B.Thecoralsreefs.C.Theyoungfish. D.Theresearchers.答案C解析代詞指代題。依據(jù)畫線單詞前面的“Youngfishlistenforthesesoundswhen...”可知,此處的“they”指的就是“youngfish”。35.What’sthemainideaofthetext?A.Healthyfishhelprecoverthedamagedcoralreefsbyswimming.B.Peoplereduceenvironmentalpollutiontosavedyingcoral.C.Scientistsfindanewwaytoprotecttheoceanenvironmentandsealife.D.Researchersuseunderwatersoundstofightcoralreefdamage.答案D解析主旨大意題。第一段提到,科學(xué)家發(fā)覺,在水下播放聲音可以使魚返回到珊瑚礁遭到嚴峻破壞的地區(qū)。結(jié)合其次題的分析可知,科學(xué)家在試驗中發(fā)覺了播放健康的珊瑚礁發(fā)出的聲音可以有效地挽救即將死去的珊瑚。由此可知,文章的主要內(nèi)容是探討人員運用水下聲音來削減珊瑚礁受到的破壞。其次節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2.5分,滿分12.5分)依據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。HowtoStartaConversationwithSomeoneYouDon’tKnowIntroduceYourselfIt’snotnecessarytobecleverwhenyouintroduceyourself.Simplyfocusonbeinggenuineandsincere.Whenyouapproachtheotherpersontostarttheconversation,givehimawarmsmileandclearlystateyourname.36Remembertospeakataregularpace,takingcarenottospeaktooquicklyorslowly,sothattheotherpersonwillhavenodifficultyunderstandingyou.

答案與解析【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了機器人割草機的優(yōu)點。56.designed考查非謂語動詞。設(shè)空處作后置定語修飾robotlawnmowers,design與robotlawnmowers之間是邏輯上的動賓關(guān)系,且design所表示的動作已發(fā)生,故填designed。57.being考查非謂語動詞。此處是with復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)作狀語,因globalwarming與be之間是邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系,且be所表示的狀態(tài)與謂語動詞所表示的狀態(tài)同時存在,故填being。58.quietly考查副詞。設(shè)空處修飾謂語動詞work,故填副詞quietly。59.wasfound考查語態(tài)。由Aftercarefulassessment可知,此處用一般過去時,又因noise與find之間是被動關(guān)系,故填wasfound。60.toreturn考查非謂語動詞。warnsb/sthtodosth意為“提示某人/某物做某事”。61.the考查冠詞。ontheotherhand意為“另一方面”。62.or/otherwise考查連詞。設(shè)空處連接兩個分句,表示“否則,要不然”,故填or或otherwise。63.that/which考查定語從句。設(shè)空處引導(dǎo)限制性定語從句修飾先行詞items,且在從句中作主語,故填that或which。64.beneficial考查形容詞。設(shè)空處作表語,意為“有益的,有幫助的”,故填beneficial。65.in考查介詞。incomfort意為“舒適地”。第四部分寫作(共兩節(jié),滿分40分)第一節(jié)(滿分15分)假定你是李華,你的英國摯友John來信詢問中國人過春節(jié)的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣。請你結(jié)合自己家鄉(xiāng)的實際狀況給他回信,內(nèi)容包括:1.春節(jié)的簡介;2.過節(jié)的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣;3.邀請他來中國過春節(jié)。留意:1.詞數(shù)80左右;2.可以適當(dāng)增加細微環(huán)節(jié),以使行文連貫;3.信的開頭已為你寫好,不計入總詞數(shù)。DearJohn,I’mgladyouareinterestedintheChineseSpringFestival.
