Ⅰ.閱讀理解
[2021·鄭州模擬]Have you ever heard someone say “You totally look like you're a Jessica” or something similar? People seem to think that they know what kind of person a “Jessica” or a “Michael” looks like. Why is this?
According to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, humans tend to associate people's names with their appearances, and can even guess someone's name based on how they look.
Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, collected thousands of photos of people's faces. They labeled (貼標(biāo)簽于) each photo with four names. Then, they asked volunteers to guess which of the four names was correct.
The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38% of the time. It seems that certain characteristics of faces give them clues about someone's name, Reader's Digest reported.
However, this only worked when the volunteers looked at names from their own culture. In addition, the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people who used nicknames (昵稱) more often than their real names. This may show that a person's appearance is affected by their name only if they use it often.
“This kind of face-name matching happens because of a process of self-fulfilling prophecy (預(yù)言), as we become what other people expect us to become，” Ruth Mayo from Tile university told science news website EurekAlert.
Earlier studies have shown that gender (性別) and race stereotypes (刻板印象) can affect a person's appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names. For example, people tend to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful. They expect them to be “delicate” and “female”， just like the flower they are named for.
1．How is this article developed?
A．By giving examples.　　B．By asking questions.
C．By doing an experiment.
D．By comparing different cases.
2．What can be inferred from the study?
A．Volunteers found it much easier to guess nicknames.
B．Names have different associations in different cultures.
C．Volunteers could guess the characteristics of the interviewees.
D．The people in the photos and volunteers were from the same culture.
3．Why do some people look like their names according to Ruth Mayo?
A．They want to please everyone around them.
B．They don't want to be different from others.
C．They tend to become what others expect them to become.
D．They like to copy famous people who share the same name.
4．What may be the best title for this passage?
A．What Determines Our Names
B．Why We Look Like Our Names
C．How We Get Rid of Our Stereotypes
D．How Stereotypes Affect People's Looks
Ⅰ.閱讀理解
1．C　篇章結(jié)構(gòu)題。本文第一段通過疑問句Why is this？引出話題，第二段介紹了研究結(jié)果，第三段起開始介紹實(shí)驗(yàn)過程及結(jié)果。由此可知這篇文章是通過做一項(xiàng)實(shí)驗(yàn)來展開的。故選C。
2．B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段“However, this only worked when the volunteers looked at names from their own culture.”一句可知這一實(shí)驗(yàn)結(jié)果僅對(duì)于判斷自己文化里的名字有效，因此可知在不同的文化里名字的含義不同。故選B。
3．C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第六段“‘This kind of face-name matching happens because of a process of self-fulfilling prophecy(預(yù)言), as we become what other people expect us to become，’”一句可知臉和名字之間的聯(lián)系是由于自證預(yù)言的結(jié)果，因?yàn)槲覀儠?huì)變成人們期待我們成為的樣子。故選C。
4．B　主旨大意題。本文第一段通過疑問句Why is this？引出話題，文章通過一項(xiàng)實(shí)驗(yàn)證明了一個(gè)很有意思的現(xiàn)象：人們傾向于通過相貌可以判斷一個(gè)人的名字。研究人員認(rèn)為這一現(xiàn)象主要是由于人們對(duì)一些名字形成了刻板的印象。故選B。

After the Gold
Congratulations! You’ve won the gold medal! Stand still while the photo flashes (閃光燈) pop and TV journalists ask how it feels. Thousands of new followers on social media, meanwhile, are waiting for what you have to say.
Then, prepare for a different kind of downhill.
Diann Roffe knows the experience well. The American Alpine ski racer (高山滑雪運(yùn)動(dòng)員) won a gold medal at the 1994 Lillehammer Winter Olympics after winning a silver at the 1992 Albertville Games. She immediately announced her retirement. She was 26, an age when most people have just begun a career.
Joining society at 26 can be tough. A professional athlete’s life is remarkably self-centered. You wake up taking your heart rate. You think of your own workout goals. You write down what you eat. After years of self-focus, if everything works out just right, you win. Most people will never experience a high that high. But there’s a downside.
