Ⅳ.阅读理解
Although it’s great to spend vacations seeing the world with family,friends,or a lover,traveling alone can also be completely incredible.A solo adventure has the potential to be life-changing.Here are some reasons you should travel alone at least once.
If you enjoy meeting new friends,here’s your chance;you will likely find some when traveling alone.Since you won’t be focused on talking to anyone you know,you’ll be more likely to strike up conversations with strangers.Meeting people from different backgrounds opens our minds,expands our world,and can inspire us a lot.You may meet some amazing locals or other adventurers like yourself;either way you’re bound to make some new friends during your journey.
A trip alone can ignite your creativity.Spending time alone with an open mind can be exactly what you need for your imagination to soar.Your enthusiasm and passion for life may sky-rocket from your awesome adventure.
When traveling with a partner or a group,every idea can be bounced off someone else.When you travel alone,you will learn to be decisive;you will be making every decision alone.From where to eat,to what time to wake up,to what sights to see,and which airline to use,traveling solo forces you to rely on yours truly.As you realize you can make good choices without help from others,you will likely trust your instincts more,and this new found self-assurance and confidence will be helpful in many areas of your life.
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。作者告诉我们人生至少要有一次机会独自去旅行。并给出了三个理由:一是可以遇见新朋友,二是可以激发你的想象力,三是可以让你变得更有决策能力。
1.Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?
A.You will meet new people.
B.You will light your life fire.
C.You will learn to enjoy being alone.
D.You will learn to be decisive.
答案C
解析细节理解题。A项(遇见新朋友),B项(激发你的想象力),D项(让你变得更有决策能力)分别对应文章第二、三、四段内容,只有C项(你会喜欢上独处)文章中没有提到。故选C项。
2.From the passage,we know that .?
A.traveling alone you can do anything you want to
B.traveling alone,we would learn more things
C.you’ll learn to thrive outside your comfort zone
D.the strangers who we meet are all kind
答案B
解析细节理解题。由文章第二段中的“Meeting people from different backgrounds opens our minds,expands our world,and can inspire us a lot.”可知,遇到不同背景的人可以使我们开放思想,打开视野,让我们产生灵感。也就是说旅行可以让我们学到很多。故选B项。
3.Which of the following is similar to the underlined word in Paragraph Four?
A.Hesitate. B.Independent.
C.Fearless. D.Determined.
答案D
解析词义猜测题。画线单词所在句子句意为:你独自旅行时,你将学会变得更加坚定,你将会独自做每个决定。“decisive”与“making every decision alone(独自做每个决定)”属于同义替换。hesitate“犹豫的”;independent“独立的”;fearless“无畏的,大胆的”;determined“决定的,坚决的”。故选D项。
4.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A.How to travel alone
B.You should travel alone at least once in your life
C.Traveling will make you have more friends
D.Let us enjoying vacations trip
答案B

Ⅵ.概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Is a knife a useful instrument or a dangerous weapon?It depends on how it is used.It’s the same with technology.The greatest inventions are those that affect the mass of people;and one of those greatest inventions are cell phones.They have revolutionized the human existence.This is possible only because they are getting cheaper and cheaper day by day.The technology has made it even easier to give them a longer life.
Undoubtedly,if cell phones are in right hands,no matter how far we are sitting we can talk anytime anywhere! We can watch our favourite TV shows,listen to favourite songs,etc,as cell phones are equipped with all high tech features.In fact,it’s good to the parents as well as children.Parents can every time monitor their children and children are also safe.If anyone is in any kind of danger she or he can call for help immediately.
There are always two sides of a coin.The advanced technology has caused a danger that we keep ignoring.The cell phones have progressed rapidly and at the same time they provide us with more tasks than what we would attempt.When a person is multitasking rather than completing a single task.This causes burden and results in stress.Also cell phones have made terrorist attacks in the world very easy.This has become a global matter of concern.Besides,children spend much of their time in playing games,listening song etc.Instead of going out and playing,they stick to their easy chairs and play games on their phones,which is very harmful to them!
Now mobile phones have come into their lives so much that some have started considering it as an inevitable part of their lives.They are addicted to it like a drug addict and some have gone even worse!Using cellphones while driving has contributed 10% to the road accidents.
We should always remember,that there lives a wise man between the valley of two mountains.Plain and pleasure are a result of modern technology.Are cell phones a useful instrument or a dangerous weapon?The answer lies in our hands!

