D
解析
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的“Around
1900,with
the
discovery
of
a
library
of
thousands
of
ancient
documents,the
caves
received
new
interest
from
Chinese
and
foreign
researchers.”可知,大約在20世紀初,莫高窟重新引起了中外研究人員的興趣。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ2.Whatistheauthor’spurposeinmentioningtheartistsinthe1940s?A.Tolearnabouttheirworks.B.Toshowhowhardtheyworked.C.Tocomparetheirdifferentstyles.D.Toappreciatetheircontributions.答案
D
解析
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“In
the
1940s,many
researchers
and
artists...was
formed
to
protect
and
study
the
Mogao
Grottoes.”可知,20世紀40年代,許多研究人員和藝術(shù)家通過他們的努力,讓人們了解了敦煌。由此推知,文章提及20世紀40年代的藝術(shù)家們是為了贊賞他們在傳承莫高窟文化上的貢獻。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ3.Whenpeoplehavenoaccesstovisitingthecaves,

A.theycandoresearchesonlineB.theycanenjoythedigitalversionsC.theycanwatchcopiesinartgalleriesD.theycanstudytheminforeignmuseums答案
B
解析
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的“While
the
caves
are
open
to
the
public,access
is
now
limited
in
order
to
protect
the
artwork.However,the
caves
can
be
seen
online
in
digital
form
so
that
people
around
the
world
can
study
and
enjoy
them.”可知,為了保護藝術(shù)品,現(xiàn)在莫高窟被限制進入,然而,人們可以在網(wǎng)上以數(shù)字模型的形式看到、研究和欣賞它們。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ4.Whichofthefollowingcanbeasuitabletitleforthetext?A.TheMogaoGrottoes—CenterofBuddhistLifeB.TheMogaoGrottoes—ArtGalleryintheDesertC.RespectedArtists—ProtectorsoftheMogaoGrottoesD.AnAmazingTouristAttraction—TheMogaoGrottoes答案
B
解析
主旨大意題。通讀全文可知,文章在第一段講述了莫高窟重新獲得人們關(guān)注的原因;第二段提及20世紀40年代的藝術(shù)家們在傳承莫高窟文化上所做的努力,贊賞了他們的貢獻;第三段講述莫高窟被列為聯(lián)合國世界文化遺產(chǎn);第四段講述了莫高窟的藝術(shù)價值。因此,本文主要介紹了沙漠中的藝術(shù)長廊——莫高窟。故選B項。ⅠⅡⅢⅣBTheRomanColosseum(羅馬圓形大劇場),builtaroundtwothousandyearsago,surviveda14thcenturyearthquakeandmostofthe150-somefoothighbuildingisstillstanding.IthasseentheriseandfallofenormousstructuresaswellastheRomanEmpire.Whycouldtheancientstructurestandthetestoftimewhilemanymodernconstructionsfallapartafterafewdecades?ScientistsbelievetheancientRomansusedaspecificconcretewhichmayaccountforitssuper-longexistence.ⅠⅡⅢⅣPreviousdiscoverieshaveconfirmedthecomponentsoftheRomanconcrete:volcanicmaterial,limestone(石灰石)andwater.Architectssupposethevolcanicmaterialiswhatmakesthebuildingstrong.Butthisisnotenoughtoexplainthearchitecture’sdurability.AteamofresearchersrecentlydiscoveredamagicalpoweroftheRomanconcrete:self-healing.Andthekeyactuallyliesinthetinypiecesoflimestone.Worthmentioningisthatresearchershadtakenthemasimpurities(雜質(zhì))duetothelimitationofancienttechnology.ButitturnedoutthatancientRomansseemedtohavediscoveredthesecret.