If you’re looking to get a jump ahead on the holds from your local library, here are just a few books we ‘re looking forward to. James by Percival Everett Celebrated author Percival Everett gives us Huckleberry Finn from Jim’s point of view. It’s far from a straight re-telling, though. Instead, Everett (but off his 2001 book Erasure being adapted into the film American Fiction) uses the beats of the original story to give us a send up of language and race.(Pub. March.19) The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo This standalone fantasy was inspired by the best-selling author’s own family history. It takes place during the Spanish Golden Age and follows a servant, hiding the fact that she can perform miracles. (Pub. Apr.9) Private Equity by Carrie Sun A memoir (回忆录) about the daughter of Chinese immigrants who ended up becoming an assistant to a billionaire hedge fund founder. It’s an examination of the hustle and tiring lifestyle that spreads American work culture, and the costs of extreme wealth. (Pub. Feh.13) Legacy by Uché Blackstock Uché Blackstock has had a long career in medicine as a doctor and as a professor of emergency medicine. Her account follows her growing up wanting nothing more than to be doctor, and discovering all parts of the systemic issues that lend to poorer health outcomes for Black Americans. (Pub, Jan.23) 1. What do we know about Percival Everett? A. He is famous for film making. B. He wrote James under the name of Jim. C. His works are focused on historical fiction. D. His literary works have significant influence. 2. What is the common characteristic of the last two books? A. They concern Black Americans. B. They are about real account of life. C. They reflect American work culture. D. They focus on unfair phenomenon in society. 3. Which book draws from the writer’s family background? A. James. B. The Familiar. C. Private Equity. D. Legacy. B In a heart-pounding display of courage and quick thinking, a 65-year-old crane operator became an unexpected hero as he rescued a man trapped on top of a towering building engulfed in flames. Glen Edwards, a crane operator from Egham, was expressing his gratitude after a tense rescue operation in Reading last Thursday. Edwards found himself in a challenging situation as he navigated circling winds to save a man trapped by smoke and flames on a building. The dramatic rescue unfolded amid thick black smoke, making visibility nearly impossible When the alarm sounded, Edwards, who had a concrete skip on his crane, wasted no time the moment he spotted the distressed man waving his coat. Employing his experience and knowledge of the area, Edwards attached a metal cage to the crane, carefully considering his options for the rescue. However, the challenging conditions, with smoke sheltering his view, added an extra layer of difficulty to the operation. With a colleague providing guidance and a concerned crowd watching from below, Edwards skillfully operated the crane to rescue the man. The onlookers erupted in cheers and applause as the man was safely lifted to the ground. Reflecting on the intense experience Edwards remarked, “It seemed to pass a long time until the man got inside. The adrenaline (肾上腺素) was pumping.” He admitted to experiencing shaking after the rescue, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. Despite the successful operation, Edwards is yet to meet the man he saved, humorously noting, “He’s got to take me across the road for a drink!” The heartwarming part of this story is the overwhelming support Edwards has received from well-wishers. A fund-raising page was set up to “buy Edwards a beer as a sign of gratitude,” initially aiming for £5,000 but now standing at an impressive ₤9,100. The community’s response has left Edwards deeply moved. He stated, “It means a lot; some of the comments have been absolutely fantastic.” 4. What does the underlined word “distressed” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Brave. B. Painful. C. Enthusiastic. D. Disappointed. 5. Which of the following can best describe Edwards? A Warm and Curious. B. Caring and ambitious. C. Professional and humorous. D. Gifted and generous. 6. What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A. Sharp tools make good work. B. One good turn descries another. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Hope for the best,but prepare for the worst. 