Fortunately, when he was almost starving, someone bought one of his peasant paintings, which enabled his family to leave for Barbizon.Millets pictures of peasants at work were painted in a unique way. The painte
13、r would go out on the farms and watch them carefullydigging, hoeing, spreading manure, sawing wood, or sowing grain. Then he would come home and paint what he had seen. So astonishingly accurate was his memory that he could paint at home without models and get all the movements of his figures right.
14、 When he did need a figure to go by, he would ask his wife to pose for him.One of his noted artworks is called “The Sower”, which shows a man seeding. He reaches into his bag for seed and then swings backward to scatter the seed, and with each swing of his hand the sower strides forward. In Millets
15、picture the sower has been working hard, but his swinging step and arm still move smoothly, like a machine. Only the mans head reveals his great tiredness.Another masterpiece is called “The Gleaners”. A gleaner is someone picking up the leftover in the field after the wheat harvest. When farmers nea
16、r Barbizon are extremely badly-off, even the little the gleaners can find is a help. You can see from Millets picture what back-breaking work gleaning must be.4. What do we know about Millet?A.

19、作品。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中When Millet was a boy he worked on his needy fathers farm.At the rest hour in the fields the other workers would all take naps, but young Millet would spend time drawing.可知,当小米还是个孩子的时候,他在他父亲的农场工作。在田间休息的时候,其他的工人都会打盹,但小Millet会花时间画画。由此可知,Millet从小就喜欢画画。故选B。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中The pain
20、ter would go out on the farms and watch them carefullydigging, hoeing, spreading manure, sawing wood, or sowing grain. Then he would come home and paint what he had seen.可知画家会到农场去,看他们仔细地挖土、锄地、撒肥料、锯木头或播种。然后他回到家,把他所看到的画出来。由此可知,他通过记住他所观察到的来描绘劳动的农民。故选C。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中In Millets picture the sower ha
21、s been working hard, but his swinging step and arm still move smoothly, like a machine. Only the mans head reveals his great tiredness.可知在Millet的画中,播种者一直在努力工作,但他摆动的步伐和手臂仍然流畅地移动,像一台机器。只有这个男人的头部显露出他极度的疲惫。以及最后一段中You can see from Millets picture what back-breaking work gleaning must be.可知从Millet的画中可以看出,
22、拾穗是一项多么累人的工作。由此可推知,Millet的作品传达了农民的艰辛。故选A。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段中Millet通过观察劳动的农民来进行作画,以及最后两段描述Millet作品中农民耕作时现实的形象,由此可推知,Millet的绘画风格是现实主义的。故选D。CThe London Interdisciplinary School (LIS), scheduled to open in 2021 with a target of admitting 100 students, will abandon traditional academic subjects and offe
23、r a three year bachelor of arts and sciences degree designed to deal with real-world issues. The curriculum is built around interdisciplinary problemsknife crime, childhood obesity, plastic pollution, among othersas well as quantitative and qualitative research skills.

25、 them an amazing learning experience?” says Ed Fidoe, a co-founder of the LIS. The idea is similar to a U.S. liberal arts (通识教育) degree but also more specifically focused on multiple subjects economics, psychology, sociology, statistic, etc. to solve complex problems like childhood obesity. In other
26、 words, the problem, not the subject, sits at the center of the curriculum. The skills students develop, the founders hope, will more closely come into agreement with what an Al-infused, automated world demands: collaboration(协作) between people and machines, critical thinking, speaking and writing s
27、kill, and data management, to name just a few things.The challenges of building a new university from scratch are daunting(令人生畏的): students have to sign up for, and pay for, something untested; all the teachers will have to teach in a totally new and different way; and theres a risk that an interdis
28、ciplinary curriculum will be interesting but thin. Fidoe says its a tall order. “Are any 17-year-olds going to be crazy enough to come to something that doesnt exist yet against something thats been around for 150 years?” he says.In the U.K, students apply through an admissions service center, and e
29、xam results are more important than anything else. On the contrary, at the LIS, students will instead apply directly during a pre-determined “selection day” where everyone is invited to participate. This day will include a face-to-face interview so that the college can better understand a students b
30、ackground, motivations, and passions.8. What is the aim of the LIS?A. To provide more and more project ideas for students.B. To take a real-world approach to higher education.C.

