It is also one of the most visited places in the world. Vehicles cross the bridge an average of 41 million times each year. More than 1800 hundred million vehicles have used the bridge since it opened more than 70 years ago.‎ ‎ The bridge was painted “International Orange” because that color went well with the natural surroundings. The color also is easier to see in the heavy fog that often covers the area. But the Golden Gate Bridge was not named for its orange color. It was named for the body of water that ‎ it crosses，the Golden Gate Strait.‎ ‎ The Golden Gate Strait is the entrance to the San Francisco Bay from the Pacific Ocean. The Golden Gate Bridge links the city of San Francisco with Marin County，California. Planning for the bridge began in the 1920s when the area around San Francisco was growing. People living in the area needed another way to get to the city besides small ferries(渡船)．‎ ‎ Joseph Strauss was the chief engineer for the project. Work began in 1934.Mr.Strauss demanded the strongest safety protections in the history of bridge building. These included the first use of “hard hats” to protect the workers' heads and special glasses to protect their eyes.‎ ‎ A special safety net was suspended(挂)under the bridge. This net saved the lives of 19 men during the construction. However，11 other workers were killed when they fell from the bridge through the net. Still，this was a new safety record for the time.‎ ‎ The Golden Gate Bridge opened in 1937.It extends 1280 meters across the water. The total length is 2737 meters. It was the largest suspension bridge(吊桥)in the world until 1964.That is when the Verrazano Narrows Bridge opened in New York City. Today，the Golden Gate Bridge is the ninth longest suspension bridge in the world. 4.The Golden Gate Bridge was named after ________．    A．the local climate B．the color of a paint    C．the strait it crosses D．its natural surroundings 5.The purpose of suspending a special safety net is to ________．    A．protect the environment B．make construction easier    C．prevent workers from falling D．save building materials from falling 6.What do we know about Joseph Strauss?    A．He attached importance to the workers' safety.    B．His safety measures were not of practical value.    C．He built the first suspension bridge in the world.    D．He demanded strong measures to ensure the safety of the bridge. 7.The passage is written to ________．    A．invite readers to San Francisco ‎ B．introduce the Golden Gate Bridge    C．describe how the Golden Gate Bridge was built ‎ ‎   D．tell the story of an engineer called Joseph Strauss ‎【答案】‎ ‎4.C ‎5.C ‎6.A ‎7.B ‎【解析】‎ 试题分析：这篇短文中主要讲述了金门大桥名称的由来。‎ ‎4.C细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句It was named for the body of water that it crosses,the Golden Gate Strait.因为这座桥横跨金门海峡的主干水域。故选C。 ‎ ‎【学法指导】‎ 推理题的解题方法 1. 抓住特定信息进行逆向或正向推理。做此类试题要善于抓住某一段话中的关键信息，即某些关键词或短语去分析、推理、判断，利用逆向思维或正面推理，从而推断出这句话所隐含的深层含义。‎ ‎2.整合全文（段）信息进行推断。做推理题时，有时需要在弄懂全文意思的基础上，整合与题目相关的有用信息，综合起来去推理判断，确定最佳结论。6.A推理判断题。根据第四段和第五段第一、二句Mr. Strauss demanded the strongest safety protections in the history of bridge building.斯特劳斯先生要求在建造的过程中使用最坚固的安全防护材料，These ‎ protections included the first use of the hard hat and special glasses to protect the workers' eyes.其中包括首次使用安全帽和可以保护工人眼睛的特殊眼镜。A special safety net was suspended under the bridge.桥下专门悬挂着一张安全网，This net saved the lives of 19 men during the construction.它在建造的过程中救了19名工人的性命。他重视工人的安全.。故选A。‎ 考点：考查说明文阅读 ‎ C Group exercise is one of the most effective ways to improve physical fitness and sustain(保持) a healthy lifestyle. Group exercise is challenging, yet fun and empowering! Of course everyone knows that exercise is good for the body. However, studies have shown that when exercise is performed in groups, it's not only great for improving physical health but for psychological health. It's an opportunity to be social, release endorphins（内啡肽）, and improve your strength. Additionally, group exercise creates a community feel and the shared common goal motivates participants to work hard. The instrumental support of taking on a fitness journey with others proves more effective than going to the gym alone. ‎ ‎ Another beneficial aspect of group exercise is the informational support participants receive from the instructor. Many people fear the gym because they feel lost and don't want to embarrass