英语四级改错练习题Some people, in all seriousness, say that humans will be living in space within the next hundred or so years. Planet Earth will be crowded, dirty and lack of resources. A sort of exodus [51] of mankind will begin.Spaceships will be assembled so that they revolve around the earth. Some may orbit around Mars. These space stations will be serviced by space buses. We saw the first space bus launch in [52] April 1981. This was ""Columbia"", it made several [53] orbits around the earth and then returned, landing on a huge dry lake bed in California. ""Columbia"" will be used again. Previous spaceships have been abandoned, only the nose being used to bring the crews back to earth.[54] Upon established, each space station will [55] generate its own atmosphere and have its own agriculture. It will need to rotation to provide [56] an artificial gravity; people will be forced inwards [57] from the centre by centrifugal force.The moon and Mars could become new sources of new materials. Driving through space will no [58] longer need Earth fuel - the energy would come from the sun. This energy would be converted from [59] electricity to work magnetic rockets.That all sounds quite fantastically but, with [60] the rapid development of modern technology, who knows about what the future holds?答案51. and lack of... short 52. bus launch in... launched 53. it made several... which 54. the crews back... crew 55. Upon established... once 56. to rotation to... rotate 57. forced inwards... outwards 58. space will no... would 59. converted from... into 60. quite fantastically but... fantastic。

改错: 历年全真试题及参考答案(00.1-06.12)00.1Until the very latest moment of his existence, manhas been bound to the planet on which he originated anddeveloped. Now he had the capability to leave that planet S1._______and move out into the universe to those worlds which hehas known previously only directly. Men have explored S2._______parts of the moon, put spaceships in orbit around anotherplanet and possibly within the decade will land into anotherS3._______planet and explore it. Can we be toobold as toS4._______suggest that we may be able to colonize other planetS5._______within the not - too - distant future ? Some have advocatedsuch a procedure as a solution to the populationproblem: ship the excess people off to the moon. Butwe must keep in head the billions of dollars we mightS6._______spend in carrying out the project. To maintain theearth's population at its present level, we would haveto blast off into space 7,500 people every hour ofevery day of the year.Why are we spending so littlemoney on spaceS7._______exploration ? Consider the greatneed for improvingS8._______many aspects of the global environment, one is surelyjustified in his concern for the money and resourcesthat they are poured into the space exploration efforts.S9._______But perhaps we should look at both sides of thecoin before arriving hasty conclusions.S10._______00.6When you start talking about good and bad mannersyou immediately start meetingdifficulties. Manypeople just cannot agree what they mean. We asked alady, who replied that she thought you could tell awell-mannered person on the way they occupied the S1._______space around them—for example, when such a personwalks down a street he or she is constantly unaware of S2._______others. Such people never bump into other people.However, a second person thought that this wasmore a question of civilized behavior as good manners. S3._______Instead, this other person told us a story, it heS4._______said was quite well known, about an American whohad been invited to an Arab meal at one of the countriesS5._______of the Middle East. The American hasn't beenS6._______told very much about the kind of food he mightexpect. If he had known about American food, heS7._______might have behaved better.Immediately before him was a very flat piece ofbread that looked, to him, very much as a napkin (餐巾).S8._______Picking it up, he put it into his collar, so that itfalls across his shirt. His Arab host, who had beenS9._______watching, said of nothing, but immediately copiedS10._______the action of his guest.And that, said this second person, was a fineexample of good manners.01.6More people die of tuberculosis (结核病) than of anyother disease caused by a single agent. This has probablybeen the case in quite a while. During the early stagesof S1. ________the industrial revolution, perhaps one in every seventh S2.