13.D.分析：借助上文句意和该句句意(不是所有的cook的尸体都在1779年被。海里)判断D(埋葬)是答案。

14.A.分析：借助被选项的关系：suggestion和 proposal是近义词，且用法接近，所以相互排除掉，比较A和D，判断A((来自伦敦的)声明)正确。

15．C本题要选sure，表示Cliff Thornton对sure后面的that从句表达的将要发生的事有信心。而safe，weak或lucky的词义与句子表达的意思不符。

译文：库克船长弓箭的传说

这本是个绝妙的传说，但DNA测试最终结束了这个长达两个世纪之久的古老故事。传说是关于一支据说是用1779年在桑伟奇群岛死去的英国探险家船长詹姆士库克的遗骨刻成的夏威夷弓箭。

在不久前DNA 证据宣布该弓箭并非来自于库克船长的遗骨时，奥大利亚博物馆收藏经理尤大书?菲利普说：“澳大利亚博物馆里并没有库克的遗骨。”但这并不能停止博物馆在展览会 2

上展出弓箭。“考古发现：澳大利亚博物馆的宝藏”展览中的确还展示了一个在1778年夏威夷国王卡兰尼欧普送给库克的一个羽毛斗篷。

库克是英国最伟大探险家之一，他在1770年发现了“南大陆”，也就是现在的澳大利亚。此后在桑伟奇群岛被棒击致死。

库克弓箭传说始于1824年，当时夏威夷国王卡莫哈莫哈在弥留之际将弓箭赐给了库克妻子的亲戚，一名伦敦外科医生威廉正当斯，并告诉他弓箭是在那次致命殴打后用库克的遗骨做成的。

在19世纪90年代，弓箭被交给澳大理亚博物馆。这个传说直到与科学直接接触才停止。据菲利普说，澳大利亚和新西兰的试验室的DNA测试证实弓箭并非取材于库克的遗骨，而更可能来自动物的骨头。

但是，库克迷们却不肯放弃希望。他们期待库克传说之一将会被证明是正确，并且他人部分遗骨还会被发现。正如他们所说，有证据表明库克的遗骨并不是在1779年全都葬身大海了。库克船长协会的会长克利夫托马森在一个来自英国的声明中说：“在这个问题上，科技取得了胜利。我坚信某一天库克传说之一将会被证明是真的。”

这听起来完全不对——在一块木头里面钻些洞让它更耐敲打。但是这确实有效，因为击打产生的能量分散到了整块木头上，而不是集中于一个薄弱点。这个发展应该导致更有效和更轻的包装材料的产生。

木匠们几个世纪以来都知道一些木头比另一些更结实。例如山胡桃木被用做斧柄和轮辐，因为它可以承受振击而不会断裂。列如白橡木容易损坏得多，尽管它的质地一样细密。巴斯大学的Julian Vincent和他的研究小组都认为木头的内部结构能够解释这些不同。

许多树都有导管，这些导管通向树干上方，把水输到叶子。在橡木里，这些管道很大，而且是呈窄带状，但是在山胡桃木中这些管道小得多，而且分布得更平均。研究者们认为这个布局能够分散打击的能量到整块木头止，以此吸收较重的打击。为了测试这个理论，他们在一块没有管道的云杉木上钻了一些0.65毫米的洞，发现它能够承受重大的打击。只有当每平方厘米超过30个孔时，木头抵御敲打的表现才会减弱。均匀的物质不太好抵御敲打，因为受到影响的只有一小部分物质，来自打击的所有能量在折断材料时都集中在一两个地方，留下的散片常常没有受到破坏。

Vincent说，这些洞可以提供很多薄弱点，当它们破裂时一起吸收能量，而不是使能量聚在一个地方。“你可以控制木头断裂的地方，它还可以吸收更多的能量，更安全。” 研究人员相信，这个原则可用于任何一种材料，例如可用于制造更轻、保护力更强的包装物。斯图加特的Max Plank金属研究学院的Ulrike Wegst说，这一原则还可用在汽车的减震器、保护杠和军事车辆的装甲板等东西上。但是她强调说你需要设计材料时考虑力的方向。她说：“负荷的方向是很关键的。”

第二篇Avalanche and Its Safety

An avalanche is a sudden and rapid flow of snow, often mixed with air and water, down a mountainside.Avalanches are____1____ the biggest dangers in the mountains for both life and property.All avalanches are caused by an over-burden of material, typically snowpack, that is too massive and unstable for the slope____2____ supports it.Determining the critical load, the amount of over-burden which is____3____ cause an avalanche, ____4____ acomplex task involving the evaluation of a number of factors.Terrain slopes flatter than25degrees or steeper than60degrees typically have a low

____5____ of avalanche.Snow does not____6____ significantly on steep slopes;also, snow does not ____7____ easily on flat slopes.Human-triggered avalanches have the greatest incidence when the snow’s angle of rest1 is____8____ 35 and45 degrees;the critical angle, the angle at which the human incidence of avalanches is greatest, is38degrees.The rule of thumb2 is: A slope that is____9____ enough to hold snow but steep enough to ski has the potential to generate an avalanche, regardless of the angle.Additionally3, avalanche risk increases with ____10____;that is, the more a slope is disturbed by skiers, die more lijkely it is that an avalanche will occur.Due to the complexity of the subject, winter travelling in the backcountry4 is never 100% safe.Good avalanche safety is a continuous____11____， including route selection and examination of the snowpack, weather____12____ and human factors.Several well-known good habits can also____13____ the risk.If local authorities issue avalanche risk reports, they should be considered and all warnings should be paid ____14____ to.Never follow in the tracks of others without your own evaluations;snow conditions are almost certain to have changed since they were made.Observe the terrain and note obvious avalanche paths where plants are____15____ or damaged.Avoid traveling below others who might trigger an avalanche.词汇：

avalanche n.雪崩 snowpack n.积雪场 terrain n.地形，地势

steep adj.险峻的，陆峭的 trigger v.引起，激发 incidence n.发生(率)ski v.滑雪

complexity n.复杂性 注释：

1.angle of rest：这里指积雪保持静止的角度。

2.rule of thumb：指“a broadly accurate principle, based on experience or practice rather than theory”，即“通用法则，经验法则' 3.Additionally：是一个副词，用来引人新的事实或论点，意为“此外”。4.backcountry：人烟稀少的地区 练习：

D money 15.A missing

B grown

C big

D fresh 答案与题解：

1.A 表“雪崩是山上可能发生的最大危险之一”的意思，因此应该选择among(在……之中)。

2.B 从该句的语法结构上来看，此处需要一个关系代词，代替slope，所以that是最佳选择。选项A、C、D均不符合语法。

3.B 选项A不合语法，C和D符合语法，但不符合常识：过度的雪的积压可能导致雪崩，而不是必定导致雪崩。所以，B是最佳答案。

4.C 该句的主语是Determining the critical load，从上下文来看应该使用一般现在时，所以C是正确答案。

5.C 要确定本题答案的一个有效的方法是排除法。a low weight/form work of avalanche都不合逻辑，只有a low risk of avalanche符合上下文的意思。下面的句子解释了low risk of avalanche的道理，更证实了选risk是正确的。

6.D 第6题和第7题可以一起考虑。整个句子的意思是：在较陡峭的坡面上，雪不会大量堆积。在较为平坦的坡面，雪不会轻易滑动。

7.B 见注释6。

8.B 理解了句子的意思就不难判断选项：雪在静止状态下，角度在35° ~45°之间，最可能发生人为触发的雪崩。between：在……之间。

9.C 这个句子说明的是什么样的山坡最易发生雪崩，即A slope that is flat enough to hold snow but steep enough to ski。flat在此作“平坦”解，与后面的steep形成反义。

10.A 句中的that is表明，后半部分是对前半部分的进一步说明。所以，这里的选择要根据下文的意思判断。use是最佳选择,整个句子的意思是：山坡被滑雪者使用得越多，雪崩就越有可能发生。

11.D 尽管选项A、B和D都能和continuous搭配，从全段的内容判断，只有process是最佳选择，因为该段描写的是如何防备雪崩以及如何做好安全措施等一系列问题。

12.A 选项A、B、C都可以与weather搭配，但是根据上下文，只有A最为符合文章的内容。

13.B 选项A不符合句子的意思;C不能和risk搭配;D也不符合句子的意思，因为不可能完全消除雪崩的隐患。

14.C 该句主句使用的是被动语态，第二个动词是pay attention to的被动形式。选项A、B、D均不符合句子的意思。

15.A 该句是作者给出的一系列忠告之一，即认真观察地形，注意明显的雪崩路径：没有植物或植物被毁坏的地方。选项B、C、D均不符合句意。

译文：雪崩和安全问题

雪崩是雪掺杂着空气和水沿着山体突然迅猛地滑动造成的。雪崩是造成山区人们生命和财产安全的最大危险之一。

所有雪崩都是由于物质的过渡负荷造成，通常是积雪堆积过厚，很不稳固，超出了山坡面的承载能力。要确定山坡的临界承载量，可能造成突然雪崩的负荷量是一项很复杂的任务，需要衡量多个因素。

