Scientists need to have a lot of imagination to understand what an octopus is thinking!In the 1950s, the US Air Force sponsored scientists to study the way octopuses use their brains. The
19、y hoped that they could use this knowledge to help them build better computers. However, their brains were so complex that the scientists felt it of no significance to continue with it. Octopuses have a very complex nervous system and recent research suggests that they have some of their intelligenc

26、e manors owners, Tanya and Mikey Carr-Hartley, share their dining table with them.

Tanya said, “Mikey and I grew up near this manor house when we were children. We are b
28、oth third generation Kenyans and have always wanted to work in conservation. Mikeys family have been related to the protection of animals for many generations. His granddad helped the removal of giraffes as far back as the 1930s because the Rothschild giraffes lost much of their natural living space
29、. When the house came up for sale, we jumped at the chance to buy it as we had always dreamed of owning it. Now, we were absolutely overjoyed to do something for the giraffe protection. Having the giraffes so close is very special and something which people can now experience by staying in one of th
30、e ten rooms at the hotel.”A conservation project to save them was started at the manor in 1974 by the previous owners. “The previous owners ran a very successful breeding (繁殖) programme, where many giraffes were set free into the wild and we hope to continue,” said Tanya.28.

Part of the cooling design includes avoiding east-or west-facing wind
36、ows, and window shading.And theyre in high demand. Ian Pritchett, of Ssassy Property, thinks the Government should do more to promote the construction of this type of housing. “Unfortunately, the Government relaxed the proposed 2016 zero-carbon targets after being lobbied(游说)by house builders,” Ian
37、explained. “At present, the main house-building corporations control the land and only build at the rate they are sure will sell, keeping the UKs housing shortage so that the normal rules of supply and demand dont apply. When there is a shortage of housing, buyers have to purchase what is available
38、rather than what they might want.”In any sensible society, we would expect the planning system to actively encourage zero-carbon houses,and he tough on anyone failing to deliver the necessary standard. Instead, we have a planning system that focuses on other aspects such as numbers of bedrooms, gard

68、China and experience the charm of Chinese art.【解析】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了伦敦的五个著名景点(白金汉宫;大本钟;威斯敏斯特宫;伦敦塔和特拉法尔加广场)的地理位置和历史以及用途等。【21题详解】细节理解题。根据选项的建造历史可知,具有最长历史的是The Tower of London,从14世纪开始,“帝国皇冠”就放在这里了。第二个是建于1703年的前白金汉宫。故选D。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据“Since the beginning of the 14th century, the tower of London has been the
