2、语从句的省略。句意：当我们比较不同的文化时，我们往往只关注差异，而没有注意到它们的相似之处。从句的完整形式为：when we are comparing different cultures，主从句的主语一致，且从句含有be动词时，可以省略从句中主语及be动词。故填comparing。2.

Many Chinese brands, _（develop） their reputations over centuries, a

6、re facing new challenges from the modern market. （用单词适当形式填空）【答案】having developed【解析】【详解】考查现在分词完成式。句意：许多中国品牌，享誉数百年，现在正面临着来自现代市场的新挑战。本句已有谓语 are facing且无连词，主语Many Chinese brands和动词develop是主谓关系，所以用现在分词表主动作状语，表示伴随状况；develop这个动作发生在谓语动词face动作之前，应该使用现在分词的完成式（having done）。故填having developed。7.

9、的适当方式之一。根据所给句子分析可知，此处需要使用非谓语动词，作appreciate的宾语，与主语you是主动关系，因此需要使用动名词形式构成appreciate doing sth.结构，故填expressing。10. _ (remain) an important problem to be dealt with this year, the efficient use of energy and resources has become a national concern. (所给词的适当形式填空)【答案】Remaining【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：有效利用能源资源仍然是

40、 dirty, smelly, hungry and somewhere beneath all that, suntanned. It was the end of an Inter-Rail (欧洲旅游火车通票) holiday. My body couldnt take any more punishment. My mind couldnt deal with any more foreign timetables, currencies or languages.“Never again,” I said, as I stepped onto home ground. I said

41、exactly the same thing the following year. And the next. All I had to do was buy one train ticket and, because I was under twenty-five years old, I could spend a whole month going anywhere I wanted in Europe. Ordinary beds are never the same once youve learnt to sleep in the passage of a train, the

42、rhythm rocking you into a deep sleep.Carrying all your possessions on your back in a rucksack (背包) makes you have a very basic approach to travel, and encourages incredible wastefulness that can lead to burning socks that have become too anti-social, and getting rid of books when finished. On the ot

43、her hand, this way of looking at life is entirely in the spirit of Inter-Rail, for common sense and reasoning can be thrown out of the window along with the paperback book and the socks. All it takes to achieve this carefree attitude is one of those tickets in your hand.Any system that enables young

44、 people to travel through countries at a rate of more than one a day must be pretty social. On that first trip, my friends and I were at first unaware of the possibilities of this type of train ticket, thinking it was just an inexpensive way of getting to and from our chosen camp-site in southern Fr

45、ance. But the idea of non-stop travel proved too attractive, for there was always just one more country over the border, always that little bit further to go. And what did the extra miles cost us? Nothing.We were not completely uninterested in culture. But this was a first holiday without parents, a

46、s it was for most other Inter-Railers, and in organizing our own timetable we left out everything except the most available sights. This was the chance to escape the guided tour, an opportunity to do something different. I took great pride in the fact that, in many places, all I could be bothered to

47、 see was the view from the station. We were just there to get by, and to have good time doing so. In this we were no different from most of the other Inter-Railers with whom we shared passage floors, food and water, money and music.The excitement of travel comes from the sudden reality of somewhere

48、that was previously just a name. It is as if the city in which you arrive never actually existed until the train pulls in at the station and you are able to see it with your own tired eyes for the first time.31.

56、 arrive never actually existed until the train pulls in at the station and you are able to see it with your own tired eyes for the first time. (就好像你到达的城市从未真正存在过，直到火车进站，你才能够第一次用疲惫的眼睛看到it)”可知，该句关键词是城市，可得出it指代上文的“城市（The city）”。故选B项。(B)The number of devices you can talk to is multiplyingfirst it was you

57、r phone, then your car, and now you can boss around your appliances. Children are likely to grow up thinking everything is sentient, or at least interactive: One app developer told The Washington Post that after interacting with Amazons Alexa, his kid started talking to coasters. But even without ch

In one experiment, people who reported feeling isolated were more likely than others to give free will and consciousness to various devices. In turn, f

When college students were reminded of a time theyd been excluded socially, they made up by lying about their number of friends on social networksunless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it had human qual

60、ities. The phone apparently stood in for real friends.When we personify products, they become harder to cast off. After being asked to evaluate their cars personality, people were less likely to say they intended to replace it soon. And anthropomorphizing objects is associated with a tendency to acc

