Ⅲ.阅读理解
The Parthenon in Athens is a building with a long and complex history.Built nearly 2,500 years ago as a temple celebrating the Greek goddess Athena, it was for thousands of years the church of the Virgin Mary of the Athenians, then a mosque (清真寺), and finally a ruin.The building was changed and the sculptures were much damaged over the centuries.By 1800 only about half of the original sculptural decoration remained.
Between 1801 and 1805, Lord Elgin, the British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire, which controlled Athens, acting with the full knowledge and permission of the Ottoman authorities, removed about half of the remaining sculptures from the fallen ruins and from the building itself.Lord Elgin loved Greek history and transported the sculptures back to Britain.The arrival of the sculptures in London had a huge effect on the European public, greatly increasing interest in ancient Greek culture and influencing contemporary artistic trends.These sculptures were acquired from Lord Elgin by the British Museum in 1816 and since then they have all been on display to the public, free of charge.
Since the early 1980s, however, the Greek government has argued for the permanent removal to Athens of all the Parthenon sculptures in the British Museum.They have also challenged the British Museum Board of Trustees' legal title to the sculptures.
The British Museum, however, insists that it exists to tell the story of cultural achievement throughout the world, from the dawn of human history over two million years ago until the present day.The museum considers itself an important resource for the world: the breadth and depth of its collection allows the world public to reexamine cultural identities and explore the complex network of interconnected world cultures.
It also says that, within the context of this unparalleled collection, the Parthenon sculptures are an important representation of ancient Athenian civilization.Each year millions of visitors admire the artistry of the sculptures and gain insights on how ancient Greece influenced—and was influenced by the other civilizations that it encountered(遭遇).
31.For most of its history people went to the Parthenon to________.
A.admire the goddess Athena
B.pray to their god
C.search for sculptures
D.learn about its complex history
32.The underlined “it” (in Paragraph 4) refers to “________”.
A.the British Museum
B.the Greek government
C.the Parthenon
D.the British Museum Board of Trustees
33.What can we learn about Lord Elgin from the passage?
A.He is greatly admired in Greece.
B.He worked for the Ottoman Empire.
C.He saved the Parthenon sculptures from being destroyed.
D.He had a deep interest in Greek culture.
34.The author's main intention in writing this passage is to tell________.
A.the history of the Parthenon and its sculptures
B.what people can see in the British Museum
