21.Mycroft Holmes and Sherlock Hohnes are brothers. There is uncommon similarity between two men.
A.an;/ B.an;the C.a;/ D.a;the
【答案】B
【详解】句意:Mycroft Holmes和Sherlock Hohnes是兄弟,这两个人之间有一种罕见的相似之处。考查冠词用法。第一个设空处表达的意思是“罕见的相似之处”表泛指,其中形容词uncommon的发音[ n k m n]是以元音音素开头,所以用不定冠词an;第二个设空处表示“那两个男人”,是特指,所以用定冠词the,故答案选B。
【点睛】本题考查冠词用法。冠词分为定冠词、不定冠词和零冠词。不定冠词包括a和an ,表示泛指某人或某物,a用于辅音音素开头的单词前面;an用于元音音素开头的单词前面。The是定冠词,表示特指某个(些)人或者物,或者在文中再次提到该事物时;零冠词用于一些特殊的结构中。本题根据题干可知第一个空表示泛指,而且形容词uncommon的发音是以元音因素开头的,所以用不定冠词an;第二个空表示特指“那两个男人”,所以用定冠词the;故答案选B。

七、阅读单选(共30分)
A
Art is a powerful tool for telling a scientific (科学的) story. Many scientific fields study the strangest of the animal kingdom, like animals with a lot of eyes and bodies so different from our own. Art can help us experience these hard-to-imagine parts of the natural world and light new scientific discoveries.
Alia Payne, an art professor, came to the National Museum of Natural History to work with the live jellyfish (水母) collections. She always got the same question from visitors. “How do jellyfish stings (蜇刺) work ” She had the scientific answer but found it difficult to explain without a clear sight. An idea went through her mind. She built a 3D model of one of the stinging cells that visitors could touch. “I have always loved art for education.” said Payne. “We learn more easily when we have something to play with.”
While art helps people experience science. It also helps scientists understand the natural world. Dr Osborn, a zoologist at the museum, studies the surprising sea animals of the ocean’s largest habitat (栖息地)—the midwater. Midwater sea animals have special features to survive in their habitat, and Osborn’s research helps us understand what these animals look like. “So I started learning photography,” Osborn explained. “It was really important because these animals don’t look so great when they are put in the glass box in the museum’s collections.”
Artistic creativity provides a chance to show off the bright colours, special body shapes and good adaptations (适应性) of these animals to the museum’s scientists, visitors and the world. In turn, art connects scientists to their own creativity and helps with their scientific process (过程) and the communication of their discoveries. By joining science with imagination and storytelling, art helps show the beauty of the sea animals—even those fit for horror movies—and connects people with their curiosity for the strangeness of the animal kingdom.
36.What can we learn about art from Paragraph 1
A.It helps us catch the strangest animals.
B.It can tell us a lot of stories about scientists.
C.It can tell the differences between nature and science.
D.It can provide us with a new view for exploring science.
37.What is Alia Payne’s purpose of building a 3D model
A.She wants to show off. B.She needs to get that job.
C.She wants to explain science in a simple way. D.She hopes visitors can buy jellyfish in the museum.
38.Dr Osborn started learning photography because he ________.
A.hoped to be famous B.wanted to improve his work
C.was curious about photography D.tried to study the food for sea animals
39.How does art affect scientists according to the passage
A.It helps them have more creativities. B.It allows them to make friends with visitors.
C.It makes them experience the life of animals. D.It brings much trouble to them.
【答案】36.D 37.C 38.B 39.A
【详解】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了艺术与科学研究的关系以及在自然科学研究中所起的作用。

39.细节理解题。根据“In turn, art connects scientists to their own creativity and helps with their scientific process (过程) and the communication of their discoveries.”可知,艺术将科学家与他们自己的创造力联系起来,并帮助他们进行科学研究和交流他们的发现,所以艺术有助于科学有更多的创造力。故选A。