7. What is the text probably taken from? A. A diary entry. B. A medical magazine. C. A news report. D. A first-aid essay. C Children of all ages gathered in New York City recently for the International Toy Fair. Hidden among already popular toys were new, high-tech educational products. Toymakers are working to create these products for improving a child’s emotional intelligence. Companies showed off their products last week at New York’s Jacob Javitz Convention Center. PleIQ is a set of plastic toy blocks. It uses visual reality technology to teach words, numbers and other things. Edison Duran directs the company that makes PleIQ. She showed people at the toy fair how virtual images appear on the blocks when they are held in front of a tablet camera. PleIQ has children act as teacher or guide to a companion character. On the other side of the convention center Karen Hu from another company demonstrated an educational robot called Woobo. The robot comes programmed with educational games and activities. Children use its touch-screen face to get them started. Hu described how the robot can help a child who has autism (自闭症). “The child can communicate with Woobo and follow some of the instructions Woobo is giving because he thinks of this as a companion instead of a parent or someone else telling him about certain things.” At the EQtainment stand, sales director Jonathan Erickson explained the company’s toys. “The purpose of all of our products is to develop emotional and social intelligence.” he said. Erickson showed off a board game called “Q’s Race to the Top”. He said the game got his 4-year-old daughter to open up. “The biggest thing is her talking. And that’s the key of all this—getting her feelings expressed out. Like, ‘Hey, what does it feel like to be sad? Or how does it feel like to be happy?’” It remains to be seen whether a game or toy can improve emotional intelligence. But toymakers are doing what they can to help parents in their efforts to raise well-rounded children. 8 How does PleIQ instruct children to learn? A. By playing the role of a companion. B. By giving direct guidance. C. By taking photos with a camera. D. By presenting visual images. 9. What can be inferred about Woobo from Paragraph 4? A. It is programmed to replace teachers. B. It may be good company for kids. C. It can get started automatically. D. It is intended to design games. 10. What does Jonathan Erickson think of his toys? A. They are quite easy to operate. B. They can teach children numbers. C. They help kids express themselves well. D. They can show their emotions clearly. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Toys are made to help to build emotional intelligence. B. Educational toys sell well at the International Toy Fair. C. Toymakers are making profits in education. D. Children celebrate the International Toy Fair. D What images does science conjure up (使浮现) in your mind? You may well be visualizing a laboratory equations (方程式) written on a blackboard. Figures are surrounded by glassware filled with colored liquids. Maybe someone is studying the world under a microscope. But what this scene fails to show is that science isn’t about labs, equipment or highly trained professionals. It is not even a body of knowledge locked away in great minds or kept within textbooks and journals. Instead, it is about having a curious, creative, critical and evidence-based mindset, which means anyone who uses the scientific method can and should consider themselves a scientist. Indeed, many a discovery has been made by amateur scientists. Amateur scientists are helping to shape science. In January 2023 a new study confirmed the theory of amateur archaeologist Ben Bacon who concluded 20,000-year-old cave markings were a lunar calendar. He spent hours decoding (破译) the mysterious writing system, which may predate other similar record-keeping systems by at least 10,000 years. Astronomy has a long history of encouraging input from nonprofessional scientists. Brother and sister team William and Caroline Herschel are among the most well-known. Back down on the ground there is still plenty for the amateur to explore. Mary Anning is one of the most notable amateur Earth scientists. In the early 19th century, Mary Anning unearthed fossils on the beaches of Lyme Regis, Dorset. Despite her limited education, she read as much scientific literature as she could get her hands on and produced detailed technical drawings to record her finds. Unfortunately, the influential Geological Society of London did not allow female members. So Anning was forced to sell her finds to “gentlemen” geologists who passed her work off as their own. 12. Why does the author mention the images in paragraph 1 ? A. To explain what science is. B. To show people’s general opinion of science. C. To introduce how scientists experiment. D. To stress the importance of having scientific equipment. 13. What does the author think of scientific discovery? A. It relies on labs and equipment. B. It is mainly done by professionals. C. It requires an innovative mindset. D. It is irrelevant to amateur scientists. 14. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By making a comparison. B. By following time order. C. By giving an example. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 15. Why did Anning sell her finds to other geologists? A. She sold them for money. B. She considered them unimportant. C. She wanted to pursue higher education. D. She experienced inequality in the scientific field. 第二节 七选五(共5小题:每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Dancers move gracefully, their grass skirts seeming to wave in the soft wind.

