(2020·云南省曲靖市第一中学高考复习质量监测(三))You
may
already
know
that
more
than
a
million
years
ago,
glaciers,
or
vast
blankets
of
moving
ice,
covered
one
third
of
the
earth.
You
also
may
know
tens
of
thousands
of
years
ago,
the
glaciers
started
to
melt,
retreating
to
their
current
position
in
the
Antarctic
and
Greenland.
You
may
even
know
that
glaciers
also
exist
in
all
the
world's
great
mountain
regions.
But
do
you
know
that
glaciers
cover
about
6
billion
square
miles
of
the
earth
and
store
about
75
percent
of
the
earth's
fresh
water?
A
glacier
forms
in
a
cold
climate
when
a
winter's
snow
does
not
completely
melt
during
the
following
summer.
Snow
continues
to
accumulate
and
partially
melt
year
after
year.
As
the
accumulated
snow
becomes
heavier,
the
lower
layers
crushes
under
the
weight
and
changes
into
ice.
Over
time,
the
mass
of
ice
thickens
and
moves.
The
ice
is
either
pulled
slowly
downhill
by
gravity—as
in
the
valley
glaciers
found
in
the
Alps,
on
the
Alaskan
coast,
and
in
the
Western
United
States—or
forced
outward
in
all
directions
by
its
own
weight—as
in
the
ice
sheets
and
icecaps
covering
most
of
Greenland
and
Antarctica.
During
the
glaciations
(冰川作用),
a
glacier
moves
(usually
about
3
feet
per
day).
It
picks
up
pieces
of
rock
that
cut
and
polish
the
land
and
carve
out
steep-side
valleys.
During
deglaciation
(冰消作用),
a
glacier
withdraws
and
often
leaves
large
deposits
of
sand
and
stones.
The
process
of
glaciation
and
deglaciation
formed
the
Great
Lakes
in
North
American
during
the
Ice
Ages.
Some
scientists
believe
that
ice
ages
similar
to
those
of
the
past
will
occur,
but
they
disagree
on
when
this
will
happen.
Other
scientists
think
that
global
warming
will
occur
instead,
melting
the
glaciers
and
flooding
areas
as
sea
levels
rise.
No
one
knows
for
certain
which
event
will
occur,
but
neither
predicts
well
for
mankind.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了冰川的一些情况。
1.What
happens
to
a
glacier
during
glaciation?
A.It
moves.
B.It
leaves
stones.
C.It
leaves
sand.
D.It
forms
the
Great
Lakes.
答案:A 细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第四句“During
the
glaciations
(冰川作用),
a
glacier
moves
(usually
about
3
feet
per
day).”可知选A。
2.What
will
happen
if
global
warming
occurs
instead
of
another
ice
age?
A.Vast
blankets
of
ice
will
cover
the
earth.
B.Glaciers
in
the
Antarctic
will
increase
in
size.
C.Plant
and
animal
life
in
many
related
areas
will
be
destroyed.
D.A
winter's
snow
may
not
completely
melt
during
the
following
summer.
答案:C 推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“Other
scientists
think
that
global
warming
will
occur
instead,
melting
the
glaciers
and
flooding
areas
as
sea
levels
rise.”可推理出全球变暖导致冰川融化,致使海平面上升,将淹没很多地区,因此,相关的动植物将受到毁灭性的打击。故选
C。
3.What
is
the
attitude
of
the
writer
towards
the
argument
between
scientists
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.Optimistic.
B.Objective.
C.Pessimistic.
D.Indifferent.
答案:B 推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“No
one
knows
for
certain
which
event
will
occur,
but
neither
predicts
well
for
mankind.”可知作者的态度是客观的。故选B。
4.What
is
this
passage
mainly
about?
A.The
Ice
Age.
B.Valley
glaciers.
C.Ice
sheets
and
ice
caps.
D.Glaciers.
答案:D 主旨大意题。本文介绍了冰川的各个相关方面。选项A、B、C
太过片面,只有选项D
与文章内容相吻合。故选D。
【词汇积累】 ①retreat
v.
退却;撤退 ②accumulate
v.
积累;积聚 ③crush
v.

