The Cat and the Mouse by Aaron Copland We can hear so vividly different plots and the tune is easily accessible to all listeners.Copland uses the pace and rhythm successfully，which creates the animation in the music.Lots of loud and dissonant(刺耳的)chord is fully applied in the entire piece，giving the “storytelling” nature to the music. The Maid and the Nightingale by Enrique Granados In the music，the maid sings a mournful song to the nightingale as her lover has gone to fight another guy out of jealousy，and eventually dies.After her mournful “song” ends，the last part of the piece is pure bird sound.Granados mainly uses quick and light single notes to paint the melodies of birdsongs. Carnival of the Animals by Camille Saint­Sans The Carnival of the Animals is the most famous work from Saint­Sans.Interestingly，he forbade the work to be published during his lifetime as he felt it did not represent him properly.The different musical techniques and the fast and light rhythm of the full suite truly make this set of works the most typical music for animals. 语篇解读　本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了以动物为灵感创作的四大经典乐曲。 21．What characteristic do The Cat and the Mouse and Carnival of the Animals share? A．Mournful. B．Dynamic. C．Discouraging. D．Peaceful. B　[推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Copland uses the pace and rhythm successfully，which creates the animation in the music.”和最后一段最后一句可知，这两部作品都展示了动态的特征。故选B。] 22．Which work gains its popularity out of the composer’s expectation? A．Catalogue of the Birds. B．The Cat and the Mouse. C．The Maid and the Nightingale. D．Carnival of the Animals. D　[细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后两句可知，《动物狂欢节》的流行出乎作曲家的意料。故选D。] 23．What can we learn from the four classical pieces? A．Each piece of Catalogue of the Birds is named after a French province. B．The tune of The Cat and the Mouse is accepted by all listeners. C．The Carnival of the Animals is the first hit of Saint­Sans. D．The creation of the bird sound in The Maid and the Nightingale is different from Catalogue of the Birds. D　[推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Messiaen uses the ’colour of tones’ at...birdsong among the nature most beautifully.”和第三段中“Granados mainly uses quick and light single notes to paint the melodies of birdsongs.”可知，《少女与夜莺》中鸟儿发出的声音与《鸟类目录》中不同。故选D。] B Ottawa is the capital of Canada.It is the second largest city in Ontario and the fourth largest city in the country. The Centre Block is the main building on Parliament Hill (国会山).There also stand several ceremonial spaces，such as the Hall of Honor and the Memorial Chamber.The present Centre Block is the second copy of the building，after the first was undermined by a big fire in 1916，and it is one of the most recognizable buildings in Canada. Downtown Ottawa is the commercial and economic centre of the city.Most of the buildings are office towers.While most of Ottawa’s high tech industry is based elsewhere，it has an important presence in the downtown center.The downtown also contains a number of apartments，hotels，and the older single family homes and townhouses along its edges (边缘). The National Gallery of Canada is one of Canada’s earliest art galleries.The Gallery has a large and varied collection of paintings，drawings，sculpture and photographs.Although its focus is on Canadian art，it also holds works by some well­known American and European artists. The Rideau Canal is the oldest continuously operated canal (运河)system in North America.At the very beginning，it was used to provide a safe supply and communication route between Montreal and the British naval (海军的)base in Kingston.It remains in use today mainly for people to boat and enjoy themselves，with most of its original structures undamaged.The locks on the system open for navigation (航海)in mid­May and close in mid­October. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了加拿大首都渥太华的主要建筑，商业、经济中心、艺术画廊和北美古老运河的运营情况，帮助读者更多地了解渥太华这座神奇的城市。 24．What does the underlined word “undermined” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Destroyed. B．Overcame. C．Completed. D．Checked. A　[词义猜测题。根据本句的前半句描述“The present Centre Block is the second copy of the building，after the first was undermined by a big fire in 1916...”可以推测，当时的大楼在1916年经历了大火，被大火毁掉了。所以undermine意为“破坏，毁坏”，故选A。] 25．What are the main collections of the National Gallery of Canada? A．Paintings from Europe. B．Sculpture and photographs. C．