A
If you wanted to make a Disney-style animation of，say，Reggie，a spirited rabbit，planning to save his forest，you’d have a lead animator(动画师) draw the extremes of the action：Reggie looking intensely focused，and then proudly announcing，“There’s a new hero in the forest！” Then you’d bring in an in-betweener—that is，the animator who draws all the comprehensive frames that bridge the major actions.
Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读
语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一位迪士尼动画师的一生。作为动画师，他为众多迪士尼动画片作画，参与制作多部电影。
In-betweeners don’t get the glory，but without them cartoons would hop from one emotional peak to another，missing connective grace.Burny Mattinson(1935－2023) started his career at the Walt Disney Company in the mail room，and，even though he had no formal training in animation，he was given a swing at in-betweening just six months later.
His first big assignment was to in-between the wagging of a dog’s tail.Disney animation was famous for its silky elegance，owing in no small part to the skill of its in-betweeners，and，thanks to Mattinson，the tail practically glided(滑动) from side to side.
Mattinson had wanted to be an animator ever since his mother had taken him to see “Pinocchio” at a theatre when he was six.In a bold move，Mattinson showed up at the Disney Studios gate with his portfolio(作品集) as soon as he finished high school.The magical part of this story is that，instead of shooing him away，the security guard liked his drawings and called the head of personnel to take a look.
Thus，Mattinson became a messenger at Disney，beginning a career that would eventually make him the employee with the longest service at the company.He had joined the company at a golden moment.Listing the films that he worked on is a little like listing the entire output of the Walt Disney Company over the past six decades：Sleeping Beauty，The Lion King，and on and on.
Mattinson was，perhaps，one of the last of an almost extinct genotype—the happy company man，the lifer.He never had an employer besides Disney.When asked what Mattinson enjoyed doing outside of his life at Disney，his son said，“He just loved his work.”
1.What role do in-betweeners play in animation production
A.Design the storyline.
B.Draw the background.
C.Invent extreme actions.
D.Generate smooth motion.
√
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Then you’d bring in an in-betweener—that is，the animator who draws all the comprehensive frames that bridge the major actions.”及第二段中“In-betweeners don’t get the glory，but without them cartoons would hop from one emotional peak to another，missing connective grace.”可知，动画师的职责是使动画片动作流畅。故选D项。

2.Which of the following can best describe Mattinson’s path to Disney
A.Unconventional. B.Typical.
C.Illegal. D.Accidental.
推理判断题。根据第四段中“In a bold move...The magical part of this story is that，instead of shooing him away，the security guard liked his drawings and called the head of personnel to take a look.”和第五段可知，他等在迪士尼公司门口期待被领导发现他的才能，结果保安很喜欢他的画，竟然帮他打电话请来了人事主管，被录用为通信员，之后才为动画片作画。由此推知，他的求职道路异于常人。故选A项。
解析
√
3.What makes Mattinson exceptional in Disney’s history
A.His lifelong dedication to Disney.
B.His detailed work as an in-betweener.
C.His passion for animation beyond work.
D.His pioneering role in Disney animation.
√
细节理解题。根据第五段“...beginning a career that would eventually make him the employee with the longest service at the company...Listing the films that he worked on is a little like listing the entire output of the Walt Disney Company over the past six decades...”可知，他一生都在为迪士尼公司服务，漫长的职业生涯让马丁森在迪士尼历史上脱颖而出。故选A项。
解析
4.What is the best title of the passage
A.A Lifer in the Disney
B.In-betweeners’ Role in Animation
C.A Bold Move to Disney
D.A Glorious Career
√
标题归纳题。通读全文，结合尾段“Mattinson was...the lifer.He never had an employer besides Disney.When asked what Mattinson enjoyed doing outside of his life at Disney，his son said，‘He just loved his work.’”可知，本文主要讲述了一位为迪士尼动画奉献一生的动画师。故选A项。

