58、troyed is a threat to biodiversity and the people who use that biodiversity, The overwhelming threat is that a lot of carbon goes into the atmosphere,可知Thomas说任何森林的破坏都是对生物多样性和利用生物多样性的人们的威胁。并强调最严重的威胁是大量的碳排放到大气中。根据Antonio的话“In the midst of the global climate crisis, we cannot afford more damage to a m
59、ajor source of oxygen and biodiversity. The Amazon must be protected/可知Antonio说在全球气候危机的背景下,我们无法承受对氧气和生物多样性这一主要来源的更多破坏,亚马逊森林必须被保护。根据两人的话可知亚马逊森林对于保护生物多样性和应对气候变化方面发挥着重要的作用,由此推知亚马逊森林大火会造成严重的后果。故选B项。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段Data from the National Institute for Space Research (INPE) Brazilian Amazon have decreas
60、ed something between 20 and 30 percent compared to the last 12 months,可知今年1月至8月,巴西森林火灾的数量与去年同期相比迅速增加了82%。INPE表示,2019年前8个月,全国登记在案的森林火灾共有71497起,高于2018年同期的39194起。与过去12个月相比,巴西亚马逊地区的森林面积减少了20%到30%。第四段的这些数字很直白了显示了亚马逊森林火灾越来越多,亚马逊地区的森林面积不断减少,作者列出这些数字就是展示亚马逊森林的减少,故选A项。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据文章内容可知亚马逊热带雨林地区的火灾增多,科学家和
61、环保组织担心这会加剧气候变化危机,威胁生物多样性。与亚马逊地区,气候变化,生物多样性等有关,那么这篇文章最后可能来自于“自然与地理”板块。故选D项。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。On March 17 the color green will spread all around the world in celebration of St Patricks Day.

69、een on this day, as the color is associated with Ireland.可知传统上,爱尔兰人在这一天穿着绿色的东西 ,因为这个颜色与爱尔兰相关联。根据后文Usually these jokes will be about Irish stupidity, their famous thirst for alcohol, or their fame for telling tall (untrue) tales.可知通常这些笑话都是关于爱尔兰人的愚蠢,他们出名的对酒精的渴望,或者他们以讲假话而出名。承上启下,D项(圣帕特里克节的另一个传统是让非爱尔兰人拿
70、爱尔兰人开玩笑。)切题。D项中的make jokes about the Irish与后文的关于爱尔兰人的笑话相呼应。故选D项。【37题详解】根据前文These characteristics are all based on the most common Irish stereotypes (成见):that the Irish are hot-tempered drinkers who love to fight and will do anything to avoid a days work.可知这些玩笑都是基于最常见的对爱尔兰的成见爱尔兰是暴躁的饮酒者,他们喜欢战斗,将尽一切可能避
71、免一天的工作。根据后文These stereotypes may have rung true back in the 19th century when they started, but theyre far from true today, with the exception, perhaps, of the drinking.可知这些刻板印象在19世纪刚开始的时候可能听起来是正确的,但在今天却远非如此,也许除了喝酒。承上启下,A项(然而,真正的笑话是这些关于爱尔兰的负面的刻板印象仍然存在。)切题。故选A项。【38题详解】根据前文Today, the Irish are admired

100、义,谓语动词也要用单数。全文为一般现在时,此处也要用一般现在时,故填is。【62题详解】考查不定冠词。team是可数的,根据句意,此处泛指“一个计算机科学队伍”,所以空格处要填一个不定冠词。computer为读音以辅音音素开头,要用不定冠词a。故填a。【63题详解】考查形容词性的物主代词。句意:不过,有一个来自马里兰大学帕克分校的计算机科学团队正在通过(教机器人)运用它们过去的行为得来的经验来帮助机器人表现得更好。根据句意,此处表达的是“它们的”过去行为,故填their。【64题详解】考查不定式。短语be able to do为固定搭配,意为“能够做某事”,所以空格处要填不定式,故填to an
101、alyze。【65题详解】考查介词。句意:如果你想弄明白你的位置,你可以拍一张你周围环境的照片,这个设备会告诉你你在哪里。根据语境,此处表达的是想“弄明白”自己的位置,figure out为固定搭配意为“计算出,弄明白”符合句意,故填out。【66题详解】考查名词。句意:如果你想弄明白你的位置,你可以拍一张你周围环境的照片,这个设备会告诉你你在哪里。空格处由your修饰应该填一个名词,所给词surrounding的名词为surroundings,意为“周围环境”,符合句意,故填surroundings。【67题详解】考查限定性定语从句。分析可知空格处引导限定性定语从句,先行词dynamic v
102、ision sensors指物,空格处在从句中做主语,应该用that或者which引导这个定语从句,故填that或which。【68题详解】考查副词。空格处修饰动词work要用副词,故填similarly。【69题详解】考查现在分词作状语。句意:其背后的机制和人眼的机制类似,向机器人大脑发送不间断的信号,(机器人大脑)记录和存储信息,形成相当于现场体验的体验。分析可知本句的谓语动词是works, form在句中做结果状语,form与其逻辑主语“向机器人大脑发送不间断的信号,(机器人大脑)记录和存储信息”这件事之间是主动关系,要用其现在分词形式,故填forming。【70题详解】考查形容词的比较
103、级。句意:这种功能的实现让机器人离人类更近了。根据语境,此时是表达机器人跟人类更近了。要用所给形容词的比较级,故填closer。【点睛】选择引导定语从句的关系词要考虑以下几点:(1) 一看先行词的意义,即分清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点还是原因(如指物时不能用who或whom,指人时通常不用which等)。(2) 二看关系词的句法功能,即分清关系词是担任什么句子成分,是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等(如作定语通常用whose,有时也用which;作状语要用when, where, why等关系副词。(3) 三看定语从句的种类,即分清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句(如that和why
104、通常不引导非限制性定语从句)。比如本7小题。在分析空格处引导限定性定语从句后,发现缺一个关系词引导这个定语从句。找出先行词dynamic vision sensors,先行词指物,空格处也就是关系词在从句中做主语,应该用that或者which引导这个定语从句,故填that或which。第四部分写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)71.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两,每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(),并在其下面写出该加的词。删除:把多余

