河北省石家庄二中2020-2021学年高二8月线上考试（一）英语试题 第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）‎ 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）‎ 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A While there is a slight chance that you touch down on the surface of the moon, there are some places you can visit that are tied to the Apollo 11.‎ The U.S. Space & Rocket Center, Huntsville, Alabama Creating the Saturn V rocket that drove the crew of the Apollo 11 was the responsibility of a team of engineers in Huntsville. At the U.S. Space & Rocket Center, you can explore dozens of interactive exhibits, including “Space Craze”, a look at the public’s strong interest in all things related to space through the pop culture.‎ Meteor Crater, Flagstaff, Arizona Armstrong and his fellow were trained for moon exploration at a variety of places, including Meteor Crater, one of the most perfectly preserved impact craters on the planet. Today the Meteor Crater Visitor Center includes the 4-D ride “Collision Experience” and breathtaking tours around the edge of the crater itself.‎ The Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral, Florida Every Apollo mission was started from the Kennedy Space Center, which remains an active launch site. Bus tours visit mission-critical areas of Kennedy Space Center and the Apollo/Saturn V Center, which houses a complete Saturn V rocket and a moon rock you can touch. Come during a scheduled launch, and you can purchase a special viewing package getting you a clear view of the launch.‎ Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas It’s here that every aspect of the Apollo 11 mission was monitored. Now fully repaired, the control center is open to tour via the official visitor’s center. View astronaut training equipment and the largest collection of moon rocks.‎ ‎1. In which place are you required to tour in a bus?‎ A. The U.S. Space & Rocket Center. B. Meteor Crater.‎ C. Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center. D. The Kennedy Space Center.‎ ‎2. What can we learn about Meteor Crater?‎ A. It houses a complete Saturn V rocket and a moon rock.‎ B. It is one of the training places for astronauts of Apollo 11.‎ C. It allows one to view the largest collection of moon rocks.‎ D. It provides dozens of interactive exhibits for visitors to explore.‎ ‎3. What can you do in Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center? ‎ A. Touch a moon rock. B. Enjoy the 4-D ride.‎ C. See astronaut training equipment. D. View a rocket launch.‎ B A year ago, I decided to create a more environmentally friendly kitchen, focusing on reducing the single-use products such as plastic bags and paper towels. I’m not going to sugarcoat my experience. It takes commitment and a willingness to change long-held habits. In creating my kitchen, I tried a lot of different alternative products and some plain old common sense. The result, however, has been worth the effort. I’m recycling more and relying less on single-use products and I’m saving money too.‎ I’m not kidding when I say that I used to really love plastic storage bags, so this was, perhaps, the biggest challenge for me. Switching to reusable storage bags is a financial investment, but the cost is reasonable considering that I previously spent at least $ 100 annually on single-use plastic bags and wrap. I will check online periodically for recycling updates, where a zero-waste box for kitchen items is offered, from party supplies to mixed-material food containers.