21、ad lived in Britain. 1 The Vikings of Denmark, Norway and Sweden arrived in Britain more than one thousand years ago. The next invasion took place in the year 1066. French forces from Normandy were led by a man known as William the Conqueror. 2 The words “parliament” “jury” “justice” and others that
22、 deal with law come from the Norman rulers. The English language was violently influenced by an event that took place more than one thousand four hundred years ago. In the year 597, a Roman religion began its attempt to establish the religion of Britain. 3 Latin was not spoken as a language in any c

27、 “selfish”. This certainly described me, until I met my dear grandmother.My father was born in Japan, and he had many old, old photographs of the palatial (宫殿般的) estate that had belonged to his family through many generations. He told me stories of gorgeous rooms full of golden furniture and silk wa
28、ll papers. He also described magnificent gardens full of the sweet scents of exotic flowers and the gentle thin stream of graceful fountains.From all these, I figured my grandmother must be rich. I had never met her before she came from Japan, but at eight, I reasoned that if I were nice to her, she
29、 would take me back to Japan to live in luxury. It was a good plan, I thought, and I vowed to spend time with my grandmother so she would grow to love me and want me to accompany her upon her return.We went to pick her up at the airport. “There she is!” my father called. I expected to see some royal

36、.语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文。美国独立战争期间,大陆军在乔治华盛顿的领导下在福吉谷不畏严寒、不怕吃苦、顽强训练,最终首次战胜了英国人。1. A推理判断题。由第二段中的“This allowed him to keep a watchful eye on their movements.make fortifications. Nearby was also the Schuylkill River, which was used as a barrier to the North.”可推断,华盛顿把福吉谷选为冬天营地是因为那里具有重要的战略意义,对于高效作战极为关键。根据“It was clos
37、e to Philadelphia, which was where the British had been camping out for the winter.”可以判断C项错误,福吉谷距离英军营地很近。由第六段的“the freezing weather”和“food was lacking,and there were very few warm clothes,shoes,or blankets”可知,环境极为艰苦,供给也不足,B、D两项与文意不符。故选A项。2.D细节理解题。由第四段中的 “Steuben was born in Prussia.he was responsibl
38、e for writing the armys Revolutionary War Drill Manual”可知,Steuben编写了独立战争操练手册。故选D项。3.B推理判断题。由倒数第二段可知,除了寒冷的天气,福吉谷一直都很潮湿、多雪。此外,食物匮乏,几乎没有什么保暖的衣服、鞋子和毯子。他们住的木屋拥挤、寒冷、潮湿,使得疾病很容易传播。在福吉谷的10,000名士兵中,有2,500人在春末之前死去,其中大部分死于疾病。可见,福吉谷气候恶劣,环境艰苦。故选B项。4.D细节理解题。由最后一段可知,在福吉谷度过冬天之后,在华盛顿的领导下,一支纪律更好、训练有素、实力更强、士气高昂的军队,于177
39、8年6月19日离开。九天后,他们在新泽西州的蒙茅斯战役中首次战胜了英国。可见,经过福吉谷严冬的磨练,大陆军变成了一支更强大的军队。故选D项。.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。文章以时间顺序展示了英语从古英语到现代英语的演变。1.C分析第二段可知,本段承接第一段,说明另外两次入侵英国对英语产生的影响。故选C。2.D由后文可知,此处说明法国入侵者给英语带来了新的词汇。后文的 The words “parliament” “jury” “justice” and others与D项中的many words对应。the Norman rulers同时出现在D项和设空处后面一句,也是该题的提示。3.B设空处前
40、面提到了a Roman religion,后文提到了Latin,B项将二者结合起来,起到承上启下的作用。4.F根据下文的the year 1476和the year 1500可知,本段讲了英语随时间的发展, F项“英语有点像不断成长的活的东西”符合本段主旨。5.E由上文可知,印刷术进入英国以后起到了很大的作用,故此处强调印刷术对推动英语和教育传播的作用,E项中It指的就是上文的The printing。.One possible version:Paragraph 1:No one spoke of her going back, and I was like an ant on a hot
41、griddle(平底煎锅). But I was anxious to start my life of Japanese luxury, so one evening I worked up my courage. “When will you go back to Japan, Grandma? Will you take me?” I asked shyly. Though a bit surprised, she looked up from her embroidery, staring lovingly at me. “No, I live here now. But why do
42、 you want to leave?” So I told her about those stories. She smiled, stroking my head, and explained. Her great-grandfather did have much wealth, but the war destroyed everything. Now that my grandfather had passed away, she wished to remain here with her family.Paragraph 2:My dreams of a luxurious l
43、ife had been broken.At first so disappointed was I that I even locked myself in the room, crying for quite a while. Then suddenly the fact that Grandma was staying with us swept my sadness away. I had tried to make her love me so that I could join her in Japan. I soon understood that I didnt need the wealth of Japan. My grandmother had given me far greater riches right here at home.