通常倾斜度小于25度，大于60度的山坡发生雪崩的危险要小一些。积雪不会在陡峭的山坡上大量堆积，同样也不会在平缓的山坡上快速滑动。当雪在静止状态下的角度在35_45度之间，最可能发生人为触发的雪崩。人为引发雪崩的临界角度是38度，是最易人为引发雪崩的角度。常规经验是：一个平缓的足以堆积积雪，同时陡峭的适合人们滑雪的山坡，无论角度如何，都有可能产生雪崩。此外，雪崩的危险随着使用的增加而增加，换言之，滑雪者活动得越频繁，雪崩的可能性越大。由于雪崩研究的复杂性，冬天在人烟稀少的地区旅行从来不是百分之百的安全。很好地躲避雪崩，保持安全是一个连续的过程，包括选择路线、检查积雪、了解天气状况及其他人为因素。以下几个广为人知的好习惯也可以降低风险：如果当地权威部门发布了雪崩警报，你应当予以考虑，加以注意。绝不要不加审度，就立刻接受他人意见。积雪自形成的那时就几乎注定要发生变化。认真观察地形，注意明显的雪崩路径：没有植物或植物被毁坏的地方。不要在那些可能引发雪崩的人或事物下面行走。

第四篇Animal’s “Sixth Sense”

A tsunami was triggered by an earthquake in the Indian Ocean in December, 2004.It killed tens of thousands of people in Asia and East Africa.Wild animals,____1____, seem to have escaped that terrible tsunami.This phenomenon adds weight to notions that1 they possess a “sixth sense” for____2____, experts said.Sri Lankan wildlife officials have said the giant waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island’s coast clearly____3____ wild beasts, with no dead animals found.“No elephants are dead, not____4____ a dead rabbit.I think animals can____5____ disaster.They have a sixth sense.They know when things are happening,” H.D.Ratnayake, deputy director of Sri Lanka’s Wildlife Department, said about one month after the tsunami attack.The____6____ washed floodwaters up to 2 miles inland at Yala National Park in the ravaged southeast, Sri Lanka’s biggest wildlife____7____ and home to hundreds of wild elephants and several leopards.“There has been a lot of____8____ evidence about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes.But it has not been proven,” said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behavior____9____ at Johannesburg Zoo.“There have been no____10____ studies because you can’t really test it in a lab or field setting2，” he told Reuters.Other authorities concurred with this____11____ ·

“Wildlife seem to be able to pick up certain____12____ especially birds...there are many reports of birds detecting impending disasters/’ said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.Animals____13____ rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators.The notion of an animal “sixth sense” — or____14____ other mythical power — is an enduring one3 which the evidence on Sri Larika’s ravaged coast is likely to add to.The Romans saw owls____15____ omens of impending disaster and many ancient cultures viewed elephants as sacred animals endowed with special powers or attributes.词汇：

tsunami n.海啸

trigger v.引发，触发 ravaged adj.被毁坏的 leopard n.豹 eruption n.喷发 migrate v.迁移

volcanic adj.火山的

concur v.(with)同意，赞成 impending adj.迫近的 predator n.食肉动物 mythical adj.神话般的 owl n.猫头鹰

omen n.预兆，征兆 endow v.赋予 注释：

1.adds weight to notions that：更加相信

2.field setting：field意为“实地，野外”，setting意为“环境”。field setting可译为“野外环境”。3.enduring one：由来已久的信念。one指代在句首出现的notion。enduring意为“持久的，永久的”。练习：

B occasionally

C doubtfully

Dcertainly 14.A some

B much

C many

D few 15.A on

B as

C for

D in 答案与题解：

1.B 第一句说的是海啸造成了巨大的人员伤亡，第二句说的是动物能逃脱海啸的袭击。两

句意思相反，所以要用however承接上文。

2.C 上文说的是：海啸是一种自然灾害，所以“sixth sense”范围只能是disasters，不能是shelters，foods或water。

3.A 本句继续在对比海啸造成的人员伤亡和动物能逃脱海啸这一现象。答案应该是选项A(missed)。其他三个选项的词义与上下文都不相配。

4.D 从上下文判断，本句的意思应该是：没有大象死亡，甚至连一只野兔或兔子也没有死亡。“甚至”的英语是even。

5.D 全文说的是动物的第六感觉，而feel(触觉)，see，hear都属于前五个感觉，所以不是正确答案。

6.A 本说的是海的巨浪将洪水带到离海岸远达2英里的地方。正确答案应该是waves。

7.C 从上下文判断，本句的意思应该是：Yala国家公园是斯里兰卡野生动物最大的保护区，而birthplaces(出生地)、playground(操场)和storage(储存)都与上下文表达的意思接不上，因此不是答案。reserve的意思是“保护区”，不是“储备”或“保留”。因此，选项C是答案。

8.B 下一句说，这些迹象(evidence)并没有被证实。因此，这些迹象不可能是scientific的。而experimental和chemical的词义与上下文不配合，因此也不是答案。只有apparent(明显的)与上下文的意思相配。apparent的迹象还需得到科学的验证。

9.A 在动物园里工作并发表对动物行为的专业性见解的人一定是专家学者(specialist)。其他三个选项都不合适。

10.B 本段第一句是说明为什么evidence没有得到科学验证。原因是科学家无法在实验室或野外进行特定的实验，以验证动物预见灾难的第六感觉。理解了上下文的意思，就知道选specific是最合适的。其他三个选项的词义与上下文不符，additional，especial和exceptional分别是“额外的”、“特别的”和“例外的”意思。

11.C concurred with(同意)支配的宾语应该是view，opinion，judgment这一类词。前面句子说的是某位科学家指出无法验证动物预见灾难的第六感觉的困难所在，其他专家也同意这一看法，所以选assessment是正确的。

12.D 本句说的是动物特别是鸟有捕捉灾难来临前某些征兆的能力。route(路线)、behavior(行为)和principle(原则)与上述意思相去甚远，只有phenomenon是答案。

13.D 根据常识判断，动物是要依赖味觉、听觉等逃避食肉动物的攻击。unwillingly(不情愿地)occasionally(偶尔)和doubtfully(怀疑地)与上述意思有俘，只有certainly是合适的选项。

14.A 从本句的意思判断，应该是“某种神奇的能力”,所以要选some。

15.B 本句的意思是“将……看成”，而英语的用词是see...as，所以要选as。

译文：动物的“第六感”

2004年12月由印度洋海域地震引发的海啸造成亚洲和东非数万人死亡。但野生动物们似乎躲过了可怕的海啸的袭击。有专家表示，这进一步证实了动物对自然灾难有“第六感”的观点。斯里兰卡负责野生动物的官员表示，巨浪席卷印度洋海岛沿岸，淹死了两万四千多人，但野生动物似乎都幸免于难，目前尚未发现一具动物的尸体。

斯里兰卡野生动物部门的副部长H.D.拉特纳亚克在海啸袭击过后一个月说道：“没有一头大象死亡，甚至没有一只野兔死亡。我认为动物能够感知灾难。它们有‘第六感’，它们知道灾难何时发生。”海洪冲向离岸二英里远的亚拉国家公园，这里是斯里兰卡最大的野生动物保护区，生活着几百头野生大象和一些美洲豹，海啸引发的洪水使亚拉国家公园所在的东南部地区变得一片狼藉。

“每当火山爆发或地震发生前，动物们的行为就会发生许多异常，比如犬吠或鸟类迁徙，但这些现象尚未得到科学证明。”南非约翰内斯堡动物园的动物行为专家马修·范·利罗普说。他对路透社记者说：“目前还没有这方面的专门研究，因为你无法在实验室或实际环境中进行真正的试验。”其他专家也同意这一看法。

“野生动物似乎能够感知某些特殊现象，尤其是鸟类。很多报告显示鸟类能察觉即将来临的灾难。”克莱夫?沃克这样说，他曾经写过数本关于非洲野生动物的书。

一些动物确实是依靠嗅觉或听觉等人类已知的官能来躲避危险的，比如食肉动物。

关于动物“第六感”(或者其他神秘力量)的说法已有很长时间，斯里兰卡被摧残的海滩可能会为这一说法再添一笔证据。

罗马人把猫头鹰视为迫近凶险的征兆，很多古代文明都将大象看做拥有特殊能力或特征的“圣兽”。

第五篇Singing Alarms Could Save the Blind

If you cannot see, you may not be able to1 find your way out of a burning building — and that could be fatal.A company in Leeds could change all that2____1____ directional sound alarms capable of guiding you to the exit.Sound Alert, a company____2____ the University of Leeds, is installing the alarms in a residential home for____3____ people in Sommerset and a resource centre for the blind in Cumbria.____4____ produce a wide range of frequencies that enable the brain to determine where the____5____ is coining from.Deborah Withington of Sound Alert says that the alarms use most of the frequencies that can be____6____ by humans.“It is a burst of white noise____7____ people say sounds like static on the radio，” she says.“Its life-saving potential is great.”

