    Ⅰ.根据提示填空
    The Duanwu Festival, also known, especially in the West, as the ❶Dragon_Boat_Festival (端午节), is a traditional holiday originating in China. The festival now ❷occurs (发生) on the 5th day of the 5th month of the ❸traditional (tradition) Chinese calendar, which is the source of the festival's alternative name, the Double Fifth Festival. The story best known in modern China holds that the festival is ❹in_honor_of (为了纪念) the death of the poet and minister Qu Yuan of the ancient State of Chu. However, when the king decided to ally(结盟) with the increasingly ❺powerful (power) State of Qin, Qu was driven away due to ❻opposing (oppose) the alliance. During his exile (流亡), Qu Yuan wrote a great deal of poetry. Ying, the Chu capital, ❼was_occupied (occupy) by Qin twenty­eight years later. In desperation, Qu Yuan committed suicide by ❽drowning (drown) himself in the Miluo River. It is said that the local people, who extremely admired him, raced out in their boats to save him or at least get his body back. This is said to have been the ❾origin (起源) of dragon boat races. When his body could not be found, they dropped balls of sticky rice covered (cover) with leaves into the river so that the fish would eat them instead of Qu Yuan's body. This is said how zongzi appeared.
    Ⅱ.片段选词填空

    The Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first Chinese lunar month, ❶marks the finale of the Spring Festival, and with it, come rich Chinese traditions and joyful ❷celebrations.
    At that night, people can see the full moon for the first time in a year.In Chinese,“yuan” literally means “first” and “xiao” ❸refers_to “night”. Therefore, the Lantern Festival has another name called Yuanxiao Festival.
    A traditional food also named yuanxiao has developed for this ❹occasion. They're rice balls with sweet fillings inside. On the day of the festival, people usually ❺get_together with all their family members to ❻have_a_dinner with yuanxiao, a must­have dish.
    To Chinese people's mind, ❼at_the_beginning_of a new year, when there is a bright full moon hanging in the sky, there should be thousands of ❽attractive lanterns. They are hung out for people to ❾appreciate. Children go out at night carrying paper lanterns, many of which are animal­shaped. People also go to parks or temples and solve_riddles on the lanterns. In modern days, more fantastic lights such as LEDs and lasers (激光灯) have come to decorate the night of the festival, in_addition_to the traditional ones.

    Food festivals around the world
    Stilton Cheese Rolling
    May Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes, roll a complete cheese along a 50­metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane (赛道).Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors are served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.
    Fiery Foods Festival — The Hottest Festival on Earth
    Every year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction — food that is not just spicy (辛辣), but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March. You might like to try a chocolate­covered habanero pepper — officially the hottest pepper in the world — or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure — if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you!
    La Tomatina — The World's Biggest Food Fight
    On the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Buol hosts La Tomatina — the world's largest food fight. A week­long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes — official fight­starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.
    The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again — and for a much­needed wash!

    此类试题直接指向原文特定词汇、短语和句型,要求对其进行准确理解。抓住文章中的细节是做好此类试题的关键,换句话说,此类试题大部分都可以在文章中找到与答案相关的信息或转换了说法的句子。
    因此,解题时,应认真阅读并仔细分析题干内容,确定好所询问细节的角度,然后带着所提问的细节角度回到原文,有针对性地查找答题所需信息。找到解题依据(即含有答案的信息句)后,应将其用下划线标出,以便与题干内容进行对照阅读和检查核对。这样可以有效防止读题时的认识错误或查找答题信息时的定位错误。如上文第58题,根据题干关键词La Tomatina可以定位到文章第三段“A week­long celebration”可知,La Tomatina的庆祝持续一周,故该题应选B项。

    The English developed their May Day Festival from the Roman festival called Floralia.In the festival of Floralia, the Romans gathered flowers to honor the goddess of spring, Flora.In the Middle Ages, May Day became the favorite holiday of many English villages.People gathered flowers to decorate their homes and churches, sang spring songs and chose a king and a queen of May.Villagers danced around a tall pole fixed upright in the ground, called a maypole, each holding the end of a ribbon attached to the top of the pole.They tied the ribbons around the pole until it was covered with bright colors.They collected dew (露水) on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth.
    Nowadays in Britain people no longer attach great importance to the day, but in some towns and villages people still celebrate it by choosing the May Queen and dancing around the maypole.May Queen is a girl selected as the most beautiful girl on May Day.She is usually crowned with flowers and often driven in procession through the street.In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain.
    But in many American towns and cities, children celebrate the day with dancing and singing.They often gather flowers in handmade paper baskets and hang them on the doorknobs of the homes of their friends' and neighbors' on May Day morning.At May Day parties, children select May Queen, dance around the maypole, and sing May Day songs.

