9.As one of the most well-known of the fantasy languages invented for science fiction film,television and book,and developed by J.R.R.Tolkien himself,Elvish is made up with several thousand words and different sentence structures.
  Constructed languages (人造語言) like Elvish are real languages,madeup of thousands of words created by fantasy writers,linguists and fans,with real language rules.While a
widespread vocabulary is advantageous to a constructed language,there is a key differentiator (區(qū)分者) we can see between just a lot of words and real language:Grammar.
  Grammar is what makes constructed languages like Elvish learnable by everyday superfans.Superfans of The Lord of the Rings have built websites and created dictionaries,apps and translators,to teach Elvish.They have also created online clubs where fans can discuss and even create new words based on the already existing vocabulary,and continue to study the language.
  So what does it take to be a master of Elvish?
  In learning Elvish,there are a couple of grammatical rules similar to those of the English language.For example,in order to make a verb past tense in English,you have to add an-ed,makingwash,washed.Similarly in Elvish,in order to change the word for wash,which is allu,to the past tense then you have to add an-ne to the word.So washed is then translated to allune in past tense.
  Nouns in Elvish are different in the way that the noun changes depending on how it's used in a sentence,just like in Latin or Russian.For example,the word head in Elvish is CAS.However,if you duck your head,then the word changes to CARA.When mentioningsomething in your head,then it changes to CASSE.Tolkien's attention to detail in creating the fantasy world used in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit,complete with multiple functioning (多功能的) invented languages,has attracted readers and movie viewers these years.
  Elvish is only one of the many magical languages developed by J.R.R.Tolkien.Creating language for fantasy has proven to add to viewers and readers experiences.By transplanting their imagination to a new world,fans are able to learn the new language and speak Elvish with each other,much like their favorite characters.

A.certain grammatical rules make the language learnable
B.it is made up with lots of words and sentence structures
C.characters in The Lord of the Rings use it to communicate

B.The form of a noun doesn't change in Elvish.
C.Elvish and English share the same grammar.

分析 原文大意:
作為科幻電影最著名的幻想語言之一,電視和書籍是由J.R.R.Tolkien自己開發(fā),精靈由幾千個詞和不同的句子結(jié)構(gòu)組成.
構(gòu)造語言就像精靈,是真實的語言,由幻想作家,語言學(xué)家和球迷創(chuàng)造的數(shù)千個詞組成,具有真實的語言規(guī)則.廣泛熟知的詞匯有利于一種語言的構(gòu)造,在許多詞匯和一門語言之間,有一個關(guān)鍵區(qū)別,那就是語法.語法是使構(gòu)造的語言像精靈一樣變成可以被日常超級粉絲學(xué)習(xí)的東西.魔戒的建立者建立了網(wǎng)站,創(chuàng)建了字典,應(yīng)用程序和翻譯,并且一直在教授精靈.他們還創(chuàng)建了在線俱樂部,粉絲可以討論甚至基于已經(jīng)存在的詞匯創(chuàng)建新詞,并繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)語言.
那么,成為精靈的高手需要什么?
在學(xué)習(xí)精靈語言時,有一些與英語語法相似的語法規(guī)則.例如,為了使英語中的動詞過去時態(tài),你必須添加ed,比如把wash變成washed.類似地在精靈中,在改變洗滌這個詞時,這個詞是allu,過去時,那么你必須添加一個ne到這個詞.然后洗就被翻譯成過去時的allune.
精靈中的名詞根據(jù)其在句子中的使用方式而有所不同,就像在拉丁語或俄語中一樣.例如,精靈中的詞頭是CAS.但是,如果你低頭,那么詞改變?yōu)镃ARA.當(dāng)你注意到腦海中的某些事情,那么它將變?yōu)镃ASSE.Tolkien在戒指和霍比特人非常在意使用文字的細節(jié),努力完成多功能發(fā)明語言,因此這么多年吸引了大量的讀者和電影觀眾.
精靈只是由J.R.R.Tolkien開發(fā)的許多神奇語言之一.創(chuàng)造奇幻語言已經(jīng)證明了其在創(chuàng)作中加入了觀眾和讀者的經(jīng)驗.通過移植他們的想象力到一個新的世界,影迷們能夠?qū)W習(xí)新的語言,并且彼此通過精靈交流.并且,更加喜歡劇中人物的性格.