She conducted an experiment in which people were filmed by thermal-imaging cameras trying to find their way out of3 a large____8____ room.It____9____ them nearly four minutes to find the door____10____ a sound alarm, but only 15 seconds with one.Withington studies how the brain____11____ sounds at the university.She says that the____12____ of a wide band of frequencies can be pinpointed more easily than the source of a narrow band.Alarms____13____ the same concept have already been installed on emergency vehicles.The alarms will also include rising or falling frequencies to indicate whether people should go up____14____ down stairs.They were____15____ with the aid of a large grant from British Nuclear Fuels.词汇：

directional adj.定向的 exit n.出口 install v.安装

residential adj.居住的 static n.静电噪声 potential n.潜力

thermal-imaging热效应成像 pinpoint v.精确地确定 concept n.概念，观念 emergency n.紧急情况 grant n.授予物，准许 注释：

1.在谓语动词中，不能并列使用两个情态动词，如may和can就不能并列使用。如果由于表达需要，要同时用“可能”和“能够”，就得说(写)成may be able to。如： I may be able to come tomorrow, but I cannot promise.我可能明天来，但我不可能作出承诺。2.that指第一句所表达的意思。

D delivered 答案与题解：

1.B 空格后是一种装置，用它来改变火灾时找不到出口的危险境况。表达“用……装置”这层意思就要用介词with。其他几项均不符合句子的意思。

2.A Sound Alert是一家公司的名字，a company是Sound Alert的同位语，根据句意判断，应选择run by，意为“由……经营的”。其他选项虽然语法正确，但都与句意不符。

3.C 从文章标题以及文章内容和本句后面部分resource center for the blind，可以推断这里最好的选择就是C。

4.D 因为这种警告装置已在上文中提到：第一段中的directional sound alarms，第二段中的installing the alarms in a residential home...，所以这里的alarms是特指，要用定冠词。选项C是错误的，因为它是单数形式。

5.B 句子的前半句有a wide range of frequencies,发出来的应该是sound，而不是令人烦躁的noise。用music或bell都有些突然，与上下文的意思不连贯。

6.D 文章一直在讨论警报器、声音和波长，所以首先排除选项A;从上下文的意思看，不可能是选项B和C，因为警报器的制造，就是为了让失明的人听到。

7.C 选择A、B、D均不能构成语义连贯的句子，而且语法上也有问题。选项C能使句子结构成为“It is...that”的强调句型。

8.B 从所给的选项可以看出，这里要表达的意思是“烟火弥漫的房间”。有了这个理解，现在要做的就是选择正确的表达形式。A是“烟熏的”，D是“使……烟火弥漫的”，所以意思不对，C填入后就出现filled with smoke room，不符合语法。只有B是正确选项。

9.C 这里显然是“It takes somebody+time+动词不定式”的句型，但选择什么时态是关键。从上句看，应选择一般过去时，因为整个段落是对一次实验的描写，而且上面一句也使用了一般过去时。

10.C 后半句的one指上半句中的a sound alarm。该句上半句和下半句由but连接，表示相反的意思，从后半句的with可以看出，两个相对比的事物是:the door without a sound alarm和the door with a sound alarm，所以选择C。

11.A 选项B、C和D显然是错误的，因为词义不符。只有选项A是答案。句子的意思是，Withington在她的大学里研究大脑如何处理声音。

12.D 句子中的more...than表示该句是对两样事物的对比。than后面是the source of a narrow band,这里的narrow和前半句的wide形成反比，从上下文中可以看出，the source of a narrow band of(frequencies)是和the source of a wide band of frequencies形成对比。

13.D 这个句子有主语alarms，有谓语have been installed，这里应填入动词的分词形式。be based on是常用的搭配，所以应选择动词的过去分词形式。选项A的basis是名词，明显是错的。

14.A 根据上半句中的rising or falling frequencies，这里应填入or，与上半句表达的意思相一致。音频升高表示上楼，音频降低表示下楼。

15.A首先确定主语They指的是第一句中的主语The alarms，后半句说这种设备得到大笔

译文：警报器救盲人

如果看不见，那你可能会因找不到路而逃不出一幢失火楼房，那将是致命的。英国利兹市的一家公司发明的一种可指方向的警报器可能会把你引向出口。声音警报是一家由利兹大学设立的公司。该公司现在正在为位于萨莫塞特的一家盲人收容所和位于卡姆布雷亚的一家盲人资源中心安装此种装置。这种警报器发出的频率范围广，使人脑可以判断出声音的来源。

该公司的戴博拉?威星顿称此种警报器使人类可以听到大部分音频。她说：“它们是一种突发的频谱连续而均匀的声音。人们感觉它们听上去就像是收音机发出的静电噪声，其在救人方面潜力巨大。”

她进行了一次试验。她让人们在一所充满浓烟的大屋子里设法找到出路，同时她用热效应成像摄像机进行拍摄。在没有警报器时，这些人用了近4分钟才找到门，而在警报器的指引下，只用了15秒。

她在大学里对人脑如何处理声音进行研究，并提出与波段窄的频率相比，人们更易发现波段宽的音响源。基于此理论的警报器已被应用于急救车上。这种警报器也容纳了音频的升降，以指示人们上下楼。这种设备是得到英国核燃料组织的大笔资助才开发成功的。

完型填空：

第十篇Chicken Soup for the Soul: Comfort Food Fights Loneliness Mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, may be bad for your arteries, ____1____ according to a study inPsychological Science, they’re good for your heart and____2____.“comfort food1 ” and how it makes people feel.“For me____3____, food has always played a big role in my family”, says Jordan Troisi, a graduate student2 at the University of Buffalo3，and lead author4 on the study.The study came out of the research program of his co-author Shira Gabriel.It has____4____ non-human things that may affect human emotions.Some people reduce loneliness by bonding with their____5____ TV show, building virtual relationships with a pop song singer or looking at pictures of loved ones.Troisi and Gabriel wondered if comfort food could have the same effect____6____ making people think of their nearest and dearest5.In one experiment, in order to make____7____ feel lonely, the researchers had them write for six minutes about a fight with someone close to them.Others were given an emotionally neutral writing assignment.Then, some people in each____8____ wrote about the experience of eating a comfort food and others wrote about eating a new food.____9____ the researchers had participants____10____ questions about their levels of loneliness6.Writing about a fight with a close person made people feel lonely.But people who were generally____11____ in their relationships would feel less lonely by writing about a comfort food.“We have found that comfort foods are consistently associated with those close to us,” says Troisi.u Thinking about or consuming these foods later then serves as a reminder of those close others.” In ____12____ essays on comfort food, many people wrote about the____13____ of eating food with family and friends.In another experiment,____14____ chicken soup in the lab made people think more about relationships, but only if7 they considered chicken soup to be a comfort food.This was a question they had been asked long before the experiment, along with many other questions, so they wouldn’t remember it.Throughout everyone’s daily lives8 they experience stress, often associated with our ____15____ with others, “Troisi says.‘‘Comfort food can be an easy remedy for loneliness.词汇：

mashed / mæʃt / adj．被捣成糊浆的 macaroni / ,mækə'rəʊnɪ / n．通心粉 cheese / tʃiːz / n．奶酪 artery / 'ɑːtərɪ / n．动脉

assignment / ə'saɪnmənt / n．指定作业

reminder / rɪmaɪndə / n．起提醒作用的东西 remedy / remɪdɪ / n．治疗方法，药物 virtual / vɜːtjʊəl / adj．虚拟的

注释：

1．comfort food：爽心食品 2．graduate student：研究生

3．The University of Buffalo：布法罗大学，建校于1846年，位于水牛城（Buffalo City），属于纽约州立大学，因此称为纽约州立大学水牛城分校。4．lead author：首席作者

5．their nearest and dearest：他们最接近和最亲爱的人 6．levels of loneliness：孤独程度 7．only if：只有（在……情况下）

8．Throughout everyone’s daily lives：在每一个人的日常生活中。through有“贯穿”的意思。练习：

1．A but B if C though D while 2．A personality B movement C emotions D will 3．A privately B usefully C awfully D personally 4．A looked for B looked at C looked after D looked up 5．A favorite B trustful C boring D annoying 6．A with B on C by D at 7．A professors B participants C assistants D scientists 8．A group B class C section D part 9．A Previously B Formally C Initially D Finally 10．A remember B explain C rewrite D complete 11．A sad B secure C shy D angry 12．A your B our C his D their 13．A accident B harm C experience D model 14．A eating B exchanging C buying D keeping 15．A expressions B estimation C cooperation D connections 答案与题解：

