三、阅读单选
When you, as a child, first picked up a crayon, a line might have been the first mark you make. You use lines to write numbers, symbols, and the letters of the alphabet. The lines on a map help you find the best route from one place to another. You use lines to draw pictures.
▲ You can see lines in the grain (纹理) of a piece of wood or in the cracks on a sidewalk. You can see lines outside a building or in the field. Lines are used to create words, numbers, and symbols. They are also used to create art. In drawing, line is an element (要素) of art that is the path of a moving point through space.
Artists use lines to lead your eyes through a work of art. They create lines in many ways. A line can be drawn on paper with a pencil or scratched into wet clay with stick. Depending on its direction, a line can express different ideas or feelings. This is why line is an important element in the language of art.
Lines are used to express different images in Chinese calligraphic drawing. The word calligraphy means beautiful handwriting. In China, calligraphy is used to form characters (汉字) that represent the language. However, characters are more than just a letter of the alphabet. They are like pictures. They can represent an idea, an object, or a verbal sound. Calligraphic lines are usually made with brushstrokes that change from thin to thick in one stroke. To make a very thin line, artists use the tip of the brush. As you press on the brush and more of it touches the paper, the line becomes wider. (See the painting on the right, the long, flowing leaves of the orchid [兰花] plant in the rocks are made with one flowing brushstroke. )
Now practice making calligraphic lines with ink or watercolor paint. Use brushes, both thin and thick, to draw a leaf or a vegetable with lines.
31.The passage mainly talks about ________.
A.lines B.calligraphy C.paintings D.brushstrokes
32.Which of the following can be put in ▲ in Paragraph 2 as a topic sentence?
A.Artists love lines. B.Paintings need lines.
C.Lines are everywhere. D.Lines can do everything.
33.Chinese calligraphic drawing is used as a(n) ________ in the passage.
A.reason B.example C.method D.opinion
34.The passage is most probably taken from a textbook of ________.
A.history B.math C.art D.science
Ever since Greg was 5 years old, he had watched his grandfather carve(雕刻) the small wooden figures(图形). Greg was amazed by the quickness of his grandfather’s fingers as he passed the carving knife from one hand to the other, breathing life into what was once a lifeless piece of wood. Few people had this skill like his grandfather. Greg often wished that he could create wonderful little wooden works as his grandfather did.
One day, Greg’s grandfather called the boy into the workshop. “Today is the day that you begin to learn the lost art of carving.” Greg couldn’t believe his ears as he pulled up a small tool next to his grandfather’s working table. The sharp smell of the wood filled his nose, and he moved in closely to where his grandfather was working. Greg’s head was soon filled with the names of the different tools his grandfather used to create the wooden treasures.
After the introduction to the tools was complete, Greg picked up a piece of wood to make his first try at carving. He loved the feel of the rough(粗糙的) wood biting into his fingers. He worked for hours that day, trying to learn much from his grandfather.
Although his small, wooden piece was far from perfect, both Greg and his grandfather were quite proud of the work Greg had done. “I will give this piece a place of honor on my shelf,” Greg’s grandfather told him. Greg’s eyes shone with joy. He knew that it would take many years to become as skillful as his grandfather, but Greg was going to enjoy every minute of it!
35.Why did Greg’s grandfather put Greg’s wooden figure on the shelf?
A.Because Greg’s grandfather used to put the wooden figures there.
B.Because Greg’s grandfather knew it was not a good piece of work.
C.Because Greg’s grandfather was proud of Greg’s first wooden carving.
D.Because Greg’s grandfather had never seen such a wonderful wood carving.
36.Why did Greg’s grandfather call wood carving a “lost art”?
A.No one knew how to carve wood by hand.
B.There were no books about how to carve wood.
C.Carving wood was done only by the lost people.
D.Not many people could carve wood by hand anymore.
37.What does the underlined part “breathing life into what was once a lifeless piece of wood” mean?
A.Greg’s grandfather would like to make a lifeless piece of wood.
B.Greg’s grandfather always blew on the wood before he carved it.
C.Greg’s grandfather couldn’t breathe when he carved the wooden figures.
D.Greg’s grandfather could make a real-looking figure from a piece of wood.
38.What would Greg probably do after he had his first lesson?
A.Keep working on it to get better.
B.Throw out his first wooden figure.
C.Cut down a tree in order to get wood.
D.Give up as he isn’t as good as his grandfather.

