【正文】 ice in New York in 1955. Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library amp。 Museum in 1964 established him as a name. His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people39。s ideas of a museum. The site was an odd trapezoid (梯形) shape. Pei39。s solution was to cut it in two. The resulting building was dramatic, light and elegant—one of the first crowdpleasing cathedrals of modern art. Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (幾何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style. In person, . Pei was goodhumored, charming and unusually modest. His working process was evolutionary, but innovation (創(chuàng)新) was never an intended goal. Stylistic originality is not my purpose, he said. I want to find the originality in the time, the place and the problem.（1）What can we learn about the result of redevelopment of the Louvre Museum?

But in the end, the French—and everyone else—were won over. ”貝聿銘是盧浮宮悠久歷史上的第一位外國(guó)建筑師，最初他的設(shè)計(jì)遭到強(qiáng)烈反對(duì)。但最終，法國(guó)人，以及全世界，都被（他的精妙設(shè)計(jì)所）折服。從而可以推測(cè)，羅浮宮博物館重建非常成功。故選B。 （2）考查句義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第三段中的“His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry.”中的關(guān)鍵詞talent and skill和the use of materials可知，此句字面含義為：他在使用（建筑）材料方面的才華和技藝達(dá)到了詩(shī)一般的境界，即他是應(yīng)用材料方面的專家。故選A。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in ，1955年，貝聿銘在麻省理工學(xué)院和哈佛大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)建筑學(xué)；第五段中的“Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library amp。 Museum in 1964 established him as a name. ”1964年，貝聿銘設(shè)計(jì)了約翰肯尼迪總統(tǒng)圖書館和博物館；“His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people39。s ideas of a museum.” 1978年設(shè)計(jì)了華盛頓國(guó)家美術(shù)館東館；第三段中的“Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was thought as giving the 20th century ‘some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms …”貝聿銘于1983年獲得普利茲克建筑獎(jiǎng)。故選B。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第六段中的“Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (幾何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style.”可知，貝聿銘設(shè)計(jì)的建筑物基于簡(jiǎn)單幾何形狀排列的形式而聞名，從而推斷出，他喜歡簡(jiǎn)單的幾何形狀。故選D。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，句義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇人物類閱讀，要求考生準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，結(jié)合上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀短文，從短文后每題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 One night I received a Facebook message from Laura, a former classmate. Hey Steve, she said, I know you39。ve always been an animal lover. I39。ve just had a baby and I can39。t keep my mini pig. Being fond of animals, I knew I wanted the pig. I just had to figure out how to make it happen. I lived in a twobedroom singlelevel house in Georgetwon, Ontario. It39。s tough to bring a pig back to the house I share with two dogs, two cats, and my lifelong partner. But I was not letting that pig go. So I told Laura I39。d take the animal. When I got home with the pig, I hid her in the bedroom, and began to prepare a dinner for Alisha—her favourite bacon cheeseburgers. It39。s better to make her happy before introducing the new member to her. When I led her to the bedroom and showed her the surprise, Alisha stood in the doorway like a statue. It took her a few seconds to know what I had done. She plained about my unreasonable action. She insisted there was no more room in the house. I knew I was wrong, but I hoped I could smooth things over. Soon enough, the lovely pig did the smoothing for me. Never had we felt such joy as she brought to us. We got her a name Esther. Esther39。s arrival changed our lives. A few weeks later, we decided to stop eating bacon. We figured it was our turn to try to change the world for other animals. A few months later, we moved to a farm where we cared for abandoned animals—so far, six rabbits, six goats, two sheep, one horse, three cows and three chickens.（1）Who does the underlined phrase my lifelong partner in Paragraph 2 refer to?
