Paintings that depict (描述) famous people and historical scenes cover office buildings and freeway walls all access the city. With a collection of more than 2,000 murals, Los Angeles is the unofficial mural capital of the world.
But the combination of graffiti (涂鴉) , pollution, and hot sun has left many L.A. murals in terrible condition.__________(46) In the past, expertssay, little attention was given to caring for public art. Artists were even expected to maintain their own works, not an easy task with cars racing by along the freeway.
__________(47) The work started in 2003. So far,16 walls have been selected and more may be added later.
Until about 1960, public murals in Los Angeles were rare. But in the 1960s and 1970s, young L.A. artists began to study early 20th-century Mexican mural painting. __________ (48)
The most famous mural in the city is Judith Baca's "The Great Wall", a 13-foot-high (4-meter-high) painting that runs for half a mile (0.8 kilometer) in North Hollywood, __________(49) It took eight years to complete--400 underprivileged teenagers painted the designs- and is probably the longest mural in the world.

【2】補(bǔ)全短文試題
The Day a Language Died
When Carios Westez died at the age of 76, a language died, too. Westez, more commonly known as Red Thunder Cloud, was the last speaker of the Native American language Catawba.
Anyone who wants to hear the songs of the Catawba can contact the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., where, back in the 1940s, Red Thunder Cloud recorded a series of songs for future generations.__________(46) They are all that is left of the Catawba language. The language that people used to speak is gone forever.
We are all aware of the danger that modern industry can cause the world's ecology (生態(tài)) .
However, few people are aware of the impact widely spoken languages have on other languages and ways of life. English has spread all over the world. Chinese, Spanish, Russian, and Hindi have become powerful languages as well.__________(47) When this happens, hundreds of languages that are spoken by only a few die out.
Scholars believe there are around 6,000 languages around the world, but more than half of them could die out within the next 100 years. There are many examples, Araki is a native language of the island of Vanuatu, located in the Pacific Ocean. It is spoken by only a few older adults, so like Catawba, Araki will soon disappear. Many languages of Ethiopia will have the same fate because each one has only a few speakers.__________ (48) In the Americas,100 languages, each of which has fewer than 300 speakers, are dying out.
Red Thunder Cloud was one of the first to recognize the danger of language death and to try to do something about it. He was not actually born into the Catawba tribe, and the language was not his mother tongue.__________(49) The songs he sang for the Smithsonian Institution helped to make Native American music popular. Now he is gone, and the language is dead.
What does it mean for the rest of us when a language disappears? When a plant insect or animal species dies, it is easy to understand what has been lost and to for the balance of the natural word. However, language is only a product of the mind. To be the last remaining speaker of a language, like Red Thunder, must be a peculiarly lonely destiny, almost as strange and terrible as being the last surviving member of a dying species.__________ (50)
A. Some people might want to learn some of these songs by hearts.
B. In New Guinea is an extremely rich source of different language, but more than 100 of them are in danger of extinction (滅絕) .
C. However, he was a frequent visitor to the Catawba reservation in South Carcinoma where he learned the language.
D. These languages don't have many native speakers.
E. For the rest of us, when a language dies, we lose the possibility of a unique way of seeing and describing the world.
F. As these languages become more powerful, their use as tools of business and culture increase.
答案與解析
46.A。從原文來看，空白處前面一句講到那些想要聽卡托巴語歌曲的人就需要聯(lián)系Smithsonian機(jī)構(gòu)，因?yàn)樵缭?0世紀(jì)40年代，Red Thunder Cloud為未來的后代灌錄了一系列的歌曲;空白處后一句說的是這些歌曲都是以卡托巴語而保留的。由此可知空白處應(yīng)該討論這些卡托巴語歌曲的事情，所以A(有些人可能想要用心學(xué)習(xí)這些歌曲)比較合適，符合內(nèi)容一致的原則。
