Part 3 Reading and Writing (第三部分读写) VI. Reading Comprehension (阅读理解) Choose the best answer (根据文章内容，选择最恰当的答案) My all-time favourite films about space Apollo 13 (1995) When Tom Hanks announces “Houston, we have a problem”, you know you’re in for a thrilling journey. This film is adapted (改编) from the true story of the Apollo 13 Mission to the moon. One of the rocket’s oxygen tanks explodes and as a result the three-man crew have to fight against all the difficulties to bring their spaceship home. Of course we know they make it but that doesn’t make it any less exciting to watch. It gets a little sentimental at the end, but after what they’ve been through, they deserve a few tears of joy. Avatar (2009) When it comes to action-packed blockbusters (大片), James Cameron’s films are masterpieces, and the sci-fi thriller Avatar is no exception. Forget little green aliens, Cameron’s aliens are blue and super cool. Mankind has attacked the planet Pandora because of its natural resources, and Pandora’s (alien) inhabitants are fighting back. Cameron’s Pandora is breathtaking and the eco-message is a reminder to all of us of how important it is that we take care of our own planet. WALL-E (2008) Only Disney could produce a film about environmental destruction that manages to be light-hearted and fun. When the film starts, the Earth is a mess as a result of mankind’s greed and the last humans have escaped in a giant spaceship into outer space. They’ve left behind an army of robots to clean away the rubbish in the hope that one day humans can return. WALIL-E is one of these robots but his daily routine is interrupted by the arrival of EVE, a robot sent to see what progress has been made, WALL-E falls in love, but will EVE return his love and between them, can they create hope for the human race? Of course, this delightful and entertaining animated film is aimed at kids but it can be equally enjoyed by adults. The Martian (2015) I’ve saved the best till last. Matt Damon plays astronaut Mark Watney, who is part of a space mission to explore Mars. He gets caught up in a huge storm and the rest of his crew, deciding that he must be dead, return home without him. Watney must somehow survive everything the planet can throw at him and try to find a way of making contact with his base back on Earth. Two things set this film apart from the rest: its stunning special effects and Damon’s memorable performance. 39. What does the underlined word “sentimental” probably mean? A. Overemotional. B. Hopeless. C. Interesting. D. Relaxing. 40. Which film involves (涉及) a character left on his own in space? A. Apollo 13. B. WALL-E. C. Avatar. D. The Martian. 41. Wall-E’s daily job is ________. A. producing a film about environmental destruction B. cleaning away the rubbish on the earth C checking the progress of rubbish cleaning D. helping humans travel to outer space in a spaceship 42. Which of the following is NOT true? A. In Apollo 13, the three-man crew finally succeed in returning back to earth. B. Wall-E is an animated film for all ages. C. Avatar involves a fight between two races. D. Watney’s crew members make contact with him from the base on earth. 43. What lesson can we learn from Avatar? A. We need to hold our breath on Pandora. B. We shouldn’t attack other planets. C. We should take good care of our own planet. D. Natural resources are really important.. 44 We can read this passage on a/an _________. A. personal blog B. novel collection C. advertisement D. education magazine Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage (选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文) A Wonderful World of P’s and J’s Are you more of a “P” person or a “J” person? You might be wondering what I’m talking about. These two labels have their roots in the popular Myers & Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) test. The test produces a four-letter result. The last letter is either “P” for Perceiving (感知) or “J” for Judging. It divides people into two camps ____45____ how they prefer to organize their outside world. Many people around me have described me as a classic “Judging” type. I am, after all, keen on plans and schedules. For example, I even time my walk from the office to the nearest metro station and keep a record of when trains usually roll in. On most days, a train arrives just as I hit the platform, and this brings me a great deal of ____46____. I appreciate those who share my preference for planning, but I’ve also met many “Perceiving” types. Years ago, I went to climb Mount Hua in Shanxi with some friends. As a “Judging” person, I planned carefully beforehand. I thought about what to do if it rained. What if there were no snacks available and what if my phone and camera ran out quickly? I ____47____ packing my backpack with ten bottles of water, plenty of mini-bread, five raincoats and as many as three power banks. On the day of the hike, two of my friends set out, to my surprise, ____48____. Halfway through the journey, they got thirsty and hungry and had to rely on me for food and water. “Thanks, mate, you’re a lifesaver,” one of them said between bites of my mini-bread. Working and traveling with people of different personality types can be challenging at times. But leaving complaints aside, I have to admit that those with a “P” on their MBTI test are not without advantages. They are often more creative and resourceful (善于随机应变的). While I would often ____49____ when things don’t go according to plan, these people are usually cool as cucumbers. And just imagine a world where everyone fell neatly into either the “Judging” or “Perceiving” camp. ____50____ truly is the spice (趣味) of life. The mix of different personalities certainly adds to it. 45. A. famous