themselves. If you feel you can relate, then group training is an even better option for you. It's a great opportunity to learn more about fitness through the clear instruction and supervision (监管) of a fitness instructor. If you're tired of wandering around the gym wasting time and becoming bored, you can attend an upbeat group fitness class that'll keep your workout on track. Don't let fitness frighten you! ‎ ‎ If you're serious about wanting to live a healthy lifestyle, it's extremely important to surround yourself with people who'll provide you with the proper emotional support. I wouldn't scold anyone for deciding to party on weekends and in turn I wouldn't expect anyone to give offence to me for focusing on my health. Surround yourself with people who uplift, encourage and understand you! Make fitness even more fun by trying something new or any group fitness class, with a friend. Plan to go for a jog together. Then try a fun healthy restaurant or fresh juice bar! Fitness can be both fun and social!‎ ‎ Surrounding yourself with people who'll provide you with respect support can be very ‎ beneficial while working towards reaching health and fitness goals. First, decide to do it for yourself and work towards staying positive. Then make sure the people you surround yourself with are supportive. Don't let negativity ruin your motivation.‎ ‎8. The first paragraph focuses on _______. A. the greatest challenge of group exercise B. the most effective way to improve physical fitness C. the contribution of group exercise to psychological health D. the shared common goal in performing exercise in groups 9. The underlined word "upbeat" in the second paragraph probably means " __________.‎ A. cheerful  B. average  C. serious  D. temporal ‎10. When it comes to emotional support, the author thinks it necessary___________ .‎ A. to sustain a colorful lifestyle B. to party on weekends with positive people C. to try a fun healthy restaurant regularly D. to surround yourself with supportive people ‎11. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Seeking Support  B. Supporting Health C. Improving Your Strength  D. Building Up Fitness ‎【答案】‎ ‎8.C ‎9.A ‎10.D ‎11.B ‎10.D细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句Surrounding yourself with people who'll provide you with respect support can be very beneficial while working towards reaching health and fitness goals.在以健康为目标锻炼的时候和那些你能够给你尊敬和支持的人们在一起是很有益处的，故选D ‎11.B考查主旨大意题。结合全文,尤其是文章的最后一段可知,作者建议我们和那些能给我们提供支持与帮助的乐观人群在一起进行集体运动,这有利于我们的身心健康,所以用Supporting Health作为标题最适合。故选B。‎ ‎【名师点拨】‎ 利用上下文提供的情景和线索，进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义，是阅读过程中的一大关键，这也是近年来高考考查的热点。最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义。1.抓住所需推断词汇前后的“mean”或系动词或破折号等直接定义该词的部分。2.抓住文章主旨与该段所表达的中心。特别对于议论文要牢记论点与论据的相互支撑关系。9.A考查词义猜测。根据语境,尤其是句中的"If you’re tired of"可知upbeat所表达的含义应该与cheerful意思相近。故选A。‎ 考点：考查议论文阅读 ‎ D Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there's a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. ‎ ‎ In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You've got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”‎ ‎ The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career ‎ in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer (自由撰稿者), I had not prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn't even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer. After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering. What if ? I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the Shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.‎ ‎12. The passage is meant to________.‎ A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience B. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer C. show young people it's unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fame D. encourage young people to pursue a writing career ‎13. What can be concluded from the passage?‎ A. Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.‎ B. A writer's success depends on luck rather than on effort.‎ C. Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.‎ D. The chances for a writer to become successful are small.‎ ‎14.“people who die wondering. What if?” ( Line 5, Para. 3) refers to “those ______”.