318国道从上海到西藏樟木,全长5 000多千米。
【句式剖析】该句子主干为:China’s National Highway 318 runs from Shanghai to Zhangmu,Tibet.stretching over 5,000 kilometres为动词-ing形式短语作定语,相当于定语从句which stretches over 5,000 kilometres。
英语分词在句子中作定语时,单个的分词通常放在被修饰的名词之前,分词短语一般置于所修饰的中心词后面。动词-ing形式修饰的是发出该动作的名词(即与名词有主谓关系),分词短语作定语时放在后,并且名词与动词-ing形式之间存有逻辑上的主谓关系。分词短语作定语相当于一个定语从句,修饰前面的名词。

Find Your Adventure at the Space and Aviation (航空) Center
If you’re looking for a unique adventure,the Space and Aviation Centre (SAC) is the place to be.The Centre offers programs designed to challenge and inspire with hands-on tasks and lots of fun.
More than 750,000 have graduated from SAC,with many seeking employment in engineering,aviation,education,medicine and a wide variety of other professions.They come to camp,wanting to know what it is like to be an astronaut or a pilot,and they leave with real-world applications for what they’re studying in the classroom.
For the trainees,the programs also offer a great way to earn merit badges (荣誉徽章).At Space Camp,trainees can earn their Space Exploration badge as they build and fire model rockets,learn about space tasks and try simulated (模拟) flying to space with the crew from all over the world.The Aviation Challenge program gives trainees the chance to earn their Aviation badge.They learn the principles of flight and test their operating skills in the cockpit (驾驶舱) of a variety of flight simulators.Trainees also get a good start on their Wilderness Survival badge as they learn about water- and land-survival through designed tasks and their search and rescue of a “downed” pilot.
With all the programs,teamwork is key as trainees learn the importance of leadership and being part of a bigger task.
All this fun is available for ages 9 to 18.Families can enjoy the experience together,too,with Family Camp programs for families with children as young as 7.
Stay an hour or stay a week — there is something here for everyone!

答案与解析
【语篇解读】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲了研究者发现了一个墓穴及许多陪葬的人,并讲述了其中的故事。
1.discovered 考查时态。描述发生在过去的事情,用一般过去时,所以填discovered。
2.evidence 考查名词。该空作disturb的宾语,用名词,所以填evidence。
3.about 考查固定用法。句意:每个人都很好奇为什么所有这些人同时被杀害。be curious about“对……感到好奇”,该用法是固定用法,所以填about。
4.a 考查冠词。句意:仅仅是一个巧合吗?文中泛指“一个巧合”,coincidence的首字母发音是辅音,所以填不定冠词a。
5.which/that 考查定语从句。“ was made of stone”是一个定语从句,先行词是a tomb,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,所以填which/that。?
6.including 考查介词。句意:里面有许多贵重的东西,包括许多金子和珠宝。用作介词,后面直接接宾语,含有补充说明之意,所以填including。
7.well 考查副词。句意:里面躺着一具保存完好的人的尸体。该空修饰动词preserved,用副词,所以填well。
8.which 考查非限制性定语从句。“ explained why the other bodies were there”是一个非限制性定语从句,关系词在从句中作主语,指代整个主句内容,所以填which。?
9.had died 考查时态。句意:建造陵墓的工人们,在国王死后不久,就被杀害了。表示发生在过去的过去,用过去完成时,所以填had died。
10.them 考查宾格。句意:那是因为他们要保守坟墓的秘密,而且也叫他们陪葬。作make的宾语,用宾格,所以填them。

