　　We finally did and it was __5__ at first sight.It was Our Home, small and charming, overlooking a quiet lake.Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a nice elderly couple, we felt the warmth and __6__ of the marriage within that home.As perfect as it was, the price remained too high for us.But every day, we would sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of __7__ it would be like to live there.

　　Days later, we made a(n) __8__—far below the asking price.Surprisingly, they didn't __9__ us.They renewed their offer __10__.It was also much more than we could afford, but far __11__ than the original asking price.

　　The next day, we got a __12__ message that another buyer had offered a much higher price.Even so, we decided to talk with the __13__ directly.We made our final offer, which __14__ was thousands of dollars less than the other buyer's bid.We knew it, __15__ we had to try.

　　“Sold！” said the owner.Then he __16__： He'd seen us sitting by the lake all those times; he knew how much we loved the place and that we'd __17__ the years of work they had put into their home; he realized he would take a __18__ by selling it to us, but it was worthwhile; we were the people they wanted to live there.He told us to consider the __19__ in the price “an early wedding present.”

　　That's how we found our home and how I learned that when people are __20__， they are not strangers, only friends we haven't yet met.

　　【主旨大意】本文講述了一對新婚夫婦以低價位買到滿意的房子的經(jīng)歷。

　　1．【答案】B

　　【解析】根據(jù)第三段中的“ …the price remained too high for us.”可知夫婦二人資金有限，limited意為“有限的；被限制的”，符合語境。needed意為“被需要的”，enough意為“足夠的；充分的”，large意為“大的”，均不符合語境。

　　2．【答案】A

　　【解析】recommend意為“推薦”；decorate意為“裝修”；sell意為“銷售”；rent意為“租賃”。根據(jù)下文“she kept urging us to have a look”可知，這位房產(chǎn)經(jīng)紀人是給“我們”推薦房子，故選A項。

　　3．【答案】C

　　【解析】上文提到作者夫婦資金受限，這里說房產(chǎn)經(jīng)紀人對房子的描述聽起來很不錯，但空后提到“so we declined”可知，此價格超出了作者的承受范圍，故用beyond，意為“超出”。

　　4．【答案】A

　　【解析】句意為：不過她勸我們至少看一看。at least意為“至少”；at most意為“至多”；at times意為“不時；偶爾”；at hand意為“在手邊；即將到來”。只有A項符合語境邏輯。

　　5．【答案】C

　　【解析】根據(jù)該句后面Our Home以及charming等描述可知作者夫婦一眼就喜歡上了這套房子，故選C項。relief意為“緩解；解脫”，concern意為“關心；關注”，curiosity意為“好奇心”，均不符合語境。

　　6．【答案】B

　　【解析】根據(jù)上文的描述可知作者對房子非常滿意，設空處所填詞應與and前的并列成分warmth的感情色彩一致，故選happiness。pride意為“自豪”，challenge意為“挑戰(zhàn)”，desire意為“渴望”，均不符合語境。

　　7．【答案】D

　　【解析】分析句子結構可知，dreaming of后的賓語從句中介詞like后缺賓語，故此處用連接代詞what引導賓語從句。句意為：但是我們每天都會坐在湖邊，看著這套房子，夢想著我們住在那里會是什么樣子。

　　8．【答案】B

　　【解析】根據(jù)破折號后面的“far below the asking price”可知作者夫婦給出了報價。make an offer是固定搭配，意為“出價”。

　　9．【答案】D

　　【解析】由上文可知作者夫婦出價很低，根據(jù)surprisingly以及下文的“They renewed their offer…”可知，這對老夫婦并沒有因為作者夫婦出價低而嘲笑(laugh at)他們，而是重新定了房價。come across意為“偶然碰到”，look after意為“照顧；照料”，depend on意為“依靠；依賴”，均不符合語境。

