Ⅰ.阅读理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Petra is the treasure of the world, hidden among mountains.Its most beautiful scenery makes it the greatest ancient site still standing nowadays.Common sense says, “Perhaps there is nothing on the planet that resembles it.” Without doubt, there is nothing in the world that resembles it.The rock-carved rose-red city of Petra is full of mysterious_charm；it had been “designed to strike wonder into all who enter it”．

Petra is the most well-known and beautiful site in Jordan that is about 262 km south of Amman, and 133 km north of Aqaba.The Dead Sea is 80 km north of it.It was the legacy from the Nabataeans, who settled in the southwest of Jordan a lot more than 2,000 years back.Because of its excellent culture, buildings and many water channels, Petra has become a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World that attract visitors from all over the world.

To get there, you must pass through a kilometre long, cool, dark and narrow gorge(峡谷) whose two high sides keep the sunlight out.Suddenly the gorge opens right into a natural square covered with Petra's most well-known monuments, which glow in the bright sun.The old town shows the visitors its beautiful look.It leads people to think about the creativity of the Nabataeans who made Petra as their capital.

Petra flourished for more than 400 years at about the time of Rome and Christ, until it was occupied by the Roman legions of the Emperor Trajan in 106 AD.

Petra has 800 monuments, including buildings, tombs, baths, halls, temples and streets, which were mostly carved in the pretty sandstone.

Petra's sights are at their best in early morning and late afternoon.Once the sun warms the colourful stones, you will see the greatness of Petra. It was seen first when discovered in 1812 after being lost through the 16th century for nearly 300 years!

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Culture means any human behavior that is learned in human society. All of the meaningful parts of a culture are passed on to different generations through tradition or social learning.__1__ Culture exists in agricultural as well as industrialized societies.

Culture is necessary for the survival and existence of human beings as human beings. Practically everything humans know, think, value, feel, and do is learned through taking part in a sociocultural system.__2__Here is one of the cases of children growing up apart from human society. In the province of Midnapore in India, the director of a children's home was told by local villagers that there were “ghosts” in the forest. Upon looking into the case, the director found that two children, one about eight years old and the other about six years old, appeared to have been living with a group of wolves in the forest.__3__In his diary, the director described his first view of Kamala (as the older child was named) and Amala (the name given to the younger child)：

B．must be very convenient D．may not be very easy

解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的首句可判断出到达佩特拉的路不好走。故选D。

Kamala was a terrible-looking being, the head, a big ball of something covering the shoulders.__4__Their eyes were bright and sharp, unlike human eyes. They were very fond of raw meat and raw milk. Gradually, as they got stronger, they began going on all fours, and afterwards began to run on all fours, just like squirrels.

Children learn human language in the same way they learn other kinds of human behavior—by taking part in a cultural community.__5__

A．From this viewpoint, all human groups have a culture. B．These children were the ghosts described by the local people. C．This statement is well supported by some well-written cases. D．Human beings can only develop human abilities by the local people. E．Culture refers only to the high art and classical music of a particular society.

F．Close at its heels there came another terrible creature exactly like the first, but smaller in size.

G．They learn a certain human languages as well as certain kinds of human behavior through their membership in a certain cultural community.

这是一篇说明文。本文讲述的是人类文化的传承方面的具体内容。

1．A 解析：根据上一句“All of the meaningful parts of a culture are passed on to different generations through tradition or social learning.”可知文化的所有有意义的部分都会传给下一代，意味着所有的人类群体都有自己的文化。故A正确。

2．C 解析：根据下一句“Here is one of the cases of children growing up apart from human society.”可知有很多的例子来证明这一点，下面列举了其中之一。故C项内容正确。

3．B 解析：根据上文“Upon looking into the case, the director found that two children, one about eight years old and the other about six years old, appeared to have been living with a group of wolves in the forest.”可知两个孩子和狼群生活在一起，当地人把这些孩子认为是鬼魂一样的。故B正确。

4．F 解析：根据上一句“Kamala was a terrible-looking being, the head, a big ball of something covering the shoulders.”可知这里是对两个狼孩的外貌的描述，故F项符合上下文。

5．G 解析：根据上句“Children learn human language in the same way they learn other kinds of human behavior—by taking part in a cultural community.”可知不同的环境对他们有不同的影响，故G正确。

Ⅲ.语法填空

阅读下面短文在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Attracted by the climate and lifestyle, more and more people from different parts of the world have immigrated to California, Asians and Africans __9__ (include).

本文是一篇说明文，加州是美国的第三大州，本文对加州的基本情况做了简单的介绍。 1．largest

解析：考查形容词的最高级。句意：加州是美国的第三大州。根据语境可知，此处应用形容词的最高级形式。所以本句要填largest。

2．to_arrive

解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：第一批来到加州的定居者穿过北极的白令海峡来到美国。由空前的The first settlers可知此处应用不定式作后置定语，所以句中要填to arrive。

3．was_ruled

解析：考查时态和语态。句意：在18世纪，加州被西班牙人所统治。根据时间状语可知描述的是发生在过去的事情，且表示被动。所以要填was ruled。

4．independence

解析：考查名词。句意：墨西哥人在1821年脱离西班牙，获得独立。由空前的gained可知应用名词作宾语，所以要填independent的名词形式independence。

5．which

解析：考查定语从句。句意：在1848年，在加州发现了黄金，这吸引了全世界的人到这儿来实现他们变得富有的梦想。根据语境并分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，且指代前面整个主句的内容，所以要填关系代词which。

6．or

解析：考查连词。句意：一些人死了或者回家了，但大部分人都留在加州，在新的城镇或农场为自己谋生。根据句意可知上下文是选择关系，所以要填连词or。
