cocreator of many of its most popular superheroes, died at the age of 95.lee was born stanley martin lieber in new york in 1922. as a son of workingclass jewish immigrants from romania, times were hard and he lived with his family in a shabby singlebedroom apartment. after graduating from high school at 16, lieber landed a job as an assistant at timely comics. by the early 1940s, he was a temporary editor for the company. it was at this time that he began using his pen name stan lee. in 1947, two years after returning from serving for the u. s. army, lee married his wife, joan. the two began their 70year marriage and had two children. in the late 1950s, dc comics breathed new life into its classic superhero and experienced a significant success with its updated version of the flash, and later with superteam the justice league of america. to compete against dc comics, lee was given the task of creating their own group of superheroes. in 1961, timely comics changed its name into marvel comics after atlas comics, and that november saw the debut(首次亮相) of the fantastic four. lees later famous and lasting creations of comicbook superheroes included spiderman, the hulk, thor, iron man and the xmen. over the course of his career, lee was an icon of marvel comics. as a writer and editor and, at various points, both the publisher and vice president of marvel comics, lee not only introduced interesting characters to the industry, but changed the way that comic books came together. he also created a cooperative workflow between writers and artists, which became known as the “marvel method”. lee received a national medal of arts in 2008 for his innovations that revolutionized american comic books.4what do we know about lee from paragraph 2?ahe served for the u. s. army

not be my favorite, but if i were given the choice, i wouldnt throw away the idea of school uniform. wearing a uniform is a badge of pride, creates an identity for a school and is an important part of being a school student. my school is one of many that seem to be shifting to a more formal uniform this september i will be wearing a shirt and blazer instead of my old jumper and polo shirt. a number of students have complained about the change, but some people believe that a school uniform can improve learning by reducing distraction, sharpening focus on schoolwork and making the classroom a more serious environment, allowing students to perform better academically. perhaps most importantly, a uniform means students dont have to worry about peer pressure when it comes to their clothes. when everyone is dressed the same, worrying about what you look like isnt so important. there is no competition about being dressed in the latest trend, which would put a great deal of financial pressure on students and parents. potential bullies have one less target for their insults, its hard to make fun of what someone is wearing when youre dressed exactly the same. in america, where a majority of schools do not have a uniform, roughly 160,000 children miss school every day due to fear of attack or intimidation by other students. this might not be directly linked to what theyre wearing, but having a uniform can be a safety net for many students who might otherwise suffer from bullying. a uniform gives the impression that rules are strict, perhaps helping maintain a sense of order at school. my uniform might not be what i would wear in my own time, but it gives me a sense of belonging, takes away the pressure of what to wear and stops the bullies. school uniform isnt fashionable, but thats exactly why i think it should be here to stay.8why does the writer mention american children without uniforms in the passage?ato show pity for american kids.bto raise the governments

can be taken every morning or evening(weather permitting) during the event”可知，参加热气球节的人们可以乘坐热气球。干扰项分析：a项错在可以买气球，文章中未提及；c项错在给气球涂色，而文中第一段提到是热气球使城市的天空变得多姿多彩；d项错在在一场气球飞行中竞争，而文中提到参加比赛的是“skilled pilots”，而非游客，故排除。3c考查细节理解。根据admission介绍中的“online tickets must be printed for entry”可知，网上购票的游客在入场之前要把票打印出来。干扰项分析：a项错在允许人们免费带一名儿童，而文中提到无论什么年龄，每个人入场都必须有票；b项错在人们只能用现金购得入场券，这与文中的“cash is only accepted at the gate”不符；d项与文中的信息不符，故排除。【语篇解读】本文是记叙文，主要介绍了漫威创始人斯坦李富于传奇色彩的一生。作为一名漫威创始人，他对美国的漫画进行了革新，创造了许多超级英雄，荣获了国家艺术奖章。4c考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“as a son of workingclass jewish immigrants from romania, times were hard and he lived with his family in a shabby singlebedroom apartment. as an assistant at timely comics.”可知，斯坦李拥有一个艰辛的童年，故选c项。5b考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“in 1961, timely comics changed its name into marvel comics after atlas comics”可知，公司的名字按照时间顺序依次为timely comicsatlas comicsmarvel comics，神奇四侠于1961年首次推出，而蜘蛛侠是之后创作的，所以创作蜘蛛侠时公司的名称应是漫威(marvel comics)，故选b项。6d考查词义猜测。最后一段介绍了斯坦李的成就，作为漫威宇宙的创始人之一，斯坦李可以算是美漫历史上最伟大的人物之一，没有他可能就没有现在的漫威世界，所以他可以被称为是漫威宇宙的标志，由此可推知，icon意为“标志”，故选d项。7a考查主旨大意。通读全文可知，本文介绍了漫威创始人之一斯坦李的传奇一生，他对美国漫画的影响力是令人瞩目的，他生前所创作的经典作品在世界上都可以称作是顶级的文化品牌，所以他被称为漫威之父。godfather意为“开拓者；发起者；创始人”，故选a项。【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。在学校“我”选择穿校服，因为校服是学校的标志，学生统一穿校服能使教室成为严肃的场所，让学生更加专注于学习；此外，穿校服还能减少校园欺凌事件的发生。【难句分析】a number of students have complained about the change, but some people believe that a school uniform can improve learning by reducing distraction, sharpening focus on schoolwork and making the classroom a more serious environment, allowing students to perform better academically. 分析：该句由but连接的两个分句构成，第二个分句为主从复合句，句中“that a school uniform can improve learning by reducing distraction，sharpening focus on schoolwork and making the classroom a more serious environment, allowing students to perform better academically”为that引导的宾语从句，作及物动词believe的宾语；其中“allowing students to perform better academically”为现在分词短语作伴随状语。 译文：许多学生抱怨这种变化，但一些人认为校服可以减少分心，提高对学业的关注，使教室的环境更严肃，让学生在学业上表现更好，从而改善学习。8c考查推理判断。根据第三段的内容可知，在美国，大多数学校没有统一的校服，每天大约有16万名儿童因为害怕受到其他学生的攻击或恐吓而缺课。这可能与他们的穿着没有直接的联系，但是对于许多
