I spent three busy days in the capital of Italy, seeing lots of tourist attractions and walking down streets lit by Christmas decorations. There were a lot of things I love about the city.Rome is one of the most ancient cities in the world and is full of wonderful relics (遗迹)from its distant past. These monuments include the Roman Forum and the vast Coliseum where gladiators used to fight each other until death and hunt animals coming from another country. The ruins of buildings and temples are fascinating.You can't quite believe how old they are.I studied the masterpieces of the Renaissance period at university and was very excited to see them in real life. I walked around the museum in Vatican City and saw plenty of famous sculptures(雕塑). The best part of the visit was, without doubt, the Sistine Chapel Ceiling, painted in the early 16th century by Michelangelo. It was so breathtaking that I couldn't tear my eyes away from it.In Rome, there is a lot of food on offer for tourists but some of it isn't of very good quality. I made an effort to find reliable restaurants to taste the popular meals of the region, like pasta with tomato，onion and bacon. I also loved eating ice cream and hot chocolate under the Christmas lights.Rome has not only lots of luxury boutiques (精品店) but also plenty of shops that were more in my price range! It was a perfect opportunity to go and buy presents for my family and friends. There was also a Christmas market, where I bought a sparkly decoration for the tree.语篇解读本文为一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己游玩意大利首都罗马的经历和感受。4The underlined word “gladiators” in the 2nd paragraph probably means “ ”Aathletes BbutchersCinvadersDfighters解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“used to fight each other until death and hunt animals coming from another country”可知该词的意思为“斗士”，故答案为D项。答案：D5The author found the ruins of buildings and temples fascinating because .Athey represent Rome's religionBthey are relics from Rome's distant pastCyou can't help wondering how old they areDthey include the Roman Forum and the vast Coliseum解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“full of wonderful relics from its distant past”和“The ruins of buildings and temples are fascinating.”可知答案为B项。答案：B6What is mainly discussed in the 3rd paragraph?AThe great museums of Italy.BThe sculptures in Rome.CArtrelated activities during the visit.DThe achievements of the Renaissance period in Italy.解析：段落大意题。本段主要介绍的是作者此次游玩罗马的过程中的有关艺术的活动，故答案为C项。答案：C7When visiting Rome, you should be careful in choosing .Athe attractionsBthe foodCthe hotelsDthe luxury boutiques解析：推理判断题。根据第四段前两句中的“In Rome，there is a lot of food on offer for tourists but some of it isn't of very good quality.I made an effort to find reliable restaurants to taste the popular meals of the region.”可知作者暗示选择食物时要特别小心，故答案为B项。答案：B.阅读七选五Which is much more significant to you when you are finding a job? Working experience or an advanced degree？Well, I believe diverse people have different answers.1 Here are some reasons：Above all, most of jobs don't require such a high degree，which means just some work, such as theoretical physics，archaeology, or literature, needs high academic qualification.2 For example, when you are offering a department manager post, and there is a man who has already been a manager for three years but only has a master's degree and an inexperienced person with a doctor's degree, which one would you choose? Definitely the first one for the manager who doesn't acquire a doctor's degree but has rich working experience.3 For instance, Bill Gates, who was the richest man in the world and one of the most successful merchants. What a wise choice when he decided to abandon studying so that he could gain more working experience instead of a doctor's degree！Or Steve Paul Jobs, who discontinued his study at the age of nineteen in order to become a member of a computer company just like Bill Gates.45 Maybe you shouldn't have to gain an advanced or high degree, but that doesn't mean nothing. Probably a bachelor's degree is still necessary in this fiercely competitive society.All in all, I think rich working experience is much more important than an advanced degree.AHowever, a degree is still required for most people.BMeanwhile，rich working experience will draw more attention.CSecondly，plenty of experience will bring you success much earlier.DIn my view, either working experience or an advanced degree counts.EAs for me, I will say working experience without hesitation.FAs a matter of fact, more people with rich working experience become successful.GFrom all of these, we can see that an advanced degree isn't so necessary as working experience.语篇解读本文是一篇议论文，论述了工作经验是工作成功的最重要的因素这一论点。1解析：根据空处位置可知，空处承上启下，根据该段第二句“Working experience or an advanced degree”可知，空处提出自己的观点并引出下文，故E项与此处匹配。答案：E2解析：根据本段最后一句“Definitely the first one for the manager who doesn't acquire a doctor's degree but has rich working experience.”并结合空后所列举的例子可知，该例旨在证明丰富的工作经验在应聘时更受欢迎，故B项与此处匹配。答案：B3解析：根据空处所在的位置可知，空处为本段的主题句；根据本段列举的比尔·盖茨放弃学业创业成功和乔布斯在十九岁时辍学这两个例子可以判断，本段旨在说明丰富的工作经验能促使人早日成功，故C项正确。答案：C4解析：根据该空所在的位置可知，该空总结本段大意；由空前列举的比尔·盖茨和乔布斯这两个例子可以判断，高学历不如工作经验重要，故G项正确。答案：G5解析：根据空处所在的位置可知，空处为本段的主题句；由本段最后一句“Probably a bachelor's degree is still necessary in this fiercely competitive society.”可知，在这个竞争激烈的社会中，学历仍然是有必要的。据此可以判断，本段主要陈述学历对于大部分人来说还是需要的，故A项正确。答案：A.语法填空In 1.
