三、阅读理解
The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru's heartbreaking story may have one good result — other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived on the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Snow Hunter y a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.
However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.
Nauru's real troubles began in 1899 when a mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸盐) on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining for the phosphate.
A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines phosphate, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip mining totally destroyed the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem — their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was almost financially ruined. Experts say that it would take nearly $ 433, 600, 000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.
1. What might be the author's purpose of writing the text
A. To seek help for Nauru's problems.
B. To give a warning to other countries.
C. To show the importance of money.
D. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.
2. What did the ecological disaster in Nauru result from
A. The soil pollution. B. The phosphate overmining.

3. Which of the following is a cause of Nauru's financial problem
A. Its leaders misused the money.
B. It spent too much repairing the island.
C. Its phosphate mining cost much money.
D. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.
4. What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph
A. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.
B. The leaders will take the experts' words seriously.
C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans.
D. The phosphate will be mined further.

答案以及解析

2.答案:driving
解析:while driving=while they are driving。
3.答案:application
解析:考查名词。固定搭配: application form申请表。故填application,句意:按回车键,申请表格将显示在屏幕上。

解析:考查状语从句的省略。分析可知逗号前边是状语从句的省略形式,其完整形式为While he was playing with his children outdoors,省略了he was,故填playing。句意:和孩子们在户外玩的时候,这位父亲感到非常高兴。

四、
答案:①educated ②development ③its ④until ⑤the ⑥of ⑦visiting ⑧financial ⑨Activities ⑩to have

⑧考查形容词。空格在名词aid之前, 应填形容词做定语, financial财政的。
