【題目】If you’re dreaming of visiting one of those picture-perfect European towns filled with old-world attractiveness and scenic beauty, here is a look at the most beautiful small towns in Europe.

It has no modern buildings to ruin its appeal. With such quiet surroundings, including the traditional luzzu’s (fishing boats), it’s a particularly charming place to visit.

Portmagee, Ireland

In a country filled with beautiful towns, Portmagee, is a standout, sitting on the southwest coast of Ireland.This postcard-perfect seaside fishing town has a row of brightly colored buildings along with a rich and colorful history. At The Bridge Bar, you’ll find live music many nights of the week along with fantastic food and a fine glass of beer.

【答案】

2C

3A

4B

【解析】文章主要介紹了充滿了古老世界吸引力和美景的完美的歐洲城鎮(zhèn)

1細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Manarola“You can drive to Manarola, but you’ll have to park just outside the town and then take a shuttle bus or walk in on foot.” 你可以開(kāi)車去Manarola,但你必須將車停在小鎮(zhèn)外,然后乘穿梭巴士或步行?芍Manarola不允許自己開(kāi)車游覽。根據(jù)題意,故選C。

2推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Today, this pictures-like town is the main supplier of fish to the island nation that sits in the Mediterranean Sea. It has no modern buildings to ruin its appeal.” 如今,像圖畫(huà)似的城鎮(zhèn)是地中海島上的主要魚(yú)類供應(yīng)國(guó)。它沒(méi)有現(xiàn)代化的建筑來(lái)破壞它的吸引力。可知這個(gè)地方吸引人之處是魚(yú)和古老建筑。根據(jù)題意,故選C。

3推理判斷題。根據(jù)Manarola中“Manarola, Italy, is filled with rainbow-colored homes carved right into a wall of stone along the Mediterranean coast. This charming fishing town is famous for its unbelievable wine, and the paintings.” 馬納羅拉,意大利,沿著Mediterranean海岸布滿了有石頭墻雕刻的充滿彩虹顏色的家園。這個(gè)迷人的漁村以其令人難以置信的葡萄酒和繪畫(huà)聞名于世。以及Portmagee, Ireland 中“This postcard-perfect seaside fishing town has a row of brightly colored buildings along with a rich and colorful history! 這張明信片似的完美的海邊漁村有一排色彩鮮艷的建筑,還有豐富多彩的歷史?芍獌烧叩墓餐幨呛_厺O村。根據(jù)題意,故選A。

4詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)“it’s a particularly charming place to visit.” 這是一個(gè)特別迷人的地方可推知即使沒(méi)有現(xiàn)代建筑物,仍不會(huì)影響這著城鎮(zhèn)的吸引力。根據(jù)題意,故選B。

【題目】語(yǔ)法填空
In much of Asia, especially the stalled “rice bowl” cultures of China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, food is usually eaten with chopsticks.
Chopsticks are usually two long, thin pieces of wood or bamboo. They can also be made of plastic, animal bone or metal. Sometimes chopsticks are quite artistic. Truly elegant chopsticks might (make) of gold and silver with Chinese characters. Skilled workers also combine (結(jié)合) various hardwoods and metal(create) special designs.
The Chinese have used chopsticks for five thousand years. People probably cooked their food in large pots, (use) twigs (樹(shù)枝) to remove it. Over time,the population grew, people began cutting food into small pieces so it would cook more quickly. Food in small pieces could be eaten easily with twigs which(gradual) turned into chopsticks.
Some people think that the great Chinese scholar Confucius, lived from roughly 551 to 479 B.C., influenced the(develop) of chopsticks. Confucius believed knives would remind people of killings and (be) too violent for use at the table.
Chopsticks are not used everywhere in Asia. In India, for example, most people traditionally eat their hands.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,選擇最佳答案。How to Study Smarter, Not Harder
Here are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder:
Recite As You Study
Reciting—saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.
Take Fuller Notes
Notes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.
Study the Middle
The best time to review is soon after you've learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.
Sleep On It
Study before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It's easier to remember material you've just learned before sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you've fallen asleep.
Combine Memory and Understanding
There are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote. Ideas are best learned by understanding.
The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again.
(1)You can notice your mistakes by ________.
A.saying things out aloud
B.taking notes
C.studying the middle
D.sleeping on it
(2)When taking notes, you should ________ to better help you with reading.
A.underline important notes
B.write notes in your own words
C.take down every detail
D.write as quickly as possible
(3)The writer advises you to ________ as it is easier for you to remember material.
A.study after a period of activity
B.do some exercise after studying
C.study as soon as you get up
D.study before going to sleep
(4)Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding?
A.Thinking about an idea in different ways.
B.Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know.
C.Reading from the beginning to the end without stop.
D.Going back to what first made you confused and start again.
