Customs have been decisively changed by the movement of ships across the oceans. No one drank tea in medieval (中世纪的) Europe, but once contact had been made with the tea-drinking Chinese, tea became the favourite of millions of people from Sweden to the United States.”可推知,作者在本段提到茶这个例子,是为了强调通过海洋接触传播文化习俗。故选D项。 2.D 词义猜测题。根据前文“We tend to think that the opening of the oceans was the work of great explorers like Christopher Columbus, especially the 15th-century pioneers…”以及后文“…through uncharted waters to southern Africa, the Indian Ocean and the lands of the Indies.”可知,像哥伦布这样伟大的探险家们去探索未知水域时,应该是充满挑战的情况下谨慎前行,由此可推知画线短语应是“在充满挑战的情况下小心翼翼地前进”之意。故选D项。 3.A 细节理解题。根据第三段“There were scores of merchants who developed trade links across the world and started modern globalization…On the way, they got copper (铜) from Oman and brought precious objects such as carnelian (红玛瑙) from India. The Indian Ocean became one of the great channels of trade between nations.”可知,古代的苏美尔文明中的商人是海洋探索的先驱,他们在世界各地建立了贸易联系,开始了现代全球化。故选A项。 4.B 主旨大意题。根据第一段以及全文可知,文章主要讲述了海洋探索对人类历史的影响,包括促进了全球化、改变了人们的生活方式、推动了科技的发展等。B项“海洋探索改变了人类历史”适合做文章最佳标题。故选B项。 Ⅳ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国北方最大的淡水湖———白洋淀(又称白洋湖)。 1.recognition 考查名词。作动词gained的宾语,需填名词recognition,表抽象概念,不可数。故填recognition。 2.as 考查介词。be referred to as为固定搭配,意为“被称作”。故填as。 3.where 考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句,先行词为the lake,关系词在定语从句中作地点状语,需用关系副词where引导。故填where。 4.precisely 考查副词。修饰介词短语,需用副词precisely作状语。故填precisely。 5.Serving 考查非谓语动词。Baiyangdian Lake和serve为逻辑上的主谓关系,需填现在分词作状语;位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Serving。 6.expanded 考查动词时态。根据throughout the Northern Song Dynasty可知,此处陈述过去发生的事情,使用一般过去时。故填expanded。 7.has remained 考查动词时态和主谓一致。根据时间状语over time可知,使用现在完成时,主语为Baiyangdian Lake,助动词用has。故填has remained。 8.to restore 考查非谓语动词。此处作目的状语,需用不定式。故填to restore。 9.described ... ...
