Have you ever seen an old movie called Three Coins in the Fountain? It is about three young American

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是浪漫的起源。
【1题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:它讲述了三个年轻的美国女人在罗马寻找永恒的爱情,她们都找到了。分析句子结
构可知,句中谓语是 is,空格处用非谓语形式,women 和search 是主谓关系,空格处用现在分词表主动,
故填 searching。
【2题详解】
考查定语从句的引导词。句意:罗曼史一词在拉丁语中从罗马语演变到罗马语中的 Romanicus,再到古法
语的 romanz escrive,意思是“用罗曼语写作”,然后再到英语罗曼史。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导非
限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词 the Old French romanz escrive 是物,因此空格处用关系代词
which,故填 which。
【3题详解】
考查固定短语,时态和主谓一致。句意:罗曼语由七种以拉丁语为基础的语言组成。句子描述的是客观事
实,时态用一般现在时,be composed of 是固定短语,意为“由......组成”,主语 languages 是复数,因
此空格处是 are composed,故填 are composed。
【4题详解】
考查介词。句意:罗曼语由七种以拉丁语为基础的语言组成。have...as the basis 是固定短语,意为“由……
为基础”,因此空格处是介词 as,故填 as。
【5题详解】
考查宾语从句的引导词。句意:古罗马平民讲的是通俗拉丁语,是一种非正式的语言,与受过良好教育的
人讲的古典拉丁语相反。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导的是宾语从句,从句中缺少主语,指代语言,因
此引导词用 what,故填 what。
【6题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:中世纪传奇小说主要是用法国诗歌写的关于勇敢英雄的故事。分析句子结构可知,
句中谓语是 were,空处应用非谓语动词作后置定语,tales 和write 之间为被动关系,因此空格处用过去分
词表被动,故填 written。
【7题详解】
考查不定式。句意:与另一个人发生浪漫关系的概念被认为是在中世纪的某个时候发展起来的。sb. /sth. be
thought to do 是固定短语,意为“某人/某物被认为要做某事”,因此空格处是不定式,概念已经发展完了,
因此空格处用不定式的完成式,即 to have done,故填 to have developed。
【8题详解】
考查连词。句意:在 18 世纪末一直到 19 世纪,浪漫不是爱情故事,而是包含牵强、神秘事件的散文式小
说。根据语境可知,句子意为“浪漫不是爱情故事,而是包含牵强、神秘事件的散文式小说”,not...but...
是固定短语,意为“不是......而是......”,故填 but。
【9题详解】
考查时态。句意:这一时期的浪漫小说包括英国哥特式小说,如贺拉斯·沃波尔的《奥特朗托城堡》。句
子描述过去的动作,因此时态用一般过去时,空格处用过去式 included,故填 included。
【10 题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:当一个人恋爱时,他总是以欺骗自己开始,以欺骗奥索结束。根据语境可知,句子
表示“当一个人恋爱时,他总是以欺骗自己开始”,因此空格处是“某人自己或他自己”,即 oneself/
himself,故填 oneself/himself。
Section B (30 分)
(A)
Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that
there is one word more than you need.
A. destructive B. relatives C. experts D. contribute E. particularly
F. fearful G. gently H. assist I. respond J. species K. equivalent
Cats: Human Companions
Cats have a reputation for being colder and less cuddly (令人想拥抱的) than their counterparts---dogs. Cats
may not be able to speak English but they do have many other ways in which they can interact with people. In fact,
cats are animals which can solve problems just like any other highly developed ___11___. They form close
relationships with their owners and provide a sense of companionship, ___12___ for women. In fact, the findings
of one Austrian study show that owning a cat is the emotional___13___ of being in a romantic relationship.
Some people feel silly talking to their pets, since, of course, they can’t ___14___. But interacting with your
feline (猫科的) companion has proven health benefits. Not only does talking to your cat improve your bond, but
it’s also said to be beneficial for your mental health by helping improve your mood, reduce stress, and fight against
loneliness.
Cats are ___15___ at sleeping, so it’s perhaps no surprise that they can help improve your sleep, too. A Mayo
Clinic study found that people who slept with their pets in the same room were almost twice as likely to get a good
night’s rest, with only 20 percent saying they found their pets’ presence___16___.
Cats may not be able to help with the housekeeping, but they can ___17___ in keeping your house free of
mice. It turns out there’s some truth behind the cartoon cat-and-mouse chase. When mice smell certain proteins in
cat saliva (唾液) , they become ___18___ and therefore avoid the area.
