anheuser busch brewery tour is not just for beer lovers.the tour includes the historic brew house.”可知,百威酒厂有关于啤酒制作的传统作坊,适合对啤酒制作感兴趣者参观,故c项正确。2.a细节理解题。根据第三则广告最后一句“about one million people per year come to the top of the arch,where there is an observation platform providing a great view of the city.”可知,站在圣路易斯拱门的最高处,可以俯视全城。故a项正确。3.d细节理解题。根据第四则广告最后一段可知,圣路易斯动物园除了元旦和圣诞节之外每天都开放,参观时间是夏季早8点至晚7点,其他季节早9点至下午5点。故选择d项。bif you could travel in time,where would you go?perhaps you would watch an original performance of a shakespeares play in elizabethan england?what about hanging out with laozi in the spring and autumn period?or maybe youd voyage far ahead of the present day to see what the future holds.the possibility of time travel is indeed appealing.stories exploring the subject have been around for hundreds of years.perhaps the best known example is the science fiction novel the time machine,which was written by h.g.wells and published in 1895 for the first time.it was adapted into at least two feature films of the same name,as well as two television versions,and a large number of comic book adaptations.it is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively.the term “time machine”,coined by wells,is now universally used to refer to a vehicle transporting people into the far future.but could time travel actually be possible?some scientists say yes,in theory.they propose using cracks in time and space called “wormholes”,which could be used as shortcuts to other periods.einsteins theory of relativity allows time travel in extreme circumstances.and british physicist stephen hawking says you could travel into the future with a really fast spaceshipgoing at nearly the speed of light.though building such a spaceship would of course be no simple task.even if you could travel into the past,there is something called the “grandfather paradox”.it asks what would happen if a time traveler were to go back in time and have his own grandfather killed for some reason,and therefore prevent himself from being born.if the time traveler wasnt born,how would he travel back in time?and would you really like to visit the future?in h.g.wells book,the main character travels into distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs.he then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles(触角).if thats whats in store,maybe we are better just living in the present day after all.(2016北京海淀区期中考试)1.the novel the time machine mentioned in paragraph 2 aims to show .a.peoples interest in time travelb.the special feature of the bookc.the long history of time traveld.the contribution of h.g.wells2.einsteins and hawkings theories .a.have similarities in many waysb.push the invention of the first spaceshipc.have proved wrong by some time travelersd.suggest the possibility of time travel3.in paragraph 4,“grandfather paradox” probably refers to the idea that .a.the traveler is prevented from meeting his grandfatherb.the traveler goes back in time to seek for his grandfatherc.the grandfathers death makes the travelers birth impossibled.the reunion of the traveler and his grandfather brings happiness4.according to the passage,what is probably the authors attitude towards time travel?a.unclear.b.skeptical.c.supportive.d.unconcerned.【文章大意】本文为议论文,主要讨论了时间旅行的可能性。1.a目的意图题。第二段第一句“the possibility of time travel is indeed appealing.”为该段主题句,下文举科幻小说时间机器为例说明此观点。由此可推测,第二段提到这部小说,是为了表明人们对时间旅行的浓厚兴趣,故选择a项。2.d细节理解题。由第三段第四、五句可知,两位科学家的理论表明了时光旅行是可能的,故选d项。3.c词义推测题。由第四段可知,“祖父悖论”指的是如果时间旅行者的祖父被杀,时间旅行者则不可能出生。4.b观点态度题。从全文看,无论是引用的两位科学家的观点,还是h.g.wells书中的事例,都说明了作者对时间旅行持有怀疑态度,最后一段更是明确表明了作者的态度,故选b项。unclear “不清晰的”;skeptical“怀疑的”;supportive “支持的”;unconcerned “不关心的”。二、语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)waiting for a bus can be very 1.(annoy).often you have been at the bus stop for half an hour,and the bus still doesnt come.2.,people in zhongshan,guangdong dont have to suffer this.its all because of a mobile app,zhongshan real-time buses.with the app,people can find out the exact time a bus arrives and set an

on the fifth national high school students leadership convention this summer.“we are very happy that zhongshan people are using the results of our efforts,” said chen,“students can also make 10. big difference to society.”(2016黑龙江齐齐哈尔实验中学期中考试)1.annoying。annoying意为“令人烦恼的”,此处作表语修饰“waiting for a bus”这件事。2.however。前文说等车不方便,下文说这一问题解决了,前后为转折关系,故填however。3.themselves。句子主语和宾语均为第三人称people,故宾语应用反身代词themselves。4.easier。much常用来修饰比较级表示程度,故填easier。5.beneficial。此处应用形容词beneficial,在定语从句中作表语。be beneficial to意为“有益于”。6.to get。此处意为“为了获得技术支持”,应用动词不定式表示目的。7.which/that。先行词为questionnaires“调查表”,其后接定语从句的引导词,应用which或that。8.downloaded。此处用过去分词downloaded作后置定语修饰the mobile app,表被动关系。9.won。由this summer可知本句应用一般过去时,故空处填won。10.a。make a difference为固定搭配,意为“有影响,起作用”。part b一、完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)did you know saint georges day?1,for many english people the answer to this question will be “no”.we get very excited about saint patricks day,and then completely 2 that we have our own national day!for me,its 3 to remember the date as its also my grandmas birthday.saint george is the patron