B(此篇精读)
Thomas Andrews was born in Belfast in 1813，son of a merchant.He was described as “a modest，silent boy with a great capacity for general knowledge”.He had published the first of his many scientific papers in the Philosophical Magazine entitled “On the action of a flame urged by the blowpipe(吹管) on other flames” at age 14.Shortly after this，his second publication “On the detection of Baryta or Strontia when in union with Lime(石灰)” appeared in the same journal.
语篇解读　本文是一篇人物传记。文章主要介绍的是Thomas Andrews的个人生平和取得的成就。
He started his formal study of chemistry in 1828 at the University of Glasgow under Thomas Thomson and continued it later in Paris.There he worked in the laboratories of J.B.Dumas and L.J.Thenard，where he learned chemical analysis from these most distinguished(杰出的) French analytical chemists①.Returning to Dublin，he took a B.A.degree at Trinity College Dublin before completing his medical studies in Edinburgh.At 23 he became a physician in Belfast，as well as professor of chemistry at the Belfast Academical Institute.His medical commitments in the next ten years meant he had little time for experimentation but he still managed to publish a number of scientific papers.
When the Queen’s College opened in 1845，he became its first professor of chemistry，as well as its Vice-President②.As an outstanding experimentalist，he was the first to show that ozone(臭氧) is another form of oxygen.Using narrow-bore，thick glass capillary tubes(毛细管) to contain gases under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure，he was able to show that Boyle’s Law did not apply in these extreme conditions.He established the crucial concept of critical(临界的) temperature and critical pressure.His discoveries led to the liquefaction(液化) of all gases，some of which had previously been thought not to be able to exist as liquids.Internationally recognized，he was elected to many scientific academies，and in 1867，became president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science.
5.What can be known about teenage Thomas Andrews
A.He was a faithful reader of Philosophical Magazine.
B.He was nationally famous.
C.He had strong interest in science.
D.He was excellent in every subject.
推理判断题。根据首段中的“He had published the first of his many scientific papers...in the same journal.”可知，Thomas Andrews在14岁时就发表了他的第一篇科学论文，并且很快就发表了第二篇，由此可推断，青少年时期的Thomas Andrews对科学很感兴趣。故选C项。
解析
√
6.Why did Andrews go to Paris
A.To complete one of his papers.
B.To learn from French scientists.
C.To earn a B.A.degree in chemistry.
D.To further his medical studies.
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“...continued it later in Paris...where he learned chemical analysis from these most distinguished(杰出的) French analytical chemists.”可知，Thomas Andrews去巴黎是为了向法国的科学家学习。故选B项。
解析
√
7.Why is Boyle’s Law mentioned in the last paragraph
A.To analyse a phenomenon.
B.To demonstrate an old theory.
C.To introduce Andrews’ discovery.
D.To illustrate a chemistry experiment.
推理判断题。根据尾段中的“Using narrow-bore，thick glass capillary tubes(毛细管)...He established the crucial concept of critical(临界的) temperature and critical pressure.”可知，Thomas Andrews利用实验证明波义耳定律不适用于这些极端条件，并提出了临界温度和临界压力。所以此处提到波义耳定律是为了引出Andrews的新发现。故选C项。
解析
√
8.Which is the right order of the following events
a.Thomas Andrews became a physician in Belfast.
b.Thomas Andrews published his first paper in a magazine.
c.Thomas Andrews studied chemistry at the University of Glasgow.
d.Thomas Andrews was appointed Vice-President of the Queen’s College.
A.d－a－b－c B.b－a－d－c
C.d－b－a－c D.b－c－a－d
√
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Thomas Andrews was born in Belfast in 1813...”以及“He had published the first of his many scientific papers....at age 14.”可知，他的第一篇科学论文发表于1827年；根据第二段中“He started his formal study of chemistry in 1828 at the University of Glasgow...”可知，他在1828年在格拉斯哥大学开始学习化学；根据第二段中“At 23 he became a physician in Belfast...”可知，他在1836年成为贝尔法斯特的一名医生；根据尾段中“When the Queen’s College opened in 1845，he became...its Vice-President.”可知，他在1845年成为女王学院的副主席。所以，正确的顺序应为b－c－a－d。故选D项。

A
If you wanted to make a Disney-style animation of，say，Reggie，a spirited rabbit，planning to save his forest，you’d have a lead animator(动画师) draw the extremes of the action：Reggie looking intensely focused，and then proudly announcing，“There’s a new hero in the forest！” Then you’d bring in an in-betweener—that is，the animator who draws all the comprehensive frames that bridge the major actions.
In-betweeners don’t get the glory，but without them cartoons would hop from one emotional peak to another，missing connective grace.Burny Mattinson(1935－2023) started his career at the Walt Disney Company in the mail room，and，even though he had no formal training in animation，he was given a swing at in-betweening just six months later.
His first big assignment was to in-between the wagging of a dog’s tail.Disney animation was famous for its silky elegance，owing in no small part to the skill of its in-betweeners，and，thanks to Mattinson，the tail practically glided(滑动) from side to side.
Mattinson had wanted to be an animator ever since his mother had taken him to see “Pinocchio” at a theatre when he was six.In a bold move，Mattinson showed up at the Disney Studios gate with his portfolio(作品集) as soon as he finished high school.The magical part of this story is that，instead of shooing him away，the security guard liked his drawings and called the head of personnel to take a look.
Thus，Mattinson became a messenger at Disney，beginning a career that would eventually make him the employee with the longest service at the company.He had joined the company at a golden moment.Listing the films that he worked on is a little like listing the entire output of the Walt Disney Company over the past six decades：Sleeping Beauty，The Lion King，and on and on.
Mattinson was，perhaps，one of the last of an almost extinct genotype—the happy company man，the lifer.He never had an employer besides Disney.When asked what Mattinson enjoyed doing outside of his life at Disney，his son said，“He just loved his work.”

