Florida Atlantic University.(2020年浙江卷,阅读理解B)
答案及剖析:
1.is being addressed 句意:“自适应信号可以确保现有的交通需求得到满足。”佛罗里达大西洋大学的研究员亚历克斯·斯特瓦诺维奇说。由语境可知, address动作正在被进行,故要用现在进行时的被动语态。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Every year gray whales swim a 10,000 miles round-trip,from the cold waters near Alaska,down the coast of North America to the warm waters near Mexico,and back again.It is one of the longest migrations (迁徙) of any mammal.
All day,all summer long,in the cold waters near Alaska,gray whales eat and eat.Instead of teeth,gray whales have baleen (鲸须) they use to get food from ocean water.They get big mouthfuls of muck (淤泥) from the ocean floor,then push that muck right back out through their baleen.The mucky water flows through,but tiny animals get trapped in the baleen and licked up.
When the water starts to freeze,the whales begin their long trip south.They swim night and day,without stopping to eat or rest.During the long journey,migrating whales may push their heads out of the water to see where they are.
Two months later,the whales reach Mexico.Babies are born here in warm,shallow (浅的) waters called lagoons (濒海湖).Ocean lagoons have no food for the adults,but the babies are safer here than in the open seas.All winter the babies grow big and strong.
In spring first the dads and teenagers leave the lagoons,then the moms with babies.Migrating gray whales swim close to shore,especially moms with babies.The ice is melting up north,and it’s time for the hungry whales to make the long journey back to their summer feeding grounds.
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文,描写了哺乳动物中最长的迁徙,即灰鲸从靠近阿拉斯加区域一路向南,往温暖的墨西哥迁徙的过程,以及灰鲸是怎样捕食、分娩等内容。阅读本文有利于培养学生了解动物习性、保护野生动物的意识。
1.The underlined phrase “licked up” in Paragraph 2 probably means “ ”.
A.given up B.ended up
C.broken up D.eaten up
答案及剖析:
1.D 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。由上文“They get big mouthfuls of muck from the ocean floor,then push that muck right back out through their baleen.The mucky water flows through, but tiny animals get trapped in the baleen and licked up.”灰鲸从海底吞一大口淤泥,将淤泥从鲸须中吐出,泥水流出去,小的生物被困在鲸须中,转而被吃掉。故选D。
2.During their long journey to Mexico,gray whales .
A.always swim under the ocean
B.find food to supply their energy
C.face the colder and colder water
D.travel to the lagoons without a break
答案及剖析:
2.D 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。题干中关键词为Mexico,在原文第四段“Two months later,the whales reach Mexico.”开头找到,故而可将答案定位到上一段。第三段中的“They swim night and day,without stopping to eat or rest.”指出,在往墨西哥迁徙的长途中,灰鲸夜以继日,不做任何的停留和休息。故选D。
3.Where do mother gray whales give birth
A.In warm shallow waters near Mexico.
B.Off the coast of North America.
C.In the open seas near Mexico.
D.In cold waters near Alaska.
答案及剖析:
3.A 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。由文章第四段中的“Babies are born here in warm,shallow waters called lagoons.”可知,灰鲸宝宝出生在被称之为濒海湖的温暖的浅水区,故选A。
B
I don’t think I can recall a time when I wasn’t aware of the beauty of the ocean.Growing up in Australia,I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side.The first time I went to Halfmoon Bay,I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore.
For my 10th birthday,my sister and I were taken out to the Great Barrier Reef.There were fish in different colors,caves and layers of coral.They made such an impression on me.When I learned that only 1 percent of Australian’s Coral Sea was protected,I was shocked.Australian marine life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth.But sadly,only 45 percent of the world’s reefs are considered healthy.
This statistic is depressing,so it’s important for us to do everything to protect them.The hope that the Coral Sea remains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action.I’ve become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity,which aims to create the largest marine park in the world.It would serve as a place where the ocean’ s species will all have a safe place forever.
Together,Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be a part of the movement.Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy,who grew up sailing,admiring the beauty of the ocean,and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.

