2014年高考英语重庆卷-答案

2014年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(重庆卷)英语答案解析一、单项填空1.【答案】C【解析】本题的是代词辨析。

anything任何事情;something某些事情,重要人物;nothing什么也没有,没有事情;everything所有的事情。

句意:微笑不要我们花任何东西,但是却会给我们很多。

本题中的关键词是but说明上下文之间是转折关系,所选之词要和后面的much表示相反的意思。

故C正确。

【考点】代词辨析。

2.【答案】B【解析】本题的是交际用语。

A没关系(用来回答对方的道歉);B我很高兴要做某事…(后面常常和but 连用,表示委婉地拒绝);C遇见你很高兴;D我找不到任何理由。

句意:—为什么不在这里多待一会?—我想多待一会,可是我真的必须得走了。

本句的关键词是but,说明本句表示的是委婉地拒绝对方。

同时在to 后面省略了stay here a little longer。

故B正确。

【考点】交际用语。

3.【答案】C【解析】本题的是情态动词意义辨析。

Can’t不可能;做不到;dare not不敢;needn’t 不必;may not也许不;句意:我已经点了一些披萨,所以当我们很累地到家的使用,不必担心做饭的问题。

Need既可以作为情态动词,也可以作为行为动词。

当它作为情态动词的使用常常用于疑问句和否定句中,表示“不必”。

根据句意说明C正确。

【考点】情态动词。

4.【答案】A【解析】本题的是时态题中的一个常考的用法。

在时间状语从句和条件状语从句中,常常使用一般现在时代替将来时。

本句中的连词before引导的就是一个时间状语从句,所以使用一般现在时代替将来时。

句意:在你忘记之前最好把他的电话号码写下来。

故A正确。

【考点】时态。

5.【答案】B【解析】本题的是非谓语动词中分词做定语的用法。

本句中的动词return与前面的名词cameras构成逻辑上的被动关系,所以使用过去分词短语在句中做定语来修饰cameras,从语法作用上来说相当于一个定语从句which are returned…。

hid somewhere.She even labeled (贴标签)everything.I always looked for everything.Over time,Kate got nearer and I got messier.She would push my dirty clothing over,and I would lay my books on her tidy desk.We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening.Kate came into the room.Soon,I heard her screaming,"Take your shoes away!Why under my bed!"Deafened,I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started yelling.She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger.We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call.Kate answered it.From her end of the conversation,I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill.When she hung up,she quickly crawled (爬)under her covers,sobbing.Obviously,that was something she should not go through phone.All of a sudden,a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart,Slowly,I collected the pencils,took back the books,made my bed,cleaned the socks and swept the floor,even on her side.I got so into my work that I even didn't noticed Kate had sat up.She was watching,her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief.Then,she reached out her hands to grasp mine.I looked up into her eyes.She smiled at me."Thanks."Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year.We didn't always agree,but we learned the key to living together:giving in.cleaning up and holding on.36.What made Kate angry one evening?A.She couldn't find her books.B.She heard the author shouting loud.C,She got the news that her grandma was ill.D.She saw the author's shoes beneath her bed.37.The author tidied up the room

