26、从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。21Experts think that_recently discovered painting may be_Picasso.Athe;/ Ba;the Ca;/ Dthe; a答案D句意:专家们认为近来发现的那部绘画作品可能是毕加索的作品。句中painting前有修饰语recently discovered,所以此处的painting是特指,故其前用定冠词the;第二个空后的Picasso本来是专有名词,指“毕加索”其人,但是在本句中,它指的是“一部毕加索的作品”,所以其前用不定冠词a,这实际上是专有名词具体化的使用。22Stri

27、ct measures have to be_to protect_children from family abuses. Aadapted;adopted Badopted; adopted Cadjusted;adjusted Dattached; adopted 答案B考查动词辨析。句意:应该采取严格措施来保护那些被收养的遭受家庭虐待的孩子。第一空中的adopt意为“采用; 采取”,第二空中的adopt意为“收养”。adapt“适应”;adjust“调整”;attach“连接,加”。 23What worries her most is that her daughter,who is

28、 twenty years old,is not interested in anything and doesnt have a(n)_aim of life.Aspecific Bridiculous Cnegative Dallergic答案A考查形容词的意思辨析。specific意为“确切的;特定的”,句中是说她女儿没有确切的人生目标。ridiculous荒谬的;negative消极的;allergic过敏性的。24The local government has taken some effective measures,_at cutting down the cost durin

29、g the tough economy.Apointing Bapproving Cmanaging Daiming答案D考查动词的意义和固定搭配。aim at意为“以为目的”,句中是说政府采取措施的目的是降低开销。用aim的现在分词形式和at搭配,用作状语,表示目的。25Does the young tall man standing there_the company? No.The company is_his father. Ahave possession of;in the possession of Bin possession of;in the possession of C

30、take possession of;in possession of Dhave possession of;in possession of 答案Ahave/take possession of.拥有; in possession of拥有,占有,介词短语,以人作主语;in the possession of.“为所有”,介词短语,以物作主语,故选A项。26_work has been done to improve the peoples living standard. ALarge amounts of BA good many CA great deal of DA large n

31、umber of 答案C由句中主语work为不可数名词这一特性可以排除B、D两个选项,因为a good many,a large number of后只可以修饰可数名词。而A项虽可以修饰不可数名词,但其谓语动词的单复数应和amounts保持一致,所以只有a great deal of可以修饰不可数名词,又和谓语动词has been done保持一致。 27.After a twohour talk,she_the truth of the report. Awas persuaded B. was believed in Cwas convinced of D. was advised答案C句

32、意:两个小时的交谈之后,她相信了那个报告的真实性。convince sb of sth“使某人确信某事”的被动形式为sb be convinced of sth。 A项应该改为:was persuaded of。28Im going to the post office. _!I need to mail a letter. Could you do it for me? AHow exciting B. What a coincidence CHow lucky D. Thats good 答案BHow exciting!多么令人兴奋啊!What a coincidence!多巧的事啊! H

33、ow lucky!多么幸运啊!Thats good !太好了!。根据对方说要去邮局,而自己需要邮寄一封信,想让对方帮忙寄出可知,对方还没有同意帮忙,故A、C、D三项不符合语境。29There are_modern art styles,but without the Impressionists,many of these painting styles_.Ascores of; might not exist Btwo scores of; would not have existed Cscore of; might exist Dtwo scores; would have existe

34、d 答案A句意:如今,现代艺术风格有好几十种,然而如果没有印象派,那么这许多不同的风格就不可能存在。 score作“二十”讲时,表示准确的数量,score前加数字,后面的of可省略;scores of许多,大量。后半部分由without引导的介词短语是一个暗含的非真实条件,主句用虚拟语气:would/could/should/might动词原形。30Today they are accepted as the beginning of_we call“modern art”Awhat Bwhere Cwhich Dthat 答案A此处是what引导的宾语从句,what在宾语从句中作宾语。31T

35、he girl is more beautiful_than in her photographs. Ain the flesh Bflesh and bloodCin person D. in flesh 答案A句意:这个女孩本人要比照片上漂亮得多。in the flesh本人;flesh and blood血肉之躯,亲人;in person 亲自。32The book_reading is worthy of_.Aworthy; being bought Bworthy; buying Cworth; being bought Dworth; buying答案Cbe worth doing