“It was like being taken up to the highest mountain peak to see the view, and then being brought down, never to be there again,” said Roffe. In the first years after her win, Roffe thought, “Here I am struggling with the masses to make ends meet and get school done, seeking that extraordinary feeling again.”
Roffe’s friend, speed skater Cathy Turner, was the darling after she won a gold at the 1992 Albertville Games. “I woke up every day with a long to-do list,” she recalled her early days after retirement. “It was like, ‘What speech am I giving? What company am I going to address?’ I was Cathy the skater, the Olympian. Then I was Cathy the motivational speaker.”
Turner found it difficult to make a transition out of the sport. She returned to compete at the 1994 Lillehammer Winter Olympics, where she won another gold. She retired again, turned her attention to computers, but soon found herself with marital (婚姻的) troubles. Turner escaped her troubles the only way she knew — she trained for the 1998 Games, where she didn’t win a medal.
If their stories illustrate how difficult post-gold years can be, Roffe and Turner also show why winning athletes often eventually succeed.
“Think of what these people develop!” said California sports psychologist Doug Gardner. “Perseverance. Tenacity in dealing with failure. These skills are very useful in other aspects of life.”
Turner combined her perseverance with her love of computer technology. She finally became a valued database (數(shù)據(jù)庫) manager at a company in New York state. Roffe, 23 years after her retirement, runs a successful business which makes locker (儲(chǔ)物柜) systems for team locker rooms, resorts and gyms.
1. Which of the following statements about Diann Roffe is true?
A. She won her first Olympic gold medal in 1992.
B. She was invited to address many big companies after her retirement.
C. She has taken part in the Olympic Games three times in all.
D. She has become a successful businesswoman.
2. According to the article what is the “downside” of winning Olympic gold medals?
A. Athletes will have many sleepless nights as TV journalists pour in.
B. Athletes will have a hard time deciding what to say to new followers on social media.
C. Athletes will find it challenging to relive such great feelings in daily life.
D. Athletes earn small salaries and most of them will find it hard to make ends meet after retirement.
3. Doug Gardner thinks winning athletes can achieve success in life as well because ______.
A. they focus remarkably well on themselves
B. most of them are very strong and healthy
C. they tend to keep trying despite difficulties
D. they know how to motivate others
4. We can tell from the article that Roffe felt happy after returning from the 2014 Sochi Winter Games because ____.
A. American Alpine ski racers won many gold medals
B. she felt she had finally made a transition out of her sport
C. the U.S.A. team used the products of her company
D. her husband and kids accompanied her to the races
【答案】1. D 2. C 3. C 4. B

How Disney grew its $3 billion Mickey Mouse business — by selling to adults
In March 2019, Gucci began selling a $4,500 purse in the shape of Mickey Mouse’s head. Between the creature’s round black ears is a small handle embossed (凸印) with the word “Gucci.” On the brand’s website, a male model stares seriously into the camera without the slightest trace of irony (諷刺) that he is, in fact, carrying around the head of a children’s cartoon character.
It’s perhaps the most luxurious Mickey Mouse products designed for adults. ___16___ Maybelline created makeup sets with packaging covered in Mickey’s face. Uniqlo made dozens of graphic T-shirts with Mickey in various poses. So as not to miss out on the action, Apple launched $300 Beats headphones that paid homage to (向……致敬) the Mouse.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Mickey Mouse and his friends sold $3 billion in merchandise (周邊商品) in 2018, a figure that includes both adult and children’s products.
This brings up the question: Why would adults wear items decorated with the face of a smiling rodent in the first place? What accounts for the enduring appeal of this anthropomorphized (擬人化的) mouse, while other Disney characters, such as Anna from Frozen, hardly ever appear in adult products?
Mickey Mouse was big business almost as soon as he made his debut (首次亮相) in Walt Disney’s animated short Steamboat Willie (《汽船威利號(hào)》) in 1928. Within five years, Mickey was earning $1 million a year in merchandise sales. These products were largely targeted at children, including stuffed toys, trains, and nursery (托兒所) wallpaper.
Everything changed in the years after World War II. ___17___ For one thing, Mickey was nearly twenty years old, which meant that the first audience, who enjoyed the cartoons as children, were now in their thirties. Disney was willing to transform Mickey into a symbol of innocence in the postwar years, when people were desperate for something hopeful to cling to.
