2020年精编人教版英语资料活页作业(九).阅读理解AWhat do you know about the sea？We know that it looks very pretty when the sun is shining on it.We also know that it can be very rough when there is a strong wind.What other things do we know about it?The first thing to remember is that the sea is very big.When you look at the map of the world you will find there is more water than land.The sea covers three quarters of the world.The sea is also very deep in some places.It is not deep everywhere.Some parts of the sea are very shallow.But in some places the depth of the sea is very great.There is one spot，near Japan，where the sea is nearly 11 kilometres deep！The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometres high.If that mountain were put into the sea at that place，there would be 2 kilometres of water above it！What a deep place!If you have swum in the sea，you know that it is salty.You can taste the salt.Rivers，which flow into the sea，carry salt from the land into the sea.Some parts of the sea are saltier than other parts.There is one sea，called the Dead Sea，which is very salty.It is so salty that swimmers cannot sink！Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea!In most parts of the sea，there are plenty of fishes and plants.Some live near the top of the sea.Others live deep down.There are also millions of tiny living things that float in the sea.These floating things are so small that it is hard to see them.Many fish live by eating these.The sea can be very cold.Divers who go deep down in the sea know this.On the top the water may be warm.When the diver goes downwards，the sea becomes colder and colder.Another thing happens.When the diver goes deeper，the water above presses down on him.It squeezes him.Then the diver has to wear clothes made of metal.But he cannot go very deep.Some people who wanted to go very deep used a very strong diving ship！They went down to the deepest part of the sea in it.They went down to a depth of eleven kilometres!语篇解读：文章介绍了大海的面积、深度以及死海的一些情况。1When does the sea look beautiful?AWhen it is calm.BWhen the weather is fine.CWhen there is a strong wind.DWhen there is storm.解析：细节理解题。从第一段的“We know that it looks very pretty when the sun is shining on it.”可以看出B项正确。答案：B2Why does the author cite(引用)the sea somewhere in Japan?ATo show that the sea in some places is very deep.BTo show that the sea in some places is very rough.CTo show that its depth is 9 kilometres greater than the height of the highest mountain.DTo show that its depth is 11 kilometres greater than the height of the highest mountain.解析：推理判断题。从第三段的“But in some places the depth of the sea is very great.”和“What a deep place！”可以看出是强调海洋的深度。答案：A3Which of the following statements about the Dead Sea is NOT true?AThere are plenty of fishes in it.BIt is a safe place for swimmers.CIt is extremely salty.DNo fish can be found in it.解析：细节理解题。从第四段的“Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea！”可以看出A项是错误的。答案：A4Why cant people go very deep in the sea?ABecause the deepest part of the sea is very cold.BBecause the deepest part of the sea is very rough.CBecause the pressure of water at great depths is unendurable(无法忍受的)DBecause the deepest part of the sea is very salty.解析：推理判断题。由最后一段的“When the diver goes deeper，the water above presses down on him.It squeezes him.”可推知C项与题干吻合。答案：CBMany people believe sharks(鲨鱼)are dangerous and will always try to hurt or even kill humans.In fact,94 percent of the worlds 400 species are harmless to humans.A shark exhibition at the National Aquarium Baltimore，the US，proves this.Visitors can touch young sharks，see their eggs develop and watch a dozen different species swim smoothly around a huge tank.Most people fail to realize that shark attacks dont happen very often.Humans are most likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark.And to make this point clear，the museum has set up a special touching pool for children.There，kids can learn，from an early age，not to fear sharks.They can watch them develop inside their eggs and feel the skin of the older swimmers.“People fear what they dont know，”said Nancy Hotchkiss，an organizer of the exhibition，which runs until December.“Sharks have been around for 400 million years and play an important role in the oceans food chain.We want people to discover that sharks are amazing animals that need our respect and protection.”A shocking 100 million sharks are special foods killed around the world by humans.A study published in January in the US magazine Science found that almost all recorded shark species have fallen by half in the past 8 to 15 years.Thousands of sharks are hunted in Asia for special foods，such as shark fin(鱼翅)soup.And many others get caught in nets，while fishermen are hunting other fish.More than half of all sharks are smaller than one metre long.“Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean，”said Dave Schofield，the manager of the aquariums museum.“The fishermen throw them away like rubbish.”It is a worrying situation and some areas have taken measures in place to protect these special fish.语篇解读：文章通过讲述水族馆里举行的鲨鱼展让人们理解并保护鲨鱼。5The main purpose of the shark exhibition is to _.Ashow how sharks are born and develop in the oceanBlet people know more about sharks and protect themClet children learn not to fear sharks from an early ageDshow how shark species have fallen in the past few years解析：主旨大意题。纵观全文可知，文章就是让人们进一步了解鲨鱼并保护它们。答案：B6In the last but one paragraph，the underlined word“them”refers to _.Asmall sharksBfishing boatsCfishing netsDfishing methods解析：词义猜测题。根据上下文信息可知“them”指的是小鲨鱼。答案：A7What does Dave Schofield mean by saying “Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean”？ALarge sharks cannot be caught by some fishing methods.BOnly small sharks can be caught by some fishing methods.CThe ocean is being made cleaner by some fishing methods.DToo many sharks are being killed by some fishing methods.解析：细节理解题。由倒数第二段，可知D项正确。答案：D8It can be inferred from the article that _.Athe writer is surprised to know sharks always hurt peopleBthe writer is happy to know sharks are harmless to peopleCthe writer is worried about the present situation of shark speciesDthe writer is pleased to know the ocean is becoming much cleaner解析：推理判断题。由全文可知，作者的写作目的是保护鲨鱼，写作态度是对乱杀鲨鱼现状的担忧。故C项正确。答案：C.完形填空John Perry stood up and looked around again.The island had been a good place to find shells.But now how could he make the _1_ move out