69、 home of the world famous British Crown Jewels- they are a must of your visit!”可知,自14世纪初以来,伦敦塔一直是世界著名的英国皇冠珠宝的存放之地-它们是你参观的必到之处!故选B。【23题详解】细节理解题。根据“It was named in 1835 to give honour to the memory of the British victory over the French at Trafalgar in 1805.”可知,Trafalgar Square 是纪念 1805 年英国在特拉法加战胜法国这个
70、历史事件。故选A。【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。一些科学家认为,地球上最聪明的生物之一就是章鱼。到目前为止,人们对章鱼也是知之甚少。【24题详解】推理判断题。第二段谈到:章鱼通常生活在河口和海洋的底部,这些地方对研究人员没有吸引力。它们不是群居动物,因此很难研究它们与其它动物的相互作用。而且章鱼的智力也不容易被人类理解。章鱼看起来像外星人。科学家需要有丰富的想象力才能理解章鱼在想什么!由这些可推知,人们对章鱼的理解很少。故选B。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“However, their brains were so complex that the scientists felt i
71、t of no significance to continue with it.”信息可知,科学家发现章鱼的大脑是如此复杂,他们觉得继续研究下去是没有用的。由此可知他们最终放弃了研究。故选A。【26题详解】词义猜测题。本句前面谈到:章鱼最惊人的地方在于它们改变颜色和身体形态的能力;由本句后面的“to avoid their enemies(以逃避敌人)”可知,它们这样做是为了伪装自己以躲避敌人。A. Relax放松,休息;B. Strengthen加强,增强;C. Hide隐蔽,躲避;D. Express表达。故选C。【27题详解】细节理解题。最后一段作者谈到 “Theres a long
72、way to go to get to know the octopus completely.(完全了解章鱼还有很长的路要走)”,可知作者认为要了解章鱼不容易。故选D。【点睛】猜测词义题在高考中有三种考查形式:生词猜测词义或熟词生义、猜测一句话的意思、指代关系猜词(代词或者名词)。从近三年考查形势看,三种考查方式同等重要。本文中考查的是生词猜测词义。这种题型的解法主要是在生词后找到其释义句。例如本题中的第三题考查的就是生词词义猜测,由划线单词后表达的目的“to avoid their enemies(以躲避敌人)”可知,章鱼是要保护它们自己。划线单词意思与avoid是相呼应的。据此即可选出正
73、确答案。【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。位于肯尼亚内罗毕附近的长颈鹿庄园是世界上唯一一家以长颈鹿为主题的酒店,庄园的主人卡尔哈特雷夫妇以与9只罗斯柴尔德长颈鹿同住而闻名。这种世界上最高的动物自由徜徉在庄园里,每天快到9时的时候,这些长颈鹿就会漫步房前,穿过窗户或者门把脑袋探进房间寻找美味早餐。【28题详解】细节理解题。第一段中提到“Every day shortly before 9am, they come up to the house and stick their heads through the windows and doors in search of morning trea
74、ts. The manors owners, Tanya and Mikey Carr-Hartley, share their dining table with them.(九只罗斯柴尔德长颈鹿,可以在这个英式庄园里自由漫步。每天上午快到9点的时候,它们就会来到这所房子里,把头伸进窗户和门里寻找早餐。庄园的主人Tanya和Mikey Carr-Hartley与他们共用一张餐桌)”,由这些信息可知,卡尔哈特雷一家之所以特别是因为他们与长颈鹿共享他们的生活。故选B。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段提及的“Mikeys family have been related to the prot
75、ection of animals for many generations. His granddad helped the removal of giraffes as far back as the 1930s because the Rothschild giraffes lost much of their natural living space.(米基家族几代人都与保护动物有关。他的祖父早在20世纪30年代就帮助长颈鹿迁徙,因为罗斯柴尔德长颈鹿的自然生存空间消失殆尽。)”信息,可知米基一家与长颈鹿有很深的历史渊源。故选A。【30题详解】细节理解题。由最后一段中的“The prev
76、ious owners ran a very successful breeding (繁殖) programme, where many giraffes were set free into the wild(以前的主人进行了一个非常成功的繁殖项目,许多长颈鹿被放生到野外。)”可知,他们的保护计划成果明显。A. Visitor-friendly对游客很友好;B. Energy-saving节省能源的;C. Costly昂贵的;D. Fruitful成果丰硕的。故选D。【31题详解】主旨大意题。本文开篇谈到:卡尔哈特雷夫妇通过向世界上唯一的长颈鹿酒店的客人开放庄园大门来与公众分享与长颈鹿亲密
