三、阅读理解

1. TheCurseoftheWere-Rabbit(2005) is the first full-length feature film made by directors Nick Park and Steve Box with their amazing plasticine(粘土) characters Wallace and Gromit. It won an Oscar in 2006, and if you watch it, you’ll understand why. It’s an absolutely brilliant cartoon comedy. Cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his brainy dog Gromit have started a company to protect the town’s vegetables from hungry rabbits. However, just before the annual Giant Vegetable Competition, an enormous rabbit begins terrorising the town. It is attacking all the vegetables and destroying everything in its path. The competition organizer, Lady Tottington, hires Wallace and Gromit to catch the monster alive. But they will have to find the were-rabbit before gun-crazy hunter Victor Quartermaine who is desperate to kill it. The screenplay is witty and full of amusing visual jokes. As usual, the voice of Peter Sallis is absolutely perfect for the role of Wallace, and Gromit is so beautifully brought to life, he can express a huge range of emotions without saying a word. And both Helena Bonham-Carter, who plays the part of Lady Tottington, and Ralph Fiennes as Victor are really funny. To sum up, TheCurseoftheWere-Rabbit is an amazing film which is suitable for both children and adults. If you liked Wallace and Gromit’s previous adventures and you appreciate the British sense of humour, you’ll love this film. Don’t miss it！【1】According to the film review, “monster” refers to ________. A．a gun-crazy hunter B．a scary rabbit

C．a brainy dog D．a giant vegetable

【2】Which of the following is a reason why the writer recommends the film? A．It’s full of wit and humour.

B．Its characters show feelings without words. C．It is an adventure film directed by Peter Sallis. D．It is about the harmony between man and animals.

2.No one can deny that buttons are an important clothing device.But，can they rise to the level of art? Organizers of an exhibit in New York think so.

Peter Souleo Wright organized “The Button Show” at Rush Arts Gallery in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.Eleven artists used the small，ordinary objects to create sculptures，portraits and wearable art.Some of the works are political，some are personal and others are just fun.

Wright said each artist reimagines and repurposes the buttons to make art.“What I tried to do with this show，” he said，“was to look at artists who were promoting that level of craft.”

He said he wanted the button art to be comparable to a painting “because of the amount of detail and precision in the work”．

Artist Beau McCall produced “A Harlem Hangover”．It looks like a wine bottle that fell over on a table.A stream of connected red buttons hangs over the side，like wine flowing down.Similar red buttons form a small pool on the floor.

McCall layers buttons of different shapes and sizes to create the bottle.The stitching that holds them together is also part of the artistic design. For San Francisco-based artist Lisa Kokin，buttons are highly personal.After her father died in 2001，she

created a portrait of him using only buttons.That memorial to her father led to other button portraits，including those of activists Rosa Parks and Cesar Chavez.

Others use buttons for details.Artist Amalia Amaki of Tuscaloosa，Alabama，placed them on and around old photographs.Los Angeles artist Camilla Taylor attached buttons to three large sculptures that look like headless animals with long，narrow legs.

“The Button Show” ends on March 12.The Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation paid for the exhibition.The foundation was created in 1995 by the Simmons brothers: artist Danny，hip-hop producer Russell and rapper

Rev.Run.The foundation seeks to bring the artists to urban youth and to provide support for new artists. 【1】Why did Wright organize “The Button Show”？ A．To show the importance of buttons. B．To support the new artists.

C．To raise the button show to the level of art. D．To create sculptures and portraits.

【2】Whose works are personal? A．Peter Souleo Wright. B．Beau McCall.

C．Lisa Kokin. D．Amalia Amaki.

【3】If you want to see “The Button Show”，you should . A．buy tickets before March 12

B．phone Peter Souleo Wright before March 12 C．go to Rush Arts Gallery

D．go to the Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation

3.Scientists often wonder how the eight-armed octopus(章鱼) avoids getting tangled(缠结) around itself. This

mystery is particularly confusing given that each arm is lined with hundreds of suckers(吸盘) that are strong enough to stick to almost anything and the fact that octopuses have no idea where their arms are at any given moment.