三、阅读单选
When you, as a child, first picked up a crayon, a line might have been the first mark you make. You use lines to write numbers, symbols, and the letters of the alphabet. The lines on a map help you find the best route from one place to another. You use lines to draw pictures.
▲ You can see lines in the grain (纹理) of a piece of wood or in the cracks on a sidewalk. You can see lines outside a building or in the field. Lines are used to create words, numbers, and symbols. They are also used to create art. In drawing, line is an element (要素) of art that is the path of a moving point through space.
Artists use lines to lead your eyes through a work of art. They create lines in many ways. A line can be drawn on paper with a pencil or scratched into wet clay with stick. Depending on its direction, a line can express different ideas or feelings. This is why line is an important element in the language of art.
Lines are used to express different images in Chinese calligraphic drawing. The word calligraphy means beautiful handwriting. In China, calligraphy is used to form characters (汉字) that represent the language. However, characters are more than just a letter of the alphabet. They are like pictures. They can represent an idea, an object, or a verbal sound. Calligraphic lines are usually made with brushstrokes that change from thin to thick in one stroke. To make a very thin line, artists use the tip of the brush. As you press on the brush and more of it touches the paper, the line becomes wider. (See the painting on the right, the long, flowing leaves of the orchid [兰花] plant in the rocks are made with one flowing brushstroke. )
Now practice making calligraphic lines with ink or watercolor paint. Use brushes, both thin and thick, to draw a leaf or a vegetable with lines.
31.The passage mainly talks about ________.
A.lines B.calligraphy C.paintings D.brushstrokes
32.Which of the following can be put in ▲ in Paragraph 2 as a topic sentence?
A.Artists love lines. B.Paintings need lines.
C.Lines are everywhere. D.Lines can do everything.
33.Chinese calligraphic drawing is used as a(n) ________ in the passage.
A.reason B.example C.method D.opinion
34.The passage is most probably taken from a textbook of ________.
A.history B.math C.art D.science
Ever since Greg was 5 years old, he had watched his grandfather carve(雕刻) the small wooden figures(图形). Greg was amazed by the quickness of his grandfather’s fingers as he passed the carving knife from one hand to the other, breathing life into what was once a lifeless piece of wood. Few people had this skill like his grandfather. Greg often wished that he could create wonderful little wooden works as his grandfather did.
One day, Greg’s grandfather called the boy into the workshop. “Today is the day that you begin to learn the lost art of carving.” Greg couldn’t believe his ears as he pulled up a small tool next to his grandfather’s working table. The sharp smell of the wood filled his nose, and he moved in closely to where his grandfather was working. Greg’s head was soon filled with the names of the different tools his grandfather used to create the wooden treasures.
After the introduction to the tools was complete, Greg picked up a piece of wood to make his first try at carving. He loved the feel of the rough(粗糙的) wood biting into his fingers. He worked for hours that day, trying to learn much from his grandfather.
Although his small, wooden piece was far from perfect, both Greg and his grandfather were quite proud of the work Greg had done. “I will give this piece a place of honor on my shelf,” Greg’s grandfather told him. Greg’s eyes shone with joy. He knew that it would take many years to become as skillful as his grandfather, but Greg was going to enjoy every minute of it!

B.Because Greg’s grandfather knew it was not a good piece of work.
C.Because Greg’s grandfather was proud of Greg’s first wooden carving.
D.Because Greg’s grandfather had never seen such a wonderful wood carving.
36.Why did Greg’s grandfather call wood carving a “lost art”?
A.No one knew how to carve wood by hand.
B.There were no books about how to carve wood.
C.Carving wood was done only by the lost people.
D.Not many people could carve wood by hand anymore.
37.What does the underlined part “breathing life into what was once a lifeless piece of wood” mean?
A.Greg’s grandfather would like to make a lifeless piece of wood.
B.Greg’s grandfather always blew on the wood before he carved it.
C.Greg’s grandfather couldn’t breathe when he carved the wooden figures.
D.Greg’s grandfather could make a real-looking figure from a piece of wood.

C.Cut down a tree in order to get wood.
D.Give up as he isn’t as good as his grandfather.

