【详细解析】
一、十二选十填空
archaeologists
考点本质:名词作主语(职业身份)
破题技巧:
句首 "by ______" 需接动作执行者 → 方框中只有 "archaeology"(考古学)可转化为表示人的名词 "archaeologists"
验证:后文多次出现 "archaeologists explored" 的复现线索
高考预警:学科名词(-ology)变从业者(-ologist)是高频考点(e.g. biology → biologist)
stands
考点本质:定语从句谓语时态
破题技巧:
先行词 "temple" 为单数 → 排除复数动词
时间线索:后文 "was used... until Roman times" 用过去时,但 "stands" 描述现存遗迹 → 需用一般现在时表客观事实
公式:客观真理/现存事实+一般现在时(无论主句时态)
prosperous
考点本质:系表结构中的形容词补语
破题技巧:
"must have been ______" 需形容词 → 方框中 "prosperity"(繁荣)的形容词形式
因果验证:后文 "for it enjoyed..." 解释原因
decorated
考点本质:过去分词作后置定语
破题技巧:
"with beautifully ______ walls" 中名词需修饰语
被动逻辑:墙壁是被装饰的 → 用 decorate 的过去分词
高考预警:副词(beautifully)修饰分词是黄金标志(e.g. carefully designed)
drainage
考点本质:专业术语固定搭配
破题技巧:
"a ______ system" 需名词 → drain(排水)的名词变形
后文线索: "clay pipes" 直接指向排水系统
fragments
考点本质:名词复数作主语
破题技巧:
谓语 "were found" 需复数主语
语义验证:后文 "reconstructed the fragments" 复现
preserved
考点本质:被动语态中的过去分词
破题技巧:
"and carefully ______" 与 "found" 并列 → 需过去分词
语义逻辑:头部被"保存"(preserve)而非"装饰"(decorate)
reconstructed
考点本质:时间状语从句的谓语动词
破题技巧:
从句缺谓语:"When the archaeologists ______"
语义指向:拼合碎片 → reconstruct(重建)
高考预警:考古学术语(reconstruct/preserve/excavate)是高频词库
rested
考点本质:并列谓语时态一致
破题技巧:
"and her hands ______" 与 "stood" 并列 → 需过去式
固定搭配:rest on hips(叉腰姿势)
graceful
考点本质:形容词作表语
破题技巧:
"was very ______" 需形容词 → grace(优雅)的形容词形式
转折逻辑:"Despite her great age" 暗示反差
二、语法填空解析
explored
考点本质:主从句时态一致
破题技巧:主句 "discovery was made" 用过去时 → 从句动作需同步(explored)
civilization
考点本质:介词后接名词
破题技巧:"level of ______" 中 of 需接名词 → civilize(动词)→ civilization
equipped
考点本质:被动语态结构
公式:be + 过去分词 + with(be equipped with=配备有)
a
考点本质:固定量词搭配
黄金法则:a great many + 复数名词(= 大量)
beneath/under
考点本质:方位介词辨析
破题技巧:强调"在街道下方埋藏" → beneath(紧贴下方)最佳
most sacred
考点本质:形容词最高级
标志词:定冠词 the + 单数名词 room → 需最高级
statues
考点本质:数量词后的名词复数
规则:fifteen 后必须接复数名词
dating
考点本质:现在分词作后置定语

