D.Adiary.【答案】21.D22.A23.C24.B【解析】本文是一篇新闻稿件应用文，主要写了学生参与“儿童摩天大楼电子游戏"这个项目以及该项目的由来。【21题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句Instead,theywerepreparedtoplaygamesthatwouldbedisplayedonaglassskyscrapercalledtheCiraCenter.可知，该游戏的显示屏在摩天大楼上，这才是其与众不同之处。故选D项。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段第1句"Therewasareallygreatenergyinthetentthatnight"中的greatenergy意为“巨大能量”或“热情高涨”，说明参与者都很感兴趣。故选A项。【23题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第五段第1，2句“Yearsago,IwasdrivingpasttheCiraCentre,”Leesaid.“Ithought,‘Wouldn’titbecooltomakeagameoutofthatbuilding?’”HenoticedtherewereLEDlightsfixedbetweentheskyscraper’sfloors.可知，当Lee注意到安装在摩天大厦楼层中间的LED灯时，突然想到"Wouldn'titbecooltomakeagameoutofthatbuilding?”，因此是LED灯激发了他的游戏灵感。故选C项。【24题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一段的叙述方式，交代了时间，地点，人物和事件，以及文本中的引语“Therewasreallyagreatenergyinthetentthatnight,”AinsleySoulchin,13,said.SheparticipatedinSkyscraperVideoGamesforKids；“Yearsago,IwasdrivingpasttheCiraCentre,”Leesaid.“Ithought,‘Wouldn’titbecooltomakeagameoutofthatbuilding?’”明显是被采访者的话语,据此可推测出文本来自报纸、网站等时效性强的媒体。故选B项。BI.M.Pei,theChineseAmerican,whowasregardedasoneofthelastgreatmodernistarchitects,hasdiedattheageof102.AlthoughheworkedmostlyintheUnitedStates,PeiwillalwaysberememberedforaEuropeanproject:HisredevelopmentoftheLouvreMuseuminParisinthe1980s.Hegaveustheglassandmetalpyramidinthemaincourtyard,alongwiththreesmallerpyramidsandavastsubterranean(地下的)additiontothemuseumentrance.PeiwasthefirstforeignarchitecttoworkontheLouvreinitslonghistory,andinitiallyhisdesignswerefiercelyopposed.Butintheend,theFrench—andeveryoneelse—werewonover.WinningthefifthPritzkerArchitecturePrizein1983,hewasthoughtasgivingthe20thcentury“someofitsmostbeautifulinsidespacesandoutsideforms.Histalentandskillintheuseofmaterialsapproachthelevelofpoetry.”AfterstudyingarchitectureattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyandHarvard,PeisetuphisownarchitecturalpracticeinNewYorkin1955.DesigningtheJohnF.KennedyPresidentialLibrary&Museumin1964establishedhimasaname.HisEastBuildingoftheNationalGalleryofArtinWashingtonin1978changedpeople’sideasofamuseum.Thesitewasanoddtrapezoid(梯形)shape.Pei’ssolutionwastocutitintwo.Theresultingbuildingwasdramatic,lightandelegant—oneofthefirstcrowdpleasingcathedralsofmodernart.Thoughknownasamodernist,andnotableforhisformsbasedonarrangementsofsimplegeometric(几何的)shapes,heonceurgedChinesearchitectstolookmoretotheirarchitecturaltraditionratherthandesigninginawesternstyle.Inperson,I.M.Peiwasgoodhumored,charmingandunusuallymodest.Hisworkingprocesswasevolutionary,butinnovation(创新)wasneveranintendedgoal.“Stylisticoriginalityisnotmypurpose,”hesaid.“Iwanttofindtheoriginalityinthetime,theplaceandtheproblem.”25.WhatcanwelearnabouttheresultofredevelopmentoftheLouvreA.ItwascriticizedbytheFrench.B.Itturnedouttobeasuccess.C.ItmadetheLouvreD.ItchangedthefunctionoftheLouvre26.Whatcanwelearnfromtheunderlinedsentenceinparagraph4?A.Heisamasterinapplyingmaterials.B.Heisskilledinwritingpoems.C.Heoftenbinespoetryandconstruction.D.Hegetsinspirationfrompoetryindesigning.27.What’sthecorrectorderofthefollowingevents?a.DesigntheJohnF.KennedyPresidentialLibrary&Museum.b.StudyarchitectureattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyandHarvard.c.DesigntheNationalGalleryofArt.d.WinthefifthPritzkerArchitecturePrize.A.abcd B.bacd C.bcad D.dacd【答案】25.B26.A27.B【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文之人物传记。文章主要讲述了被认为是最后一批伟大的现代主义建筑师之一的美籍华人贝聿铭的生平贡献。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段Butintheend,theFrench—andeveryoneelse—werewonover.（但最后，法国人——以及其他所有人——都被说服了。）可知人们最终被说服。这说明人们认可了他的设计，他的设计最终证明是成功的。故选B项。【26题详解】推理判断题。根据前一句内容：WinningthefifthPritzkerArchitecturePrizein1983,hewasthoughtasgivingthe20thcentury“someofitsmostbeautifulinsidespacesandoutsideforms.（1983年，他获得了第五届普利兹克建筑奖(PritzkerArchitecturePrize)，被认为给了20世纪“一些最美丽的内部空间和外部形式”。）可知他的设计非常优美。划线句子是对之前句的进一步解释，即：他的建筑风格像诗歌那样优美。此句赞颂了他高潮的建筑造诣。A项：Heisamasterinapplyingmaterials.（他是应用材料的大师）符合合理推理。故选D项。【27题详解】细节理解题之事件排序题。从第五段AfterstudyingarchitectureattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyandHarvard,PeisetuphisownarchitecturalpracticeinNewYorkin1955.