‎ I’m a clean freak (怪人) and used to go through an amount of paper towels on a daily basis, but it’s easy enough to take old T-shirts or towels and cut them up to use to wipe down surfaces. I’m also a fan of bamboo paper towels, which have the look and feel of traditional paper towels, yet are made from a highly renewable source and also break down in just 45 days. Better yet, they can be reused up to 100 times. As for kitchen sponges (海绵擦), I keep an eye out for those made with natural and recyclable materials.‎ When purchasing household items online from companies like Amazon or Jet, I will ask to ‎ have them shipped in as few boxes as possible or as small a box as possible if a single item is to be sent. I’ll let the company know that they should pay more attention to how it is packaging items for delivery.‎ ‎4. What is the author’s main purpose of creating her kitchen?‎ A. To save money. ‎ B. To reduce waste and recycle more.‎ C. To change her long-held habits. ‎ D. To make it cleaner and more practical.‎ ‎5. What does the underlined word “sugarcoat” in paragraph 2 mean?‎ A. Make attractive. B. Get interested.‎ C. Show off. D. Give up.‎ ‎6. In creating her kitchen, what does the author do?‎ A. Begins to recycle more single-use plastic bags.‎ B. Goes through an amount of paper towels on a daily basis.‎ C. Checks online periodically to buy zero-waste box.‎ D. Chooses to use the recyclable or reusable kitchen items.‎ ‎7. What can we learn about the author from the text?‎ A. She has strong environmental awareness.‎ B. She is used to traditional paper towels.‎ C. She has a good knowledge of financial investment.‎ D. She prefers to have her purchases packed in small boxes.‎ C In between all the measures to battle the severe air pollution in Delhi, India, there’s one more option—a bar that has “pure air”.‎ Founded by Aryavir Kumar, Oxy Pure, Delhi’s first-ever oxygen bar, offers 15 minutes of 80-90 percent pure oxygen, costing Rs 299 ($4.2). Customers are given a lightweight tube for oxygen intake. The device (装置) is placed near the customer’s nostrils (鼻孔) through which they are advised to breathe in the oxygen.‎ The bar also offers its customers several aromas (气味) to go with oxygen, including lemongrass, cherry and more. According to the aroma people choose, each session promises to ‎ improve sleep patterns and digestion, cure headaches, and even claims to work as a treatment for depression.‎ Bonny Irengbam, a senior sales assistant at the bar, said, “Some people, who try it for the first time, will feel relaxed and fresh. But only people who do this regularly will get real benefits. By regularly, I mean once or twice a month. We don’t encourage back-to-back sessions, as increased levels of oxygen in the body can make a person dizzy.”‎ Dr. Rajesh Chawla, a senior doctor at the Indraprastha Apollo Hospital, said, “Even if you breathe in the so-called pure oxygen for two hours in a day, you will go back to breathing the polluted air for the rest of the 22 hours. The concept is purely money-driven.”‎ Recalling the first few months of the bar, Irengbam admitted that people were skeptical. “Many people criticized, saying we were selling air. Others were simply scared to breathe through the tube.”‎ Irengbam said the bar saw a significant rise in the number of customers two to three days after Diwali, an Indian festival mainly celebrated by fireworks and lights, as the pollution levels were high.‎ ‎8. What do we know about the oxygen intake?‎ A. It surely has a promising future. ‎ B. It will always cause side effects.‎ C. It was not well received at first. ‎ D. It can cure people of depression.‎ ‎9. Which of the following can replace “back-to-back” in Paragraph 4?