whole和all的区别
whole whole意为“整体的,全部的”,强调完整无缺,不可分割的整体,修饰单数可数名词。有冠词、指示代词或所有格等限定词时,whole放于它们之后,即“限定词 + whole + 名词”
all all意为“整个的,全部的”,强调由个体组成的整体,可修饰不可数名词或可数名词复数。有冠词、指示代词或所有格等限定词修饰时,all放在它们之前,即“all + 限定词 + 名词”
考点2 lead v. 带路;领路
lead意为“带路;领路”,过去式和过去分词均为led,常用结构:
(1)lead sb.to someplace引导某人去某地;
(2)lead sb.to do sth.引导/促使某人做某事;
(3)lead to表示“导致,引起,通向”,这里to是介词,后接名词、动名词或代词。
考点3 voice n. 声音;嗓音
voice, sound与noise的区别
voice 指人说话或唱歌发出的声音,有时也指鸟鸣的声音
sound 泛指自然界中听到的一切声音

Ⅴ.阅读理解
A group of elephants from the forests of Xishuangbanna moved toward the north.The group was firstly made up of 16 elephants.One baby elephant was born during the journey.When they got to Yuanjing, two of these animals drank some alcohol (酒) at a villager’s house and became drunk.They were later reported to have returned to Pu’er, leaving the rest of elephants to continue their journey north.
Wild Asian elephants can walk up to 40 kilometers a day, and an adult eats 150 to 200 kilograms of food each day.They often stay in certain areas, where the temperature is around 30℃.It’s quite uncommon to see them travel such a long way.Then why did this group do so Some believe a lack of food is the main reason.The Asian elephant population in Yunnan has risen from 170 in the 1970s to 300, so their original home might not have enough food for them.Another possibility was that the group had lost their way because their leader is inexperienced.
The wild elephants were dangerous to human lives and property (财产).So people had to feed them tons of food to guide them away from towns and cities.Many police cars and trucks and drones (无人机) were used to watch the elephants.
1.Why did the two elephants return to Pu’er
A.Because they were tired.
B.Because they missed their home.
C.Because they were drunk and couldn’t follow their group.
D.Because they were injured in the journey.
【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据文中“two of these animals drank some alcohol at a villager’s house and became drunk”可以推测它们返回普洱是因为它们喝醉了,没跟上队伍。
2.At last, there were still ______elephants in the group.
A.14 B.15 C.16 D.17
【解析】选B。数字推断题。根据第一段中“这支队伍最初由16头大象组成,中途有一头小象出生”和后面“有两头大象返回普洱”,可推算出最后这支队伍还剩15头大象。
3.Which of the following is TRUE about Asian elephants
A.They enjoy warm weather.
B.It’s normal for them to travel far away from their home.
C.An adult Asian elephant needs to eat 150 to 200 kilograms of food each month.
D.The Asian elephant population in Yunnan has dropped since 1970s.
【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第二段中“They often stay in certain areas, where the temperature is around 30℃.”可知大象喜欢温暖的地方。
4.The underlined word “inexperienced” in Paragraph 2 means “______”.
A.经验丰富的 B.聪明的
C.缺乏经验的 D.有责任心的
【解析】选C。词义猜测题。这里谈到的是大象北上的原因之一,根据句中“lost their way”可以推断有可能是领头大象缺乏经验导致迷路。
5.Where can you read the story
A.In a storybook.
B.In a history book.
C.In a tourist guidebook.
D.In a newspaper.
【解析】选D。推理判断题。本文讲述了来自西双版纳的一群大象向北迁移的故事,应属于新闻时事,故应该出现在报纸上。
