But what about birds 【小题2 fly by night? Tests with artificial（人造的）stars have proved that certain night flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.A dove（鸽子） had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a 【小题3 (nature) sky. Yet 【小题4 showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The birds cage 【小题5 (place) under an artificial star-filled sky. The bird tried to fly in the same direction 【小题6 (take) by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the make-believe stars caused 【小题7 change in the direction of his flight.Scientists think that doves, when 【小题8 (fly) in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation. What do they do 【小题9 the stars are hidden by clouds? 【小题10 (obvious), they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coastlines, and river courses. But when its too dark to see these, the doves circle helplessly, unable to get their position.【答案】【小题1】on【小题2】that/which【小题3】natural【小题4】it【小题5】was placed【小题6】taken【小题7】a【小题8】flying【小题9】when/if【小题10】Obviously【解析】试题分析：本文是一篇说明文。主要为我们解释了为什么鸟类在从一个地方飞到另一个地方的途中不会迷路。这是因为在白天的时候，它们可以凭借太阳辨别方向；而到了晚上，它们又可以通过星星识别方向。作者还以鸽子为例，更明确的向我们说明了它们主要以星为导向，但是万一星被云层挡住，它们还可以靠山脉，海岸线和河道辨别方向。不过当太黑而看不见时，它们也会无助的迷失方向在原地打转。【小题1】rely on考查固定动词短语搭配。实验表明，鸟类在白天的时候依赖太阳作为它们的导向。【小题2】that或者which考查定语从句及语境的理解。但是晚上鸟类又靠什么导向呢？that或which用修饰birds。主要考查考生对句子成分的分析。【小题3】natural考查词性的变换。一只鸽子一生都在鸟笼里度过，从没有在自然的天空下飞翔。后面是sky名词，所以前面要用nature的形容词形式natural修饰。【小题4】填it考查上下文理解。然而它有能借助星星导向的与生俱的能力。这里的it代指这一段最前面的a dove。【小题5】was placed考查被动语态及语境的理解。指鸟笼被放置在布满人造星的天空下。考查考生对文章上下文理解的能力。【小题6】taken考查省略句式。这只鸟试图与在笼子外面引导它的同伴飞向同一个方向。原句子应该是The bird tried to fly in the same direction that is taken by his outdoor cousins.这里的that is可以省略掉。【小题7】填a考查冠词用法及语境的理解。任何一个它们认定相信的导向星的位置的改变都可以引起它们飞行方向的改变。联系上下文可知此处缺少一个冠词，the表示特指所以不能用在此处，an要放在元音音素开头的名词前所以也不能用在此处，故只能填a。【小题8】flying考查状语从句及语境的理解。科学家认为，当鸽子在白天飞行时，它们靠太阳辨别方向。这里是一个由when引导的伴随状语，相当于原句是when they are flying in daylight，然后省略了they are。【小题9】when/if考查状语从句及语境的理解。译为“当星星被云层挡住的时候它们怎么导向呢？”when/if译为“当的时候”。【小题10】obviously考查词性的变换。很明显，它们还可以靠山脉，海岸线和河道辨别方向。副词放在逗号前用修饰逗号后面的整个句子，所以此处填obvious的副词形式obviously。【考点】考查说明文阅读I am a 21-year-old boy, and this is my story.One month after I graduated from high school in xx, I was ing home from swim practice and was involved in a car accident. I was so seriously injured that I was in a a（昏迷）for over two months at Prince Georges Hospital.I died eight times during my a and I couldnt talk or municate when I woke up. Walking was never going to happen again due to all the extreme injuries. Just like my body, my dreams were almost shattered. But I was not going to let my injuries prevent me from living my dreams.After 14 operations and blood transfusions, I had to learn how to talk, eat, walk, shower and live independently again. When I was out of hospital, I still had to go to outpatient therapy in Waldorf, Maryland. After spending a few months in a wheelchair, I took baby steps to walk on my own. It was a miracle that I could walk again, but I wanted to prove that I could not only walk, but run. When it came true, I wanted to get back in the pool again. After a few lung tests, I was able to go in the pool a little bit each week. After a few months of swim training, I began my freshman year at St. Marys College of Maryland and became a proud member of the swim team.By telling my story, I want to make a positive influence on the world. I am just trying to live each day to the fullest and inspire other people never to give up their dreams no matter how bad a situation is. I remember when I was still in my hospital bed, I would have my mom and dad push me around in my wheelchair to the other rooms to see the other patients and talk to them and their families. I wanted to let them know that everything was going to be okay. Somehow, things would work out for the best.3When the car accident happened, the author _.A. was a high school studentB. had finished his high school educationC. was a college studentD. was returning home from a swim petition4What does the underlined word “shattered” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. begun B. destroyedC. shared D. taken5It can be inferred that the author _ after he woke up from his a.A. was out of hospitalB. was in surpriseC. faced physical and mental challengesD. was worried about his lung6What does the author mainly want to show in the last paragraph?A.