When/After
考点本质:时间状语从句连词
逻辑验证:"______ they reconstructed" 与 "were amazed" 同时发生
Despite
考点本质:让步介词
结构验证:______ + 名词短语(her great age),后接主句
三、阅读理解解析
正确答案:D. An Unknown Goddess
选项
解析
A. The Beauty of Cultural Heritage
偏离重点:全文只末句提"优雅",未展开"文化之美"主题
B. An Exploration into Ancient Civilization
范围过大:城市文明是背景,核心是女神像的发现
D. An Unknown Goddess(✓)
精准覆盖:
① 线索贯穿:雕像发现(第2段)→ 拼合(第8空)→ 身份之谜(末句)
② 末句点睛:"unable to discover her identity" 直接呼应 "unknown"
C. How to be a Graceful Goddess
完全离题:未讨论"如何成为女神",属干扰项
主旨结构验证:
开头:考古发现地点(Kea岛)
发展:城市文明证据 → 神庙功能 → 雕像碎片
高潮:女神像复原(现代外貌与身份之谜)
结尾:强调未知身份(核心矛盾)
【介词释义】
“beneath”、“under”、“below”和“underneath”用法和区别
Beneath:
用法:用于描述某物位于另一物的正下方或底部,通常带有一种正式或文学化的色彩。
示例:The treasure was hidden beneath the floorboards.(宝藏被藏在地板下面。)
区别:相对于“under”,它更强调直接位于下方的位置,且常用于更正式的语境。
Under:
用法:非常通用,用于描述任何在另一物下方的位置,无论是否直接接触。
示例:The cat is under the table.(猫在桌子下面。)
区别:使用范围最广,既可用于正式场合也适用于日常对话。
Below:
用法:表示一个事物的位置远低于另一个事物,强调垂直方向上的位置关系。
示例:The apartment is located below ours.(公寓位于我们的下面。)
区别:除了表示位置关系外,还可以用于描述数量、程度等少于、小于或不足的情况。
Underneath (超纲):
用法:与“under”相似,但更强调被覆盖或隐藏的状态。
示例:She hid the money underneath the mattress.(她把钱藏在床垫下面。)
区别:除了作为介词外,还可以用作副词和名词。在日常口语中,它可能带有一种更非正式或口语化的色彩。
总结:这四个介词在描述“在下面”的位置关系时,虽然意思相近,但在具体用法和语境上有所区别。其中,“beneath”和“under”更强调位置的直接性,而“below”则更侧重于垂直方向上的位置关系。而“underneath”则更强调被覆盖或隐藏的状态。在选择使用哪个介词时,需要考虑具体的语境和要表达的含义。

A2-倔强青铜-银川市景博中学2024-2025学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题
一、阅读理解
As April 18 marks the International Day for Monuments and Sites, also known as World Heritage Day, we’ve selected four archaeological (考古的) sites in China that deserve exploration.
Zhoukoudian, Beijing
Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago.
Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province
As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years.
The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers.
The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province
The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC).
Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world.
The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province
Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs.
Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire.

B1-秩序白银-广州市天河区2021-2022学年高一上学期期末考试英语试题
King Tut, Egypt’s famous boy king, was buried with many treasures. A knife discovered in his tomb has recently attracted extra attention. Researchers have found that the knife was probably made from a special material.
King Tut was only about nine years old when he became ruler of Egypt more than 3,300 years ago. The young king died when he was just 19. His body was buried in a tomb filled with things that people believed he would need in the afterlife.
In 1922, Howard Carter discovered Tut’s tomb in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt.Up to now, it is the best preserved ancient Egyptian tomb ever found. In 1925, Carter found the knife which has a gold handle (刀柄) and an iron blade (刀片). The blade had confused experts because iron was hardly used at that time in ancient Egypt. In fact, it was so uncommon that it was considered more valuable than gold. Where did the iron for the blade come from?
Around the time of King Tut, ancient Egyptians started using a new word for iron that translates as “iron from the sky”. This led some experts to believe that the iron for the blade came from a meteorite (陨石). But studies of the knife carried out in the 1970s and 1990s didn’t support that idea.
That’s where modern technology comes in. Researchers used a new technique to examine the blade. They discovered that it was made up of iron and other materials found in meteorites. After comparing it to several meteorites, they even found its possible match — a meteorite that landed in northern Egypt thousands of years ago.
Scientists hope the new study will lead to more discoveries about other ancient Egyptian relics. “It would be very interesting to analyze more Pre - iron Age relics and we could gain precious discoveries.” Professor Daniela Comelli said.
4.What do we know about Tut’s tomb?
A.It was well kept when discovered. B.It was built when he became a ruler.
C.It was filled with lots of iron products. D.It was the first Egyptian tomb to be found.
5.Scientists pay extra attention to the knife because it ______.
A.has a gold handle B.has an iron blade
C.leads to more discoveries D.is more valuable than gold
6.What plays the most important role in deciding the source of the iron?
A.The belief of some experts. B.The use of modern technology.
C.The former studies of the knife. D.The ancient Egyptian word for iron.
7.What is the purpose of the passage?
A.To tell a story of a knife. B.To attract visitors to Egypt.
C.To report a scientific finding. D.To introduce an Egyptian boy king.