33、iences and qualities .D. It stresses the importance of is pre-determined “selection day”.【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. C【解析】【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了一所新的大学:伦敦跨学科学院(LIS)计划于2021年开学,目标是招收100名学生。该学院将放弃传统学科,提供三年的文学和科学学士学位,旨在解决现实世界的问题,同时讲述了设立该大学的困难和挑战。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段第1句内容“The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS
34、), scheduled to open in 2021 with a target of admitting 100 students, will abandon traditional academic subjects and offer a three year bachelor of arts and sciences degree designed to deal with real-world issues.( 这所伦敦跨学科学院(LIS)计划于2021年开学,目标是招收100名学生。该学院将放弃传统学科,提供三年的文学和科学学士学位,旨在解决现实世界的问题。)”可知,该大学的目
35、标是教授学生如何解决现实世界的问题。故选B项。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“The idea is similar to a U.S. liberal arts degree but also more specifically focused on multiple subjects economics, psychology, sociology , statistic, etc. to solve complex problems like childhood obesity. In other words, the problem, not the subject, si
36、ts at the center of the curriculum.( 这个想法类似于美国文科学位,但更具体地侧重于多个学科经济学、心理学、社会学、统计学等以解决诸如儿童肥胖等复杂问题。换句话说,课程的中心是问题,而不是学科。)”可知,该大学设立的课程特别之处在于以诸如儿童肥胖等之类的社会关注问题为中心,并以此为中心侧重于多个学科解决问题。故选C项。【10题详解】词义猜测题。划线句为对前文的总结。根据前文“The challenges of building a new university from scratch are daunting: students have to sign u
37、p for, and pay for, something untested; all the teachers will have to teach in a totally new and different way; and theres a risk that an interdisciplinary curriculum will be interesting but thin.( 从零开始建设一所新大学的挑战是令人生畏的:学生们必须为未经测试的东西签字并付费;所有的老师都必须以一种全新的,不同的方式教学;跨学科的课程可能会很有趣,但却很单调。)”可知讲述了建立该大学的困难之处,因此
38、推知,划线句应是在总结讲述该大学课程的难以实现和实施。选项D“Its hard to build the new university.”符合文意。故选D项。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容:On the contrary, at the LIS, students will instead apply directly during a pre-determined “selection day” where everyone is invited to participate.This day will include a face-to-face interview so
39、that the college can better understand a students background, motivations, and passions.可知,在LIS,学生们将在预先确定的“选拔日”直接申请,每个人都被邀请参加,这一天将包括一次面对面的面试,以便学院能够更好地了解学生的背景、动机和热情。因此可推知,该学校更加强调学生的个人背景和经验。C项“It emphasizes students personal experiences and qualities .( 它强调学生的个人经历和品质。)”为依据原文的合理推断。故选C项。【点睛】细节理解题 考查内容主要
40、涉及时间、地点、人物、事件、原因、结果、数字等议论文中例证细节和定义类细节。这类题目的共同特点是:答案一般都能在文章中找到。当然,答案并不一定是文章中的原句,考生需要根据文章提供的信息自己组织语句回答问题。 比如文章的第1小题:1. What is the aim of the LIS? A. To provide more and more project ideas for students. B. To take a real-world approach to higher education. C. To help employers to develop the students
41、skills. D. To conduct qualitative and quantitative research.根据题干关键词“aim”,利用寻读法可定位至文章第一段第1句内容“The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS), scheduled to open in 2021 with a target of admitting 100 students, will abandon traditional academic subjects and offer a three year bachelor of arts and sciences d
42、egree designed to deal with real-world issues.”可知,“to deal with real-world issues”应是用动词不定式结构表明该学院设立的目的,但选项中并未有原句表达,通过分析选项,与原文对比可知,选项B“To take a real-world approach to higher education.(将真实世界解决问题的方法引入高等教育)”与原文表达含义一致。故B项为答案。DInaccessible Island is well named. It is an uninhabited rock in the South Atl
43、antic ocean. Go there, though, and you will find its coast is covered with litter.That has been the experience of Peter Ryan of the University of Cape Town, in South Africa. Since 1984 Dr. Ryan has been visiting Inaccessible, recording the litter stranded on the islands beaches. This week, he has pu
44、blished the results.Though Inaccessible is indeed remote, the nature of oceanic circulation means that this is exactly the sort of place where floating rubbish tends to accumulate.Dr. Ryan and his colleagues focused on one particular class of litter: bottles. Their definition of a bottle included ja
