【2】A privately 此處副詞修飾前面的fund, 帶入只有privately 私下資助更為合理

【3】 D. combination 空后面接了of the Persian word “karvan”和and seray, a palace or enclosed building 表示是這兩個詞的結合體詞為combination，

【4】C. describe 根據(jù)上一句對與詞Caravanserais的解釋，這一句也是表示同義方向的內容，用來解釋The Perm caravan，這里只有描述這個詞可以表達詞義。

【5】C. such as groups of people 是前面的大范疇的名詞短語，而空后面merchants, travellers or pilgrims 為小范疇的內容，所以需要表示列舉關系，只有such as 復合語義。

【6】A. construction 根據(jù)第一段第一句表示Caravanserais …… were built 可以看到同義句意 the construction of the Caravanserais。

【7】B. faced 前一句講到 safe place ，后面Travellers …… possibility of being attacked，這里需要一個動詞搭配，帶入可知只有旅行者面臨被襲擊的可能性。

【11】D. As a result 前后提到Caravanserais served as an informal meeting point( Caravanserais被當作一個非正式會面的點)，空格后接those structures became important centers(這些地方被當作重要的中心)，可以得出前后為因果關系，只有as a result,可以滿足。

【12】C. exchange and 前后詞義相近，與interaction”互動;交往”詞義相近的是exchange “交換;交流”。

【13】C. as well as 文中 獨立主格中with travelers sharing their cultures, ideas and beliefs, () talking knowledge with them 可以看出sharing cultures，ideas and beliefs 和后面talking knowledge with them 為并列關系，只有 as well as 符合正確答案。

【18】B. predicted 空格后提到round 120000 to 15000 caravanserais were built，是一個預估的事情，所以只能選擇predicted.

A. She exaggerates the existing panic.

B. She denies the value of scientific work.

C. She shows no concern for pre-teens.

A. curb short-term rental speculation.

A. The urgency to upgrade short-term rental facilities.

B. The efficient operation of the local housing market.

C. The necessity to stop developers from evading taxes.

D. The proper procedures for renting out spare houses.

A. An ongoing conflict

B. An intellectual concept

C. A prevailing sentiment

D. A literary phenomenon

【31】A. An ongoing conflict 解析：該題為例證題。題干問作者提及兩本書的目的是什么。例證題論據(jù)出現(xiàn)在開頭，論點應該往后找，下一句話提到這兩本書都將于下周由企鵝蘭登書屋出版，該公司目前正與水石書店發(fā)生對峙，(Both of these books are published next week by Penguin Random House, a company currently involved in a stand-off with Waterstones.)，因此證明目前出版社和書店正在發(fā)生沖突。故選A。

B. To comply with PRH’s requirement

C. To respond to PRH’s business move

Part B

[A] This year marks the 150th anniversary of a series of Yellowstone photographs by the renowned landscape photographer William Henry Jackson. He captured the first-ever shots of iconic landmarks such as the Tetons, Old Faithful and the Colorado Rockies. Jackson snapped them on a late 19th-century expedition through the Yellowstone Basin that was conducted by the head of the U.S. Geological and Geographical Survey of the Territories, Ferdinand V. Hayden. The team included a meteorologist, a zoologist, a mineralogist, and an agricultural statistician.

[B] Two centuries ago, the idea of preserving nature, rather than exploiting it, was a novel one to many U.S. settlers. One of the turning points in public support for land conservation efforts — and recognizing the magnificence of the Yellowstone region in particular — came in the form of vivid photographs.

[C] As an effective Washington operator, Hayden sensed that he could capitalize on the expedition’s stunning visuals. He asked Jackson to print out large copies and distributed them, along with reproductions of Moran’s paintings, to each member of Congress. “The visualization, particularly those photographs, really hit home that this is something that has to be protected,” says Murphy.

[D] Throughout the trip, Jackson juggled multiple cameras and plate sizes using the collision process that involved coating the plates with a chemical mixture, exposing them and developing the resulting images with a portable darkrooms. The crude technique required educated guesses on exposures times, and involved heavy, awkward equipment--several men had to assist in its transportation. Despite these challenges, Jackson captured dozens of striking photos, ranging from majestic images like his now-famous snapshot of old faithful, to casual portraits of expedition members that the camp. While veterans of previous expeditions had written at length about stunning sights, these vivid photographs were another thing entirely.

[E] The well-documented Yellowstone journey officially began in Ogden, Utah on June 8, 1871. Over nearly four months, dozens of men made their way on horseback into Montana and traversed along the Yellowstone River and around Yellowstone Lake. That fall, they concluded the survey in Fort Bridger, Wyoming.

[F] Though Native Americans (and later miners and fur trappers) had long recognized the area’s riches, most Americans did not. That’s why Hayden’s expedition aimed to produce a fuller understanding of the Yellowstone River region, from its hot springs and waterfalls to its variety of flora and fauna. In addition to the entourage of scientists, the team also included artists: Painter Thomas Moran and photographer William Henry Jackson were charged with capturing this astounding natural beauty and sharing it with the world.

[G] The bill proved largely popular and sailed through Congress with large majorities in favor. In quick succession, the Senate and House passed legislation protecting Yellowstone in early 1872.

[H] Perhaps most importantly, these images provided documentary evidence of the park’s sights that later made its way to government officials. Weeks after completing the expedition, Hayden collected his team’s observations into an extensive report aimed at convincing senators and representatives, along with colleagues at government agencies like the Department of the Interior, that Yellowstone ought to be preserved (and that his department deserved additional funds).

41 A 42 E 43 H 44 45

【41】B

首先排除AEH選項，其次，C、D中出現(xiàn)了Jackson 非全名，所以排除，F(xiàn)中出現(xiàn)Hayden 非全名排除， G the bill 表示前面出現(xiàn)過，排除， H perhaps most importantly, these images 可知前面出現(xiàn)過images，可排除，答案只能是B。

【42】F

A中出現(xiàn)The team included…… F中出現(xiàn)In addition to the entourage of scientists, the team also……根據(jù)邏輯關系可知，F(xiàn)緊跟A后，所以答案是F

【43】D

D 中出現(xiàn)Throughout the trip與E中的The well-documented Yellowstone journey……同義復現(xiàn)。以及D中出現(xiàn)images，H中出現(xiàn)these images。所以答案是D

【44】C

He asked Jackson to print out large copies and distributed…… to each member of Congress. 講到打印出大量得復印品分發(fā)給國會，讓國會參與。

Here is a picture, interesting and with profound implication. As is vividly depicted in the photo, two elderly people are watching the dragon boat races, which successfully captures our eyes. They are satisfied and delighted to see the growing popularity of Dragon Boat Race with an increasing number of people getting involved. Apparently, what the drawing has subtly conveyed is supposed to be given further analysis.

Actually, the cartoon shows a heated phenomenon, namely, the inheritance of traditional festivals and culture. Theoretically, this issue can be analyzed from several perspectives, but for my part, the following three are of utmost importance. First of all, the comprehensive and continuous development of our economy might exert great influence, which allows residents to lead a full and varied life and participate in festival celebrations. In addition, this situation may exist based on the fact that our country has been sparing no efforts to protect and carry forward traditional festivals and customs. Furthermore, the role of the media is also noteworthy whose publicity and coverage further expand the public's attention to traditional festivals and customs, especially among young people.

Based on the above discussions, we can conclude that traditional Chinese festivals indeed deserve much concern and full-scale consideration. It is highly suggested that all sectors of society make own parts to look forward to the further progress and prosperity of traditional Chinese festivals and culture.
