The heart of the story lies in Pi as a young man and the time he spent out at sea on a lifeboat with a tiger named Richard Parker, but getting to that point is quite an ordeal（苦難考驗(yàn)）. Pi loses everything and everyone close to him in the blink of an eye and he doesn’t 【2】 on making what feels like an unbreakable bond with a Bengal tiger.

The 【3】 film offers a rather marvelous message about religion as Pi discusses the experimentation with several different religions as a young boy. Even though it seems kind of silly that a boy has 【4】 so many religions at one point in his life, it portrays a/an 【5】 message in a light that doesn’t seem too preachy（說(shuō)教的）.

【解析】

本文是記敘文。文章介紹了《少年派奇幻漂流記》這部電影的主要情節(jié)，它主要是講Pi的漂流經(jīng)歷，并且有點(diǎn)奇幻色彩。這部影片體現(xiàn)了3D技術(shù)對(duì)于電影拍攝的重要性。

【1】考查名詞。句意：Pi首先介紹了他的名字的由來(lái)和家人如何經(jīng)營(yíng)一家動(dòng)物園，但最終出于經(jīng)濟(jì)原因他的家人需要離開(kāi)印度。Pi的父親決定舉家移民離開(kāi)印度到加拿大，以追求更好的生活，即出于改善家庭經(jīng)濟(jì)的目的。此處需要名詞purposes作介詞for的賓語(yǔ)。故選I。

【2】考查動(dòng)詞。句意：Pi眨眼間就失去了一切和身邊的每個(gè)人，他沒(méi)有指望與孟加拉虎建立牢不可破的聯(lián)系。此處需要填入動(dòng)詞count構(gòu)成短語(yǔ)count on，意為“指望”。起初Pi并沒(méi)指望會(huì)和孟加拉虎相互依賴(lài)而活下去。故選G。

【3】考查名詞。句意：當(dāng)Pi討論在小時(shí)候信仰的幾種不同的宗教時(shí)，這部冒險(xiǎn)電影提供了關(guān)于宗教的相當(dāng)奇妙的信息。這部電影展示的是一部“奇幻漂流記”，即冒險(xiǎn)電影。此處定冠詞the后面需要使用名詞adventure作定語(yǔ)修飾film。故選B。

【4】考查動(dòng)詞。句意：盡管一個(gè)男孩一生中曾經(jīng)信奉過(guò)如此多的宗教似乎很愚蠢，但它以似乎不太講道的角度描繪了一個(gè)宗教信息。此處需要選擇過(guò)去分詞adopted構(gòu)成現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)，Pi尋找信仰而且還信奉了很多宗教。故選C。

【5】考查形容詞。句意：盡管一個(gè)男孩一生中曾經(jīng)接受過(guò)如此多的宗教似乎很愚蠢，但它以似乎不太講道的角度描繪了一個(gè)宗教信息。此處的話(huà)題與宗教有關(guān)，需要形容詞religious作定語(yǔ)修飾message。故選K。

【6】考查名詞。句意：但是，宗教信仰只是你弄清楚自己到底是誰(shuí)的一個(gè)途徑。此處需要名詞route作介詞on的賓語(yǔ)。on your own route to在去……的路上。故選E。

【7】考查形容詞。句意：目睹Pi馴服孟加拉虎Richard Parker的嘗試確實(shí)很有趣，但《少年派奇幻漂流記》中有許多令人難以置信的景象。此處需要形容詞entertaining作表語(yǔ)。故選D。

【8】考查形容詞。句意：這里有鯨魚(yú)，水母，飛魚(yú)，那場(chǎng)災(zāi)難性的風(fēng)暴以及那座有猴子的海藻島。此處需要形容詞disastrous作定語(yǔ)修飾storm。Pi及一行人乘坐的船在暴風(fēng)雨中沉沒(méi)，因此這是災(zāi)難性的風(fēng)暴。故選F。

【9】考查副詞。句意：《少年派奇幻漂流記》從始至終真正地讓觀(guān)眾在視覺(jué)上感到震撼和驚艷。下文提到了這部電影在拍攝的技術(shù)上是很成功的，此處需要副詞visually作狀語(yǔ)修飾breathtaking和amazing。故選H。

【10】考查形容詞。句意：《少年派奇幻漂流記》確實(shí)讓人眼前一亮，這說(shuō)明了3D對(duì)于不僅僅是夏日大片還是電影來(lái)說(shuō)都是很重要的。此處需要形容詞essential作表語(yǔ)，表明3D技術(shù)對(duì)于電影拍攝的重要性。故選A。