【长难句分析】 Some
scientists
believe
that
ice
ages
similar
to
those
of
the
past
will
occur,
but
they
disagree
on
when

一些科学家认为,类似过去的冰河时代将会发生,但他们对何时会发生意见不一。
分析:此句是并列句。but连接两个分句,第一个分句中that引导宾语从句,其中similar
to
those
of
the
past为形容词短语作后置定语修饰ice
ages;第二个分句中,when引导宾语从句,作介词on的宾语。

Ⅲ.七选五
(2020·浙江省温州高三英语第一次模拟)The
cultures
of
the
East
and
the
West
really
distinguish
each
other
a
lot.
__1__
The
origin
of
the
Eastern
cultures
is
mainly
from
two
countries:
China
and
India.
Both
of
the
two
cultures
are
developed
by
rivers—the
Yellow
River
in
China
and
the
Hindu
River
in
India.
__2__
When
the
two
mother
rivers
gave
birth
to
the
Eastern
culture,
another
famous
culture
was
brought
up
on
the
Mesopotamian
Plain—the
Mesopotamian
Civilization.
This
civilization
later
on
developed
into
the
cultures
of
Ancient
Greece
and
Ancient
Rome.
__3__
Like
the
Chinese
culture,
the
European
culture
also
crossed
waters.
When
the
British
settled
down
in
America,
their
culture
went
with
them
over
the
Atlantic
Ocean.
So
the
American
culture
doesn't
distinguish
from
the
European
culture
a
lot.
__4__
Take
the
language
system
for
example.
In
the
East,
most
languages
belong
to
the
pictographic
language
while
the
Western
languages
are
mostly
based
on
the
Latin
system.
Other
causes
like
human
race
difference
counts
as
well.
But
what's
more,
due
to
the
far
distance
and
the
steep
areas
between
the
East
and
West,
the
two
cultures
seldom
communicate
until
recent
centuries.
So
they
grew
up
totally
in
their
own
ways
with
almost
no?interference
(干扰)
from
the
other.
The
differences
are
everywhere.
__5__
But
different
cultures
make
the
world
of
21st
century
more
colorful.
The
cultural
gap
should
not
be
the
obstacle
(障碍)
to
the
civilization
of
human
being.
It
ought
to
be
the
motivation
of
our
going
farther.
A.They
are
obvious
and
affect
people's
ways
of
thinking
and
their
views
of
the
world.
B.They
helped
the
two
cultures
develop
for
centuries
and
form
their
own
styles.
C.This
is
because
the
culture
systems
are
two
separate
systems
on
the
whole.
D.At
the
same
time,
some
other
differences
add
to
the
cultural
differences.
E.And
these
two
are
well?known
as
the
base
of
the
European
culture.
F.One
important
thing
is
to
learn
about
other
cultures.
G.Let
us
work
together
to
keep
a
variety
of
culture.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了东西方文化的起源、发展和它们之间的差异性。
1.C 前文提到东西方文化差异很大;下文开始具体讲述两种文化的不同之处;C项(这是因为文化系统在整体上是两个独立的系统)总述两种文化有差异的原因。故选C。
2.B 前一句提到这两种文化都是由沿河流域发展起来的,中国是黄河,印度是印度河;B项(它们帮助这两种文化历经世纪发展起来并形成自己的风格)与此是承接关系,符合语境。故选B。
3.E 前一句提到与此同时,另一种文化孕育于美索不达米亚平原——美索不达米亚文明,后来发展成古希腊文化和古罗马文化;E项(这两种文化是欧洲文化的根基)与此紧密衔接并对应。故选E。
4.D 由下文“Take
the
language
system
for
example.”和“Other
causes
like
human
race
difference
counts
as
well.”可知,本段讲的是其他的一些差异也造成了文化的差异。故选D。
5.A 前一句提到这些差异随处可见;结合选项可知,A项(它们很明显,而且影响人们的思维方式和世界观)进一步说明这些差异造成的影响,符合语境。故选A。
Ⅳ.概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Whenever
asked
what
my
favourite
place
is,
I
have
trouble
deciding
between
the
two:
the
American
Museum
of
Natural
History
and
the
Bronx
Zoo.
Of
course,
they
have
many
obvious
similarities—both
are
in
New
York
City,
and
both
attract
people
who
are
interested
in
animals—but
they
have
a
lot
of
differences
too.
Obviously,
the
zoo
is
outdoors,
and
the
animals
in
it
are
alive,
but
those
aren't
the
differences
I'm
talking
about.
Being
at
the
zoo
feels
different:
It's
hot,
there
are
bees
and
screaming
kids
everywhere,
and
the
smell
of
the
city
mixes
with
the
smells
of
animals
and
snack
food.
It's
just
so
full
of
life.
Even
as
a
kid,
I
found
it
was
more
delightful
than
going
to
a
rollercoaster
(过山车)
park
or
a
sporting
event.
The
museum,
on
the
other
hand,
fills
me
with
a
feeling
of
deep
respect.
It's
just
so
dark
and
cool
and
quiet,
with
its
high
ceilings
and
long
echoes
(回声).
Unlike
the
zoo,
which
is
always
changing,
the
museum
is
basically
the
same
every
time
you
go.
The
same
animals
have
been
frozen
in
the
same
positions
since
my
grandfather
was
little;
it
seems
that
the
staff
never
change
them.
I
can
remember
going
to
both
places
often
as
a
child,
but
even
those
trips
were
different
from
each
other.
I
would
go
to
the
zoo
in
summer
on
a
car
trip,
along
with
my
whole
family,
but
the
museum
was
a
special
wintertime
thing
between
my
dad
and
me,
and
the
two
of
us
would
take
the
train—which
was
exciting
in
itself—rather
than
drive.
I've
lived
all
over
the
country,
but
I've
tried
to
visit
both
places
at
least
once
every
year
in
my
whole
life.
Although
the
zoo
and
the
museum
are
both
fun,
the
real
reason
why
I
love
them
is
that
they
give
me
knowledge
and
hope.

