　　A

　　Machu Picchu is so well-known and so certain to fill travelers with high expectation.No other South American place of interest comes close when it comes to the visitor number and broad attraction.Only Sacsayhuamon in Cuzco,which is usually part of a Machu Picchu tour route,is comparable for size and the architectural style.

　　Just with a bit of careful planning and the right approach,you will find the site as attractive as any on the planet.The charm of Machu Picchu,which means the “old mountain”in the local language,is obvious.It is a 550-year-old castle.It is high:7,973 feet above the sea level.It is large:the ruins are the size of a village,and combined with nearby forests and wild parks,the “historical santuary”,as UNESCO describes it,covers more than 116 square miles.It is also mysterious:we know it is partly used for people to live in and partly used for religious activities,but we are still guessing about its academic importance to the ancient people.

　　Machu Picchu is set in subtropical forests,providing a protected habitat for several endangered species,such as spectacled bears(眼鏡熊) and cat-like pumas(美洲獅).If lucky,you will enjoy American camels wandering in the mountain and you have a memorable trip that can last 14 days.You just have to work out how to catch that quiet moment and find the right time for a tourist-free photograph.

　　Machu Picchu is busiest in July and August,the peak tourist season and also the not-quite-so-wet season.It is never totally dry in the Andean foothills and you’ll probably get showers and thin fog surrounding the peaks at some stage of your visit during this period.

　　November to April is the rainy season,with January and February the wettest months,so the actual months of November and April are ideal if you want to avoid the heaviest crowds and heaviest rains.

　　For decades,the San Francisco Bay area has been the heart of the computer technology industry.Many of the biggest technology companies have their headquarters in the area called Silicon Valley.But the area has not always been associated with charity(慈善).

　　Now,a new generation of entrepreneurs(企業家) appears to be changing Silicon Valley.One example is Marc Benioff,a donor(捐贈者),who has called on wealthy donors to give more to their communities.He also is the founder of Salesforce.com,a computer service company in San Francisco which has helped build a children’s hospital and given millions of dollars to non-profit organizations in the city.

　　Money from the technology industry has also started to change the face of charity.Benjamin Soskis writes about the history and ideas behind charity in America.His articles have appeared in The Atlantic magazine and a number of major publications.He says,traditionally,donors gave after they spent much of their lives building up wealth.Usually donors are in their 70s.But an increasing number of people appearing on the list of top donors are younger than 40 years of age.Benjamin Soskis says that is something new.“There’s a whole new model that’s appearing in which people give and accumulate at the same time.”

　　Some of the young donors on this year’s top 50 list have started to change in the way people see charity.That is especially the case in the San Francisco area,where giving money and making money appear to be coming together.“I think it’s fair to say that charity is now a part of the Silicon Valley identity.”

　　【語篇導讀】本文主要介紹了美國硅谷的慈善新形象。

　　5.What is true of Marc Benioff?

　　A.He joined a non-profit organization.

　　B.He advised donors to build hospitals.

　　C.He made San Francisco a city of charity.

　　D.He set up the company of Salesforce.com.

　　答案:D

　　解析:考查細節理解。根據第二段的第三句“He also is the founder of Salesforce.com,a computer service company in San Francisco which has helped build a children’s hospital and given millions of dollars to non-profit organizations in the city”可知,Marc Benioff成立了Salesforce.com公司,即D項正確。

　　6.What is special about the donors of Silicon Valley?

　　A.They prefer to give rather than make money.

　　B.They give after accumulating a lot of wealth.

　　C.They are much younger than the usual donors.

　　D.They donate more money to their communities.

　　答案:C

　　解析:考查細節理解。根據第三段中的“Usually donors are in their 70s.But an increasing number of people appearing on the list of top donors are younger than 40 years of age.Benjamin Soskis says that is something new”可知,硅谷捐獻者比普通的捐獻者要年輕許多,即C項正確。

　　7.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

　　Ⅱ.七選五

　　(2024 山東濰坊五模)

　　What is your favorite color?Do you like yellow,orange,or red? 1.　 Do you prefer gray and blue?Then you are probably quiet,shy,and you would rather follow than lead.You tend to be a pessimist.At least,this is what psychologists tell us,and they should know,because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference,as well as the effect that colors have on human beings.2. If you happen to love brown,you did so,as soon as you opened your eyes,or at least as soon as you could see clearly.?

