He looked down and was terrified to see a great white shark biting the front of his board. “I could have touched its eye with my elbow,” saysCraig. The shark had surfaced浮上了水面 so quietly that he hadnt heard a thing.克雷格. 杰斯正坐在他的冲浪板上估算着下一波浪离他还有多远，就在这时冲浪板不动了。他低头向水下看，惊悚的一幕出现了： 一条大白鲨正在撕咬冲浪板的前端。我的肘部可能都已经碰到了它的眼睛，克雷格谈道。原来，这条鲨鱼悄悄地浮上了水面，完全没让克雷格听到。 In his horror and confusion, he waved his arms and accidentally 偶然之间cut tow of his fingers on the sharks teeth. He then slid off the opposite side of his surfboard into the water. Then, with Craig in the water and blood flowing from his fingers, the five-meter-long shark simply swam away, disappearing into the water below.克雷格惊慌害怕，手足无措，但是偶然之间他被鲨鱼咬掉了两支手指，然后随着滑板翻了个个儿，他也掉进水里。就在那时，处于水中的克雷格两支手指鲜血直流，但这条五米长 的鲨鱼却径直游开，消失在深海之中。 Although sharks are often categorized 被认为as killers that hunt and eat as many humans as then can, this is factually inaccurate. Sharks very rarely kill humans. A person has a greater chance of being struck by lightning or drowning in a bath than of being killed by a shark. Only 74 people have been reported killed by great whites in the last century. But great white sharks can reach six meters in length and weigh 2200 kilograms or more. With frightening jaws that can hold up to 3000 teeth arranged in several rows, they could very easily kill and eat a helpless human in the water. Why is it, then, that most people survive attacks by great whites? Shark researchers are trying to comprehend the reasons that allow people to escape without being eaten.虽然鲨鱼常被认为是疯狂杀人的猎手，但事实上这是不准确的。鲨鱼很少猎杀人类。比起被鲨鱼杀死，人类更有可能被闪电击中或是淹死在浴缸中。在上个世纪，有报道的只有74人命丧鲨鱼之口。然而大白鲨可以长到6米长、2200公斤重或是更重。3000颗牙齿排成数排长在鲨鱼那可怕的血盆大口中，它们可以轻易杀死并吃掉无助的落水者。但为什么大多数人受到大白鲨攻击之后都能鲨口逃生呢？鲨鱼研究者们正在努力寻找使得人类鲨口脱险的原因。 The most common explanation is that great whites dont see well .It has been thought that they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up 组成a large part of their diet. There is reason to doubt this, however. Recent information shows that great whites can actually see very well. Also, when attacking seals, great whites shoot up to the surface and bite with great force. When approaching humans, however, they most often move in slowly and bite less hard. They soon discover that humans are not a high-fat meal.” They spit us out because were too bony多骨的,” says Aidan Martin, director of Reef Quest Center for Shark Research.最常用的解释是说大白鲨的视力不好。人们认为大白鲨会把人类错当成是海豹或是海狮，后两者是鲨鱼的主要食物来源。但是人类又找到了理由来质疑这一论断。最近的研究信息表明大白鲨视力不错。并且当大白鲨在攻击海豹时，它们会迅速窜上海面，用力撕咬。但当大白鲨在攻击人类时，它们在大多数情况下会慢慢浮上海面，撕咬的力度也轻得多。它们很快就会发现人类的肉不够肥。它们把我们吐出来是因为我们太瘦了，艾丹.马丁说道，他是鲨鱼研究暗礁搜索中心的领头人。 