B.Take a walk. C.Call his office. 【听力原文】 M： Jenny， you can just drop me here. W：But we’re two streets away from the office. M：It’s fine.I had a big breakfast and feel like a bit of walk. 【分析】　根据男士所说的I had a big breakfast and feel like a bit of walk.中的并列连词and可知，男士想要散步。故答案为B。 核心词汇集释 1.emotion n.情感；情绪 教材原句　What emotions do the speakers express？演讲者表达了什么样的情感？ 【用法】 （1）with emotion　　　　　激动地，感动地 （2）emotional adj.　　情感的，情绪的；激起感情的，有感染力的 emotionally adv.　　感情上；情绪上；令人激动地；情绪冲动地 【佳句】　He stood up， hugged his parents， and smiled， trying not to let his emotions get the better of him.　（动作描写） 他站起来，拥抱他的父母，微笑着，努力不让自己的情绪失控。 【练透】　单句语法填空 ①　Emotional　 （emotion） eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of satisfying their hunger. ②She was good at hiding her 　emotions　 （emotion）. 【写美】　完成句子 ③　She spoke with emotion　 when she talked about the hardships her family had faced. 　（情感描写） 当她谈到她的家庭所面临的困难时，她激动地说着。 2.master vt.掌握，精通n.大师；主人；能手；硕士学位 教材原句　All of those are difficult to master！所有这些都很难掌握！ 【用法】 have a good master of　精通，掌握 be master of ...　　完全控制……，掌握…… 【佳句】　Furry started wagging his tail and running around in circles when he saw his master taking a leash out from the drawer.

Ⅰ.阅读理解 A 　　（2025·兰州期末）Before she could even talk， Ellie Heath spent hours drawing pictures. When she grew older， the 15-year-old discovered the joy of sewing （缝纫）. She says she finds it calming. She started out making small things， like jewelry and soft toys. Over time， she began making clothing. Her love of the creative work led her to open a business. Three Blue Bunnies is the name of her company， which makes what she calls “wearable art”. 　　“My definition of wearable art is something that makes you feel unique. It’s one of a kind， often handmade，” she explains. She sells her creations in farmers’ markets and at sales for local churches. 　　All the pieces Ellie creates are made of used or donated fabrics （捐赠的布料）. She works a lot with jean jackets， renewing them with artistic additions. The process starts with finding cloth material that looks good with the jackets. “Then， I find out the design that works on it through trial and error （反复尝试） or the design comes to me，” she explains. 　　Ellie sharpened her creative skills at school. Cheryl Crow was one of her teachers. Crow called Ellie “a dream student”.She said Ellie worked hard and made progress. “She is always very creative， but also very kind， helpful to the other students.” 　　Ellie has many dreams. She wants to be a teacher and spread the joy of creativity among children.

During this process， she discovered someone else’s paper that suggested bacteria can be used to repair artworks. 　　At around the same time， Bosch learned that her mother was struggling to find a good method for repairing 18th-century paintings. The paintings sat in Santos Juanes — one of the oldest churches in the city of Valencia. 　　Bosch said her mother， Pilar Roig， mentioned how difficult the repairing process at the church was. One reason was the glue used to remove the paintings from the walls in the 1960s. It was nearly impossible to remove it completely. 　　“My mother had a very difficult problem to solve and I found a paper about bacteria used to clean frescoes in Italy，” Bosch said. A fresco is a kind of painting that often appears across a large wall. 　　Bosch added she decided to write her doctoral paper on the same subject. That was more than ten years ago. Today， she gets to work with her mother on the church repair. They are using the bacteria method to remove glue from artworks. The $4.46 million project is being provided by local organisations. 　　The process involves feeding small amounts of the glue to the bacteria. After a time， the bacteria begin to break down the glue. The mother-daughter team then mixes the bacteria with a natural substance， called a gel， and places it onto the paintings. They say that after about three hours， the gel mixture is removed， leaving the paintings glue-free. 　　Bosch has also used her bacteria removal process in other repairing projects in Italy and Spain. And she is now training other scientists to use a different kind of bacteria to clear walls of painted graffiti. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一位西班牙微生物学家发现的一种利用细菌修复古画的方法。 5.According to Pilar Roig， why was it difficult to restore the paintings at the church？（　　） A.It was impossible to use the glue. B.The paintings were too old to restore. C.It was unlikely to fully remove the glue. D.The paintings sat at the oldest church. 解析：C　细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句可知，修复教堂的壁画非常困难是因为几乎不可能完全移除画作从墙上剥离时使用的胶水。 6.What can we learn about Bosch’s doctoral paper？（　　） A.It was written over ten years ago. B.It was published by local organisations. C.It was one and only rewarding paper. D.It was about using bacteria to protect glue. 解析：A　细节理解题。根据第六段前两句可知，Bosch写博士论文是在十多年前。 7.What does Bosch’s mother probably work on？（　　） A.Researching bacteria and medicine. B.Teaching biology in a key university. C.Studying different kinds of artworks. D.Repairing old churches and works of art. 解析：D　推理判断题。根据第三段第一句以及第六段第三、四句可推知，Bosch的母亲很可能从事修复古建筑和艺术品工作。 8.What’s the best title for the text？（　　） A.Repairing 18th-century Paintings Is Very Difficult B.Different Kinds of Bacteria Have Different Functions C.A Spanish Scientist Writes the Doctoral Paper on Bacteria D.A Spanish Scientist Uses Bacteria to Repair Old Artworks 解析：D　标题归纳题。本文主要介绍的是一位西班牙科学家使用细菌帮助修复18世纪的古画。 C 　　（2025·湖南师大附中检测）Ramona is only seven years old， but her paintings sell for around $2，000 each. That is a good price， especially since each painting takes her no more than 10 minutes. 　　