‎ A. Once-a-month. B. Once-in-a-while. ‎ C. Once-and-for-all. D. One-after-another.‎ ‎10. What is Dr. Rajesh Chawla’s attitude towards the bar?‎ A. Doubtful. B. Positive. ‎ C. Unconcerned. D. Ambiguous.‎ ‎11. What is the purpose of the passage?‎ A. To explain how to breathe in the oxygen. ‎ B. To introduce the first oxygen bar in India.‎ C. To show people’s responses to the device. ‎ D. To advertise for Aryavir Kumar’s business.‎ D A lecture hall should be like a church—a little too dark, much too cold, and uncomfortably silent. You should feel guilty opening your water bottle, because all 200 people in the room can hear it.‎ So when I’m trying to pay attention, the last thing you should be doing is carrying on a conversation about your last weekend party or anything else.‎ During the past school term, I’ve had enough. One of my biggest complaints of large class sizes is the tendency for three to five friends to sit together and loudly whisper each others’ ears off for an hour and 15 minutes straight. My stupid monkey brain can’t help but focus on your conversation about the difference between ash blonde and light blonde colored hair that look exactly the same.‎ To me, it just feels like a waste. You’re actively wasting money, and missing vital information. We (and the government) pay quite a lot for our education, but you are here to ignore someone significantly more experienced than us, in classes we picked, for hours every week.‎ I know major requirements can be boring, but this is still an education. It requires two-way effort. Most of students here have at least one goal in common: success. Not every checkpoint on that path is going to be filled with joy. Sit down, shut up, and force yourself to listen to your professor. Society tells us it will eventually pay off.‎ Or maybe it won’t because you don’t want to.‎ I actually don’t care if you decide to pay little or no attention to the lecture itself, so long as you’re not being disturbing.‎ For those willing to try in 20 years when you finally pay off your debt with your fairly secure white-collar job, you’ll look back and be happy that you went through the lectures.‎ ‎12. Why is a lecture hall compared to a church by the author?‎ A. Both places are open to the public. ‎ B. Both places are supposed to be quiet.‎ C. Both places can seat over 200 people. ‎ D. Both places help rid people of their guilt.‎ ‎13. What can we infer about the author from the passage?‎ A. He likes persuading others. ‎ B. He tends to make complaints.‎ C. He values education as a duty. ‎ D. He cares much about friendship.‎ ‎14. How does the author feel when writing the passage?‎ A. Annoyed. B. Deserted. ‎ C. Thrilled. D. Worried.‎ ‎15. What may be the best title for the text?‎ A. Hard Work Pays Off! B. Focus on the Lectures!‎ C. Wasting Your Time Is a Shame! D. Mind Your In-Class Behavior!‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。‎ Do you have difficulty falling asleep at night? If so, here is a piece of advice for you: listen to some soft music. ‎ ‎ 16 This works for sleepers of all ages, and even for those with sleeping problems. Soft music can help us fall asleep faster, wake up less during the night and feel more rested in the morning. You may not notice the effects overnight, though. 17 ‎ Why can soft music help us sleep better? The reasons aren’t clear yet. It may have something to do with the relaxing effect of a good song. Music can have real physical effects, too. Soft music can lower our heart rate and slow down our breathing. 