三、阅读单选
When you, as a child, first picked up a crayon, a line might have been the first mark you make. You use lines to write numbers, symbols, and the letters of the alphabet. The lines on a map help you find the best route from one place to another. You use lines to draw pictures.
▲ You can see lines in the grain (纹理) of a piece of wood or in the cracks on a sidewalk. You can see lines outside a building or in the field. Lines are used to create words, numbers, and symbols. They are also used to create art. In drawing, line is an element (要素) of art that is the path of a moving point through space.
Artists use lines to lead your eyes through a work of art. They create lines in many ways. A line can be drawn on paper with a pencil or scratched into wet clay with stick. Depending on its direction, a line can express different ideas or feelings. This is why line is an important element in the language of art.
Lines are used to express different images in Chinese calligraphic drawing. The word calligraphy means beautiful handwriting. In China, calligraphy is used to form characters (汉字) that represent the language. However, characters are more than just a letter of the alphabet. They are like pictures. They can represent an idea, an object, or a verbal sound. Calligraphic lines are usually made with brushstrokes that change from thin to thick in one stroke. To make a very thin line, artists use the tip of the brush. As you press on the brush and more of it touches the paper, the line becomes wider. (See the painting on the right, the long, flowing leaves of the orchid [兰花] plant in the rocks are made with one flowing brushstroke. )
Now practice making calligraphic lines with ink or watercolor paint. Use brushes, both thin and thick, to draw a leaf or a vegetable with lines.
31.The passage mainly talks about ________.
A.lines B.calligraphy C.paintings D.brushstrokes
32.Which of the following can be put in ▲ in Paragraph 2 as a topic sentence?
A.Artists love lines. B.Paintings need lines.
C.Lines are everywhere. D.Lines can do everything.
33.Chinese calligraphic drawing is used as a(n) ________ in the passage.
A.reason B.example C.method D.opinion
34.The passage is most probably taken from a textbook of ________.
A.history B.math C.art D.science
Ever since Greg was 5 years old, he had watched his grandfather carve(雕刻) the small wooden figures(图形).

Few people had this skill like his grandfather. Greg often wished that he could create wonderful little wooden works as his grandfather did.
One day, Greg’s grandfather called the boy into the workshop. “Today is the day that you begin to learn the lost art of carving.” Greg couldn’t believe his ears as he pulled up a small tool next to his grandfather’s working table. The sharp smell of the wood filled his nose, and he moved in closely to where his grandfather was working. Greg’s head was soon filled with the names of the different tools his grandfather used to create the wooden treasures.
After the introduction to the tools was complete, Greg picked up a piece of wood to make his first try at carving. He loved the feel of the rough(粗糙的) wood biting into his fingers. He worked for hours that day, trying to learn much from his grandfather.
Although his small, wooden piece was far from perfect, both Greg and his grandfather were quite proud of the work Greg had done. “I will give this piece a place of honor on my shelf,” Greg’s grandfather told him. Greg’s eyes shone with joy. He knew that it would take many years to become as skillful as his grandfather, but Greg was going to enjoy every minute of it!
35.Why did Greg’s grandfather put Greg’s wooden figure on the shelf?
A.Because Greg’s grandfather used to put the wooden figures there.
B.Because Greg’s grandfather knew it was not a good piece of work.
C.Because Greg’s grandfather was proud of Greg’s first wooden carving.
D.Because Greg’s grandfather had never seen such a wonderful wood carving.
36.Why did Greg’s grandfather call wood carving a “lost art”?
A.No one knew how to carve wood by hand.
B.There were no books about how to carve wood.
C.Carving wood was done only by the lost people.
D.Not many people could carve wood by hand anymore.
37.What does the underlined part “breathing life into what was once a lifeless piece of wood” mean?
A.Greg’s grandfather would like to make a lifeless piece of wood.
B.Greg’s grandfather always blew on the wood before he carved it.
C.Greg’s grandfather couldn’t breathe when he carved the wooden figures.
D.Greg’s grandfather could make a real-looking figure from a piece of wood.
38.What would Greg probably do after he had his first lesson?
A.Keep working on it to get better.
B.Throw out his first wooden figure.
C.Cut down a tree in order to get wood.
D.Give up as he isn’t as good as his grandfather.

33.is praised
【解析】
【详解】
句意:当一个做了好事的人受到表扬时,他会感到高兴。本题中“When”引导的从句遵循“主将从现”的原则,这里从句用一般现在时;主语“a person”与谓语动词“praise”之间是被动关系,而主语又是三单,所以用is done的形式。故填is praised。
34.alive
【解析】
【详解】
句意:《恐龙世界》是一部使恐龙活灵活现的科幻电影。所给词live为实义动词“生活、居住”,其形容词alive意为“活的”,修饰名词时常常后置,且bring sth alive为固定短语“使…活灵活现”,故答案填alive。

36.appearance
【解析】
【详解】
句意:在1989年,赫本在电影《永远》中最后一次露面,扮演的是天使的角色。所给词appear为动词“出现”。本空置于形容词final“最终的”之后,故应使用其名词形式,故填appearance。
37.directed
【解析】
【详解】
句意:《英雄》是张艺谋指导的一部动作电影,它是一项巨大的成功。所给词direct作动词时意为“指导、导演”,作形容词意为“直接的”。句中film与direct构成被动关系,故此处应用过去分词形式作后置定语,故答案为directed。