Drawings by American artists. D．Artworks by Canadian artists. D　[细节理解题。根据第四段“The Gallery has a large and varied collection of paintings，drawings，sculpture and photographs.”可知，加拿大国家美术馆的主要收藏是各种各样的艺术品，有绘画、雕塑和照片。故选D。] 26．The Rideau Canal at present is mainly used for ________. A．public transportation B．pleasure boating C．safe supply D．communication route B　[细节理解题。根据最后一段倒数第二句“It remains in use today mainly for people to boat and enjoy themselves...”可知，现在的里多运河主要是供人休闲。故选B。] 27．What’s the best title for the text? A．Reasons for Visiting Ottawa B．The Long History of Ottawa C．Some Famous Places in Ottawa D．An Unforgettable Trip to Ottawa C　[标题归纳题。根据文章第一段和以下几个段落的描述可知，本文讲述了渥太华的几处著名的地点，选项C适合作本文标题。] C The Chinese government has sped up the protection of the cultural relics in Tibet，spending more than 300 million yuan in 2006 for the protection of some valuable sites，an official said in Beijing Thursday. The money was used to repair some famous Tibetan relic sites such as the Potala Palace，Norbu Lingka and Sagya Monastery，said Shan Jixiang，director of the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. It is reported that there are around 2，000 cultural relic sites in Tibet，among which 35 are under state­level protection，and 216 of them under various levels of government protection. “Although the money given to the protection has been increased，cultural relics protection in Tibet meets great challenges caused by growing numbers of tourists to Tibet，” Shan said. “It is necessary to protect the important cultural heritage in Tibet，considering the tourists flood in Tibet through the Qinghai­Tibetan railway，” Shan said. He suggested that the central government continue to increase investment for cultural relics protection and infrastructure(基础设施)construction in Tibet.Particularly a special institution with a special funding is needed for the protection of the top ten items of Tibetan cultural heritage. “An office should be set up to work out practical protection plans for the top ten Tibetan cultural heritage items，” said Shan. Among them，the Zhaibung Monastery and Panchen Lama’s residence in Xigaze represent the development of Tibet.Jokhang temple，Tibetan Buddhism’s site，shows that Tibet is an inseparable part of China.Naining Temple saw the historical moment when all nationalities of Tibet fought against foreign invasion (入侵)，and Lhagyari Palace showed the development of Tibetan local political power. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了对西藏文物的保护和遇到的困难。 28．It can be learned that ________． A．not all cultural relic sites have been repaired B．Shan Jixiang likes travelling in Tibet C．the money given to cultural relics in Tibet is more than enough D．Tibet attracts more visitors than other areas A　[推理判断题。由文章第二段中的“The money was used to repair some famous Tibetan relic sites such as the Potala Palace，Norbu Lingka and Sagya Monastery...”可知，并非所有的文化古迹都得到了修缮。] 29．What are the challenges of cultural relics protection in Tibet? A．Its remote location. B．The local culture. C．Growing numbers of tourists to Tibet. D．Lack of fund. C　[细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Although the money given to...by growing numbers of tourists to Tibet，”可知游客数量的增多带来了很大的挑战。故选C。] 30．Which of the following is connected with the development of Tibet? A．The Potala Palace. B．Lhagyari Palace. C．Naining Temple. D．Panchen Lama’s residence. D　[细节理解题。由文章最后一段中的“...the Zhaibung Monastery and Panchen Lama’s residence in Xigaze represent the development of Tibet.”可知班禅喇嘛的住处与西藏的发展有关。故选D。] 31．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Cultural Relics in Tibet Are Well Protected B．Cultural Relics Attract Visitors C．Tibet—an Important Destination for Visitors D．Protection and Development A　[标题归纳题。文章首段说中国政府加速了对西藏文化古迹的保护，之后阐述了与之有关的事情，故答案为A。] D You improve your robot’s software by improving its software.Agrim Gupta of Stanford University，however，begs to differ.He thinks you can also improve a robot’s software by improving its hardware.He and his colleagues have invented a way of testing this idea. They brought to their robots，unimals，the principles of evolution (进化)by natural selection.Unimals，with globes for heads and sticks for arms and legs，are software beings interacting with a virtual environment.The environments where they wandered were in three varieties: flat grounds，grounds with hills and steps，and ones that had the complexities of the second sort，but with added