18 ‎ Scientists say that for most people, music that has 70 beats per minute works best. 19 . Familiar songs work well, too. You may need to experiment to make your own playlists. If you are not sure how many heats a song has in a minute, you can find out by entering its title into songbpm. com. And remember to get the volume right. 20 . Otherwise, you may be woken up by the sudden silence. ‎ It is very important to get enough high-quality sleep. Before you go to bed tonight, play some soft music. Then, just prepare to be rocked off to dreamland!‎ A. This prepares us for sleep.‎ B. Make sure that the final piece is one that slowly fades out.‎ C. It would take as many as three weeks to see any improvements.‎ D. Therefore, folk music is something that anyone can understand.‎ E. Classical, jazz and folk music are usually more effective than other musical styles.‎ F. Scientists have found that soft music can help to improve sleep quality and quantity.‎ G. Music plays a more important role in our life than just being a source of entertainment.‎ 第二部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ It was just after sunrise on a June morning. “Nicolo,” whose real name cannot be 21 to the public because of Italy’s privacy laws, 22 working the whole night at a factory in Turin. As he often did, he stopped by the “after work auction(拍卖)” 23 by the Italian police where things 24 on the trains were sold to the highest bidder. There, among many other things, Nicolo spotted two paintings he thought would look 25 above his dining room table. Nicolo and another bidder 26 until Nicolo finally won the paintings for $32.‎ When Nicolo retired and went to live in Sicily, he 27 the paintings with him. He hung them above the same table he had 28 from Turin. His son, age 15, who had 29 an art appreciation class, thought that there was something 30 about the one with a young girl sitting on a garden chair. It was signed (签名) “Bonnato” or so he thought, but when he 31 it, he only found “Bonnard,” a French 32 he had never heard of. He bought a book and was 33 to find a picture of the artist Pierre Bonnard sitting on the same chair in the same 34 as his father’s painting.‎ ‎“That’s the garden in our picture,” Nicolo’s son told his father. They 35 learned that the painting they 36 was called “The Girl with Two Chairs.” They 37 the other painting and learned that it was 38 Paul Gauguin’s “Still Life of Fruit on a Table with a Small Dog.” The 39 called the Italian Culture Ministry; the official confirmed that the paintings were 40 and worth as much as $50 million.‎ ‎21.

Johnson Space Center能见宇航员训练设备。故选C。‎ ‎【阅读理解B解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲了作者为了减少一次性产品的使用，而建了一个环保厨房，并且改变了自己很多生活习惯，使用更环保的产品。‎ ‎4. 细节理解题。从文中“A year ago, I decided to create a more environmentally friendly kitchen, focusing on reducing the single-use products such as plastic bags and paper towels.”可知，作者创建厨房的主要目的是减少浪费和更多的循环利用。故选B项。‎ ‎5. 词义猜测题。从文中“It takes commitment and a willingness to change long-held habits.”可知，作者建环保厨房，改变一个长期的生活习惯是他自己承诺和心甘情愿的，而并不是让自己的经历变得更有吸引力。所以sugarcoat是“使……有吸引力”的意思。故选A项。‎ ‎6. 细节理解题。从文中“I tried a lot of different alternative products and some plain old common sense. The result, however, has been worth the effort. I’m recycling more and relying ‎ less on single-use products and I’m saving money too.”可知，在这个厨房里，作者试着使用许多替换产品和一些普通旧的东西，最终他重复使用的次数变多了，而且对一次性产品的依赖越来越少，同时也节省了钱。结合选项，在创建她的厨房时，作者选择了可循环利用或可多次使用的厨房用品，故选D项。‎ ‎7. 推理判断题。从文中第一段“A year ago, I decided to create a more environmentally friendly kitchen, focusing on reducing the single-use products such as plastic bags and paper towels.”可知作者为了减少一次性产品的使用，而建了一个环保的厨房，所以从文中我们可知作者是一个环保意识很强的人，故选A项。‎ ‎【阅读理解C解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。