Most Famous Libraries in the World
Trinity College Library
Designed by Thomas Burgh, the library is the largest in Ireland. Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years. The original structure only had books on the lower level, but when the library’s shelves were filled in the 1850s, the ceiling was raised to accommodate even more books. Today the Long Room holds 200,000 of the library’s oldest books.
Stuttgart City Library
Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi. Inside it, you’ll find an airy central room, above which sits a multi-story stepped reading room lined with bookshelves. The library towers over the nearby buildings.
Library of Parliament
Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill. Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings.
Rampur Raza Library
Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects. The pink structure that houses the collection today was built in 1904 by Nawab Hamid Ali Khan as a mansion of Indo-European style, The Rampur Raza Library was later shifted to this grand building in 1957.

In the digital age, opportunities are arising for everyone. However, only those putting plans into action can stay ahead. Alexandr Wang is one such example.
Los Alamos National Laboratory was where Alexandr spent his childhood. Both his parents were physicists there. Alexandr, from a young age, had a sharp mind. As a kid, he was regarded as a math wizard (奇才) and competed in national math and computer competitions. Finishing high school, Alexandr entered MIT where machine learning and AI amazed him. He saw the potential (潜力) of AI, and was excited about how it could change the world. But it wasn’t making a real impact. His ambition to set up a company in that field was seeded then.
At 17, he got the role of tech lead at Quora where he met Lucy Guo , with whom Alexandr founded Scale AI, which turned out to be a considerable success. In fact, at that time, there were various opportunities in the tech world. It was hard to decide which road they should go down. Then he and his team decided to take a different approach — instead of following diverse paths, they agreed to focus on one. They went with “imagery, computer vision and other kinds of sensor data”. And that is what made the company’s profits rise quickly. Scale AI has a net worth of about $7.3 billion at present, with Alexandr being the world’s youngest self-made billionaire.
When asked lessons he’d like to share with founders, Alexandr stated there are a number of things. “The top one is always doing things that go with your values and how you want to build a company at the beginning. When you talk to investors (投资者), they’ll contribute advice that may go against your goal. Figure out your focus and what gets you started.”
4. What inspired Alexandr to build Scale AI?
A. The work at Quora. B. His experiences at university.
C. The influence of his parents. D. His talent for math and computer.
5. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. The key to the success of Scale AI. B. Challenges of Alexandr’s career.
C. Alexandr’s great achievements. D. The process of founding Scale AI.
6. Which of the following can best describe Alexandr?
A. Clever and generous. B. Courageous and outgoing.
C. Ambitious and sociable. D. Adventurous and determined.
7. What did Alexandr advise founders to do?
A. Stick to one particular direction. B. Keep an open mind on suggestions.
C. Remain true to the original intention. D. Find a friend to start a company.
C
Livestreaming (直播) through channels such as Amazon Live and QVC is an increasingly popular way to sell goods online. It usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, and someone promotes a product. Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link.
We analyzed (分析) 99451 sales cases on a livestream selling platform and matched them with actual sales cases. In terms of time, that is equal to over 2 million 30-second television advertisements.
To determine the emotional (情绪的) expression of the salesperson, we used two deep learning models: a face model and an emotion model. The face model discovers the presence or absence of a face in a frame of a video stream. The emotion model then determines the probability that a face is exhibiting any of the six basic human emotions: happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear or disgust. For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an off-putting expression usually points toward anger.
We wanted to see the effect of emotions expressed at different times in the sales cases so we counted probabilities for each emotion for all 62 million frames in our database. We then combined these probabilities with other possible aspects that might drive sales — such as price and product characteristics — to judge the effect of emotion.
We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.
A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.
8. What can we know about the livestreaming to sell goods online?
A. It challenges the physical economy. B. It helps big company sell all goods.
C. It is very convenient for the buyers. D. It helps the sellers develop fixed expressions.
9. What does the underlined word “off-putting” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Unhappy. B. Awkward. C. Surprised. D. Frightened.
