He constantly gets into awkward and absurd situations, which greatly amuses audiences regardless of their nationalities or culture. The humor is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely purely on body language, which is universal.One of the remarkable shows is that Mr.Bean has a meal in a fancy restaurant. After being seated at his table, Mr.Bean takes out a card, writes a few words on it, seals(密封) it in an envelope and places it on the table. After a moment, he looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprised, as if he did not know it was there. He opens it to find a birthday card and delightedly puts it on the table for everyone to see.When he looks at the menu, an astonished look swiftly appears on his face. He takes all the money out of his wallet, counts it and puts it in a saucer(茶托)He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile. Then he orders a dish called steak tartare. When the dish arrives, he is shocked to discover that steak tartare is actually raw hamburger. He makes an attempt to eat it, but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting. He cannot hide his feelings, except when the waiter asks if everything is all right. When this happens, he smiles and nods, indicating that everything is fine. When the waiter is not looking, however, he busies himself hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach-the sugar bowl, the tiny flower vase, inside a bun(小圆面包) and under a plate. He bees so desperate in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurants violinist!24. Why did Mr.Bean pretend to smile in front of the waiter?A. He didnt want the waiter to know his embarrassment.B. He was in low spirits.C. He likes to express himself in the opposite way.D. He thought the waiter enjoyed smiling.25. What does the underlined word disgusting in the third paragraph mean?A. Tasting delicious B. Smelling good C. Feeling sick D. Looking fine26. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A. Mr. Bean-A Top Humour ActorB. Raw Hamburger Tastes DisgustingC. Being Mannered in a RestaurantD. How to Pretend to Like Something Boring【答案】24. A 25. C 26. A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇人物传记类短文，介绍了世界闻名的幽默影视巨星：憨豆先生。文章中主要描述他在餐厅用餐的有趣一幕。【24题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段第六句He makes an attempt to eat it, but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting.可知，实际上他认为这些食物令人失望。但在服务员目前他仍然保持微笑，是为了隐藏自己的情绪，不让服务员看到他的尴尬。故A项正确。【25题详解】猜测词义题。根据第三段第六句He makes an attempt to eat it, but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting.可知，他点的食物的味道让他失望。本句的关键词是连词but，表示实际情况与最初预料的情况相反。划线词意为C项“feeling sick”。【26题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章主题句Mr.Bean is an internationally recognized edy character on TV and in films. He constantly gets into awkward and absurd situations, which greatly amuses audiences regardless of their nationalities or culture可知，本文介绍了世界闻名的幽默影视巨星：憨豆先生。文章中主要描述他在餐厅用餐的有趣一幕。故A项正确。【点睛】本文考查了猜测词义题。在高考阅读题中，考生遇到的最大障碍往往有两个：一是被已认识的单词的某一熟知含义所误导；二是被完全不认识的单词的意思所阻碍，从而出现理解偏差或理解困难，影响阅读的速度。其实解决这两个困难的一个重要法宝是考生在心目中树立起上下文观念，要学会“顺藤摸瓜”，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。a. 定义法It will be very hard but also very brittle.that is, it will break easily.从后面的解释中我们可以了解到brittle 是“脆”的意思。b. 同位法They traveled a long way, at last got to a castle, a large building in old times.同位语部分a large building in old times 给出了 castle 的确切词义，即“城堡”。 c. 对比法She is usually prompt for all her class, but today she arrived in the middle of her first class. but一词表转折，因此but 前后的意思正相反。后半句的意思是她今天“第一节上了一半才来”，因此反向推理，可得出她平时一向“准时”的结论。 d. 构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等) Perhaps, we can see some possibilities for next fifty years. possibility 是 possible 的同根名词， 据此可以断定 possibility 意思是“可能性”。e. 因果法 The lack of movement caused the muscles to weaken. Sometimes the weakness was permanent. So the player could never play the sport again. 从后面的结果“永远不能再运动”中，可以推测 permanent 的意思为“永远的，永久的”。CImagine, one day, getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner there.Sounds unusual, doesnt it? But its not that unrealistic, with the development of Chinas high-speed railway system. And thats not all. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe. China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore.China has proposed three such projects. The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe. The new system would still follow Chinas high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes. Of course, there are some technical challenges to overe. There are so many issues that need to be settled, such as safety, rail gauge(轨距), maintenance of railway tracks. But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion.China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment. Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development. Itll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better munication among those countries.For China, such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources, but would also help develop Chinas far west. We foresee that in the ing decades, millions of people will migrate to the western regions, where the land is empty and resources unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all. And theyll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries.27. According to the passage, the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railway plan is _.A. technical issues B. safety of the systemC. financial problems D. maintenance of railway tracks28. Chinas new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because _.A. China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regionsB. China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various waysC. China will develop its railway system and munication with other countriesD. the foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation, business and tourism29. Which of the following words best describes the authors attitude towards Chinas high-speed railway plan?A. Critical. B. Reserved. C. Doubtful. D. Positive.30. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. New Railway Standards B. Big Railway DreamsC. High-speed Bullet Trains D. International Railway Network【答案】27. C 28. B 29. D 30. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了中国的高铁发展计划，主要包括三条主要的对外发展的高铁线路以及这些高铁计划对世界的影响。【27题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion.可知，中国高铁计划最大的挑战是钱，也就是经济方面的问题。故C项正确。【28题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段后两句Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development. Itll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better munication among those countries.可知，高铁计划对参与的国家来说是双赢的局面，中国获得国家发展需要的资源，其他国家连用高铁计划创造出更多的就业机会，发展旅游业等等。也就是所有参与这一项目的国家都会从中受益。故B项正确。【29题详解】推理判断题。作者在文章中提出高铁计划对于参加的所有国家来说都是有益的，尤其对于中国可以开发广袤的西部地区，说明作者对高铁计划的前景是很乐观的。故D项正确。【30题详解】主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了中国的高铁发展计划，主要包括三条主要的对外发展的高铁线路以及这些高铁计划对世界的影响。故B项正确。【点睛】本文考查了主旨大意题。考查题型要求找出文章适合的标题。标题位于文章之首，用来高度概括文章内容，点明文章主题。它可以是单词，短语，也可以是句子。要确定文章标题，首先，要在阅读原文的基础上，考虑标题是否与主题密切相关；其次，看标题是否能概括全文内容。不能只概括短文中的某些事实或细节；然后，要注意标题范围不应太大或太小；最后，标题应简练并能吸引读者。即:1、独特新颖 2、概括性强 3、短小精炼。本文主要介绍了中国的高铁发展计划，主要包括三条主要的对外发展的高铁线路以及这些高铁计划对世界的影响，A. New Railway Standards（新铁路标准）、C. High-speed Bullet Trains（高速子弹头列车）；D. International Railway Network（国际铁路网）都只是文中的一个细节，只有B项Big Railway Dreams（大铁路梦想）概括了全文，并点名文章的主旨。第二节（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余项。Homework is a major part of going to school: Its your teachers way of evaluating(评价) how much you understand of whats going on in class._31_ Luckily, you can do a few things to make homework less work.Be sure you understand the homework.Write your homework down in your notebook or day planner if you need to._32_Its much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!Use any extra time in school.Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study.

Most high school students have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If its a heavy homework day and youve got an assignment in every subject, youll need to devote more time to homework.

A【解析】本文是一篇策略类短文，作者在文章里给出了减少回家做作业的量的四条建议。【31题详解】本段第一句告诉我们作业是我们上学的主要内容。横线前句Its your teachers way of evaluating(评价) how much you understand of whats going on in class介绍作业对老师的意义所在，本句应该是说明作业对学生的巨大作用。故C项And it helps digest important concepts（作业可以帮助消化重要概念）符合语境。【32题详解】横线后句Its much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!告诉我们向老师提问可以提高我们的学习效率，也就是强调要多问。故E项Dont be afraid to ask questions about whats unknown.（不要害怕问自己不懂的问题）符合语境。【33题详解】本段的建议“Use any extra time in school”（把在学校的额外时间充分利用好）。也就是说学校里的时间用好了，作业做的多了，回家以后需要做的作业就少了很多。故G项“But the more work you can get done in school, the less youll have to do that night.”符合语境。【34题详解】横线后句So take some breaks while doing your homework.建议我们在做作业的时候要适当休息。如果总在做作业，效率会比较低，因为我们的注意力持续时间不会太长。故D项Most peoples attention spans (跨度) arent very long符合语境。【35题详解】本段第一句“If you dont finish your homework during school, think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then budget your time.”提到如果在校无法完成作业，要思考回家以后如何安排好作业的时间，也就是说我们要做好做作业的计划。故A项“Make a homework schedule”符合语境。第三部分英语知识运用（共两节,满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分,满分30分）There was a man who played the piano in a small bar.
