In my brief time there, I came to love Scotland for its local culture, food and scenery.You might think, “Scotland isnt so different from the US; they still speak English there!” But when I stepped off the plane, I was greeted by a gruffvoiced (声音粗哑的) lady at customs. “Youll be ing from America, then?” She asked me, and I nodded. “But all of our guys are leaving Glasgow for the States!” Her thick Scottish English and sense of humor were obvious right away. I was not in the US any more, where customs agents never joke around.As I settled in at the university, I could feel myself getting used to hearing and even speaking the Scottish English of my customs agent. In classroom discussions, people would say “em” when they couldnt think of what to say instead of “um”, which was great fun. After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this. Strathclyde students stayed up late into the night, running around campus and shouting, “Go! Lats go, lats go, lats go (curse word) Glasgow!” Pretty soon, I was no longer saying “thanks” at the supermarket instead, I said “cheers”My Scottish friends drank whiskey and ate haggis (羊杂碎布丁). I drank plenty of whiskey but I was ashamed to admit that I wasnt brave enough to try haggis. Scottish bakeries usually sell bridies (肉馅饼). Add a cup of tea though I usually Americanized it by choosing coffee instead and a bridie makes for a delicious breakfast.Every time I took a train anywhere in Scotland, Id gaze out at the rolling hills and wonder if grass was greener than anywhere else in the world. Then Id reflect that theres a reason this country was the birthplace of golf.语篇解读:本文介绍了“我”在苏格兰学习期间的体验:居民友好,食物独特,景色优美,苏格兰英语与美式英语有区别。25What did the author think of the lady at customs?AImpolite. BFriendly.CSerious. DCalm.解析:选B推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Her thick Scottish English and sense of humor were obvious right away. I was not in the US any more, where customs agents never joke around”可知,作者认为她的苏格兰英语和幽默用得恰到好处,而美国的海关工作人员却从来不跟人开玩笑;据此可推断,作者认为这位在海关工作的女士是友好的,故B项正确。26Which of the following can replace the underlined word “chuckling” in Paragraph 3?ATalking loudly.Bparing.CLaughing quietly. DHearing.解析:选C词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“In classroom discussions, people would say . was great fun. After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this”并结合“Pretty soon, I . said cheers ”可推知,在教室讨论时,“我”发现他们的发音很有趣,几周后,“我”适应了他们的发音,所以不再偷笑。故画线词意为“偷笑”,C项正确。27What is the authors purpose of writing the text?ATo explain why Scotland is famous for golf.BTo promote the development of Scottish catering trade.CTo introduce different pronunciations of “em”and “um”DTo share his experiences in Scotland as an exchange student.解析:选D写作目的题。通读全文并结合第一段中的“In my brief time there, I came to love Scotland for its local culture, food and scenery”可知,本文旨在和读者分享“我”在苏格兰做交换生期间所感受到的苏格兰文化、美食和美景,故D项正确。C(xx宝鸡质检)Les Stockers life was altered in 1976, when he tripped over an injured hedgehog (刺猬) near his home. Unable to get help from a local veterinarian, who offered to put it to sleep, Stocker took the little animal home and tended to it himself. It was the beginning of a 40year journey that would transform Stockers ordinary life as an accountant.Although he lacked formal veterinary training, Stocker pioneered wildlife medical care at a time when traditional veterinary medicine focused on treating domesticated (驯养的) animals and pets. “An injured wild animal had nobody to look after it; nobody seemed to care,” Stocker once said. “It was just that feeling that made it quite easy for me to start taking them in.”Stocker and his wife, Sue, set up an animal rescue center in a garden shed behind their home in Buckinghamshire, where they began treating varieties of injured birds and animals including muntjac deer, foxes, swans, and owls dropped off by vets, cops, animal shelters, ordinary citizens, and the occasional celebrations.With few established wildlife treatment protocols at the time, Stocker learned by trial and error. He used superglue