1.The Italian dinners we had every Sunday when I was a boy were feasts fit for a king.There were loaves of Italian bread ready to be eaten.(16)Theywere great with butter and even(17)better(good) when you dipped them in the sauce(调味汁).My grandma,(18)whom/who we called"Nanny",would always bake them a day ahead so they would be ready.I remember watching her hand make the dough(面团).I would often ask to help but only because I wanted to have  (19)a bite of the dough before she placed it in the pans to bake.
One day I (20)foolishly (fool) asked Nanny why she didn't just buy bread at the store(21)to save(save) time."Because they're not as good,"she said(22)withher thick Italian accent.Then she laughed,smiled,and gave me a piece of dough to eat.
Nanny was right.Today I buy my bread at the store and it isn't as good.It is factory-made and (23)lacks (lack) all the taste,warmth,and love that Nanny put into hers.Store-bought happiness is a sad substitute for homemade joy.(24)If you want lasting love,permanent peace,and endless joy,then you have to bake them (25)on your own.

分析 作者在这篇短文中回忆了小时候每个星期天奶奶都会花费大量时间给他准备一顿丰盛的意大利烤面包,蘸着黄油和调味汁吃起来非常可口.有一天作者问奶奶为什么
不在店里买现成的,那样可以节省时间,奶奶说那样的不好吃.事实证明奶奶是正确的,外面买来的缺乏所有的味道,温度以及奶奶烤面包时融在里面的爱意.

解答 16.They;考查人称代词,分析句子,空格处应指代前面的 loaves of Italian bread,所以用人称代词they.
17.better;考查形容词的比较级
18.whom/who;考查关系代词,此处是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词是My grandma,指人,所以用关系代词whom/who,在从句中作called的宾语.
19.a;考查冠词,have a bite of 意为"咬一口",此处bite为可数名词,用冠词a表示数量.
20.foolishly;考查副词,此处需要修饰的是后面的动词asked,所以要用副词形式 foolishly.
21.to save;考查动词的不定式,此处用不定式表示目的.
22.with,考查介词,这里介词短语with her thick Italian accent作状语,句意为"她带着浓重的意大利口音说…".
23.lacks;考查动词的时态,这里and连接两个并列成分,前面用了动词的第三人称单数is,后面也要用第三人称单数形式,故用lacks.
24.If;考查连词,分析句意应为"如果你想要拥有永久的爱与和平以及无尽的欢乐,那么就亲自动手自己考面包吧",所以这里应当用if引导一个条件状语从句.
25.on;考查固定短语,on one's own 是固定搭配,意为"独自地,亲自".

点评 首先要通读全文,了解大意,抓住上下文语境所提供的信息,仔细分析带空格的句子,明确空格所要填的词义,词型和短语搭配给出所要填的正确形式,然后整体阅读短文,核对答案.

6.The values of artistic works,according to cultural relativism,are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions.Such a view,however,fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.
History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world.It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls,as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries.Unique works of this kind are different from today's popular art,even if they began as works of popular art.They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.
In a 1757 essay,the philosopher David Hume argued that because"the general principles of taste are uniform(不变的) in human nature,"the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent.He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years.Works of this type,he believed,spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.
Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art.For example,evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction.The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before.Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.
33.In Paragraph 2,the artists are mentioned in order to show thatB.
A.history gives art works special appeal to set them apart
B.great works of art can go beyond national boundaries
C.popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts
D.great artists are skilled a t combining various cultures
34.According to Hume,some works of art can exist for centuries becauseC.
A.they are results of scientific study  
B.they establish some general principles of art
C.they appeal to unchanging features of human nature
D.they are created by the world's greatest artists
35.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?D
A.Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?
B.Are Popular Arts Permanent?
C.Is Human Nature Uniform?
D.Are Artistic Values Universal?
13.Why does Facebook use blue as its primary branding color?According to The New Yorker,the reason is simple:it's because Mark Zuckerberg is red-green colorblind.As the Facebook CEO told the magazine,"Blue is the richest color for me-I can see all of blue."
While Facebook's choice of blue didn't come after extensive research,it's most likely not sheer coincidence that two other major social networking sites-Twitter and LinkedIn-also picked blue as their dominant color.
Blue is the color of the intellect,the mind,making it the color of communication.And when you think about social media,it's all about communicating.Besides,blue is the world's favorite color,multiple surveys have shown.Ask people their favorite color,and in most parts of the world roughly half will say blue,a figure three to four times the support for common second-place finishers like purple or green.The color is also associated with trust,honor and productivity,which constitute how a lot of businesses want to be perceived.
Another example is CocaCola.It's not by accident that its logo and cans have remained red for decades.The mention of the beverage probably had you think of red immediately,the most emotionally intense color associated with boldness,love and life.
The visual sense is the strongest developed sense in most human beings.Research has revealed that people make a subconscious judgment about a person,environment,or product within 90 seconds of initial viewing and that between 62 percent and 90 percent of that assessment is based on color alone.It's only natural that advertisers and marketers have spent vast amount of time and money in attempts to use color for the purpose of influencing consumers to use their services or buy their products
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
 
78.Why do some networking sites use"blue"as their dominant color?Because it stands for the intellect and the mind.
79.That businessmen are supposed to think carefully about the color they choose is thatit is associated with trust,honor and productivity.
80.According to the survey about their favorite color,roughly half in most parts of the worldsupport blue.
81.What is the main factor when people make a subconscious judgment?The main factor is based on color alone.