10. How do customers feel about the seller’s smiling?
A. They feel thankful. B. They feel delighted. C. They feel cheated. D. They feel so tired.
11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. Livestreamers Sell Products Successfully B. Smiling Can Increase the Sales in Reality
C. Emotions and Faces: What’s the Difference D. Expressions Affect Selling Products Online
D
Many years ago, people relied on the sun, the moon and stars to find their way around. Later, the compass was introduced. And now, we have satnav (卫星导航) systems to guide us. A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user’s location. They send information to a receiver, such as a smartphone, to show us where we are.
The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning Satellite System, which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia’s Global Navigation Satellite system, the European Union’s Galileo and China’s own satellite navigation system, Beidou.
On October 18, 2017, an ARJ21-700 plane, which was the first domestically (国内地) produced jet equipped with the Beidou navigation system, successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced abroad, according to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China.
Since its introduction in 2000, the Beidou navigation system has been increasing numbers of applications linked to everyday life, from shared bikes to farming.
When it comes to shared bikes, smart locks that support Beidou chips offer more accurate positioning than others, making it easier to find a bike.
Farmers can use Beidou-enabled tractors to plow (犁) the soil and use unmanned aircraft with Beidou to sow seeds, which can improve efficiency and make better use of resources. Beidou’s farming applications have spread from Heilongjiang Province to Beijing, Liaoning, Shanxi, Hubei and other regions across China.
With its many uses, the Beidou navigation system is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative. “To date, the Beidou system has covered most parts of the Asia-Pacific region, as well as countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road,” said Yang Changfeng, chief designer of the Beidou system.
Today, there are more than 20 Beidou satellites above our heads, and China plans to launch even more this year to expand the Beidou network to better serve the Belt and Road Initiative.
“As Beidou expands its overseas reach, it will be increasingly popular in the logistics (物流) industry,” said Miao Qianjun, Secretary General of the navigation services association. “Ships, for example, can use it to position themselves while sailing across oceans to European countries, no longer limited to Southeast Asian regions in the near future.”
12. What is the purpose of the first two paragraphs?
A. To compare some modern satnav systems.
B. To describe the benefits of satnav systems.
C. To tell us how satnav systems were created.
D. To introduce some satnav systems and their functions.
13. What can we know about the Beidou navigation system according to the article?
A. It was used successfully in a new jet plane. B. It is more powerful than other satnav systems.
C. It was introduced to China on October, 2017. D. It won’t be expanded because it is so powerful now.
14. According to the article, the Beidou navigation system is already widely used for _______.
A. plowing the soil and sowing seeds
B. improving the efficiency of network
C. producing more smart locks for shared bikes
D navigating ships across oceans to European countries
15. What is Miao Qianjun’s attitude toward the future of the Beidou system?
A. Worried. B. Casual. C. Positive. D. Indifferent.
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。
Lying awake for hours before falling asleep is a common problem. Even if you can finally fall asleep, taking too long to fall asleep can lead to too few hours of sleep altogether. ____16____ So people having trouble falling asleep always wonder how they can sleep well.
Parents know from experience that gentle music can help babies fall asleep. Science supports this, showing that children of all ages, from babies to elementary school children, sleep better after listening to comfortable music. Fortunately, children aren’t the only ones who can benefit from gentle music before bedtime. ____17____
Listening to music likely improves sleep for more than one reason. Music can promote sleep directly by affecting your physiology (生理机能). ____18____ Besides, it can also promote sleep by becoming a healthy bedtime habit. Many people can’t fall asleep quickly because stressful and worrying thoughts keep them awake at night. By listening to music, the mind has something else to focus on. With time, the practice of listening to music at bedtime becomes more effective as the brain positively associates music with sleep.
