课时作业(十一)Ⅰ.阅读理解【语篇解读】本文是说明文。《哈姆雷特》走出传统剧院，在一个特别的地方上演。在这里，观众们须要时常移步，到不同的房间和楼层观看演出。1．答案与解析：D细微环节理解题。由第一和其次段可知，剧院观众通常只在中场休息或演出结束时才起身走动，但在詹姆斯·希尔故居中上演的《哈姆雷特》的场景设置在不同的房间，甚至不同的楼层，这就要求观众随着剧情发展移动到不同的地方观看演出。2．答案与解析：C细微环节理解题。由第三段中的“thegrouppreferstoperforminuntraditionalspaces”和第五段中的“Butwetrytochoosehistoricplacesasmuchaswecan.”可知，该公司喜爱在非传统的地方演出，尤其是有历史意义的场所。3．答案与解析：D词义揣测题。倒数第四段介绍该故居的基本状况，原本是为一位名叫詹姆斯·希尔的铁路商人而建，于1891年建成，现在属于明尼苏达州历史学会。因此，it指代詹姆斯·希尔故居。4．答案与解析：A推理推断题。由最终一段中的“There'salotmorerunningaround”和“there'snowayanystagecouldcompetewiththisplaceforbeauty”可知，他认为在这里演出较以往相比活动量更大，但这个地方的美是其他的舞台不能与之媲美的。【语篇解读】为了提高人们对地震的防范意识，美国政府加大了在防震、预料方面的投入，他们甚至在努力实行措施限制地震的发生。5．答案与解析：B细微环节理解题。依据第一段的第三句可知，地震多发地带被称为“earthquakebelts”。6．答案与解析：A细微环节理解题。依据其次段可知，该地区为地震比较活跃的地区。7．答案与解析：D细微环节理解题。依据最终一段尾句可知。8．答案与解析：B推理推断题。依据科学家的试验，通过向断裂带注水可以引发小地震，从而使地震的能量得到释放，因此也就降低了大地震爆发的可能。Ⅱ.完形填空【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲解并描述了一位苏丹女孩在哥哥的帮助下获得读书机会的故事。1．答案与解析：B考查动词辨析。句意：一些女孩因为父母负担不起学费而无法上学，而且家务负担沉重，占用了她们的时间。A.wait等待；B.afford付得起；C.refuse拒绝；D.promise承诺。依据“becausetheirparentscannotmeetthecosts”(因为他们的父母无法支付费用)可知，设空处需填“付得起”。故选B。2．答案与解析：A考查形容词辨析。句意：一些女孩因为父母负担不起学费而无法上学，而且家务负担沉重，占用了她们的时间。A.heavy重的；B.easy简单的；C.little小的；D.dangerous危急的。依据“housework”和“takesuptheirtime”可知，繁重的家务占据了很多学习的时间。故选A。3．答案与解析：C考查动词辨析。句意：因此，他们的父母不允许他们的女儿上学。A.invite邀请；B.order吩咐；C.allow允许；D.train训练。依据上文描述“girlsfacemanybarriers(障碍)toeducation.”(女孩在接受教化方面面临着很多障碍)可知，父母不允许女孩上学。故选C。4．答案与解析：A考查介词辨析。句意：另一个问题是女孩可能会提前出嫁，通常是被迫出嫁。A.by靠近，在……旁边；B.for为了；C.through通过；D.at在(某时间或时刻)。byforce为固定短语，意为“强迫地”。故选A。5．答案与解析：B考查名词辨析。句意：我们没有权利选择我们想要结婚的人。A.ability实力；B.right权力；C.patience耐性；D.energy精力。依据上文“often__4__force”可知，女孩子们没有选择结婚对象的权利。故选B。6．答案与解析：C考查动词辨析。句意：我们的父母把我们交给了为奶牛付出最高价格的人。A.lend借出；B.show展示；C.give给；D.introduce介绍。依据“whopaysthehighestpriceincows”(为奶牛支付最高的价格的那个人)可知，父母会把女孩们交给为奶牛支付价格最高地人。故选C。7．答案与解析：D考查动词辨析。句意：现在，越来越多的人在挨饿，为了让奶牛活下去，就把女孩嫁出去。A.study学习，探讨；B.move移动；C.hide隐藏；D.live居住，生活。依据上文“whopaysthehighestpriceincows”(为奶牛支付最高的价格地那个人)可知，嫁女儿是为了能够活下去。故选D。8．答案与解析：A考查动词辨析。句意：我上学的时候父母就把我嫁出去了，我不得不辍学。A.quit放弃；B.attend参与；C.start起先；D.finish完成。依据“MyparentsmarriedmeoffwhenIwasstudying”(我上学的
