参考答案UNIT4单元提能强化练Ⅰ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了已逝画家宋步云的作品在中央美术学院博物馆里展出的情况。1.B细节理解题。根据第四段中的“CulturallandmarksfrozenintimearedisplayedinSong’sBeijinglandscapeseries,picturingthepeacefulatmosphereofthecity’shistoricalspotsoverthecourseofayear,suchasTiantan.”可知,他的作品集中于北京的文化地标。2.C细节理解题。根据第五段“Dyingin1992,Songdidn’thaveachancetoshowthisbodyofworkduringhislifetime.Itwaseightyearslaterthatthesepaintingsweremadepublicforthefirsttimeatanexhibitionheldinhismemory.(逝世于1992年,宋没有机会在他的有生之年里展出他的作品。8年后这些绘画作品才在一个为了纪念他而举办的画展中首次公开)”可知,在2000年公众才首次看到他的作品。3.D细节理解题。根据文章最后一句“CombiningskillsofChineseandWesternart,...Songinjectedrichemotions,allowinghisworktostandthetestoftime.”可知,宋的作品能历经时间考验是因为他作品中的艺术技巧和注入的情感。4.A主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了已逝画家宋步云的作品正在中央美术学院博物馆里展出,对他的记录老北京历史景观的作品做了简单介绍,尤其是他的中西方结合的绘画技巧与他融入画中的情感,使他的作品能历经时间的考验,因此,A项“Frozenintime:anoldBeijinginSongBuyun’sexhibition”为本文的最佳标题。【语篇导读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了第二次世界大战大屠杀幸存者Miriam的求学故事。战争的爆发使她失去了上学的机会,战争时期的苦难没有打倒她,她一直坚持自学、读书,她的故事感动了新英格兰犹太学院和学生,授予了她荣誉文凭,帮她完成了夙愿。5.A细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“‘Iwaslookingforwardtostartingschool.’Shenevermadeit.Andnothavingadegreehasalwaysbeenathorninherside.”可知,她一直期待去上学,但却因为战争没能上学,这是令她感到遗憾的。6.D细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“RichardNabel,theprincipaloftheschool,broughtafewseniorstudentstoMiriam’shometohearherstorybeforetheycameupwiththeideaofpresentingheranhonorarydiplomaattheschool’s2020graduationceremony.”可知,校长了解了Miriam的故事后,决定给予她荣誉文凭,帮助她完成梦想。7.C推理判断题。根据文章第三段的“butshelearnedsevenlanguagesovertheyears.‘Ieducatedmyself,’shesays.‘Ireadbooksdayandnight.Istilldo.’”可知,她虽然不能接受正规教育,但仍然坚持学习、读书。由此推测,她是一个有决心的人。8.B句意理解题。根据下文的“Miriam’sfamilywasespeciallymoved.”可知,她能够得到文凭是令人感动的。因此猜测,“Thereweren’ttoomanydryeyes”的意思是“很多人都很感动”,故选B项。Ⅱ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者怀念一位去世多年的老师,从这位老师身上学到的求知精神影响了作者很多年。1.B根据上文“Ihaveputthisletteroffforfartoolong.Iknowyoupassedaway