2 Cloning
课时作业
Ⅰ.阅读
A
(2020·大同市高三学情调研测试试题)China
has
become
the
first
country
to
clone
a
monkey
using
non-reproductive
cells,
reducing
the
need
to
keep
lab
monkeys
and
paving
the
way
for
more
accurate,
effective,
and
affordable
animal
tests
for
new
drugs.
By
December
of
2017,
Chinese
scientists
had
created
two
clone
macaques
named
“Zhong
Zhong”
and
“Hua
Hua”
by
nuclear
transfer
of
somatic
cells—any
cell
in
the
organism
other
than
reproductive
cells.
This
was
the
similar
technology
used
to
create
the
famous
clone
sheep
Dolly
in
1996.
“Cloning
a
monkey
using
somatic
cells
has
been
a
worldclass
challenge
because
it
is
a
primate
(灵长类)
that
shares
its
genetic
makeup
with
humans.”
Pu
Muming
said.
“For
drug
and
other
lab
tests,
scientists
have
to
purchase
monkeys
from
all
over
the
world,
which
is
costly,
bad
for
the
environment
and
produces
inaccurate
results
because
each
monkey
might
have
different
genes,”
Pu
said.
“By
cloning
monkeys
using
somatic
cells,
we
can
produce
large
numbers
of
genetically
identical
(相同的)
offspring
in
a
short
time,
and
even
change
their
genes
to
suit
our
needs,”
he
added.
“This
can
save
time,
cut
down
experiment
costs,
and
produce
more
accurate
results,
leading
to
more
effective
medicine.”
“This
achievement
will
help
China
lead
the
world
research
in
an
international
science
project
related
to
neural
(神经的)
mapping
of
primate
brains,”
he
said.
“However,
biology
labs
from
the
United
States,
Japan,
and
European
countries
are
also
very
able,
and
they
will
quickly
catch
up
with
China
after
the
monkey
cloning
technology
is
made
public,”
Sun
Qiang
added.
“This
means
we
have
to
innovate
continuously
and
work
extra
hard
this
year
to
stay
ahead,”
he
said.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。中国科学家使用非生殖细胞成功地克隆了猴子,成为世界上第一个使用非生殖细胞克隆灵长类动物的国家。这项科研成果为更准确、更有效、更经济的新药动物试验铺平了道路。

B.It
creates
two
monkeys
at
a
time.
C.It
adopts
a
method
of
embryo
splitting.
D.It
uses
non-reproductive
cells.
答案:D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“China
has
become
the
first
country
to
clone
a
monkey
using
non-reproductive
cells”可知,中国克隆猴的特别之处在于其使用了非生殖细胞,故D项正确。
2.Why

clone
monkeys?
A.To
keep
monkeys
from
being
endangered.
B.To
test
new
medicines
on
them.
C.To
find
the
side
effects
of
medicines.
D.To
find
a
cure
for
mental
diseases.
答案:B 推理判断题。根据第四段的内容以及第五段最后一句可知,使用克隆猴可以节约时间,缩减实验费用,产生更精确的结果,进而生产更有效的药物。据此可推知,科学家克隆猴子是为了在它们身上试用新药,故B项正确。
3.What
Sun
said
in
the
last
paragraph
suggests
________.
A.they
are
determined
to
catch
up
with
America
B.they
try
to
avoid
competition
from
other
countries
C.they
aren't
satisfied
with
what
they
have
achieved
D.they
have
to
keep
the
monkey
cloning
technology
a
secret
答案:C 推理判断题。根据本文末句Sun说的话可知,Sun认为,他们必须不断创新,格外努力工作,以保持技术的先进性。据此可推知,他们并不满足于已取得的成就,故C项正确。

