27、ureinIndia”可知,Nipan自己的文化冲击经历促使他开发这款游戏。2.D细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Theaimofthegame.performingaseriesoftasks.”可知,游戏中的人物需要完成多项任务。3.D细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“C-Shockcouldbeusedtoguidestudentsthrougheventssuchascourseregistration”可知,C-Shock的用户会获得课程注册方面的信息。4.A细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Thegameisinthefinalstageofdevelopment”可知,这款游戏的设计到了收
28、尾阶段。【篇章导读】本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了风靡全球的畅销书角色蜘蛛侠的创作过程。5.B句意理解题。根据第二、三段的内容可知,Spider-Man的诞生可谓一波三折。由此可推知,StanLee是说,一开始这个角色的市场化并不成功。6.C推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Hetooktheideato.saidhisboss.”可知,一开始StanLee关于Spider-Man的构想并没有得到认可。7.C推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Amonthlater,afterallthesalesnumbers.makehimaregularfeature.”及第二段中的“Superheroeshaveto
29、beadults.superheroes,saidhisboss.”可知,看到销售数字一路攀升,StanLee的老板对于Spider-Man的看法有了改观。8.A推理判断题。综合全文可知,StanLee创造力十足,创作了备受欢迎的Spider-Man,再结合最后一段中StanLee答记者问的内容“Beingbusyisthebestmedicinethereis.Aslongasyourenotbusybeingabadperson.”可知,这位老人还十分风趣幽默。二、【篇章导读】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了流行音乐的相关知识。1.B根据上一句中的Popular可知,流行音乐为大多数人所“喜爱
30、(enjoy)”。2.D根据该句中的folkmusic可知,民间音乐是一些普通人所创作出的“传统的(traditional)”乐曲。3.A根据上一句中的“Itisdifferentfromfolkmusic.”可知,此处接着说明流行音乐“也(also)”有别于古典音乐。4.C该空后的“rock,country,rap,rhythmandblues(orR&B),thebluesandjazz”是列举的流行音乐的几种类型,因此选C项。5.B根据常识可知,流行音乐流行时间不长实属“常见(common)”。6.D根据上一句中“popularmusictobepopularforonlyashortt
31、ime”可知,新推出的歌曲经常会“替代(replace)”那些曾经的热门歌曲。7.C根据下一句“Thestylesofbigband,soulanddiscoarenolongeraspopularastheyoncewere.”可知,甚至连流行音乐的“类型(types)”也可能会失去人气。8.A上一句中的“nolongeraspopularastheyoncewere”和该空后的haveremainedpopular之间是转折关系,因此选A项。9.D根据该段首句中的“bepopularforonlyashorttime”可知,较这些昙花一现的流行乐曲不同的是,有的歌曲或类型会持续相当长的时间
32、,因此填years才能表达此处的强烈对比。10.B根据上一句中的Popularmusic以及整篇文章主要介绍流行音乐可知,此处指19世纪时,一些管乐团和旅行音乐团体将“流行(popular)”音乐带给越来越多的群体。11.C根据下一句中的“SongwritersinNewYorkCitywrotemanypopularsongs.”和“AfricanAmericanscreatedjazzandothernewformsofpopularmusic”可知,19世纪末20世纪初,美国是一个“重要的(important)”流行音乐中心。12.A“纽约市的词曲作者写了很多广受欢迎的歌曲”与“非洲裔美
33、国人创作出了爵士和其他形式的流行音乐”之间为并列关系,故填and。13.D根据该句中的phonographrecordsappeared可知,留声机唱片的出现使得人们能够在家“听(listento)”音乐。14.B根据上下文介绍流行音乐的发展历程可知,“很快(Soon)”早期的广播电台开始播放流行歌曲。然后在20世纪50年代“出现了(appeared)”摇滚音乐。15.D见上题解析。16.A根据上一句“Itbecamewildlypopularwithyoungpeople.”和该句中的is可知,摇滚乐现在“仍然(still)”是众所周知的流行音乐的一种类型。17.C在20世纪和21世纪交替之
34、际,广播、电视、电影以及网络“促进了(helped)”流行音乐的发展和变化。18.B上一句中的“radio,television,moviesandtheInternet”是“发明(inventions)”。19.D根据全文介绍音乐的语境可知,数以百万计的人们可以在家同时收听同一首“歌(song)”。20.A根据我们日常生活中所见的媒体网络对于音乐的广泛宣传可知,这些发明也“成就了(make)”流行音乐这一巨大的产业。三、第二句:sincerelysincere;inon第三句:whatthat 或删除what第四句:hadhave第五句:progressesprogress;orand第六句:删除been或enjoyedenjoying第七句: encouragedencouraging第八句:heyou;you后加a
