Ⅱ.阅读理解
(2016·河北邢台市高三调研)The ancient city of Chichen Itza in southern Mexico was one of the most powerful cities and one of the most powerful ancient cultures—the Maya.But today，no one lives there.It is only a group of old buildings.However，people from around the world still come to see it.People come to learn about its ancient culture，and the culture of the Mayan people.
The Mayan culture began almost 3,000 years ago and grew in parts of Central America.But about 1,000 years ago a group called the Itza invaded the city and built new parts of the city based on natural wells.They named the city Chichen Itza，which means “mouth of the well of the Itza”．
The most interesting structure in Chichen Itza is the Pyramid of Kukulcan (库库尔坎金字塔)，whose four sides all come together at one point at the top.Each side on the Pyramid of Kukulcan has 91 steps.And there is one more step at the top of the pyramid.The steps are as many as the days of a year.Some experts believe the Maya could have used this building to help them know when to plant crops.Each day the sun falls on a different step of the pyramid，which could be a way to follow the year.
The people of Chichen Itza especially designed one building to observe and study the movement of the stars and planets.Experts say that the observatory (天文台) is one of the most complex structures the Maya built.A set of steps went up and around the observatory tower.And there were windows in the tower.Each window had a purpose.Experts believe that a person looking through one of these windows could see particular stars on particular dates.The Maya might have believed that studying the stars could tell them the future.
Chichen Itza is now a UNESCO World Heritage site and an important part of the world’s history.

He took the document from his boss，turned on the machine，inserted the document and pressed the start button.
“That’s excellent，”said the boss，as the document vanished into the shredder.“I just need two 10.____________ (copy)．”
【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了Philip帮不会操作机器的老板把文件放入了碎纸机，而老板却说“给我复印两份”的幽默故事。
1．解析：形容词“good”修饰名词；根据不定冠词“a”可知，此处应使用单数名词。impress的名词形式为impression。make a good impression on sb.是固定短语，意为“给某人留下好印象”。
答案：impression
2．解析：句意：他经常在办公室里待到很晚，以此来显示他是多么的敬业和勤奋。“committed”和“hardworking”是形容词，所以用副词how修饰，表示程度。
答案：how
3．解析：固定句型be about to do sth.when...意为“正要做某事时突然……”。故填about。
答案：about
4．解析：动词see后通常接动词原形或现在分词作宾语补足语，此处表示正在发生的动作，所以用现在分词作宾语补足语。
答案：standing
5．解析：分析句子结构可知，形容词“Good”前省略了it is，所以用动词不定式作真正的主语。
答案：to see
6．解析：分析句子结构可知，此处用连词and连接两个并列的句子。
答案：and
7．解析：根据主句中的谓语动词可知，此处是指与现在事实相反的虚拟，所以if引导的条件状语从句中的谓语动词要用一般过去时。故填could。
答案：could
8．解析：应用副词修饰动词“appreciate”。real的副词形式为really。
答案：really
9．解析：根据语境可知，Philip很高兴被要求做这样简单的工作。分析句子结构可知，空格处用形容词happy作状语，表伴随。
答案：happy
10．解析：根据数词“two”可知，此处名词应使用复数形式。copy的复数形式为copies。
答案：copies