B
A
recent
announcement
by
scientists
that
they
have
successfully
cloned
the
first
human
embryo
(胚胎)
has
caused
much
debate
and
has
shocked
many
people
around
the
world.
On
the
one
hand,
some
scientists
point
out
that
if
you
clone
an
embryo,
you
can
produce
valuable
tissues
and
organs
that
could
be
used
to
save
human
lives.
On
the
other
hand,
many
people,
including
some
scientists,
disagree
and
fear
that
if
mankind
interferes
with
nature
in
this
way,
they
may
be
on
their
way
to
producing
a
real-life
Frankenstein's
monster.
Cloning
is
producing
an
exact
copy
of
a
plant
or
an
animal
using
its
cells.
The
first
mammal
to
be
cloned
successfully
from
an
adult
cell
was
Dolly—the
sheep.
She
was
born
in
1996
and
died
in
early
2003,
at
a
much
younger
age
than
normal.
When
she
was
born,
many
people
were
angry
because
they
thought
cloning
would
create
more
diseases
in
the
animal
world.
However,
in
general
the
scientists
were
praised
for
their
wonderful
scientific
breakthrough.
The
Scottish
scientist
who
created
Dolly,
Ian
Wilmut,
thinks
research
efforts
should
concentrate
on
creating
new
tissues
and
organs
that
could
eventually
be
used
to
cure
diseases
like
cancer.
However,
some
people
consider
that
cloning
human
embryos
with
the
intention
of
destroying
them
shows
no
respect
for
human
life.
While
cloning
human
embryos
is
illegal
in
many
countries,
some
scientists
are
already
pushing
ahead
with
research
so
as
to
deliver
a
cloned
human
baby.
Severino
Antinori,
an
Italian
doctor,
is
one
of
the
leaders
in
this
kind
of
research.
In
China,
scientists
have
focused
their
efforts
on
cloning
animals,
as
well
as
stem
cells
to
be
used
in
medical
research.
China
has
succeeded
in
producing
clones
of
cows
and
goats,
and
continues
to
research
ways
in
which
cloning
can
benefit
mankind.

4.What
can
we
learn
about
cloning
according
to
the
passage?
A.Cloning
technology
can
only
be
applied
to
animals.
B.A
cloned
animal
can
live
longer
than
a
normal
one.
C.People
all
over
the
world
are
happy
about
the
birth
of
Dolly.
D.Cloning
can
produce
valuable
tissues
and
organs
to
cure
human
diseases.
答案:D 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句中的“some
scientists
point
out
that
if
you
clone
an
embryo,
you
can
produce
valuable
tissues
(组织)
and
organs
that
could
be
used
to
save
human
lives”和第三段首句可知,克隆技术可以生产有价值的组织和器官用以治愈人类疾病。故选D项。根据第二段首句可知A项错误;从第二段Dolly的例子可知克隆的动物不如正常的动物寿命长,故B项错误;C项与原文第二段的第四句话相悖。
5.The
reasons
why
people
are
anti-cloning
include
the
following
EXCEPT
that
________.
A.cloning
may
produce
a
real-life
Frankenstein's
monster
B.cloning
might
create
more
diseases
in
the
animal
world
C.cloning
can't
help
those
who
want
to
clone
their
dead
children
D.cloning
human
embryos
shows
no
respect
for
human
life
答案:C 细节理解题。根据文中第一段第三句中的“they
may
be
on
their
way
to
producing
a
real-life
Frankenstein's
monster”提到克隆技术可能会产生出失控的怪物;第二段第四句“When
she
was
born,
many
people
were
angry
because
they
thought
cloning
would
create
more
diseases
in
the
animal
world.”提到克隆动物可能会带来病毒;第三段最后一句“However,
some
people
consider
that
cloning
human
embryos
with
the
intention
of
destroying
them
shows
no
respect
for
human
life.”提到克隆人类胚胎是对人类生命的不尊重。文中未提及C项,故选C。
6.What
can
be
inferred
from
the
last
two
paragraphs?
A.If
we
interfere
with
nature,
we
will
change
the
world
to
be
what
we
want.
B.It
is
impossible
to
clone
babies
for
women
who
cannot
have
ones.
C.Cloning
human
beings
is
illegal
in
many
countries,
so
no
scientists
want
to
do
so.
D.Whether
cloning
human
embryos
is
legal
or
not
remains
a
matter
of
debate.
答案:D 推理判断题。通过倒数第二段第一句“While
cloning
human
embryos
is
illegal
in
many
countries,
some
scientists
are
already
pushing
ahead
with
research
so
as
to
deliver
a
cloned
human
baby.”可知,虽然克隆人体胚胎在很多国家还不被认可,但是有些科学家已经开始了这方面的研究。由此可推断出,对于克隆人体胚胎是否合法现在还是一个存在争议的问题。故选D。
7.Which
of
the
following
would
be