解答 52.A,文義推斷題,文中指出"like Elvish are real languages with real language rules",精靈語言雖然是認為編寫,但讓他被認為是一種語言的原因是他擁有一套完整的語言規(guī)則,所以選擇A
53.C,文字推斷題,文中指出"Superfans of The Lord of the Rings have built websites and created dictionaries,apps and translators,to teach Elvish."指環(huán)王的超級粉絲在教授精靈語言,且創(chuàng)建字典,開設(shè)網(wǎng)站和app等形式,所以推測精靈語言不難學(xué),并存在字典工具,所以排除AB選項;文中用"They have also created online clubs where fans can discuss and even create new words based on the already existing vocabulary,and continue to study the language."來表明粉絲可以創(chuàng)建新詞,但并不包括語法,所以選項D錯誤.對于選項C,文章說"has attracted readers and movie viewers these years",表明其這些年吸引了很多讀者及看電影的人,所以說精靈是一種新興的語言結(jié)構(gòu),并且吸引了好多人.故選C
54.D,細節(jié)分析題.根據(jù)原文意思,"allu,to the past tense then you have to add an-ne to the word",洗的單詞在精靈中是'allu',再轉(zhuǎn)換成過去時時應(yīng)該在末尾家"ne",A錯誤;文中說"Nouns in Elvish are different in the way that the noun changes depending on how it's used in a sentence",表明名詞的使用形式與句子表達意思有關(guān),說明其會發(fā)生變化,B錯誤;文中指出"there are a couple of grammatical rules similar to those of the English language",說明精靈語言和英語語法類似,但從下文得知并非完全相同,所以C錯誤;D中Hobbit霍比特人屬于科幻電影,所以符合要求.
55.A,考察主題歸納.本文通篇都在介紹精靈語言,涉及到其發(fā)明人,電影名稱及語言學(xué)習(xí),但最重要的還是在說明精靈語言的出處、發(fā)展、語法、教學(xué)等,所以主題應(yīng)該是精靈語言,所以選擇A.

點評 本文主要是奇幻語言-精靈的來源、語法及應(yīng)用等.題止涉及到詞義猜測、推理判斷和主旨大意題,要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上進行合理地分析才能得出正確答案,切記不能亂猜,一定做到有理有據(jù)

16.I'm a 15-year-old girl.I look normal:I'm not tall or short,and I'm not ugly or beautiful.But there's one problem:I have a big behind.
When I shop for dresses,I can never find one big enough for me.Most shops only have small sizes.So it's really hard for me to find the perfect dress.When I see thin girls in their small dresses,sometimes I can't help being sad.
For most girls,getting a dress is easy.They can always find one that fits.
But not for me.It takes me weeks or seven months to find a dress that covers my behind and doesn't make my arms look so fat.A lot of the time,I have to give up my favorite color.Once,I was in a dressing room.The girl in the room beside me was talking to her friend.She said she had been on a diet all years,but her behind was still too big.Poor girl!She was so thin,she looked like she hadn't eaten in months!After I saw her,I decided I don't want to go on that kind of diet.
But each time I am out with my mum,I only think about two things:finding a dress,and eating something good for lunch.Maybe I should try to eat a little less.
Or maybe girls shouldn't worry about being thin all the time.We should try to eat a little less.
Or maybe girls shouldn't worry about being thin all the time.We should just try to be happy with ourselves.
I went to 324dress shops last year when I was looking for a dress.This year,I'm not going to worry about it too much,the world is full of small behinds,and I'm proud to have a big one.