OrganizedD.Learning to Be Roommates.40.(8分)There have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise.Some people believe that they can't help putting an weight as they get older,while others hold that if they stop exercising,their muscles will turn into fat.Here are some more mythsI'll never lose weight﹣﹣I come from a fat familyWrong!While we can't change the body type we are born with,we can't blame our genes for making us fat.There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families,and the main reason is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong!Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢).In fact,although fat peopleconsume more energy than slim people,they also fail to realize how much they eat]Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake mom accurately.Exercise is boringWrong!Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively.The key is to develop a balanced andvaried program that's fun as well as progressive.If you enjoy a Sunday walk,take a different mute.If you do yoga,try a tai chi class.If you like swiping,set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain,no gainWrong!Exercise is not meant to hurt.Indeed,pain is you body telling you something's wrong,and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury.You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly,but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly.If they don't,rest and seek medical advice.40.What does the author think about being fat?A.It is the family genes that make people fat.B.People are fat because they consume too little energy.C.A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D.It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle.41.According to the author,how can we make exercise mom interesting?A.By taking varied exercise.B.By choosing simple exercise.C.By doing regular exercise.D.By sticking to outdoor exercise.42.What is the author's opinion about"No pain,no gain"in exercising?A.Keeping lit is essentially a painful experience.B.Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C.Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D.Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.43.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To declare the importance of keeping lit.B.To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.C.To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.D.To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.44.(8分)The idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly.Sadly,biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid﹣﹣we simply weigh too much,and all our mm pushes down through our relatively small feet,resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However,several types of animals can walk on water.One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus,a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America.It can run across water for a distance of several meters,avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water's surface with its feet.The lizard will take as many as 20steps per second to keep moving forward.For humans to do this,we'd need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to createadequate"hitting."But fortunately there is an alternative:cornflour.By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot),you can create a"non﹣Newtonian"liquid that doesn't behave like normal water.Now,if the surface of the water is hit hard enough,particles(微粒)in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard.Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step,and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound,it's still rather messy md better mad about in theory than carried out in practice,if you must do it,then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink﹣﹣and take a shower afterward!44.Walking on water hasn't become a reality mainly because humansA.are not interested in itB.have biological limitationsC.have not invented proper toolsD.are afraid to make an attempt45.What do we know about Basiilius basilicus from the passage?A.It is light enough to walk on water.B.Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C.It can run across water at a certain speed.D.Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in watch46,What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A.To create a thick liquid.B.To turn the water into solid.C.To help the liquid behave normally.D.To enable the water to rove rapidly.47.What is the author's attitude toward the idea of humans'walking on water?A,It is risky but beneficial.Il.It is interesting and worth trying.C.It is crazy md cannot become a reality.D.It is impractical thigh theoretically possible.48.(8分)One moment it was quiet and calm in the forest,the next,the air was charged with tension.The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed.I urged the elephant deeper into the forest.We sounded like a forest fire﹣crackling,snapping,trailblazing.But through all the noise came a sharp wanting cry.The elephant stopped and we heard it again﹣the tell﹣tale call of a spotted deer.I looked quickly mound the shadows of the forest.Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches,beneath which the patchwork (交错)of green plants and shadow ﹣within﹣shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹)look more attractive.Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant's stomach,the forest wins silent.Gradually,the tension slipped from our bodies.The elephant seized a nearby branchand put it into her mouth.I roached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant's neck;there was a soft part,free of wrinkles and hairs,behind her ear.This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett,although I saw no tigers in the end.Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains,Corbett is home to about 135Bengal tigers,but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts (出没处),a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity.Still,I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear.If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger,I could have gone to a zoo.After all,spotting tigers mealy confirms their beauty;backing them can make you aware of something more.48.Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?A.The elephant stopped.B.A spotted deer called.C.The elephant seized a branch.D.The forest was silent for a while.49.The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by A.describing various soundsB.comparing different animalsC.listing different activitiesD.introducing various plants50.What does the underlined part"to sense the aura"most probably mean?A.To see the diversity.B.To enjoy the scenery.C.To feel the atmosphere.D.To experience the freedom.51.How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?A.Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.B.It is very time﹣consuming to travel in Corbett.C.It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.D.The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.52.(8分)It's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes.They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment.They pay $5for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情),but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are,as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern.By observing our own behavior.We can be strangers to ourselves.If we knew our own minds,why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior?If our minds were an open book,we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes.Actually,we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.Moreover,we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character﹣we infer characters that weren't there before.Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us,which we fail to recognize.Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't.Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us.We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make,people become what they do,though it may not be in compliance (符合)with their true desires.Therefore,we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice:"We are what we pretend to be,so we must be careful about what we pretend to be." 52.According to the passage,personalities and attitudes are commonly believed to A.determine one's behaviorB.reflect one's tasteC.influence one's surroundingsD.result from one's habits53.Which of the following would Daryl Bern most probably agree with?A.The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty.B.A kind person will offer his seat to the old.C.One recycles plastics to protect the environment.D,One buys latte out of true love of coffee.54.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?A.We fall to realize our inner dispositions.B.We can be influenced by outside pressures.C.Our behavior is the result of our true desires.D.Our characters can shape our social relationships.55,What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?A.Personalities and attitudes.B,Preferences and habits.C,Behavior and personalities.D.Attitudes and preferences.四、写作一(满分15)56.(15分)请结合材料,按要求用英文写作."My friend falls,I laugh;my phone falls,I

darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point,there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons﹣a number equal to 24to 40percent of the total bird population in the United States,making it perhaps the most abundant bird in theworld.Even as late as 1870when their numbers had already become smaller,a flock believed to be 1mile wide and 320miles (about 515kilometers)long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly,the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing.Where the birds were most abundant,people believed there was an ever﹣lasting supply and killed them by the thousands.Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain,waited until pigeons had settled to feed,then threw large nets over them,taking hundreds at a time.The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century,the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans'need for wood,which scattered (驱散)the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north,where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline.Soon the great flocks were gone,never to be seen again.In 1897,the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons,but by then,no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10years.The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County,Ohio,in 1900.For a time,a few birds survived under human care.The last of them,known affectionately as Martha,died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1,1914.24.In the 18th and early 19th centuries,passenger pigeons.A.were the biggest bird in the worldB.lived mainly in the south of AmericaC.did great harm to the natural environmentD.were the largest bird population in the US25.The underlined word"undoing"probably refers to the pigeons'.A.escape B.ruin C.liberation D.evolution 26.What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A.To seek pleasure B.To save other birdsC.To make money D.To protect crops.27.What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A.It was ignored by the public B.It was declared too late.C.It was unfair D.It was strict.28.(12分)A typical lion tamer (驯兽师)in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭)and a chair.The whip gets all of the attention,but it's mostly for show.In reality,it's the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided,the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options,the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion?How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose weight,start a business,travel more)﹣﹣﹣﹣only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best,the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things,and so we take less action,make less progress,and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn't have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face,remember this:All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go,something you want to accomplish,someone you want to become …take immediate action.If you're clear about where you want to go,the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.28.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A.To show off his skills.B.To trick the lion.C.To get ready for a fight.D.To entertain the audience.29.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A.They feel puzzled over choices.B.They hold on to the wrong things.C.They find it hard to make changed.D.They have to do something for show.30.What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3?A.Tolerant B.Doubtful C.Respectful D.Supportive.31.When the world is"waving a chair in your face",you're advised to.A.wait for a better chanceB.break your old habitsC.make a quick decisionD.ask for clear guidance.32.(12分)As more and more people speak the global languages of English,Chinese,Spanish,and Arabic,other languages are rapidly disappearing.In fact,half of the 6,000﹣7,000languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century,according to the United Nations Educational,Scientific,and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss,scholars from a number of organizations﹣﹣﹣﹣UNESCO and National Geographic among them﹣﹣﹣﹣have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin,a scientist at the Macmillan Center,Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas,is following in that tradition.His recently published book,A grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living,working,andraising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin,who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India,Nepal,Bhutan,and China.But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials﹣﹣﹣﹣including photographs,films,tape recordings,and field notes﹣﹣﹣﹣which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now,through the two organizations that he has founded﹣﹣﹣﹣the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project﹣﹣﹣﹣Turin has started a campaign to make such documents,found in libraries and stores around the world,available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet,Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.32.Many scholars are making efforts to.A.promote global languageB.rescue disappearing languagesC.search for language communitiesD.set up language research organizations33.What does"that tradition"in Paragraph 3refer to?A.Having full records of the languages.B.Writing books on language teaching.C.Telling stories about language users.D.Living with the native speakers.34.What is Turin's book based on?A.The cultural studies in India.B.The documents available at Yale.C.His language research in Bhutan.D.His personal experience in Nepal.35.Which of the following best describes Turin's work?A.Write,sell and donate.B.Record,repair and reward.C.Design,experiment and report.D.Collect,protect and reconnect.第二节(共1小题;每小题15分,满分15分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.36.(15分)The jobs of the future have not yet been invented.(36)By helping them develop classic skills that will serve them well no matter what the future holds.1.CuriosityYour children need to be deeply curious.(37)Ask kids,"What ingredients (配料)can we add to make these pancakes even better next time?"and then try them out.Did those ingredients make the pancakes better?What could we try next time?2.CreativityTrue creativity is the ability to take something existing and create something new from it.(38)There are a dozen different things you can do with them.Experimenting with materials to create something new can go a long way in helping them develop their creativity.3.Personal