　　10．【答案】A

　　【解析】上文提到老夫婦沒有嘲笑作者夫婦的價格，而是重新要價，可知此處的副詞表示轉折的意義，故用instead，意為“反之；而是”。

　　11．【答案】C

　　【解析】根據(jù)轉折連詞but可知第二次的要價比第一次低很多，故選C項。句意為：這個價格仍然遠遠超出我們能夠負擔得起的價位，但是它遠遠低于最初的要價。

　　12．【答案】B

　　【解析】根據(jù)message的同位語從句“that another buyer had offered a much higher price”可知，有人出價比作者夫婦高得多，對于他們來說，這當然是一個令人失望的(disappointing)消息，故選B項。relaxing意為“令人放松的”，pleasant意為“令人愉快的”，regular意為“有規(guī)律的”，均不符合句意。

　　13．【答案】D

　　【解析】根據(jù)下文 “‘Sold！’ said the owner.”可知，作者夫婦是與房主直接談的，故選D項。

　　14．【答案】B

　　【解析】根據(jù)設空處后面的“thousands of dollars less than the other buyer's bid”可知，作者夫婦的最終報價仍然比另一位買主的出價少，故用still，表示強調。

　　15．【答案】D

　　【解析】設空處前后兩個分句之間是轉折關系，故用轉折連詞but。

　　16．【答案】D

　　【解析】根據(jù)冒號后面房主說的一系列內容可知，房主在“成交”后向作者夫婦說明了他之所以這樣做的原因。explain意為“解釋”，符合語境。apologize意為“道歉”，complain意為“抱怨”，criticize意為“批評”，均不符合語境。

　　17．【答案】C

　　【解析】句意為：……他知道我們有多愛這個地方，他知道我們會感激(appreciate)他們這些年為這所房子的付出。check意為“檢查”，analyze意為“分析”，ignore意為“忽略”，均不符合語境。

　　18．【答案】A

　　【解析】因為房子是低價賣給作者的，所以說是一個損失(loss)。risk意為“風險”，chance意為“機會”，lead意為“引導”，均不符合語境。

　　19．【答案】B

　　【解析】句意為：他告訴我們就把價格的差異看成是提前送給我們的結婚禮物吧。根據(jù)上文內容可知房價的變化是“減少”，或者說是“不同”，但不是增加(increase)。interest意為“利潤；興趣”，average意為“平均水平”，均不符合語境。

　　20．【答案】A

　　【解析】根據(jù)空格后面的“they are not strangers, only friends we haven't yet met”以及上文中對于房東夫婦的描述，可知這類人應該用kind(好心的；善良的)形容。而polite(禮貌的)，smart(聰明的)與energetic(精力充沛的)均不適合。

　?、?閱讀理解

　　(2024安徽合肥168中學高三第二次段考，C)

　　Engineers should embrace the arts, Sir John O'Reilly, a fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology, argued in a lecture.

　　About 59% of engineering companies in the IET's 2024 survey feared skill shortages could threaten business.

　　“There is nothing as creative as engineering，” Sir John told the reporter.He says science, technology, engineering and mathematics－often known as “Stem” subjects, are vital for a modern knowledge economy.But there is a massive shortfall in the number of recruits(招聘)－with a recent study by the Royal Academy of Engineering saying the UK needs to increase by as much as 50% the number of Stem graduates it produces.

　　Delivering this year's Mountbatten Lecture at the Royal Institution, Sir John argued that engineers should recognize the role of the arts in their work－among other benefits; this could attract more people into the profession.The lecture, Full Steam Ahead for Growth, advocated a wider adoption—Stem, or science, technology, engineering, arts and maths.Engineers should embrace the arts as being key to creativity and an important component of innovation(創(chuàng)新), vital to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness, he argued.“Engineering and technology is an increasingly diverse and creative field，” said Sir John.

　　Some university engineering departments already cooperated with art schools to develop understanding, he told the reporter.In particular he mentioned Cranfield University's Centre for Creative Competitive Design and Imperial College's work with the Royal College of Art.The two sets of people could work well together and more emphasis on the creative side of engineering could improve the success of products, he said.