All the marketing worked. In 1947, products featuring Disney characters brought in $100 million in revenue (收益) in merchandise. In addition to kids’ products, many of the items sold were for adults, such as radios and phonographs (留聲機(jī)).
____18____ He made Mickey’s face and body rounder, and eyes larger, like those of a baby. Scientists have shown that adults are more drawn to childlike faces. That look is more likely to subconsciously (潛意識(shí)地) produce a greater level of attachment in the viewer.
____19____ For instance, the company has done everything in its power to ensure that they do not use images of Mickey drinking and smoking.
By and large, though, the symbolism Mickey represents is the one Disney has put forth: that of innocence and positivity. ____20____ In World War II, people used Mickey to help cope with the horrors before them. This might also help explain why Mickey Mouse has been popular over the past few years when many people are experiencing political instability.
A. Over the decades, Disney is always sensitive about how brands portray Mickey when it licenses his face.
B. Why was this effective at getting adults’ attention?
C. This is perhaps why adults seem drawn to him during times of trouble.
D. At that point, demand for products bearing Mickey’s face among adults decreased.
E. But it’s just one of many that has flooded the market.
F. Disney kept developing the character to make him more and more universally appealing.
G. Disney’s goal was clearly to make the character universally known and loved.
【答案】16. E 17. D 18. F 19. A 20. C

（7）考查動(dòng)詞。句意：在家長會(huì)上，盡管有疤痕，但是媽媽的友善和自然的美給人們留下了很好的印象,但是小男孩仍然感到尷尬,躲著每個(gè)人。A. impressed“使印象深刻”；B. surprised“使.....驚訝”；C. excited“使激動(dòng)”；D. comforted“安慰”。根據(jù)“kindness and natural beauty of his mother”可知，在家長會(huì)上，媽媽的友善和自然的美給人們留下了很好的印象。be impressed by固定短語，“ 對(duì)……印象深刻”。故選A。

（9）考查動(dòng)詞。句意：在家長會(huì)上，盡管有疤痕，但是媽媽的友善和自然的美給人們留下了很好的印象,但是小男孩仍然感到尷尬,躲著每個(gè)人。A. hid“隱藏”；B. protected“保護(hù)”；C. kept“保持”；D. stopped“停止”。小孩躲藏起來，怕別人笑話媽媽和自己。hide oneself“把自己藏起來”，故選A。

二、閱讀理解
A
??? My daughters are lovely and attractive. The 4-yearold has big blue eyes and easy laughter. The 7-year old's long strawberry blond hair and sweet smile are already turning the boys' heads. I love everything about these girls. and they know it.
??? But I try not to tell them they' re beautiful. My young daughters are totally innocent about the pressures of being a woman in our society. They know nothing about plastic surgery, diets. "feeling fat", or eating disorders. We adults know all too much about such things and in the face of this cruel reality we tend to start telling our girls,as soon and often as possible, how beautiful they are. Here's the thing. though. What we're also doing is bringing the beauty pressure home to our littlest girls. The more I talk about beauty and looks, even in a positive way. ,the more I'm conveying the importance of those things.
??? However, it doesn't mean I don't praise my girls. Instead of saying "You look beatutiful!" I might say the more specific "Don't you look fancy today!" or "Those colors go so well together. " It means that I treat my daughters not as my little dolls, but as real people who are developing their own sense of self and style. It means that they are in change of how they look.
??? Naturally, I buy most of my girls clothes. But I don't usually manage their outfit （整套衣服）choices. My daughters can go girly with necklaces and head-to-toe pink, or they can choose to give up dresses altogether. Of course we've seen some mismatching, but they own those styles. They never ask if they look pretty, and they walk with an easy confidence that has nothing to do with what l or anyone else will say about how they look. And that's the confident spirit I want them to take into their teens and adulthood.

C
??? Can you be too beautiful? It is hardly a problem that most of us have to bother — as much as we might like to dream that it were the case.
??? Yet the blessings and curses of beauty have been a long-standing interest in psychology. Do those blessed with shiny faces and an attractive body live in a cloud of appreciation — or does it sometimes pay to be ordinary?
