If a snake bites you, take a photo with your mobile phone! It may save your life. This is the surprising 11 of a British cook.
One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from the table, and 12 a snake appeared...and bit him on the hand.
A few days earlier, the snake came to the 13 from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and 14 under the dish.

三 阅读理解（每小题2分，共28分）
A
Imagine the situation. You are driving alone in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device (装置) which uses satellites (卫星) to find the user’s position (位置).It can find your position to within 20 metres. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates (计算) its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate (精确的）.There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
21. According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people ______________.
A. can’t be lost in a new city
B. can’t find their way in different countries
C. can learn about the culture of an unknown place
D. can spend the least time getting to another place
22. We can learn from the passage that ______________.
A. there are three parts to the GPS
B. a GPS can’t be put into a watch
C. a GPS can help you start your car
D. the GPS are becoming more and more expensive
23. The underlined word “They” in paragraph 3 means “___________”.
A. Receivers B. GPS devices
C. Satellites D. Ground stations
24. The passage is mainly about ______________.
A. the history of the GPS
B. the introduction of the GPS
C. the shape of the GPS
D. the three parts of the GPS
25. What can we infer (推断) from the passage
A. All GPS devices have electronic maps.
B. People in many countries will use the GPS for free.
C. The receiver of the GPS contacts at least five of the satellites.
D. The GPS will become more and more common in everyday life.
B

参考答案：
1. C 由three可知，此处用复数形式，thief的复数形式为thieves。
2. C 主语为they，表语应为复数名词，只有C项是正确形式。
3. A there be句型中，be的单复数形式由最靠近它的主语的单复数决定，故选A。
4. A 由前面的“这个男孩口渴了”可推知他想要喝的东西，故选A。
5. A Maths是“数学”，作主语时谓语动词用单数。
6. B It is important for sb. to do sth.为固定句式，意为“对某人来说做某事是重要的”。
7. C on the land“在陆地上”，under the water“在水下”，句意：地球上有很多动物，一些生活在陆地上，一些生活在水下。
8. D stop to do sth.意为“停下来去做某事”，stop doing sth.意为“停止做某事”。由句意“我们必须停止捕杀动物”可知选D。
9. B throw sth. into the river“把某物扔进河里”，符合句意。
10. C provide sb. with sth.为固定短语，意为“给某人提供某物”。
11. B chance“机会”，advice“建议”，excuse“借口”，business“商业”。根据文章最后一段的“So my advice is this: If a snake bites you, pick up your phone.”可知选B。
12. A suddenly“突然”，nearly“几乎”，especially“尤其”，fortunately“幸运地”。根据文章叙述，应该是“突然”一条蛇出现了，咬到了杰克逊先生的手。
13. C 通过前文“...Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen.”可知故事应该是发生在一家饭馆里，所以本题选择restaurant。
14. B 根据文章含义可知应该是这条蛇爬出了箱子然后“藏”在盘子底下，故选择hid（原形hide“隐藏”）。hung（原形hang“悬挂”），jumped（原形jump“跳”），ran（原形run“跑”）均与文意不符。
15. D under“在……下面”，into“进入”，towards“朝”。不能将蛇扔到厨房下面，故排除under；根据前文我们知道这条蛇本来就在厨房内，所以throw...into“扔进（厨房）”和throw...towards“扔向（厨房）”均不符合逻辑。故只有D符合题意，throw it across the kitchen意为“把它从厨房的这一边扔向那一边”。
16. A stay cool意为“保持冷静”，说的是杰克逊先生保持镇静，用手机给蛇拍了一张照片。其他形容词noisy（吵闹的），pleased（满意的），afraid（害怕的）都与文意不符。
17. C 从前文“bit him on the hand”可知“Soon his hand began to ache...（很快他的手开始疼……）”，所以选hand。
18. D 通过“Doctors couldn’t say what was wrong”和“they didn’t know what kind of snake it was”可知“医生说不清楚状况”的原因是“他们不知道这条蛇的种类”，所以选because。
19. B send sth. to...意为“把某物送/寄到……”，根据文章含义，医生把杰克逊先生拍摄的照片发送到伦敦动物园。
20. C 从全文可知杰克逊先生给大家的建议是如果蛇咬了你，给它拍照。所以本题应用it（蛇）的形容词性物主代词its。
21. A 由第一、二段及最后一段最后一句Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.可知，GPS可以帮助人们定位，以避免迷路。故选A。
22. A 由第三段第一句There are three parts to the Global Positioning System.可知，GPS系统包括三部分，故A项为正确答案。由第二段中It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone.可知B项错误；由第一段最后一句A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.可知C项错误；由最后一段第二句They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate.可知D项错误。
23. D 画线单词所在的句子和上面两句介绍的是GPS的第三部分——地面监测站，它们分布在世界各地，负责控制卫星，确保卫星运行良好。由此可知此处they指的是地面监测站。
24. B 通读全文可知，本文主要是对GPS的介绍。
25. D 由第二段中Some of these devices have electronic maps...可知，有些装置有电子地图，并不是所有的装置都有电子地图，故A项错误；B项意为“许多国家的人将免费使用GPS”，这在文中并未提到，故B项错误；由第三段中The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites...可知C项错误；由最后一段第一句Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile.可知D项正确。
26. C 由第一段信息中“About 60 people were hurt...”可知，大约有60人在火车相撞事故中受伤。
27. C 由第二段信息中“Over 180,000 tourists visited the place of great interest from April 29 to May 1, during the three day holiday.”可知，在“五一”假期中许多人参观泰山。
28. B 由第三段信息可知，汶川地震中失去女儿和腿的成都舞蹈教师廖智，在震后到雅安当起了志愿者。
29. D 由第四段信息中的最后一句“The competition hoped to encourage the farmers to grow better tomatoes.”可知，比赛的目的是鼓励农民种出更好的西红柿。
30. A 由Do you know fish come out of eggs when they are born 可推知鱼在出生前是在卵中。
31. D 由After the little fish comes out of the egg, it eats the food in the egg.可知选D。
32. A 由When it is big, it leaves the egg. It swims in the water.可知答案。
33. C 由Its ears are hidden(藏在) in the head.可知选C。

One possible version：
With the global warming getting worse, more people choose to live a low carbon life for the purpose of reducing greenhouse gases.
We’d better save much water and paper and electricity. We should use less carbon and oil. It’s important to turn off the lights and computers when you leave the room. We should take our own bags instead of using plastic bags from the supermarket. We can buy few clothes which are unnecessary. We shouldn’t buy or use one off cups or chopsticks or bowls. It’s good for us to walk or take bikes to school instead of taking cars. We can also plant more trees.
Let’s take action and be low carbon people!