77、接触的奇妙经历。客人可以在早餐时喂长颈鹿,也可以从二楼的卧室靠近它们。第二段还谈到:长颈鹿离我们这么近是一件很特别的事,现在人们住在酒店的10个房间的任何一间就能体验到这种感觉。由此可知,C项(世界上惟一的长颈鹿酒店)最能体现本文的主题思想。故选C。【点睛】主旨大意题是篇章阅读一个主要的考察方式,标题题(best title)是其一个典型的考点,也是高考阅读中每年的必考题。主旨大意题解题技巧是不要被文章细节所干扰。一般有两种方式解题:一是看首尾段,根据首尾段内容总结主题思想;二是看每段段首句,根据所有段首句总结主题思想。例如本文中的第四题,就是标题类的主旨大意题。文章总共三段,第一段描述庄园内
78、的现状,第二段描述庄园主人与庄园的渊源,第三段描述庄园内曾做过的繁殖长颈鹿的项目,所以本文都是围绕庄园展开的,由第一段可知,庄园也是世界上唯一的长颈鹿旅馆。故选C。【解析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了英国首个零碳家园的建设。涉及了零碳家园的基本特点、供求情况以及政府对此的态度。【32题详解】细节理解题。由第二段中的“Buyers are able to have the final say on floor layouts,kitchens and bathrooms. One three-bedroom home is on the market for801 ,000,with a custom
79、 build available to suit your own specification.(买家可以对楼层布局、厨房和浴室拥有最终决定权。市场上有一套三居室的房子,售价为80.1万英镑,可以根据自己的需求定制。)” 可知买家可以决定这种房屋的内部布局。故选C。【33题详解】细节理解题。由第三段中的“And theyre in high demand. Ian Pritchett, of Ssassy Property, thinks the Government should do more to promote the construction of this type of hous
80、ing.(这种房子需求量很大。Ssassy房产公司的伊恩普里切特(Ian Pritchett)认为,政府应该为促进这类住房的建设做出更多努力。)”可知,人们很欢迎这类房子。故选A。34题详解】细节理解题。由第三段中的“At present, the main house-building corporations control the landbuyers have to purchase what is available rather than what they might want. (目前,主要的房屋建筑公司控制着土地,只按他们确信会出售的速度建造房屋,这使得英国的住房短缺,使房屋
81、“供应和需求”难以达到的正常要求。当房屋短缺时,购房者不得不购买现在所有的,而不能买他们想要的。)”可知,房屋建造公司想让购房更为困难。故选D。【35题详解】推理判断题。最后一段作者谈到:在任何一个理性的社会,我们都希望房屋规划系统积极鼓励零碳排放的住房,并对任何未能达到必要标准的人采取严厉措施。相反,我们的房屋规划局却专注于其他方面的规划,比如卧室数量、花园面积和停车位。这些都是重要的方面,但与气候变化的灾难性后果相比,它们就显得微不足道了。由此可知,作者对政府的房屋规划持不同的意见。A. Satisfied满意的;B. Disapproving 不赞同的;C. Worried担心的,担忧的
82、;D. Ambiguous模棱两可的。故选B。【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了人与人之间如何提高沟通的技巧。36题详解】本段主要谈到:站直了,就会显得自信。微笑,你会显得平易近人。不要把双臂交叉在胸前,因为这会告诉别人你不赞同。把手放在身体两侧,或者如果你坐着,把手放在膝盖上。由此可知,本段在谈我们在与他人交流时的肢体语言。故选A。【37题详解】本题属于段中句。本段的段首句谈到:说话时要有自信。E选项与段首句中的“ when you speak”信息有联系,表示:当你和别人说话的时候,一定要看着对方的眼睛。显示有自信心。本空后文有“when you are speaking to the
83、m”,也暗示了本题的答案。本题容易误选B。如果不联系上下文,单从本空来看,选B似乎讲得通,但与上下文不能形成 逻辑关系。故选E。【38题详解】本段谈到:如果你总是说“Ive no idea of it”,这会让别人觉得你对他们的问题不足够关心,或者你没有足够的知识去回答。当人们问问题时,他们想要答案。由此可知本段主题句应选C,表示“永远不要回答我不知道”。【39题详解】本题属于段中句。本空后文谈到:你可以这样说:“我正在处理一件事,过会儿给你说,好吗?”或者“我不想给你出个拙劣的主意,容我来帮你找找答案。”有这个信息可知,本空选G,表示:如果你被当场问住了,你不必马上回答。【40题详解】本空属
84、于段中句。本段主题句谈到:在书面交流中,信息一定要清晰。本空前面谈到:在你发送电子邮件或任何形式的书面交流之前,至少读一遍,以确保信息是清晰的。由此本空选F,表示:如果你不确定信息是否清楚,在你发送之前让别人读一下。【点睛】七选五题目主要考查学生综合的英语逻辑思维能力。一篇好的短文,不仅在内容上要前后一致,而且还要语篇结构清晰,上下文逻辑意义严谨。内容的前后一致体现在段内及语篇内话题的自然过渡。语篇结构主要体现为:文章是总分结构,还是按时间或空间顺序发展的,还是辩证三段论的编排的。逻辑意义的严谨最主要的可以通过代词、连词和副词等形式来体现。例如本文通过看首段及后续段落首句可知:是总分总的形式。
85、本题中的第一题和第三题就是利用段首句与段落内容的一致性解题。当空格位于段中时,就要首先考虑上下句单词呼应。例如第二题turn your head与选项E中的Always look the person in the eye呼应,第四题中的say something like与选项C中的answer呼应,第五题中的Written forms of communication can be tricky 与选项F中的have someone else read it呼应。所以拿到一篇文章,同学们首先要根据篇章类型与空格位置推断使用什么方法解题,有助于加快解题速度。【解析】这是一篇记叙文。一对81岁
