26、y features.But Christiansen couldnt find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.Most of us，when we talk about volcanoes，think of the classic cone(圆锥体)shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro，which are created when erupting magma(岩浆)piles up.These can form remarkably quickly.In 1943，a Mexican farmer was surprised t
27、o see smoke rising from a small part of his land.In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high.Within two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across.Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth，all but a
28、 few hundred of them extinct.There is，however，a second less known type of volcano that doesnt involve mountain building.These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack，leaving behind a vast hole，the caldera.Yellowstone obviously was of this second type，but Christiansen co
29、uldnt find the caldera anywhere.Just at this time NASA decided to test some new highaltitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone.A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice blowup for one of the visitors centers.As
30、 soon as Christiansen saw the photos，he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera：almost the whole park2.2 million acreswas caldera.The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles acrossmuch too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level.At some time in the past Yellowstone must have blo
31、wn up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了鲍勃探寻黄石国家公园火山的故事。21What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone?AIts complicated geographical features.BIts everlasting influence on tourism.CThe mysterious history of the park.DThe exact location of th
32、e volcano.答案：D解析：细节理解题。根据第一段“.Bob Christiansen became puzzled about.had not troubled anyone before：he couldnt find the parks volcano.”可知，鲍勃感到迷惑的是，他在黄石国家公园没有找到火山，即：火山的准确位置。22What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?AThe shapes of volcanoes.BThe impacts of volcanoes.CThe activities of volcanoe
33、s.DThe heights of volcanoes.答案：A解析：段落大意题。文章的第二段主要介绍了两种类型火山的形成过程，一种是形成圆锥体形状的火山，富士山和乞力马扎罗山就是其典型代表；另外一种是通过爆裂岩浆而形成巨大裂口的火山，而黄石国家公园恰恰就是这一种。所以本段主要讲述了火山的形态，故选A项。23What does the underlined word “blowup” in the last paragraph most probably mean?AHotair balloon.BDigital camera. CBig photograph.DBirds view.答案：C
34、解析：词义猜测题。根据最后一段“.a nice blowup for one of the visitors centers.As soon as Christiansen saw the photos.”可知，the photos所指的就是前面提及的blowup，所以推断blowup相当于photo(photograph)，故选C项。BKaite Blomquist, a 1st grade teacher at Pepperhill Elementary School in North Charleston, South Carolina, learned last year that o

Which words can
43、 best describe Katie Blomquist?ASympathetic and devoted.BAggressive and independent.CGenerous and honest.DResponsible and sociable.答案：A解析：推理判断题。通读全文可知，为了实现一名学生的生日愿望和给学校所有贫困学生提供一辆自行车这一目标，Katie发起了GoFundMe捐款活动，并且后来为了支持儿童的基本权利，她又创办了慈善组织Going Places。由此可以推断，她是一位富有同情心且乐于奉献的人。因此答案选A。CElderly people who drin

90、ed解析：考查被动语态。establish和it是被动关系，青年节是被建立的，所以该空需用被动语态。根据后面的“in December of 1949”可知，该句时态应为一般过去时。故填was established。57to_honor解析：考查动词不定式。该空需用动词不定式作目的状语，动词原形不能作目的状语。故填to honor。58a解析：考查冠词。这里表示泛指，一次和平会议，所以需用冠词a。故填a。59that解析：考查宾语从句。该句demand后接and连接的两个宾语从句，所以该空需用关系词that来引导宾语从句。故填that。60which解析：考查非限制性定语从句。该句缺少主语，
91、而该句的主语是逗号前的Shandong，所以该空需用关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句，在句中作主语。故填which。61illegal解析：考查词意。根据句意可知，德国把山东转让给了日本是不合法的特权。legal“合法的”，需改为其反义词。故填illegal。62universities解析：考查名词的数。university是可数名词，来自不同的大学，这里需用名词复数。故填universities。63against解析：考查介词。这里的意思是抗议反对这项决定，against为介词，意为“反对”。故填against。64making解析：考查非谓语动词。该句逗号前后主语一致，且与mak
92、e是主动关系，所以需用现在分词。故填making。65beginning解析：考查名词。由the和of可知，该空需填名词，the beginning of.“的开始”，故填beginning。第四部分：写作(共两节，满分40分)第一节：应用文写作(满分15分)假定你是李华，你的英国好友Peter 8月份打算来中国旅游，想先学习一些中文，却不知道如何入门。你决定帮助他，用英语给他写一封邮件告诉他你的建议。内容包括：1你给他的学习建议；2介绍你帮助他的计划；3对结果的展望。注意：1.词数80左右；2可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。Dear Peter，Im_deli