36、 be worthy of being donebe worthy to be done。前面的worth reading作the book的定语,相当于which is worth reading。 33.They have_carefully the time and money needed to complete the project. Apicked out Bleft out Cfigured out Dtaken out 答案C句意:他们已经仔细计算出要完成这个项目所花费的时间与金钱。pick out挑选;leave out遗漏;figure out计算出;take out拿出

37、。34We published the book intended to_mainly to teachers and students of Senior Grade 3 in the coming new term.Aappeal Battach Clink Drefer答案A考查动词的语境意义。appeal to(对某人)有吸引力;(使某人)感兴趣。attach to属于;link to把和连接起来;refer to参考;涉及。35When shall we meet? _.Any day is OK with me. AIts up to you BAll right CThats a

38、ll right DThat depends 答案AIts up to you由你来定。第二节完形填空 (共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从3655各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。Thanksgiving Day was near. The first grade teacher gave her class a fun assignmentto draw a picture of_36_for which they were thankful.Most of the class might be_37_economically di

39、sadvantaged, but still many would_38_the holiday with turkey and other traditional goodies of the season. These, the teacher thought, would be the_39_of most of her students art.

40、of misery,_41_and unhappy. As other children played at breaks, Douglas was likely to stand close by her side.

41、 Just an empty hand.His abstract image captured the_45_of his peers. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers_46_turkeys.

The little boy looked away and murmured, “Its yours, teacher.”She recalled the_51_she had tak

44、heyll remember the hand that_55_.Brushing aside a tear, she went on with her work.【语篇解读】感恩节临近了,有位一年级老师给班上的学生布置了一项有趣的作业画出他们想感谢的东西。道格拉斯画的是什么呢?36A.anything Bsomething Cnothing Deverything 答案B与第43空后面的“draw a picture of something for which he was thankful”相照应。37A.suggested Baffected Cencouraged Dconsider

45、ed 答案D许多学生经济条件不好。此处是指老师认为这些学生的经济状况不好,所以选D项“认为”。A项意为“建议,暗示”;B项意为影响;C项意为“鼓舞”。 38A.celebrate Bshare Clike Davoid答案A尽管经济条件不好,但很多学生还是会在庆祝感恩节时吃火鸡和其他一些传统的合时令的、好吃的东西。39A.purposes Bsubjects Cpersons Dexamples 答案B老师认为这些东西会是学生们绘画的主题subjects。40A.good Bencouraging Cdifferent Dexciting 答案C根据下一段第一句话可知。41A.merry Bn

46、aughty Cweak Dlively 答案C根据本句话中的misery以及and unhappy可推知。42A.behind Bbeside Cbefore Daround 答案A一个人只能猜想他那双忧郁的眼睛背后所隐藏的痛苦。43A.hoped Basked Cforced Dpersuaded 答案B根据第一段内容可知是老师要求(asked)学生们画一幅画的。44A.gift Bperson Chand Dwonder 答案C根据下文中的“Just an empty hand.”可知。45A.thought Bdescription Crespect Dimagination 答案D根

47、据下句话“Whose hand could it be?”可知学生们在猜测或想象。 46A.raise Bneed Cbuy Dsell 答案A农场主饲养(raise)火鸡。47A.look at Bcare forCtake away Ddrive off答案Bcare for(照顾),意思刚好与protect并列。48A.always Balmost Cusually Dtherefore 答案B学生们一直在讨论着这个手可能是谁的,直到老师几乎已经忘记这个学生本人了。 49A.Before BNow that CSince DWhen答案D当其他学生继续欣赏别的作品时。 50A.stare

48、d Baimed Cpaused Dglanced 答案C根据下句中的“bent down”(弯腰)可知,此处应该指老师走到Douglas的桌旁并停了下来(paused)。 51A.chance Bforms Cways Dtimes 答案D老师回想起曾经牵着他的手四处行走的时刻。52A.seldom Boften Csoon Dmuch 答案B她曾经不止一次地说过。how often强调动作发生的频率;how soon表示要过多久。53A.thankful Bcalm Cpleased Dcomfortable答案A Douglas对老师的手最为感激。与上文相照应。 54A.could Bm