Now, some researchers from Harvard University may have finally solved the puzzle. They believe that whenever the octopuses sense their own skin, they release a chemical signal that disables the suckers for a short time. The team of scientists led by Professor Nir Nesher became interested in this well-kept secret when they noticed

that the suckers on amputated(被切除的) octopus arms, which remain active for up to one hour after being cut off, never seemed to stick to their own or the amputated arms of any other octopuses. Curiously, they carried out a lab experiment using twenty-one amputated arms that were still active. Sure enough, none tried to grasp the

others.

However, when they removed the skin from a couple of the arms, the suckers on the others immediately came alive and reached out for them. This led the researchers to suspect that the octopus released a chemical signal, which soon shut down the suckers whenever it sensed one of its own hands.

To prove their theory, the researchers performed another experiment, in which they coated tow Petri dishes(皮氏培养皿)—one with octopus skin extract(提取物) and the other with fish skin extract. Then they tested each with the amputated octopus arms that were still active. What they discovered was that the force required to separate the arm from the Petri dish coated with the octopus skin extract was twenty times weaker than that required to separate the arm from the Petri dish containing fish skin extract.

Nesher and his team then took the experiment one step further by offering live octopuses the amputated arms. The results were mixed. In some cases, the octopuses grabbed them just like they would grab any other things, while in other cases, they ignored them completely. When the researchers analyzed the results, they realized that the animals had avoided the amputated arms that had once belonged to them, but happily grabbed at the ones from other members of their own species.

Nesher believes the findings will help scientists make better soft-bodied robots—ones that can function efficiently

without getting tangled around themselves.

【1】The octopuses release a chemical signal in order to ________. A．help themselves better find food to feed on B．help themselves better sense their own skin C．help their arms avoid grasping each other

D．help their amputated arms remain active for longer

【2】We know that the second experiment ________. A．greatly puzzled the researchers B．led to a very disappointing result C．was done by some other researchers

D．proved what the researchers had believed was true

【3】What can we learn from Paragraph 6? A．Octopuses often grasp things aimlessly. B．Some octopuses are different from others. C．Octopuses cannot recognize things easily. D．Octopuses may grasp arms of others.

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A．Why octopuses tend to grasp anything that they meet. B．How octopuses avoid getting tangled around themselves.

C．How octopuses recognize their members among many species. D．Why amputated octopus arms can still be active after being cut off.

4.Thomas had achieved fame as a poet in the 1930s and had spent World War Two in London writing

propaganda(宣传) films. But by 1946, after the end of the war, he needed a regular income to support his wife Caitlin, and children Llewelyn and Aeronwy. Luckily he had a new admirer in the form of Margaret Taylor, wife of noted historian and broadcaster A．J.P Taylor. Introduced as an “entertaining guest” by a mutual friend, he had succeeded in charming Mrs Taylor, who put the family up in a summerhouse in their garden in the grounds of Magdalen College(牛津大学莫德林学院)．① Thomas had a love-hate relationship with Oxford, according to his biographer Andrew Lycett. His poetry may

have brought him respect and celebrity in literary circles, but in Oxford he felt at odds with his surroundings. “His father, who had been a schoolmaster in Swansea, would have liked him to go to Oxford University, ” Mr Lycett explains. “When he did actually get to Oxford he wasn’t actually at the university. It was a curious period. He was in this academic environment though he wasn’t a born academic himself. But he generally enjoyed himself

because he got to know some of the professors there. He wasn’t popular among them, because they thought he was a bit of a wastrel(不务正业者), so he hung out in pubs and met students.”②

Thomas also took paid jobs at the BBC, regularly travelling to London and became something of a celebrity through appearing on panel shows.③

“He didn’t really endear(使受垂青) himself to Professor Taylor，” Mr Lycett says. “He overstayed his welcome. The professor liked to have a barrel of beer in the house and Dylan would finish it off. He just took a dislike to him, partly because, reading between the lines, his wife rather fancied this young man.” Mark Davies, an Oxford historian, says Professor Taylor disliked the poet “intensely”. “He ended up being banished(驱逐) a safe distance away from his wife,” he adds.

