6、 earth ，and a river is formed when streams come together.”A.accumulates B.acceleratesC.collapses D.loosens答案A解析考查动词辨析。句意为：中国有句谚语，“积土成塔，聚水成河。”accumulate积累；accelerate加速；collapse倒塌；loosen使变松。由“and a river is formed when streams come together”可知，前后两个句子为并列关系。所以accumulate“积累”符合句意。故A选项正确。27.That was rather

12、that caseC.in whose case D.in which case答案D解析考查定语从句。句意为：博客讨论也许会屏蔽新的评论，在这种情况下，会有消息通知你的。句中which case指代前面一句话的内容，引导非限制性定语从句，in which case意为“在这种情况下”。选项中what不能引导定语从句，that通常不能放在介词的后面，whose的语义不搭配。故D项正确。33.The mayor， writing the report，turned off the light，closed the door and went directly to his bedroom.A.t
13、o finish B.finishedC.finishing D.having finished答案D解析句意为：写完这份报告之后，市长关了灯和门，径直朝他的卧室走去。分析句子结构可知，空处应填非谓语动词，且The mayor与finish之间是主谓关系，再结合题干中的“turned off the light，closed the door and went directly to his bedroom”可知，finish所表示的动作发生在并列的谓语动词所表示的动作之前，故空处应用现在分词的完成式。34.Try she might，Sue couldnt get the door open
14、.A.if B.when C.since D.as答案D解析as在此意为“虽然，尽管”，引导从句需用倒装语序，即把句中的形容词、副词、名词或者谓语动词提到as前面。故选D。35.So you missed the wonderful lecture given by the famous professor? .I got there 10 minutes before it finished.A.You got me there B.You said itC.I hate to say it D.Not exactly答案D解析考查情景交际。You got me there你难住我了；You
15、 said it你说对了；I hate to say it我讨厌这么说；Not exactly不全是。句意为：这么说你错过了那位著名教授的精彩演讲了？ 不完全是。我在演讲结束前10分钟到达了那里。结合句意可知答案为D。第二节完形填空(共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分)请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。They may have text，email，Facebook and Twitter，but young people are still lonelier than any other age group.The Loneliness in N

49、ause they have a thick layer of blubber(鲸脂).We humans rely on something like blubberneoprene rubber(氯丁橡胶) wetsuitsto spend time in cold water.But the thick versions for really icy water are heavy and ungainly.So rather than taking after big marine mammals，what if we could learn from the little ones，
50、like beavers(海狸) and otters(水獭)?“These animals are quite small and they cant carry around a thick layer of blubber.So instead they have fur that is evolved to trap air，and this air provides a layer of insulation for them in water.”Alice Nasto is a graduate student in mechanical engineering at MIT.Sc
51、ientists have known about this air-trapping insulation mechanism for a long time，but they had not teased out the details of how it works.So Nasto and her colleagues took on the challenge.“Were creating these furry samples from these rubbery materials by laser cutting molds and casting these hairy su
52、rfaces.And through our approach we can precisely control the spacing of the hairs and the length of the hairs.”The researchers then created a system to gather data when their pelts entered and moved through a liquidin this case not water，but silicone oil，which makes it easier to see air bubbles.The
53、key is to keep the pelts air layer intact.“So when theyre crossing the air water interface，initially their hairy texture is full of air.And then you go into water.How much of the air comes down with you as youre moving in through the interface.So thats what this model will tell you.”They found that
54、the denser the hairs，the more the air get trapped，which should keep the animalor potentially the human in a future furry wetsuitwarm.The research is in the journal Physical Review Fluids.“What we would like to work on moving forward is understanding，after you dive into the water，how do you maintain
55、this air layer trapped in your fur.And theres lots of interesting properties of the fur in nature that we havent yet looked at in our model that could help explain how this mechanism might work.”So for now，cold-water divers and surfers will still emulate seals or sea lions.But the day may come when
56、theyll more closely resemble otters or beavers.Or even a Wookiee on a boogie board.语篇解读这是一篇科普类文章。文章叙述了体积较小的海洋哺乳动物在寒冷的水中如何保持身体温暖，以及麻省理工学院机械工程专业的一名研究生爱丽丝纳斯托和她的同事们所做的进一步的研究。61.The passage is most probably taken from .A.a story book B.a newspaperC.a travel book D.a science magazine答案D解析文章出处题。由文章的主要内容可知，