Shark researchers like Martin hypothesize that great whites are actually curious animals that like to investigate things. Its possible that they use their bite not only to kill and eat, but also to gather information. Although such an experience is unlucky for people like Craig Rogers, when sharks bite surfboards or other objects or people, they are likely just trying to learn what they are.诸如马丁这样的鲨鱼研究者们提出了这样一种假设：大白鲨实际上是一种好奇心很重的动物，它们喜欢探索新鲜事物。有可能它们撕咬物体不仅仅是为了猎杀和吃掉，也是为了搜集信息。虽然这种经历对于像克雷格罗杰斯这些人来说很不幸，但是当鲨鱼在撕咬冲浪板， 或是别的物体，甚至是人类时，很可能它们只是在尽量了解那到底是个什么东西。练习：1. After Craig Rogers fell into the water, the shark 3分 Craig掉进水里之后，鲨鱼A) bit his surfboard B) bit his fingersC) swam away D) attacked him答案与题解：1.C 选项A( 鲨鱼咬冲浪板)和B( 鲨鱼咬他的手指)两个选项发生在Craig 落水之前，故排除这两项。从第二段第三行可以得到如下信息：当Craig 落入水中，手指上的鲜血在水中散开之时，这条五米长的鲨鱼知自己游走了。此信息排除了选项D( 鲨鱼攻击他) 因此答案为C( 鲨鱼自己游走了) 。2. It is difficult for the author to understand why great whites 作者很难想象，大鲨鱼A) often let humans escapeB) kill humansC) have so many teethD) grow to six meters or more注解：文中并没有直接回答问题，只能靠推论。3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “make up”in line 2 of paragraph 4? 3分A) create. B) are.C) increase. D) depend upon.注解：只要查字典读懂一句话they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up 组成a large part of their diet.，6分可到手。4. The word their in line 2 of paragraph 4 means 3分 Their在第四段二行是什么意思A) peoples B) great whitesC) sea lions D) seals注解：只要查字典读懂一句话they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up 组成a large part of their diet.，6分可到手。5. What is the main idea of the forth paragraph？ 第四段是的中心是什么？A) Great whites eat low-fat，bony meals more slowly.B) Great whites see well enough to include seals，sea lions，and humans in their diet.C) We now know great whites dont mistake humans for other animals.D) There is reason to doubt that great whites see well enough to attack humans.注解：文中并没有直接回答问题。在用神表实在无法确定选项时，不得已瞎选时，可选选项中有today，this day，now 。词汇：scan vt.审视，细看，浏览 seal n. 海豹elbow n. 肘，肘部 reef n.礁，暗礁surface n. 表面 外表，vi. 浮出水面 quest n.搜索，寻求，追求drown vi.淹死，溺死答案与题解：1.C 选项A( 鲨鱼咬冲浪板)和B( 鲨鱼咬他的手指)两个选项发生在Craig 落水之前，故排除这两项。从第二段第三行可以得到如下信息：当Craig 落入水中，手指上的鲜血在水中散开之时，这条五米长的鲨鱼知自己游走了。此信息排除了选项D( 鲨鱼攻击他) 因此答案为C( 鲨鱼自己游走了) 。2.A 从第二段第一行我们可以看出：鲨鱼被人类视为杀手，这是一条常识，很容易理解，因此选项B(杀人)被排除。而选项C(有很多牙) 和D( 长到六米长或是更长) 只是对鲨鱼的简单描述，也属于常识；而且文中并未出现对它们的质疑，说明作者也默认了这两条常识。因此选项C 和D 也被排除。所以答案是A（常常让人类逃脱) 这在文中第三段得到了验证，第三段整段就是在说虽然鲨鱼可以轻松杀死人类，但是它们却很少杀人。第三段最后两行甚至提到就连鲨鱼研究者们都在尽力寻找人类屡屡能鲨口逃生的原因，这就更能证明选项A 是正确答案。3.B 本题要求读者根据上下文的语境猜测第四段第二行斜体标出的词组make up的意思。结合make up 词组前出现的单词seal和sea lion 以及它后面出现的词组a large part of their diet，通过常识我们可以猜出：海豹和海狮应该是鲨鱼的主要食物来源。比对四个选项，我们可以发现选项A(创造) 、选项C(增加) 和选项D（依靠)在意思上都说不通，代入原文无法构成有意义的一句话。因此只有选项B( 是)在意思上和make up 最为接近，代入原文也说得通。 在本文中，词组make up的意思为：组成，构成。4. B 本题要求读者根据 上下文的语境猜测第四段第二行斜体标出的单词their的意思。结合第四段前两行的内容，我们可以很容易推测出，在这里their指代的是the great whites( 大白鲨) 因此答案为B。5. C 本题要求读者总结出第四段的主要内容。