22、(选修8Unit4).【解题导语】本文是议论文。文章论述了书法教育的重要性。1.D细节理解题。由第二段中的“Icantreadthis.”可知,该学生不会读草书。2.B细节理解题。由第四段中的“JohnHancockswassorobustandoriginal.Itisaworkofart.”可知,约翰汉考克的签名得到了高度评价,200多年后仍被一家同名保险公司用作标识。3.B词义猜测题。由上下文可知,受预算的影响,学校常放弃音乐和艺术课,却保留危险的足球课。如果草书成为另外一个课程牺牲品,那对学生会是一大损失。故画线词的意思应该是“放弃”。4.C推理判断题。由最后一段“Thankyou,M
23、rs.Shaw,forseeingsomuchinmyhandwriting.Ineededthatpush.”可推断,老师表扬作者的话令作者很受鼓舞。.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者上大二期间,跟着一位国际大师学习思维棋。作者不仅学到了下棋的技巧,而且也学到了超越课堂的生活技巧。1.B根据上文提到的“afreecourse”和下文的“whodoesntwantto2afewdollars”可知,作者也想省钱,所以急于接受这个主意。jumpat“急于接受”符合语境。putforward“提出”;tryout“试验”;turndown“拒绝”都与语境不符。2.C根据上文提到的“offer
24、ingafreecourse”可知,此处应填save,意为“节省”。3.A上文作者提到他总是想学棋,结合前面表达让步关系的连词词组evenif可知,此处填excited。beexcitedabout“对感到兴奋”。4.D根据下文的“Hewasaninternationalgrandmaster.”可知,此处指的是作者的指导老师,所以选D项。5.D指导老师是国际大师,这就“意味着”作者会跟着下棋最好者之一学习,所以选D项。6.C见上题解析。fastest“最快的”;easiest“最容易的”;rarest“最罕见的”都不符合语境。7.B此处表达作者当时的急切心情:迫不及待想见到那位老师,所以选B
25、项。8.D根据上文的“aformergraduatereturningtoteach”以及下文的“.nogameforhim;hemeantbusiness.”可知,此处指的是他的这份工作。9.Cmakeitclearthat.“说明白;讲明白”,可看作是固定句式。10.B根据下文的“wehadtowriteapaper.(我们必须要写一篇论文)”可知,此处指的是“通过这门课程”,所以选B项。attend“上(课)”;skip“逃(课)”;observe“观察”都不符合语境。11.C根据下文的“toourfutureprofessions”可知,此处为“apply.to.”短语,意为“把应用到
26、上”。12.A句意:我们需要写一篇如何计划把课上学到的东西应用到未来的职业中,最后应用到我们的生活中。根据句意可知选A项。eventually“最后”;naturally“自然地”;directly“直接地”;normally“正常地”。13.C文章第一句中的“.Iwastoldthattheeducationdepartmentwasofferingafreecourse.”中有提示。此处为原词复现。14.B根据上文“.learnedlifelessonsthathaveservedmewellbeyondthe.”中的“lifelessons”可知,所以选B项。15.A根据指代关系可知,此
27、处的he指的是作者的指导老师Ashley,所以选A项。16.D根据下文提到的“whenyouplaychess”可知,此处指下棋的技巧,所以选D项。17.Bmakedecisions“做决定”。此处意为“下棋最重要的技巧是做决定”。grade“分数”;impression“印象”;comment“评论”。18.A根据空格后面的宾语“asituation”可知,此处指“分析局势”。analyze“分析”符合语境。19.D上文提到要分析局势,判断对手在做什么,因此要在你所有的选择中评估出最佳的一步。evaluate“评估”符合语境。20.A根据下文的“asajournalist”可知,作者现在是记
28、者。由此判断,此处填role,意为“角色”。desire“欲望;愿望”;concern“关心”;behavior“行为”都与语境不符。.【解题导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了中国科学院院士郭华东发表评论文章,呼吁各国家充分利用“地球大数据”,携手共建“数字丝绸之路”。1.the考查冠词。makethebestof表示“充分利用”,是固定搭配,故填the。2.who考查定语从句。空处所填词引导非限制性定语从句,指代人,并在从句中做主语,故用who。3.sharing考查非谓语动词。所填的词在that引导的从句中做主语,表示一般性动作,所以用动词-ing形式。4.environments考查名
29、词。根据后面的are可知此处要用名词的复数形式,故填environments。5.accurate考查形容词。空处所填词与reliable和timely并列,修饰scientificobservations,故用形容词accurate。6.is考查动词的时态和主谓一致。此处说的是现在的客观情况,故用一般现在时;主语为“acombinationof.”,谓语要用第三人称单数形式,故填is。7.wasset考查动词的时态和语态。由in2016可知,谓语动词要用一般过去式;which(指代先行词theDigitalBeltandRoadProgram)与setup之间是动宾关系,故用被动语态,所以填
30、wasset。8.with考查介词。teamupwith意为“与合作或一起工作”,故填with。9.toimprove考查非谓语动词。空处所填词做表语,表示目的,所以填动词不定式toimprove。10.sincerely考查副词。空处所填词修饰谓语动词,故要用副词sincerely。.DearMs.Li,Imveryhappyto have you as our teacher.As the world is becoming a global village,English is getting more orand more important,so mastering English
31、means seeseeing the world through a new window.My English is just OK and the two main problems in my study isare that I feel it difficult to learn words by heart,and that I often feel nervouslynervous when speaking English.I dare not speak English in front of the native speakers.I really hope that you can give me a good advice on whathow to memorize new words.Another suggestion is to give us more chancechances to practice speaking,for most of the classmates are not good at spoken English.I believe we can make much progress in English under hisyour help.Yours,Li Hua8