for B. based on C. made up of D. such as 46. A. time B. money C. satisfaction D. sadness 47. A. ended up B. got tired of C. looked forward to D. took up 48. A. kind-hearted B. absent-minded C. empty-handed D. weak-willed 49. A. struggle B. apologize C. arrange D. compete 50. A. Passion B. Fashion C. Variety D. Friendship Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通 顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给) Everybody’s Tweeting With the words “just setting up my tweet”, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey launched a site that would change how we communicate forever. Twitter was originally created as a messaging system for a podcasting website, but it takes on a life of its own as people realize it o____51____ them the power to connect with millions of people instantly. But what are we using it for, and just how is Twitter changing the way we do things? Perhaps the greatest effect Twitter has had is on breaking news. Before Twitter, news had to get the a____52____ of a journalist, who then had to make sure the news was accurate and true before finally broadcasting it on the radio or TV. These days a____53____ who happens to be in the right place at the right time with a Twitter account can post news the second it happens. With retweets it can be half around the world in seconds. A perfect example of this was when a US flight made an emergency landing in the Hudson River in New York City. “There’s a plane in the Hudson. I’m on the ferry going to pick up the people. Crazy!” is how eyewitness Janis Krums broke the story to the world with this Tweet and a photo of the unusual event. Young people have always loved to follow their pop idols, and Twitter has made it a whole lot easier. Before the Internet, teenagers used to join the fan clubs of their idols and write letters to their heroes. If they were l____54____ two weeks later they’d get a reply written by the club secretary. Today’s teenagers don’t need to wait. By following their idols on Twitter they get all the news the minute it happens. They get to hear what they had for breakfast, what they did the night before, what they’re thinking as they sit waiting for a plane. They get to hear it d____55____ from their idols themselves. Twitter allows people who think the same way to get t____56____ and do something about the things they care about. They can share information organize campaigns and put p____57____ on governments and big businesses to change. It allows people to stand up to things such as cyber bullying, sexism and racism. Twitter has given the man and woman on the street the power to make a difference. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle Professor George Challenger and his friend LordJohn Roxton, with a reporter and some local guides (one of whom is called Gomez), travel up the Amazon River to find a plain. Challenger claims (声称) he has visited the plain before, and that there are prehistoric creatures living there. Also with them is another professor who dislikes Challenger and doesn’t believe his claims. The reporter narrates (叙述) the story. The very next day we did actually make our start upon this remarkable exploration. We found that all our stuff fitted very easily into the two canoes, and we divided our members, six in each, in the interests (利益) of peace, of putting one Professor into each canoe. At dawn and at sunset the monkeys screamed and the parrots started making their high-pitched noise, but during the hot hours of the day only the loud noise of the insects, like the beat of a distant surf, filled the ear, while nothing moved among the serious views of huge tree-trunks, fading away into the darkness which held us in. And yet there were signs that even human life itself was not far from us in those mysterious dark corners. On the third day out we were aware of a strange, deep, rhythmic beat in the air, coming and going on-and-off throughout the morning. The two boats were moving within a few yards of each other when first we heard it, and our guides froze, as if they had been turned to bronze, listening very carefully with expressions of terror upon their faces. “What is it, then?” I asked. “Drums,” said Lord John, carelessly, “War drums. I have heard them before.” “Yes, sir, war drums,” said Gomez. “Native people, aggressive, not friendly; they watch us every mile of the way; kill us if they can.” “How can they watch us?” I asked, staring into the dark Gomez shrugged (耸肩) his broad shoulders. “The native people know. They have their own way. They watch us. They talk the drum talk to each other. Kill us if they can.” By the afternoon of that day—my pocket diary shows me that it was Tuesday, August 18th—at least six or seven drums were beating from various points. Sometimes they beat quickly, sometimes slowly, sometimes in obvious question and answer, one far to the east breaking out in a high-pitched beat, and being followed after a pause by a deep roll from the north. There was something incredibly nerve-shaking in that constant noise, which seemed to shape itself into the words: “We will kill you if we can. We will kill you if we can.” That night we tied our canoes with heavy stones for anchors (锚) in the centre of the stream, and made every preparation for a possible attack. Nothing came, however, and with the dawn we pushed upon our way, the drum-beating dying out behind us. 58. The two professors sat in the same canoe, didn’t they? __________________________________________________ 59. How many kinds of sound did they hear altogether during their trip? __________________________________________________ 60. How did the guides react and feel when the drums started? __________________________________________________ 61.

