FirstCentury.thefilmstarstheactressFrancesMcDormandasa62yearoldwomanwhotravelsinthevastlandsofAmericainordertoexplorelifeasamoderndaynomad.”(改编自美国记者杰西卡·布鲁德2017年的纪实小说《游牧之地:在21世纪的美国幸存》，这部电影由女演员FrancesMcDormand主演，她是一位62岁的老妇人，游历在美国广袤的土地上，探索现代游牧民族的生活。)可知，Nomadland这部电影讲的是一个老妇人作为一个流浪者在美国探索生活的故事。故选C项。【2题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段内容“Withashortyetglitteringresume,Zhao,whowasbornin1982andsenttostudyoverseasin1998,hasgainedattentionfromthefirstfilmdirectedbyherSongsMyBrothersTaughtMein2015beforeaccumulatingmorepopularityfortheawardwinningTheRiderin2017.ThelatterhelpedhertoseizetheattentionofMcDormand,whothenchosetherightsoftheNomadlandbook.”（赵婷出生于1982年，1998年被派往海外留学，她的简历虽短但却闪闪发光。2015年她执导的第一部电影《我的兄弟教我》吸引了人们的注意，2017年她的获奖影片《骑士》更受欢迎。后者帮助她吸引了麦克多蒙德的注意，麦克多蒙德随后选择了《流浪之地》这本书的版权。）可推知，前两部电影为赵婷的历史性成功做出了贡献。故选D项。【3题详解】主旨大意题。由全文大意，尤其是首段“BeijingbornChloeZhaomadeahistoricwin,beingthefirstAsianwomandirectortotakehometheGoldenGlobeAwardforBestDirectoronSundaynightinLosAngeles,causingastiramongdomesticnetizens.”（北京出生的赵婷周日晚上在洛杉矶获得了历史性的胜利，成为首位获得金球奖最佳导演奖的亚洲女导演，在国内网民中引起了轰动。）可知，“赵婷在金球奖上创造历史”作为题目最为恰当。故选A项。【点睛】阅读理解题之细节理解解题要注意：发现细节，十目一行，放慢速度，仔细核对比较，直到找到正确答案。如本文第1题，找出文中提到的“《流浪之地》电影的介绍”，核对第二段和第三段，认真比较，很容易判断正确答案。BForsomepeople,there’snobetterpanionthanmansbestfriendadog.Thisfourleggedpetcanbringfortandjoyandprovidemuchneededexerciseforyouwhenitneedswalkies!ThisprobablyexplainswhydogownershipincreasedlastyearbecausepeoplespentmoretimeathomeduringheCovIDI9lockdown.However,asdemandforanewdogincreased,sodidthepricetag.Popularbreeds,suchasCockapoosandCockerSpaniels,sawevensharperpriceincreases,andpuppieshavebeensellingfor$3,000ormore.Animalwelfarecharitiesfearthathighpricescouldencouragepuppyfarming,smuggling(走私)ordogtheft.Aninvestigationfoundsomebreedershavebeensellingpuppiesandkittensonsocialmediasitessomethingcharitieshavecalled“extremelyirresponsible”.Butdespitesomenewownerspurchasingadoglegally,maybefromarescuecenterorregisteredbreeder,they’veprovedtobeillpreparedforlifewithanewpet,andthepetitselfhasfoundithardtoetotermswithlifeinanewhome.Lookingtothefuture,thereareconcernsaboutthewelfareofthesemuchlovedpets.LanAlkinmanageroftheOxfordshireAnimalSanctuaryintheUK,notes:“Atthemoment,thedogsarehavingagreattime,butseparationanxietycouldstillsurfacewhenpeoplegobacktowork.”AndCliareCalderfromtheUKsDogsTrustrescuecharitysays,“Theeconomicsituationalsomeansthatsomepeoplemayfindtheycan’taffordtolookafteradog.”Themessageisnottobuyadoginhasteandtopickonethatfitsintoourlifestyle.4.Thegreaterdemandfordogscancausethefollowingproblemsexcept________.A.illegaltradeofdogs

用于人类。故选D项。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Haveyoueverfoundthatyouwereabletosleepbetterwithanairconditionerorfanrunningorperhapswiththesoundofrainfallingoutside?___11___Itactsasawaytomaskdistractingsounds.Whitenoiseisusedasbackgroundnoisethatiscreatedtodrownoutannoyingnoises.Oneofthethingsthatmakesnoiseannoyingisthatthemindnoticeschangesinthesoundsoftheenvironment.Nodoubtthisabilityhelpedkeepourancestorsalive,bywarningthemofthefaintsoundmadebyafierceanimal.___12___Itkeepsusawakeorkeepsusfrombeingabletoconcentrate.Whitenoisechangesthebackgroundsound.Theoveralllevelofsoundintheenvironmentishigher,whichraisesthevolumeboundaryoverwhichnoisesmustpassinordertobenoticed.___13___.Sotherearenodetailsforthemindtonotice.Thatiswhyithasafortingqualityitallowsthemindtorelax.___14___Itispopularforhelpingpeoplesleep,andit'salsousefulforhelpingstudentsstudy,orforanyonewhoneedstoconcentrate.Itcalmsandfortsbabies,andisusefulfortravelerswhofindithardtogettosleepindifferentenvironmentswiththeirunfamiliarnoises.Iftrafficsounds,tickingclocks,andotherpeople'sconversationsarebotheringyou,whitenoisecanbeagoodsolution.Manyofficeenvironmentsinstallwhitenoisesystemstohelpminimizedistractionsforofficeworkers,andalsotomaintainspeechprivacy.Aspecializeduseforwhitenoiseisintreatingtinnitus(耳鸣).