Expression(40)There are many ways to express thoughts and ideas﹣﹣﹣﹣music,acting,drawing,building,photography.You may find that your child is attracted by one more than another.A.Encourage kids to cook with you.B.And we can't forget science education.C.We can give kids chances to think about materials in new ways.D.We can do this in real life or ask questions about characters in stories.E.Gardening is another great activity for helping kids develop this skill.F.So how can we help our kids prepare for jobs that don't yet exist?G.Being able to communicate ideas in a meaningful way is a valuable

numbers.Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks(群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point,there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons﹣a number equal to 24to 40percent of the total bird population in the United States,making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world.Even as late as 1870when their numbers had already become smaller,a flock believed to be 1mile wide and 320miles (about 515kilometers)long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly,the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing.Where the birds were most abundant,people believed there was an ever﹣lasting supply and killed them by the thousands.Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain,waited until pigeons had settled to feed,then threw large nets over them,taking hundreds at a time.The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century,the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans'need for wood,which scattered (驱散)the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north,where coldtemperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline.Soon the great flocks were gone,never to be seen again.In 1897,the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons,but by then,no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10years.The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County,Ohio,in 1900.For a time,a few birds survived under human care.The last of them,known affectionately as Martha,died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1,1914.24.In the 18th and early 19th centuries,passenger pigeons D.A.were the biggest bird in the worldB.lived mainly in the south of AmericaC.did great harm to the natural environmentD.were the largest bird population in the US25.The underlined word"undoing"probably refers to the pigeons'B.A.escape B.ruin C.liberation D.evolution 26.What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?CA.To seek pleasure B.To save other birdsC.To make money D.To protect crops.27.What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?BA.It was ignored by the public B.It was declared too late.C.It was unfair D.It was strict.【分析】文章主要讲述了旅鸽的灭绝的故事,由于人们警惕意识弱,相关法律出台太晚,最后一只旅鸽也在100年前死去.【解答】24.D.推理判断题.根据第二段的内容可知,据计算,旅鸽数量最多时,有30多亿只,相当于美国鸟类总数的24%﹣40%.到1870年,旅鸽的数量已经减少了,但是,有人在Cincinnati附近看到鸽群的规模为1英里宽,320英里长.由此可见,在18至19世纪,旅鸽的数量最多.第一段的第二句也是关键信息.故选D.25.B.词义猜测题.根据第三段的内容可知,旅鸽的数量巨大最终导致它们灭绝.undoing意为"毁灭",与ruin同义.故选B.26.C.细节理解题.根据第三段可知,商业猎人用大网来围捕旅鸽,然后运到大城市卖给餐馆,由此可见,人们捕杀旅鸽主要是为了赚钱.故选C.27.B.推理判断题.根据最后一段的内容可知,1897年密歇根州出台了法律,禁止捕杀旅鸽.那时,人们已经十年没有看到大规模的旅鸽群出没.由此可知,保护旅鸽的法律出台太晚了.故选B.28.(12分)(2014•新课标Ⅰ)A typical lion tamer (驯兽师)in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭)and a chair.The whip gets all of the attention,but it's mostly for show.In reality,it's the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided,the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options,the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion?How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose weight,start a business,travel more)﹣﹣﹣﹣only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best,the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things,and so we take less action,make less progress,and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn't have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face,remember this:All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go,something you want to accomplish,someone you want to become …take immediate action.If you're clear about where you want togo,the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.28.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?AA.To show off his skills.B.To trick the lion.C.To get ready for a fight.D.To entertain the audience.29.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?AA.They feel puzzled over choices.B.They hold on to the wrong things.C.They find it hard to make changed.D.They have to do something for show.30.What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3?BA.Tolerant B.Doubtful C.Respectful D.Supportive.31.When the world is"waving a chair in your face",you're advised to C.A.wait for a better chanceB.break your old habitsC.make a quick decisionD.ask for clear guidance.【分析】本文是一篇议论文.文章以驯兽师拿一把椅子在狮子面前,狮子感到困惑,呆立不动的例子导入,其实我们人也一样,当面对多个选择时,不知该选哪一个,又怕选错了,因此往往进展很小,甚至保持原样.文章旨在告诉我们当遇到多种选择时,要专注一件事,并下决心做下去.【解答】28.A 考查细节理解.根据第一段中"When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time"可知,当驯兽师拿着椅子在狮子面前时,狮子关注椅子的四条腿,因此椅子用是用来戏耍狮子的.故选A.。