When I was five years old,my parents would have to pull me home from yet another painful English vacation.I still didn’t want to leave.I want to be away from home.I wanted to go somewhere new and exciting.This became the theme of the next twenty years.I’d spend the whole year counting down to my next holiday,and then as soon as I left I’d begin to dread having to return home,year after year.
Ten years ago,I decided to build a life that I didn’t want to escape from.I knew I wanted to travel in the long term,but I didn’t have a lot of money or savings,and there is no one paying for my adventures.For five years,I did three jobs while studying full-time at university.I didn’t eat out and I didn’t buy anything I didn’t need.I even moved in with my parents.I was able to save $16,000 over those five years,which was enough to keep me on the road for a couple of years.
But what if two years wouldn’t be enough?Before leaving,I began to spend my time in making plans that would allow me to work anywhere that had an Internet connection.At the time,I was studying for a master degree in physics.While studying,I came up with a list of my interests and skills and began researching into a way to do these anywhere.If I could make money from it and if I could do it online,then it was something worth going after.
I created a writing file that would help me to find free writing jobs.I researched English and physics teaching online,and built travel websites to earn income through sales and advertising.Most of these failed,but I didn’t give up.
The work I do has changed over the years and it’s still changing now.Now,I pay my traveling through several different things.I’m the Student Travel Expert for About.com,and a senior writer for Too Many Adapters,a travel technology website.In addition,I will have my first book published this summer.I also offer a travel planning service to help readers prepare for their travels abroad.
To reach this point,where I can cover my expenses and travel full-time,took many,many years of hard work.For me,the freedom makes it worth it.With everything set in place,finally my dreams came true.

C
In 1943,when I was 4,my parents moved from Coeur d’Alene,Idaho,to Fairbanks,Alaska,where adventure was never very far away.
We arrived in the summer,just in time to enjoy the midnight sun.All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom’s vegetable garden.Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off,so she didn’t care much about my bedtime.
Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk.That left me in a mess.I usually managed to find some trouble to get into.Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel.I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldn’t really get a good fire going.The smoke got pretty bad,though,and when I made my exit,a crowd and the police were there to greet me.The policemen took my matches and drove me home.
Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me,and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me.I hadn’t turned 5 yet.
As I entered kindergarten,the serious cold began to set in.Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?
As for Leonhard Seppala,famous as a dog sledder,I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday.At the time I didn’t realize what a superstar he was,but I do remember the ride well.I was wrapped (包裹) heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.
In 1950,we moved back to Coeur d’Alene,but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbours of Alaska.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,在文章中作者回忆了自己童年时候发生的一件件的事情,基本都是作者惹得乱子。那时父亲在铁路部门工作,母亲则是父亲手下的一名职员,他们工作忙碌而无暇顾及作者以至于他有一次点燃了一桶油漆,差点引起火灾,闯下大祸。此外,在文中作者还提到了自己第一次做雪橇的美好回忆。
28.What can be inferred about the author’s family?
A.His father was a cruel man.
B.His parents didn’t love him.
C.His parents used to be very busy.
D.His mother didn’t have any jobs.
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off...”和第三段中的“Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk.That left me in a mess.”可知在铁路部门工作的父母忙于工作无暇顾及作者,由此判断作者的父母非常忙碌,选C项。
29.What happened when the author was 4?
A.He learned to smoke.
B.He was locked in a basement.
C.He was arrested by the police.
D.He nearly caused a fire accident.
答案D
解析细节理解题。在文章第三段和第四段作者讲述了自己小时候玩火差点酿成火灾的事情,然后在第四段末尾提到“I hadn’t turned 5 yet.”当时我还不到五岁,由此可知当作者四岁的时候他的淘气险些酿成火灾,正确答案为D项。
30.Which of the following is true?
A.Leonhard was good at driving dog sleds.
B.The author spent his whole childhood in Alaska.
C.Leonhard often visited the author’s family after 1950.
D.The author suffered a lot while taking the dog sled in Alaska.
答案A
解析细节理解题。从文章末段内容可知作者后来搬家了,故 B项内容错误,而C项中作者提到Leonhard 1950年以后还经常去他家,内容与文章末段提示的信息矛盾,故排除。根据文章第六段中的“As for Leonhard Seppala,famous as a dog sledder...”和“but I do remember the ride well.”可知Leonhard Seppala以驾雪橇的高超技术而著名,而且作者第一次乘坐雪橇也是非常愉快的,故D项错误,选A项。
31.What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A.To look back on his childhood with adventures.
B.To describe the extreme weather of Alaska.
C.To express how much he misses Leonhard.

