的一个颁奖典礼上警告说,这些课程已经成为最弱势社区儿童的“真正挑战”。)”可知,本段主要介绍了钢琴天才朗朗的一些基本信息,可推知,本段的目的是提供一些背景信息。故选A。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“NowheisbringingmusictoBritishstateschoolsinanambitiousprojectthatwillsetupmodern“pianolabs”inneedyschoolsacrossthenation.(现在,他正在把音乐带到英国公立学校,这是一个雄心勃勃的项目,将在全国各地的贫困学校建立现代“钢琴实验室”。)”可知,在英国,朗朗帮助的是那些贫困学校,故选D。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“AskedwhatinspiredhimtosupportUKschools,Langtoldthereporter:“WewereabletoidentifymanysimilaritiesbetweenstateschoolsintheUKandpublicschoolsintheUSintermsofthewayaccesstomusicandartscanbeextremelylimitedwhenbudgetsarecut…Iwassosurprisedbyhowmusicclassesareneverguaranteed.Theschoolsandteachersareincredible,andaresodedicatedtoprovidingtheirstudentswitheverythingtheycan.Butitshockedmehowaccesstomusiceducationcanbesolimited.(当被问及是什么促使他支持英国的学校时,郎朗告诉记者:“我们发现英国的公立学校和美国的公立学校有很多相似之处,在预算削减的情况下,音乐和艺术的机会非常有限……我很惊讶为什么音乐课从来没有得到保证。学校和老师都很棒,他们竭尽所能地为学生提供一切。但让我震惊的是,接受音乐教育的机会竟然如此有限。”)”可知,朗朗发现英国的公立学校在预算削减的情况下,音乐和艺术的机会非常有限,这使得他有了要支持英国学校的想法,即朗朗决定帮助支持英国的学校是这些学校的音乐课不能得到保证。故选B。【7题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,文章在第一段中交代了钢琴天才——朗朗的一些信息,进而在接下来的段落中提到了朗朗计划在英国的贫困学校设立“钢琴实验室”的事情和朗朗决定帮助这些学校的动机及朗朗希望他的帮助行为能够实现的,结合第三段的“IntheUS,hehassetuppianolabsin86schools,giving70,000kidsaccesstokeyboards. (在美国,他在86所学校建立了钢琴实验室,让7万名孩子接触到琴键)”,所以本文的标题应为“中国巨星把音乐带给了英国的孩子”,故选C。CDifferentforestsinthewesternUnitedStateshaveuniquecombinationsoftreesandbirds.Onetypehasbroad-leavedtreeslikeashandcottonwood,alongwithkingbirds.Anohertypehasevergreentreeslikepineandwhitespruce,alongwithjuncos.Ecologistsintheearlytwentiethcenturyonceclaimedtheseecologicalcommunitieswerepreciselybalancedsystems,whereeveryspecieshadaspecificroletoplayinacomplexmachine.Theybelievedthatremovingoraddinganyplant,bird,orinsect,coulddisruptthisbalanceandharmthe

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了以前和现在的科学家对于生态群落的不同看法,比较了二者的区别,指出了其中的错误。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Ecologistsintheearlytwentiethcenturyonceclaimedtheseecologicalcommunitieswerepreciselybalancedsystems,whereeveryspecieshadaspecificroletoplayinacomplexmachine.Theybelievedthatremovingoraddinganyplant,bird,orinsect,coulddisruptthisbalanceandharmthehabitat.(20世纪初的生态学家曾声称,这些生态群落是精确平衡的系统,其中每个物种在复杂的机器中都扮演着特定的角色。他们认为,移除或添加任何植物、鸟类或昆虫都会破坏这种平衡,损害栖息地)”可知,20世纪早期的生态学家普遍认为每个物种在群落中扮演着特定的角色。故选A。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Gleasonviewedthecommunityaslargelyagroupofspecieswithsimilartolerancestothestressesgivenbyclimateandotherfactorstypicaloftheregion.(格里森认为这个群落主要是一群对气候和该地区典型因素所带来的压力具有相似耐受性的物种)”可知,根据格里森的说法,抗压能力影响了物种的生存。故选B。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Whowasright?ItnowappearsthatGleasonwasmoreaccuratethanClements.Theecologicalcommunityismostlyarandomcollectionofspecieswithsimilarresponsestoaparticularclimate.Ashtreesarefoundinassociationwithcottonwoodtreesbecausebothcansurvivewellonfloodplainsandthecompetitionbetweenthemisnotsostrongthatonlyonecansurvive.