____19____ Studies have looked at many types of music and playlists but there isn’t a clear answer about the best music for sleep. What we do know is that researchers have typically used either a self-made playlist or one that has been designed especially with sleep in mind. One of the most important things on how music affects a person’s body is their own musical preferences. ____20____ For those who don’t want to design their own playlist, online music services have stepped in and usually offer playlists for sleep or relaxation.
A. It can guarantee sufficient sleep.

In the digital age, opportunities are arising for everyone. However, only those putting plans into action can stay ahead. Alexandr Wang is one such example.
Los Alamos National Laboratory was where Alexandr spent his childhood. Both his parents were physicists there. Alexandr, from a young age, had a sharp mind. As a kid, he was regarded as a math wizard (奇才) and competed in national math and computer competitions. Finishing high school, Alexandr entered MIT where machine learning and AI amazed him. He saw the potential (潜力) of AI, and was excited about how it could change the world. But it wasn’t making a real impact. His ambition to set up a company in that field was seeded then.
At 17, he got the role of tech lead at Quora where he met Lucy Guo , with whom Alexandr founded Scale AI, which turned out to be a considerable success. In fact, at that time, there were various opportunities in the tech world. It was hard to decide which road they should go down. Then he and his team decided to take a different approach — instead of following diverse paths, they agreed to focus on one. They went with “imagery, computer vision and other kinds of sensor data”. And that is what made the company’s profits rise quickly. Scale AI has a net worth of about $7.3 billion at present, with Alexandr being the world’s youngest self-made billionaire.
When asked lessons he’d like to share with founders, Alexandr stated there are a number of things. “The top one is always doing things that go with your values and how you want to build a company at the beginning. When you talk to investors (投资者), they’ll contribute advice that may go against your goal. Figure out your focus and what gets you started.”
4. What inspired Alexandr to build Scale AI?
A. The work at Quora. B. His experiences at university.
C. The influence of his parents. D. His talent for math and computer.
5. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. The key to the success of Scale AI. B. Challenges of Alexandr’s career.
C Alexandr’s great achievements. D. The process of founding Scale AI.
6. Which of the following can best describe Alexandr?
A. Clever and generous. B. Courageous and outgoing.
C. Ambitious and sociable. D. Adventurous and determined.
7. What did Alexandr advise founders to do?
A. Stick to one particular direction. B. Keep an open mind on suggestions.
C. Remain true to the original intention. D. Find a friend to start a company.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C

Livestreaming (直播) through channels such as Amazon Live and QVC is an increasingly popular way to sell goods online. It usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, and someone promotes a product. Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link.
We analyzed (分析) 99,451 sales cases on a livestream selling platform and matched them with actual sales cases. In terms of time, that is equal to over 2 million 30-second television advertisements.
To determine the emotional (情绪的) expression of the salesperson, we used two deep learning models: a face model and an emotion model. The face model discovers the presence or absence of a face in a frame of a video stream. The emotion model then determines the probability that a face is exhibiting any of the six basic human emotions: happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear or disgust. For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an off-putting expression usually points toward anger.
We wanted to see the effect of emotions expressed at different times in the sales cases so we counted probabilities for each emotion for all 62 million frames in our database. We then combined these probabilities with other possible aspects that might drive sales — such as price and product characteristics — to judge the effect of emotion.
We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.
A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.
8. What can we know about the livestreaming to sell goods online?
A. It challenges the physical economy. B. It helps big company sell all goods.
C. It is very convenient for the buyers. D. It helps the sellers develop fixed expressions.
9. What does the underlined word “off-putting” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Unhappy. B. Awkward. C. Surprised. D. Frightened.
