    【答案】

    【1】where

    【2】surrounding

    【3】regardless

    【4】ranked

    【5】sits

    【6】location

    【7】beaches

    【8】to

    【9】a

    【10】taking

    【解析】

    这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了西班牙第二大城市巴塞罗那，这座城市有着悠久而有趣的历史，今天在金融、娱乐、国际贸易和旅游领域扮演着重要的角色。在巴塞罗那度假是一个伟大的决定，一个没有人会后悔的决定，就像我一样。

    【1】考查定语从句。此处为非限定性定语从句修饰先行词cities，且先行词在从句中做地点状语，故用关系副词where。故填where。

    【2】考查名词。beautiful为形容词修饰名词surrounding，表示“美丽的环境”。故填surrounding。

    【3】考查副词。句意：巴塞罗那的城市和美丽的周边地区几乎为每个人提供了一些东西，不管他们的兴趣或背景。根据句意表示“不管”短语为regardless of。故填regardless。

    【4】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，rank在句中作非谓语动词，与逻辑主语Barcelona构成被动关系，故用过去分词。故填ranked。

    【5】考查动词时态。此处描述客观事实用一般现在时，主语为The city，故谓语动词用第三人称单数。故填sits。

    【6】考查名词。上文geographic为形容词修饰名词location，故填location。

    【7】考查名词的数。beach为可数名词，由a lot of修饰应用复数形式。故填beaches。

    【8】考查介词。根据短语a visit to表示“一次去……的参观”。故填to。

    【9】考查冠词。area为可数名词，此处表示泛指应用不定冠词，且unique为辅音音素开头的单词。故填a。

    【10】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少主语，应用动名词短语taking a Barcelona vacation作主语。故填taking。

    当分词做状语的时候，如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系，就使用现在分词做状语；当二者构成被动关系，使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前，就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系，可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。

    如第四小题，分析句子结构可知，rank在句中作非谓语动词，与逻辑主语Barcelona构成被动关系，故用过去分词。故填ranked。

    【题目】阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

    Three boys and three girls were going to the beach. When they boarded the bus, they were carrying sandwiches and wine, dreaming of golden beaches. Suddenly, they noticed Vingo. He sat in front of them, eyes fixed upon a photo, completely in silence.

    Deep into the night, the bus pulled into Howard Johnson’s, a service area, and everybody got off except Vingo. The young people began to wonder about him. When they came back, one of the girls sat beside him and introduced herself. “Want some wine?” she said. He smiled and took a swig from the bottle. He thanked her and became silent again.

    The next morning, they awoke outside another Howard Johnson’s, and this time Vingo went in. The girl insisted that he join them. He ordered black coffee and some cookies. When they returned, the girl sat with Vingo again. After a while, slowly and painfully, he began his story. He had been in prison for the past four years, and now he was going home.

    “Are you married?”

    “I don’t know.”

    “You don’t know?” she said.

    “Well, when I was in prison I wrote to my wife,” he said, “I told her that I was going to be away for a long time, and that if she couldn’t stand it, if the kids kept asking questions, and if it hurt her too much, she could just forget me. I’d understand. ‘Get a new guy.’ I said. She’s a wonderful woman. I told her she didn’t have to write me. And she didn’t. Not for three and a half years.”

    “And you’re going home now, not knowing?”

    “Yeah. Well, last week, when I was sure the parole (假释) was coming through, I wrote her again. We used to live in Brunswick, and there’s a big oak (橡树) tree just as you come into town. I told her that if she didn’t have a new man and if she’d take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and I’d get off and come home．If she didn’t want me, forget it — no handkerchief and I’d go on through.”

    “Wow,” the girl exclaimed, “wow.”

    She told the others, and soon all of them were in it.

    【题目】 You can take fish oil. You can invest in a language class. or some hours of exercise every week. There are countless ways to improve your memory and cognitive functioning(认知功能). You know, the brain-training industry is expected to reach $ 8 billion by 2022. But the cheapest, easiest and most time-tested way to sharpen your brain is right in front of your face. That's why moms are always on their kids' cases to turn off the TV and pick up a good book. But there's something astonishing about how it can make it.

