The heart of the story lies in Pi as a young man and the time he spent out at sea on a lifeboat with a tiger named Richard Parker, but getting to that point is quite an ordeal(苦難考驗). Pi loses everything and everyone close to him in the blink of an eye and he doesn’t 【2】 on making what feels like an unbreakable bond with a Bengal tiger.
The 【3】 film offers a rather marvelous message about religion as Pi discusses the experimentation with several different religions as a young boy. Even though it seems kind of silly that a boy has 【4】 so many religions at one point in his life, it portrays a/an 【5】 message in a light that doesn’t seem too preachy(說教的). But the religious aspect is really only a backdrop for being on your own 【6】 to finding who you really are. Feeling so alone for so long and having Pi talk about not being alone and not getting to say goodbye to those he cared about most is one of those things that just hits you really hard.
While witnessing Pi attempt to tame Richard Parker is really 【7】, there are so many unbelievable sights to witness in “Life of Pi”. There’s the whale, the jellyfish, the flying fish, that 【8】 storm, and that seaweed island with all of the meerkats (a kind of monkey). “Life of Pi” never really lets up on being 【9】 breathtaking and amazing from beginning to end.
“Life of Pi” is pleasantly satisfying. With a heartfelt message, beautiful visuals, and stunning camera work. “Life of Pi” is truly a sight to behold and illustrates how 【10】 3D can be to a film that isn’t just a summer hit or blockbuster.

本文是記敘文。文章介紹了《少年派奇幻漂流記》這部電影的主要情節(jié),它主要是講Pi的漂流經(jīng)歷,并且有點奇幻色彩。這部影片體現(xiàn)了3D技術(shù)對于電影拍攝的重要性。
【1】考查名詞。句意:Pi首先介紹了他的名字的由來和家人如何經(jīng)營一家動物園,但最終出于經(jīng)濟原因他的家人需要離開印度。Pi的父親決定舉家移民離開印度到加拿大,以追求更好的生活,即出于改善家庭經(jīng)濟的目的。此處需要名詞purposes作介詞for的賓語。故選I。
【2】考查動詞。句意:Pi眨眼間就失去了一切和身邊的每個人,他沒有指望與孟加拉虎建立牢不可破的聯(lián)系。此處需要填入動詞count構(gòu)成短語count on,意為“指望”。起初Pi并沒指望會和孟加拉虎相互依賴而活下去。故選G。
【3】考查名詞。句意:當Pi討論在小時候信仰的幾種不同的宗教時,這部冒險電影提供了關(guān)于宗教的相當奇妙的信息。這部電影展示的是一部“奇幻漂流記”,即冒險電影。此處定冠詞the后面需要使用名詞adventure作定語修飾film。故選B。
【4】考查動詞。句意:盡管一個男孩一生中曾經(jīng)信奉過如此多的宗教似乎很愚蠢,但它以似乎不太講道的角度描繪了一個宗教信息。此處需要選擇過去分詞adopted構(gòu)成現(xiàn)在完成時,Pi尋找信仰而且還信奉了很多宗教。故選C。
【5】考查形容詞。句意:盡管一個男孩一生中曾經(jīng)接受過如此多的宗教似乎很愚蠢,但它以似乎不太講道的角度描繪了一個宗教信息。此處的話題與宗教有關(guān),需要形容詞religious作定語修飾message。故選K。
【6】考查名詞。句意:但是,宗教信仰只是你弄清楚自己到底是誰的一個途徑。此處需要名詞route作介詞on的賓語。on your own route to在去……的路上。故選E。
【7】考查形容詞。句意:目睹Pi馴服孟加拉虎Richard Parker的嘗試確實很有趣,但《少年派奇幻漂流記》中有許多令人難以置信的景象。此處需要形容詞entertaining作表語。故選D。
【8】考查形容詞。句意:這里有鯨魚,水母,飛魚,那場災(zāi)難性的風暴以及那座有猴子的海藻島。此處需要形容詞disastrous作定語修飾storm。Pi及一行人乘坐的船在暴風雨中沉沒,因此這是災(zāi)難性的風暴。故選F。
【9】考查副詞。句意:《少年派奇幻漂流記》從始至終真正地讓觀眾在視覺上感到震撼和驚艷。下文提到了這部電影在拍攝的技術(shù)上是很成功的,此處需要副詞visually作狀語修飾breathtaking和amazing。故選H。
【10】考查形容詞。句意:《少年派奇幻漂流記》確實讓人眼前一亮,這說明了3D對于不僅僅是夏日大片還是電影來說都是很重要的。此處需要形容詞essential作表語,表明3D技術(shù)對于電影拍攝的重要性。故選A。

【題目】
Goldfish have pretty boring lives, so maybe it’s a good thing they can only concentrate for nine seconds! But according to new research, humans are becoming like goldfish. Our attention span(時長) is getting shorter and it’s all because of technology.
“We move quickly from one site to another on the web,” says Dr. Ted Selker, a computer scientist from Massachusetts, “And we are losing the ability to concentrate.” With millions of websites to choose from, the attention span of the average Internet user is just seconds. There are other digital distractions(使人分心的事) too: emails, instant messaging and quickie movies on websites.
Some people are worried about the effect on young people. “You need time to understand and think about what you read,” says Julia Wood, from London. “Young people search the net all the time and their brains become full of useless information but there is no time to make sense of it. I am trying to persuade my pupils to read more books, so that they concentrate on one subject for longer. ”
Other teachers are trying more unusual methods to improve students’ concentration. Anne Savan, from Wales, was so worried about her students that she started playing Mozart during her science lessons. She says that it had an amazing effect, “The music made them calmer, and their concentration was much better.”
But not everyone believes that there is a problem. Ray Cole, an educational psychologist says, “On the web, young people learn to make quick decisions about what is and isn’t worth reading.
