A28-31BADD32-35BDCA36-40DFBGA本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们喜欢捏包装袋的气泡的原因。36.D空格前讲:你是否曾享受过捏破一张气泡包装纸上的小气泡的乐趣?D项“如果是这样的话,你便会知道那是一件极其令人满
足的事。”与上文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选D。37.F空格后讲:这些小举动都是类似的需要动来动去(的行为)。F项“你在听的时候会按笔或抖腿吗?”与下文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选F。38.B空格前讲:一些人认为动来动去是让人分神的,但其实它
可以提高注意力;第三段最后一句讲:捏气泡包装纸的好处是它可以提高人们集中注意力并记住他们所学东西的能力。B项“它还有助于记忆信息。”与上下文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选B。39.G空格后讲:换言之,你的大脑会兴奋地享受它!G项“专家还表示,这种享受可能与人类的进化有关。”与下文衔接紧密,符合语境
。故选G。40.A空格前讲:事实上,研究表明,有时候,在捏气泡包装纸后,人类的大脑会接收到令人舒适的化学物质,像多巴胺。A项“所以这可能就是它令人如此满足的原因!”与上文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选A。第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)41-45.ABCDB46-50.CADCA51
-55.DACBD56.appreciation57.which58.havebeenproduced59.a60.were61.toadmire62.sharing63.wider64.generations65.on这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了莫高窟文物数字图像采集工作的进程、历
史重要性以及采集来的数字图像的用途。56.考查名词。动词increase后接名词形式作宾语。故填appreciation。57.考查定语从句。分析句子可知,这是非限定性定语从句。先行词为theMagaoCav
es,在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。58.考查时态和语态。句意:自从1994年这个国际项目开始后,大约已经生成五十万份高质量的数字影像。由时间状语since可知,应使用现在完成时。主
语digitalphotographs与produce之间是被动关系,所以应使用被动语态。且主语是复数形式,故填havebeenproduced。59.考查冠词。名词point为可数名词,且前面的meet
ing是以辅音音素发音开头,所以用不定冠词a。ameetingpoint表示“一个交集点”。故填a。60.考查时态。句意:现在这些石窟就像当年人们走丝绸之路时一样具有国际性。根据“atthetimewhenpeopletravelledtheSilkRoad.”可知
用一般过去时,根据主语they可知,谓语用复数形式。故填were。61.考查非谓语动词。句意:世界各地的游客来敦煌看石窟,洛杉矶盖蒂博物馆复制了这些石窟和画,让人们在美国就可以欣赏。这里用不定式的复合结构:forsb.todosth.作定语,修饰名词
copy。故填toadmire。62.考查非谓语动词。介词by后接动名词形式。故填sharing。63.考查形容词比较级。空格位于名词前,应用形容词形式。even修饰形容词的比较级,再根据句意“该组织希望能
在世界范围内引起人们对中国古代历史的更广泛兴趣”。故填wider。64.考查名词的数。句意:他们还希望进一步教育人们保护历史和文化遗产的重要性,让子孙后代了解和欣赏。名词generation为可数名词,且前无冠词,所以用复数形式表
示泛指。故填generations。65.考查介词。句意:一位从事该项目的研究人员解释说,“欣赏文化遗产对国际交流和理解非常重要。”短语workon从事于……。故填on。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节

)21-23ACD24-27BADA28-31BADD32-35BDCA36-40DFBGA本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们喜欢捏包装袋的气泡的原因。36.D空格前讲:你是否曾享受过捏破一张气泡包装纸上的小气泡的乐趣?D项“如果是这样的话,你便会知道那是一件极其令人满足的
事。”与上文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选D。37.F空格后讲:这些小举动都是类似的需要动来动去(的行为)。F项“你在听的时候会按笔或抖腿吗?”与下文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选F。38.B空格前讲:一些人认为动来动去是让人分神的,但其实它可以提高注意
力;第三段最后一句讲:捏气泡包装纸的好处是它可以提高人们集中注意力并记住他们所学东西的能力。B项“它还有助于记忆信息。”与上下文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选B。39.G空格后讲:换言之,你的大脑会兴奋地享受它!G项“专家还表示,这种享受可能与人类的进化有关。”与下文衔接紧密
,符合语境。故选G。40.A空格前讲:事实上,研究表明,有时候,在捏气泡包装纸后,人类的大脑会接收到令人舒适的化学物质,像多巴胺。A项“所以这可能就是它令人如此满足的原因!”与上文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选A。第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30
分)41-45.ABCDB46-50.CADCA51-55.DACBD56.appreciation57.which58.havebeenproduced59.a60.were61.toadmire62.sharing63.wider64.
generations65.on这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了莫高窟文物数字图像采集工作的进程、历史重要性以及采集来的数字图像的用途。56.考查名词。动词increase后接名词形式作宾语。故填appreciation。57.考查定语从句。分析句子可
知,这是非限定性定语从句。先行词为theMagaoCaves,在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。58.考查时态和语态。句意:自从1994年这个国际项目开始后,大约已经生成五十万份高质量的数字影
像。由时间状语since可知,应使用现在完成时。主语digitalphotographs与produce之间是被动关系,所以应使用被动语态。且主语是复数形式,故填havebeenproduced。59.考查冠
词。名词point为可数名词,且前面的meeting是以辅音音素发音开头,所以用不定冠词a。ameetingpoint表示“一个交集点”。故填a。60.考查时态。句意:现在这些石窟就像当年人们走丝绸之路时一样具有国际性。根据“atthetimewhenpeopletravel
ledtheSilkRoad.”可知用一般过去时,根据主语they可知,谓语用复数形式。故填were。61.考查非谓语动词。句意:世界各地的游客来敦煌看石窟,洛杉矶盖蒂博物馆复制了这些石窟和画,让人们在美国就可以欣赏。这里用不定式
的复合结构:forsb.todosth.作定语,修饰名词copy。故填toadmire。62.考查非谓语动词。介词by后接动名词形式。故填sharing。63.考查形容词比较级。空格位于名词前,应用形容词形式。even修饰形容词的比较级,再根据句意“该组织希望能在世界范
围内引起人们对中国古代历史的更广泛兴趣”。故填wider。64.考查名词的数。句意:他们还希望进一步教育人们保护历史和文化遗产的重要性,让子孙后代了解和欣赏。名词generation为可数名词,且前无冠词,所以用复数形式表示泛指。故填generations。6
5.考查介词。句意:一位从事该项目的研究人员解释说,“欣赏文化遗产对国际交流和理解非常重要。”短语workon从事于……。故填on。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(15分)AMemorableLaborEx
