2024年9月八校高三联合检测·英语参考答案、提示及评分细则阅读(共20小题；每小题2.5分，满分50分题号2122232425262728293031323334353637383940答案ACBBCBACDADCADBFAGED完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)题号414243444546474849505152535455答案DBACADCBDACBDAC21.A细节理解题。根据TheGrandCanal,theworld’slongesthuman-maderiver部分中“InscribedasaUNESCOWorldHeritageSitein2014,theGrandCanal-alsoknownasJing-HangCanal”可知，大运河被列为世界遗产。22.C细节理解题。根据UniversalBeijingResort部分中“Thereareseventhemedlandsofferingdozensofshowsandrides,manyofthemoutdoors”可知，北京环球影视城有很多户外的演出和游乐设施。23.B细节理解题。根据Glamping(豪华露营)andstargazingatNingxia’sDesertStarHotel部分中“Thecomplexoffersindoorandoutdoordiningoptions,aswimmingpool,anastronomy-themedtheaterandfamily-friendlysandactivities.”可知，游客可以玩沙子。24.B细节理解题。根据第一段中“Thisgavehimatoughtimeinhischildhood”和“Hedidn’thavealotoffriendsandtheseveralrejectionslefthimfeellonely.”可知。25.C细节理解题。根据第二段中“Heaimedatmakingpeoplelaugh”可知。26.B细节理解题。根据第三段中“Interestinglyherealizedthatwheneverheplayedsomecharacters,hespokefluently.”可知。27.A推理判断题。根据文章对Rowan的描述，尤其是文中不断提到他不放弃，继续努力以及末段内容可推知。28.C细节理解题。通读第二段内容，尤其是第二句中“Butthequestionishowthequeenreceivesherantigen(抗原)supply”可知，蚁后是如何获得抗原的是Harwood博士困惑并想解开的问题。29.D推理判断题。通读第三段和第四段可知，为了验证Harwood博士的猜想，他们把约150只保育蜂分组，用糖水喂养这些保育蜂，并在其中三个蜂巢的糖水中加入了失活的幼虫芽孢杆菌，然后研究人员在显微镜下追踪被染色了的幼虫芽孢杆菌的情况。故他们是通过追踪特殊的细菌来展开实验。30.A推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Alltold,thesefindingssuggestthatnursebeesareindeed,viatheirroyaljelly,passingantigensontothequeen,thenintoeggs.Theyalsomean,becausetheyoungreceiveroyaljellyforthefirstfewdaysaftertheyhatch,thenursesaregivingtheyoungthesecondantigens.”可知，这些发现表明，保育蜂确实通过蜂王浆将抗原传给蚁后，以便将其接种到卵中。这也意味着，因为幼虫在孵化后的头几天也会接受蜂王浆，所以保育蜂也在给它们的幼虫注射疫苗。由此可推知，每只幼蜂要接种两次疫苗，而每次都离不开保育蜂。31.D文章出处题。通读全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了蜜蜂是最先发明疫苗并实施疫苗接种的计划的新发现，所以应该出自与医学相关的杂志。32.C细节理解题。根据第一段中“IntheMiddleAgesyouneverknewwhoyouweregoingtomeetwhentravellingonhorseback.Mostpeopleareright-handed,soifastrangerpassedbyontherightofyou,yourrighthandwouldbefreetouseyourswordifrequired.”可知，在中世纪人们可能会受到陌生人的攻击。33.A词义猜测题。根据第二段中“whenPope(教皇)Bonifacedeclaredthatallpilgrims(朝圣者)travellingtoRomeshouldkeeptotheleft”可知，当时教皇博尼法斯八世宣布，所有前往罗马的朝圣者都应该靠左行走，也就是说这条规则在公元1300年得到官方认可，从句意可以推断出sanctioned表示“认可”，与recognized意思相符。34.D观点态度题。根据第三段中“Sittingonthelefthowevermadeitdifficulttojudgethetrafficcomingtheotherway,asanyonewhohasdrivenaleft-handdrivecaralongthewindinglanesofBritainwillagree!”可知，18世纪末的司机对于左侧驾驶持有否定的态度。35.B标题判断题。