问题 单项选择题

Beyond question, Clinton was supposed to close up, stay out of sight, and avoid second- guessing his wife’s boss. After his ego blustered into oncoming traffic during Hillary’s heated primary race (1) Obama, the nation suffered from yet another turn of Clinton fatigue.

(2) this week Bill Clinton showed an instinct for robust, inclusive leadership that the (3) White House occupant could make good use of right for the time being. With President Obama struggling to (4) the political damage from the Gulf oil spill, Clinton not only can’t help himself—he’s worth being listened.

Clinton considers this is an unfair (9) but offers a different—and more pointed— lesson to his young successor. "I think we ought to (10) in the same boat for a while... Let’s just (11) the problem, and then we can hold everybody responsible and emote or not emote, " Clinton conversed (12) CNN Anchor Wolf Blitzer.

Obama’s first (13) after the oil spill was to "feel the blame" rather than "feel the pain, " which are pretty sarcastic words as it were. No one intends to let British Petroleum (BP) management (14) the hook—for dangerously cutting corners, and for a (15) safety record. However, the President’s (16) focus on scolding BP consumed (17) White House energy while the oil gushed.

阅读理解与欣赏

阅读文段,回答问题。

  (甲)设计者和匠师们因地制宜,自出新裁,修建成功的园林当然各各不同,可是苏州各个园林在不同之中有个共同点,似乎设计者和匠师们一致追求的是:务必使游览者无论站在哪个点上,眼前总是一幅完美的图画。为了达到这个目的,他们追求亭台轩榭的(   ),讲究假山池沼的(   ),讲究花草树木的(   ),讲究近景远景的(   )。总之,一切都要为构成完美的图画而存在,皆不容许有欠美伤美的败笔。他们唯愿游览者得到“如在画图中”的实感,而他们的成绩实现了他们的愿望,游览者来到园里,没有一个不心里想着口头说着“如在画图中”的。

  (乙)苏州园林里都有假山和池沼。假山的堆叠,可以说是一项艺术而不仅是技术。或者是重峦叠嶂,或者是几座小山配合着竹子花木,全在乎设计者和匠师们生平多阅历,胸中有丘壑,才能使游览者攀登的时候忘却苏州城市,只觉得身在山间。至于池沼,大多引用活水。有些园林池沼宽畅,就把池沼作为全园的中心,其他景物配合着布置。水面假如成河道模样,往往安排桥梁。假如安排两座以上的桥梁,那就一座一个样,决不雷同。池沼或河道的边沿很少砌齐整的石岸,总是高低屈曲任其自然。还在那儿布置几块玲珑的石头,或者种些花草:这也是为了取得从各个角度看都成一幅画的效果。池沼里养着金鱼和各色鲤鱼,夏秋季节荷花或睡莲开放。游览者看“鱼戏莲叶间”,又是入画的一景。

1.(甲)中括号内依次填写的词语应是(   )、(   )、(   )、(   )。

2.说明事物应抓住事物的特征,(甲)中说明苏州园林共同特征的句子是_________________________________________________________________________。句中_________二字,贯穿全篇,全文紧扣这两个字分项介绍了苏州园林的特征。(乙)中的__________________________________________________一句与最后一句话照应了这一特征。

3.(乙)可以分为两层,先说假山的堆叠。文中____________________________________一句从游览者的感受的角度突出了假山堆叠的艺术效果。次说池沼的特点,并用“这也是为了取得从各个角度看都成一幅画的效果”一句评述池沼与其他景致配合的艺术效果,句中的“这”指代的内容的是_________________________________________________________。

4.(乙)所说明的中心内容是_______________________________________________。

5.“假山的堆叠,可以说是一项艺术而不仅是技术。”这句话的意思应该是:____________________________________________。

6.选文所运用的说明方法依次是:____________、___________。

7.说明事物应注意合理的安排说明的顺序。这两个文段采取的是________顺序。从《苏州园林》全文的结构看,这两个文段之间的关系是________关系。

8.从语言的角度分析,回答下面的问题。

①(甲)中对突出苏州园林的特征有着重要作用的词语是____________________,这些词语表达得语气是___________________________________________________。

②(乙)中,能体现说明文语言的严密性的词语有_________、_________等,因为这些词语用得极有分寸,既不夸大,又不缩小。

③“游览者看'鱼戏莲叶间',又是入画的一景”一句中的“又”用得好,好在哪里?