A smile costs ____.but gives much.()A.anythingB.somethingC.nothingD.everything【答案】C【考点】代词【解析】微笑不花钱,但却给予他人很多.【解答】该句中的but一词构成前后语义矛盾,“微笑不花钱,但却给予他人很多”.nothing与much形成语义对比.故本题选择C项.cost nothing意为“无需付出”.2. –Why not stay here a little longer?–____.but I really have to go.()A.Never mindB.I’d love toC.Pleased to meet youD.I can’t find any reason【答案】B【考点】情景交际【解析】–你为什么不能在这儿多呆一会儿呢?–我也想,但是我不得不走.【解答】答案B.选项A Never mind的意思是没关系,不用担心;选项B I’d love to的意思是我也想要…选项C Pleased to meet you的意思是见到你很高兴;选项D I can’t find any reason的意思是我找不到任何理由.根据语境及句意,应该选择B.3.

We’ll reach the sales targets in a month_____we set at the beginning of the year.()A.whichB.whereC.whenD.what【答案】A【考点】关系代词限制性定语从句【解析】再有一个月就能完成年初制订的销售目标.【解答】答案A.本题通过分析句子的成分,可知从句中缺少宾语,所以应选择关系代词,which指代targets,在从句中充当set的宾语,B、C项是关系副词,排除B、C两项;D项只能引导名词性从句,故选择A项.10. ﹣﹣I spent two weeks in London last summer.﹣﹣Then you must have visited the British Museum during your stay,____ you?()A.mustn’t B.haven’t C.didn’t D.hadn’t【答案】C【考点】句子基础知识【解析】﹣﹣去年夏天我在伦敦两个星期.﹣﹣逗留伦敦期间你肯定去看过大英博物馆.【解答】答案C.从形式上看,本句中就有情态动词 must,又含助动词 have,但是在意思上,must have 整体表示对过去发生行为的推断,反意疑问句需要证实“是否曾经有过这样的情况”,因此简略疑问句应该用didn’t来追问.故选C.11. Group activities will be organized after class _______ children develop team spirit.()A.helpingB.having helpedC.helpedD.to help【答案】D【考点】副词基础【解析】句意:将组织各种团体活动以帮助儿童培养团队精神.【解答】答案D.根据句意,组织各种团体活动的“目的是”帮助儿童培养团队精神.用to do做目的状语,故选D.12. –Is it true that Mike refused an offer from Yale University yesterday?–Yeah,but I have no idea ____ he did it;that’s one of his favorite universities.()A.whenB.whyC.thatD.how【答案】B【考点】同位语从句【解析】-Mike拒绝了耶鲁大学的录取,这是真的吗?-是的,我不知道他为什么要这样做.耶鲁大学是他最喜欢的大学之一.【解答】答案B.本题实际上是一个同位语从句,是对名词idea的内容进行的说明.短语have no idea后面可以使用多种形式的同位语结构,如have no idea where to go等.根据句意可知使用why表示原因.故B正确.13. It was John who broke the window.Why are you talking to me as if I____it?()A.had doneB.have doneC.didD.am doing【答案】A【考点】虚拟语气【解析】是John打破了窗户,为什么你跟我讲话时好像是我打破了一样?【解答】答案:A.根据题干中此句It was John who broke the window.可知John打破窗户发生在过去.当对过去情况假设时,as if引导的虚拟句中的谓语动词形式应为had done.故选A.14. Half an hour later,Lucy still couldn’t get a taxi __ the bus had dropped her.()A.untilB.whenC.althoughD.where【答案】D【考点】状语从句宾语从句【解析】过了半个小时,Lucy在她下公共汽车的地方仍然打不到的士.【解答】答案D此句是复合句,从句缺少连接副词.从题意看,意思是“她不能在汽车放下她的地方打到的士”.此处需引导一个地点状语从句,故用连接副词where.故选D.15. –Jack,I’d like to have your

