句意上：房价自从去年的以来一直在上涨，所以中央政府该采取措施加以控制了。第一空依据since一词应该使用现在完成时，且进行时态更能体现出目前的状况，故使用现在完成进行时最好；第二空是虚拟语气中“it’stimethat+did/shoulddo”的句式使用，且在使用过程中should一词不能省略，故D项最佳。5.LarryasksBillandPetertogoonapicnicwithhim,but

42.rasing

43.their

44.isbursting

45.wouldpray/prayed

46.Traditionally

47.foods

48.cut

49.the

50.that本文介绍了龙抬头日的由来及意义。41.which

考查非限制性定语从句。分析句子DragonHeads-raisingDay,___1___fallseachyear…可知DragonHeads-raisingDay被定语从句___1___fallseachyear…修饰，而DragonHeads-raisingDay（龙抬头日）是先行词，指物，在定语从句中作主语时要用which关系词。故填which。42.raising考查现在分词作状语，分析句子可知，raise在句中作状语，它与主语Thedragon是主动关系，故填raising。43.their

考查代词。分析句子可知，they在此修饰名词heads，修饰名词要用形容词，故用其形容词their。句意：在这一天，龙，一个中国文化的象征，随着一声春雷而抬起了头。44.isbursting考查现在进行时。句意：在这个时候，地球上生命开始复苏，草和树木开始发芽。根据时间状语Aroundthistime，正在这时，要用现在进行时，主语是theearth，是单数，故用isbursting。45.wouldpray/prayed考查谓语动词。根据时间状语.InancientChina,，“在古代中国”，描述过去的事，而句意：在古代中国，人们会在河边或湖边祈祷龙神，让宝贵的春雨到来可以种庄稼。因此用一般过去时played或过去总是wouldplayed。46.Traditionally

考查副词做状语。句意：传统上，这一天吃的食物被都以龙的身体的一部分命名的。分析句子可知，Tradition是名词，而在本句中作状语修饰后面的句子，因此要用其副词形式Traditionally。47.foods

考查名词复数。句意：这一天通常吃特别的食物，包括龙鳞、爆米花和猪头等。分析句子可知食物有许多，所以food要用其复数形式foods。48.cut

考查固定搭配。句意：在山西，人们把理发当成一种象征，意为去掉旧的，拥抱新的。getsthdone，为固定用法，表示“请别人做”、“某物被做”。而本句中的theirhair头发是请别人理的，是被理的。因此用gettheirhaircut，意为“理发”。故填cut。49.the

考查固定用法。句意：在河北省的乡村，人们在黎明时从井里打水。Inthecountryside，为固定搭配，“在农村”。故填the。50.that考查主语从句。句意：人们相信，这一天，井里到处都是龙蛋，这会给捕捉者时带来丰收。分析句子可知，it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的onthisdaythewellwasfullofdragoneggswhichwouldbringthecollectorsgoodharvest.句子，分析句子可知，后面的从句中不缺少成分，因此要用that引导句子，故本空填that。20.阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Didyouknowthatwhatyouthinkyoulikeanddon’tlikeisoftentheresultoffalsebeliefs?Ashumans,wetendtobe____41____(easy)influencedwhenitcomestolikingor

42.objective

43.balanced

44.matches

45.rejecting

46.an

47.what

48.togive

49.It

50.trusted这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲了我们认为自己喜欢和不喜欢的东西往往是错误信念的结果。【41题详解】考查副词。该空修饰动词influenced，用副词，所以填easily。【42题详解】考查形容词。作be动词后的表语，用形容词，所以填objective。【43题详解】考查形容词。该空修饰名词view，用形容词，所以填balanced。【44题详解】考查主谓一致。that___4___(match)ourbeliefs是一个定语从句，information是先行词，that替代先行词，information是不可数名词，谓语动词用单数，所以填matches。【45题详解】考查非谓语动词。reject的逻辑主语是we，它们之间是主动关系，用现在分词，所以填rejecting。【46题详解】考查冠词。句意：因此，我们经常甚至不考虑一个相反观点背后的原因。泛指“一个相反的观点”，opposing的首字母发音是元音，所以填不定冠词an。【47题详解】考查宾语从句。____7____wehadalreadythought是一个宾语从句，引导词在从句中作宾语，表示“我们所想的事情”，所以填what。【48题详解】考查固定句型。句意：我们更有可能赋予符合我们已有信念的信息意义。belikelytodo有可能做某事，所以填togive。【49题详解】考查代词。指代前面的“information”，所以填it。【50题详解】考查时态。描述发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，所以填trusted。三、阅读理解21.阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写在横线上（请注意问题后的词数要求）Formostofhumanhistory,theprimarymeansofcommunicationacrosslongdistanceswasnotthecomputer,telephoneortelegraph,buttheletter.Inthe18thand19thcenturies,althoughnewspaperswerecommon,letterscontinuedtobetheprimarysourceofinformationonpolitics,socialconditions,andevennaturaldisasters.Aseriesofinnovations,includingtheinventionoftheleadpencilinthe18thcenturyandthesteadyreductionofpostalratesinthe19thcentury,affectednotonlythelengthandcontentofletters,butthefrequencywithwhichtheyweresent.Butfewdevelopmentschangedwrittencommunicationasmuchastheintroductionofasimpleproductthatcreatedanationalfashionattheturnofthe20thcentury:thepostcard.Postcardswerefirstdevelopedinthe1870saspromotionaladvertisementsforhotels,resorts(度假胜地),andotherbusinesses.In1906,theUnitedStatesCongresspassedlegislationallowingmessagestobewrittenononehalfofthebacksideofpostcards,ineffectencouragingpeopletosubstitutethemforshortletters.Fromthatpointon,theuseofpostcardsrosesteadily,fromabout770millionthatyeartoalmost1billionthreeyearslater.Manufacturersspranguptomeetthedemand.By1909,theIllustratedPostcardCompanyalonewasproducingthreemillionaday.Postcardswere_________ameansofcommunication.Likestamps,theybecamecollector'sitemstobebought,sold,andtraded.Manypeopleusedpostcardstoacknowledgethereceipt（收据）oflettersandtopromiseaquickresponse.Theyalsobecameameansfortravelerstoupdatefriendsandfamilyonhowatripwasprogressing.Butpostcardsalsohadanimportanteffectonhowpeoplecorresponded.Thelimitedspaceonthesecardspromotedabriefanddirectmethodofwriting.76.What’sthemainideaofthepassage?(nomorethan8words)