This banishment was in the picturesque village of South Leigh, nine miles out from the city, in a house set up for Thomas by Margaret, who continued to be his proud sponsor. However, it was here that his granddaughter Hannah Ellis believes Thomas found much of the inspiration for one of his most famous works, the radio drama UnderMilkWood. “South Leigh is hugely important because that was one of those villages where he met all the different characters and it helped him arouse his passion,” she says. “The play had been a seed from when he was about 20 and I think it was that village lifestyle and all the characters that helped. He liked sitting in the

corner of the pub, watching all the drama going on. Also he had somewhere quiet to work and a home. For such a long time he hadn’t settled and it was a good period in his life.”④

Mrs Taylor also helped him return to Wales when he was ready in 1949, buying him a boathouse with her own money. He lived there for the remainder of his life.

“People so often focus on the other periods of his life and they forget about Oxford，” adds Ms Ellis. “They see the romantic period of living in Laugharne at the boathouse, and the contrast of the chaotic times in New York.” “There’s just something interesting about this little Welshman wandering around the streets of Oxford，” adds Mr Lycett. “The period isn’t discussed much. Somehow or other there was this intervening period that tends to get forgotten. People don’t realize he was starting to think about UnderMilkWood so it wasn’t unproductive. His time in Oxford was an important period of his life.”

Indeed Mr Davies believes Thomas’s connection to Oxford would be better known if he had studied at the

university. “Because he didn’t and he was only here as a guest of the college it has been brushed to one side，” he said. “There are some great historical characters who, because they’re not associated with the university, have been pushed sideways out of history.”

A new tour, organized by Literature Wales, aims to make this clear. Its trail takes in the poet’s summerhouse, and the village that became his home. It means the city will finally take the time to remember and treasure one more person in its long line of literary giants.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE about Thomas’s life in Oxford? A．Most of his works were created there. B．He wasn’t popular among students there.

C．Professors didn’t think he was academic enough. D．Knowing professors there brought him respect.

【2】What does the underlined sentence “He overstayed his welcome.” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．He stayed much longer than he had planned to.

B．He behaved inappropriately so that he was no longer welcome. C．He decided to return to Wales because he was more popular there. D．He was thinking about moving to South Leigh he had been dreaming of.

【3】What inspired Thomas to write UnderMilkWood? A．Studying at Oxford. B．Living in South Leigh. C．Living with the Taylors.

D．Learning from historical characters.

【4】What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to? A．His time in Oxford tends to get forgotten. B．He was only a guest when he was in Oxford.

C．There is something interesting about this little man. D．His connection to Oxford should be remembered.

【5】What did Mrs Taylor do for Thomas? ①She put him and his family up in Oxford. ②She helped him to publish his poetry.

③She set up a house for him at South Leigh. ④She introduced him to professors in Oxford. ⑤She bought him a boathouse in Wales. A．①②④ C．①③⑤

B．①③④ D．②③⑤

【6】Where should “However, after a year living with the Taylors, things turned sour.” be put? A．① B．② C．③ D．④

四、其他

A lot of life’s energies are neutral(中性的)，and it is we who interpret them to be positive or negative. However, the human part of us makes us more likely to think negatively of things and be affected by negative things. When the inner or deeper soul fails to maintain positivity around, it only creates more space for us to feel low and

negative. Negativity is most commonly created in an individual by himself/herself. Thoughts, feelings, words and even a negative attitude can develop negative energy in and around you.

Negative energy can affect the very essence(本质) of living that one believes in. It slowly grows and conquers your mind and spirit. It’s important that we avoid attracting negative waves, and focus on more positivity around us. A lot of people feel negative and have no idea as to how to get rid of it. Well, it isn’t easy to surface after drowning in negativity, but it sure isn’t impossible.

To bring back and attract positivity in your life, you are supposed to start with analyzing yourself, stop looking at your flaws, and highlight all the good aspects about you. Meanwhile, take the time to look within yourself and assess what can be changed and what is out of reach. It’s important to focus on changing the things that you have control over, because this is where you will see the most self-improvement.

Learn to get along with people. Don’t look down upon people, but treat them with respect and deal with people in the way that you would expect other people to treat you. Also stay away from envy, and stop finding faults and flaws in others, because negative energy survives on envy and hatred. So rid yourself of these devils and you will attract more positive energy.

Believe in your dreams and will power, and work hard to achieve your goals. Write down what you feel. Write

down the good things that happened to you and feel appreciation. Thank yourself for a cheerful day. On the other hand, realize that ups and downs are a part of life and that we cannot have pleasant times always. When negativity occurs, don’t panic but face it.