It’s far from a straight re -telling, though. Instead, Everett (but off his 2001 book Erasure being adapted into the film American Fiction) uses the beats of the original story to give us a send up of language and race. (著名作家Percival Everett从Jim的角度给我们带来了《哈克贝利·费恩历险记》。然而，这远不是一个直接的重新讲述。相反，Everett (2001年出版的《擦除》被改编成电影《美国小说》)利用原著故事的节奏给我们一种语言和种族的警示。)”可推测，Everett的作品具有显著的影响力。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Private Equity by Carrie Sun”部分中的“A memoir (回忆录) about the daughter of Chinese immigrants who ended up becoming an assistant to a billionaire hedge fund founder.(一本回忆录，讲述了中国移民的女儿最终成为亿万富翁对冲基金创始人的助理。)”以及“Legacy by Uché Blackstock”部分中的“Her account follows her growing up wanting nothing more than to be doctor, and discovering all parts of the systemic issues that lend to poorer health outcomes for Black Americans.(她的故事讲述了她的成长过程，她只想成为一名医生，并发现了导致美国黑人健康状况不佳的系统性问题的各个方面。)”可知，最后两本书《Private Equity by Carrie Sun》和《Legacy by Uché Blackstock》都是关于作者的真实生活经历的。前者是一本回忆录，讲述了华裔移民的女儿成为亿万富翁对冲基金创始人助理的故事；后者则是一位在医学领域有长期职业生涯的医生的自传，讲述了她从小就想成为医生的经历。因此，它们的共同特点是都是关于真实生活经历的叙述。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo”部分中的“This standalone fantasy was inspired by the best-selling author’s own family history. It takes place during the Spanish Golden Age and follows a servant, hiding the fact that she can perform miracles.(这本独立的奇幻小说的灵感来自于这位畅销书作者自己的家族史。故事发生在西班牙黄金时代，主人公跟随一个仆人，隐藏了她能创造奇迹的事实。)”可知，《The Familiar》这本书是基于作者自己家族背景创作的。故选B。 B In a heart-pounding display of courage and quick thinking, a 65-year-old crane operator became an unexpected hero as he rescued a man trapped on top of a towering building engulfed in flames.

The community’s response has left Edwards deeply moved. He stated, “It means a lot; some of the comments have been absolutely fantastic.” 4. What does the underlined word “distressed” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Brave. B Painful. C. Enthusiastic. D. Disappointed. 5. Which of the following can best describe Edwards? A.

(利用他在该地区的经验和知识，爱德华兹在起重机上安装了一个金属笼，仔细考虑了他的救援选择)”、第四段“Edwards skillfully operated the crane to rescue the man.(爱德华兹熟练地操作起重机营救了这名男子)”以及第六段“Despite the successful operation, Edwards is yet to meet the man he saved, humorously noting, “He’s got to take me across the road for a drink!”(尽管手术成功了，爱德华兹还没有见到他救的那个人，他幽默地说：“他要带我过马路去喝一杯！”)”可推知，爱德华兹具备专业技能，并且具有幽默感。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The heartwarming part of this story is the overwhelming support Edwards has received from well-wishers. A fund-raising page was set up to “buy Edwards a beer as a sign of gratitude,” initially aiming for £ 5,000 but now standing at an impressive ₤9,100. The community’s response has left Edwards deeply moved. He stated, “It means a lot; some of the comments have been absolutely fantastic.”(这个故事的感人之处在于爱德华兹得到了来自祝福者的巨大支持。设立了一个筹款页面，“给爱德华兹买一杯啤酒以示感谢”，最初的目标是5000英镑，但现在达到了令人印象深刻的9100英镑。社区的反应让爱德华兹深受感动。他说：“这意味着很多；有些评论非常棒。”)”可知，做了好事的爱德华兹得到了社区人们的筹款和大力支持。由此推知，好人有好报。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Glen Edwards, a crane operator from Egham, was expressing his gratitude after a tense rescue operation in Reading last Thursday.(来自埃格姆的起重机操作员格伦·爱德华兹在上周四雷丁紧张的救援行动后表达了他的感激之情)”以及文章内容可知，本文报道了起重机操作员Glen Edwards拯救了一名被困在失火的高楼楼顶的男子，后来他自己也得到了社区人们的筹款和大力支持。由此推知，文章出自一篇新闻报道。故选C项。 C Children of all ages gathered in New York City recently for the International Toy Fair.

