(春分时期，竖蛋是中国一种流行的游戏。这是一个追溯至4000年前的古老风俗)”可知，这里介绍了春分的传统活动。由此可知，文章中并没有提到春分的历史故事。故选D。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Toprayforhealth,theywrotetheirmedicalissuesonapaperkite.

(为了祈祷健康，他们把自己的医疗问题写在一个纸风筝上)”可知，古代人通过放风筝乞求健康。故选B。【3题详解】推理判断题。阅读文章内容，并根据第一段“HerearethingsyoumaynotknowabouttheSpringEquinox.(以下是一些你可能不知道的关于春分的事情)”可知，本文给我们读者科普了春分的相关知识，此处you指的是我们广大读者，所以本文的读者对象是普通大众。故选A。BIcanrememberwhenmydaughterMaggie,whoisnowsix,usedtocrawlintomylapandsay,“Daddy,readmeastory.”Lastyearsheannounced,“Daddy,I’mgoingtoreadyouastory.”Maggiewasatelevisionchild.Whenshefirstbecameconsciousofanythingbeyondeatingandsleeping,theTVsetwasrightthere,anditsooncommandedherattention.Afewyearsago,wewereworriednotonlythatwe’dnevergetthechildrenawayfromthesetlongenoughtolearntoread,butthatwe’dforgethowtoreadourselves.Butin1955therewasnotonlymorereadingthanbeforeTV,butmorereadingthaneverbeforeinhistory.Clearly,readinghassurvivedtelevisionasithassurvivedalotofotherthings.WhenIwassix,awailwentupaboutmenaces(威胁)toreadingathome:motorcarsandcinema.WhenMaggiecamealong,therewastelevision.Themotorcar,theradio,thecinemaandtelevisiondotakeupalotoftime.Well,we’vegotmoretime.Whenmymotherwasagirl,peopleworkedabout60hoursaweek.Nowit’s44.WhenMaggiegrowsup,it’llbe30.Andthere’llbenumerousgadgetstodoherhousework.She’llhavetoread.Youcan’twatchTVallday.AtpresentMaggieisreadingaboutJohnnyWoodchuck.Aheadofher—andI’malittleenvious—areherfirstbrushwithBlackBeauty,Alicesteppingthroughthelookingglass,HuckandJimdriftingdowntheMississippi,theemotionalstormsofShakespeare,thespiritualagoniesofTolstoy.Forreadingisn’talljoy.Likelifeitself,it’smixedwithmanymoods,fromecstasy(狂喜)todespair.Maggiewilllearntotaketheroughwiththesmooth,gatheringfromtheancientwisdomoflong-deadgeniusalittlefiretoenrichherspirit.Andsomeday,ifshe’slucky,she’llgetthebiggestthrillofall,whenalittlegirlclimbsintoherlapandannounces,“Mummy,I’mgoingtoreadyouastory.”4.WhydotheyounggenerationlikeMaggiehavemoreaccesstoreading?A.Theyfacelessworkingpressure.B.Thereismoretimeavailableforreading.C.Theirparentsencouragethemmoreoften.DTheyhaveastrongerdesireforknowledge.5.WhatmakestheauthorenviousofMaggie?A.Herexposuretoclassicreading.

onpayingforhiscreations.(人们非常喜欢沃伦的自行车，以至于他们坚持为他的发明买单。)“可知，沃伦的行为受到了人们的欢迎,并愿意为此买单。结合后文沃伦所说的话"Forme,seeingthebikesIcreatedisenough(对我来说，看到我创造的自行车就足够了)"可知，选项C"但金钱从来不是他的主要动机。"在该处承上启下，承接意思的转折，符合题意。故选C。【20题详解】根据全文可知，沃伦通过装扮自行车帮助妻子认车、认路，由于人们的喜欢，进而把街上的自行车装扮鲜艳，并安上代表着爱和幸福的名字，说明沃伦是一一个具有爱心的人。结合最后一段前文提到"Otherthanbeingacreativeartist,Warrenisalsoareallyniceguy.HisInstagrampostsarefloodedwithencouragementsandwordsoflove,andyoucanfeelthetimeandlovethathepoursintoeverybikethathecreates.(除了是一个有创造力的艺术家，沃伦也是一个非常好的人。他在Instagram.上的帖子充斥着鼓励和爱的话语，你可以感受到他把时间和爱倾注在他创造的每一辆自行车上。)"可知，沃伦是一个心中装满爱的人，F项"我们真的需要更多像theFlowerBikeMan(装扮自行车人)这样的人"对全文进行总结及主题升华，符合题意。故选F。第二部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Isla’sbigdaywasfinallyhere.Shehadbeenadmittedintothelawschoolofher____21____,andwastoflytheretobeginhernewlife.Althoughshehadgottenthenewsofher____22____twomonthsago,itwasn’tuntilshegotupfromtheplaneseatthatsherealizedhow____23____shereallywas.Herlegswereshaking,herheartwas____24____,andherforeheadwassweating.Havingworkedso____25____togethere,sheknewthatshehadnothingtobeafraidof____26____,theworldoutsidehernewapartmentlookedmuchtooscaryto____27____.Thebrightsunthatshewassousedtoseeingwasnowheretobeseen.Everyone’saccentsseemedcompletely____28____,andthepeopleevenseemedtallerthannormal.Shestayedinthe____29____ofherapartmentuntilitwastimeforherclassthefollowingafternoon.Astheprofessoraskedsomebasicquestionstoseewhat_____30_____everyonewasat,Isla’smindwentcompletely_____31_____.“Ohno!”shethoughttoherself.“I’mnoteven_____32_____tobehere!Everyoneknowssomuchmorethanme.”Justthen,theprofessorpointedatherandaskedheraquestion._____33_____asshewas,theanswerwasjustblurtedout(脱口而出)instinctively.“_____34_____!”saidtheteacher.“You’lldojustgreathere,”she_____35_____her.Astheteacherwalkedaway,Islawasallsmiles.21.A.courses