　　“Aesthetics(美學) is part of it，” he told the reporter, adding that Apple's iPod was not the first digital media player, nor the only one that worked－but it came to dominate the market “because it was nice to have”．

　　Sir John said he was not suggesting universities started requiring A-level art from engineering applicants－the key subjects for admission would continue to be maths and the sciences.But an emphasis on creative skills would help “broaden the pool and attract more people in”．

　　()1.According to the lecture Full Steam Ahead for Growth, ________.

　　A．engineers should cooperate with arts majors

　　B．a(chǎn)ccepting the arts could attract more people into engineering

　　C．engineers should realize arts play the most important part in their work

　　D．engineering and technology is as diverse and creative as before

　　()2.By giving the example of Apple's iPod, Sir John intends to ________.

　　A．stress the importance of arts

　　B．stress the importance of marketing

　　C．stress the importance of communication

　　D．stress the importance of science and technology

　　()3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A．More university students should study arts instead of engineering.

　　B．Engineering and technology are increasingly different and unrelated fields.

　　C．The IET's skills survey raised concerns about the number of recruits to engineering.

　　D．Some students from engineering departments have already transferred to art schools.

　　()4.What is the passage mainly about?

　　A．Lack of creativity in engineering lead to the difficulty finding a satisfactory job.

　　B．The key subjects for admission remain to be maths and the sciences rather than arts.

　　C．Engineering plants should cooperate with art schools to improve the sales of products.

　　D．Engineering needs to combine creativity and arts to benefit students' career choice.

　　【主旨大意】文章論述了理工科的教育應該和藝術教育結合起來，這樣能增加理工科學生的創(chuàng)造力和想象力。但理工科的主干學科仍然是數(shù)學、物理等等，藝術只是起輔助作用。

　　1．【答案】B

　　【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的“The lecture, Full Steam Ahead for Growth, … vital to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness，”可知：該講座認為工程師應該把藝術當作創(chuàng)造和創(chuàng)新的關鍵，所以選B。而A項(工程師應該和藝術專業(yè)人員合作)，C項(工程師應該意識到藝術在他們的工作中起最主要的作用)，D項(工程技術和以前一樣有創(chuàng)造力和多樣性)均與原文相悖。

　　2．【答案】A

　　【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的“because it was nice to have”可知：因為平板美觀。所以選A(藝術的重要性)。

　　3．【答案】C

　　【解析】細節(jié)理解題。A項(更多的大學生應該學習藝術而不是工程學)，錯誤。B項(工程和技術越來越不同，越來越?jīng)]聯(lián)系)，錯誤。C項(IET的調查報告引起了人們對工程技術人員數(shù)量的擔憂)，正確。D項(一些工程技術專業(yè)的學生已經(jīng)改為學習藝術了)，錯誤。

　　4．【答案】D

　　【解析】主旨大意題。根據(jù)全文，工程技術專業(yè)的學生應該把創(chuàng)造力和藝術結合在一起，才能有利于自己事業(yè)的發(fā)展。

　　(2024沈陽東北育才學校高三上學期二模，C)

　　La Gomera is the only place in the world that has a whistle language.We do not know how and why it began because we do not know the complete history of the island.But we can certainly imagine the reasons for the beginning of the whistle language.There are many deep valleys on the island.A person on one side of a valley can not easily shout to a person on the other side.But he can whistle and be heard.Some of the best whistlers can be heard from four miles away and the record is seven miles.

　　The people who live on the island usually have good teeth, and this helps them to whistle well.They must also have good ears so that they can hear other whistlers.

　　We can understand why the whistle language continues.It is very useful on the island, and quite easy to learn.When somebody is hurt or ill, the whistle language takes the place of telephone.If the sick person is quite far away from the town, people pass the message from one to another.A boy guarding cattle on a hillside whistles to a man fishing from his boat.The last one is able to describe the trouble fully and exactly to the doctor in town.People help one another in the same way when a car breaks down or a cow is lost.