“The real journey of discovery is not in exploring(勘探)new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” I have forgotten where I read the words, 51 I didn’t catch its real meaning until a hot summer afternoon.
Several days 52 that afternoon, I happened to learn about a museum called McNay in a magazine. It used to be the home of a(n) 53 named Marian McNay. To share her works with more people, she had asked the community to turn it into a museum. I showed a(n) 54 in the story of the museum, so I couldn’t wait to invite Sally to the museum with me. Before starting our trip, she asked, “Do you have the 55 ” “Yes, of course. That is double one zero on New Braunfels Street.”
Although there were no signs outside on the building, we 56 found it. The museum was free. But just as we entered, the people in the hall 57 talking in a sudden and all watched at us.
“May I help you ” a well-dressed young lady asked politely. “Oh, thank you. We’re fine.”
Sally had gone upstairs. The people in the hall seemed 58 keeping their eyes on me all the time. “What was their problem ” I wondered.
While I lost myself in the beauty of those attractive works of art, the same 59 came into my ears, but this time it seemed a little bit unpleasant, “Where do you think you are ” “The MeNay Art Museum! What’s up ” “Sorry, young lady, the McNay Museum is not at No.101 but No.110” Seeing my confused(困惑的)looking, she continued, “Well, it’s my 60 No.101, New Braunfels Street.” I was shocked by what I heard. I embarrassedly(尴尬地)went to the stair and 61 out, “Sally! Come down, quickly!”
“There’re some really good works there.” She stepped down looking confused. I 62 her towards the front door, saying, “We are so sorry, but you have a really wonderful house.” “That’s OK. But didn’t you find out you had mistaken my bouse for the MeNay Museum you would have gone to ” “Oh, well, haven’t you realized how 63 your home is The fine paintings, artistic sculptures are all around, and even the elegant furniture seems like pieces works of art.”
The lady said 64 looking around her house quite carefully as if it had been the first time she visited the house which she had been living for over twenty years.
Finally, looking into my eyes, she said, “Thank you so much. Your visiting has made me realize that we should not care too much about what we haven’t got, but pay much 65 to what we have had.”

Sleep plays an important role in brain development. Children should get enough sleep. 66 A study says that because of being short of sleep, it is much harder for children to do something carefully. And also they become forgetful and easy to make mistakes. Another study shows that the right amount of night-time sleep is just as important for children’s development as healthy eating and taking exercise.
67 In general a younger child needs more sleep than an older one. Children at the age of 5~11 will need 10~12 hours of sleep a night while children at the age of more than 11 will need less hours.
In fact, many parents don’t know how to help their children get enough sleep. Here is something you can do. For children at the age of 5~11, a 30~40 minutes routine(常规)before sleep is helpful. 68 In the activities, children relax and enjoy themselves a lot, and they will go to sleep more easily.
Children at the age of more than 11 may go to bed late in the evening, talking with friends online, playing games or watching TV. 69 And even they will be tired during the day. So limit your children’s use of the Internet, games and the TV before they go to bed. 70
A.Why does a child need so much sleep
B.How many hours of sleep is enough for a child
C.So they will find it difficult to get up in the next morning.
D.It includes a bath, reading a story together and so on.
E.Taking exercise is as important as enough sleep for children.
F.And don’t allow them to have a computer or TV set in their bedroom.
G.Why do many teenagers have energy to play computer games until late at night

Know what you want to say and why. Understand clearly the purpose of your message. Know to whom you are communicating and why.
How will you say it We all know that it’s not always what you say, but how you say it, that matters. Begin by making eye contact. You show trust and confidence when you look at others in the eyes when you speak. Second, pay attention to your body language, since it can say so much more than your words. By standing with your arms easily at your side, you tell others that you are open to hearing what they have to say.
Communication is a two-way street. After you have said what you have to say, stop and listen. Practise your listening skills. Be considerate of others who are talking. Listen carefully and never cut them off.

82.根据“Without effective(有效的) communication, a message can become misunderstanding, or disaster.”可知如果没有有效的沟通,信息可能会变成误解或灾难。故填It can become misunderstanding, or disaster.
83.根据“pay attention to your body language, since it can say so much more than your words”可知注意你的肢体语言,因为它比你的言语更能表达。故填Body language.
84.根据“Know what you want to say and why”可知知道你想说什么以及为什么;根据“How will you say it”可知是知道如何说;根据“After you have said what you have to say, stop and listen”可知讲完话之后要停下来倾听。故共提到了三个步骤。故填Three.