objects. To begin with，the unimals were randomly assigned various shapes，but with identical software— derl.Newly created unimals learned to face the challenges in a virtual bootcamp.They were then entered into tournaments in groups.Each group winner was awarded one mutation (变异)—one extra arm or leg，or one extra turning in a joint.The new replaced the oldest unimal and then was assigned to a new group，and the process repeated.About 4，000 varieties of them underwent training. The team were surprised by the diversity of shapes that evolved.Crucially，though，the researchers found the most successful unimals learned tasks in half the time their oldest ancestors had taken，and that those evolving in the toughest grounds were the most successful. In this evolution of unimals’ morphology (形态)to promote the ability to learn，Dr Gupta sees a version of something called the Baldwin effect.In 1896 James Baldwin，a psychologist，argued that minds evolve to make the best use of the morphologies of the bodies.What Dr Gupta has shown，though in software，is that the opposite can also be true — changes in body morphology can improve the way minds work.Even though he held the software constant，it became more efficient at learning as the unimals’ bodies evolved. Whether that discovery can be turned to account in the way robots are developed remains to be seen.But the way of testing is certainly an out­of­the­box idea. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过改进机器人的软件来改进它的软设备。然而，斯坦福大学的阿格里姆·古普塔却不这么认为。他认为还可以通过改进硬件来改进机器人的软件。他和他的同事们发明了一种方法来验证这个想法。 32．How was the test conducted? A．By promoting unimals’ learning. B．By adjusting the environments. C．By proving the evolution theory. D．By stimulating unimals’ mutation. B　[推理判断题。根据第二段“They brought to their robots，unimals...but with added objects.”可知，通过调整环境，来进行试验。故选B。] 33．What turned out to be surprising in the test? A．The number of trained unimals. B．The decline in time for learning tasks. C．The variety of evolved shapes. D．The replacement of old unimals. C　[细节理解题。根据第四段“The team were surprised by the diversity of shapes that evolved.”可知，测试中令人惊讶的是进化出的各种形状。故选C。] 34．What can be concluded from the test? A．Mind evolution affects body shaping. B．Body changes better mind work. C．Hardware changes do not impact software. D．The discovery is useful in robot development. B　[推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“What Dr Gupta has shown，though in software，is that the opposite can also be true — changes in body morphology can improve the way minds work.”可推知，身体的变化使大脑工作得更好。故选B。] 35．What’s the author’s attitude to the finding? A．Negative. B．Objective. C．Indifferent. D．Approving. B　[观点态度题。根据最后一段“Whether that discovery can be... way of testing is certainly an out­of­the­box idea.”可推知，作者对这一发现持客观的态度。故选B。] 第二节(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。 Chopsticks(筷子)come in many different shapes and styles，and have been around since 1200 B．C．E．The utensils(器具)earned their place at the Chinese dinner table around 400 B．C．E．More than 20 percent of the world’s population relies on chopsticks for eating.China alone uses 45 billion disposable(一次性的)pairs per year.__36__ China was the first to experiment with chopsticks nearly 3，000 years ago.__37__ The Chinese used them for cooking since they could dip them into boiling pots of water.Then China’s population boomed.Cooks were forced to conserve resources，which meant chopping foods into tiny bites that used less fuel to cook.Bite sized foods，paired with Chinese philosopher and vegetarian Confucius’ anti­knife beliefs，set up the utensils for widespread adoption beyond China. __38__ Chinese chopsticks，for instance，are long and thick “to facilitate dining around the table，” Ruixi Hu，founder of Lost Plate Food Tours，says.Hu grew up in Chengdu，China，where she first used chopsticks at age 2.She now goes on food tours throughout Asia and she’s found many chopstick varieties. In Japan，where bamboo chopsticks were adopted in 500 C．E．，chopsticks have evolved over time.They’re now particularly fine­tuned for one of Japan’s main foods: fish.“Japanese chopsticks are short and sharp，mainly because the Japanese are good at eating fish，and it is easy to remove fish bones with sharp chopsticks，” Hu says.__39__ That’s why their chopsticks don’t need to be as long. Head over to South Korea where chopsticks look a bit different.__40__ That’s because South Koreans love barbecue.The metal chopsticks won’t burn when diners are barbecuing their meat. A．