Ⅱ 阅读理解

A

Various animals are respected and even worshipped(崇拜)in

different cultures．In Hinduism, for example, cows are valued for their gentle nature．However, in

ancient Egypt, crocodiles(鳄鱼) were regarded as living representations of the god Sobek．

During the serious drought in the 15th century, the Mossi were led to an undiscovered pond by

the crocodiles．This not only allowed the Mossi to survive, but also led to the founding of the

village Bazoulé．

As the villagers owe their survival to the crocodiles, they now care for and live side by side

with them．The villagers even bury the crocodiles and hold funerals for them after their death．The

crocodiles are not only regarded as protectors of Bazoulé，but also fortune-tellers that give best

wishes to the villagers．It seems that the worship of the crocodiles has paid off．For over 70 years,

there has never been a death from a crocodile attack in Bazoulé．It’s normal for women to wash

their clothes in the water and gather plants nearby．And it is also normal to see children playing

around the water where the crocodiles live．

Naturally, this strange relationship between the villagers and crocodiles has attracted a lot of

attention．Tourists from all over the world come to the village, hoping to catch sight of this unlikely

bond between humans and crocodiles．Visitors have the opportunity to buy a chicken, with which

they can attract the crocodiles out of the water．You can pose for pictures, and if you’re brave

enough, you can sit on a crocodile’s back just like the local children usually do．

The village is trying to develop its tourism, but unfortunately, it was found to be threatened by

global warming．Lower annual rainfall means that the pond will vanish one day．Perhaps the

legends are true, and when this happens，the crocodiles will lead the Mossi to a new water source．

【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了非洲的巴扎村里凶猛的鳄鱼和人类长期和平相处，这一和谐现象吸引了无数游客慕名而来。

1．Why were the Mossi so grateful to the crocodiles?

A．They never did harm to the Mossi．

B．They once happened to help the Mossi．

C．They led the Mossi back to their homes．

D．They provided clean drinking water for the Mossi．

B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的内容可知，十五世纪，在一次大旱中，摩西人外出寻找水源，跟随鳄鱼找到一个水塘。从此他们便在那里定居并把村庄叫作巴扎。这就是摩西人世代感激鳄鱼的原因。

2．What does the author intend to show in Paragraph 3?

A．The crocodile attacks cannot cause any death．

B．The villagers get along well with the crocodiles．

C．The crocodiles can bring good luck to the villagers．

D．The crocodiles can protect the villagers from danger．

B 解析：写作意图题。根据第三段的内容可知，在巴扎村，鳄鱼们死后，人们会埋葬它们并给它们举办葬礼，而且妇女在池塘边洗衣服，小孩在池塘边玩耍都没有危险，所以此段主要是想说明村民们和鳄鱼相处融洽。

3．What does the underlined word “vanish” in the last paragraph mean?

A．Move．

C．Narrow．

B．Freeze．

D．Disappear．

D 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词前面说降雨量减少，后面说鳄鱼可能会带领人们找新的水源可推测，池塘可能会消失。

4．What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．More and more tourists will visit the village．

B．The crocodiles will probably move to a new place．

C．Villagers will take measures to protect the crocodiles．

D．The crocodiles in the village are becoming less and less．

B 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段的最后两句可推测，由于降雨量小，池塘可能会消失，所以鳄鱼有可能会搬走。

B

Starbucks says it uses one billion plastic straws(吸管) every year,

but it plans to stop the use of plastic straws in each of its 28，000 stores

across the globe．Starbucks’ announcement comes just a week after

Seattle, the city where the first Starbucks opened, forbade plastic

straws．

In order to replace the straws, Starbucks has developed a new lid(盖子) for some of its drinks

like iced coffee and tea．Actually, the lid has a raised lip．Some people have compared the new lids

to “adult sippy cups”，CNN Business reported．

Starbucks is always saying it is a company that cares much about the environment．In recent

years, awareness about the effect that plastic is having on the environment—in particular, the ocean—has caused scientists to sound the alarm about a need to curb the use of plastics．

“What we realize is that these billions of little things in the ocean, such as one man’s

toothbrush, one lady’s comb, all can cause the problem，” Emily Penn said．She is the co-founder

of an expedition(探险队)．“But what makes us happy is that we can solve it well through our daily

actions．We need billions of small actions—just little daily things to reduce the pollution．”

Customers who still want to enjoy a Starbucks drink with a straw will be able to request one,

but it won’t be plastic．Instead, they will be given a straw made from paper or other eco-friendly

materials．

In May, McDonald’s said it would experience a change from the use of plastic to paper straws

in Ireland and the United Kingdom．The announcement from Starbucks could be a sign that more

large chain restaurants will accept this kind of activity．

【解题导语】 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了星巴克公司为了减少海洋污染，计划停止使用塑料吸管，并从西雅图地区开始执行。

5．How does Starbucks serve customers without using plastic straws?

A．By selling iced drinks．

B．By providing cups without lids．

C．By using spoons to replace straws．

D．By providing a new kind of cups．

D 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段可知，星巴克设计了一种新的杯子，它的杯盖上有特殊的吸口，可替代原来的吸管。

6．What does the underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A．Stop．

C．Control．

B．Notice．

D．Report．

C 解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的 In recent years, awareness about the effect that

plastic is having on the environment—in particular, the ocean—has caused scientists to sound the

alarm可知，塑料给环境造成了很大的影响，所以可推测，此处意为“控制塑料的使用”。

7．According to Emily Penn, what can be the main cause of sea pollution?

