A.so that
B.because
C.since
D.while

4. A 【点拨】根据语境可知,他努力学习是为了轻松通过考试,此处应用so that引导目的状语从句。故选A。

【分析】首先明确句子的逻辑关系：前半句“他努力学习”是具体行为，后半句“他能轻松通过考试”是该行为的目的，需选择引导目的状语从句的连词。接着辨析各选项：A项so that意为“以便，为了”，用于引导目的状语从句；B项because意为“因为”，引导原因状语从句；C项since意为“既然，自从”，引导原因或时间状语从句；D项while意为“当……时，然而”，引导时间或让步状语从句。根据目的关系确定答案。
【解析】根据句子逻辑，“努力学习”的目的是“轻松通过考试”，需用表目的的连词。A选项so that引导目的状语从句，符合语境；B选项because表原因，C选项since表原因或时间，D选项while表时间或让步，均不符合。故选A。
【答案】A
【知识点】目的状语从句；连词辨析

六、阅读理解。
We can see circles, squares and triangles everywhere in our daily life. Have you thought about their meanings in films? Much like colours, different shapes can show different features of characters in the scenes.
Circles represent things that are soft and natural. The round shape reminds us of things that appear in nature, like the sun, raindrops. We can also connect circles with beautiful eyes, babies' round faces... All these things make us feel happy and warm. This is why so many cartoon characters' bodies—heroes, good people—are round in shape, because circles represent goodness, happiness and friendliness.
Squares show things that are unnatural or man-made, or things that are boring or old-fashioned. In the cartoon film Up, Carl has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals. These shapes show the characters' personalities. Carl is stubborn(固执的) and lonely, while Russell is lovely and full of energy.
The angriest shape is the triangle. Every kid who draws a monster with sharp teeth draws a row of triangles, don't they? That's because the shape represents fear, distrust and doubt in some way. Look at the bad guys in cartoons—they are all drawn with plenty of points and triangles, like Shengongbao in Ne Zha. And triangles are stable(稳固的) and don't easily fall down. In films, this feature makes bad people difficult to deal with.
Not only in cartoons, but also in other kinds of films, different shapes are used for the same purpose. So, try to find the hidden shapes and you will know what the characters are like.

()1. How does the writer explain the relationship between squares and characters' personalities?
A. By telling a story.
B. By listing numbers.
C. By raising a question.
D. By giving an example.
()2. 创新考法—图片理解 Which picture does the underlined word "triangle" refer to?

3. A 【点拨】第一段提出主题“不同的形状可以在不同场景中显示人物的不同性格”,第二、三、四段分别介绍圆形、方形和三角形与人物性格的联系,第五段总结全文。故选A。

【分析】

2. 第2题：第四段明确提到triangle是画怪物时使用的形状，结合词义可知triangle指三角形，对应插图中的三角形图片。
3. 第3题：梳理文章段落逻辑，第一段总起提出“不同形状可体现人物性格”的主题，第二、三、四段分别介绍圆形、方形、三角形的意义，第五段总结全文，据此判断篇章结构。
【解析】
1. 第1题：第三段作者举《飞屋环游记》中Carl（方形脸、方形眼镜）和Russell（圆脸、圆形奖牌）的例子，解释方形与人物性格的关系，属于举例子的说明方式，故选D。