The list is endless as even the smallest things in life can attract positivity. We’ve discussed some of the important aspects. So change yourself for the better, and meanwhile embrace all that life has to give you. Make sure that you have a lot of positive people and positive things around you all the time.

Bring Positive Energy into Your Life Causes of negative energy ·The nature of energies 【1】 on the people who interpret them, and we tend to be sensitive to negativity. ·Failing to maintain positivity increases the 【2】 of feeling negative. ·Many things can develop negative energy in you.

五、书面表达

请阅读下面短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。 Lang Lang is a world-class pianist who grew up in Shenyang. He went to a piano school in Beijing when he was

just eight. “You need fortune,” his father said. “But unless you work hard, no fortune will come.”

What made Lang Lang sad was that his piano teacher in Beijing didn’t like him. “You have no talent. You will never be a pianist.” As an eightyearold boy, Lang Lang was badly hurt. For the next two weeks he didn’t touch the piano. Wisely, his father didn’t push him, but waited.

around. He started winning competitions. Soon it was clear that he couldn’t stay in China forever—he had to play on the world’s big stages. In 1997 Lang Lang moved again, this time to Philadelphia, the US.

There he spent two years practicing and by 1999 he had worked hard enough for fortune to take over. After his successful performance at Chicago’s Raviniu Festival, concerts in Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall started pouring in. Lang Lang finally worked to reach the place where fortune spots him and lets him shine. 写作内容

【解析】本题考查时态。句意：——他们的工作进行的怎么样了？——就如我们计划的那样顺利。A表示一般将来时，B表示被动语态的现在进行时，C表示一般过去时，D主动语态的现在进行时。从题意思可知道主语是人，应该用主动语态，先有计划在按计划实施，所以计划是过去发生的事情，所以时态应该是一般过去时，因此应该选C

14.Don’t be too nervous.The government is keeping a close watch on the situation develops. A．how B．what C．when D．that

【答案】A

【解析】句意：不要太紧张。正严密监视着事态的发展。分析句子结构可知，空处引导宾语从句，作介词on的宾语，且此处表达“事态是如何发展的”，故用表示方式的how。

【答案】D

【解析】考查谚语和情景交际。句意：——时光飞逝啊，高考即将来临，我们得抓住每分每秒。——确实！俗话说，时光一去不复返。time will tell时间会证明一切；time and chance reveal all secrets时间和机遇揭示一切秘密；time tries truth时间检验真理；time lost cannot be won again时光一去不复返。故D项符合语境。

做好细节理解题的几点建议：

细节理解题属直接解答性问题，是阅读理解题中最简单的一种，多数属中低难度的题。但高考所占的比例大，应特别引起注意。事实和细节题的命题特点是：对文章或某一段落中的一些特定细节或文章重要事实的理解，一般包括直接理解题和语义转化题。直接理解题能在原文直接找到答案，而语义转化题则需要将题目信息与原文信息加工或整理后才能得出结论。

做细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下：

①略读材料，大概了解原文，掌握中心或主旨；

②按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。如for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实；

③将自己精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。快速通篇跳读，全文扫视，找到细节出处，待找到含细节句子时，放慢速度，仔细核对比较内容，直至找到答案。比如文章第26小题根据 “For San Francisco-based artist Lisa Kokin，buttons are highly personal．”可知C正确，故选C. 第27小题根据第二段“Peter Souleo Wright organized “The Button Show．”at Rush Arts Gallery in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan．”可知，Wright组织的“纽扣展示”是在Rush Arts Gallery。故选C。

【答案】C

【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段内容以及第二段第二句“They believe that whenever the octopuses sense their own skin, they release a chemical signal that disables the suckers for a short time.”可知，章鱼释放化学信号是为了让吸盘暂时不能使用，也就是不让自己的触腕缠绕在一起。故选C。

【2】We know that the second experiment ________. A．greatly puzzled the researchers B．led to a very disappointing result C．was done by some other researchers

D．proved what the researchers had believed was true

【答案】D

【解析】推理判断题。根据第六段最后一句“...the animals had avoided the amputated arms that had once

belonged to them, but happily grabbed at the ones from other members of their own species.”可以判断，章鱼能够避免抓住原属于自己身体的触腕，但它们可以抓住属于别的章鱼身体的触腕。故选D。
