Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Ears are for hearing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )－everyone knows that.But for a creature called the Cuvier's beaked whale，hearing starts in the throat，a new study found.
The observati ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on might help explain how all whales hear.The work might also help scientists understand how animals are affected by underwater sonar (声呐)．This sonar，used by some ships，sends out sound waves to locate underwater objects.
The Cuvier's ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) beaked whale is a so called toothed whale.Toothed whales dive deep into the ocean in search of food.As the whales hunt，they produce sounds that reach objects and then return to the whales.This allows the animals to“see”the shape，size，and location of objects，even when they're 1,000 meters under the sea，where it is totally dark.
To better underst ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and how the whale hears，researchers from San Diego State University in California took X rays of two Cuvier's beaked whales.The whales had died and washed up on the beach.
The Cranford and hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s colleagues used the images to make a computer model of a Cuvier's beaked whale's head.Then，they modeled the process of sound traveling through the head.www-2-1-cnjy-com
The researchers k ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )new that some sounds get to the ears of a toothed whale through a structure called“the window for sound”．Found on the lower jaw，this structure is very thin on the outside and has a large pad(垫) of fat on the inside.
When the researchers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and their computer model to work out how sound waves travel in the whale's head，they were surprised to find that sounds coming from right in front of the whale actually travel under the animal's jaw.From there，sound waves move through the throat，into a hole in the back of the jaw，and finally to the pad of fat near the animal's ears.
26．Toothed whales ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )________ to search for what they will eat under the sea.
A．measure the shape and size of their objects
B．watch deep into the sea
C．ask other whales to work together
D．give out signals and wait for them to return
27．Researchers took ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) X rays of two Cuvier's beaked whales in order to ________.
A．find out why they had died and washed up on the beach
B．make a computer model of a Cuvier's beaked whale's head
C．make sure that sound travels through the head
D．know more about the way the whale hears
28．Which of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) following describes the way taken by sound waves through a Cuvier's beaked whale
A．A hole in the back of the jaw→the ears→the jaw→the throat.
B．The jaw→the throat→a hole in the back of the jaw→the ears.
C．The throat→the jaw→the ears→a hole in the back of the jaw.
D．The ears→the throat→a hole in the back of the jaw→the jaw.
29．According to the passage we know that ________.
A．the throat is important to the Cuvier's beaked whale's hearing
B．ships send out sound waves like a Cuvier's beaked whale
C．the ears are actually useless to the Cuvier's beaked whale
D．the researchers haven't found how the whales hear
30．The passage is written mainly to ________.
A．show us observationally taken X rays
B．tell us that the Cuvier's beaked whale is a toothed whale
C．introduce a compu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ter model to work out how sound waves travel in whale's head
D．explain how the Cuvier's beaked whale hears
B
(2013·天津高考)Last night ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )'s meteor (流星) shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers.According to Gabe Rothschild，Emerald Valley's mayor，people gathered in the suburbs of the city，carrying heavy telescopes，expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky.What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city's lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.2-1-c-n-j-y
“My family was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) so frustrated，”admitted town resident Duane Cosby.“We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing，but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.”
Astronomers—scienti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sts who study stars and planets—have been complaining about this problem for decades.They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past.They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.
There is yet a popu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lation besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution.This population consists of birds，bats，frogs，snakes，etc.For example，outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的) birds.According to the International Dark Sky Association ，“100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.”
Countless more anima ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l casualties (伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting.Clearly，people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings，but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans，too.They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person's chances of getting cancer.2·1·c·n·j·y
Emerald Valley is only ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution.For years，Flagstaff，Arizona，has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory.Similar efforts have been made worldwide，and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them，so that other creatures can share the night.
31．It happened last night that ________.
A．the city's lights affected the meteor watching
B．the meteors flew past before being noticed
C．the city light show attracted many people
D．the meteor watching ended up a social outing
32．What do the astronomers complain about
A．Meteor showers occur less often than before.
B．Their observation equipment is in poor repair.
C．Light pollution has remained unsolved for years.
D．Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting.
33．What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4
A．Birds may take other migration paths.
B．Animals' living habits may change suddenly.
C．Varieties of animals will become sharply reduced.
D．Animals' survival is threatened by outdoor lighting.
34．Lighting regula ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tions in Flagstaff，Arizona are put into effect to ________.
A．lessen the chance of getting cancer
B．create an ideal observation condition
C．ensure citizens a good sleep at night
D．enable all creatures to live in harmony
35．What message does the author most want to give us www.21-cn-jy.com