Just like my body, my dreams were almost shattered.”联系上下文可知，作者此时很痛苦，像是身体和梦想都被“毁灭，摧毁”了一样，故选B。5C 推断题。从第三和第四段可知，“I couldnt talk or municate when I woke up”以及“After 14 operations and blood transfusions”作者醒后不仅要面对身体上的折磨接收各种药物和机械的治疗，而且还要面对心理上从一个健康的正常人变为连行走，都需要重新学习的不健全的人，这是面对生理和心理上的巨大挑战，故选C。6A 推断题。推断最后一段作者想表达的意思，很明显这一段的开头作者说到，“By telling my story, I want to make a positive influence on the world.”通过讲述我的故事，我希望能对世界有一个积极的影响，故选A。7考查记叙文阅读Whether you admit it or not, music improves our daily life and makes us feel easy, especially the music of Beethoven and Mozart. But can you believe that a school in England is using classical music to cut down students bad behavior?The head teacher Brian Walker at the West Park School in Derby asks some students to stay behind after school on Fridays. He forces his students to listen to Mozart and other classical music. He also makes them copy his favorite poems and they have to watch educational videos.Mr. Walker says his main aim is to stop noisy pupils causing trouble in class for students who want to study. He said the students staying behind were “not the smokers or drinkers, the truants (逃学生) or the people who are late for schoolIts those who have slowed the learning and teaching in class for everyone”. Mr. Walker said this was unacceptable, because it was making the rest of the students fail to focus their attention on their study.Mr. Walker believes what he does reminds students that education is something to value. “It helps them see they are part of something bigger that will improve their life chances,” he said. The head teacher thinks students in fact learn from being kept behind after school. “Hopefully, I open their ears to an experience they dont normally have and dont want to have again, so its both educational and acts as a warning.”Music has had success elsewhere in reducing bad behavior. In xx, it reduced crime on Londons subway by 25 percent. Researchers from a Belfast university found it helped stop elephants bad behavior.However, one West Park student called Kieran said, “An hour of Mr. Walkers music is a real killer.”8Mr. Walker asks his students to listen to music to _.A. make them rest after a days study B. punish them for their bad behaviorC. get them to love arts graduallyD. reduce their bad behavior9A student who _ may be left behind to listen to Mozart after class.A. plays truantB. smokes in classC. bothers others in classD. es late for class10Why does Mr. Walker say some students bad behavior is unacceptable?A.