________deaths in Europe's crowded cities were caused by the S3. ________ disease. From now on, though, western eyes, missing the S4. ________ global picture, saw the trouble going into decline. With occasional breaks for war, the rates of death andinfection in the Europe and America dropped steadily S5. ________through the 19th and 20th centuries. In the 1950s, the introduction of antibiotics (抗菌素) strengthened thetrend in rich countries, and the antibiotics were allowedto be imported to poor countries.Medicalresearchers S 6. ________declared victory and withdrew.They are wrong. In the mid-1980s the frequency of S7. ________ infections and deaths started to pick up again around theworld. Where tuberculosis vanished, it came back; in S8. ________ many places where it had never been away, it grew better. S9. ________The World Health Organization estimates that 1.7billion people (a third of the earth's population) sufferfrom tuberculosis. Even when the infection rate wasfalling, population growth kept the number of clinicalcases more or less constantly at 8 million a year. Around S10. ________3 million of those people died, nearly all of them in poor countries.02.1Sporting activities are essentially modified forms of huntingbehavior. Viewing biologically, the modern footballer is revealed as a S1.________member of a disguised hunting pack. His killing weapon has turned intoa harmless football and his prey into a goal-mouth. If his aim isinaccurate S2.________and he scores a goal, enjoys the hunter's triumph of killing hisprey. S3._________To understand how thistransformation has taken placewemust briefly look up at our ancient ancestors. They spent over aS4.________million year evolving asco-operative hunters. Theirvery survivalS5._______depended on success in thehunting-field. Under thispressure their wholeway of life, even if their bodies, became radically changed. They became S6.________chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey-killers.They co-operate as skillfulmale-group attackers.S7.________Then, about ten thousand years ago, when this immensely longS8.________formative period of hunting for food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life, were put to a new S9._______use-that of penning ( 把……关在圈中), controlling and domesticatingtheir prey. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. Therisks and uncertainties of farming were no longer essential for survival. S10._______02.6A great many cities are experiencing difficulties whichare nothing new in the history of cities, except in their scale.Some cities have lost their original purpose and have not foundnew one. And any large or rich city is going to attract poorS1._________immigrants, who flood in, filling with hopes of prosperityS2._________which are then often disappointing. There are backward townson the edge of Bombay or Brasilia, just as though there wereS3._________on the edge of seventeenth-century London or early nine-teenth-century Paris. This is new is the scale. DescriptionsS4._________written by eighteenth-century travelers of the poor of Mexico City, and the enormous contrasts that was to be found there,S5._________are very dissimilar to descriptions of Mexico City today -theS6._________poor can still be numbered in millions.The whole monstrous growth rests on economic prosperity,but behind it lies two myths: the myth of the city as aS7._________promised land, that attracts immigrants from rural povertyS8._________and brings it flooding into city centers, and the myth of theS9._________country as a Garden of Eden, which,a few generations late,S10._________sends them flooding out again to the suburbs.03.6The Seattle Times Company is one newspaper firm thathas recognized the need for change and done something aboutit. In the newspaper industry, papers must reflect the diversityof the communities to which they provide information.It must reflect that diversity with their news coverage or riskS1._______losing their readers' interest and their advertisers' support.Operating within Seattle, which has 20 percents racialS2.________minorities, the paper has put into place policies andprocedures for hiring and maintain a diverse workforce. TheS3._______underlying reason for the change is that for information to befair, appropriate, and subjective, it should be reported by theS4._________same kind of population that reads it.A diversity committee composed of reporters, editors, and photographers meets regularly to value the Seattle Times'S5.________content and to educate the rest of the newsroom staff aboutdiversity issues. In an addition, the paper instituted a contentS6.________audit(审查) that evaluates thefrequency and manner of representation of woman and people of color in photographs.S7._________Early audits showed that minorities were pictured far too infrequently and were pictured with a disproportionatenumber of negative articles. The audit results from S8.________improvement in the frequency of majority representation and S9.________their portrayal in neutral or positive situations. And, with a S10._______result, the Seattle Times has improved as a newspaper.The diversity training and content audits helped the SeattleTimes Company to win the PersonnelJournal Optimal Awardfor excellence in managing change.03.9"Home, sweet home" is a phrase that expresses an essential attitudein the United States. Whether the reality of life in the familyhouse is sweet or no sweet. The cherished ideal of home has great S1.