60、An Important ResearchC.A Wonderful MechanismD.A Thick Layer of Blubber答案A解析标题归纳题。文章主要叙述了体积较小的海洋哺乳动物在寒冷的水中利用自己的皮毛保持体温温暖，以及爱丽丝纳斯托及其同事对它的进一步的研究。故选项A是正确答案。D“What is civilization？” asked Kenneth Clark 50 years ago in the BBC series on the subject.“I dont know，and I cant define it in abstract terms，yet.Bu
61、t I think I can recognise it when I see it，and Im looking at it now.” And he turned to gesture behind him，at the soaring Gothic towers and flying buttresses of Notre Dame.It seems inhuman to care more about a building than about people.That the sight of Notre Dame going up in flame has attracted so
62、much more attention than floods in southern Africa which killed over 1,000 arouses understandable feelings of guilt.Yet the widespread，intense grief at the sight of the cathedrals collapsing steeple(尖塔) is in fact profoundly humanand in a particularly 21st-century way.It is not just the economy that
63、 is global today，it is culture too.People wander the world in search not just of jobs and security but also of beauty and history.A building on whose sunny steps you have rested，in front of which you have taken a selfie with your loved one，becomes a warm part of your memories and thus of yourself.Th

66、y recognisable cultural symbols is tiny: the Mona Lisa，Michelangelos David，the Taj Mahal，the Great Pyramidand Notre Dame.Disaster，too，is visual.In the 24 hours after the fire started videos on social media of the burning cathedral were viewed nearly a quarter of a billion times.Yet the emotions the

70、 religious people from atheists，those of all faiths and none are mourning together.An edifice(宏伟建筑) built for the glory of God also represents the unity of the human spirit.And it will be rebuilt.The morning after the fire，the many Parisians who went to the cathedral to mourn its destruction found c
71、omfort instead.Although the spire is gone，the towers are still standing and it seems likely that the whole building can be revived.The effort to rebuild it，like the fire，will bring people together.Within 24 hours，6000m ($677m) had been raised from businesses and rich people，and a lot of crowd-fundin
72、g campaigns started.A high-resolution laser scan of the building，carried out recently，should help.It will never be the same，but that is as it should be.As Victor Hugo wrote in The Hunchback of Notre Dame，a three-volume love-letter to the cathedral：“Great edifices，like great mountains，are the work of
73、 centuries.Art is often transformed as it is being made.Time is the architect，the nation is the builder.”语篇解读这是一篇夹叙夹议文。人类文明延续至今，已经有几千年的历史，正是有了这些伟大艺术的存在，人类才能超越个体的短暂，让精神长存。像巴黎圣母院这样的建筑不仅是法国人民的骄傲，也是全人类的瑰宝。火灾发生后，全世界的人们为巴黎圣母院哀悼，并为它的修复贡献自己的力量。65.What do the first two paragraphs imply?A.We should feel guilt
74、y about ignoring the floods in southern Africa.B.People in modern times tend to care a lot about history and civilization.C.The destruction of a historic building is more serious than the loss of life.D.The human civilization is gone with the burning of Notre Dame Cathedral.答案B解析推理判断题。由前两段可知，“但我想当我看
75、到它的时候我能认出它，现在我正在看它。”他转过身来，指向身后高耸的哥特式塔楼和高耸的巴黎圣母院。比起关心人，更关心建筑似乎有违人道主义。然而，实际上，看到大教堂尖塔倒塌，那种广泛深刻的悲痛正是人性深刻的体现，这是一种二十一世纪的独特方式。所以前两段暗示出，在现代，人们往往更加关心历史和文明。故B选项正确。66.Which of the following can explain why China and India respond differently to the cathedral on fire?A.Familiarity produces affection.B.A friend
76、in need is a friend indeed.C.Absence makes the heart grow fonder.D.Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.答案A解析细节理解题。由第三段可知，如今，不仅经济全球化，文化也走向全球化。人们漫游世界，不仅仅为了寻求工作和安全，也为寻找美好和历史。一个建筑，如果你曾在它洒满阳光的台阶上休息，曾一起和爱人在它前面自拍，那么它就会成为你记忆中温暖的一部分，因此成为你的一部分。中国游客如洪水般涌进西方各国，相比之下，印度前往西方的游客数量可谓是涓涓细流。所以A选项“熟会生爱”可以解释为什么中国和印度对巴黎
77、圣母院着火的反应不同。故A选项正确。67.The cultural symbols in the fourth paragraph are mentioned to prove that .A.news has wings in the age of social media nowadaysB.only a few cultural symbols can become world-famousC.disasters become more powerful with some visual effectD.cultural symbols have taken on new meaning
78、s in the visual age答案A解析推理判断题。根据第四段可知，这个视觉时代赋予美以新能量，社交媒体将艺术名作变成了巨星。然而，只有少数作品获得了这种地位。正如世界著名演员屈指可数，因此，全球可识别文化标志性艺术作品也很少，主要有：蒙娜丽莎、米开朗基罗的大卫、泰姬陵、大金字塔，以及巴黎圣母院。灾难也进行了视觉呈现。大火发生后的24小时内，社交媒体上关于燃烧的巴黎圣母院视频点击量近2.5亿次。所以社交媒体的力量是巨大的，他能将全球可识别文化标志迅速传播。故判断出第四段中提到的文化标志证明当今社交媒体时代的新闻传播速度之快。故A选项正确。68.When the cathedral wa
