处指“整形”,故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读文章,文章的前三段通过作者生活中的故事,尤其是第三段提到朋友詹尼的举例,詹尼自认自己长得漂亮,对待朋友傲慢失去朋友。之后她意识到内在美才是美,身边朋友的失而复得,内在美才是重要的。充分表明内在美才是真的美。所以文章的标题可以为“内在美才是真的美”。故选B。
C
Have you ever wondered what wild animals do when no one is watching?
Low cost, dependable and small modern cameras offered a big help. Cameras placed in hard-to-reach places have shot everything from small desert cats to larger snow-lowing cats in the northern Rocky Mountains. Scientists have been able to document the “private” moments of wildlife with leading technology.
Grant Harris is a government biologist with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In his words, “there’s no doubt that these wild cameras are important tools to learn new information on wildlife.” Harris said some images help scientists see the influences of climate (气候) change.
Researchers with the Wyoming Migration Initiative, or WMI, are among those using wild cameras along with global positioning systems, or GPS. But WMI director Matthew Kauffman says as those devices (设备) are limited (有限的), so is the amount of information they can gather. However, cameras can be left in very wild areas for days, weeks or even months. They can provide information on how many animals are moving over a given period of time.
Putting those cameras in place requires careful planning. Wild video can show details about animal behavior. However, wild cameras have their problems too. Animals such as wolverines and bears sometimes attack (袭击) them. Scientists do not know if the attacks are the result of anger or interest. Also, the devices have become popular tools to help hunters look for animals. Some people argue that it is unfair to use the cameras that way.
Even with such problems, wild cameras are clearly an important scientific tool in researching wild animals.
8. What does the underlined word “document” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Remind. B. Enrich. C. Produce. D. Record.
9. Which is a disadvantage of wild cameras?
A. They cannot be left in the wild over a long period.
B. They cannot be placed in hard-to-reach areas.
C. They provide limited information.
D. They might be stolen by people.
10. Why do some people argue against using wild cameras?
A. It is difficult to fix the cameras.
B. It helps hunters find animals easily.
C. It is hard to achieve careful planning.
D. It makes animals interested in the cameras.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards wild cameras?
A. Doubtful. B. Supporting. C. Uncertain. D. Uninterested.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新型的野外摄像机,它是研究野生动物的重要科学工具,并介绍了它的使用所带来的问题。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。划线词所在句意为:科学家们已经能够用领先的技术_____野生动物的“私人”时刻。根据上文“Cameras placed in hard-to-reach places have shot everything from small desert cats to larger snow-lowing cats in the northern Rocky Mountains.”可知,这种新型的摄像机拍摄到很多动物,从沙漠中的小型猫科动物到落基山脉北部的大型雪地猫科动物。由此可推断出,科学家们是利用这种新型摄像机记录了野生动物的生活,“Record”意为“记录”,符合句意。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段关键句“But WMI director Matthew Kauffman says as those devices (设备) are limited (有限的), so is the amount of information they can gather.”可知,WMI的主管Matthew Kauffman说,由于这些设备是有限的,所以它们可以收集的信息量也是有限的。由此可知,野外摄像机的缺点是它能够提供的信息是有限的。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段关键句“Also, the devices have become popular tools to help hunters look for animals. Some people argue that it is unfair to use the cameras that way.”可知,野外摄像机已经成为帮助猎人寻找动物的流行工具。有些人认为那样使用摄像机是不公平的。由此可知,有些人反对使用野外摄像机是因为它帮助猎人很容易地找到动物。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“Even with such problems, wild cameras are clearly an important scientific tool in researching wild animals.”可知,作者认为即使野外摄像机存在着一些问题,但它显然是研究野生动物的重要科学工具。由此可推断出,作者对野外摄像机的态度是支持的,“Supporting”意为“支持的”。故选B项。
D
Chinese people love food made of flour, whether it be dumplings, or flatbread. In the hands of sill artisans (手艺人), flour is made into lovely models of people or animals to be enjoyed and played with, which brings a unique kind of pleasure. This art form is called dough figurine (面塑). Among the various at styles of dough figurines, Beijing’s Dough Figurine Lang is a unique folk art, which is filled with the rich history and customs of the capital city. Their delicate and lovely handicrafts are storytellers of old and new Beijing. In 2008, it was included in the list of national intangible cultural heritage.