D
My favourite book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain.Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St.Petersburg,Missouri.He’s a lively and clever young boy,and he finds himself in many exciting adventures.He runs away with his two friends,Huck Finn and Joe,to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days.With Huck he goes looking for treasure,with Becky he gets lost in a cave.And finally,they find a box of gold.
My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead,he decides to go to his own funeral.He hides and watches for a time and then suddenly he appears.Everyone is astonished to see him but they’re also pleased to see him alive.
Tom is the hero of the story,but there are other important characters.Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him.Becky is pretty with fair hair.Joe is Tom’s best friend.And Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.
The theme of the story is about children growing up.It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America.Finally,it talks about freedom,social rules and how people are punished for bad behaviour.
Why do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book?Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876,but it’s still read and loved by people all over the world today.And although it’s only a story,Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19th century,so it sounds very real.Today it’s thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature.Go on—read it! I know you’ll enjoy it,too.
【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了马克·吐温的《汤姆·索亚历险记》这本书的主要内容,这本书主要是关于孩子的成长的。

Five days of sports,between training and matches with Italian players,but also plenty 57. time for sightseeing and free moments to enjoy an ice cream in the sun.?
58. our flight had landed in Milan,we got on our coach and drove for a couple of hours towards our home for the week,the Hotel San Zeno,a 59. (comfort),family-run accommodation,with a splendid view of Lake Garda.Starting the day with a self-led training,enjoying a boat tour on the lake,wandering along the streets of Sirmione for a few hours and heading off 60. (play) a sport — these are just a few 61.(example) of the kind of adventures you could be having!?
The girls and boys on this tour seemed to enjoy 62. (they) thoroughly,especially after winning all of their games! I found myself 63.(cheer) them on like a proud aunt and celebrating afterwards with food,drink and social time,hosted by rugby clubs after matches.On the last day we headed back to 64. airport,but not before stopping in Milan! We 65. (pay) a visit to the San Siro museum and enjoyed a stadium tour before moving on to Milan city centre for an afternoon of shopping.?

63.cheering 考查动词-ing形式。find sb doing sth“发现某人正在做某事”,其中动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。本句中的myself 与cheer在逻辑上是主动关系,所以应用动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。故填cheering。
64.the 考查冠词。airport为可数名词,在本句中表示特指,所以用定冠词the来修饰。故填the。
65.paid 考查一般过去时。and并列连接谓语动词enjoyed和paid。故填paid。

It was a warm and sunny morning at the Central Park Zoo.Mary and her classmates were chatting noisily with excitement as their school bus entered the zoo parking lot.Today, Mary’s class was going on a field trip to the zoo to learn more about the animals and their natural habitats.?
“Before you leave the bus, please make sure you have your partner!” Mrs.Brown announced.To make sure no one got lost in the zoo, each student had a companion.Mary’s companion was named John.John loves animals and was also excited to go to the zoo.But sometimes, John does not follow the rules and gets in trouble.Mary hoped that today, John would follow the rules so they would not get in trouble.?
While the rest of the students got off the bus, Mary and John quickly ran off to explore.They found the exhibits for many different kinds of animals and learned a lot about their natural habitats.They saw the elephants playing and they saw giraffes eating.They saw the polar bears sleeping and the monkeys leaping.Mary asked John:?
“John, what is your favorite animal?”
“I think I like chimpanzees best.They have a lot of energy, just like me! What animal do you like, Mary?”?
“I love polar bears! I think their lifestyle in the Arctic is very interesting.”
A few hours later, Mary and John started to feel hungry.They made their way back to the zoo entrance to eat lunch at the Rainforest Café.The Rainforest Café is both Mary and John’s favorite restaurant because there is an aquarium inside.The restaurant is also famous for its chocolate cake, which Mary ordered for dessert after they had finished their lunch.?
As Mary was finishing her cake, John excused himself to go to the restroom.About ten minutes later, an suddenly alarm began to go off and a voice came over the loudspeaker,
“Attention! Someone has opened the chimpanzee exhibit! Some chimpanzees have escaped!”
People were screaming and starting to run.Mary looked for John, but he was nowhere to be found.

