Ⅵ.概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

We already know that the underwater world is anything but silent.It is full of natural sounds produced by animals and by the motion of the atmosphere and water.But today’s researchers are increasingly concerned about the man-made noises under the water.They are confusing and even killing fish,whales and other marine animals.
Although hearing is important to all animals,the special qualities of the undersea world emphasize the use of sound.Underwater sound allows marine animals to gather information and communicate at great distances and from all directions.Loud underwater noises can cause damage to their hearing.And nowadays it’s becoming too much for marine wildlife.Evidence shows that whales will swim hundreds of
miles,rapidly change their depth,and even beach themselves to get away from the sounds of sonar.
You might think lower noises,typically caused by shipping or construction,do not pose a threat to marine animals.In fact,while they may not kill the animals directly,they can disturb their ability to locate food,find mates and avoid predators (掠食动物).Scientists looked at the effects of noise from small motorboats on coral-reef fish at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.In the lab,the fish had been trained to recognize the smell of three common predators as a threat.Some fish were trained in the presence of boat
noise,while the others had training with the natural sounds of the ocean.It turned out that the first group showed no fright reactions when exposed to the predator.However,the other group was scared.And under the influence of underwater noise on this group,only 20 percent of fish survived,compared to almost 70 percent of unexposed fish.
Humans rely on the ocean for its natural resources and biodiversity.The ocean also plays an important role in regulating(调节)temperatures.As Cousteau said,“For most of history,man has had to fight nature to survive;in this century he is beginning to realize that,in order to survive,he must protect it.”

Ⅳ.【语篇解读】圣诞节来临,Jake由于打架没有得到应得的橘子,当他伤心哭泣时,一个特殊的橘子送到了他的面前。

该故事体现了人们之间的团结与友爱。

1.D在圣诞节时Jake感觉到孤儿院稍微温暖一些、饭菜也稍微丰盛一些,不仅仅(more than)这些,圣诞节意味着每个人发个橘子。

2.B每年,每个孩子都收到(received)一个橘子作为圣诞礼物。

3.C丰盛的饭菜,诱人的橘子,这样的待遇在孤儿院里很少被提供(provided)。

4.A no other thing“没有其他的任何东西”。

5.A would表示过去习惯性的动作,可译为“总是”。

6.B橘子对孩子们来说是非常珍爱的礼物,因此舍不得吃,欣赏着(admiring)它。

7.C等着吃橘子的时刻(moment)。

由于橘子在孩子们的手里,随时都可以吃,所以不能用“机会”,更不能用“命令”。

8.D把橘子看得非常珍贵,舍不得吃,所以会一直把橘子保存“到”元旦。

until“到……为止”。

9.C看着橘子就会回想起圣诞节,因此把对圣诞节的回忆(memory)延伸到元旦。

appearance“外表”;performance“表演”;memory“记忆”;celebration“庆祝”。

10.A由于在圣诞节孩子们会得到一个橘子,所以圣诞节对孩子们来说是特别的(particular)日子。

11.D根据下文的rules和fight判断,应为break。

Jake因为打架而违反了孤儿院的规章制度。

12.D橘子对孩子们如此重要,而Jake“失去”了它,这正是他哭泣的原因。

13.D without warning“没有通知;没有告知”。

signal“信号”;mark“记号”。

14.B leave sb to do sth“留下某人做某事”。

15.A根据上文的“Not an ordinary orange”可知,此处是“not...but...”结构。

Ⅴ.【语篇解读】本文为记叙文,讲述了Kuang的一次横穿加拿大的旅行。
