　　(A)(原創)A harrowing competition is underway in England, with billions of dollars and hundreds of lives at risk. OK, that’s not true. But competitors from around the world gathered on Thursday for the annual competition to crown the world’s biggest liar.

　　Each participant is given up to five minutes to make up the best fib in the contest, which was founded in honor of 19th-century Bridge Inn landlord Will Ritson, who was reportedly legendary for his lies.

　　Competitors gather at the Bridge Inn every year for the competition, a small pub in northwestern England.

　　Anyone can take part in the competition. Well, almost anyway; the reporters note that lawyers and politicians are banned, citing “an unfair advantage” in the proceedings.

　　A study published this past July in the journal Evolution & Human Behavior found that nearly all lies are detectable through visible facial muscle reactions in the person telling a lie. “Thus, while interpersonal deception often is highly successful, signs of hidden emotional states are communicated clearly to the informed observer, ” the study concluded.

　　A bishop of Carlisle reportedly holds what may be the greatest lie of all time in the competition, simply stating, “I have never told a lie in my life. ”

　　In 2003, Abrie Krueger of South Africa became the first non-Brit to win the competition. Ironically, Krueger was accused by some of cheating.

　　In 2006, comedian Sue Perkins became the first female to win the competition, telling a tale about people riding camels to work as a result of climate change.

　　Last year’s winning entry came from Glen Boyland, who told a lie about competing in a snail-racing competition with Prince Charles. (274W)

　　1. Why does the author tell a lie at the beginning of the passage?

　　A. Because the author likes telling lies.

　　B. Because nearly everyone has told lies.

　　C. It is written in this way in order to introduce the annual competition to crown the world’s biggest liar.

　　D. Because lies can usually be detected through visible facial muscle reactions.

　　2. What does the underlined word “fib” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

　　A. lieB. story　C. experienceD. plot

　　3. According to the passage, which groups can’t take part in the competition?

　　A. doctors and teachers

　　B. reporters and editors

　　C. students and managers

　　D. lawyers and politicians

　　4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. Each participant is given at least five minutes in the competition.

　　B. The competition is held at the Bridge Inn every year in honor of Will Ritson.

　　C. All the lies can be discovered through visible facial muscle reactions.

　　D. Glen Boyland competed in a snail-racing competition with Prince Charles.

　　5. What’s the purpose of this text?

　　A. To introduce a strange competition.

　　B. To explain how to detect the liars.

　　C. To discuss how to avoid telling lies.

　　D. To invite people to take part in the competition.

　　【語篇隨練】

　　根據閱讀理解B, 翻譯下列句子

　　Most importantly, when you go to New York, make sure to put up at one of the best hotels there.

　　Ⅰ. 1.【解析】選C。句意：在世界上很多國家, 早餐是小吃而不是一頓飯, 但是傳統的英國早餐是一頓正餐。rather than “而不是” , 符合句意。other than “不同于; 除了” ; more than “不僅僅; 超過” ; less than “不如; 少于” 。

　　2.【解析】選B。考查動詞辨析。句意：這個隊希望現在的成績能比得上去年的, 但是, 當然這要依靠于他們會遇到什么樣的天氣。confirm “確定; 證實” ; equal “等于; 比得上” ; continue “繼續” ; guarantee “保證; 擔保” 。equal符合句意。

　　3.【解析】選B。考查定語從句的關系代詞。先行詞為tradition, 在從句中作抽象的地點狀語, 所以用where, 相當于in which。

　　【知識拓展】

　　抽象地點高考熱點

　　定語從句中先行詞表示抽象的地點, 后面要用 “介詞+關系代詞” 或者where的先行詞除了tradition之外還有：point, stage, situation, case, scene等詞作先行詞引導定語從句時, 若在定語從句中作狀語, 應由where引導定語從句。例如：

　　Can you think out a situation where this word can be used?你能想出這個單詞被使用的場合嗎?

　　Her illness has developed to the point where nobody can cure her. 她的病已經發展到沒人能治的地步。

　　4.【解析】選C。考查非謂語動詞和謂語動詞用法辨析。這是一個 “祈使句+and+陳述句的將來時” 結構。

　　【變式備選】

　　　by beautiful green mountains and situated at the foot of Huangshan Mountain makes Tai Ping Lake a famous tourist attraction.

　　A. Surrounded

　　B. Being surrounded

　　C. Having been surrounded

　　D. Surrounding

　　【解析】選B。考查非謂語動詞的用法。作主語, 要用動名詞形式, 由語境可知, 這里指的是Tai Ping Lake被青山環繞, 所以用being done結構。

　　5.【解析】選B。考查非謂語動詞的用法。句意：在建設中的新橋是原來老橋的兩倍長, 預計在下個月完成。bridge與measure是主動關系, 用現在分詞作bridge的定語。

　　6.【解析】選A。考查動詞短語辨析。答語的意思：哦, 抱歉。辦公室里太吵了以至于我都靜不下心來寫東西。settle down意為 “平靜下來; 專心于” , 其余選項均不符合句意。

　　7.【解析】選A。within “在……里; 在……之內” , 后常接表示某個特定范圍的名詞。within a month “在一個月內” 。

　　8.【解析】選D。考查強調句型及名詞性從句的連接詞。句意：——那個病人今天好多了。——你知道是什么使他成為今天這個樣子的嗎?第一空是強調句型, what是被強調的部分, 作主語; 第二空是賓語從句, what作表語。

　　9.【解析】選D。考查名詞辨析。答語句意為：(我們在一塊工作了)半年, 他沒給我們留下多少印象。leave an impression on sb. 意為：給某人留下印象。

　　10.【解析】選D。考查同位語從句。句意：消息傳來卡梅倫首相譴責前幾天在英國爆發的最嚴重的那次騷亂。在Word came that. . . 這個句型中, word意思是 “消息” , 為不可數名詞, 后面的that從句為word的同位語從句。

　　11.【解析】選A。考查動詞辨析。句意：當聽說家人沒有帶她去意大利的時候, 她勉強擠出一絲微笑。manage表示勉強做某事, manage a smile強作歡笑。wear穿, 戴; perform表演, 執行; control控制。

　　12.【解析】選D。考查短語辨析。句意：在古代, 人們很少出遠門, 大部分農民最遠到過當地的市場。由前面的 “travelled long distances” 可以看出, 這里說的是出門的距離, 所以要用as far as, 意思是 “遠到” 。

　　13.【解析】選B。句意：雖然他的同學都在他的前面, 但他正努力學習以便能趕上他們。lose sight of看不見; catch up with趕上; catch hold of抓住; catch sight of看見。

　　14.【解析】選D。考查冠詞的用法。have a gift for對……有天賦; second to none為固定短語, 意為 “不比任何人差, 首屈一指” 。

　　15.【解析】選A。考查由distance構成的短語。句意：老師應該跟學生保持一定的距離, 但又不要距離太遠。keep(sb. )at a distance與(某人)保持一定的距離, in the distance在遠處, 此處表示距離遠, 故應選at和in。Ⅱ.