??? At the most basic level, beauty might be thought to carry a kind of halo (光環(huán)) around it; we see that someone has one good quality, and by association, our deep mind may assume that they have other good ones too.
??? Even in the courts, a pleasing appearance can work its magic. Attractive criminals are likely to get less strict sentences, or to escape punishment entirely; attractive plaintiffs (原告), meanwhile, are more likely to win their case and get bigger financial settlements. “It's an effect seen everywhere,” says Walker.
??? But if beauty pays in most circumstances, there are still situations where it can have opposite results. While attractive men may be considered better leaders, for instance, hidden sexist prejudices (偏見) can work against attractive women, making them less likely to be hired for high-level jobs that require power. And as you might expect, good-looking people of both sexes run into envy — one study found that if you are interviewed by someone of the same sex, they may be less likely to employ you if they judge that you are more attractive than they are.
??? More worryingly, being beautiful or handsome could harm your medical care. We tend to link good looks to health, meaning that illnesses are often taken less seriously when they affect the good-looking. When treating people for pain, for instance, doctors tend to take less care over the more attractive people.
??? Ultimately, scientists point out that focusing too much on your appearance can itself be harmful if it creates stress and anxiety — even for those already blessed with good looks. “If you are crazy about attractiveness, it may affect your experience and interactions,” she says. It's an outdated saying, but no amount of beauty can make up for a bad personality. As the writer Dorothy Parker put it so elegantly: “Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.”
（1）From paragraph 1, we can learn that _______.
A.some may be bothered by their unattractive appearance
B.most people are not afraid of being too beautiful
C.we might always dream about being bothered by others
D.being too beautiful can be a problem bothering everyone
（2）Which is the benefit for beautiful people?
A.All attractive plaintiffs have more chances to get away with punishment.
B.Women with pleasing appearance will always be considered as better leaders.
C.Good-looking people are often regarded as having many good qualities.
D.Beautiful criminals are more likely to persuade the judge and win the case.
（3）The writer mentioned the underlined sentence in the last paragraph to _______.
A.persuade us to pay more attention to our looks from now on
B.suggest that beauty can help make a better personality
C.encourage us to focus more on improving our personality
D.ask ugly people to have more confidence in their personality
（4）What might be the best title for the passage?
A.Beauty, a blessing?
B.Sexist Prejudice.
C.Real beauty.
D.Benefits Beauty holds.
【答案】（1）B
（2）C
（3）C
（4）A
【解析】這是一篇說明文。介紹了美給人們帶來的積極因素和消極因素。重點(diǎn)介紹了美給人們帶來的消極因素。
（1）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段Can you be too beautiful? It is hardly a problem that most of us have to bother — as much as we might like to dream that it were the case.可知，這并不是一個(gè)我們大多數(shù)人都要操心的問題，我們夢(mèng)想著自己很漂亮。故選 B。
（2）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段At the most basic level, beauty might be thought to carry a kind of halo (光環(huán)) around it; we see that someone has one good quality, and by association, our deep mind may assume that they have other good ones too.可知，外表好看的人經(jīng)常被認(rèn)為有很多好品質(zhì)。故選C。
（3）推理判斷題。由最后段but no amount of beauty can make up for a bad personality. As the writer Dorothy Parker put it so elegantly: “Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.”可知，但再多的美也彌補(bǔ)不了壞的人格。正如作家多蘿西·帕克所說的：“美只淺及皮毛,丑卻深入骨髓?！币庠诠膭?lì)我們要提高自身內(nèi)在的人格。故選C。
（4）標(biāo)題歸納題。由后三段可知，重點(diǎn)介紹了美給人們帶來的消極因素以及作者希望人們不要過多的關(guān)注外表而是要提高自身內(nèi)在的人格。故選A。

D
?? ?Being able to tell human faces apart is a skill that almost every person has, although some are far better at it than others. But a new study out from the journal Scientific Reports says that this is not just a skill that humans possess. Even fish can do it.