C.why the British Museum refuses to return the sculptures
D.the influence of Greece on British culture

10.A 考查名词词义辨析。句意:他能通过考试,我绝不怀疑,但是我仍在想他是否已经把一切都准备好了。have no doubt“毫无疑问”,根据句意选A。
Ⅱ.一个人想发财,突发了要栽植一棵芒果树的想法。想不到结出的不是芒果,这个人很是失望。原来他栽的不是棵芒果树。
11.C 考查语境化选词。city “城市”;farm “农场”;market “市场”;shop “商店”。由后面的bought a small tree可知,购买树苗,应该是在“市场”。
12.C 考查动词。grow “种植”;move “移动”;plant “栽种”;throw “扔,丢掉”。买芒果树苗回来后,将其“栽”在花园里。故选C项。
13.A 考查名词。garden “花园”;house “房子”;village “村庄”;yard “院子”。B、C两项可轻易排除。D项易错选,但根据第四段最后一句“it decorated his whole garden”可知选A项。
14.D 考查动词。buy“购买”;improve“改进,提高”;keep“保持;饲养(动物)”;raise “养殖,种植;增加”。此处raise a mango tree指维护、管理芒果树。故选D项。
15.D 考查动词。decorate “装饰”;equip “装备,武装”;serve “服务,供应”;supply “提供”。此处是为果树施肥,应使用supply A with B,故选D项。
16.D 考查形容词。果树管理,需要剪去老叶子——枯萎的叶子。枯萎的叶子会变黄,而green leaves属于好叶子。red leaves只是有些树有,一般是秋天才有,也是即将死去的叶子,但秋天不需要剪枝。white leaves很少见,显然A、B、C三项可排除。故选D项。
17.A 考查动词。admire “欣赏;赞美”;draw “画画”;greet “打招呼,欢迎”;operate “操作,管理”。根据接下来的“…dreaming about…His mind was always filled with the wish to taste the first fruit of the tree.”可知,那个人是经常坐在树下“赞赏”树长得漂亮,并展望着早日品尝其结的芒果,故选A项。
18.D 考查形容词。beneficial“有益的”;expensive “昂贵的”;healthy “健康的”;tasty “可口的,美味的”。根据句意,这个人是展望早日品尝果树结的“可口的”芒果,故选D项。
19.A 考查动词。bear“生育,结果实”;burst “爆裂,突发”;deserve “值得”;make “制造”。此处是指果树“结果实”,使用bear,故选A项。
20.B 考查副词。immediately “立即,马上”;quickly “迅速地,快”;narrowly “勉强地,狭窄地”;suddenly “突然”。根据接下来的“now,he had a big tree”可知,这一天到来了,说明时间过得很快,故选B项。
21.A 考查连词。because表示原因;if表示条件;though表示让步;when表示时间。此处前后为因果关系,it decorated his whole garden是原因,It was a big attraction为结果,故选A项。
22.A 考查名词。flower“花朵”;fruit “水果”;leaf “叶子”;nut “果仁”。根据常识可知,先是长出花蕾(a small bud),然后花蕾长成flower,花粉受精后才会结出果实,故选A项。
23.B 考查副词。always “总是,始终”;hardly “几乎不”;never“从不”;strangely “奇怪地”。can't/hardly wait for意为“等待不及”,这个人等不及要品尝芒果树结出的果实,故选B项。
24.B 考查形容词。greedy “贪婪的”;happy “快乐的”;nervous “紧张的”;sad “悲伤的”。果树总算结出了第一批果实,这个人显然非常“喜悦”,故选B项。
25.C 考查名词。age“年龄”;length “长度”;size “尺寸,大小”;width “宽度”。这个人又等了几周,以便让树上的果实“长大点”,果子不像他所期盼的那样,故选C项。
26.D 考查动词。observe “观察,观看”;sell“卖”;steal“偷”;taste “品尝”。这个人一直期待的是“品尝”自己栽的果树上结出的果实,故选D项。
27.A 考查动词。climb “爬上”;cut “砍伐”;hide “躲,收藏”;kill“杀死”。这个人感觉树上的果实应该成熟了,决定“爬到树上”去摘下来吃,故选A项。
28.C 考查名词。anxiety “焦虑”;cheers “欢呼声”;disappointment “失望”;opinion “观点,看法”。根据接下来“The fruit was not like what he expected. It was hard,big and round. He was puzzled. He was sad.”可知,这个人摘下树上的果实品尝后,很是“失望”,果子不像他所期盼的那样,故选C项。
29.C 考查名词。根据最后一段中的“When the neighbours heard this”可知选C项neighbours “邻居”。children “孩子”;friends “朋友”;relatives “亲戚”。
30.B 考查动词。complain “抱怨”;laugh “笑”;motivate “激励”;support “支持”。邻居们听完这个人的诉苦后,不知道是该“笑”他还是安慰他,因为他几年前栽的树不是芒果树。故选B项。
Ⅲ.希腊政府想要回被英国搬到大英博物馆里的珍贵文物,遭到了英国政府的拒绝。
31.B
32.A 代词指代题。很显然这里指的是主句的主语The British Museum。句意为:大不列颠博物馆坚持认为自己的存在是为了讲述从人类起源到现在的全世界的文化成就。
33.D 推理判断题。由第二段对他的描述:acting with the full knowledge…loved Greek history等,可以推出,埃尔金勋爵对希腊文化有着浓厚的兴趣。
34.C 推理判断题。文章首先简介了帕特农神殿的历史,然后介绍了里面的文物如何大量流入了英国大不列颠博物馆。接下来用大量的篇幅向我们介绍了英国政府拒绝希腊政府对于永久归还属于自己的东西这一要求的理由。