off【文章大意】本文是记叙文。文章介绍了英国圣乔治日的由来,鼓励人们庆祝这个全国性的节日。1.c根据下文可知,圣乔治日是一个很值得纪念的节日,起源于英国,而很多英国人却不了解这个节日,对他们来说这是一件很令人羞愧的事。c项符合语境。unfortunately“不幸地”;apparently“明显地”;shamefully“羞愧地”;actually“事实上”。2.a我们记得圣巴特里克节并且过这个节日,但是完全忘记了自己国家的节日。由第二句中的“no”可知答案为a项。3.d对“我”来说很容易记住这个日子,因为这一天也是“我”祖母的生日。故选d项。4.c由下文“.every day they would 5 it with two sheep.6 there werent enough sheep,a child would be fed up to the dragon7!”可知,人们都很害怕这条龙,故选c项。5.c每天他们都会向这条龙提供两只羊来享用。下文“.a child would be fed to the dragon 7!”提示答案为c项。表示“用喂”用feed sb.with sth.或feed sth.to sb.。6.d如果没有足够的羊,那么龙就会吃小孩子。此处为虚拟语气,故选d项if,表示假设。7.bstill“仍然”;instead“代替”;too“也”;only“只要”。小孩子是代替羊被龙吃掉的,故选b项。8.b由下文中的“and10his daughter must be fed to the dragon”可知,国王的女儿被选中了。b项符合语境。9.d国王不希望自己的女儿被吃掉,便试着出钱给小镇上的人们。offer sth.to sb./offer sb.sth.“向某人提供某物”,为固定搭配。10.a然而,市民们不要这笔钱,坚持把被选中的国王的女儿喂给龙吃。insist“坚持”,后接宾语从句应用虚拟语气,a项符合语境。command“命令”;swear“保证”;admit“承认”。11.d此处表示公主在湖边等待龙来吃她。look for“寻找”;deal with“处理,解决”;get close to“接近”;wait for“等待”。12.a由最后一段第三句中的“saint georges cross”可知,圣乔治是用十字架将龙杀死的,故选a项。cross“十字架”;knife“刀”;sword“剑”;arrow“箭”。13.c由第二段第二句中的“the legend”可知,此处指关于圣乔治日的由来,这个“故事”被传颂为很多不同版本,c项符合语境。festival“节日”;dragon“龙”;story“故事”;holiday“节日”。14.b还有很多描摹圣乔治的绘画和雕塑,b项符合语境。appreciate“欣赏,感激”;describe“描摹,刻画”;praise“表扬”;inform“提醒”。15.b英国的白底红十字旗,是英格兰守护神圣乔治的标志,以圣乔治的十字架而闻名。be known as“以而闻名”。16.c根据第一段中的“.for many english people the answer to this question will beno”可知,很多英国人都并不知道这个节日,所以c项符合语境。silently“安静地”;unbearably“无法忍受地”;unnoticeably“未被注意地,被忽视地”;successfully“成功地”。17.a此处是连续的否定,故选择否定词nor。句意:这不是一个全国性的节日,也没有众多的庆祝活动。18.a英国遗产署等组织正在鼓励英国公众庆祝这个节日。encourage“鼓励”;force“强迫”;demand“需求”;advise“建议”。19.b上句中的celebrations提示b项celebrate为正确答案。20.d希望他们的努力会得到回报。come out“出版”;turn up“出现,被找到”;give in“屈服,让步”;pay off“取得成功,得到回报”。二、七选五阅读填空(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)gratitude keeps us centered and wards off jealousy(妒忌) and negativity.here are four little things we can do each

friends will help you nurture(培育) your soul and set out to find some.2.help your friends cultivate gratitude.before you say something about a friends situation,remember that everyones situation is unique.ive seen it happen to myself and to my friends.theyll be perfectly happy until someone tells them theyre being mistreated.suddenly,theyre upset.2 make an agreement with your friends to cut the complaints from your conversations.3.say “thank you”.who in your life do you appreciate?let them know,whether its your mom,your kids,your friends,your husband,your childs daycare provider or the helpful woman in the restaurant.3 make it a habit and your attention will suddenly turn to all the things people do for you.also,write thank-you notes regularly and be mindful of all the ways you show your appreciation by the things you do in return.4. 4 today,try to be aware of all the aspects of your personal,professional and family life for which you are thankful.take a few minutes today to

complaints from your conversations.”可知,d项顺承文意。complaints为关键信息词。3.c前文提到要向别人表示感激,接下来介绍了如何向别人表示感激,c项“一句衷心的感谢往往就会奏效”承上启下,符合语境。4.a该部分第一句“today,try to be aware of all the aspects of your personal,professional and family life for which you are thankful.”提到要注意你要感谢的人的方方面面,下文“.try to notice the details.”要求关注生活中的细节。据此可知本段的主题是注意生活中的小事,故选a项。5.e上文中提到“take a few minutes today to appreciate nature.”,即要找时间去感受大自然,与e项“出去走走,看看周围美好的事物”相呼应,故选e项。三、短文改错(满分10分)one of my favorite hobbies are backcountry hiking.however,after i go hiking,i make sure to have all of the proper necessities.first of