可以看出bStudyarchitectureattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyandHarvard.（在麻省理工学院和哈佛大学学习建筑。）最早发生。1964年发生了a事件DesigntheJohnF.KennedyPresidentialLibrary&Museum.（设计约翰·f·肯尼迪总统图书馆和博物馆。）1978年发生c事件DesigntheNationalGalleryofArt（设计国家美术馆）。1983年发生d事件WinthefifthPritzkerArchitecturePrize.（荣获第五届普利兹克建筑奖。）因此正确的排序为：bacd，故选B项。【点睛】阅读理解技巧排列顺序题，常出现在记叙文和说明文中，一般按事件发生的顺序。可采用首尾定位法或中间定位法，即找出第一个事件和最后一个事件，用排除法缩小范围。如果最后一个事件一致，那么可以与中间定位法相结合进行排除。比如文章第3小题考查事件排序：3.What’sthecorrectorderofthefollowingevents?a.DesigntheJohnF.KennedyPresidentialLibrary&Museum.b.StudyarchitectureattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyandHarvard.cDesigntheNationalGalleryofArt.d.WinthefifthPritzkerArchitecturePrize.A.abcdB.bacdC.bcadD.dacd文章最早的时间为第五段提及：AfterstudyingarchitectureattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyandHarvard,PeisetuphisownarchitecturalpracticeinNewYorkin1955.因此可知，b项StudyarchitectureattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyandHarvard.应在1955年之前发生，因此，b项为第一事件，因此可以排除A,D两项。BC两项的第二事件不一致，因此只需查看a项和c项的发生时间即可。通过查读可知，1964年发生了a事件DesigntheJohnF.KennedyPresidentialLibrary&Museum.1978年发生c事件DesigntheNationalGalleryofArt。故答案为B项。CBeingbored,lazyanddisconnectedfromphysicalworkleaveslotsoftimeandspaceforyourbodyandmindtofillwithnegativesubstitutes.Justasanoldsayinggoes,idlehandsarethedevil’splayground.Neuroscience(神经科学)actuallysupportsthistheory.Oratleast,researchshowsthattheoppositeistrue−activehandsstimulateyourbraintoproducechemicalsthatbalanceemotionsandloweranxiety.Inthe19thcenturyanxiouswomenwereoftengiventheprescriptiontoknit(编织)becausedoctorssensedthatitkindofcalmedthemdown.Thatisnottosaythatanxietycanbecuredbyknitting.Butitdoeshighlighthowrepetitivehandmovementsinvolvedinthecraftbinewiththesatisfactionofcastingoffafinishedproducttowearorgive.Itcarriesmentalhealthbenefitsatadeep,biochemicallevel.Otherresearchhasfocusedonknitting’semotionalbenefits.Onestudyshowedthatknittinglowerstheheartrateby11beatsperminute.Anotherlinkedknittingwithadecreasedchanceofdevelopingcognitiveimpairment(认知障碍)andmemoryloss.Andstillotherspointtopositivebenefitsinmanagingchronic(慢性的)painanddepression.Ofcourse,knittingisnottheonlywaytotakeyouremotionalwellbeingintoyourownhands.Woodworking,gardening,potteryandpaintingwillalsobenefityourmentalhealth.Andtheyallinvolveputtingyourtwohandstowork.Whatdoyoudowithyourhandstokeepthembusyandkeepyourselfcalmandhappy?28.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“idle”inParagraph1mean?A.Inactive.

的定冠词表示特指，那么可以根据此线索技巧进行“首个原词”定位，即找到所指相同的名词或短语或语句，即可选出正确选项。比如文章第1小题：“Cashisking”isanageoldsaying.___1___根据定冠词技巧，在选项E中FormuchofGermany,however,thephraseisstilluptodate，thephrase之前由定冠词the出现，说明之前有提到过，对应原文中的“Cashisking”这一谚语。所以E项为正确选项。第三部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Ihaddrivenhometocelebratemy38thbirthdaywithmymother.WhenIarrived,Ifoundher___36___proudlyatthekitchentable,achocolatecakeandtwoboxeswrappedorangeribbon(丝带)infrontofher.“Happybirthday!”shesaid,___37___attheboxes.“Openthem.”Assheknowsme___38___thananyone,she’dgottenmeexactlywhatIwanted—runningclothes.I___39___herandthankedherandproceeded(接着)toeatthecake.“Toomany___40___,”Isaid,notreallycaring.“You’llrunthemofftomorrow,”Momsaid.Manyadultchildrenwithaparentsufferingfrom___41___memorywilltellyoutherewasonedaythat___42___tothemthattheirrelationshipwiththeirmotherorfatherwouldbeforeverchanged.Formethatday___43___twoweekslater,whenIdrovebackforanothershort___44___.Icameuponexactlythesame____45____:mymomsittingatthekitchentable;achocolatecakerestingnexttotwo____46____wrappedincurlyribbon.Theribbonwasgreenthistime.Thatwastheonly____47____“Happybirthday!”mymomsaid.Iwastotally____48____.“What’sgoingon?”Iasked.Momsmiled.“Can’tIcelebratemydaughter’sbirthday?”Thiswasno____49____.Thiswasreallife,andsincemymotherclearlyonlywantedtomakeme____50____,Ipushedasidemyfearandfulfilledmyroleasthe____51____daughter.Ihuggedher,thankedherand____52____theclothes...Ididnotmentiontoherthatwe’ddoneallthistwo____53____ago.Myhouseisherworldnow.MymotherandIhavethe____54____conversationroughly10timesaday.____55____,Iconsideritapleasure,becauseeveryminuteisnewforher.36.A.cooking