ⅠⅡⅢⅣWhentheRomansmadethemixture,theyheatedupthelimestonetoturnitintoquicklime,averyreactivechemical.Quicklimereactedwithwaterandproducedheatthatsetupachemicalfoundationtostrengthenthebuildingmaterial.Meanwhile,itwould“wear”ahard“shell”,forminglimestonepieces.Itwasthesepiecesthatstoppedthecracks(裂縫)frombecomingbigger.Whentherewasrain,thepiecesreactedwithwateragain,quicklyfillingthecracks.FormaterialscientistAinissaRamirez,thisnewunderstandingofancientRomanconcreteisawelcomediscovery.“Thisisonewaythatthematerialcanbegreener,”saysRamirez,“TheRomansmadethematerial.Wehadtokindoffigureouthowtheydiditsothatwecanmakebettermaterials—andthen,youknow,inturn,bebetterguardsofourenvironment.”ⅠⅡⅢⅣ【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了羅馬斗獸場,它建于大約兩千年前,在14世紀的一場地震中幸存下來,大部分150多英尺高的建筑仍然屹立不倒。它見證了巨大建筑和羅馬帝國的興衰。為什么古代建筑能經(jīng)受住時間的考驗,而許多現(xiàn)代建筑在幾十年后就倒塌了?科學(xué)家認為,古羅馬人使用了一種特殊的混凝土,這可能是它長久存在的原因。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ5.WhycouldRomanColosseumstillexistaccordingtothetext?A.Itwasrebuiltconstantly.B.Itmetfewnaturaldisasters.C.Itcontainedaspecialmaterial.D.Itsshapeincreasedthestability.答案
C
解析
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的“Scientists
believe
the
ancient
Romans
used
a
specific
concrete
which
may
account
for
its
super-long
existence.”可知,羅馬斗獸場還能存在的原因是它含有一種特殊的材料。故選C項。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ6.Whatisthefunctionofthelimestonepieces?A.Topurifytheconcrete.B.Toreactwithvolcanicmaterial.C.Tomakethestructurewater-proof.D.Toenablethebuildingtorepairitself.答案
D
解析
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的“A
team
of
researchers
recently
discovered
a
magical
power
of
the
Roman
concrete:self-healing.And
the
key
actually
lies
in
the
tiny
pieces
of
limestone.”可知,石灰石的功能是使建筑能夠自我修復(fù)。故選D項。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ7.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“it”inparagraph3referto?A.Therainwater.
B.Thefoundation.C.Thequicklime. D.Thelimestone.答案
C
解析
詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第三段的“Quicklime
reacted
with
water
and
produced
heat
that
set
up
a
chemical
foundation
to
strengthen
the
building
material.”以及畫線單詞所在句中的“Meanwhile”可知,畫線單詞it指的就是上文提到的生石灰。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ8.WhatcanbeinferredfromAinissaRamirez’swords?A.Architectscangetinspirationfromancientstructures.B.TheRomans’buildingmethodremainsasecrettillnow.C.Romans’wisdomthrowslightoneco-friendlyarchitecture.D.Scientistsareexploringhowtoguardtheancientcivilization.答案
C
解析
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的“We