her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere.She even labeled (贴标签)everything.I always looked for everything.Over time, Kate got nearer and I got messier.She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk.We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening.Kate came into the room.Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away!Why under my bed!”Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started yelling.She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger.We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call.Kate answered it.From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill.When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through phone.All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart,Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and

about being fat and do ing exercise.Some people believe that they can’t help putting an weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat.Here are some more mythsI’ll never lose weight–I come from a fat familyWrong!While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat.There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main rea son is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong!Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢).In fact, although fat peopleconsume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat]Keepin g a diary can help you work out your daily food intake mom accurately.Exercise is boringWrong!Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively.The key is to develop a balan ced andvaried program that’s fun as well as progressive.If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a differe nt mute.If you do yoga, try a tai chi class.If you like swiping, set yourself a distance or time challe nge.No pain, no gainWrong!Exercise is not meant to hurt.Indeed, pain is you body telling you something’s wr ong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury.You may experience mild disco mfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive change s in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly.If they don’t, rest and s eek medical advice.(1)What does the author think about being fat?________A.It is the family genes that make people fat.B.People are fat because they consume too little energy.C.A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D.It is the consequence of people’s unbalanced lifestyle.(2)According to the author,how can we make exercise mom interesting?________A.By taking varied exercise.B.By choosing simple exercise.C.By doing regular exercise.D.By sticking to outdoor

eating too much and exercise too lit tle”可知:人们肥胖的主要原因是生活方式的不平衡,表现为吃得太多而运动太少.故答案选D.(2)A 细节理解题.从第四段“The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive.”可知:多样化的运动可使运动变得有趣.故答案选A.(3)B 推理判断题.根据文章最后一段的“pain is your body telling you something is wrong,and continuing to exercise could lead to serious