Choose the best answer (选择最恰当的答案) 1. ________ study says that going to ________ bed late is harmful to our health. A. /; the B. A; / C. A; the D. The; the 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：一项研究表明，晚睡对我们的健康有害。 考查冠词。a/an是不定冠词，表示泛指，a用于以辅音音素开头的单词前面，an用于以元音音素开头的前面；the是定冠词，用于特指。第一个空格，一项研究，是泛指，而且study是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用a；第二个空格，go to bed“上床睡觉”，是固定词组。故选B。 2. This story is_________ simple English. My little sister can read it. A. for B. in C. with D. by 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个故事是用简单的英语写的，我妹妹能读它。for为了， in在……里面，用；with有，用； by被；根据My little sister can read it.可知是用简单的英语，in用，指用什么语言；with用，指用什么工具；故选B。 3. Their plants don’t grow very well, but ____ look really good. A. we B. our C. ours D. ourselves 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：他们的植物长得不好，但我们的看起来很好。A. we我们，人称代词的主格；B. our我们的，形容词性的物主代词；C. ours我们的，名词性的物主代词；D. ourselves我们自己，反身代词。分析句子结构可知，本题缺少的是主语，可以做主语的是人称代词的主格或名词性的物主代词，故排除B/D；根据Their plants don’t grow very well他们的植物长得不好，可知，该句话是指我们的植物看起来很好。而不是我们（we）看起来很好。因此用ours=our plants。故选C。 4. My grandpa knows the history and medical of many plants. A. wealth B. price C. value D. cost 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：我爷爷知道许多植物的历史和药用价值。A. wealth财富；B. price价格；C. value价值；D. cost费用。根据句意，结合选项，可知C选项符合题意，故答案选C。 5. ____volunteers will be needed for 2020 Beijing Winter Olympic Games. A. Two thousand of B. Two thousands of C. Thousand of D. Thousands of 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：2020年北京冬奥会将需要数千名志愿者。thousand前面有具体的数字时，用单数形式；表示不确定的数目时，thousand用复数形式，前面不能有数字，并且与of连用。故答案为D。 6. —Do you know where the last two pictures went? —A millionaire bought ________ of them. He thought they were worth. A. either B. each C. none D. both 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：---你知道最后两幅画去了哪里吗？---一个百万富翁买了它们两个。他认为它们是值得的。both 两者都, either 两者之一，none没有一个人(或事物)，each每一个，这里想表达的意思是百万富翁把“两个都”买了，不能选B，因为each侧重个体，这里侧重的是“两个都”，不强调个别的情况，故选D。 【点睛】both, either, neither, all, any, none的用法与区别： 这些词都可用作代词或形容词。其位置都在be 动词之后，行为动词之前或第一助动词之后。both (两者都)，either(两者中任何一个)，neither (两者都不)。以上几个词的使用范围为两个人或物。both与复数连用，either与单数连用。all (所有的，全部的人或物)，any (任何一个)， none (都不)。 以上几个词的使用范围为三者以上。故both的反义词为neither；all的反义词为none。 7.