B(此篇精读)
Thomas Andrews was born in Belfast in 1813，son of a merchant.He was described as “a modest，silent boy with a great capacity for general knowledge”．He had published the first of his many scientific papers in the Philosophical Magazine entitled “On the action of a flame urged by the blowpipe(吹管) on other flames” at age 14.Shortly after this，his second publication “On the detection of Baryta or Strontia when in union with Lime(石灰)” appeared in the same journal.
He started his formal study of chemistry in 1828 at the University of Glasgow under Thomas Thomson and continued it later in Paris.There he worked in the laboratories of J．B.Dumas and L．J.Thenard，where he learned chemical analysis from these most distinguished(杰出的) French analytical chemists①.Returning to Dublin，he took a B．A.degree at Trinity College Dublin before completing his medical studies in Edinburgh.At 23 he became a physician in Belfast，as well as professor of chemistry at the Belfast Academical Institute.His medical commitments in the next ten years meant he had little time for experimentation but he still managed to publish a number of scientific papers.
When the Queen’s College opened in 1845，he became its first professor of chemistry，as well as its Vice-President②.As an outstanding experimentalist，he was the first to show that ozone(臭氧) is another form of oxygen.Using narrow-bore，thick glass capillary tubes(毛细管) to contain gases under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure，he was able to show that Boyle’s Law did not apply in these extreme conditions.He established the crucial concept of critical(临界的) temperature and critical pressure.His discoveries led to the liquefaction(液化) of all gases，some of which had previously been thought not to be able to exist as liquids.Internationally recognized，he was elected to many scientific academies，and in 1867，became president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science.

A．He was a faithful reader of Philosophical Magazine.
B．He was nationally famous.
C．He had strong interest in science.
D．He was excellent in every subject.
答案　C
解析　推理判断题。根据首段中的“He had published the first of his many scientific papers...in the same journal.”可知，Thomas Andrews在14岁时就发表了他的第一篇科学论文，并且很快就发表了第二篇，由此可推断，青少年时期的Thomas Andrews对科学很感兴趣。故选C项。
6．Why did Andrews go to Paris
A．To complete one of his papers.
B．To learn from French scientists.
C．To earn a B．A.degree in chemistry.
D．To further his medical studies.
答案　B

7．Why is Boyle’s Law mentioned in the last paragraph
A．To analyse a phenomenon.
B．To demonstrate an old theory.
C．To introduce Andrews’ discovery.
D．To illustrate a chemistry experiment.
答案　C
解析　推理判断题。根据尾段中的“Using narrow-bore，thick glass capillary tubes(毛细管)．..He established the crucial concept of critical(临界的) temperature and critical pressure.”可知，Thomas Andrews利用实验证明波义耳定律不适用于这些极端条件，并提出了临界温度和临界压力。所以此处提到波义耳定律是为了引出Andrews的新发现。故选C项。
8．Which is the right order of the following events
a．Thomas Andrews became a physician in Belfast.
b．Thomas Andrews published his first paper in a magazine.
c．Thomas Andrews studied chemistry at the University of Glasgow.

A．d－a－b－c B．b－a－d－c
C．d－b－a－c D．b－c－a－d
答案　D
解析　细节理解题。根据第一段中“Thomas Andrews was born in Belfast in 1813...”以及“He had published the first of his many scientific papers....at age 14.”可知，他的第一篇科学论文发表于1827年；根据第二段中“He started his formal study of chemistry in 1828 at the University of Glasgow...”可知，他在1828年在格拉斯哥大学开始学习化学；根据第二段中“At 23 he became a physician in Belfast...”可知，他在1836年成为贝尔法斯特的一名医生；根据尾段中“When the Queen’s College opened in 1845，he became...its Vice-President.”可知，他在1845年成为女王学院的副主席。所以，正确的顺序应为b－c－a－d。故选D项。
[语境猜词]
①analytical chemist n．分析化学家
②vice-president n．副总统
[句式分析]
His discoveries led to the liquefaction of all gases，some of which had previously been thought not to be able to exist as liquids.
分析：此句为复合句。some of which引导非限制性定语从句，gases为先行词，which在从句中作宾语，指代先行词gases。
翻译：他的发现导致所有气体的液化，其中一些气体以前被认为不能以液态形式存在。
