A.todirectkidstobuildsolarcollectorsB.totrainyoungscientistsforcityplanningC.todevelopchildren’sproblemsolvingabilitiesD.tohelpyoungarchitectsknowmoreaboutdesigning答案:C解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第三段的“CBEPisasetofactivities,games,andimitationsthatteachthebasicstepsnecessaryforproblemsolving”看出,此計(jì)劃是為了提高孩子們解決問題的能力。22Anarchitectpaysaweeklyvisittotheclassroom.

A.tofindoutkids’creativeideasB.todiscusswiththeteacherC.togivechildrenlecturesD.tohelpkidswiththeirprogram答案:D解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第二段的“Withtheaidofanarchitect(建筑師)whovisitstheclassroomonceaweek,theyinventnewwaystomeettheseneedsandbuildmodelsoftheircreations.”看出,建筑師來教室是為了幫助孩子們解決程序中遇到的問題。23Whoisthedesigneroftheprogram?A.Anofficial.B.Anarchitect.C.Ateacher. D.Ascientist.答案:C解析:從第二段的“saystheteacherwhodevelopedthisprogram”看出老師是設(shè)計(jì)者。24Thechildrenfeelfreeintheprogrambecause.

A.theycandesignfuturebuildingsthemselvesB.theyhavenewideasandrichimaginationC.theyaregivenenoughtimetodesignmodelsD.theyneednotworryaboutmakingmistakes答案:D解析:從第二段的“becausetherearenowronganswersinafuturecontext”看出,孩子們感到自由的原因是不用擔(dān)心犯錯(cuò)誤。BIt’snottheflashiestcarintheworld.Notevenclose.Butthe1971VolkswagennamedHelioscandosomethingmostcarscan’t:runonsolarenergy—energyfromthesun’slightandheat!JoshuaBeehtold,14,andtheotherstudentsattheRiversideSchoolinLyndonville,Vermont,workedmanymonthstogetHeliosreadyforthe1999AmericanTourdeSol(“Sol”istheLatinwordfor“sun”).TheynamedtheircarafterHelios,thesungodinGreekmythology(神話).The4yearoldTourdeSolencouragestheuseof“green”,orenvironmentallyfriendlycarstohelpreducepollutionandsaveenergy.It’snotarace.Carsarejudgedonfuelefficiency(耗油量)ratherthanspeed.Intheweeklongevent,44carstookthe350miletourfromWaterbury,Connecticut,toLakeGeorge,NewYork.Ofthe23studentcars,Helioswastheonlyonebuiltbymiddleschoolstudents.AteacherdroveHelios,butthechildrentalkedwithpeoplewherevertheystoppedalongtheroad.“Thatwasmyfavouritepart,”saysAnnaBrowne,15.“Weexplainedhowthecarruns.”Dueinparttoold,inefficientbatteries,Heliosfinishedfourth—outoffour—initskind,thesunpoweredclass.“Wewerethereforthefunofit,”Annasays.“We’reproudofHelios,”saysArielGleicher,14.“It’sacarthat’sgoodfortheenvironment.”25WhatisspecialaboutthecarHeliosinthetext?A.Itwasbuiltbymiddleschoolstudents.B.Ithasanattractivedesign.C.Itwasmadein1971.D.Itwonthefourthprize.答案:A解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第三段最后一句“...Helioswastheonlyonebuiltbymiddleschoolstudents.”看出,Helios之所以特殊,是因?yàn)樗怯芍袑W(xué)生制造的。26Howmanysunpoweredcarstookpartintherace?A.1.

D.44.答案:B解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段的第一句“Dueinparttoold,inefficientbatteries,Heliosfinishedfourth—outoffour—initskind,thesunpoweredclass.”的outoffour看出,一共有四輛太陽能賽車參賽。27Whatwouldbethebesttitleforthetext?A.ThemakingofHeliosB.1999AmericanTourdeSolC.SunpoweredcarsontheroadD.UseofgreencarsinConnecticut答案:C解析:主旨大意題。這篇文章主要講幾個(gè)中學(xué)生制造的太陽能賽車上路參加比賽的事情,所以最好的題目是Sunpoweredcarsontheroad。28ThestudentsfeltproudofHeliosbecause.