________importance for many people.This ideal is a vital part of the American dream. This dream, dramatized in the history of nineteenth-century European settlers of theAmerican West, was to find a piece of place, build a house for one'sS2.________family, and started a farm. Thesesmall households were portraits of S3.________independence: the entirefamily--mother, father, children, evengrandparents—live in a small house and working together to supportS4.________each other. Anyone understood the life and death importance of family S5.________cooperation and hard work.Although most people in the United States no longer live on farms, but the ideal of home ownership is just as strong in the twentieth S6.________ century as it was in the nineteenth.When U.S, soldiers came home before World War II, forS7.________example, they dreamed of buyinghouses and starting families. But there S8.________was a tremendous boom in home building. The new houses, typically in the suburbs, were often small and more or less identical, but itS9.________satisfied a deep need. Many regarded the single-family house the basis of S10.________ their way of life.03.12Thomas Malthus published his "Essay on the Principle of Population" almost 200 years ago. Ever since then, forecastershave being warning that worldwide famine was just around the S1________next corner. The fast-growingpopulation's demand for food,they warned, would soon exceed their supply, leading to S2________widespread food shortages and starvation.But in reality, the world's total grain harvest has risensteadily over the years. Except for relative isolated trouble spots S3________like present-day Somalia, and occasional years of good harvests, S4________the world's food crisis has remained just around the corner. Most experts believe this can continue even as if the population S5________doubles by the mid-21st century, although feeding 10 billionpeople will not be easy for politics,economic and environmental S6________reasons. Optimists point to concrete examples of continued improvements in yield. In Africa, by instance, improved seed, S7________more fertilizer and advanced growing practices have more than double corn and wheat yields in an experiment. Elsewhere, rice S8________experts in the Philippines are producing a plant with few stems S9_________and more seeds. There is no guarantee that plant breeders can continue to develop new, higher-yielding crop, but most researchers see their success to date as reason for hope. S10________04.6Culture refers to the social heritage of a people - thelearned patterns for thinking, feeling and acting that characterizea population or society, include the expression of these S1._______patterns in material things. Culture is compose of non-material S2._______culture -abstract creations like values, beliefs, customsand institutional arrangements and material culture -physical object like cooking pots, computers and bathtubs. S3._______In sum, culture reflects both the ideas we share or everythingS4._______we make. In ordinary speech, a person of culture isthe individual can speak another language - the person who S5._______is unfamiliar with the arts, music, literature, philosophy, or S6._______history. But to sociologists, to be human is to be cultured,because of culture is the common world of experience we S7._______share with other members of our group.Culture is essentially to our humanness. It provides a S8._______kind of map for relating to others. Consider how you findyour way about social life. How doyou know how to act in a classroom, or a department store, or toward a person whosmiles or laugh at you? S9._______Your culture supplies you by broad, standardized, S10._______ready-made answers for dealing with each of these situations. Therefore, if we know a persons culture, we can understandand even predict a good deal of his behavior.05.1The World Health Organization (WHO) says its ten-yearcampaign to remove leprosy (麻风病) as a world healthproblem has been successful. Doctor Brundtland, head of theWHO, says a number of leprosy cases around the world hasS1._______been cut of ninety percent during the past ten years. She says S2._______efforts are continuing to complete end the disease. S3._______Leprosy is caused by bacteria spread through liquid fromthe nose and mouth. The disease mainly effects the skin and S4._______nerves. However, if leprosy is not treated it can cause permanent damage for the skin, nerves, eyes, arms or legs. S5.