D.Toreflectitslivinghabit.15.Whatcanbeasuitabletitleforthetext?A.TheHistoryofAnts B.ANewlynamedAntSpeciesC.AncientAnts’SocialStructures D.OldestAntFossilFoundinBrazil【答案】12.B13.D14.A15.D【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了巴西出土了1.13亿年前的地狱蚁化石，为已知最古老蚂蚁化石，其特征与命名均有研究价值，印证了蚂蚁起源于南半球冈瓦纳古陆的观点。【12题详解】词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Heimmediatelysuspectedthisfossilwasfromanextinctgroupofinsectscalledhellants.(他立刻怀疑这块化石来自一种已经灭绝的昆虫——地狱蚁)”以及划线单词句中““ThatheadshapewassimilartoonespecieswefoundinBurmeseamber,”hesays.“Thisgavemethehint.”(这种头部形状与我们在缅甸琥珀中发现的一种相似，”他说。“这给了我hint。”)”可知，“hint”在此处指“线索、信号”，即头型相似这一特征为判断化石种类提供了依据，与B选项Signal“信号”意思接近。故选B项。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Hellantsareparticularlyinterestingbecausetheyrepresentatransitional“stemlineage”,saysLepeco—theyaremorecloselyrelatedtothewasplikemonancestorofallantsthantothespeciesalivetoday,althoughtheydidhaveantlikesocialstructures.(Lepeco说，地狱蚁特别有趣，因为它们代表了一种过渡性“茎系”——它们与所有蚂蚁的类似黄蜂的共同祖先关系更密切，而不是与今天存活的蚂蚁更密切，尽管它们确实有类似蚂蚁的社会结构)”可推知，地狱蚁是现代蚂蚁的祖先。故选D项。【14题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段中“TheresearchersnamedthenewhellantspeciesVulcanidriscratensis,inrecognitionoftheBrazilianentomologistMariaAparecidaVulcano.(研究人员将这种新的地狱蚁物种命名为Vulcanidriscratensis，以纪念巴西昆虫学家MariaAparecidaVulcano)”可知，新蚂蚁被命名为Vulcanidriscratensis是为了纪念一位科学家。故选A项。【15题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Atmorethan110millionyearsold,afossil(化石)unearthedinBrazilistheoldestundoubtedantfossileverdiscovered.ThefindingaddstoevidencethatthefirstantsdevelopedonthesupercontinentofGondwanainthesouthernhemisphere(半球)beforespreadingacrosstherestoftheworld.(在巴西出土的一具超过1.1亿年的化石无疑是迄今发现的最古老的蚂蚁化石。这一发现进一步证明，第一批蚂蚁在传播到世界其他地区之前，是在南半球的冈瓦纳古陆发展起来的)”可知，文章开篇即点明核心事件——巴西出土的1.1亿多年前的化石，是目前已知最古老的蚂蚁化石，后文围绕化石的发现、鉴定、命名及意义展开，标题需概括核心事件。由此可知，文章最合适的标题是“在巴西发现的最古老的蚂蚁化石”。故选D项。第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Culturalfestivalsserveasabridgeconnectingpastandpresent.___16___Eventslikethesenotonlypreservetraditionsbutalsofosterculturalunderstandingamongdiversegroups.Festivalsserveasvitalmethodsforpromotingculturalunderstanding.Theybringdiversemunitiestogetherandencouragedialogueamongpeoplefromdifferentbackgrounds.Thesegatheringshighlighttherichnessofvarioustraditions.___17___Culturalfestivalsoftenfeatureperformancesthatshowcasetraditionalcelebrations,allowingattendeestoappreciateuniquepracticesandbeliefs.___18___Festivalsserveasavitallinkbetweengenerations.Theyhelppassdowncustomsandpracticesthatdefineuniquecultures.Thesegatheringsfosterconnectionsamongmunitymembersandpromotesocialcohesion(凝聚力).Theyallowpeopletoexperiencetheirheritagefirsthandwhilecelebratingittogether.Throughfestivals,munitiescanconnecttraditionalpracticeswithcontemporaryinfluences,makingthemappealingtoyoungeraudiences.Festivalsfostersocialcohesionbybringingpeopletogether.Theycreateaspacewherediversegroupscancelebratetheirheritage.Thisinteractionpromotesunderstandingandrespectamongdifferentcultures.munityeventsofferchancesforindividualstoconnectthroughsharedexperiences.Festivalshelpbuildrelationshipsthatstrengthenmunityties.Culturalfestivalsalsosupporttourism,boostinglocaleconomies.Bycelebratingtraditions,theyencourageprideinculturalidentities.___19___Culturalfestivalspromotediversitybyshowcasingvarioustraditions.___20___Festivalshelpbridgegapsbetweengenerations,ensuringthatrichhistoriesremainalive.Throughtheseevents,individualslearnaboutoneanother’scultures,fosteringrespectandappreciationfordifferences.A.Festivalsboostlocaleconomiessignificantly.B.Thissenseofbelongingnurtureshealthiermunities.C.Suchexperiencesshapeidentitiesandstrengthenmunitybonds.D.Culturalunderstandingflowsintothepreservationoftribaltraditions.E.Thereforetheycreateopportunitiestolearnaboutfolkmusic,art,andcustomsF.FestivalslikeIndependenceDay,theMoonFestivalremindpeopleoftheirrichhistory.G.Theycelebratecustomsfromdifferentbackgroundsandfosterunderstandingamongpeople.