is
illegal
in
many
countries,
some
scientists
are
already
pushing
ahead
with
research
so
as
to
deliver
a
cloned
human
baby.
虽然克隆人体胚胎在许多国家都是非法的,但一些科学家已经在推进研究,以便生产出克隆的人类婴儿。
分析:此句是主从复合句。While
cloning
human
embryos
is
illegal
in
many
countries是让步状语从句,cloning
human
embryos是动名词作主语;some
scientists
are
already
pushing
ahead
with
research
so
as
to
deliver
a
cloned
human
baby是主句,其中so
as
to
deliver
a
cloned
human
baby是不定式短语作目的状语。
C
Gene
technology
is
a
kind
of
science
focusing
on
the
research
of
human
genes,
which
is
drawing
more
and
more
attention
now.
The
greatest
thing
that
gene
technology
can
do
is
to
cure
serious
diseases
that
doctors
at
present
can
almost
do
nothing
with,
such
as
cancer
and
heart
disease.
Every
year,
millions
of
people
are
murdered
by
these_two_killers.
And
to
date,
doctors
have
not
found
an
effective
way
to
cure
them.
But
if
the
gene
technology
is
applied,
not
only
can
these
two
diseases
be
cured
completely,
but
also
the
great
amount
of
money
people
spend
on
curing
their
diseases
can
be
saved,
therefore
it
benefits
the
economy
as
well.
In
addition,
human
lifespan
can
be
prolonged.
Gene
technology
can
help
people
to
give
birth
to
more
healthy
and
clever
children.
Some
families,
with
the
English
royal
family
being
a
good
example,
have
hereditary
(遗传性的)
diseases.
This
means
their
children
will
for
sure
have
the
family
disease,
which
is
a
great
trouble
for
these
families.
In
the
past,
doctors
could
do
nothing
about
hereditary
diseases.
But
gene
technology
can
solve
this
problem
perfectly.
Scientists
just
need
to
find
the
wrong
gene
and
correct
it,
and
a
healthy
child
will
be
born.
Some
people
are
worrying
that
the
gene
research
can
be
used
to
produce
human
beings
in
large
quantities.
But
I
believe
cloned
babies
will
not
come
out
in
large
quantities,
for
most
couples
in
the
world
can
have
their
babies
in
a
very
normal
way.
Of
course,
the
governments
must
take
care
to
control
gene
technology.

families,
with
the
English
royal
family
being
a
good
example,
have
hereditary
(遗传性的)
diseases.”和第五句“But
gene
technology

solve
this
problem
perfectly.”可知,这一段主要介绍了基因技术可以治疗遗传病的情况,故选C。
10.In

答案:B 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Scientists
just
need
to
find
the
wrong
gene
and
correct
it,
and
a
healthy
child
will
be
born.”可知,利用基因技术治疗遗传病的主要方法是找出错误的基因然后纠正它,故选B。

