20、 one of the most important places on the planet.That is the message ofCuba!”以及第二段中的“The biodiversity of Cuba is part of Cuban identity”可知,Cuba!是在纽约的美国自然历史博物馆举办的一次展览,主要展示了古巴丰富的生物多样性。2.C词义猜测题。由划线词后的“6,500 species of plants,161 kinds of reptiles,65 types of amphibians,42 species of mammals,and 367 bird

21、 species”可知,古巴拥有6500种植物、161种爬行动物、65种两栖动物、42种哺乳动物和367种鸟类,这也照应了上文中提到的古巴丰富的生物多样性。3.D细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“But that also creates great challenges for conservation”可知,保护古巴的野生动植物是一大挑战。4.D标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文主要讲述了在纽约的美国自然历史博物馆举办的展览Cuba!展示了古巴丰富的生物多样性。D项作标题符合文章主旨。二、【篇章导读】本文是议论文。文章主要讨论了作为一个孩子的利与弊。1.B上一句中的“childhood is th

22、e best time of your life”和该空后的“being a child has both advantages and disadvantages”之间形成转折关系,故填However。2.D该空后的“you dont have to .or cleaning”是对上一句责任少的“举例(For example)”。3.A根据上文中的childhood和being a child可知,孩子不用去“工作(work)”。4.C上文列举的很多不用孩子承担的责任也就“意味着(means)”孩子可以有足够的“时间(time)”去做他们想做的事情。5.A见上题解析。6.B根据上文中的“do

23、 whatever you want”可知,这里指除了看电视、玩电脑之外的其他“兴趣爱好(hobbies)”。7.C根据该空前的“public transport,cinema,and sports centres”和该空后的“much less for children”可知,公共交通工具、电影院和体育运动中心有儿童票,因此孩子可以在这些方面“花(cost)”更少的钱。8.B根据该段首句中的“On the good side”以及该段具体介绍孩童时期的好处可知,当一个孩子是人生中“令人兴奋的(exciting)”时期。9.D文章首段提出本文的论点:“being a child has bot

24、h advantages and disadvantages”。上一段陈述了当孩子的好处,本段接下来介绍其弊端。因此,当孩子“也(also)”有不好的一面。10.A根据上文中的“you have to spend all day .at school”和下文中的“means you have to do homework”可知,这里说“学习(Studying)”这件事。11.C上文中的“you have to”和下文中的“you have to”之间构成并列关系,故填and。12.B根据上文中的“you have to do homework”可知,作为学生,得完成家庭作业,而且还得参加“考试

25、(exams)”。13.C根据下文中的“your parents if you can do things,from going shopping in town to staying out late or going to a party”可知,父母很少“允许(allowed)”自己的孩子做任何他们想做的事。14.A作为孩子,经常得“询问(ask)”父母自己是否可以去城里购物或晚点回家等事项。15.B根据全文讨论的中心是孩子可知此处填children。三、The reason why people cant resist the temptation of McDonalds is psy

26、chologically connected with colors of the logo.(要点1)Yellow and red are chosen to help increase peoples appetite and make the store sign easy to spot.(要点2)Another reason is that the human brain processes color before words or shapes.(要点3)Nowadays McDonalds takes advantage of the color philosophy to become more environmentally friendly by incorporating more of the color green into their store design.(要点4)