    The most basic effect occurs in the area associated with language reception. Processing written material - from the letters to the words to the sentences to the stories themselves - takes your attention to interpret the information. Typically, when you read, you have more time to think, judge and even criticize. And the very nature of such an ordinary activity encourages the brain to work harder and better, deepening your understanding of your course and your future career.

    And the benefits of reading continue long after you've put down that great book. It is clarified that some of those benefits last for five days. We call that a shadow activity, almost like a muscle memory - that means, even if you are a retired sportsman now, some skills can still be stored in your memory. That means the language part of the brain would get a workout from reading.

    What if you are a poor, or even a dyslexic, reader who feels as if you’ll never be able to read enough to get these benefits? A book can fix that problem too! According to a study, one hundred hours of remedial(补救的) reading classes significantly improved the quality of the brains' white matter. where information is processed. So turn off your phone and your computer, set aside a good hour or two - and just read on a regular basis.

    【1】The text is mainly written to

    A.show the power of knowledgeB.persuade people to read regularly

    【2】What does the underlined “such an ordinary activity” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

    A.Judging.B.Thinking.C.Learning.D.Reading.

    A.Reading has a long-time influence.B.Books are needed if you want to graduate.

    C.The retired sportsmen have good memories.D.Reading a lot is beneficial to one' s muscles.

    【4】For whom is the text mainly intended?

    【题目】 The Mogao Caves of Dunhuang, a treasure house of art of China, has been spanning over 1,000 years. The art inside here covers more than ten major genres, such as architecture, stucco sculpture, wall paintings, silk paintings, calligraphy woodblock printing, embroidery, literature, music and dance, and popular entertainment. But all these only existed because of one man’s vision.

    In 366 A.D., a monk named Le Zun looked across the river at dawn and saw a thousand Buddhas appear on the golden cliff face of Mingsha mountain along the old Silk Road. The caves were then built by monks and mostly sponsored by people such as wealthy merchants, foreign dignitaries, as well as Chinese emperors.

    But when trade in the Silk Road stopped, Dunhuang was soon forgotten and eventually, the Mogao caves were abandoned. The site however was still used as a place of worship by the local people of the 20th century when there was renewed awareness in its presence once more.

    Most of the discoveries came from a Chinese Taoist monk named Wang Yuanlu who appointed himself as the guardian. The caves at that time were badly ignored, but Monk Wang recognized their value and instituted a program of restoration, funded by whatever donations he could gather.

    He then made one of the great discoveries in Chinese archaeology: an amazing cache, of over 50,000 documents and paintings, which had been hidden in Mogao Cave #17. The cave #17 came to be known as the Library Cave, which was walled up sometime early in the 11th century. A number of theories have been proposed as the reason for sealing the cave. One theory was that the cave had become a waste storeroom for precious, damaged and used documents and holy equipment and then sealed perhaps when the place came under threat. Another suggestion is that the cave was simply used as a book storehouse for documents which accumulated over a century and a half, then sealed up when it became full. Others suggested that the monks hurriedly hid the documents in advance of an attack by invaders.

    【1】What is the second paragraph mainly about?

    A.The legend of Mogao Caves.B.The end of the old Silk Road.

    C.The discovery of Mogao Caves.D.The development of the Silk Road.

    【2】What did Wang Yuanlu do to restore the caves?

    A.He evaluated their value.B.He raised donations in different ways.

    C.He sent guards to protect them.D.He persuaded government to do repairs.

    【3】What does “walled up” in the last paragraph mean?

    A.Sealed.B.Built.

    C.Hidden.D.Discovered.

    【4】Why is Mogao Cave #17 considered a great discovery?

    A.It used to be a library for monks.B.It stored valuable historical materials.

    C.It had a history of over 1000 years.D.It was deserted for mysterious reasons.