49、ust Cshould Dmight 答案D实际上,人们可能很少说“谢谢”。本句话是推测语气,表示可能性不大时常用might。could not表示“不可能”,语气较强。must not用来表示禁止的语气;should not表示“不应该”。55A.moves on Bsticks aboveCreaches out Dputs out 答案C但他们总会记住曾经伸出的帮助过他们的手。第三部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。AShe is widely seen as proof t

50、hat good looks can last forever. But, at nearly 500 years of age, time_is_catching_up_with_the_Mona_Lisa.The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo da Vinci (莱昂纳多达芬奇) in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫博物馆) where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel

51、on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,” the museum said. Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the worlds most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current (现在的)ch

52、emical state.Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery of her smile. “It is very interesting that when youre not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University

53、.“Its because direct vision (视觉) is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows. Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, unt

54、il it was eventually sold to Frances King Francis I in 1519.In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it to Italy. The painting was sent back to France two years later. During World War , F

55、rench hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.【语篇解读】 随着岁月的流逝,名画“蒙娜丽莎”已受到了损坏。她还有一些秘密等待人们去揭开。56The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa_.Ais losing its value Bis bein

56、g damaged after so many yearsCis getting more valuable with years passing Dwill rot away答案B语意理解题。首先,由转折词but判断,本句的意思应和文章前面所说的“美貌是永恒的”意义相反。后面又介绍说“蒙娜丽莎”的健康状况随着岁月的流逝在恶化,画板已变形,因此断定此处的意思是指随着岁月的流逝,名画“蒙娜丽莎”已受到了损坏。57Experts havent any repairs on the Mona Lisa because_.Ait is now in a poor chemical stateBthey

57、 dont know how to replace the wooden panelCthey dont have the materials Da Vinci usedDthey are afraid itll be done further damage答案D推理判断题。文章第三段介绍专家们对名画“蒙娜丽莎”也不敢轻举妄动,原因是他们也不清楚当时达芬奇绘画所使用的颜料以及这幅画现在的化学状况,因此可推断出他们没有对画做修复是因为怕弄巧成拙,进一步损害这幅名画。58The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen_.Aby indirect vision

58、 Bat a distance Cby direct vision Din shadows答案A细节理解题。文章第四段提到,人们“正视”时,往往看不到“蒙娜丽莎”的微笑,原因是当时达芬奇是在暗处作的画,因此只有人们“不正视”时,才能看到她的微笑。59Which of the following is TRUE about Mona Lisa? AIt was once taken away and hidden up by German forces. BIts painter himself loved it greatly and always kept it in a shade. CM

59、ona Lisa stops smiling when you look at her wanting to see her smiles. DKing Franc I bought it and planned to return it to Italy. 答案C细节理解题。由文章倒数第二段可以排除A项;根据第四段中的“Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him.”可排除B项;选项D与文章内容不符,故答案为C。 BNot all awards are as noble as the Nobels.

60、Even though most countries have a system for recognising, honouring and rewarding people who have done something good in their countries, there are now hundreds of awards and awards ceremonies for all kinds of things.The Oscars are probably the most famous, a time for the (mostly) American film indu

61、stry to tell itself how good it is, an annual opportunity for lots of big stars to give each other awards and make tearful speeches. But its not only filmsnow there are also Grammies, Brits, the Mercury Prize and the MTV and Q awards for music. In Britain, a writer who wins the Booker prize can expe

62、ct to see their difficult, literary novel hit the bestseller lists and compete with“The Da Vinci Code”for popularity. The Turner Prize is an award for a British contemporary artisteach year it causes controversy by apparently giving lots of money to artists who do things like display their beds, put

63、 animals in glass cases orthis yearbuild a garden shed.Awards dont only exist for the arts. There are now awards for Sports Personality of the Year, for European Footballer of the year and World Footballer of the Year. This seems very strangesometimes awards can be good to give recognition to people

64、 who deserve it, or to help people who dont make a lot of money carry on their work without worrying about finances, but professional soccer players these days certainly arent short of cash!Many small towns and communities all over the world also have their own awards ceremonies, for local writers o

65、r artists, or just for people who have graduated from high school or got a university degree. Even the British Council has its own awards for“Innovation in English Language Teaching”Shakespeare never won a prize, nor did Leonardo da Vinci or Adam Smith or Charles Dickens.It would be possible to say,

66、 however, that in the past, scientists and artists could win“patronage”from rich peoplea king or a lord would give the artist or scientist money to have them paint their palaces or help them develop new ways of making money. With the change in social systems across the world, this no longer happens.