________In 1999, an international campaign began to end leprosy. The WHO, governments ofcountries most affected by the disease, and several other groups are part of the campaign.This alliance guarantees that all leprosy patients, even they S6._______are poor, have a right to the most modern treatment.Doctor Brundtland says leprosy is no longer a diseasethat requires life-long treatments by medical experts. Instead, patients can take that is called a multi-drug therapy. This S7._______modern treatment will cure leprosy in 6 to 12 months,depend on the form of the disease. The treatment combines S8.________several drugs taken daily or once a month. The WHO hasgiven multi-drug therapy to patients freely for the last five S9.________years. The members of the alliance against leprosy plan totarget the countries which still threatened by leprosy. Among S10_______the estimated 600,000 victims around the world, the WHObelieves about 70% are in India. The disease also remains a problem in Africa and South America.05.12Every week hundreds of CVs(简历) land on our desks.We’ve seen it all: CVs printed on pink paper, CVs that are 10pages long and CVs with silly mistakes in first paragraph. AS1 ________good CV is your passport to an interview and ,ultimate , to S2________the job you want.Initial impressions are vital, and a badly presented CVcould mean acceptance, reg ardless of what’s in it. S3_______Here are a few ways to avoid end up on the reject pile. S4_______Print your CV on good-quality white paper.CVs with flowery backgrounds or pink paper willstand out upon all the wrong reasons.S5_______Get someone to check for spelling and grammaticalerrors, because a spell-checker will pick up every S6________mistake. CVs with errors will be rejected-it showsthat yo u don’t pay attention to detail.Restrict your self to one or two pages, andlisting any publications or referees on a separate sheet. S7_______If you are sending your CV electronically, check theformatting by sending it to yourself first. keep up S8_______the format simple.Do not send a photo unless specifically requested. Ifyou have to send on ,make sure it is one taking in aS9________professional setting, rather than a holiday snap.Getting the presentation right is just the first step. Whatabout the content? The Rule here is to keep it factual andtruthful-exaggerations usually get find out. And remember S10_______to tailor your CV to each different job.06.6Until recently, dyslexia and other reading problems werea mystery to most teachers and parents. As a result, too manykids passed through school without master the printed page. S1_______Some were treated as mentallydeficient; many were left functionally illiterate(文盲的), unable to ever meet their potential. But in the last several years, there’s been arevolution in that we’ve learned about reading and dyslexia. S2_______Scientists are using a variety of new imaging techniques towatch the brain at work. Their experiments have shown that reading disorders are most likely the result of what is, in an effect, S3_______faulty writing in the brain-not lazy, stupidity or a poor home S4________environmen t. There’s also convincing evidence which dyslexia S5________is largely inherited. It is nowconsidered a chronic problemfor some kids, not just a “phase”. Scientists have alsodiscarded another old stereotype that almost all dyslexics areboys. Studies indicate that many girls are affecting as well-S6________and not getting help.At same time, educational researchers have come up S7________with innovative teaching strategies for kids who are havingtrouble learning to read. New screening tests are identifying children at risk before they get discouraged by year of S8________frustration and failure. And educators are trying to get the message to parents that theyshould be on the alert for thefirst signs of potential problems. It’s an urgent miss ion. Mass literacy is a relative new S9________social goal. A hundred years ago people didn’t need to begood readers in order to earn a living. But in the InformationAge, no one can get by with knowing how to read well and S10________understand increasingly complex material.06.12老六级The most important starting point for improving the understanding of science is undoubtedly an adequatescientific education at school. Public attitude towardsscience owe much the way science is taught in these S1________institutions. Today, school is what most people come into S2________contact with a formal instruction and explanation of sciencefor the first time, at least in a systematic way. It is at thispoint which the foundations are laid for an interest in science. S3________what is taught (and how) in this first encounter will largely determine an individual’s view of the subject in adult life. Understanding the original of the negative attitudes S4________towards science may help us to modify them. Most educationsystem neglect exploration, understanding and reflection. S5________Teachers in schools tend to present science as a collection of facts, often by more detail than necessary. As a result, S6________children memorize processes such as mathematical formulasor the periodic table, only to