ì)微環(huán)節(jié)獲得詳細(xì)信息的實(shí)力由倒數(shù)其次段中的“Iamgoingtodoeverythingpossiblesothatmybirthplacebecomesaplacethathelpsdevelopthetourismandthehumanrelationsbetweenourtwocountries”可知，我將盡一切可能讓我的家鄉(xiāng)成為一個有助于發(fā)展我們兩國旅游業(yè)和人際關(guān)系的地方。所以，旅游業(yè)有助于改善中墨關(guān)系，故選D。BIntheHollywoodmovieTheMartian,actorMattDamonplaysanastronautwhogrowsfoodonMars(火星)tosurvivealoneontheredplanet.Afterseeingthemovie,WashingtonStateUniversityphysicistMichaelAllenandUniversityofIdahofoodscientistHelenJoynerdecidedtocarryoutacasestudyhelpingstudentsfigureouthowtofarmonMars.Inthecasestudy,studentshavetoimaginetheyaremining(采礦)onMarsanddecidehowtofeedthemselvestherebeforestartingonthejourney.TheygetadvicefromAllenandJoyneronhowtoselectcropsandtakethechallengesofgrowingcropsoverlongperiodsonMars.StudentsuseascoringsystemtoselectthreefoodstoplantonMars.Allenfoundtheresultsimpressive:among30students,“notwopeoplehaveevergottenthesameanswer”，hesaid.HumantravelerstoMarswilllikelyhavetomakeuseofresourcesontheplanetratherthantakeeverythingtheyneedwiththemonaspaceship.Thismeansfarmingtheirownfoodonanotherplanet,onethathasaverydifferentecosystem(生態(tài)系統(tǒng))fromEarth's.OnechallengeforthosewhowouldliketoliveonMarsisthefactthattherecanbenofarmingtools.Likerealastronauts,studentstakingpartinthestudycannottakealotoffarmingtoolswiththem.AsJoynerputittohisstudentastronauts,“Youarestartingwithnothing.”Besides,studentsalsohavetodealwithaverylimitedchoiceofdiet.“IfIhadtoeatasinglefoodfortherestofmylife,couldIdoit？”Joynerasked.ButAllenbelievesthecasestudyisaboutmorethanfarmingandeatingontheRedPlanet.“I'mnotteachingaboutgrowingfoodonMars，”Allensaid.“I'mteachingaboutlivingwithchoices.I'mteachingaboutproblemsolving.”3．Inthecasestudy,studentshaveto________.A．watchthemovietoknowtheconditionsonMarsB．decidewhichcroptogrowonMarswiththehelpoftheteachersC．designdifferenttypesofdietsonMarsforthemtochooseD．understandhowtofarmonMarswiththeirfavoritefarmingtools4．MichaelAllenthinksthatthecasestudy________.A．increasesstudents'knowledgeaboutfarmingB．helpsstudentknowmoreaboutMarsC．developsstudents'skillsofsolvingproblemsD．teachesstudentshowtomakeproperchoices5．Thepassageismainlyintendedto________.A．describearesearchonhowtofarmonMarsB．prepareustodealwithproblemsonMarsC．teachushowtosurviveonMarsaloneD．introduceaHollywoodmovie,TheMartian語篇導(dǎo)讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了一項(xiàng)關(guān)于如何在火星上種植作物的探討題號答案培育的思維實(shí)力解析3B理解細(xì)微環(huán)節(jié)獲得詳細(xì)信息的實(shí)力由其次段中的“TheygetadvicefromAllenandJoyneronhowtoselectcropsandtakethechallengesofgrowingcropsoverlongperiodsonMars.”可知，他們從Allen和Joyner那里得到如何選擇農(nóng)作物的建議，并接受在火星上長時間種植農(nóng)作物的挑戰(zhàn)。所以在案例探討中，學(xué)生必需在老師的幫助下確定在火星上種植哪種作物，故選B。4C推理推斷實(shí)力由最終一句話“I'mteachingaboutproblemsolving.”可知，我在教解決問題。所以通過MichaelAllen所說的話可以推斷出，MichaelAllen通過案例探討培育了學(xué)生解決問題的實(shí)力，故選C。5A推理推斷實(shí)力通讀全文可知。第一段以一部電影引出aresearchonhowtofarmonMars的話題，其次段說明白要在老師的幫助下選擇所要種植的種子。第三段、第四段、第五段和第六段說明白在火星上種植作物所面對的有限的客觀條件，第七段和第八段說明白這項(xiàng)探討的意義，所以可推斷出這篇文章的主要目的是描述一項(xiàng)關(guān)于如何在火星上種植作物的探討，故選A。Ⅳ.閱讀理解與真實(shí)寫作(40分)下面的短文全面介紹了長城，閱讀后請依據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，寫一篇100～300詞的長城簡介。TheGreatWallofChina—AllYouWanttoKnowGetathoroughintrototheGreatWallofChina:interestingfacts,whobuiltit,andwhy,andhow,locations,maps,length,height,Beijingtours...TheGreatWallofChinaisoneofthegreatestsightsintheworld—thelongestwallintheworld,anamazingancientdefensivearchitecture.Itswindingpathoverruggedcountryandsteepmountainstakesinsomegreatscenery.TheGreatWallfacts?Chinesename:長城(Chángchéng/channg-chnng/‘LongWall’)?Location:NorthernChina?Length:21,196.18_km_(13,170.7_miles),_all_known_sections_were_measured?History:morethan2,300yearsWhoBuilttheGreatWallandWhyThe“LongWall”hasalonghistory—morethan2,300years.Itwasbuiltindifferentareasbydifferentstates/dynastiestoprotectdifferentterritorialborders.WhoBuilttheGreatWall,andWhenIt'softensaidthattheFirstEmperorofQinbuilttheGreatWall.Actuallyhewasnotthefirsttobuildit.Seebelow：DynastyGreatWallHistory—KeyEventsZhouDynasty:The(Pre-)WarringStatesPeriod(770－221BC)Stateoverlordsbuiltstateborderwalls.TheQinDynasty(221－207BC)TheFirstEmperorofQinlinkedtheGreatWallsectionsonChina'snorthernborder.TheHanDynasty(206BC－220AD)HanWudiextendedtheGreatWallwesttoYumenPassandbeyond.TheMingDynasty(1368－1644)HeroGeneralQiJiguangrebuilttheGreatWallaroundBeijing.TheGreatWallwasbuilttopreventinvasionandprotectsilkroadtrade.WhytheGreatWallWasBuilt?Topreventinvasion?ToprotectSilkRoadtradeIntheQinDynasty,theFirstEmperorofQinlinkedthenorthernwallstopreventinvasionfromnorthernnations.IntheHanDynasty,theemperorsextendedtheGreatWallfarintotoday'swesternChinatoprotectSilkRoadtrade.HowtheGreatWallwasBuiltThemajesticGreatWallwasbuiltwithwisdom,dedication,blood,sweat,andtears.Familieswereseparated,andmanyworkersdiedandwereburiedundertheGreatWall.?Workers:soldiers,peasants,rebels?Materials:stone,soil,sand,brick?Materialdelivery:byhand,rope,cart,goatHowTallIstheGreatWall?TheheightoftheGreatWallis5－8meters(16－26feet),whereintact/restored.Itwasdesignedtobeatleastthreetimestheheightofaman.TheGreatWall'sS