第四段主要介绍的是：人们起初以大白鲨视力不好为由来解释人类为何屡屡鲨口脱险，但是最近的信息表明大白鲨的视力并不差，不会把人类误认为是海豹或海狮。大白鲨不吃人是由于它们觉得人类太瘦.没有海狮和海豹的肉那么肥。对比四个选项：选项A 略显片面.不是本段的主要内容，故排除。选项B 中提到大白鲨也把人类当作食物来源，这点是错误的，故排除B。 选项D中说的是人们开始怀疑这一论断的正确性，但是选项D的表述和文中的信息正好相反；人们现在开始怀疑的是“大白鲨由于视力不好才去攻击人类”这一论断，而不是“大白鲨由于视力很好才去攻击人类” 故排除 D。所以正确答案为C(我们现在知道大白鲨不会把人类误以为是其他动物)。Shark鲨鱼 attack攻击!Craig Rogers was sitting on his surfboard, scanning the distance for his next wave, when his board suddenly stopped moving.

So begins an old manuscript in a library in Paris-the travel journal of Ibn Battuta.1325年6月13日，我离开了家乡丹吉尔，打算前往麦加朝圣。我告别了所有的朋友，如鸟儿离巢般，告别故土。这便是伊本白图泰游记的序言。这份旧的手稿存放在巴黎一家图书馆里。 Almost two centuries before Columbus, this young Moroccan set off for Mecca, returning home three decades later as one of historys great travelers. Driven by curiosity, he journeyed to remote corners of the Islamic world, traveling through 44 modern countries, three times as far as Marco Polo, little celebrated in the West, his name is well known among Arabs .In his hometown of Tangier, a square, a hotel, a caf ,a ferry boat ,and even a hamburger are named after him.这个年轻的摩洛哥人所处的年代比哥伦布的年代要早了几乎两个世纪，从他出发去麦加 算起，30年之后伊本白图泰才回到故乡，那时的他已经晋升到历史上伟大旅行家的行列。出于好奇，他游历了伊斯兰世界的各个角落，足迹遍布了 44座现代城市，总行程是马可波罗的3倍。虽然在西方社会不怎么有名，伊本白图泰在阿拉伯国家却家喻户晓。在伊本白图泰的故乡丹吉尔，有以他命名的广场、旅店、咖啡馆、渡船，甚至汉堡。IbnBattuta stayed in Mecca as a student for several years, but the urge to travel soon took over. In one adventure, he traveled to India seeking profitable employment with the Sultan of Delhi. On the way, he described his group being attacked in the open country by 80 men on foot, and two horsemen: “we fought.killing one of their horsemen and about twelve of the foot soldiers.I was hit by an arrow and my horse by another, but God in his grace preserved me. .We carried the heads of the slain to the castle of Abu Bakhar . and suspended them from the wall.” In Delhi, the sultan gave him the position of judge, based on his prior study at Mecca. But the sultan had an unpredictable character, and Ibn Battuta looked for an opportunity to leave. When the sultan offered to finance a trip to China, he agreed. Ibn Battuta set off in three ships, but misfortune struck while he was still on the shore. A sudden storm grounded and broke up two ships, scattering treasure and drowning many people and horses. As he watched, the third ship, with all his belongings and slaves -one carrying his child-was carried out to sea and never heard from again.伊本白图泰以学生的身份在麦加待了几年，但对于游历的渴望很快又让他重新出发。 有一次他来到印度，在德里的苏丹王那里谋到了一份收入颇丰的工作。他写到，在去德里的路上，他的队伍在野外被80名步兵和2位马夫攻击：我们进行了殊死搏斗杀死他们的一位马夫和差不多12名步兵我和马都中了箭，但是多谢真主的恩赐，最后我活了下来我们背着亡者的头颅前往阿布巴卡尔的城堡并把这些头颅挂在城墙上。 因为有在麦加的学习经历，德里的苏丹王给伊本白图泰安排了法官的工作。但是这位苏丹王脾气古怪，性情多变，所以伊本白图泰想借机逃走：当苏丹王提出要资助伊本白图泰去中国旅行时，他同意了。