forget it shortly afterwards. The S7________task of learning facts and concepts, one at a time, makeslearning laborious, boring and efficient. Such a purely S8________empirical approach, which consists of observation anddescription, is also, in a sense, unscientific or incomplete.There is therefore a need for resources and methods ofteaching that facilitates a deep understanding of science in S9________an enjoyable way. Science should not only be ‘fun’ in thesame way as playing a video game, but ‘hard fun’----a deepfeeling of connection made possibly only by imaginative S10________engagement.06年12月新六级The National Endowment for the Arts recently releasedthe results of its “Reading at Risk” survey, which describedthe movement of the American public away from books and literature and toward televisionand electronic media.According to the survey, “reading is on the decline on every S1________region, within every ethnic group, and at every educational level.”The day the NEA report released, the U.S. House, in a tie S2________vote, upheld the government’s right to obtain bookstore andlibrary records under a provision of the USA Patriot Act. TheHouse proposal would have barred the federal governmentfrom demand library records, reading lists, book customer S3________lists and other material in terrorism and intelligence investigations. These two events are completely unrelated to, yet theyS4________echo each other in the message they send about the place ofbooks and reading in American culture. At the heartof the NEA survey is the belief in our democratic S5________system depends on leaders who can think critically, analyzetexts and writing clearly. All of these are skills promoted by S6________reading and discussing books and literature. At the same time, through a provision of the Patriot Act, the leaders of ourcountry are unconsciously sending the message that readingmay be connected to desirable activities that might S7________undermine our system of government rather than helping democracy flourish.Our culture’s decline in reading begin well before the S8________existence of the Patriot Act. During the 1980s’ culture wars,school systems across the country pulled some books fromlibrary shelves because its content was deemed by parents S9________and teachers to be inappropriate. Now what started in schools across the country is playing itself out on a nation stage andS10________is possibly having an impact on the reading habits of theAmerican public.参考答案:00.1S1. had→has S2.directly→indi rectlyS3. into→on S4. too→soS5.plant→planet s / worldsS6.head→mind S7.little→much S8.Consider→Co nsideringS9. they→/S10.

6级改错题试题
第一篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)Most studies suggest that when women and men do thesame job and have the experience, pay rates tend to besimilar. Most of the dollar differences stem from fact that -------71.women tend to be more recently employed and have more -------72.years on the job. Whether women who have started a careerwill attain pay equality with men rest on at least two factors. -------73.First, will most of them continue part time at their jobs after -------74.they have children? A break in their employment, or a decision -------75.to work part time, will slow its raises and promotionsbecause it would for men. Second, will male-dominated -------76.companies elevate women to higher-paid jobs at the different -------77.rate as they elevate men? On some fields, this had clearly not -------78.happened. Many men, for example, have committed their -------79.lives to teaching careers, yet relative few have become -------80.principals or headmasters.答案:71. from fact -> from the fact72. recently -> frequently73. rest -> rests74. part -> full75. its -> their76. because -> as77. different -> same78.

You may even have entered the shopjust to find shelters away a sudden shower. --72.Whatever the reasons, you can soon become totallyunaware of your surroundings. The desire to pickup a book with an attractive dust jacket is irresistible, even this method of selection ought --73. not to be followed, as you might end up with arather bored book. You soon become engrossed in --74. some book or other, and usually it is only muchlater that you realise you have spent far much --75. time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment -- without buying a book, of course.This opportunity to escape the realities ofeveryday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is impossible to do this. A music shop is very much --76. like a bookshop. You can wander round such placesto your heart's content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach to you with the inevitable --77. greeting: "Can I help you, Sir?" You needn't buy anything if you don't want. In a bookshop anassistant should remain the background until you --78. have finished browsing. Then, only then, are hisservices necessary.

