Ⅳ.應用文寫作你校英文廣播站需要招聘一名廣播主持人。請你寫一則招聘啟事,刊登在校英文報上,內容包括:1.應聘條件;2.崗位職責。注意:1.寫作詞數應為80左右;2.請在相應位置作答。AnnouncerWanted_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________答案:Ⅰ.【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了莫高窟的概況、歷史以及現狀。1.D細節理解題。根據第一段的“Around1900,withthediscoveryofalibraryofthousandsofancientdocuments,thecavesreceivednewinterestfromChineseandforeignresearchers.”可知,大約在20世紀初,莫高窟重新引起了中外研究人員的興趣。2.D推理判斷題。根據第二段“Inthe1940s,manyresearchersandartists...wasformedtoprotectandstudytheMogaoGrottoes.”可知,20世紀40年代,許多研究人員和藝術家通過他們的努力,讓人們了解了敦煌。由此推知,文章提及20世紀40年代的藝術家們是為了贊賞他們在傳承莫高窟文化上的貢獻。3.B細節理解題。根據第三段的“Whilethecavesareopentothepublic,accessisnowlimitedinordertoprotecttheartwork.However,thecavescanbeseenonlineindigitalformsothatpeoplearoundtheworldcanstudyandenjoythem.”可知,為了保護藝術品,現在莫高窟被限制進入,然而,人們可以在網上以數字模型的形式看到、研究和欣賞它們。4.B主旨大意題。通讀全文可知,文章在第一段講述了莫高窟重新獲得人們關注的原因;第二段提及20世紀40年代的藝術家們在傳承莫高窟文化上所做的努力,贊賞了他們的貢獻;第三段講述莫高窟被列為聯合國世界文化遺產;第四段講述了莫高窟的藝術價值。因此,本文主要介紹了沙漠中的藝術長廊——莫高窟。故選B項。【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了羅馬斗獸場,它建于大約兩千年前,在14世紀的一場地震中幸存下來,大部分150多英尺高的建筑仍然屹立不倒。它見證了巨大建筑和羅馬帝國的興衰。為什么古代建筑能經受住時間的考驗,而許多現代建筑在幾十年后就倒塌了?科學家認為,古羅馬人使用了一種特殊的混凝土,這可能是它長久存在的原因。5.C細節理解題。根據第一段的“ScientistsbelievetheancientRomansusedaspecificconcretewhichmayaccountforitssuper-longexistence.”可知,羅馬斗獸場還能存在的原因是它含有一種特殊的材料。故選C項。6.D細節理解題。根據第二段的“AteamofresearchersrecentlydiscoveredamagicalpoweroftheRomanconcrete:self-healing.Andthekeyactuallyliesinthetinypiecesoflimestone.”可知,石灰石的功能是使建筑能夠自我修復。故選D項。7.C詞義猜測題。根據第三段的“Quicklimereactedwithwaterandproducedheatthatsetupachemicalfoundationtostrengthenthebuildingmaterial.”以及畫線單詞所在句中的“Meanwhile”可知,畫線單詞it指的就是上文提到的生石灰。8.C推理判斷題。根據最后一段的“Wehadtokindoffigureouthowtheydiditsothatwecanmakebettermaterials—andthen,youknow,inturn,bebetterguardsofourenvironment.”可知,從AinissaRamirez的話中我們可以推斷出羅馬人的智慧為環保建筑提供了啟示。Ⅱ.【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了越南武廣國家公園及其里面新物種的相關情況。1.B由下文“Itisinanareathatishardtogetto,foronething.Andit’sanareathat’sdifficulttowalkthroughbecausetherocksarecoveredwithalgaeandareveryslippery.”和普通公園易到達的常識可知,武廣國家公園難以到達,和普通公園不一樣,B項“然而,武廣不是一個普通的公園”切合語境。2.D由上文“Itisinanareathatishardtogetto,foronething.Andit’sanareathat’sdifficulttowalkthroughbecausetherocksarecoveredwithalgaeandareveryslippery.”可知,武廣國家公園難以到達,不同尋常,下文“Inthelasttwentyyears,severalnewspeciesofanimalsthathaveneverbeenseenanywhereintheworldbeforehavebeendiscoveredthere.Someofthemaresonewthatscientistshaven’tgiventhemofficialnamesyet!”介紹武廣國家公園里面發現了一些聞所未聞的新物種,這也是不同尋常之處,由此可知,該空應該進一步提及武廣國家公園的不平凡之處。D項“但這并不是武廣國家公園的全部不同尋常之處”切合語境。3.E由上文“ThenewanimalsdiscoveredattheparkincludetheVuQuangoxorSaola,a‘slow’deer,agiantmuntjac(theworld’slargest,infact),ablackdeeranda‘holy’goat.”和下文“aswellastwospeciesofamphibiansand15speciesofreptiles”可知,該空和上下文列舉了武廣國家公園里面發現的新物種,E項“在那里還發現了五種新的魚類”切合語境。4.G由上文“TheSaolawasthefirstnewspeciesoflargemammaltobediscoveredinmorethanfiftyyears,soitcausedalotofexcitementinthescientificworld.Itisastrangegoat-likecreaturethatlooksasifitissomehowrelatedtocattle.Ithashornsthatcanbebetweenoneandtwofeetlong,andthatseemtocomeoutoftheanimal’sheadatslightlydifferentangles.”可知,此段對Saola的外貌進行描述,故該空應承接上文繼續介紹Saola的相關情況,G項“這就是為什么它被稱為‘Saola’,在越南語中的意思是‘紡車樁’”切合語境。5.C由上文“ThecreaturehadhiddensafelyforgenerationsintheVuQuangarea.Butonceitwasdiscovered,itwasindanger.”和下文“Sadly,theSaolaisnowbeinghuntedandmaywellendupasanotherendangeredspecies.”可知,Saola處于危險之中,空格處和下文構成因果關系,正是因為獵人不尊重新物種,Saola才會被獵殺,C項“獵人不尊重新物種”切合語境。Ⅲ.【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。由于對明清時期鄉村建筑的出色保存,西遞和附近的宏村被聯合國教科文組織宣布為世界遺產,文章對其具有歷史特色的鄉村建筑進行了介紹。1.dating考查非謂語動詞。句意:2000年,因為對明清時期鄉村建筑的出色保存,西遞和附近的宏村被聯合國教科文組織宣布為世界遺產。dateback意為“追溯到”,和邏輯主語architecture構成主動關系,所以應用現在分詞形式作后置定語。故填dating。2.allowing考查非謂語動詞。句意:此外,徽州房屋重視日光,這體現在開放的室內庭院的建筑上,這可以讓陽光進入房間。動詞allow意為“允許”,和邏輯主語“openi