A. needn’t B. mustn’t C. shouldn’t D. can’t 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：如今，中国人购物时不必带太多钱，因为他们经常使用支付宝或微信支付。 考查情态动词。A. needn’t不必；B. mustn’t禁止；C. shouldn’t不应该；D. can’t不能。根据题干结合句意可知，横线上应该填写needn't，构成“中国人购物时不必带太多钱”，其余三个选项和句意不符，所以都被排除，故答案选A。 8. —Many products made in China are very popular in the US. —Yeah. Americans can ________ avoid buying Chinese products. A. nearly B. mostly C. hardly D. widely 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——许多中国制造的产品在美国非常受欢迎。——是的，美国人几乎无法避免购买中国产品。 考查副词辨析。nearly几乎；mostly主要地；hardly几乎不；widely广泛地。根据“Many products made in China are very popular in the US.”可知，很多中国制造的产品在美国很受欢迎，因此美国人几乎不能避免买中国产品。故选C。 9.

A. terribly B. terrible C. more terrible D. more terribly 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：他唱歌不好听，跳舞更糟糕。 考查形容词的比较级。A. terribly糟糕地、可怕地，副词原级；B. terrible糟糕的、可怕的，形容词原级；C. more terrible更糟糕的，terrible的比较级；D. more terribly更糟糕地，terribly的比较级。设空处前面有even，表示递进，说明比起唱歌他跳舞跳的更糟糕，这里暗含比较级，所以用比较级形式，排除A、B选项。前半句谓语动词是sings，行为动词，所以用副词修饰；而后半句谓语动词是is，是系动词，所以后面应用形容词形式，排除 D选项；故选C。 10. It takes much effort and time to cast for dogs, ________ to me the rewards are worth it. A. so B. or C. but D. for 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：照顾狗要花费很多精力和时间，但是对于我来说，这些回报是值得的。 考查连词词义辨析。so因此；or或；but但是；for因为。根据“It takes much effort and time to cast for dogs, … to me the rewards are worth it.”可知，前后句是转折关系，空格处应填but，表示转折，故选C。 11.

A. has been B. has got C. has reached D. has arrived 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：这位教授上个星期三到的南京。他在这里待了10天了。get, reach, arrive都有“到达”的意思，它们都是瞬间性动词不能与时间段连用，for 10 days时间段。be there意为“在那里”，表示状态。故选A项。 12. It suddenly began to rain when the students a picnic in the park. A. are having B. were having C. have D. would have 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：学生们在公园野餐时，突然下起雨来。 考查句子时态。A. are having现在进行时；B. were having过去进行时；C. have一般现在时；D. would have过去将来时。When引导时间状语从句，主句动作发生的时间在从句的动作这段时间内发生的（主句时间短，从句时间长），主句一般使用一般过去时，从句使用过去进行时；如果从句动作发生的时间在主句的动作这段时间内发生的（从句时间短，主句时间长），从句一般使用一般过去时，主句使用过去进行时；根据句意可知选B。 13. The wolves killed two-thirds of the sheep in that area and the rest _______ rescued in time. A. is B. are C. was D. were 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：这些狼杀死了那个地区三分之二的羊，其余的及时被救了。is用于主语是单数时，一般现在时态；are用于主语是复数时，一般现在时；was是is的过去式；were是are的过去式。根据句中的killed可知，这句话使用了一般过去时，先排除A和B；主语the rest代指“剩余的羊”，是复数，故应选D。 14. —All of my classmates have passed the PE test. —________ exciting the news is! A. What B. What an C. How D. How an 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我们班所有人都通过了体育考试。 ——多么激动人心的消息！ 考查感叹句。根据“...exciting the news is!”可知，本句的中心词是exciting，为形容词，the news“消息”为主语，符合“How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语！”的结构，需用how来引导。故选C。 15. Children often imagine ________ the unexpected things when opening the mystery boxes. A. get B. to get C. getting D. got 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：孩子们在打开神秘盒子时，经常会想象得到意想不到的东西。 考查非谓语动词。get得到，动词原形；to get动词不定式；getting动名词或现在分词；got动词过去式。根据语境可知，此处考查“imagine doing sth.”意为“想象做某事”，所以应该用动名词getting。故选C。 Complete the following passage with the words or phrases in the box.