    (2019·名校原创预测卷二)Even before we were born, we knew our mother's voice and could distinguish it from other voices. That's one of the key findings of an ongoing research project by Canadian and Chinese researchers. The research suggests that while we are still in the womb (子宫), our brains are learning speech patterns and laying the groundwork for language acquisition. “Before birth, the brain is being set up to learn language,” says Barbara Kisilevsky, who conducted the research.
    It had already been known that newborn babies show a preference for their mother's voice, but her latest research shows they also prefer that familiar sound while still in the womb. Kisilevsky carried out the first leg of the research in China, because she already had a research project under way there and this fit nicely with that work.
    Working with researchers at Zhejiang University, Kisilevsky tested 60 women in the final stage of pregnancy. All the mothers were tape­recorded as they read a poem out loud. Then the mothers were divided into two groups. Half the fetuses (胎儿) heard the recording of their own mother. The other half heard that of another mother, but not their own.
    In both cases, the poem caused a change in the baby's heart rate. The heart rate accelerated among those who heard their own mother's voice, and decelerated among those who heard a voice other than that of their mother's.
    Deceleration of the heart rate is “an attention mechanism (机制)”, Kisilevsky says. The heartbeat among fetuses who heard an unfamiliar voice slowed down, she says, because they were paying close attention to a voice they did not recognize. The fact that the heartbeat changed in both cases — up for Mom, down for someone else — shows the fetuses “noticed both voices”, she says, and could tell one from the other.
    By the way, the poem is immaterial here. Kisilevsky suspects she would have had the same results if the mothers had been reading a phone book. “It's not the content that the fetuses recognized,” she says. “We all have our own way of talking. We stop at different times, take breaths at different times, and that's what they are recognizing.”
    语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了一项有关胎儿对声音的识别的研究。
    8.What did Kisilevsky's research find?
    A.Babies are good language learners.
    B.Babies' language acquisition begins after birth.
    C.Babies can recognize Mom's voice while in the womb.
    D.Infants are more sensitive to Mom's voice than fetuses.
    解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句并结合下文内容可知,我们在出生之前就已经熟悉母亲的声音,并能将其与其他声音区分开来。由此可知,婴儿在母亲的子宫中就能识别母亲的声音。故选C。
    9.What led to the change in fetuses' heart rate according to the research?
    A.Their familiarity with the voice.
    B.The quality of the recordings.
    C.Their curiosity about everything.
    D.The content of the poem recorded.
    解析:选A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第二句可知,胎儿在听到不熟悉的声音时,他们的心跳会减慢,因为他们把更多的注意力放在了他们不能识别的这个声音上。由此可知,在研究中,胎儿对声音的熟悉度的不同导致了他们心率的变化。故选A。
    10.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
    A.Adults talk in a way quite different from babies.
    B.Kisilevsky firmly believes her findings are applicable.
    C.Speech patterns are what fetuses recognize in telling voices.
    D.Different experimental materials can lead to different results.
    解析:选C 推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容,尤其是“We all have our own way ...are recognizing”可知,胎儿在辨别声音时识别的是人们的说话方式,即他们的语言模式。故选C。
    11.In which column of a newspaper can we read this passage?
    A.Medicine. B.Lifestyle.
    C.Education. D.Science.
    解析:选D 文章出处题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了一项有关胎儿对声音的识别的研究,它最可能出现在报纸的科学专栏上。故选D。
    Ⅱ.阅读七选五
    On Thanksgiving, Scott Macaulay is preparing a full turkey dinner for a whole bunch of people he's never met.His 70 or so guests — elderly people, low­income people, at­risk teens, and others — have one detail in common:__1__
    “What I do isn't a big deal, really,” the 52­year­old said.“I just cook some food.”
    Macaulay's unconventional Thanksgiving tradition began in 1985, right around the time his parents decided to get divorced.The holidays got messy that year, and Macaulay, who was 24 at the time, sensed he'd be spending Thanksgiving alone.__2__
    “Thanksgiving isn't about fireworks or band concerts,” he said.“__3__ It's not fun to do that by yourself.”
    Macaulay placed an ad in his local paper with a simple message: If people thought they might be alone on Thanksgiving, they could give Macaulay a call.
    __4__It was nice.So he placed another ad the following year, and the year after that.
    In recent years, Macaulay has been hosting his Thanksgiving dinners at local churches with lots of space.He still buys and prepares all the food himself and spends about 40 hours putting the whole affair together.__5__He said it's important to him that he not seek out volunteers or donations because “that's not what this is about”.
    Macaulay said he'd love to see other people hold similar dinners all over the country.
    “I think someone in every town should do this,” he said,“so nobody has to be alone.”
    A.It was a terrible feeling.
    B.It's a celebration around a table with food.
    C.Without Macaulay, they'd be alone on Thanksgiving.
    D.A few people showed up at Macaulay's place that first year.
    E.On Thanksgiving Day, he runs around nonstop from about 5 am to 8 pm.
    F.I don't like the thought of cooking a Thanksgiving meal for only one person.
    G.He likes it that most of the people he feeds each Thanksgiving don't know his name.

    1.解析:选C 根据下文内容可知,Macaulay认为感恩节不应该独自度过,所以他宴请的客人都有一个共同点:“要不是Macaulay,他们都会独自度过感恩节”。
    2.解析:选A 结合全文内容及本空前的“he'd be spending Thanksgiving alone”不难推测,Macaulay认为独自过感恩节“感觉很糟糕”。
    3.解析:选B 根据本空前的“Thanksgiving isn't about fireworks or band concerts”及Macaulay连续多年请独自过感恩节的人吃饭可知,Macaulay认为感恩节不应该是放放烟火、看看演唱会,而应该是“围着桌子、吃着食物庆祝”。
    4.解析:选D 根据本空后的“It was nice”和“another ad the following year ...”可知,“第一年有几个人现身Macaulay的宴会”,因此他随后年年坚持做这件事。
    5.解析:选E 根据本空前一句可知,为了感恩节的宴会,Macaulay劳心劳力,故E项“在感恩节那天,他从凌晨五点忙到晚上八点”符合语境。
