BHe was an actor.CHe lived a hard life. DHe liked to travel all over the world.答案A解析细节理解题。莎士比亚是世界闻名的剧作家，最后一段提到他是怎么从学徒变成剧作家的。39“In time，as he became a familiar figure”“in time” means _.Aon time Bsometime Csome time later Dsome time答案C解析词义猜测题。从上下文推测，是过了一段时间以后人们才熟悉他的。40The best title is _.AThe Early Life of Shakespeare BShakespeares Life in LondonCShakespeares Role in Performance DShakespeares Later Life答案A解析主旨归纳题。综观全文，文章主要是讲莎翁成为剧作家前的一些情况，即他的早期生活。BHe was once referred to as the Picasso of poetry.Beloved by Chileans(智利人)of all classes，he is one of the most widely read and respected poets in history. And this year is the 100th birthday of Pablo Neruda(19401973)Born with the name Neftali Ricardo Reyes Basolto，he was a tall，shy and lonely boy.He loved to read and started to write poetry when he was ten.The American poet Walt Whitman，whose framed picture Neruda later kept on his table，became a major influence(影响)on his work.However，his father did not like the idea of having a poet for a son and tried to discourage him from writing.To cover up the publication of his first poem，he took the pen name Pablo Neruda.In 1924 Neruda gained fame with his most widely read work “Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair”Yet his rich experience as a diplomat(外交官)and exile(流亡)made him go beyond the theme of love.His work also reflected the political struggle of the left and development of South America.He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971.Neruda loved the sea which he saw as creative(创造性的)and forever moving.He found inspiration(灵感)in the power and freedom of the waves and the seabirds on the coast.“I need the sea because it teaches me”，he wrote，“I move in the university of the waves.”He loved how the sea forever renewed itself，a renewal echoed(回映)in his work.41The underlined word “Picasso” can probably be replaced by “_”Amost important person Bfamous person from PicassoCfreedom fighter in Picasso Dpoem fan答案A解析词义猜测题。根据下一句的意思“他被各个阶层的智利人所爱戴着，且备受尊重，他的作品广为传诵”可推出：他曾被誉为诗坛“巨匠”。42Neftali Ricardo Reyes Basolto took the pen name Pablo Neruda because_.Aliterary greats usually used the pen nameBhis father encourged him to use the nameChe wanted to prevent his father knowing the publicationDhe was greatly influenced by other poets答案C解析细节理解题。根据短文第三段中“To cover up the publication of his first poem.”一句可知，聂鲁达的父亲不赞成儿子当诗人，经常想方设法阻止他创作。为了掩饰自己发表的第一部诗集，他就为自己取了个笔名叫聂鲁达。43Which of the following is NOT the theme of his works?ALove. BPolitical struggle.CSocial reform. DThe development of South America.答案C解析细节理解题。第四段的第二、三两句表达的意思是：聂鲁达有着丰富的阅历，他当过外交官，曾流亡国外。因此，他的诗歌主题多样，并不仅仅局限于爱情。他的作品还反映了左派政治斗争以及南美洲的发展。由此可判断出答案为C项。44.The last paragraph mainly tells us _.Athe sea gave Neruda vast writing inspirationBthe beautiful scenery along the Chile coastCNerudas poems were widely read overseasDNeruda loved to write his poems near the sea答案A解析细节理解题。根据“He found inspiration in the power and freedom of the waves and the seabirds on the coast.”和“He loved how the sea forever renewed itself，a renewal echoed in his work.”两句可知海浪磅礴的力量、自由的激荡，海岸上展翅翱翔的海鸟，这一切都给聂鲁达无尽的创作灵感。他喜欢大海，还因为大海在永不停息地更新着自己，而他的诗作也如大海一样，不断地推陈出新。因此，应选A项。45Which is TRUE according to the text?AYoung people especially love and respect Neruda.BThe first collection of Nerudas poems was published when he was ten.CWalt Whitman was Nerudas most admired poet.DHe became famous when he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.答案C解析细节理解题。第二段中“The American poet Walt Whitman，whose framed picture Neruda later kept on his table，became a major influence on his work.”一句的意思是：美国诗人惠特曼对他的创作影响很大因此，惠特曼的画像被他摆在桌子上奉为上宾。由此可知C项正确。CChildren have their own rules in playing games.They seldom(很少)need a referee(裁判)and rarely trouble to keep scores.They dont care much about who wins or loses，and it doesnt seem to worry them if the game is not finished.Yet，they like games that depend a lot on luck，so that their personal abilities can not be directly compared.They also enjoy games that move in stages，in which each stage，the choosing of leaders，the pickingup of sides, or the determining of which side shall start，is almost a game in itself.Grownups can hardly find childrens games exciting，and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again.However，it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons.He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person，and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid.He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.He can be confident，too，in particular games，that it is his place to give orders，to pretend to be dead，to throw a ball actually at someone，or to kiss someone he has caught.It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control.Everyone knows the rules，and more importantly，everyone plays according to the rules.Those rules may be childish，but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.46What is TRUE about children when they play games?AThey can stop playing any time they like. BThey can test their personal abilities.CThey want to pick a better team. DThey dont need rules.