61、umulate.So how do people assign characteristics to an object? In part, we rely on looks. On humans, wide faces are associated with dominance. Similarly, people rated cars, clocks, and watches with wide faces as more dominant-looking than narrow-faced ones, and preferred themespecially in competitive

62、 situations. An analysis of car sales in Germany found that cars with grilles(格栅) that were upturned like smiles and headlights that were slanted（倾斜的）like narrowed eyes sold best. The purchasers saw these features as increasing a cars friendliness and aggressiveness, respectively. Its little wonder

63、so many companies use mascots（吉祥物）to bring brands to life. An analysis of 1,151 brand characters found symbols that were human or humanlike to be common.Personifying products and brands can backfire, however. When a coffee maker was anthropomorphized in an ad (“I am Aroma” versus just “Aroma”)，consu

64、mers felt betrayed by increases in its price. Now that speech-enabled coffee makers are on the market, maybe the machines can sweet-talk their way back into consumers, hearts.35. The word “anthropomorphize”（in paragraph 1) most probably means_.A. think highly of somethingB. find a better way to rate

65、 somethingC. see something as humansD. use something as often as possible36. For the college students, the interaction with the phone served as a reminder that_ .A. they were not lonelyB. the phone had human qualitiesC. they needed real friendsD. the phone was not always necessary37.

68、tion of a product may not always work.【答案】35. C 36. A 37. D 38. D【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了，我们把日常生活中很多东西拟人化是因为孤独，商家通过把产品拟人化来提高销售，但是拟人化并不总是凑效。【35题详解】词意猜测题。根据文章第一段最后和第二段开头But even without chatty gadgets, research suggests that under certain circumstances, people anthropomorphize everyday products.We pers

69、onify things because were lonely.（但，研究表明即使没有可以聊天的小玩意儿，人们也会把日常用品拟人化。我们把东西拟人化是因为我们很孤独）可知，前句中的anthropomorphize和下句中的personify是同义词，personify意为“赋予人性”，则anthropomorphize也是此意。故选C项。【36题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段的When college students were reminded of a time theyd been excluded socially, they made up by lying about thei

70、r number of friends on social networksunless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it had human qualities. The phone apparently stood in for real friends.（当大学生被告知在某个时间他们是被社会排斥时，他们会通过在社交媒体上谎报朋友的数量来弥补，除非一开始给他们的任务是让他们和手机互动，就好像手机有人性。很明显手机是他们真正的朋友）可知，有了手机大学生们可以欣然

71、接受被社会排斥，这是因为他们把手机当成了朋友，有了朋友就不再感到孤单。A. they were not lonely（他们不是孤独的）符合以上说法。故选A项。【37题详解】推理判断题。根据本段的中心句So how do people assign characteristics to an object? In part, we rely on looks.（那么人们如何给一个物体赋予特征呢？在某种程度上，我们依赖于外表）可知，本段陈述的例子都是为中心句服务的。D. illustrate that people will judge something according to its app

72、earance（阐明人们会通过外表来判断某些东西）符合以上说法。故选D项。38题详解】推理判断题。根据本段第一句Personifying products and brands can backfire, however.（然而，将产品和品牌拟人化也可能适得其反）可知，把产品拟人化不是总能行得通的。D. The personification of a product may not always work.（一个产品的拟人化不一定总有效）符合题意。故选D项。Section CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank

74、om the edge, these mixed feelings give way to an intense rush, then deep focus. She must position her body just so for her wingsuit (滑翔服) to fill with air. Then, she must open her parachute (降落伞) at precisely the right moment and nail her landing, often within the span of 60 seconds._39_ In the face

75、 of such fatal consequences, why are some people still drawn to risky attempts? The answer may lie in a complex mix of genetic, environmental and psychological factors.Even before we are born, our appetite for risk may be mapped out in our DNA. Cynthia Thomsons study found that individuals who repor

Scientists believe that people with this genetic variant produce more dopamine receptors. “So they need to seek out intense situations to bring up their dopamine levels,” says Thomson._40_ Several studies have shown that risk-t

77、aking behavior is linked to the earliest bonds (关系) we form with our primary caretakers. Those with less secure attachments are more likely to engage in dangerous activities.There is the common idea that extreme sports enthusiasts are chasing thrills. But Tim Woodman, a professor at the Bangor Unive
