Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
Did you realize that every single thing you buy affects our environment? And just think about the number of people in the world and the amount of things they're buying each day! It's unbelievable.
6
The developed countries take up only 20% of the earth—yet we use up over 80% of the planet's natural resources. This has led to a very unfair wealth distribution(分布). We are all consumers, so we're all part of the problem! But as long as we care enough, we can change things and keep our waste to the minimum(最少量). So how might we do this?
On November 24 you have to do just one thing: buy nothing! I don't know about you, but when I think about it, I probably do buy things I won't use. Like a dress that looked good in the store but back home looks completely different!
All the little things build up, so just ask yourself a few questions: Do you really need the product and how often are you likely to use it? I always shop around for a good bargain, and I'm so glad I do. Sometimes it's too easy to buy an expensive item, only to find a cheaper version(版本) which is exactly the same later on!
You can find more tips and information by visiting the Buy Nothing Day website. And don't forget to check out and download the posters to advertise the day!
The Buy Nothing Day Santa Parade will definitely catch the public's eye a month before the big Christmas event! Although I'm not sure how the shoppers will go down with the security guards…

Stan Lee, cofounder of the Marvel Universe (漫威宇宙) and cocreator of many of its most popular superheroes, died at the age of 95.
Lee was born Stanley Martin Lieber in New York in 1922. As a son of workingclass Jewish immigrants from Romania, times were hard and he lived with his family in a shabby singlebedroom apartment. After graduating from high school at 16, Lieber landed a job as an assistant at Timely Comics. By the early 1940s, he was a temporary editor for the company. It was at this time that he began using his pen name—Stan Lee. In 1947, two years after returning from serving for the U.S. Army, Lee married his wife, Joan. The two began their 70year marriage and had two children.
In the late 1950s, DC Comics breathed new life into its classic superhero and experienced a significant success with its updated version of the Flash, and later with superteam the Justice League of America.
To compete against DC Comics, Lee was given the task of creating their own group of superheroes. In 1961, Timely Comics changed its name into Marvel Comics after Atlas Comics, and that November saw the debut(首次亮相)of the Fantastic Four. Lee's later famous and lasting creations of comicbook superheroes included SpiderMan, the Hulk, Thor, Iron Man and the XMen.
Over the course of his career, Lee was an icon of Marvel Comics. As a writer and editor and, at various points, both the publisher and vice president of Marvel Comics, Lee not only introduced interesting characters to the industry, but changed the way that comic books came together. He also created a cooperative workflow between writers and artists, which became known as the “Marvel Method”. Lee received a National Medal of Arts in 2008 for his innovations that revolutionized American comic books.

6
A.He served for the U.S. Army for two years.
B.He suffered from an unfortunate marriage.
C.He had a tough and struggling childhood.
D.He adopted his pen name at the age of 16.
解析 C 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句可知,斯坦·李拥有一个艰辛的童年,故选C项。
5.What was the company called when SpiderMan was created?
A.Timely Comics. B.Marvel Comics.
C.Atlas Comics. D.DC Comics.
解析 B 细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句可知,公司的名字按照时间顺序依次为Timely Comics→Atlas Comics→Marvel Comics,而蜘蛛侠是改名为Marvel Comics之后创作的,故选B项。
6.What does the underlined word “icon” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Statue. B.Agent.
C.Assistant. D.Symbol.
解析 D 词义猜测题。最后一段介绍了斯坦·李的成就,没有他可能就没有现在的漫威世界,所以他是漫威宇宙的标志,由此可推知, icon意为“标志”,故选D项。
7.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A.Stan Lee, the Godfather of Marvel Comics
B.The Development of Marvel Comics
C.Stan Lee, a Superhero in Comic Books
D.The Popular Superheroes of Marvel Comics
解析 A 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了漫威创始人之一斯坦·李的传奇一生,他被称为“漫威之父”。godfather意为“开拓者;发起者;创始人”,故选A项。
Ⅳ.语法填空

But the success of Sisyphe Bookstore, one of the 3.____________(big) privatelyowned bookstore chains in China, may serve 4.____________ a great example.

So far, the government 10.____________(offer) tax reduction for bookstores to encourage the development of physical bookstores. Perhaps it is early to say the boom of physical bookstores has come, but definitely, we see the turning point to them.
本文为说明文,主要介绍了中国实体书店的现状及西西弗书店的发展历程。
1.which 解析 考查引导词。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰前面的整个句子,且从句中缺少主语,所以用which引导该从句。
2.competition 解析 考查词性转换。根据语境以及空前的the和空后的with可推知,此处应用compete的名词形式competition,表示“竞争”。
3.biggest 解析 考查比较等级。“one of the+形容词最高级+名词复数”意为“最……的……之一”,为固定句式。
4.as 解析 考查介词。serve as适合作……用,为固定搭配,此处表示西西弗书店是一个很好的例子。
5.Founded 解析 考查非谓语动词。句中已有谓语动词,且空前无连词,故此处为非谓语动词;根据语境并分析句子结构可知,found与其逻辑主语Sisyphe之间为动宾关系,故用其过去分词形式。
6.selling 解析 考查非谓语动词。devote oneself to sth致力于某事,其中的to为介词,后面接动词作宾语,应用动名词形式。
7.creative 解析 考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,空处作定语修饰名词,故用形容词形式creative。
8.enables 解析 考查时态、主谓一致和词性转换。根据语境并分析句子结构可知,此处需要谓语动词;根据上文中的opens和and可知,此处应用一般现在时,且空前的主语it是第三人称单数,所以填enables。
9.it 解析 考查代词。分析句子结构可知,此处动词不定式为真正的主语,故用代词it作形式主语。
10.has offered 解析 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。so far为现在完成时的标志,且根据语境可知,offer与其主语the government为主谓关系,主语the government为单数,所以此处应填has offered。
