　　(2024·長春模擬)

　　根據短文內容, 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

　　Have you heard about leap year? Leap year is a year that has 366 days instead of the usual 365. It normally occurs every four years, always on an even-numbered year. The extra day is added to our shortest month. That is the second month of the year, which in non-leap years has 28 days, two fewer than any other month. 　1　

　　We also call leap year the bissextile year. 　2　In our calendar system there is a need for a leap year because the solar year(the time it takes the earth to go around the sun once)is actually slightly more than 365 days long. That extra day—Feb. 29 every four years—helps correct the difference between our calendar and the solar calendar.

　　It is said that leap year was first made part of the calendar by the ancient Roman leader Julius Caesar. His astronomers had calculated the length of the solar year to be 365 days and six hours. So Caesar declared that an extra day be added to the calendar. 　3　However, Caesar’s adjustment was not completely accurate because his astronomers’ year exceeded the true solar year by eleven minutes and fourteen seconds. By 1582, a difference of ten days had developed between the calendar year and the true solar year. To correct this error, Pope GregoryⅩⅢ ruled that every fourth year would continue to be a leap year except for century years that could not be divided evenly by 400. By this system, century years such as 100, 1800, and 1900 were not leap years, but the year 2000 was a leap year. 　4　

　　People born on Feb. 29 celebrate their growing up a little differently from the rest of us.

　　　5　But if they go strictly by the calendar, they have only one-fourth as many birthday celebrations as most people.

　　A. They acknowledge that they get older each year.

　　B. When you see Feb. 29 on a calendar, you know that year is a leap year.

　　C. This is its formal, or scientific title.

　　D. This may seem complicated, but it works.

　　E. In a leap year, the extra day is added to the second month, giving it 29 instead of the usual 28 days.

　　F. The leap year was introduced in the Julian calendar in 46 BC.

　　G. This is done every four years.

　　2.【解析】選A?？疾榉侵^語動詞。句意: 憑借自己的優秀作品, 莫言成功地獲得了諾貝爾文學獎。draw upon意為“憑借; 利用; 依賴”, 主語Mo Yan與其之間是主動關系, 故用動詞-ing形式作狀語。

　　where引導定語從句所修飾的先行詞可以是具體的地點, 也可以是抽象名詞, 如activity, case, point, situation, position, job等。例如:

　　You have reached a point where medicine can’t help.

　　你已到了藥物無法治療的地步。

　　He got into a situation where it was hard to decide what was right or wrong.

　　他陷入一種難以分辨是非的局面。