It was created by Lang Shao’an. Most of the dough figurines are animals and characters from legends, historical stories, and local operas. The finished product is either put at the end of a thin stick, or on a table for display. Some are mostly for children to eat or play with, with simple forms and vivid decorations, while some are delicate pieces of artwork for display only. For this reason, during the making process they are often mixed with additives (添加剂) to prevent them from breaking up, being eaten by insects or growing moldy. Over the course of his long career, Lang Shao’an developed a set of sill fingers with an elegant artistic sense.
Lang Jiaziyu, born in 1995, is the third-generation inheritor of Dough Figurine Lang. When he was 15, he created Beijing Olympic Mascot shaped dough figurines which were highly praised. He looks a bit more fashionable than other folk artisans. In his skilled hands, pop culture icons such as figures based on Marvel comics characters and Chinese mythological figure Nezha with smoky makeup, are resonating with young people.
Like most of the other intangible cultural heritage handicrafts in China, Dough Figurine Lang does not get as much attention from the public. Few young people are willing to take the time to master a skill that does not make money, which has led to a decline in the number of those who are devoted to the handicraft. Good handicrafts need the devotion of artisans from one generation to another.
12. What is special about Dough Figurine Lang?
A. It reflects Beijing’s culture.
B. It is created by many famous artists.
C. It shows people’s lifestyles and beliefs.
D. It is popular with both tourists and the locals.
13. Why do artisans add additives to dough figurines?
A. To make dough figurines taste good.
B. To keep colors brighter and last longer.
C. To help shape dough into various forms.
D. To better preserve the finished products.
14. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. Suggestions for other folk artisans.
B. Different art styles of dough figurines.
C. Lang Jiaziyu’s achievements as an artisan.
D. The popularity of modern dough figurines.
15 What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To call on people to master a skill.
B. To appeal to people to value this folk art.
C. To teach people ways to appreciate the handicraft.
D. To persuade people to protect national cultural heritage.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中国传统民间艺术之一的面人郎的独特魅力和制作技艺,呼吁人们重视这项传统手工艺。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Among the various at styles of dough figurines, Beijing’s Dough Figurine Lang is a unique folk art, which is filled with the rich history and customs of the capital city. (在众多的面人风格中,北京面人郎是一种独特的民间艺术,它展现了首都丰富的历史和习俗)”可知,北京面人郎这项民间艺术反映了历史悠久的北京文化,故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“during the making process they are often mixed with additives (添加剂) to prevent them from breaking up, being eaten by insects or growing moldy. (在制作过程中它们常常与添加剂混合(添加剂),以防止它们破碎,被虫子吃掉或发霉的增长)”可知,制作面人时加入添加剂,是为了更好地保存它们。故选D项。
【14题详解】
段落大意题。根据第三段的“Lang Jiaziyu, born in 1995, is the third-generation inheritor of Dough Figurine Lang. When he was 15, he created Beijing Olympic Mascot shaped dough figurines which were highly praised. (郎佳子彧,1995年生,面人郎的第三代传人。15岁时,他创作了北京奥运会吉祥物面塑,深受好评)”以及下文内容可知,第三段主要描述Lang Jiaziyu取得的艺术成就,故选C项。
【15题详解】
