19、xesCjoins Dplays答案与解析：本文是一篇记叙文。作者以拟人的手法，描写了自己在一艘小船的帮助下顺利地渡过一条河的情景，并且刻画了自己对小船依依不舍的感情。作者意在告诉人们世界上的万物都发挥着自己的作用。16B根据前面的“river”以及后面的“and pondered how to cross”可知没有桥。树、花、鸟与过河没有联系。17D根据后面的“and I was pleased with the little boat”可知这里是指一条小船出现了。18A结合前面的“offered to take me across”可知这个小船要帮助作者过河，所以选assist“帮助”。e
20、ncourage“鼓励”；threaten“威胁”，指有可能给他人造成损害；persuade“劝说”，均与语境不符。19C作者正在为如何过河发愁的时候，小船出现了，将帮助他过河，所以他很高兴地开始了行程。slowly“慢慢地”；mysteriously“神秘地”；difficultly“艰难地”，而与后面“pleased”呼应的只有happily。20B由于作者在为过河发愁的时候，有船过来，所以他很高兴，对这个小船给予自己的帮助很感激。upset“沮丧的”；greedy“贪婪的”，它的含义是想获得超出需要的东西，如金钱和食物等；suitable“适合的”，均与语境不符。21D从后面的“one
21、that even spun us around a few times”可知河里水流湍急，小船有几次都被冲得急转弯。fresh“淡的，新鲜的”；clean“干净的”；dirty“脏的”，均不符合语境。22A作者要过河，所以要到达河的对岸，因此选shore。beach“海滩”；mountain“山脉”；village“村庄”，均与语境不符。23C从后面作者不愿意离开这个小船可知，作者认为自己的行程是令人高兴的。tiresome“令人厌烦的”；miserable“痛苦的”；rough“粗糙的”，均与作者的心情不符。24B从上文中作者对小船的感激可知，他不愿意离开这艘小船，因此选B项。attemp
22、t“试图”；refuse“拒绝”，此处作者不是不走，而是从情感上与小船难舍难分，故C项不符合语境；而have to表示“不得不”，与作者的意图矛盾。25D根据上文作者不愿意走可知，他是想在这里多停留一会，故选stay。live“居住”；continue“继续”；settle“定居”，均不符合语境。26B考查上下文暗示。作者虽然想多待一会儿，但是由于远方的大山在召唤着自己，所以作者不得不走，去完成既定的路程。这里的record指“记录”；pace“步伐”；standard“标准”，均与语境不符。27C根据上文的意思，这里是指继续进行下去。28D因为作者必须得走了，所以感到难过。comfort“安
23、慰”；sympathy“同情”；regret“懊悔”，与此时作者的心情不符。29A从前面知道这艘小船帮助作者过了河，所以这里使用guide指它对作者的指引作用。fly“飞”；force“迫使”；tempt“引诱”，均与语境不符。30C作者感激小船的帮助，由此产生爱意。repair“修理”；row“一排”；pity“同情”。均与语境不符。31B作者虽然舍不得离开小船，但是知道小船应有它的恰当的位置，起着它原本应起的作用。shelter“庇护处”；load“负载”；purpose“目的”。32Donly if“只有”；if only“但愿”；what if“要是会怎样呢”；even if“即使”。
24、此处意为：作者即使想带着小船走，它也不可能帮助作者走完其余的路程。33A假如作者带着小船走的话，会妨碍作者的“进程”。preparation“准备”；route“路线”；expectation“期望”，均不符合语境。34Cfollow the path“沿着这条小路”，符合题意。前一段中的“and that it couldnt follow my path to the mountain”有提示。而choose“选择”；block“阻塞”；find“找到”，均与语境不符。35A作者通过小船的启示说明了一个道理：宇宙间的万物携手共创美好未来，所以选A项。mix“(使)混合”；join“连接，接
25、合”；play“玩耍”，均与语境无关。.阅读理解Similar things continuously happened in Haiti and Chile. Thousands of people were buried in the earthquake and lost their lives. What if we could have warned them? People are always trying hard to find a way of preventing building collapsing (倒塌). Better materials and technol
26、ogy help, but are not a solution. Just like humans, a building has its own life circle from “birth” to “death”. If we know when a building is going to collapse, we can repair it in advance or get out before it falls. Now, scientists at the University of Illinois have developed a material that turns
27、red before it breaks. The invention could be used in things like climbing ropes, or bridge supports. The secret behind the colorchanging material is a type of molecule (分子). A molecule is a group of atoms held together by chemical bonds (化学键). Imagine you and your friends standing in a circle, holdi
28、ng hands. Each person stands for one atom, your hands represent the bonds, and the entire circle represents a molecule. If one person lets go of his or her hands, the molecule changes color. The research team put the molecule into a soft material. When the researchers stretched (拉紧) the material, it
29、 turned bright red a few seconds before it broke into two pieces. When they repeatedly stretched and relaxed the material, without breaking it, it only turned a little red. The major problem is, light can get rid of the red color. When the team shone a bright light on the molecule, the broken bond w
30、as fixed, and the color disappeared. If bright light keeps the red color from appearing, the materials warning system will be useless. Scientists still have a lot of work to do before the colorchanging molecule can be used outside the lab.36. The passage mainly about _. A. a way of preventing buildi
31、ngs from breaking down B. a way of warning before buildings collapse C. a series of earthquakes in Haiti and Chile D. a newlydiscovered structure of a molecule37. According to the passage, we can conclude that _. A. scientists have found the life circle of buildings from “birth” to “death” B. there
32、are problems to solve before putting the new material to use C. bright light makes the red color visible to human eyes D. the new material is unlikely to be used in building bridges38. The colorchanging molecule can _. A. remind people to leave buildings before they fall B. help building materials g
33、et stretched if necessary C. prevent the earthquake from killing people D. make building materials much stronger39. The warning system is based on the fact that _. A. red color wont show up when it meets bright light B. a building has its own life circle of “birth” to “death” C. a material with a ce
34、rtain type of molecule can turn red when stretched D. the broken bond will fix itself when a molecule meets bright light答案与解析：地震的频繁发生促成了一种新型材料的研发，这种新型材料可以通过自身某种分子的颜色变化预先发出警报，从而为人们逃脱赢得了宝贵的时间。不过，这种材料仍然处于初期研发阶段，尚未成熟。36B主旨大意题。本文从海地和智利发生地震的事实引出建筑物倒塌前发出预警的话题，下文紧接着介绍了一种在断裂之前颜色会变红但仍处于研发阶段的新型材料，所以本文主要讲的是在建筑物倒塌之前的一种警告方式。37B推理判断题。根据最后一段，尤其是最后一句的内容可知这种新型材料在应用之前还有许多问题需要解决。38A推理判断题。第二段中提到这种新型材料在断裂之前会出现明显的颜色变化，而造成颜色变化的根本原因是一种分子的颜色发生了改变，由此可推断这种能够改变颜色的分子可以提醒人们在建筑物倒塌之前离开。39C细节理解题。结合第二段第三句以及其后的内容可知警报系统依据的是含有一种拉伸时能变成红色的分子的物质。