to repair bird beaks and bat wings. He developed slings to hold and protect injured deer. And he once stitched up a frogs tongue after it had been sliced by a weed trimmer, and then spent hours patiently helping it relearn how to use it to catch insects again. Trained vets were paid to operate and prescribe drugs, but Stocker learned how to provide emergency treatment and anesthetize (给施行麻醉) animals. For baby hedgehogs, he fashioned a plastic cap into an anesthesia mask.By 1983, Stocker was devoted to wildlife fulltime, establishing the charitable Wildlife Hospital Trust to fund a veterinary hospital in a converted threebedroom house. Through donations, the Trust eventually raised enough money to build a bigger facility on a sixacre site in 1991.His efforts were eventually honored by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and the New York Academy of Sciences.语篇解读:1976年莱斯斯托克被一只受伤的刺猬绊倒,求助被拒后他便开始悉心照顾它,并且从此踏上了治疗和照顾受伤的野生动物的人生之路;他还和妻子一起创办了野生动物援救中心。28Why did Les Stocker take care of the injured hedgehog?ABecause he was devoted to the protection of the wild animals.BBecause he failed to get help from a local veterinarian.CBecause he would like to transform his ordinary life.DBecause he wanted to make some changes to himself.解析:选B细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句“Unable to get help from a local veterinarian, who offered to put it to sleep, Stocker took the little animal home and tended to it himself.”可知,因为当地兽医没能提供帮助,莱斯斯托克只好把刺猬带回家自己照顾。29Les Stocker started wildlife medical care when _.Anobody seemed to care injured wild animalsBformal veterinary training was neededChe set up an animal rescue center in BuckinghamshireDtraditional veterinary medicine focused on treating varieties of animals and pets解析:选A细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容可知,斯托克开始对野生动物进行治疗是因为传统兽医仅关注治疗驯养的动物和宠物,而受伤的野生动物却无人照顾。故选A项。30Paragraph 4 is developed by _.Agiving examples Blisting suggestionsCmaking parison Ddoing experiments解析:选A写作手法题。第四段主要通过举例子来介绍斯托克如何治疗野生动物的,比如帮助修复鸟类的喙和青蛙的舌头等。故选A项。31Which of the following can be used to describe Les Stocker?AStubborn. BBrave.CCheerful. DResponsible.解析:选D推理判断题。通读全文不难看出,正是因为斯托克有责任心,他才会将受伤的动物带回家,自己不断地尝试来给予受伤动物适当的治疗,甚至和妻子一起创办野生动物援救中心。因此,用responsible(负责任的)描述莱斯斯托克最为恰当。D(xx南昌调研)Biologist Robert Pitman and his colleagues tracked orcas, or killer whales, and humpback whales off the coast of Western Australia. To research further, the scientists attached a tracker to a female orca, which allowed them to use satellites to monitor her movements. They followed her for six days. During that time, the orca attacked eight young humpback whales. During the seven attacks, the orca killed the humpback whale calf (幼兽) on three occasions.But the story doesnt end there. Humpback whales themselves are popularly thought to be large but generally, passive creatures. Pitmans study findings may let people think otherwise.When chased by orcas, humpback whales are known to try to outswim orcas. They are thought to do this at high speed so that the orcas cant keep up. On some occasions, the humpback whales sought out protection. They swam to shallow water, nearby reefs, or even under the researchers boats. These ways often reduced the attack. But at other times, the humpback whales decided to stay and fight.As the orcas approached, the mother humpback would sometimes move her calf to her side, or lift it out of the water using her head or flippers. She also blew huge breaths of air to disturb the orcas, and lunged or charged at them, slashing (劈) and slapping her tail and flippers. Perhaps most surprisingly, humpback whales also have adult “escorts (护卫队)” that try to protect calves that are not their own, joining the mother in defending the smaller whale. These escort whales either charged at the orcas, or placed themselves between the attackers and calves, slashing their tails and flippers.Despite the efforts of the mother whales and escorts, the orcas were more often than not successful in their attacks. But the presence of the escorts did reduce how many times a whale calf was killed.