1．A 本句前半句说土豆泥、通心粉等对血管有害（bad），后半句说这些食物对心脏有利（good）。很明显，前半句与后半句意思相反，所以要选转折连接词but加以连接。

2．C 根据常识判断，吃土豆泥不会对personality（性格）movement（移动）或will（意志力）产生有利影响。随后的文章，多处提到吃爽心食品（comfort food）有助于排解孤独感。所以，选emotions是正确的。

3．D 本题的答案是personally。For me personally（就我个人而言）与下文的意思很连贯。privately（私下地）、usefully（有用地）或awftilly（可怕地）与下文的意思搭不上，所以不会是答案。

4．B 本题的答案是looked at。“looked at non-human things”相当于“studied（研究）non-human things”，与上下文的意思很匹配。looked for（寻找）、looked after（照顾）和looked up（查找）与下文的意思搭配不上。

5．A 本句的意思是：人们为了排解孤独感，常常把自己和电视剧、流行歌曲歌手等等联系起来。选项中有四个形容词，应该选哪一个形容词去修饰TV shows呢？应该选褒义的形容词：favorite（喜爱的）或trustful（可信任的）。但对电视剧来说谈不上信任的问题。favorite最合理，是本题答案。

6．C 上一句说到，人们为了排解孤独感，常常把自己和喜爱的电视剧、流行歌曲歌手等联系起来。于是Troisi和Gabriel想，通过吃爽心食品让他们想起亲近的人，是不是也能产生同样的排解孤独感的效果呢？四个介词中只有by的词义是“通过”。其余三个介词在词义上都不合适。

7．B 选professors（教授）、assistants（助手）或scientists（科学家）不合常理，科学家选实验对象时不会选他们。participants（参与者）是本题的答案。

8．A 本题应该选group，备每一组的参与者。用class（班级）、section（部门）或part（部分）在意义上显然都不合适。

9．D 本段叙述试验的几个步骤。第一步要一部分受试者描写与亲人的争斗，其他受试者写情感上中性的话题。第二步（文中用then加以连接）将上述两组受试者中的每一组再一分为二，一些人描写吃爽心食品的经历，另一些人描写吃新食品的经历。接下来应该是第三步了。从四个选项中寻找，只有Finally最合适，原来第三步就是最后一步了。

10．D 实验的最后一步是受试者被要求书面回答10个问题。complete是答案。要求他们remember（记住）、delete（删除）或rewrite（重写）questions都不合乎逻辑。

11．B 与亲近的人争吵会引发孤独感，但是，一般来说，人们的关系若是通常处于什么状态，通过写出他们吃爽心食品的经历会降低他们的孤独感呢？一定不会是sad，shy或angry，答案应该是secure（稳定的）。

12．D 修饰essays的所有格代词在人称与数上要与they一致，所以their是答案。

13．C “eating food with family and friends”是一种experience（经历），不会是一个accident（事故）、harm（危害）或model（样式）。很明显，experience是本题的答案。

14．A 文章中几次提到吃爽心食品有助于缓解孤独感，所以本题选eating是很自然的。其他三个选项，exchanging（交换）、buying（买）或keeping（保留）若填入句子中，与后面的宾语chicken soup in the lab连用，意思上说不通。

15．D 本题的答案是connections。其他三个选项在意思上都不合适。

第九篇Wonder Webs

Spider webs are more than homes, and they are ingenious traps.And the world’s best web spinner may be the Golden Orb Weaver spider.The female Orb Weaver spins a web of fibers thin enough to be invisible to insect prey, yet____1____ enough to snare a flying bird without breaking.The secret of the web’s strength? A type of super-resilient____2____ called dragline.When the female spider is ready to____3____ the web’s spokes and frame, she uses her legs to draw the airy thread out through a hollow nozzle in her belly.Dragline is not sticky, so the spider can race back and forth along____4____ to spin the web’s trademark spiral.Unlike some spiders that weave a new web every day, a Golden Orb Weaver____5____ her handiwork until it falls apart, sometimes not for two years1.The silky thread is five times stronger than steel by weight and absorbs the force of an impact three times better than Kevlar, a high-strength human-made____6____used in bullet-proof vests.And thanks to its high tensile strength, or the ability to resist breaking under the pulling force called tension, a single strand can stretch up to 40 percent longer than its original____7____and snap back as well as new.No human-made fiber even comes____8____.It is no____9____ manufacturers are clamoring for spider silk.In the consumer pipeline: high-performance fabrics for athletes and stockings that never run2.Think parachute cords and suspension bridge cables.A steady____10____ of spider silk would be worth billions of dollars — but how to produce it?

1．A flying bird飞入蜘蛛网时有股冲力，网线坚韧才能捕捉到它，所以选tough。本句中的without breaking也指示选tough。

2．B 英语中蜘蛛网丝是spider silk。见第三段、第四段分别出现的silky thread和spider silk。

3．D 本句说蜘蛛织网的机制和过程，所以选weave。而且，这种蜘蛛就叫Golden Orb Weaver。

4．C 从上下文判断，along之后接的是the dragline,其代词应为it。

5．D 本句说Golden Orb Weaver与某些种类的蜘蛛不同，它不用每天织新网，只要网不破，就能一直使用下去，有时一用两年，所以选reuses。

6．C 本句将Golden Orb Weaver蜘蛛网的牢度和张度与防弹衣材料Kevlar对比，说明该蜘蛛网坚韧的程度。填入的词应该是Kevlar的同位语，Kevlar是一种材料，所以选material。

7．B 除了上下文的意思要求填length之外，本句中的用词stretch和longer都指示要用length。

8．A come后面可接形容词。come close意为“接近”。come well，come open，come awake都能搭配，但意思与上下文不符。

9．C It is no wonder（that）是“不足为奇，十分自然”的意思。只有选wonder意思才连贯。

10．B 从意义上判断，a steady supply是正确的选择。shipment（运送）、run（运转）或exchange（交换）的意思与上下文配不上。

11．D 上下文的意思要求用“起作用”这个词，英语work在本句的词义是“起作用”。

12．C 下一句是以next开始的。有next，前面很可能有first之类表次序的词。

13．A 常识告诉我们，把dragline silk proteins分泌在milk里，才容易分离出来，所以选meat，lungs或muscle都是不合常理的。

14．B 在without之后要用any，—般不用some。英语不说without no...，many不能修饰help。

15．A 本题只能选as fast as。若选B、C或D，意思与上下文不符。

第六篇Car Thieves Could Be Stopped Remotely

Speeding off1 in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch2.But he is in a nasty3 surprise.The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer, and a radio signal from a control center miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine____1____ , he will not be able to start it again.For now, such devices____2____ only available for fleets of trucks4 and specialist vehicles used on construction sites.But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars5，and____3____ be available to ordinary cars in the UK____4____ two months.The idea goes like this.A control box fitted to the car incorporates6____5____ miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS7 satellite positioning receiver.____6____ the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine____7____ restarted.There are even plans for immobilizers____8____ shut down vehicles on the move8, though there are fears over the safety implications of such a system.In the UK, an array of9 technical fixes10 is already making____9____ harder for car thieves.“The pattern of vehicles crime has changed,” says Martyn Randall of Thatcham, a security research organization based in Berkshire11 that is funded in part____10____ the motor insurance industry.He says it would only take him a few minutes to____11____ a novice how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools12.But only if the car is more than 10 years old.Modern cars are a far tougher proposition13, as their engine management computer will not____12____ them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out14 by the iginition key.In the UK, technologies like this____13____ achieve a 31 per cent drop in vehicle-related crime15 since 1997.But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars.Often by getting hold of the owner’s keys in a burglary.In 2000, 12 per cent of vehicles stolen in the UK were

D specialist 答案与题解：

1.A 该段主要是说，如果车被盗，只要发出无线电信号，remote immobilizer就能使被盗车一旦停下就无法再启动。因此，应选择A。如选择B，switches the engine on(发动引擎)句子意思便不符合文章内容。C和D与switch不搭配。

2.D devices是复数形式，描述的也是目前的事情，所以应使用be的现在时复数形式are。

3.D 该句说，这种遥控技术很快就会开始一点一点地用于普通汽车。然后作者推断，在两个月后这种技术就能用于英国的汽车。A是错误选项，因为该句前面用了could表示委婉的推断，在此不会用can;B和C与意思不符，should也是表示推断。

4.C 从搭配上来看，可以选择B和C，但是从意思上来看，必须选择C。for two months：已经有两个月了;in two months：两个月后。不能选择A,因为不符合英语表达习惯。又如：They will graduate in one year.他们一年后毕业。

