Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Sharks use their good sense of smell to search for prey(猎物)．But a new study shows that the rising levels of carbon dioxide in the ocean could reduce sharks' ability to find food.It's bad news for a healthy ocean.Sharks are top predators (掠食动物) and are like the ocean's weed controllers.
Dixson works at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts.Her earlier work has shown that clown fish in acidifying (酸化的) water act strangely.“We want to expand this research to sharks because we know how important it is for sharks to find their food through their sense of smell，” said Dixson.
Her team started by placing sharks in each of three different pools for five days.Each pool had a different level of carbon dioxide in it.The first had the same amount as today's ocean water.The second had a level of carbon dioxide that scientists expect to reach by 2050.The third pool had the highest level of carbon dioxide that could develop by the year 2100.
Sharks weren't allowed to eat any food while in the pools.This made sure that they would be hungry.Then，Dixson released the sharks—one at a time—into a pool with two side-by-side streams of flowing water.In one stream，the researchers pumped water，in which a dead squid had been overnight.This water smelled strongly of the squid.The other stream contained ocean water with no scent(气味)．Because each stream flowed at the same rate and in the same direction，the squid smell stayed in its stream.The sharks could choose to swim in either stream.
Sharks that had been swimming for five days in pools of regular ocean water spent more than 60 percent of their time in the squid-scented stream.The same was true for sharks that had been in water with the carbon dioxide level that could develop by the year 2050.But sharks exposed to the highest level of carbon dioxide spent just 15 percent of their time in the squid-scented stream.
【语篇解读】 研究发现，海洋里二氧化碳的浓度过高会影响鲨鱼的嗅觉，给它们带来不好的影响。
1．Why did the writer mention the sharks' smell at the beginning of the passage?
A．Because the writer appreciates their ability to find food.
B．Because the writer considers them dangerous to human beings.
C．Because the writer intends to show how to control weed in the ocean.
D．Because the writer worries about the sharks in the ocean.
解析：选D 推理判断题。作者在第一段中提到鲨鱼的嗅觉，主要是引出主题，即：海洋环境的改变会对鲨鱼的觅食能力造成危害。因此可推知作者担心生活在海洋中的鲨鱼。
2．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A．What the ocean in the future will be like.
B．Who helped Dixson conduct the study.
C．What kinds of pools were used during the study.
D．What the levels of carbon dioxide will be in the ocean in the future.
解析：选C 主旨大意题。根据第三段的内容可知，本段主要是讲Dixson和她的团队把鲨鱼放在哪些池子里做实验。
3．The researchers pumped water where a dead squid had been overnight to ．
A．help the sharks look for food
B．test the sharks' sense of smell
C．prove that sharks like eating squids
D．explain why carbon dioxide in the ocean affects sharks
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第四段的内容可知，研究人员往水池里放了带鱿鱼味的水，其目的是测试鲨鱼在特定的环境下能否闻到那种气味，故选B。
4．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggest?
A．Sharks like the squid-scented stream better.
B．Sharks like the stream with the high level of carbon dioxide.
C．Sharks spent 15% of their time in the squid-scented stream.
D．The high level of carbon dioxide can affect the sharks' ability to smell.
解析：选D 推理判断题。画线句子的意思是“但是，曾置身于最高浓度的二氧化碳中的鲨鱼只在有鱿鱼味的水中花费了仅仅15%的时间”。由此可知，Dixson团队的实验发现，鲨鱼的嗅觉的确受到二氧化碳浓度的影响。

Imagine a mass of floating (漂浮) waste is two times the size of the state of Texas.Texas has a land area of more than 678，000 square kilometers.So it might be difficult to imagine anything twice as big.
All together，this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.It weighs about 3，500，000 tons.The waste includes bags，bottles and containers—plastic products of all kinds.
The eastern part of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is about 1，600 kilometers west of California.The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands and east of Japan.The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert，with light winds and slow moving water currents.The water moves so slow that garbage from all over the world collects there.
In recent years，there have been growing concerns about the floating garbage and its effect on sea creatures and human health.Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped(被困住) in the floating waste，resulting in death or injury.Even more die from a lack of food after swallowing pieces of plastic.The garbage can also make animals feel full，diminishing their desire to eat or drink.
The floating garbage also can have harmful effects on people.There is an increased threat of infection (感染) of disease from polluted waste，and from eating fish that swallowed waste.Divers can also get trapped in the plastic.
Its existence first gained public attention in 1997.That was when racing boat captain and oceanographer Charles Moore and his crew sailed into the garbage while returning from a racing event.Five years earlier，another oceanographer learnt of the trash after a shipment of rubber duckies got lost at sea.Many of those toys are now part of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。介绍了巨大的北太平洋垃圾带对海洋生物和人类造成的极大的危害。
5．The first paragraph is written to ．
A．lead in the topic of the text
B．inspire readers' imagination

D．talk about reasons for water pollution
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据第一段内容及第二段中的“All together，this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.”可知，第一段就是为了引出巨大的太平洋垃圾带这一话题。
6．What does the underlined word “diminishing” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．Increasing. B．Determining.
C．Weakening. D．Reserving.
解析：选C 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“The garbage can also make animals feel full”可知，垃圾让海洋动物感觉吃饱了，从而削弱了它们进食和饮水的欲望，由此可知画线词词义为“削弱；减少”。
7．What can we infer about the floating garbage according to the text?
A．It gives rise to various diseases.
B．It does great harm to sea animals.
C．Causes of it still remain unknown.
D．Efforts to clear it have been made.
解析：选B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped(被困住) in the floating waste，resulting in death or injury...drink.”可知，漂浮的垃圾对海洋动物有极大的危害。
8．What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To warn people about dangers of diving in the ocean.
B．To explore the future of the North Pacific Ocean.
C．To call on people to protect the ocean environment.
D．To display some facts about floating waste.
解析：选D 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，巨大的太平洋垃圾带对海洋动物和人类都造成了极大的危害，作者主要是向读者介绍有关太平洋垃圾带的一些事实。