Ⅲ.七选五
(2020·吉林省梅河口市高三上学期联考)The
history
of
writing
instruments,
with
which
humans
have
recorded
and
conveyed
thoughts
and
feelings,
is
the
history
of
civilization
itself.
This
is
how
we
know
about
our
ancestors
and
their
life.
The
handy
sharpened?stone
was
adapted
into
the
first
writing
instrument.
Around
24000
BC,
the
cave
man
started
drawing
pictures
with
the
stone
onto
the
walls
of
his
cave.
__1__
Walls
at
the
Apollo
site
in
Namibia
are
believed
to
be
the
oldest
rock
paintings
to
date.
Before
paper
came
along,
people
used
clay
or
wax
tablets
on
which
they
wrote
with
sharp
objects
such
as
metal
sticks
or
bones.
Around
6,000
years
ago,
the
Egyptians
invented
the
first
paperlike
material
called
papyrus.
The
word
“paper”
actually
comes
from
the
word
“papyrus”.
__2__
Bones
or
metal
sticks
were
no
longer
useful
as
the
papyrus
could
not
be
scratched.
So
the
Egyptians
created
a
reed?pen
perfect
for
the
papyrus.
__3__
And
thus,
ancient
Egyptians
transformed
bamboo
stems
(茎)
into
an
early
form
of
a
fountain
pen.
Another
writing
instrument
that
remained
active
in
history
for
a
long
period
was
the
quill
(鹅毛)
pen.
Introduced
around
700
AD,
the
quill
was
a
pen
made
from
a
bird
feather.
Goose
feathers
were
most
common.
__4__
For
making
fine
line
drawings,
crow
feathers
were
the
best.
When
writers
had
better
inks
and
paper
and
handwriting
had
developed
into
both
an
art
form
and
an
everyday
occurrence,
man's
inventive
nature
once
again
turned
to
improving
the
writing
instrument.
__5__
A.Now
something
was
needed
to
write
upon
the
papyrus.
B.The
papyrus
became
the
most
popular
material
at
that
time.
C.Swan
feathers
were
of
high
quality,
being
rare
and
most
expensive.
D.Bamboo
stems
were
better
and
much
more
expensive
than
goose
feathers.
E.This
led
to
the
development
of
the
modem
fountain
pen
in
the
19th
century.
F.These
were
mostly
the
stems
of
grasses,
especially
from
the
bamboo
plant.
G.These
drawings
showed
events
in
daily
life
like
the
planting
of
crops
or
hunting
victories.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了改进书写工具的发展。
1.G 上文提示“大约公元前24000年,穴居人开始用石头在洞穴的墙上画画。”再根据下文提示“纳米比亚阿波罗遗址的墙壁被认为是迄今为止最古老的岩画。”因此,G项“These
drawings
showed
events
in
daily
life
like
the
planting
of
crops
or
hunting
victories.(这些图画展示了日常生活中的事件,如种植庄稼或打猎的胜利。)”承上启下,切题。故选G。
2.A 下文提示“由于纸莎草纸不能被划破,骨头或金属棒不再有用。”因此,A项“Now
something
was
needed
to
write
upon
the
papyrus.(现在需要一些工具,以便可以在纸莎草纸上书写。)”引起下文,切题。故选A。
3.F 上文提示“因此,埃及人创造了一种芦苇笔,完美地用于纸莎草纸。”;下文提示“古埃及把竹子的茎转化成早期自来水笔的形式。”因此,F项“These
were
mostly
the
stems
of
grasses,
especially
from
the
bamboo
plant.(这些主要是草的茎,尤其是竹子的茎。)”承上启下,切题。故选F。
4.C 上文提示“最常见的是鹅毛。”因此,C项“Swan
feathers
were
of
high
quality,
being
rare
and
most
expensive.
(天鹅羽毛质量很好,既稀有又昂贵。)”承接上文,切题。故选C。
5.E 上文提示“当作家们有了更好的纸墨以及书法发展成为一种艺术形式和日常生活的一部分时,人类的创造性再一次转向改进书写工具。”因此,E项“This
led
to
the
development
of
the
modem
fountain
pen
in
the
19th
century.(这导致了现代钢笔在19世纪的发展。)”承接上文,切题。故选E。
Ⅳ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
There
have
been
many
great
inventions,
which
have
changed
the
way
we
live.
The
first
great
invention
was
one
that
is
still
very
important
today—the
wheel.
This
made
it
easier
to
carry
heavy
things
and
to
travel
long
distances.
For
hundreds
of
years
after
that
there
were
few
inventions
that
had
as
much
effect
as
the
wheel.
Then
in
the
early
1800's
the
world
started
to
change.
There
was
little
unknown
land
in
the
world.
People
did
not
have
to
explore
any
more.
They
began
to
work
so
as
to
make
life
better.
In
the
second
half
of
the
19th
century
many
great
inventions
were
made.
Among
them
were
the
camera,
the
electric
light
and
the
radio.
These
all
became
a
big
part
of
our
life
today.
The
first
part
of
the
20th
century
saw
more
great
inventions:
the
helicopter
in
1909;
movies
with
sound
in
1926;
the
computer
in
1928;
and
jet
planes
in
1930.
This
was
also
a
time
when
a
new
material
was
first
made.
Nylon
came
out
in
1935.
It
changed
the
kind
of
clothes
people
had
been
wearing.
The
middle
part
of
the
20th
century
brought
new
ways
to
help
people
get
over
diseases.
They
worked
very
well.
They
made
people
healthier
and
let
them
live
longer
lives.
By
the
1960's
most
people
could
expect
to
live
at
least
60.
By
this
time
most
people
had
a
very
good
life.
Of
course
new
inventions
continued
to
be
made.
But
man
now
had
a
desire
to
explore
again.
The
world
was
known
to
human
beings
but
the
stars
were
not.
Man
began
to
look
for
ways
to
go
into
space.
Russia
made
the
first
step.
Then
the
United
States
took
a
step.
Since
then
other
countries,
including
China
and
Japan,
have
made
their
steps
into
space.
In
1969
man
took
his
biggest
step
away
from
the
earth.
Americans
first
walked
on
the
moon.
This
is
certainly
just
a
beginning
though.
New
inventions
in
the
future
will
allow
us
to
do
things
we
have
never
dreamt
of.
In
the
20th
century,
the
invention
of
the
spacecraft
has
made
the
world
smaller,
The
21st
century
is
known
as
the
Internet
era.
写前导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人类历史不同阶段的主要发明成果。
[精彩范文]
In
the
20th
century,
the
invention
of
the
spacecraft
has
made
the
world
smaller,
the
space
device
has
led
people
to
move
towards
the
universe,
and
the
exploration
of
the
universe
has
made
us
know
more
about
the
outside
world.
The
20th
century
is
also
the
age
of
information
technology.
The
popularity
of
mass
media,
such
as
the
radio,
the
television
and
the
film,
has
a
huge
impact
on
human
beings.
They
can
entertain
the
public,
and
meanwhile
spread
all
kinds
of
information.
Towards
the
end
of
the
20th
century,
the
rise
of
the
Internet
has
greatly
affected
our
life.
The
21st
century
is
known
as
the
Internet
era.
It
is
also
the
age
of
global
e-commerce,
so
our
daily
work,
study,
life,
entertainment,
business,
etc.,
must
be
related
to
the
network.
The
rapid
development
of
the
Internet
shows
great
promise
and
unique
significance.