5.C 这里应该使用不定冠词，而且miniature cellphone后面的并列定语都使用不定冠词。不能选择an，因它后面的名词由辅音开头。

6.B 从语法结构来看，这里应选择引导状语从句的连词，其他选项都会造成结构错误。而且，If正符合句子的意思。

7.B prevent sth.(from)doing是固定用法，restart这里要用被动语态being restarted，所以应选择B。

8.C 从句子的结构来看，这里需要一个关系代词引导定语从句。关系代词的先行词immobilizers是物不是人，所以只能用that，不能用who。

9.A 在四个选项中，B、C和D显然不符合文章的意思。这里作者要表达的意思是：使……日子难过，所以应选择A。

10.C be funded是被动语态，空格后面是名词短语，从句子的意思来判断，这个名词短语是动作fund的执行者，是谓语动词动作逻辑上的主语，所以必须使用by来引导这个名词短语。

11.D 这个句子结构是：to take sb.time to do sth.。从意思上判断，句子的意思应该是：他说只要花几分钟就能教会一个新手如何偷盗汽车。所以，D是答案。use，inform和ask都不能与how to结构搭配。

12.B them后跟着to，所以首先排除A和C(let sb.do sth.)。句子的意思不允许选D。...will not allow them to start...：……不允许它们启动。

13.A 句子后面的时间状语由since引导，所以句子应该使用现在完成时。

14.D 从obstacle in the criminal’s way这个名词短语看出，应选择D，构成put obstacle in sb.’s way(给某人设置障碍)这种固定用法。

15.C 前面有go on the market，预期的人应该是customer。当然，specialist，doctor或lawyer也可以预期，但总不及customer那么自然。

译文：远程制止偷车贼

超速驾驶在偷来的汽车里，偷车贼以为自己大获全胜。但是他马上就会又惊又恼。车上已经被装了远程制动装置，一个几英里以外的控制中心发来的无线信号将确保盗贼一旦启动引擎，他就不能再次发动汽车了。目前，这种装置只用于卡车队或者用于建筑工地的特殊车辆上。但是远程制动技术很快就会逐步应用到普通汽车上。并且应该在两个月之内用在英国的普通汽车上。

计划是这样的。把一个集合有微型无绳电话，微量处理器，存储器以及全球定位系统的卫星接收器的控制盒子安装在汽车上。如果汽车被盗，一个被编码的无绳电话信号就会告诉这个装置停止车辆引擎控制系统来阻止弓I擎再次被启动。

甚至还有一些人主张计划将制动装置装在运行着的车辆上，可是这样一来人们就会担心这个系统的安全性。在英国，二系列的技术装置已经让盗车贼步履维艰了。玛丁兰多来自位于贝克郡的一个由汽车保险工业投资成立的名为撒策姆的安全研究机构，他说，“车辆盗窃的手法已经有所改变。”他还声称只要是10年以上的汽车，他就能用几样简单的工具在几分钟之内教会一个新手怎样偷车。

现代车却远没有这么简单，因为它们的引擎管理计算机装置只有接收到一个独一无二的由点火钥匙发送过来的身份密码才可以启动汽车。自1997年以来，在英国，技术人员已经利用此项技术帮助减少了31%的涉及车辆犯罪案。但是不死心的盗贼们却还在一直想方设法偷车。例如很多时候，他们在夜里盗走主人的汽车钥匙进而偷车。在2000年，英国12%的车辆被盗案是由于主人的钥匙被盗，这个数字比前一年增长了1倍。

远程控制的制动系统给盗贼设置了一个全新的障碍。包括撒策姆、公安部门、保险公司以及安全技术公司在内的一个群体已经为体系开发出了一些标准，它们将比顾客所预期的更早地被推广到市场上。

第七篇An Intelligent Car

Driving needs sharp eyes, keen ears, quick brain, and coordination between hands and the brain.Many human drivers have all ____1____ and can control a fast-moving car.But how does an intelligent car control itself?

There is a virtual driver1 in the smart car.This virtual driver1 has “eyes”, “brains”, “hands” and “feet”, too.The minicameras ____2____ each side of the car are his “eyes”, which observe the road conditions ahead of it.They watch the ____3____ to the car’s left and right.There is also a highly ____4____ driving system in the car.It is the built-in computer, which is the virtual driver’s “brain”.His “brain” calculates the speeds of ____5____ moving cars near it and analyzes

their positions.Basing on this information2, it chooses the right ____6____ for the intelligent car, and gives ____7____ to the “hands” and “feet” to act accordingly.In this way, the virtual driver controls his car.What is the virsual driver’s best advantage3? He reacts ____8____.The minicameras are ____9____ images continuously to the “brain.” It ____10____ the processing of the images within 100 milliseconds.However.the world’s best driver ____11____ needs one second to react.____12____, when he takes action, he needs one more second.The virtual driver is really wonderful.He can reduce the accident ____13____ considerably on expressways.In this case, can we let him have the wheel4 at any time and in any place? Experts ____14____ that we cannot do that5 just yet6.His ability to recognize things is still ____15____.He can now only drive an intelligent car on expressways.词汇：

coordination n.协调，协同 virtual adj.虚拟的 minicamera n.微型相机 accordingly adv.相应地 millisecond n.毫秒 expressway n.高速公路 注释：

1.virtual driver：虚拟驾驶员

2.Basing on this information：基于这些信息。Basing on this information是现在分词短语，用作状语。

3.best advantage：最大的优点

4.have the wheel：掌握方向盘，也就是“驾驶汽车”的意思。

5.that：that替代上一句的“let him have the wheel at any time and in any place”。

6.just yet：迄今还。yet意为“迄今还”，常用于否定句中。just修饰yet，起强调的作用。练习：

D rate 14.A warn

B suggest

C invite

D check 15.A unknown

B few

C untested

D limited 答案与题解：

1.A 第一句提到的是eyes，ears，brain等，指示代词应该用复数形式的these，不能选this

或that。选them也不对，因为all them不符合习惯用法，正确的说法是all of them。

2.D side前面要求用介词on。

3.B 选项B中traffic的意思是“流动的车辆”，是本题的答案。police(警察)、trucks(重型卡车)和buses(公共汽车)表达的意思都是路况的一部分，显然与现实不符。

4.C 从上下文判断，本句的意思应该是高度自动化的驾驶系统，所以答案是automatic。其余三个选项(mechanical机械的、movable可移动的、electronic电子的)表达的意思与上下文配不上。

5.B 从下文判断，本句说的是“其他流动的车辆”，所以要选用other。another意为“另一个”，each other和one another都是“互相”的意思，与上下文表达的意思相去甚远。

6.D 上下文的意思要求选path(路径)。line(线路)、lane(车道)和track(车辙)，意思虽与path接近，但是讲不通。

7.C 本句前半句说的是电脑选定了路径，接下来自然是“……给‘手’发出指令(instructions)，‘手’就做出相应的动作”。所以，C是答案。space，locations，time的词义与上下文的意思衔接不上。

8.A 通段讲的是虚拟驾驶员的反应速度，所以只能选quickly。

9.C bring是“带来”，take是“带走，接受(命令)”，send是“发送(命令)”，carry是“携带”。从上下文判断，应该是“...sending images continuously to the ‘brain’”。

10.B 前一句说的是微型摄像机将图像送入电脑，接下来的意思应该是电脑处理图像，完成处理图像所需的时间为100毫秒。根据上下文表达的意思，应该选B。

11.A 本句的起始词是However，表示本句的意思与上一句的意思形成对比。上一句说电脑完成图像处理只需100毫秒，第二句说，最好的驾驶员处理的时间要长得多，应该是at least rieeds one second。所以，A是答案。

12.C 上一句说，最好的驾驶员至少需要1秒钟的时间才能完成图像处理。本句进一步说，他做出动作还需1秒钟的时间，这两句的意思是层层深入，所以要选C。

13.D 根据上下文判断，此处要表达的应该是“事故率”。rate是“比率”，所以答案是D。count(计数)、amount(数量)、digit(0～9中任何一个阿拉伯数字)都不对。

14.A can we let him have the wheel at any time and in any place?”涉及交通安全、人命关天的问题，都谈不上什么“邀请(invite)”、“建议(suggest)”、“检查(check)”。所以，答案只能是warn(警告)。

15.D 本句是给出目前不能let smart car have the wheel at any time and in any place的原因。原因是它的能力limited(有限)。对smart car的能力一无所知(unknown)或是没有测试过 11