(2019·全国卷Ⅰ)
Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?
We all grew up hearing people tell us to“go out and get some fresh air.” 1 According to recent studies, the answer is a big YES, if the air quality in your camping area is good.
2 If the air you're breathing is clean—which it would be if you're away from the smog of cities—then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles (肌肉) and your brain.
Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing (治愈)． 3 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood (情绪). Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 4 It gives us a great feeling of peace.
5 While the sun's rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D． To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin—put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that's plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day's worth of Vitamin D．
A．Fresh air cleans our lungs.
B．So what are you waiting for?
C．Being in nature refreshes us.
D．Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.
E．But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?
F．Just as importantly, we tend to associate fresh air with health care.
G．All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。介绍了新鲜空气对身体的保健作用。
1．解析：选E 上句提到人们告诉我们应出去呼吸新鲜空气，下句的关键信息“the answer is a big YES”是对某个问题作出的回答，由此可判断空处应是一个一般疑问句，故E项“But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said？”符合语境。
2．解析：选A 本段陈述了呼吸洁净的室外空气使身体受益，因此A项“新鲜空气清洁我们的肺”符合语境。
3．解析：选G 上句提到人们开始研究自然界和治愈之间的联系，G项“在全国范围内，康复中心已经开始建设康复花园”是对上句的延伸，且下句中的“these places”指代的就是G项中的“Healing Gardens”。我们可以从意义和词语指代两方面的暗示来解题。
4．解析：选C 前文提到“Greenery is good for us.”，C项与前文在意义上构成递进关系，解释了绿色植物为人体带来益处。且与下句“It gives us a great feeling of peace.”意思上承接。
5．解析：选D 本段陈述了阳光对人体的好处，因此段落主题应为D项“呼吸新鲜空气的另一个附带好处是阳光”。
Ⅱ.完形填空
(2019·全国卷Ⅰ)

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When you eat fish，you probably eat it off a plate，using a fork.Well，the dolphins in Shark Bay，Australia，eat their fish from conch (海螺) shells!
Scientists have found some of these bottlenose dolphins (宽吻海豚) using their large beaks to trap fish in shells underwater.Then，carrying the shells to the surface，they shake out the fish into their mouths and eat them.Clearly，using the conch shells allows the dolphins to catch more fish than they would be able to without such a tool.The technique has been called “conching”．
Researchers noticed dolphins engaging in the behavior a handful of times from 2007 to 2009.Then this dolphin trend seemed to become popular.
Simon Allen，a scientist，was surprised to see the conching technique spreading.“In the last four months alone，the research team have seen and photographed the behavior no less than six times，possibly even seven，” he said in a press release.He thinks the dolplins may be learning conching from one another.
Dolphins are known to be highly intelligent.The size of their brain is large in proportion (比例) to their body size.Compared with other animals，they have highly developed communication and social skills.This species of dolphin also uses other tools.They will break off pieces of sponges that grow in the ocean，for example，and use them to cover their beaks.This allows them to search for food on the ocean floor without hurting their noses.
Scientists are going to keep trying to catch the dolphins in the act of conching.They hope to see evidence of the dolphins teaching one another the technique.They also want to know how the dolphins get fish in the conch shell.Do they push the fish into the shell with their beaks？Or do they chase the fish into the shell before carrying them up to eat?
However they do it，Allen believes these dolphins to be particularly clever.“I wouldn't be too surprised to find such cunning and devilish ploys being adopted by Shark Bay's bottlenose dolphins，” he said in a statement.
【语篇解读】 宽吻海豚是一种非常聪明的海洋生物，它可以把海螺壳作为工具来捉住更多的鱼。
1．The author develops the first paragraph by ．
A．telling a story B．making a comparison
C．listing some facts D．offering an explanation
解析：选B 推理判断题。文章第一段把人吃鱼的情形和海豚吃鱼的情形进行了比较，所以选B。

A．dolphins eat fish together with shells
B．dolphins attract fish with the conch shells
C．dolphins use shells to catch fish for food
D．dolphins catch fish with their beaks
解析：选C 细节理解题。通读第二段内容可知，“conching”指的是宽吻海豚利用海螺壳捕鱼这一技术。故选C。
3．According to Allen，the conching technique ．
A．is spreading among sea animals quickly
B．has just been noticed at most 7 times
C．is sure to be learnt from one another
D．is becoming popular with dolphins
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Then this dolphin trend seemed to become popular.”和第四段中的“the conching technique spreading”可知，这种技巧正在海豚中流行起来。
4．What might be the most suitable title for the passage?
A．Dolphins play a trick on each other
B．Dolphins use shells as tools to catch food
C．Dolphins depend on tools to find food
D．Dolphins are the cleverest sea creature

A．The tiniest fish. B．The prettiest fish.
C．Polar bears. D．The noisiest fish.
解析：选C 推理判断题。由题干中的“the Virtual Reality Voyage”可以定位到文章此标题下的内容。“the tiniest fish”，“the prettiest fish”和“the noisiest fish”都在此处提到了，唯独C项“polar bears”不在此展区，而是在Polar World展区。
7．Where is the passage most probably taken from?
A．A travel journal. B．An amazing novel.
C．A scientific report. D．A social survey.
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据文章开头的The Best Place to See Sea Creatures以及最后一段提到的折扣和开放时间可知，这是在邀请读者来这里游览，所以最有可能摘自旅游日志，而不会摘自小说、科学报告或社会调查。故选A。
