理解(60分)A[语篇类型]应用文[文章大意]本文介绍了英国几个不同寻常的姓氏以及它们的特定背景和来源。【核心素养】语篇通过介绍英国的几个不同寻常的姓氏,帮助考生了解英国的姓氏起源,开阔考生的文化视野,促进考生文化意识的提升。【背景知识】英国
人在历史上很长一段时间里只有名字而没有姓氏,直到16世纪,姓氏的使用才广泛流行开来。英国的姓氏来源有很多,主要与居性地、职业或身份、动植物、个人特征有关,如Sharp夏普(精明的),还有些姓民与地理、地貌或环境特征有关,如Field菲尔德(原野)。最常见的英
国人的姓氏有Jones,Smith,Brown,Wilson,Taylor,Williams等。1.C细节理解。根据Gotobed部分中的"thesurnameoriginatedfrompeoplewhohadabed,wh
ichwasrarebackinthel2thcentury.Peoplewereproudthattheycouldaffordtohaveabed,thusaddingittotheirname"可知,Gotobed这个姓氏起
源于有床的人,在12世时,床在英国还是奢侈品,人们为能够买得起床而自豪.所以就把它加到名字里了,因此Gotobed这个姓氏可以最示出一个家庭的富裕。故C。2.D细节理解。根据题干信息把解题线索定位到Onions和Nutter部分。根据On
ions部分中的"identifiedaperson'sjob.Hewaseitheraselleroragrowerofthevegetable可知,Onions这个姓氏说明这个人要么是卖洋葱的人,要么是种洋范的人;Nutter部分的最后一句提到Nutter是"Notere
"和"Nothard"的变体,两者分别表示职员和养公牛的人。由此可知,两个姓氏的共同点在于它们都表明职业情况。故选D3.A细节理解。根据Hardmeat部分中的"Infact,itmightjusthavebeenami
sspellingofthevillagethatthenamecamefrom,whichwas'Hardmead'inEngland"可知,Hardmeat是英国一乡村Hardmead名字的误拼。故选
A。B[文章大意]本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了2020年诺贝尔文学奖获得者LouiseGluck的个人创作历程以及她的主要作品。4.C细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Theprizecommitteestressedherunmi
stakablepoeticvoicethatwithplainbeautymakesindividualexistenceuniversal’."可知,评奖委员会强调“她充满诗意的、具有朴素美的话语使个人的存在具有普遍性”,即评奖委员会认为,是(作品所体现出的)简单的美使Gluc
k的作品如此受欢迎。故选C。5.B细节理解题。根据第二段第三句中的“Childhoodandfamilylife,thecloserelationshipwithfamiliesisathemethathasremainedcentraltoher”可知,童年和家庭生活、与
家人的亲密关系一直是她在作品中使用的中心主题。故选B。6.D细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中的““visionaryinterpretationofthemythofPersephone'sfallintohellinthecaptivity
(因禁)ofHades,thegodofdeath’”以及第三段第二句中的“'shedescribesthemiraculousreturnoflifeafterwinterinthepoemSnowdrops’”可知,这两本诗集
均谈论了生命与死亡。故选D。7.B推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句中的“thatprizescanmake‘existenceintheworldeasier’butdidnotamounttotheimmortality(不朽)ofatrueartist”可知,Gluck认
为奖项可以让“在这个世界上的生存变得更容易”,但这并不意味着一位真正的艺术家的不朽。由此可推知,Gluck暗示了获奖对一位真正的艺术家来说并不是很重要。故选B。C【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了科学家新发现的古猿遗骨的相关情况,并指出这可能会刷新人们关于何时人类的祖先开始直立的观点。
8.A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“thefossilizedskeletonofamaleapethatlivedinthehumidforestsofwhatisnowsouthernGermany”可知,科学家在德国发现了古猿遗骨,故选A。]9.D推理判断题。根据第四段中的“
Previousfossilrecordsofapeswithanuprightmove—foundinCreteandKenya—datedonlyasfarbackas6millionyears.Theseap
esarecalledToumai”和第五段中的“Amongtheremainstheywereabletopiecetogetherprimate(灵长目动物)fossilsbelongingtofourindividualsthatlived11.62millionye