(untested)，显然与前文的意思不符。few只能与可数名词搭配，ability在本句中是不可数名词，所以few也不是答案。

译文：智能汽车

开车需要目光锐利，耳朵灵敏，反应敏捷和手脑间的协作。许多人类司机这些条件都具备，并可控制一辆急速行驶的汽车。但一辆智能车如何进行自控? 智能车中有一位虚拟驾驶员。这位司机同样有“眼”有“脑”有“手”有“脚”。车两侧的微型摄像头就是他的眼，负责观察车前方的路况。他们注意着车两侧的交通情况。车中也有高度自动化的驾驶系统。这就是内置的电脑，也就是虚拟司机的大脑。这个大脑计算出车近旁正在运动车辆的速度，并分析它们的位置。基于这些信息，它为智能车选择最佳路径，并给出指示以让手脚做出相应运动。通过这样的方式，虚拟司机就对车辆实行了控制。

虚拟司机的最大优点是什么?他的反应速度很快。微型摄像头不断向大脑发送图像数据。他完成图像处理的时间为100毫秒。然而，世界上最优秀的人类司机也至少需要1 秒钟的反应时间。当他作出行动时，又多需一秒。

虚拟司机的确很棒。在高速公路上，他可大大减少事故发生率。鉴于此，我们是否可以让他在任何时间任何地点都驾驶汽车呢?专家们警告说我们现在还不能这样做。智能 车辨别事物的能力还很有限。目前，这种车只能在高速公路上行驶。

Free Stains With Fast Food Could Neutrailze Heart Risk Fast food outlets could1 provide statin drugs free of charge so that customers can reduce the heart disease dangers of fatty food, researchers at Imperial College London2 suggest in a new study.Statins reduce the amount of unhealthy ―LDL‖ cholesterol3 in the blood.A wealth of trial data4 has proven them to be highly effective at lowering a person’s heart attack risk

In a paper published in the American Journal of Cardiology5, Dr Darrel Francis and colleagues calculate that the reduction in heart attack risk offered by a statin is.enough to offset the increase in heart attack risk from eating a cheeseburger and drinking a milkshake.Dr Francis, from the National Heart and Lung Institute at Imperial College London, who is the senior author of the study, said: ―Statins don’t cut out all of the unhealthy effects of cheeseburgers and French fries6.It’s better to avoid fatty food altogether.But we’ve worked out that in terms of your possibility of having a heart attack, taking a statin can reduce your risk to more or less the same degree as a fast food meal increases it.―

N’s ironic that people are free to take as many unhealthy condiments in fast food outlets as they like, but statins, which are beneficial to heart health, have to be prescribed.It makes sense7 to make risk-reducing statins available just as easily as the unhealthy condiments that are provided free of charge.It would cost less than 5 pence per customer —— not much different to a sachet of sugar8, ― Dr Francis said.When people engage in risky behaviours like driving or smoking, they’re encouraged to take measures that lower their risk, like wearing a seatbelt or choosing cigarettes with filters.Taking a stain is a rational way of lowering some of the risks of eating a fatty meal.“Liquefaction” Key to Much of Japanese Earthquake Damage The massive subduction zone1 earthquake in Japan caused a significant level of soil ―liquefaction‖2 that has surprised researchers with its widespread severity, a new analysis shows.We’ve seen localized3 examples of soil liquefaction as extreme as this before, but the distance and extent of damage in Japan were unusually severe,‖ said Scott Ashford, a professor of geotechnical engineering4 at Oregon State University5.―Entire structures were tilted and sinking into the sediments,‖ Ashford said.―The shifts in soil destroyed water, drain and gas pipelines6, crippling the utilities and Infrastructure these communities need to function.We saw some places that sank as much as four feet.‖

Some degree of soil liquefaction7 is common in almost any major earthquake.It’s a phenomenon in which soils soaked with water, particularly recent sediments or sand, can lose much of their strength and flow during an earthquake.This can allow structures to shift or sink or collapse.But most earthquakes are much shorter than the recent event in Japan, Ashford said.The length of the Japanese earthquake, as much as five minutes, may force researchers to reconsider the extent of liquefaction damage possibly occurring in situations such as this8.― With such a long-lasting earthquake, we saw how structures that might have been okay after 30 seconds just continued to sink and tilt as the shaking continued for several more minutes,‖ he said.―And it was clear that younger sediments, and especially areas built on recently filled ground, are much more vulnerable.‖

The data provided by analyzing the Japanese earthquake, researchers said, should make it possible to improve the understanding of this soil phenomenon and better prepare for it in the future.Ashford said it was critical for the team to collect the information quickly, before damage was removed in the recovery efforts9.There’s no doubt that we’ll learn things from what happened in Japan10 that11 will help us to reduce risks in other similar events,‖ Ashford said.―Future construction in some places may make more use of techniques known to reduce liquefaction, such as better compaction to make soils dense, or use of reinforcing stone columns.‖ Ashford pointed out that northern California have younger soils vulnerable to liquefaction – on the coast, near river deposits or in areas with filled ground.The ―young‖ sediments, in geologic terms, may be those deposited within the past 10,000 years or more.In Oregon, for instance, that describes much of downtown Portland, the Portland International Airport and other cities.Anything near a river and old flood plains is a suspect12, and the Oregon Department of Transportation has already concluded that 1100 bridges in the state are at risk from an earthquake.Fewer than 15 percent of them have been reinforced to prevent collapse.Japan has suffered tremendous losses in the March 11 earthquake, but Japanese construction standards helped prevent many buildings from collapse – even as they tilted and sank into the ground.Sharks Perform a Service for Earth’s Waters

It is hard to get people to think of sharks as anything but a deadly enemy1.They are thought to attack people frequently.But these fish2 perform a valuable service for earth’s waters and for human beings.Yet business and sport fishing3 are threatening their existence.Some sharks are at risk of disappearing from Earth.Warm weather may influence both fish and shark activity.Many fish swim near coastal areas because of their warm waters.Experts say sharks may follow the fish into the same areas,where people also swim.In fact, most sharks do not purposely charge at or bite humans.They are thought to mistake a person for a sea animal, such as a seal or sea lion.That is why people should not swim in the ocean when the sun goes down or comes up.Those are the times when sharks are looking for food.Experts also say that bright colors and shiny jewelry may cause sharks to attack.A shark has an extremely good sense of smell4.It can find small amounts of substances in water, such as blood, body liquids and chemicals produced by animals.These powerful senses help sharks find their food.Sharks eat fish, any other sharks, and plants that live in the ocean.Medical researchers want to learn more about the shark’s body defense and immune systems against disease.Researchers know that sharks recover quickly from injuries.They study the shark in hopes of finding a way to fight human disease.Sharks are important for the world’s oceans.They eat injured and diseased fish.Their hunting activities mean that the numbers of other fish in ocean waters do not become too great.This protects the plants and other forms of life that exist in the oceans.

Teaching and learning（综合B）

Many teachers believe that the responsibilities for learning lie with the student.If a long reading assignment is given, instructors expect students to be familiar with the information

in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or take an examination.The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades.Sometimes homework is returned with brief written comments but without a grade.Even if a grade is not given, the student is responsible for learning the material assigned.When research is assigned, the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with minimum guidance.It is the student's responsibility to find books, magazines, and articles in the library.Professors do not have the time to explain how a university library works;they expect students particularly graduate students to exhaust the reference sources in the library.Professors will help students who need it, but prefer that their students should not be too dependent on them.In the United Stats

professors have many other duties besides teaching，such as administrative or research work.Therefore, the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited.If a student has problems with classroom work , the student should either approach a professor during office hours or make an appointment.*第七篇

The Difference between Man and Computer（综合B）

What makes people different from computer programs? What is the missing element that our theories don’t yet account for? The answer is simple: People read newspaper stories for a reason: to learn more about what they are interested in.Computers, on the other hand，don't.In fact，computers don't even have interests;there is nothing in particular that they are trying to find out when they read.If a computer program is to be a model of story understanding, it should also read for a “purpose”.Of course, people have several goals that do not make sense to attribute to computers.One might read a restaurant guide in order to satisfy hunger or entertainment goals, or to find a good place to go for a business lunch.Computers do not get hungry, and computers do not have business lunches.However, these physiological and social goals give rise to several intellectual or cognitive goals.A goal to satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find information

about the name of a restaurant which serves the desired type of food，how expensive the restaurant is，the location of the restaurant, etc.These are goals to acquire information or knowledge, what we are calling learning goals.These goals can be held by computers too;a computer might

“want” to find out the location of a restaurant，and read a guide in order to do so in the same way as a person might.While such a goal would not arise out of hunger in the case of the computer，it might well arise out of the “goal” to learn more about restaurants.*第九篇