In the late nineteen century, farm work and life --73.were not much changed from that they had been in old days. The --74.farmer aroused at dawn or before and had much work to do, with --75.his own muscles like his chief source of power. He used axes, --76.spades and other complicated tools. In his house cooking was done --77.in wood-burning stoves, and the kerosene lamp was the onlyimprovement on the candle. The family's recreation and social life chiefly consisted a drive in the wagon to the nearby small town or --78. village to transact some business as well as to chat with neighborswho had also come to town.The children attended a small elementary school (often ofjust one room) to that they had to walk every day, possibly for a --79. few miles.

Every normal person isexpert in the skill of pronouncing his own language, and --71--few people are even moderately proficient at pronouncingforeign languages. Now there are many reasons about this, --72-- some obvious, some perhaps not so obvious. But I suggestthat the fundamental reason why people in general do notspeak foreign languages very better than they do is that --73--they fail to grasp the true name of the problem of learningto pronounce, and consequently never set about tacklingit by the right way. Far too many people fail to realize --74--that pronounce a foreign language is a skill, one that --75--needs careful training of a special kind, and one thatcannot be acquired by just leaving it to take care of himself. --76--I think even teachers of language, while recognizing theimportance of a good accent, tend to neglect, in their practical teaching, the branch of study concerning with speaking the --77-- language. So the first point I want to make is that English pronunciation must be taught; the teacher may be prepared to --78-- devote some of the lesson time to this, and by his wholeattitude to the subject he should get the student to feelthat here is a matter worth of receiving his close attention. --79--So, there should be occasions where other aspects of English, --80--such as grammar or spelling, are allowed for the moment totake a secondary place.答案:71.and→but。
英语四六级考试改错题型透析及应试技巧英语四级词汇
一、常考典型错误1、一致性方面的错误1)主谓一致主谓不一致错误是CET-6综合改错题内容之一,主要表现为主语名词与谓语动词间隔较长,首尾不能相接,造成视觉上的混淆。
例:The president of the company,together with the workers, are planning a conference for the purpose of solving financial problems.句中主语的主词为单数名词“president”,介词短语“together with the workers”与主语无关,是插入成分,故谓语动词应用单数is。
2)名词单复数有时名词可以不用复数,但是在特定的句子中由于前面有明确的量词修饰,如many,several, a number of, a variety of等等,就要变成复数形式。
例:Computer,as we all know,has many possible use in different fields.句中名词use前的修饰语many是用来修饰复数名词的,所以use应改为uses。
3)代词与先行词一致代词的主要功能是指代已出现的名词、词组或一个意群,因此代词的出现必须有所指,而且形、数等必须与前面所代的部份相符。
这是代词改错的核心。
例:A knowledge of several languages is essential to other majors' study because without them one can read books only in translation.本句中without them指的是没有几门语言的知识。
them错指a knowledge of several languages,因为其中knowledge是中心词,所以要把them改为it。
2、时态、语态、虚拟语气1)时态错误在一篇结构完整、语义连续的短文中,时态的使用也应该连贯一致,但是英语表示时间时,主句和从句时态可能不一致,却仍表明完整正确的意思。

Lack of closure results from the 1.________ panicked feeling that you still have a million things todo.

A more effective way tocomplete the assignment is to divide the reading intosmaller goals by thinking each chapter as a separate 4.________ goal. Thus you experience success as you complete.each chapter.