10. How do customers feel about the seller’s smiling?
A. They feel thankful. B. They feel delighted. C. They feel cheated. D. They feel so tired.
11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. Livestreamers Sell Products Successfully B. Smiling Can Increase the Sales in Reality
C. Emotions and Faces: What’s the Difference D. Expressions Affect Selling Products Online
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说一篇明文。文章介绍了网络售货时,主播面部表情对网络销售效果的影响。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link.(观众可以通过点击链接来购买)”可知,观众可以通过点击链接来购买东西,即网络购物对于消费者而言很方便。故选C项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness(例如,微笑表示幸福的可能性很高)”以及while可知,本句中while为连词,意为“然而”,表示前后两种情况的对比,由后文anger可知,微笑表示幸福,而不高兴的表情通常指向愤怒,所以划线单词为“不高兴的”。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.(我们发现,当销售人员传达更多的负面情绪时——比如愤怒和厌恶——销售额就会下降,这也许并不令人意外。但我们也发现,当销售人员表现出高水平的积极情绪时,比如高兴或惊讶,也会发生类似的事情)”和第六段“A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.(根据我们的研究,一个可能的解释是,微笑可能很恶心,因为它缺乏真实的感觉,会降低对卖家的信任。销售者的快乐可能被认为是一种迹象,表明销售者正在以顾客的损失为代价获取利益)”可推断,消费者不喜欢卖家在直播中微笑是因为他们觉得被骗了。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.(我们发现,当销售人员传达更多的负面情绪时——比如愤怒和厌恶——销售额就会下降,这也许并不令人意外。但我们也发现,当销售人员表现出高水平的积极情绪时,比如高兴或惊讶,也会发生类似的事情)”及全文可知,文章主要介绍了网络售货时,主播面部表情对网络销售效果的影响。所以“Expressions Affect Selling Products Online (表情影响网上销售)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D项。

Many years ago, people relied on the sun, the moon and stars to find their way around. Later, the compass was introduced. And now, we have satnav (卫星导航) systems to guide us. A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user’s location. They send information to a receiver, such as a smartphone, to show us where we are.
The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning Satellite System, which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia’s Global Navigation Satellite system, the European Union’s Galileo and China’s own satellite navigation system, Beidou.
On October 18, 2017, an ARJ21-700 plane, which was the first domestically (国内地) produced jet equipped with the Beidou navigation system, successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced abroad, according to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China.
Since its introduction in 2000, the Beidou navigation system has been increasing numbers of applications linked to everyday life, from shared bikes to farming.
When it comes to shared bikes, smart locks that support Beidou chips offer more accurate positioning than others, making it easier to find a bike.
Farmers can use Beidou-enabled tractors to plow (犁) the soil and use unmanned aircraft with Beidou to sow seeds, which can improve efficiency and make better use of resources. Beidou’s farming applications have spread from Heilongjiang Province to Beijing, Liaoning, Shanxi, Hubei and other regions across China.
With its many uses, the Beidou navigation system is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative. “To date, the Beidou system has covered most parts of the Asia-Pacific region, as well as countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road,” said Yang Changfeng, chief designer of the Beidou system.
Today, there are more than 20 Beidou satellites above our heads, and China plans to launch even more this year to expand the Beidou network to better serve the Belt and Road Initiative.
“As Beidou expands its overseas reach, it will be increasingly popular in the logistics (物流) industry,” said Miao Qianjun, Secretary General of the navigation services association. “Ships, for example, can use it to position themselves while sailing across oceans to European countries, no longer limited to Southeast Asian regions in the near future.”
12. What is the purpose of the first two paragraphs?
A. To compare some modern satnav systems.
B. To describe the benefits of satnav systems.
C. To tell us how satnav systems were created.
D. To introduce some satnav systems and their functions.
13. What can we know about the Beidou navigation system according to the article?
A. It was used successfully in a new jet plane. B. It is more powerful than other satnav systems.
C. It was introduced to China on October, 2017. D. It won’t be expanded because it is so powerful now.
14. According to the article, the Beidou navigation system is already widely used for _______.
A. plowing the soil and sowing seeds
B. improving the efficiency of network
C. producing more smart locks for shared bikes
D. navigating ships across oceans to European countries
15. What is Miao Qianjun’s attitude toward the future of the Beidou system?
A. Worried. B. Casual. C. Positive. D. Indifferent.

36. All of us were _________ by the ________ question ___________ by a six-year-old boy.
A. puzzled; puzzling; rose B. puzzling; puzzled; raised
C. puzzled; puzzling; raised D. puzzled; puzzled; being raised
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:我们都被一个六岁男孩提出的令人困惑的问题难住了。V+ed修饰人,v+ing修饰物,question与raise之间是被动关系,所以第三个空用过去分词作定语,故选C。
37. ________ in her assignment, Mary didn’t notice her partner ________ in a new skirt.