42. divided us into make up
【解析】
【详解】
由汉语和所给的英语翻译可知,“分成”译成:divide into;“编写”译成:make up;结合语境分析,此题的时态为一般过去时,因此第一个空需用divided,用us作divided 的宾语;第二个空是how+动词不定式结构,这里用动词原形。故填divided us into;make up。
43.sounds much more exciting than country music
【解析】
【详解】
句子描述一般情况,用一般现在时,主语是“Rock music”,谓语动词用第三人称单数sounds“听起来”;此处表示比较,应用形容词的比较级more exciting“更让人激动”作表语;much可以修饰比较级,表示程度更高;than“比”;country music“乡村音乐”。故填sounds much more exciting than country music。

47.is famous for its beautiful landscape
【解析】
【详解】
根据情境可知,本句为一般现在时;“be famous for”意为“以……闻名”,根据“The Mount Huang”为单数,“be”应该使用“is”;“beautiful landscape”意为“美丽的地形”,根据情境可知,这里应该表示“以其美丽的地形而闻名”,应该加上“its”。故填:is famous for its beautiful landscape。
48.your robot’s batteries to last

When you, as a child, first picked up a crayon, a line might have been the first mark you make. You use lines to write numbers, symbols, and the letters of the alphabet. The lines on a map help you find the best route from one place to another. You use lines to draw pictures.
▲ You can see lines in the grain (纹理) of a piece of wood or in the cracks on a sidewalk. You can see lines outside a building or in the field. Lines are used to create words, numbers, and symbols. They are also used to create art. In drawing, line is an element (要素) of art that is the path of a moving point through space.
Artists use lines to lead your eyes through a work of art. They create lines in many ways. A line can be drawn on paper with a pencil or scratched into wet clay with stick. Depending on its direction, a line can express different ideas or feelings. This is why line is an important element in the language of art.
Lines are used to express different images in Chinese calligraphic drawing. The word calligraphy means beautiful handwriting. In China, calligraphy is used to form characters (汉字) that represent the language. However, characters are more than just a letter of the alphabet. They are like pictures. They can represent an idea, an object, or a verbal sound. Calligraphic lines are usually made with brushstrokes that change from thin to thick in one stroke. To make a very thin line, artists use the tip of the brush. As you press on the brush and more of it touches the paper, the line becomes wider. (See the painting on the right, the long, flowing leaves of the orchid [兰花] plant in the rocks are made with one flowing brushstroke. )
Now practice making calligraphic lines with ink or watercolor paint. Use brushes, both thin and thick, to draw a leaf or a vegetable with lines.
31.The passage mainly talks about ________.
A.lines B.calligraphy C.paintings D.brushstrokes
32.Which of the following can be put in ▲ in Paragraph 2 as a topic sentence?
A.Artists love lines. B.Paintings need lines.
C.Lines are everywhere. D.Lines can do everything.
33.Chinese calligraphic drawing is used as a(n) ________ in the passage.
A.reason B.example C.method D.opinion
34.The passage is most probably taken from a textbook of ________.
A.history B.math C.art D.science
Ever since Greg was 5 years old, he had watched his grandfather carve(雕刻) the small wooden figures(图形). Greg was amazed by the quickness of his grandfather’s fingers as he passed the carving knife from one hand to the other, breathing life into what was once a lifeless piece of wood. Few people had this skill like his grandfather. Greg often wished that he could create wonderful little wooden works as his grandfather did.
One day, Greg’s grandfather called the boy into the workshop. “Today is the day that you begin to learn the lost art of carving.” Greg couldn’t believe his ears as he pulled up a small tool next to his grandfather’s working table. The sharp smell of the wood filled his nose, and he moved in closely to where his grandfather was working. Greg’s head was soon filled with the names of the different tools his grandfather used to create the wooden treasures.
After the introduction to the tools was complete, Greg picked up a piece of wood to make his first try at carving. He loved the feel of the rough(粗糙的) wood biting into his fingers. He worked for hours that day, trying to learn much from his grandfather.
Although his small, wooden piece was far from perfect, both Greg and his grandfather were quite proud of the work Greg had done. “I will give this piece a place of honor on my shelf,” Greg’s grandfather told him.

A.No one knew how to carve wood by hand.
B.There were no books about how to carve wood.
C.Carving wood was done only by the lost people.
D.Not many people could carve wood by hand anymore.

C.Greg’s grandfather couldn’t breathe when he carved the wooden figures.