答案A解析推理判断题。从文中第三句“They dont care much about who wins or loses，and it doesnt seem to worry them if the game is not finished.”可看出，应选A项。47To become a leader in a game the child has to _.Aplay well Bwait for his turnCbe confident in himself Dbe popular among his playmates答案B解析细节理解题。从文中第二段“He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.”可看出，应选B项。48What do we know about grownups?AThey are not interested in games.BThey find childrens games too easy.CThey dont need a reason to play games.DThey dont understand childrens games.答案B解析推理判断题。从文章第二段“they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again”可看出，应选B项。49Why does a child like playing games?ABecause he can be someone than himself.BBecause he can become popular among friends.CBecause he finds he is always lucky in games.DBecause he likes the place where he plays a game.答案A解析细节理解题。从文中“He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person，and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid.”可看出，应选A项。50The writer believes that _.Achildren should make better rules for their gamesBchildren should invite grownups to play with themCchildrens games can do them a lot of goodDchildren play games without reasons答案C解析文意猜测题。从这两句话“He can be confident.”和“Every child has a chance to win.”可看出，孩子们的游戏对他们有好处。DYou are watching a film in which two men are having a fight.They hit one another hard.At the start they only fight with their fists.But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs.And so it goes on until one of the men crashes through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below.He is dead!Of course he isnt really dead.With any luck he isnt even hurt.Why？Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains，who crash cars or even catch fire，are professionals.They do this for a living.These men are called stuntmen.That is to say，they perform tricks.There are two sides to their work.They actually do most of the things you see on the screen.For example，they fall from a high building.However，they do not fall on to hard ground but onto empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress(床垫)Again，when they hit one another with chairs，the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows，the glass is made of sugar!But although their work depends on trick of this sort，it also requires a high degree of skill and training.Often a stuntmans(特技表演者的) success depends on careful timing.For example，when he is “blown up” in a battle scene，he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work，but theylead dangerous lives.They often get seriously injured，and sometimes killed.A Norwegian stuntman，for example，skied over the edge of a cliff a thousand feet high.His parachute(降落伞) failed to open，and he was killed.In spite of all the risks，this is no longer a profession for men only.Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action.For nowadays there are stuntgirls too!51Stuntmen are those who _.Aoften dress up as actorsBprefer to lead dangerous livesCoften perform seemingly dangerous actionsDoften fight each other for their lives答案C解析细节理解题。由文章不难看出，stuntmen是替身演员，他们所从事的工作是有危险性的。倒数第二段很清楚地提到了这一点。52Stuntmen earn their living by _.Aplaying their dirty tricksBselling their special skillsCjumping out of high windowsDjumping from fastmoving trains答案B解析细节理解题。第四段告诉我们，替身演员也需要很多的技巧和训练，他们就是靠自己的技能赚钱，所以应选B项。53When a stuntman falls from a high building，_.Ahe needs little protectionBhe will be covered with a mattressChis life is endangeredDhis safety is generally all right答案D解析推理判断题。从第二段可以得出答案。54Which of the following is the main factor(因素) of a successful performance?AStrength. BExactness.CSpeed. DCarefulness.答案B解析细节理解题。从第四段中“Often a stuntmans success depends on careful timing.”一句可知，答案为B项。55What can be inferred from the authors example of the Norwegian stuntman?ASometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman.BThe percentage of serious accidents is high.CParachutes must be of good quality.DThe cliff is too high.答案A解析细节理解题。从那个挪威替身演员的遭遇中可以很容易地推断出这一点。第卷(共45分