Reading Comprehension (阅读理解) Choose the best answer (根据文章内容，选择最恰当的答案) My all-time favourite films about space Apollo 13 (1995) When Tom Hanks announces “Houston, we have a problem”, you know you’re in for a thrilling journey. This film is adapted (改编) from the true story of the Apollo 13 Mission to the moon. One of the rocket’s oxygen tanks explodes and as a result the three-man crew have to fight against all the difficulties to bring their spaceship home. Of course we know they make it but that doesn’t make it any less exciting to watch. It gets a little sentimental at the end, but after what they’ve been through, they deserve a few tears of joy. Avatar (2009) When it comes to action-packed blockbusters (大片), James Cameron’s films are masterpieces, and the sci-fi thriller Avatar is no exception. Forget little green aliens, Cameron’s aliens are blue and super cool. Mankind has attacked the planet Pandora because of its natural resources, and Pandora’s (alien) inhabitants are fighting back. Cameron’s Pandora is breathtaking and the eco-message is a reminder to all of us of how important it is that we take care of our own planet. WALL-E (2008) Only Disney could produce a film about environmental destruction that manages to be light-hearted and fun. When the film starts, the Earth is a mess as a result of mankind’s greed and the last humans have escaped in a giant spaceship into outer space. They’ve left behind an army of robots to clean away the rubbish in the hope that one day humans can return. WALIL-E is one of these robots but his daily routine is interrupted by the arrival of EVE, a robot sent to see what progress has been made, WALL-E falls in love, but will EVE return his love and between them, can they create hope for the human race? Of course, this delightful and entertaining animated film is aimed at kids but it can be equally enjoyed by adults. The Martian (2015) I’ve saved the best till last. Matt Damon plays astronaut Mark Watney, who is part of a space mission to explore Mars. He gets caught up in a huge storm and the rest of his crew, deciding that he must be dead, return home without him. Watney must somehow survive everything the planet can throw at him and try to find a way of making contact with his base back on Earth. Two things set this film apart from the rest: its stunning special effects and Damon’s memorable performance. 39. What does the underlined word “sentimental” probably mean? A. Overemotional. B. Hopeless. C. Interesting. D. Relaxing. 40. Which film involves (涉及) a character left on his own in space? A. Apollo 13. B. WALL-E. C. Avatar. D. The Martian. 41. Wall-E’s daily job is ________. A. producing a film about environmental destruction B. cleaning away the rubbish on the earth C. checking the progress of rubbish cleaning D. helping humans travel to outer space in a spaceship 42.

B. We shouldn’t attack other planets. C. We should take good care of our own planet. D. Natural resources are really important.. 44. We can read this passage on a/an _________. A. personal blog B. novel collection C. advertisement D. education magazine 【答案】39. A 40. D 41. B 42. D 43. C 44. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了几部作者最喜欢的太空相关的电影。 【39题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“It gets a little sentimental at the end, but after what they’ve been through, they deserve a few tears of joy.”可知，结尾有点感伤，但在他们经历了这些之后，他们值得流下几滴喜悦的眼泪。所以划线单词“sentimental”的意思是“多愁善感的”，与“overemotional”意思相近。故选A。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The Martian (2015) He gets caught up in a huge storm and the rest of his crew, deciding that he must be dead, return home without him.”可知，其他人认为他死了，所以他被留在了太空。故选D。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“WALL-E (2008) They’ve left behind an army of robots to clean away the rubbish in the hope that one day humans can return. WALIL-E is one of these robots but his daily routine is interrupted by the arrival of EVE,”可知，Wall-E的日常任务是清洁地球上的垃圾。故选B。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The Martian (2015) Watney must somehow survive everything the planet can throw at him and try to find a way of making contact with his base back on Earth.”可知，这里是指Watney要自己寻找办法与地球的基地取得联系，而不是他的队友从地球的基地去联系他。所以选项D是不正确的。故选D。