8、 【難句分析】It is currently working an a project whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the Moon，exploring for resources such as minerals and water ice to be used to provide for a human outpost(前哨站)． 分析：該句為主從復(fù)合句。句中whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the M

9、oon，exploring for resources such as minerals and water ice to be used to provide for a human outpost(前哨站)為whose引導(dǎo)的定語從句，修飾先行詞a project；該定語從句中含有that引導(dǎo)的表語從句。 譯文：當(dāng)前(俄羅斯)正啟動(dòng)一項(xiàng)工程，其思路是登陸器將探索月球的南極，尋找礦物質(zhì)和水冰等資源以供人類前哨站使用。 1．C　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段第三句“Named Chang'e 4, the mission is scheduled to touch down in the Aitk

10、en Basin near the end of 2018”可知，嫦娥四號(hào)將在2018年底降落在月球Aitken Basin地區(qū)。據(jù)此可知，中國的下一步空間計(jì)劃是嫦娥四號(hào)登月，故C項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)第三段第二句“It is currently working on a project whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the Moon”可知，探索月球南極是俄羅斯的計(jì)劃，而不是中國的計(jì)劃，故D項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；A、B項(xiàng)文中沒有提及。 2．B　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段第三句“But when the Russians fa

11、iled to deliver the promised lander in 2013, India decided to go it alone”可知，由于俄羅斯沒能給印度提供著陸器，故印度決定自己實(shí)施登月計(jì)劃，故B項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)第四段第二句“Chandrayaan-2 was meant to cooperate with Russia”可知，印度Chandrayaan-2任務(wù)計(jì)劃和俄羅斯合作完成，故A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；根據(jù)第四段第三句可知，俄羅斯沒能給印度提供著陸器，而不是拒絕合作，故C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；D項(xiàng)文中沒有提及。 3．A　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段第二句“It is currently workin

12、g on a project whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the Moon，exploring for resources such as minerals and water ice to be used to provide for a human outpost(前哨站)”可知，當(dāng)前俄羅斯正啟動(dòng)一項(xiàng)工程，其思路是登陸器將探索月球的南極，尋找礦物質(zhì)和水冰等資源以供人類前哨站使用。故A項(xiàng)正確。 二、單項(xiàng)選擇。 1.It is urgent that immediate measures _

49、iled agenda and pass out supporting documents several days before a meeting. 2 Meetings that run long in Germany are often taken to mean that the parties are not communicating efficiently. 3 Where：China，Malaysia，Singapore Debating a topic can go against the traditional Chinese concept of“s

50、aving face”，which means avoiding any mistakes or actions that could bring embarrassment.Laughing at even an obviously amusing answer or pointing out a potential mistake can spoil the entire meeting. Enjoy the interruptions Where：Italy，F(xiàn)rance，Spain When Pascal Soboll meets with clients in Italy or

55、成功地召開會(huì)議。 1．A　[空處前兩句介紹了常見的會(huì)議情況：時(shí)間安排松散，開會(huì)不準(zhǔn)時(shí)，總是重復(fù)；結(jié)合空后的“Japanese are more likely to create a detailed agenda and pass out supporting documents several days before a meeting.”可知，日本人注意會(huì)議的細(xì)節(jié)，并在數(shù)天前就做好準(zhǔn)備。據(jù)此可以判斷，空處承上啟下，說明并非所有的國家在開會(huì)時(shí)都會(huì)出現(xiàn)上述的情況：時(shí)間安排松散，開會(huì)不準(zhǔn)時(shí)，總是重復(fù)。故A項(xiàng)正確。] 2．B　[根據(jù)該部分中的“where：Germany，Austria，Jap

56、an”可知，該部分主要介紹德國、奧地利和日本的開會(huì)習(xí)慣；空前一句已經(jīng)介紹了日本的情況，結(jié)合空后一句“Meetings that run long in Germany are often... efficiently.”可知，空處及下一句介紹德國和奧地利的開會(huì)習(xí)慣，故B項(xiàng)正確。] 3．C　[根據(jù)空處位置可知，空處為該部分標(biāo)題，是該部分的主旨；通讀該部分可知，該部分第一句介紹了在中國開會(huì)應(yīng)當(dāng)認(rèn)真討論，以防發(fā)生尷尬，第二句介紹在開會(huì)時(shí)不要嘲笑有趣的答案或指出潛在的錯(cuò)誤；據(jù)此可知，該部分主要介紹要嚴(yán)肅認(rèn)真地討論會(huì)議議題，就事論事，不需要在開會(huì)前有什么“頭腦風(fēng)暴”，故C項(xiàng)正確。] 4．G　[根據(jù)上文中的“When Pascal Soboll...”和“Rather than... attend based on their own timetable.”以及空后一句可知，意大利人、法國人和西班牙人開會(huì)很隨意，G項(xiàng)中的“Soboll”與該處相對(duì)應(yīng)，故G項(xiàng)正確。] 5．E　[根據(jù)該部分標(biāo)題“Please，no small talk”和空前的“there are long pauses in the conversation”可知，選E項(xiàng)，E項(xiàng)中的“them”與“l(fā)ong pauses”對(duì)應(yīng)。] 13
