5、unch appointment with a friend,the average American student defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes. ??? In an American university, students are expected to arrive at the appointed hour.In contr

6、ast, in Brazil,neither the teacher nor the students always arrive at the appointed hour.Classes not only begin at the scheduled time in the United States,but also end at the scheduled time.In the Brazilian class, only a few students left the class at 12:00;many remained past 12:30 to discuss the cla

11、Students being late for class should explain the reason to their teacher. B（考點(diǎn)17中難） Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (聯(lián)系) g

12、roups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them. Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become fa

13、rmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused man

14、y languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over. At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken

15、by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number (中位數(shù)) of speakers is mere

16、 6,000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that. Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction (消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (1

17、50), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival. 5.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?考點(diǎn)17 易 A.They developed very fast. B.They were large in number. C.They had

18、similar patterns. D.They were closely connected. 6.Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2?考點(diǎn)17 易 A.complex. B.advanced. C.powerful. D.modern. 7.What is the main idea of the text? A.New languages will be created.考點(diǎn)17 易 B.People's lifestyles are reflected in

19、 languages. C.Human development results in fewer languages. D.Geography determines language evolution. C（考點(diǎn)17中難） Australia,the last continent,was discovered by ships belonging to some European nations in the seventeenth century, these nations were less interested in changing it into a colony(殖

20、民地)than in exploring(勘探)it.As in the early history of the United States,it was the English who set up the settlements(新拓展地 ) in Australia.This history and the geography of these two British colonies have some other things in common as well. Australia and the United States are about the same in size

21、,and their western lands are both not rich in soil.It was the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled, and both colonies soon began to develop towards the west.However,this westward movement took place more because the English were searching for better land than because

22、 the population was increasing.Settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in America in 1849and in Australia two years later. Although the development of these two countries has a lot in common,these are some striking differences as well.The United

23、 States gained its independence from England by revolution while Australia won its independence without having to go to war.Australia, unlike the United States,was firstly turned into a colony by English prisoners and its economic development was in wheat growing and sheep raising.By 1922,for exampl

24、e, Australia had fifteen times more sheep than it had people,or almost half as many sheep as the people there in the United States.Yet,in spite of these and other main differences, Australia and the United States have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the wo

54、,本文講述了不同的國(guó)家對(duì)于準(zhǔn)時(shí)的理解是不一樣的,是有文化差異的,故選D 2.詞義猜測(cè)題。being on time 是此題的解題思路:從原文"it is important to be on time,or punctual"中的or得出punctual和be on time意思相近。故選A。 3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文中的Were these students being rude?He decided to study the students'behavior?？芍麑?duì)此表示困惑,故選C 4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)In contrast,in Brazil,neither the teac

56、ed; that/which; feeding 解析： 本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文中講述了中國(guó)為保護(hù)環(huán)境在農(nóng)作物種植上做了一些變化并得到了世界上的知名認(rèn)識(shí)的認(rèn)可。 ①考查時(shí)態(tài)。since加時(shí)間點(diǎn),主句要用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。句意:2011年以來(lái),中國(guó)種植的玉米比水稻多。故填has grown。 ②考查冠詞。句意:玉米產(chǎn)量在過(guò)去25年里增長(zhǎng)了近125%,而大米只增長(zhǎng)了7%。故是特指在過(guò)去的25年里。故填the。 ③考查副詞。句意:對(duì)肉的需求實(shí)際上是這種變化的背后原因。句子結(jié)構(gòu)完整,用副詞修飾句子。故填actually。 ④考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意:為了改善水質(zhì)政府鼓勵(lì)農(nóng)民種植玉米而不是大米。沒(méi)有連詞可

57、以且謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是encourages,故improve應(yīng)該用非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。此處表示目的,故用不定式。故填to improve。 ⑤考查連詞。句意:玉米比大米使用的水更少。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞less可知,填比較連詞。故填than。 ⑥考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。句意:這一轉(zhuǎn)變減少了中國(guó)較大的湖泊和水庫(kù)的污染,使人們的飲用水更加安全。has decreased后跟名詞作賓語(yǔ),故填pollution。 ⑦考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。句意:中國(guó)約占全球化肥總消費(fèi)量的30%。fertilizer consumption是名詞短語(yǔ),故應(yīng)該用形容詞修飾。故填global。 ⑧考查謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意:在2005年政府開(kāi)始了一項(xiàng)土壤測(cè)試項(xiàng)目。本句