Chopsticks are different throughout Asian cultures. B．But at that time，they weren’t used as eating utensils. C．There，chopsticks are flat and typically made of metal. D．So how did two sticks start a massive mealtime revolution? E．So why were silver chopsticks gaining popularity overseas? F．They usually eat their own dishes instead of sharing them with others. G．On the contrary，disposable wooden chopsticks were first invented by the Japanese in 1878. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了筷子在不同的亚洲国家有所不同的原因。 36．D　[由空前的内容可知，作为餐桌上不可或缺的器具，筷子的使用是相当普遍的。据此，作为对本段的总结性的句子，应当提出问题：是什么促使筷子使用的这么普遍的。选项D和文意相符合。故选D。] 37．B　[根据空前句和空后句可以推断，空白处讲述的是：在3 000年前人们使用筷子是做什么的。选项B和后面呼应与前文形成转折关系，符合语境。故选B。] 38．A　[结合本段谈到中国的筷子的形状以及本段中“She now goes on food tours throughout Asia and she’s found many chopstick varieties.”可以推测，此处讲述在亚洲国家中，筷子是不同的。选项A符合本段主题。故选A。] 39．F　[结合空后一句“That’s why their chopsticks don’t need to be as long.”可知，空白处讲述日本人的筷子不长的原因以及使用筷子的用途。选项F符合文意，故选F。] 40．C　[结合空前一句“Head over to South Korea where chopsticks look a bit different.”可知，空白处要论述的是在韩国，筷子是什么形状和是什么材料制成的。选项C符合文意。故选C。] 第三部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My dad was a farmer.He never regarded anyone as a __41__．He could really talk to any person，and his favorite thing to do was to __42__ their income.Once we were at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport，and my dad was sitting with me as I was waiting for my __43__.A Russian woman who could not speak a word of English sat next to my dad，but that did not __44__ him.At last，he found out her business，how many children she had and of course how much she made.

A terrible incident happened on a hot summer day.It was so hot a day that nearly every one felt like jumping into the cool water.A little boy simply couldn’t put up with the heat，deciding to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. “Mum，it being so hot，I want to have a swim.” the boy told his mother while walking out. “No，Honey，there has been a warning that an alligator from the park has appeared in the surrounding area.It is dangerous！” said his mother in a loud voice.But the little boy rushed out of the back door like a gust of wind before his mother could stop him. He was in such a hurry to dive into the cool water that he left behind shoes，socks，and shirt as he left. He flew into the water and enjoyed the comfortable feeling that the cool water brought him，not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake，an alligator was swimming toward him.His mother was preparing dinner in the kitchen when suddenly she caught the two getting closer and closer to each other as she was looking out of the window.“Oh，My God！” she couldn’t help crying loudly，getting into a great panic.And then in great fear，she ran toward the water，shouting to her son as loudly as she could all the way，“Alligator，Alligator！” Hearing her voice，the little boy became alarmed and made a U­turn to swim to his mother.However，it was too late.Something horrible was happening. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Paragraph 1： Just as he approached her，the alligator reached him.____________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2： Remarkably，after weeks in the hospital，the little boy survived.___________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 参考范文 Paragraph 1： Just as he approached her，the alligator reached him.From the shore，the mother grabbed her little boy tightly by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs.It seemed as if it were an incredible tug­of­war between the two.The alligator was much stronger than the mother，but the mother was much too devoted to let go.Fortunately，a farmer happened to drive by.Hearing their screams，he raced from his truck，took aim and shot the alligator.Seriously wounded，the boy was rushed to the hospital. Paragraph 2： Remarkably，after weeks in the hospital，the little boy survived.His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal.And on his arms were deep scratches，where his mother’s fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hold onto the son she loved.When asked to show his scars，the boy lifted his legs and then with obvious pride，he said to people coming to see him，“But look at my arms.I have great scars on my arms，too.I have them because my mom wouldn’t let go.” 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