The First Bicycle（综合B）

The history of the bicycle goes back more than 200 years.In 1791，Count de Sivrac delighted onlookers in a park in Paris as he showed off his two-wheeled invention，a machine called the celeriferé.It was basically an enlarged version of a children’s toy which had been in use for many years.Sivrac's “celeriferé had a wooden frame，made in the shape of a horse，which was mounted on a wheel at either end.To ride it，you sat on a small seat，just like a modem bicycle，and pushed hard against the ground with your legs—there were no pedals.It was impossible to steer a celeriferé and it had no brakes，but despite these problems the invention very much appealed to the fashionable young men of Paris.Soon they were holding races up and down the streets.Minor injuries were common as riders attempted a final burst of speed.Controlling the machine was difficult，as the only way to change direction was to pull up the front of the ”celeriferé“ and turn it round while the front wheel was spinning in the air.”Celeriferés“ were not popular for long，however，as the combination of no springs，no steering and rough roads made riding them very uncomfortable.Even so，the wooden celeriferé was the origin of the modem bicycle.*第十篇

Working Mothers（综合B）

Carefully conducted researches that have followed the children of working mothers have not been able to show any long-term problems，compared with children whose mothers stayed at home.My personal view is that mothers should be allowed to work if they wish.Whether we like it or not，there are a number of mothers who just have to work.There are those who have invested such a big part of their lives in establishing a career that they cannot afford see it lost.Then there are many who must work out of pure economic necessity.Many mothers are not cut out to be full-time parents.After a few months at home with a much loved infant，they feel trapped and isolated.There are a number of options when it comes to choosing childcare.These range from child minders and nannies through to Granny or the kind lady across the street.In reality, however，many parents don't have any choice;they have to accept anything they can get.Be prepared!No matter how good the childcare may be，some children are going to protest wildly if they are left.This is a perfectly normal stage of child development.Babies separate well in the first six months，but soon after that they start to get a crush on Mum and close family members.Make sure that in the first week you allow plenty of time to help your child settle in.All children are different.Some are independent，while others are more attached to their mothers.Remember that if you want to do the best for your children，it's not the quantity of time you spend with them，it's the quality that matters.完形填空: 综合B级

答案与题解: 1.D

综合第一句的大意，只有 D 选项”信息“填在这里恰当，A 选项的意思是”提议，暗示“，B”语境，上下文“，C”摘要“。

2.B

此句大意为”理想的学生是为了学习而学习“，只有 ideal最符合要求，故选 B。

3.C

本文讲的是与学生学习相关的内容，A，B，D 均不合文意及句意，故排除。4.D 此处要区分几个介词的含义，be returned with 一般有”带着……回来“之意，此句意为 ”有时，被发回来的作业上只有简短的评价，并无分数“。be returned by 意为”被……带回来“，而 for，in 于此搭配不当，答案选 D。5.C be responsible for 是固定搭配，表示”对……负责任“。其他选项放在此处都不合上下文含意。

6.C 此句意思是”当一项研究课题被选定时，教授们期望学生积极去做“。A 和 D 不合题意，最大的干扰项 B 意思为”分配，分布“，一般指一个整体被分散给许多个体，与之相比，C 选项更为合适。

7.B 老师肯定希望学生能够在尽可能少的指导下完成研究。只有 B 选项意为”最小的“，为正确答案。8.D 首先排除 B 选项，因为此处需要一个关系副词充当宾语从句的状语，而 what 是关系代

词，之后要看整句的意思，教授们没有时间去给学生解释一个大学图书馆是怎样运作的。A 和 C 虽然符合语法要求，但放此处意思不通，故选 D。

9.A

A 选项意为”尤其“，B”本质上“，C”明显地“，D”很少地，难得“。此处强调毕业生，A 选项较为合适。

10.C

此句意为”教授们期望学生，尤其是研究生阅尽图书馆中的文献资源 “。A 意为”选集“，B 为”集合“，两者一般都指文学作品的”集合“，而此处是学术界的文献。C 与 D 选项都有”来源，源头“的意思，但 D 选项侧重于”起源，开端“，C 更侧重于”原始资料“，为正确答案。

11.D

根据下文意思，A和B 选项可直接排除，教授们肯定是喜欢学生不依赖他们，不是不喜欢。D 选项的含义比 C 选项更递进了一步，符合题意，故选D。12.A

dependent 是形容词，前面不能与 such，much 搭配，D 选项 more 放在此处构成比较级，但前文并无原级与之相比较，因此只剩下 A 为答案，此句意为”教授们愿意帮助那些需要帮助的学生，但更希望学生不要太过依赖他们“。13.D

此题重点在于区分三个有”除……之外“含义的介词。A 选项一般翻译成”而不是，并不是“，B 选项意为”除去……之外“，D 选项意为”除去……之外还……“，此句意思为”美国的教授除了教书之外还有许多其他的职责“，故 D 为答案。

14.B

根据上文含义，一个教授能花在学生身上的时间一定是有限的，A，C，D 不合题意，直接排除，B 选项为正确答案。

15.C

此题还是承接上文含义，正因为教授时间有限，因此学生若想与之沟通，定要等教授在学校的时候，或是提前约好。C 选项意为”接近，靠近“，为正确答案，其他选项意思与文意不符，A 为”问候“，B 为”使……厌恶“，D 为”依附，伴随，添加“。

”去了解他们所感兴趣的东西“，其他三个选项均为关系副词，不能充当从句中的宾语。3.B

此处选 even 加强语气，”事实上，电脑甚至都没有兴趣“。

4.A

computer program 是常见搭配，意为”电脑程序“，其他选项与句意不符，故排除。

5.B

make sense 是固定搭配，意思是”有道理, 合理, 能被理解“。整句的意思为”当然人也有目标，但这些目标若被归在电脑身上便不合逻辑了“。

6.C in order to 是固定搭配，表示目的，意为”为了……“，故选 C。

7.A

结合上下文我们得知，此处应填具有”寻找“含义的词，watch 没有此含义，首先被排除，C 选项后若加上 for，便符合文意，search 有”搜寻，查找“的含义，但一般指深人彻底地调查，只 有 A 选项 find 在含义和语气上都符合句意。8.C

从下一句便可找到答案为 C 选项，give rise to 意为”引起，导致，使发生“。

9.D

选择 D 意为”找到关于餐馆名字的信息“，其他选项放此处均不合适。

10.D

此处需填一个谓语动词，因此要搞清主语”餐馆“与宾语”食物“之间的关系，只有”餐馆供应食物“合乎逻辑，故答案为 serve。11.A

上文提到了种种人生理的、智力上的、认知的目标，因为饿得到了有关餐馆的信息，因而

此处要填”获取“，B，C，D 与文意不符。12.B

此空依然承接上文的意思，那些目标都是获取信息的目标，都是学习的目标,答案为 B 选项。

13.B

此处缺一个情态动词，阅读到后半句时便很容易选出答案，此处的 might 与后面 as a person might 相呼应，表示不确定的推测，意为”可能，也许“。

14.D

能与 way 搭配的介词一般只有 in，表示”以……方式“，此处的含义为”与一个人可能想要做事的方式相同“。

15.Aarise out of 是固定搭配，意为”起于……“，即使不知道短语的含义，看到后面又出现一次 arise out of，也应可以选出答案。

答案与题解:

1.A

根据句意，西夫拉克伯爵使公园里的观众都感到高兴，能表示“使……高兴”意思的只有 A 和 D，而 D 选项 overjoy 意思为“使……过度兴奋，狂喜”，感情色彩过于强烈，这里应填 delight“使……喜悦”。

2.D

一开始发明的自行车应该是个儿童玩具的扩大版，increased“ 增加的”，enormous“ 巨大的”，extended“延伸的”均不合题意。

3.A

此处有三个选项都可以与 in 搭配，in use“ 在使用中”，in operation“ 生效，运行中”，in service“服务中”，只有 in use 填入此空符合逻辑，故选择 A。4.B

最早的自行车是用木头支架做成马的形状，弄懂意思后答案一目了然，resemblance 意为 “相似，相似物”，appearance“外貌，外观”。

5.D

此处意思为“用脚使劲蹬地”，故选 hard。heavily 意为“沉重地，猛烈地”。6.B

四个选项都眼“地”有点关系，surface“ 表面”，ground“ 地面，土地”，earth“泥土，陆地”，floor“地板，地面”，比较之后，只有 ground 比较合适。

7.B

appeal to 意思为“吸引”，attract 本身就是及物动词“吸引”，后不需要加介词 to，take to意为“开始喜欢，开始从事”。

8.C

hold races 在这里是“举行赛跑”的意思，其他选项不合题意。

9.C

人们在最后冲刺的时候，受点小伤是很常见的。只有 wound 和 injury 有“受伤，伤害”的意思，wound 做名词一般指“伤口，受伤的地方”，injury 指“小伤”，为正确答案。

10.D

此处表示“最后猛一冲刺”，一定是速度很快，除了 B 选项之外的三个选项都有“速度” 之意，velocity“ 速率，速度”，为科学用语，pace“步调，步法”，speed“ 速度”，是常用词，故选D。

