A.
Who would have thought that millions of people would buy a product containing living insects？A businessman named Milton Levine did. He created the Uncle Milton Ant Farm more than half a century ago. Today, grandchildren of the first ant colony owners are watching ants working hard on the farm. Milton Levine was not trained in the study of insects, also known as entomology. But he knew a lot about ants, and he designed an appealing way to share his knowledge.
Mr Levine began his career as a maker of unusual toys after World War Ⅱ. He had returned to his birthplace in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania，after serving in the United States military.He got the idea for his future career from a business newsletter, which suggested that the best chances for jobs at the time were in toys. He decided to make toys. They understood that American society was about to change. The huge population increase known as the Baby Boom was beginning. There would be a huge demand for children's toys.
One day, he saw ants parading around a swimming pool.The sight made Mr Levine remember how much he had liked watching ants as a boy on his uncle's farm. Those thoughts gave him the idea for the Uncle Milton Ant Farm.
Milton Levine developed a narrow, green plastic container. The top looked like a farm, showing a farmhouse, a barn, a bridge and a windmill(风车)．Under those images was a divider that separated the ants' underground and above¬ground areas.Under that was the sand where people could watch the ants digging passageways.
The first Uncle Milton Ant Farms were an immediate suess.They were sold in 19 56.Two years later，two million of the educational toys had been sold.
Through the years the toys continued to attract ant¬watchers. People bu y Uncle Milton Ant Farms from stores and order from websites. During his life, Mr Levine saw the sale of more than twenty million of his ant colonies.
The Uncle Milton Ant Farm tells far more than how to care for the ants. For example, people receiving an Uncle Milton Ant Farm learn that the little insects are strong. Some can carry loads fifty times heavier than they are. A writer r emembers owning an Uncle Milton Ant Farm when he was about five years old.He says he became very good at numbers by counting the ants.
16．Which of the following words can best describe Milton Levine?
A．Strong. B．Creative.
C．Loyal. D．Humorous.

Does Fame Drive You Crazy?
Although being famous might sound like a dream e true, today’s star, feeling like zoo animals, face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the world’s attention. Paparazzi (狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小报) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just
imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature.
Aording to psychologist Christina Villareal, celebrities ― famous people ― worry constantly about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villareal says, “they feel separated and alone.”
The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B.C., painters followed
Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited
America in the 19th century, his sold-out readings attracted thousands of fans, leading him to plain (抱怨)
about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.
Being a public figure today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something silly or do something
ridiculous, there is always the Inter to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.
If fame is so troublesome, why aren’t all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place.
Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often plain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.
20. It can be learned from the passage that stars today___________.
A. are often misunderstood by the public
B. can no longer have their privacy protected
C. spend too much on their public appearance
D. care little about how they have e into fame
21. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. Great heroes of the past were generally admired.
B. The problem faced by celebrities has a long history.
C. Well-known actors are usually targets of tabloids.
D. Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers.
