Ⅰ. 阅读理解
(2019·河南开封模拟)Have you ever noticed how Americans fill up their entire glass with ice and then pour their beverage(饮品) in, but Europeans take their drinks at room temperature? In the U.S. , we’ve created fridges that give you cold ice at the press of a button, but in Britain they typically serve their tap water warm.
This tradition—if that’s what you want to call it—dates back to the 19th century. During that time, it was already commonplace for most American homes to have an ice box. Ice would be harvested in northern America or Canada and shipped across the Atlantic and sold at a high price in British department stores. Can you imagine heading to Macy’s to treat yourself to a block of ice?
Putting ice in your drink started to become somewhat of a fashion(时尚)trend for the wealthy in Britain. Some would put a few cubes in their champagne and sip on their chilled drinks at highclass parties. But, like with any fashion trend, it eventually faded, mainly because the ice was just too expensive. And even once ice boxes began appearing in homes in Britain as well, Brits never took a liking to ice in their drinks.
So, next time you travel overseas, don’t feel offended(冒犯) when your server gives you an eye roll when you ask for ice water.

Ⅰ. 阅读理解
[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。文章通过介绍欧洲和美国地区不同的冰箱和冰块发展情况,解释了为什么现在美国人普遍喜欢饮用冰镇饮料,而欧洲人通常饮用常温饮料。
1.B [推理判断题。根据文章第二句“In the U.S. , we’ve created fridges that give you cold ice at the press of a button, but in Britain they typically serve their tap water warm. ” 在美国,我们已经发明了可以一键制冰的冰箱,但在英国,他们通常提供温暖的自来水。这里在说美国是用了we,说英国是用了they,可推测作者应该是个美国人。]
2.C [推理判断题。根据文章第二、三段大意,19世纪时期,大部分美国家庭已经拥有了早期的冰箱,北美地区的制冰业发展已相当成熟,并且高价在英国售卖。那时候的英国富人流行在饮料里加冰,但这种做法最终过时了,主要是由于冰太贵。即便后来英国家庭也都开始拥有了冰箱,英国人也没有再喜欢往饮料里加冰块。可知,欧洲人之所以喝常温饮料不是因为他们没有冰箱,不是因为他们有温热的自来水,也不是因为他们买不起冰,而是由于19世纪的经历,后来他们习惯了不加冰的饮料,即便有冰箱,也没再喜欢往饮料里加冰块。]
3.A [推理判断题。根据第二段“Ice would be harvested in northern America or Canada and shipped across the Atlantic and sold at a high price in British department stores. ”以及第三段“Putting ice in your drink started to become somewhat of a fashion(时尚)trend for the wealthy in Britain. Some would put a few cubes in their champagne and sip on their chilled drinks at highclass parties. But, like with any fashion trend, it eventually faded,”可知,早期英国商店里有冰卖,后来英国家庭也拥有了冰箱,因此排除B项;根据第三段可知英国有钱人往饮料里加冰的流行趋势后来也过时了,因此排除C项;文中仅提到英国有钱人在19世纪也像美国人一样在饮料里加冰,并没有说欧洲人总学着美国人的做法,因此排除D项;根据第二、三段大意可知,英国人比美国人晚拥有冰箱。]
4.A [主旨大意题。文章开头“Have you ever noticed how Americans fill up their entire glass with ice and then pour their beverage(饮品) in, but Europeans take their drinks at room temperature? 你有没有注意到美国人在整个玻璃杯里装满冰块,然后倒入饮料,但欧洲人喝常温饮料?”,该句点出主题,指出美国人喜欢冰镇饮料,而欧洲人不喜欢,接下来的二三段里,讲述了这一不同“传统”的由来。]
Ⅱ. 语法填空
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了结的发展历史和今天结的作用。
1.artists [考查名词。根据该句中的“make complex knots that you can take back with you as souvenirs”可知,“Skilled knot__1__”作主语,其中Skilled knot对空处进行修饰,此处缺名词,表示“人”,故可以确定应用名词artist;该词为可数名词,且其前无限定语修饰,故此处应用复数。]
2.initially [考查副词。根据该句中的动词“made”可知,空处修饰该动词,故用副词形式。]
3.before [考查连词。在开始用文字书写之前,人们起初可能用它们去记录和传递信息。before意为“在……之前”,符合语境。]
4.to tie [考查动词不定式。be used to do sth. 为固定搭配,意为“被用来做某事”。]
5.reference [考查名词。根据空前的不定冠词“a”和空后的介词“to”并结合语境可知,此处表示“一本关于结的参考书”,故用refer的名词形式。]
6.were used [考查被动语态和时态。根据该句中的时间状语“in the Tang Dynasty”可知,此处陈述的事情发生在唐朝,故用一般过去时;根据语境可知,结在唐朝被用作艺术装饰并被用来表达思想情感,主语they和动词use之间是被动关系,故填were used。]
7.covering [考查现在分词。分析该句结构可知,a large one和动词cover是逻辑上的主谓关系,故用现在分词作后置定语。]
8.traditional [考查形容词。根据空后的“art form”可知,空处修饰该名词短语,表示“传统的艺术形式”,故用形容词形式。]
9.as [考查介词。根据语境可知,该处表示作为他们文化的一部分,这种传统的艺术形式被代代相传。as表示“作为”,符合语境。]
10.or [考查连词。
由空前的“given as gifts”和空后的“passed down through families”可知,空处为选择关系,故填or。