目的意图题。根据最后一段“Few young people are willing to take the time to master a skill that does not make money, which has led to a decline in the number of those who are devoted to the handicraft. Good handicrafts need the devotion of artisans from one generation to another. (很少有年轻人愿意花时间去掌握一项不赚钱的技能,这导致了从事这门手艺的人数下降。好的手工艺品需要一代又一代工匠的奉献)”可知,全文通过介绍面塑的制作和引人担忧的发展现状,呼吁广大读者重视面塑这项传统民间艺术,故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。气候变化对生态产生了巨大影响,全世界人民应对气候变化高度重视。
【41题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:毫无疑问,地球正变得越来越暖。根据空后的“warmer and warmer”可知,这里讲述的是现阶段正在进行的动作,所以应用现在进行时。主语为Earth,表示单数,所以谓语应用单数形式。故填is getting。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这个令人惊慌的案例表明,温度的升高是如何对地球生态产生影响的。空处修饰后面指物的名词case,应用修饰物的-ing形式的形容词。alarming意为“令人担忧的,令人惊恐的”,符合题意。故填alarming。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意参考上题。have an effect on/upon...意为“对……产生影响”,为固定短语。故填on/upon。
【44题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:气候科学家经常提到一个被称为“温室效应”的关键气候过程,它有两个普遍的含义。分析句子结构,空处作后置定语,修饰a key climate process,且call和a key climate process之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以应用过去分词。故填called。
【45题详解】
考查非限制性定语从句。句意参考上题。空处引导的是非限制性定语从句,指代先行词the “greenhouse effect”,且关系词在从句中作主语,所以应用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【46题详解】
考查主谓一致、时态和语态。句意:然而,“人造”温室效应现在已经成为一个大问题,因为更多的热量被困在大气中,导致地球表面温度迅速上升。在because引导的原因状语从句中,空处充当谓语。且主语more heat energy和trap之间是动宾关系,应用被动语态。根据句意,这里陈述的是客观事实,所以应用一般现在时。主语不可数,谓语应用单数形式。故填is trapped。
【47题详解】
考查形容词。句意:有强有力的证据表明,气温上升导致了全球极端天气和自然灾害的增加,不仅造成了严重的破坏,还导致了人类失去生命。空处应用形容词作定语修饰disasters。形容词natural“自然的”符合题意。故填natural。
【48题详解】
考查副词。句意:气候科学家警告说,如果我们不采取适当行动,这种变暖趋势可能会继续下去,并且人们将付出更高的代价。这里应用副词作状语修饰动词continue。副词probably“可能”符合题意。故填probably。
【49题详解】
考查比较级。句意参考上题。根据句中的“this warming trend will ____8____(probable) continue”可知,继续下去的后果会更加严重,所以这里表示“会付出更高的代价”,应用形容词比较级作定语修饰名词price。high的比较级是higher。故填higher。
【50题详解】
考查名词。句意:我们有责任抓住每一个机会去教育每个人了解全球变暖及其原因和影响。根据空前的our,这里应用名词。responsibility“责任”符合题意,不可数。故填responsibility。

Thank you for your letter, what really made me happy. I’m glad to know that you’ve come China to learn kung fu in a school in my hometown. I’m surely you’ll have a good time. Actually, I start to learn kung fu when I was seven years old, for I have long been out of practice. Luckily, I will go home in two weeks for summer vacations. Then I can spare some time to learn it again, such that we can practice together on every day. Best of luck with yours learning kung fu in China. See you sooner.
【答案】1.what→which
2.come后加to
3.surely→sure
4.start→started
5.for→but / yet
6.vacations→vacation
7.such→so
8.去掉on
9.yours→your / you
10.sooner→soon
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章作者给他的朋友回信。很高兴听说他的朋友在学功夫,也很期待能和他一起学习中国功夫。
【详解】1.考查非限制性定语从句。句意:谢谢你的来信,你的信真正让我开心。分析句子,逗号后的从句为非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词your letter,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故将what改为which.
2. 考查固定搭配。句意:我很高兴知道你来中国在我家乡的一所学校学习功夫。分析句子,此处come为不及物动词,后接宾语是需加相应介词。come to 译为“来到”是固定短语。故在come 和China之间加to。
3. 考查形容词。句意:我相信你会玩得很开心的。分析句子,此处be动词am后面需用形容词作表语。故将surely改为sure。
4.考查时态。句意:事实上,我七岁时就开始学功夫了。分析句子,此处动词start讲述的是7岁的时候,动词应该用过去时。故将start改为started。
5.考查连词。句意:但我早就不练习了。分析句子,此处前句提到“我7岁开始学功夫”,后句提到“很久没有练习了”。此处前后应是转折关系。故将for改为but / yet。
6.考查不可数名词。句意:幸运的是,两周后我就要回家过暑假。分析句子,vacation译为“假期”是个不可数名词,后面不可加s表示复数。Summer vacation 译为“暑期”是固定搭配。故将vacations改为vacation。
7.考查副词。句意:然后我就可以抽出时间重新学习它,这样我们就可以每天一起练习。分析句子,此处应表示“以便;所以”。故将such改为so.
8.考查介词。句意:我们就可以每天一起练习。介词on后接的是具体时间。every day 译为“每一天”,前不能用有任何介词修饰。故on多余,应去掉。
9.考查代词。句意:祝你在中国学习功夫好运。分析句子,best luck of you 译为“祝你好运”是固定短语。故将your改为you。/句中的yours为名词性物主代词,不可修饰后面的动名词。故将yours改为your。
10.考查固定短语。句意:希望尽快见到你。See you soon 译为“希望尽快见到你”,是固定短语。此处不需用比较级。故将sooner改为soon。