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Avatar (2009) Cameron’s Pandora is breathtaking and the eco-message is a reminder to all of us of how important it is that we take care of our own planet.”可知，我们从《阿凡达》这部电影学到要学会好好保护我们的星球。故选C。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，该文是介绍了几部作者最喜欢的太空相关的电影，这种文章适合在个人博客上发表。故选A。 Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage (选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文) A Wonderful World of P’s and J’s Are you more of a “P” person or a “J” person? You might be wondering what I’m talking about. These two labels have their roots in the popular Myers & Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) test. The test produces a four-letter result. The last letter is either “P” for Perceiving (感知) or “J” for Judging. It divides people into two camps ____45____ how they prefer to organize their outside world. Many people around me have described me as a classic “Judging” type. I am, after all, keen on plans and schedules. For example, I even time my walk from the office to the nearest metro station and keep a record of when trains usually roll in. On most days, a train arrives just as I hit the platform, and this brings me a great deal of ____46____. I appreciate those who share my preference for planning, but I’ve also met many “Perceiving” types. Years ago, I went to climb Mount Hua in Shanxi with some friends. As a “Judging” person, I planned carefully beforehand. I thought about what to do if it rained. What if there were no snacks available and what if my phone and camera ran out quickly? I ____47____ packing my backpack with ten bottles of water, plenty of mini-bread, five raincoats and as many as three power banks. On the day of the hike, two of my friends set out, to my surprise, ____48____. Halfway through the journey, they got thirsty and hungry and had to rely on me for food and water. “Thanks, mate, you’re a lifesaver,” one of them said between bites of my mini-bread. Working and traveling with people of different personality types can be challenging at times. But leaving complaints aside, I have to admit that those with a “P” on their MBTI test are not without advantages. They are often more creative and resourceful (善于随机应变的). While I would often ____49____ when things don’t go according to plan, these people are usually cool as cucumbers. And just imagine a world where everyone fell neatly into either the “Judging” or “Perceiving” camp. ____50____ truly is the spice (趣味) of life. The mix of different personalities certainly adds to it. 45. A. famous for B. based on C. made up of D. such as 46. A. time B. money C. satisfaction D. sadness 47. A. ended up B. got tired of C. looked forward to D. took up 48. A. kind-hearted B. absent-minded C. empty-handed D. weak-willed 49. A. struggle B. apologize C. arrange D. compete 50. A. Passion B. Fashion C. Variety D. Friendship 【答案】45. B 46. C 47. A 48. C 49. A 50. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了MBTI测试中的“P”和“J”的两种性格类型。 【45题详解】 句意：它根据人们喜欢组织外部世界的方式，将人们分为两个阵营。 famous for因……而出名；based on以……为基础，依据；made up of组成；such as例如。根据“how they prefer to organize their outside world”可知，以此为依据。故选B。 【46题详解】 句意：在大多数日子里，火车正好在我登上站台的时候到达，这给我带来了极大的满足感。 time时间；money钱；satisfaction满足；sadness伤心。根据句意可知，当火车到达时间与作者预计的一样时，她会有一种满足感。故选C。 【47题详解】 句意：最后，我在背包里装了十瓶水、很多迷你面包、五件雨衣和多达三个充电宝。 ended up最后；got tired of疲倦；looked forward to期待；took up占用。根据“packing my backpack with ten bottles of water, plenty of mini-bread, five raincoats and as many as three power banks.”可知，最后，我在背包里装了十瓶水、很多迷你面包、五件雨衣和多达三个充电宝。此处是表达“最后”的意思。故选A。 【48题详解】 句意：在徒步那天，我的两个朋友空手出发，这令我很惊讶。 kind-hearted热心的；absent-minded无脑的，走神的；empty-handed空手的；weak-willed意志薄弱的。根据“Halfway through the journey, they got thirsty and hungry and had to rely on me for food and water.”可知，他们什么都没带。故选C。 【49题详解】 句意：当事情不按计划进行时，我常常会很纠结，而这些人通常都很冷静。 struggle奋斗，抗争；apologize道歉；arrange安排；compete竞争。根据“these people are usually cool as cucumbers”可知，作者与这些人不同，会感到纠结。故选A。 【50题详解】 句意：多样性确实是生活的调味品。 Passion激情；Fashion时尚；Variety多样性；Friendship友谊。根据“The mix of different personalities certainly adds to it.”可知，此处是指性格的多样性。故选C。 Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通 顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给) Everybody’s Tweeting With the words “just setting up my tweet”, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey launched a site that would change how we communicate forever.

