【解析】

本文包括两段说明文和一段记叙文,分别介绍了节日的起源、林巧稚学医、旧金山淘金。

1考查名词的数。句意:它们的起源从一年四季到重要事件都有。此处指不止一个节日的起源,应该用可数名词复数形式,谓语为range也可知,要填名词复数做主语。故填origins

2】考查介词。句意:说到庆祝节日,不同的文化其实有很多共同点。in common表示有共同之处,故填in

3考查时态语态。句意:人们在收割完所有的庄稼后庆祝丰收节。主语crops gather之间是被动关系,而且动作已经发生并对现在造成影响,所以用现在完成时的被动语态,且谓语动词用复数,故填have been gathered

4】考查非谓语动词。句意:节日变得越来越商业化,商家们都开始利用节日庆典。此处为“with+宾语+宾补的复合结构,businessestake之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,表示主动,用现在分词作宾补,故填taking

5】考查固定短语。句意:18岁时,林巧芝博士选择了学医,而不是像大多数女孩那样结婚。the majority of表示大多数,故填majority

6考查非谓语动词。句意:毕业后,她成为第一个被聘为协和医院住院医师的女性。当被修饰词前有序数词修饰时,用不定式作后置定语,womanhire之间是被动关系,所以用不定式的被动式,故填to be hired

7考查副词。句意:1939年在美国学习期间,林巧稚博士给她的美国同事留下了深刻印象,于是他们邀请她留在美国,然而,她拒绝了这一提议。根据句意可知前后是转折关系,空后有逗号,故填however

8考查时态。句意:旧金山在1906年地震后得以重建。时间状语“in 1906”表明应该用一般过去时,故填occurred

9考查连词。句意:教会区,这个城市最古老的部分之一,曾经是一个贫穷的地区,但现在是艺术,音乐和美食的中心。根据句可知此处说的是现在和过去的对比,是转折关系,故填but

10考查固定短语。句意:1848年在旧金山附近发现黄金后,许多人前来淘金,一些中国人开商店和餐馆来谋生。earn/make a living是固定短语,表示“谋生”,故填a

【题目】 Three brown bears in the distance catches Charlie Russell’s eye. When they get a metre or so away from him, the huge animals slow down. The leading bear holds her face very close to Rusell’s. She touches his nose with her own and Russell breaks into a smile. “Hey, little bear,” he says.

Rusell, now 70, has spent more than ten springs and summers living with brown bears in the eastern-most part of Russia.“No question, bears are dangerous,” says Russell, but he also argues that fearing them prevents us from recognizing their intelligent, playful and peaceful nature. “They attack us because we abuse them.” he insists.

“What I want to do now is work on the human side of the problem,” Russell says. In Canada —a country where cities spread deep into the rural landscape and hunters kill about 450 bears annually, he is determined to change the way we treat our neighbors.

Russell was raised with the idea that “the only good bear is a dead bear.” His father, a hunter, shared stories of cruel brown bears with his five children. However, when the family’s hunting business declined in the early 1960s, Russell joined his father on an expedition to film brown bears in Alaska. Russell couldn’t help but wonder why bears behaved aggressively towards people carrying guns, but left the film-makers alone. “I suspected they didn’t like cruelty,” he says.

In 1994 he tested out his theory in British Columbia’s Khutzeymateen Inlet, where he took tourists on bear-viewing tours. One afternoon, while resting on a log between guiding trips, Russell sat still as a female brown bear casually approached. “I knew if I did not move, she would keep coming,” he later said. “I had decided to let her come as close as she wanted.” Russell spoke to the bear in gentle tones and she sat down beside him. She put her paw on his hand and Russell responded to the gesture, touching her nose, lip and teeth. These were the iron jaws featured in his father’s campfire stories, now no more threatening than the nose of a little dog. If he could repeat similar moments, Russell believed he could prove that “just by treating bears kindly, people can live safely with them”.

1According to Russell, bears attack humans because they ________.

A.mistreat themB.are afraid of them

C.mistake their playful tricksD.have no idea of their real nature

2The underlined part in Para. 4 suggests ________.

A.a good bear never diesB.a live bear is dangerous

C.the only good bear is deadD.a bear is aggressive to gun holders

3The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to ________.

A.show us how brave he isB.warn us not to approach bears

C.encourage us to play with bearsD.tell us to live in peace with bears
