D．Entertainment.B [推理判断题。通读全文可知，这是一篇有关气候变化对小麦产量影响的文章，由此可推知，本文可能出现在报纸的科学版块，故选B。]B(2020·“四省八校”第二次教学质量检测)FiressweepingacrosstheAmazonrainforestthisyearhavebeenahottopicasscientistsandenvironmentalgroupsareworriedthattheywillworsentheclimatechangecrisisandthreatenbiodiversity(生物多样性)．Asthelargestrainforestintheworld，theAmazonrainforestisoftencalled“thelungsoftheworld”．Itisalsohometoabout3millionspeciesofplantsandanimals，and1millionnativepeople.Thevastareasoftherainforestplayanimportantroleintheworld'secosystembecausetheyabsorbheatinsteadofitbeingreflectedbackintotheatmosphere.Theyalsostorecarbondioxideandproduceoxygen，ensuringthatlesscarbondioxideisreleased，mitigatingtheeffectsof\nclimatechange.“Anyforestdestroyedisathreattobiodiversityandpeople，”ThomasLovejoy，anecologistatGeorgeMasonUniversitytoldNationalGeographic.“Theoverwhelmingthreatisthatalotofcarbondioxidegoesintotheatmosphere，”hestressed.“Inthemidstoftheglobalclimatecrisis，wecannotaffordmoredamagetoamajorsourceofoxygenandbiodiversity.TheAmazonrainforestmustbeprotected，”U.N.SecretaryGeneralAntónioGuterressaid.DatafromtheNationalInstituteforSpaceResearch(INPE)showthatthenumberofforestfiresinBrazilquicklyincreasedby82percentfromJanuarytoAugustthisyearcomparedtothesameperiodlastyear.Atotalof71,497forestfireswereregisteredinthecountryinthefirsteightmonthsof2019，upfrom39,194inthesameperiodin2018，INPEsaid.“WeestimatethattheforestareasintheBrazilianAmazonrainforesthavedecreasedbybetween20and30percentcomparedtothelast12months，”CarlosNobre，aresearcherattheUniversityofSaoPaulo，toldGermanbroadcasterDeutscheWelle.Brazilownsabout60percentoftheAmazonrainforest，whosedegradation(恶化)couldhavesevereconsequencesforglobalclimateandrainfall.Theextentofthearearuinedbyfireshasyettobedetermined，buttheemergencyhastranscended(超出)Brazil'sborders，reachingPeruvian，ParaguayanandBolivianregions.【语篇解读】 科学家和环保组织担心席卷亚马逊雨林的火灾将加剧气候变化危机，威胁生物多样性。今年，位于巴西的部分亚马逊雨林火灾数量显著增加。5．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“mitigating”inParagraph2probablymean?A．Increasing. B．Relieving.C．Ignoring. D．Improving.B [词义猜测题。根据第二段第三、四句可知，大片的热带雨林在世界生态系统中扮演着重要的角色，因为它们吸收热量，而不是将热量反射回大气中；此外，热带雨林还储存二氧化碳并制造氧气，以确保更少的二氧化碳被释放。由此可知，热带雨林能够减轻气候变化带来的影响。故可推知画线词的含义与“relieving”的含义相近，故选B。]6．WhatcanwelearnfromThomas'sandAntónio'swords?A．Thebiodiversitymakestherainforestunique.B．Therainforestfiresresultinseriousconsequences.C．Theglobalclimatecrisisbringsmorerainforestfires.D．Thedryweatherleadstotherainforestfires.B [推理判断题。根据第三段中Thomas所说的话“Anyforestdestroyedisathreat\ntobiodiversityandpeople”以及António所说的话“Inthemidstoftheglobalclimatecrisis，wecannotaffordmoredamagetoamajorsourceofoxygenandbiodiversity”可知，Thomas认为任何森林的破坏都是对生物多样性和人们的威胁，António认为在全球气候危机的情况下，我们承担不起氧气和生物多样性的主要来源(即亚马逊雨林)被更多破坏的后果。由此可推知，两人意在表明，雨林大火导致了严重的后果。故选B。]【干扰项分析】 根据上述分析可知，两人并没有强调生物多样性成就了雨林的独特性，故A项表述错误。7．WhydoestheauthorlistthenumbersinParagraph4?A．Toprovetheimportanceoftherainforest.B．Toshowthereasonforforestfires.C．Toexplaintheprocessoftheresearch.D．Topresentthereductioninrainforestareas.D [推理判断题。