Afuels Barticles Cgoods Dproducts 答案Accoal,gas and oil均为“燃料( fuels)”。25Many houses were completely destroyed in the hurricane which struck the area last week_,thousands of people were homeless.AAs a result of BAs a consequenceCAs usual DAs for答案B句意:许多房子在上周袭击这个区域的飓风中被完全毁掉了,因此成千上万的人无家可归。as a result of“由于的原因”,其后要接宾语;as a consequence“因此”,表结果;as usual“通常,像往常一样”;as for“至于,就而言”。故B项符合句意。26Dont expect too much of his little son.After all,he is only a child of_intelligence among his group.Aaverage Bslight Cstrange Dsteady答案A考查形容词的语境意义。average表示“平均的;一般的”,“他只是一个有着平均智力的孩子”。slight轻微的;strange奇怪的;steady稳定的。27John couldnt_the terrible working conditions in that factory and resigned last week.Acatch up with Bput up withCkeep up with Dcome up with答案B考查动词短语的意义。put up with意为“忍受”,“无法忍受工厂里恶劣的工作环境而辞职”。keep/catch/come up with表示“赶上”,不符合语境。28The teacher finally found out_so many students made the same mistake.Awhy it was that Bwhy was it thatCwhy it was when Dwhy was it when答案A考查强调句。句中强调的是原因状语,当强调句中被强调的是时间、地点、原因或方式状语时,连接词要用that,而不能误用when,where,why或how。29How often do you eat out with your family?_,but usually once a week.AHave no idea BIt dependsCAs usual DGenerally答案B考查情景交际用语。It depends表示“不一定,视情况而定”等。A项意为“不知道”;C项意为“像往常一样”;D项意为“大体来说”。30Have you got any particular plans for the coming holiday?Yes._,Im going to visit some homes for the old in the city.AIf ever BIf busyCIf anything DIf possible答案D句意:你为即将到来的假期做了特别安排吗?是的。如果有可能的话,我将去市里的几家老人院看看。考查省略及语义辨析。ever曾经;有时候;busy忙碌的; anything任何事物;possible可能的。由对话情景判断应用possible。31When I_a good article in reading newspapers,I often want to cut and keep it.Acome about Bcome through Ccome to Dcome across 答案D句意:当我在报纸上看到一篇好文章时,就想将其剪下,并保留。come across偶遇;come about发生;come to达到;到达。 32Many experts_a lowprotein, highcarbon hydrate diet.Aprompt Badvocate Cinherent Dclaim答案B句意:许多专家提倡低蛋白、高碳水化合物的饮食。advocate意为“拥护;主张;提倡”;prompt 意为“促使;激励;鼓舞”;inherent是形容词,意为“内在的,固有的,本来就有的”;claim意为“声称;认领;自称”。33I would let you use my car in normal_,but today I need it.Acircumstances BphenomenaCconsequences Denvironments答案Ain normal circumstances“在正常情况下”,为固定词组。34As the result of the destroying of the forests,_rich land have turned into desert on the earth.Aa large number of Ba large quantity ofChuge quantities of Da great amount of答案C考查quantity修饰名词的用法。quantities of可以修饰可数和不可数名词,其后面的谓语动词都要用复数,由句中的have turned into可知C项正确。而a large quantity of和a great amount of 修饰名词作主语时谓语动词要用单数;a large number of只能修饰可数名词复数。35Most of them strongly advocated_the rules.Ato revise Bthat they revisedCrevising Dbeing revised答案Cadvocate后跟v.ing或从句,从句中谓语多用(should)原形,故排除A、B两项。D项为动名词的被动形式,与语境不符。第二节完形填空 (共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从3655各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。Scott and his companions were terribly disappointed.

And one of the key things that we measure is CO2 levels. And weve been able to record this increasing quantity of atmospheric CO2 into the ocean.”Scientists expected that as atmospheric CO2 increased, more and more of the carbon dioxide would be absorbed into the ocean, affecting the chemical balance of the sea water, with a potentially harmful impact on shellfish and coral in particular.“As carbon dioxide dissolves(溶解) in the water, or seawater in this case, it forms a weak acid, carbonic acid,”Dore explains. “And therefore, as the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere goes up and that exchanges with the surface seawater, it drives the PH down, and makes it more acidic.”The seawater Dore and his colleagues have analyzed confirms what the theory predicts.The effect was particularly striking at about 250 meters down, and again at 500 meters. Dore and his colleagues came up with two possible explanations. It could be that surface water picked up CO2 and then moved to those depths. Or there could be a biological explanation.“Its important to realize that the oceans are really becoming acidic. And it can have negative impacts on a whole variety of sea life from fish to coral. Its potentially catastrophic.”【语篇解读】 研究表明,空气中的二氧化碳也会影响海洋生命。56What can be the best title of the passage?ASea Life Facing DangerBClimate Change Affecting SeawaterCOceans Becoming More AcidicDScientist Researching Seawater答案A主旨大意题。文章为研究结果的报道,开篇点题。第一段中的“atmospheric CO2 is also affecting the ocean chemistry and potentially harming sea life”为主题句,下文围绕此展开说明,故A项正确。57With the increase of atmospheric CO2,_.Amore corals will appear in the seaBthe surface water is becoming warmerCthe chemical balance of the seawater is affectedDthe PH of the ocean out here has been increasing答案C细节理解题。从第四段内容可知C项正确。58Which of the following shows the process of the impact of atmospheric CO2 on sea life?aSea life is endangered.bCO2 goes into the surface water.cThe ocean chemistry is affected.dCO2decreases the pH and makes the seawater more acidic.eCO2 levels in the atmosphere go up. 答案B细节理解题。从第五段内容可知这个过程。 59Scientist Robert Dore came to the conclusion based on_.Ahis research and analysisBa major cause of climate changeCsome former theoryDthe expectation of other scientists答案A细节理解题。从第二段以及第六段可知A项正确。BMore than 134 countries across the world, including the UK, switched off their lights for an hour on Sunday to support action to create a sustainable(可持续的) future for the planet. Environmental charity World Wildlife Fund has organised the Earth Hour event which saw iconic buildings such as Big Ben, the BT Tower, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Edinburgh Castle, Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol, Stormont in Northern Ireland and Cardiffs Millennium Centre blacking_out for an hour.