arsago”可推知,Danuvius生活的时期比Toumai早得多,故选D。10.B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“theywouldlikelybedeniedorsuspectedbyothers”可推知,Spoor
认为这项发现可能会引起很多争议,故选B。11.D标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了一项考古发现,通读全文内容可知,第一段概括了全文的主要内容,由此可知,D项最适合作本篇文章的标题。D12-15BABC七选五16.F17.C18.A1
9.D20.G【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了给自己起英文名时需要注意的事项。16.F根据上文“However,theprocessofchoosinganameisopentounintendedconsequenceswhi
chcanresultininvoluntarilyfunnynames.”(然而,选择名字的过程可能会导致意想不到的后果,这可能导致无意识的滑稽名字)可知,英文名字没选好有时会闹出一些笑话。再结合下文给出的几个关于取英文名字的建议
可推知,设空处提出有避免英文名字被误解的方法。F项“下面是一些在选择英文名字时避免误解的小技巧”符合文意,起到了承上启下的作用。故选F。17.C根据上文“Sugar-soundingnamessuchas“Candy”or“Sweetie”aremostli
kelychosenbecausetheysoundcute.”(听起来像糖果一样的名字更容易被选择,因为它们听起来很可爱,例如Candy或者Sweetie)和下文的“BecausetheyarequitesuggestivenamesintheUK,
oftenconnectedtothe“Ladiesofthenight”.(因为在英国它们是很有暗示性的名字,通常和夜店女郎联系在一起)可推知,设空处指出虽然这些名字好听,但取这样的名字也会有风险。C项“但是,
选择这些好听的名字也有相应的风险”符合语境,下文是对选项的解释,上文的“Sugar-soundingnames”呼应选项中的“thesesweetnames”。故选C。18.A根据上文“Manystudentschooseold-fashioned,unusualnameswhichtheymay
havereadinanoldbookorseeninanoldfilm.”(许多学生选择的是他们可能在以前的书中读过或在老电影中看过的老式的、不寻常的名字)和下文“Soifyouchooseanamewhichisnotcommonlyusedtoda
y,itwillsoundstrangeandoutofplace.”(因此如果你选择一个如今不常用的名字,听起来会很奇怪,很不合适)可知,时代不同,所选的名字也应该不同。由此推知,设空处应讲述英文名字的流行趋势会随着时间而改变。A项“名字的趋势会随
着时间而改变”符合语境。故选A。19.D分析段落结构可知,设空处为本段小标题。根据下文“Thoughtheideaisniceintheory,“Dumbledore”isnotacommonnameinBritain.Bycalling
yourself“Dumbledore”peoplemayassumethatyouareassociatedwiththemagical.Butnameslike“Harry”fromHarryPott
erisfinebecauseitisacommonEnglishname.”(尽管这个想法在理论上不错,但“邓布利多”这个名字在英国并不常见,如果你给自己起名叫“邓布利多”,人们可能会认为你与魔法有关。但是像《哈利波特》里的“哈利”这样的名字很好,因
为它是一个常用的英文名)可知,本段主要讲述如果要以小说中虚构人物的名字给自己取英文名一定要注意。D项“以虚构人物给自己起名时要小心”可以作为本段小标题。故选D。20.G根据上文“Bycallingyourself“Dumble
dore”peoplemayassumethatyouareassociatedwiththemagical.Butnameslike“Harry”fromHarryPotterisfinebecauseitisac
ommonEnglishname.”(如果你给自己起名叫“邓布利多”,人们可能会认为你与魔法有关。但是像《哈利波特》里的“哈利”这样的名字很好,因为它是一个常用的英文名)可知,此处总结上文,讲的是在以虚构人物给自己起名前要检查一下这个名字是否常用
,G项“因此,在使用之前,只需检查它是否是一个常用的英文名”符合语境,上文的common对应选项中的commonly。故选G。II.完形填空(40分)【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要讲述作者无意中发现自己的母亲总是把买来
的杂货送给贫民窟的孩子们,在被母亲无私行为感动的同时,自己也加入其中。21.C。逻辑推理题。根据上文的“去年我被安排在靠近我妈妈家附近的一个办公室上班”可推知上下文是因果关系,“因此,我和妈妈一起待了一个月的时间”,故选C。22.B。词语复现题。根据下文thegro
cerieswererunningoutprettyquickly可知此处填groceries“杂货”。23.D。逻辑推理题。根据下文“Ibeganobservingmymother’sdailyroutinefortwoweeks”可知,“我”注
意到了杂货用得很快。notice注意到。故选D。24.A。逻辑推理题。结合上文“一周后,我开始注意到家里的杂货用得非常快。”可推知作者应该感到confused困惑的,才会出现下文作者开始观察。故选A。25.C。逻辑推理题。根据下文作者的观察“我发现母亲会打包一纸袋罐装食品”,这是令“我”惊
