() 5. The number of elephants in this area dropping quickly. Luckily, a number of people helping to protect them now.

A.is; is
B.are; are
C.is; are
D.are; is

5. C

【分析】首先需明确两个易混短语的主谓一致规则："the number of + 可数名词复数"表示"……的数量"，作主语时谓语动词用单数；"a number of + 可数名词复数"表示"许多、大量"，作主语时谓语动词用复数。再结合题目分析：第一空主语是"the number of elephants"（大象的数量），谓语用单数；第二空主语是"a number of people"（许多人），谓语用复数，据此可确定答案。
【解析】根据主谓一致规则，"the number of + 复数名词"作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式，故第一空填is；"a number of + 复数名词"作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式，故第二空填are，因此选C选项。
【答案】C
【知识点】主谓一致；固定短语用法
【点评】本题考查初中英语基础的主谓一致考点，聚焦两个易混短语的用法区分，只要牢记规则即可快速解题。

主题:人与社会——艺术 学科素养:思维品质 词数:约310 建议用时:7分钟
Put on your 3D glasses and the dinosaur jumps off the screen. There are butterflies in the air around you. How does this happen?
At a 3D movie, it seems that a red ball is jumping right at you. But the ball isn’t truly leaving the screen. What’s happening is that your brain and eyes work together to work out the ball’s size, color, shape, and movement. It looks real, but it’s an illusion! Our eyes are like video cameras. They notice every detail of the red ball and how it moves. At the same time, our brain (大脑) guesses what will happen next. That’s why we think the red ball is flying straight at us!
But how do 3D movies make objects seem like they’re floating (飘浮) in the air? They trick our brains! Here’s how it works: the movie is filmed using two cameras with lenses (镜头) placed close to each other, just like our eyes. When the movie plays, these two pictures are shown on the screen at the same time. Each picture is a bit different from the other because each camera catches its own view. The two pictures overlap (重叠), and that’s why they look unclear without 3D glasses.
This is where the special glasses come in. A 3D movie uses two kinds of light: horizontal (side-to-side) light and vertical (up-and-down) light. The glasses help your left eye see the picture using horizontal light and your right eye see the picture using vertical light. Then, your brain mixes the two pictures into one. That’s when the magic of 3D happens!
With 3D glasses, the experience can be fun and exciting. Just remember that it’s all a clever trick to make you feel like you’re right there in the movie!

1.C 2.A 3.D 4.B 5.D
【主旨大意】本文详细阐述了3D电影的效果，以及3D电影制作和呈现的原理。
1. C【点拨】写作方法题。根据“Put on your 3D glasses...in the air around you.”可知，作者通过列举一个在观看3D电影时发生的事实情景来引出下文。故选C。
2. A【点拨】词义猜测题。根据“It looks real, but...”可知，画线单词与“real”意思相反，表示“不真实的东西”。
3. D【点拨】信息组合题。根据第三段中的“Here's how it works... just like our eyes.”可知，首先是④电影使用两个相邻的摄像头拍摄；根据“When the movie plays...at the same time.”可知，下一步是②屏幕上播放两幅画面；根据“The two pictures... without 3D glasses.”可知，接下来是③画面重叠因此看起来模糊；根据“A 3D movie uses two...vertical (up-and-down) light.”可知，然后是⑤3D眼镜分别处理水平光线和垂直光线；根据“Then, your brain mixes the two pictures into one.”可知，最后是①大脑将两幅画面混合为一幅，这产生了3D魔法。故选D。
4. B【点拨】细节理解题。根据“But how do 3D movies make objects...just like our eyes.”可知，电影用两个镜头紧邻的摄像机拍摄是为了模拟人眼视角。故选B。
5. D【点拨】推理判断题。根据“At a 3D movie”以及本文主要揭秘了3D电影的工作原理及视觉效果的实现可推断文章可能刊登在介绍电影秘密的版块。故选D。

【分析】
这是一篇介绍3D电影原理的英语阅读理解，共5道题，涵盖写作方法、词义猜测、信息组合、细节理解、推理判断五类阅读题型。解题时需先通读全文把握主旨（3D电影的制作与呈现原理），再针对每道题的题型特点，定位原文对应段落，结合题干要求逐一分析选项：第1题需判断文章开头的写作方式，第2题需结合转折关系猜测词义，第3题需梳理3D电影的流程排序，第4题需定位双摄像头的作用，第5题需根据内容推断杂志版块。
【解析】
1. 第1题（写作方法题）：根据原文开头“Put on your 3D glasses and the dinosaur jumps off the screen...”是3D电影的真实情景（事实），作者以此引出下文，故选C。
2. 第2题（词义猜测题）：原文中“It looks real, but it’s an illusion!”里的转折连词but表明，illusion与real（真实的）意思相反，即“不真实的事物”，故选A。
3. 第3题（信息组合题）：梳理3D电影的完整流程：①先用两个相邻的摄像头拍摄（④）→②播放时呈现两幅画面（②）→③两幅画面重叠导致看起来模糊（③）→④3D眼镜分别处理水平和垂直光线（⑤）→⑤大脑将两幅画面混合为一幅（①），对应顺序为④②③⑤①，故选D。
4. 第4题（细节理解题）：根据第三段“using two cameras with lenses placed close to each other, just like our eyes”可知，使用两个摄像头是为了模拟人眼，捕捉不同视角，故选B。
5. 第5题（推理判断题）：文章主要揭秘3D电影的工作原理，属于电影秘密相关内容，因此最可能出现在杂志的“Secrets of Movies”版块，故选D。