(谁是对的?现在看来格里森比克莱门茨更准确。生态群落主要是对特定气候有相似反应的物种的随机集合。人们发现白蜡树与白杨树有关联,因为两者都能在洪泛区很好地生存,而且它们之间的竞争不会激烈到只有一种树能生存)”可知,作者在第三段提到了两种树是为了支持当前关于生态群落如何发展的观点。故选D。【11题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“duetothefalsebeliefthatnature,especiallyacomplexsystemlikeaforest,seemssounchangingfromonedaytothenext”可知,我们错误地认为自然,尤其是像森林这样的复杂系统,似乎每天都是不变的,这属于我们对自然的错误理解,故划线词意思是“理解”。故选C。DCuriosity—thedesiretoknow,todiscover,tolearn.Inspiredbycuriosity,humansarefoundeverywhereonourplanet,andbeyonditinspace.YetaccordingtohumanbehaviouristandauthorofCurious,IanLeslie,althoughweareallborncurious,notallofusbringthisintoadulthood,andwecanloseoutasaresult.AsLeslieexplains,curiosityshapesusfromthestart.Bytryingnewthings,webuildknowledge,andwantto

根据后文“Inenvironmentswhenone’shandsareoccupied,suchaswhiledrivingorcooking,thespokenwebishelpful.Thinkaboutwhenyouarecooking,itisnaturaltotalk.Andspeechobviouslymakessensewhenyouaredriving.Ontheotherhand,inaquietlibrary,usingvoicecommandstoaskaquestionmaynotbeassuitableastyping,asitcoulddisturbothers.Theeffectivenessofusingvoicedependsonthespecificsurroundings.(在双手被占用的环境中,比如开车或做饭时,语音网络很有帮助。想想当你做饭的时候,说话是很自然的。当你开车的时候,说话显然是有意义的。另一方面,在安静的图书馆里,使用语音命令提问可能不如打字那么合适,因为它可能会打扰别人。使用声音的有效性取决于特定的环境)”可知,后文提到了使用语音的不同环境,有的环境里使用语音很方便,而有的环境会打扰别人,说明使用语音取决于环境。故D选项“使用语音的好处显然取决于环境”符合语境,故选D。第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Myfavouriterockbandgracedthetown.Iheadedtotheconcertwiththedesireto___21___myyouth.Atthattime,Iwasn’texactlydepressed,butinmiddleage,Ihadcometobelievethatallthebigmomentsinmylifewere___22___me.Fromthefirstsong,Iwas___23___bythecomplexityofJon’snew,innovativemusic,andIrealizedthatJonandhisbandwerealmostthesame___24___asme.Butunlikeme,theywerecontinuingtodevelop___25___.Astheconcertwenton,IbeganthinkingthatIshouldalsoexploreinnew,untried___26___.Iftheycouldhugchange,whycouldn’tI?Thefollowingday,Ieagerlydownloadedtheirnewalbum.Ifoundthesong‘WelcometoWhereverYouAre’___27___inspiring,sinceitseemedtospeakdirectlytomysituation.Thewordsencouragedmybeliefinthepowerofuntappedpotential.AsIlistened,Iresolvedto___28___myownhorizonsandpushmyselftowardsnewgoals.Withinfourmonths,Ihadproudlypublishedmyfirstshortstory.Anothersuccesssoon___29___,andthenapoemI___30___aboutsummergivingwaytofallwonanationalaward.___31___bythatsuccess,Iwroteachildren’sbook,foundapublisher,andthebookremainsin___32___evennow.This___33___journeyallbeganatthatJon’sconcert,wherewhatIthoughtwasadestinationturnedouttobea(n)___34___.Takingthe___35___pathhasledmetoincredible,newplaces,andthereisstillmuchundiscoveredterritoryawaitingme.21.A.forgetB.concludeC.analyzeD.revisit22.A.behindB.beyondC.aboveD.below