A. To be absorbed, sitting B. Absorbing, sitting
C. Absorbed, seating D. Absorbed, dressed
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:玛丽全神贯注地做作业,没有注意到她的搭档穿了一条新裙子。根据所给句子可知,第一个设空处为非谓语动词作状语,absorb与主语Mary是被动关系,因此需要使用过去分词形式;第二个设空处为非谓语动词作宾语补足语,her partner与dress是被动关系,需要使用过去分词形式。故选D。
38. With all her time _________ experiments, she has no time for entertainment.
A. spent doing B. spent to do
C. spending to do D. is spent doing
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查with复合结构和动词短语。句意:她把所有的时间都花在做实验上,没有时间娱乐。分析句子可知,句中“With all her time _________ experiments”是“with +宾语+宾语补足语”的复合结构,在句中作状语。然后看宾语“all her time”与宾补之间的关系:“spend”与“time”之间是动宾关系,即“time”是“spend”的宾语,构成“spend time (in) doing sth.”的结构,意思是“花费时间做某事”。这里表示“所有的时间都被花在做实验上”,所以要用过去分词“spent”来表示被动关系,即“with all her time spent”。后面“doing experiments”是“spend time (in) doing sth.”结构中的“doing sth.”部分。故选A项。

A. where; being remembered B. in which; to be remembered
C. for which; remembered D. when; to remember
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句和动词不定式的被动语态。句意:白求恩去世后,毛泽东主席写了一篇纪念他的文章,称赞白求恩医生是中国值得纪念的英雄。分析第一个空:这里是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词是“an article”,在从句“he praised Dr. Bethune as a hero...”中,“in the article”表示 “在这篇文章里”,所以关系词可以用“in which”或“where”。分析第二个空:空处为非谓语,表示“一个将被中国铭记的英雄”,“to be done”结构表示将来的被动动作,“a hero ______ in China”,这里应用“to be remembered”作后置定语修饰“a hero”,符合语境。故选B项。
40. The polluted water was from a chemical factory by local people.
A running B. ran
C. to run D. run
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查过去分词作定语。句意:废水是从一家由当地人经营的化学工厂出来的。run为非谓语动词,修饰名词chemical factory,与其是动宾关系,故用过去分词形式,故选D。
41. On AIDS Day, the Minister of Health Department demanded the problems ______ should be paid special attention to.
A. referred to B. referring to
C. refer to D. to refer to
【答案】A
【解析】

42. The serious earthquake ________ effect many people are still suffering from brought great destruction to Japan in 2011.
A. which B. that C. where D. whose
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:2011年,许多人仍受其害的严重地震给日本带来了巨大的破坏。分析句子结构可知,此处为定语从句修饰先行词earthquake,且先行词earthquake与空后的effect之间存在所属关系,意思是“地震的影响”,所以使用whose。故选D项。
43. I shall never forget those years _______ I lived in the country with the farmers, _______ has a great effect on my life
A. that; which B. when; which C. when; who D. which; that
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:我永远不会忘记我和农民们一起在农村生活的那些年,这对我的生活产生了很大的影响。第一空中先行词为years,在定语从句中作时间状语,所以用关系副词when引导。第二空,指代前面的一件事,所以用which引导非限定性定语从句。故选B。