58、是when引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句,由于時(shí)間是2005年,故用過(guò)去時(shí)。故填started。 ⑨考查定語(yǔ)從句關(guān)系詞。根據(jù)空后的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞gives可知,該空缺少主語(yǔ),指代program并且引導(dǎo)后面的句子。指物用that/which,故填that或者which。 ⑩考查省略句。句意:中國(guó)在養(yǎng)活了中國(guó)人民的同時(shí)又保護(hù)了環(huán)境。這一做法為全世界的農(nóng)業(yè)和糧食政策制定人提供了很有用的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。空格處表示正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作,while后面省略掉了China is,省略句的原則:在時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句、條件狀語(yǔ)從句、,讓步狀語(yǔ)從句中,如果從句的主語(yǔ)和主句的主語(yǔ)一致且含有be動(dòng)詞時(shí),那么可以把主語(yǔ)和be動(dòng)詞一塊省略。故填feeding。

59、 （2）答案：against/from; done; healthier; are; running; themselves; that/which; importantly; how; a 解析： 【文章大意】跑步有益健康,但跑步時(shí)需要注意一些重要事項(xiàng)。 1.?against/from 考査介詞。protect sb. against/from...是習(xí)慣搭配,意思是“保護(hù)某人免遭……”。 2.?done考査非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。done in the US recently是過(guò)去分詞短語(yǔ)作定語(yǔ),分詞動(dòng)作do與被修飾詞research之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系。 3.?healthier

60、考査比較級(jí)。由句中than non-runners可知,這里應(yīng)該填healthy的比較級(jí)形式;a great deal修飾比較級(jí),表示程度, 意思是“……得多”。 4.?are考査時(shí)態(tài)與主謂一致。該句使用了完全倒裝,主語(yǔ)是ideas, 故謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞需用復(fù)數(shù)形式;這里說(shuō)的是一般性道理,用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。 5.?running考査非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。running regularly是現(xiàn)在分同短語(yǔ)作后置定語(yǔ),修飾people,分詞動(dòng)作run與邏輯主語(yǔ)people之間是主動(dòng)關(guān)系。 6.?themselves考査代詞。這里指的是這些人自己,故用they的反身代詞。 7.?that/which 考査定語(yǔ)從句。

61、that/which offer the best fit and support for your feet是定語(yǔ)從句,修飾先行詞the shoes,關(guān)系代詞that/which在從句中作主語(yǔ)。 8.?importantly 考査詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。由于修飾的是整個(gè)句子,故用important的副詞形式。 9.?how 考査名詞性從句。“what you did and how you felt”是兩個(gè)并列的賓語(yǔ)從句,其中how表示“怎樣”。 10.?a考査冠詞。have a rest是固定短語(yǔ),意思是“休息一會(huì)兒”。 （3）答案：1. a2.performances3. lik

62、e4. its5. creating6. have explored7. which8. because9. especially10. known 解析： 1.?a此處填不定冠詞a,表示“一”。 2.?performances考查名詞單復(fù)數(shù)。前面有a number of,表示 “許多”,后接可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)。 3.like考査介詞的用法。前文講的是他們也將參觀許多歷史名勝，如木蘭山和將軍廟。所以此處用like。 4.its考查代詞的用法。此處要用形容詞性物主代詞作定語(yǔ)修飾director。 5.?creating考查現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語(yǔ)。 6.?have explored考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)

63、。由本句中的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)in the last few years 可知此處用動(dòng)詞的現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)態(tài)。 7. which考查定語(yǔ)從句的關(guān)系詞。由于此處是非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,且先行詞指物,所以填which。 8.?because考查狀語(yǔ)從句。此處表原因。句意:Bancroft補(bǔ)充說(shuō):“我認(rèn)為花木蘭的傳說(shuō)之所以能吸引西方人主要是因?yàn)榛咎m對(duì)家人尤其是對(duì)她父親的尊重”。 9.?especially 考査詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。由語(yǔ)境可知,此處要用副詞especially。 10. known考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。此處用過(guò)去分詞known作定語(yǔ)修飾前面的Liu Yifei。 （4）答案：1. what ??????????2. for?????3. Where????????4. his/the????????????5.trying 6. were coming ????? 7.?angrier ??????8. to see ??????????9. was surrounded???10. an 13