Eating the Roman Way Today
It’s hard to believe that there could be many similarities between the way we eat today and the diet and eating habits of ancient Romans. However, diggings at the ancient Roman towns of Pompeii and nearby Herculaneum have uncovered at least one significant parallel (共同点). 8 Just as we do today.
Buying baked bread is one example of a convenience in both the ancient and modern worlds. 9 There is evidence that Romans bought their bread, too, rather than baking it themselves. A large wall painting in Pompeii shows customers buying loaves of bread in a shop. Archaeologists have identified more than 30 shops that may have been bakeries. 10 In addition to these discoveries, archaeologists found that few homes in Pompeii had ovens, which suggests that most people did not bake at home.
11 Pompeii is filled with shops that have dishes (餐具) to hold food. Many shops had built-in stoves that allowed them to cook and serve food. Types of foods that have been found in these shops include dates and lentils.
Archaeologists have also uncovered many houses with small barbecue grills (烤架). 12 Taken together, these pieces of evidence suggest that Romans frequently grabbed a quick bite to eat at home, right off the grill, or bought a meal to go. Sound familiar?
A.Most people today purchase bread in a store.
B.Nowadays many people like eating bread.
C.But few of these houses had sets of dishes.
D.In ancient Romans often ate out in restaurants.
E.Ancient Romans also had a type of take-out food.
F.Signs on walls told Roman shoppers that certain sellers sold bread.
G.Romans enjoyed convenient ways to get their food and ate on the go.

The remains of a gold mask are among the 3,000-year-old artifacts (历史文物) found at Sanxingdui, a 4.6-square-mile area outside Chengdu, capital of Sichuan province. 33 (weigh) about 280 grams and estimated to be made from 84% gold, the mask is one of over 500 items unearthed from six newly discovered “sacrificial pits (祭祀坑)” in Sanxingdui.
More than 50,000 ancient artifacts 34 (find) at Sanxingdui since the 1920s, when a local farmer accidentally came upon a number of relics at the site. A major breakthrough 35 (occur) in 1986, with the discovery of two ceremonial pits containing over 1,000 items. Discoveries 36 (make) at the site date back to the 12th and 11th centuries BC, and many of the items are now 37 display at an on-site museum.
The site has 38 (complete) changed experts’ understanding of 39 the ancient civilization developed in China. In particular, evidence suggests that the unique ancient Shu society developed independently of neighboring cultures in the Yellow River Valley, 40 was traditionally considered to be the origin of Chinese civilization.
Along with other Shu archaeological 41 (site), it is credited by the UN as “an outstanding 42 (represent) of the Bronze Age Civilization of China, East Asia and even the world.”

