7、道中国文化及中国美学对国际时尚的影响,展现了中国对国际时尚和设计发展的引领作用。这篇文章通过在试题情境中融入中国优秀传统文化和美学知识,引导考生在关注和提高审美情趣的同时,坚定理想信念,增强文化自信,树立正确的价值观。1What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?AIt promoted the sales of artworks.BIt attracted a large number of visitors.CIt showed ancient Chinese clothes.DIt aimed to introduce Chine
8、se models.B推理判断题。由题干中的the exhibition in New York定位到原文第三段。本段中并没有提到这次展览促进了艺术品的销售,也没有提到展示了中国古代的服装,故排除A、C两项;由“The exhibition had record attendance,showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.(此次展览吸引了破纪录的出席者,显示出人们对中国影响的浓厚兴趣)”可知,B项表述正确;由原文中的“.with the aim of exploring the influence of Chines
9、e aesthetics on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries.(旨在探索中国美学对西方时尚的影响,以及几个世纪以来中国是如何激发时尚想象力的)”可知,这次展览的目的不是介绍中国模特儿,故D项表述错误。2What does Hill say about Chinese women?AThey are setting the fashion.BThey start many fashion campaigns.CThey admire super models.D
10、They do business all over the world.A推理判断题。由原文第四段中Hill说的“.Chinese women are not just consumers of fashionthey are central to its movement.(中国女性不仅是时尚的消费者她们是这场运动的核心)”可以推断出,她们正在引领潮流,故选A项。B项“她们发起许多时尚运动”,C项“她们崇拜超模”,D项“她们在世界各地做生意”,均不符合此处的语境。3What do the underlined words “taking on” in Paragraph 4 mean?Ale
11、arning fromBlooking down onCworking withDcompeting againstD词义猜测题。由画线词后面的beating them hands down in design and sales(在设计和销售方面轻而易举地击败他们)可知,take on此处意为“与较量”,故选D项competing against。learn from向学习;look down on轻视,瞧不起;work with与共事。4What can be a suitable title for the text?AYoung Models Selling Dreams to the
12、 World BA Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New York CDifferences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsDChinese Culture Fueling International Fashion TrendsD标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章的第一段就点明了主题:对于西方设计师来说,长期以来中国及其丰富的文化一直是西方创作者的灵感来源。接下来Amanda Hill对中国文化和中国美学对国际时尚的影响进行了评价,由此可知,中国文化推动了国际时尚潮流,故D项作为文章的标题最合适。Hill说中国模特儿是
13、向全世界女性贩卖梦想的美丽和时尚活动的代言人,旨在强调中国女性在时尚方面的重要性;在纽约举办的中国艺术展只是文章提到的一个事例,不是文章论述的中心;文章中没有提到东西方在审美方面的不同,因此A、B、C三项均不能概括全文。B(2016全国卷D)The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups.

91、pportunity后接动词不定式作后置定语,故该处用动词不定式to listen。4attending考查现在分词。结合语境和句意可知,该处用现在分词,表示“我也注意到有一些非中国背景的人在参加活动”,故用现在分词。5impressive考查形容词。根据语境可知,表演令人非常难忘。根据句意可知该处用形容词作表语。6a考查不定冠词。该处泛指“热烈鼓掌”,故用不定冠词,big的发音以辅音音素开头,故用a。7musicians考查名词及其单复数。根据常识和语境可知,演出结束后,我和其中的一些音乐演奏者交谈。故空处表示“音乐演奏者”,musician为可数名词,由some可知,该处用复数形式。8wh
92、y考查连接词。根据该句中的“asked”可知,该处指询问问题;结合“due to”可知,空处询问“为什么”,故用why引导宾语从句。9mainly考查副词。副词修饰形容词,空处修饰形容词短语“due to”,故用副词形式,此处表示“主要由于他们个人的兴趣”。10will consider考查动词的时态。根据该句中的“next term”可知,该句陈述对未来的计划,故用一般将来时。 话题写作Step 1.写作要点(根据汉语提示补全所给的英文句子)中国有55个少数民族,生活在祖国各地,有人口大约1亿。There are 55 ethnic_groups_living_in every corner
