25、om a number of organizationsUNESCO and National Geographic among themhave for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin,a scientist at the Macmillan Center,Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas,is following in
26、 that tradition.His recently published book,A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living,working,and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turi
27、n,who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India,Nepal,Bhutan,and China.But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materialsincluding ph
28、otographs,films,tape recordings,and field noteswhich had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now,through the two organizations that he has foundedthe Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature ProjectTurin has started a campaign to make such documents,found i

34、es.”可推知,C项正确。BAmerica is a mobile society.Friendships between Americans can be close and real,yet disappear soon.They dont feel hurt.If the same two people meet again,even years later,they pick up the friendship.This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand.Friendships between us develop
35、more slowly but may become lifelong feelings,extending deeply into both families.There is another difficult point for us to understand.Although Americans treat friends warmly in their personal everyday lives,they dont show their politeness to them if it requires a great deal of time.But in China,we
36、are usually generous with our time.We,as hosts,will appear at an airport even in the middle of the night to meet a friend.We may take days off from our work to act as guides to our friends.It is opposite in America.Americans cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their dail
37、y plans.They will probably expect the visitors to get themselves from the airport to the hotels.And they expect the visitors will phone them from there.Once the visitors arrive at their homes,his welcome will be full,warm and real.For Americans,it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend
38、 to their homes than to restaurants,except for business matters.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes,share their holidays,and their home life.So accept their hospitality(好客) at home and enjoy your visit in America!25.The underlined phrase “pick up” in Paragraph 1 may mean “ ”.
39、A.keep outB.give upC.pay no attention toD.continue答案:D解析:词义猜测题。根据前文的意思可知,美国人的友谊即使暂时疏远的话,彼此并没有受到伤害,所以许多年后再次相遇时,他们仍能继续彼此的友谊。26.Which of the following is the typical way of American hospitality?A.Treating friends at home.B.Taking days off to be with friends.C.Meeting friends at the airport at midnight.
40、D.Sharing everything they have.答案:A解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可判断选A项。而B、C、D三项并不是美国人对待友谊的方式。27.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Americans are always generous with their time.B.Americans dont feel hurt if their friendships disappear soon.C.American friendships develop more sl
41、owly but may become lifelong feelings.D.Chinese friendships are more sincere than American friendships.答案:B解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第二句话可知A项错;由第一段的最后两句话可知C项错;根据整篇文意可知D项错。由第一段内容可知B项是正确的。28.This passage is most probably written for .A.American studentsB.Chinese studentsC.Chinese visitors to AmericaD.American vis
42、itors to China答案:C解析:主旨大意题。根据整篇文意可知这是介绍美国人对待友谊的方式,并且最后一段最后一句也点明了这一点。C(2016四川高考)In the depths of the French Guianese rainforest,there still remain unusual groups of indigenous(土著的) people.Surprisingly,these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs.And yet,people in this area
43、 are in fact French citizens because it has been a colony(殖民地) of the French Republic since 1946.In theory,they should live by the French law.However,their remote locations mean that the French law is often ignored or unknown,thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness” in the world.Th
44、e lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the efforts of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin.Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area,which sits on the edge of the Amazon rainforest,with half its population of only 250,000 living in its capi
45、tal,Cayenne.“I have a special love for the French Guianese people.I have worked there on and off for almost ten years,” says Gin.“Ive been able to keep firm friendships with them.Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment.I dont see it as a lawless land.But rather I see it a
46、s an area of freedom.”“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life,” continues Gin.“I prefer to work in black and white,which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.”His black-and-white pictures present a world almost lost in time.These pi
47、ctures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for.These local citizens now have to balance their traditional self-supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic,which brings with it not only necessary state welfare,but also alcoholi
48、sm,betrayal and even suicide.29.Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana?A.They seldom follow the French law.B.They often ignore the Guianese law.C.They are separated from the modern world.D.They are both Guianese and French citizens.答案:A解析:细节理解题。根据文章第一段的第二句和第五
49、句可知,作者之所以吃惊,是因为这些人在很大程度上靠自己的法律和社会风俗生活,经常忽视甚至不知道法国的法律,故选A项。30.Gin introduces the special world of the indigenous Guianese as .A.a tour guideB.a geographerC.a film directorD.a photographer答案:D解析:细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record.”可知,Gin想给观众展示一个摄影记录。由此可以判断,他是以摄影师的身份向世人
50、介绍土著圭亚那人。故选D项。31.What is Gins attitude towards the lives of the indigenous Guianese?A.Cautious.B.Doubtful.C.Uninterested.D.Appreciative.答案:D解析:推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“I have a special love for the French Guianese people.”可知,作者对圭亚那人有着特殊的喜爱之情,故选D项。32.What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph re
51、fer to?A.The modern French lifestyle.B.The self-supporting hunting.C.The uncivilized world.D.The French Republic.答案:A解析:指代关系题。根据上文可知,现在,圭亚那人不得不在传统生活方式和法国现代生活方式之间做出平衡,下文介绍了法国现代生活方式带来的利与弊,由此可知,it指代法国现代生活方式。故选A项。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Sometimes willpower is a lot