伊本白图泰将要乘着三艘船起航，但他还未离岸，不幸便降临了。一场突如其来的暴风雨摧毁了两艘船，吹走了财宝，许多船员和马匹都溺水而亡。他眼睁睁看着载着他的财物和奴隶的第三艘船被吹到了海上，从此便再无音讯。更糟的是，他的孩子也在这艘船上。 After a lifetime of incredible不可思议的 adventures冒险经历, Ibn Battuta was finally ordered by the Sultan of Morocco to return home to share his wisdom with the world. Fortunately, he consented and wrote a book that has been translated into numerous languages, allowing people everywhere to read about his unparalleled journeys.最后摩洛哥的苏丹王要求一生游历的伊本白图泰回家和世人分享他的智慧。幸运的是， 他同意了此事并写了本书。这本书已被翻译成了很多种语言，可以让世人了解他那无与伦比的旅行经历。练习：1. What is the passage mainly about? 本文中心是什么？A) Visitors to Mecca.B) The adventures of Ibn Battuta.C) Ibn Battutas character.D) Asian countries of the 14th century.中心题一般放在最后做。2. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “set off”出发 for in line 5?A) left to go to.B) discussed.C) arrived at.D) decided决定upon.Page 1161 出发 一个个查，本题不难3. The Sultan of Delhi gave Ibn Battuta a position of judge because 为什么苏丹给Ibn一个法官的职位A) the sultan needed a translator.B) Ibn Battuta had been a judge before.C) Ibn Battuta had studied in Mecca.D) Ibn Battuta had traveled to many countries.4. Which of the following would the writer of this passage most likely agree with? 下列的句子那一个与作者观点一致？A)Ibn Battutas journeys were very common for people of that time.B) Ibn Battutas stories are probably not true.C) Ibn Battutas journey was less important than Marco Polos.D) Ibn Battuta should be better known in the West today. 注解：该题为对错选择题，定位较难。得分困难。只能一句句读。在用神表实在无法确定选项时，不得已瞎选时，可选选项中有today，this day，now 。5. Why did Ibn Battuta finally return to his home？ 为什么Ibn最后回到家乡？A) He was tired of traveling.B) He didnt have any more money.C) He feared the Sultan of Delhi.D) The Sultan of Morocco asked him to return.答案与题解:1. B 根据本文的内容以及标题( The Travels of Ibn Battuta) ，我们可以很快排除选项A、C和D。所以答案为B（The adventures of Ibn Battuta) 。2. A 从第一行我们知道伊本白图泰的家乡是丹吉尔，所以第五行中set off词组后提到的麦加必然是伊本白图泰要去的城市，想必他是离开家乡前往麦加。因此，对比四个选项之后，我们不难发现正确答案为A(left to 90 to) 。3. C 在第三段第七行中，我们可以发现本题的答案：因为有在麦加的学习经历，德里的苏丹王给伊本白图泰安排了法官的工作。因此，对比四个选项之后，我们不难发现正确答案为C（Ibn Battuta had studied in Mecca）。4. D 选项A的意思是：在他那个时代的人看来，伊本白图泰的经历很普通。结合本文内容我们知道该选项必然是错误的，故排除A。选项B 的意思是：伊本白图泰的游历故事可能是虚构的。根据本文的内容我们可以知道伊本白图泰在历史上确有其人，他的游历经历也是真实的，甚至他的游历故事还被写成了书流传后世，所以该选项不对，故排除B。选项C 的意思是：伊本白图泰的游历没有马可波罗的游历重要。 根据本文，我们知道伊本白图泰的经历虽然在西方社会不如马可波罗那么有名，但他的故事在阿拉伯世界是家喻户晓。文中并没有出现对比他们俩的信息，所以我们不能武断地说谁的游历就一定比另一位的重要，故排除选项C。因此，本题正确答案为D(在现今的西方世界，伊本白图泰应该会比以前更有名)。5. D 在第四段前两行中，我们会发现：最后摩洛哥的苏丹王要求游历一生的伊本白图泰回家和世人分享他的智慧。 定位这条信息之后，我们再来对比四个选项就不难发现本题的正确答案为D( 摩洛哥的苏丹王要求他回家) 。第3篇The Travels of Ibn Battuta“I left Tangier, my birthplace, the 13th of June 1325 with the intention of making the pilgrimageto Mecca.to leave all my friends both female and male, to abandon my home as birds abandon their nests.