45、rs and containers, and things made of metal, glass or polymer. Most, though, were of polyethylene terephthalate , a light plastic.A particular advantage of picking bottles to investigate is that they are often stamped with their country of manufacture. That enabled Dr. Ryan to analyze the history of
46、 oceanic littering. He analyzed the proportions of bottles from various geographical sources. In 1989 the preponderance (优势) of them (67%) was South American. Twenty years later, in 2009, bottles made in Asia contributed more or less equally (44%) with South American ones (41%). By 2018 the overwhel
47、ming (压倒性的) majority (74%) were Asian.This geographical shift speaks volumes. The first sample suggests most litter arriving on Inaccessible had been washed off the land or dropped from coastal shipping South America being a relatively nearby continent. The other two, with their rising proportions o
48、f rubbish from Asia, which is too far from the island for it to have floated there, strongly suggest it was crews empties being flung from ships. Such littering is banned which, ironically, came into force in 1989. But evidently a lot of ships captains do not care. They permit the dumping of rubbish
49、 over the side, regardless.12. What leads to litter gathering on Inaccessible Island?A. The natural phenomenon of ocean currents.B. Too many peoples activities on the island.C. The litters floating around the island.D. The islands remote location.13. Why does Dr. Ryan choose bottles as subjects?A. I
50、t is easy to analyze them.B. It is possible to figure out their sources.C. There are stamps attached to them.D. They contribute most to oceanic littering.14. What does the underlined word “flung” in the last paragraph mean?A. Cast away.B. Given away.C. Carried out.D. Put out.15. What is the best tit
51、le for the text?A. Plastic Bottles Washed up on Inaccessible IslandB. Geographical Factors Accounting for More RubbishC. Plastic Pollution Worsening on Remote AtlanticD. A Bottled up Rubbish Problem on Inaccessible Island【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15. D【解析】这是一篇说明文。Inaccessible岛的名字很好。它是南大西洋的一块无人居住的岩石。然而,去
52、那里,你会发现它的海岸到处都是垃圾。Peter Ryan和他的同事们的一项研究发现Inaccessible岛上的垃圾堆积的原因是因为洋流导致的,文章还说明了他们是如何进行调查从而发现这一原因的,他们发现岛上的垃圾都是从陆地上被冲走的,或者是从沿海的船只上扔下的。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段Though Inaccessible is indeed remote, the nature of oceanic circulation means that this is exactly the sort of place where floating rubbish tends to ac
53、cumulate.可知,虽然Inaccessible岛的确很遥远,但海洋环流的性质意味着这里正是漂浮垃圾容易堆积的地方。由此可知,洋流的自然现象导致了Inaccessible岛的垃圾堆积。故选A。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段中A particular advantage of picking bottles to investigate is that they are often stamped with their country of manufacture.可知,挑选瓶子进行调查的一个特别优点是,它们通常都印有生产国家的标志。由此可知,Ryan博士选择瓶子作为实验对象是因为这样
54、可能可以弄清瓶子的来源。故选B。【14题详解】词义猜测题。根据上文The other two, with their rising proportions of rubbish from Asia, which is too far from the island for it to have floated there, strongly suggest it was crews empties being可知,另外两艘船中,来自亚洲的垃圾越来越多,因为亚洲离该岛太远,不可能漂浮在岛上,这有力地说明了这是船员从船上丢弃的空垃圾。由此可知,划线单词意思为“丢弃”。A. Cast away.丢弃
55、;B. Given away.分发;C. Carried out.实施;D. Put out.熄灭。故选A。【15题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段Inaccessible Island is well named. It is an uninhabited rock in the South Atlantic ocean. Go there, though, and you will find its coast is covered with litter.可知,Inaccessible岛的名字很好。它是南大西洋的一块无人居住的岩石。然而,去那里,你会发现它的海岸到处都是垃圾。结合文章主要介绍
56、了Inaccessible岛的名字很好。它是南大西洋的一块无人居住的岩石。然而,去那里,你会发现它的海岸到处都是垃圾。Peter Ryan和他的同事们的一项研究发现Inaccessible岛上的垃圾堆积的原因是因为洋流导致的,文章还说明了他们是如何进行调查从而发现这一原因的,他们发现岛上的垃圾都是从陆地上被冲走的,或者是从沿海的船只上扔下的。由此可知,D选项“Inaccessible岛上的垃圾问题”最符合文章标题,故选D。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Many parents see business