Mr. Walker aims to tell students study is importantC. once music helped animals behave wellD. animals also like to listen to music【答案】8D9C10D11A12A【解析】试题分析：本文是一篇议论文。主要讲的是West Park School的校长Brian Walker通过给行为举止不好的学生放古典音乐以规范他们的行为。一方面，这一新鲜的方法确实对规范和约束行为有一定的好的作用和效果；另一方面，它也不可避免的遭到一些不满和批评。8D 细节题。此题答案要到第一段的最后一句去找，“But can you believe that a school in England is using classical music to cut down students bad behavior?”但是你会相信英国的一所学校用古典乐去减少学生的坏行为吗？故选D。9C 细节题。从文章第三段可知，“He said the students staying behind were not the smokers or drinkers, the truants (逃学生) or the people who are late for schoolIts those who have slowed the learning and teaching in class for everyone.”他说留下接受古典乐“治疗”的不是抽烟酗酒的学生，不是逃学生也不是迟到的学生，而是影响他人学习，拖班级后腿的学生，故选C。10D 细节题。从文章第三段最后一句话可知，“Mr. Walker said this was unacceptable, because it was making the rest of the students fail to focus their attention on their study.”Mr. Walker说道不被接受的原因是他们严重影响了其他学生的正常的，专心的学习，故选D。11A 推断题。 从文章第四段第一句话可知，“Mr. Walker believes what he does reminds students that education is something to value.” Mr. Walker相信他的这一举动提醒了学生要关注教育的价值，故选A。12A 推断题。“Music has had success elsewhere in reducing bad behavior.”和 “An hour of Mr. Walkers music is a real killer.”最后二段分别从一正一反表达了对古典乐治疗法的优劣批判，故选A。【考点】考查议论文阅读I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didnt understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students left. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized（强调）the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girls test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadnt talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.13The story took place exactly _.A. in the teachers office B. in an exam roomC. in the library D. in the language lab14The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because _.A. she had not brought a pen with herB. she had lost her own on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her penD. her own had been taken away by someone15The teacher saw all this, so she asked the boy _.A. to go on writing his paperB. to stop whisperingC. to leave the room immediatelyD. to stay behind after the exam16The thing(s) emphasized in the teachers talk was (were) _.A. honesty B. sense of dutyC. seriousness D. carefulness17The boy knew everything _.A. the moment he was asked to stay behindB. when the teacher started talking about honestyC. only some time laterD. when he was walking out of the room【答案】13B14C15D16A17C【解析】试题分析：本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲的是作者在一次考试中，旁边的女生找他借笔，他帮助了她并借给她一支笔，却被老师误认为作者考试作弊，所以将作者留下谈话，强调诚信。无论作者怎么解释都只是越描越黑，这让作者感到很沮丧。13B 推断题。从文章第一段“I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test.”我在八年级的时候，我们正在做一次期末考试。故选B。14C 细节题。从文章第一段倒数第二句，“She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write.”她告诉我她的笔没有墨水而不能写字了。故选C。15D 细节题。从文章第二段第一句，“Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students left”考试结束了，在所有试卷都已上交后，老师要我在大家离开后留在教室。故选D。16A 细节题。从文章第二段，“she talked about honesty and emphasized（强调）the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves.”老师说的都是关于诚实并且强调当人们做一些不诚实的事时，实际上他们是真正欺骗了自己。故选A。17C 推断题。从文章第二段最后一句和第三段第一句，“I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.”和“ Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test.”作者在走出教室时还在疑惑故排除D，而第三段第一句“之后，我才意识到老师认为我在考试中作弊了”。故选C。【考点】考查记叙文阅读We like people who look like us, because they tend to have personalities similar to our own. And, a new study suggests, the longer we are with someone, the more similarities in appearance grow.Researchers set out to study why couples often tend to look like one another. They asked 11 male and 11 female participants to judge the age, attractiveness and personality of 160 real-life married couples. Photographs of husbands and wives were viewed separately, so the participants didnt know who was married to whom.The test participants rated men and women who were actual couples as looking alike and having similar personalities. Also, the longer the couples had been together, the greater the similarities. The researchers guess that the sharing of experiences might affect how couples look.The idea that there is a connection between appearance and personality might seem strange at first, but there could be biological reasons for a link, said study member Tony Little from the University of Liverpool in England.“The face displays our emotions and over time, emotional expressions may bee written in the face,” Little told Live Science. For example, someone who smiles a lot may develop lines and muscles that are suggestive of someone who is happy.Other studies have shown that partners who are genetically similar to each other tend to have happier marriages.The new study indicates that people have different features when using facial appearance to make decisions about someones personality, and that the particular cues（暗示） focused on change from face to face. Vital to the decision, however, are eyes and smiles.“Smiles are important social cues that may tell us whether or not someone is friendly, and eyes are also a traditional focus of attention,” Little said.Overall face shape can be important too. For example, the bination of large chins and strong brow ridges（脊）can create an impression of disagreeableness and being unwilling to cooperate, Little said.18Why do we like those who look like us?A. Because they tend to like us.B. Because opposites usually attract each other.C. Because their personalities are similar to ours.D. Because we often marry those who look like us.19Why do some old lovers look alike according to the researchers?A. Because they live in the same place for a long time.B. Because their similar experiences might affect their appearance.C. Because they learn from each other in their daily life.D. Because theyre closely connected with each other biologically.20
