20、nter”部分中“Celebrate all that is handcrafted(庆祝所有的手工制作)”可知,这里所有的东西都是手工制作的,故选B项。【3题详解】推理判断题。通读全文并结合文章第一句可知,文章主要介绍了纽约今年最受欢迎的节日和集市,由此推测本文可能摘自节日和庆祝展览。故选C项。BLOS ANGELES, Nov. 12 (Xinhua)Legendary comic book writer Stan Lee has died at the age of 95, according to media reports on Monday.Lee, born in Stanley
21、 Lieber on Dec. 28th, 1922, began his career in 1939 and joined the Marvel Comics in 1961.He is considered as one of the most legendary names in the history of comic books and the leading creative force behind the rise of Marvel Comics. He co-created iconic fictional characters such as Spider-Man, X
22、-Men, the Avengers, and many more.Lees characters often have super powers, but they also have weaknesses. They were humans, not gods. They not only struggled to save the world, but also to pay their bills, make friends, and hold jobs. This made Marvel comic book heroes stand apart from its competito
23、r DC, which produced the seemingly perfect heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman. Those superheroes have been adapted into blockbuster films, most of which were made after Disney acquired Marvel in a 4-billion-dollar deal in 2009.In a statement, Bob Iger, chairman and CEO of the Walt Disney Company
24、said Stan Lee was as extraordinary as the characters he created.Marvel also praised Lee on its website by putting on one of Lees famous quotes, which goes, “I used to be embarrassed because I was just a comic-book writer while other people were building bridges or going on to medical careers. And th
25、en I began to realize: entertainment is one of the most important things in peoples lives. Without it, they might go off the deep end. I feel that if youre able to entertain, youre doing a good thing. ”Praise from his Hollywood peers and colleagues was generous. President of Marvel Studios Kevin Fei
26、ge appreciated Lees unparalleled impact on the industry. “No one has had more of an impact on my career than Stan Lee,” Feige said. “Our thoughts are with his family and the millions of fans who have been forever touched by Stans genius, charisma and heart.”4. How do Lees characters differ from thos
27、e of DC?A. They are perfect heroes.B. They often have super powers.C. They are not humans, but gods.D. They have human shortcomings.5. We can learn from Lees statement in Paragraph 6 that _.A. it is embarrassing to be a comic-book writerB. a taste of entertainment is necessary in peoples livesC. ent

30、6. A 7. C【解析】这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了著名漫画作者斯坦李的生前事迹,他被认为是漫画史上最具传奇色彩的人物之一,也是漫威漫画崛起背后的主要创作力量。同时他也认为娱乐活动是人们生活中最重要的事情之一。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Lees characters often have super powers, but they also have weaknesses.”可知Lee创作出的角色是有弱点的,结合下文“This made Marvel comic book heroes stand apart from its competitor DC”可知,这正是使得他所
31、在公司漫威漫画公司不同于DC公司角色的原因。故选D。【5题详解】细节理解题。第六段倒数第二句“then I began to realize: entertainment is one of the most important things in peoples lives.”Lee意识到娱乐是人们生活中最重要的事情之一,故选B。【6题详解】细节理解题。最后一段倒数第二句“No one has had more of an impact on my career than Stan Lee, ” Feige said.”可知Feige说没有人比斯坦李对他的职业生涯影响更大了,故选A。【7题详
32、解】主旨大意题。文章属于人物传记类文章,主要围绕斯坦李的生前事迹进行展开。且文章第一段第一句已经点明“Legendary comic book writer Stan Lee has died at the age of 95”斯坦李的去世是写这篇文章的初衷,故综合选项C选项最切合题意。CSocieties all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of
33、reference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits die hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after
34、 the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore(新加坡) are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countriesin both the West and the East.Another way of nam
35、ing places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in for
36、mer British bases. If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circusobviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example, “Base Basah” means “wet rice” in Ma
37、lay(马来语). Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their shapes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describ
38、e their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent(月牙) because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.8. What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Change suddenly.B. Change significantly.C. Disa
39、ppear mysteriously.D. Disappear very slowly.9. Which of the following places is named after a person?A. Raffles Place.B. Selector Airbase.C. Piccadilly Circus.D. Paya Lebar Crescent.10. Bras Basah Road is named _.A. after a personB. after a placeC. after an activityD. by its shape11. We learn from P
40、aragraph 1 that _.A. the government is usually the first to name a placeB. many places tend to have more than one nameC. a ceremony will be held when a place is namedD. people prefer the place names given by the government【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍世界上不同地区的人们以类似的方式为地点命名,如:以先驱者的名字命名
41、;以其他地点的名字命名;以活动的名称命名;以形状命名等。【8题详解】词义猜测题。从划线词“die hard”后句“and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.”可知,尽管其意义已消失很长时间,但人们仍然以非官方的名字来称呼该地方,所以“die hard”的词义应为:消失得很慢。故选D项。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段前两句可知,新加坡的许多道路和地方都被命名,以便后代记住这些先驱者。因此我们有Stamford Road 和Raffles Place广场这
42、样的名字。所以Raffles Place应是指先驱者的名字。故选A项。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段前两句“Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example,”可知,有些地方是以过去在这些地方进行的活动命名的。Bras Basah路就是一个有趣的例子。所以Bras Basah路是以活动命名的。故选C项。【11题详解】推理判断题。从第一段“Frequently it happens that a p
43、lace has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government.”可知,一个地方有两个名字的事情经常发生,一个是由人们命名,一个是政府命名的,所以许多地方不只有一个名字,故选B项。【点睛】DWhen we go out traveling,we need either a map or GPS to point us in the right direction.But bumblebees(大黄蜂)have neither of these things,yet they still know th
44、e best route.Why is that?It turns out that these hard-working little bees try many possible passages before picking out the best one and remembering it the next time they journey out.They learn from“trial and error”,according to a study by scientists from the University of London.We use it all the t