?? ?Following up on research studying different species' abilities to recognize human faces (sheep, dogs, cows, horses, and-birds have all been tried), the researchers from the University of Oxford and the University of Queensland decided to pick an animal that does not have an evolved neocortex, the part of the brain that processes sight and sounds, and does not have a close relationship with humans. That way, there would be no reason why these test subjects would have a past history of identifying human faces. So they picked the archerfish, a reef fish variety that shoots water into the air to knock its prey out of the sky. They used this adaptation to have the fish spray water at a face on a monitor hanging over their tanks for a reward. Most of the fish were able to pick out their learned face, even when colors were taken away or methods were used to make the face shapes unclear.
?? ?This study gives more backing to the hypothesis that differentiating between faces is not just a skill that big -brained organisms are born with. It is possible that a good portion of recognizing faces is learned over time. The development of the neocortex may contribute only to quickly process a large number of faces in varying situations. But more work needs to be conducted to find a deeper link to this possible learned behavior. The sample size of this study was very small—only eight fish were used altogether. Also, the faces displayed on the monitor were only white, female faces from a German database, shown in a frontal view, with no expressions. Other animal trials have shown that some species, like pigeons, respond more to differing angles and varied expressions.

【解析】本文是一篇說明文，《科學(xué)報(bào)告》雜志的一項(xiàng)新研究表明，分辨人臉不僅僅是人類所擁有的技能，魚也能做到。文章說明了研究人員用射水魚來進(jìn)行研究的原因，以及試驗(yàn)過程。作者對(duì)這項(xiàng)研究持謹(jǐn)慎態(tài)度，認(rèn)為還需要做更多的工作來找到這種可能的習(xí)得行為的更深層次的聯(lián)系。
（1）考查寫作意圖。根據(jù)第一段中的“But a new study out from the journal Scientific Reports says that this is not just a skill that humans possess. Even fish can do it.”但《科學(xué)報(bào)告》雜志的一項(xiàng)新研究表明，這不僅僅是人類所擁有的技能。甚至魚也能做到。結(jié)合文章說明了《科學(xué)報(bào)告》雜志的一項(xiàng)新研究表明，分辨人臉不僅僅是人類所擁有的技能，魚也能做到。文章說明了研究人員用射水魚來進(jìn)行研究的原因，以及試驗(yàn)過程。作者對(duì)這項(xiàng)研究持謹(jǐn)慎態(tài)度，認(rèn)為還需要做更多的工作來找到這種可能的習(xí)得行為的更深層次的聯(lián)系。由此可推知，這篇文章的目的是表明動(dòng)物可以識(shí)別人的臉。故選D。
（2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Following up on research studying different species' abilities to recognize human faces (sheep, dogs, cows, horses, and-birds have all been tried), the researchers from the University of Oxford and the University of Queensland decided to pick an animal that does not have an evolved neocortex, the part of the brain that processes sight and sounds, and does not have a close relationship with humans. That way, there would be no reason why these test subjects would have a past history of identifying human faces. So they picked the archerfish, a reef fish variety that shoots water into the air to knock its prey out of the sky.”繼研究不同物種識(shí)別人臉的能力后（羊、狗、牛、馬、鳥都試過），牛津大學(xué)和昆士蘭大學(xué)的研究人員決定選擇一種沒有進(jìn)化的新皮層（大腦中處理視覺和聲音的部分）、與人類關(guān)系不密切的動(dòng)物。這樣一來，這些測(cè)試對(duì)象就沒有理由會(huì)有過去識(shí)別人臉的歷史。所以他們選擇了射水魚，這是一種礁石魚的品種，會(huì)向空中射水，把獵物打到天上去?？芍?，選擇射水魚作為實(shí)驗(yàn)對(duì)象是因?yàn)樗麄兒腿祟愱P(guān)系不是很密切。故選C。
（3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But more work needs to be conducted to find a deeper link to this possible learned behavior. The sample size of this study was very small—only eight fish were used altogether. Also, the faces displayed on the monitor were only white, female faces from a German database, shown in a frontal view, with no expressions. Other animal trials have shown that some species, like pigeons, respond more to differing angles and varied expressions.”但是還需要做更多的工作來找到這種可能的習(xí)得行為的更深層次的聯(lián)系。這項(xiàng)研究的樣本量非常小——總共只使用了8條魚。此外，顯示器上顯示的面孔都是來自德國數(shù)據(jù)庫的白色女性面孔，以正面視圖顯示，沒有表情。其他的動(dòng)物實(shí)驗(yàn)表明，一些物種，比如鴿子，對(duì)不同的角度和不同的表達(dá)有更多的反應(yīng)?？赏浦?，作者對(duì)這項(xiàng)研究持謹(jǐn)慎態(tài)度。故選A。
（4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中“The sample size of this study was very small—only eight fish were used altogether.”這項(xiàng)研究的樣本量非常小——總共只使用了8條魚?？赏浦?，文章建議今后開展類似的研究時(shí)，應(yīng)注意“包括更多的測(cè)試對(duì)象”。故選A。
【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和寫作意圖三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。

Besides, people, especially women, should lay more attention on the cultivation of their inner hearts. The inner beauty outweighs the outside beauty in the long run.