And that’s the key of all this—getting her feelings expressed out. Like, ‘Hey, what does it feel like to be sad? Or how does it feel like to be happy?’” It remains to be seen whether a game or toy can improve emotional intelligence. But toymakers are doing what they can to help parents in their efforts to raise well-rounded children. 8. How does PleIQ instruct children to learn? A. By playing the role of a companion. B. By giving direct guidance. C. By taking photos with a camera. D. By presenting visual images. 9. What can be inferred about Woobo from Paragraph 4? A. It is programmed to replace teachers. B. It may be good company for kids. C. It can get started automatically. D. It is intended to design games. 10. What does Jonathan Erickson think of his toys? A. They are quite easy to operate. B. They can teach children numbers. C. They help kids express themselves well. D. They can show their emotions clearly. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Toys are made to help to build emotional intelligence. B. Educational toys sell well at the International Toy Fair. C. Toymakers are making profits in education. D. Children celebrate the International Toy Fair. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。介绍的是玩具制造商正在为提高孩子的情商努力创造一些玩具，这些玩具可以寓教于乐，让孩子们在玩耍中学到知识，并可以提高孩子的情感表达能力。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中PleIQ is a set of plastic toy blocks. It uses visual reality technology to teach words, numbers and other things.可知，PleIQ是一套塑料玩具积木。它利用视觉现实技术来教授单词、数字和其他东西。由此可知，PleIQ通过呈现视觉图像来指导孩子学习。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中The child can communicate with Woobo and follow some of the instructions Woobo is giving because he thinks of this as a companion instead of a parent or someone else telling him to certain things.可知，孩子可以和Woobo交流，并遵循Woobo给出的一些指令，因为他认为这是一个伙伴，而不是父母或其他人告诉他某些事情。由此可推知，Woobo可能是孩子们的好伙伴。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中The biggest thing is her talking. And that’s the key of all this-getting her feelings expressed out.可知，最重要的是她能说话。而这就是关键——让她表达出自己的感受。由此可推知，Jonathan Erickson觉得他的玩具能帮助孩子们很好地表达自己。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中Toymakers are working to create these products for improving a child’s emotional intelligence.可知，玩具制造商正致力于开发这些产品，以提高儿童的情商。结合本文介绍的是玩具制造商正在为提高孩子的情绪智力努力创造一些玩具，这些玩具可以寓教于乐，让孩子们在玩耍中学到知识，并可以提高孩子的情感表达能力。故A选项“玩具有助于建立情商”符合文章标题。故选A。 【点睛】概括主旨方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。如第四小题，根据第一段中Toymakers are working to create these products for improving a child’s emotional intelligence.可知玩具制造商正致力于开发这些产品，以提高儿童的情商。结合本文介绍的是玩具制造商正在为提高孩子的情绪智力努力创造一些玩具，这些玩具可以寓教于乐，让孩子们在玩耍中学到知识，并可以提高孩子的情感表达能力。故A选项“玩具有助于建立情商”符合文章标题。故选A。 D What images does science conjure up (使浮现) in your mind? You may well be visualizing a laboratory equations (方程式) written on a blackboard. Figures are surrounded by glassware filled with colored liquids. Maybe someone is studying the world under a microscope. But what this scene fails to show is that science isn’t about labs, equipment or highly trained professionals. It is not even a body of knowledge locked away in great minds or kept within textbooks and journals. Instead, it is about having a curious, creative, critical and evidence-based mindset, which means anyone who uses the scientific method can and should consider themselves a scientist. Indeed, many a discovery has been made by amateur scientists. Amateur scientists are helping to shape science. In January 2023, a new study confirmed the theory of amateur archaeologist Ben Bacon who concluded 20,000-year-old cave markings were a lunar calendar. He spent hours decoding (破译) the mysterious writing system, which may predate other similar record-keeping systems by at least 10,000 years. Astronomy has a long history of encouraging input from nonprofessional scientists. Brother and sister team William and