B.Bored.C.Excited. D.Nervous.【解析】選A。觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段HaddadisplanningtotakeherA.P.exam,thoughshefindsithardtoimaginewhattheforty-five-minute,cell-phone-friendlyversionofthetestwillbelike.可知哈達德對A.P.考試是懷疑的。故選A。3.Inwhichsectionofanewspapermaythepassageappear?A.Family.

天氣惡劣,但隨著各類智能保暖產(chǎn)品的問世,冬天也能變得舒適宜人。人們憑借科學(xué)技術(shù)發(fā)明了各式各樣的御寒設(shè)備。4.Whatdotheunderlinedwords“bundleup”meaninParagraph1?A.Fixanairconditioner. B.Takeahotbath.C.Runalot. D.Putonmoreclothes.【解析】選D。詞義猜測題。由第一段前兩句可知,在我的記憶中,冬天總是令人很不愉快。你外出時必須穿得暖和一點。通過“keepwarm”可知,外出時要想暖和一些,就要多穿衣服。由此可判斷出“bundleup”是“多穿衣服”的意思。5.Howdoeselectronicthermalclothingwork?A.Theequipmentplacedinsidetheclothingproducesheat.B.Itneedstobewarmedupbeforebeingused.C.Thethermostatheatsupautomaticallywhenthetemperatureislow.D.Itkeepswarmforover12hoursafterbeingchargedforanhour.【解析】選A。細節(jié)理解題。由第四段的倒數(shù)第二句可知,只要按下按鈕,或者通過手機上的應(yīng)用程序,安裝在衣服內(nèi)部的電子元件就會產(chǎn)生熱量。所以電子保暖服裝工作的原理是安裝在衣服內(nèi)部的電子元件產(chǎn)生熱量。6.Fromthepassage,wecanlearnthefollowingstatementsEXCEPTthat_________.

A.Tado’smodelcanbecontrolledbysayingsomethingtoit.B.withtheinbuiltspeakerandmicrophone,beaniesandearmuffsuserscanhaveaphonecall.C.technologycandonothingtomakewinterlessrough.D.Bluetoothtechnologyisusedintheclothingforthehead.【解析】選C。細節(jié)理解題。由第二段的前兩句可知,幸運的是,事情不再這么有挑戰(zhàn)性了。先進的技術(shù)為我們提供了解決老問題的新方法。所以C選項“科技無法讓冬天變得不那么難熬”不符合文章內(nèi)容。故選C。7.What’sthebesttitleofthispassage?A.ASmartThermostatB.AModernWinterC.WaysofKeepingWarmD.AnUnpleasantWinter【解析】選B。標(biāo)題歸納題。通讀全文可知,本文主要介紹了現(xiàn)如今隨著各類智能保暖產(chǎn)品的問世,冬天也能變得舒適宜人。人們憑借科學(xué)技術(shù)發(fā)明了各式各樣的御寒設(shè)備。所以文章的最佳標(biāo)題為“讓現(xiàn)代科技溫暖你的冬日”。Ⅱ.閱讀填句

【文章大意】本文是學(xué)?；顒宇惗涛?今年九月份開始,清華大學(xué)的大一新生必須上游泳課,除非有醫(yī)生證明身體有問題,否則都要參加。對于這個要求一些學(xué)生是歡迎的,稱游泳是一種必要的生活技能;而其他學(xué)生認(rèn)為把游泳與學(xué)位聯(lián)系起來是不合理的,不過從長遠來看對學(xué)生有好處。1.【解析】successfully。考查副詞。分析句子可知,此處應(yīng)用副詞形式修飾動詞pass。2.【解析】proved/proven。考查“連詞+分詞”作狀語。if引導(dǎo)的是省略句,省略了theyare,they與prove之間是被動關(guān)系,所以用過去分詞。3.【解析】toswim。考查非謂語動詞。theabilitytodosth.表示“做某事的能力”。4.【解析】requirement?？疾槊~?？涨坝衋修飾。5.【解析】wasdropped?？疾閯釉~的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。it與drop之間是被動關(guān)系,且事情發(fā)生在過去,所以用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)。6.【解析】that/which?？疾槎ㄕZ從句。先行詞為anecessaryskill,關(guān)系詞在定語從句中作主語,指物,故用that或which引導(dǎo)。7.【解析】with/to?？疾榻樵~。固定搭配link...to/with“與……有關(guān),與……相連接”。故答案為with/to。8.【解析】response?？疾槊~。inresponseto...表示“對……的回應(yīng)”,固定搭配。9.【解析】As?？疾榻樵~。修飾名詞awatersport,表示“作為”,用as。10.【解析】Consequently?？疾楦痹~。it’sbeneficialtostudentsinthelongrun表示“從長遠來看對學(xué)生有好處”,是上文的結(jié)果,所以用Consequently連接。Ⅳ.概要寫作(2021·紹興模擬)閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容寫一篇60詞左右的內(nèi)容概要。
