But there, she was shcked that it seemed as if n ne even knew abut it.(在访问期间,她意识到网上缺乏关于其历史和遗产的信息。这个地方的意义不仅在于历史,而且在于建筑。但在那里,她感到震惊的是,似乎没有人知道这件事)”可知,网上缺少关于Devanahalli Frt历史与遗迹的信息,Devanahalli Frt有着重要的历史和建筑意义,但似乎没有人知道这个地方,对此她感到惊讶。故选C。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段的“Besides restratin and preservatin, they hst heritage talks t familiarize peple with their city’s heritage.

【16题详解】
根据下文“It’s almst impssible t keep ding smething ver and ver again withut getting better at it, s when I say writing has imprved my writing skills, it wuld be flish t disagree.”(如果一件事不做得更好,反复做它几乎是不可能的,所以当我说写作提高了我的写作技巧时,不同意是愚蠢的。)可知,本段要谈了“(不断)写作让作者的写作技能得到提升。Practice makes perfect与下文中的It’s almst impssible t keep ding smething ver and ver again ... getting better at it ... has imprved my writing skills相呼应。故D选项“我们都知道“熟能生巧”这句话”切题。故选D项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Befre, I had t check and recheck every wrd I wanted t use in an article t be sure I was using it crrectly.”( 以前,我必须反复检查我想在文章中使用的每个单词,以确保我使用的是正确的。)根据下文“And I’m prud t say that I can use wrds effectively withut having t run t a dictinary every secnd.”( 我很自豪地说,我可以有效地使用单词,而不必每秒钟都去查字典。)可知,前一句是说,作者以前写作时要反复斟酌单词,后一句是说,她现在不需要查词典就能灵活使用单词,因此,C项“现在,我肩上轻松多了”符合语境。C项中的Nw和前一句中的Befre形成对照,that weight指代前一句中的I had t check and recheck every wrd。故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据设空处前一句“The mre I wrte, the mre my imaginatin grew s that everything arund me started becming an inspiratin fr an article.”(我写得越多,我的想象力就越丰富,所以我周围的一切都开始成为一篇文章的灵感)可知,作者的想象力越来越丰富,身边的任何东西都能成为她文章的灵感来源,因此,G项“我可以看着一支铅笔,写出一篇500字的文章”符合语境。G项是对前一句内容的具体举例说明。故选G项。

【36题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:传统中医是一种医疗保健系统,是一种患者接受天然植物,动物和矿物质药物的治疗。根据句意可知,设空处在从句中作谓语,此句描述一般事实,故用一般现在时。主语patients与treat是动宾关系,故用被动语态。主语patients是复数。故填are treated。
【37题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:人们认为,为了使一个人健康,阴阳力量应该平衡。根据句意及句子结构可知,此处考查固定句型It is believed that...。其中It作形式主语,that引导的从句作真正的主语,引导词that不可以省略。故填that。

【40题详解】
考查名词。句意:根据世界卫生组织的数据,世界上近80%的人口依靠植物和动物的药物来满足其初级卫生保健需求。名词rganizatin“组织”符合句意,Wrld Health Organizatin“世界卫生组织”作介词短语Accrding t宾语,专有名词,首字母大写。故填Organizatin。
【41题详解】

【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:在广泛使用传统药物的国家尤其如此。根据句意及句子结构可知,此处用副词widely,表示“广泛地”,作状语,修饰used。故填widely。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:然而,越来越多的现代药物也含有来自动物和植物的物质。根据句意可知,表示来自,用介词frm。故填frm。
【44题详解】
考查时态及主谓一致。句意:鉴于人口不断增长,财富不断增加,以及自然疗法在世界各地的普及,对这些药物和疗法的需求现在正在上升。根据句子结构可知,此处应填谓语动词。根据句意,此句描述现阶段正持续的状态,故用现在进行时。主语the demand是单数。故填is rising。
【45题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:结合栖息地的减少,不断增长的需求导致多年来用于药用目的的植物和动物物种数量惊人地增加。根据句子结构可知,此处填非谓语动词。The rising demand与cmbine是动宾关系,故用过去分词cmbined作后置定语。故填cmbined。

T sme peple, the sizzle and clatter f restaurant kitchens might be like an rchestra; t me, such sunds behind the swinging drs just meant chas. Hwever unpleasant I felt the places were, I decided t apply fr a part-time jb at a ppular restaurant. The reasn was simple: I needed mney. I wanted t jin a camping trip t the Blue Muntains with my friends, but that wuld cst abut 150 dllars. “Yu have t pay fr entertainment by yurself,” my parents said.
S I applied, and Mr. Smith, the bss f the restaurant, allwed me t have a try. My jb was super easy and bring: the newly prepared dishes wuld be put at the cunter between the kitchen and dining rm, and it was my duty t deliver them t the right custmers.
The first few days were tiring but OK. Hwever, setbacks sn fllwed as I struggled t keep pace during a particularly busy lunch rush. I awkwardly spilled a tray f drinks, making lud nises and the flr messy. I was embarrassed and began t feel nervus. One evening, I mixed up rders fr a large party, causing chas and frustratin.
I felt desperate. I screwed everything up. Then I heard Mr. Smith call me, and I went int his ffice with my head lw. T my surprise, he didn’t blame me. Instead, he made me a cup f cffee. “Relax, yung man,” he said. “Try t smile. Things always g wrng if yu can’t really enjy what yu’re ding. Feel the fun in the jb, and yu’ll be OK!”
I thught he was right. The next day when I was wrking, I glimpsed int the kitchen and was amazed: in the narrw and crwded space everyne was busy — the chefs swirling (翻动) pans, the manager yelling custmers’ requirements, thers cming and ging with dishes t deliver — but everything went smthly withut any lumping r bumping. This was incredible!