22. What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today?
A. Availability of modern media.
B. Inadequate social recognition.
C. Lack of favorable chances.
D. Huge population of fans.
23. What is the author’s attitude toward modern celebrity?
A. Sincere.B. Sceptical.C. Disapproving.D. Sympathetic.

参考答案
Ⅰ.1.D　考查冠词。astronomy指学科，学科前不用冠词；space指“太空”，一般不与冠词连用，但有形容词修饰时，应使用定冠词。
2．A　句意：我们完成设计后就该由公司来进行建设了。in one's turn固定搭配，意思是“轮到某人，接着”。
3．B　句意：自这次灾难以来，所有的人，不管是年老的还是年轻的，富有的还是贫穷的，都在尽自己最大的努力去帮助那些需要帮助的人。whether…or…是固定搭配，意为“无论是……还是……，不管是……还是……”。
4．C　考查非谓语动词。句意：如果他们赢了今晚的决赛，队员们将会巡游全城，接受热心支持者的欢呼。A项being cheered正在进行；B项be cheered是谓语原形；D项were cheered也是谓语，但句中已有谓语are going to；C项to be cheered表示将来，同时也表示被动。根据语境，选C。
5．C　考查固定词组搭配。prevent sb from doing sth“阻止某人做某事”，本句中的fishing boats和attack是被动关系，所以选择C项，且此处不用完成时态。句意：中国最近加紧黄岩岛的水域控制来阻止中国渔船在中国南海被袭击。
6．A　考查非谓语动词。find small groups of words puzzling，puzzling作宾语补足语，表示“让人迷惑的”。
7．C　考查非谓语动词。to present themselves to the employers为动词不定式短语作目的状语。
8．C　考查代词it的用法。此处 it作形式宾语，when and where the meeting would be held是真正的宾语。当复合宾语中的宾语是宾语从句时，往往把宾语放在它的补语的后面，而把代词it放在全句谓语动词和宾语补语的中间。宾语补语后面的宾语是真正的宾语，谓语动词和宾语补语中间的it是形式宾语。
9．C　考查形容词辨析。句意：很明显，加强两国的战略伙伴关系与两国以及两国人民的根本利益是一致的。traditional传统的，惯例的；potential潜在的，可能的；fundamental基础的，根本的，十分重要的；secure安全的，牢固的。
10．B　考查动词辨析。句意：获取更多有关如何使用这些工具的信息可以增加你的成功机会。raise举起，提高，筹集，养育；multiply乘，增加；add将……相加，增加(＋to)；gain获得。
11．B　考查状语从句的连接词。此处now that意为：既然。句意：因为当今大多数孩子是独生子，所以他们更加自我。
12．A　考查倍数的表达法。此处结构为：倍数＋as＋adj./adv.。
13．C　考查形容词辨析。句意：丈夫和妻子之间发生了一次激烈的争吵，之后，妻子离家出走，再也没回来。violent激烈的，暴力的。sensitive敏感的；serious严重的，严肃的；strict严格的。
14．B　考查短语辨析。句意：多年来她一直想要封闭那段可怕的回忆，但这一点儿都不容易。live on意为“靠……过活，以……为主食，继续存在”； block out意为“挡住，遮住(光线或声音)；忘掉，抹去(不愉快的事)；塞住，封住(孔、洞)”；bring back意为“带回来，使记起，使恢复”； call up意为“给……打电话，使想起”。根据句意可知B项正确。
15．D　考查情景交际。that depends那依情况而定。
Ⅱ.本文介绍了Uncle Milton Ant Farm蚂蚁农场玩具的发明者Milton Levine。
16．B　推理判断题。从他设计玩具Uncle Milton Ant Farm的相关信息可以看出他极具创新精神。
17．B　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Milton Levine was not trained in the study of insects，also known as entomology.”可知entomology是“昆虫学”之意。根据常识可知只有butterflies(蝴蝶)属于昆虫，会在昆虫学中学到，故B项正确。
18．D　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“He got the idea for his future career from a business newsletter.”“The huge population increase known as the Baby Boom was beginning.There would be a huge demand
for children's toys.”以及第三段中的“…he saw ants parading around a swimming pool.”等信息可知，他从商务通讯、婴儿潮及蚂蚁搬家中得到启发，发明了这个蚂蚁农场玩具。D项没有提到。
19．C　段落大意题。根据最后一段的中心句“The Uncle Milton Ant Farm tells far more than how to care for the ants.”可知，本段主要讲这个蚂蚁农场玩具除了告诉大家怎么去照顾蚂蚁外，还有更深层的教育功能。
20.【答案】：B
【解析】：此题为细节题。从文章首段重点“paparazzi”等词可以看出本文是一篇以明星隐私不能得到良好保护为主题的文章。本题中ACD三个选项都与这个大方向偏离甚远故不能选。
21.【答案】：B
【解析】：此题为主旨题。第三自然段的首句直接给出明确答案，此句译作跟踪明星的现象由来已久，故答案选B。
22.【答案】：A
【解析】：此题为细节题。做此题有两种可行方法。第一，由文章主旨可知，本文是关于明星和媒体关系的文章，准确讲是媒体对于明星生活的影响。故本题答案应与媒体产生关系，否则此题答案所在的段落便会跑题故选A。第二，相对传统的做法。通过四段首句可知答案在这一段当中出现，第二句的photographer的出现是A选项的直接对应。
23.【答案】：D
【解析】：此题为作者态度题。文章最开始和最后都有体现。最开始作者谈到狗仔队对于明星生活的影响，最后谈到明星们的种种无奈，故答案选D。