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。通过庞贝古城及附近赫库兰尼姆的考古发现,揭示古罗马人与现代人在饮食便利性和外带食物等方面的相似之处。
8.根据前文“It’s hard to believe that there could be many similarities between the way we eat today and the diet and eating habits of ancient Romans. However, diggings at the ancient Roman towns of Pompeii and nearby Herculaneum have uncovered at least one significant parallel (共同点). (很难相信我们今天的饮食方式和古罗马人的饮食习惯有很多相似之处。然而,在古罗马城镇庞贝以及附近的赫库兰尼姆进行的挖掘工作,已经揭示出至少一个显著的共同点)”及后文“Just as we do today. (就像我们今天所做的一样)”可知,空处需总述古罗马人与现代人在饮食方面的某个共同点。G选项“罗马人喜欢便捷的食物获取方式,并在途中进食”既点明便利性这一共同点,又与后文现代人行为形成呼应,符合语境。故选G。
9.根据上文“Buying baked bread is one example of a convenience in both the ancient and modern worlds. (在古代和现代世界,购买烤面包都是体现便利性的一个例子)”引出“买面包”这一便利行为,下文“There is evidence that Romans bought their bread, too, rather than baking it themselves. A large wall painting in Pompeii shows customers buying loaves of bread in a shop. (有证据表明,罗马人也会购买面包,而不是自己烘焙。庞贝古城的一幅大型壁画显示,顾客正在一家商店里购买成条的面包)”表明罗马人也购买面包。A选项“如今大多数人在商店购买面包”通过today与ancient对比,用现代人的行为引出罗马人的相似习惯,逻辑连贯。故选A。
10.前文“A large wall painting in Pompeii shows customers buying loaves of bread in a shop. Archaeologists have identified more than 30 shops that may have been bakeries.(庞贝城的一幅大壁画描绘了顾客在商店里购买面包的情景。考古学家已经确定了30多家可能是面包店的商店)”提到庞贝古城壁画显示顾客买面包、30多家可能的面包店,后文“In addition to these discoveries, archaeologists found that few homes in Pompeii had ovens, which suggests that most people did not bake at home. (除这些发现之外,考古学家们发现庞贝古城中几乎没有家庭配备烤箱,这表明大多数人不会在家烘焙食物)”补充说明庞贝家庭少有烤箱。F选项“墙上的标识告诉罗马购物者特定卖家出售面包”进一步用“标识”证据支撑“罗马人购买面包”的结论,与前后文的考古发现并列,增强说服力。故选F。
11.根据下文“Pompeii is filled with shops that have dishes (餐具) to hold food. Many shops had built-in stoves that allowed them to cook and serve food. (庞贝古城到处都是配有盛放食物餐具的店铺。许多店铺都有嵌入式炉灶,可供他们烹饪和供应食物)”描述古罗马店铺提供现成食物,暗示外带饮食场景。E选项“古罗马人也有一种外卖食品”作为段落主旨句,其中“take-out food”直接对应后文“shops”提供即食食物的功能,符合语境。故选E。
12.根据前文“Archaeologists have also uncovered many houses with small barbecue grills (烤架). (考古学家们还发现了许多带有小型烧烤架的房屋)”提到家庭烤架,后文“Taken together, these pieces of evidence suggest that Romans frequently grabbed a quick bite to eat at home, right off the grill, or bought a meal to go. Sound familiar? (综合来看,这些证据表明罗马人经常在家用烤架快速烤点东西吃,或者买外卖。听起来很熟悉吧?)”总结饮食场景。C选项“但这些房子中很少有餐具套装”通过转折词but指出家庭烤架与餐具不足的矛盾,间接说明罗马人更倾向简单烹饪或在外购买,与后文quick bite形成因果逻辑。故选C。

Lesson3 An unknown goddess
摘要:
Archaeologists found clay fragments in an ancient temple. These represented the fifteen statues of goddesses which had once been painted. The body of one statue was found among remains from the fifteenth century B.C. while its head was found among remains from the fifth century B.C. When the Unit 1 Lesson 3 fragments were reconstructed, they turned out to be a goddess which stood three feet high. Her hands rested on her hips and she was wearing a full-length skirt. Her identity is unknown. (80 words)
作文:
After walking round the ancient city, the archaeologists discovered an ancient temple. This temple had obviously been a place of worship because it contained a sacred room. On entering the sacred room, the archaeologists found the clay fragments of fifteen statues, each of which was a goddess which had once been painted. After this, workmen began digging and soon discovered the head of a statue among remains dating from the fifth century B.C. They also found the body of this statue among remains from the fifteenth century B.C. The archaeologists carefully put the fragments together. They were astonished to find that the figure was a goddess. The goddess was a modern-looking woman. She had her hands on her hips and she was wearing a full-length skirt. Although the archaeologists tried very hard to identify her, they were unable to find out her name. (143 words)