14.Space vegetables are grown from seeds(種子)that have been taken to space and brought back to the earth.The seeds are affected by the radiation(輻射)and low gravity in space.When they are brought back to the earth,these seeds produce vegetables that are bigger and healthier than normal vegetables.However,some people worry about eating space vegetables.They think that space vegetables might not be good for us and could make us get sick because of the radiation in space.However,people should not be frightened because space vegetables are very healthy.
Here are some facts that you should know about space vegetables.
Space vegetables are grown from seeds that are carefully chosen.When seeds are brought back from space,they are tested to make sure that they will be safe to eat.
Space vegetables are better for you than normal vegetables.For example,space tomatoes stay fresh for twenty days,which is one week longer than normal tomatoes.
After genetically modified(轉(zhuǎn)基因)food appeared in the market,people worried that they were eating unknown things.For example,if nut genes(堅果基因)are put inside potatoes,people allergic to nuts might get sick from eating these potatoes because they do not know they are also eating nuts.Unlike genetically modified food,space vegetables have not been genetically changed.This means that no new genes are put into the vegetables.Therefore,there are no dangers of eating something unknown.
30.Genetically modified food is different from space vegetables because itC.
A.is grown in space                    
B.has nothing unknown
C.has been genetically changed          
D.has no new genes
31.According to the passage,normal tomatoes can stay fresh for aboutB days.
A.seven                             
B.thirteen
C.twenty                            
D.twenty-seven
32.The underlined word"allergic"means"A"in Chinese.
A.過敏                              
B.種植
C.發(fā)現(xiàn)                              
D.出售
33.The writer wants to tell us thatC.
A.space vegetables are grown in space
B.everybody worries about eating space vegetables
C.space vegetables are safe and good for people to eat
D.space vegetables may bring illness to us because of the radiation in space.

1.Would you like to have a brother or a sister?Months ago this might have sounded impossible to many.But since last year with the end of China's"one child policy",this could actually happen now.All Chinese couples are allowed to have two children,which means that many Chinese children,including you,may have siblings (兄弟姐妹) in the future.
But the idea of"siblings"probably sounds unfamiliar.What would it be like growing up with a brother or a sister?Having a sibling can prevent children from bad feelings such as loneliness and fear,according to Laura,a professor of family research from Brigham university,US."Sibling gives kids something that parents can't."she said.She thinks kids may not feel lonely at home anymore because there is someone to play with them.They can also share secrets with him or her.
And the birth order of siblings could matter,too.US psychologist Kevin said that birth order decides the way parents treat their children,this causing different personalities between siblings.He explained that parents are usually more nervous and strict for their first child.So firstborns tend to (傾向于) be perfectionists because parents set high goals for them.They are usually disciplined (自律的) and eager to succeed.When the couple has a second child,they are less strict and have fewer rules.So late-born kids are usually more creative.They love attention.It's said that many of them also have a good sense of humor.
56.What's the author's attitude to the possibilities of siblings?A
A.He is for the idea for children to have siblings.
B.He is against the idea for children to have siblings.
C.He doesn't care whether the children have siblings or not.
D.He thinks he is a only child in his family.
57.Which of the following is not the advantage of having a brother or a sister?D
A.There is someone to play with you.
B.Partly getting away from loneliness and fear.
C.Sharing secrets with your brothers or sisters.
D.Getting anything from their parents.
58.What does the underlined word"this"refers to?B
A.China's one-child policy.
B.Have a brother or a sister.
C.Treat children strictly.
D.The idea of having siblings.
59.Why does the birth order of siblings cause their different personalities?C
A.Parents usually treat the second child better than the first one.
B.When parents have the second child,they will be too busy to look after them well.
C.Parents usually have different ways to raise the second child.
D.Parents usually like first child best.
60.Which of the following is not true?D
A.Firstborns may be perfectionists because parents set high goals for them.
B.Late-born kids are usually more creative because they are under less pressure from their parents.
C.Parents usually pay more attention to their first child.
D.Late-born kids are not disciplined (自律的) and eager to succeed.
