D.The fog was getting thicker and thicker.
23.Why is it no trouble at all to the stranger to find the way in the fog?D

分析 这篇短文讲述的是在一个大雾天,Smith先生要去开一个很重要的会.在这样的天气里,人们很容易迷路.幸运的是,Smith先生得到了一个陌生人的帮助.这个人在茫茫大雾中没有费什么力气就找到了Smith先生要去的地方,原来他是一个盲人.

解答 21.B.词义猜测题.根据划线短语所在的句子以及上下文的意思可知,在一个雾很大的一天,Smith先生要去开一个很重要的会议,He tried to walk there but found he was quite lost.Suddenly he bumped into a stranger.他走路去那里,但是发现自己迷路了.这时他碰到了一个陌生人.故bump into在这里的意思应该是偶然碰到.故选B.
22.A.推理判断题.根据短文中Buses,cars and taxis were not able to run and were standing by the side of the road.可知,在雾大的天气里,开车是很危险的,故B这个句子是正确的;根据People were trying to find their way about on foot but were losing their way in the fog.可知,在大雾中,人们很容易迷路,故C这个句子也是正确的;根据The fog was getting thicker every minute可知,雾变得越来越大了,故D这个句子也是正确的.而根据故事的结尾我们知道,这个帮助Smith先生的陌生人是一个盲人,因此A不对.故选A.
23.D.推理判断题.根据最后一段It is no trouble at all to me,"said the stranger,"I am blind可以知道,这个陌生人在茫茫大雾里好像没有费什么事,就帮助Smith先生找到了他要去的地方,因为他是一个盲人,他不是通过眼睛来看路,而是通过自己的心.故应该选D.
24.C.主旨大意题.这篇短文讲述的是在一个大雾天,Smith先生要去开一个很重要的会.在这样的天气里,人们很容易迷路.幸运的是,Smith先生得到了一个陌生人的帮助.原来这个人是一个盲人,这种天气对他来说没有什么影响.故C选项在一个雾天一个盲人帮助Smith领路最符合文意.故选C.

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

4.I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves,most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of.In fact,I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (观点) by creating worlds we could step into,take part in and live in.
With this unshakable belief,I,at fourteen,decided to become a writer.Here too,reading became useful.Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say,but being unable to find the right ways to say it.He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with,or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world.He cannot write without loving to read,because only through reading other people's writing can one discover what works,what doesn't and,in the end,together with lots of practice,what voice he has.
Now I am in college,and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction (文学作品).As a law student,my reading is in fact limited to subject matter-the volume (量) of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else.Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life.Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own.It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road,all from the comfort of my own armchair,to experience,though secondhand,exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.
 
41.What can be inferred about the author as a child?D
A.He never watched TV.

42.The underlined word"voice"in the second paragraph most probably means"C".
A.an idea                   
B.a sound quality
C.a way of writing            
D.a world to write about
43.What effect does reading have on the author?B
A.It helps him to realize his dream.
B.It opens up a wider world for him.
C.It makes his college life more interesting.
D.It increases his interest in worldwide travel.
44.Which of the following can be the best title of this text?A
A.Why do I read?

2.Pierre is a 25-year-old penguin(企鹅)at the California Academy of Sciences.Due to his old age,he was losing his feathers,which made him feel too cold to swim in the pool.Therefore,biologists at the academy had a wetsuit created for this penguin to help him get back in the swimming pool.
Unlike marine(海生的)mammals,which have a layer of blubber(鲸脂)to keep them warm,penguins depend on their waterproof feathers.Without them,Pierre was unwilling to jump into the swimming pool and ended up trembling on the side of the pool while his 19peers played in the water.
"He was cold;he would shake,"said Pam Schaller,a  senior biologist.Schaller first tried a heat lamp to keep Pierre warm.Then she got another idea:if wetsuits keep humans warm in the cold Pacific,why not make one for Pierre?
Schaller designed the suit,which covered Pierre's body and had small openings for his flippers (鳍).
"I would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps,and cut and refit until it looked like it was extremely suitable."she said.
One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new suit,but in fact,they accepted his new look.He swam freely and got along with others well,although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.
Schaller couldn't say for sure whether the wetsuit allowed Pierre to recover his fine feathers,but"certainly we were able to keep him comfortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay comfortable".
Pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back.
24.Pierre felt too cold to swim in the pool because ofA.
A.having few feathers due to old age    
B.not having a layer of blubber
C.having no wetsuit                  
D.others penguins rejecting him
25.The idea of making a wetsuit for Pierre came fromB.
A.total invention            
B.the use of wetsuit on humans
C.the use of heat lamp        
D.waterproof feathers
26.Schaller followed Pierre in order to seeD.
A.whether other penguins would reject him
B.whether the wetsuit would keep the feathers from recovering
C.if the wetsuit kept warm
D.if anywhere of the wetsuit needed to be cut and refit
27.The best title of the passage isC.
A.Unwilling to Swim             
B.Old Penguin Getting Bald(秃的)
C.Wetsuit for An old Penguin       
D.Strange Look of Pierre.