exercise.”可知:作者写作本文是为了澄清人们关于肥胖和运动的认识误区.故答案选B.The idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly.Sadly,biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid–we simply weigh too much,and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet,resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However,several types of animals can walk on water.One of the most interesting is the common basi lisk Basilicus basilicus,a lizard (蜥蜴) native to Central and South America.It can run across water for a distance of several meters,avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet.The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward.For humans to do this,we’d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate “hitting.But fortunately there is an alternative:cornflour.By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot),you can create a“non-Newtonian“liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water.Now,if the surface of the water is hit hard enough,particles(微粒) in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard.Move quickly en ough and put enough force into each step,and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound,it’s still rather messy md better mad about in theory than carried out in practice,if you must do it,then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink—and take a shower afterward!(1)Walking on water hasn’t become a reality mainly because humans________A.are not interested in itB.have biological limitationsC.have not invented proper toolsD.are afraid to make an attempt(2)What do we know about Basiilius basilicus from the passage?________A.It is light enough to walk on water.B.Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C.It can run across water at a certain speed.D.Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in watch.(3)What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?________A.To create a thick liquid.B.To turn the water into solid.C.To help the liquid behave normally.D.To enable the water to rove rapidly.(4)What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of humans’walking on water?________ A. It is risky but beneficial.B.It is interesting and worth trying.C.It is crazy md cannot become a reality.D.It is impractical thigh theoretically possible.【答案】B,C,A,D【考点】说明文阅读观点态度细节理解科教类阅读【解析】本文是说明文.主要讲述人类有一个一直感兴趣但一直未能实现的愿望:水上行走.不能实现的原因是“生物性局限”.本文主要介绍了一种理论上可行实际上难以实现的人类水上行走的方法:借助玉米粉(corn flour)增加水面浓度.【解答】(1)B 细节理解题.从第一段“Sadly,biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid …”可知,人类至今不能在水面行走是“生物”原因.故选择B.(2)C 细节理解题.从第二段“It can run across water for a distance of several meters,avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet.”可知,这种蜥蜴能在水面行走是因为速度快(每秒钟达到20步).故选择 C.(3)A 细节理解题.第三段“this common thickening agent”明确这是一种“常见的增稠剂”.故选择A.(4)D 观点态度题.从第二段“it does take a lot”及最后一段“it’s still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice.”等句推断,借助增稠剂实现人类在水面行走,理论上可行但真正实现很难做到.故选择D项.One moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tensio n.The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly chang ed.I urged the elephant deeper into the forest.We sounded like a forest fire-crackling, snapping, trailblazing.But through all the noise came a sharp wanting cry.The e lephant stopped and we heard it again-the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.I looked quickly mound the shadows of the forest.Rays of sunlight shone through tree br anches, beneath which the patchwork (交错) of green plants and shadow-within-shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹) look more attractive.Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant’s stomach, the forest wins silent.Gradually, the tension slipped from our bodies.The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth.I roached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant’s ne ck; there was a soft part, free of wrinkles and hairs, behind her ear.This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett, although I saw no tigers in the end.Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains, Corbett is home to about 135B engal tigers, but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts(出没处), a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity.Still, I was happy enough touching the el ephant behind the ear.If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger, I could have gone to a z oo.After all, spotting tigers mealy confirms their beauty; backing them can make you aware of something more.(1)Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?________A.The elephant stopped.B.A spotted deer called.C.The elephant seized a branch.D.The forest was silent for a while.(2)The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by________A.describing various sounds.paring different animals.C.listing different activities.D.introducing various plants.(3)What does the underlined part“to sense the aura“most probably mean?________A.To see the diversity.B.To enjoy the scenery.C.To feel the atmosphere.D.To experience the freedom.(4)How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?________A.Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.B.It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.C.It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.D.The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.【答案】BACD【考点】人文地理类阅读【解析】本文是记述文,题材为人文地理类.为了看到孟加拉虎,“我”第四次来到了喜马拉雅山下的 Corbett 森林中.这一次“我”摸着身边的大象,听到了森林中的各种声音.这次经历让“我”明白了看到孟加拉虎也许不如追踪它们更有意义.【解答】(1)B.细节理解题.根据第一段的描述:came a sharp warning cry 和 the tell-tale call of a spotted deer 可知一头带斑点的鹿的叫声发出了清晰的警告的信号,(2)答案:A.推理判断题.根据第一段中的 heard the distant alarm calls of animals 和 We sounded like a forest fire 以及 all the noise came a sharp warning cry 和第二段中的 an occasional noise from the elephant’s stomach 推断出作者是通过对各种声音的描述描写自己这次森林之行的.(3)答案:C.词义猜测题.由上文对森林紧张气氛的描写可知这里指的是“我”第四次来感受 Corbett 森林的气氛了.(4)答案:D.推理判断题.根据文章最后一段的描述:tracking them can make you aware of something more 可以推断出作者通过这四次的经历终于明白了:看到孟加拉虎是为了确认它们的美,但是追踪老虎的过程却是更吸引人的,意义也更大.It’s generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and atti tudes.They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment.They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.It’s undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情),but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are,as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern.By observing our own behavior.We can be strangers to ourselves.If we knew our own minds,why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior?If our minds were an open book,we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes.Actually,we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.Moreover,we don’t just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character-we infer characters that weren’t there before.Our behavior is often shaped by little pressur es around us,which we fail to recognize. Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disa pprove if we didn’t.Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us.We sh ould not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make,people become what they do,。

Each of her objectshad its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't noticed Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, "Thanks."Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.36. What made Kate angry one evening?A. She couldn't find her books.B.

