【解析】

本文为一篇说明文,主要讲述了BBC一小时关于杜甫的纪录片。

1

考查时态和语态。句意:这一年的四月六号BBC发布了一部一小时关于中国伟大诗人杜甫的纪录片。首先这句话里面没有谓语,所以这里的动词launch是做句子谓语。其次纪录片和发布之间的关系为被动关系,因此需要用被动语态。通过整篇文章可知纪录片已经发布了,所以还需要使用过去式。又主语纪录片是用的单数。故填was launched

2

考查定语从句。句意:杜甫不只是一位诗人,我们还把他的诗歌风格称为现实主义。先行词是杜甫,而诗歌风格又跟杜甫构成所属关系。故填whose

3

考查非谓语动词。句意:出生于公元712年,杜甫这一生经历了唐朝的动荡,当时战争、洪水和饥荒几乎摧毁了这个国家。这句话已经有了lived作谓语,所以这里的bear要以非谓语形式出现。而出生于又是短语be born in。置于句首,首字母大写,故填Born

4

考查名词。句意:在他的诗歌中,他倾注了对国家和人民的关怀,以及庆祝生活中为数不多的简单快乐。few是用来修饰可数名词的复数。故填joys

5

考查副词。句意:为了探索杜甫的一生以及对中国和中国人民的意义,纪录片摄制组在追寻这位八世纪诗人的足迹时遇到了极大的困难。句子想要表达意思是拍摄非常困难,要来修饰tough这个形容词,所以前面需要用副词修饰。故填extremely

6

考查冠词。句意:这部纪录片不是很容易观看。watch作为可数名词,文中以单数形式出现,也就是说前面需要有冠词。但这里并不是特指哪一次观看,所以需要用不定冠词。前面修饰的形容词open又是以元音音素开头。故填an

7

考查介词。句意:为了帮助理解杜甫在文学上的巨大成就,纪录片里面将其与莎士比亚做了对比。我们用be compared to这一搭配来表示被比较。故填to

8

考查非谓语动词。句意:此外,该节目还邀请了在指环王中扮演甘道夫的迈凯伦来朗诵了翻译成英文的15首杜甫诗歌。邀请某人做某事我们用到invite sb. to do sth.这一结构。故填to read

9

考查副词比较级。句意:这样能更好的让外国读者理解杜甫诗歌的独特之处。通过这个纪录片的介绍,观众们要比没有观看这部纪录片时更能理解杜甫诗歌的特别之处。所以这里有一个比较的含义在这里。故填better

10

考查非谓语动词。句意:纪录片在某种程度上向世界展示了中国传统文学的魅力,激发了人们学习中国唐诗的欲望。这句话中已经有了谓语动词is displaying,所以fuel点燃这一动词就要以非谓语的形式出现。而fuel和它的逻辑主语纪录片又是主动关系。故填fueling

【题目】 Why elephants rarely get cancer is a mystery that has confused scientists for decades. A study led by researchers at Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI), at the University of Utah and Arizona State University may have found the answer.

According to the results, elephants have 38 additional modified copies of a gene that encodes p53, a definite tumor suppressor, as compared to humans, who have only two. Further, elephants may have a more powerful mechanism for killing damaged cells that are at risk for becoming cancerous. In isolated elephant cells, this activity is doubled compared to healthy human cells, and five times that of cells from patients with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, who have only one working copy of p53 and more than a 90 percent lifetime cancer risk in children and adults. The results suggest extra p53 could explain elephants’ increased resistance to cancer.

“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer. It’s up to us to learn how different animals overcome the problem so we can adapt those strategies to prevent cancer in people,” says co-senior author Joshua Schiffman, M.D., pediatric oncologist (儿科肿瘤医生) at Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah School of Medicine.

But Prof Mel Greaves, from the Institute of Cancer Research in London, says we should focus on why humans have such high levels of cancer. He pointed to the rise of unhealthy, cancer-causing behaviors, such as obesity and sunbathing. “You’ve never seen an elephant smoke!” he added.

According to Schiffman, elephants have long been considered a walking problem. Because they have 100 times as many cells as people, they should be 100 times more likely to have a cell slip into a cancerous state and cause the disease over their long life span of 50 to 70 years. And yet analysis of a large database of elephant deaths estimates a cancer death rate of less than 5 percent compared to 11 to 25 percent in people.

A.Elephants are bigger than humans.

B.Elephants have more p53 genes and mechanism killing damaged cells.

C.Elephants are not as clever as humans in walking.

D.Elephants eat more than humans.

A.multiplierB.complexC.restrainerD.coordinator

3What’s Prof Mel Greaves’ attitude towards the discovery?

A.Doubtful.B.Neutral.C.Critical.D.Favorable.

4What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.Elephants have longer life than people.

B.There is no chance that elephants die from cancer.

C.The rate of elephants dying from cancer is increasing.

D.It was thought theoretically that elephants could get cancer more easily.

【题目】 In 2012, Mary Davis, who works at an enrichment center .for young children, and her husband, Ari Kadin, who is in property management, were expecting their first child when Davis miscarried (流产). They were desperately heartbroken. But the couple, who were volunteering with adults in a Skid Row homeless shelter, refused to let their heartbreak break them.

"In 2013, our child would have been one year old,” says Davis, 38, "and we kept seeing these kids at the shelter, and I said to my husband, 'We couldn't throw a birthday party for our child, so let's do it for these kids. '"

They took over a room in the Union Rescue Mission and filled it with streamers (飘带), gifts, a cake — all the makings of a great party. Since then, the couple has thrown a party every month. They routinely attract 250 kids and their parents. An hour before each party, volunteers arrive to set up the decorations and activities: face painting, balloon artists, a DJ, cake, and pizza. There are small presents for the kids celebrating their birthdays that month, but Davis makes sure there are more than enough to go around.

"I remember a mom came with her two kids," Davis says, “and her child had a birthday. We had an extra gift for her—pink headphones. The little girl was so excited that she was jumping up and down. And her mom …she's crying, 'Yesterday was her birthday. I had nothing to give her. I really didn't expect a birthday party for my child.'"

Doing her best to normalize(使正常化)these kids' lives is both heartwarming and bittersweet. Davis says, "If you look down, you see so many homeless people on the street, which reminds you that these kids don't get to leave this area after the party. "It may be why, after throwing 88 parties, she still cries after each one.
