Ⅳ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
(2009·安徽)
A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below 16℃. Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate. Without the forest cover, these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere, warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.
In the past hundred years, humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources(资源): land for crops, wood for paper and other products, land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example, a lot of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.
There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, when people cut down trees, generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly, cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now, but in the long run it actually reduces the world’s wood supply.
Rainforests are often called the world’s drug store. More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However, fewer than 1% of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world’s shrinking rainforests.
41．Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they ______.
A. reflect more heat into the atmosphere
B. bring about high rainfall throughout the world
C. rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than 16℃
D. reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth
42．What does the word “this” underlined in the third paragraph refer to?
A. We will lose much more than we can gain.
B. Humans have begun destroying rainforests.
C. People have a strong desire for resources.
D. Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.
43．It can be inferred from the text that ______.
A. we can get enough resources without rainforests
B. there is great medicine potential in rainforests
C. we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained land
D. the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns
44．What might be the best title for the text?
A. How to Save Rainforests
B. How to Protect Nature
C. Rainforests and the Environment
D. Rainforests and Medical Development

(2008·辽宁卷) Far from the land of Antarctica(南极洲), a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod.
For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer.
Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fish’s blood and measured its freezing point.
The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of －1.88℃and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to －2.05℃. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice－salt mixture.
The scientists’ next research job was clear: Find out what in the fish’s blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein(蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point.
Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules(分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein, or AFGP.
49．What is the text mainly about?
A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctica.
B. A special fish living in freezing waters.
C. The ice shelf around Antarctica.
D. Protection of the Antarctic cod.
50．Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?
A. The seawater has a temperature of －l.88℃
B. It loves to live in the ice－salt mixture.
C. A special protein keeps it from freezing.
D. Its blood has a temperature lower than －2.05℃
51．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. A type of ice－salt mixture.
B. A newly found protein.
C. Fish blood.
D. Sugar molecule.
52．What does “glyco－”in the underlined word “glycoprotein”in the last paragraph mean?
A. sugar
B. ice
C. blood
D. molecule

(2009·安徽江南十校素质测试) Ever wonder why there are so many people polluting the earth? Ever say to yourself: Hey, I wish that I could do more to help the environment? Have you ever thought about trying to help the earth but never really did it? Well, here are some pretty easy and skillful ideas for that green－earth desire inside you.
●Turn off your computer. By leaving it on all day you are creating more CO2 than a regular passenger would, driving to and from work in one day.
●Ride your bike or carpool(合用汽车). Obviously, you are creating less CO2 which will help the ozone(臭氧)．
●Make a garden. Even simply grow some plants in your kitchen, which will help produce more oxygen while eating up some of that evil CO2.
●Buy local groceries. It creates less impact on the environment. Besides, you’re supporting your local farmers.
●Recycle. You had to see this coming. But you have no idea how much you are helping the environment by simply reusing a water bottle instead of buying a huge pack at the store.
●Don’t run the water while brushing. It saves you money and helps the water resources.
●Open the curtains. Natural light is much prettier and it will keep the energy usage down.
●Rechargeable batteries. You have no idea how much it takes to get rid of batteries. Do yourself a favor. Save some money and some energy.
53．The underlined word “impact” in the fourth suggestion means ______.
A. disadvantage
B. rubbish
C. effect
D. damage
54．If you don’t want to create more CO2, you may ______.
A. turn off your computer of open the curtains
B. turn off your computer or ride your bike or carpool
C. make a garden or open the curtains
D. use rechargeable batteries or make a garden

D. Conclusion.
56．The main idea of the passage is about ______.
A. the importance of environmental protection

[答案]
本文介绍了如何保护我们的环境，同时推荐了一些有效而又简单易行的方法。

53．C。

词义猜测题。

从“Buy local groceries...Besides, you’re supporting your local farmers.”可以推断，这里的impact意为“影响，作用”。

54．B。

事实细节题。

从第一点建议“Turn off your computer. By leaving it on all day you are creating more CO2...”和第二点建议“Ride your bike or carpool(合用汽车). Obviously, you are creating less CO2...”可以推知，这里选B项。

55．A。

推理判断题。

文章第一段的目的在于引起读者对这个问题的关注，最后一句话提出了本文的主要目的——告诉人们一些有效而又简单易行的保护环境的方法。

56．D。

主旨大意题。

从文章第一段最后一句中的“Well, here are some pretty easy and skillful ideas for that green－earth desire inside you.”可知应选D项。

