These zoos were built for the fun of the rich. In China, around three thousand years ago an emperor built a very big zoo. It was about six square kilometers. He gave the zoo an interesting name. He called it “Garden of Intelligence.” The ancient Greeks built zoos, too. They built them so that they could study animals. Students in Greece had to visit zoos as part of their education. 第二部分（笔试共90分） Ⅲ. 完形填空（共20小题，计20分） 第一节：阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，从所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案；使短文连贯完整。 China is a great country with more than 5,000 years of history.

Unluckily，I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time. When I was a little girl，I never dared to ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to. Now，I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere，I would say, "Sorry, I am a stranger here." Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting. When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight! 47. The writer always refuses to give people directions because . A. she's a stranger to the city B. she doesn't know the people C. she has no time to help others D. she's afraid of giving wrong directions 48. A man stopped the writer on the way to . A. sell her something B. ask for the time C. make friends with her D ask for the direction 49. The word "embarrassed" in the last paragraph means " ". A. 尴尬 B. 困惑 C. 激动 D. 拮据 50. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The writer is too shy to give others directions. B. The writer has a very poor sense of direction. C. The writer never got lost when she was young. D. The man was quite nervous when he saw the writer. 【答案】47. D 48. D 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【分析】作者方向感很差，所以从来不敢给别人指路，当人们问路的时候，她就会说她也是生人。但是有一次一个人问的是她工作的地方，她还是像以前那样回答，当两个人再见面的时候，作者感到非常的尴尬。 【47题详解】 推理判断题。根据短文的开头Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them以及短文第三段中So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions可知，作者经常拒绝给别人指示方向是因为她自己方向感很差，怕给别人指错了路。故应选D。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据短文第四段中Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building可知，在作者上班的路上，一个人喊住了她，是想向她问路。故应选D。 【49题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在的句子Imagine how embarrassed I was以及上下文的意思可知，当那个人向作者问路的时候，作者像往常一样说自己也是陌生人，不认识路。但是事实上那个地方是作者工作的地方，因此当他们再见面的时候，作者会感到非常的尴尬。embarrassed尴尬的，故选A。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据短文的开头Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them可知，作者的方向感很差，故B选项是正确的。 【点睛】这篇短文讲述了关于作者的一个很有趣的故事，短文内容简单，比较容易理解。后面的题目设置有细节理解、推理判断和词义猜测题。做细节理解题的时候，我们应先弄清楚题目的意思，并寻找一个关键词，在原文中定位出来，就能找到答案。例如第2小题，我们根据题干中的A man stopped the writer找到原文的第四段可以知道应选C；词义猜测题要根据划线单词所在的句子来判断，有时候也需要根据全文的大意进行判断，这个题目就是这样的，需要根据短文的大意来猜测。根据文意可知，作者给我们讲述了一个很尴尬的故事，因此这个单词的意思是尴尬的。 D 阅读短文，根据短文内容从下面七个选项中，选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺，结构完整。 Boys and girls this summer vacation is the time for you to take your mind off homework and prepare yourself for future life.

The book is about an old fisherman’s hard life. He spent many days on the sea trying to catch a fish, but his hard work turned out to be useless. Day after day, he came back home with nothing in his hands. But he always wore a smile on his face. Finally, on the 85th day, a huge fish turned up and a fight began. The old man finally won the fight against it. However, on his way home, several sharks (鲨鱼) hit the man’s boat and ate the fish he had caught. Few people could accept such a bad situation, but the old man never gave up. The old man thought he could still go back home safely. After all, life could be full of ups and downs at times. I really like the old man. He never gave up. He loved everything in his life, good or bad. Some people think the old man is a loser because he got nothing in the end.

Scientists discovered Coronado C Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily，I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time. When I was a little girl，I never dared to ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to. Now，I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere，I would say, "Sorry, I am a stranger here." Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting. When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions.

It has made a big difference to my life. Now I always look on the bright side of life whatever difficulties I meet. The book is about an old fisherman’s hard life. He spent many days on the sea trying to catch a fish, but his hard work turned out to be useless. Day after day, he came back home with nothing in his hands. But he always wore a smile on his face. Finally, on the 85th day, a huge fish turned up and a fight began. The old man finally won the fight against it. However, on his way home, several sharks (鲨鱼) hit the man’s boat and ate the fish he had caught. Few people could accept such a bad situation, but the old man never gave up. The old man thought he could still go back home safely. After all, life could be full of ups and downs at times. I really like the old man. He never gave up.