My Friend KateB. Hard Work Pays OffC. How to Be OrganizedD. Learning to Be RoommatesBThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can't help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more mythsI’ll never lose weig ht--I come from a fat familyWrong! While we can't change the body type we are born with, we can't blame our genes for making us fat. There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something's wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If they don't, rest and seek medical advice.40. What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D. It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle.41. According to the author, how can we make exercise more interesting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercise.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.42. What is the author's opinion about "No pain, no gain" in exercising?A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.43. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To declare the importance of keeping lit.B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.CThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid--we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴) native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water's surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we'd need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate "hitting. “But fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a "non-Newtonian" liquid that doesn't behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(微粒) in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, it's still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink--and takea shower afterward!44. Walking on water hasn't become a reality mainly because humans _______A. are not interested in itB. have biological limitationsC. have not invented proper toolsD. are afraid to make an attempt45. What do we know about Basiilius basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in watch46. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the water to move rapidly.47. What is the author's attitude toward the idea of humans' walking on water?A, It is risky but beneficial. B. It is interesting and worth trying.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.DOne moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tension. The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed. I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest fire---crackling, snapping, trailblazing. But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it again---the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest. Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches, beneath which the patchwork (交错) of green plants and shadow-within-shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹) look more attractive. Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant's stomach, the forest was silent.Gradually, the tension slipped from our bodies. The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth. I reached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant's neck; there was a soft part, free of wrinkles and hairs, behind her ear.This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett, although I saw no tigers in the end. Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains, Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers, but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts( 出没处), a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity. Still, I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear. If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger, I could have gone to a zoo. After all, spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty; backing them can make you aware of something more.48. Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?A. The elephant stopped.B. A spotted deer called.C. The elephant seized a branch.D. The forest was silent for a while.49. The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by__________A. describing various soundsB. comparing different animalsC. listing different activitiesD. introducing various plants50. What does the underlined part "to sense the aura" most probably mean?A. To see the diversity.B. To enjoy the scenery.C. To feel the atmosphere.D. To experience the freedom.51. How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?A. Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.B. It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.C. It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.D. The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.EIt's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes. They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment. They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情), but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern, by observing our own behavior. We can be strangers to ourselves. If we knew our own minds, why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes. Actually, we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.Moreover, we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character—we infer characters that weren't there before. Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us, which we fail to recognize. Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't. Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us. We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people become what they do, though it may not be in compliance (符合) with their true desires. Therefore, we should all bear in mind Kurt V onnegut's advice: "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”52. According to the passage, personalities and attitudes are commonly believed to __A. determine one's behaviorB. reflect one's tasteC. influence one's surroundingsD. result from one's habits53. Which of the following would Daryl Bern most probably agree with?A. The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty.B. A kind person will offer his seat to the old.C. One recycles plastics to protect the environment.D. One buys latte out of true love of coffee.54. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?A. We fall to realize our inner dispositions.B. We can be influenced by outside pressures.C. Our behavior is the result of our true desires.D. Our characters can shape our social relationships.55. What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?A. Personalities and attitudes. B, Preferences and habits.C, Behavior and personalities. D. Attitudes and preferences.四、写作(共两个写作任务,满分35分)写作一(满分15分)请结合材料,按要求用英文写作。

An announcement.D. An official report.BPassenger pigeons(旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks(群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reach its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons – a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant birds in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly, the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century, the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans’ need for wood, which scattered(驱散)the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden in September 1, 1914.24. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons .A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the US25. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons’ .A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution26. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons? A. To seek pleasureB. To save other birdsC. To make moneyD. To protect crops27. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan? A. It was ignored by the publicB. It was declared too lateC. It was unfairD. It was strictCA typical lion tamer(驯兽师)in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭)and a chair. The whip gets all of the attention, but it’s mostly for show. In reality, it’s the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve(e.g. lose weight, start a business, travel more)--- only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make lessprogress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn’t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to accomplish, someone you want to become … take immediate action. If you’re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.28. Why does the lion tamer use a chair? A. To show off his skills.B. To trick the lion.C. To get ready for a fight.D. To entertain the audience.29. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair? A. They feel puzzled over choices.B. They hold on to the wrong things.C. They find it hard to make changed.D. They have to do something for show.30. What is the author’s attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. TolerantB. DoubtfulC. RespectfulD. Supportive31. When the world is “waving a chair in your face”, you’re advised to .A. wait for a better chanceB. break your old habitsC. make a quick decisionD. ask for clear guidanceDAs more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations--- UNESCO and National Geographic among them---have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in thattradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Tangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayans reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials---including photographs, films, tap recordings, and field notes---which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now, through the two organizations that he has founded---the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project---Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the youngers.Generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet. Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.32. Many scholars are making efforts to .A. promote global languageB. rescue disappearing languagesC. search for language communitiesD. set up language research organizations33. What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Having full records of the languages.B. Writing books on language teaching.C. Telling stories about language users.D. Living with the native speakers.34. What is Turin’s book based on? A. The cultural studies in India.B. The documents available at Yale.C. His language research in Bhutan.D. His personal experience in Nepal.35. Which of the following best describes Turin’s work? A. Write, sell and donate.B. Record, repair and reward.C. Design, experiment and report.D. Collect, protect and reconnect.第二节(共5小题,每小题3分,满分15分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