11.A

此处的意思是“改变方向”，并不是要改变路线，只有 A 选项符合题意。12.C

想要改变行车方向需要抬起车头在空中掉转，turn round 为惯用搭配，意为“旋转，掉转”，roll 和 revolve 本身就有“旋转”的意思，后面不需加 round。13.D

这四个选项都有“转圈”的意思，cycle“循环，骑自行车”，circle“旋转，环绕移动”，wind“缠绕，上发条”,spin“自旋，纺纱”，此处主语为 wheel，轮子在空中一定是“自旋”，因此选D。

14.C 四个选项都有“综合”的意思，mixture 表示 “混合，混合物”，link“ 连接，结合”，combination“结合，组合，联合”，union“联盟，联合”，全句意为“结合了没有弹簧、没有方向舵，以及遭遇不平整路段等问题，木制双轮车骑起来十分不舒服”，只有 C 选项的意思放在此处最恰当。

15.A

综合全文大意，我们得知法国人发明的木制双轮车便是现代自行车的始祖，A 选项符合题意。

答案与题解:

1.A

此处阐明作者的观点，只有view 能代表对某方面的“见解”或“观点”，其他选项只是单 纯的“想想、法”或是“决定”, 不合题意。

2.C

a number of 是固定搭配，修饰可数名词，表示数量上“很多”。3.A

can't afford to do sth.为惯用语，表示“负担不起……”。4.C

此题四个选项在语法上都能与前面的 out of 搭配，out of reason 意为“无理的,不合理的”，out of duty 与 out of task 意思是“出于责任，任务的”，out of necessity “有必要，出于.…...的必要，综合分析只有C选项填入此空较为合理。

5.B

固定搭配 be cut out for/be cut out to do sth.意为”适合于，天生就是做某事的料“，make out”理解，辨认出;亲热“，bring out”使显出;出版;生产“，只有 B 选项符合文意。

6.D

it comes to sth.为惯用说法，在这里意思是”涉及“，整句说的是”当涉及儿童托管时，有许多方式可供选择“，refer to 意为”指……而言“。

7.C across the street 意为”街对面“，其他选项的词搭配不当，故选 C。8.C 此处讨论在现实状况下，很多父母根本没有选择的余地。”在现实状况下“就是 in reality，此题容易误选 B，in fact 意为”事实上，实际上“，常常表示经过推论得出的结果，放在此处其实也不算错，但是完形填空不是让我们选出正确的答案，而是选出最合适的选项，故此题选 C。9.B

no matter +疑问词，表示”无论……“，此句意为”不管你选的托管方式有多好，一些孩子被留下时，都会激烈抗议“。

10.A

perfectly normal 为惯用说法，意思是”完全正常的“，其他选项虽说在语法上与逻辑上也不错，但 perfectly 更好些。

11.C

family members”家庭成员“，其他选项均不适合，C 为正确答案。

12.D

首先从逻辑上排除 A 和 B 选项，一定是留给孩子足够”多“的时间。C 选项 lots 后面若能加上介词 of 则构成修饰可数名字的短语，lots of”许多的“，原文中被修饰词 time 是不可数名词，只有 D 选项 plenty of 可以修饰不可数名词，表示”大量的“。

13.B

四个选项中除了 fond 与 of 搭配，意为”喜欢“之外，其他的选项都可与 to 搭配，be used to sth./doing”习惯于(做)某事“，be attached to”依附于，依恋于“，be keen to do sth.”急切，渴望“，此处孩子要”依恋于“母亲，因此 B 选项正确。

14.D

此处意为”为你的孩子做到最好“，一般用 do one' s best for，而不用 make one' s best，若想用 give，则是 give one' s best to，因此只有 D 选项符合要求。15.A

上半句的 quantity 已经对此题的答案做出了暗示，一定是”质量“ quality 与”数量" quantity 相对。

Crashed Cars to Text Message for Help

There is no good place to have a car crash--but some places are worse than others.In a foreign country, for instance, 51 to explain via cell-phone that you are upside down in a ditch when you cannot speak the local language can fatally delay the arrival of the emergency services.But an answer may be at hand.Researchers funded by the European Commission are beginning tests of a system called E-merge that 52 senses when a car has crashed and sends a text message telling emergency services in the local language that the accident has taken place.The system was 53 by ERTICO, a transport research organization based in Brussels, Belgium.Cars are fitted with a cell-phone-sized device attached 54 the underside of the dashboard which is activated by the same sensor that triggers the airbag in a crash.The device 55 a cell-phone circuit, a GPS positioning unit, and a microphone and loudspeaker.It registers the severity of the crash by 56 the deceleration data from the airbag's sensor, Using GPS information, it works out which country the car is in, and from this it determines 57 which language ot compose an alert message detailing precise location of the accident.The device then automatically makes a call to the local emergency services 58 If the car's occupants are conscious, they can communicate with the operator 59 the speaker and microphone.E-merge also transmits the vehicles make, model, color and license number, and its heading when it crashed, which in turn indicates on which side of a multi-lane highway it ended up.This 60 the emergency services find the vehicle as soon as they arrive on the scene, “We can waste a large 61 time searching for an incident,” says Jim Hammond, a(an)62 in vehicle technology at the Association of Chief Police Officers in the UK.Tests will begin soon with police car fleets in the UK.Trials have already started in Germany, Sweden, Spain, the Netherlands and Italy.In-car systems that summon the emergency services after a crash have 63 been fitted in some premium cars.ERTICO says that 64 EU states are willing to fund the necessary infrastructure;E-merge could be working by 2008.A study by French car maker Renault concluded that the system could save up to 6000 fo the 40,000 lives lost each year on Europe's roads, and prevent a similar number of serious in-juries.The Renault study estimates that fitting E-merge to every car in Europe would eventually save around 150 billion per 65 in terms of reduced costs to health services and insurance companies, and fewer lost working days.51 A try B tried C trying D having tried 52

A automatically B accidentally C tremendously D usually 53

A changed B located C developed D copied 54 A by B up C about D to 55

A car maker B policeman C doctor D operator 59 A via B near C by D beside 60

A assists B causes C makes D helps 61

A number of B deal of C amount of D volume of 62

A writer B reporter C expert D leader 63

A already B long ago C long before D shortly 64

A although B nevertheless C however D if 65 A city B year C person D country 参考答案: 51 C这个句子的主语、谓语和宾语结构是：trying to explain…＋can fatally delay＋the arrival of…。trying to explain…是动名词短语在句中充当主语。A和B都不符合语法要求，D也不是正确选项，因为句子的内容没有“已经试图解释……”的意思。52 A本句说的是研究人员在试验一种能自动感知车祸并向有关部门传送车祸信息的先进装置。从意思上判断，这里只能选A，其他三个选项都不符合句意。53 C从上下文判断，这套system指的是第二段的正在试验的车祸感知通报装置，所以选developed是正确的。其他三个选项都不符合句意。

D attached在这里是动词的过去分词作后置定语，修饰a cell-phone—sized device。be attached to：被连接在……上，在这里的意思是“被安装在……上”。55 D选项A的forms意思不对。选项B的is consisted of用法错误，consist of只用主动语态。选项C的composes of也是用法不对，compose of要用be composed of形式。D是正确答案。56 B这个句子说，装置通过读取来自气囊感应器的减速数据来记录翻车事故的严重性。By doing sth．的意思是“通过做……的方法。”read在这里的意思是：to obtain information读取资料。

B本题必须使用介词in。…it determines in which language to compose an alert message装置做出用什么语言来编写紧急信息的决定。再举一个例子来解释in的这种用法：The alert message is composed in Chinese．用中文来编写紧急信息。58 D从上下文的意思来看，装置自动打电话给接线员，然后接线员与车内人通话。所以应该选择D。

A via的意思是by means of(凭借)，后面往往跟名词，如：sent the letter via airmail。其他选都不符合句意。60 D从句子的结构看，不能选择A和B，因为它们的用法是：assist(cause)sth．or sb．To do sth．，而在这个句子里find之前没有动词不定式标志to。make sb．do的结构中不带to，但make的意思不符合句意。选项D的helps是答案，因为help的用法是help sb．(to)do。

C a large number of用来修饰可数名词，如“a large number of books”；deal常常和great连用，如：a great deal of time。a large(或great)amount of修饰不可数名词，所以C是正确选择。

C从上下文意思判断，只能选expert。

A根据句意和时态，应该选择A。shortly的意思是“很快”。long a9o必须与过去时一起使用，long before应该与过去完成时一起使用。

D选项A和B引导让步状语从句，不符合句子的意思；however不能引导从句；这里应该使用条件状语从句，所以D是正确选项。65 B选项在此意为：每一。save around 150 billion per year每年节约大约1，500亿欧元。从上下文意思判断，只能选year。