B
(2020·河北衡水中学高三第一次联考)Lebanese
filmmaker
Nadine
Labaki
has
become
the
first
female
artist
in
the
Arab
world
to
be
nominated
(提名)
for
an
Academy
Award,
or
Oscar.
Labaki
directed
the
film
Capernaum,
a
film
about
a
Syrian
refugee
(难民)
boy
and
a
Kenyan
baby
who
live
without
parents
on
the
streets
of
Beirut.
It
was
nominated
for
best
foreign
language
film.
Labaki
will
be
one
of
the
few
female
directors
to
compete
for
an
Oscar
this
year.
She
told
The
Associated
Press
“I
wish
there
were
a
lot
more
women
filmmakers
this
year
represented,
nominated
in
the
Oscars.
But
I
am
sure
in
a
few
years
we
won't
be
having
this
problem
anymore.”
Unlike
in
the
West,
women
filmmakers
are
industry
leaders
in
Lebanon.
Capernaum
received
a
15?minute
standing
ovation
(热烈欢迎)
at
this
year's
Cannes
Film
Festival.
It
won
the
Jury
Prize—the
third?highest
award
given
at
Cannes.
The
United
Nations
has
publicly
praised
the
film.
Lebanon's
Foreign
Minister
said
Capernaum
put
a
Lebanese
touch
on
the
international
film
industry.
The
Oscar
nomination
of
Capernaum
is
the
second
for
Lebanon
in
two
years
in
the
film
group.
It
demonstrates
the
country's
rising
star
power.
Labaki
called
making
the
movie
a
life?changing
experience.
She
said
Capernaum
helps
humanize
the
real
struggles
of
refugees
only
briefly
talked
about
in
the
news.
“We
can't
help
but
acknowledge
that
there
is
a
fear
of
refugees
in
general
around
the
world
and
there
are
these
walls
we
are
building,
and
this
fear
keeps
growing,”
Labaki
said.
Capernaum
will
compete
against
four
other
films
for
the
Oscar,
including
awards
season
favorite
Roma.
Directed
by
Mexico's
Alfonso
Cuaron,
it
earned
10
Oscar
nominations,
including
for
best
picture.
篇章导读:本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了黎巴嫩女导演Nadine
Labaki及其导演的电影Capernaum的相关情况。
4.Where
does
Labaki
come
from?
A.Syria.
B.Kenya.
C.Lebanon.
D.Mexico.
答案:C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Lebanese
filmmaker”可知,Nadine
Labaki是黎巴嫩人,故答案为C。
5.What
do
we
know
from
Labaki's
words
in
Paragraph
3?
A.Few
women
directors
have
been
nominated
in
the
Oscars.
B.She
was
the
first
female
artist
to
compete
for
an
Oscar.
C.More
women
directors
will
enter
for
Oscar
this
year.
D.Female
directors
have
problems
with
their
films.
答案:A 推理判断题。根据Labaki的话可知,她希望今年能有更多的女导演被提名奥斯卡奖,并希望今后不再有类似问题。由此可以推断近几年没有几位女性导演被提名奥斯卡奖,故答案为A。
6.Which
of
the
following
best
describes
Capernaum?
A.It
is
the
best
foreign
language
film.
B.It
shows
the
rising