44. The medical team ________ 12 doctors, most of ________ are from Guangzhou First People’s Hospital.
A. is made up of; them B. are made up of; whom
C. comprise; whom D. consists of; whom
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语和定语从句。句意:医疗队由12名医生组成,其中大部分来自广州市第一人民医院。表示“由……组成”短语为be make up of、consist of或be comprised of,主语为The medical team,谓语用单数,故排除B、C选项;第二空“most of ________ are from Guangzhou First People’s Hospital”是定语从句,修饰先行词12 doctors,指人,作介词的宾语,用关系代词whom,故排除A选项。故选D。
45. The teacher was satisfied with all the homework ____ had been finished by us.
A. which B. that C. what D. /
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:老师对我们完成的所有作业都很满意。定语从句修饰先行词homework,在从句作主语,且由all修饰,只能用关系代词that。故选B。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文主要介绍了中国文学中哪吒这一传奇人物,以《哪吒 2》为例,介绍了该电影的成功、故事内容、所探讨的主题,还提及了导演杨宇从医学背景转行做动画的经历以及他希望《哪吒 2》能带给人们的激励。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他们的故事,创作于明朝时期,展现了他们如何凭借自身魔力与不公的命运作斗争。“Their stories”是句子的主语,“show”是谓语动词。“written during the Ming Dynasty”是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰“stories”。因为 “stories”和“write”之间是被动关系,即故事是被创作的,所以用过去分词形式。故填 written。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:《哪吒 2》是热门电影《哪吒之魔童降世》(2019 年)的续集。它取得了巨大成功,打破了中国票房纪录并且在全球获得了超过 13.7 亿美元的票房。“break” 和 “earn” 的逻辑主语都是“It(指代《哪吒 2》)”,且与主语之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词形式来表示电影成功所带来的结果。故填breaking。
【58题详解】
考查副词。句意:与孙悟空不同,哪吒的故事更具悲剧色彩,但同样鼓舞人心。inspiring是形容词,需要用副词来修饰。“equally” 是副词,意为 “同样地;相等地”。故填equally。
【59题详解】
考查名词。句意:在《哪吒 2》中,导演杨宇,也被称为饺子,探讨了个人成长以及与命运抗争的主题。of是介词,后面需要接名词。“grow” 是动词,其名词形式“growth”表示“成长;发展”。故填growth。
【60题详解】
考查介词。句意:哪吒被描绘成一个打破刻板印象的男孩,而其他角色,比如龙王三太子敖丙和反派申公豹,也有着他们自己的挣扎。“the Dragon Prince Ao Bing and the villain Shen Gongbao”是对“other characters”的举例说明,“like”作为介词,有“像;例如” 的意思,用于引出例子。故填like。
【61题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。句意:哪吒被描绘成一个打破刻板印象的男孩,而其他角色,比如龙王三太子敖丙和反派申公豹,也有着他们自己的挣扎。struggles” 是名词,前面需要用形容词性物主代词来修饰。“they” 是主格形式,其形容词性物主代词“their”表示 “他们的”。故填their。
【62题详解】
考查连词。句意;这部电影表明善与恶并非总是界限分明的。“good”和 “evil”是两个并列的名词,需要用连词and来连接。故填and。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:与此同时,它强调了家庭支持和爱的重要性,这帮助哪吒改变了他的命运。“it focuses on the importance of family support and love” 是句子的主干部分。“which helps Nezha change his fate” 是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词是 “the importance of family support and love”,关系代词“which”在从句中作主语,指代先行词。故填 which。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:有医学背景的杨宇,尽管面临着来自他人的质疑,还是转行进入了动画行业。“doubts from others”是名词短语,“Yang Yu, who has a medical background, switched to animation”是句子的主干部分。设空处需要一个介词来表示让步关系,“despite”是介词,意为“尽管;不管”,后面接名词或名词短语。故填 despite。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他希望《哪吒 2》能激励人们像哪吒那样为他们的梦想继续奋斗。“inspire sb. to do sth.”是固定搭配,意为“激励某人做某事”,所以这里用动词不定式 “to keep”作宾语补足语。故填to keep。