‎ A. who think too much of the dark side of life B. who regret giving up their career halfway C. who think a lot without making a decision D. who are full of imagination even upon death ‎15. “Shadowland” in the last sentence refers to _______.‎ A. the wonderland one often dreams about B. the bright future that one is looking forward to C. the state of uncertainty before one's final goal is reached D. a world that exists only in one's imagination ‎【答案】‎ ‎12.A ‎13.D ‎14.B ‎15.C ‎14.B推理题。根据本句I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering. What if? I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure.其中的第二句我会继续坚持梦想，尽管意味着生活艰难。说明他不愿意放弃自己的理想。故B正确。‎ ‎15.C词义猜测题。根据上I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. 我将继续坚持梦想，甚至它意味着生活中的不确定的和令人恐惧的失败。再根据文章最后一句的后半句anyone with a dream must learn to live there. 任何有梦想的人必须学会在那里生活。可知本句前半句的意思是：这是希望的阴影之地。划线词的意思是“达到最终目标前的不确定状态”，故选C。‎ ‎【名师点睛】本文主要讲述的就是从事写作行业的艰难，告诉我们要想以写作为生，要耐得住寂寞，能够坚持自己的理想等。从题目设置的角度看，本题侧重对学生把握文章中心段落和各段落的中心句的能力的考查，所以遇到这类题后，要注意把握好文章结构，了解文章中心意思，找到各段落中心句。不要让文中的一些生词影响了注意力。‎ 考点：考查议论文阅读 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。‎ If you have ever been in a school play or even made believe you were a doctor, detective, or a space traveler, you know the enjoyment that acting brings. Almost all of us have the wish to play the part of someone or something else. 16 ‎ In the ancient world, acting was often associated with religious ceremonies and other special occasions. As far back as 2200 B.C, trained Chinese actors performed ceremonial dances in costume and makeup at harvest festivals. 17 To the dance was gradually added pantomime—the imitation of movements and gestures as well as the wearing of masks, the singing of chants, and finally the use of dialogue.‎ While acting was coming into its own in the ancient Chinese classical theatre, it was doing the same in the western world, in Greece. From about 500 B.C. on, acting became a highly specialized art in Greece. Greek actors, however, still wore masks, and their motions were largely fixed by custom. 18 ‎ Modern acting, on the contrary, gives the individual actor great opportunity to develop his or her personal talents for serious, comic, or musical drama. The names, faces, and styles of famous movie actors are known worldwide. 19 A special form of acting takes place in radio drama, which was highly popular before television. In radio drama the actors face an unique challenge. They are unseen by their audience. So they must rely on voice alone to make their characters real to the listeners.‎ ‎ 20 Only forty percent of Broadway actors are employed, most of them for only part of the year. Those who become stars need not only talent, but determination. They must not be easily discouraged. Otherwise, they might give up before the opportunity for stardom presents itself.‎ A. The origins of acting are in the act of remembering.‎ B. Drama in Greece began with festivals honoring Dionysus.‎ C. It is believed that this was the first step in the development of acting.‎ D. Historical records indicate that this desire is as old as civilization itself. ‎ E. Acting is not, as many people think, a quick, easy road to fame and riches.‎ F. Broadway and television provide other stages on which actors can display their talent.‎ G. Consequently, they had little opportunity to demonstrate their individual personalities.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎16.D ‎17.C ‎18.G ‎19.F ‎20.E ‎19.F 此段提到现代的表演形式，选项中只有F选项与此段内容有关。另外，试卷中的an unique challenge是错误的，应该是a unique challenge，命题者要仔细啊……故选F。‎ ‎20.E 此段提到表演职业的困难，选项中只有E选项Acting is not, as many people think, a quick, easy road to fame and riches. 正如许多人认为，演戏并不像一个快速、轻松的成名和致富之路。与此段内容有关。故选E。‎ ‎【名师点睛】 七选五阅读题，有部分小题出现在每一段的开始位置，若问题在段首 1.通常是段落主题句。认真阅读该段落，根据段落一致性原则，查找相关词或者同义词，从而推测出主题句，找到答案。 2.与后文是并列、转折、因果关系等。着重阅读后文第一两句，锁定线索信号词，然后在选项中查找 相关特征词。一般来说正确答案与它后面的一句话的在意思上是衔接的，所以通常情况下，这两句话中会 有某种的衔接手段。3.段落间的过渡句。这时要前瞻后望找到启示，即阅读上一段结尾部分，通常正确答案与上一段结尾有机地衔接起来，并结合下一段内容，看所选的答案是否将两段内容连贯起来。20.E 此段提到表演职业的困难，选项中只有E选项Acting is not, as many people think, a quick, easy road to fame and riches. 正如许多人认为，演戏并不像一个快速、轻松的成名和致富之路。与此段内容有关。故选E。‎ 考点：考查信息匹配 第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ During the war, my husband was stationed at an army camp in a desert in California. I went to live there in order to be 21 him. I hated the place. I had never 22 been so unhappy. My husband was ordered out on a long-term duty, and I was left in a tiny shack(棚屋) alone.
