Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
(2025·江西省第一次模拟)Olga Bannova doesn't carry a business card that reads “Space Architect”,though she admits that would be pretty cool.Instead,Bannova's title is director of the Sasakawa International Center for Space Architecture(SICSA)in the University of Houston's Cullen College of Engineering.
SICSA is home to the world's only space architecture graduate program.It's not a huge program yet, accepting only a few graduates every year.But for those who believe our very existence relies on someday moving to a different galactic(银河的) neighborhood, space architecture has us covered. “You can't stay in your house and think that somehow everything else will be the same.Everything is changing,including our Earth,including us, including the solar system.It's all changing and moving,”Bannova says.“That's why it's important.Space architecture will consider all that we need in space.”
Space architects design buildings and houses and offices and a whole bunch of other stuff that humans need to survive—both here and in space plus design ways to get between them.They deal with problems that earthbound architects don't even dream about, for example, a lack of oxygen or atmosphere, a lack of sunlight, too much sunlight, microgravity, a lack of material to build what you need.Or no way to ship material that you need to where you need it.
It's not hard to imagine the problems that space architects will face,now and in the future.It's not hard to imagine either that we can't even begin to imagine some of the challenges they'll be up against.Carving out a space in space for our species to continue is a huge undertaking, perhaps the most daring ever for mankind.But we've taken the first step, haven't we?
1.What is special about SICSA?( )
A.It is the only space research center.
B.It trains graduates to become spacemen.
C.It accepts lots of graduates every year.
D.It has a unique program in the world.
2.The underlined part “has us covered” in Paragraph 2 means “________”.( )
A.reports the latest news
B.hides something important
C.provides what's needed
D.informs us of the development
3.Which aspect of space architects is Paragraph 3 mainly about?( )
A.Their duties. B.Their challenges.
C.Their dreams. D.Their achievements.
4.What does the author think of space architects' work?( )
A.Tiring. B.Admirable.
C.Problematic. D.Fruitful.
Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
During winter holidays, you'll likely be photographed countless times.Reuniting with family and friends naturally pushes you to value the moments by taking photos.1(____)We take pictures on our phones and quickly check if the photos are good enough to be uploaded online or shared.Unfortunately, most of us are not naturally attractive in photos, and being the subject of so many photographs frequently results in more than a few images we wish didn't exist.2(____)By following these simple methods, you may permanently delete undesirable images and enjoy your holiday without worrying about what might end up online.
Knowing lighting is the first step to getting good pictures.The trick is to place yourself in front of the light and place the lighting behind the camera.When you take a shot with the light in front of your camera, the photograph looks dark.However, bright lighting on your face and behind the lenses (镜头) will make you look brighter and help avoid minor imperfections.3(____)Also, insure that windows and lighting equipment are behind the camera if you're shooting indoors.
4(____)Maybe a side profile suits you the most, or if you have a nice face, a frontface photo can look the best.So, take some selfies (自拍) and learn your ideal photo profile before a shoot.With confidence, take your next shot!
While complex surroundings can result in an awardwinning photo, it frequently shifts the viewer's attention away from you.If you're photographing outside, choose a solidcolored building or wall to pose against.5(____)Having everything in order behind you can significantly influence the outcome of a photograph.
A.Nowadays photos are instant.
B.Photo shoot skills are the top priority.
C.However, it does not have to be the case in fact.
D.Appropriate angles can give you an excellent photograph.
E.If the light is bright, it will create shadows on your body.
F.If you're outside, position the camera so that the sun is behind it.
G.Insure that the background is clean and tidy while shooting indoors.
参考答案:
Ⅰ.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了SICSA有一个世界上唯一的太空建筑研究生项目,太空建筑的重要意义和太空建筑设计师的主要职责。
1.解析:选D。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“SICSA is home to the world's only space architecture graduate program.”可知,SICSA是世界上唯一的太空建筑研究生项目的所在地。由此可知,SICSA有一个世界上独一无二的项目。故选D。
2.解析:选C。词句猜测题。第二段画线处所在句表达的是,对于那些相信我们有一天会移动到另一个银河系的人来说,宇宙建筑为我们做好了万全准备。根据Bannova说的话可知,虽然一切在改变,但太空建筑将会考虑到我们在空间中所需要的一切,也就是说,太空建筑可以提供我们所需要的东西。故选C。
3.解析:选A。细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Space architects design buildings...don't even dream about”可知,太空建筑师设计建筑、房屋、办公室和人类生存所需的东西。由此可知,这一段主要介绍了太空建筑设计师的职责,并举例说明。故选A。
4.解析:选B。推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Carving out a space in space for our species to continue is a huge undertaking, perhaps the most daring ever for mankind.But we've taken the first step, haven't we?”可知,作者认为在太空中开拓一片空间让我们人类延续下去是一项巨大的事业,也许是人类有史以来最大胆的。但是我们已经迈出了第一步。由此可推断出,作者认为太空建筑设计师的工作是伟大的、创历史的,对他们的态度是崇拜的、敬重的。tiring意为“令人疲惫的”;admirable意为“令人钦佩的”;problematic意为“有问题的”;fruitful意为“硕果累累的”。故选B。
Ⅱ.语篇解读:本文是说明文。本文主要介绍了如何拍出好看的照片。
1.解析:选A。根据下一句“We take pictures on our phones and quickly check if the photos are good enough to be uploaded online or shared.”及常识可知,现在手机拍照拍完可以立即查看拍摄效果。A项(现在照片是即时的)与下文语义连贯,符合语境。
2.解析:选C。根据上文“Unfortunately, most of us are not naturally attractive in photos, and being the subject of so many photographs frequently results in more than a few images we wish didn't exist.”及空后的“By following these simple methods, you may...”可知,设空处这里应是会表达轻微的转折。C项(但是,事实上,情况并不一定是这样的)衔接上下文,符合语境。
3.解析:选F。根据本段段首主题句“Knowing lighting is the first step to getting good pictures.”可知,本段是在介绍拍照时光线的问题;结合空后的“Also, insure that windows and lighting equipment are behind the camera if you're shooting indoors.”可知,如果在室内拍摄,你要确保窗户和照明设备都在相机后面。由此可推知,设空处应是说明在室外的话也应该注意光线的问题。F项(如果你在室外,把相机放在背向太阳的位置)符合语境。
4.解析:选D。设空处为本段的主题句。根据设空处后的“Maybe a side profile suits you the most, or if you have a nice face, a frontface photo can look the best.”可知,本段是在介绍拍摄角度的问题。D项(合适的角度可以让你得到一张极好的照片)符合语境。
5.解析:选G。根据本段首句“While complex surroundings can result in an awardwinning photo, it frequently shifts the viewer's attention away from you.”可知,虽然复杂的环境可能会拍出获奖照片,但它经常会把观众的注意力从你身上转移开;再结合空后的“Having everything in order behind you can significantly influence the outcome of a photograph.”可知,你身后的一切都井然有序会极大地影响一张照片的效果。由此可推知,本段是在介绍拍摄时背景方面的技巧。G项(在室内拍摄时要确保背景干净整洁)能承接上下文,符合语境。