idea that exercising for just10minutes a week may be enough to increase your lifespan is novel.It’s also somewhat27 ,since the federal physical activity guidelines recommend getting at least75minutes of vigorous exercise or150minutes of28 exercise each week.The study was based on data from more than88,000U.S.adults who29 in the National Health Interview Survey between1997and2008.Contrary to some research that has found an30 limit to the amount of exercise that is healthy,the researchers found that there was31 no limit to the longevity(长寿)benefits of exercise.Even the small group of people who got10times the amount of exercise recommended by the federal government had a46% lower32 of death than the least active group.Still,observational studies like this one cannot prove cause and

EatA.Earlier this year,scientists warned that one in six animal species could go extinct(灭绝的)due to climatechange.Could the same thing happen to our crops and other foodstuffs too?B.It’s clear that farmers in many parts of the world are going to find things harder in the coming decades.Last week,BBC Future explored one scientist’s efforts to help crops cope with the increased probability of droughts.By using the genes from resurrection(复活)plants,Jill Farrant of the University of Cape Town is exploring whether she can design crops to survive for much longer periods without water.C.But if we can’t find ways to protect other foods,will they survive climate change?Fortunately,there issome good news on this front.Despite alarmist headlines about“foods that are going extinct,”there is no evidence that major food types like beans,chocolate,wine,corn or wheat will cease to exist.D.But that doesn’t mean it’s all good news for future food.We will probably have to change where we growcertain crops,as some regions get too hot.The disadvantage,obviously,is that local farmers will suffer under this situation.And some people may struggle to get the same access to certain foods.“Even if overall food production may be unaffected,food security can still be impacted,”says Margaret Walsh,a scientist at the U.S.Department of Agriculture’s Climate Change Program Office.In other words,even if a certain food is still grown on some corner of the Earth,it doesn’t mean that everyone will continue to have the same degree of access as today.E.Overall,the yields of many foods,from staples to life-enhancing extras such as coffee and chocolate,willlikely be impacted by climate change too.How those decreases will be felt will depend on the degree of warming and the crop in question,but in general,“anything over about30°C is very bad for crops,”says Wolfram Schlenker,an associate professor of international and public affairs at Columbia University.For example,statistical studies that he and a colleague built of corn and soybean(大豆)production in the U.S.show a steep decline after crossing the30°C temperature threshold(临界点).F.In the U.S.—the world’s largest producer of corn and soybeans—farms can move north to some degree,Schlenker says.But eventually,yields will likely suffer because the soil north of Iowa declines in quality —a legacy of glacial(冰川的)expansion.Other studies,including studies of wheat in India and corn in Africa,also found that there is a threshold above which yields sharply decline:crops can adapt and move, but only to a point.“What’s common to all studies is the finding that extreme heat is damaging to crop growth,although exact cutoffs vary by crop,”Schlenker says.“If predictions for the end of the century are true,though,I think a lot of agricultural areas in the U.S.will see significant hits.”G.Under current conditions,about4%of the world’s croplands experience drought in any given year,but bythe end of the century those conditions are forecasted to jump to about18%per year.Some studies indicate that horticulture crops—generally,everything besides staples—may be impacted most severely, largely because they tend to be confined to a smaller geographic area.Researcher Andrew Jarvis and his colleagues found that80%of coffee-growing zones in Central America and Brazil could become unsuitable by2050,for example,while climate change will likely have“great impacts”on cocoa(可可粉) production in West Africa.“High quality chocolate will be less available in the future,and if you want it, you’ll have to pay a lot more for it,”Jarvis says.第4页,共9页H.This means that,for those who can afford it,some foods will simply cost them more in the future.But forpoorer people,those same price jumps will likely cause certain foods to go extinct from their diets.