　　3.　 A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one;and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.4.　 A black bridge over the Thames River,near London,used to be the scene of more suicides(自殺)than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green.The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply.Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.?

　　5.　 It is an established fact that factory workers work better,harder,and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.?

　　A.On the other hand,black is depressing.

　　B.They tell us,among other facts,that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up—we are born with our preference.

　　C.The rooms are painted in different colors as you like.

　　D.If you do,you must be an optimist,a leader,an active person who enjoys life,people and excitement.

　　E.Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.

　　F.Life is like a picture or a poem,full of different colors.

　　G.Colors do influence our moods—there is no doubt about it.

　　答案與解析:

　　【語篇導讀】本文講述了顏色與人們的性格和情緒的關系,很多不同的顏色都是對應著不同的性格和情緒。

　　1.D　解析:考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷。根據下一句“Do you prefer gray and blue?Then you are probably quiet,shy,and you would rather follow than lead.You tend to be a pessimist.”說明喜歡灰色系的人是悲觀主義者;那么喜歡這些亮顏色的人很可能是樂觀主義者。故D項符合上下文。

　　2.B　解析:考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷。根據下文內容說明人們對顏色的偏愛是天生的,是生來就有的,后天無法培養出來。故B項解釋符合上下文。

　　3.G　解析:考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷。根據下文黃色能讓人感覺更興奮更放松,說明顏色可以影響我們的情緒。故G項符合上下文。

　　4.A　解析:考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷。根據下文的例子——泰晤士河上的黑顏色的橋過去常常是人們自殺的地方。說明黑色代表著壓抑。故A項正確。

　　5.E　解析:考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷。根據下面的例子機器被粉刷成橙色而不是黑色或者灰色,說明淡的顏色會讓人感覺更開心更積極。

　　Ⅲ.語篇填空

　　Years ago,when I was a poor artist trying to sell my paintings in local galleries,I 1.(live) in the heart of a city.The rent for my apartment was really cheap 2. it was in the middle of one of the busiest neighborhoods in town.People who visited me used to ask me 3. I could sleep.“Doesn’t the sound of the traffic bother you?How can you get 4.(use)to so much noise?”You see,there were also rows and rows of shops and bars playing loud music day and night and my apartment was above a really loud and noisy 5..But I found it all fascinating.If I were ever short 6. cash and couldn’t afford to do anything much,which in those days was usually the case,I could always go outside and take 7. look around.You see,there were always a great number of tourists visiting the shops,so I could always find someone 8.(interest) to talk with.And Joe,the owner of the bar below me,could always give me a little money to survive on in exchange for 9.(do) a few odd jobs for him.At the time,I suppose,I thought I was poor.Sometimes,we don’t realize how 10.(fortune) we are,do we??

　　答案與解析:

　　【語篇導讀】作者曾是一個窮困潦倒的畫家,住在嘈雜的鬧市區。難以繼日時,Joe會施以援手,這讓作者感到非常幸運。

　　1.lived　解析:考查一般過去時。本文描述的是多年前的事,因此用一般過去時。

　　2.because　解析:考查連詞。“我”的公寓的房租很便宜,因為“我”住在最繁忙之一的街區里。

　　3.how　解析:考查引導詞。根據語境可知,此處表示“拜訪我的人常問我是怎樣睡著的”。

　　4.used

　　5.one　解析:考查代詞。“我”住的公寓在一個很吵鬧的商店/酒吧上面。one代指商店或酒吧。

　　6.of　解析:考查介詞。be short of意為“缺少/短缺……”。

　　7.a　解析:考查固定短語。take a look意為“看一看”,是固定結構。

　　8.interesting　解析:考查形容詞。根據語境可知,此處表示“我找到某個有趣的人去交談”。

　　9.doing　解析:考查非謂語動詞。介詞“for”后應跟動詞-ing形式。

　　10.fortunate　解析:考查詞性轉換。根據語境可知,此空應填其形容詞形式。