“The noise made by ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )boats of whale watching tourists may be causing communication problems for the animals，”British researchers said last week.
Whale watching is a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )popular tourist activity in places where groups of killer whales(虎鲸)live.Every day，dozens of boats filled with tourists go to watch the beautiful animals.Unfortunately，the engines of the boats make a lot of noise，and that may be causing problems for the whales，according to a report in the US science magazine Nature.
The whales tr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )avel in groups, and communicate with each other through sonic (声波的) calls that some scientists refer to as singing.The sounds of the boat engines may be creating too much background noise for the whales to be able to hear each other.
The researchers li ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )stened to recordings of whale calls made between 15 and 25 years ago，before whale watching became popular.These were compared to more recent recordings.
They found that the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) animals have started to sing for longer than they used to，like a person shouting to a friend across a noisy room.
It is believed ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that the whales are trying to communicate hunting or breeding information.Scientists said that，if this is prevented，the future of the world's whale population could be in danger.
“Animals beco ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me slow in mind and repeat themselves in noisy areas，”said Volker Deecke，a Canadian biologist.“They have to say things twice or three times in order to be understood.”21·世纪*教育网
The killer whales stu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )died were living off the coast of northwestern America.The number of killer whales in this area has been falling for several years，but scientists are not sure why.
36．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 mean
A．Singing to others.
B．Producing young.
C．Caring about the old.
D．Hunting for food.
37．The passage mainly tells us ________.
A．the problems of whale watching
B．how killer whales communicate with each other
C．the reduced population of killer whales caused by whale watching
D．hearing problems of the killer whales caused by whale watching
38．Now in a noisy background，the killer whales have to ________.
A．sing in a louder voice
B．sing longer
C．travel in smaller groups
D．get nearer to each other
39．Scientists believe that killer whales sing to ________.
A．warn each other of dangers
B．keep in the same group
C．send useful information
D．enjoy themselves
40．From the passage，we can feel that the author is ________.
A．angry B．hopeful
C．worried D．disappointed
D
Sharks have been swimm ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing in the ocean for millions of years.They were on Earth even before dinosaurs! At the top of the world's ocean's food chain，sharks help keep the population of other ocean animals in balance.A large drop in the number of sharks can cause serious problems for all ocean animals.Saving sharks makes sense!
Many people are afraid ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of sharks.But most sharks are harmless.Only a small percentage of sharks are known to attack humans.It adapts (适应)well to new habitats and eats whatever is available.However，today，sharks are in trouble.Nearly one third of the 400 shark species are in danger of extinction，largely due to overfishing.Each year，tens of millions of sharks are caught and killed just for their fins(鳍)．The fins are used to make shark fin soup.
Humane Society ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) International(HSI)joined with the Jane Goodall Institute's Roots and Shoots program and Beijing Zoo to protect sharks.An exhibit at the zoo，“The Price Behind the Taste－Protect Sharks.Don't Eat Shark Fins”，was designed to tell people that shark finning is cruel and unnecessary.It's hoped that the activity will help put an end to the_practice.
Shark fin soup i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s also eaten in the United States.In fact，the numbers of some shark species in US waters have dropped 90 percent in the last 30 years.To_slow_the_fall，laws_against_the_sale_of_shark_fins_have_been_passed_in_several_states，including Hawaii，Oregon，Washington，and California.
It's hoped that with ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )our help，sharks will continue to swim in the ocean for many more millions of years.
41．What does the first paragraph mainly tell us
A．Ocean animals are at the top of the food chain.
B．Sharks play an important role in the ocean.
C．Sharks are an old species in the ocean.
D．Sharks are being caught and killed.
42．According to Paragraph 2，sharks are in trouble because ________.
A．they often attack humans
B．their food is being polluted
C．they are being caught for food
D．their habitat is being destroyed
43．The underlined p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )art“the practice”in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.

Dear_Editor，
I'm_writing_to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )_tell_you_about_the_discussion_we've_had_about_whether_passengers_who_ride_in_a_car_driven_by_a_drunken_driver_should_be_punished.
The minority of the st ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )udents hold the opinion that punishing the passengers helps to reduce traffic accidents and increase traffic safety.Not to ride in a car driven by a drunken driver is not only a responsible behavior for passengers themselves but also for the drivers and other people on the road.
The majority of the s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tudents，however，disapprove of the idea，stating that it is difficult for common passengers to know whether the driver has been drinking or not.What's more，even if the passenger knows the driver has drunk alcohol and has attempted to persuade the driver not to drive，it is unfair to punish the passenger when the driver does not follow the advice.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
As far as I am concern ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed，punishing passengers as well as the drivers is not only unfair but also hard to carry out.