“The more you reduce,the shorter the supply,and the higher the price will jump,”Schlenker says.I.Another potential climate change-induced problem is our dependence on commodity crops—wheat,soybeans,corn and rice—which currently provide humanity with75%of its calories,either directly or indirectly through the animals we raise on those crops.Jarvis and his colleagues also found that,over the past five decades,the world has seen an increasing standardisation of diets;the foods we eat globally today are36%more similar than they were in1961.While this can be good news for the world’s poorest people who now consume more calories,protein and fat than in the past,homogeneity(同一性)and over-dependence on a handful of staples leaves us vulnerable to threats such as drought,disease and pests—all of which are predicted to worsen in many parts of the world as a result of climate change.J.There are ways we could soften the coming blow to the global food supply,however.Like Farrant’s work with resurrection crops,a number of companies,organisations and researchers are aiming to create drought-and temperature-resistant crops through genetic engineering and conventional breeding.For now, the jury is still out as to how successful those endeavours will be.“The people at Monsanto who I’ve talked to are much more optimistic that they’ll be able to engineer heat-tolerant crops,”Schlenker says.“On the other hand,scientists at the USDA who I’ve spoken with are much more cautious.”K.Until genetic engineering comes to fruition,other strategies might also help in some places,including applying more fertiliser,implementing better irrigation,using machinery that gets crops out of the field faster or installing storage facilities to delay spoilage.“Many places could benefit a great deal just by using technologies that already exist,”Walsh says.“General farm management can go a long way toward easing changes.”L.Finally,diversifying our diet away from heat-sensitive wheat,corn,rice and other crops could also help.“We’ve seen profound changes in the last decades in what we eat largely as a result of international trade, and I think that trend toward more diversification will continue,”Jarvis says.“Depending on a greater number of plant species creates a more vigorous and less risky food system—and one that provides a broader range of nutritional requirements.”36.One consequence of climate change is that some people may not have adequate access to certain foods.37.People around the world are eating foods more similar than what they used to eat.38.A recent news report talked about scientific efforts to help crops survive droughts through geneticengineering.39.It is predicted that climate change will affect the availability and price of quality chocolate.40.People wonder if certain crops and foodstuffs could disappear like some animal species due to climatechange.41.Although farms in the U.S.can move a bit northward,crop yields may decrease.42.One possible solution to the food security problem is diversification of diet.43.It remains unsettled whether the global food supply problem can be solved by creating heat-tolerant cropsthrough genetic engineering.44.Poor people may have to give up eating certain foods because of their high prices.45.A number of existing farming technologies could be used to reduce the negative effect of climate changeon food production.第5页,共9页。

请同学们踊跃讨论!希望对大家有帮助!The European Union had approved a number of geneticallymodified crops until late 1998. But growing public concernover its supposed environmental and health risks led several 1.EU countries to demand a moratorium (暂时禁止) on importsof any new GM produce. By late 1999 there were enough suchcountry to block any new approvals of GM produce. 2.Last year, America filed a complaint at the WTO about themoratorium, arguing that it was an illegal trade barrierbecause there is no scientific base for it. 3.As more studies have been completed on the effectsof GM crops, the greens’ case for them has weakened. 4.Much evidence has emerged of health risks from eating 5.them. And, overall, the studies have shown that theenvironmental effects on modified crops are not always 6.as serious as the greens claim. Nevertheless, environmentalistscontinue to find fault of such studies and argue that 7.they are inconclusive.While Americans seem happy enough to consume food madefrom GM crops, opinion polls continue to show that Europeanconsumers dislike the idea. Europeans seem be taking the attitude 8.which , since there remains the slightest possibility of adverse 9.consequences and since it is clear how they, as consumers, benefit 10.from GM crops, they would rather not run the risk.答案:1. its改为their;2. country改为countries;3. base 改为basis;4. for 改为 against;5. much 改为little;6. on 改为of;7. of 改with;8. seem后面加to;9. which 改为that;10. clear 改为unclear或者前面加not.解析:1. 本题考查了大家识别代词所指的能力,its 指代genetically modified crops(为复数), 所以应该改成their;2. such country是指前面要求暂停进口转基因农产品的某些欧盟国家, 所以应该改成复数;3. 此处意为:因为没有科学根据支持暂停(进口), it 指the moratorium; base 基础, 基地, 根据地;basis (for) 基础, 基本, 根据; 科学根据只能说scientific basis, 有的同学把base 后面的for 改为 on , 应该是受到了base on 这个短语的影响;4. the greens = the environmentalists 环保主义者。