I
learnt
about
the
Pygmalion
effect
(皮格马利翁效应)
when
I
was
7
years
old
at
Riverdale
School
in
Palmerston
North
and
I
copied
Melissa
Crawford's
answers
in
a
spelling
test.
Before
that
I
was
average
at
school
but
after
that,
because
Melissa
Crawford
was
smart,
and
I
got
all
the
right
answers,
I
got
put
in
all
the
smart
kids
groups.
From
then
I
did
really
well
at
school
because
it
was
believed
by
the
teachers
that
I
would
and
I
also
got
grouped
with
the
smart
kids.
This
experience
that
occurred
at
my
primary
school
shows
just
how
important
the
Pygmalion
effect
is
in
terms
of
being
around
mentors
(导师)
that
expect
that
you're
going
to
do
well
and
also
being
around
people
who
are
smart.
Yesterday
this
site
had
over
5,000
unique
visitors
and
the
traffic
to
it
is
increasing
all
the
time.
A
year
ago
I
contacted
a
group
of
people
who
got
lots
of
traffic
in
their
sites
and
I
learnt
from
them.
Truthfully
I
don't
know
if
they
expected
me
to
start
getting
decent
traffic
to
websites
but
I
imagined
they
did
so
they
might
as
well
have.
So
there
you
have
it
the
Pygmalion
effect.
P.S.
My
grammar
and
spelling
are
not
that
great
nowadays
but
that's
actually
completely
irrelevant
(不相关的)
when
it
comes
to
getting
lots
of
visitors
to
your
site.

【长难句分析】 Truthfully
I
don't

if
they

me
to
start
getting

traffic
to

but
I

老实说,我不知道他们是否希望我开始获得网站的流量,但我想象他们是希望的,他们也可能已经这么希望了。
分析:此句为并列句。but连接两个并列句,前一分句中I
don't
know是主句;if
they
expected
me
to
start
getting
decent
traffic
to
websites是宾语从句;后一分句中but
I
imagined
they
did
so
they
might
as
well
have中又是一个由so连接的并列句,其中they
did是imagined的宾语从句。

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了吃土的减肥效果可能比吃减肥药的效果好,并给出了得出该结论的过程。
1.compared 考查非谓语动词。句意:澳大利亚的一个研究团队声称,吃土可能比吃减肥药的效果还好。分析句子可知,compare与“eating
soil”属于逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词形式compared。
2.reported 考查动词的时态。分析句子可知,本句缺谓语,与其主语“ChinaPress”为主谓关系,陈述过去的事情,故用一般过去时reported。
3.accidentally 考查词性转换。修饰动词find用副词,故用accidentally。
4.the 考查冠词。消化系统为特指,故用定冠词the。
5.separating 考查非谓语动词。by为介词,后接动词-ing形式,故用separating。
6.was/were
given 考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子可知,本句缺谓语,give与group之间为动宾关系,group既可以作单数,故用was
given;也可以表示一组老鼠,故也可用复数形式were
given。
7.which/that 考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子可知,“ate
soil”作限制性定语从句修饰先行词mice,从句缺主语,故用关系代词which或者that。
8.easier 考查形容词的比较级。本句为“make
it+形容词”结构,
根据后文的than可知,本句为比较级结构,故用比较级形式easier。
9.have
been
testing 考查动词的时态。分析本句的“in
the
past
few
months”可知,研究人员过去几个月都在做此事,且test与其主语they之间为主谓关系,故用现在完成进行时have
been
testing。
10.or 考查连词。分析句子可知,前后句为选择关系,故用连词or。