how
they
did
it
so
that
we
can
make

then,you

Ramirez的話中我們可以推斷出羅馬人的智慧為環(huán)保建筑提供了啟示。Ⅱ.七選五ⅠⅡⅢⅣNew

【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了越南武廣國家公園及其里面新物種的相關(guān)情況。1.B
由下文“It
is
in
an
area
that
is
hard
to
get
to,for
one
thing.And
it’s
an
area
that’s
difficult
to
walk
through
because
the
rocks
are
covered
with
algae
and
are
very
slippery.”和普通公園易到達的常識可知,武廣國家公園難以到達,和普通公園不一樣,B項“然而,武廣不是一個普通的公園”切合語境。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ2.D
由上文“It
is
in
an
area
that
is
hard
to
get
to,for
one
thing.And
it’s
an
area
that’s
difficult
to
walk
through
because
the
rocks
are
covered
with
algae
and
are
very
slippery.”可知,武廣國家公園難以到達,不同尋常,下文“In
the
last
twenty
years,several
new
species
of
animals
that
have
never
been
seen
anywhere
in
the
world
before
have
been
discovered
there.Some
of
them
are
so
new
that
scientists
haven’t
given
them
official
names
yet!”介紹武廣國家公園里面發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些聞所未聞的新物種,這也是不同尋常之處,由此可知,該空應(yīng)該進一步提及武廣國家公園的不平凡之處。D項“但這并不是武廣國家公園的全部不同尋常之處”切合語境。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ3.E
由上文“The
new
animals
discovered
at
the
park
include
the
Vu
Quang
ox
or
Saola,a
‘slow’deer,a
giant
muntjac
(the
world’s
largest,in
fact),a
black
deer
and
a
‘holy’goat.”和下文“as
well
as
two
species
of
amphibians
and
15
species
of
reptiles”可知,該空和上下文列舉了武廣國家公園里面發(fā)現(xiàn)的新物種,E項“在那里還發(fā)現(xiàn)了五種新的魚類”切合語境。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ4.G
由上文“The
Saola
was
the
first
new
species
of
large
mammal
to
be
discovered
in
more
than
fifty
years,so
it
caused
a
lot
of
excitement
in
the
scientific
world.It
is
a
strange
goat-like
creature
that
looks
as
if
it
is
somehow
related
to
cattle.It
has
horns
that
can
be
between
one
and
two
feet
long,and
that
seem
to
come
out
of
the
animal’s
head
at
slightly
different
angles.”可知,此段對Saola的外貌進行描述,故該空應(yīng)承接上文繼續(xù)介紹Saola的相關(guān)情況,G項“這就是為什么它被稱為‘Saola’,在越南語中的意思是‘紡車樁’”切合語境。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ5.C
由上文“The
creature
had
hidden
safely
for
generations
in
the
Vu
Quang
area.But
once
it
was
discovered,it
was
in
danger.”和下文“Sadly,the
Saola
is
now
being
hunted
and
may
well
end
up
as
another
endangered
species.”可知,Saola處于危險之中,空格處和下文構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系,正是因為獵人不尊重新物種,Saola才會被獵殺,C項“獵人不尊重新物種”切合語境。Ⅲ.語法填空ⅠⅡⅢⅣHuizhouenjoysatime-honoredhistory.In2000,XidiandthenearbyHongcunvillageweredeclaredWorldHeritagesitesbyUNESCOfortheiroutstandingpreservationofruralarchitecture1.

toⅠⅡⅢⅣ答案及解析
【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。由于對明清時期鄉(xiāng)村建筑的出色保存,西遞和附近的宏村被聯(lián)合國教科文組織宣布為世界遺產(chǎn),文章對其具有歷史特色的鄉(xiāng)村建筑進行了介紹。1.dating
考查非謂語動詞。句意:2000年,因為對明清時期鄉(xiāng)村建筑的出色保存,西遞和附近的宏村被聯(lián)合國教科文組織宣布為世界遺產(chǎn)。date
back意為“追溯到”,和邏輯主語architecture構(gòu)成主動關(guān)系,所以應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在分詞形式作后置定語。故填dating。2.allowing
考查非謂語動詞。句意:此外,徽州房屋重視日光,這體現(xiàn)在開放的室內(nèi)庭院的建筑上,這可以讓陽光進入房間。動詞allow意為“允許”,和邏輯主語“open
interior
courtyards”構(gòu)成主動關(guān)系,所以應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在分詞形式。故填allowing。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ3.and
考查連詞。句意:現(xiàn)在,走在那里的青石街道上,游客可以欣賞到獨特的徽州風格的房子,白墻、黑瓦、分層的馬頭屋頂,感覺自己沉浸在一幅傳統(tǒng)的中國水墨畫中?!癱an
appreciate”和“feel
like”構(gòu)成并列關(guān)系,故填and。4.symbolic
考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。句意:16世紀,為紀念明朝官員胡文光,西遞村入口處有一座象征性的牌坊,胡文光出生于西遞村,為當?shù)氐慕逃蜕嬜龀隽司薮筘暙I。此處作定語應(yīng)用形容詞。故填symbolic。5.was
built
考查一般過去時的被動語態(tài)和主謂一致。根據(jù)“in
the
16th
century”可知,此處應(yīng)用一般過去時。動詞build意為“建立”,和主語構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系。主語paifang為第三人稱單數(shù)。故填was
built。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ6.a
考查冠詞。official意為“官員”,為可數(shù)名詞,此處“Ming
Dynasty
official”為第一次出現(xiàn),所以應(yīng)用不定冠詞表示泛指。Ming的開頭發(fā)音為輔音,故填a。7.contributions
考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。make
contributions
to意為“對……做出貢獻”,故填contributions。8.being

考查非謂語動詞。句意:正是當?shù)厝讼MWo當?shù)貧v史特色的愿望,使得這些建筑得以保存至今。lead
