【答案】
17．B
18．B
19．C
20．A
【解析】
【原文】
Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them. Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源), we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible. In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example. Turn off the water taps when we finish washing. Turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed.
Waste can be stooped one day, if we do our best.

Mandara seemed to know something big was about to happen. So she let out a yell, caught hold of her 2-year-old daughter Kibibi and climbed up into a tree. She lives at the National Zoo in Washington D．C．.
And on Tuesday, August 23rd, witnesses said she seemed to sense the big earthquake that shook much of the East Coast before any humans knew what was going on. And she’s not the only one. In the moments before the quake, an orangutan (猩猩) let out a loud call and then climbed to the top of her shelter.
“It’s very different from their normal call,〞 said Brandie Smith, the zookeeper. “The lemurs (monkey like animals of Madagascar) will sound an alar m if they see or hear something highly unusual.〞
But you can’t see or hear an earthquake 15 minutes before it happens, can you? Maybe you can——if you’re an animal.
“Animals can hear above and below our range of hearing,〞 said Brandie Smith. “That’s part of their special abilities. They’re more sensitive to the environment, which is how they survive.〞
Primates weren’t the only animals that seemed to sense the quake before it happened. One of the elephants made a warning sound and a huge lizard (蜥蜴) ran quickly for cover. The flamingoes (a kind of birds) gathered before the quake and stayed together until the shaking stopped.
So what kind of vibrations (震动) were the animals picking up in the moments before the quake? Scientist Susan Hough said earthquakes produce two types of waves——a weak “P〞wave and then a much stronger “S〞wave. The “P〞 stands for “primary〞. And the “S〞stands for “secondary〞. She think s the “P〞wave might be what sets the animals off.
Not all the animals behaved unusually before the quake. For example, Smith said the zoo’s giant pandas didn’t jump up until the shaking actually began. But many of the other animals seemed to know something was coming before it happened. “I’m not surprised at all,〞 Smith said.
24．Why did Mandara act strangely one day?
A．Because it sensed something unusual would happen.
B．Because its daughter Kibibi was injured.
C．Because it heard an orangutan let out a loud call.
D．Because an earthquake had happened.
25．According to Brandie Smith,_____________.
A．many animals hearing is sharp
B．earthquakes produce two types of waves
C．primates usually gather together before a quake
D．humans can also develop the ability to sense a quake
26．Which animal seems unable to sense quake?
A．A giant panda. B．A flamingo.
C．A lemur. D．A lizard.
27．What is the best title for the passage?
A．How animals survive a quake
B．How animals differ from humans
C．How animals behave before a quake
D．How animals protect their young in a quake
【答案】
24．A
25．A
26．A
27．C
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。

这篇文章主要讲了在地震前动物们的表现，有些动物对地震敏感，而有些动物对地震没有觉察。

24．细节理解题。

根据第一段Mandara seemed to know something big was about to happen.可知一天，Mandara表现得很奇怪因为它感觉有一些不同寻常的事情要发生，选A。

25．推理判断题。

根据第四段“Animals can hear above and below our range of hearing,〞said Brandie Smith. “That’s part of their special abilities. They’re more sensitive to the environment, which is how they survive.〞可知Brandie Smith认为许多动物的听觉很敏锐，选A。

26．推理判断题。

根据最后一段Not all the animals behaved unusually before the quake. For example, Smith said the zoo’s giant pandas didn’t jump up until the shaking actually began.可知在地震之前，大熊猫并没有表现异常，由此推断出大熊猫不能感知地震，选A。

27．主旨大意题。

通过全文以与Not all the animals behaved unusually before the quake．可知，这篇文章主要讲了在地震前动物们的表现，有些动物对地震敏感，而有些动物对地震没有觉察，应当选C。

【点睛】
此题型考查了对文章段落或某一板块的理解概括能力。

先阅读问题，然后带着问题，再读全文，找出答题所需要的依据，完成阅读。

在词义与句义理解的根底上，结合上下文总结归纳某一段或几段的大意，对于把握文章主旨，分析全文结构都是至关重要的。

纵观历年高考试题，阅读理解试题一般有以下几种题型：一是直接回答who, whom, which, what, where, when, why, how等疑问词引起的细节问题；二是猜测词义题；三是推理判断题；四是综合概括题。

在做阅读理解题时，一定要仔细看完，看清楚试题要求再作答，特别要注意NOT，TRUE，EXCEPT等词。

有时，要先看题，后阅读文章，带着问题去读短文，可缩短阅读时间，效果也许会更好。

Jo Du was being helped into her beautiful white wedding dress this week when a tooth on the zipper (拉链) broke. It was Sunday in Guelph, Ontario, and
no tailor (裁缝) shop was open.
Jo Du didn't want to marry Earl Lee with pins (别针) in the back of her dress. But no one in the wedding party knew how to make the repair.

“Every weekend I take photos of people on the happiest days of their lives, and today one man who has seen some of the worst things our world has to offer came to help,〞said Lindsay Coulter, who posted photos and wrote on her Facebook page.
“I was so excited and so happy,〞 Ibrahim Halil Dudu said through a translator.“I like to help Canadian people from my heart.〞

I speak Spanish, because I was born in Spain. But then at primary school I had to learn Russian, and at high school, I was taught how to speak German. But I always wanted to speak English.
At last I came to America. Everywhere there was English! But even if I heard and felt its presence, it was hard for me to understand it and express myself in it. The few lessons of English that I had taken in Spain gave me only a chance to introduce myself, and I didn’t even know how to buy th ings and ask directions.
To talk to somebody, I went to a high school to take a course in English for foreigners. Disappointingly, it took almost an hour to get through the process of introducing ourselves. Everyone had to learn something that I had
already known from my books – the English alphabet (字母表) and numbers. I thought it was a waste of time, so I quit.
After a month, I tried again, but this time at college. After 15 minutes of introducing ourselves, a teacher gave us a lecture about the history of English. Then we were told that it was very important to know English in an English-speaking country. It took three hours for the teacher to tell us this. Again, I quit.
But I didn’t stop looking for something or someone that would help me to achieve my goal, and I found a tutor from Literacy Volunteers of America. But I still wasn’t happy with the classes. And when it was my turn to give a speech, I was happy to use all the long, complicated words that I had learned from one of my English books. When I ha d finished, my tutor said “Well, I think I have to learn English before coming to teach you!〞 This time, the tutor quit! 32．How many languages has the writer learned?
A．Two. B．Four.
C．Three. D．Five.
33．Why did the author leave the high school?
A．Because no one wanted to talk to him.
B．Because everyone had to learn the English alphabet and numbers. C．Because the lessons were too easy.
D．Because the courses were prepared for the natives.
34．Which of the following words can be used to describe the writer? A．happy. B．crazy.
C．serious. D．friendly.
35．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．The writer learnt many foreign languages.
B．The writer tested the teachers’ English abilities.
C．The writer researched different ways of learning English.
D．The writer tried to look for a proper way to learn English.
