B.Entertainment. C.Science. D.Sports.【答案】32.D33.B34.A35.C【解析】【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了研究人員對大猩猩拍打胸部的行為進行了觀察和研究，認為大猩猩表現(xiàn)出這種行為不是為了打架，而是為了展示自己的體型，從而避免打斗。【32題詳解】主旨大意題。根據第二段“Scientistsobserved25wildmalemountaingorillasforover3,000hours.Theresearchteamusedaudio(音頻)equipmenttorecordthesoundfrequency,rate,duration,andamountofchestbeats.Todetermineeachgorilla’ssize,theresearchersusedcamerastophotographandmeasureeachgorilla’sback.(科學家對25只野生雄性山地大猩猩進行了3000多個小時的觀察。研究小組使用音頻設備記錄下聲音的頻率、頻率、持續(xù)時間和胸部跳動的次數(shù)。為了確定每只大猩猩的大小，研究人員用相機拍攝并測量了每只大猩猩的背部)”可知，第二段主要介紹了科學家們開展該研究的具體方法。故選D?！?3題詳解】細節(jié)理解題。根據第三段中“Thechest-beatingcouldbeawayforthegorillastoadvertisetheirsizetoothersand,inturn,avoidfightsthatcouldresultinseriousinjuryordeath.(拍打胸部可能是大猩猩向其他動物展示自己體型的一種方式，從而避免可能導致嚴重傷害或死亡的打斗)”可知，一些大猩猩拍打胸部是為了展示自己的體型，把其他大猩猩嚇跑，避免打斗。故選B。【34題詳解】細節(jié)理解題。根據最后一段中“AnimalexpertAnnaNekarissaysitwouldbeinterestingtoseeifsmallergorillascanimitatethedeeptonesoflargeronesinfuturestudies.(動物專家AnnaNekaris說，在未來的研究中，看看小型大猩猩是否能模仿大型大猩猩的低沉音調，這將是一件有趣的事情)”可知，Nekaris建議研究人員在未來研究小一點的大猩猩是否能發(fā)出低沉的拍打胸部的聲音。故選A。【35題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第一段“Gorillas(大猩猩)infilmssuchasKingKongandTarzanarewildlybeatingtheirchestswhenunderthreat.Researchershavetriedtofindoutwhatthebehaviormightmean,andtheydoubtthatthegorillasexhibitthisbehaviornottostartfights,buttopreventthemselves—andchest-beatingcouldbeusedtoadvertisetheirbodysizetoothergorillas.(電影《金剛》和《人猿泰山》中的大猩猩在受到威脅時會瘋狂地捶打自己的胸膛。研究人員試圖找出這種行為可能意味著什么，他們懷疑大猩猩表現(xiàn)出這種行為不是為了打架，而是為了保護自己——而且捶胸可以用來向其他大猩猩宣傳自己的體型)”結合文章圍繞一項針對大猩猩拍打胸部的行為的研究展開，介紹了通過長時間的觀察和研究，研究人員認為大猩猩表現(xiàn)出這種行為不是為了打架，而是為了展示自己的體型，從而避免打斗。因此，文章主要涉及動物科學領域，可能出自報紙的科學欄目。故選C。第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。DoyouoftenfeelnervouswhenspeakingEnglish?____36____I’lltellyousometipsforimprovingyourconfidencewhenspeakingEnglish.●Concentrateonthepositive,notthenegative(消極的).____37____Don’tthinkorsaythingslike“MyEnglishissobad”or“I’llneverbegoodatEnglish”.Thosenegativebeliefswillmakeyoulessconfident.Instead,thinkaboutyoursuccessesandstrongpoints.Whenyouconcentrateonpositivethings,yourconfidencewillimprove.●Understandthatmostmistakesaren’tsoserious.Understandthatmostmistakesdon’tmatterverymuch.Ifyou’realwaysworryingaboutmistakes,thenyou’llfeelnervousaboutyourEnglish.Butthetruthisthatwhenyou’respeaking,mostpeoplewon’tnoticeyoursmallmistakes.____38____●Standupstraight,makeeyecontact,smileandbreathe.Oneinvolveswhatyoudowithyourbodywhenyou’respeakingEnglish,andthatistostandupstraightorsitupstraight,makeeyecontact,smileandremembertobreathe.