根据第四段第一句中的“thenumberofforestfiresinBrazilquicklyincreased”和第三句中的“theforestareasintheBrazilianAmazonrainforesthavedecreasedbybetween20and30percent”可推知，第四段列举数字是为了说明，亚马逊雨林由于森林火灾的影响，其面积减少了一些。故选D。]8．Whatdoesthispassagemainlytalkabout?A．Theclimatechangecrisisisworsening.B．Theforestareasareonthedecline.C．“Thelungsoftheworld”isburning.D．Theworld'secosystemisunderattack.C [主旨大意题。文章第一段为文章的总述部分，表明本年席卷亚马逊雨林的火灾将加剧气候变化危机，威胁生物多样性；第二至第五段介绍了亚马逊雨林火灾对生物多样性以及森林面积等的影响，其中第四段又突出强调亚马逊雨林火灾数量显著增加。由此可知C项符合题意。]Ⅱ.完形填空(2020·兰州市高三诊断考试)Iwasstandinginaclassofwild14yearoldgirlsastheythrewpaperandhowled(大声叫喊)withlaughter.Theywouldn't__1__me.Iwas23andIdidn'tknowwhatIwasdoing.Ineverwantedto__2__.Iwantedtobeawriter.ButwhenIarrivedinLondon，theywereshortofteachers，notwriters.Myeffortstoteachwere__3__.Whenthebellfinallyrang，Irushedtothestaffroom，redwithanger.Theotherteachersweren't__4__.“That's4B，theworstclassinschool，”onesaid.Idreaded(害怕)ournext__5__，butIcouldn'tgiveup.Ineededthe\njob.So，I__6__formallessons.Instead，Ibrought__7__forclassdiscussions.Oneoftheliveliesttalkswasabouttheargumentstheyhadwiththeirparents.Theypaidattentionandsharedabouttheirlives.Iwas__8__.SoIhadthemwriteaboutthemselves.Mostwroteaboutfamilieswithlittlemoneyandbigproblems.Astimewenton，theiressaysbecamea__9__betweenus.Iadmiredtheirhumor，toughnessandinsight，andIthoughtthey__10__myinterestintheirlives.ThemusicalMyFairLadywasplayingintheWestEnd，buttheyhadneverseena__11__stageperformance.TheylivedjustafewsubwaystopsfromtheWestEnd，butnonehadeverbeenthere.Iaskedifthey'dliketoseethemusical.TheythoughtIwas__12__.Noteacherhadever__13__takingthemout.Afewweekslater,4BandIweresittingina__14__.Theylovedthemusic，thecostumesandthecharacters.Itwasthe__15__oftheiryear，andtheytalkedaboutitfordays.Neartheendofthesemester，someoneknockedonthedoorofthestaffroom.Thetwomostrebellious(叛逆的)girlsin4Bwerethere—withflowers.IwasproudtoknowIhad__16__theirlives.Ienjoyedteachingandgettingalongwith__17__.WhenIreturnedtoAustraliaseveralyearslater，Istillwantedtobea__18__.Forthefirsttimeinmylife，Istopped__19__andstartedwriting.MyfirststorywastitledMyFairLadies.Teachingwasn'tthe__20__ofmywritingcareer；itwasthebeginning.【语篇解读】

这是一篇说明文。文章用几个实验向我们证明了商店里商品的摆放位置，特别是结账处附近的商品摆放会影响我们购物的选择。所以健康部门和专家都呼吁将健康食品放在这些地方，提高大家对健康食品的关注度。1．C [空格位于首段最后一句。空格前一句句意为：店内商品的摆放位置也会影响购物的选择。选项C中的it与上句话中的“Thelocation”可形成指代关系，并且“makeorbreaksomehealthyeatinghabits”与文章主题HealthySee,HealthyDo(看到的健康的，买的就是健康的)呼应。故选C。]2．G [空格位于段中。空格前句意为：结账处摆放的商品经常是糖或者咸的零食。空格后的两个举例都是强调如果购物者看到的经常是健康食品的话，他们会更多的选择健康食品。由此可推知，空格处应该是强调换一下摆放在结账处的食品的重要性。选项G中的“simplyswappinginhealthieroptionscanchangecustomerbehavior(简单地将垃圾食品换成健康一点的食品能改变顾客的购物行为)”与这一语境呼应，起到承上启下的作用。故选G。]3．E [空格位于段首。由本段中的“aresearchscientistatthedepartment”可知，前边应该出现过department，选项E中的“DepartmentofHealth”与之呼应。故选E。]4．F [空格位于段中。分析文章结构，第四段和第五段主要讲述Adjoian和她同事们做的试验。空格前句意为：为了证明把健康食品放在收银处，是不是影响拥挤的市区内的顾客的购买行为，他们选择了三家超市。空格后句意为：他们连续三周每天分六次每次三小时记录购买情况。可以推知，中间一句话应该是实验的设置方式。选项F“Theyreplacedcandiesandcookieswithfruitsandnutsnearthecheckoutcounter.(他们把收银处附近的糖和饼干换成了水果和坚果。)”与这个试验的目的一致。故选F。]5．B [空格位于段中。这一段讲述Adjoian和她同事们做的试验的结果。由空格后的“Thesefindings”可知，前边至少有两项发现。