13.---HowwastheThirdWorldIntelligenceCongressinTianjin,Bella?---Wonderful!ItwasthefirsttimeI______suchintelligentrobots.A.hasseen B.hasbeenseen C.hadseen D.hadbeenseen参考答案：C【详解】考查时态语态。句意：—Bella，在天津举行的第三届世界智力大赛怎么样？—很棒！这是我第一次看到这样的智能机器人。固定句式Itis/wasthe+序数词+timesb从句….意为“这是某人第几次做某事的时候了”，当前面使用is的时候，后面的从句使用现在完成时；当前面使用was的时候，后面的从句使用过去完成时。本句前面使用了was，说明应该使用过去完成时。且主语I与see构成主动关系，要使用主动语态。故C项正确。14.-----Haveyougotanyparticularplansforthecomingholiday?-----Yes._______,I’mgoingtovisitsomehomesfortheoldinthecity.A.Ifever

B.Ifbusy

C.Ifanything

D.Ifpossible参考答案：D。解析：本题考查四个句型结构。Ifever如果有过的话(如果发生过的话)，例如Sheseldom,ifever,goestothecinema.她难得看电影.Ifbusy根据题意，是IfIambusy的省略，与下文语意矛盾；Ifanything意思是“更可能的是，总之”，例如Joeisn’tabadboy.Ifanything,he’saprettygoodone.乔不是一个坏男孩，总之，他是一个非常好的男孩；ifpossible如果可能的话。题意为“如果可能的话，我将去城里的一些老年之家看看。”15.—Whatdoyouthinkhascausedhisheartattack?

33.B

34.C

35.B【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一种新型苹果——宇宙脆的培育过程和特点。【32题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章内容，特别是第一段中的“By1994,threatenedbyvarietiesfromJapanandNewZealand,theU.S.appleindustryandWashingtonStateUniversityagreedthatwehadtogrowourown.”及最后一段中的“Eventually,weendedupwiththeCosmicCrisp.”可知，美国苹果产业培育出一种新型苹果——宇宙脆来应对外来苹果的威胁，本文介绍的就是宇宙脆的培育过程，故D项正确。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的介绍可知，宇宙脆是通过嫁接的方法培育出来的，故B项正确。【34题详解】词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“thosetorootstockstomakethemstartproducingquickly”可知，我们让杂交的种子长成5英尺高的小树，然后把它们嫁接到根茎上让它们快点结果，由此可知画线词词义为“嫁接、连接”，故C项正确。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Itcanspendnineto12monthsinstorage,andstaycrisp,firm,juicyandsweet.”可知，宇宙脆可以贮存9-12个月，并且香脆多汁，也就是贮存时间更长，口感更好，故B项正确。【点睛】科普类说明文的词义猜测题难度较大，有时需要根据上下文和常识相结合的方法来猜测词义，例如本篇第3题，根据常识可知嫁接是农业种植的常用技术，再结合画线词后的“thosetorootstockstomakethemstartproducingquickly”可知，我们让杂交的种子长成5英尺高的小树，然后把它们嫁接到根茎上让它们快点结果，由此可知画线词词义为“嫁接、连接”。19.PhyllisLeeofSingaporeknewsomethingwasn’tright.Heryoungerson,Alex,thensixyearsold,wasgettinggoodgradesinhisprivatekindergartenclasses.ButLeerealizedsomethingwaswrongwhenAlexcamehomeoneday,crying,with“zeroes”onhisChinesespellingtest.Leedecidedtoinvestigate.AccordingtoLee,theteacherwouldfrequentlydescribeAlex’sChinesewritingas‘ghostwritings’andmadehimalaughingstockinclassinsteadofhelpinghimout.Lee,46,spentthenext12monthsteachingAlexandstillhelpshimwhennecessary.ShenotonlytaughthimtheformationoftheChinesewordsbutalsotheiroriginsothathecouldunderstandbetter,oftentakingmorethananhourtoreadasimpleparagraph.VisitstothelibraryandsurfingtheInternetkeptheruptospeedonteachingmaterials.Alex’sgradesimprovedandbytheendofYearOne,hehadbecomeoneofthetopstudentsinChineseinhisclass.AlexiskeepinganA–plusaverageinallsubjects,andhismother’sinvolvementisabigreasonbehindit.Alex,now11,recentlywroteabookrecordinghisstruggleswithChinese,whichaninternationaleducationcenterhaspublishedtoinspire
