　　第二节 语法填空 (共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分)

　　【黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学2015届高三上学期期末】

　　阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

　　A 24-year-old Long Island man was charged early Thursday morning after crashing his car and killing his girlfriend while driving over the speed limit. Kevin Daly

　　21

　　(sentence) to nearly three years in prison after losing control of

　　22

　　partner Alice Hicks’ car on a country road

　　23

　　80mph. She was a passenger in the Mini-cooper and was thrown from the car

　　24

　　he crashed into another vehicle

　　25

　　(move) in the opposite direction. Daly, 24, denied causing

　　26

　　(die) by dangerous driving and was found guilty by a jury (陪审团) at Taunton Crown Court. The court heard that neither Daly

　　27

　　Miss Hicks, 22, was wearing seatbelts at the time of the collision that happened on November 17, 2011. NBC New York reports Kevin Daly, was driving on County Road 83, when the road was blocked by a truck that was waiting

　　28

　　(turn) right. Witnesses described

　　29

　　Day had little or no chance of stopping behind the still traffic and he turned to avoid the van

　　30

　　hit a Mazda on the other side of the road..

　　【答案】was sentencedhisatwhenmoving

　　deathnorto turnthatbut

　　考查sentence的用法。①用作名词时，意为“句子；宣判”；②用作动词时，意为“宣判；判决”。此题考查其作动词的用法，be sentenced to

　　被判处，且因为全文时态以过去时为主，故填was sentenced.

　　考查句子理解。从句子结构上判断，空白处应填入的成分为形容词来修饰partner. 根据句意，此题填入形容词性物主代词最符合逻辑，且主人翁为男性，故填his.

　　考查介词用法。mph=miles per hour

　　每小时英里数。可知前面应填修饰速度的介词。at常用来表示速度、价格、温度等，eg: The train runs at fifty kilometers an hour.句意：Daly在以80英里每小时的时速驾驶朋友Alice的车时，车子失控，他被判处近三年的刑期。故填at.

　　考查状语从句。句意：当他撞上对向驶来的汽车时，她被甩出了车子。此题要注意when和while的区别，两者均表示“当…时候”，when多强调某一时间点；而while则表示某一时间段，谓语动词要为延续性动词。此题“was thrown”和“crashed”均为瞬间动词，故此题应填入when.

　　考查现在分词作定语。相当于 “… he crashed into the vehicle which is moving in the opposite direction” 省略从句的主语和谓语，相当于现在分词作定语。故填moving.

　　考查die的用法。deny doing sth

　　拒绝、否认做某事

　　cause sth

　　导致；引起。故空白处应填入名词。要注意die的各种形式：原形die, 过去时和过去分词均为died, 现在分词dying, 形容词dead, 名词death. 故此题为death.

　　考查固定搭配。neither… nor…

　　既不…也不… ；两者都不

　　句意：Daly和Hicks在撞击发生时都没有系安全带。故填nor.

　　考查wait用法。wait to do sth.

　　等着做某事

　　句意：当道路被一辆等着右转的卡册堵住时…。故填to turn.

　　考查从句。填空处后面为完整句子，可知describe后接宾语从句，故填that引导宾语从句。

　　考点：考查句子理解、动词用法、固定搭配等语法知识。

　　II阅读 (共两节，满分30分)

　　第一节 阅读理解 (共1小题；每小题2分，满分20分)

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

　　A

　　Michael J. “Crocodile Dundee” (also called Mick), played by Paul Hogan, is the main character in the fictional Crocodile Dundee film series consisting of Crocodile Dundee, Crocodile Dundee II, and Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles. The character is a crocodile hunter, hence the nickname.

　　In the first film, Crocodile Dundee, Mick is visited by a New York reporter, Sue Charlton, who travels to Australia to investigate a report she heard of a crocodile hunter, who had his leg bitten off by a crocodile in the outback. The hunter supposedly walked more than a hundred miles back to civilization and miraculously survived his injuries. However, by the time she meets him, the story turns out to be a somewhat exaggerated legend where the “bitten-off leg” turns out to be just being some bad scarring on his leg; a “love bite” as Mick calls it. Still intrigued by the idea of “Crocodile Dundee”, Sue continues with the story. They travel together out to where the incident occurred, and follow his route through the bush to the nearest hospital. Despite his old-fashioned views, the pair eventually become close, especially after Mick saves Sue from a crocodile attack.

　　Feeling there is still more to the story, Sue invites Mick back to New York with her, as his first trip to a city (or “first trip anywhere,” as Dundee says). The rest of the film depicts Dundee as a “fish out of water,” showing how, despite his expert knowledge of living outdoors, he knows little of city life. Mick meets Sue’s boyfriend, Richard, but they do not get along. By the end of the film, Mick is on his way home, lovesick, when Sue realizes she loves Mick, too, and not Richard. She runs to the subway station to stop Mick from leaving and, by passing on messages through the packed-to-the-gills crowd, she tells him she won’t marry Richard, and she loves him instead. With the help of the other people in the subway, Mick and Sue have a loving reunion as the film ends.

　　31.Which of the following statements is true about Mick?

