32.C

33.E

34.F

35.B【分析】本文属于说明文，介绍英国靠左驾驶、水槽边有冷热两个水龙头以及喝茶加牛奶的习俗及其来源。【31题详解】分析文章可知，第二段至第四段分别介绍英国靠左驾驶、水槽边有冷热两个水龙头以及喝茶加牛奶的习俗及其来源，G选项，以下就是三个比较特殊的英国习惯的来源，开启下面的三段，切题，故选G。【32题详解】根据本空后一句whenyourememberthatright-handedpeoplewearaswordontheirlefthip.可知，如果你还记得在中世纪或者罗马时代，习惯用右手的人会把剑佩戴在臀部左侧，故C选项，这个不寻常的行为就讲得通了，后一句讲原因，前一句讲结果，切题，故选C。【33题详解】根据前一句VisitorstotheUKthathavejustwashedtheirhandsinanold-fashionedsinkmightbewonderingwhyonetapisonlyforhotwater，theothercold.可知，去英国的游客会注意传统的水盆边，有两个水龙头，一个冷水，一个热水，会很奇怪。E选项，用任何一个水龙头都会让洗手变得不舒服，讲述上一句现象的影响，切题，故选E。【34题详解】根据前一句ForthemajorityofBrits，thecupsavailablecouldn’tstandtheheatoftheboilingwaterandwouldbreak，somilkwasaddedfirst.可知，当时，大多数英国人能够使用的杯子无法承受开水的热量就会破裂，因此他们就先把牛奶加进去。F选项，这样就会降低杯子的温度，使之能够正常使用，讲述前一情况的原理，切题，故选F。【35题详解】根据文章可知，本处是对上文的总结，而B选项Thereisamethodtothemadness，看似疯狂，实则有理，很好对上文进行总结，切题，故选B。【点睛】七选五做题步骤。先确定出题的位置；读题干，再读需要填入句子的上下句，画出关键词；读文章各段落，确定段落中心句和文章主题句；通读文章确定上下句和选项之间的逻辑关系。若空格位置设在段首，则需要：1）查找同义词或其他相关的词，推断出主题句。2）锁定关键词，然后在并列、转折、因果等选项中查找相关特征词。通常正确答案的最后一句与空白后的第一句在意思上是紧密衔接的。比如小题1，分析文章可知，第二段至第四段分别介绍英国靠左驾驶、水槽边有冷热两个水龙头以及喝茶加牛奶的习俗及其来源，G选项，以下就是三个比较特殊的英国习惯的来源，开启下面的三段，切题，故选G。三、阅读理解18.Candogsandcatsliveinperfectharmonyinthesamehome?Peoplewhoarethinkingaboutadoptingadogasafriendfortheircatsareworriedthattheywillfight.Arecentresearchhasfoundanewrecipeofsuccess.Accordingtothestudy,ifthecatisadoptedbeforethedog,andiftheyareintroducedwhenstillyoung(lessthan6monthsforcats,ayearfordogs),itishighlyprobablethatthetwopetswillgetalongswimmingly.Two-thirdsofthehomesinterviewedreportedapositiverelationshipbetweentheircatanddog.However,itwasn'tallsweetnessandlight.Therewasareportedcoldnessbetweenthecatanddogin25%ofthehomes,whileaggressionandfightingwereobservedin10%ofthehomes.Onereasonforthisisprobablythatsomeoftheirbodysignalswerejustopposite.Forexample,whenacatturnsitsheadawayitsignalsaggression,whileadogdoingthesamesignalssubmission.Inhomeswithcatsanddogslivingpeacefully,researchersobservedasurprisingbehavior.Theyarelearninghowtotalkeachother'slanguage.Itisasurprisethatcatscanlearnhowtotalk‘dog’anddogscanlearnhowtotalk‘cat’.What'sinterestingisthatbothcatsanddogshaveappearedtodeveloptheirintelligence.Theycanlearnhowtoreadeachother'sbodysignals,suggestingthatthetwomayhavemoreincommonthanwepreviouslysuspected.Oncefamiliarwitheachother'spresenceandbodylanguage,catsanddogscanplaytogether,greeteachothernosetonose,andenjoysleepingtogetheronthesofa.Theycaneasilysharethesamewaterbowlandinsomecasesgroom(梳理)eachother.Thesignificanceoftheresearchoncatsanddogsmaygobeyondpets─topeoplewhodon'tgetalong,includingneighbors,colleaguesatwork,andevenworldsuperpowers.Ifcatsanddogscanlearntogetalong,surelypeoplehaveagoodchance.5.Somecatsanddogsmayfightwhen________.A.theymisunderstoodeachother'ssignalsB.theylookawayfromeachotherC.theyarecoldtoeachotherD.theyareintroducedatanearlyage6.Whatisfoundsurprisingaboutcatsanddogs?A.Theyeatandsleepeachother.B.Theylearntospeakeachother'slanguage.C.Theyobserveeachother'sbehaviors.D.Theyknowsomethingfromeachother'svoices.7.ItissuggestedinParagraph4thatcatsanddogs________.A.havecommoninterestsB.haveacommonbodyla