But what are we using it for, and just how is Twitter changing the way we do things? Perhaps the greatest effect Twitter has had is on breaking news. Before Twitter, news had to get the a____52____ of a journalist, who then had to make sure the news was accurate and true before finally broadcasting it on the radio or TV. These days a____53____ who happens to be in the right place at the right time with a Twitter account can post news the second it happens. With retweets it can be half around the world in seconds. A perfect example of this was when a US flight made an emergency landing in the Hudson River in New York City. “There’s a plane in the Hudson. I’m on the ferry going to pick up the people. Crazy!” is how eyewitness Janis Krums broke the story to the world with this Tweet and a photo of the unusual event. Young people have always loved to follow their pop idols, and Twitter has made it a whole lot easier. Before the Internet, teenagers used to join the fan clubs of their idols and write letters to their heroes. If they were l____54____ two weeks later they’d get a reply written by the club secretary. Today’s teenagers don’t need to wait. By following their idols on Twitter they get all the news the minute it happens. They get to hear what they had for breakfast, what they did the night before, what they’re thinking as they sit waiting for a plane. They get to hear it d____55____ from their idols themselves. Twitter allows people who think the same way to get t____56____ and do something about the things they care about.

(p)ressure 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了推特的主要作用。 【51题详解】 句意：推特最初是作为播客网站消息系统而创建的，但随着人们意识到它使人有能力立即与数百万人建立联系,它也有了自己的生命。offer sb sth表示“提供某人某物”，此处指推特赋予人与其他人联系的能力，又因此处为陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时。故填(o)ffers。 【52题详解】 句意：在推特出现之前，新闻必须引起一个记者的注意，记者必须确保新闻的准确性和真实性，然后才能在广播或电视上播出。get the attention of sb表示“引起某人的注意”，故填(a)ttention。 【53题详解】 句意：如今，不论谁碰巧在正确的时间出现在正确的地点，并拥有推特账户，就可以在新闻发生的那一刻发布新闻。本句与上文构成转折关系，表示任何人都可以发布新闻，因此用不定代词anyone做定语从句的先行词，故填(a)nyone。 【54题详解】 句意：如果他们幸运的话，两周后，他们会收到俱乐部秘书的回复。根据were可知，空处缺少表语形容“they”，根据语意可知收到回信是幸运的。故填(l)ucky。 【55题详解】 句意：他们可以直接从他们的偶像那里了解到信息。此处缺少副词修饰动词“hear”，表示“直接地”，故填(d)irectly。 【56题详解】 句意：推特允许志同道合人聚在一起并做一些他们在乎的事情。get together表示“聚在一起”，故填(t)ogether。 【57题详解】 句意：他们可以共享信息、组织活动并督促政府和大企业做出改变。空处缺少名词，put pressure on sb表示“督促某人做某事”，故填(p)ressure。 Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle Professor George Challenger and his friend LordJohn Roxton with a reporter and some local guides (one of whom is called Gomez), travel up the Amazon River to find a plain. Challenger claims (声称) he has visited the plain before, and that there are prehistoric creatures living there. Also with them is another professor who dislikes Challenger and doesn’t believe his claims. The reporter narrates (叙述) the story. The very next day we did actually make our start upon this remarkable exploration. We found that all our stuff fitted very easily into the two canoes, and we divided our members, six in each, in the interests (利益) of peace, of putting one Professor into each canoe. At dawn and at sunset the monkeys screamed and the parrots started making their high-pitched noise, but during the hot hours of the day only the loud noise of the insects, like the beat of a distant surf, filled the ear, while nothing moved among the serious views of huge tree-trunks, fading away into the darkness which held us in. And yet there were signs that even human life itself was not far from us in those mysterious dark corners. On the third day out we were aware of a strange, deep, rhythmic beat in the air, coming and going on-and-off throughout the morning. The two boats were moving within a few yards of each other when first we heard it, and our guides froze, as if they had been turned to bronze, listening very carefully with expressions of terror upon their faces. “What is it, then?” I asked. “Drums,” said Lord John, carelessly, “War drums. I have heard them before.” “Yes, sir, war drums,” said Gomez. “Native