　　A. He is a crocodile hunter living in Los Angeles.

　　B. He is based on a real person in Australia.

　　C. He got his nickname because of his job.

　　D. He wrote a film series about himself.

　　32. In the film Crocodile Dundee, Mick ________.

　　A. pretends he was bitten by a crocodile

　　B. urges Sue Charlton to write his life story

　　C. hasn’t been abroad before his trip to America

　　D. shows Sue Charlton around the town he lives in

　　33.The underlined word “intrigued” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.

　　A. annoyed

　　B. interested

　　C. troubled

　　D. surprised

　　34.When in New York, Mick ________.

　　A. makes friends with Richard

　　B. makes full use of his bush skills

　　C. feels excited about living in a big city

　　D. doesn’t know how to fit into city life

　　35.The film Crocodile Dundee can be best described as ________.

　　A. a romantic story

　　B. an action movie

　　C. a science fiction

　　D. a frightening story

　　【答案】CCBDA

　　C细节理解题。根据第三段的第一句Feeling there is still more to the story, Sue invites Mick back to New York with her, as his first trip to a city (or “first trip anywhere,” as Dundee says).可知可知是他第一次出国。故C正确。

　　B词义推测。根据前句中的a “love bite” as Mick calls it.有所提示，故可以推测到intrigued是感兴趣之意。故B正确。

　　D推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中he knows little of city life可知邓迪不适应城市生活。故D正确。

　　Silk production has a long and colourful history unknown to most people. Scientific discoveries have shown that silk production existed in China from around 2500 B.C., although it could be much older. For hundreds of years, China kept the secret of silk to itself as one for the most closely protected secrets in history. Anyone revealing the secret of silkworms or trying to take silkworm eggs out of ancient China was punished by death.

　　At one time silk was reserved only for the Chinese emperor. Gradually, others began wearing silk. In addition to being used for clothing, silk came to have industrial uses in ancient China, something that happened in the West only in modern times. Silk was used to make musical instruments, fishing lines, weapons, ropes and even paper. During the Han Dynasty silk became a form of money. Farmers paid taxes in both rice and silk. The prices of goods were calculated in lengths of silk just as they had once been calculated in gold. The importance of silk is even reflected in the Chinese language. For example, of the 5000 most common Chinese characters, around 500 have silk as their “key”.

　　In spite of their secrecy, the Chinese eventually lost their monopoly on silk production. It reached Korea in around 200 B.C. when immigrants from China arrived there. Silk production came to India in 300 A.D.. It was not until 500 A.D. that silk production came to Europe when travellers smuggled out silkworms in hollow tubes of bamboo. These were used to establish silk industry in Rome (modern-day Italy), although Chinese silk was still considered to be the best.

　　Silk was brought to Rome from China by means of the Silk Road. There were actually two Silk Roads, one over land and one on the sea. The land route in particular had a huge effect in history. All sorts of trade goods — silver, gold, jade, porcelain — passed along this road. Ideas travelled the Silk Road too. For example the religion of Buddhism was carried to China from India by traders on the Silk Road. The Silk Road created the first international culture, exposing many people to the ideas and treasures of both Western and Chinese cultures.

　　36.How was China able to keep the secret of silk production?

　　A. It refused to sell its silk to other countries.

　　B. Foreigners were not permitted to enter China.

　　C. The silkworms needed were not able to survive outside China.

　　D. Chinese passing on the secret to foreigners were seriously punished.

　　37.Which of the following uses of silk is NOT mentioned in the passage?

　　A. A way of purchasing goods people sold.

　　B. A material used for making different products.

　　C. A method of paying money to the government.

　　D. A valuable gift given to foreigners travelling in China.

　　38.In what order did silk production spread throughout the world according to the passage?

　　A. Europe à India à Korea à China.

　　B. China à Korea à India à Europe.

　　C. China à India à Korea à Europe.

　　D. China à Europe à India à Korea.

　　39.The underlined phrase “smuggled out” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.

　　A. quietly traded

　　B. openly removed

　　C. illegally transported

　　D. violently stole

　　40.Which of the following is true about the Silk Road?

　　A. It allowed for economic and cultural exchanges between countries.

　　B. It made China the most powerful country in the ancient world.

　　C. It could only be completed by travellers with access to a boat.

　　D. It was first developed for transferring religious ideas.

　　Since 1990,we have been helping employees and managers write better.

　　Everything written in business reflects the image of the company and the writer.

　　42

　　This means organizing ideas well, checking that the language is accurate and that the presentation is professional. Writing successfully is always the result of careful planning.

　　Before you start writing, you need to decide why you are writing and what you hope to achieve. This will help you decide what to include in your writing and whether to write an e-mail, a letter or perhaps a report.

　　Meanwhile, think about readers.

　　The structure of what you write can guide readers and help them understand the content of your writing so that they can respond.

　　While you are writing, you need to think about how you organize your ideas. Writing a report may involve presenting data and linking complex ideas; writing a memo (备忘录) may involve describing a situation and dealing with ways of improving it. You need to understand how to construct paragraphs.

　　44

　　After you have finished writing comes the very important process of revising, checking and correcting.