I was really exciting to hear that, because of she is, my best friend. Though we went to different middle
106、 school last year, we still keep in touch each other now. I am indeed looking forward to see her this weekend. After all, it had been six months since our last meeting. I miss the days when we were together but shared our secrets. We can soon meet again, that is the best news for me this week.【答案】a
107、anmyself meexciting excited去掉because of中的ofschool schoolstouch 后加withsee seeinghad hasbut andthat which【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者昨天收到好朋友的邀请信,去朋友的新家度周末,作者表达了和好朋友之间的深厚友谊,并且非常期待这次会面。【详解】1. 考查冠词。Invitation是以元音音素开头的,应用an来修饰,故将a改为an。2. 考查代词。Ask sb to do sth,让某人去做某事,sb作为ask的宾语,应该用宾格形式,故将myself改为me。3. 考查形容词。Ex
108、citing为令人感到激动的,一般说事物,而excited一般说人感到激动的,本句为人感到激动,故将exciting改为excited。4. 考查连词。Because和because of 都表示因为,because后面接的是句子,because of 后面接名词,代词和动名词结构,she is my best friend为句子,故去掉because of中的of。5. 考查名词。句意:尽管我们去年去的是不同的中学,但现在我们仍然保持联系。根据句意,我们去的不同的学校,school为可数名词,应用复数形式,故将school改为schools。6. 考查固定搭配。句意:尽管我们去年去的是不同的
109、中学,但现在我们仍然保持联系。保持联系,固定短语keep in touch with,故touch 后加with。7. 考查非谓语动词。Look forward to中的to为介词,后应接名词,代词和动名词结构,故将see改为seeing。8. 考查时态。句意:毕竟,我们上次见面已经有六个月了。根据时间状语since last meeting,可知本句,应用现在完成时,故将had改为has。9. 考查连词。句意:我怀念我们在一起并且分享秘密的日子。根据句意,前后两句构成的是并列关系,故将but改为and。10. 考查非限制性定语从句的连接词。that is the best news for
110、me this week为非限制性定语从句,对前半句进行补充说明,非限制定语从句连接词不能用that,故将that改为which。【点睛】关于代词that和which的用法区别:在定语从句中,当先行词是指物时,关系代词which可以由that代替,如果which不在介词之后,也可省略。但两者之间还有一定的区别,需要注意以下情况:1.that仅用在限制性定语从句中,通常不用逗号隔开,作宾语或介词宾语时,that 可以省去;2.which既可用在限制性定语从句中,作宾语或介词宾语时,which可以省去,也可用在非限制性定语从句中;3.当先行词是不定代词或被它们修饰时,要用that,不用which,
111、作宾语时可以省去;4.当先行词被形容词的最高级形式所修饰时,要用that, 不用which,作宾语时可以省去;5.当先行词被序数词或the very,the only,the last修饰时,要用that,不用which,作宾语时可以省去;6.当先行词被the same修饰时,用that表示同一件物品,用as表示相类似的一件物品,不能用which。7.当先行词既指人又指物时,只能用that,不能用which;8.当关系代词在定语从句中作表语是,只能用that,也可以省去,不能用which;9.为避免与which重复使用时,要用that; 10.关系代词直接放在介词后面时,要用which; 11
112、.which还可以用作关系限定词,后跟名词,that则不能这样用;12.引导非限制性定词从句时,一般要用which,不用that。小题10就是引导非限制性定语从句时,不用that,一般用which。第二节 书面表达(满分25分)72.假定你是李华,某英文杂志正在举行主题为“未来的学习模式”的征文活动,请你用英语 写一篇短文参赛。内容主要包括:1.课程选择模式网络课程;因人而异;自由选择等。2.课堂模式虚拟学校;虚拟教室等。3.作业模式个性化。参考词汇:virtual虚拟的 virtual- reality school虚拟现实的学校 individual个性化的注意:1.词数100左右;2.可