As more and more people ran out of the zoo, Mary began to think where John could be.With a mixture of fear and anxiety, Mary started leaving the restaurant to search for her partner.As she looked around the zoo grounds, it occurred to her that John had told her that chimpanzees were his favorite animals.John wouldn’t have left the restaurant to release the chimpanzees, would he? Oh no! Mary was sure she knew where John had gone.
Paragraph 2:
As Mary raced up the path to the animal exhibits, she stopped.Because she saw John with two chimpanzees held in his arms.He offered a small, guilty smile.“I didn’t mean to let them escape,” he said.“I just wanted to set them free so that they could play outside for a little while!” he continued with excitement.“I took the key from a zookeeper who wasn’t looking.But then, the exhibit lock broke and...” Behind Mary, Mrs.Brown had begun to walk up the path and saw John holding the animals.It was clear from her serious expression that he was in big trouble.?

Gathering at the Sanya Bay at 10:00 am,we made preparations for the diving.With the help of the trainers,we all experienced something unforgettable.What impressed me most was that whoever felt too afraid to go,others would come and offer help.About four hours later,we all accomplished the diving activity.Bathed in sunshine,we enjoyed the fresh air and the beautiful scenery.
The activity benefited us a lot.Not only did it get us close to nature and give us relaxation from heavy school-work,it also promoted the friendship among us.What a wonderful time!

记叙文是最常见、最基本的写作文体,它以真实的社会生活、自然景物为材料,以记人、叙事、状物、写景为主要内容,以叙述、描写或对话为主要表达方式,通过形象叙述来表达思想。这种题材有利于体现学生思维的完整性,符合新课程标准的理念。绝大部分记叙文基本上宜用“三段式”的写法,具体来讲就是:
第一段:开头——事情的背景。介绍事情发生的缘由、开端。
第二段:主体——事情的经过。全文的主要部分,按照事情发展的先后顺序,对事情发生的经过进行详细、完整的阐述,情节要合理。
第三段:结尾——事情的评价。对事情的结果进行评价,表明个人的看法或感受,总结全文。

记叙文的写作主题要鲜明,内容要完整。一般说来,记叙文包含六大要素:when(时间),where(地点),who(人物),what(事件),why(原因),how(结果)。文章要有始有终,确保内容的完整性;情节要合理。按照事情发展的先后顺序,使用恰当的过渡词,使文章连贯、自然、详略得当;用词要恰当,描写事件时,切忌词不达意,影响理解;时态通常用一般过去时。
一、审题定调
该习作要求记录一次潜水活动的过程,是一篇记叙文。因此写作时首先说明一下事情发生的背景,然后按照事情发生的时间顺序描述活动的过程,最后对活动的结果进行阐述,并表达自己对活动的感受。人称以第一人称为主,时态以一般过去时为主。

Unit 5 What an adventure!
You want to have fun and adventure and so you decide to travel somewhere to do it.Sounds like a simple enough thing.And basically it is.But what is adventure①?That is the key here and the answer can be different for different people.
For those who love sports,adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like history.The physical travel types that you can find include such adventure travel as white water rafting②,kayaking or climbing and hiking to some mountains somewhere.Often the goal is to push their body’s limits and test their individual endurance③.For those who less want to climb mountains,adventure travel might mean traveling to Nepal and taking in the local festivals.Wine tasting in Italy is also vacation adventure for the more relaxed traveler who enjoys peace and comfort.
Adventure travel is not necessarily a one-size-fits-all type of vacation.Adventure depends on the person’s physical limits④,how much money the person has and what the person enjoys doing.Going beyond the normal is adventurous for many.If your life is quite busy,then sitting on a beach in the moonlight with your family might be adventure for you.The point is not what you do but that you have a good time and that it is an adventure for you—not for the person next to you.
Do not sit home this year when vacation time rolls around.Go beyond your normal routine⑤ and try something new.Look around you,think beyond your comfort zone⑥ and head out on an adventure vacation.?
词海拾贝
①adventure n.冒险
②rafting n.泛舟;漂流

