50.flowers本文为介绍说明文。文章介绍了暖泉镇元宵佳节期间的“打树花”习俗的起源。41.考查形容词最高级。根据语境可知，此处指“最美丽的展出之一”，beautiful为多音节形容词，应使用most构成最高级。故填most。42.考查非谓语动词。此处与thetradition构成逻辑动宾关系，应使用过去分词作后置定语，意为“被称为打树花的传统活动”。故填called。43.考查反身代词。句意：被称为打树花的传统活动涉及到有经验的铁匠亲自泼洒熔化的铁水。根据句意，此处应使用反身代词。故填themselves。44.考查动词时态。句意：打树花起源于300年前。datebackto“追溯到”，要求使用一般现在时的主动形式。故填dates。45.考查定语从句。此处为定语从句，先行词为300yearsago，从句主谓宾齐全，连词在从句中作时间状语，应使用表时间的关系副词。故填when。46.考查动词时态。此处描述的是过去的动作，应使用一般过去时。故填found。47.考查介词搭配。similar与介词to搭配，意为“与……相似”。故填to。48.考查副词。此处修饰动词gained，应使用副词形式。故填gradually。49.考查冠词。此处泛指“一个甚至更令人惊奇的展出”，even是元音音素开头的词，应使用不定冠词an。故填an。50.考查名词单复数。根据语境可知，此处指“很多绿色和白色的花”，肯定不是一朵，应使用复数形式。故填flowers。【名师点睛】本题中的第5小题考查了定语从句中关系副词的使用，这里很容易误填which。定语从句中关系代词与关系副词的区分是语法填空和改错中是经常考查的，也是难点。现简单总结如下：基本方法如下：先把主句和定语从句分开，再找出定语从句所修饰的名词/代词（即先行词），然后放入定语从句中，看看这两者的搭配情况。1）如果定语从句和该先行词可以直接相连，且在从句中充当主语/宾语/表语的话，则用关系代词。因为关系代词也属于代词，而代词功能同名词，在句子中一般充当语/宾语/表语。如：Thisisthecity(which/that)youvisitedlastyear.解析：定语从句所修饰的先行词是thecity，放入定语从句youvisitedlastyear中，则它直接充当visited的宾语，变成youvisitedthecitylastyear.2）如果定语从句和该先行词无法直接相连，必须另外多加上介词，并在定语从句中充当状语时，则使用关系副词。先行词是地点，用where；先行词是时间，用when；先行词是原因，用why。如：Thisisthecitywhereyoustayedlastyear.解析：定语从句所修饰的先行词也是thecity，将其放入定语从句中不能直接作成分，必须加上介词in，一起做从句的地点状语，即定语从句变为youstayedinthecitylastyear.三、阅读理解19.Humansandgorillassharedevolutionfor23millionyears.Theirpathsseparatedonlysixmillionyearsago.Researchonhowgorillascommunicatecanhelpusunderstandhumanlanguagedevelopment.Understandinghowthebrainworkshelpsusseeaconnectionbetweenlanguagedevelopmentandnon-verbalsigns.Thesesignsormovementsincludethingslikethewaywemoveourhandsorbodiesorthedifferentexpressionsourfaceshaveindifferentsocialsituations.Anewstudyongorillasshowedthattherightsideofthebodyiscontrolledbytheleftpartofthebrainanditisalsothelocationforlanguagedevelopment.Twocameraswereusedtofilmallofoneape’smovements.Oneofthefirstresultswasthatgorillasusetheirrighthandsmorewhentheyaredoingactionswiththeirheadsormouthsatthesametime.Thisshowsthatthereisaconnectionbetweenhowourbrainworksandthereasonweuseonesideofourbodymorethantheother.Inaddition,wecanusetheresultsofthestudyandourknowledgeaboutbrainstohelpusunderstandmoreabouthowlanguagefirstdevelopedinhumans.DrForrester,whodidthestudy,saystheresultscanbeusefulinotherways,suchasunderstandinglanguagedevelopmentinchildren.Forexample,somechildrenhaveseriousillnesscalled“autism”whichcanstopthemcommunicatingnormallywithpeople.Itmightbepossibletousethesamestudymethodtofindoutwhichchildrenhavethisillnesswhentheyareveryyoung.Doctorswillthenbeabletostarttreatmentearly.12.Whichofthefollowingmayhaveaconnectionwithright-handedness?A.Communication.
