从语境看选D，正打算放弃这个问题时突然萌生了一个念头。

14．A。

考查定语从句。

因此处关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作宾语，故此处只能用that, which或省略。

一般用Nice meeting you here.或Pleased to have met you here.所以选B。

17．C。

所以，只有C项符合情景。

(2009·龙岩毕业班质量检查)
If you travel to a new exhibit at the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers, you will have chances to see some meat－eating plants. Take bladderworts(狸藻类植物), a kind of such plant, for example. They appear so small and grow in a quiet pond. “But these are the fastest－known killers of the plant kingdom, and able to capture a small insect in 1/50 of a second using a trap door！”
Once the trap door closes on the victim, the enzymes(酶) similar to those in the human stomach slowly digest the insect. When dinner is over, the plant opens the trap door and is ready to trap again.
Meat－eating plants grow mostly in wet areas with soil that doesn’t offer much food value. In such conditions, these amazing plants have developed insect traps to get their nutritional needs over thousands of years. North America has more such plants than any other continents.
Generally speaking, the traps may have attractive appearance to fool the eye, like pitcher plants, which get their name because they look like beautiful pitchers(a container like a bottle) full of nectar(花蜜)．
The Asian pitcher plant, for example, has bright colors and an attractive half－closed lid. Curious insects are tempted to come close and take a sip, and then slide down the slippery(光滑的)
slope to their deaths.
Hair－like growths along the pitcher walls ensure that nothing can escape, and the digestive enzymes can get to work. A tiny insect can be digested in a few hours, but a fly takes a couple of days.
Some of these pitchers are large enough to hold two gallons. Meat－eating plants only eat people in science fiction movies, but sometimes a bird or other small animals will discover that a pitcher plant isn’t a good place to get a drink.
41．From the first paragraph, we learn that bladderworts can ______.
A. kill an insect in a second
B. capture an insect in 1/50 of a second
C. be found floating on a quiet lake
D. digest a fly in a few hours
42．If the trap door of a meat－eating plant is closed, the plant is ______.
A. fooling insects into taking a sip
B. producing nectar
C. tempting insects to come close
D. enjoying a dinner
43．Meat－eating plants can grow in wet and poor soil because they ______.
A. can get nutrition from animals
B. don’t need much food value
C. can make the most of such conditions
D. have developed digestive enzymes
44．What can be captured by meat－eating plants for food?
A. A child.
B. A dog.
C. A little bird.
D. A little fish.
[答案]

(2008·全国Ⅰ卷)
It is often necessary to release a fish, that is, set it free after catching, because it is too small, or you just don’t want to take it home to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) encourages fishermen who practice catch－and－release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so. The advice provided below will help make sure that the fish you release will survive (存活) to bite again another day.
—When catching a fish, play it quickly and keep the fish in the water as much as possible.
Don’t use a net in landing the fish and release it quickly to prevent it from dying.
—Hold the fish gently. Do not put your fingers in its eyes. Don’t wipe the scales (鱼鳞) off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease and reduce its chance of survival.
—Remove your hook (鱼钩) quickly. If the hook is too deep or hooked in the stomach, cut the line and leave the hook in. The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish.
—Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water. Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim.
—Do not hold fish in a bucket or some other containers and later decide to release it. If you are going to release a fish, do so right away.
With a little care and by following the suggestions given above, you can give the released fish a better chance of survival.
45．People sometimes set a fish free after catching it because they ______.
A. don’t want it to die
B. hope it will grow quickly
C. don’t want to have it as food
D. want to practice their fishing skills
46．Which of the following will probably make a fish ill?
A. Taking the hook off it.
B. Removing its scales.
C. Touching its eyes.
D. Holding it in your hand.
47．A proper way to release a fish is to ______.
A. move it in water till it can swim
B. take the hook out of its stomach
C. keep it in a bucket for some time
D. let it struggle a little in your hand
48．What is the purpose of the text?
A. To show how to enjoy fishing.
B. To persuade people to fish less often.
C. To encourage people to set fish free.
D. To give advice on how to release fish.
[答案]

细节理解题。

细节判断题。

从第四条建议“Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim.”可知答案，其余三种情况都是错误的做法。

48．D。

(2009·天津)
Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation(感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.
Psychologists have known that one person’s perception(感知) of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold”person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother”rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother”carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.
Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study have been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.
To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses(假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.
“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly，” says Bargh.
49．According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by ______.
A. the visitors to his office
B. the psychology lessons he has
C. his physical feeling of coldness
D. the things he has bought online。