(2009·湖北) When I was seven my father gave me a Timex, my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and haven’t had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago. Why? Because I don’t need once. I have a mobile phone and I’m always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices(装置) tell the time—which is why, if you look around, you’ll see lots of empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since 2007.
But while the wise have realized that they don’t need them, others—apparently including some distinguished men of our time—are spending total fortunes on them. Brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe and Breitling command shocking prices, up to ￡250,000 for a piece.
This is ridiculous. Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functions—but who needs them? How often do you dive to 300 metres into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole? So why pay that much of five years’ school fees for watches that allow you to do these things?
If justice were done, the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a five－pound note. Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch, with the aid of millions of pounds’worth of advertising, as a message about the man wearing it. Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains; a Patek Philippe is for one from a rich or noble family; a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planes across the world.
Watches are now classified as “investments”(投资). A 1994 Patek Philippe recently sold for nearly ￡350,000, while 1960s Rolexes have gone from ￡15,000 to ￡30,000 plus in a year. But a watch is not an investment. It’s a toy for self－satisfaction, a matter of fashion. Prices may keep going up—they’ve been rising for 15 years. But when fashion moves on, the owner of that ￡350,000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood Timex.
57．The sales of watches to young people have fallen because they ______.
A. have other devices to tell the time
B. think watches too expensive
C. prefer to wear an iPod
D. have no sense of time
58．It seems ridiculous to the writer that ______.
A. people dive 300 metres into the sea
B. expensive clothes sell better than cheap ones
C. cheap cars don’t run as fast as expensive ones
D. expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell
59．What can be learnt about Swiss watch industry from the passage?
A. It targets rich people as its potential customers.
B. It’s hard for the industry to beat its competitors.
C. It wastes a huge amount of money in advertising.
D. It’s easy for the industry to reinvent cheap watches.
60．Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Timex or Rolex?
B. My Childhood Timex
C. Watches? Not for Me!
D. Watches—a Valuable Collection
[答案]
作为计时工具的手表已经被同样有计时功能的手机、iPod等代替，但另一方面，社会显达却花大把的钱买名表。

手表作为计时工具的作用在逐渐转变。

57．A。

考查细节理解。

第一段说，现在人们使用的手机、iPod等装置有显示时间的功能，因此环顾四周，你看见的都是没戴手表的空手腕。

58．D。

考查细节理解。

从语境看，第三段开头的“这很荒谬”指前面说的，智者知道他们不需要表，可是在我们这个时代，很多显达，花大把的钱买名表，一块手表能卖到25万英镑。

59．A。

考查推理判断题。

从第四段对瑞士手表的某些品牌的叙述可知，这些名表瞄准的客户是那些有钱人。

他们戴着这些名表登山，开飞机环游世界。

60．C。

考查主旨大意。

本文介绍了关于手表的一种让人感觉荒诞的现象：普通百姓不戴手表，因为由于现代技术的发展，手机、iPod等都有显示时间的功能；另一方面，富人戴名表，这是财富和地位的象征。

C项形象地表达了本文的主题：从时尚的角度说，我不戴手表；从名表的角度看，我还是不戴手表，因为那是达官贵人的奢侈品。

[答案]
76．work→job或去掉work前的a。

work为不可数名词。

77．去掉Because或so。

because和so不能同时使用。

78．have→had。

此处用过去完成时，因为do some part－time work的动作发生在set up my own business这一动作之前。

79．month→months。

此处应用可数名词的复数形式。

80．that→which。

which引导一个非限制性定语从句。

81．before→when。

improve和realize两个动作是同时发生的。

82．在lower前面加不一冠词a。

at a lower price“以较低的价格”。

83．other→another。

another修饰单数名词。

84．√
85．去掉more，或more→much。

better已经是形容词的比较级形式了。

Yours truly，
Li Hua [参考答案]
Dear_Sir/_Madam，
Greetings_from_China!
I’m Li Hua, a student in Sichuan. I’ve been a panda lover since I was a child. About three years ago I was delighted to learn that Baiyun gave birth to her daughter Sulin and I’ve been watching her grow on your website. Now she’s going to be three. I’d like to wish her a happy birthday and to express my thanks to you for your hard work, because of which Sulin and her parents are living a happy and healthy life in the US.
By the way, could I have a photo of Sulin taken on her third birthday? Thank you very much in advance.
Yours_truly，
Li_Hua。
