Never swim alone.Many drownings involve single swimmers.When you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others.

5、ues by lifeguards at ocean beaches are caused by currents.These currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back.This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore.If you are caught in a rip current, don't fight it by tr

A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“Many believe Virginia Beach is at

12、its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild.”可推斷，人不多，氣候還尚溫和的淡季是游覽維珍尼亞灘的最好時間。氣候還尚溫和的季節(jié)應(yīng)是秋季，故選A項。 18.

The Basics of Math—Made Clear Basic Math introduces students to the basic concepts of mathematics, as well as the fundamentals of more tri

47、cky areas. These 30 fantastic lectures are designed to provide students with an understanding of arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra(代數(shù))and beyond. The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic. They also look into exponents(指數(shù)), the order of operations, and square roots.

48、In addition to learning how to perform various mathematical operations, students discover why these operations work, how a particular mathematical topic relates to other branches of mathematics, and how these operations can be used practically. Basic Math starts from the relatively easier concepts

49、 and gradually moves on to the more troublesome ones, so as to allow for steady and sure understanding of the material by students. The lectures offer students the chance to “make sense” of mathematical knowledge that may have seemed so frightening. They also help students prepare for college mathem

50、atics and overcome their anxiety about this amazing—and completely understandable—field of study. By the conclusion of the course, students will have improved their understanding of basic math. They will be able to clear away the mystery(神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more confiden

51、ce than they ever imagined. In addition, they will strengthen their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges. Professor H. Siegel, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as “the best math teacher in America”， is a devoted teacher and has a gift for explaining mathematical conc

52、epts in ways that make them seem clear and obvious. From the basic concrete ideas to the more abstract problems, he is a master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less scary. With a PhD in Mathematics Education from Georgia State University, Dr. Siegel teaches mathematics at Central Ari

53、zona College. His courses include various make-up classes and a number of lectures for future primary school teachers. If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back. 56．What does the course

54、 Basic Math mainly cover? A．Algebra. B．College Mathematics. C．Arithmetic. D．Mathematics Education. 57．What benefits can students expect from Basic Math? A．Stronger imaginative ability. B．Additional presentation skills. C．More mathematical confidence. D．Greater chances of becoming teachers.

55、 58．What can we learn about Professor H．Siegel? A．He is a guest lecturer at Kentucky Educational Television. B．He is to deliver 30 lectures in Basic Math. C．He works in Georgia State University. D．He specializes in training teachers. 59．Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?

56、 A．A news report. B．A book review. C．A lesson plan. D．An advertisement. 【要點綜述】本文主要介紹了一個數(shù)學課程，從課程內(nèi)容、功能用途、預(yù)期目標、主講人等方面做了詳細說明，是一則招生廣告。 56. C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句“The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic.”可知此題答案為C。 57. C　細節(jié)理解題。本題考查課程的功能作用。第四段整體在講述該課程的功能作用。只有C項為本段中講述的。其他項均未涉及。 58.

57、B　推理判斷題。本題適合用排除法對四個選項進行排除。文中只說明他是被Kentucky Educational Television評為美國最好的數(shù)學教師，并沒說明他是在電視臺做客座講師；文中也談到他在Georgia State University取得博士學位，而他是在Central Arizona College教數(shù)學。他的課是為future primary school teachers做準備，而不是直接培訓教師。本文只談到他一個教師，所以推斷應(yīng)該是唯一教師。結(jié)合第一段數(shù)學課程是由30個講座構(gòu)成，所以選B。 59. D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段 “If the course fails

58、to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back.”可知，此課程為收費課程，應(yīng)是招生廣告。所以選D。 65. Top lists are lecturing people on everything from “100 places to visit” to “100 books to read”. Aren't you just tired of being told

59、 what to do with your time? Now you have a list to end all lists! Take a look at the following two examples from the list of “101 things not to do”： Swim with Dolphins(海豚)? Swimming with dolphins is one of the world's most profitable tourist activities.However, not every dolphin will welcome hav

60、ing their busy, tiring day interrupted by tourists screaming and pushing around them in the water. Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded with tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers(螺旋槳)． Here's a little secret. Dolphins look like smiling at you, bu

61、t actually they're just opening their mouths. Go to See the Mona Lisa? There must be something about the mysterious(神秘的) smile. The 6 million people who visit the lady in the Louvre every year can't all be wrong, after all. But they can be quite annoying, standing in front of you; holding up their

62、 cameras to prevent you from seeing anything. In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds at most. If the mysterious lady in the pic

63、ture knew her fate, she wouldn't just be smiling, she'd be laughing. So, still long to see the Mona Lisa? If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die. Visit www.not2dobeforeidie.co.uk and buy the book at a 20% discount. 60. According to the passage, swimmi

64、ng with dolphins ________. A. is the world's most popular tourist activity B. gives fun to both tourists and dolphins C. will make tourists busy and tired D. can cause danger to dolphins 61. What does the author think about going to see Mona Lisa? A. It is wrong to go and see the mysterious sm

65、ile. B. It is not as satisfying as expected. C. Fifteen seconds in front of the painting is enough. D. Queuing for hours is worthwhile. 62. The list of “101 things not to do” is made most probably because its author ________. A. thinks it boring to do the things suggested by other lists B. bel

66、ieves other lists are not humorous enough C. intends to persuade people to read more lists D．wants to provide a list different from other lists 63. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To advertise a book. B. To introduce a website. C. To comment on popular lists. D. To recommend tourist activities. 【要點綜述】該篇短文前面否定“100 lists to do”的種種弊端，最后推出自己的101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die，很明顯是一則常見的廣告。 60. D　細節(jié)理解題。從Swim with Dolphins下面材料中的第一段最后一句可知和海豚一起游泳會給海豚帶來危險。 61