Caroline Herschel are among the most well-known. Back down on the ground there is still plenty for the amateur to explore. Mary Anning is one of the most notable amateur Earth scientists. In the early 19th century, Mary Anning unearthed fossils on the beaches of Lyme Regis, Dorset. Despite her limited education, she read as much scientific literature as she could get her hands on and produced detailed technical drawings to record her finds. Unfortunately, the influential Geological Society of London did not allow female members. So Anning was forced to sell her finds to “gentlemen” geologists who passed her work off as their own. 12. Why does the author mention the images in paragraph 1 ? A. To explain what science is. B. To show people’s general opinion of science. C. To introduce how scientists experiment. D. To stress the importance of having scientific equipment. 13. What does the author think of scientific discovery? A. It relies on labs and equipment. B. It is mainly done by professionals. C. It requires an innovative mindset. D. It is irrelevant to amateur scientists. 14. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By making a comparison. B. By following time order. C. By giving an example. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 15. Why did Anning sell her finds to other geologists? A. She sold them for money. B. She considered them unimportant. C. She wanted to pursue higher education. D. She experienced inequality in the scientific field. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人类对科学的普遍看法以及作者认为科学发现需要创新思维，并举例说明。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“What images does science conjure up in your mind? You may well be visualizing a laboratory equations written on a blackboard. Figures are surrounded by glassware filled with colored liquids. Maybe someone is studying the world under a microscope.(科学在你脑海中浮现出什么样的画面？你可能正在想象写在黑板上的实验室方程式。人物被装满彩色液体的玻璃器皿包围。也许有人在显微镜下研究这个世界)”可知，作者在第一段提到这些图像是为了展示人们对科学的普遍看法。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Instead, it is about having a curious, creative, critical and evidence-based mindset, which means anyone who uses the scientific method can and should consider themselves a scientist.(相反，它是关于拥有一种好奇、创造性、批判性和基于证据的心态，这意味着任何使用科学方法的人都可以而且应该认为自己是科学家)”可知，作者认为科学发现需要创新探索思维。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Amateur scientists are helping to shape science. In January 2023, a new study confirmed the theory of amateur archaeologist Ben Bacon who concluded 20,000-year-old cave markings were a lunar calendar. He spent hours decoding the mysterious writing system, which may predate other similar record-keeping systems by at least 10,000 years.(业余科学家正在帮助塑造科学。2023年1月，一项新研究证实了业余考古学家本·培根的理论，他认为2万年前的洞穴标记是阴历。他花了几个小时破译这个神秘的文字系统，它可能比其他类似的记录保存系统早至少一万年)”可知，第3段通过举例展开，说明业余科学家的重要性。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Unfortunately, the influential Geological Society of London did not allow female members. So Anning was forced to sell her finds to “gentlemen” geologists who passed her work off as their own.(不幸的是，有影响力的伦敦地质学会不允许女性成为会员。因此，安宁被迫把她的发现卖给“绅士”地质学家，他们把她的发现当作自己的)”可知，安宁把她的发现卖给其他地质学家是因为她经历了科学领域的不平等。故选D。 第二节 七选五(共5小题:每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Dancers move gracefully, their grass skirts seeming to wave in the soft wind. Their hands make soft flowing movements. This is hula dancing. In Hawaii, hula has been used for hundreds of years to tell stories and to pay respect to nature. Hula was created long before the Hawaiian people created a system of writing. ____16____ Although there are many stories about how hula was invented, some believe that Pele, Hawaii’s goddess of fire and volcanoes, wanted her sisters to dance for her. According to the story, only her sister Hi’iaka danced for the goddess. ____17____ Over the years, both Hawaiians and visitors changed