【解析】
本文属于说明文,介绍中国结的历史、中国结的意义以及当今的受欢迎程度。
【1】考查连词。句意:中国结是一种传统的民间艺术,简单却又富有吸引力。根据本句前后两个词simple以及attractive,描述中国结的两个不同的方面,意思相对,故用but。
【2】考查副词。句意:中国结历史可以追溯到周朝,在唐宋时期得以完全发展,到明清时期,广泛流行。修饰形容词popular作状语,故用副词形式widely。
【3】考查关系代词。句意:中国结是由五彩缤纷的丝线构成,能够给人带来好运。通过分析本句,is made of colorful silk thread作定语从句修饰先行词knot,关系词在从句中作主语,故用关系代词that/which。
【4】考查介词。句意:中国结通常表达愿望,比如幸福、兴旺、爱以及辟邪。通过分析句子结构,include在本句中后定语修饰wishes,与后面的名词形成介宾结构,故用including。
【5】考查动词时态。句意:中国结这个名字就暗示了每个结都是由一条丝线打结而成,根据不同形状赋予不同的名字。通过分析,indicate在句中knot的谓语,与主语构成主谓逻辑关系,主语为单数,文章介绍中国结,用一般现在时,故用一般现在时的第三人称单数形式indicates。
【6】考查介词。句意:通过巧妙的把中国结与其他东西相结合,一个独特又带有美好愿望的中国结就产生了。此处为结构combine…with …(把……与……相结合),故用with。
【7】考查动词时态和语态。句意:句意:通过巧妙的把中国结与其他东西相结合,一个独特又带有美好愿望的中国结就产生了。通过分析,本句关于中国结的制作,故用一般现在时,同时form在句中作knot的谓语,形成动宾关系,用被动语态,因此用is formed。
【8】考查动词不定式。句意:值得说明的是,用于竞选举办2008年奥运会所用的图标的灵感就是来源于中国结。通过分析,host作后置定语修饰bid,又与the 2008 Olympics形成主谓关系,故用主动形式,因此用to host。
【9】考查形容词。句意:如今人们喜欢中国结是因为它特别的形式、丰富的颜色以及包含的美好愿望。character修饰form作定语,故用其形容词形式characteristic。
【10】考查名词。句意:中国结通常用于家里或者车里悬挂装饰品,或者首饰比如戒指、耳环、手链以及项链。通过分析句子,decorate被a hanging修饰,作as的宾语,故用名词形式decoration。

【题目】 Scotland’s wildlife faces a “long march” north to escape global warming and there will be losses along the way, Scotland’s leading conservation body has warned.
Scottish Natural Heritage is to explore ways of helping the country’s animals and plants on their epic (史诗般的) journey, so they can spread from areas that become too warm. too wet or too dry over the coming years. Roads, railways, towns and large open areas represent physical barriers for many kinds of wildlife. but a range of methods can be used to overcome them. Potential solutions include tunnels under or ecoducts (生态桥) over roads and railways; networks of green spaces; increased areas of species-friendly mixed forests and a landscape that is generally more wildlife friendly.
SNH announced the programme — called The Long March. They will initially concentrate on“pinch points” where there is little space for wildlife. The programme takes its name from the “Long March” made by the Chinese Red Army in the 1930s. “Climate change is going to push a whole range of our species north, and it won’t be an easy journey,” SNH’s land use group manager, Duncan said. “The challenges facing our wildlife are similar, although the barriers may be railway lines, motorways and housing estates.
“We need to give wildlife the best possible chance of moving into new climate space by creating stepping stones of suitable habitat in the landscape. By doing this we will give at least some species the opportunity to respond to the warming climate.”
【1】Where will the wildlife move to start a new life?
A.Warmer areas.B.More wet places.
C.Colder places.D.The forest.
【2】What are the possible solutions to the wildlife on their journey?
A.Railways lines.B.Housing estates.
C.Tunnels.D.Motorways.
【3】What can we learn about the wildlife from the last paragraph?
A.The long journey is the best possible chance.
B.Protecting the present habitat is the best way.
C.Moving into new climate space will become extinet.
D.Building stepping stones of suitable habitat is necessary.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Wildlife in DangerB.Escape Routes in trouble
C.Wildlife Faced with Global WarmingD.Escape Routes to North Planed for Wildlife