___15___Whenusedaspartofawelldesignedtreatmentprogram,itcanhelpintrainingthebrain'sneurons(神经元)toignorethesounds.A.Whitenoisehasmanybenefits.B.Besides,thesoundqualityhasnospecialcharacteristics.C.Whattypesofsoundsareexactlyincludedinwhitenoises?D.Ifso,thenyou'realreadyfamiliarwiththeconceptofwhitenoise.E.Tous,however,beingsensitivetoeverytinynoisecanbeaproblem.F.Whitenoisecanoftenbringimmediaterelieffromtheannoyingsoundsoftinnitus.G.Studiessuggestthatusingsoundmaskingintheworkplaceleadstohigherproductivity.【答案】11.D12.E13.B14.A15.F【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章对白色噪音的定义、作用和好处进行了介绍。【11题详解】根据前文“Haveyoueverfoundthatyouwereabletosleepbetterwithanairconditionerorfanrunningorperhapswiththesoundofrainfallingoutside?”（你有没有发现开着空调或电扇，或者在外面淅淅沥沥下雨的声音下你能睡得更好？）和后文“Whitenoiseisusedasbackgroundnoisethatiscreatedtodrownoutannoyingnoises.”（白噪音被用作背景噪音，用来掩盖恼人的噪音。）可知，开着空调或电扇的声音和在外面淅淅沥沥下雨的声音就是白色噪音，前文是在对白色噪音用熟悉的例子作说明，所以选项D（如果是这样，那么您已经熟悉了白色噪音的概念。）切合文意。故选D。【12题详解】根据前文“Nodoubtthisabilityhelpedkeepourancestorsalive,bywarningthemofthefaintsoundmadebyafierceanimal.”（毫无疑问，这种能力帮助我们的祖先存活下来，因为它能警告他们凶猛动物发出的微弱声音。）可知，此处提到了微弱的声音，根据后文“Itkeepsusawakeorkeepsusfrombeingabletoconcentrate.”（它让我们保持清醒或无法集中精力。）可知，此处是指对微弱的声音敏感对我们是一个问题，前后构成转折关系，对应选项E中的转折词however，所以选项E（然而，对我们来说，对每一个微小的噪音都很敏感可能是一个问题。）切合文意。故选E。【13题详解】根据后文“Sotherearenodetailsforthemindtonotice.”（所以没有细节让大脑去注意。）可知，空格处讲的是白色噪音没有细节让大脑去注意的原因，所以选项B（另外，这种音质也没有什么特别的特点。）切合文意。故选B。【14题详解】根据后文“Itispopularforhelpingpeoplesleep,andit'salsousefulforhelpingstudentsstudy,orforanyonewhoneedstoconcentrate.Itcalmsandfortsbabies,andisusefulfortravelerswhofindihardtogettosleepindifferentenvironmentswiththeirunfamiliarnoises.Iftrafficsounds,tickingclocks,andotherpeople'sconversationsarebotheringyou,whitenoisecanbeagoodsolution.”（它很受欢迎，因为它可以帮助人们睡眠，也可以帮助学生学习，或者帮助任何需要集中注意力的人。它能让婴儿安静舒适，对于那些在不同环境中听到不熟悉的噪音而难以入睡的旅行者来说也很有用。如果交通噪音，滴答的时钟，和其他人的谈话打扰你，白色噪音可以是一个很好的解决方案。）可知，此处是讲白色噪音有很多好处。所以选项A（白色噪音有很多好处。）切合文意。故选A。【15题详解】根据前文“Aspecializeduseforwhitenoiseisintreatingtinnitus(耳鸣).”（白色噪音的一个特殊用途是治疗耳鸣。）可知，此处是讲白色噪音可以治疗耳鸣，所以选项F（白色噪音通常能立即缓解耳鸣的恼人声音。）切合文意。故选F。第三部分:语言运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节:完形填空(20个小题;每小题分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。ForweeksthestudentshadbeenengagedincarefulpreparationfortheParents'Nightprogram.Noweverythingwas___16___.Thewallswerefilledwithdisplays,thestudentswith___17___andthetableswithgoodthingstoeat.Thehostwaswellunderway.ThenJimmieDavis___18___togivehisspeech.Thiswasthe___19___hehadlookedforwardtoformanyweeks.Ashewasonthestage,hecaughtaglimpseofhismother'sbeamingfaceandhisfather's___20___appearance.Hestartedwithagreatburstofenthusiasm.Hewas___21___thathislistenerswerethinkinghighlyofhimbytheircarefulattention.Then___22___happened.Theworldseemedtoswimbeforehim.Hesloweddownandstopped.Hisfaceflushed(变红),his___23___soughteachothercrazilyandindesperationhelooked___24___towardshisteacher,Mr.Smith.Andeverprepared,havingheardtheboyishmasterpiece___25___againandagainappliedthemissingwordsandtheboy___26___.Butsomehowitwasdifferentnow.Jimmie___27___againandtheteacherremindedhimagain.Forthe___28___twominutes,thespeechseemedmoretheteacher'sthantheboy's.ButJimmiefinishedit.Therewasaheavy___29___intheheartoftheboy,knowingthathehadfailed.Embarrassmentwasclearly___30___onthefaceoftheboysfatherandmother.Theaudience___31___inaperfunctory(例行公事的)way,sorryforandpityingtheboywhotheythoughthad___32___.Buttheteacherwasonhisfeet,saying:"I’m___33___toseeaboymakingagloriousvictoryoutofwhatmighthavebeenamiserablefailure.AndI’mconfidentthatyouwillneverseea___34___demonstrationofthespiritofplayingtheunderdifficulties!”Thecrowdexplodedintothunderousnow.Theold___35___ofassurance(确信)wasbackonthefaceoftheboy'sfather.16.A.inturn