the dances. In the early 1800s, long before Hawaii became part of the United States, missionaries (传教士) traveled there. The missionaries did not approve of hula. Although they tried to persuade the Hawaiian people to stop dancing, the missionaries could not remove hula from Hawaiian culture. ___18___They added these ideas to hula to create new dances. ____19____Huka kahiko uses the same traditional movements and instruments as the ancient Hawaiians. When dancers perform hula kahiko, they dance to traditional musical instruments, such as rattles and drums (拨浪鼓和鼓). ____20____ Modern hula is danced to modern Hawaiian music, which often features the ukulele, an instrument that looks like a small guitar. Dancers wear skirts made from leaves and bracelets (手镯) made from flowers. Today, visitors to Hawaii often go to see hula performances. The gentle, waving movements of the dancers remind them of soft winds blowing through the islands’ palm trees (棕榈树). A. There are two types of hula. B. Hula performances enjoy general popularity. C. In contrast, hula ‘auana is considered modern hula. D. Instead they communicated through dance and song. E. People hold different ideas about the development of hula. F.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了夏威夷呼啦舞的历史，文化渊源，类型及发展。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Hula was created long before the Hawaiian people created a system of writing. (呼啦舞是在夏威夷人创造书写系统很久以前就创造出来的)”可知此处要表达的是夏威夷人在文字出现之前就创造出了呼啦舞，可推理出他们在文字出现之前用舞蹈和歌曲来交流，与D项“Instead they communicated through dance and song.(相反，他们通过舞蹈和歌曲来交流)”表达的含义一致，故选D项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Although there are many stories about how hula was invented, some believe that Pele, Hawaii’s goddess of fire and volcanoes, wanted her sisters to dance for her. According to the story, only her sister Hi’iaka danced for the goddess.(虽然有很多关于呼啦舞是如何发明的故事，但有些人相信火与火山的女神Pele希望她的姐妹们为她跳舞。根据这个故事，只有她的妹妹Hi'iaka为女神跳舞)”可知此处要表达的是Hi'iaka是第一个表演呼啦舞的人，由此可推理出下文说的是她的妹妹Hi'iaka是第一个为女神表演呼啦舞的人，与F项“This sister is said to have been the first person to perform hula.(据说这位妹妹是第一个表演呼啦舞的人)”表达的含义一致，故选F项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“The missionaries did not approve of hula. Although they tried to persuade the Hawaiian people to stop dancing, the missionaries could not remove hula from Hawaiian culture.(传教士不赞成呼啦舞。尽管他们试图说服夏威夷人停止跳舞，但传教士无法将呼啦舞从夏威夷文化中移除)”以及下文“They added these ideas to hula to create new dances.(他们将这些想法加入到呼啦舞中，创造出新的舞蹈)”可知尽管传教士不赞成呼啦舞，但是夏威夷人为呼啦舞增加了新的内容，G项“In addition, Hawaiians began to sail around the world and bring back ideas from other cultures.(此外，夏威夷人开始环游世界，并从其他文化中带回了想法)”说明了夏威夷人为呼啦舞增加的新内容的来源，衔接恰当。故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据下文“Huka kahiko uses the same traditional movements and instruments as the ancient Hawaiians. When dancers perform hula kahiko, they dance to traditional musical instruments, such as rattles and drums.(Huka kahiko使用与古代夏威夷人相同的传统动作和乐器。当舞者表演huka kahiko时，他们会随着传统的乐器起舞，比如拨浪鼓和鼓)”以及“Modern hula is danced to modern Hawaiian music, which often features the ukulele, an instrument that looks like a small guitar(现代呼啦舞随着现代夏威夷音乐起舞，这种音乐经常以尤克里里为特色，尤克里里是一种看起来像小吉他的乐器)”可知此处要分别介绍了古代夏威夷人的呼啦舞与现代呼啦舞，可推理出空白处总体说明有两种类型的呼啦舞，与A项“There are two types of hula.(有两种类型的呼啦舞)”表达的含义一致，故选A项。 【20题详解】 根据下文“Modern hula is danced to modern Hawaiian music, which often features the ukulele, an instrument that looks like a small guitar. Dancers wear skirts made from leaves and bracelets made from flowers.(现代呼啦舞是用现代夏威夷音乐跳的，这种音乐经常以尤克里里为特色，尤克里里是一种看起来像小吉他的乐器。舞者穿着由树叶制成的裙子和由花制成的手镯)”可知现代呼啦舞是用现代夏威夷音乐跳的，使用一种看起来像小吉他的乐器，这是现代音乐的特征。可推理出此处说的是hula auana被认为是现代呼啦舞，与C项“In contrast, hula auana is considered modern hula.(相比之下，hula auana被认为是现代呼啦舞)”表达的含义一致，故选C项。 第二部分 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Now Merda spent another couple of hours wandering among the endless orange trees.