空格前句意为：在那些在收银处买了东西的人当中，站在健康食品队列的人比站在不健康食品队列的人买了多于两倍的东西。这是一个发现，选项B中的“Theyboughtunhealthyfoods40percentless\noften.(他们买不健康食品的概率也降低了40%。)”与上一句句式接近，并且表达的是与上一句意思一致的一个发现，又与下句中的“Thesefindings”呼应。故选B。]Ⅲ.语法填空(2020·抚顺模拟)Lastweek,anactivitycalled“BeijingoperaenteringCampus”washeldinourschool.Inthemorning,twoartists，1.________actingskillswerewonderful,cametoourschoolasplanned.When2.________(reach)theroom,theyweregivenawarmwelcome.Afteracasualchat,theartists3.________(invite)tothehalltogiveusadetailedintroductiontoBeijingopera.Withgreat4.________(expect),welistened5.________(attentive)andlearnedthattherearefivemainrolesinBeijingopera,andthefacialmaskoneachofthemtellsthecharacteristicsoftherole.TohelpusbetterunderstandBeijingopera,theartistalsoshowedusseveralclassic6.________(example)ofsingingandacting.Afterthelecture,wecouldn'twaittostartthefollowingtrainingsessions.Oneartistshowedushowtopaintthefacialmaskonourface,andtheothertaughtusthetypicalmovesstep7.________step.Underthe8.________(patience)guidanceoftheartists,welearnedthebasicskillsanddevelopedastronginterest.Afterseveralrehearsals,wewerereadytostageascenefromJourneytotheWest.Ontheperformingday,withexcitementandnervousness,IplayedSunWukongwiththeladyartist.Toourgreatdelight,ourperformancewontheapplauseofourschoolmates.Throughthisactivity,I'vefoundBeijingoperaappealing9.________learneditmusttakealongandhardtraining10.________(become)agoodperformer.IamexpectingtospreadBeijingoperatomoreaudiences.【语篇解读】

[考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，reach在句中作非谓语动词，与逻辑主语they构成主动关系，故用现在分词。故填reaching。]3．wereinvited [考查动词时态及语态。本句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，且事情发生在上周应用一般过去时，主语为artists，故谓语动词用复数形式。故填wereinvited。]4．expectation(s) [\n考查名词。句意：带着极大的期待，我们仔细聆听，了解到京剧有五个主要角色，每个角色的面具都有各自的特点。great为形容词修饰名词，故应填expectation，短语withgreatexpectation表示“带着极大的期待”。且expectation为可数名词，前面没有冠词修饰，故也可填复数形式。故填expectation(s)。]5．attentively [考查副词。句意见上题。修饰动词listen应用副词，表示“专注地，仔细地”，故填attentively。]6．examples [考查名词的数。example为可数名词，由several修饰，应用名词复数形式。故填examples。]7．by [考查介词。根据固定短语stepbystep表示“一步一步地，逐步地”，故填by。]8．patient [考查形容词。此处修饰名词guidance应用形容词，表示“耐心的指导”，故填patient。]9．and [考查连词。句意：通过这次活动，我发现京剧很吸引人，并认识到要成为一名优秀的演员必须经过长期艰苦的训练。根据上下文语境可知上下文为承接关系，故填and。]10．tobecome [考查非谓语动词。句意见上题。根据固定句式ittakessb.sometimetodosth.表示“做某事花费某人多少时间”，可知应填不定式。故填tobecome。]Ⅳ.短文改错(2020·天水模拟)OurclassorganizedanactivityonSeptember26th.Itturnedouttobememorableandrewardingexperience.OnSeptember25thwehadaclassmeetingtodiscusswhatwewoulddo,atthatwecommunicatedopenlyandtalkedaboutourownthoughts.Afteraheatedlydiscussion,wemadeupourmindstogotoanursinghomefortheoldtodosomethingforthem.OnSeptember26th,wesetoutearlyinthemorning.Assoonaswegotthere,andwebegantodosomecleaning.Anhourlater,theroomsinthehometakeonanewlook.Thendividingintotwogroups,wegotdownforothertasks.Onegroupamusedtheelderlybypresentanimpressiveperformance.TheothergrouptaughtthosewhowereinterestedinEnglishafewdailyEnglishexpress.Inthecourseoflearning,wewereinspiredbytheirlongingforknowledge.Timepassedunconsciously.Whenlunchtimecame,wehadtosaygoodbyetohim.[答案]