47.F。從原文來看，空白處前面一句講的是漢語、西班牙語、俄語和北印度語已經(jīng)變成很強(qiáng)大的語言(powerful)，與F項(xiàng)中powerful一致，而且these languages與空白處前的languages“Chinese，Spanish，Russian，and Hindi”指代也比較一致，所以F(當(dāng)這些語言變得更加強(qiáng)大時(shí)，他們作為商業(yè)和文化的工具的使用就會(huì)增加)符合原文，符合指代一致的原則。
48.B。從原文來看，空白處之前的句子說的是埃塞俄比亞的許多語言也面臨著消亡的命運(yùn)，因?yàn)檎f那些語言的人太少了;空白處之后的句子說的是在美洲有近100種語言因?yàn)檎f話人少于300人也正在消亡。所以空白處談?wù)摰囊矐?yīng)該是語言消亡的例子，再結(jié)合第三段的首旬可知本段主要談?wù)撜Z言的消亡，所以B(新幾內(nèi)亞有著非常豐富的不同語言的來源，但是有100多種語言正瀕臨滅絕)是正確答案，符合內(nèi)容與段落主題句一致的原則，其中die out反復(fù)出現(xiàn)。
49.C。從原文來看，空白處前面一句講的是Red Thunder Cloud并非出生在卡托巴，而且卡托巴語也不是其母語;空白處后一句講的是他為Smithsonian機(jī)構(gòu)所唱的歌曲使得美洲本土的音樂流行起來。因此，空白處談?wù)摰倪�是RedThunderCloud唱歌的問題，所以C(但是，他經(jīng)常訪問South Carcinoma的Catawba的保留地，并在那里學(xué)會(huì)了這種語言)比較符合原文語義，從邏輯上解釋了為什么卡托巴不是Red Thunder Cloud的母語，但是他卻會(huì)唱卡托巴語的歌曲，符合上下文邏輯一致的原則。
50.E。從該段的首句來看，本段主要討論語言消亡給我們帶來的后果，從剩余的兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)D和E比較來看，E選項(xiàng)(對(duì)我們剩下的人而言，當(dāng)語言消亡的時(shí)候，我們失去了用一種獨(dú)特方式觀察和描述這個(gè)世界的可能性)符合該段的內(nèi)容，而且E項(xiàng)中的“for the rest ofus”與段落首旬的“for the rest ofus”也保持了一致。

The Tough Grass that Sweetens Our Lives
Sugar cane was once a wild grass that grew in New Guinea and was used by local people for roofing their houses and fencing their gardens. Gradually a different variety evolved which contained sucrose (蔗糖) and was chewed on for its sweet taste. Over time, sugar cane became a highly valuable commercial plant, grown throughout the world. __________ (46)
Sugar became a vital ingredient in all kinds of things, from confectionery (糖果點(diǎn)心) to medicine,and, as the demand for sugar grew, the industry became larger and more profitable.__________(47)
Many crops withered (枯萎) and died, despite growers' attempts to save them, and there were fears that the health of the plant would continue to deteriorate.
In the 1960s, scientists working in Barbodos looked for ways to make the commercial species stronger and more able to resist disease. They experimented with breeding programmes, mixing genes from the more delicate, commercial type. __________(48) This sugar cane is not yet ready to be sold commercially, but when this happens, it is expected to be incredible profitable for the industry.
__________ (49) Brazil, which produces one quarter of the world's sugar, has coordinated an international project under Professor Paulo Arrudo of the Universidade Estaudual de Campinas in Sao Paulo. Teams of experts have worked with him to discover more about which parts of the genetic structure of the plant are important for the production of sugar and its overall health.
Despite all the research, however, we still do not fully understand how the genes in sugar cane.
__________(50) This gene is particularly exciting because it makes the plant resistant to rust, a disease which probably originated in India, but is now capable of infecting sugar cane across the world.
Scientist believes they will eventually be able to grow a plant which cannot be destroyed by rust.
A. Eventually, a commercial plant was developed which was 5 percent sweeter than before,but also much stronger and less likely to die from disease.
B. One major gene has been identified by Dr Angelique D'Hont and her team in Montpelier, France.
C. Sugar cane is now much more vigorous and the supply of sugar is therefore more guaranteed.
D. Since the 1960s, scientists have been analyzing the mysteries of the sugar cane's genetic code.
E. The majority of the world's sugar now comes from this particular commercial species.
F. Unfortunately, however, the plant started to become weaker and more prone to disease.
答案與解析
46.E�？崭袂耙痪涓收岢闪艘环N極具價(jià)值的商業(yè)作物，在全世界種植�？瞻滋帒�(yīng)繼續(xù)談?wù)撈鋬r(jià)值，故E選項(xiàng)(現(xiàn)在世界上大部分糖都是產(chǎn)自這個(gè)特殊的商業(yè)作物)符合文意。
47.F�？崭袂疤岬綄�(duì)糖的需求增加，這個(gè)行業(yè)開始獲利，而空格后提到植物枯萎并死掉。前后具有轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所有選項(xiàng)中只有F含有轉(zhuǎn)折詞however，故F(然而不幸的是這種植物開始變?nèi)�，容易得�?是正確答案。
48.A�？崭袂疤岬搅丝茖W(xué)家進(jìn)行不同植物基因混合的實(shí)驗(yàn)來培育新品種，空格后提到現(xiàn)在這種甘蔗植物還不準(zhǔn)備用做商業(yè)用途。由此可知，空白處講的應(yīng)該是關(guān)于新的甘蔗品種，故A(最終，一種新的商業(yè)甘蔗被培養(yǎng)出來，比之前的甜度增加5%，而且比之前的作物要更強(qiáng)壯，發(fā)病的可能性更小)是正確答案。
49.D。空格后列舉了巴西的例子，指出科學(xué)家試圖發(fā)現(xiàn)更多的影響含糖量和產(chǎn)量的基因結(jié)構(gòu)，故D項(xiàng)(自20世紀(jì)60年代起，科學(xué)家一直在研究甘蔗基因代碼的秘密)是正確答案。
50.B�？崭袂疤岬窖芯空邆�?nèi)匀粺o法完全了解甘蔗的基因，空格后提到這個(gè)基因尤其令人興奮，其中的this gene應(yīng)該指代空白處提到的某個(gè)基因，故8選項(xiàng)(一個(gè)主要的基因已經(jīng)由Angellique D’Hont博士及其團(tuán)隊(duì)鑒別出來了)符合文意。
