17、istakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money, but most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim, as a friend, really feel good about it?

18、hen we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back,it is too late. Why do we go wrong with our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meanings. And if we do not really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “Y
19、oure a lucky dog! (你真幸运!)” is he really on your side? If he says, “Youre a lucky guy! ” that is being friendly. But what about “a lucky dog”? There is a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. What he may be saying is that he thinks you dont deserve your luck. “Just think of all
20、the things you have to be thankful for” is another phrase that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem. But this phrase contains the thought that your problem is not at all important.How can you tell the real meaning behind someones w
21、ords? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.

26、rts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49yearold Chinese architect, won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prizewhich is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architectureon February 28.He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the Chin
27、a Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus (校园) of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations.The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors were amazed by the com

The curves (曲线) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into w
29、alls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements (元素)Wangs works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledge of traditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese arc
30、hitecture, said Tadao Ando, the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize.Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. “That is only evidence that traditions once existed,” he said. “Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. They think tradition means old things
31、from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created,” he said. “Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing
32、 what they really are,” said Wang. The study of traditions should be combined with practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said.28Wangs winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are _.A. following the latest world trend B. getting international re

And they arent especially safe around humans, because theyre made out of hard and heavy parts that could be potentially dangerous to their users.So researchers have been working on building soft robots for decades. Theyve taken inspiration from nature, looking

Even if engineers build a silicone (硅酮) body, its still a grand challenge to construct flexible versions of essential parts, such as a source of power.

The word “hotel” dates back to the 1600s and comes from a French word, htel. That word, just like the Eng

80、s. Nicholas died in 340 AD.答案:15BACAB610ABCCA1115BBACC1620BAABC第二部分第一节A【语篇解读】本文的题材为旅游类。文章为那些自行车爱好者介绍了四个骑自行车探索美国首都华盛顿的项目。21答案与解析:A细节理解题。根据第一个项目中的Reserve your spot before availability可知,第一个游玩项目需要预订,所以答案为A项。其他三个项目都没有提及需要预订。22答案与解析:D细节理解题。根据第三个游玩项目中的第二句话(知识渊博的导游会给你讲关于总统、国会、纪念碑和公园的最有趣的故事,让你开心。)可知,在这个游玩项目
81、中你会享受到有趣的故事,所以答案为D项。23答案与解析:D细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的最后一句话(所有的骑手都配备了反光背心和安全灯。)可知答案为D项。B【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。在日常交往中,我们经常会误解他人。本文告诉我们在与他人交往的过程中要观察别人说话的表情、语调、姿态和眼神等,通过观察这些可以辨别出别人的真正想法。24答案与解析:C主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money, but most mistakes are about people.”可知,
82、我们经常犯的错误都是关于人的错误。文章接下来的部分告诉我们如何辨别他人的言外之意。也就是说本文主要告诉我们在与他人交往的过程中如何避免出现错误。25答案与解析:C推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Why do we go wrong with our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meanings. And if we do not really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words.”可知,人们所说的话有时会隐藏他们真实的含义,如果我们没有真正
83、理解,我们可能就会错过真实的含义,这也是我们会和朋友产生误解的原因。26答案与解析:C代词指代题。根据“There is a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself.”可知,在别人说你是幸运儿的时候,实际上可能是有点儿嫉妒的含义的,但是他自己并没有感觉到这一点。故画线词it指的是前句中的a bit of envy。27答案与解析:D推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way
84、he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.”可知,作者建议我们观察别人说话的表情、语调、姿态和眼神等,通过观察这些可以辨别出别人的真正想法。C【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。本文报道了中国建筑设计师王澍在其作品中弘扬中国传统文化,最终荣获素有“建筑学界诺贝尔奖”之称的普利兹克建筑奖。28答案与解析:B考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“Wang Shu,a 49yearold Chinese architect, won the
85、2012 Pritzker Architecture Prizewhich is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architectureon February 28.”可知,中国49岁的建筑师王澍获得了2012年普利兹克建筑奖,即他的作品赢得了国际的认同和肯定,而王澍正是许多正在努力占据建筑领域中心地位的中国优秀建筑师之一,故选B。A项曲解文意。王澍获奖并不意味着中国的建筑设计师正紧跟世界最新潮流;C项和D项均属无中生有,与文中信息不符。29答案与解析:C考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“The style of the campus is qui
86、te different from that of most Chinese universities.”和“The curves(曲线)of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.”可知,中国美术学院象山校区的建筑风格与中国其他大学的校园建筑有很大差异,建筑曲线与山峦起伏完美融合,形成了一道独特的风景。故选C。A项“Its hilly environment”(丘陵环境)曲解文意;B项和D项属无中生有。30答案与解析:D考查细节理解。根据第六段可知,作者引用1995年度同
87、一奖项获得者对王的评价,指出王的作品表现出他对现代建筑和中国传统的深刻理解,并将两者结合,创造出新的建筑风格。故选D。A项曲解文意,是传统与现代元素的融合而非不同形状的混合,B项指中西建筑文化的平衡,C项为时尚技术的运用,均不符合文意。31答案与解析:D考查推理判断。根据最后一段可知,王认为中国的传统应该与实践紧密联系,否则它的再创造就会是不自然的、无意义的。故选D。 A项“Spread them to the world”,属无中生有;B项将其保存在博物馆,属颠倒是非。D【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。美国哈佛大学的科学家们受到章鱼的启发,制造了软体机器人;这种机器人可以用于搜救、探索等行动,
88、比常规机器人更安全;虽然软体机器人的开发和研究尚处在早期阶段,但是这种机器人必将更有利于人类的健康和生活质量。32答案与解析:A细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“The Octobot is a minimal system which may serve as a foundation for a new generation of completely soft, autonomous robots.”可知,“Octobot”是一种可以用作软体机器人基础部件的微型系统;所以“Octobot”的特点是柔软,故A项正确。33答案与解析:D推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知,传统机器人无法在崎岖的地