A.itcouldrunasfaras350milesB.itwasfavouredbymanychildrenC.ithadhighqualitybatteriesD.itwasdrivenbycleanenergy答案:D解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一句“It’sacarthat’sgoodfortheenvironment.”看出,學(xué)生們對Helios感到驕傲的原因是:它是由綠色能源驅(qū)動(dòng)的。C(2016·全國高考甲)Fiveyearsago,whenItaughtartataschoolinSeattle,IusedTinkertoysasatestatthebeginningofatermtofindoutsomethingaboutmystudents.IputasmallsetofTinkertoysinfrontofeachstudent,andsaid:“MakesomethingoutoftheTinkertoys.Youhave45minutestodayand45minuteseachdayfortherestoftheweek.”Afewstudentshesitatedtostart.Theywaitedtoseewhattherestoftheclasswoulddo.Severalotherscheckedtheinstructionsandmadesomethingaccordingtooneofthemodelplansprovided.Anothergroupbuiltsomethingoutoftheirownimaginations.OnceIhadaboywhoworkedexperimentallywithTinkertoysinhisfreetime.Hisconstructionsfilledashelfintheartclassroomandagoodpartofhisbedroomathome.Iwasdelightedatthepresenceofsuchastudent.Herewasanexceptionallycreativemindatwork.HispresencemeantthatIhadanunexpectedteachingassistantinclasswhosecreativitywouldinfect(感染)otherstudents.Encouragingthiskindofthinkinghasadownside.Irantheriskoflosingthosestudentswhohadadifferentstyleofthinking.Withoutfailonewoulddeclare,“ButI’mjustnotcreative.”“Doyoudreamatnightwhenyou’reasleep?”“Oh,sure.”“Sotellmeoneofyourmostinterestingdreams.”Thestudentwouldtellsomethingwildlyimaginative.Flyingintheskyorinatimemachineorgrowingthreeheads.“That’sprettycreative.Whodoesthatforyou?”“Nobody.Idoit.”“Reallyatnight,whenyou’reasleep?”“Sure.”“Trydoingitinthedaytime,inclass,okay?”29TheteacherusedTinkertoysinclassinorderto.

A.knowmoreaboutthestudentsB.makethelessonsmoreexcitingC.raisethestudents’interestinartD.teachthestudentsabouttoydesign答案A解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段第一句“...IusedTinkertoysasatestatthebeginningofatermtofindoutsomethingaboutmystudents.”可知,這位老師最初給學(xué)生布置這個(gè)任務(wù)目的是了解這些學(xué)生。故選A項(xiàng)。30WhatdoweknowabouttheboymentionedinParagraph3?A.Helikedtohelphisteacher.B.Hepreferredtostudyalone.C.Hewasactiveinclass.D.Hewasimaginative.答案D解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段可以得知,這個(gè)男孩組裝好的玩具堆滿了美術(shù)教室的一個(gè)架子,家里的臥室也被占了相當(dāng)大的地方?！拔摇睘槟苡羞@樣一位有創(chuàng)造力的學(xué)生而倍感欣慰。他的存在意味著“我”的課堂上有了一位意想不到的教學(xué)助手,他的創(chuàng)造力會(huì)感染其他學(xué)生,讓他們也參與進(jìn)來。由此可以看出這個(gè)男孩是有創(chuàng)造力、有想象力的。故選擇D項(xiàng)。31Whatdoestheunderlinedword“downside”inParagraph4probablymean?A.Mistake. B.Drawback.C.Difficulty. D.Burden.答案B解析詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章第四段可知,鼓勵(lì)孩子有這種想象力也會(huì)有不利的一面。要冒一定的風(fēng)險(xiǎn),可能會(huì)失去那些有不同思維方式的學(xué)生。必定有人會(huì)說“我就是沒有創(chuàng)造力”。因此可以看出此段重在介紹上述這種做法存在的弊端。因此B項(xiàng)正確。32Whydidtheteacheraskthestudentstotalkabouttheirdreams?A.Tohelpthemtoseetheircreativity.B.Tofindoutabouttheirsleepinghabits.C.Tohelpthemtoimprovetheirmemory.D.Tofindoutabouttheirwaysofthinking.答案A解析推理判斷題。文章第四段最后一句“ButI’mjustnotcreative.”引出下文師生間的對話,根據(jù)文章最后一句“Trydoingitinthedaytime,inclass,okay?”可以看出,老師以孩子晚上做的夢引出白天課堂上要勇于嘗試,大膽想象。因此A項(xiàng)正確。第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。33.Peopleusemoneytobuyfood,furniture,books,bicyclesandhundredsofotherthingstheyneedorwant.Whentheywork,theyusuallygetpaidinmoney.