根据第一段中“TheBritishhasobeyedthe‘keeptotheleft’ruleforlong.Haveyoueverwonderedwhy?Thereisahistoricalreasonforthis:it’salltodowithkeepingyourswordhandfree!”及下文内容可知，本文主要介绍了英国人靠左行驶的原因。36.F根据上文“Itisnotmerelyadesirablequalitybutanabsolutenecessityinaworldfilledwithchaos，controversy，andconflicts.(在一个充满混乱、争议和冲突的世界里，它不仅是一种可取的品质，而且是绝对必要的。)”和下文“Itshinesourwaythroughdarkness.(它照亮我们穿越黑暗的道路。)”可知，智慧可以为我们的世界导航，照亮前方的道路，所以，空处应该是将智慧比作灯塔。F项(为了在其中航行，智慧成为我们的指路明灯。)承上启下，符合语境。故选F项。37.A上文“Althoughthesecharactershavegiveneveryoneofustonsofinspiration,wisdomactuallylieswithinourselves.(虽然这些角色给了我们每个人无数的灵感，但智慧其实在于我们自己。)”和下文“Andhow?(那怎么做呢?)”说明虽然童话故事和魔幻电影里的角色让我们感受到智慧，但获取和运用智慧在于我们自己。空处应该进一步引出我们和智慧的关系。A项(个人需要把它带出来。)承上启下，其中it指代上文提到的wisdom，且引出下文“个人怎样将智慧带出来”的内容。故选A项。38.G下文“Youwillnevergrowfrombeinginyourcomfortzone,whichiswhyyouneedtogetoutofit.Dochangeyourroutineandexperienceasmuchaswhatlifetakesyouto!(你永远不会从舒适区中成长，这就是为什么你需要摆脱它。一定要改变你的日常生活和经历，尽可能多地改变生活!)”说明应该开始新经历。G项(开始新的经历是一种获得智慧的途径。)符合语境。故选G项。39.E上文“Whatifyouaredesperateforpersonalgrowthandimprovement?(如果你渴望个人成长和进步呢?)”提出假设，空处应该会对假设做出解答或说明。E项(要做到这一点，一个捷径就是找有智慧的人做你的导师。)对上文的问题给出了回答，下文“Themoretimeyouspendwiththem,themoretransferofknowledgetherewillbe.(你和他们相处的时间越长，学到的知识就越多。)”中的them呼应wisepeople。故选E项。40.D根据上文“Romewasnotbuiltinaday.(罗马不是一天建成的。)”和下文“Itisimportanttoacknowledgethatittakesaspanofyourlifeandcontinuousefforttomatureinwisdomasyounavigate(找到正确的方法)life’schallenges.(重要的是要认识到，当你面对生活的挑战时，你需要一段时间的生活和不断的努力来获得成熟的智慧。)”可知，此段讲获取智慧不是一蹴而就的，需要不断努力。D项(记住，发展智慧是无止境的。)承上启下，和上文形成对比，引出下文。故选D项。41.D根据第四段中“Iwitnessedthebuildingofstrongconnectionswithotherorganizations”可知，绿色和平组织的志愿者们塑造了一个更绿色、更公平的世界愿景。shape在这里是动词，意为“塑造”。42.B根据下文“lookingback,Iseehow45impactfulthisjourneyhasbeen,notonlyformebutalsoforthecommunities”可知，志愿活动对志愿者本人及社区都有很大的影响。此处指作者最初加入这个组织时，不知道这次经历将会如何改变作者的人生和其对地球的奉献。transform意为“改变”，符合语境。43.A根据下文“exchanged44withfellowmembers”可知，通过绿色和平组织，作者接触了其他人。connectwithsb.意为“与某人建立良好关系；与某人沟通”。44.C根据语境可知，此处指作者与组织中的其他志愿者交流经验。experience意为“经验”，符合语境。45.A下文提到作者看到当地社区采取行动应对环境问题，此处指志愿活动会产生令人难以置信的影响。incredibly意为“令人难以置信地”，符合语境。46.D根据第三段中“andthepassioneachofusnurturesfortheenvironment”提示可知，人们出于对保护环境的热情去做志愿者。passion意为“激情；热情”，符合语境。47.C根据下文“Whetherinthefightagainstclimatechange,thedefenseofforests,ortheprotectionofoceans,eachofusplaysa49roleinourownway.”可知，志愿者在与气候变化作斗争、保护森林、保护海洋方面发挥了重要作用，因此作者认为志愿活动是非常有意义的。meaningful意为“有意义的；重要的”，符合语境。48.B根据语境可知，志愿活动需要每个人的支持。support意为“支持”，符合语境。49.D志愿者在与气候变化作斗争、保护森林和保护海洋等方面以自己的方式发挥了关键作用。decisive意为“决定性的；关键的”，符合语境。50.A根据下文“awareness”可知，此处指地方社区在环境保护方面
