Ⅰ.阅读理解
All of America's popular music — jazz, country, rock and roll, and hip hop — develops from the Delta blues. Its words gave voice to the lives of workers in the fields of the Deep South, who were deeply affected by slavery (奴隶制度). The blues may be concerned with sadness, but singing it is an act of defiance, not despair (绝望). The blues reminds us of our weak points while encouraging us to see how far we can actually go.
We can still almost touch the origin of this art form. Looking back on the journey the blues took north up the Mississippi River — when African Americans left the South in search of new jobs — photographer Gail Mooney travelled from Chicago clubs down to the Delta to get the stories of blues men and blues women. They are still here today to attach us to the music's early days.
“In our conversations, we talked so much more about other things than their music，” says Mooney, whose exhibition on the blues has just begun a US tour this spring.“We talked about their childhoods, their cultural origin, and a time in America when people moved to live in large cities. I would listen, and sometimes I would get a feeling.”
These photos show some of the musicians who worked and studied with blues pioneers — drummer Sam Carr was the son of Robert Nighthawk, while Pinetop Perkins and Willie“Big Eyes”Smith played together with Muddy Waters.
Already, this generation is leaving us: Little Milton, guitarist and vocalist, and Robert“Junior”Lockwood (who learned from Robert Johnson, the greatest blues man of all) have passed away since Mooney began her project. However, they left many valuable things to us. Turn on your radio and some little piece of the Delta gets passed down again.
1．From the passage we know that the blues ________.
A．contains many kinds of music
B．aims to give people sad feelings
C．was created by workers in the fields
D．described the lives of workers in the fields
2．Why did Mooney travel from Chicago clubs down to the Delta
A．To learn to play the blues.
B．To find the origin of the blues.
C．To take more beautiful photos.
D．To learn about different cultures.
3．From what Mooney said we can learn that ________.
A．blues men and blues women like their lives more than their music
B．blues men and blues women like living in large cities
C．the blues has a wonderful history
D．the blues is very popular

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了张家界的一些景色秀美、风光独特的风景名胜区。
1．of 考查介词。张家界包括永定区、慈利县和桑植县。of在此用于表示性质、组成或涵盖，意为“即，由……组成”。
2．was named 考查动词时态和语态。关系代词which指代先行词Wulingyuan Scenic Area，并在定语从句中充当主语，故谓语动词应使用第三人称单数形式；由定语从句的时间状语in 1992可知，定语从句应使用一般过去时；关系代词which指代的先行词Wulingyuan Scenic Area与name之间为动宾关系，故应用被动语态。所以填was named。
3．combination 考查名词。由前面的形容词creative和后面的of可知，此处应用combine的名词形式。
4．made 考查非谓语动词。根据固定短语be made up of“由……组成”可知，此处要用过去分词作后置定语，修饰The Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area。
5．a 考查冠词。destination为可数名词，且在此表示泛指，故填a。
6．their 考查代词。由后面的“underground cataract (急流)”可知，此处应用形容词性物主代词修饰名词。
7．featuring 考查非谓语动词。feature与其逻辑主语之间为主动关系，故此处用现在分词短语作状语，表示“以……为特色”。
8．which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处指代先行词12 state level tourist areas，且在定语从句中作介词of的宾语，故填which。
9．increasingly 考查副词。此处应用副词修饰形容词popular, increasingly表示“越来越多地，日益增加地”。
10．has been improving 考查时态。由于张家界长久以来不断地改善它的交通和服务，这个城市现在每天可以接待36 200名游客。根据时间状语for long可知，此处应用现在完成进行时表示过去开始的动作持续到现在并将继续下去。

Dear Rose，
I'm writing to ask you for some help.
A competition of singing English songs is to be held in our school this Friday and I'm going to represent our class. However, I don't know which song will be the most proper. I know you are good at singing and have taken part in several such competitions, so I'd like you to recommend one. In addition, I'm good at singing Chinese songs but I seldom sing English ones, so I'd like you to give me some advice on how to sing English songs. I would appreciate it very much.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours，
Li Hua
