11、 he points out，“The most challenging aspect is a fall. How fast we can detect a fall matters because the medical situation worsens quickly. Sometimes people stay on the floor for a long time.

30、n go faster than 80 miles an hour.”以及设空处后一句“The answer is a combination of athletics and science.”可知，上文提到大雪橇的时速，后文则提到答案，说明设空处是一个关于大雪橇速度的疑问句。故选D。2根据设空处前的“That means doing a lot of jumps and sprints. It also means pushing heavy sleds! The push is the crews only chance to add speed.”可知，推雪橇的用意就是加速，而设空处说
31、明其他的工作就是为了保持速度，即防止其他力使雪橇减速。故选G。3根据设空处前一句“The design of the sleds runners(滑板) reduces their friction with the ice.”可知，本段主要是关于滑板设计的说明，且后文提到了弧度太圆的滑板的缺点，可推测本句与后文并列，也是在列举弧度不够好的滑板，F项符合语境，且F项中friction对应上文中friction；Runners对应下文中的They。故选F。4设空处是本段首句，应概括本段大意。根据设空处后一句“The rules state that all runners must be mad
32、e of the same type of steel, and crews may polish them using only approved materials.”可知，本段主要说明的是滑板的打磨问题，同时B选项中polish对应后文中polish。故选B。5根据设空处前一句“Before each race，officials check the temperature of the runners. Runners may not be more than a few degrees warmer than the ice.”可知，滑板的温度不会超过冰面，设空处为本段最后一句，应承

38、rldwide.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。山西大同云冈石窟是世界文化遗产，距今已有1 500多年的历史。文章主要介绍研究人员使用数字技术复制云冈石窟，希望保存这些遗产。解析：1考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意：山西大同的云冈石窟是世界文化遗产，可追溯至1500多年前。根据句意可知，句子陈述客观事实用一般现在时。定语从句先行词history是单数，因此从句谓语动词用单数，与谓语动词date是主动关系。故填goes。2考查时态和主谓一致。句意：云冈的45个大石窟和200多个小石窟中，大约有5.9万尊佛像，是人类文化中无价的财富。根据句意可知，句子陈述客观事实用一般现在时。主语roughly 59,
39、000 figures of the Buddha是复数，所以谓语动词也用复数。故填are。3考查连词。句意：但是由于气候变化和自然灾难的影响，石窟一年年地面临着破坏。上文提到石窟的价值，结合空后“石窟一年年地面临着破坏”可知，此处是转折关系，应用but，句首单词首字母要大写。故填But。4考查形容词。句意：多亏先进的数字技术，研究人员正忙于对云冈石窟进行复制，试图保护这些珍贵的文物。空处修饰名词短语digital technology，应用形容词作定语，advanced意为“先进的”。故填advanced。5考查副词。句意：利用3D激光扫描技术，研究人员将石窟的形状、颜色和其他细节数字记录下
40、来，然后使用3D打印技术进行复制。修饰后文动词record应用副词digitally，作状语。故填digitally。6考查代词。句意同上题。此处指代上文提到的“shapes, colors and other fine details of the grottoes”复数名词，在句中作宾语，应用代词them。故填them。7考查非谓语动词。句意：这项新技术可以让更多的人在距离遥远的情况下接触到文物。固定搭配enable sb. to do sth.译为“让某人能够做某事”。故填to access。8考查名词。句意：2020年6月，浙江大学文物研究所和云冈石窟研究所在杭州的一个展览会上共同“复
41、制粘贴”了云冈石窟第12窟，这是世界上第一个3D打印一比一“复制”的石窟。空处作宾语，表示“展览”应用名词exhibition，不定冠词an提示应用单数。故填exhibition。9考查宾语从句。句意同上题。分析句子结构可知，介词in后缺宾语，所以此处为宾语从句。在宾语从句中，缺“东西；事物”含义作句子的主语，需要用连接代词what引导宾语从句。故填what。10考查非谓语动词。句意：云冈研究人员的尝试是科技帮助保护文化遗产的一个很好的例子。句子的谓语动词为系动词is，所以动词help要以非谓语动词形式出现。非谓语动词help与逻辑主语technology是主动关系，所以用现在分词作后置定语。