介绍了在印度为了应对环境污染开的“氧吧”。‎ ‎8. 细节理解题。倒数第二段第一句“Recalling the first few months of the bar, Irengbam admitted that people were skeptical.”得知，“氧吧”一开始受到人们的质疑，所以一开始并没有特别受到人们的欢迎。故选C项。‎ ‎9. 词义猜测题。A选项的意思“一月一次”，B选项“偶尔”，C选项“一劳永逸”，D选项“连续地”。根据“back-to-back”所在的上文中“But only people who do this regularly will get real benefits. By regularly, I mean once or twice a month。”可知，一月吸氧一次或者两次是有益于健康的，而后文中作者不鼓励“back to back”，因为这样会增加氧气水平从而让人眩晕。由此，可以推断出“back to back”应是“常常，连续不断”的意思。故选D项。‎ ‎10. 推理判断题。根据第五段“Even if you breathe in the so-called pure oxygen for two hours in a day, you will go back to breathing the polluted air for the rest of the 22 hours. The concept is purely money-driven”可知，Dr.Rajesh Chawla认为即使一天呼吸两个小时所谓的“纯氧气”，剩下22个小时都呼吸污染的空气，那这个完全就是受金钱驱使的概念。由此，可得知他对“氧吧”持怀疑的态度。故选A项。‎ ‎11. 写作目的题。根据文章主旨大意可知，文章是介绍为了应对环境污染在印度开的“氧吧”，所以文章就是介绍印度的第一所“氧吧”。故选B项。‎ ‎【阅读理解D解析】‎ 这是一篇议论文。通过描写“我”的听课经历：课堂上很多人窃窃私语，影响“我”听课。进而谈自己对这种行为的看法。“我”认为课堂上就要坐好，不说话，迫使自己听教授的课，社会最终会对我们有回报。因此，课堂上要注意自己的行为。‎ ‎12. 细节理解题。从第一段“uncomfortably silent”“You should feel guilty opening your water ‎ bottle,because all 200 people in the room can hear it.”这两个地方可看出，报告厅和教堂都有很“安静”这个共同点，这样为下文其他同学在课堂上说话并打扰到作者学习做铺垫。故选B项。‎ ‎13. 推理判断题。从第五段“I know major requirements can be boring,but this is still an education.It requires two-way effort”和“Society tells us it will eventually pay off.”可以看出作者认为虽然学习可能是枯燥的，但是依旧是教育。并且，需要老师和学生双方面努力。最终，社会会给你回报，所以作者认为学习是他的责任。故选C项。‎ ‎14. 推理判断题。根据文章中倒数第二段：I actually don’t care if you decide to pay little or no attention to the lecture itself, so long as you’re not being disturbing，可以得出，“我”对周围同学态度是：只要不打扰就行。可以推断“我”对周围打扰其他人的同学的行为是愤怒的，生气的。故选A项。‎ ‎15. 主旨大意题。纵观全文可以看出，“我”写这篇文章是结合自己的听课经历：课堂上很多人窃窃私语，影响“我”听课。所以我谈自己对这种行为的观点：I know major requirements can be boring, but this is still an education.及Sit down, shut up, and force yourself to listen to your professor. Society tells us it will eventually pay off.课堂上就要坐好，不说话，迫使自己听教授的课。社会最终会对我们有回报。因此，课堂上要注意自己的行为。因此选D项。‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章作者告诉我们轻音乐有助于我们提高睡眠质量，增加睡眠时间。‎ ‎16. 划线后提到“这个方法对所有年龄段的睡眠者都有效，甚至对那些有睡眠问题的人也有效”。同时划线后在第二句话也提到了“轻音乐可以帮助我们更快地入睡，在晚上少醒来，在早上感觉休息得更好”。由此可知，F项“科学家发现，轻音乐可以帮助改善睡眠质量和睡眠时间”统领下文，且划线后的this指代F项的“轻音乐改善睡眠质量和睡眠时间”这个发现。因此F项切题。故选F项。‎ ‎17. 根据前句提到“不过，你可能不会在一夜之间注意到这些效果”可知，C项“可能需要长达三周的时间才能看到任何改善”是对前句进行补充说明。因此C项切题。故选C项。‎ ‎18. 根据前句提到“轻音乐可以降低我们的心率和呼吸速度”可知，A项“为我们睡觉做好准备”和前句构成因果关系，且A项中的this指代前句提及的“降低我们的心率和呼吸速度”。因此A项切题。故选A项。‎ ‎19. 根据前句提到“科学家说，对大多数人来说，每分钟70拍的音乐效果最好”可知，E选项“古典、爵士和民俗音乐通常比其他音乐风格更有效”是对前句进行补充说明。因此E 项切题。故选E项。‎ ‎20. 根据划线后句提到“否则，你可能会被突然的寂静吵醒”可知，B项“确保最后一曲是慢慢结束的”前后构成条件关系。即要确保最后一曲是慢慢结束，不然会被突然的安静吵醒。因此B项切题。故选B项。‎ 第二部分完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎21-25 CADBA 26-30 ADDCB 31-35 CABDC 36-40 ADBCB ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个名叫Nicolo的人在拍卖会上以低价购得两幅画。后来他学艺术欣赏的儿子经过研究发现这两副画可能来自著名画家，他们打电话给意大利文化部，那儿的官员证实这两幅画都是画家的真迹，价值至少5000万美元。‎ ‎21.考查动词词义辨析。句意：Nicolo完成了一整夜在Turin一家工厂的工作，他的真实名字因意大利的隐私法不能暴露给公众。A. attached参加；B. admit承认；C. exposed暴露；D. submitted上交。根据下文的because of Italy's privacy可知此处用be exposed to“暴露”符合语境，故选C项。‎ ‎22. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：Nicolo完成了一整夜在Turin一家工厂工作，他的真实名字因为意大利的隐私法不能暴露给警方。A. finished完成；B. delayed推迟；C. considered考虑；D. tried尝试。根据上文的It was just after sunrise on a June morning可推测Nicolo刚在工厂里上完了夜班，即完成了一整夜的工作，故选A项。‎ ‎23. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：像往常一样，他顺便去了“下班后拍卖”，这个拍卖会是由意大利警方进行的，在火车上发现的东西卖给出价最高的竞标人。A. attended参加；B. reserved保护；C. cancelled取消；D. run进行。结合常识可知，拍卖会上需要有警察来维持秩序，进行拍卖，故选D项。‎ ‎24. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：像往常一样，他顺便去了“下班后拍卖”，这个拍卖会是由意大利警察管理的，在火车上发现的东西卖给出价最高的竞标人。A. shown展示；B. found发现；C. kept保存；D. hidden隐藏。根据句意可知，此处是指拍卖的东西都是从火车上发现的，故选B项。‎ ‎25. 