【答案】 given；bigger；his；However；that；being；for；judgement；a；harms
【解析】本文是一篇議論文，討論了整容給人們帶來的負(fù)面影響及什么是真正的美。
（1）考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意：如果給選擇的機(jī)會(huì)，很多人至少會(huì)改變他們外貌的一個(gè)方面。本句主語a great many people與動(dòng)詞give構(gòu)成被動(dòng)關(guān)系，要用過去分詞表示被動(dòng)。所以要填given。
（2）考查形容詞。句意：他們會(huì)要求醫(yī)生給他一個(gè)更直的鼻子，更大的嘴唇等。句中比較級(jí)bigger與前面的straighter構(gòu)成并列結(jié)構(gòu)，所以填bigger。
（3）考查代詞。句意：首先，一個(gè)人的外表是他或她父母親的賜福。人的性別有男有女，用his和her構(gòu)成并列關(guān)系，故填his。
（4）考查副詞。句意：做完隆胸手術(shù)以后，很多人看起來比以前更加性感。然而，很多人后來都被診斷患有乳房疾病。根據(jù)句意可知上下文是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，且橫線前面有符合隔開，要填表示轉(zhuǎn)折意義的副詞however引導(dǎo)上下文。故填However。
（5）考查表語從句。句意：更嚴(yán)重的影響是她們冒著不能喂奶的危險(xiǎn)。句中that引導(dǎo)表語從句，在句中不充當(dāng)任何成分，只是一個(gè)引導(dǎo)詞而已。故填that。
（6）考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意：更嚴(yán)重的影響是她們冒著不能喂奶的危險(xiǎn)。risk doing sth固定短語“冒險(xiǎn)做某事”，和be able to do sth連用；句中要用being able to…做risk的賓語。故填being。
（7）考查介詞。句意：第二，倡導(dǎo)這樣的做法會(huì)在判斷美的方面誤導(dǎo)人們。動(dòng)詞advocate與介詞for連用，表示倡導(dǎo)某事。故填for。
（8）考查名詞。第二，倡導(dǎo)這樣的做法會(huì)在判斷美的方面誤導(dǎo)人們。在定冠詞the的后面通常要加名詞，本句中要用名詞形式做介詞in的賓語，故填judgement。
（9）考查冠詞。句意：這種做法和關(guān)于人造美的爭論會(huì)讓那些形成正確的美的概念的人很困惑。句中名詞concept意為“概念”，是一個(gè)可數(shù)名詞，用不定冠詞a修飾，表示泛指。故填a。
（10）考查名詞。句意：關(guān)于這種行為可能會(huì)帶來的上文的可能的害處…...。在英語里形容詞的后面通常接名詞代詞，句中使用形容詞possible修飾名詞harm，上文提及了不止一個(gè)害處，要用復(fù)數(shù)形式。故填harms。
【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及非謂語動(dòng)詞，形容詞，代詞，副詞，表語從句，介詞，名詞以及冠詞等多個(gè)知識(shí)點(diǎn)的考查，是一篇生活類閱讀，要求考生在理解細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，并結(jié)合相關(guān)語法知識(shí)，進(jìn)行分析推理，從而寫出正確的單詞形式。