90.She becomes shy and she is not the one she used to be, so she doesn’t get used to in public. (praise)

十三、完成句子(共10分)
91.查尔斯·狄更斯从小就有编故事的天赋。
Charles Dickens when he was very young.
【答案】had a gift for making up a story/had a gift for making up stories
【详解】中英对照后可知,英语部分缺少“有编故事的天赋”的翻译。have a gift for doing sth.有做某事的天赋,make up a story/stories编故事,根据“when he was very young” 可知,应用一般过去时。故填had a gift for making up a story/stories。
92.杭州因茶叶而闻名。
Hangzhou is its tea.

The film Zhou Xingchi funny jokes.
【答案】 directed by is full of/is filled with

94.对小孩子来说,在动物园近距离观察老虎是危险的。
It’s young children the tigers in the zoo.
【答案】 dangerous for to take a close look at
【详解】“对某人来说是危险的”为be dangerous for sb.;“近距离观察”为take a close look at。分析句子结构可知,句中it是形式主语,真正的主语应用动词不定式。故填dangerous for;to take a close look at。
95.除非人类停止为了它们的毛皮和骨头而猎杀它们,否则这种情况将会继续。
The situation unless humans them for their fur and bones.
【答案】 will continue stop hunting
【详解】continue“继续”,动词;stop doing sth“停止做某事”;hunt“猎杀”,动词。根据题干中“除非”可知,应是unless引导的条件状语从句,遵循主将从现。主句的谓语动词结构为“will continue”,从句中主语是名词复数humans,故其谓语动词应用动词原形“stop”。故填will continue;stop hunting。

【参考范文】
Dear Headmaster,
We have had a discussion about whether to play music during the break. All the students in our class gave their ideas.
Most of us agree that the music should be played. They think listening to music can make them feel happy. Besides, music helps them relax after hard work. What’s more, music can help them improve the study efficiency.
On the other hand, some students disagree. They doubt whether they can get expected results by listening to music, as the break is short. In addition, in class some students are still lost in music, which has a bad effect on students.
I think what we need is peace instead of the noise produced by the music. So I don’t like music. What’s your idea
Yours sincerely,
John

Art is a powerful tool for telling a scientific (科学的) story. Many scientific fields study the strangest of the animal kingdom, like animals with a lot of eyes and bodies so different from our own. Art can help us experience these hard-to-imagine parts of the natural world and light new scientific discoveries.
Alia Payne, an art professor, came to the National Museum of Natural History to work with the live jellyfish (水母) collections. She always got the same question from visitors. “How do jellyfish stings (蜇刺) work ” She had the scientific answer but found it difficult to explain without a clear sight. An idea went through her mind. She built a 3D model of one of the stinging cells that visitors could touch. “I have always loved art for education.” said Payne. “We learn more easily when we have something to play with.”
While art helps people experience science. It also helps scientists understand the natural world. Dr Osborn, a zoologist at the museum, studies the surprising sea animals of the ocean’s largest habitat (栖息地)—the midwater. Midwater sea animals have special features to survive in their habitat, and Osborn’s research helps us understand what these animals look like. “So I started learning photography,” Osborn explained. “It was really important because these animals don’t look so great when they are put in the glass box in the museum’s collections.”
Artistic creativity provides a chance to show off the bright colours, special body shapes and good adaptations (适应性) of these animals to the museum’s scientists, visitors and the world. In turn, art connects scientists to their own creativity and helps with their scientific process (过程) and the communication of their discoveries. By joining science with imagination and storytelling, art helps show the beauty of the sea animals—even those fit for horror movies—and connects people with their curiosity for the strangeness of the animal kingdom.