【题目】请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意:请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横在线。每个空格只填1个单词。
Today and every day we are the targets of salespeople, marketers, advertisers, fundraisers and politicians trying to persuade us to buy something, do something or think a certain way. Over the years, they’ve learned a lot about which features to build into a communication to increase its success. But, by concentrating on the message itself, they’ve missed a crucial component of the process. Research done in the last 15 years shows that the best persuasion is achieved through good presuasion: the practice of arranging for people to agree with a message before they know what’s in it.
Presuasion works by focusing people’s preliminary(开始的) attention on a selected concept—let’s say softness—which encourages them to overvalue related opportunities that immediately follow. In one study, visitors to an online sofa store were sent to a site that illustrated either soft clouds or small coins in the background of its landing page. Those who saw the soft clouds were more likely to prefer soft, comfortable sofas for purchase, whereas those who saw the small amounts of money preferred inexpensive models.
A following study showed the primitiveness of the presuasive mechanism. Subjects became three times more likely to help a researcher who “accidentally” dropped some items if, immediately before, they’d been exposed to images of figures standing together in a friendly pose. If this tripling of helpfulness doesn’t seem remarkable enough, consider that the subjects were 18 months old — hardly able to reason or review or reflect.
Long before scientists started studying the process, a few notable communicators had an intuitive understanding of it.
In February 2015, the financial investor Warren Buffett had a problem. It was 50 years since he had taken control of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., guiding it to amazing levels of value, along with his brilliant partner Charlie Munger. Many investors were worried that, because Buffett and Munger were getting older, these levels couldn’t be maintained in the future, perhaps making it time to sell Berkshire stock.
To respond to these concerns, Buffett wrote a letter to shareholders in which he described various reasons for confidence in Berkshire’s continuing profitability. But, before the description of strengths, he declared with characteristic sincerity that what he was about to state was ‘what I would say to my family today if they asked me about Berkshire’s future.” The result was a flood of favorable reaction to the letter as well as a per-share increase for the year of nearly five times that of the S&P.
With considerable success, practitioners of social influence have always placed persuasive prods(刺激)—small gifts, emotional draw, last-chance opportunities—inside their appeals. Perhaps because of that success, they’ve mostly missed an accompanying truth. For maximum impact, it’s not only what you do; it’s also what you do just before you do what you do.
Passage outline | Supporting details |
A 【1】 in communication | People often fail to realize that the secret to 【2】 people over doesn’t lie in the message itself, but in the key moment before it is delivered. |
Meaning of pre-suasion | It’s a practice where people are made to 【3】 to a message before it is conveyed. |
Studies about pre-suasion | ●When it comes to buying sofas, customers’ 【4】 is related to the background he saw before. ●Having received some 【5】 to friendly pictures, subjects are ore likely to do others a 【6】. |
A typical 【7】 | ●Despite Berkshire’s success, investors intended to sell the stock, 【8】 continuing profitability. ●In the letter 【9】 to the concerns, Buffett got what he would say to his family across to investors, for which he got all credit. |
Conclusion | Practitioners should keep in mind that pre-suasion can enhance the power of 【10】. |

【题目】 Stan Lee, co-founder of the Marvel Universe(漫威宇宙) and co-creator of many of its most popular superheroes, died at the age of 95.
Lee was born Stanley Martin Lieber in New York in 1992. As a son of working-class Jewish immigrants from Romania, times were hard and he lived with his family in a shabby single-bedroom apartment. After graduating from high school at 16, Lieber landed a job as an assistant at Timely Comics. By the early 1940s, he was a temporary editor for the company. It was at this time that he began using his pen name--Stan Lee. In 1947, two years after returning from serving for the U.S. Army, Lee married his wife, Joan. The two began their 70-year marriage and had two children.
In the late 1950s, DC Comics breathed new life into its classic superhero and experienced a significant success with its updated version of the Flash, and later with super-team the Justice League(正义联盟) of America.
To compete against DC Comics, Lee was given the task of creating their own group of superheroes. In 1961, Timely Comics changed its name into Marvel Comics after Atlas Comics, and that November saw the debut(首次亮相) of the Fantastic Four. Lee’s later famous and lasting creations of comic-book superheroes included Spider-Man, the Hulk, Thor, Iron Man and the X-men.
Over the course of his career, Lee was an icon of Marvel Comics. As a writer and editor and, at various points, both the publisher and vice president of Marvel Comics, Lee not only introduced interesting characters to the industry, but changed the way that comic books came together. He also created a cooperative workflow between writers and artists, which became known as the “Marvel Method”. Lee received a National Medal of Arts in 2008 for his innovations that revolutionized (=completely changed) American comic books.