people, aggressive, not friendly; they watch us every mile of the way; kill us if they can.” “How can they watch us?” I asked, staring into the dark Gomez shrugged (耸肩) his broad shoulders. “The native people know. They have their own way. They watch us. They talk the drum talk to each other. Kill us if they can.” By the afternoon of that day—my pocket diary shows me that it was Tuesday, August 18th—at least six or seven drums were beating from various points. Sometimes they beat quickly, sometimes slowly, sometimes in obvious question and answer, one far to the east breaking out in a high-pitched beat, and being followed after a pause by a deep roll from the north. There was something incredibly nerve-shaking in that constant noise, which seemed to shape itself into the words: “We will kill you if we can. We will kill you if we can.” That night we tied our canoes with heavy stones for anchors (锚) in the centre of the stream, and made every preparation for a possible attack. Nothing came, however, and with the dawn we pushed upon our way, the drum-beating dying out behind us. 58. The two professors sat in the same canoe, didn’t they? __________________________________________________ 59. How many kinds of sound did they hear altogether during their trip? __________________________________________________ 60. How did the guides react and feel when the drums started? __________________________________________________ 61. Why did the speed of the drums change from one moment to another? __________________________________________________ 62. What did the narrator think the drums were saying? __________________________________________________ 63. Why do you think they tied their canoes in the middle of the stream, not at the side? __________________________________________________ 【答案】58. No, they didn’t. 59. Four. 60. They froze and felt terrified. 61. Because they were in obvious question and answer. 62. We will kill you if we can. 63. Because they wanted to avoid being attacked from the side. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了Professor George Challenger和他的朋友在亚马逊河探险时，发现了神秘鼓声并担心可能遭受当地土著攻击的经历。 【58题详解】 根据“We found that all our stuff fitted very easily into the two canoes, and we divided our members, six in each, in the interests (利益) of peace, of putting one Professor into each canoe.”可知，他们不在同一个独木舟里。故填No, they don’t. 【59题详解】 根据“At dawn and at sunset the monkeys screamed and the parrots started making their high-pitched noise, but during the hot hours of the day only the loud noise of the insects, like the beat of a distant surf, filled the ear, while nothing moved among the serious views of huge tree-trunks, fading away into the darkness which held us in.”及“‘Drums,’ said Lord John, carelessly, ‘War drums. I have heard them before.’”可知，他们听到了猴子的尖叫声、鹦鹉尖锐的噪音、昆虫的嘈杂声和鼓声四种声音。故填Four. 【60题详解】 根据“The two boats were moving within a few yards of each other when first we heard it, and our guides froze, as if they had been turned to bronze, listening very carefully with expressions of terror upon their faces.”可知，当鼓声开始时，导游们僵住了，脸上带着恐惧的表情。故填They froze and felt terrified. 【61题详解】 根据“The native people know. They have their own way. They watch us. They talk the drum talk to each other. Kill us if they can.”及“Sometimes they beat quickly, sometimes slowly, sometimes in obvious question and answer, one far to the east breaking out in a high-pitched beat, and being followed after a pause by a deep roll from the north.”可知，他们用鼓声的速度变化来传递不同的信息，如同一问一答的形式。故填Because they were in obvious question and answer. 【62题详解】 根据“There was something incredibly nerve-shaking in that constant noise, which seemed to shape itself into the words: ‘We will kill you if we can. We will kill you if we can.’”可知，叙述者认为鼓声仿佛说着“如果我们能的话，我们会杀了你们”。故填We will kill you if we can. 【63题详解】 根据“That night we tied our canoes with heavy stones for anchors (锚) in the centre of the stream, and made every preparation for a possible attack.”可知，把独木舟绑在河中央，是为可能的攻击做好一切准备，以避免被从侧面攻击。故填Because they wanted to avoid being attacked from the side.