She doesn’t paint the same subjects as the average 7-year-old girl， either. There are no pictures of Mummy and Daddy， or her friends or school. Ramona prefers abstract （抽象的） art. She does not paint the real world. Instead， she paints her feelings about it in broad sweeps of bright colour. In fact， Ramona is an elephant. 　　Ramona is not the only artist at the Elephant Safari Park on the Indonesian island of Bali， or in Asia as a whole. Art comes naturally to them， “For many years， zookeepers have known that elephants both in zoos and in the wild will pick up sticks and doodle in the dirt，” says Mia Fineman， an art historian from New York and author of the book When Elephants Paint. 　　Mia Fineman says that elephants from different parts of Asia have different styles. Those from central Thailand， for example， prefer cool， dark colours like blue and green. “When I view a painting， I can usually tell what region it’s from， and which elephant created it，” she says. 　　Elephant art first appeared in 1997， when two Russian conceptual artists first had the idea of encouraging elephants to paint. For them， the art lay in the idea of elephants painting， rather than in the paintings themselves. 　　Over time， people have come to enjoy the elephant art for itself. No one will put Ramona and her friends in the same category （类别） as famous painters like Rembrandt or Picasso. But their works are not just random brush strokes， either. Elephants are known to be sensitive and thoughtful creatures. There is no reason why they should not express their feelings about the world around them and what the human race has done to the world. 　　We may one day come to understand the meaning of elephant art. But will we like what it has to say about us？ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了神奇的大象绘画艺术。 9.The underlined word “doodle” in paragraph 3 probably means “　　　”.（　　） A.fight fearlessly　 B.draw roughly C.walk carelessly　 D.play happily 解析：B　词义猜测题。根据画线词上文可知，此处指大象喜欢画画，选项中只有B项与绘画有关。由此推测，画线词意为“粗略地画”，符合大象用棍子在泥土里创作的场景。 10.Why did the two Russian artists encourage elephants to paint？（　　） A.They thought the act of elephant painting was an art. B.Elephants could express their feelings about the world. C.Elephants’ paintings were worth a lot of money. D.Lost elephants could be found because of their paintings. 解析：A　细节理解题。根据第五段第二句可知，这两位俄罗斯艺术家鼓励大象画画是因为他们认为大象画画的行为是一种艺术。 11.What does the writer think of elephant art？（　　） A.Elephant art can equal human art. B.Paintings by elephants are meaningless. C.Much remains to be discovered about elephant art. D.It is impossible to discover what elephant art means. 解析：C　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后三句可知，大象的作品并非随意的笔触，而是表达了它们对世界、对人类行为的感受，其意义我们有一天会明白。由此可推知，作者认为关于大象艺术还有很多有待发现的地方。 12.What does the passage mainly talk about？（　　） A.A new way of making money. B.An advanced method of training elephants. C.Different lifestyles of elephants in parks. D.The amazing art of elephants’ paintings. 解析：D　主旨大意题。文章以7岁的大象Ramona为例，介绍了神奇的大象绘画，主要包括大象艺术家的风格，大象绘画概念的起源和发展，及其作品背后的意义。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 　　（2025·湖北襄阳五中检测）Art isn’t always an easy and straightforward thing to understand， and it can be hard to appreciate because it has been seen as something that only particularly educated or wealthy people can enjoy. 13.（　　） Anyone can come to appreciate art with a little bit of time and effort. 　　Understand the art and then go a step deeper to understand the artists， their intentions and the historical backgrounds. Artists often create works to comment on major historical events. 14.（　　） For example， Pablo Picasso’s Guernica （1937） was created in response to the bombings during the Spanish Civil War. It’s filled with anti-war symbolism. Picasso said of the artwork， “Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war against cruelty and darkness.” 　　15.（　　） Art movements grow from popularity of certain ways of creating art. An art school is basically a group of artists， sometimes all in the same region， who all have a similar style or subject matter. Knowing a little bit about these can help you understand why an artist might have made certain choices. For example， painters in the Egyptian school of art had certain rules that they had to follow — like the size of any figure they drew was supposed to vary based on the social status of the person they were painting. 16.（　　） Each one symbolised a different aspect of life or death. 　　Check out the life experiences of the artists. Learning a bit about the artists who created a piece can help understand it in a variety of ways. It can help you understand why they made certain artistic decisions. 17.（　　） She had limited mobility after fighting against a serious disease and suffering a bus accident in her early life. Her pain and struggle appear in several of her pieces. A.But our tips will give you a new way. B.Art movements sometimes inspired artists. C.They also couldn’t use more than six colours. D.However， this couldn’t be further from the truth. E.This can give you a window into their unique opinion. F.For example， Mexican painter Frida Kahlo had suffered a lot. G.Learn about the art movements or schools that influenced the piece. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何欣赏艺术。 13.D　上文谈到大多数人对艺术的态度；下文谈到只要花一点时间和精力，任何人都可以欣赏艺术。D项与上文为转折关系且承接下文。 14.E　根据上文可知，艺术家经常创作作品来评论重大历史事件。E项承接上文说明其作用。 15.G　本段主要说要了解艺术运动和流派。G项适合作为本段的标题。 16.C　上文谈到埃及艺术学派的画家有一定的规则；下文谈到每一种颜色都象征着生或死的不同方面。C项符合语境。 17.F　下文谈到，她在早年与疾病作斗争，并遭遇了一次车祸。她的痛苦和挣扎出现在她的几幅作品中。F项举例说明。其中的suffered a lot呼应下文的suffering。 15 / 15 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
