24、响【语篇解读】该文讲述了英特尔国际科学与工程大奖赛2019年的获奖者KatieLu对于这次参赛经历的回忆及体会。1答案与解析:C考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“Thisconcept.aswell”以及最后一段中的“Imshockedthatsomepeoplearestillskepticalaboutclimatechange”可推知,Katie最关注的是环境问题。2答案与解析:C考查细节理解。根据第四段中老师的话“Thatsthefuturerightthere”可知,老师认为这些优秀的参赛者都是未来的希望,能创造未来。故选C。3答案与解析:D考查主旨大意。第五段首句“Myscientif
25、iccareerhastaughtmenot.help”是该段的主题句。这一段表明了Katie在科学生涯中获得的积极向上、迎难而上的态度。4答案与解析:B考查词义猜测。根据“peoplearentreally.resources”可知,人类的行为活动对地球造成了不好的影响。由此可推知,画线词应是“控制,抑制”的意思。故选B。B语篇类型:议论文主题语境:人与社会导航导航应用【语篇解读】随着智能手机的发展,导航应用发展迅速,那么导航应用到底是让我们变得更好还是更糟糕呢?作者提出了自己的观点。5答案与解析:B考查细节理解。根据文章第二段的“North/southdirectiongetsmessed
26、up, andyoucanseeonlyasmallsectionatatime”可以得出,由于电子地图中的南北方向让人觉得混乱,而且一次只能看一小块,这让擅长使用纸质地图的人很烦恼,故选B。6答案与解析:A考查细节理解。根据文章第四段可知,作者从小生活在伊斯坦布尔。街道很少有名字,蜿蜒曲折且古老的巷子与新建的大道纵横交叉,形成各种角度。在这样的地方,最好向当地人求助。故选A。7答案与解析:C考查观点态度。第三段中的“Butconsiderwhatdigitalnavigationaidshavemeantforsomeonelikeme”以及倒数第二段中的“Infact, alongcame
27、AppleMaps, likeafairygrandmotherwhisperingdirectionsinmyear.Sincethen, Itravelwithalotmoreconfidence, andmyworldhasopenedup”等信息都表明作者对导航应用持支持的态度。8答案与解析:D考查标题判断。第一段作者提到“Thisraisestheageoldquestionwemeetwithanytechnology: Whatabilitiesisourbrainlosingtotheseapps? Butalso, importantly: Whatabilitiesarew
28、egaining”,第二段作者简单介绍导航应用给一些人带来的烦恼。接下来作者笔锋一转,重点着重于导航应用的积极一面,并在最后一段得出结论“Whileweoftenlosesomeskillsafterdependingonnewtechnology, thisnewequipmentmayalsoallowustogainnewabilities.Maybewhentechnologyclosesadoor, weshouldalsolookforthedoorsitopens”,即本文主要是对导航应用是否会让我们的大脑丧失某些能力的探讨。故答案选D。.七选五语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我
29、人生选择明智地放弃好过盲目地坚持【语篇解读】一些观点告诉我们不要轻言放弃,但是果断地放弃我们不擅长、不喜欢的事情,把精力投入到我们真正热爱、真正想做的事情上不失为一种明智的选择,毕竟生活是自己的。1答案与解析:E根据空前的“giveupandmoveon”和空后的“Confused? Whatiswrongwithgivingup?”可知,空处承接上文讲到的“放弃,开始做别的事”,故E项符合语境。2答案与解析:G根据空前的逗号可知,空处为D项或G项,根据空后一句中表述的这种努力只应该被用于自己生活中真正想要的东西上可知,G项符合语境。3答案与解析:F根据空后所举的两个例子(因为不喜欢所以弹不好
30、钢琴就放弃吧;如果无论怎样努力学习也难取得平均以上的分数,不要担心,你的才能在其他方面)可知,F项符合语境。且F项中的Therest和上文中的“whatyoureallywantinlife”形成对比。4答案与解析:C本空是一个中心句。根据本段中的“Findoutwhatyouaregoodat, whatmakesyouhappyandthenworkonit”可知,本段主要讲的是弄清楚自己擅长、喜欢做的事情,故C项适合作本段的中心句。5答案与解析:B本空是一个段尾句。根据空前的“Dontworryaboutwhatpeoplewillsayorthink.Afterall,itsyourl
31、ife”可知,你不要为别人的看法而担心,毕竟这是你自己的生活,所以B项承接上文,符合语境。.语法填空语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与社会传统文化筷子的特征及相关习俗【语篇解读】文章介绍了筷子的特征以及围绕筷子形成的一些习俗。1答案与解析:greater考查形容词的比较级。根据下文中的“than”可知,此处要用形容词的比较级形式。2答案与解析:associated考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处用过去分词短语“associatedwithchopsticks”作定语,修饰“customs”。3答案与解析:isconsidered考查时态、语态和主谓一致。该处为客观性描述,应用一般现在时;该句
32、为动名词短语“Playingwithchopsticks”作主语,谓语动词用单数形式;且此处表示玩筷子被看作是不礼貌的行为,故应用被动语态。4答案与解析:vertically考查副词。此处修饰谓语动词要用副词,故填vertically。5答案与解析:resembles考查时态和主谓一致。该处为客观性描述,应用一般现在时;本句为含有“that”引导的定语从句的主从复合句,其中主句的主语是“Anysticklikeobjectpointingupward”,是单数,故谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。6答案与解析:as考查介词。“as”在这里用作介词,意为“作为”。7答案与解析:the考查冠词。此处特指后面的“bowl”(碗)的边缘,故填定冠词。8答案与解析:toattract考查非谓语动词。此处用动词不定式短语“toattract”作目的状语。9答案与解析:their考查代词。此处的“weddinggift”与上文提到的“anewlymarriedcouple”为所属关系,故填their。10答案与解析:What考查主语从句。此处引导主语从句,且在从句中作主语,表示“的事物”,故用What来引导该从句。
