22、,但同時提出并不是所有的動物都有這種感知力,比如大熊貓只能在地震發(fā)生時才會感覺到震動。 1.A　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“Mandara seemed to know something big was about to happen.”可知,Mandara表現(xiàn)得很奇怪是因為它感覺有一些不同尋常的事情要發(fā)生。故選A項。 2.A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“‘Animals can hear above and below our range of hearing,’ said Brandie Smith. ‘That􀆳s part of their special abil

23、ities. They􀆳re more sensitive to the environment, which is how they survive.’”可知,Brandie Smith認為許多動物的聽覺很敏銳。故選A項。 3.A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Not all the animals behaved unusually before the quake. For example, Smith said the zoo􀆳s giant pandas didn􀆳t jump up until the shaking actual

24、ly began.”可知,在地震之前,大熊貓并沒有異常的表現(xiàn),由此推斷出大熊貓不能感知地震。故選A項。 4.C　主旨大意題。本文主要講了地震前動物們的表現(xiàn),有些動物對地震敏感,而有些動物對地震沒有察覺。故選C項。 B 【文章大意】 本文是一篇記敘文。1883年的一次強烈的暴風雨使得La Estrella的許多人喪生,許多房屋也受到毀壞。之后村子里的人就慢慢地離開了。幾十年以來,整個村子就只有Martin和他妻子在那里生活。 5.B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句“It was once filled with life,with hundreds of inhabitants,a ch

25、urch,two schoolhouses and several bars.”可知,這里曾經(jīng)充滿生命力,有數(shù)百名居民、一座教堂、兩間校舍和幾家酒吧。據(jù)此推斷,這個村子過去是充滿活力的。故選B項。 6.A　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“The place lost its charm after that and locals gradually began to abandon their homes.”可知,那次暴風雨之后,這個地方就失去了魅力,當?shù)厝碎_始慢慢地離開他們的家園。故選A項。 7.B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第一句“Martin and Sinforosa􀆳

26、;s story began about 70 years later,when they became one pair of the few youths still living in La Estrella.”可知,大約七十年后,Martin和Sinforosa的故事開始了,那時他們成為仍然居住在La Estrella村中少有的年輕人中的一對。再聯(lián)系第二段暴風雨發(fā)生的時間是1883年可知,他們相愛大約是在1953年。故選B項。 8.D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段第二句“‘Because my wife was born in this place,she has always been

27、 living here.’”可知,因為Sinforosa在這個地方出生,所以她一直居住在這里。因此,Sinforosa已經(jīng)習慣了這里的生活,這是她沒有離開村子的原因。故選D項。 Ⅱ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇說明文。每年有成千上萬的游客前往北極和南極地區(qū),對極地地區(qū)的自然生態(tài)造成了嚴重的影響。本文介紹了人們對此現(xiàn)象所持的不同觀點。 1.thousands　考查固定用法。句意:每年,有成千上萬的游客參觀北極和南極地區(qū)。thousands of成千上萬的。 2.a　考查冠詞。句意:但越來越多的人前往地球的兩端會對脆弱的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)產(chǎn)生負面影響。have a(n)…effect on“對……有影

28、響”, negative 發(fā)音的第一個音素為輔音音素,故用不定冠詞a。 3.be allowed　考查被動語態(tài)。句意:游客應該被允許參觀極地嗎?主語tourists與allow之間是被動關系,根據(jù)情態(tài)動詞should可知填be allowed。 4.increases　考查主謂一致。句意:將游客運送到該地區(qū)增加了船舶和飛機的交通……。主語transporting tourists to the regions是動名詞短語,故謂語動詞用單數(shù)形式,本文的時態(tài)是一般現(xiàn)在時,故填increases。 5.where　考查定語從句。句意:因為人們可接近野生動物的地方的數(shù)量很少……。此句是定語從

29、句,先行詞the places指地點,從句缺少狀語,故用where引導定語從句。 6.concentrated　考查固定用法。句意:……旅游交通集中在特定區(qū)域,結(jié)果使北極植被面臨危險。be/become concentrated in集中于……;被集中在……。 7.putting　考查非謂語動詞。句意:……旅游交通集中在特定區(qū)域,結(jié)果使北極植被面臨危險。邏輯主語tourist traffic與put之間是主動關系,故用現(xiàn)在分詞putting作結(jié)果狀語。 8.to　考查介詞。句意:其他人說進入這些非常特殊的地方不應該僅僅局限于研究人員和科學家。access to為固定短語,意為“接近,

30、進入”。 9.personal　考查形容詞。句意:極地旅游使人們與極地地區(qū)建立了深厚的私人聯(lián)系。修飾名詞connections用形容詞,故填personal,表示“個人的,私人的”。 10.conservation　考查名詞。句意:世界野生動物基金會的旅游和保護副總裁Jim Sano告訴TFK……。作介詞for的賓語,需用名詞conservation,表示“保護, 保存”。 Ⅲ.Good morning, everyone. I􀆳d like to share my ideas about books in the future to you.

31、 ┬with I think the books will be quite different from that they are now. First of all, they will look like the iPads today,

32、 ┬what but their sizes will be changeable, too. Secondly, their colours will change depend on how the surroundings change, ┬(and"/" so) ┬depending which will b

33、e good for eye. What􀆳s more, they will be very much more practical. For example, if you met a question ┬eyes ┬meet when reading, you can immediate get an answer by “talking” with the book. In ∧┬a word, I think books in the future ┬immediately will be more useful and interested. ┬interesting That􀆳s all. Thank you!