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在那里，很多其它东西中，Nicolo看到了两幅画，他觉得它们看起来挂在自己的餐桌上方会很漂亮。A. nice漂亮的；B. familiar熟悉的；C. useful有用的； D. real真的。根据下文的Nicolo and another bidder26 until Nicolo finally won the paintings for 32$可推测Nicolo 认为这两幅画挂在自己的餐桌前会很漂亮，所以才会出高价买，故选A项。‎ ‎26. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：Nicolo和另外一个竞标人竞争，直到Nicolo最终以32美元价格赢得了这两幅画。A. battled竞争；B. debated辩论；C. discussed 讨论；D. bargained讨价还价。根据上文的were sold to the highest bidder可知此处用“竞争”符合语境，故选A项。‎ ‎27. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：当Nicolo退休去Sicily居住时，他带上了这两幅画。A. held拿着；B. left离开，留下；C. recorded记录；D. brought带来。根据下文的he hung them above the same table可知，Nicolo搬家时带上了这两幅画，故选D项。‎ ‎28. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他把它们挂在同一张桌子的上面，这张桌子是他从Turin搬来的。A. chosen选择；B. received收到；C. ordered 命令；D. moved搬。根据上文的the same table可知，Nicolo搬家时也把桌子搬来了，故选D项。‎ ‎29. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他15岁的儿子在上一门艺术欣赏课，他认为那幅有一个年轻女孩坐在花园椅子上的画是不寻常的。A. missed错过；B. failed失败；C. taken拿；D. led导致。根据句意可知，此处考查固定短语take classes“上课”，故选C项。‎ ‎30. 考查形容词词义辨析，句意：他15岁的儿子在上一门艺术欣赏课，他认为那副有一个年轻女孩坐在花园椅子上的画是不寻常的。A. common普通的；B. unusual不寻常的；C. unappealing不吸引人的；D. natural自然的。根据下文的It was signed “Bonnato” or so he thought可知，儿子认为这幅画可能是一个著名画家的画，故觉得它有些不同寻常，故选B项。‎ ‎31. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：画上有一个他认为是“Bonnato”的签名，但当他仔细研究它时，他只发现了“Bonnard”，一个他从未听说过的法国画家。A. appreciated欣赏；B. touched触摸；C. researched研究；D. witnessed目睹。根据下文的he only found ''Bonnard''可推测儿子仔细研究了画，故选C项。‎ ‎32. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：画上署名Bonnato或者他认为是这样，但当他仔细研究它时，他只发现了Bonnard，一个他从未听说过的法国画家。A. painter画家；B. designer设计师；C. author 作家；D. actor演员。根据下文的a picture of the artist Pierre Bonnard可知，此处用画家符合语境，故选A项。‎ ‎33. 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：他买了一本书，非常吃惊的发现里面有一幅艺术家Pierre Bonnard的画，他坐在和父亲画里面一样的花园里，一样的椅子上。A. expected意料的；B. surprised惊讶的；C. anxious焦虑的；D. ready准备好的。根据下文的sitting on the same chair in the same34as his father's painting可知此处用“吃惊的”符合语境，故选B项。‎ ‎34. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：他买了一本书，非常吃惊的发现里面有一幅艺术家Pierre Bonnard的画，他坐在和父亲画里面一样的花园里，一样的椅子上。A. room房间；B. kitchen餐厅； C. hall 大厅；D. garden花园。根据上文的with a young girl sitting on a garden chair可知此处用“花园”符合语境，garden是原词复现，故选D项。‎ ‎35. 考查副词词义辨析。句意：他们最终知道他们拥有的这幅画叫做“有两把椅子的女孩”。A. apparently明显地；B. confidently自信地；C. eventually 最后；D. temporarily暂时地。根据上文的he bought a book and was 53 to find a picture of the artist Pierre Bonnard sitting on the same chair in the same as his father's painting可知，此处是指经过一系列的对比和研究，他们终于从一本书上得知了其中一副画的名字，故选C项。‎ ‎36. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他们最终知道他们拥有的这幅画叫做“有两把椅子的女孩”。A. owned拥有；B. borrowed借；C. sold卖；D. stole偷。根据上文的Nicolo finally won the paintings for $32可知，这幅画的所有权是Nicolo的，即他们拥有它，故选A项。‎ ‎37. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他们研究了另一幅画，发现它事实上是Paul Gauguin的“Still Life of Fruit on a Table with a Small Dog”。A. collected收集；B. cleaned打扫；C. framed制定；D. studied研究。根据上文的but when he 31 it可知此处用“研究”符合语境，research和study是同义词复现，故选D项。‎ ‎38. 考查副词词义辨析。句意：他们研究了另一幅画，发现它事实上是Paul Gauguin的“Still Life of Fruit on a Table with a Small Dog”。A. suitably适合地；B. actually事实上；C. rightly正确地；D. specifically具体地。根据句意可知，此处是指他们研究了另外一副画，事实证明也是一副著名画家的画，故选B项。‎ ‎39. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：这家人给意大利文化部打电话，官员肯定这些画是原版，价值高达5000万美元。A. girl女孩；B. artist艺术家；C. family家庭；D. police警察。根据上下文可知，此处是指Nicolo一家为了鉴别画的真伪给意大利文化部打电话，故选C项。‎ ‎40. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：这家人给意大利文化部打电话，官员肯定这些画是原版，价值高达5000万美元。A. copies复制品；B. originals原版；C. models 模型；D. presents礼物。根据下文的as much as $50 million可推测，这两幅画都是画家的原版，故选B项。‎ 第三部分单句填空（共10小题；每小题2分, 满分20分）‎ ‎41.