67、 A lot of scientific research is now either funded by the state or by private companies. Perhaps award ceremonies are just the most recent face of this process.However, there is more to it than that. When a film wins an Oscar, many more people will go and see it, or buy the DVD. When a writer wins t

68、he Nobel Prize, many more people buy their books. When a group win the MTV awards, the ceremony is seen by hundreds of thousands of people across the world. The result? The group sell a lot more records.Most awards ceremonies are now sponsored by big organisations or companies. This means that it is

69、 not only the person who wins the award who benefits,but also the sponsors. The MTV awards, for example, are great for publicising not only music, but also MTV itself! On the surface, it seems to be a“winwin”situation, with everyone being happy, but let me ask you a questionhow far do you think that

70、 publicity and marketing are winning here, and how much genuine recognition of achievement is taking place?【语篇解读】 各种名目的颁奖越来越多,但他们是否得到了大众的认可?60Which of the following awards often confuses the public by giving a prize to people who do unusual things? AThe Turner Prize. BThe Booker Prize.CThe Mercury P

71、rize. DThe Oscars.答案A细节理解题。题干中的confuses the public与第二段中最后一句中的causes controversy同义,题干中的如unusual things 与此句中的do things like.a garden shed同义,由此可知A项正确。 61From the fifth paragraph we can infer that“patronage”is perhaps_.Aan official position in the government Bthe works of ancient scientists and artists

72、Cthe professional qualification for a post Dsupport and encouragement 答案D词义猜测题。根据此段意义及句中的关键词win,give the artist or scientist money可知,patronage指“资助,支持”。 62Which of the following questions does the fifth paragraph mainly give the answer to? AHow does the social system in history develop across the wor

73、ld? BWhy can someone win a prize and award not someone else? CWhy have all these awards and award ceremonies appeared recently? DWhy did Shakespeare,Leonardo da Vinci,Adam Smith and Charles Dickens never win prizes? 答案C段落大意题。作者在此段中指出,在过去,科学家、艺术家会得到富人的资助,而当今情况已大不一样,现在科学研究一般由政府和公司资助,一部电影获奖之后,前去观看的人就多,

74、作家获奖之后,人们就去买他们的书,一个音乐团体获奖之后,人们就愿意去买他们的唱片,是社会体系的变化使诸多奖项逐渐涌现。 由此可知此段主要回答的问题是C项。63At the end of the text,the writer shows concern about whether_.Apeople are really being given credit for what they have done Bpeople are happy to do something good for their countries Cit is worthwhile to launch so many a

75、wards Dso many awards will continue to be given around the world答案A推理判断题。作者在文章最后一段说,表面上这(颁奖)是一种双赢的局面,皆大欢喜, 紧接着作者向读者提出问题:宣传和市场获利多少,人们认同你所取得的成就的程度有多深,这些你们了解多少?言外之意就是人们所付出的是否真的得到了回报,是否得到大众的认可。CLand Art, sometimes referred to as Earth Art or Earthworks, is a form of art which involves using physical lan

76、dscapes to create art, taking art out of the museum and into the outside world.

79、tty. It is possible to use plants. In all cases, Land Art is immovable. Land Art is designed to evolve(逐步形成), change, and eventually decay (衰落). Thats one of the biggest differences between Land Art and most of the art one sees in the museums. Some works of art can exist only for a few hours or days

80、. Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they evolve and decay over time, which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artist. 【语篇解读】 本文向我们介绍了一种古老的艺术形式地景艺术。64From Paragraph 1,we can learn that_.