“The real journey of discovery is not in exploring(勘探)new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” I have forgotten where I read the words, 51 I didn’t catch its real meaning until a hot summer afternoon.
Several days 52 that afternoon, I happened to learn about a museum called McNay in a magazine. It used to be the home of a(n) 53 named Marian McNay. To share her works with more people, she had asked the community to turn it into a museum. I showed a(n) 54 in the story of the museum, so I couldn’t wait to invite Sally to the museum with me. Before starting our trip, she asked, “Do you have the 55 ” “Yes, of course. That is double one zero on New Braunfels Street.”
Although there were no signs outside on the building, we 56 found it. The museum was free. But just as we entered, the people in the hall 57 talking in a sudden and all watched at us.
“May I help you ” a well-dressed young lady asked politely. “Oh, thank you. We’re fine.”
Sally had gone upstairs. The people in the hall seemed 58 keeping their eyes on me all the time. “What was their problem ” I wondered.
While I lost myself in the beauty of those attractive works of art, the same 59 came into my ears, but this time it seemed a little bit unpleasant, “Where do you think you are ” “The MeNay Art Museum! What’s up ” “Sorry, young lady, the McNay Museum is not at No.101 but No.110” Seeing my confused(困惑的)looking, she continued, “Well, it’s my 60 No.101, New Braunfels Street.” I was shocked by what I heard. I embarrassedly(尴尬地)went to the stair and 61 out, “Sally! Come down, quickly!”
“There’re some really good works there.” She stepped down looking confused. I 62 her towards the front door, saying, “We are so sorry, but you have a really wonderful house.” “That’s OK. But didn’t you find out you had mistaken my bouse for the MeNay Museum you would have gone to ” “Oh, well, haven’t you realized how 63 your home is The fine paintings, artistic sculptures are all around, and even the elegant furniture seems like pieces works of art.”
The lady said 64 looking around her house quite carefully as if it had been the first time she visited the house which she had been living for over twenty years.
Finally, looking into my eyes, she said, “Thank you so much. Your visiting has made me realize that we should not care too much about what we haven’t got, but pay much 65 to what we have had.”

Sleep plays an important role in brain development. Children should get enough sleep. 66 A study says that because of being short of sleep, it is much harder for children to do something carefully. And also they become forgetful and easy to make mistakes. Another study shows that the right amount of night-time sleep is just as important for children’s development as healthy eating and taking exercise.
67 In general a younger child needs more sleep than an older one. Children at the age of 5~11 will need 10~12 hours of sleep a night while children at the age of more than 11 will need less hours.
In fact, many parents don’t know how to help their children get enough sleep. Here is something you can do. For children at the age of 5~11, a 30~40 minutes routine(常规)before sleep is helpful. 68 In the activities, children relax and enjoy themselves a lot, and they will go to sleep more easily.
Children at the age of more than 11 may go to bed late in the evening, talking with friends online, playing games or watching TV. 69 And even they will be tired during the day. So limit your children’s use of the Internet, games and the TV before they go to bed. 70
A.Why does a child need so much sleep
B.How many hours of sleep is enough for a child
C.So they will find it difficult to get up in the next morning.
D.It includes a bath, reading a story together and so on.
E.Taking exercise is as important as enough sleep for children.

You may think that you cannot live through summer without air conditioners. But in ancient China, hand fans were a 71 the only way for people to drive the heat away. Chinese people started to use hand fans over 2,000 years ago. The fans came in different s 72 , such as round and square. They were also made from all kinds of materials. Palm (棕榈树) leaf fans were c 73 and easy to make. Feather fans showed the o 74 high status (地位). Sandalwood (檀香) fans could send out a sweet smell. Later, hand fans became far more than just something that could cool you down. They developed into art w 75 , in which Tuanshan (round fans) and Zheshan (folded fans) were the most common.
In the shape of a full moon, Tuanshan were usually m 76 of silk. They had beautiful birds and flowers on them. Women, e 77 those in the imperial palace (皇宫), liked to use them. Poets in ancient China often compared a woman’s unlucky life to tuanshan. Nalan Xingde w 78 during the Qing Dynasty, “If only life were as beautiful as when we first met, why should the autumn wind bother to pity deserted fans ”
Meanwhile, men, especially the literati (文人), used Zheshan. The literati liked them b 79 Zheshan were usually made of paper and they could paint and write poems on them. It was a way for them to show off their ability in literature, painting and handwriting. Almost a 80 could be painted on Zheshan.
Today, Chinese people still use these fans, though not many people write or paint on them any more. Next time when you are waving a fan, you may think of the stories behind it.
