C.Not immediately obviousD.Not extremely attractive(4)What do we know about infrasound from the last paragraph? A.It can39。t be known to people.B.It makes audiences relaxed.C.It is within the range of the human ear.D.It will be used more in movies in the future.【答案】 (1)B(2)D(3)C(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,電影和音樂的關(guān)系密切,音樂對(duì)于電影影響重大,作者說明了電影制作者如何用音樂來渲染氣氛。 (1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的But try watching them without the background music and you just might decide they39。re not so different after all.可知,但是試著在沒有背景音樂的情況下看它們,你可能會(huì)覺得它們并沒有什么不同。所以通過反向推理,要是有了背景音樂,恐怖電影和喜劇電影就截然不同了。故判斷出恐怖電影和喜劇電影的區(qū)別在于他們的背景音樂。故選B。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的Using this knowledge, posers use sudden changes in film music speed to create fear among audiences.可知,利用這一知識(shí),作曲家利用電影音樂速度的突然變化在觀眾中制造恐懼。所以音樂的突然變化會(huì)使觀眾恐懼。故選D。 (3)考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第三段中的All that audiences are supposed to feel is a heightened sense of emotion—they shouldn39。t realize what39。s causing it. Only when the music is taken out of the film should audiences understand its effects.可知,觀眾應(yīng)該感受到的只是一種強(qiáng)烈的情感——他們不應(yīng)該意識(shí)到是什么導(dǎo)致了這種情感。只有當(dāng)音樂被從電影中刪除時(shí),觀眾才能理解它的影響。所以這段在解釋最好的電影音樂是不易被觀眾察覺的音樂。也就是對(duì)subtle的解釋。故第三段加下劃線的subtle一詞是C選項(xiàng)“不明顯的”。故選C。 (4)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的but he predicted that we will see more of it used in movies in the future可知,但他預(yù)測(cè)“我們將來會(huì)看到更多的電影會(huì)使用它”。所以從最后一段可知,infrasound將在未來的電影中被更多地使用。故選D。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇文化類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。8.閱讀理解 On the banks of Tanzania39。s Lake Eyasi lives the world39。s last huntergatherer tribe (部落) — the Hadza. They don39。t grow food, raise animals or build houses. Instead they live a life unchanged for more than ten thousand years. Their world is one of plete freedom — something modern society can barely imagine and is unlikely to ever experience, let alone have the skills to stay alive. Text messages and phone calls don39。t exist. Nor do cars and electricity. No jobs, timetables, and social structures. No laws, taxes and unbelievably, no money — the closest thing to currency (交易) is the trade for a pair of shorts with a neighboring tribe. We spent our time with the Hadza hunting baboons (狒狒), a daily activity for the men. Their land is packed with sharp bushes, poisonous snakes and maneating lions. But a successful hunting trip is the difference between eating or going hungry. The Hadza diet consists mainly of honey, fruit and meat. Men often hunt in pairs to shoot animals with bows and arrows. The Hadza show us how to track animals, from baboons to snakes to lions. They are hugely skilled with their handmade bows and arrows — we have a go and barely get the arrow to go three feet in front of us. The language of the Hadza is believed to be the oldest stillspoken language known to man. The Hadza don39。t have conflict, and have no memory of starvation. Their population never reaches numbers that cannot be supported through hunting or gathering. They never get from their land more than they need. Unlike modernday office workers, the Hadza enjoy an extraordinary amount of free time. Their “work” — hunting for food — takes up around five hours of their day. They39。ve been in such a state of peaceful existence for thousands of years.(1)We can learn from the text that the Hadza_______. A.lead a very simple lifeB.live on traditional agricultureC.have their own system of currencyD.show a lot of interest in new technology(2)Which of the following can describe the Hadza39。s environment? A.Stressful.B.Comfortable.C.Exciting.D.Dangerous.(3)The relationship between the Hadza and nature_______. A.is going wrongB.is full of conflictC.is in perfect harmonyD.is changing all the time(4)Why does the author e to visit the Hadza? A.To study their native language.B.To get to know their way of life.C.To learn survival skills from them.D.To persuade them to protect animals.【答案】 (1)A(2)D(3)C(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了哈扎人的生活方式:他們生活簡(jiǎn)單,主要以狩獵為生。他們和大自然和諧相處,長(zhǎng)期以來過著平和的生活。 (1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段和第二段中的“Instead they live a life unchanged for more than ten thousand years. Text messages and phone calls don39。t exist. Nor do cars and electricity. No jobs, timetables, and social structures. No laws, taxes and unbelievably, no money — the closest thing to currency (交易) is the trade for a pair of shorts with a neighboring tribe.”可知,他們過著一萬年不變的生活……短信和電話根本不存在。汽車和電力也沒有。沒有工作、時(shí)間表和社會(huì)結(jié)構(gòu)。沒有法律、稅收。難以置信的是,沒有錢。由此可以推知,the Hadza過著非常簡(jiǎn)單的生活。故選A。 (2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“Their land is packed with sharp bushes, poisonous snakes and maneating lions”可知,他們的土地上滿是鋒利的灌木叢,毒蛇和食人獅。由此可知,他們的環(huán)境非常危險(xiǎn)。故選D。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“The Hadza don39。t have conflict, and have no memory of starvation. Their population never reaches numbers that cannot be supported through hunting or gathering. They never get from their land more than they need.”可知,哈扎人沒有沖突,也沒有饑餓的記憶。它的人口從未達(dá)到通過狩獵或采集無法維持的數(shù)量。他們從自己的土地上得到的東西從來不超過他們所需要的。由此可知,他們和自然和諧相處。故選C。 (4)考查推理判斷。縱觀全文可知,本文介紹了哈扎人的生活方式:他們生活簡(jiǎn)單,主要以狩獵為生。他們和大自然和諧相處,長(zhǎng)期以來過著平和的生活。由文章的主要內(nèi)容可以推知,作者來參觀the Hadza就是為了了解他們的生活方式。故選B。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及推理判斷題型的考查,是一篇文化類閱讀,要求考生根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。9.閱讀理解 Looking to have a rest after the working days?Check out to see if the following events are in your area!Northside FestivalDescription: The music festival consists of artists, such as Sidney Gish and Orion Sun, free cake for everyone!