【答案】16.F17.E18.C19.B20.G【解析】【导语】本文是一篇议论文，围绕文化节的多重价值展开论述，指出文化节是连接过去与现在的桥梁，不仅能保护传统、促进不同群体间的文化理解，还能维系代际传承、增强社会凝聚力、推动多样性发展，同时为当地经济带来积极影响。【16题详解】根据上文“Culturalfestivalsserveasabridgeconnectingpastandpresent.(文化节是连接过去与现在的桥梁。)”可知，前文点明文化节“连接古今”的核心属性，此空需举例说明该属性，同时呼应下文“preservetraditions(保护传统)”。F选项“FestivalslikeIndependenceDay,theMoonFestivalremindpeopleoftheirrichhistory.(像独立日、中秋节这样的节日，能让人们想起自己丰富的历史。)”以具体节日为例，“remindpeopleoftheirrichhistory”承接上文“connectingpast”，通过唤醒历史记忆体现“连接过去”，并为下文“保护传统”铺垫，逻辑连贯。故选F项。【17题详解】根据上文“Thesegatheringshighlighttherichnessofvarioustraditions.(这些聚会彰显了各种传统的丰富性。)”及下文“allowingattendeestoappreciateuniquepracticesandbeliefs.(让参与者能够欣赏独特的习俗和信仰。)”可知，此处需衔接“彰显传统丰富性”与“欣赏独特习俗”，说明文化节提供的学习机会。E选项“Thereforetheycreateopportunitiestolearnaboutfolkmusic,art,andcustoms.(因此，它们创造了学习民间音乐、艺术和习俗的机会。)”中“therefore”承接前文因果关系，“learnaboutfolkmusic,art,andcustoms”与下文“uniquepracticesandbeliefs”同义呼应，明确文化节促进文化理解的具体路径，符合语境。故选E项。【18题详解】根据下文“Festivalsserveasavitallinkbetweengenerations.Theyhelppassdowncustomsandpracticesthatdefineuniquecultures.(文化节是代际之间的重要纽带。它们有助于传承定义独特文化的习俗和做法。)”可知，本段核心是“文化节的代际传承价值”，此空为段落总起句，需概括该核心。选项中C选项“Suchexperiencesshapeidentitiesandstrengthenmunitybonds.(这些经历塑造身份，加强社区联系。)”中的“shapeidentities”与“passdowncustomsandpracticesthatdefineuniquecultures”呼应，“strengthenmunitybonds”与下文“fosterconnectionsamongmunitymembers”呼应，承接上文文化节的体验，总起本段代际与社区价值，符合逻辑。故选C项。19题详解】根据上文“Festivalshelpbuildrelationshipsthatstrengthenmunityties.Culturalfestivalsalsosupporttourism,boostinglocaleconomies.Bycelebratingtraditions,theyencourageprideinculturalidentities.(文化节能助力建立紧密联结社区的人际关系，同时也能拉动旅游业发展、带动地方经济增长。通过庆祝传统习俗，节庆活动还能增强人们对自身文化身份的认同感与自豪感。)”可知，前文强调文化节“增强社区联系、培养文化自豪感”，此空应承接该逻辑，说明其带来的最终影响——社区更健康。B选项“Thissenseofbelongingnurtureshealthiermunities.(这种归属感培育了更健康的社区。)”中的“Thissenseofbelonging”指代上文“strengthenmunityties”“prideinculturalidentities”带来的归属感，“nurtureshealthiermunities”是前文作用的自然延伸，符合语境。故选B项。【20题详解】根据上文“Culturalfestivalspromotediversitybyshowcasingvarioustraditions.(文化节通过展示各种传统来促进多样性。)”及下文“Festivalshelpbridgegapsbetweengenerations,ensuringthatrichhistoriesremainalive.(文化节有助于弥合代际差距，确保丰富的历史得以延续。)”可知，此处需衔接“促进多样性”与“弥合代际差距”，说明文化节的双重作用。G选项“Theycelebratecustomsfromdifferentbackgroundsandfosterunderstandingamongpeople.(它们庆祝不同背景的习俗，促进人们之间的理解。)”中的“celebratecustomsfromdifferentbackgrounds”呼应上文“promotediversity”，“fosterunderstandingamongpeople”为下文“bridgegapsbetweengenerations”铺垫，体现文化节在多样性与代际沟通中的双重价值，符合逻辑。故选G项。第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Achild’sfirststepsarealwaysprecious,butonelittlegirlwithcerebralpalsy(脑瘫)hadanextraspecialreasontocelebrate.Atsixyearsold,shewalkedwithoutamobility___21___forthefirsttime!Althoughthe___22___wasshort,itwasstillacrucial___23___foragirlwhousuallyneededawalkertogetaround.Her___24___wasbeyonddescriptionasshefoundherselftakingstepaftersteponherown!AbeautifulvideoshowssixyearoldLoveJohnsonslowlybut___25___makingherwayacrossthecarpet.Shetookherfirstfew___26___whileleaning(靠)onapieceoffurniturefor___27___.However,shesoonletgoandbegantowalk___28___.Herentireface___29___asshefoundherselfmovingwithoutherwalkerforthefirsttime!AccordingtoKXAN,thevideoofLove’sfirststeps___30___wentviralonline.Soon,peoplewereaskinghermom,LovelyJohnson,forparenting___31___.“We’vebeengettingalotofparents___32___becausetheyalsohavekidswithcerebralpalsy,sotheyareaskingforadvice,”saidLovely.KXANalsotellsusthatdoctorshadoncewarnedthismotheraboutherdaughter’s___33___.TheyexplainedthatLovemightnoteverbeableto___34___.However,oncethelittlegirltookherfirststepswithoutawalker,her___35___actuallycontinuedtoimprove!21.A.voice