A．Plastic alarms．

B．Some special lids．

C．Paper straws in the ocean．

D．Small things thrown into the sea．

D 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的第一句可知，Emily Penn认为是一些日常生活中人们使用的小东西大量进入海洋造成了污染。

8．What might be the best title for the passage?

A．Starbucks Will Stop Using Plastic Straws

B．Starbucks Is Trying to Reduce Sea Pollution

C．Starbucks Will Invent a New Kind of Straws

D．Starbucks Is Trying to Attract More Customers

A 解析：标题归纳题。本文主要是讲星巴克为了减少海洋污染，将停止使用塑料吸管。

Ⅲ 完形填空

My mother used to ask me what is the most important part of the body．Through the years I

would __1__ the correct answer．When I was young, I thought __2__ was very important to us as

humans, so I said，“My ears, Mummy．”She said，“No．Many people are __3__ ．But you keep

thinking about it and I will ask you again soon．”

Several years passed before she asked me again．Since making my first __4__ I had often

thought over the question．So this time I told her，“Mummy, it must be our eyes．” She looked at

me and said，“You are __5__ fast, but the answer is not correct because there are many people who

are blind．”

__6__ the years, Mother asked me a couple more __7__ and always her response to my

answer was，“No, but you are getting __8__ every year, my child．”Then last year, my grandpa

__9__．Everyone was heartbroken．Everybody was crying．My mum looked at me when it was our

__10__ to say our final goodbye to grandpa．She asked me，“Do you know the most important body

part yet, my dear？”

I was __11__ when she was asking me this now．I always thought this was a __12__ between

her and me．She saw the __13__ on my face and told me，“This question is very important．It shows

that you have really __14__ your life．” I saw her eyes well up with tears．She said，“My dear, the

most important body part is your __15__．” I asked，“Is it because they hold up your head？”

She replied，“No, it is __16__ on them a crying friend or a loved one can rest his or her head．I only

hope that you have enough __17__ and friends and that you will have a shoulder to cry __18__

when you need it．” Then and there I understood the most important body part is not a __19__

one．It is sympathetic to the pain of __20__．

【解题导语】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。母亲问“我”身体最重要的部位是什么，“我”给出了几个答案，母亲说都不正确。爷爷去世时，母亲给了“我”答案，那就是身体最重要的部位是肩膀，因为每个人的一生中总有一些时候需要有个肩膀可以靠着哭泣。“我”最后明白了身体最重要的部位应该是无私的，它承载着对别人的痛苦的同情。

1．A．notice

C．doubt

B．believe in

D．guess at

D 解析：此处表示“我”一直在揣测这个问题的正确答案。notice“注意到”；believe

in“相信”；doubt“怀疑”；guess at “猜测”。故答案选D。

2．A．love

C．sound

C 解析：从下文“My ears”可知答案。

3．A．blind

C．invisible

B．deaf

D．thoughtful

B．health

D．sight

B 解析：由句意可知，当“我”回答耳朵最重要时，母亲说很多人是聋哑人。

4．A．discovery

C．attempt

B．decision

D．suggestion

C 解析：由上文“my first”以及上文内容可推知，这里表示自从“我”第一次尝试回答这个问题以来，“我”一直在思考这个问题。make a discovery“发现”；make a decision“决定”；make an attempt“尝试”；make a suggestion “提议”。依据句意可知，答案选C。

5．A．learning

C．growing

B．thinking

D．changing

A 解析：由“but”可知，“我”虽然学得很快，但是回答得不正确。

6．A．Before

C．Beyond

B．Till

D．Over

D 解析：介词over表示在一段时间内。其他选项均无此意。

7．A．ways

C．questions

B．things

D．times

D 解析：由上文内容以及下文“always”可知，此处表示这些年来就这个问题母亲又问了“我”几次。此处容易误选C，依据文章，这里不是表示问更多的问题，而是表示就一个问题问了好几次。

8．A．stronger

C．smarter

B．taller

D．nicer

C 解析：因为“我”每次回答都与以前不同，所以母亲说“我”一年比一年聪明了。句中的“but”是重要的提示词。

C．died D．got wounded

C 解析：由下文“to say our final goodbye to grandpa”可知“爷爷去世了”。

B．turn

D．chance

B 解析：It is one’s turn to do sth．意为“轮到某人做某事”。

11．A．shocked

C．interested

B．quarrel

D．joke

A 解析：在此之前，“我”一直以为这是“我”和母亲之间的一个游戏，没想到在这样的场合她又提出了这个问题。

13．A．worry

C．regret

B．puzzlement

D．pain

B 解析：联系上下文语境可知，“我”的表情一定是很困惑(puzzlement)的。worry“担心”；regret“遗憾”；pain“疼痛”，均不符合句意。

14．A．enjoyed

C．disliked

B．found

D．lived

D 解析：live a(n)/one’s．．．life意为“过着……的生活”。其他选项用在此处均不符合句意。

15．A．shoulders

C．hands

B．feet

D．hair

A 解析：由下文“hold up your head”可知，母亲认为人体最重要的部位是肩膀。

16．A．how

C．why

B．because

D．whether

B 解析：依据上文“Is it because they hold up your head？”可确定答案。

17．A．respect

C．love

B．favor