A surprising number of people have been going on the great adventure of climbing Qomolangma,regardless of high expense,discomfort and danger.It seems that there are many good reasons for this.Some people can get joy and enjoyment from the challenge.For some others,it is a journey to seek the true meaning of life.There comes a scientific reason that risk-taking may be part of human nature,with those with “Type T” personalities more likely to take risks.It should also be noted that there is some link between our desire to seek risks and the benefit from the result.So it is up to you to judge whether the benefits are worth the risks.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
I have traveled to many places—the jungles where the water is unsafe;places with the wildest animals.Friends always ask why I,a middle-aged woman with no athletic talent,go to such places.I never know how to answer—Just I want to put my toes in the mud of adventure.
I stopped traveling nine years ago after I suffered a stroke (中风)caused by a disease,APS.To prevent another stroke,my doctors told me that traveling to remote places without medical help would be risky.A slip on a damp temple step,even a slight traffic accident,would no longer be mere annoyances.
My return to travel after my stroke came in baby steps —a feast in Texas,a visit to my mom in Virginia.They all came back,the freedom,the excitement and the fresh air.
The first real test of my travel courage came nine months after my stroke when I joined my husband in visiting China.After we had toured a temple,Jack wanted to ride down on a toboggan (平底雪橇).Before the stroke it would have seemed like fun for me.But now I stepped back.I feared.My mind screamed warnings of a fall or a crash.Then gathering confidence from nowhere,I lowered myself and took the flying toboggan ride,which marked my adventure travel’s coming back.Since then,I’ve dared to take challenges and have challenged many places.
But I watch my medicine like an eagle.I get my blood tested.I weigh the risks.Then,if I decide it’s okay,like that toboggan ride down the mountain,I just jump in,let go and enjoy the ride.I think I travel for hoping to broaden my world and keep me connected with friends and families.Most of all,saying “yes” to travel is related to my APS.If I let myself be afraid to travel,then my APS will win.

Ⅴ.七选五
Polar exploration is the exploration of the lands around the North and South poles.The poles are the coldest and most remote (遥远的) places on Earth.The North Pole is in the Arctic Ocean,which is covered by a huge,floating ice sheet. 1 ?
Some early polar explorers used dogsleds (狗拉雪橇) or went on foot.This was dangerous,as huge cracks in the ice could swallow dogs,sleds,and people.Other explorers used ships. 2 Later explorers used icebreakers,airplanes,and snowmobiles.?
3 Some people wanted the fame that would come from being the first to reach an unknown land.Others were hoping to discover shorter sailing routes from Europe to Eastern Asia.Still others expected to get rich.More recently,people began exploring the polar areas to gather scientific information.?
The first outsider to reach the Arctic was probably an ancient Greek named Pytheas. 4 By the 1500s the Dutch and the English adventured there in search of trade routes.In 1878—1879 a Swedish explorer sailed from Europe through the Arctic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean,which was called the Northeast Passage.In 1905 the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen became the first to sail through the Northwest Passage.?
People first landed on Antarctica in 1895.British explorers Robert F.Scott and Ernest Henry Shackleton each led expeditions (远征) there in the early 1900s.In 1928 the U.S.explorer Richard E.Byrd set up a base on Antarctica’s coast. 5 During 1957—1958 scientists from several countries set up 50 bases throughout Antarctica for scientific research.?
A.Explorers first saw Antarctica in 1820.
B.He reached Norway or Iceland in about 300 BC.
C.People made early polar explorations for a number of reasons.
D.Many explorers risked their lives trying to achieve these goals.
E.The South Pole is on land,in the frozen continent of Antarctica.
F.This also was dangerous,as floating ice could damage the ships.
G.Meanwhile,many countries became interested in the scientific study of Antarctica.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了极地探险的原因以及人类对北极和南极的探索。
1.E 由该空前对极地和北极的介绍可知,画线处应该是对南极的介绍。
2.F F项中的ships与该空前的ships相呼应,且该项中的“This also was dangerous,as ...”与上文中的“This was dangerous,as ...”结构一致。
3.C 该段主要讲述了早期人们进行极地探险的诸多原因,因此C项符合此处语境。
4.B 由该空前的“The first outsider to reach the Arctic”以及该空后的By the 1500s可知,B项内容“他在公元前300年左右到达挪威或冰岛一带”符合此处语境。
5.G 由该空前的“set up a base on Antarctica’s coast”和该空后的“scientists from several countries set up 50 bases throughout Antarctica for scientific research”可知,G项内容“与此同时,很多国家对南极科考也产生了兴趣”符合此处语境。