(2013·韶关高二检测)T ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he water cycle sounds like describing how water move above，on，and through the earth.But in fact，much more water is“in storage”for long periods of time than is actually moving through the cycle.The storehouses for the vast majority of all water on the earth are the oceans，and the oceans supply about 90 percent of the evaporated (蒸发的) water that goes into the water cycle.
Of course, n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )othing involving the water cycle is really permanent，even the amount of water in the oceans.Over the“short term”of hundreds of years，the oceans' volumes (总量) don't change much.But the amount of water in the oceans does change over the long term.For instance，just 1,000 years ago when William of Normandy invaded England，he landed near Hastings，which，though a few miles inland today，was then a coastal town.And a few thousand years ago humans crossed to North America from Asia at the (now underwater) Bering Strait.
During colde ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r climatic periods，more ice caps and glaciers (冰川) form and enough of the global water supply gathers as ice to reduce the amounts in other parts of the water cycle.The reverse (相反的情况) happens during warm periods.During the last ice age，glaciers covered almost one third of the earth's land mass，with the result that the ocean levels were about 400 feet lower than today.
Of course the oceans a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re always in movement.The moon influences daily tides，which make the beach a more interesting place to visit.If you have ever been seasick，then you know how the ocean is never still.You might think that the water in the oceans moves around because of waves，which are driven by winds.But，actually，there are currents and“rivers”in the oceans that move massive amounts of water around the world.www-2-1-cnjy-com
6．Most of the water on the earth is stored in ________.
A．the ice caps and glaciers
B．the oceans
C．the groundwater
D．the atmosphere
7．The author mentions William of Normandy to show ________.
A．the permanent water cycle
B．the difference of Hastings' location
C．the changes in the amount of water in the oceans
D．the influence the oceans have on water cycle
8．According to Paragraph 3，what happens in warm periods
A．The ocean levels are lower than those during colder seasons.
B．One third of the earth is covered by glaciers.
C．The global water supply is not enough.
D．More water joins the water cycle.
9．The water in the oceans moves mainly because of ________.
A．waves driven by winds
B．the influence of the moon
C．currents and“rivers”in the oceans
D．the water cycle of the earth
10．What would the passage probably talk about next 21cnjy.com
A．Some interesting beaches for people to visit.
B．The results of the water movement in the
oceans.
C．The amount of water moving in the water cycle.
D．Examples of currents and“rivers”in the oceans.

Dozens of dolph ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ins swam out of the polluted waters of Haifa harbor on Tuesday.This was the first time that dolphins had visited this crowded Mediterranean port，and researchers were surprised and delighted by the unexpected event.
Between 40 and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )50 of the dolphins appeared in the busy port on Tuesday morning，obviously drawn by the fish rich waters of Haifa Bay.
However，the bay i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s also full of harmful chemicals.Aviad Sheinin，professor of Haifa University's Maritime Studies Department，said he didn't think the dolphins were harmed by the pollution，but that he hoped they would swim back to sea soon.“It seems that they are quite relaxed.They don't seem to be stressed，”he said.

1．B 设空所在句的句意为“她就会尖叫、踢打并躺在地上蹬腿跺脚”。故选B项，其余三项不合题意。
2．A 设空所在句的句意为“那就是为什么她穿着昂贵的游泳衣，独自在沙滩上”。此题关键在于对该空后面的对应词swimsuit的理解。
3．C 设空所在句的句意为“她耍了一个 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )大脾气让父母去买它(游泳衣)”。allow允许；warn警告；get使得；prefer更喜欢。故C项符合语境。
4．B 设空所在句的句意为“他们 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )(父母)回到海滩房，从她耍脾气中恢复好情绪时，他们告诉她……”。与上下文联系起来可知，父母“恢复”好情绪才能劝说她。故选B。
5．D 设空所在句的句意为“你们只是不想让我玩得高兴”。have fun意为“玩得高兴”，故选D。
6．C 老人所说的“你今天 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )不应该游泳”是建议，从倒数第二段最后一句话“Oh，why had she not listened to advice？”也可得出正确答案。
7．A 由前文所讲的她的性格可知，她应该是说“你少管闲事”。mind one's own business意为“少管闲事”，符合语境。
8．B 设空所在句的句意为“‘如果你去那儿，你会后悔的’，那个人在她后面喊”。sorry意为“后悔的”，符合语境。
9．D 设空所在句的句意为“Diane滑进水里，开心地潜水……”。happily意为“开心地”，符合语境。
10．A 设空所在句的句意为“海水打在她的脸上，让她难以呼吸”。根据常识可知正确答案是A项。
11．D 设空所在句的句意为“惊慌中，她开始尖叫”。由前后文可知，她遭遇了危险，应该会大声尖叫。
12．A 设空所在句的句意为“…… ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )她听到一个平静的声音”。由前文可知，老人知道她去游泳了，从后文可知他准备好了船来救她，并且他说希望她已经得到一个教训了，因此老人是有备而来，此刻的声音应该是平静的。
13．B 有人来相救，应该是感到宽慰。relief意为“宽慰，轻松”，符合语境。注意ease意为“轻松，舒适”，不符合语境。
14．C 在有风暴的日子来到海上，应该是危险的。
15．D 由前文提到的老人划船来救她可知，此处应该是把她拖到船的一边。

3．A 细节理解题。由倒数第二段首句“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Hundreds of Haifa residents gathered around Haifa Bay to see...”可知当地的居民们很好奇，都跑去观看。
4．A 细节理解题。由倒数第二段末句“.. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ).and Israel's coast guard was patrolling the area to try to make sure...”可知。
5．C 主旨大意题。本文第一段为事件的总述，由此段可知本文主要说一群海豚出乎意料地游到了被污染的水域，然后又游了出来。
Ⅴ.1.They pro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mised to help me out when I was in trouble. 2.The sailors abandoned themselves to drinking. 3.When we were about to close down the business，the bank came to our rescue. 4.It took him three years to finish the work. 5.The customers fled from the bank when the alarm sounded.