9.Imagine what you could do with a machine that could make things disappear.
(36)F In the books of J.R.R.Tolkein,Bilbo Baggins finds a ring that can make him disappear.Of course,there's also poor Harry Potter,who used his invisibility cloak (隐形斗篷)to hide  from danger.
Now that you've got some ideas,it's time for the hard part:building the cloak.(37)G
An invisibility cloak has to cheat anything or anyone who might be watching.In order to understand how something can be seen,it's important to understand how we see.
Human beings can only see objects that reflect light waves.These waves enter the eyes and are then processed by the brain.However,if an object doesn't reflect light,then the waves don't enter the eyes,and the brain doesn't process.(38)C
Cummer was part of a team of scientists from Duke University,including David Smith and David Schurig,who built the world's first version of an invisibility cloak.(39)EHe in May said that an invisibility cloak was possible and Pendry was not the only one thinking about a disappearing act.At the same time,a Scottish physicist,Ulf Leonhardt published a paper on building invisibility equipment.
"It wasn't easy,"says Cummer."As often happens in science and research,it didn't work very well the first time.That first cloak didn't work like Harry Potter's-(40)BSo the research is still under way."

A.Would you like an invisibility cloak that works just like the one Harry Potter got from his father?
B.The scientists didn't actually seeanything disappear.
C.So building an invisibility cloak is building something that doesn't reflect light.
D.Researchers in England and the USA have found the materials to build such a cloak.
E.They had been inspired by the work of a British physicist,John Pendry.
F.For inspiration,you could read some books.
G.To do that,you have to give up science fiction and turn to real science.

6.How Safe Is Your Bed?
Do you consider your bed a safe place of rest and calm?Do you sink into a mattress (床垫) after a hard day's work and feel tension and stress drain away as you rest your weary head on a soft pillow?Well,you might not feel so relaxed if you knew that tiny pests were hiding there!It seems that beds may not be such a good place for our health and happiness----they could actually be making us ill!
Recent studies have shown that bacteria,fungi and dust mites (螨虫),some smaller than the diameter of a hair,live in our bedding.When we move around in our sleep,we disturb them and they are bounced up into the air--which we then breathe in as we sleep.According to the American Lung Association,four out of five households in the United States now have high levels of dust mites,although it's not the mites themselves that cause the problems,but their droppings.These are"highly allergenic (致敏的)"according to Dr William Berger,a fellow with the American Academy of Allergy,Asthma and Immunology."Even if you aren't allergic…they can still irritate you,the way pepper would if it blew into your nose and eyes."
Brendan Boor,Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering,who carries out bed research,also found that bed dust in the air leads to allergies--causing watery eyes,sneezing,coughs and asthma.He has recommended ways to limit our exposure to these boring allergens:
Firstly,he suggests vacuuming your mattress regularly-weekly,or even daily.He also recommends doing away with carpets and washing floors.Using allergen-proof bed covers,he says,can reduce the risk of getting allergies.In addition,washing bedding and pillows frequently can help,as can a portable air cleaner placed near the bed.
If you do as Brendan Boor suggests,you will breathe in cleaner air as you sleep …or will you?Is it really safe for you to go back in your bed?
Studies show that beds aren't a good place for your well-being and they can even make you sick.Mites,bacteria and other tiny living things in your beds can cause illness or irritate you.Therefore,experts suggest that cleaning carpets,washing floors,using allergen-proof bed covers,and washing bedding and pillows frequently can make your bed safe..

3.Do you know what is scarier than bees?Pirate bees!Scientists have discovered a new species of bee that survives by capturing hives(蜂房) made by other species.The behavior is usually seen in cuckoos(杜鹃),so the new species has been named the"cuckoo bee".
Discovered by Dr.Jakub Straka of Charles University in Prague,and Dr.Michael S.Engel of the University of Kansas,the cuckoo bee was found during a journey to the Republic of Cape Verde is an island chain off the western coast of Africa.Cape Verde is an island that has not been visited before by scientists.Scientists believe the area may be home to a lot of undiscovered species.
According to Straka and Engel's report,the cuckoo bee enters a hive secretly.While the host is out collecting pollen(花粉),the female cuckoo bee enters the hive and lays her eggs on top of the host's.The cuckoo bee eggs hatch more quickly than the other eggs.Then,when they come out of their eggs,the newborn cuckoo bees immediately kill all of the host's eggs and young,and then eat all the stored food.Eventually,they gain control of the hive and live off its resources.
Physically,the cuckoo bees look like zebra,featuring mostly black-and-white patterns.Also,they are mostly quite large.But one species was only 5mm long,which is actually quite small for a bee.Engel and Straka believe the large size of most of the cuckoo bee species is the result of"island gigantism(岛屿巨型化)",a phenomenon where a species can grow at an extreme rate when separated from the rest of its kind.
The researchers are now trying to explore the diversity(多样化) of the cuckoo bees'hosts and also to understand their evolution across the islands.

32.Why is the bee called the"cuckoo bee"?A
A.It survives in a similar way to the cuckoo bird.
B.It looks like the cuckoo bird.
C.Its sound is similar to that of the cuckoo bird.
D.It is from the same island as the cuckoo bird.
33.What does the underlined word"capturing"in the first paragraph probably mean?C
A.Building.
B.Destroying.
C.Controlling.
D.Stealing.
34.The cuckoo beeA.
A.has zebra-like patterns    
 B.collects pollen before entering a hive
C.kills the host bee after entering a hive    
D.enters a hive in a group
35.What is the real reason for most cuckoo bees being larger?D
A.They can get plenty of food from other bees'hives.
B.Their habitat,Cape Verde,has not been polluted.
C.Their hosts are diverse.
D.They are separated from the rest of their kind.