You need to dress warmly when you play in the snow.And to get around in deep snow,you might need snowshoes.
Animals need winter coats and snowshoes,too.
A musk ox (麝牛) wears two coats in winter.1. It keeps the inner coat of soft fur warm and dry.The furry undercoat falls off each spring and the ox grows a new one every winter.
A snowshoe rabbit changes its coat to match the season.2. In winter it grows white fur to match the snow.It even has fur on the bottoms of its feet.
3. A seal (海豹) has an extra layer under its fur coat,too.This thick layer of fat lies under the seal’s skin and is great at holding in heat,especially in the water.
The Arctic fox has fur on the bottoms of its feet and one of the warmest double coats of any animal.But on very cold and windy days,it adds something.4.

答案及剖析:
1.D 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据空格后一句“It keeps the inner coat of soft fur warm and dry.”可知,D项“外面的皮毛几乎垂到地面”符合语境。D项中的outer coat与空格后一句中的inner coat相呼应。
2.F 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据该空格前的“changes its coat to match the season”和该空格后的“In winter it grows white fur to match the snow.”可知,雪兔的皮毛为了和不同的季节保持协调而发生变化,因此F项介绍雪兔的皮毛在夏天时的情况符合语境。F项中的In summer和空格后一句中的In winter形成对比。
3.B 考查学生理解篇章段内句间衔接关系的能力。根据该空格后的“an extra layer under its fur coat,too”可知,B项“你在外套里面穿毛衣吗 ”符合语境。B项中的“a sweater under your coat”与空格后一句中的“an extra layer under its fur coat”相呼应。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers,for food,for sport,and simply because they were in the way.Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever.Hundreds more are on the danger list today.About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care Because we need animals.And because once they are gone,there will never be any more.
Animals are more than beautiful or interesting or a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature.Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.
For example,when farmers killed large numbers of hawks (鹰),the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by mice.Why Because hawks eat mice.With no hawks to keep down their numbers,the mice multiplied quickly.
Luckily,some people are working to help save the animals.Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem.And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.
Quite a few countries have passed laws.These laws forbid the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list.Slowly,the number of some animals in danger is growing.

4.B 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据第一段和第二段的描述可以看出,此前人们对于动物的保护并不关注,当然也并未意识到保护动物的重要性,故A项错误。通过对文章第四段的理解可以得知动物在人们的生活中起着重要作用,故B项正确。文中提到鹰的数量由于人类的捕杀而减少,但并非现在的情况,故可排除C项。D项中提到许多国家制定了法律来禁止对一切动物的捕杀,忽略了文中“on the danger list”这个说法,故该项是不对的。
B
People who have seen Trisha Seifried Woodall with her cats say that she has a magic touch.Most people don’t know anyone who can order a cat to jump on a table,sit for two minutes,and then jump to the floor and walk backward.
Ms.Seifried Woodall has taught her cats to do all these tricks—and many more.At her training center.Got Pet-ential,cats learn tricks for TV and magazine ads.Some of her cats have appeared on bags of cat food.
When Ms.Seifried Woodall gets a cat,she first learns what that cat likes and doesn’t like.“Some cats like to stay close to the ground,so I’ll teach them how to stand behind me,and walk with me,”she says. “Other cats,like high places,so they’ll learn how to jump on my bent knee and then safely leap to my shoulder.”
Ms.Seifried Woodall grew up in a family with many pets,and she was first paid to work with animals when she was 18.At a summer job at an amusement park,she learned how to train a few of the animals for performances.She continued to train and learn about animals for 20 years before starting her own animal-training center.
Ms.Seifried Woodall is proud of the skills her cats have learned,but she is also proud that her center’s cats are healthy and social.She believes her cats enjoy learning new tricks.
In Ms.Seifried Woodall’s experience,no breed(品种) of cat is easier to train than others.All of her cats came from shelters.They have become pets in her home.
Like most animal trainers,Ms.Seifried Woodall uses a reward system.Cats that are successful during training get food or a new toy.A cat that doesn’t enjoy eating or playing will probably not be interested in being trained.She never scolds(责骂) them.“Cats need a lot of encouragement when they are performing,”she says.“I say good job or that’s right several times during a single minute.”
