答案以及解析1.答案：whatever/what

解析：句意:对他来说,旅行和探索(任何)新的事物是非常愉快的。所填词引导宾语从句并在从句中作主语,所以用whatever/what。2.答案：into

解析：句意:独自在一个陌生的城市,没有朋友和金钱,他陷入了绝望。fallintodespair陷入绝望。3.答案：toanswer

解析：句意:虽然有些问题对我来说似乎不熟悉,但它们很容易回答。此处是“be+形容词+todo”结构。4.答案：motivation

解析：句意:没有激情,人们就不会有创造性思维所必需的动力和快乐。所填的词作宾语,所以用名词形式。5.答案：committed

解析：句意:他是一个好人,对他的家庭和工作都尽心尽力。所填的词作表语,所以用形容词形式。6.答案：of

解析：句意:多亏你的努力,我们可以提前完成任务。aheadofschedule提前。7.答案：Before

解析：句意:她还没来得及出房间,就听见一声巨响。before表示“还没来得及;在……之前”。8.答案：topick

解析：句意:我已安排汤姆去机场接专家们。arrangeforsb.todosth.安排某人做某事。9.答案：commitment解析：考查词性转换。句意：他们在寻找一个对这份工作有真正的奉献意识的人。由空前的arealsenseof可知此处应该用名词形式。10.答案：enthusiastic解析：考查词性转换。句意：没有一个人对此很热心，所以他们决定取消这次旅行beenthusiasticabout....对……热心；喜欢……。11.答案：to解析：考查固定短语。句意：他的妻子抛弃他后，他沉溺于饮酒。abandononeselfto...沉溺于……。12.答案：belonging解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：老虎是属于猫科的大型凶猛动物。句子中已有谓语动词is，所以此处要用非谓语动词。belongto没有被动形式，所以用现在分词短语作后置定语。13.答案：persevered解析：考查动词时态。句意：尽管他们失败了一次又一次，他们坚持尝试坐热气球环球飞行。persevere与主语they之间是主动关系，根据从句中谓语动词failed可知应该使用一般过去时。14.答案：resolves解析：考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：每次他解决了一个棘手的问题后，他感觉他离他的最终目标更近了。resolve在此处意为"解决"，与其主语he是主动关系，由主句中的feels可知应该使用一般现在时，主语是第三人称单数，所以用resolves。15.答案：down解析：考查固定短语。句意：当汤开始沸腾的时候，把炉子的火调小，只让它继续烧开着就行。此处turndown意为"调小"。16.答案：1-4BCAA解析：1.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Hendersongotbothmotorsroaring,onlytohavethesaltwaterthathadleakedinbreakthemstraightaway...”可知，他们所做的自救行为使得事情变得更糟糕了。2.推理判断题。根据第八段中的“Heswam,seeingiceandcrystaltreesinthewater.Heremindedhimselfconstantlytherewerenotrees.”可知，他在游走求救的过程中需要克服疲劳和幻觉。3.推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的“AllhecouldthinkofwasCoen.Convincedhisfriendwouldsurvive,hetoldthecoastguardwheretheyhadparted.”可知，Henderson相信自己的朋友能够活下来，他把他们分开的地方告诉海岸警卫队队员。由此可知，Henderson试图让他们两个人都能得救。4.推理判断题。根据第八段中的“Heremindedhimselfconstantlytherewerenotrees.”可知，他需要克服幻觉，所以意志非常坚定。根据倒数第二段中的“Hepromisedtorealizehiswishesandlookafterhisgirls.”可知，他保证会履行承诺，帮朋友照顾孩子们，所以非常忠诚。UNIT4单元提能强化练Ⅰ.阅读理解AAnexhibitionofSongBuyun’sworksisnowrunningatthemuseumoftheCentralAcademyofFineArts.TheexhibitionwillrunthroughFeb.27.Thesedays,alongawaitedsnowfallinBeijingeasilycreatesafanfare(轰动)online.Oneneedn’tgooutsidetofeelpeople’sexcitementatablanketofsnow,asaglimpseofthephotosandvideosuploadedonsocialmediawillbeenough.Seventyyearsago,however,whilesnowwascommoninBeijing,cameraswereseldomtobeseen;fewwereabletorecordthesceneryofthishistoricalcity.OneofthefewwasSongBuyun,thelateoilpainterandwater-coloristwhowalkedthestreetsandrecordedthebeautyofBeijing’scenturies-oldarchitecture.CulturallandmarksfrozenintimearedisplayedinSong’sBeijinglandscapeseries,picturingthepeacefulatmosphereofthecity’shistoricalspotsoverthecourseofayear,suchasTiantan.HedocumentedpeoplevisitingthePalaceMuseum,swimminginlakesandclearingsnowoffthestreets.Dyingin1992,Songdidn’thaveachancetoshowthisbodyofworkduringhislifetime.Itwaseightyearslaterthatthesepaintingsweremadepublicforthefirsttimeatanexhibitionheldinhismemory.“Song’spaintingsshowtheharmony(和谐)betweenarchitectureanditssurroundings,”saysFanDi’an,deanoftheCentralAcademyofFineArts.“Thecolorsarevividandarrangedtastefullytogivearefreshinglooktotheseoldbuildings.CombiningskillsofChineseandWesternart,hisworkspreserve(保存)thevariedlandscapeofacity,andunderhisbrushwork,Songinjectedrichemotions,allowinghisworktostandthetestoftime.”1.WhatcanweknowaboutSong’sworksintheexhibition?A.Theyweremadewiththehelpofcameras.B.TheyfocusonBeijing’sculturallandmarks.C.Theyshowpeople’shardlifeinBeijingdecadesago.D.Theyhavedrawnwideattentionandgoodcommentsonline.2.WhendidthepublicfirstseethebodyofSong’sBeijinglandscapeseries?A.In1951.B.In1992.C.In2000.

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.Iknowyoupassedawaymanyyearsago”可知,这是作者写给已故老师的信,此处指读到(reading)这封信的其他人。2.A根据下文“it’stoolateforhimorher”可知,其他人可以在为时未晚时,做得更好。3.D根据“youawakenedainmetolearnabouteverythinginmyworld—notjustthethingsinsciencebuteverything,everywhere.”可推断,作者想让老师知道他对自己的生活有多大的影响。