语篇解读:本文是说明文。文章主要讲的是科学家使用科学仪器来观察杀人鲸是如何追杀驼背鲸及后者是如何反击和保护幼小的驼背鲸的。32Whats the purpose of the scientists further research?ATo keep a record of whales living habits.BTo observe orcas hunting humpback whales.CTo see what lifeordeath battles whales may face.DTo find out the techniques orcas use when hunting.解析:选B细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“To research further . to use satellites to monitor her movements. They followed her for six days. During that time, the orca attacked eight young humpback whales .”可知,科学家进行进一步研究的目的是观察杀人鲸追杀驼背鲸的活动。故选B。33Why did the humpback whales swim to shallow water?ATo avoid being attacked.BTo hunt for food.CTo protect their young.DTo trick the chasers.解析:选A细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“On some occasions, the humpback whales sought out protection. They swam to shallow water, nearby reefs, or even under the researchers boats”可知,驼背鲸游至浅水区是出于自身的安全考虑,为了避免被攻击。故选A。34What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4?AWhy humpback whales fall victim to orcas.BHow humpback whales protect their calves.CThe great mother love of humpback whales.DSmaller humpback whales ways of surviving.解析:选B段落大意题。根据第四段的内容可知,本段主要讲的是在面对杀人鲸的攻击时,驼背鲸是如何进行反击来保护自己的幼崽的。故B项最能概括本段的大意。35What does Pitmans study find?AOrcas are successful in their attacks.BIts not easy for orcas to obtain food.CHumpback whales swim faster than orcas.DHumpback whales could be active animals.解析:选D推理判断题。第二段提到“Humpback whales themselves are popularly thought to be large but generally, passive creatures. Pitmans study findings may let people think otherwise”,驼背鲸一般被认为是大型的但是通常被动的生物,Pitman的研究发现可能会让人不这么认为。下文接着讲了面对杀人鲸的攻击时,驼背鲸所采取的一些应对方式,其中包含积极迎击。故选D。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)It is important to introduce yourself in a creative, memorable way to distinguish yourself from the crowd. _36_ Since being witty (言辞诙谐的) doesnt always e easily, try one of these creative introductions and separate yourself from the rest.Write your first or last name on a piece of paper. _37_ So if your name is Tom, you might say you are tireless, optimistic and mild._38_ Then say that you will do so in the words of your “best and worst critic” your mother. By breaking the ice in this way, you can go on in either a humorous or serious fashion.Introduce yourself silently, by drawing a picture of yourself on a large sheet of paper. _39_ In fact, in some groups, it may be better if you dont. Put a title at the top of your drawing, if you like, such as, “Hello! This is me.”Turn the traditional introduction upside down by describing yourself in exactly opposite terms of who you are. Have fun with this “back door approach”, and keep people guessing just how much you are exaggerating (夸张). _40_ Dont bother calling me tomorrow, because I will be hiding in a closet. Send text messages to my girlfriend while I drink a Bud Light on the job.AThis introduction requires you to be gifted in art.BFreely admit that you dont like talking about yourself.CIt makes no difference whether you possess artistic abilities.DFor example, I am probably the laziest person you will ever meet.EUse each letter as the first letter in an adjective that describes you.FBring in the surprise factor sometimes known as the shock factor.GAfter all, anybody can stand up and announce their name, business title and job responsibilities.36解析:选G由上文“用一种有创意的、让人记住的方法介绍你自己,使得你自己从人群中脱颖而出很重要”可知,下文具体说明这样做的原因,故G项符合语境。37解析:选E由下文所举的例子“So if your name is Tom, you might say you are tireless, optimistic and mild”可知E项符合语境。38解析:选B由下文暗示“Then say that you will do so in the words of your best and worst critic”“By breaking the ice in this way”可知B项符合语境。此处表示大方地承认你不喜欢谈论自己,然后说你会用妈妈对你所作的最好和最坏的评论谈论自己。39解析:选C由上文信息“drawing a picture of yourself”可知此处涉及绘画方面的内容,故C项“你是否有艺术才能不重要”符合语境。40解析:选D上文提到“describing yourself in exactly opposite terms of who you are”可知,下文具体举例说明了这种介绍方式,故D项符合语境。第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)One of the best things about traveling is experiencing different cultures.