46、 sound a bit tiring,but its certainly effective and it works for bumblebees.In the study,scientists set up five artificial flowers in a field.Each one of them was fitted with motion-triggered(运动触发的)cameras and had landing platforms with drops of sugar in the middle to attract the bees.At first,scien
47、tists noticed the bees flying routes were long and complex.But after they gained enough experience,they gradually got to their destination quicker.Every time a bee tried a new route that was shorter than the route it had tried before,it was likely to use it again.Otherwise the new route would simply
48、 be given up and another one was tested.“The speed at which they learn through trial and error is quite extraordinary for bumblebees,as this complex behavior was thought to be one that only larger-brained animals have,”Professor Lars Chittka,leader of the study,told S.In fact,the smart bumblebees do
49、nt try every possible route.Normally,they would only try about 20 out of the 120 possible routes to visit the flowers.More interestingly,scientists found that if they removed a flower,bees would continue looking at that location,even if it has been empty for a long time.“It seems bees dont easily fo
50、rget a fruitful flower,”Chittka said.12. The bumblebees are good at finding the best route because _.A. they have relatively smaller brainsB. their body parts function like GPSC. they try out different routes and remember the best onesD. they take the trouble of testing every possible route13. The a

52、umblebees take is shorter than the one they take beforeC. bumblebees are familiar with every flying route they have taken beforeD. scientists find it unbelievable that bumblebees learn from their mistakes so quickly15. What is the main point of the article?A. Bumblebees are as smart as large-brained
53、 animals.B. Trial and error is an effective way to solve our daily problems.C. A new discovery about how bumblebees find the best routes through trial and error.D. How bumblebees remember the best routes,small as their brains are.【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. C【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是关于大黄蜂如何通过反复试验找到最佳路线的新发现。
54、【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句It turns out that these hard-working little bees try many possible passages before picking out the best one and remembering it the next time they journey out.可知,大黄蜂善于找到最好的路线,因为它们会尝试不同的路线,记住最好的路线。故选C。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段We use it all the time in our daily livestrial and error is a
55、helpful problem-solving method.It is the basic concept of“learning from your mistakes”.Most of the time,we fail on our first try,so we analyze the failure,make adjustments and try again.After repeating this a few times,we finally get things right.可知,作者通过对人类行为的探讨,解释了大黄蜂的试错行为。故选D。【14题详解】细节理解题。根据第七段“Th
56、e speed at which they learn through trial and error is quite extraordinary for bumblebees,as this complex behavior was thought to be one that only larger-brained animals have,”可知,Lars Chittka领导的这项研究表明,科学家们认为大黄蜂从错误中学习的速度之快令人难以置信。故选D。【15题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段It turns out that these hard-working little bees t

68、上起下的作用。像but(但是)、however(然而),表示转折,这说明前后的内容相反或相对。把握住这一点,做起题来就会得心应手。本题第5小题,G项However, the reward from success and personal accomplishment will be worth it.(然而,成功和个人成就的回报是值得的。)切题。该项中的the reward和be worth与上文中的whatever cost构成一种转折关系。第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D