____39____Sowhenyouactconfidentlywithyourbodybyhavinggoodpostureandmakingeyecontact,andwhenyourelaxyourfacebysmilingandbreathing,thesewillmakeyourspokenEnglishmoreconfidentandcomfortableaswell.●____40____Themoreyoupracticesomething,notonlydoyougetbetter,butyoualsogetmoreconfident.IfyouonlyspeakEnglishonceaweekforacoupleminutes,thenit’sgoingtotakealongtimetobuildupyourconfidence!Lookforotheropportunitiestopracticeyourspeaking.A.Speaklouderandslower.B.Practiceasmuchaspossible.C.Whatyouneedtodoistoimproveyourattitude.D.Yourbodylanguagehasaneffectonyourconfidence.E.AreyouwonderinghowtospeakEnglishconfidently?F.HowdoyoucorrectyourmistakeswhenwritingEnglish?G.Sorelaxanddon’tputsomuchstressonyourselftobeperfect.【答案】36E37.C38.G39.D40.B【解析】【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章關于如何自信地說英語給出一些建議。【36題詳解】上文“DoyouoftenfeelnervouswhenspeakingEnglish?(你說英語時經常感到緊張嗎？)”提出說英語時是否緊張的問題，選項E“你想知道如何自信地說英語嗎？”承接上文，進一步提出想不想自信地說英語，引出下文“I’lltellyousometipsforimprovingyourconfidencewhenspeakingEnglish.(我將告訴你一些提高你說英語自信的技巧。)”介紹本文主題。故選E項。【37題詳解】上文“Concentrateonthepositive,notthenegative(消極的).(關注積極的一面，而不是消極的一面。)”建議要積極對待不要消極對待，選項C“你需要做的是改善你的態(tài)度?！背薪由衔模ㄗh改善消極態(tài)度為積極態(tài)度。故選C項?！?8題詳解】上文“Butthetruthisthatwhenyou’respeaking,mostpeoplewon’tnoticeyoursmallmistakes.(但事實是，當你說話的時候，大多數(shù)人不會注意到你的小錯誤。)”說明大多數(shù)人不會注意小錯誤，選項G“所以放輕松，不要給自己太大的壓力去追求完美。”和上文存在因果關系，所以不要有太大壓力。故選G項?！?9題詳解】下文“Sowhenyouactconfidentlywithyourbodybyhavinggoodpostureandmakingeyecontact,andwhenyourelaxyourfacebysmilingandbreathing,thesewillmakeyourspokenEnglishmoreconfidentandcomfortableaswell.(因此，當你通過良好的姿勢和眼神交流自信地對待自己的身體，當你微笑和呼吸放松你的臉時，這些都會讓你的英語口語更加自信和舒適。)”說明良好的身體姿勢會讓英語口語更加自信，選項D“你的肢體語言對你的自信有影響?！焙拖挛拇嬖谝蚬P系。語義一致，故選D項?！?0題詳解】下文“Themoreyoupracticesomething,notonlydoyougetbetter,butyoualsogetmoreconfident.(你練習得越多，不僅你做得越好，而且你也會變得更自信。)”說明練的越多越好，選項B“盡可能多地練習?！备爬ㄏ挛模ㄗh盡可能多的練習。故選項B。第三部分英語知識運用（共兩節(jié)，滿分30分）第一節(jié)完形填空（共15小題；每小題1分，滿分15分）KatieStaglianowas9yearsoldandshewasinthethirdgrade.Atthebeginningofthenewterm,shebeganagardeningprojectaspartofaschool____41____.Herteachertoldhertoplantvegetableseedsinherhomegarden.Katietookthiswork____42____.Shecarefullyplantedtheseedsandshefelt____43____asshefoundthreetinygreencabbageleavesgrowtobecomeahugeand40-poundcabbage.Later,asa(n)____44____,Katieandotherstudentsstartedplantingvegetablegardensthroughoutthecommunity.Theydonated(捐贈)their____45____tothelocalsoupkitchen.Katiedreamedofoneday____46____herhobbyintoaharvestmovementwherethevegetablegardenswouldhelpsupportsoupkitchensandfoodshelterorganizations.She____47____ending
